[2.6] Popsicle Sticks - Over 60k freezing DPS! (3.0 WIP)

Hi! Today I spend 4 hours to reroll my build/spec for this build. Look very interesting but probably I dont understand how it should be works. Where is that 60k dps? When I look at my spell there is 11k DPS it is per totem or what?

Also I made very fast shopping with items. Can you look and tell me whats wrong or something?



There are screenshots from my stats

Fairly new to the game and only do HC. This is the first build to take me all the way to maps. Thanks!

i'm following this build slowy, haven't gotten to point to use ice totems yet. I was wondering how or where do I put the jewels?

What I am running now is:
1x Static Electricity on the scion jewel node beside the 3 elemental resist nodes
1x Static Electricity on the jewel node between scion, duelist and ranger
Mantra of Flames and other rare jewels can be in any jewel slot.

Hello again. Sorry to be so annoying but I've started to play recently. I already have my character to level 69 but I see that not it casts me Herald of Thunder + blind / Herald of Ice + Hypothermia, any suggestions? Thank you for patience.

I seen some builds run hypothermia with herald of ice but I am not too sure if it works or not as things happen so quickly.

You don't need blind support gem as Pandemonius amulet grants you 100% blind on chill and you always chill with it.

Herald of thunder is there just cause I only have that slot remaining :D

ATM loveing this build. Freeze spells are just the way how to play. Will see how its carry later, cauz im playing only HC. Lets hope i dont lack of life.

Glad you are enjoying the popsicle sticks :)

As suggested, you can always drop your 6link chest for a Kaom's Heart after getting a 6link Nuro's harp.

Some damage/jewel nodes can also be dropped to get more life nodes from the tree.

To be truly HC viable, the playstyle and position of yourself and totems in key.

Well done, you gear and stats are spot on :)

For the DPS part, the 35% More damage from Hypothermia is not shown on the DPS on the character sheet.

This goes the same for Point Blank's 50% More damage.

Taking the 85% More damage (at optimal conditions) into account, your DPS of 11k per totem is easily 16-18k dps and with 3 totems, you exceed 60k.

Good Job! Glad to know that my theory of this build being HC viable actually works in reality :)

hey i'm really liking your build, for leveling i went in the south branch before going into the totem skills feeling like i might not be able to use them early on, but for now, i have a doomfletch prism and a 5 link chest piece, i haven't found any of the extra combos for the blind or curse with split shot, but ill prolly get there somehow, i wanted to ask, should i use my ice shot with hypothermia or greater multiple projectile support? since right now it does a flat 1k dps at level 43, with doomfletch prism. i was running split arrow and it stayed at 300ish dps for a while, would greater multiple projectile support make clearing better?

Fun build, man! I was looking for something that used a very different play style, and I'm happy that I found it.
