[3.25] Ice Crash-Jugg-2h-Axe-Crit (FREEZE THE GAME) 100% Crit Rate Full Screen Explosions

I'm not having trouble with regular maps except for some tankiness. I was having trouble with those Shaper map bosses. My AS isn't a concern because Autoexert.

I didn't bother getting the blind nodes because I already bordered on 100 but I'm probably sure it'll be worth it when I pick up a Pandemonious. We'll see

I picked up Rage to mirror Dirikr's build and I can tell you that it stays on 40 Rage easily which is a ridiculous damage boost. And as for the 3 Tattoo nodes, they're an absolutely negligible health loss for chance to get max Fortify stacks just by Leap Slamming around.

Aaaaand Discipline of the Unyielding + Charge Mastery gives a very nice damage bonus for the time being. One of the nodes also provides a nice +% armor per Endurance Charge to make up for Autoexerting Seismic

This is the passive heatmap of all Ice Crash Juggernauts playing this build.
Dark Blue = Very bad.
Light Blue = Bad or unreached due to level.
Other Colors = Good.

Mastery list and tons more added to front page.

Homie, I really appreciate you reupping the build and helping to bring in enthusiasm for slams again but we're grown ass men here. I know how heat maps work and they most definitely do not operate in the context of "less chosen=bad"

There's really no need for the condescending behavior acting as though Ice Crash is bricked because people decided to deviate a few points.

Very nice work, it seems like you're done a great job testing this out!

I've actually wanted to play Ice Crash, started Hexblast and saved up a lot of currency and happened to get a once in a lifetime Mageblood drop. What might I look for in terms of rolls if I have to replace the unique flasks? Or are those pretty important?

Just a heads up to anyone running this this build:

TASTE OF HATRED IS BUGGED. There's a known bug where it is NOT applying any of the actual flask effects besides the cold resistance. I have mine currently swapped until this bug gets fixed.

That means we’ll be even stronger once it’s fixed!

I tried to remove Undeniable as Hero suggested, it clearly requires getting used to but I like it and in the end I even removed Unyielding, I don't regret it at all.
I'm even tankier than before (45K on poe ninja : https://poe.ninja/builds/settlers/character/MVKrayn/KraynVonSettlers) without really losing any dps after switching a few atlas points. My goal is to farm T17 maps consistently as if they were T16 maps without crazy items and I think I'm not far from it (my few deaths are more a skill issue than anything else :D).

Concerning the heat map, from my point of view some blue choices are really good choices and I think some must have items are not that essential.
For example I'm still convinced that Unstoppable + good boots like Death's Door Boots is a better choice than losing mobility and 4 gems with Kaom.

As always, thanks for all the ideas, I love seeing the build evolve !

You can run Mageblood for sure. As to what to run with it, mageblood lets you choose whatever suits your playstyle the best. You can see my characters on my account. Last 2 leagues I ran mageblood as well. For my holy relic i used these flasks with mageblood.

Also, big grats on the MB drop! So exciting!

Harvest spammed this just now. Pretty lucky. Been hard to get a weapon upgrade. Going to add culling to it.

I know people ask how to craft weps but I am not the greatest in that regard.
I harvest spam Phys/yellow juice or I delve fossil usually. Cold/Phys/Crit/Lucky for fossils usually. You can also essence but they are insanely expensive this league compared to these methods where I get it for free through playing.
