POE1 3.26 Ice Nova Occultist Budget Showcase

Budget PoB (This is what I used when recording this showcase): https://pobb.in/DJmvMBN6c2qh Current PoB (wasn't used in this video): https://pobb.in/ovw_1m7yLVpR

My regex when rolling t17 and t16.5 maps. Feel free to edit and make it your own: "!hey|fe a|f el|ced e|o al|gen|r li|efe|pet|ss are|wb" "y: (m|r)"

Budget items: Watcher's eye with zealotry linger and zealotry damage: 1 div Passable cluster jewel: 50c medium clusters: 40c random resist/attribute/crit multi/cast speed jewels: 150c timeless jewel: 100c Amulet: 20c anoint: 95c helm: 100c gloves: 10c boots: 1 div belt: 10c shield: 10c Ring: 100c ish. Doesn't need the strength since my gloves have enough, but it's what I had other ring: 1c 6 link sacred chainmail: 2 div (I spent about 3 div crafting mine) flasks: 100c wand: 120c (cheaper if you bless it yourself) Runegraft of the fortress: 20c 20/20 vaal ice nova of frostbolts: 1 div

total: 12-18 div

Upgrades from here: bottled faith: 4 div Awakened inc aoe support: 5 div BIS cluster jewel: 10-12 div if you buy one. Can craft for cheaper, but it's a pain. Actual curse on hit ring. 4 div ish. better gloves: 4-8 div Better crit multi jewels: 4 div power charge helm: 9 div better chest: 15-30 div if you don't craft yourself

Expensive upgrades: +1 power charge ring and kalandra's touch: 100-120 div Focused amulet with +2 all skills and +2 cold, with either minimum frenzy charges or crit multi: 150-200 div

Note: if you don't have a triple watcher's eye like mine, you'll want to take the crit master and armour mastery for reduced critical damage taken

It's up to you on whether you want to use profane bloom or Vile Bastion. Once my clear with ice nova is good enough, i usually spec into vile bastion, but I wanted to keep profane bloom here for the showcase so that new people to the build can experience how awesome profane bloom is. If you find yourself getting sick of stuns or dying frequently, try out vile bastion instead.

The 3 passive cluster jewel i'm using is just a random one I found that had decent passives on it. You don't need one exactly like this, and there are many better ones out there. See my current PoB for the one you'll want eventually.

I didn't use my 2nd curse at all in the showcase. It would have made the boss fight much faster.
