[3.25] Ice Dancing Queen - Icestorm/Cyclone/CI - Viable For Everything
" You're very early in the build. With Dreamer wheel and the top Mana Mastery wheel, you should have your mana regen in no time once you got some intelligence going. Buy two corrupted Heup of all with %int as an implicit. It's 10C that will give you 12% int, 50 to all attributes, 40% all resistances. They will last you for a long time. My next buy is usually Astramentis to stop worrying about str/dex completely. |
|
" You can swap attributes mastery from 5% all attributes to int per mastery allocated. You don't need the extra str/dex and it gives you more int. Get Unnerve on hit on your gloves' implicits. Get a good Watcher's Eye. It can make a huge difference. Your rings are a problem. If you can't afford synth rings yet, buy two Heup of all with int implicit. From what I get from your PoB, you'd get 15-20% more damage instantly for 10C. You can transition to synth rings later on. In your configs, you forgot to put 4 intensity stages. Also, if you leave the amount of Power charges blank, it automatically gives you your max. Also, always check "guardian/pinnacle boss" for more accurate DPS. That puts you at 264570 average hit. Two of your flasks aren't 20% quality. Try to get more intelligence wherever you can on gear. Some of your pieces could be min-maxed more, though it often means starting over. You could get an Enlighten 4 to change Charisma annoint to Whispers of Doom. Last edited by WinterHiko#1542 on Sep 23, 2023, 10:10:43 AM

Just wanted to thank the author for such a detailed and clear guide! Even with the unfinished skill tree at lvl 91, lacking gems and 1 proper ring I managed to kill uber elder on the first try. Killed them for the 1st time in 600h btw.

Hi everyone i need some help. I have bought a helmet but when i try to use a hunters exalt on it in craft of exile i get random influx mods. The guide says its guaranteed %int, am i missing something or has this changed?

" i change implicit on gloves, that's my best : https://pastebin.com/0afA5xQj where i can spend 2 cents more for update? inc int implicit rings? better helm? btw is one of the complete build tried since 2016!! (fast map and bosskiller in one build is a dream) p.s. my only doubt is the lvl 15/0 cwc, pob say that 17 trigger moar and awa cwc boost dps (2.53 lvl 15 - 3.0 awa cwc) but i think che trigger is for cyclone and not for icestorm...or i miss something in math section?

" It's not at the right item level. As the ilvl rises, more mods get added to the pool, which is why the gearing section gives you a range to stay in to guarantee %int. |
|
" Ice Storm creates storms that hit every 0.2 seconds. When you cast your sixth storm, the first one dissapear. If it dissapears just before it hits again, you lose a hit. CwC triggers more often at higher levels and in Awakened form, but since we have a max number of storms, it's not a simple multiplier like with other skills. The lvl 15 math comes from optimizing the timing of the first storm dissapearing. Last edited by WinterHiko#1542 on Sep 24, 2023, 7:38:26 AM

Hey all! Having an absolute blast with this build - so much fun!
I'm currently testing out beyond mapping (with rusted scarabs to increase pack size). Quite fun seeing lots of monsters on screen + knowing I won't die as long as nothing 1-shots me. Any other fun mapping strategies you guys have tried? Happy to learn/try! Also seeking for gear thoughts - I have a few divs to spend, but the most obvious upgrade I see now is the 10+div %int rings. Is there anything in between I can still spend on, or should I save up? :P |

" It's indeed your next logical upgrade. You could quality Awakened Cold Pen and hit it with a vaal orb to see if it upgrades. You never know. You could also upgrade your gloves' implicit to 4% dmg per int or 5% while in the presence of a unique for a few div. EDIT : getting 6% attributes on your body armour would also be great (crafted suffix from Hillock). I'm currently running Elderslayer invitations with Essence and Delirium. It's kind of the opposite of your current strategy, I just blast through the map and rush the boss. If you ever need a change of pace you could try it.

I'm pretty far along in the build (I think anyway) and would like to increase my single target DPS as I'm trying to cut down the time it currently takes me to do ubers which is what im farming atm.
Having a bit of trouble figuring out where my biggest upgrades should go. I figure if I'm not mapping and using cyclone I can dump the blight boots for %int boots or is the extra anoint key to the build? I have ~100div to spend atm with another 100 on the way. Just finding it a bit tricky ramping up dmg with some of the more mobile bosses. pob so far - https://pobb.in/ig1p4yk0hyyk I know I can upgrade gems to 21/20 etc but they are all 1% increases and I figure there are bigger items I could make.
