Up through trial 90 I was getting fast clears.Įdit: I would also add that you need frostbolt equipped as one of your primary attacks in order for shatter to work. As a point of reference I used this build to lvl up my character and then switched to frostbeam around trial 100. If you can afford them or get lucky drops a fire lily can help a lot with this build (but isn't neccessary) and a dfa BoM would help a lot too.

Skills not being at 10 shouldn't be a big deal for this build, shatter should deal plenty of damage already, but if it's not you may simply need higher damage weapons and more dmg stats on gear (don't forget +fire dmg and +frost dmg on gear). Hitting a vortexed mob with dfa and then casting frost nova for shatter causes big damage (also useful against bosses). Thermal shock can also be useful with these abilities. What you want to do is run down the middle while casting frost nova followed by immolate (to trigger shatter) and then followed again by dfa (to trigger shatter a 2nd time which works because northern wind is still active). Are you using to shatter to gather mobs? All you mentioned was firing shots and using vortex. I'm not sure what gear you have but dfa should be able to comfortably clear at least 90. Any suggestions? BTW, I have the full ELR and GM set with Integrales Mantle and recipes for all of it. I maxed my speed to 27, still challenging to clear the map fast enough. Also practicing moving and DfA more while engaging mobs to evade those one-shot distance killers. I just reached T65 and got killed by Vortexed mobs a couple times, so I scored more gems and added Armor and Vitality Brilliants to my gear.

Some of these abilities are new to me.Īlso, any tips on drawing mobs? The advice to run down the middle and fire shots, plus Vortex, is all I've got. No idea how significant the 1 second on Frost Nova and the slightly larger area on Immolate might be. Gaining another bolt with DfA could help, too. The Meteor possibilty at 10 for primary Firebolt attack looks like it might be the most useful for ANB. I've got 36 hours and 24 hours left on two I'm cooking to 9.

The lack of BoLs is a major hangup, and I don't have time to try to score more outside of trials. Playing on tablet, so opted for DfA build based on helpful pinned Guide here. I'm doing ELR with GM Fire Mage with Sash of the Ignitor, ToS, VoWS. Have several Abilities at 9, except passives, using all slots. This time, I've got 2 Research slots, but getting few BoLs. With Warrior, Whirlwind was the obvious choice.
