(RIP)Frostbolt/Eye of Winter, Coldsnap, Cast on freeze/Cast on Crit comet Sorceress
" I chose the 25% mana regen. Once you get cast on freeze with comet going your mana gets chunked like crazy. So I took that and went with several mana regen and max mana nodes in the passive tree. |

How did you end up getting more than 30 spirit using the staff? Edit: looks like i need to wait until Act 3.

" Frost wall is not used for AOE, its used for the same purpose you're using cold snap for. Given that it's superior to cold snap for the same use cases, there's no need to use cold snap at all. You're wasting unleash which is highly valuable. Last edited by Alpha23512#3159 on Dec 9, 2024, 10:49:58 AM

" You claimed frost wall was better in AoE and damage so I assumed you were talking about using it for AoE situations, however I said that I do use frost wall for its incredible burst damage and utility. The way I’m currently using it and my current build has been blasting this game with no issues. Making some kind of hard swap to use frost wall as a bursting skill on normal mobs would require me to hard swap other things to detonate the frost wall. It is much easier and faster to just cold snap on Frostbolt while moving. Cold Snap also does very good damage! It has very high damage values and unleash on it works great with my frostbolt setup. This game is new and I’m experimenting with lots of things just like everyone else and I’m sharing my thoughts and the ideas I’ve come up with for other in the event they might be struggling while I’ve been blasting through the game. Nothing is concrete and I’m not claiming what I’m doing is “right” or the strongest. While I appreciate the input, I know just how strong Frost Wall is and I’m making great use of it! I’m also making great use of cold snap to clear quickly and stay on the move so I will continue to do so! Last edited by KyleMasc#7189 on Dec 9, 2024, 1:34:17 PM

can cast on freeze proc both cold snap and comet?
|
|
On skilltree there is "Path of Winter", "Cold Damage"and "Elemental Damage" not on this position where u skilled it. can u update skilltree?
|
|
" It's there! I just double checked because I was confused but I have it talented in my own skill tree. It's just above the Sorceress starting nodes. |
|
" It absolutely can! I use cold snap in the way I do so that I can take advantage of the burst from Unleash and the 3 frostbolts I can shoot out. Unfortunately cast on freeze cannot proc the extra casts from unleash, that's one of the reasons I kept cold snap off of it. |
|
this might be dumb but unleash on frost bolt seems to really cause a lot more frozen enemies triggering cast on freeze much more
so i basically just fire a frost wall, frost bolts and then when the coldsnap/comet hits the frost wall it is just crazy dmg |
|
if and when comet gets nerfed whats the future of the build? do you keep playing cold or go lighting arch mage
