 Attention! |
This build was last updated for patch 0.1.1g. We're rushing to update the build to the newest 0.2.0 patch. Please check back later on! |
|---|
This endgame build is crafted by SiahZ. Check out all of their detailed guides on Path of Exile 2 and a variety of games over at SiahZ (Youtube)!
The video breaks down the build step-by-step, covering everything from skills, gear, and passives to use Shattering Concoction fully!
| Build Setup | |
|---|---|
 Shattering Concoction Pathfinder |
 Shattering Concoction X Added Cold Damage;+7% to Critical Hit Chance;Consumes 5 Charges from your Mana Flask;Inflicts Cold Exposure on Hit;Explosion radius is 1.5 metres
 Hypothermia Curses all targets in an area after a short delay, lowering their Cold Resistance.
 Lightning Warp Teleports you inside the target's body, causing it to violently explode. Highlights enemies that can be culled, and can only be used on these enemies or Ball Lightning projectiles. The target is destroyed, and the explosion deals Lightning Damage to surrounding enemies and creates Shocked Ground.
 Ball Lightning Fires a slow-moving projectile that repeatedly shoots bolts of lightning at nearby enemies.
 Eye of Winter Fires a single Eye Projectile which does not hit enemies. The Eye constantly releases damaging shard Projectiles in a spiral as it flies, plus an extra burst of Shards at the end of its flight. If the Eye passes over an Elemental ground surface, it will take on that surface effect, applying it to nearby enemies and causing shards to deal more damage of the corresponding type.
 Ghost Dance Periodically Gain Ghost Shrouds. If you are Hit while you have a Ghost Shroud, it is immediately consumed to recover Energy Shield based on your Evasion.
 Grim Feast Feeds on corpses to bolster your Energy Shield. While active, enemies and Reviving Minions that die in your Presence have a chance to drop Grim Remnants. Picking up a Grim Remnant grants you Energy Shield which can Overflow maximum Energy Shield.
 Herald of Ice While active, Shattering an enemy with an Attack Hit will cause an icy explosion that deals Attack damage to surrounding enemies.
 Herald of Thunder While active, killing Shocked enemies with Attack damage, will cause subsequent Attack hits to release lightning bolts which deals Attack damage to all surrounding enemies.
 Wind Dancer Grants a buff that gives you more Evasion per stage. Being Hit by a Melee Attack while you have this buff consumes all stages to damage and Knock Back enemies around you.
 Cast on Freeze While active, gains Energy when you Freeze enemies and triggers socketed spells on reaching maximum Energy.
 Blink Replaces your dodge roll with a short-cooldown Spell that allows you to tunnel through space, instantly reappearing a medium distance away.
 Alchemist's Boon While active, grants you Flask Charges passively and causes Life and Mana recovery from your Flasks to also apply to Allies in your presence.

 High Burst Damage Safety with Freeze CC Requires Proper Setup Requires Uniques |
|
This is a Cold Ranger endgame build designed around utilizing the Shattering Concoction by boosting it with Shock and Critical Hit properties to reach 10,000,000 damage! Since freezing enemies is easy with this build, it also has solid survivability with its CC potential.

The Widowhail Crudebow is the main weapon of this build since it defines Shattering Concoction's damage potential by massively boosting the Quiver's level and critical modifiers. As for the second weapon set, remember to link both Lightning Warp and Ball Lightning so it automatically swaps when setting up the Shocked Ground!
The Visceral Quiver's base effect gives the build a flat percentage increase to Critical Hit Chance, ultimately increasing this build's damage output. This build will also focus on min-maxing the Quiver as its source of scaling level and damage, given that Widowhail boosts all of its modifiers by a significant amount!
The Atziri's Disdain Gold Circlet further amps this build's defenses by converting your Maximum Life to additional Energy Shields. The massive boost in Energy Shield allows Grim Feast to have a higher cap than it initially has.
The Hand of Wisdom and Action Furtive Wraps turn the build's high innate attributes into a massive DPS boost by relatively increasing Attack Speed and Lightning Damage the higher your Dexterity and Intelligence are!
Since the build utilizes Energy Shield as an additional means of survivability, the Lunar Amulet's increased maximum Energy Shield is a substantial boost. If a Lunar Amulet is not available, find an amulet with additional levels to all projectile skills and spirit!
The Unset Rings allows for the build to slot in another Skill Gem, for which Blink and Ghost Dance is included to improve the build's overall comfort and survivability.
Apart from the specific equipment listed, stack as many Energy Shield, Evasion, and Elemental Resistances modifiers as possible to help survive in the higher Atlas tiers.
Additionally, get at least as much Spirit on your armor and amulet since this build utilizes multiple Spirit Skills!
| All Armors and Accessories | |
|---|---|
| List of Armors | List of Accessories |
Note: The modifiers listed are arranged according to priority.
 Against the Darkness Time-Lost Diamond |
・Notable passive skills in radius also grant gain 4% of damage as extra lightning damage
Optional: ・Notable passive skills in radius also grants +1% to maximum elemental resistance |
|---|---|
 Time-Lost Emerald |

Optional: ・Notable passive skills in radius also grant Increased Attack Speed ・Notable passive skills in radius also grant Increased bonuses from equipped Quiver Effects |
 Emerald |
・Increased Effects from Quivers
・Increased Critical Damage Bonus ・Increased Projectile Damage ・Increased Attack Speed ・Increased Attack Damage |
The build utilizes Against the Darkness Time-Lost Diamond and a Time-Lost Emerald. With each Notable Passive inside their radius, these jewels should provide Lightning and Critical Hit Damage bonuses indicated in their modifiers.
Most of the jewels you slot in will be Emeralds that provide you with attack damage and critical hit modifiers for maximized damage.
Note: The modifiers listed are arranged according to priority.
 Thawing Charm |
・Increased Duration
・Increased Charges ・Recover Life when Used |
|---|
The best charm to slot in would be the Thawing Charm since it prevents you from being frozen, which is essentially a death sentence on higher tiers. If you have an extra charm slot, you can use the Stone Charm to negate stun effects.
| Equipment | Sockets |
|---|---|
| Weapon | |
| Armor |
The best slot-in for your weapon here is the Soul Core of Azcapa since this build is highly reliant on high Spirit. If you can equip the Persistent Skills even without the additional Spirit, opt to use Soul Core of Ticaba to increase your Critical Damage!
The best Runes to slot in for the Waxed Jacket should be Iron Runes to further increase its Evasion and Energy Shield. Slot in extra Soul Cores of Tacati to cap out on Chaos Resistance.

Shattering Concoction is the skill that this build revolves around, as it can dole out massive amounts of Cold damage when specced into correctly. When using the necessary critical and damage-enhancing support gems on Shattering Concoction, you will be dealing up to 3,000,000 damage to bosses with this combo when set up with Hypothermia and Voltaic Mark.
Lightning Warp and Ball Lightning allow the build to have an additional means of setting up this build's damage by setting up Shocked Ground to debuff enemies quickly. Eye of Winter hones in on this build's emphasis on criticals by applying Critical Weakness to enemies.
Blink is included to increase the build's mobility while adding an auxiliary panic button when cornered. The build will also utilize six Persistent Skills, those being ① Cast on Freeze, ② Herald of Thunder, ③ Herald of Ice, ④ Grim Feast, ⑤ Wind Dancer, and ⑥ Alchemist's Boon.

The passive tree priority for overall DPS is to take nodes that grant Projectile Damage, increased Quiver Effects, Attack Damage, Elemental Damage, Cold Damage, Critical Hit Rate/Damage, and Attack Speed.
For the defenses, take nodes that grant bonuses to both Energy Shield and Evasion Rating as this build will rely on a healthy mix between the two for its survivability. Given that this build has a high Energy Shield and has access to Enduring Elixirs, Eternal Youth keeps your Energy Shield tapped out at all times.
The ascendancy group nodes for the Pathfinder Ascendancy, Brew Concoction, and Enduring Elixirs are priority inclusions. Brew Concoction allows the build to access the Shattering Concoction skill. Enduring Elixirs allows our Energy Shield to be tapped out since the effects of the Life Potion will always be active!
When progressing through the attribute highways, invest in Intelligence since the equipment you need to equip will require high amounts to be fitted while also scaling Energy Shields. Make sure to dedicate some points on Strength and Dexterity to equip the necessary support gems!

Thank you for using SiahZ's build and our guide for your build! - First, it allows the build to apply the weapon set passives that strengthen the Shocked status. Secondly, it allows the build avoid manually swapping weapons. The secondary bow does not need to be an Expert Dualstring Bow; it is okay to use a random one. - Since Concoction skills cannot be linked to weapon sets, work around this by linking Eye of Winter to your first weapon set as it is used before Shattering Concoction.

Ok I understand. So the objective it's to find a nice "bow/quiver" who synergize well with Lightning Warp and Ball Lightning. I hope they will fix the weapon assignment for concoction. I see a lot of posts where people complain about it. Like a spell (doesn't require a specific weapon), the concoction should be assignable to a weapon set. Thank you very much for your answer PS: I see the build has been updated, nice!!! I think there is a mistake with the support gem on Herald of Ice
