[3.9?] Sidefx Frost Blades - Hyped for Support +

Some questions:

1. I wonder if it isn´t worth to go for "Damage for full life support" instead of Ruthless. Especially for Mapping your HO Tooltip goes up for like 30k dps. So you make more initially damage to gain your lifepool full. Sounds like a good "circle" for me. It works great for me, at least for faster mapping. Didn´t tested it to difficult bosses. Are there some thoughts about it?

2. I dont see the point to go for Kaom´s roots over the Darkray´s. With the Kaom´s you have to go for Iron Reflexes, which i think the Char is extremely squishy even with 6k life. With Darkrays you hold your evasion, you can go for additional dodge and even dodge spell ("Acrobatics" and "Phase Acrobatics" in passives).

3. Furthermore you can get more frenzy´s and even with a amulet (Carnage Heart) you can get 10 frenzy´s at total. That are 20% dodge and 50% MovementSpeed buff only from the Darkray boots and additional Lifeleech and Damage from the amulet.

Any thoughts?

Anyone else had trouble with dps? What to improve/change to get more? T14+ maps are not great farming


- % Elem dmg on your rings (Opal)
- Cold and Attack damage on your rings
- Critical on your rings
- % Elem dmg on your belt
- 25 or 40% on Frostblades for your helmet


are you joking? I don't answer for general help. Have you looked my gear? My rings are defensive i can't have all you mentioned. Still got all other, dps is VERY low compared to others. Why is that?
I notice some people use Maim, so I tested it out on PoB and Maim instead of Cold Pen is higher dps avg and total vs trash or boss, even setting the mobs cold resist to 40 Maim comes out ahead of Cold Pen, is there any reason to use cold pen > maim?

What is your problem dude with your aggressive "are you joking" ? You ask a question, I just answer.

Where do you think you are going to get your DPS from ? Well, let's look at your gear then... like if I haven't played this build since the beginning of the league OR if I didn't checked it out before answering :

- ToA : Mandatory Unique. Nothing to see here unless you switch
- Shaper's touch : Unique, pretty great choice. Unique tho, you can't improve DPS with that unless you switch
- Kaom's roots : Mandatory Unique, again, nothing to improve here unless you switch
- Belt : Pretty good, still room for improvement if you got ton of currencies or luck
- Body armour : Nice item, defensive tho

So, what is the rest... umh, amulet, a Bisco. I think I don't have to detail what is wrong here if your goal is to get DPS.

And well the rings... a bit of DPS and a lot of defense.

Where do you think you can get more DPS with you current gear ? Rings and Amulet

If you don't like the answer because you would have to change the structure of your gear, it doesn't make it less true.

Rings and Amulets can get you to an insane amount of damage. And if you "compare to the others", you can just see that most of them have really really insane rings, belts or amulets.

So thank you for being less rude next time, and think twice when you want an answer to a question.
Should i take out the point from iron reflexes and put it somewhere else or should i keep it there? Also what gear should i change, at the moment i'm trying to get a 6 linked belly with 40% life but i'm using a 5 linked til i'll get there but i don't know what should i change after?rings maybe?
And i'm also using a starkonja for things like lab and atziri and abyssus for the rest is that ok?

Can someone please help me out, I'm lvl 86 and am struggling. I've followed a couple different versions of this build within this guide, and I feel like my skill tree is off. I removed a frenzy charge, for more hp, and reach 4.9k. I know my rings need life but only have like 25c.

Damage seems good, but one wrong move and I'm dead. I can only manage some tier 11, 12 maps at best. Thanks

Sadly all versions of this build will be that way. Its high risk high reward style. it rewards great play.

i tried some other version of this build, using 400 pdps claws,shield and some fair good steel ring, pathfinder , however the highest dps with all buffed is 300K, so I stop leveling ...

A question!

Ascendancy you wrote - Raider: Rapid Assault - Avatar of Chase - Way of the Poacher - Avatar of the Slaughter

But at the 115 points/In the final tree you take diffrent Ascendancy nodes? Oo
what to fallow then?<3

Hi I just currently rerolled over to this build and am in absolute love with it. I invested quite a bit of money in to the build and the dps is really amazing. The only issues I'm having is positioning. I find myself getting killed randomly and it almost feels like there is nothing I can do about it. My life is quite low and that is in part due to being lvl 79. Is there any tips or suggestions you would have for me? Maybe on positioning or optimizing my stats some more? Thanks so much for the exciting build!
