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

You are level 90 and still use leveling gear. Upgrade that Chest and Helmet.
Yes, but I've been buying similar ones (coon int, shield) but they don't improve me ... the other way around ... I don't know what to buy exactly ... if you can help: D
Got around 10ex. How well would this build work with such budget?

Wrong jewel: Replica Pure Talent. It's not the same as Pure Talent, it gives you different things.

Wrong tree: Fusillade. The node you need is Heart of Ice, it's one cluster to the left.

Wrong flasks: anti-freeze flask is enchanted to trigger 'when you become poisoned' and a different flask 'when you become frozen' but it doesn't remove freeze. Flask enchantments can now be crafted in the bench. Make the same flasks as me: anti-freeze that triggers when you get frozen; anti-bleed when you start bleeding; The Wise Oak, Atziri's Promise and a granite flask - when you hit a rare or unique enemy.


Staff with 16% Int: get a 18% one, they are very cheap.

The CwC gem should be lv 15 or 16, not 19. The math behind that is linked in the guide.

Upgrades:
- a better chest, with 500+ ES, %Int and either flat +Int or craft 6% Attr;
- make a swap staff for the bosses;
- cluster jewels.

thank you very much!! now I see the bug in the build haha
now with some changes that you have told me except the one of the armor that I cannot find, I already tried a t16 and more than enough! Thank you so much

There is another question!
to go for cluster, I understand that I have to delete points from the build to put the points elsewhere, right?


Thank you so much for everything!!!!

For Glimpse on Infinity you have to dodge both the light beams, that you seem to be doing pretty well, and the rotating beam. For beam, how fast it rotates, you need to stay close to the boss. Really close.

Got it!

New video: Dodge All Beams at Uhtred

It can get very tricky when he does his rotating beam while the white beams are still firing.

Switching from the classic/leveling tree to the Cluster tree takes about 30 regrets.

You must have at least 1 Large cluster (cold, 8 nodes) with CttC and 2 Split Personality's with Int + whatever. As soon as you have that, you can switch to the cluster version and work on upgrading to 2 Large clusters with CttC and something else good, adding a Medium curse cluster, obtaining Splits with Int/ES, 3rd curse, etc.
Ok my few things to the build now.

As i was really lucky to find 2 doctor in heist (heist was the only base of getting the currency i needed at the current state of trading) i bought the watchers eye (best deal for 10 ex for the build) one split perso with es and int (was not worth the 8 ex).

Now at 2,6 k int (could be more as i crafted a nice ring with inc int but then the res are my problem) and 11 k es most contend is going comfortable.

biggest problem for me is my laziness. died mostly in logbooks as i oversee mods like monster freeze, (use arctic armor then) and monster inflict bleeding. the flask is not enought for that. Is there a thing i dont know what i can do or is the only way to avoid such remnants.

Last big thing is helmet with inc int. i tried it with 5 86 helmet as i like to have the high int on it but failed all times. Now i will try it with a 79 helmet.

and got a lvl 100 6 link regalia. is it better to first hit the crusader orb on it or first get high es and int and then the crusader orb?

as i know there is no way to try a second time to get the % int on helmet. If i miss something please tell me :-)

all in all the build works really really good also its much more expensive then in the past.

Thanks for the great build guide again. Without the changes kel did it wouldend work so good.
Hi Guys,

Here's the pob of my char right now @ lvl 97: https://pastebin.com/6Yxcakmd

I'm sitting at 15.2k ES right now but my damage seems a bit low for the level of investment.

Any suggestions on how to take it to the next level?

I know I should get a better chest piece with flat int but haven't had luck crafting so far and the body armours are super overpriced to buy right now.

Mainly I think my passive tree and jewels are not fully optimised, and I'm still leveling my awakened support gems. I would be very hesitant to mess with my gear right now because I have balanced triple res for Wise Oak after burning a lot of divine orbs to get everything setup perfectly.

15k ES? This made me re-check the current prices and wow, the extra ES Watcher's Eyes are down to 30-35 ex! From 70-80 ex just a week ago.

Got this baby for 30 ex and sold mine for 9 ex. Now I have 15k ES too, like the cool kids! :)

Looking at your PoB... You do exactly 50% of my damage vs Sirus, so there must be more than just 3 levels difference. 2871 Int is too low for this level of investment.

Ways to improve that I see:

- Corrupted Coil. If none on the market, just make it yourself. Buy uncorrupted coils and Temple Chronicles with the rk3 corruption room and go. Many of the by-products can be re-sold.

- Defiance Banner?? I don't see why you would use that. Solaris and Enfeeble is more than enough protection against crits. Replace it with Enlighten lv 3 and drop Sovereignty. +4 skill points right there.

- Get a 4-node curse cluster. Roll it yourself, since you only need 1 notable. You are wasting a skill point to get 2% all res while you are already over the cap. +1 skill point.

- Change pathing between CI and Deep Wisdom to what I use. Drop Arcane Focus (300 ES is not worth it). Grab the jewel socket and put Emperor's Wit in it (15 ex).

- This will leave you with 2 skill points still available. Replace one of the Large clusters with CttC/BS. Put that in the upper-left socket and spend those 2 points there, to extend the path to Split Personality. To keep your resists balanced, lose the cluster with all res. Overall you will lose 16% all res - the exact amount you have over cap. You can get some of that back on the new cluster (or some extra Int).

- Get resist penetration on all corrupted jewels, except the one with CB immunity.

- The obvious weakest item is the gloves. You can get a lot more resists on them. Which would allow you to go for better (ideally synthesized or corrupted) rings. Or go for synthesized gloves - and you can still get much better resists on them. Yes, that would require re-balancing resists.

- Quick profit: sell your 21/20 CE and use the cheap 20/20. After the nerf there is no difference between lv 21 and 22 on most of the support gems we use (and the same about Awakened ones lv 6 and 7). The staff gives +1 level and that's all we need.

Overall, trading damage for ES is not worth it. Damage is always better, and Int also gives some ES.
