[1.2.0] Shock Dragon || Life Based Freeze Pulse

------------------------------------------------------------------
Will start by saying this is a W.I.P. and am leveling my scion.
------------------------------------------------------------------

The idea behind this build is to be able to cast freeze pulse and shock for an extra 50% damage boost.
Spell Damage benefiting from both Cold and Fire damage.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Main Unique Items of the Build:

Pledge of Hands - 7Links and with using Kaom Heart we are limited to staff for our linked spells.
Kaom Heart - Massive HP boost from lack of HP on needed unique item slots + Fire Damage.
Three Dragons - For our fire to shock.
Pyre Ring - For our freeze pulse to deal fire damage.
Mailgaro Glove - Crit chance and multi.

------------------------------------------------------------------

KeyStones:

EB - To run MoM and AA
MoM - Lessen damage taken.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Gear Links: ( In order of importance )

Pledge| Freeze Pulse - GMP - Life Leech - Power Charge on Crit - Fire Pen - Crit Multi
Maligaro| Clarity - Reduce Mana - Discipline - Herald of Ice
Three Dragon| Element Weakness - Lightning Warp - Faster Cast - Arctic Armor
Rare Boots*| CWDT - Immortal Call - Enduring Cry - Choice

* With the Boots last slot I had debated over Increase Duration for the Immortal call or Shock Nova.
Shock Nova - Lightning Damage freezes from Three Dragon which in turn if last hit will explode from Herald of Ice. With the new 100% Damage from Herald... Could be nice damage.

------------------------------------------------------------------

Bandits:

Normal: Oak
Cruel: Passive
Merciless: Alira

------------------------------------------------------------------

Conclusion:

I expect this build to work out quite nicely and be tanky enough with AA/MoM.
Plenty of Life and Resistance from gear leaving a heavy damage necklace open.

Im open to any criticism of changes. Debating on removing some of the upper cold damage nodes for cast speed nodes.

*** WILL UPDATE AS I CONTINUE TO PROGRESS ***
