@David Powell Is there anything I can do with 50c once I'm leveled to soften the blow? I have some other currency too that might add to my chaos... I'm not too crazy about throwing mines around... Would you recommend the EC/I Trickster he has, or maybe the toxic rain trickster Esoro did?
Thanks so much, mate! Diablo exile here. Was about to give up on this game entirely, couldn't find myself in all the information out there. Finally a build that took me through the entire game without dying and taught me a thing or two on the way. So much more fun to learn the game when not constantly fighting for survival and losing each time!
I decided on this build mostly because you've laid everything out so nicely for us rookies! The path of building has everything you need in one place, I love it! Can't wait for more of your builds :)
Holy shit dude, your PoB files are great and I love the notes and detail you put into them. Makes it a lot easier for someone just getting started. Thank you so much!
Best Content creator for POE Bigducks is bloody brilliant :) He explains it in a way were newer and veterans players can relate and understand. Amazing content keep it up mate. Really appreciate all your hard work !!!!
DUDE this vid was fantastic. this is the best starting build video format i have ever seen. would love to see more builds explained as clear as this one.
Trying the character out in the last days of harvest. I’m basically a beginner at the game with only a season or 2 playing and I’m loving how much fun this character is. Thanks for the awesome videos.
If you want that build at league start (first 3 days): Snakepit - 60-40с, wand with only Trigger socketed spell - 30-40c, Tabula - 20-22c. Cinderswallow Urn - 100с, Dying Sun - 150c+
Harvest was my first time playing seen your build for creeping frost and have not looked back this build wrecks maps can't wait to try the updated one thx brother
Nice to see this build update, I tried it in Harvest following the first video you made of it, will start as well with it this week (HC SSF), thanks for the update!! :))
What's your take on this build with the current elementalist changes? Skitterbots are out for elementalist, thankfully. Shaper of Winter, Bastion of Elements and... then what? The golem nodes just for the handy utility of 3 or 4 golems w/ the new respawn mechanic? Use frostbite for damage or temp chains to slow bosses even more (if only a little)?
Hi thanks mate, was considering Trickster for the absurd survivability (15 k Energy Shield in some instances), however your dps plus enough layers of defence won me over. Continue the great work, cheers mate.
Are you looking to update this for Ritual? I used it for my Mayhem run at the end of Heist and enjoyed it. Would love to see if there are any changes you are gonna make.
A friend turned me onto this vid. I hadn't played PoE since 2017, but your vid made me try the build and it works really well! Am playing it on a L65 witch and I came upon a Tabula Rasa which I've no idea what to do with. Can you show us the other gems you use in your build? Like what are the red ones in your shield?
since cold snap provides u with frenzy charges no need to use frenzy BUT u can use power siphon instead for power charges for the spellslinger version :-)
Planned to start ED + C with a friend who is going TR Trix, but thought the chaos dot overlap might make for some fights on gear - this seems like a great alternative. Gonna do a practice run before committing, but it looks great. Look forward to more of your content.
This build has been great. Just like he said, good learning build for new players. With the dirt I picked up off the ground and a 3 link wand, I actually didn't die until act 6 while learning all the act boss mechanics.
League started with this. Just got into T16 maps. Been a lot of fun, amazing clear, good survivability with all the chilling and freezing. Thanks a lot! Now started to notice that boss dps is indeed the con of this build. Will now be working towards EQ with Storm brand on trigger wand to see if it helps enough with bosses, otherwise might create a boss killer alt.
BIG DUCK...im a newbie to this poe thing...but last night i tried "GMP" and "Greater Volley Support" together with creeping frost...and i started to melt thru packs and bosses...by the way thank you for the tutoz...
Thanks for this. So you are using Righteous Fire and Flame Dash to trigger Elemental Equilibrium? I never understood how one would ensure they get the proper result and not the opposite by accidentally having the cold reach the target first... so much shlt going on...
Just finished the acts, done uber lab at level 68, this build is pretty fun ! beware in the POB, the jewels are not so budget friendly ^^. oh and with a shitty wand, i'm already at 500k dot dps at level 72. one shot most mobs. definetly will be my league starter for Heist, and will transition to CI.
this build is great! I'm doing this in endlessdelve and reached level 40+ in a matter of few hours, without really thinking about my gear. I'm wearing a shitty armour and still using the white socketed weapons. :)
Can you update your code in pastebin or path of building. I get an error importing. Error is unknown passive tree version. My PoB is up to date with 1.4.170 at the time of this post.
@@Fergulix yesterday when I checked this link the correct version wasn't available. But after 2 hours or so I checked again and was able to download it. Thanks man
I dunno if i played the same way, but i played it on ssf hc harvest creeping frost with occultist with some twists(switched even to es only) and its a damn solid build if you are not about to get big boss killspeed. Depending on Bosses, it lacks a bit on damage output, but its a rock solid way to play the game without high investment. I will play it on heist as my starter again, since i dont see any big nerfs coming.
You do mine, detonate, dash clicking fast. Normally you use it with second wind for more stacks and less cooldown, so you go larger distances from using both
The pastebin link is broken when you try to import it into Path of Building. I am taking the link from the pastebin site and did not just copy it from youtube. To clarify it errors out saying you are using an incorrect passive when you try to import it.
Awesome build. One question tho, a couple of ascendancy points feel a bit... err... wasted. Would creeping frost work on another ascendancy? like Trickster? (A lot of dmg over time on ascendancy nodes)
the alternate quality creeping frosts look really good. I'm liking #2, which do you like Big Ducks? Creeping Frost Default 10% increased Area of Effect Alternate Quality 1 20% increased Skill Effect Duration Alternate Quality 2 Fires an additional Projectile Alternate Quality 3 Chilling Area has 40% increased Movement Speed
im struggling with the defenses a bit with this build. just seem to get shotgun down by things pretty quick. most likely just gear etc, but in t8-10 maps lvl 87 with 3,262/2,720 hp/es respectfully. 70/72 block currently and no es gain on block yet. running flesh and stone jade and quartz flask for most amount of avoidance i can get my hands on. where am i missing stuff. possibly the jewels for the chill effect? i don't seem to chill things too crazily so they still get to me pretty hard. thinking of changing some things around to fit in MoM. maybe go LL to get malevolence on hp, and use clarity/discipline with MoM and a bit of mana investment.
Hey Ducks, quick question? I am looking for a good Witch build and I am loving this video. I found another Creeping Frost build at PO Vault by Clydeheart and I noticed the tree went off the Energy Shield path instead of the the Spell Damage path yours took, so I'm assuming this is going to be way more DPS and fun to play. Just wanted your quick thoughts before I start attributing points.. Thanks in advanced.
Thanks for the guide, will level it a bit before heist league to have a better understanding of it when the league starts, sounds pretty nice though. :D
I'm currently doing a test run (approaching A6 atm), and i have to say leveling is a breeze. Its fast, easy to play, safe and the damage is there. a1 with freeze pulse is a tad uncomfy on the mana, but otherwise it rocks, and once you got clarity and creeping frost you are flying. I honestly think racers are sleeping on this, its absolutely fantastic. If you really want more ST (you don't need it for lvling at all imho) you can just lvl a vortex in your offhand and swap that in. Can 110% recommend Creeping Frost so far. PS: the POB notes are greatly appreciated. Thx a lot.
I've followed this build in POB with random yellows and the needed helm and others and I hardly reach over 800k dot dps.. I could get your flasks but I am no where near your current items selection damage over 1mil. I cant do T15-16 alone at all.
WOW, those notes! Never would have thought to look without you mentioning and you dedicated a good build guide. Thank you for all that work. Will be much better then the failed league start (apparently even streamers did this at the start of the league)
Can anyone help me understand why the snakepit ring is so good? I just equipped it, if i cast creeping frost only sometimes she will cast it twice, but I have to stay still, and it doesn't happen reliably. What is the difference between self casting it twice in succesion when I want to unless I need to shoot and move? When it actually forks does the creeping frost ground damage stack, while normally it does not? Confused newb :D
Dude I just got this build to maps in Harvest with shit and it's amazing. I died once to Brine King (he was at 1%). Thanks for the build! Just wanted to give my thumbs up.
I'm sure your busy actually doing the content but the community fork of path of building failed to load right a few days ago and couldn't be repaired. It wouldn't allow me to include "creeping frost" as a skill. I don't know why my installation of the community fork or your paste-bin failed to recognize the skill. The non-fork variant is "valid" but when I go to load it it fails to load. I'm far enough along I think I can muddle through on my own with the help of this video. But for the brief period that it did work I remember reading through the notes and finding them both helpful and clearly something you've worked hard to keep up to date. Ergo I thought you might appreciate the heads up. Although I expect to be an outlier in this regard.
I am completely new to the game (leveled 50 levels just before heist dropped) and i have a hard time with the skill and support gems. Can you add a leveling cathegory in the notes on pob or something like that?

Just a suggestion to take Profane Bloom instead of Withering Presence. +60 Chaos res is nice, but you might want corpse explosion for clearing and, more importantly, to get rid of corpses, which is a pretty nice defence layer, too. I really like your content and I can see that you put a lot of effort into your guides and builds (more than other, bigger streamers). :) But I have another suggestion: Please consider using fewer superlatives/ajectives like "insane" etc. The clear on this build is just not "insane". It's good, yes, but other builds do better on the same budget. Or when you say there are no issues with Mino for example and two seconds later you get nearly one/two shot, that just makes me feel like you want to advertise the build a little too much. Like I said, I really like your content, but I don't think you need to "oversell" your builds to make people see that they are good. :)
yeah i go with profane bloom as well, but thats also because it was so damn easy to cap res and chaos res with harvest, i imagine next league it is going to be much much more difficult to cap resists and chaos resists as well without harvest crafting, so i am not sure, withering presence might be the better option, i mean, creeping frost doesnt need the explosions to help with the clear, the clear is already decent on its own. I would go with PF if you can cap chaos resists, but if not, im sure WP has its place for next league.
@@JOTC yeah it was a bit squishy with chaos res uncapped, due to the low health pool, but i've gone CI and solve the problem ^^ now it's not that squishy, done sirus 4, guardians etc and i'm still at level 87 with my gems at level 19.
Probably going to be my league starter in Heist! Thank you for the build. You didnt mention anything in the video/PoB about what to link Frenzy to, good idea to link it to curse on hit - frostbite - barrage I guess? Also you mentioned summon skitterbots, but with 3 spellslingers you can't reserve that aura? Thanks in advance for the answer!
I've got this set up as spellslinger right now while leveling and noticed cold snap not using frenzy charges. Apparently the cool down thing doesn't work when on spellslinger from what I was able to find online. You still have it linked up in the PoB... Am I missing something, or does it not work as originally intended in the video?
This build lvl's quite well, but mapping leaves a lot to be desired. Took a char thru in standard SSF and then migrated it so I could test with some decent gear. Really struggles and doesn't slow bosses down at all which is quite surprising from the testing I have done with T11 maps lvl72 (low I know but decent gear should help). I really think you need at least lvl 85 + cluster jewels for it to really shine.
@@reignjobst8330 Doing some prelimary testing and it looks like you can still level with Spellslinger. Caveat, My build was running 3 spellslingers, now I can only run 2 and have to switch out one of my gems from GMP to LMP. Still viable but just won't be as fast
@@rcmag13 Ahhh that's great to know ! This will be my second league so still learning :) I league started toxic rain last time then built a cyclone champ which I finished the league on. I think this might be a nice difference to those :) But really thanks for the help!
Hey, thanks for the guide! Sounds great :-) I really would like to know how your cluster-free level 71-90 tree would look like and which of the surrounding remaining nodes are most important to you? I just played a bit around and "Heart of ice" + "Blast radius" + "Arcane focus" for instance are exactly matching 8 points, but if we aren't going for cluster jewels we might skip the preceding small regular jewel cluster as well. What would be your choice?
So Snakepit unique ring is worth 170+ chaos at the league start for about two weeks during Harvest - it should be worth more in Heist since content creators are promoting the build, HOW BAD is the clear without the ring?
I have a question: Is "trigger socketed spells..." on wand necessary and if yes is there a good method to farm this craft? different than "just do Jun maps"
So there is trick I used to get my trigger craft early in the league: Farmed Jun till i got a weapon with the trigger craft. Keep it and try to get Aislin in the research leader position. Once you get the research safehouse, remove the craft from the rare item with the crafting bench and add a new veiled mod via Aislin's bench, its is a 100% chance to get the same veiled mods. Remove the craft and add veiled mods till you have the craft. Took me about a day and got the craft at the end of the weekend.
after your last video on CF i decided to start heist with it the spellslinger version did look kinda nice to level but i'll try to see whats better for leveling - in the end selfcast will be the way to go i'm sure will i stay on CF? idk but there is vortex to transition into, CI or lowlife both are possible endgame ways to go with the build
What you are doing for New players like me its awsome, It even made me want tô play this game again. Thanks
That build he’s got their is like 500c prob more and then their is ball lighting miner 20 c t16 maps 100q plus any mods

Hey Ducks quick question where are you getting 75% spell block on this set up
Hmm debating between this and the tried and true ED/C Trickster. May go ED since it was untouched but this looks really nice too.

It's good, yes, but other builds do better on the same budget. Or when you say there are no issues with Mino for example and two seconds later you get nearly one/two shot, that just makes me feel like you want to advertise the build a little too much.
Like I said, I really like your content, but I don't think you need to "oversell" your builds to make people see that they are good. :)
yeah i go with profane bloom as well, but thats also because it was so damn easy to cap res and chaos res with harvest, i imagine next league it is going to be much much more difficult to cap resists and chaos resists as well without harvest crafting, so i am not sure, withering presence might be the better option, i mean, creeping frost doesnt need the explosions to help with the clear, the clear is already decent on its own. I would go with PF if you can cap chaos resists, but if not, im sure WP has its place for next league.
I played this build for harvest. It's quite squishy but for mapping its quite nice. For Sirus etc, , not so much.
@@JOTC yeah it was a bit squishy with chaos res uncapped, due to the low health pool, but i've gone CI and solve the problem ^^ now it's not that squishy, done sirus 4, guardians etc and i'm still at level 87 with my gems at level 19.
@@John76220 What is CI? Newbie here...
@@steven007covert CI is chaos inoculation , it's a keystone that gives you immunity to chaos and set your life to 1
Probably going to be my league starter in Heist! Thank you for the build.
You didnt mention anything in the video/PoB about what to link Frenzy to, good idea to link it to curse on hit - frostbite - barrage I guess?
Also you mentioned summon skitterbots, but with 3 spellslingers you can't reserve that aura?
Thanks in advance for the answer!
Thanks for the video do you have a recommended written Guide?
I've got this set up as spellslinger right now while leveling and noticed cold snap not using frenzy charges. Apparently the cool down thing doesn't work when on spellslinger from what I was able to find online. You still have it linked up in the PoB...
Am I missing something, or does it not work as originally intended in the video?
Came for the same thing, was wondering if this got nerfed or intented
For me it does trigger it but there is a delai yeah cool down is not equal to 0
Did this build and holy hell is it a monster. only thing i couldnt kill was a8 sirus. just not enough dps
I'm on the fence between this and ED+Contagion.
ed/cont has no single target until you invest 20ex-ish
Im thinking of exact same builds.
@@stempek121 that's why people use Blight for single target, so you don't need to invest more than 1-2exo get anywhere
Ed contagion trickster with the spell bow is amazing.
PoE has elemental reflection, but no chaos reflection... Just for the sake of decision making...
do you think a caustic arrow/toxic rain build will be any good for this, please? (I use mirage archer on rain)
This build lvl's quite well, but mapping leaves a lot to be desired. Took a char thru in standard SSF and then migrated it so I could test with some decent gear. Really struggles and doesn't slow bosses down at all which is quite surprising from the testing I have done with T11 maps lvl72 (low I know but decent gear should help). I really think you need at least lvl 85 + cluster jewels for it to really shine.
How do i put all the gems in the gear & what gems goes with the other? Im pretty new to poe. Seems like a really fun build to go for. :)
Have any of the just released nerfs hit this league start option?
Referring to the self cast version as spellslinger just died.
It will be much harder to level as spellslinger but the endgame build is not affected much
@@rcmag13 Thanks very much :)
@@reignjobst8330 Doing some prelimary testing and it looks like you can still level with Spellslinger. Caveat, My build was running 3 spellslingers, now I can only run 2 and have to switch out one of my gems from GMP to LMP. Still viable but just won't be as fast
@@rcmag13 Ahhh that's great to know !
This will be my second league so still learning :)
I league started toxic rain last time then built a cyclone champ which I finished the league on. I think this might be a nice difference to those :)
But really thanks for the help!
Hey, thanks for the guide! Sounds great :-) I really would like to know how your cluster-free level 71-90 tree would look like and which of the surrounding remaining nodes are most important to you? I just played a bit around and "Heart of ice" + "Blast radius" + "Arcane focus" for instance are exactly matching 8 points, but if we aren't going for cluster jewels we might skip the preceding small regular jewel cluster as well. What would be your choice?
So Snakepit unique ring is worth 170+ chaos at the league start for about two weeks during Harvest - it should be worth more in Heist since content creators are promoting the build, HOW BAD is the clear without the ring?
I also would like to know, how clearing goes without Snakepit.
Thinking I might try this with my Bladefall/Blade Blast power charge stacking Assassin template. Could be cool.
I don't understand, I have the last version of PoB but the link generate an error message
I find an answer in comments ;-)
I have a question: Is "trigger socketed spells..." on wand necessary and if yes is there a good method to farm this craft? different than "just do Jun maps"
So there is trick I used to get my trigger craft early in the league:
Farmed Jun till i got a weapon with the trigger craft.
Keep it and try to get Aislin in the research leader position.
Once you get the research safehouse, remove the craft from the rare item with the crafting bench and add a new veiled mod via Aislin's bench, its is a 100% chance to get the same veiled mods.
Remove the craft and add veiled mods till you have the craft. Took me about a day and got the craft at the end of the weekend.
@@zednar ok, i'll try it this league, thank you ^^
after your last video on CF i decided to start heist with it
the spellslinger version did look kinda nice to level but i'll try to see whats better for leveling - in the end selfcast will be the way to go i'm sure
will i stay on CF? idk but there is vortex to transition into, CI or lowlife both are possible endgame ways to go with the build
Is this a good build for 3.13?
Out of curiosity, could you convert this build to full CI once you get to endgame? Or would that take away from the layered defense
Is this HC viable and can u utiliza Blasphemy somehow into this build with defensive curses?
PoB bugging out when I try to import the build file
same
make sure you are using POB community fork as opposed to official
Just started this on ps4 today. Looking forward to it
Got the tabula in a heist earlier. It only blue screened on me. I am much sad
