Had another question, sorry for the double post.

What if we use a watcher's eye with "unnafected by vulnerability while using determination" ? I didn't find anything about this in your thread (i may have missed that)

EDIT : Sorry, i saw on the section "jewels" that it actually work with the belt

Any thoughts on tattooing the passive tree? I'm looking at the Tattoo of the Ngamahu Warmonger which gives 2% explode. Stacking 5-10 of those should make clearing maps even faster. If not do you have any recommendations on which tattoos to use?


You can run that if you do not need the str.

I am currently looking into: wise, berserker, dove, tuatara, oak, flock and hatungo.

Since they reworked sanctum such that AR and EV helps mitigate resolution depleted, you probably do not need to swap anything.

ok. well i cant complete the sanctum with this build. this is what i was afraid of. even with creeping frost you need to be somewhat close to enemies so they can also hit you at the same time.
also the box where you put in relics is locked so i cant even buy relics to help me

maybe i'll make a totem build later just for sanctum

This is my 2nd league playing this build. Already having tons of fun and know all the little tips and important attributes to aim for. At 1m DPS so far and deep into red maps, think I'm going to complete the regular atlas maps and most unique maps tonight.

Very enjoyable build and highly recommended. Was able to acquire a mageblood with this build last league doing mostly harvest and crimson temple. Mageblood is my goal again this league though I'm going to do expedition this time

I don't know if it's possible but it would be nice to see you show some suggestions as to how to build around mageblood. I mostly just switched the flasks and some base gear but mostly stayed the same but I suspect there's some ways to optimize it

Glad to hear that you are enjoying Cold DoT two leagues in a row!

To be honest I have not found a good utilization of mageblood because Coward's Legacy is simply too powerful for this build.

This is my experience tinkering with POB for MB in the previous league: Equipping mageblood results in a gain in defense and movespeed but drop in DPS. If we then go ahead to sacrifice the defense gained for more DPS, our defense and DPS ends up similar to the set-up prior to the MB.

It did make playing the build much more laidback just because the pianorolls are removed. I was able to clear the content no problems even with slightly less DPS. Maybe that is good enough ahah. I also died noticeably less in my opinion.

I was also wondering regarding soul gain prevention affixes. I have one that gives armour on the shield right now cause there was no other good affix i had unveiled yet. My playstyle while mapping is basically using VCS directly when its off cooldown. Is the affix helping at all? I'm not so sure how long soul gain prevention is
