The core idea here is all about the Ice Hydra summon spam for crazy consistent AoE damage — basically, you’re keeping those Hydras pumping out damage non-stop. Pair that with Mana Shield, and you’ve got ridiculous survivability, so you can stand in the fire without sweating.
On top of that, mixing frost and lightning skills gives you that perfect combo of burst damage and utility — you’re basically a mobile, high-damage frost lightning beast. Super fun build for anyone who loves spamming Hydras and staying alive while melting everything in sight.
| Skill | Role | Details |
| Ice Hydra | Main DPS | Summons multiple hydras to deal constant frost damage. |
| Ball Lightning | Secondary DPS | Adds additional ranged elemental damage, pairs well with Ice Hydra. |
| Lightning Spear | Utility / DPS | Increases summon effectiveness and coverage. |
| Mana Shield | Defensive | Converts 99% of max health into mana, boosts mana regen if not hit. |
Skill Guidance:
Frost Element:Cranks up the damage of your Ice Hydra, making those summons hit even harder;
Lightning Element:Boosts your Ball Lightning and Lightning Spear, giving you more burst and utility;
Summoning Affinity:This is a must — it ups the number and strength of your hydras, turning your summon game into a full-on damage factory.
Basically, pick these to maximize your Hydras’ damage, keep your burst sharp, and just dominate with consistent AoE.
Optimal Gear
| Slot | Items | Role |
| Helm | Hail of Verglas | Boost Ice Hydra damage. |

So, you activate Mana Shield to keep your health buffer high and mana in check. Then, you summon your Ice Hydras — they’re your main damage dealers, so keep them up and snamming. After that, you cast Ball Lightning and Lightning Spear to add extra burst damage and cover those AoE needs.
Throughout the fight, you gotta keep an eye on your cooldowns and buffs — making sure everything lines up for maximum uptime. And don’t forget to leverage your legendary gear bonuses to boost both your survivability and damage output. It’s all about maintaining that flow, staying alive, and melting everything in your path.
