Cast on freeze issue

[Lana_Ray]

Cast on freeze says it uses 60 spirit, I have 93 but it says I don't have enough so I can't activate it. Anything I'm missing?

Do you have a ton of support gems socketed in it?

Nah, no support gems on it at all. I literally just got it.

Edit: I know the required spirit goes up because I noticed that with Arctic Armour.

I wonder, I have 60 from bosses +30 in ACT 1 +30 in ACT 3 then +33 from chest piece does it maybe not count armour ?

take off ALL skill in your skills slot. empty it. then re-assign cast on freeze again, turn on the aura. see if it works.

Did this work? It shows its activatable now but when right clicked nothing happens...

They did some changes to trigger gems. Your build got nerfed it seems:
"Trigger Gems and Energy Gain

Trigger gem energy gain was not in the right place and it was far too easy to use ailments to trigger spells. One problem with the previous system is that if we balanced it to make triggering happen in boss fights then the triggering would happen far too often during clearing. In order to address this we are now making "Monster Power" part of the calculation for energy gain. This means that it's far easier to trigger skills from Unique Monsters than it is from normal monsters, but you also hit many more normal monsters when fighting. Another issue was using low level skills with unconditional ailment applications such as Flame Wall to ignite enemies for triggering. In order to make the source of the ignite matter we are making the energy gain be dependent on the strength of the ignite. We have also rebalanced all energy gain across the board."

This annoys me. "Ah darn yall learned how to play the game and were trivilizing our carefully crafted content. We cant have that so we are tweaking the numbers behind the scenes to make doing this thing yall learned to do more difficult."

I understand the need for balancing to maintain a sense of accomplishment and challenge for dopamine reward and progression but the skill is Literally CAST ON ______ if you make ______ happen every 3 seconds...then it should keep happening every 3 seconds. Invalidating peoples progress because "mah difficulty" is dirty.

It works yeah. I tested today with Comet. Put Cast on Freeze or whatever one you use then put the skill you want it to proc in one of the support slots. It takes up a decent amount of spirit so keep that in mind. With the recent change to cast on x skill it doesn't proc much. I manually cast mine.

The nerf wasn't necessary especially with grenade merc casually just nuking everything and that seems fine according to the devs. Get some cast speed. There's a 20% cast speed amulet, can also use a support gem to speed it up and manually cast it yourself. You'll get a lot more out of it than using cast on freeze as it is right now.

Holy crap, i've been struggling trying to figure this out as well. Wish it didn't let you put it there. Thanks.
