[3.25] Ignite Frostblink Elementalist

Intro & build description

This build is one of the most solid league starters around and will undoubtedly shine in 3.25. What sets this build apart from many others is that it uses movement skill for clearing maps.
This playstyle allows it to clear quickly and reach the endgame in the very first days.

Build Pros

  • Excellent map clear
  • Can run T16s in the first days with a few chaos investment
  • Reasonably survivable, with 100% spell suppression
  • Fairly decent at bossing due to fire trap
  • SSF-friendly

Build Cons

  • Frostblink requires some cooldown management

Helmet

Eye of Malice

This is one of the core items of the build, try to get it as soon as possible.

When currency allows it, buy one with 90% socketed gem mana multiplier – this would allow you to use an additional aura when linked with Enlighten.


Body Armour

Bronn's Lithe

Bronn’s Lithe is the perfect body armor for the build, since no other item gives such a huge bonus to movement skill damage and levels.


Gloves

Rare Evasion Gloves

In the endgame, our target gloves are ones with fractured spell suppression chance, 30% more damage over time for socketed skills and high life. Other useful stats would be resistances / +1 level of socketed AoE gem crafted mod.


Boots

Rare Evasion Boots

Look for rare evasion-based boots with high life, increased movement speed and spell suppression chance. Resistances / extra evasion is also good to have.


Left Ring

Profane Proxy

Use Profane Proxy in your left ring slot, socket Flammability in it for automatic application.


Right Ring

Rare Ring

Look for rare ring with high life, damage over time multiplier and increased fire damage. Other usable mods would be resistances, flat evasion, attributes if you are missing any.


Amulet

Rare Citrine Amulet

Look for citrine amulet with high life, damage over time multiplier and strength. Such and amulet will help us get the required attributes, solid damage boost and life.

Resistances and things like crafted area damage are good bonuses.


Belt

Rare Stygian Vise

Look for rare stygian vise with high life, resistances.

Craft increased cooldown recovery rate on it.


1Hand Weapon

Rare Sceptre

Initially look for sceptre with high increased fire damage + at least 30% to fire damage over time multiplier.

In the endgame, look to add +1 to all cold spell skill gems to the mods mentioned above. Fire damage to spells is also a good additional mod to have


Offhand

Rare Evasion Shield

Look for rare evasion-based shield with high life, at least 12% spell suppression and high elemental resistances. Additional evasion is nice to have as well.


Jewel

Jewel Setup

Build uses 2 large cluster jewels with 12% increased fire damage notables.

On these cluster jewels, we should get following nodes: Widespread Destruction, Burning Bright, Prismatic Heart, Smoking Remains (Any of these 3 nodes on each jewel).

On regular rare jewels, look for increased maximum life, fire damage over time multiplier, increased fire damage, fire damage to spells (abyss jewel).

A good endgame upgrade is a Watcher’s Eye with increased damage over time multiplier while affected by Malevolence.


Flask

Flask Setup

Build uses following flasks:

1) Quicksilver flask with increased movement speed
2) Silver Flask
3) Divine Life Flask with bleed removal
4) Jade Flask
5) Granite Flask
