This is just my opinion, some better informed can correct it.

I don't think having one of both is entirely necessary (say getting Hatred and Herald of Thunder or Herald of Ice and Wrath). I'm of the mindset of what is available for me to use as it stands currently and what works best to offer the best DPS and utility. If you got a good watcher's eye that favors lightning via wrath then you can stick with the conventional wrath+HoI set up. 40% of your lightning is already converted to cold anyway so you should still be able to get chills and freezing done.

That's interesting, I'm not super aware of how the fine details of the stats work so I was worried I'd need herald of ice to reliably freeze, and thunder to have some thunder damage.

If I look at pure DPS on my character sheet, using Hatred + herald of ice, or hatred + herald of thunder seem to be the strongest options. Does it mean it's fine if I keep both ice ones and no thunder aura at all?

i like the idea but seems to me just slotting two extra support gems to beef up storm burst does more than the hydrosphere ever adds

It's generally the cold damage threshold that causes the freeze on a crit or synergy with something like the Hypothermia support. Get enough crit and a decent amount of damage you can freeze various mobs easily even without herald of ice. HoI's real main appeal is the aoe shatters with decently respectable damage they provide and not so much the flat added buff it gives. With a Hatred setup (especially with a good watcher's eye) your cold damage can overtake lightning damage.

This sounds weird but I think a weirder choice to use as an alternate herald while using Hatred would be Herald of Purity due to the More phys multiplier buff it offers. Also the purity guys that come up are at the very least distractions.

I'm wondering, what kind of chest could replace the Inpulsa in far late game ? Any example of an explode chest maybe ? I'm quite noob and never played so much on a single char (This is my highest level character ever)

I also tried out Choir of the Storm. And. Holy fuck the damages.

hey there great guide! having fun with this so far. can you please explain how we get 4 golems? i can only see the ability for 3. am i missing something?

Yeah Choir of the Storm is a juicer for sure. An explode chest would scale best for sure, now that I got currency I will try min max her out.

We get two from the Ascendancy, one from Golem Commander at the very top of the tree, and one by default :D.

This basetype introduced in Heist gives charges of all varieties, not sure how good it is but the affixes actually made it a DPS upgrade for me. No doubt at the high end something with a proper Implicit would outperform it though.

A crafted and rolled Explodey Astral Plate or Vaal Regalia with another special affix is probably the best we get. Not sure what the best second affix would be. I thought maybe Incursion Life+%Life, but that means you only get one conqueror influence type and have to get super lucky with the crusader exalt slam to get explode as well as getting the right base with the Incursion mod on it. Maybe Elder or Hunter for %life and Spell Crit?

Shitty build with Click-Bait opener....

But I like the efford you put into it. FYI, try using Frost Bomb ;)

Can anyone tell me how you get 4 golems? From the ascendency you seem to only get 3?

If I am not wrong, should be:
1 - Default
2 - Liege of the Primordial
3 - Elemancer
4 - Golem Commander
