*Build Description*

Path of Exile 2.3 "Prophecy" adds two new cold spells to the game: Frostbolt and Vortex. We'll be playing a hit & run caster, similar in spirit as my Essence Drain & Contagion Shadow from Talisman League. A key difference is that we are doing cold damage, which freezes things. Frozen things don't try to kill us. This means we probably spend more time hitting, and less time running.

*Gems & links*

- 4-6L: Frostbolt + Added Cold Damage + Spell Echo + Cold Penetration + Hypothermia + Faster Casting
- 4L: Vortex + Faster Casting + Added Cold Damage + Increased Area of Effect
- 4L: (Stone/Ice) Golem + Vaal Summon Skeletons + Minion Life + Minion Damage
- 3L: Frost Bomb + Added Cold Damage + Increased Area of Effect
- 3L: Flame Dash + Faster Casting + Frostbite
- 1L: Discipline, Vaal Discipline, Clarity

Strategy: Frostbite curse the pack, then thrown in a Frost Bomb. Next cast Frostbolts into the pack and finish with Vortex as needed. Protip: wait for a Vortext to pass through the pack, then explode it to backstab monsters with the explosion. This way both the Frostbolt and Vortext deal full damage!

Flame Dash is to get you out of trouble, or across obstacles. The Stone Golem will tank for you in the early game. Later on, you switch to the Ice Golem to increase your damage output.

Discipline increased your ES pool, and Vaal Discipline is a panic heal. If your ES runs out and you start taking Life damage, run away and pop Vaal Discipline.

Vaal Skeletons is completely optional, but as a panic skill it works pretty well. 30 Skeletons are a VERY good "meat" shield in scary situations!

Clarity helps you regenerate mana, because this build is HUNGRY for mana.

*Items*

This is a Shadow that uses mostly blue and green gems, so using ES/Evasion armour is a natural fit. As a result, we will not have a lot of Armour, nor will Dodge (via Acrobatics) be viable because it kills our Energy Shield and block. I'm prioritizing ES and Evasion, but more Life is never a bad thing, either. I'm going Wand + ES Shield, to capitalize on spell damage bonuses. We are not locked to a weapon type, so a good Dagger or Sceptre is going to work just as fine.

For rare/crafted gear, get the highest level base armours (doh!). Mods priority: resists, +ES/evasion (best armours have +ES/evasion% and +ES/evasion), life/regen, mana/regen. Spell damage and +spell cold damage are obviously good on weapons. Boots with movement speed are very useful as well.

Unique items to consider: Lifesprig is a decent starter wand. Eclipse Solaris can be fun for defense later on. Heartbreaker is a fun dagger. Kaltenhalt is a nice early game shield, especially with the Prophecy upgrade to Kaltensoul. The +5% max cold resist makes it endgame viable due to mitigating 20% of elemental reflection damage. The same can be said of Aegis Aurora shield, though it is VERY rare/expensive. Carcass Jack is a very nice endgame body armour due to defensive stats and a nice bonus to Vortex' AoE radius & damage. In the early game, Doedre's Tenure are decent gloves to increase DPS and reduce mana usage. Bated Breath belt is a nice early game ES boost. Atziri's Foible amulet is a very good early game boost to your mana regeneration.

*Bandits*

Normal: help Oak for 40 HP, it's hardcore after all! Other difficulties: kill them all, get the skill point.
