[3.11] Aquarism's Ice Shot [All Content]

Change Log:
11/12/2019: Added temporary leveling guide

My thoughts after a good night's sleep and reading the patch notes:

Nerf: Multimod reworked, some good affix removed albeit not affecting this build. Point blank big nerf, it is not a must pick now, Hyrri Ire got a huge nerf in added cold damage.

Buffs:

"

Ice Shot

No longer leaves Chilled Ground on impact.
Now deals 130% of base damage at gem level 1 (from 120%), up to 174% at gem level 20 (from 147%).
Now Chills enemies as though dealing 100% more Damage at gem level 1, up to 195% at gem level 20.
Now gains increased effect of Chill as the gem levels, up to 19% at gem level 20.

Ice shot has 27% more dmg in end game at lvl 20, easier to chill enemies and increased effect of chill.

pairing with potential Awakened Added Cold/Cold Pen/Elemental Damage with Attacks Support. This might just offset nerfs and be even better, of course with legacy Hyrri ire it will be bonkers.

Barrage might be removed from this build in favor of Ice shot with Barrage support.

I will, this is just a very rough one. I will refine it in the coming days before patch is released, a better link will be there when official fourm is updated.

With the buff to low lvl bow base and ice shot, this is now a viable league starter whereas previously it is quite hard

Hope league start goes well for you

Hey Aquarism, I was wondering what made you go the rare quiver route vs a unique one?

reliable frenzy generation when there is no adds. this way we can sustain 6-7 frenzy charges agasint shaper cortex etc.

Thanks for this guide.

I'm just coming back after a few seasons break. I've never done Elder/Shaper etc so considering going this build or Molten Strike Jugg for starter. Is this build capable of doing end game bosses with somewhat ease for a 'newbie' or do you recommend the Juggernaut builds?

Thanks again and have a good Christmas!

Hi! nice guide <3
You write that it does lower dps in temp league. Is it viable for killing end game content without the lagacy gear?
