Overview Deathly Frostbite

The Deathly Frostbite build is a double ice staff build that focuses on ensuring minor Brittle is always applied to the target. It has a good mix of area of effect abilities and single target damage. This is a trial support DPS build that puts out heavy damage. The Deathly Frostbite has one gnarly chilling affect meant to boost your teams damage by increasing the target's Critical Damage Taken by 10%. The major source of damage from this build will be from the beetles. You also want the Masters Ice staff as this reduces the cost of your main spammable while increasing your weapon/spell damage by 600 for 5 seconds after casting Destructive Reach.
