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

How vital is Pandemonius if we assume I'm not going past red maps (i.e.: to Guardians and beyond)? I have the currency to put the build together with the exception of that amulet. It seems like the build would do fine without it and that it's primarily for single target damage and safety. Is that right?

got all the items except amulet... my aps is only 2.1, why is that?

You looking at diffult attack APS, not at cyclone. Select the cyclone icon above the stats.

Made the -cold res helmet below. Any thoughts on using this? Or is it Starkonja's/Devoto's or bust? Should be able to replace the +atk speed on Stark's via rare gloves.

Sure you can. starkonja is like a rare actually. offers 100 life and 3 suffixes ( 1x attack speed and 2x Dexterity). So you just have to replace those suffixes elsewhere.

Running this build and it's doing great! Big question though, how do we handle no regen maps? I just rerolled one a while ago realizing that I couldn't regen mana through it.

Coming from a build that used whirling blades, the flame dash feels a lot slower. Any tips or is there any other movement skill that we can utilize?


Thank you.

Hey, Id recommend getting perfect roll alchemist quicksilver of adrenaline + flask nodes at thr top of the tree. I use movement speed and so much movement skills and it's pretty fast nd smooth. However you can use things like leap slam and discharge and move arcane surge to vortex as stated by others.

This dagger has an open prefix and can craft *Hits Can't be evaded*

What difference to the build would this make using this dagger in stead of a lyco? And does it matter which hand the dagger is in? Because with this dagger i have 94.7% Crit chance, With the sword alone it's only reaching 78%, I feel that's not enough crit chance.

You re probably not factoring diamond flask or cospris critical strike against chilled enemies. Crit chance should be above 90%.

Anyways, we kinda need cospri to spawn frostbolts for the ice nova interaction. Also for leeching life with the triggered spells.

If use 2 weapons, cyclone hits alternate, once using the one weapon and then the other. So there's not much benefit to do so.

Yes, perfect!

CheeQu - why don’t you think running blood rage for the Arakaali pantheon proc (50% boost to life gain on hit and life leech rate!) is worth running?
