This build is a complete lvl 60 setup and is UP-TO-DATE with the new relic subclass rework. The subclass used is Cold Heart. I consider the build as underpowered and far from META. It can dish out decent damage when we are buffed up & our energy is full and that damage comes from Cyclone Mode + Vortex Bomb + Ice Shield. Once some bugs get fixed and hopefully Frost Skin also gets a massive cooldown decrease, this build (in the way I've synergized it) will stop being uderpowered and be a very nice setup to play. A nice source of extra damage comes from Sonic Pulse which applies +40% dmg vulnerability. To make things better we get another +25% Damage Buff, some crowd control & lil bit of extra DPS from Snowstorm (sadly currently with a bugged T3 bonus so no real 100% crit chance vs frozen). Cyclone Mode + Vortex Bomb + Ice Shield when used in the right order, and after activating Snowstorm & applying Sonic Pulse, can result in some very good DPS combo Adding to this the DPS of Cold Front + Ice Shield's DPS and the damage piles up. Ice Shield also gives us a buff that lets us ignore fully the next 3 sources of damage every 20 seconds. Combine it with Frost Skin that lets us ignore fully the damage received from 1 source of damage every 35 seconds (this is the cooldown that needs to be lowered A LOT) + Fighter's Spirit (+50% or +70% with the Vortex Bomb T2 upgrade dmg reduction after using a melee skill/attack) and we get some nice survivability. To make things extra spicy we cast a Frost Nova every time Frost Skin breaks via Breaking Point. Ramming Robot is also our escape mechanic and mobility skill and can hit enemies to proc Fighter's Spirit . Skittering Shoulders (even without a set bonus) is a great source of survivability so it could be used instead of the Arc-Powered shoulders if you would rater get more dmg reduction and you're not wearing the Mountain King's Shoulders either.

Torchlight 3 started its Steam Early Access phase on June 13th 2020.
