to everyone worried that it got nerfed, it was just a bug from an update they have now fixed the bug and should be working as intended 1. About the Frosty Blessing Mod's Delayed HP Recovery Issue Cause: Because the number of Frost Vortex traps didn't have an upper limit, Icy Rain couldn't replace existing vortexes to trigger the mod's HP recovery effect by generating new ones. Instead, players had to wait 4 seconds for the vortexes to disappear before they could recover HP, so players would feel as if there was a delay with the mod's HP recovery effect. We have fixed this bug, so now Icy Rain should bring you the combat experience it's meant to deliver.
this is a great build I've been using it for some time now. I do not think the bug is entirely fixed as i am still having to wait for the healing to kick in. It still only heals when the vortices disappear.
Just want to say, this is a great build to start with on hard mode. Just got everything set up at tier two, and it shreds averything so far. The healing also great for hard mode.
I have been running this build for a while now and honestly its brilliant. I run it differently though. I get crit to 38% or so then take anything with weapon damage. Ignore frost vortex apart from the weapon mod that heals you and boost weapon damage on everything after 38% crit. Also for a way more comfortable ride take the cradle roll thing like i do so that i roll into big attacks and recieve less damage and keep healing through it all.
just built it out fully calibrated and with all the mods (a few still need the right suffixes) and it's nice not wasting pots while farming silos. I tank and spank in any fight so i burn through them like crazy, so the healing is nice. I will say it is significantly slower (vs full calibrated shrapnel) on a single boss. the real test is taking this to LEA at the last boss. my husband and i are both shrapnel and were struggling real bad with the ads so one of us has to switch
yeah this build isn't made to outpower shrapnel or shock, they will always do more damage, but this build keeps you in the fight and constantly firing, resing teammates, pulling agro etc think of it more as a semi support tank kinda build
Afaik frost vortex is 2x vortex, icy rain gives +1 so its +30% heal every 4s like this - I use vortex multiplier on my gun for +1 vortex and frost blessing on my pike along with rejuvenation chest mod (+wep dmg + crit dmg +go dmg + mag cap). This means I generate 33% more ice spikes/vortex damage and still have access to 40% heals when I simply swap to melee to collect the extra heals if needed and the 15% on kill above 60%hp takes care of me when dealing with lots of adds - obviously not as powerful for tanking but I tend to run ice tea movement buff and +65 stamina so I can roll from one side of the earth to the other quite quickly lol (also taking advantage of head gear 20% rolling perk).
@@focusedsloth it's a valid theory and it works well especially soloing stuff, 30% heals every 4s with 12k hp is basically 900 hp/s constant while hitting targets. If you get your crit rate and mag capacity to the point you can fire pretty much without ever reloading it's Uber good. The thing with this game is mechanics make everything situational and this will excel in some just like how in novice really high DPS and no tanking ability excels.
@@BrownBabyJesus I'm going to try and find a sweet spot for the crit, I don't think we need to go all out crit, I'm wondering if there is room to run 2 lonewolf and 3 shelter set for the elemental damage Buff to raise DPS while still being survivable I think survivability is going to be a big thing in hard mode over raws
hey thanks for this build. unlike other meta builds I tried, this one is by far the best for me. why? Because I can solo everything without dying as long as I'm not one shot dead and as long as I am shooting someone lol. btw someone from world chat told me as of the latest update, this build is the weakest build currently and I just smiled went to PW, silos, rifts, and became top 1 damager, simply because I didn't reload, I auto healed, and I didn't dodge or anything. lmao. No fancy moves, no delay, continues damage and procs. Repair? mehhh.. one quick 5min blackfell visit can full repair everything. bullets? mehhh.. I only use steel bullets. so cheap. lmao
Thanks for the feedback, I wanted to try and build something with moderate damage but high survivability People seem obsessed with being super dps, all these youtube videos of people stacked with 3 different food buffs and unrealistic battle rotations against a dummy just because "hur dur big number make feel good" I'd rather have something that keeps me in the fight while everyone else is on their back lol
Mine does 2.6k damage per bullet without buff without deviants i use bullseye but with all buff active and best bullet i hit for about 4.5 to 4.8 k dmg per bullet ( i already have best mods possible)
is assault style calib better? or like heavy style for magazine cap? and is it crit rate for its calib effects right? planning to do this build for next season🙏
My damage overtime from the frost is 1.5K in the center and deal 1.2K radius 1 meter enemy is that good? I still dont get the healing Mod for the weapon and I just reach lv 50 yesterday and trying to farm in Silo. I can said the frost is very good and really help me to killing mob especially when I'm finally pulled for the key armor Stealth walker that can pulled the enemy into the center of the frost vortex.
Anyone have tips for the northern pike? Ive been fishing for hours and haven't gotten a single one... I've tried all over the map where all the guides say to fish and its all just barracuda or mackerel or whatever..
It's still a somewhat viable build, it did get nerfed a little, but you won't be able to just stand there and tank everything, it will still heal you after the novas expire, just not when they are replaced
it was just a bug, it should be working as intended now with full heals 1.

Been using this build since day one. another youtuber discovered this. Shelter set would be better. You dont need more than 30 perc crit rate for this.
improve your crit rate by getting blue crit mod from Silo Sigma normal on ur chest, and Slow and Steady is working better for going solo cuz mobs will attack you and deal dmg so your shoe mod will interrupt. And crossbow doing better combo cuz of raising crit rate

The whole point of this build is getting the hp back from the frost vortex ending yet you contradict this with a mod that makes frost vortex last longer and why for extra frost damage when u made it clear in the beginning that the build is about crits not frost damage prime reason why I never copy paste yt build not everyone is good at this no offense
because I'm just using what I have at the moment, there is a lot to be improved with this build and a lot to be optimised, I was just showing the general idea of the build, I still don't know if going crit damage or vortex is better for the build so I tried to balance but thanks for the view even though I'm "not good at it"
2:40 I'm sorry, but you do not pay attention. You're ready to comment and judge this build with misleading facts. The mod you're talking about is, LINGERING FROST. It states, The LONGEEEER the duration of Frost Vortex, the higher the DMG up to 60%. Where does it say in the description, that it "increases" the duration? It does not. Nothing in his build increases the duration of Frost Vortex or the status. Again, pay attention and look at a video thoroughly before you decide to say, "this is why I don't like RUclips builds " 🤦🏿♂️
@@Robbydarkwood sure I’ll admit I heard wrong but I still stand by what I said this build is far from the optimal build for what he’s trying to accomplish I’ve already remade this build ten times better but go off

very nice, thanks... i like your way of thinking..... not just dps dps...
survivability is definitely important in hard mode
I might try this after i get bored of fire build but i only have the shelter set.
you can improve this build by equipping accessories with more magazine and accuracy + stability. heavy style calibration is good too
Yeah this is far from optimised, just something we threw together as a tester last night

what is your mode and stats? and what attributes to go for?
best build
Very good, maybe not best, having a lot of fun with power surge right now
Tanks for the guide! But i can find what calibration blueprint mod you have used on the 3 weapon ( Smg, Sniper and mele)
The calibrations aren't optimised, but the smg you would probably want attack 20% double crit, sniper and melee don't matter
I get 25k dps, thats wirh weapon swap. I want to reach 40k dps at least without any buffs, any guys got recommendations?
just concentrate on getting your crit rate and damage as high as you can
@@focusedsloth I'm using kam, abyss one
Oh for kam it's all about elemental damage, looking into a build for it soon
What accessories do you use on the gun
You don't realize you hit a gold mine with this build. Let's see how we can improve it with the numbers. I'm get back with you soon. 🤙🏾🙏🏽
yeah this is far from optimized, just something thrown together with what I had, I'm sure there is a lot that can be improved, I'll be working on it
is assault style calib better? or like heavy style for magazine cap? and is it crit rate for its calib effects right? planning to do this build for next season🙏
I'd saynprobably heavy but not 100% sure as haven't tried them both out
My damage overtime from the frost is 1.5K in the center and deal 1.2K radius 1 meter enemy is that good?

that pretty good, I haven't tried the stealth walker yet, I think the healing frost mod drops from ravenous hunter
Yes, it's definitely from ravenous hunter
can change it to ak vortex idk what that gun name?
you can do but you would get less vortex triggers as the AK only triggers every 20 hits, not on crit, will be making a AK build video soon
hey mate can you help me get the stuff for this build
hi awsome video..im new to frost..bt i wanna try the kam build instead? do u have a build on it? wud need some guidance.. pls n ty
will be making one soon, on hard mode and can't grind for good mods yet, kinda makes it a lot harder to do build videos
@@focusedsloth for sure will wait in da meantime im too playing around with mods left..cheers
There's actually a really interesting new mod type in the new season that I want to play around with that might bring some extra to builds

Why in the clip you showed is not autoreloading?
It does autoreload, if you look at the ammo count in the fight it keeps going up, I don't quite have the stats to keep it 100% auto fire, but close
what bluepritn calib are u using for the icy rain?
in the video I was using assault style double crit
My heal mods must be buged cause I get no heals crazy 😂😂😂an made icy rain just for heals an the dam mods don’t work
I think they just nerfed it in todays patch, it no longer counts novas that end due to another being made, only ones that run out naturally
