Cold Chronomancer Megathread. All content cleared. Leveling guide added. Low-budget build added.

Yep. Just tested. No more comet coming down at all with wall only. Scared to go on a map. It looks like I have no comet at all

That is a huge bummer. Againsr boss, most if not all energy comes from the wall.
It is specifically target against frost mage. Not cool. Stormweaver will be even more dominating. I don’t think we can do a build like Stormweaver with chrono.

Wall can also crit with explosion.

Just tested it. Well, not a kick-starter, but still works well. Big mobs still break the wall and do wall-crits. If you place the wall on the head of small mobs and break it, also fine. Since the source of CoC is not the fact that wall was broken, but wall critted nearest wall+mobs, still feels fine if it damages mobs.

Tried T4 Xesht just now, haven't changed my chrono's gear in a while with about 15~ divs spent on it:

CoC energy is mostly from the frost wall explosions critting?

I did a quick trial of chaos. It seeks that against the bosses it doesn’t change much. However against mob, comet trigger almost never. Well explosion does most damages

The most annoying for me is that it seems the game is stuck in 16:9 ratio. I use 16:10 and it was matching any window before. Maybe just a bug that they will fix

I literally did a speed run through suk him up aka sekhema before bed when I found out about the CoC frostwall fix. Things didn't feel too different on my end. However I feel that in breaches where we're getting swarmed the nerf hammer will be felt.

Tested the build post-patch; i'm using nova, and things are actually, better? less comet on mobs means that my mana wont get sucked dry quickly, and on boss, the performance is still the same (dried my mana pool).

If you rely on self-crit-wall-breaking-comet to clear mobs, it might impact you, but so far so good.

My nova is at 73K btw, so most mobs melt.

Do you mind posting your pob? I tried nova but my damage with it was way too low for some reason. Lot of trouble breaking walls.

0.1.1c, as Im low-med budget, it really neft in CoC comet. It not call comet in magic mob.
Im thinking to go back CoF or CoS Frostwall for QoL as it not proc trigger anymore (still manual cast on boss).

For rare and unique boss, I didnot think it difference as my cri from EoW and Frostbolt still enough to empty my mana and kill in a sec.

As in term of damage or critical still same but it just not proc comet anymore.

btw, I cannot move on Morior as it is main ele res. How do you manage res to meet 75% res w/o Morior? just boots, helm, 1 ring still not enough for me.
