I don't think it works that way though, if I read the wiki. I'd like to know if this is the case as I've been wondering this for a while. It also goes for shock and ignite.

The wiki says:
By default, only cold damage is able to inflict freeze, but certain equipment can alter the default behavior such as The Three Dragons can change which damage types are able to inflict freeze.

And then:
Base freeze duration is 60 milliseconds (0.06 seconds) for every 1% of the target's maximum life (before party scaling) dealt by cold damage, up to a maximum of 50% (3 seconds). Freezes with a duration smaller than 0.3 seconds are discarded, effectively requiring a hit of 5% enemy life.[2] As an example, The Shaper has approximately 20 000 000 life. Minimally freezing The Shaper requires a single hit of 1 000 000 cold damage.

So, this would mean that you won't actually freeze opponents unless you deal enough cold damage, which you do not if you just have a source of cold damage and add hypothermia. Otherwise you could essentially do the same for all types of elemental ailments.

Let me know if this is correct.

Thanks for the guide!
Are you planning on updating it? Some items like tombfist have changed so I'm wondering if it's still good for this build(attack speed removed).

The freezing part actually doesn't really matter, it is really just the chill part that we care about that we are getting the extra buff from Hypothermia. The best example of seeing this in action is the build gameplay video. You can hear the shattering of multiple enemies because they are freezing and getting chilled. This is with just relying on some small flat cold damage from a jewel alone.

With Shaper, you might want to swap out the gem for something else though, because we would not deal enough cold damage to reliably freeze/chill them. We would want to swap Hypothermia in this case. With mobs, it works just fine. Hopefully that makes some more sense.

And to be honest, this build was from a bit ago and an extremely old league starter that I used like a year ago. It is a bit outdated and definitely so compared to my other guides that have gotten better over months/years. When I say outdated, I don't mean without updated skilltrees and whatnot, but just the way I wrote it and the understanding of the game.

Good luck.

Can this be done with dual Claws? Anyone have a build for that?

where are you getting 95% crit chance from?

even fully gemmed etc. on path of build this only gets to about 55% (for level 90 char) and 60-70% range for level 100

are you able to provide a PoB link?
