Another quick question, could someone explain how freezing mobs works when we are converting all our cold damage to fire damage and using elemental focus? Should both of these things not make freezing mobs no longer possible?

does increased damage with weapons affect this build?

This build doesn't freeze because it doesn't do cold damage. It chills (Icestorm ground, AA) and stuns (Icestorm damage with WM). LOL @ perma-stunned Chayula.

So I noticed that you were using the cast when channeled scorching ray build on the Mara and it seems to be more recent is that build better only specifically on the Mara or have you not updated the witch section? If it is specific to the Mara or the Witch doesn't use it could you elaborate on why exactly that is?

It is not Berserker specific. I think Kelvynn just wanted to do WI as a Berserker, and CwC also happened to be a new/potentially powerful option at the same time. Witch or Templar most definitely work perfectly well with the CwC version.

Surely you would need to change at least some stuff around though right? For example the CWDT setup where you summon a lightning golem and a flame golem if I am using CwC and scorching ray does the lightning golem buff not now do nothing? So presumably I'd use a different golem though the others aren't going to give me any extra damage either, though I suppose the cast speed would let me turn the beam faster it sucks to lose out on abusing the witch's advantage with the extra golem and increased effect of their buffs.

That is just off the top of my head I'm not sure if there would be anything else that might need considering.

So, as to make a list of the changes:

-Replace Spell Echo and Concentrated Effect/Item Rarity for CwC and SR, you may swap another support gem for Item Rarity.
-Replace Lightning Golem with either Chaos Golem or Ice Golem. For Ice Golem you need to recolor your helmet, changing the blue socket of Enlighten to green.
-Remove Enlighten and, as said above, replace for green socket if you're going for Ice Golem, or for red if you need so.
-Whatever you do you will get an extra socket which will be either blue if you use Ice Golem or whatever color you want if you use Chaos Golem instead.
-Items, passives, flasks don't change.

-Edit: You can also move your CWDT+Immortal Call+Flame Golem+Ice Golem to your helmet, and your Blasphemy+Warlord's Mark+Arctic Armour/Discipline to your gloves, leaving an extra socket.
