From Wiki (https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Ice_Bite_Support): " Wiki wrote: Comparison with Added Cold Damage Support (note that they are not incompatible): The mana multipliers are the same. At level 20, the average added damage out-scales Added Cold Damage's average added damage at 7+ frenzy charges (~6.7 charges for min. added, ~7.2 charges for max. added). At higher levels, one would need even more frenzy charges to gain more damage. The quality bonus is double for Ice Bite, but only affects hits on frozen targets. Ice Bite also grants chances to freeze and frenzy charges on killing a frozen target. 2 are accessible from tree + corrupted boots +1 OR Darkray Vector +1 makes it 6 or 7. Imo it is overkill with the Bloodrage. And a 2 point frenzy is not so much dps at the end.

Deadeye is just too strong. 50% inc damage, +2 pierce, +1 arrow, 30% Proj speed (nice qol for tornado shot). " ianSANE wrote: Awesome build.

Hey build is looking very good I was wondering how the damage scales into higher tier maps and how the single target is on bosses?	Posted by Impaledlol on Dec 22, 2017, 7:13:57 PM Quote this Post

With my previous char in Turmoil, I killed Hydra in a 6L relatively easily (used 2portals for flasks). I will try to upload some end-game bosses when back from hollidays.

is there a softcore version of this? I assume it will be fine.. not sure if there are any major differences.	Posted by Woots0 on Dec 23, 2017, 1:27:18 PM Quote this Post

If you play SC just for the sake of not being mad coz of lag bullshit or mistake it will be fine. If you aim for Mathil's DPS, maybe this build is not the most suited for it. As a only HC (party) player, I'm afraid I cannot really help at judging the SC viability of a build.

When you say "HC (party)" do you mean its only good in HC with a party? i mean, most builds with a support and party are usually HC viable. Or is it too squishy without a Party? Wondering cause my friends usually have shit computers and we cant play togheter, so i am solo all the way.	Posted by aceventauren on Dec 25, 2017, 12:17:00 PM Quote this Post

Wondering cause my friends usually have shit computers and we cant play togheter, so i am solo all the way. Nice catch. I definitely need to clarify this point. I'll edit guide with theses notes. I renamed it "HC (party friendly)". ;) It means couple of things: * the build runs nice in party (no lag) * the char has enough ms to catch up with other builds * the char brings knockback, shatter and blind so it is very party friendly * my char is setup for party (no vaal skill, no curse). The build is definitely not squishy and runs very smooth solo too.

Ah , thank you for clarifying things. By Vaal skills and curse for solo , what would you use? Vaal haste, vaal grace, Projectile weakness for curses or like an enfeeble cwdt?	Posted by aceventauren on Dec 25, 2017, 12:42:20 PM Quote this Post

TBH it is totally up to you. I'm not even sure what I would use. Need to try it. I guess I'll try with Vaal Haste + Duration. If this doesn't work, Double Vaal Grace + Duration seems legit (hello I'm dodge capped). As for curse, Enfeeble ftw!
