Weapons

The build uses a Spear to use the Glacial Lance skill. You'll have to stack Physical and Cold Damage for the offensive modifiers, as those are the modifiers that Glacial Lance will pull damage from. You'll also want attack speed for faster clears and Critical Strike Chance to reach about 70% to 100% Critical Strike Chance.

List of Weapons

Armor

Thrillsteel Helmet and Nightscale Gloves

You'll want Thrillsteel for the effects of Onslaught that grant Skill speed and Movement speed, as this makes you cast spears faster and gives a general movement speed bonus. The Nightscale gloves go hand in hand with the Critical Hit chance of the build, allowing you to recover insane amounts of Mana.

General Equipment

For the rest of your armor, you'll want to cap out your elemental resistances and stack on Evasion Rating to reach the 80% cap. You'll also want Maximum Life for more survivability, as well as stat-stacking Intelligence and Dexterity to be able to use various support gems.

Lastly, you'll want to load up on Spirit as much as possible to use Cast on Critical and Frost Bomb along with other persistent skills.

List of Armors

Accessories

Elemental Resistance Rings

Use Rings that grant Elemental Resistance Modifiers like Ruby, Topaz, or Sapphire Rings, but it's best to obtain these rings with Increased Elemental or Lightning Damage modifiers.

List of Rings

Amber Amulet

We suggest using the Amber Amulet as its implicit modifier grants strength, allowing you to meet the requirements for Herald of Ash.

List of Amulets

Runes and Soul Cores

Equipment Sockets
Weapon
Armor

You'll want Iron and Glacial Runes in your weapon to increase Physical and Cold Damage for Glacial Lance. For your Armor, you'll have to adjust it depending on your lowest elemental resistance.

Ideally, you should have most elemental resistances covered by your armor modifiers so you can stack on Iron Runes to increase Evasion Rating.

Charms

・Increased Duration
・Increased Flask Charges Gained

Thawing Charms is the best charm to use for the build as it allows you to become immune to Freeze. This makes the gameplay much easier as Freeze is one of the dangerous ailments in the game, snaring you in place and making you open for attacks.

The passive tree priority is to take nodes that grant increased Skill Speed and Damage nodes. Nodes of the highest priority are Critical Strike Chance nodes, as the build revolves around crits. For your first Ascendancy point, Avidity is a must as it can help you sustain frenzy charges even in the early game.
