Every 5 minutes, IIRC, but that's based off vague memories from 12 years ago.

has anybody found a way to make glacial torrent work? i cant seem to wrap my head around a good use/itemization for it. orb?scepter? why no crystal sword

What does Trophy Blessing mean? IE Wintry Majesty

glacial torrent is really fucking good

viewtopic.php?f=40&t=50743 is a good enough start

Resitution, you mean? cube with trophy fragments and you get the stats. how many exactly depends on which item, it's 20 for wintry majesty

no.

How much stacked cold resist do I need to still have maximum resists against Phoboss in labs?

Also, my fights with him have been brief - so can someone tell me what it is that he does and how to play around it?

Thanks

To my knowledge it's 92-96 max cold for T6-T10. Aim for minimum 95 and put arkenstone too.

Phoboss has three moves:
1) Ice explosion: he normally just stays still and attacks you. Once in a while you can hear a sound when the ice explosions begin. These are the blue markers on the ground that explode after some time. They will continue to spawn around Phoboss for a while, so you need to run away from them as long as he casts them.
2) Frost bolt: move away from it as soon as you see it, if he casts two in small amount of time you might be dead
3) Ice bolt nova: never go in the range of the ice bolt nova while running from ice explosions. There are markers where the ice bolt nova doesn't hit you, so you know how far you can go. Wait for Phoboss to teleport before you can move further.

Thanks. So he does not reduce my resistance? I thought I needed to stack my cold resistance also? I have 89 max cold resistance right now.

you need 260 flat resistances, that's not for Phoboss but for T9+. Phoboss reduces only your maximum cold resistances

Might be a silly question, but since MO's are irreversible:

What are the best MO's for a Claw Assassin (elemental dmg based)? Innate Weapon Dmg on weapon, Dexterity on everything else?
