I've been doing a Cold/Fire build that selfcasts Comet and it is absolutely crushing Cruel bosses. Long cast time but you have big windows since you are freezing.

Cold Snap can do damage by unfreezing the enemy. Conversely, if Cold Snap is cast when the enemy is not frozen, it would not do any damage. Based on this, why is Unleash linked to Cold Snap? I would think that the first release would unfreeze and the second and subsequent Cold Snaps would not do any damage. Or is there an exception to the rule, where one freeze removed is enough to do 3 Cold Snap damage?	Posted by moonlit0#2647 on Dec 9, 2024, 2:55:45 AM Quote this Post

On larger bosses it auto detonates because it cant push or move them, which leads to big damage and instant freezes basically. On smaller bosses Frost Bomb + Frost Wall and spam frostbolt and coldsnap to detonate the wall.	Posted by KyleMasc#7189 on Dec 9, 2024, 5:40:02 AM Quote this Post
" Keep updating your progress! Build looks interesting and I'm excited to see what you come up with in the future. Could you give yourself away and tell what passive points on asc tree are you planning to choose? :) The ascendancy points should be in the skill tree's linked at the top. I went 4 into the arcane surge first for the cast speed and mana regen. I plan on going for the elemental storm nodes next since this will be a crit build. If they feel bad I'll go with something else!	Posted by KyleMasc#7189 on Dec 9, 2024, 5:41:34 AM Quote this Post

Unleash does nothing once a freeze is consumed but it does interact fast enough to blow up many frostbolts at once.	Posted by KyleMasc#7189 on Dec 9, 2024, 5:42:50 AM Quote this Post

" I was already doing the cold snap build i was wondering where the cast on death is? and is sigil of power comeing from your main hand/?? Sorry didnt play poe1 I appreciate the build thank you so much I'm assuming by cast on death you mean cast on freeze? It comes from tier 13 spirit gems. The sigil of power comes from a staff called a Chiming Staff.	Posted by KyleMasc#7189 on Dec 9, 2024, 5:44:36 AM Quote this Post
" Been playing this build too from the start, great build! How do you add links to your skill, im 49 and still only have 2 supports for skills. Either need to get lucky enough to find a jeweler's orb or try and buy one off the market for chaos orbs or exalted orbs.	Posted by KyleMasc#7189 on Dec 9, 2024, 5:45:34 AM Quote this Post
