ItFightsBack's Notes
This is the full build guide for my cold snap vortex raider that I played to achieve the rank 1 level 100 raider in the Expedition league. If you have any questions about this build I will be happy to answer them!
Some things I forgot to mention: 5 link carcass jack is better than a tabula in my opinion. A +2 aoe or duration gems tabula would be very strong. % Chance to avoid ailments map mods do not affect chilled ground Cold penetration does not affect cold damage over time in any way.
