Just came here to say "F" and pay respects for this build and your work on it!
RIP build :(
@WaifuJanna

Efficacy still deals (15-24)% more Damage over Time

Empower def a main link now.

For the mana costs I just did add 20% to the 5 support gems, so 1.2^5 = 2.48x the mana cost. Clarity will really benefit from these 200%-300% aura effect.

For the aura, the new banner looks totally overpowered.

That was a great build. I was really having fun, playing it during 3.13. Now it is nuked. Thank you, everyone, who have been helping new players to get used to Cold DOT mechanics. I hope that on some day Vortex Occ will become playable again.
RIP to my fav build of all time - and thanks to Shak for all of your efforts.
3.7m dps to 1.6m after PoB update... RIP
New and/or curious players, please ignore the doom and gloom on the forums. Vortex is alive and well and we're getting close to an updated PoB. Guide will be updated ASAP; just lots to do. Thanks!

This has been quite the roller coaster. What a time to be alive.
