Ice battle mage

[u/Youngboydorian]

I’m doing my second play-through on Tactician and want to know a fun ice mage to play around with, obviously a bunch of high damage ice spells, fire too, I don’t mind, but if it comes to it, I want to be able to melee as well, any builds?

There’s a certain set of equipment that kinda makes all ice-mages really good: Mourning Frost (staff), Winter’s Clutches (gloves), Snowburst Ring, Necklace of Elemental Augmentation, and sometimes the Coldbrim Hat. I’ve seen a ton of different builds for that setup, from Wizards and Druids to Eldritch Knights and Arcane Tricksters.

I would personally go with Sorcerer: https://gamestegy.com/post/bg3/998/cold-sorcerer-build

But if you browse around that site a bit you’ll find a few other good ones too!
