Hand of Winter | Weapon Artifact Mace Build for PvP | V Rising 1.0

[@daebibs]

your opponents can take a few smoke breaks during the duel with all the time they spend frozen

[@Skaom]

Hahahah oath

[@CatherinaSnell]

It’s cold 🥶 this days

[@3a_6oHbI]

@@Skaom What kind of music is playing in the fragments from the arena?

[@terribletimmy2]

Agree that 4 weapons is the perfect amount to start weapon swaps. Been meaning to test the artifacts in individual builds more.

[@Skaom]

I think any more than 4 on a regular PvP server is pushing it a bit for the average player

[@jaseyrae6572]

I’ve been loving using the power surge and blood rage? They are so OP! 🧛🏻

[@Skaom]

Glad you're enjoying it!

[@ZlyDay]

Love this build. litteraly what i was going for,except frostbat instead of frostshield... good job! also, any " whip only" biulds ud recoment?? just found the artifact whip

[@Skaom]

Glad you enjoyed it man :D Check out my "Best DPS Build" where its pretty much whip only 🧛‍♂

[@ZlyDay]

Thanks! Will do. PS, earned a sub, keep em comin 😄

[@Skaom]

@@ZlyDay Legend 😁 Got a new one coming tomorrow, stay tuned!

[@bayodashi7283]

Been watching all your content, keep going man! Would love to see a pistol cantered build

[@Skaom]

Thanks mate, appreciate the kind words! Will definitely release a build for The Endbringers soon, I think they're one of the better Artifacts when used well.

[@Hyrriuk]

new to the game i wanna try this one in the open world but what kind of spells changes would you do when facing bosses like dracula and shit like that?

[@Skaom]

Hey man, I wouldn't change either of them to be honest, both spells have their uses specifically for dracula. What you could change if you wanted more damage, would be to use something offensive like Chaos volley. Just make sure to keep frost barrier as it is super helpful vs Dracula and most bosses. Another option is ward of the damned with frost barrier. This is actually my go to for dracula and the little men that spawn from ward of the damned really help with the fight.

[@Hyrriuk]

@@Skaom thanks a lot bro but without counter from snap shot i would get destroyed if i get ganked in pvp no? i'm trying to make it so i can farm pve content (stygian rocks mutant grease ect...) while being able to defend myself if i get ganked

[@Skaom]

@@Hyrriuk keep in mind that Dracula is an instanced fight so no one can gank you whilst you are in the fight

[@ratmemoryupload]

Might I add Crossbow Left Click as to when they're frozen if there is no Q available? Would that make it a bit better to deal more damage?

[@Skaom]

For sure! I'm not sure whether or not crossbow primary or whip primary (if you hit at the tip) is more damage, but whichever deals more would be ideal to follow up on the frozen target if q isn't available.

[@3a_6oHbI]

What kind of music is playing in the fragments from the arena?

[@Yo_Endo]

What’s your thoughts on frost bat for extra poke/freeze? I think it can morph to give shields as well.

[@Skaom]

Definitely viable, would run it over frost barrier if you wanted to use it. Let me know how it feels 😀

[@Yo_Endo]

Thanks bro! :)

[@MrKissmaass]

Clean vid

[@Skaom]

Hey thanks 🧛‍♂️👌

[@diabalanka]

The ice on the whip is so damn frosty, your enemies be like damn that's a cold arse... skaomonkey?

[@matthewsmith3649]

Fuck yes stoked to see this. I've been tinkering with an ice build for agesssss. How do you like it? I found it so hard to give void away.

[@ethanwoodhead8272]

Void is for people who can use anything else

[@Skaom]

Glad to hear it! Im enjoying it, especially the more I practice with it, feels clean. If you wanted to incorporate void with this build, I'd drop frost barrier and when your mace q is down and you freeze them, you can always throw a void down. I'd consider the spell crit frozen proc amulet too if you want to run void. Try that out if you want and lemme know 😁

[@desolation1821]

How about a build for the Artifact Reaper? An Unholy Build.

[@Skaom]

Very keen to cover this. Let me cook 👨‍🍳

[@jaseyrae6572]

I’d be keen to see this too. 😈

[@CatherinaSnell]

Holy Molly ❤

[@spliffiam]

Id swap out the ult tbh, every time I face it, it's so easy to just punish someone right after

[@Skaom]

Something to note is that you can cancel the channel and catch people off guard

[@kelvinirados]

Why do you use the two-handed sword Q when the target is frozen? This build has to be completely focused on dealing damage with the mace's Q

[@Skaom]

Force of habit when using the GS mace combo outside of this build.

[@brommagio1694]

Any ice chillers? (Asking for a friend (Coinz))

[@CatherinaSnell]

Yo are awesome @skaom You do clear on your instructions You should be a teacher

[@whatasave4556]

I have clicked in this vídeo to see something build around freezing and mace Q... And every time you froze someone you used greatsword Q. 💀

[@Skaom]

To be fair I did mace q sometimes 💀 Force of habit though hahah. Just implement mace q instead of GS when using this setup and do better than I did 😁

[@hyperbloq5163]

This my first legendary. But I play pve, still good props though.

[@Skaom]

Oh congrats man! This build is still quite good for pve, should give it a try and let me know!

[@hyperbloq5163]

@@Skaom you think it'll work on Solaris? His angel is getting me mad rn lol

[@Skaom]

@@hyperbloq5163 I would run the frost barrier and also ward of the damned (unholy barrier). I find solarus to be the easiest shard holders boss just because of these two spells. Whenever he spams out those light projectiles, you can spawn so many little men with ward of the damned and do alot of return damage back to Solarus with frost barrier. Definitely try it out!

[@hyperbloq5163]

@Skaom I'll try again, they died pretty easily & I don't use range weapons well enough so I end up just waiting for spells to cd
