Ice Nova
Am I missing something, or does Ice Nova not benefit from increased radius % passives? Visually, the radius stays the same...

"We can't currently scale the current ice nova effect. When it's redone it will be made scalable. | |
If you don't have "Concentrated effect" - the gem that boosts aoes - you're not doing it right.

Just need a unique cold scepter/wand/staff to come out and let the ice nova builds flourish.

You can do chaos with this. All it needs is 20% resist interruption while casting aoe keystone to make it fully viable. Or some other way to gain resist interruption.
Atm I am using evasion to acheive this. Sweet spot is once you get above 30% evasion, really difficult to get though and still keep the 4-5K es you need and resists. Also build completely depends on diamond flasks to keep enemies permanently CC'd frozen. If diamond flasks are nerfed the build is dead.

Does the weakness of this spell in late-game have anything to do with the fact that it's not affected by multiple projectiles, unlike most other offensive spells? Maybe AoE support gems need a buff.

" Ok get that, but im experiencing that area effect has no effect whatsoever to ice nova currently. I tried everything to get bigger area but nothings working(passive skills,iae,quality ice nova etc). And i dont mean the graphical effect! Seems after last patch something happened!?

If you have those it will result in hitting enemies that seem past the edge. It does appear to work just fine.

Sry but it does not work fine, ive played ice nova since 0.94 i think i can tell the difference... Even if i replace concentrated damage gem with iae nothing happens with the kill distance. I'm not joiking!

Edit: Actually the AOE radius was bugged apparently
