Broken Cryomancer Build Guide [ Dungeonborne ]

[@dion8895]

Nice explanation of stats, why they're important for the build, which gear works best for them, followed by some good gameplay that showed how well it does under pressure. Nice job!

[@Kushingtonz]

Glad you enjoyed!

[@noba5917]

This is the most thorough build video I’ve seen for this game nice work!

[@Kushingtonz]

I'm trying to bring the community good content thank you for the view.

[@samroscoe944]

Great guide mate, very informative without being unnecessarily complex. Cheers

[@Kushingtonz]

@samroscoe944 thank you I appreciate it 🙏

[@SomeGuyo]

Good video man. Your knowledge and attention to detail on this game and any games in the future will draw people in. Rooting for you.

[@Kushingtonz]

Much appreciated!

[@Mista_Cassla]

Thanks for the guide, also if you made an heirloom amulet and get straight 18% crit on it, with a grey sword you have exactly 100% crit after 4 kills just an fyi

[@michaelbonneville7015]

great video man! can’t wait for the in game commentary!

[@Kushingtonz]

Coming soon and if you wana watch me live swing by Twitch www.twitch.tv/kushingtonz

[@DreadscopeZ]

Nice guide nobody is making db videos that show builds great vid also commentate the game if you can like your thought process in fights

[@Kushingtonz]

A part 2 will be up soon and I will be doing just that. I appreciate the view and the advice.

[@feelingudYT]

gr8 guide. keep on the good work❤

Thanks a ton!

No problem thank you for the view

You're really good! The fight is so fast pace. It would be cool if you voice over your fights.

[@Kushingtonz]

Coming soon I've just had a ton of things to do but is will voice over fights and how I think in combat soon

[@hendriktruong3252]

Awesome Build!

[@Kushingtonz]

Thanks!

[@trimmml7973]

Amazing guide, only have green/blue heirlooms but works at that level too. Just have to aim for dex and int passives. But if I sat all day trying to min max stats on trade, could probs also get will.

[@Kushingtonz]

Glad it helped!

[@Zed88a]

I love when the vids explain stats and gear tk

[@Kushingtonz]

Same here so I had to do it.

[@nop384]

good vid man

[@Kushingtonz]

Thank you

[@anonymouxUwu]

Nice guide 👍

[@Kushingtonz]

Thank you

[@RunsaberSR]

Very nice info. I do something similar. You should really give ice armor a try. Perma bubble is crazy for tanking.

[@DungeonsDividends]

Good video bro

[@Kushingtonz]

Thank you

[@boxinsteadyeddie]

I like the dagger idea better since you can throw them fairly quickly in a pinch

[@Kushingtonz]

You only have 3 and they are for less dps than sword but if your play style fits better with Dagger do it and run those leaderboards

[@keithpearson9749]

damn boy you good lol

[@nothingextra9110]

bro what if you go with soul energy regeneration % instead of dex passive then you dont even have to hit crit i go with 33 % regen and its also very op so please make a video of soul energy regen with 100% or more!

[@Kushingtonz]

@@nothingextra9110 I got you ima try it out

[@jellykingace]

That rogue was coping hard lmao. good shit!!

[@Kushingtonz]

Appreciate it 🙏

[@w1ndy245]

any changes regarding the new cryo nerf today? It seems like this is even more viable considering sustaining soul energy is even more important now. would love 2 know what u think -- great guide btw please continue to make content this was very fleshed out .

[@Kushingtonz]

Yea I'm gonna release a part 3 on Friday I've been doing a beginner series on twitch so my time has been on that. But tomorrow I'm gonna hop on my main account and make a new guide

[@Adanor]

Btw. With this build you can even cast Q on random mob on the way while fighting other players for some bonus health regen just to be more imposible to kill ^_^

[@Kushingtonz]

Super true gotta min max them heals 😂

[@dagger4567890]

really good guide is there a reason you cast curse with orb instead of staff to do more damage? are you trading off the increase in damage for the ability to block? and i notice you dont use the heavy attack on dagger much outside of cc for pvp should i be saving those attacks ive been using them more aggressively especially to clear mobs faster the extra elemental damage is nice. not criticizing more trying to pick your brain on the thought process you seem to have much more success than i have been.

[@Kushingtonz]

@dagger4567890 yea I keep orb out so that I have the ability to block and cc. I use the freeze to cc and get distance so I save them i don't try to spend them too fast.

[@Zodi99]

Seeing the bat at 17:34 im asking myself if its clever to get the Q on it for even more life or does the tick only apply to one target?

[@Kushingtonz]

Tick does apply to multiple targets

[@Zodi99]

@@Kushingtonz so using mobs makes you even more tanky :D nice build

[@majinmesun]

Casting your curse with a staff out does more dmg

[@Ordep_Aviaras]

Is this really true?

[@wooralduk]

@@Ordep_Aviaras yeah , you can check in training room

[@Kushingtonz]

100% correct check my part 2 though I don't even use curse anymore and I do more dmg

[@WickdGamr]

Yes but MS is important also being ready to block is life saving. So do it when you can but do not force it.

[@Lokamp_]

LOL. You almost got killed by a necromancer, he has green items. This is not a broken build. This is a build for killing naked noobs.

[@Kushingtonz]

@Lokamp_ come check out my stream 😎 I kill people in full purps all the time. Also there is a part 2 out I revised the build lol

[@Lokamp_]

@@Kushingtonz I watched the second part of the video, you changed a lot there, which is what I'm talking about - the build in this video only works for killing noobs who have green items. You confirmed my words. LOL!

[@g1nozzz]

WOW! like!

[@Kushingtonz]

Thank you

[@connorstanley7395]

Hey, great video. Was wondering if there was a reason you didn't use an heirloom accessory. Thanks!

[@Kushingtonz]

I found a better piece that's all I usually run a heirloom neck

[@Sgt-Raptor]

you know a lone cryo is usually a super easy kill this build is going to make it more deadly if people continue underestimating them

[@Kushingtonz]

That's the plan. My new build is even more dangerous close range.

[@indigodnd]

The dagger does a lot more damage than the sword when you throw it btw

[@Kushingtonz]

When you throw it yes you are right but for clearing mobs and when you get in a tough spot it holds you back a ton. Preference is a thing also so if you like dagger use it.

[@WickdGamr]

Sword heavu can break blocks though

[@Silver_36]

18:32 wow that was close!

[@Kushingtonz]

Yea I was definitely a lil shook lol

[@МаксимФедоренко-и9п]

I think stamina bonus good to for tanking - 50 shields on each dagger hit, last fire staff tick and each lightning tick. Preferlng stamina bonus instead of will

[@Kushingtonz]

Your getting so much life on hit that you don't need shield so I go for dmg check my part 2 out now I have all 4 perks

[@jksb4172]

Should I craft boots or hands heirlooms? thats because in your recent video you are using hands. You know to save material crafting the bis piece heirloom. Thanks for the guide.

[@Kushingtonz]

@@jksb4172 hands then add the 4 crit stacks to it

[@jksb4172]

@@Kushingtonz the build can work with life on hit on heirlooms only? Or its mandatory to have life on hit in the rest of pieces to cap the minimun life on hit? It is because I dont have to much gold to buy purple items. So I want to have purple heirlooms with the rest of gear in green.

[@Kushingtonz]

@jksb4172 you want to have at least 10 life on hit for it to matter in a pvp fight you can get it anywhere besides hands and main hand weapon

[@jksb4172]

@@Kushingtonz thanks. You were using storm staff, did it change? I have fire staff on purple, should I use the other one?

[@Kushingtonz]

@jksb4172 you can use storm when you are confident in your gear and have around 20 life on hit

[@minhtrivu4728]

The rogue at 14:33 had a legendary crossbow, but he had the dice on it so you coulndt pick it up

[@Kushingtonz]

Yea everyone right now wears one Legendary and then they dice it to keep it safe we have to wait till more are on the market.

[@ru13r44]

Is frost barrier superior to Ice armor? Great build btw. Loving the life on hit on this build.

[@DankManPlays]

Frost barrier is a couple seconds of invincibility, while ice armor only blocks a pitiful amount of damage

[@Kushingtonz]

like Dank said the frost armor doesn't really help when you catching burst dmg but ice block makes you immune to all dmg for a while.

[@sirchillalot6602]

math of the game is off too. i always have between 50 and 60% crit but effectively i crit 95% of the time in game.

[@Kushingtonz]

True things do tend to be higher in crit

[@neytron94]

Does “life on hit” work on DoTs from ice?

[@Kushingtonz]

Yes it does

[@dant3l0k18]

that rogue was just salty, if he knew how to play he'd know justice bringer one shots cheaters lol

[@FreshFish420]

I fought you last night I was ice wizard to but you rekt me lol

[@Kushingtonz]

Gear and build most likely you will get there just grind out some gold

[@iruby8942]

Is % bonus healing stat affecting the healing effect of the Q ability and the heal on hit too?

[@Kushingtonz]

@iruby8942 I havnt noticed that it so if it does then it's not a big difference so I'd rather go cooldown reduction

[@iruby8942]

But its a 5% bonus healing on each piece having the 3 heirloom will make it 15% bonus healing from Q and life on hit no?

[@Angelous922]

Why life on hit and not life steal? is life steal not the same but % based?

[@Kushingtonz]

Lifestyle wouldn't stack high enough to equal the heals of life on hit.

[@greymane4455]

yo, how do you deal with range opponents with this build?

[@Kushingtonz]

@greymane4455 wall away bait them into coming to you or walk around and catch then some other place but you beat most classes at range

[@RS-wc5vo]

yo kushinton what would u say is bare minimum to play cryo comfortably?? like dex + int passives with high crit?? i mean one step lower setup im still playing casuals with greens/blues dont have that much gold and upgrades/enchantments

[@Kushingtonz]

Most def dex and int atleast and then as much life on hit as you can get

[@RS-wc5vo]

@@Kushingtonz what u think about going full stamina after int/dex for solos?? sometimes i get run down by SM/fighter when i lose the distance

[@Kushingtonz]

@RS-wc5vo if you can get your spell off then it shouldn't matter you heal up and just double lighting staff them to the face but the extra life would be good for survival

[@BeccaTKawaii]

A caster class... Just out melee'd a melee class whose specialty is the daggers... Yeah.

[@Kushingtonz]

Crazy lol

[@GhostyLuna.]

whats ur fps improve tip

[@Ordep_Aviaras]

please make a video showing how to get gold fast

[@Kushingtonz]

i have a boss guide coming out soon then I will be making a gold guide and auction house guide

[@tylees5754]

Dagger/sword is not life on hit, it is life on kill, basically still the same but not on hit

[@Kushingtonz]

Life on hit comes from the gear not main hand wep, orb can roll life on hit and staff can sry if I explained it wrong. Part 2 is out now with more details.

[@jordancallahan5893]

I really hate how gear dependent games like this are tbh. You gotta get full epics to even go toe to toe with people, then you lose it all.

[@Kushingtonz]

i can kill someone in purples with a blue kit thats not that hard to get honestly

[@jordancallahan5893]

@Kushingtonz I'm just bad I guess. I almost never win a fight with Cryo.

[@sei_asagiri]

the game is more class dependent than gear dependent. The class balance is horrible in this game, certain classes are way too powerful.

[@jordancallahan5893]

@sei_asagiri I would disagree only because you need gear to reach stat conditions. In turn certain stats make classes op, which can only be obtained via Stat conditions through gear

[@sei_asagiri]

@@jordancallahan5893 If you cant win a fight with cryo then go play Arena mode. Cryo is one of the most op classes in the game, same with pyro and sword master. A good cryo will beat a good fighter 100% of the time, and its pretty much impossible for a fighter to beat a pyro. I pretty much only play Arena mode since PvP is extremely scarce in casual mode.

[@lilCeeski]

How are people having so much gold…Any tips?

[@Kushingtonz]

consistent games with no deaths and selling gear with set bonuses when you find them

[@The_MooseWhisperer]

Do a more budget friendly version of this. This must be 200k+ to build

[@Kushingtonz]

its about a 100k just to roll items and you make most of it back from selling items without the right roles back. sometimes you even roll a great item to put on the auction house and you make even more money than you spend. Should I make a vid on how to roll for gear and make money doing it?

[@austinsullivan5622]

use move speed to close gap and stick to them while hitting

Rogue with crossbow)

[@roli_cannoli]

There literally isn't one, anybody who tells you otherwise is a cryo main. This shit needs to be severely nerfed

[@marcosramirez3609]

closing the gap isnt the problem, the problem is sticking to them for longer than 2 seconds. the only counter i can see is having an equally crippling slow while being tanky

[@ardenyt2435]

Everything great about the build, but one thing…stop hitting those weak melee dagger hits and start throwing those frost daggers more,they do waaay more dmg than just normal melee.

[@Kushingtonz]

@ardenyt2435 I use sword it's way more dmg and the frost is for kiting

[@lockon9245]

Do you think this job need to nerf?

[@ThePapicito]

Would healing% technically be better than the CDR?

for some healing percent would affect the heal built in to cryo curse not the life on hit that your getting and thats a big chunk of the heals.

If fb curse is ticking for 20-30 then a 30% increase, which is MAX distance, is only 6-9 damage a tick. Seems so small as to not be worth being deemed a need.

[@Kushingtonz]

6-9 dmg times 6 or 7 ticks adds up in the long run but the will stat also increases the overall dmg of the spell too.
