[3.5] CheeQu's CoC Ice Nova Assassin - Up to 7m Shaper DPS + Amazing Clearspeed [In-Depth Guide]

Just another build which claims to have
92304990342509432842323749281742142 damage, and can hardly clear a white T1 map.

I am really starting to hate this Path of Troll builds

Whaaat? At level 70 I went right to T10 maps with a tabula with no issues.

dear build?

I've pretty much cleared all content except for uber elder with this build pre level 90. You should link you gear if you're struggling, maybe we can help.

In the new build guide coming up could you add a section that gives help for uber elder. I have been able to clear everything except uber elder.

What do you guys think about an "Vaal Impurity of Ice" Gem? Or do we have enough Cold Pen?

So I finally took the plunge and converted my build from acro/phase acro back to the more eHP build of scion life wheel + Discipline + Watchers Eye, and did so while potentially increasing my damage output (main 6-link set-up went up, but Cospri's set-up went down).

This is what it currently looks like: https://pastebin.com/H9E0Z3SR

For now, my main concerns are:

- Don't think I got enough eHP out of the swap over to mitigate losing acro/phase acro. Definitely feel a lot squishier at the moment.
- Lack of permanent curse in the way of blasphemy or curse on hit is a little frustrating. Currently only have a CWDT + curse set-up.
- I am now flat broke and have enough spare items to make two more of these characters.

On the positive side, if my calculations are correct (which they probably aren't), I may have just cracked 10 million DPS with Vaal RF up. And my base Cyclone critical strike chance without flasks is much nicer now. Feels more comfortable to map with diamond flask down. Oh and my AoE is now much better for mapping.

Vaal Impurity of Ice sets the target's Cold Res to 0, negating all benefits of Cold Pen.
(and I didn't check where you're at, but as an example Shaper has -51% Cold Res for me...)

You'd need to change gems and come up with a different amulet solution just to prevent Impurity of Ice from reducing your damage by an enormous amount... seems like a lot of effort (and a big loss of defenses from perma-blind) for what would likely amount to very little DPS gained...

I'm clearing 10 Mods Temporal Chain + Double Boss T16 maps like I would clear a cup of pudding at 3:00 am while very high and having fasted for 2 days.

Deathless Uber Atziri (actually no sweat at all) and Deathless Uber Elder achieved.

You have no idea what you're talking about bro :(

How much is your total gear? Love to try but only have around 10 ex including gears on my current char

@CheeQu why do you say +ES gained on hit with Discipline is better than +Life gained on hit with Vitality?

I've checked top builds on poe ninja and only 2% use Discipline compared to 24% for Vitality

Because Discipline aura gives ES which directly increases your EHP, which helps against one shots and we already have ways to leech life, so any additional ways to regen/gain life will not be as effective.
