I've been loving playing Magden over the last couple patches. I opt for the Crystallized Slab morph though for a few reasons. You still get the damage shield against projectiles but it also restores a bit of mag for each projectile, which passively reduces the cost by refunding some mag. It launches an attack back that does ice damage and stuns. It's a quadruple benefit from 1 skill. So while the Heroism is nice, there are other sources, even CP if you want to go that route, but I like having that extra damage and ranged stun when dealing with an X situation where you have snipers or MagSorcs spamming you with ranged projectiles. All that said, I run a similar setup using Trial By Fire instead of Wretched. It's a bit overkill on the resistances because I hit around 45k but it's nice having that safety net for being hit with Debuffs and staying above cap. Ice Furnace however is an OG set for Warden that you can't really go wrong with. Even light attacking people will proc it on not just them but others within range. Solid build.
That doesn't tell me enchants or traits. Armor type (Which pieces are light/medium/heavy) Skills. Which CPs are slotted. I'm hearing impaired, but I still come to TH-cam because usually people have links to a written build. Does anyone have this written down? Pretty please 🥺

i was thinking, try same build with DK, well not 100% same but basically same, i know ur ice set that does flame damage has to be different, but u know what i mean, would be interesting to see if u get as good or better char with DK, pulsar as 1skill if they get 2close + whip to maybe, i think this idea is kind of scary 😆 cause it may out do (or over do or how that say it) this ice warden, try and do video about it
Other morph of shimmer shield is better if you don’t have the dlc. It’s a stun from range. Does extra damage and it’s a 40k shield. Screw the major heroism. Imo. Plus dawn breaker and tree ult cost nothing compared to other ultimates. You don’t even need heroism. Run the other morph trust me.
It doesn't work vs melee so that is the issue. Also the 40k is per projectile so isn't really that useful basically 3 ranged hits which is skill, light attack then skill so you don't block loads.
@tynaannaschmitz3559 it is decent but you don't get the full power unless in melee range as you'd only get the buffs not debuffs to targets. Ddf also increases healing from hp and magicka, stamina so more roll dodge/mobility and magicka thus damage. Both are good options though.
if similar build DK what u recommend Cinder Storm or eruption, only defensive cp i took was the heal cp in this build from heal tree cause DK has more resistance's and i wanted master at arms and thaumaturg and fighting fines so no room for ironclad like i mentioned before, not that it much needed cause DK's passives should make the loss even, yes this warden isn't finished and i already started DK :D
On a dk look at scavaging demise. It hits very hard and is a great burst skill. You can use shattering rock to also force people to get hit by it by stunning them just before they get the proc hit
The one thing Im curious about is why Destructive Reach over Destructive Clench? I know Clench reduces damage done by the skill for using ice staff, but between having MAA and the Piercing Cold passive on Warden, the damage reduction is vastly mitigated if not fully nullified. I guess if using the stun from scribed skill it makes sense to a degree, but then you're losing out on Major Maim on targets. I'm not trying at all to say one way is better than the other, just wondering what the specific decision behind this choice was on the build.
The ice reach becomes a spamable but around 0.9x spamable damage. Therefore, the chilled damage brings it up to around 1x - 1.1x spamable damage. Ice clench is around 0.4x spamable damage and so with the chilled bonus you get around 0.5x-0.6x spamable damage. This makes it a huge DPS loss and actually makes it harder to kill. You can get around this if you use it as a buff/imoblize and use another spamable.
10:07 inner light does the same, difference is, its always on and gives u magica to, doesn't this make inner light better? does it work without mythic? i don't have any
You can do this but you need to front bar inner light which means moving a skill back bar like fetcher infection/shimmering shield. You also lose the passive healing from lotus blossom which is nice or living trellis if you use that. The max magicka also doesn't scale too well simply because our base is so low. 7% of 40k magicka is more than 7% of 20k magicka for example so it isn't really worth it tbh. Cammo hunter maybe worth it though as you get fighter's guild passives boosting our weapon/spell damage which is already high and is further boosted by betty. You also get berserk from the flank + savagery and cammo detect skill. This means you could use deceptive predator morph and get minor evasion. I'd personally suggest trying this if you wanted to drop something passive into the build and I think having the stealth reveal would be helpful too.
i am planning to use the build in a small group but i got a few questions - is ice furnace realy good ? 1000 dmg every second doesnt seem like alot compared to what other sets can offer - had the random idea of using Jerall Mountains Warchief instead of the mythic - combined with the 2 defiles in the build that would be 50% less healing for my enemys ( and playing in a group would propably fix the downside)
@Xologamer jerall applies once per cooldown not per target so in multi person fights you don't get stacks up on the primary target often enough so it isn't good. Jeralls is excellent 1v1s. Thar 1k damage is every second and aoe so hits everyone. Way of fire is around 3k typically every 2 seconds but only 1 target. As such similar damage but aoe and if you swap targets it is easier to use ice furnace. When comparing sets look at damage done ÷ cooldown so winterborn being 5k damage with a 5s cooldown for example is 1k a second thus dame as ice for an example.
@@Unified-Gaming thanks for the reply, about jerall - i did not know that and its something i ll keep in mind tho i still think it may be worth a try since i kinda believe it possible to direct the majority of the procs on the desired target with the single target dots the build offers for furnace i tried it on the pts and just quickly hit a doll and the set did 7% of my dmg - i am just (so far) not a realy big fan of proc sets since they always seem to do very little dmg when i also could just run something like pen or just go defensive
@Xologamer new sets, new skills and it has waaay more burst. I will record the video tomorrow and place in early access on TH-cam/patreon for members then release in a week approx. My monster set is kinjjalar nightmare and it has a 17k tool tip and undodgable...
@@nokmuay1970 Saw you edited the message but to it - you seemed to wonder about bloodthirsty. The general rule of thumb for pvp having tested it a lot is that bloodthristy is more damage below 67% hp but the issue is that when you 'need' the extra hit they are often low enough anyway to kill without the boost - more so if an execute. The time to consider bloodthirsty is if you lack an execute like magden does or magcro or if you want to make an execute build like templar with beam spam. For this build, bloodthirsty is a good option but I chose infused simply because people have that trait usually and can repurpose the set on other characters if the wish with it being infused. Also blood thirsty works a little odd with dots and procs sometimes i.e. doesnt scale exisiting dot damage and we have a lot of that.
@@Unified-Gaming cool. wasnt sure, so thought Id ask. What were your thoughts on Defensive stance or flare for the damage reduction, or the inner light for sav and proph?
@skyrimleagond590 masters ice staff is 600. With perfected that is another 102 and with damage buffs that staff equates for over 1k spell damage. If you lack that, that is why. The other stats are with all class buffs/sets on only so you're likely missing something.
Can this work wothout the masters ice staff and adding aomster set instead but keep the rest the same? If not what do you think about hrothgar's chill?
@JoshuaTremblay-ou7vm this is the best setup. Hrothdar chill isn't much damage. Wintebrorn works. Masters ice is a huge damage boost and kinda needed tbh
@@Unified-Gaming I play a one bar with way of fire and winterborn, both can be proc by front reach, with the birds for 400 wd, not meta but it works well in BGs
@AllThingsFascinate your burst is about timing the 2nd hit with deep fissure, dawnbreaker then your spamable. This is essentially around 40k--45k tool tip burst. That would hit around 18k in pvp reliably. What you may notice more is the lack of an execute and unfortunately this is a magden issue so you need to focus on landing burst around 60% of the targets hp or overwhelming them with northern storm. Also note good players will never die 1v1 regardless of build simply because healing is so strong vs damage.
@@Unified-Gaming 40k tool tip is 20k pvp, so you'd need crazy high pen to actually hit 18k. But yes, having no execute, having to wait for 9 (!) seconds to time a burst, and not having an on-demand stun really makes warden hard to play in pvp. Do you think Ice Furnace is actually doing much for us? I enjoy the set, but often wonder if a bunch of spell damage or a crit set would add more damage overall.
@AllThingsFascinate use dazing soul. That is the on demand stun. Ice furnace procs every second so is one of the highest dps sets. We also have a lot of pen - 9k from debuffs plus sharpened, lover etc. So around 15-18k. Shattered fate is a good set to look at but again you can't only front bar it due to masters ice staff which is 100% worth it.

Yes - I've done solo dungeons normal and vet with this. DLC ones more normal tbh. You need to use dps skills though and just copy a dps skill loadout and use armory station to switch. Maelstorm and infinite also work okay - not amazing but you have enough dps to get through vet on these too.

i don't have scribing, what is alt stun if i want better heal and go for the better heal morph with polar wind?
also tried dawn barker on 1char, not impressed at all, good for trash moobs though, ice comet would do better damage
arctic blast is other stun
1 light set on a magbuild?
@guybeahmiv932 yup. They changed passives so medium buffs spell damage now and is more useful for magden
Does it solo pve good?
@@c_m_b_3110 it'd do overland and dungeon content fine 🙂
gameplay? I'd like to see it in practice rather than theory.
