Yep, thanks for your suggestion but I think I'm overlevel already (according to monster level on top right). Maybe I'll need higher health and improve my resistance. Btw, I made my chars public.

I just wanted to thank you for this guide. I chose it for my first league character and it's been very easy to play, level, and most importantly, it is enjoyable. My current character is 91 with about 6k life. I died a lot during leveling and occasionally on some maps. I'm at the point wondering if it's worth the exalts to get up to 6.5k life to boss push or start a new char. Either way, this guide has taught me so much.

I feel that low recovery maps are pretty tough to clear fast. I was a noob and didn't realized it affected leech rate at first. Also, the hardest part of this build as a noob is using slower projectiles. I walked into twinned boss shrine with two piety and couldn't even catch them to get a hit cause with slower projectiles, the projectile distance is basically melee.

So with hatred rolling, enemies will mostly always be chilled. I marked chilled in PoB, and suddenly hypothermia shot way up in its dps calculations, so much so that it outdoes crit damage. What say you? I'm not that experienced of a player, so there could be something I'm missing, but it seems better.

Hmm. That is a good question. I'm probably just cheap and don't want to spend the big currency for minor upgrades since it took me a while to build up my bank roll. At the same, I overleveled bad during the campaign since I was new and I'm level 91 and I haven't done a tier 14 map yet cause it's taken me a while to build up my map stash even when dropping tons of currency into it. I've just recently started accumulating 12-13's at a good rate.

There are times, especially when they won't stand still, that you are better off using Greater Multiple Projectiles. Slow projectiles may do more damage, but if you can't stay on the target, it's not always best. I've considered leveling up another gem for that slot that would keep the speed and range of GMP, but add some damage, though I haven't researched what would be best for that (if there is something at all).

Edit: With a little experimenting, I think I found a decent solution to mobs which won't stop moving, making slow projectiles cost you a lot of DPS, even with Whirling Blades. I swapped out the Faster Attacks that I have on my Charged Dash (where the build has portal), and put that in place of Slower Projectiles. The DPS only drops a little, and it allows me to attack from a little range, but not too much range. I might experiment with this on the Uber Elder and Shaper. Having a little extra range to play with should make things a lot easier.
