Spoiler
Pros 6-Link-able Item Icestorm deals AOE Cold Damage + Chilling Ground Low Mana Cost More Gear Option Cons Have to 6-Link the Item Bad Against Corrupted Blood Monsters (Flasks with Remove Bleeding are Required) Hard to Stack Resistance, Since You Are Not Using A Shield or Quiver =D2= Tora's Bow - Bleed on Hit & 6-Link-able Item
Spoiler
Pros
6-Link-able Item Can use Bloodlust with Minions Can use a Quiver for Defence Cons Have to 6-Link the Item Hit Chance is Low (In my case, 61%) Limited Gear Option Needed to use Asenath's Gentle Touch (for the 5th curse, corrupted for the 6th) =D3= Dying Breath-Coiled Staff & Storm Cloud-Long Bow

Explanation 1. Tallon borrowed me his Carcass Jack. 2. Corrupted Atziri's Foible is a Must Item. This build has problem stacking Attribute. 25% reduction is a bless. 3. Alpha's Howl is for reducing mana reserved 4. Doryani's Invitation (Physical Var.) is chosen. It grants 30+ Resistance and 35 Strength With this gear, I can archive max(+75%) resistance. Ultimate Goal 1. Have a 6-Linked Vis Mortis 2. Have a 6-Linked Bow (2nd set Weapon) Flask

 Progress 15th November, 2015

29th December, 2015
Spoiler
> Item Update
Thought > Level 86 is perfect (2.0 Awakening, get 3 passive skill points in bandit quest) > Levelling up is just a bonus > Extra passive points can invest in Life(6), Energy Shield(6), Minion(3) > Extremely good in Soloing using Icestorm > Elemental Equilibrium is good in soloing, not in party > Fall behind in Party (since the movement speed is low, and lack of movement skills) > Using Bow as 2nd set equipment is a wise choice, especially in Party > Split Arrow + Curse on hit + 4 Curses + Curse glove = Full Screen Cursing > Voltaxic Rift is the best Bow (shocked when hit) > Insufficient dexterity (using Voltaxic Rift) can be corrected by glove or quiver Last edited by h22952 on Dec 29, 2015, 9:08:19 AM

You dont have to 6l the whispering ice to get it "6-linked". Just 6 socket is enough.

" For Support Gems, you are right. They are automatically linked Curse are Active Skill. Also, Curse on Hit is a trigger gem that causes a linked curse to cast when the player makes a successful hit. Last edited by h22952 on Nov 13, 2015, 1:02:46 PM

" Oh, ya you are right. Just tested and doesn't work with curses if not linked. Good to know. Last edited by solidghost on Nov 13, 2015, 5:31:32 PM
