So it did prompt me to try an ice shards build for a few dungeons. It was fun but I’m just lacking the gear I need. So 1.5m gold and a bunch of aspect mats later and I’m back at firewall lol. I think I’ll collect some ice shards gear and try it again later. My firewall build is doing pretty good right now , just wanted a change.
Yeah, it's pretty finicky with the gear. Mostly the cool down reduction and mana cost reduction, which you want, both, at least around 25%. At this point you can play without basic attack (which is fun).
I also got the unique chest that stuns and drag enemies closer when you teleport. That's really satisfying
Yeah I found CDs and mana to definitely be an issue.
I know the chest you speak of just cant recall the name this second. Sounds fun , teleport in , frost nova then all , dash out and nuke them with ice shards.
Firewall is fun too for that , I have so much life per second that I can almost just stand in the middle of 20 mobs while I wait for them to come to me before a nova and a nuking them with 5 firewall casts.
I use the enchantment that throws ice shards to frozen enemies. Most of the times I don't have time to shoot before they are all dead after the nova
If you get the passive that has a chance to make your next cast free and do 40% more damage as well as the aspect that lets ice shards pierce, stack a little lucky hit and you can say goodbye to mana issues. You still want the MCR too but this goes a long way.
