3.25 Wintertide Brand Trickster Build

[@njg8873]

hey m8 for years I was a get to tier 3 maps and quit the game and following your wintertide brand i got all my voidstones and Sirius down for the first time ever haha, thank you so much for this build.

[@Billy4321able]

You're version of the wintertide brand build gives me PTSD. I league started it, and the maintenance was so high I swapped to frost blades of katabasis shortly after getting my 4 voidstones. The fact that you intentionally make the playstyle more active with less cast speed and duration is insane to me. You even use a mana flask for sustain like a psychopath. I would not wish this on my worst enemy. Other than that, great build dude. I really like how you creatively solved the armour problem. The warcry tech was pretty cool. DPS is solid, and the build is decently tanky. I'm sure players who enjoy a more active playstyle would find this very appealing.

Thanks man, I leveled 5 chars already, all 85+ and still undecided what to play, but, now it's time for trickster at last :)

[@danielzmatthewsful]

You got to be kidding me just when I re rolled my trickster😢. So glad it's back though

Thanks for the video, love the skill

Never played a Traitor Coruscating Elixer build before, are -flask charge map/altar mods something to avoid?

What, have you some way of knowing I've been scoping your build? I started a few days ago trying to work on your build but not knowing exactly how I was going to get there. I have been getting randomly one shot, but I bought most of the unique items for the build a few days ago so I hope all is good to go. The thing with Wintertide is the clear, it can kill bosses just fine, but the clear is pretty good, it can do most content in the game. Kind of a Jack of all trades. That said I can feel how much weaker it has been leveling. Though telling how much damage you can do, well I have no idea if PoB is remotely close.

[@inferno8008]

U forgot to mention the nerf to cast speed since they shadow deleted the cast/atk speed mods from flasks..

[@TheTalamier]

I league started this build following your guide from 2.24 and have done very well with it. I put my own spin on it to add some tank and have gotten all 4 watchstones and can do T17s. I'll be interested to see what you changed for this league tomorrow. Gotta say it was very cheap to get going with so many on the melee train this league.

[@Owenlol100]

@@TheTalamier glad it worked for you!

[@catsoffon]

Do you have pobb for tankier version?

[@NAMEMERKEN]

Any tips on how to craft the Endgame chest? I tried Dense Fossil and Essence of Woe spamming, couldn't even get above 2k Eva to start with and try to roll for spell suppress. Buying a fractured Necrotic Armor base with Spell Suppress is currently VERY pricey.

[@Owenlol100]

@@NAMEMERKEN you cannot use woe essence because it blocks hybrid evasion, dense fossil only. If Necrotic base is too expensive just roll on torturer garb to start.

[@trungle9425]

Do you think switching out molten shell for immortal cry as hierophant work ?

[@Owenlol100]

I don't think heirophant is the best class for this skill, the guard skill isn't the problem

[@treeorwh2]

How do you sustain mana like that? Do you hold down the mana flask button?

[@NAMEMERKEN]

Yo, could you help me out on what I should aim next to improve after I got myself better gloves? Currently still doing 500k dps less than your endgame version but also missing 3levels at that. Build slaps and is really fun to play. I made about 50div in farming the past few days and got a Headhunter which I sold for 65div. My ring and belt are self crafted, belt being insanely lucky tbh. here is my pobbin code HGmvQPxkMLkb

[@Owenlol100]

awakened gems at level 5 make a very large difference, Elemental focus adds +1 to gem level and Swift affliction adds +5% more damage. Honestly that's about it. Haunted by tormented spirits wand enchant is fun also.

[@stevgooch]

Just a question...can adding the cold skill gem craft from harvest get rid of the spell damage?

[@Owenlol100]

@@stevgooch yes, you have a 25% chance to brick

[@stevgooch]

@@Owenlol100 this makes me sad and nervous. i have the craft ready to go but my balls are shrinking just thinking about it

[@Owenlol100]

@@stevgooch haha this is still probably the cheapest way to craft the endgame wand but you can probably buy a cheaper one with most of the mods for temporary use

[@stevgooch]

@@Owenlol100 update...i got it

[@Kit-G]

I haven't seen WtB in ages. I've got an 85 trick just sitting there. Maybe time to respec.

[@njg8873]

The build is GOD TIER at mapping but tis so strange for bossing

[@NAMEMERKEN]

Since this build is cold dot , it should be able to run 100% ele reflect valdo maps right?

[@Owenlol100]

if you don't use cold snap yes, this build can run all reflect maps since wintertide does not hit

[@NAMEMERKEN]

@@Owenlol100 Thanks man.

[@NAMEMERKEN]

Can anyone help me out, haven't played in a long time. How do I add elder influence to my crystal belt? Nvm I used Essence of Delirium for the chaos res during flask effect. Which was nerfed btw, it's 50% now instead of the 60% in the pob.

[@Owenlol100]

prismatic catalyst on belt

[@kyleevans1129]

Wait a minute is that a mana flask? What is this? 2017?

[@GlacialQueen]

how much currency would I need to transition this to the low life variation?

[@Owenlol100]

@@GlacialQueen probably less than a div, check the unique prices. Just settle for a decent 6 link maybe to start

[@GlacialQueen]

@@Owenlol100 so I can basically transition to low life after getting the unique items? since I'm only around level 75

[@TwoToo_]

there's nooo way your "Target PoB" and more importantly the endgame are both under 3m dps right? how does this clear red maps...? or can u not calculate your own build's dmg
