[3.6] The Blizz Sorc - Icestorm/Winter Orb CI Occultist - Viable For Everything

Any thoughts on skilltree and items needed if I want to try this build with ES regen (Zealot's oath) rather than leech?

" Yeah, Soul Strike, which is a quiver, so that won't work. VP leech is by far and wide the best option for sustain on a hit-based build like this. Carry on my waypoint son, there'll be peace when maps are done.
Lay your portal gem to rest, don't you die no more. 'Cause it's a bitter sweet symphony this league. Try to make maps meet, you're a slave to the meta, then you leave. |

" While good, I don't think the ES on hit off-sets the need for leech entirely. It is very significant to be sure, but so is the damage taken this league... Carry on my waypoint son, there'll be peace when maps are done.

" With 8k or more ES having Basalt and Granite flasks up and standing still for AA to count, Shaper Slam is a joke! |
|
" For clearing trash is OK to swap LL from staff with a DPS gem if you have the Watcher's Eye with +ES on hit and the Uber lab leech enchant on boots. Vile Bastion ascendancy also helps with regen of ES when you kill packs so I think for this situation LL gem is not mandatory anymore. For hard hitting bosses (Shaper, Guardians, Uber Elder, Dvelve bosses, etc.) on the other hand I would not drop the LL gem from Staff. You need every bit of leech when the damage is huge and constant and regen from Vile Bastion not activating. Editado por útlima vez por lilianmarius#0775 en 13 dic. 2018 11:29:28

Not sure if I am doing something wrong, but the vaaled maps above T12 is a bit hard.
so - Guys, what is your tooltip on IceStorm unbuffed ? I was silenced for telling the name of USA president for 40 days.
I was silenced for stating "I am Jesus" for 5 days. Maybe it is time the deeds of the moderators to become public, so peoples understand that they hired a cheap mods which enforcing their "woke" agenda on players. |

" I fully agree! I would only consider using a different gem than Life Leech for mapping, once I have the Watchers Eye. Any suggestion on a DPS gem? |
|
" I think with the combination of an ES on hit Watcher's Eye, Atziri's Promise, and the leech boot enchant, you can probably get away without LL while mapping. Probably switch back to it for Syndicate encounters, since those hit pretty hard! Mapping setup is probably something like: Winter Orb - CwC - Hypothermia - Cold Pen - Controlled Destruction - Spell Cascade You can also try Inc AoE instead of Spell Cascade, which will result in higher damage and better game performance with an area that's bigger than normal, but not as big as Spell Cascade You can then have a second staff on swap with: Winter Orb - CwC - Hypothermia - Cold Pen - Life Leech - Conc Effect Editado por útlima vez por Bananaderson#3622 en 13 dic. 2018 13:58:54

" The best one you can use is Controlled Destruction. Elemental Focus is higher damage but... wouldn't recommend it for obvious reasons. Controlled Destruction does remove any and all crit increasing nodes you may have on the tree though. You may want to move those into other damage nodes instead. Carry on my waypoint son, there'll be peace when maps are done.
