[3.25] Ice Dancing Queen - Icestorm/Cyclone/CI - Viable For Everything

Does anyone know how well this works on console? I.e. with boss targeting?

Hi! Thinking of swapping to this build. Looking for something that can tackle 40/40 this league. The obstacle is Sanctum and ToTA challenges. Is there an effective way to gem swap totems into this build for those 2 mechanics?


Not sure you need totems for Sanctum. With enough damage, you'll melt and freeze every mob. It's going to be much more effective than trying to fit in totems. I cleared Sanctum efficiently back then on a Flicker build, and that has absolutely no way of evading resolve damage. Get some nice relics like resolve on affliction (they're tradable now) and you should be good to go. Also keep in mind that depending on the challenge, buying lower-level books can be an option to make it easier.

As for the league mechanic, I don't play it much myself, but I hear you don't actually need a build at higher ranks. It seems that at some point, you're getting one-shot and deal no damage anyway. Some people cleared higher ranks with a Tabula and two links only. Look up some Youtube guides and it should be better than trying to fit in totems.

Thanks for the response, but I'm interested in finding out if I can use totems with the build. If I want to cheese the mechanics, there are plenty of reddit and youtube posts showcasing those options.

You could change CWC and Cyclone to Spell Totem support and another totem-related support gem, I guess. I can't see how that would be very efficient though.

Gotcha, multiple totems support I guess? Idk if it would be or not. I've just seen people swap from regular TS for mapping into TS totems for sanctum and was wondering if this build could do the same. Mapping with CWC cyclone is bae.

Multiple totem should be pretty mandatory if you don't have any other source of +totems on tree, as it triples your totem amount.

However, it might also be crap if your totems share the 5 maximum storms. You'd have to test that. If you drop three totems and they instantly top storms off, you'd be far better off with another support.
So I got kinda lucky with this drop and I was wondering if we can add it to the build, would the reservation and maybe flask mastery be worth it? What would they replace in the endgame tree?

Or better off just selling it?

Hi, thanks for your build! With the start of the new season I decided to platinum the game on ps and what you created is a really well working one-button melter so far. It wasnt easy to gear up since console version trade is shitty, however i finally hit 4.5k ES and got almost fulfiled your suggestions for early mapping gear. I got 2 newbie questions:

1. Resistances. Im not sure how I should understand caps. Currently I got following
Fire 73(104)
Cold 75(89)
Lightning 75(85)
Chaos -60(60)
They are pretty solid (besides chaos) but these values are with Purity aura. Should i pump them more to cap them without aura? Im not sure how it work, I noticed that overcap gives additional dmg combined with flask, but really dont know its enough for now or not :)

2. Currently im on 82, 4.5k ES and mainly i focused on clearing atlas - im around T6-8 now. I havent finished uber lab yet. When i should move from leveling passive tree to another one called "budget version". I know that this moment is 'fluid' and there is no certain moment for that, but maybe you can add some info about that (for example "please stay on leveling tree until you have 2x6S staves, asramentis, stampede and cluster jewels).

Probably i will post here more bs in my platinum way. Im little afraid how build will work later with such empty marketplace, but believe that it will be strong enough for trophies.

Wise Oak only checks the highest/lowest resistance. How much you overcap doesn't add damage.

The build keeps Purity forever, so no need to cap without it.

The only use of overcapping your resistances is to prevent curses/altars that lower your resistances from bringing you under the cap.

Switch to budget version once you can slot Split personalities. The tree is made to accomodate those jewels.

Honestly, I don't think it's worth trying to use. The reservation is nice, but ultimately, we have other ways around it. Flask mastery is super meh on this build. Considering it's worth 35div, you're really better off selling and buying more useful stuff.
