It works, if you like spending your time in the craftin chaos and trading game. Those that hate that and just want to play an action RPG, lose out in POE. it has turned into a nearly pure crafting/trade game.


You can play in SSF, I did that the whole of 3.18 and killed all the end game bosses (not Uber). No trading required, but you do need to craft your own gear.
Think this is viable as leaguestarter in 3.19? :)

Yes, one of the best league starter. Easy levelling and good scaling till red maps. With some investments will clear all end game bosses quite easily but just don’t expect getting above 10mil DPS without investing at least 50-100ex (or divines now).
Can this do the Feared?

Was thinking of doing this build or RF Inqui. I know that these two builds are very similar. What are the biggest differences? I know this build is supposed to be much less tanky than RF. Is there a any reason would one pick cold-dot occu over RF inqui? Is cold-dot safer because of freezes, or perhaps more damage?


I did all content in the game with a RF a couple leagues ago, with the typical uber-tank aegis/melding version. Just looking for a reason to choose this over RF again.

Both builds are damage overtime and probably the only similarity.

Cold dot is just as tanky with Aegis/Melding combo 300k ehp possible with 25mil + shaper dps.

Cold Dot has way higher single target damage potential with Vortex/Cold Snap


There is no freeze from cold dot. Freeze can only be done with hits not the damage overtime. However, you will be applying chill which slows them down.

RF is much faster mapper by default


You can make cold dot a much faster mapper with freeze and shatter from my Herald Of Ice modified version. Not cheap though!!

Was reading the nerf-ifesto just published. I expected nerfs to Ashes, Aegis and Melding. Well the good news is that none of those were changed (on standard). Instead GGG nerfed... reservation efficiency. I must admit I didn't see that one coming.

I've invested over 100ex into a version of this with +1 Aegis, 21/20 Arrogance and perfect Ashes because otherwise the auras wouldn't fit. Guess that won't work any more. Thanks GGG.

Ah well, aurabots will remain OP while the rest of us will lose an aura. That's balance.



The reservation nerfs are not that bad at all for the TOP END. It does hurt a little for league start and mid budget though

I tested my 30mil POB without the mana mastery and changed life reservation mastery to 20% and aura effect to 10% in custom config and actually gained 5mil DPS with a little tinkering


LMAO people are over re-acting



All I did was add a reservation cluster instead of my curse effect megalomaniac and I dropped points for jewel socket that used melding and grabbed season of ice wheel.


35.6 MIL DPS!!
No auras lost!!
No Enlighten Gem required!!

You're using a +3 shavs, ashes, mageblood, megalomaniac, Forbidden jewel combo, double corrupted reservation helm and other stuff in this with crazy yellow gear. That isn't something a new person can even think about getting or farming without being super efficient. It's also not even using wintertide which OP is using.
POB shows -strength and dex requirement...am i missing something?

I will quote myself "TOP END" Everyone that's a regular here knows I always make min-maxed versions of cold dot. Shak provides only the league starter it's not meant to get you to Uber Bosses, 100% delirious or Wave 30 Simulacrums.

I am showing what's possible if you invest into the build, not theory crafted either!! I crafted all this gear myself. There is a lot of us from this post going back 3 years that still use the old version of Shak's cold dot that is Vortex/Cold Snap because let's be honest Wintertide just lacks the single target damage scalability for Uber Bosses and Harder content.
