Welcome everyone to my Ice Crash guide for Path of Exile.
I've ran with a lot builds lately trying to find one that suited my playstyle and I've finally found Ice crash I was never really into melee builds as i prefer'd either ranger or a caster but there was something about ice crash I loved. I've tried a glass cannon version and a high tank version both seemed to be missing either the damage or the tankyness, So I decided to make one that had both massive amounts of damage but could still take huge hits and shrug them off, and I'm happy to say I... failed. As it turns out I've made a high damage build that can take a medium hit and recover from it but not a tank due to my using Abyssus, but I can still run every map and clear Atziri so I'm happy with it i just won't be taking it to HC just yet.
Pro's and Con's
Pro's Very fast Clear speed Highly mobile with whirling blades no mana issue's and doesn't use blood magic passive Tanky ISH (I can take a medium hit but I won't be putting my face near the vaal smash anytime soon) Life leech and life regen thanks to the new 2.1 tree Can do Atziri normal (I have high hopes for Uber but i'm waiting till level 90 first) Can do all map mods (I can do reflect maps but I have to do the slowly so I tend to skip them) Con's Expensive Because of that not new league friendly I will do a budget version at some point
Passive Tree
My current Tree at level 78

Video's
Gorge run
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xb0nv7SPVq4&feature=youtu.be If anyone has any requests just leave a post or PM me I'll make a vid and post it within a day or so.
Offensive stat's
Please Don't forget this is on a Level 78 character so I still have a lot of passives to put in.
Increased area Self buffed no charges  With Charges  Concentrated Effect Self buffed no charges  With Charges 
Defensive Stat's
Please Don't forget this is on a Level 78 character so I still have a lot of passives to put in.
The rest of my points will more than likely be going into defense so these numbers will change I'll update as I go 
Bandit's
Oak - Kraityn or Eramir - Alira I went with Kraityn for Cruel as I prefer Attack speed
Gear
My current Gear in Standard
Gem Links and Jewel's
4 Link Ice crash - Increased Area/conc effect - Weapon Elemental Damage - Melee physical damage 5 Link Added Fire damage 6 Link Faster attacks Jewel's At the moment I only have one Jewel slot and this is what I had in my bags at the time You want to look for 1) life - we have enough damage already 2) damage - Area damage or flat phys (cold damage isn't great because it's only buffing the 50% phys that's being converted 3) Attack speed 4) missing stat's or resist's Hope you have all enjoyed my Ice crash build If you have any Questions feel free to leave a comment or PM me, Thanks for reading.

Reserved for budget version

Hi, really nice build, but i am wondering how did you manage to cast ice crash with no mana ?:>
| |
|
Thanks, and I use soultaker axe - "Insufficient mana doesn't stop your melee attacks" let's me attack without mana and the other gems like summon golem are linked with blood magic.
| |
|
Tested the build with lightning strike it work's really well I'll write a bit on the end of this build about it soon.
| |
|
hi guys
i play pretty the same build and its great.... i can reach 190k dps | |
|
Nice build, gonna try this out !
Any other gloves you can use besides Atziri's ? they goes for 30ex in Talisman.. | |
" Thanks :) and yeah you can either use Maligaro's which cost around 1-2 exalts and give better damage than atziri's but no instant life leech so you will be more squishy Or you can use any rare gloves focusing 1 - armor 2 - life 3 - any missing resists and lastly and damage boost's such as attack speed or flat damage never go a miss | |
|
Thanks for the answer, I need Maligaro's for my other build too so I guess I will just buy them now haha
Another quick question for the bandits, I'm guessing Oak - Eramir - Alira but just to be sure ^^ | |
" Sorry it's took me a day to reply I logged off after my last post and i went Oak - Kraityn - Alira but you can go either I'm just an attack speed junkie I Thought I'd put in about the Bandits but obviously not, I'll add it now thanks for bringing it up. :P Last edited by Ahorton2 on Jan 4, 2016, 11:36:01 AM
