Build Summary

Blizzard, but with a twist!!! We are scaling the blizzard damage for once! It actually has a pretty high skill % modifier and deals quite a bit of damage. Some recent buffs to Avalanche and Frozen Memories aspect have finally made this a viable leveling build.

I usually run incinerate every season, but I want to give this a whirl in season 7

Skills Blizzard - Main skill, we are utilizing it's damage over time because of the newly buffed Avalanche passive • If your mana is fine, drop Wizard node for Mage's Deep Freeze - Great ultimate for damage now, and resets all cooldowns and buffs frost damage Ice Blade - useful for helping lower cooldowns** Ice Armor - who doesn't like a nice barrier Frostbolt - never used, just there to double elemental synergies damage bonus to 36% • Can use it to regen mana if you are in a pinch by hitting a chilled enemy

Enchantments Teleport - for movement (can use Cem Rune as well to generate offering if you chose) • Can drop teleport enchant for frost nova enchant Ice Blades - for primordial binding

Shredding Blades is important for buffing Deep Freeze damage

The only aspects you actually need are Frozen Memories, Umbral, and prodigy to ease mana concerns, everything else if fluff

Build Notes

Gameplay Loop

Cast Blizzard on enemies Deep Freeze when in a pinch, and to boost your cold damage. you can cancel it early if you want by pressing the button again Spam ice blades, always Use Ice armor as needed and frequently Save frost nova for engages on packs

How It Works

Poc-Lum essentially gives us 50% resource cost reduction as for every 5% mana we spend we restore 2.5%. This combo really eases mana problems early. With umbral and prodigy we shouldn't have crazy bad mana problems. The wizard's blizzard node also adds some nice mana regen, but if you find you do not need it use mages for a longer blizzard duration.

Blizzard has a better area spread than firewall for leveling, but typically deals less damage. Avalanche free casts can also be a bit spotty as blizzard does not have the best lucky hit
