Rage Support looks really good, do you think it's worth replacing a current gem?

I haven't looked at it yet, but give it a shot... why not?

Pretty much all of them. Just follow PoBs DPS recommendation for links.

But, if you tell me which you are interested in, I can tell you what links to use.

What class should be the best for a Frost Blades build?

They all work, that's why I listed them.

In this game there is no such thing as "best", just pick whatever you prefer.

Hey, looking into a build kinda like this for my starter. Is there any reason you're not taking impale? It seems really strong.

Someone just came from Reddit ;)

Impale has always been strong, it just wasn't as easy to take advantage of as 3.7 is going to make it.

I haven't added it because DPS is already crazy, the gems weren't out yet and my math skills suck too much to figure out shit that PoB doesn't calculate.

But since people have bothered with doing the math in Reddit, I'll take a look into incorporating it, once PoB is updated.

3.7 Update regarding Impale!

A good friend made a chart:


*Right click and open in new tab for full size

A quick overview of the options without changing tree:

Impale Support = 40% Chance, 59% effect
Dread Banner = 20% Chance, 19% effect
Champion - Master of Metal = 20% Chance

80% Chance, 78% Effect

Mix in some Impale crafting.

I'm really interested in this build. Can you please point out your gem setup for 3.7 (sry if i missed it on the first page)

Hey Corosou,

I played a bit with your build and implemented the new impale thingy.
Here's how the tree looks, impale it's not yet in POB so can't see yet full damage.
You can still play it as FB until you need to swap to DS.

Let me know what you think.
