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

why everyone does not take into account the shock in POB. Doesn't Holy Dominion give 5% of shock that is effective with critical hits? if you look in the Calcs section, you will see that ice nove and frostbolt are shocked by Holy Dominion in the table of other effects

Kinda new to the whole CoC scene, or PoE all together. I was wondering how can you get more Crit Chance? I have about 40% and I find no way to increase it from items or passives.

My profile is public so if somebody could take a look and tell me what I am missing I would appreciate it a lot!

Thank you!

According to PoB your Cyclone actually has 72.77% Crit and Ice Nova 78.60. This is not factoring in ambush and assassinate. I'd say your crit multiplier is more of an issue. You want to be well over 400%, you have 396%.You got 2 jewel slots that are empty. That be a good spot to get more crit multi.

First: get a diamond flask. Rolls your crit chance twice. You'll crit a lot more.

Second: Cospris has "60% increased critical chance against chilled enemies" that's not shown in tooltip, and it's quite significant.

Third: once you finish your ascendancy, "100% MORE critical..." Is huge.

Hey just wanted to say thanks for the build guide. Super easy to follow. Been playing PoE for years and killed shaper for the first time tonight.

I was wondering,

Would it be possible to dual wield Cospri, put Vortex on that third CoC and obviously change the tree a bit to get some accuracy ?

Quick Question: Why do you have Immortal Call in your setup later? You don't generate Endurance Charges because Warlords Mark is gone. This makes kind of no sense or am i missing something?

Hihi!

What is the minimum budget I can get away with to run this build?

I looked at the "Core items" section and wondering if there are budget substitutes for:
- Loreweave which you say is mandatory. I get why, but Loreweave is pricey like 4ex within first month of league. Is it possible to run another 5L chest until you can afford Loreweave? Obviously that means less mitigation, but at least the build still functions fine generally for maps t1-15?

- Cospri Malice - this is 2ex within first month of leaguue. Can you get away with a Widowmaker for maps? or is there a better budget unique?

- The Pandemonius - again like 3.5ex atm - is there a budget substitute?

Really keen to try the build but don't have much currency to break the bank!!!

Hi, I need help. I changed to a 14% cooldown recovery belt and upgraded the weapon to 14% attackspeed. Now when I check my attackspeed without any flask it says 3.2? Is that okey or should it be 3.7 without flask? Thanks in advance =)

Hello,

First of all thanks for the build.
It is going well but sometimes I get one-shot by boss or Syndicate-members.
Can you help me on this subject?

I do know that my chest must be replaced by Loreweave but he isn't 6l yet.

Thanks
Tim

My End Result:

(The 60/58% increased dmg on gloves & boots is assuming soul prevention is up as PoB can't calculate that atm).

Sometimes I'll swap discipline to anger and my watcher's eye to a crit multi on anger one... Just for hilarious damage.

Pretty happy with how it's all gone, the guide was awesome. Went my own way with a couple of bits... Could potentially upgrade a couple jewels to have 2 crit multi stats on them (also gonna slam mine with Leo later), but that's 6+ ex per jewel for a very minimal damage increase. Also could use a Spell Damage base for gloves, but it took a lot of alts to hit that roll so cba doing that again haha.

Otherwise, I kinda feel like there's nothing else that could be upgraded (outside of mirror-tier gear which I cannot afford). Awesome build, great fun to play and managed uber elder in 1:45 which is my fastest ever.

If anybody has any critiques I'd love to hear em, always looking to improve!
