[3.0] Pure Cold Ice Bite melee Raider -- Non-VP Dodge Tank -- All Contents Cleared

Trying this build wright now, like it weary much!
Which version do you think will turn out better the one in the guide or the one you are playing now?
Questions for OP:


Any tips on leveling frost blades specifically? Or do you think wildstrike is superior?

For example, I am using the mirage MH - what kind of offhands should I be using stat wise? Cold dmg, crit, multi?

Is multistrike still the go-to link or we using ancestors now? (ancestors seems amazing for general mapping, but not sure what to do on bosses)

Is it worth getting the kitsuni @ 5 links or should we keep a tabula until we can get a 6link of the unique armor?

Any advice for handling the INT requirements early on?

I noticed you using Oskarm and the new ice dagger on your new char - any thoughts on those?

Have you considered using Southbound gloves for this build? I picked up a pair and thought they fit the build pretty well.
Basically i used this build but made some changes and it's very good. you can get an insane amount of flat ele dmg from abyss jewels it's crazy this league. my swords aren't even very good . low aps but good flat dmg- it should be fastest possible and flat is 2nd to that, esp in abyss jewel league. have had no problems with any maps ive unlocked yet

Spoiler



I use ancestral call for clearing and with wild strike it's absolutely insane how fast and clean mapping is. I switch it multistrike for bosses and the dps is very good. I tried frost blades too - mapping is good but not as good as wild strike and i think the single target is a bit better dps but overall i still like wild strike better.

Also i use atziri's splendour just cause it's a decent body. life, lots of res, 100 mana/life on kill makes u invincible while clearing (u basically are any way though). i used hyrri's ire before but it gives no life or res and not very much damage. the dodge is the only thing i really wanted from that. Now that i'm full build basically, i have 73% attack dodge and 50% spell dodge without it (max frenzy, quartz flask) I will probably use the abyss armor since it's a 5 link 6 link (gives ele pen too, since i have lots of non-cold damage from abyss jewels and my swords, so even more than 6l kinda) and it gives an abyss socket on top of all of that. And even more onto that with about 15% max life.

If not abyss armor then i'll use Yriel's Fostering for accuracy, life , 10% attack speed and 50% crit chance (does wild strike count as a projectile skill?)

Will keep using this build and trying new things on it like what the guy above me says soulbound gloves. Sounds good, lots of flat dmg and 16% life on GLOVES sounds very good, non existent downside

edit: tried
, do not use them tbh the 16% life only gave me like 100 life considering how low flat life i already have removing the 70+ i have from gloves wasn't good. it also slows your clear a lot. maybe good for bosses or something?

I just wanted to say thank you for posting this info. I used it to make a VERY fun and successful frost blades build. I might even make a build guide for it it is so good. You can view my profile and the character is xlFreya. I’m level 89 and just finished killing elder and all of his guardians deathless in yellow maps. Cruising through red maps now. Thanks again!!!
Seeing as it's basically the same build, a Shaper kill with frostblades for ya

Gem question:

Blade Flurry -- Elemental Damage with Attack -- Ice Bite -- Added Cold -- Crit Chance (Ele focus) -- Ruthless/Conc Effect


1. Why you recommend Ruthless Gem? Did you read the info about that gem?

"Cannot support channelling skills."

Blade Flurry is channelling or did i miss something?

2. Since you got Blade Flurry damage enchant on your helm, why using Wildstrike?

3. What else (red gem) can you recommend, as replacement of Multistrike?


If any other got the answer, i would glad to hear it... thanks in advance.
