[3.28] Cast on freeze with Wing of the Wyvern

Hi All,

I am a semi-casual player, i usually play low-budget build due to limited available time to play, and i like playing non-meta builds.

I would like to share the build i come up, started as a challenge from a friend to make a build using the bow "Wing of the Wyvern". The result is not a meta map blaster, but i am having a lot of fun playing it.

Here you can see a mapping showcase, T16 (8 mod if i remember correctly) with 5 cloister scarabs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMw2PBgI3G0

(First part without MTX, but then all the white really gets annoying for me).

The build relies on the "Trigger a Socketed Spell when a Hit from this Weapon Freezes a Target, with a 0.25 second Cooldown" modifier from Wing of the Wyvern, so we play sabo to double the trigger rate.

We use it to trigger Vortex of Projection, with frostbolts generated from a cast on crit setup on the body armor.

The hard part is having enough damage on the bow attack to freeze enemies.

Another issue is sustaining the mana cost of triggering 7 vortex per second, and 6.5 frostbolt per seconds. I solved this via eldritch battery, energy shield from discipline, increasing it via the belt, and finally using a watcher's eye with energy shield on hit to sustain it.

Offensively the build scales crit and crit multi, cold damage, damage when chilled and shock.

It has 5 power and 6 frenzy charges with 100% uptime thanks to the belt.

Defensively it relies primarily on chilling and freezing most of the mobs, has 100% spell suppression, 4 endurance charges always up, and blinding enemies for reduced damage taken.

Sustain is obtained via leech and life on hit.

Additionally we have some utility: blast-freeze for mass freeze and herald of ice for explosions, and two curses.

Single target damage is not great, but enough for maps.

This is the PoB of the build in the video: https://pobb.in/PnRK-B36ZMCq, the budget to build it is around 50 divines.

The build is far from being fully optimized, I am aware there are some very weak piece of equipment. I believe a mageblood setup can bring much more damage to it.

Hope you enjoy it :)
