[3.14] Ice Spear/Freezing Pulse Totems | Leveling with Penguin Video Series | Budget

Shameful Plug


Intro
สปอยล์

Hey everyone!

This build is for those who followed my Leveling with Penguin series, and want to start early maps.

This build is both Freezing Pulse and Ice Spear. You can either:
1. Gem swap (Ice Spear for boss, Freezing Pulse for mapping)
2. Only use Freezing Pulse or Ice Spear

Obviously gem swapping is annoying, but it is the most optimized for damage and speed. While testing I tried both Freezing Pulse for all content, as well as Ice Spear for all content with no gem swaps. It is certainly doable if that is your preferred method. I will have some notes in the Gems section for those that are interested.

Also, keep in mind all my testing was done on a 5L.

If you have any questions feel free to leave it on my YouTube video, as I will be able to respond quicker!

Hope you enjoy!


Changelog

3.15
League of Nerfs!

- Pretty much all support gems were nerfed across the board, so keep that in mind. I'm not gonna name them all, because none were game breaking though it is going to be a damage loss (welcome to 3.15).

- Once PoB updates, I will post a new one with changes to anything, for now it seems viable.

3.14
New build!
