Quick Guide to Icicle Cloud: Stormblade Build
By Yelena.
Personal Insights:
Upon rerolling fbs to achieve 4/3 point blank shot and complete the build to hopefully improve the damage output of the icicles in this stormblade build, it is safe to say that this build works for stormblade but with a very low ceiling
The highest dps that I could reach with stormblade using this build was around 150m despite maximizing the crit passives, crit chances (3/3 crit cast; hex brutality), and the crit damage (600%).
Recommendations:
One factor that could probably boost this build’s damage is the INT armor set. I personally overlooked this when building my stormblade. Another is the extra hex fatebounds that I have (hex frigid core and hex brutality). These fatebounds were in my insane necklace and ring and I just decided to use them as hexlar rather than finding another one (frostheart is super hard to find). If it has either point blank shot or heavy ordinance as its main fb, I would have leeway to put in the worldbane armor to have additional INT and damage overall.
Since it would be ‘grindy’ for me to switch to these recommendations, I decided to forgo the opportunity to fully maximize the build and just give people the chance to do it themselves if they ever wanted to do this build.
