[3.23] CI CoC Ice Nova of Frostbolts Build | Occultist | Affliction | Path of Exile 3.23

Hey guys, ci cast on crit ice nova of frostbolts occultist build is here. In this version we use Chaos Inoculation for chaos immunity and we have max block chance with Glancing Blows. It's tankier than low life version but damage is lower.

Build Cost
- High Budget: 50-100 div


Mana: How do I sustain mana?
- Non-Channelling Skills have # to Total Mana Cost mod on rings
- Inspiration
- Mana leech from Clever Thief (Skill tree)
- #% increased Mana Cost of Skills per 10 Devotion mod on Militant Faith

Critical Strike Chance: Aim for %100 crit chance.
- Power charges
- Diamond Flask, any flask with crit chance mod
- Inspiration charges
- Precision
- Ascendancy, Skill tree, Medium cluster
- Cospri's Malice
- Charms with "+#% Critical Strike Chance while at maximum Power Charges" mod

Cooldown recovery: We need at least 52% for this build. I got it from:
- Level 9 Awakened Cast on Critical Strike (34%)
- Belt (12%)
- Boots (6%)

Accuracy: We need %100 hit chance.
- Level 20 Precision
- Accuracy Rating on a ring
- Blind (Disorienting Display, Cluster Notable)
- Depth Perception (Skill Tree)

Aps: With 52% cooldown recovery optimal aps for cyclone is 10.1. Don't go over it. Cyclone's aps is 9.92 with this setup. (I'm still missing some attack speed but it was hard to optimize the build with cospri)
- 10% inc attack speed, Quick Getaway (x2)
- 17% inc attack speed, Flask
- 20% inc attack speed, Onslaught
- 12% inc attack speed, Gloves
- 14% inc attack speed, Watcher's Eye
- 5% inc action speed, Boots

Stun Immunity: Using a charm with "Cannot be Stunned by Hits you Block". It's not full stun immunity but better than nothing.

If you wanna play with more or less attack speed check out the link:

Militant Faith: Dominus to get Inner Conviction keystone.
Try to get one with these mods:
- 4% increased Elemental Damage per 10 Devotion
- 1% reduced Mana Cost of Skills per 10 Devotion

Before switching to coc make sure you have:
- Unique items
- Enough dexterity for cospri's malice
- Enough accuracy and crit chance to trigger skills

Leveling: Leveling gems and trees are in the video.

Leveling Uniques:
- Axiom Perpetuum (2x)
- Tabula Rasa
- Karui Ward
- Tasalio's Sign (2x)

- Goldrim
- Lochtonial Caress

Hello

Any idea how i can search "increased reservation efficiency of skills" jewel from poe trade, it shows 0 results.
Have to search for it a very specific way.

Check the trade link below. Need to have Added small passive as an enchant, then select the reservation.

Hi sir, thanks for the build good sir. Why do you take the leech notes under the right section of the tree - clever thief? Isn't it for attacks?
Hi, What if we dont have 52% cooldown recovery? i got like 40? should i change something?
where else can we get cooldown recovery from if we dont have awakened coc gem? can we get 34% from somewhere else?

you have to have awakened CoC. i used regular CoC until i could afford it.
Playing Minmatar is like being pushed down the stairs duct taped to an office chair while firing an Uzi in each hand.

there is no other way? 8 divine seems a lot for just 1 gem
Again, do we need that 52% cooldown recovery?

How do you get lvl 9? I only see a level 5 socketed, +1 to gems from chest. Where are the additional 3 levels coming from?
