Hey helpful folks. This is my second time playing this build and had a great time min/maxing it. Trying to finish up my 36 challenges now while making small improvements where I can find them.

At this point, I would appreciate any feedback you all can offer to improve things further. Mostly, just need to know if I am missing anything obvious in my tree/gems/gear, etc.

Damage seems good, but the occasional one-shots still happen. At 7900es right now and can't find a way to get above 8k. Anyway, love the build and would appreciate any feedback you all can offer.

Hi, I'm looking for help, I'm playing this build on my first experience with SSF. Now I'm running T 14/15 maps reaching AWK5 for my first Sirus, I feel like I need a lot more DPS (bosses tank so much my dmg) . I think my biggest issue is my wand, I found it with cool mods on early maps, but now I can't get a better one. Any way to get or create a good wand for this build without a lot of fossils or harvest? And if someone sees something that I can improve tell me, any help will be appreciated

Tree:
Your tree is pretty inefficient (do not connect with 4 nodes at the top when one in the middle is enough). But even by optimizing it you will get 10% more dps at best.


Skills:
increased duration on ic cwdt is a bit wasted, as well as flame dash faster casting.

You need Frost Bomb in your build. The debuf is massive.
You need to link Bonechill to cold snap. It lower CS just a bit, but Bonechill's debuff apply to vortex too.
You can cast Tempest shield manually or linked to cwdt.

I see you level vortexes in your offset weapons, good.


Gear:
For your sake I hope you find a Shavronne and a prism guardian. Keep your regret preciously. Even a 5L shav is a massive dps boost. You can farm Shav's card in Cells and Scriptorium (or even act 9), but it's tedious.

Try to get +1 and/or cdot on your amulet. Craft clusters and cobalt jewels with Harvest. caster, defense and cold reforges are aplenty. It's actually pretty easy to craft jewels with harvest, and so pathing to jewel nodes is really worth.

Delve to lv 180+ hunt cold nodes for a frostbite on hit ring. This will bring you Dense fossils too. Single resonator dense fossil can craft some sick helm, gloves, vall regalia, and even shield (but you want more than es and resist on the shield, plus if you can go LL, investment in the shield with be moot.).


Other uniques you have to keep an eye for:
- Energy from within (LL Mainly).
- Thread of hope (divine to get a "large" one), but you have to kill sirus
- Sirus helm
- Rumi's Concoction flask (CI maily)
- Unintuitive leap (if no thread of hope)
- Cinderswallow (Catarnia's drop)
