Got one shotted by stage 1 merciful Izaro. I can usually kill the mobs pretty quick but I also die pretty quick. It was never a glass cannon build while leveling but bosses are definitely becoming harder as I map more. My gear is far from optimized though as this is my first character.

Can someone point me in the right direction as to what stat I should prioritize for each piece of gear? I know boots should have movement speed... that's it.

You are a glass cannon on this build so, you want life and more life on gear. Boots, ignore movement speed, you actually want Kaom's Roots, they give the most life and imunity to freeze while removing all your chance of evading.

Want speed? Get a good Adrenaline quicksilver flask that recharges fast so you can keep running. Adrenaline quicksilver flask can give you up to 70% movement speed, way better then any gear!

Also, get a good Jade flask, with the tree bonus, your evasion goes from 2k to 15k while under flask effect. Without the boots, that is 50% chance to evade an attack. With the boots... I recommend Iron Reflexes passive and its a Phys dmg reduction of 61%, I would not bother with a granite flask if you have a better flask to use. Granote only gives you 5% more phys reduction after the jade flask

Hey all! so here are the most recent changes to frost blades.

1. Tested out the Ele focus problem, found out it was rarely giving power charges as shattering was very very low.

2. The new Gem link order goes as followed.
Frost blades - Ele damage - Multi - Cold pen - Increased crit strikes -DAMAGE ON FULL LIFE (this is the ele focus fix. provides about the same dps and w/ the amount of leech the build has this shouldn't be a problem to upkeep, also gives you back all those sweet sweet shatters!)

3. The new 3 socket gem combo
Cast when damage taken 1 -Immortal call 3 - Summon Ice Golem (you can have CWDT proc or self cast) or if you like the Frostbomb combo. Run no ele.

4. The CWDT/Ele/Flame dash combo is gone. The new combo is as follows
Ancestral Warchief - Elemental focus - Conc effect - Elemental damage with attacks

Thanks guys and hope you enjoy the new links/gem combos!

The new Path of Building link

Have you tried Hypothermia?

It has -10% more damage compare to Elemental Focus, but have a much higher defensive mechanic. With the new mechanic change to Chill, it should have no problem chilling a boss using full Cold damage.

Maybe easier to keep up compare to Damage on Full Life?

PS.

I think Added Cold Damage and Ice Bite looks like a pair of competitors. One has more flat damage, with another one has more utility.
Edit: Done some testing and Added Cold Damage seems to be better than Cold pen at least for my build, at least for now. However when my character is maximized more it might look different. Im gonna keep checking on this

You wouldn't urn the totem set up if you are running kaoms. Not 100% needed tho :)
If you are going for Kaoms Roots on your PoB link, then you should strongly recommend Iron Reflexes and a Jade flask since you just removed 22% chance to evade without pumping to 61% (from 20%) the physical reduction that could be obtained this way.


So i looked at your new data and i fount out that in my case (W/o ancestral warchief, frostbomb...) according to path of building it's better to have this setup :

MS - FB - Added Cold - Ice Bite - Cold Pen - Elemental DMG

Did anyone tried abyssus? It's a flat 30% dps upgrade but i'm afraid on getting OS way more often.
Wich skills would you take for this build from pantheon? There's many to take
I have also just simulated with Path of Building and it seems like Icebite adds more damage than Added Cold Damage while Cold Pen seems to be even weaker than Added Cold Damage. However I am only running 1 Touch of Anguish so far as I cannot afford the second yet. So maybe that is why.
