I wonder how it will interact with totems. Like if you plop down an ice nova totem and start spamming frost bolt, will you get novas coming off of the frostbolts? I know it doesn't work that way currently, but this change kind of seems to imply that it will. If it does work that way then that's my build for 3.5.

Ah, can't spam vortex anymore with a cast on x build. I guess people will swap it out for frost nova now that it does something similar. Or use all three skills, and just slam vortex whenever it's available for another chunk of damage? Instant skills with cooldowns... getting a bit MMO-esque in here.

All of these cold skill revamps make me think 3.5 will be Ice Cave League

Vortex being instant cast with a cooldown, auto targeting the frostbolts is a good idea if they expect players to actually use it. Because the old system sucked rear end. I still doubt this will be used, but at least it's not hot garbage like before.

As someone who is honorbound to start every new league with a new or reworked skill when possible I hope the remaining ones are better because none of these cold skills are doing it for me

Especially in an online, multiplayer RPG that is only missing the "massive" part?

Curious to see if they do anything to make Ice Crash anything but a worse Glacial Hammer. I always enjoyed its aesthetics but it's just so incredibly bad

It's not an MMO until they let you have 30 skills on your skill bar.

I've never played a caster so maybe I should try one next league. If only to be "that guy" melting everyone's gpu by filling the screen with balls in parties.

Maybe a buff to spell echo would help out self-cast?

I'd like spell echo more if it didn't make you cast twice (thereby rooting you in place longer), but just fired off two copies of the spell simultaneously without any bonus to cast speed or penalty to spell damage.

This would be good. I'd like to see some sort of spell based mirage archer than only works with self cast.

Wouldn't firing 2 copies with no other changes be a 100% more modifier? I like the idea but it would need a damage penalty. I'd say 35% less ramping down to 25% less at level 20, making it in line with other more damage supports at 50% more. And love the idea of a mirage archer for spells.

Yeah, I suppose a damage penalty would be necessary, but much like multistrike the real bad feeling part is that it roots you in place for the duration, and that's ultimately what probably needs to be changed to make self-casting a more viable option.

Groupo/Guild Self-Found would actually be kinda neat, but no point in fracturing things further I guess (and yeah I get that it's a joke)

A descendancy class based around making yourself apparently weaker but actually benefiting certain builds could be fun. You could have keystone nodes be stuff like: "Curses last 100% longer on you." "Moving causes you to start bleeding" "You are hit for 250 physical damage when you attack" "You are stunned after spending 200 mana" "You lose 20% of your maximum mana each second" "Whenever you take damage, your minions take three times that damage." "Your hits cannot kill mobs"
