[3.20] Ice Dancing Queen - Icestorm/Cyclone/CI - Viable For Everything

I keep coming back to this build is it good at clearing maps and the bosses? What type of investment would I need?

I LOVE THIS BUILD! <3

newb question . with the mana changes on trigger skills whats the use of cwc setup when the mana consumption is still the same?

You get access to the greatest defensive tool this game has. Mobility.

Also you cast storms more frequently than you would do manually.

I actually tried the build with manual casting because I was curious if giving up 2 support gem slots was worth it. It technically works if you decide to manual cast if you don't mind the stutter-step playstyle of cast-move-cast-move, but it's obviously a lot clunkier. I also wonder if it's even a damage increase because of the frequency of casts as Cjin mentioned.

The couple of advantages, albeit small, are that you operate at range instead of "melee" and you can kind of be a turret inside your Frost Shield instead of having to bring Ice Storm to your enemies.

After playing both styles, I'll be sticking with CwC + Cyclone, it's just smoother and as Cjin also pointed out, the mobility is crucial, especially with the game going back to being more RIPpy.

Hello,

I'm interesting about how did you craft your amulet (%int/%att/%damage per int) ?

I suppose you did :
1) Awaken Orb %int + %att
2) Reroll, keep suffixes until %damage per int

Is it right ?

Thanks for your answer !

Is this build a fast map clearer or not really?

You just spin through trash, but you are limited to the speed of Stampede (50%.) It's not like the 200% speed builds. Call it medium fast.

Hey i loved my old cyclone build and never played CI and a ice build before so looking forward to trying this just wondering do we follow the pob leveling tree then respec after act 10?

I think you need to be at least level 90 roughly to have enough passive points to successfully respec to the cluster jewel tree.
