Build Variants

Enigma makes us very squishy, but it's teleport works with Flickerstep (which cannot roll +Evade charges btw) to reduce our Deep Freeze cooldown

  • Flickerstep for reducing ultimate cooldown
  • Orsivane for damage and free enchantments
  • Shanar's Resonance the primary damage scalar for Deep Freeze
  • Aspect of Armageddon for damage scaling
    • Aspect of Biting Cold or Aspect of Shredding Blades Kullean Transfig
  • Signet of Pelghain for ramping up damage on enemies each time Deep Freeze: Bonechill removes their cooldown. can also be used as your charm
  • Aspect of Frozen Memories is a flex slot, but because enemies are perma frozen... we likey
  • Splinter of Hellfire for damage
  • Splinter of the Black Soulstone for damage
  • Flex Splinter of Pain & Splinter of the Mother for last slot

+7

Phoba of the Threefold is ran because Phoba of the Frozen Sea's 2 set only applies to Direct Damage. This build is Cold Damage over time.

Mana on Mastery isn't necessary, but because we have


Hellfire Torch: If you don't have it use Berú of the Threefold

  • Hellfire Torch is a Mythic Charm from a quest that can act as +1 to Phoba of the Threefold 5 set, letting you drop your worst charm for it.
  • You must equip the Hellfire Torch charm first, then it will allow you to slot in Tal Rasha's Iridescent Loop. You cannot equip Hellfire Torch while you have a Unique Charm already slotted.
