PoE builds similar to POE 3.25 Wintertide Brand Day 3 & 4

I'm tired of waiting for others to come up with reasonable builds for this skill I love, so I decided to give it a shot myself. I wanted to emphasize slowing enemies as much as I can and the duration of brands. Any discussion on what can be improved on this build is appreciated. Features: Fast clear and death explosions Freedom of mobility for playing brands Cursed and chilled enemies deal 45% less damage with hits (enfeeble & ascendancy) Squishy, but relatively safe from melee, as no melee enemy should be able to touch

=This is a Level 98 Tree, if you do not have this many skill points consider the below: -Drop Lethe Shade, this is mainly for endgame bosses that cover the area with degen pools -Drop the extra node in the Sovereignty Wheel -Drop Glacial Cage/Season of Ice Wheel =Do Not activate the Trickster Ascendency Swift Killer until you have a chest that generates Frenzy Charges. For leveling and league start, pick up One Step Ahead until you transition =Do Not constantly cast Wintertide Brand in a fight. You have to wait until they reach max stages and expire to do the most damage. Get used to how

I've been trying to narrow down my league starter for Heist the past couple of days. Somewhere along the line, I decided I want to do a cold DoT Occultist, more specifically a Wintertide Brand Occultist (SC-trade). I have a few reasons (that may or may not be valid, politely let me know). Full reasoning summaries below, but TLDR: I think cold DoT Occultists will survive nerfing and might even be buffed by new Hexes. Wintertide brand also feels safe from nerfing, is non-meta, and there is always Vortex to fall back on. I may or may not be able to take advantage of new Hexes more easily. Al
