I haven't played a normal assassin yet, but I'll see if I can get one of those skills.

(dual needle for barb) for mid and end game , which went fine with druid , barb , sorc (2h sword sorc no longer a meme) and paladin , hopefully the next patch will somehow remove it's annoying and pointless 0.8 sec timer so that it may be more fun to use



I tried the dual wield winter avatar setup as well. I have an azurewrath I might switch out for one of the frost needles though. I'm not sure if the + skills would be better than the -100 to enemy cold resist from Azure. I do however think that trying the build with full charms and completed gear will be viable. I tried it at 110-15 and mowed down cows.

I can do this. Any specific other gear you had in mind?

Icetomb vs Nat
Gloves, boots, belt, rings?

I'll try a build that is decently obtainable and then throw on some gear and cheese the skill to the max, like 20 Atomus jewels or something like that.

I can try this.

I also have a Vessel of Retribution cotw that would go well with the Vessel claws. I'm wondering if using those with the pally set belt would give you neutral skill perks.

well without Icetomb you will not reach reasonable amount of pierce, since all pierce items do not work with absolute zero. And tbh I had super good but on realm in one season obtainable gear in mind. I think Henchmen Gloves you can only beat with a really nice craft.So besides Icetomb, Absolute Zero and maybe Henchman Gloves one has to go crafts...

Some builds i'm planning

Dual Azurewrath Barb with Boarfrost and cold procs - tons of Vita, tons of cold damage, 200% cold pierce.
Vessel Sin
Glacial Nova Druid
Physical Guided arrow/barrage druid.
WW assassin with Hammer of Johl and Way of the Pheonix/Gryphon
Galeonas Sorc
Mana necro
Sumodin with as many summons as possible
Sumazon, neutral, no devotions. Probably Java
Feedback sorc with Orb of Anni
Hamstring Treewarden, Grotesque bite, Gotter, Njimm
Harbinger neutral Zon with Danmaku

Builds i'm currently trying
Fortress Barb with 100% pierce, Arrowswarm helm/bow swap - sucks atm, might try warmonger to test is AOE attack works with bows.
Deathgaze tree warden using CotW - ez mode
Whirlwind Pally - massive ww damage but can't hit anything. Will use Metalhead for itd so attack rating doesn't suffer. Elemental band for more damage options. Needs more pierce since the stupid maul is broken. If maul pierce was working, this would be a crazy build I believe. Pally can get nearly 20k total stats with pretty obtainable gear. Using Atomus jewels in everything, that could be 30k.

Whats a Mana Necro?

And do you also want to try "special builds" starting from zero? I did this with summoning neutral ama and casting barb for example

Steppe sleeper boots gives cold damage and str.

Icetomb
Staff
Druid helm with pagan rites vs craft helm
Henchamn gloves
Steppe boots
Balckdwarf

without jewels of MO's I'm hitting 120% pierce and 135+ cold spell damage with perfect gear before skills/abilities.
That leaves the belt and rings. Crafting a druid helm with Nova would be different as well. I think we can easily reach enough pierce and good spell damage to make this work.
