Hey there quick question. I have been following your leveling guide and just started the harder difficulty. The page you posted about the build seems a bit incomplete about how to proceed around that point. I'm at lvl 48 and got by with a combination of Icestrike, Tempest Bell, Herald of Ice and the occasional Frostbomb here and there as well as Hand of Chayula as a primer and a little bit of Wave of frost. I guess what I'm asking is what to do next to step up my game and what we are going for in the end since this build seems to be evolving. Any advice would be much appreciated!
for the bell I've been doing 40% aoe and the other which is 50% aoe but increases cooldown time +6 seconds.... it is mean, did a few adaptations to your build just to try new things but you are awesome man. subbed.
By the way i took a node that alowes me to ignore elemental res if enemy is frozen. So I'm not taking Hypothermia. I used Chayulas hand with Enfeeble and haven't gotten mark. Also i'm not Invoker so playing around with Acolite. While not as strong Flames do help with attrition.
Is there a reason that you aren't taking Falcon Technique? 1% attk speed for every 15 dex feels really nice and makes ice strike feel more like flicker strike
Use both tier 1 skills: frozen cascade (the ranged ice spell) and ice locus (for when you get jumped) then add the bell for bossing (cast ice locus then break it with the bell) u will also have access to frost bomb for freeze deepen
What’s the best way to get resist cap? That’s the problem I’m not understanding. I’m new to this and can do decent damage but resistances are trash now on my monk
Hi Don, really loving the build, been a ton of fun, even after the nerfs. I've been wondering if Dynamism (40% more damage if you've triggered a skill recently) isn't worth it over some other stuff, since you can basically permanently have that up with how little energy Eye of Winter needs. Keep it up with the good video!
Hey don! Just really curious because i cant seem to grasp where your getting your energy shields - i did check out your written guide and im still a bit slumped 😢i apologize if this is a silly question but i just dont seem to get where its comin from Response would be greatly appreciated!
Just wanted to thank you for the build videos man. I've been using your guidance since starting the game and have been having an absolute BLAST. I'm halfway thru CRUEL campaign and just keep getting stronger. 👍
I'd drop Wave for Charged Staff. For me personally it feels much better in terms of mob clearing speed and safety, since the projectiles can freeze. I used to use Wave with 2x area and freeze buildup gems as a 'oh sht' button while still had shty gear
@@Katzenhirn it uses power charges and a way that people are using to get power charges is as spirit gem skill called Combat frenzy and a passive in the skill tree called Resonance it builds up charges when you freeze electrocute or stun enemies so free unlimited charges
Hello, and thank you for this amazing build you created for us, and also for being so responsive to class modifications! However, would it be possible to provide the equipment to use? I'm a bit lost on what gear to focus on.
i dont understand how your ice strike is at 31 dps and mine is at 9k when the passive tree is almost the same and our staffs are basically the same with mine being a little better due to getting a third rune slot with corruption. can you show all your gear in another video?
You should focus less on spells and more on charged staff and power charges. It looks cooler and makes your dps go through the roof. I'm only in act 3 cruel and tooltip dps is 25k with ice strike and charged strike.
@ just make respect cheaper and they can nerf all they want. How does it make sense to brick a character only to make them reroll because they don't have the gold to respec?
@nathankrassow3007 I don't think it is that serious. The game is supposed to be challenging. If it was too easy, then it kills the replayability. What did you spec into that you feel that you need to spec out of anyways?
what do you mean whenever they are gonna fix ascendency stuff? i have 4 asccendencies on my monk. also this is really scuffed version you have here ngl
Hey Don! can you plz link your Loot Filter file plz ? thx in advance.

Thank you. Im playing Frost monk and your ideas do help alot.

You're an absolute legend, thank you for all your work!

Thoughts on weapon sets swaping tallents and skills can be set to specific weapon set?
Since you can easily nullify frost res in the passive tree what would you recommend for curses or palm skill in general?
Which normal mode draught do you recommend for a melee focused monk like this?
it's in the written guide but I like the stun one
@@DonTheCrown sorry I must've missed it in the written guide. Thanks for responding and for the video.

how do you get thru Act 1? Was it with Tempest Bell + Ice Strike combo?

God why dont spirit gems drop for me. I havent had one drop forever and its preventing me from getting my elemental buff.

does charged staff help with icy strike damage or barely noticeable?

The Es vor Evasion skillpoint.
how Overabundance works with Bell ?

It also gives you more attack speed and it's a clear difference but it doesn't say that tho lol
@@Sauceyourgranny hmm, interesting
Where would you get the energy for charged staff?

@ thank you ☺️
Big question: if I’m lacking on Spirit and haven’t done the 3rd trial, can I exchange Unbound Avatar for Lead Me Through Grace?
Sure, you lose some damage potential but spirit is nice
I was so excited to get to the point where comets fell from the sky, it was so visually awesome… I am sad I can’t play that build after the patch :(
Same here 😢
I really love comets i always go sorc or witch in games just for comets 😂
Imo deleting bosses with eye of winter is much better.
Hello, and thank you for this amazing build you created for us, and also for being so responsive to class modifications! However, would it be possible to provide the equipment to use? I'm a bit lost on what gear to focus on.
check the written guide
Just got to maps rubbing your build smoothly
What Ascendancy node first please? thanks
The 4 in ice and get a chest with spirit. Thats what i did until i got my 5 and 6 points
any got spirit bug after the patch? mine can't go pass 83 so I'm basically restricted to just Herald of Ice
did you take the ascendancy node that gives you spirit based on your chest armor but prevents getting spirit from other sources of gear
is there a way we can still use comet?
i dont understand how your ice strike is at 31 dps and mine is at 9k when the passive tree is almost the same and our staffs are basically the same with mine being a little better due to getting a third rune slot with corruption. can you show all your gear in another video?
Bro is gonna get us nerfed again
and i thought my 1k evasion body armor was nuts
should see my new 1k eva hat
You could probably try supercritical as well along with the tempest bell. I heard it instantly deletes rares
Sounds good
Supercritical+leverage i think? Insane crit and insane bonus crit damage
Playing a similar build, but witch blood mage. The extra crit damage is nasty…
sir thats the impact damage which is when it drops, you not showing the shockwave tab
I still dont get how you get over 200 spirit from the ascendancy node. 1700 evasion rating on body armour should only get you over 100 spirits right?
You don’t get the spirit from equipment, just the magic stats on it.
He literally said he only got like 120 spirit from the body armor, aka the ascendancy node. The rest is the quest rewards?
120 from body and 100 from quests
You should focus less on spells and more on charged staff and power charges. It looks cooler and makes your dps go through the roof. I'm only in act 3 cruel and tooltip dps is 25k with ice strike and charged strike.
yeah I dropped charged staff, i dont think its that great
How can I have such a high spirit like you?
I've worn a lot of gear with added evasion, but it doesn't work.
带领我通过恩典......
is it normal i dont have the Eye of winter in rune ? where i finding it ?
active skills, look at all gems in the bottom right
man im playing as acolyte.. i cannot do any of these
Bell is OP af.
How can u have so many buffs with only 30 spirit?
i have 216 spirit
nice build, only 56 buttons to press xD
welcome to poe2!
Id like to make this build but every time I get to the level you made the build at , you put out an updated better build. Slow down!
Hopefully this isn't the late game to be looking forward too. That playstyle is so boring
If this build gets nerfed after I busted my ass to respec yesterday I'll probably put this game down for a while.
It’s not over powered you’re fine
Bro, it is a beta..
Imagine praying things don't get changed in Early Access. Maybe you should put the game down now, before your feelings get hurt.
@ just make respect cheaper and they can nerf all they want. How does it make sense to brick a character only to make them reroll because they don't have the gold to respec?

also this is really scuffed version you have here ngl
Ha what a title. Give it a patch if you really think that
Hi nice videos and build. Would be much better if You show all support gems. Most time You show only skill and maybe 1 support gem
that's why the written guide exists it handles most of that
You're basically asking them to nerf it again because of this title 🫤
