Does Ice Bite worth getting Q20? It seems like they're dead before it freeze.

Well, its not a must but surely better to have it 20q for chance to deal more damage (mostly against magic packs / rare mobs)

Whatever happened to going Dual Wield? I played a DW crit Ice Nova char in the awakening closed beta, was pretty awesome due to all the cast speed you can get.
I believe that the OP Pledge beats this, but for a "Budget" version it may still be better to go DW? Have you explored this?

cheers mate

changed my setup, now i have no problem with my mana even with all the empower..

helm and ring now provide me mana, and ring gives extra mana regeneration.

thanks for helping out=)

Just FYI for those who don't have the armor, don't use Cloak of Defiance for substitution. When you take damage, it burns your mana causing you to run out mana and can't warp away.

I just found out the hard way myself, LOL

Yep, I have tried Mind over matter node from passive tree myself.
Didn't work out so well :)

@therealjcool I havent' tried this build as DW so can't really comment on that.

You could go dual wield using Divinarius for a lot of crit and AoE, Rime Gaze to get an easy 5L and have your lightning warp setup in the chest as usual. You could move ice nova to your chest if you have a 6L but you sacrifice a 5L lightning warp setup. Dual wielding can lead to greater crit chance and multiplier, but you miss out on the 7L and mana. Certainly a nice option on a budget while you save for a PoH.

probably might work but as i said, haven't tried it

I've recently switched from iamdeep version to your phase 2, everything works fine but I lack some mana (non reserved 200) and life.

Any suggestion on tree or build?







Thanks,

Euro

hey Euro,
since I dont know how much STR and DEX you need from your current gear I cant tell u exactly wat to change, but I suggest:

First of all you need enlighten linked to your auras in helmet. Look at the links I suggested in the guide. they are different from what you did. This will give u important extra mana.

try to get mana and/or mana regen on at least 2 out of 3 jewelry (ring + amulet or 2 rings).
you seem to craft energy shield which isn't needed in our build since we aren't ES based, so get either mana or something else.

regardless, your Storm Hold Diamond Ring should be replaced, too low life. for the 2nd ring as I said get something else instead of energy shield.

for Amulet, get crit chance and multiplier (or for start, at least one of them) + mana and/or mana regen (mana is more recommended than mana regen) + high life (60+) + the ressistences you need. If you can't seem to find an amulet that has all that AND the res you need, get more res on other gear.

Generally I suggest NOT getting any res on amulet and get it from other gear (helmet, gloves and belt) but in ur condition its fine for now until you keep progressing.

Note that you can EASILY find a belt with dual/tri res + high life (80+) for quite decent prices so better not use a belt with only 1 res.

Also, your ice nova should be 20q for bigger AoE range so I suggest buying a new one.
Same goes for your other gems, get them 20q for good dps boost.
And as i said, check your links again (why do you need life gain on hit on boots?)


good luck!

Thanks for your prompt answer!!

I'll try to apply your suggestions

Temporary there, because if i put my other empower i run out of mana ;)
