Under: When in Combat
1) We have 4 min endurance charges and 4 min power charges. We get frenzy charges from Cold Snap.
2) Have onslaught from Cinderswallow. (Remember to uncheck this when equipping Bottled Faith -- unless you get sleepless sentries on a cluster.
3) We have flasks avtive.
4) We've summoned totems recently. 6 max totems.
5) We are on consecrated ground. (Bottled Faith)
6) We have shattered recently. (We freeze enemies. They shatter when they die while frozen.)

Under: For Effective DPS
1) Our crit chance is lucky, from Diamond Flask.
2) Enemy is blinded (From Pandemonius)
3) Enemy is Chilled (From cold damage)
4) Enemy is Chilled by our hits (from Pandemonius)
5) Enemy is Frozen (from cold damage)
6) Enemy is Shocked @ 15% (from Cold Conduction on cluster jewel)
7) Enemy is on Consecrated Ground (From Bottled Faith)
8) Shaper/Guardian to get effective shaper DPS.

Ok, now while comparing I will uncheck the consecrated ground and check Onslaught for Cinderswallow DPS:

Now uncheck Onslaught and check consecrated ground:

Bottled Faith is about a 12% increase over Cinderswallow to your Total DPS.

Welp guess its time to save up and buy the bottle I guess. Thanks!

It will be worth it. Also a couple things I would change to give you more DPS:
1) Switch out your corrupted blood crimson jewel for Clear Mind. It's more dps, more defense from mana regen and you have a staunching flask anyway to deal with corrupted blood.
2) Remove the 3 points from Arcane Capacitor and the 2 points from Coldhearted Calculation. Take the 5 points up to Throatseeker.

Those 2 things should give you a 23% total DPS increase.

I am looking for some advice for gear upgrades I should be looking into I might have missed? I know I need to get the helm enchanted, I plan on working on that today or tomorrow.

Level 21 freezing pulse

Increased crit chance if you havent crit recently boot enchant

Upgrade to Awakened Added Cold and Awakened Cold Pen (they're cheap now).

Consider switching to double curse hextouch link.

Awakened controlled destruction. (expensive, but really good)

You could also consider an awakened hextouch support for your double curse link (very expensive) which would allow you to keep flash freeze on your amulet OR switch to doom cast annoint.

Edit: Move speed on boots. This is purely QoL but yeah lol I just noticed you don't have any.

Hello all!

It's my first ligue in poe. I asked friend how to start and got link to this thread. I'm straight following the guide, read this thread and here what I end up. Not so exciting but I can kill a9 sirius/maven/uber elder and etc (didnt try fearead), don't die in ultimatums t16 maps.

What else I should improve? DPS in pob not so big and I can't exactly figure out what I need to do for that.
now I trying to get my +2 soul mantle (seems like next biggest impact to dps), awakened cold penetriation and I dunno what else for stright up my dps. Without small pices like change 8% first snow to 10%, 19% to 20% self fragmentarion.

I got awk hextouch, trying switch to double+hydrosphere - try to compare this setup in pob and got lower dps that I have now. Is it worth switch to hydrosphere? Can someone please explain switch to hydrosphere from current state of my build?

My profile is public and here is my pob: https://pastebin.com/uXTX7gMZ

Guide is very clear, much appreciated. Even I'm a total newbie was able to gather on it to close the high-end content. But it seems to me that I'm missing something, but I cannot understand what (according to build). Or is it just suspiciousness and everything is good.

Thank you.

So I know this isn't exactly freezing pulse, but I switched it up to Ice Spear totems just because I like the chaining (comes in handy for multiple bosses too).
Where would you guys improve my build? It says (if I did the POB correctly) that I have 12M Sirus damage, which isn't bad but I don't BLOW UP bosses normally, just steady damage. I don't have that much currency, but could do the 2ex for a single mod watcher's eye that does cold pen, which would increase my damage by 7% or so.
I already have a good wand (would have to spend a lot to get a better one).
Have decent enough helm, boots, and gloves, though of course survivability could always be better.

So what would you guys change?

My first thought is if hypothermia is still good here?

Okay, this might be a dumb question, but why wouldn't it be?

Guys should i use culling strike against bosses to place it in instead of controle destruction support?

I am playing this on HC, are there any major changes if you use a shield other than just equipping a shield?

I think ice spear freezes/chils less but crits more? So it would benefit more from crit I imagine rather the support hypothermia brings. Play around in POB and see what numbers you get when swapping out Hypothermia.
