Been looking to get back into Ice Shot after dropping it many many leagues ago. I like your build and the detail you went into in the PoB, so I'm gonna follow it and give this a shot (pun intended)! Thanks!
Helpful, thanks. Only into HC personally, and the idea of buying gear rather than finding it (SSF) is the antithesis of interesting gameplay to me, but I think there's still some useful stuff here.
your gear and gems you're showing on youtube and on PoB are totally different, can you please update the gear/gems and links on PoB, i wouldnt mind trying this
Thank you for doing this build, im gonna be here waiting for the updates! Im not gonna lie, i was waiting for lightning arrow, i love that skill, but im gonna try ice shot this time.
Only gem I ran into that changed is call to arms which should be autoexert , I haven't had fun with a deadeye since affliction league. This build is great
Looks awesome!! Although the transition from lvl 74 to lvl 89 tree looks daunting with the amount of jewels needed. Is this still league start viable even for a noob like me :3
Absolutely! All the jewels except the interrogation have been below 1 divine at league start, especially the medium clusters that are 20c tops. I'll add a lvl 89 tree to the pob with no clusters and no thread of hope so you have an idea of what to aim for if they end up too expensive.
i have basically 0 game knowledge and im about to be done with white maps with this build with basically no problems! my only question is right now im relying on bismuth + purity of elements to cap my resistances, should i be focusing on getting my resitances to where i only have to rely on one?
You can rely on both without problem, but you should aim for ~90 res (15% overcap) just to make sure you don't die instantly to curse map, reduced aura effect map and monster exposure.

Ok, I think I'm sold. I'm not new per-se but I've only run Boneshatter 2x Frostblades 1x and EA ballista 1x so this seems like a lot to take in but lets see how I get on!
Essence, beast, legion, altars, guardians, invitations, destructive play are all really good. the build can easily get you to 2 voidstone but you'll have to invest exponentially more currency in your build to tackle harder content
À toute les fois que je me dis que je suis décidé sur mon League Starter, je trouve un autre build que j'ai le goût de faire.... tu fais chier avec tes bons builds toi! haha
I've almost got this properly online, it's a really nice build, the bismuth flask tech is inspired. I am however struggling to get the appropriate colours on my bow, G-BBB-RR is a big ask! Any suggestions for a different setup until I can get it? Currently using Added Cold and Returning Proj instead of both crits and clearly missing out on huge DPS. Nice guide!
hey you've nailed it! added cold and return are good substitute for the crits support. Even later on if you hit 3 R instead of 3 B you can replace crit strike multi for damage on full life.
@@mcnugget9999 I share your pain, I also spent 2 div+ on chrome, it's weird that bow archetype have so little green supports compared to melee having so many reds and spellcasters having blues
It would make it much stronger but require some flask adjustments which I haven't gone into. I would look on poe.ninja what people playing LA use with mageblood and take inspiration from there.
Any advice for higher level gear? Most of the stuff in the pob isn’t expensive and I’m too noob to know what/where to upgrade. I’ve got quite a bit of currency from getting good rng with harbingers and the selling corpses scarabs etc. but don’t know what to buy
This build has virtually no ceiling; watcher eye, cluster jewels, progenesis, massive thread of hope, ancestral vision, sublime vision, phys bow + Headhunter or tri ele with mageblood, Omniscience vs non-omni vs power charge stacking badge of the brotherhood. So many different paths that can lead to different experience with all their pros and cons, in fact, too many for me to confidently go over them. I'll say headhunter and mageblood are definitely easy to implement without changing much and give a very big boost the the build if you can afford either
I'm not sure I understand how tornado + arcanist brand is doubling your dps while it's up. In your explanation you state that the double damage comes from ice shot firing through the tornado which causes the cone to hit the enemy before the arrow pierces the tornado and hits them again, but in the visual demonstration of the setup in action afterwards it appears that the tornado is going to fly around in random directions and not necessarily create a lineup for this to occur, especially for all of vaal ice shot's clones. How are you guaranteeing that every shot that pierces the tornado is causing an explosion that also hits the brand's target?
ice shot's cone aoe is bigger than the distance that the tornado fly around from a branded target, I've recorded myself to compare dps with and without tornado and the conclusion is that tornado doubles your damage
@@YanKuch the cone appears behind the target hit though, I don't see how it would reliably hit the enemy if the tornado has also travelled behind them. It's just illogical and other theorycrafters I speak to are saying likewise.
@@AllocatesBeef arcanist brand resummon the tornado on top of the target. the tornado doesn't have time to fly away, it gets resummoned straight on top. Just to make sure I had tested it by putting 2 clips side by side with the same gear against the same boss and went frame by frame; it was double damage. And having played the build a lot by now, I can tell that there are no mistakes here.
@@YanKuch unless you can provide those clips I'm going to doubt this, in your video demonstration the tornado is clearly travelling within its 1 second lifespan and it can travel away from the boss in a direction that means that you're no longer reliably double hitting, especially with all the clones from vaal ice shot.
@@AllocatesBeef From 3:29 to 3:32, you can see the tornado doesn't have time to move because it gets resummoned via arcanist brand. Then, at 3:33, arcanist brand expires, as a result, tornado enters stage 2 and the boss leaps away, the only time where tornado is not on top of the target. If you don't trust me you can always try with 100% poison chance + resolute technique in PvP.
Man... Mixed feelings here.. Watched the video. Got super excited, but then started thinking it's a bit of a bait and I'm worried now. I'm somewhat new. Just my 3rd league and never done a league start before. Is this just objectively worse than LA, which I don't particularly love because i've already played it on the 2 previous leagues?
if you dont love LA you wont love this, its worse for denser content but better for single target, the playstyle is virtually the same though so you wont enjoy it
@@YanKuch I like the la play style quite a bit, but my main concern is it’s just far worse for most cases. Is the single target better enough to make up for the lack of clear speed if budget it’s small?

I just returned to POE. How can I get so many of-colour sockets on both 6 links reliably ?
the best way right now is the benchcraft trick paired with the new Black Morrigan beast to 6 link the bow after.
Start with 2 socket item, force them red and blue via crafting bench
go from 2 socket to 3 socket via the bench, if it's not off color, go back to 2 socket,
then from 3 to 4, again going back to 3 socket if not off color
all the way to your desired colors and 6 sockets

dang i was all settled on league starting TR but this interaction with tornado looks too fun not to try. thanks :)
It's so satisfying when you line everything up at the same time!
Same I was so set on DD or LA but I did ice shot like 3-4 leagues ago and had a blast then I seen this 😭

Hi, awesome guide! Would it be possible to go Duelist or Shadow for this?
No, deadeye is too good
are you using like a multishot? im seeing you firing multiple arrows but i dont see it in your buildin POB?
What bow cosmetics you use. looks very cool
Voice for asmr. Nice guides
I want to league start this but I'm worried about the Bismuth flask running out during a pinnacle boss fight with no trash mobs, such as Sirus, etc.
you need not worry about a flask that takes minutes to deplete in a fight such as sirus. You will die before it runs out anyway
@@YanKuch you can't be serious xD fine i guess I'll have to stack some ele res on gear and drop the flask
