[3.20] Ice Dancing Queen - Icestorm/Cyclone/CI - Viable For Everything

A question: you mention running vortex together with bonechill. I'm not really up to speed with mechanics, but what I'm currently running is bonechill in a 4L with frostblink - bonechill - increased aoe - ele prolif. Should that be fine as well? Or is vortex better in some way that I'm missing?

And a question I asked earlier: what is the reason for running CwC at level 15?

Really anything to proc bonechill will work. Vortex is amazing because we just need to chill and vortex being persistent means its very easy to maintain. Though the biggest upside is you can cast vortex while doing anything. Even if you're standing self-casting your icestorms on a boss you can hold down your vortex key and ensure bonechill is up which you can do as easily with frostblink.

Offer the seller 4 or 5 alchemy orbs. Most will usually take that.

DO i have to manually check something in the pob? The high end cluster pob doesnt even remotely show the dps that is in the maven video; im kinda reluctant because of that. Where is the missing dps in the pob? It only shows me the 600k per hit, but doesnt give any aggregated value

PoB does not know how to calculate damage correctly. Average hit it shows is damage of single shard, and total DPS is one shard times how many storms you create per second. It doesn't know that each storm gives shard every 0.2s.

So dps you can get is 25 times the average damage. If all the shards hit, but that is not really the case.

It was explained somewhere in this megathread, but basically Kelvynn did the math and that's the sweet spot in maximizing storm damage. Since the storms have a cap on how many now, you want CwC to trigger at a rate that doesn't cause storms to end prematurely, and 15/16 is the value that provides the most triggers with minimal overriding of existing storms.

However it will play mostly the same.
As of 3.18, using the WI earlier than 38 (SSF) is tricky.
I have just hit 47, and cruised through Cruel Lab.
Act 6 will be another jump in danger.

Thank you for this build.
