Very very detailed guide on Frost/ice AoE templar ( if u are a new player check this ^_*)

solid guide

Cheers for the awesome guide Rambi! so much info and you have opened my eyes to a lot of game concepts...
I am working through your guide now (lvl34)

Few questions;
> Any tips for not running out of mana all the time? i am spamming Ice Nova and find my pool is draining way too fast. i notice out of all the damage/gems listed, Auras have the cost reducers. i will also try to get some items with extra mana. i have 3 flasks of health and 2 of mana and am following your passive skill tree to the letter. I dont have a totem gem yet, i am using Zombies and these take a fair bit of mana.
> from the gems below, i am going to start buying ones i am missing. any guides for how to buy items on the market? i dont even know for example what a Faster Casting gem should cost. there are so many acronyms. TL DR?
> I have a gem changer (levels up a gem) and 5 alchemy gems. are those even worth swapping for some of the Gems listed below or should i just try and farm them? currently in Act 3, first pass.

currently the only gems i have are Ice nova & Freezing Pulse... excellent right, i have about 30 gems in my chest all very much not what i need...


4L item - Main Damage
Ice Nova (cold dam)
Faster Casting (sup)
Extra Cold Damage (sup)
Life Leech (sup)

4L item - High AOE damage
Spell Totem
Freezing Pulse (sup)
Greater Multiple Projectiles (sup)
Faster Casting (sup)

Auras 3L
clarity + Determination + Reduce mana (3L)
Discipline + Grade + Reduce mana ( 3L)

cheers again mate, im looking forwards to building my char up. its great to have lots of end game experience as i was totally lost with the passive skill tree, linked items, AOE damage etc
