2.3 - The Frost Nuke™ - Crit Vortex + Herald - Full screen explosions

Hi, great build!

One question though, i'm currently level 57 and i'm having a hard time with bosses.

I have 5 link vortex (vortex, spell echo, critical strikes, added cold dmg and cold to fire)
I have the teleport 3 linked and the Herald of ice 3 linked.

Bosses kill me fast, and i seem to deal very little damage to them with 47% crit chance and 5.5k dps?
Also, i really have to stand next to the boss in order for vortex to hit. I did take some area damage notes but it's not even close to your vids.

While leveling I used frostbolt + vortex.

As for the rest, vortex has insane base damage for a spell so you should be doing plenty.

1.3 crit firestorm: #1280086 / 1.3 crit Ice Nova: #1219809 / Flame Nova (sire of shards incinerate): #1359847
Sure i do alot of damage to non bosses.
With what do you link Frostbolt?
Do you by chance have skill tree progressions? Im not really sure what to take at what point while leveling
Any recommendations on what to look for when shopping for Wands for this build, in order of priority?

e.g, does it have to be Imbued, Tornado or Faun's Wands, what mods to look for first etc.

The base doesn't matter for anything but the implicit. I prefer spell damage implicit.


In order of priority:

Spell damage
crit chance for spells
crit multi
flat damage to spells
cast speed

What tree are you looking at? I don't have any keystones on my tree at all lol


Fire leech is from the corruption on my amulet.
