Passive Skill Tree, PoB, and Gem Links

You can find an optimized Path of Building here. Every build I release will use the community fork of Path of Building, which is maintained and updated in a much more regular fashion than the original one. You can find PoB’s Fork, by LocalIdentity, here.

If you are not comfortable with Path of Building, PoePlanner’s website offers you a non-PoB alternative to import the code from the above link. Do note that this does not have the same amount of Support as Path of Building has and it is highly recommended you install Path of Building to follow builds most optimally.

Progression Advice

Whilst I have leaguestarted this character, and played it from level 1 onwards, I highly recommend you running a more traditional leveling setup and swapping into Frost Bomb after acquiring some of the basics.

Gem Links

Frost Bomb Frost Bomb *Of Instability*(Main Link)

Obviously, builds can be played without Awakened Gems however in this case, I cannot emphasize enough how big Awakened Spell Cascade Support Awakened Spell Cascade Support is for this build.

Because you’re an instant cast Frost Bomber, you can get around the “narrow” clear by casting twice (once to the left and once to the right for example) but on single target, you literally get 5 overlaps instead of 3 giving you 66% more damage on single target. Pretty sick, right?

  1. Frost Bomb Frost Bomb of Instability
  2. Awakened Spell Cascade Support Awakened Spell Cascade Support
  3. Empower Support Empower Support
  4. Power Charge On Critical Support Power Charge On Critical Support
  5. Less Duration Support Less Duration Support
  6. Awakened Increased Area of Effect Support Awakened Increased Area of Effect Support
  1. Awakened Added Cold Damage Support Awakened Added Cold Damage Support
  2. Awakened Spell Echo Support Awakened Spell Echo Support
    For bosses, you can remove the Less Duration Support Less Duration Support & socket in either Awakened Added Cold Damage Support Awakened Added Cold Damage Support or Awakened Spell Echo Support Awakened Spell Echo Support. In order to do this, you will need 1 white socket on your Carcass Jack Carcass Jack

Aura Setup

The build’s setup accounts for a level 3 Enlighten. If you can’t get a hold of it, you’ll have to drop Precision.

  1. Determination Determination
  2. Hatred Hatred
  3. Enlighten Support Enlighten Support (3 or 4)
  4. Grace Grace
  1. Herald of Ice Herald of Ice (21/20)
  2. Precision Precision (Whatever level you can afford to run)

Curses through Arcanist Brand

Drop your Arcanist Brand when you’re fighting a boss to unlock your final form.

  1. Arcanist Brand Arcanist Brand
  2. Elemental Weakness Elemental Weakness
  3. Frostbite Frostbite
  4. Assassin's Mark Assassin's Mark

Remaining Sockets

I would always run a Flame Dash Flame Dash to be even more mobile. This leaves you with 3 open sockets. I personally opted for Cast on Death Support Cast on Death Support and Portal Portal setup. When running juiced content, you will eventually & ocassionally die. Being able to just jump back in where you left is an incredible gain in clearspeed for most builds! Obviously, you’re free to use any of the other options.

When doing bosses, I recommend using Storm Brand Storm Brand linked to Increased Critical Strikes Support Increased Critical Strikes Support and Power Charge On Critical Support Power Charge On Critical Support to help generating charges. You will do close to no damage before you have your power charges, which is kind of annoying.
