[3.6] The Blizz Sorc - Icestorm/Winter Orb CI Occultist - Viable For Everything
" Exactly, i changed tree a little too, to have about 40% increase mana regen (previously i completely forgot that you can get mana regen on the tree, instead of gear lol). And now i don't have a problem either. But before those regeneration nodes it was awful. Last edited by Med1umentor on Dec 18, 2018, 3:09:49 PM

How would Aspect of the Spider fair compared to Arctic armour? Is the extra damage worth it in a bossing situation?
| |
" I wanted to say that it's not worth it without a chest armour, but now that i actually read it through, i get that it can inflict up to 3 webs, that will be "15% damage taken" for enemy, as multiplier. So i'm not sure now, but it will require good gear with that aspect, which will be pretty pricey probably. |

Nice to see u buildin up a witch WI again!
i couldnt stand the animations of the other classes. As soon i got lvl 39 i switched fully to CI with WI and WO and i have to admit: I really like the cold theme with all those shatters, chilling and freezing !! Since im playing hc only i really like the defence with this build... Kinda looking forward to get to maps. | |
" Yes, quite literally in that gem order. Gems linked to CWDT trigger by their proximity to CWDT in the link. You must trigger BR first to get the degen and then interrupt that degen with IC. The other two Arakaali upgrades don't do anything: you are already immune to shock and chaos. | |
" AA is a life saver. 13% LESS damage from phys and fire hits is a LOT. Getting hit for less is much more important than getting hit slower. This version already has a powerful chill. Also, if AA + Bonechill works out well, AA becomes your counter-offensive ability too. I would not trade that for Aspect of the Spider. | |
" Just remember not to mess with the Syndicate until lv 70-ish. I thought maybe this build was too weak against those guys, but then I saw 3424562 clips of every PoE streamer getting 1-shot by them and stopped doubting this build's defenses :) There must be a reason why GGG is nerfing the Syndicate in the next patch. After lv 70 they become no different from red beasts though. One of the Syndicate guys gave me a T15 corrupted map with a ton of mods at lv 80, I went in there just to see how bad that would be and got 1-shot by Haku with 6k ES. Nothing wrong with that, should have better gear by the time you get to T15. I still killed that Haku, and the boss (Shavronne) was a joke. Last edited by Kelvynn on Dec 18, 2018, 4:52:49 PM

" Yeah i skip them all after several deaths in hc oO im quite surprise no one else is lvling as CI like in your old tri curse build 2.6... i adapted it and since then i never lvld as a life char.. instant CI at lvl39 | |

Just passing by to say this is an awesome build.
First time trying CI and IS I must say I love it. I was unsure about how fast this could clear maps, but surprisingly enough it is above average. Also to my surprise damage on boss situations and syndicate is great. So far rocking with only 1450 Int and 8.5K ES on lvl 94, having spent at most 1~2 exalt in gear, certainly a very inexpensive build. The only real con I think is that IS may get laggy at times, it's certainly a skill that need some improvements in terms of draining computer hardware. Edit: BTW, after 4 characters (one for each past 4 leagues), this is the first time I was able to solo clear hall of the grandmasters, deathless. I was getting pissed off with this map, characters were able to do almost all the content, but not this cr4p. Thanks for the build Last edited by glaucohoho on Dec 18, 2018, 9:41:12 PM

So could someone give me some advice on my build so far. trying to see what would give me the most benefit. Still a bit squishy and low on life.
