[3.22] Vortex & Cold Snap Build | Occultist | Trial of the Ancestors | Path of Exile 3.22

Hey guys, vortex & cold snap occultist build is here. I got a relic with 19% to Cold Damage over Time Multiplier mod and decided to use in a build.
Vortex is a cold spell that deals damage in an area around the character and leaves a ground effect that chills and deals heavy cold damage over time.

What map mods to avoid?
Something like this:
Monsters reflect X% of Elemental Damage
Players have X% reduced effect of Non-Curse Auras from Skills
Monsters have X% chance to Avoid Elemental Ailments
