Updated 3.19 Levelling Guide for Cold DOT Occutist - https://youtu.be/NnTe07AZ1S8
A few viewers asked how to level a Cold DOT Occultist and commented it must be a pain to do it but the fact is, it's not! In fact, it's a breeze clearing A1-10 and I think it's one of the easiest build to level in Path of Exile, especially in 3.16 with the buff in Determination, Cold DOT gems like Vortex, Cold Snap and Creeping Frost. In this video you will find snippet of gameplay from A1 all the way to finishing of A10, contains all boss fights, showcase of gear, gem links and tree progression at almost every act. I hope it will provide a clear idea of how this build can be levelled and make your levelling process a little better. The POB has 4 different trees which will help show you what your tree show look like depending on your progress.
This is done in SSF with 0 gear at the start so it's definitely suitable for leaguestart and the tree and gear after Kitava is good enough to jump straight into maps and progress into whatever end gamebuild you like. As my end game goal is always low-life Cold DOT, this build is designed towards it and will require very little passive tree refund. I could also easily grab Zealot's Oath and Pain Attunement as well as some jewel sockets when I need them.
I hope you enjoy this video, leave a comment if you have question. Don't forget to like and subscribe!
[POE 3.17 post-patchnote update] - this build is buffed with higher hit damage for all 3 spells used and no nerf to support gems or defences. The buff is not much (since we rely mostly on DOT dmg) but it’ll be noticeable in levelling.
