[3.25] Ice Dancing Queen - Icestorm/Cyclone/CI - Viable For Everything

Those 2x 10% cast speed with curses passive nodes, leading to the +1 curses, we should just change them into 1% reservation or wut?

Edit: Same with the 2x 4% mana nodes leading to the top-right cluster jewel?

Edit: Nevermind, i see i was a bit fast there. Doesn't apply to those nodes :(

Hey there! I've been following this build at league start, but I feel like I'm not doing much damage at all. I know this is still a work in progress, but could you guys take a look and tell me if I'm missing something?

I don't know how to link to a specific character. It's in my profile.

You are in a similar place to me at the moment. Farming for the cluster jewel and the 2x Split personality. After allocating that it becomes quite a bit stronger.

On a defensive note, your helm should have ES and your body armor should be either full evasion or a evasion/ES chestpiece to take advantage of the "Escape Artist" Ascendancy node we took.

Thanks! Good to know I'm not doing something horribly wrong. Unfortunately there are no chestpieces that fit on the market right now, at least in my price range haha!

Is anyone familiar with how the official trade site caches things and shows it?
Been trying for a few Split Personality jewels the entire day, and there was only 1 with int & ES listed for the last many hours. Now suddenly, there's alot of them listed, and they are all listed for more than 10 hours. How does that work? How do i know if there are even cheaper ones for sale, but poetrade just doesn't show them for some miraculous reason? :O

Did you refresh regularly?

If you want an item and there's no reasonable price on the market, just start a live search. They'll pop up as soon as people list them.

You're still level 82. Ten more levels will make a difference.

Switching to cluster/Split Personnalities is a massive upgrade, especially if you get a cluster with Cold to the Core and Blanketed snow. Try it out in PoB and you'll see what I mean. Plus, the pathing provided in the cluster PoB is very efficient.

The two conversion jewels on left and right of Cluster PoB are also a big upgrade. The left one, for example, provides 45 flat int, which is huge. They cost almost nothing.

A lot of your gems are not level 20 and don't have any quality. You'd be suprised how much it influences your damage.

Don't forget to quality your flask for cheap extra uptime.

Tranquility annoint is 15% damage. It's better than Wisdom of the Glade.

You don't have a completed boss staff set up for the single target damage. The second staff does 2-3 times the damage. It's huge, as it lets you shred the tanky rares much faster. It's a priority, even with non-awakened gems. As soon as you hit a tanky mob or a boss, you can switch to your second weapon set and easily dispatch them. It's a very important part of the build.

Your helmet/gloves/body armour are missing all of the damage modifiers, namely the eldritch implicits. That's a huge upgrade that is not that costly. When you remove Unnerve on hit/extra dmg per int/extra crit multi/extra Hatred effect, it makes a big difference. You can buy cheap eldritch currency and add the lowest tier for cheap.

Working Hatred in is an instant +20% damage. Work on that. If you can put in a Charisma annoint and buy Enlighten 3, you should be able to fit it right in.


All in all, you're on the way! The power of the build is exponential. Just slowly add pieces to the whole and your damage should eventually soar.

What is intensity +1 needed for?

Intensify is used on the bossing staff. For example, the +1 Intensity mastery on the top-end PoB gives 13.5% more DPS on that staff, which is the most important one for bossing and deleting anything tanky. On the mapping staff, you still get the 3% from Polymath, as it's the only caster mastery the build runs.

Boa is this a bullshit league. Not only the trials fuck off i am crashing 2 of 10 heist contracts. the client close and the loot is gone. Thats so awfool.
Build works as ever.
But the crashing is really annoying.
