Cold DOT DEEP DIVE - [OUTDATED, RIP Vortex] PoE 3.23

Phaze's Cold DOT Deep Dive. Elementalist, Ascendant, Hierophant, Trickster, Occultist, and Champion compared for Path of Exile 3.23 Affliction

THIS VIDEO IS OUTDATED ► DO NOT PLAY COLD DOT IN 3.23!
3.23 Patchnotes: Vortex now has a 0.75 second Cast Time (previously instant)
Cold DOT is essentially unplayable with a cast time on Vortex
Even if there's a "Transfigured" Vortex that makes it instant cast, it's still not recommended to play as Cold DOT only excels for leaguestarting and a specific gem early especially in SSF.
Figured I'd post the video anyways for entertainment purposes since I spent quite a bit of time on it leading up to 3.23, hope you guys enjoy

All Cold DOT Ascendancies are Compared and Ranked based on Mapping, Bossing, Damage, Defense, Mobility, SSF, and Cost.
Covers the mechanics of Vortex, Creeping Frost, Cold Snap, and Vaal Cold Snap
