I'd say half of wizards should be using it simply because of the blizzard builds.

guys in the post were saying it doesnt work with any hydras?? have anyone tested them?

I'm guessing this is a bug but is there any word about if it might be intended and just a tooltip error?

Even if you aren't using any cold spells it's still the best passive to get imo, just give your follower a cold weapon and get a 20% dmg boost

That's a great idea in theory, but it requires your follower staying alive.

Absolutely not. Followers tend to die, and generally hit one target at a time.

Hmm, an ability called "Cold Blooded," no negative drawbacks and a bigger bonus than Glass Cannon...I'll let you decide.

Does this apply to Hydra aswell?

in the original post they say it doesnt, but Im not sure they tested all of the hydras, so dunno, anyone?

Not my follower, perhaps you should invest a bit in yours.

Currently farming Act III. I use the scoundrel, bow w/cold damage, 52k hp and ~1500 LoH. He really never dies and CC's the hell out of whatever I'm facing.
