Can someone tell me if I can optimize this better? I'm sure I can but I am really bad at building this and I might have overlooked something: Goals are for strongboxes as best possible, breach (density), harby, abyss (rares not depths), and legion maximized with altars.

Edit: the 200% favored map nodes are optional, but I turn them on when im starting to be low on my favored.

So the immediate problem with Heatshiver and Trickster is that it's an evasion helm. Makes that two point notable half as effective. Maybe not a big deal, but don't like it. The other issue is that "freezing" Ubers is no small amount of damage. I kinda doubt spark can pull that off given it's more a frequent hits type of skill.

Yea I didn't even go down the ES path because of the helm problem. Just went with heartstopper instead.

I think with enough cash on hand berserker is the way to go for heatshiver and you rely on the triple rage node for flat phys and ride big fat phys > cold conversion and hatred.

For people that have done CoC builds, what is the CDR you are trying to hit in respect to your APS/CPS?

I had an assassin named StabbyMcNig that I was forced to change also after logging in since not playing for 3 years.

Ah I have a few characters with that expired name thing, I wasn't sure what it was for. I figured maybe they put timers on names if someone tried to make a char with it and the owner was idle for too long.

I used to have a bunch of offfensive named ones. Maybe that's why I got locked out. Interesting lol.

Found an interesting Frost Blades - Heatshiver profile.

It looks to have at least some defenses via endurance charges. There's also some other stuff like using the regen from Enduring Cry as rage generation. I don't know if it's actually good, glass cannon trickster just feels wrong.

Did you mean to link a different profile? That's a Slayer not a Trickster.

Yep. I mentioned Trickster because it's somewhat meta to build it glass cannon with frost blades and heatshiver. About half the ascendancy is defensive, so it feels wrong do that. So, I've been looking for something "feels" better.

Hmm I don't really know the math offhand on 8 endurance charges vs just having a pile of 40k armor or whatever, but it should work out to be pretty good? Rage is undoubtedly strong for this setup though, as any source of flat added damage is gets double benefit from heatshiver doing it's thing.

I did an uber maven last night and freeze seemed to work just fine. Still died a couple times cause I'm bad and it's still an attack skill, but damage was not an issue at all. I should be able to clean up feared and the rest of the challenges on this now from the looks of things.

You're not wrong about "wasting" the good defensive nodes on trickster though. Taking heartstopper feels really weird and it's had to tell if it ever actually matters or does anything.

I think POE.ninja banned my account's ability to have builds show up on it too. Some deep rustling going on.

Going with this for HC Ruthless Atlas Tree:
