Glacial Cascade Ignite

https://pastebin.com/1w71cALh

I try to make at least one ignite build each league, and this has been one of my favourites so far. This started out based on a post about a month ago from someone trying to get the best out of replica CIP by using cold to fire conversion and I tried to do the same for ignite and glacial cascade caught my eye.

The build ended up moving away from CIP as I was able to pick up the staff in the POB for 100 chaos, and it is an amazing staff for the build. Temple cold mod, with +3 cold spells, 53% burning damage, and an empty suffix for crafted fire dot multi.

As for the rest of the build, I bought the amulet for under 50 chaos I think (already corrupted to had to buy the extra oil for the annoint) and bought the remaining bases and crafted the gear. About 3 weeks ago the ignite prolif and fire exposure bases were quite cheap 20-30 chaos, risen in price recently. I'm currently farming eater of worlds for a big fire exposure base to then add prolif onto as the gloves as the weakest, but hard part to replace with the T1 dex and spell suppression.

Playing the build is really fun. GC has a good range and with prolif you can off screen. Mana has been a constant issue but the exposure on gloves combined with mastermind of discord has helped, it means that no exposure maps are slower.

The build is nicely balanced between dps and survivability but not amazing at either. 1.8m ignite dps without convergence with 4k hp, 23k evasion and 100% spell suppress isn't going to be good enough I think for Maven and the trickier invitations (at least not with my skill level but) but I haven't had issues with the new bosses, shaper, elder conquerors and sirius.

There are still a few things to improve (gloves as mentioned earlier) and a couple of items with crafted life but overall really happy with the build. If I get time today or tomorrow i'll try and edit or comment some map / boss videos.

I'm loving the new endgame; I've fought my first maven (failed at the final memory phase) and killed my first uber elder (both earlier in the league on EA champion before I got this build to the point it at now). I've also fought more bosses and invitations than in any league previously and I'm really enjoying that, just being able practice through repeated attempts because it's easy to get the maps and fragments.

Edit: the -1% fire res in the custom modifiers is for the glove mod. As far as I can tell when you check 'is the enemy exposed to fire' it only does -10%
