So, is this the best possible setup for a 6L Freezing Pulse?

nice, but how can you leech ES during battle?
I have a 5L only, but have to spend 2 sockets for life & mana leech. Poor DPS of course

Yeah, I respecced as bit (4 points) and got Ghost Reaver.

DPS dropped obviously, but at least now I don't get gibbed by burning maps. Still deciding whether I'll keep it or not since it still doesn't help against stuff that can just kill me in 2 shots.
If I ever get the new unique wand, I'll drop my critical gem for power charge on critical I guess.

So I'm doing the High survivability CI build using Body and Soul (Courtesy of kuromahou) build, do you guys suggest that I go for the Shadow's tree before the Templar's?


The build:

I have one question. When starting this build once you have filled out the Witch primary tree nodes needed. What direction do you recommend branching off toward first for better survival? Do we go toward Shadow first or Templar?

Templar, at lower levels. Shadow tree at higher levels, as you can freeze more often, meaning less damage coming at you overall.

I would say:
HC, go templar first
SC, your choice, I'd rather go shadow though.

Thanks. I am not a hardcore guy, so I just like to mess around and enjoy the game, but I appreciate the information.

So how is everyone finding this build post 0.11?

Haven't played for a month or two. However, looking over the patch notes I believe that
a)CI is slightly more viable then post patch
b)Some way to keep your ES recharging, such as through life leach or w/e, is far more important

Then again, I haven't played this patch, and I haven't looked through the forums too much, so those two points were from a quick glance through the patch notes.

Just poking my head in here to say thank you for all your work. *hands a virtual ice cream* (not made from the ex-zombie over there, I swear!)
