Any idea of how I could improve this character? Frost Heartseeker Markswoman

Here’s my current character.

There are a few defenses - dodge, high mobility, freezing enemies, decoy - but the thing is, being hit equals death. A single attack big enough to be telegraphed is an instant one-shot. Honestly, this doesn’t bother me that much - it’s fun, if a bit stressful, to try to play avoiding stuff.

I know there’s a far more popular build using similar items to make Heartseeker proc Puncture, but I prefer my current build (I love seeing the Heartseeker arrows moving from enemy to enemy).

I’m not using Smoke Cloud due to how it limits mobility - if I were to stay within the small area of the cloud, I would die within seconds.

Any suggestions on how to improve this build?

  1. More raw HP points - like 3k+
  2. More armor - I usually aim at 50% dmg reduction, if possible, meaning stacking some strength - change your blessings to +armor, that would fix most of you one-shot problems (spirits of fire and age of winter blessings)
  3. Maybe you could fin a place to put some HP regen here and there, so you will be less prone to DOTs. Also switching base of the amulet from Bone to Oracle would help

Just my 3 cents :slight_smile:

ps. also find some piece of gear with chance to frailty - it helps a lot :slight_smile:

I don’t have time to see through your build right now but what I can say is that imo Smoke Cloud is quite mandatory in a heartseeker build. If nothing else it gives you a guaranteed dodge for the next attack that would hit you. That effect is stackable, so you should cast Smoke Cloud everytime it is off cooldown.
