[3.17] Cold Shockwave Totem - Freeze everything - 6 totems

This could've have been an interesting build. Unfortunately, there are way too many things missing from the guide.

I wish the build guide creator would've put some more thought to it.

As it is, it looks like all damage and no defense. Just another glass cannon it seems.

Oh well, on to the next interesting build. Luckily there are plenty to choose from...
Sorry for the delay guys, i took some time to record and upload some videos

I will also spend some time to improve the guide and reply to the various questions


I also managed to finish my Shield!

+1 totem
+2 minimum frenzy

I got some nice T1 mods too!

First of all thank you for the build I am looking forward to getting it going. Secondly, I'm new to the game and finding that figuring out the build is a little difficult. It would be super helpful if your guide had gem links contained in it. I am using path of building and it shows boots with 4 red links when it is actually 4 blue. Could be I am doing something wrong but having that in the guide would assist.

Hi man! Just wanted to say a huge thanks. I've been playing POE for a few years and totem builds are my favorite. I thought that toems are pretty much dead this league, but this is hands down the strongest build I ever played. First time I maanged to shred end game content. Thanks for sharing this awesome build!

Edit: I also took the other 10% mana before life ascendancy instead of the arcane surge, abd I must say that with 4k hp + 1.5k es it doesn't feel squishy at all.

pretty ridiculous killed catrina lvl 83 at lvl 80 within 3mins....

Good fun
What causes the freeze and does it freeze bosses?
I really like the idea of this totem build. totems have always been a favorite of mine and want to try something different.

One thing I seen is the divergent shockwave totem gives 40% cold conversion at 20 quality. you could combo that with cold conversion bench craft on gloves to use some rare gloves instead of hrimsorrows. could get some damage, life, and other resists out of glove slot now too. definitely trying this build soon.

Would recommend updating your original post with any new videos or updates as most dont look through comments
Worth pointing out how strong boot enchants are for totem builds; crit if you haven't crit recently or pen if you haven't killed recently are real good

Also, assassins mark looks much stronger on bosses than frostbite
