Build Guide

This build is purely theoretical; Items to make it even work are not yet available. I'm sure refinement could also be done in the skills chosen:



Obviously, this build aims to have 100% uptime on Frost Nova by stacking CDR and using the new Seasonal legendary Wizard Ring, Halo of Arylis. Skills were chosen to complement EE and +% damage multiplier were available.



A few skills are obviously negotiable. Signature; Barrier Blades and Glacial Spike are possibilities. This build CANNOT use Blackthorne's, so I went with Barrier Blades. It also has the advantage to being Arcane for EE.



Teleport is negotiable; once again, the build is fragile, and the ability to teleport to avoid affixes and stun defensively I think should be useful. Safe passage is also possible.



As for Passives, you're pretty much stuck with EE, CB, and Evocation. You need all the CDR you can get. I went with Anomaly because I aim to be a replacement, if possible, for a WD - which means my death is the death of the group. It's possible there is a better choice, such as Blur, here. Once again, this build is purely theoretical and is only here to link to the forums to illustrate my ideas.
