Ok guys.
I accidentally destroyed my freezing pulse gem, *sigh*.

You can get a freezing pulse gem in like 1 minute if you just make a new char, run all the way to the boss, kill him, and turn the quest in :p

soo, assuming you can get a hold of an item powerful enough to exceed the value of a mirror of kalandra, you would have found a source of infinite ingame wealth didnt you? just mirror, sell copy, rinse and repeat.

Freezing Pulse is good, not sure what AoE would be better for you to use. Yeah your damage is too low for mana drinker atm, but it's okay. Frenzy nodes definitely worth it if you're going to use it, one of the best single target dps skills.

Chug along them mana potions.

How much should I offer for Arc/Spell Totem gems, by the way? Especially the latter...

In that theory the value of the item would drop with each copy making it finite

So one thing I'm really unsure about so I thought i'd ask here.
When it a passive skill says "x% increased Critical Strike chance", does it include spells as well ? Or only physical damage.
I know there are skill that increase only Spell Crit Chance, which is why i'm a little confused, especially since there's so much non-spell crit around the witch start. Same question for the crit damage multipliers.

And another question : when it says that it increases one handed weapons damage, does it include one handed weapons that are dual wielded ?

I can give you an Arc if you're on default. Spell Totems are selling for a few chaos I believe. You may be able to snag one cheaper if you're lucky.

well sure if youre into it big enough that it becomes a large scale thing and people recognize. so yeah, its not really infinite, but it should be a way to make quite a nice amount of currency for a while

I'm on HC, just been gathering a bunch of eq/gems for the build I've been wanting to run, I'm just going to need an Arc/STotem down the line so I've been tracking the forum for a bit, just not sure how much I should be offering ~_~;

Is it alright to play a dual-wielding axe marauder and just get +str/dex/accuracy/axe skills?

Can someone please comment on my Ice crit witch + Chaos Inoculation , using Blood Rage + Life leech with Inner force buffs?

Not sure how mana intensive it is (only lvl 20 first runthrough) But I worked on this passive build for an hour -.- . Is this viable?

That's mostly good, but there are a few optimizations you can easily do.
1- Grab Assassination, remove some +15% crit chance nodes.
2- Grab Shield Mastery and the 2x15% elemental resist nodes behind it. This is a lifesaver for cruel/merciless. You can respec out of it lategame if you can max your resists without it.
3- Grab the Dex node on the way to movespeed + nullification instead. You'll want those near the endgame.
4- You spend a lot of points for 2 curses. This might be worth it eventually, but I'd get more damage/survivability and see how much a 2nd curse would really help.
5- You might want to grab the Fitness lifenode if you need strength. It's only +20, but the +10% life helps you vs chill, freeze, stuns and shock even with CI.
6- Grab Heart of Ice.

It's funny because I have friends I've been telling about the game for over a year now who would never try it during the closed beta just now picked it up and acting like I never told them how good the game was now it seems like nearly everyone I know is playing it.

vendor stores re-itemize every time you level

I found a 4L Circlet via vendor

you can also find 3L GRB items in vendor. buy them for 1 Orb of Transmutation and sell back for a Chromatic.

Levelups are few and far between now sadly. My problem is more that I want it to be a glove so that I don't lose a ton of resists. I already found a 4L Helm that I could use instead if I get bored of farming Ledge.
