Been thinking of trying to make a build like this. Thanks for the thoughts and furthering my ideas.

[@user-oh3oz1hm7f]

Thanks Ive been messing around with these skills but couldnt find any guides on it

[@Sneptics_Official]

Well now there is one 😉

[@mandrson09]

I tried this awhile ago mixed with a lava sweep, fire damage build and saw how much luck and high rolls I was gonna need and just rerolled. Sweet build, gonna a wrecking machine when the last couple abilities roll for you.

[@Sneptics_Official]

Yup, i have been told by multiple people the build might end up getting quite crazy. I have seen the lawa sweep build too, i just didnt really know if it was going to be better, might have to experiment. But going for all the lawa sweep talents might make the build too bloated with talents, even with the extra TBC ones we get.

[@Knecro94]

love the prroof to show em :D

[@Sneptics_Official]

lol i guess i kind of had to at this point. Its kind of my own fault too for not including it, but come on man, some people are just too much sometimes

[@whispur3104]

Let’s goooooo ❤

[@brimstonefootsteps4332]

Great and very well done video! I am excited to put in practice all the work you have done. 1 question, strictly for vanity appearance, is there a way to work a continuous Metamorphosis uptime into this build? You have a new Sub!

[@Sneptics_Official]

Yes there is, 100% meta uptime was always the plan, and van be done as there are other builds doing the same (wild imps build makes us of it too)

[@brimstonefootsteps4332]

@@Sneptics_Official Thank you, this is the build I have wanted to try since I stated Ascension! Is this build on your discord? So far I have not been able to locate it.

[@dimitrijemarjanovic5026]

how do you feel about fitting lava sweep into your empty global and dropping the corruption/wraith bits ?

[@dimitrijemarjanovic5026]

oh, i see it's already been discussed, never mind then

[@rhidley8314]

I have been working on this build for a little while now and it’s coming along well. I think I’m going to run molten shock for flame shock to proc molten core and drop corruptions, as one of the shaman talents increases fire dmg by 5% after casting flame shock, so it fits a little better into the rotation for me and buffs overall dmg more. However, that’s less opportunities to proc molten core overall, but then it would free up some other talent slots by not having to fit in wraith, such as everlasting affliction and honor among thieves. Any thoughts on using a talent slot for Hoplite? I’m not sure if a shield in the offhand would be particularly beneficial for stats. Also, with Hoplite, would that diminish the bonus dmg from Fel Infused Weapon? I’m not sure if it would still be considered to be wielding a single 2h weapon. Definitely a good build with a decent bit of room for customization. Thanks for the info.

[@Sneptics_Official]

Definitely go for hoplite. More survivability in manastorms, and your healers will love you in raid for being easy to heal. There are some shields that give spellpower too, so thats also a damage increase. Glad you liked the video

[@TaylorShawn]

Pretty cool. I got like half that build before I quit lol

[@Sneptics_Official]

That would be the issue with this build, its like assembling exodia. Or getting all the infinity stones

[@tguitars5056]

You can get one more corruption, the shadow arrow counts as corruption. I'm using that and shadowburn/twilight shock to apply with the talent.. Was thinking to try this and now I'm Def gonna try ^^

[@Sneptics_Official]

Not sure if im going to get it, but i will def take it into consideration

[@benjammin2374]

I would still test the ice lance interaction, Battlemage is one of the only REs that procs other procs. Also you can run Shadow Arrow for a 3rd corruption.

[@Sneptics_Official]

Yea, im definitely not going to roll away battlemage just on the word of someone else. So im still going to see for my own 2 eyes if it actually does or doesent trigger frozen chaos.

[@lifestylebeats4901]

you can use 3 corruptions btw - normal, jadfire and Shadow Arrow which uses same mods

[@Sneptics_Official]

Yes

[@stephaneandrey2323]

Nice vid 🫡 what addons do you use ?

[@Sneptics_Official]

You want me to go into all the addons i use in a comment?😆🫣

[@LETMEWATCHVIDEOSIDC]

The dummies on the ice build with deep freeze HITS all targets for the big damage though, that wont happen in dungeons because the enemies get frozen (other than bosses/champs etc). Unless he wasnt using deep freeze on those dummies for testing. Build is SUPER fun though.

[@Sneptics_Official]

Yea, his addon also collects the damage into 1 number. But most things you would use deep freeze on works anyways. Its mainly meant to chunk bosses and bosses are immune to stuns, so it works out anyways.

[@christianskaaning3306]

On raid bosses often it cleaves x3 :)

[@LETMEWATCHVIDEOSIDC]

i just meant that the AoE dummies are all not stunnable so deep freeze does damage x 5 or 6 (cant remember how many dummies there are).@@Sneptics_Official

[@jamalthompson8090]

Hey I’m new. Is fel cleave the only aoe or what else do you use for aoe

[@Sneptics_Official]

Hey man, i can understand where your coming from. I use "chaos meteor" for aoe. I just use that in my rotation rather than chaos bolt. Meteor scales off chaos bolt modifiers but it does AOE damage instead. The reason why i didnt talk too much about it is because i havent rolled it yet👍🏻

[@tomitodorov4937]

ignite goes super hard on this

[@Sneptics_Official]

It really does yea

[@SychPhreak]

From last time i tested in S9 Cleave would not trigger Battlemage... have they changed it?

[@Sneptics_Official]

Any "on next swing" abilities cannot trigger battlemage which inlcudes cleave. But fel-cleave is as instant attack and therefore works just fine. Just like bloodthirst and felblade👍🏻

[@SychPhreak]

It was directed toward the cleave but forgot the others were orginally warrior abilitys too so :P me dumb sometimes xD@@Sneptics_Official

[@christaylor3173]

How is this build looking after the Chapter 2 updates? The soul leech nerf was painful to read about.

[@Sneptics_Official]

No clue, i have benched it untill BC comes out. But i believe people are running a version of this with lava sweep now

[@user-tl1qr2nm4g]

Can you pls make this Build for prestige????

[@user-iq5nk7hy2h]

what is the macros 4 the ice build plz

[@Sneptics_Official]

There isnt any. At least not anything i use, but i can maybe ask cera if hes using one

[@user-iq5nk7hy2h]

thx pro love ur vid alot it help me so much as new player keep the good work and gg on 1k subs hope u reah high rank:D @@Sneptics_Official

[@krusix3275]

Do not waste your time with discussing comments/criticism in the actual video, you could put it in a separate video about it exclusively or put it in the video description talking about it. Its the internet, people comment all kind of things..

[@Sneptics_Official]

Seperate videos about these things tend to be short, and short videos get absolutely no traction for me whatsoever. So i thought it best to include in a longer video

[@redline3036]

I can almost do a lot of melee builds but I’m missing fel infused weapon what the heck the card rate suckkkksssss I’ve very salty about this ascension gods hate me

[@Ennergyiezs]

i see fel infused weapon i close the video

[@Sneptics_Official]

Sheesh, i hope its nothing personal. May the RNG gods bless you
