Scolds Bridle + Cloak Of Flames + 2x Mokou Embrace + Incinerate = perma 40% cast speed?

self explanatory.

Maybe viable?

You bypass the whole negative side of scolds, and end up with +100% spell damage +25% cast speed and damage mitigation.

that could actually work...

what if you use berek's pass instead of mokou? What build needs spell damage but not cast speed?

fire trap build?

I dont understand how do you bypass all negative sides of scolds with this combo, incinerate mana cost is usually high

scolds could by good for CoC, where is no cast speed involved and mana cost is low

Arctic armor negates a big amount of damage inflicted from scolds, and the new templar cost reductions nodes help also.

Cloak of Flames makes arctic reduce even more of scolds damage, so i think it should be possible to run this combo without losing too much life.

I'm running a build with this setup right now. It's an incinerate righteous fire build with Cloak of Flame and Mokou's. I'm basically permanently ignited. I don't run arctic armour at all, otherwise I wouldn't be able to ignite myself. I have 31% reduced mana cost of skills so the damage from Scold's is barely noticeable.

I'm running Vaal Molten Shell as well which procs everytime i cast. It does insane damage.

That sounds insanely fun. Incin is my favourite skill and I really enjoyed the 2 weeks or so I messed around with VMS before ditching it for more reliable defense. Although my incinner does insanely well she's pretty much just bog-standard Incin with insane dps in her current incarnation and hence moderately boring. How squishy is your build? Do you have much defense besides the Cloak and, I'm guessing, LL on VMS? Have you taken advantage of the armour from VMS with +% armour from the tree at all or just using it for teh deepz?

I have about 2.2k armor without VMS and 120% increased armor from the tree currently. With VMS I have around 5k armor. I also have 5 endurance charges and I'll have 6 soon. That combined with Cloak mitigates a good amount of phys dmg. Once I grab the rest of my life nodes I should be at about 4.8k life, maybe 5k with some better gear + more levels.

Most awesome. You've inspired me to do some theory-crafting. I'll probably start out pants-less with the new Templar ele goodness. Let's see what I can do with a breeze down there and flames everywhere else.

Many s for you good sir or madam.

I applaud your creativity SirLoin.

This game is more then just FotM builds, which your theory-craft aptly shows.

+1, well played, nice craft.

Peace,
