PoE builds similar to 3.18 Path of Exile - Freezing Pulse / Ice Spear Inquisitor - T16

Since GGG was supposed to buff self-casting i decided to give ice-spear a try this league. I quite like the balance between offence and defense inquisitor gives. In the end I think I managed to create a quite well rounded character with decent clear, good survivability and quite good DPS(doing about 15m dps on a somewhat not to bad budget without any flask). Think i have spent about 20-25 ex on the character. Where as a good 80 percent of that was on belt and chest. Any good ideas on areas i can improve on my build?

A few notes: If you don't like Eye of Winter you can use Freezing Pulse instead. I just like what Eye of Winter feels like. No jewel sockets because SSF. Tree can be tweaked a bit to grab some sockets if you happen to find any jewels worth running. Like I mentioned, there's no required gear. I don't have any gear in the POB besides flasks and a shield. The only two things that are arguably "required" are a pair of rare gloves with the Eater of Worlds implicit "apply cold exposure on hit" (very easy to roll), and a Shaper shield

// // Forum guide contains Low (<5ex), Medium (5-15ex), High (<40ex) and Chad (>40ex) budget tiers with gear recommendations and thoughts on anoints, pantheon, bandits, etc. It's been a neat little experiment and at close to 30M (ideal) DPS now, I can ignore bosses like PoE of old. Just wanted to share my Scourge experience so far!

Hey, so this came to be very spontaneously, I just tinkered with this build for most of the league getting every little info about what other people were doing with it as there are no updated guides on this. Then I finished my crucible shield tree and was proud enough to post it on the main sub and quite some people were really interested in this build. So thanks to those people as well as to builds of the good ol' times I crafted this forum post for the past couple hours. Feel free to check it out: [
