Path of Exile EB Frost Templar Build by CNKalmah
This build utilizes both melee skills and spells, with high life, a large mana pool, resistances and good damage output. Running 7 auras by level 60, using Glacial Hammer & Ice Nova as main attacks. Can be played easily in Hardcore Difficulty.
Help Oak for all 4 difficulties.
Once build level 74 is reached grabbing the remaining 6% Cold damage nodes, Life % or Mace Damage Nodes - Depending on gearing and style of play.
Note that Ice Nova's damage is just as important as Life/Armor since it is linked with life leech.
Ideal statistics are listed by order of importance - The top 3 should be relatively easy to achieve.
Also to be noted : There is a difference between Cold Damage % and Cold Damage which increases your damage by a set number (EG: 10-24) as opposed to a percentage.
Skills
These will be updated regularly as I am still constantly updating and trying new techniques with the build.

How does this build work for you in the later difficulties? Do you have enough damage mitigation to be viable?
I see you speced into a lot of damage spells/skills, but not very many defensive.
How are you handling your defenses in the later difficulties? Do you find that you have enough damage mitigation to be viable?
I notice you speced into a lot of damage skills/spells, but not very many defensive. I would be interested to know how you have survivability late game. Is it totally gear dependent?
Thanks.
