Icelance Carino 2

Introduction

In Torchlight: Infinite, Carino is a hero character known for his ranged attack capabilities. The "Lethal Flash" is one of his hero traits, enhancing his combat skills. Players often refer to "Carino 2" when discussing the second variant of Carino's Lethal Flash trait, which offers unique abilities and playstyles.

For instance, some players have developed builds focusing on pure physical damage using the Split Shot skill, while others have explored Wilt-based builds or utilized skills like Ice Lances for rapid leveling.

In this guide we’ll be going over the wilt-based Ice lances

Main Changes in SS10 (it’s stronger)

Overview

Where’s my dps? Checklist These aren’t in a particular order

1.) Are the reaps on your weapons truthed to the maximum?
2.) Do you have reap duration micro and medium fates?
3.) Do you have a source of paralysis? Talent tree/slate/grudge on shackles?
4.) Do you have chaos abyss pen stack # corrosion?
5.) Do your slates suck? Probably
6.) Are your hero memories leveled?
8.) Do you have 100% ailment chance? “Others tab to check”
11.) are you dealing critical strikes? If you aren’t you should it doubles the duration of ur ailments (double wilt stacks)

12. Track Versus Rhythm (Track better for maps rhythm better for single target)

Mapping Setup Speed Deepspace:
Frostbitten + Frigid Transmission + Restless Glacier

Noticeable DPS Boosts, Main Scalers & why

1. The faster the trigger rate the more hits per second a .2 trigger is 5 hits per second
2. Even number of +jumps (projectile hits mob -> hits ground -jump -> hits mob -jump etc)

(0.2 trigger with 10 jumps = 25 hits per second PER projectile)

3. +projectiles

Upgrades checklist
Glove Penetration corrosion on chaos abyss was a noticeable upgrade
Reaping duration kismets micro and medium was a noticeable upgrade
Priceless crafted weapons was an extreme upgrade

Thunderspike tech was a extreme upgrade

Level 21 icelances was a noticeable upgrade

Hits per second is important More hits = more wilt
Rhythm timer = n (example .2 rhythm is 5 hits per second so n = 5)
Jump count/2 (rounded down) = x (example 10 jumps = 5 hits per n)

Projectile count = Y (1 projectile is 1 projectile)

n*x*y = hits per second (example .2 rhythm with 10 jump count and 5 projectile count is 5 * 5 * 5 = 125h/ps)

*Note when testing anything on this build adhere to the following to have a somewhat consistent test

Whenever you equip something new, relog or reload the zone at the portal before hitting the dummy if it’s energy based remember to check ur auras The game has really bad snapshotting issues

Since we’re projectile based try to not run towards or away from the dummy when you’re hitting it
(running to target -> more projectiles hit as it cuts the distance they need to travel this causes a misconception with projectile speed giving you more damage. Running away has the opposite effect)

I suggest blinking between two points consistently

Stare at your wilt stacks, since we’re an rng based wilt build sometimes your wilt stacks can spike very high or be very low

Step by Step Progression for noobs when ready to transition to Wilt IceLances: Under construction Widely Requested
This will be very wordy and step by step if this isn’t your thing feel free to skip this section and skim the rest of the guide to make your own path.
At first this path will not be 100% the best most efficient way but it will be tuned to become so
Please note this is NOT every going to be Absolute since it’s heavily variables based on current prices in the economy and strength of mods etc each season it’s just a general progression guide

1. U start with the swap to c2 icelances, 2x supports on icelances, memory daggers with high skill as wilt %, evil heart armor chest
2. Saveup and immediately get chaos abyss gloves(u can substitute with marksmen gloves temporarily) and valerie's night strolls(if too expensive you can substitute with king’s boons temporarily)
3. Try to get your hands on Hekates vision helmet, and either a tracers tear amulet or a false gods with 2x int rolls, or a decaying blessing with high erosion amp and low mana comp
4. Try to get ur hands on a Pedigree of gods, with an affordable main talent or two that will give u a big damage boost ~ refer to the divinity slates section
5. For now grab 1x goddess of deception (with 0.2% blur & 1 all skills) and 3x hunting (with 1x jumps) if the deception is too expensive do 2x deception (just split the .2% blur and 1 all skills onto 2 different slates) and 2x hunting and a cheap pedigree preferably with dirty tricks to guarantee ailments
6. Try to get a 2x blur effect chaotic ending(you'll keep this for a bit) and a crafted t2 ring, crafted t2 belt
7. Save up FE for your ilvl 86 sceptre weapon, You absolutely need to craft both skill% as wilt and the reap T1 hoping for a decent reap roll. Once those affixes are on two weapons and you’ve slammed half decent on the rest of the weapon feel free to grow out of your memory daggers this should be a decent dps boost

T1 Energy Shield/Erosion damage

T1 Reap ->Priority u want a high roll number if low Truth it
T1 Intelligence
T1 Affliction Effect
T1 %skill damage as base wilt damage -Priority

T1 Dot Damage

8. Once you have two fully crafted ilvl 86 sceptres(with t1 reap and t1 skill% as wilt), i strongly recommend getting 9 micro and 4 medium reap duration fates it will be a significant damage boost
9. Save up for an ilvl 86 curse ring(Entangled Pain) & necklace(Corruption) (i don’t recommend self-dreaming these) Getting these skills off of your hot bar is a big deal enabling room for you to get more damage or defense * Note if your hekates helmet is only 1x curse then you’ll have to replace it
10. Once you have two curses off your hotbar I suggest replacing one of those slots with Shackles of malice w/ grudge & defile support this gives you a free source of paralyze and curse effect

ITEMS: Earlygame

As you level replace your campaign gear with this gear

Weapons:
Two memory daggers you’re looking for high skill’s damage as base wilt damage
These will basically hard carry your build for awhile until you replace them when you’re ready to ascend into profound

Helmet: 1 or 2 curse hekates if it’s cheap

Chest:
You’re looking for as high additional ailment as possible on this piece
A corroded version of this will be your BIS endgame chest.

Ideal corrosions - 1.) vile 2.) additional ailment damage

Amulets:

You can use any of these but you’ll quickly upgrade out of them
Coldness tracer = high ailment effective speed
Decaying blessing = high erosion amp aura effect low aura comp
False gods = at least 2 x int rolls

Boots:
You’re just looking for high movement speed on these
A corroded version of this will be your BIS endgame boots even better than lonewalkers
Ideal Corrosions- 1.) Blur effect 2.) Stealth stab (gives weaken)

Gloves:
You’re looking for both high pen stacks and additional wilt damage on these

These could be replaced by ghost slaughters Endgame

Ideal corrosions - 1.) Penetration stacks  2.) additional wilt damage

Rings:
You can go for one double/triple blur chaotic ending or one traceless and one dream crafted with entangled pain
Blur is better than traceless imo
On the tracless you’re looking for .5 reap 2s cooldown on same target for the reap
This season it’s probably just better to get a double or triple blur chaotic ending until u can upgrade to a priceless ring
Both your endgame rings will most likely be priceless rings unless you’re doing an experimental route with maybe burning ice with cannot inflict freeze and winter but this is very expensive and unsure if the math is even that insane for the opportunity cost to fit it in
Ideal corrosions: 1.) reap 2.) whatever

Belt:
Two main options this league,
1.) speed
This is what you’ll wear in maps mainly if you can afford to lose damage
You want high blur effect, defense, and ele resist

2.) damage
A crafted belt going for a reap this is what you’ll be wearing for bosses etc


And helmet crafted or hekates vision(if you can only do 1 curse)

Skills - Earlygame

Main Skill:

(the activation is only for cooldown it doesn’t actually activate choose whatever is cheapest with highest cooldown)

*note for two curses you will need a source of +1 curse, you can decide between poisoned omen pet, +1 curse candle (ONLY EARLY CANDLE TOO IMPORTANT), or verbal abuse instead of more with less

Just a defensive option can be replaced with defensive barrier, frost shield, or another curse for more damage if you don’t have a curse on ring or necklace.


Auras:
The fourth aura won’t be achievable realistically until 90



Or this is preferred

For Seal conversion + restrain make sure both of the supports are
BASE LEVEL 20 (character level 90)  or you won't be able to turn it on!

Passives & Talents lvl 92

Deception
Windwalk (after plague nerf just stay windwalk) + subtle impact

Psychic
(Daze + More with less drop more with less later for verbal abuse for 2 curses)

Shadowmaster

(Dirt + Beyond Cure)

Skills - Midgame

Use track instead of rhythm for mapping

(blink or frigid transmission *NOTE MULTISTRIKE IS ONLY FOR THE COOLDOWN REDUCTION)

Grudge gives paralyze defile gives curse effect


(could do cooldown over reaping agony I dont see a need for it)



(increased area is only for Off The Beaten track)

Skills - Endgame

*note your skills/candles etc will be different depending on the content you are doing, specialization is always better than one static setup for a majority of builds in the game

These images will be for a “Static Setup”

(this can be swapped with blurry steps if u use first trait instead of second with like a +2)

(could use blinding over reaping agony)

Remember to have a source of flat lightning damage either on a slate or erosion magus to get tremble’s effect

Obviously precise restrains are preferred and selfishness is better than malleable ~ this was just taken current if you’re aura stack setup you go strength in numbers

You’ll need mana compensation on either your necklace or helmet to fit 4 50% auras

I DO NOT SUGGEST MALLEABLE

Setups - Endgame

*note these are general ideas and will be improved upon, thank you :)

Ordrak

Basically the idea here is drop all defense for dps no defensive skill or any energy shield in the tree, you just need enough survival for his blast other than that you should survive

Icelances with rhythm instead of track

Frigid transmission instead of blink

Shackles

Thunderspike

Blackhole

SS20/21

You’ll want a balance of defenses and offense. You’ll want enough defense to survive his dash attack.

Icelances with rhythm instead of track

Blink (you could attempt swift shadow raid for hardened but its tricky)

Thunderspike

Defensive skill (i went with delayed pain for injury buffer to help survive savage hits)

Then either Shackles (if you have a fast affliction application) or blackhole if you don’t have a fast affliction application - make sure you have a paralyze application

Mapping Blink Variation

This is the normal setup for the build how it’s basically “intended” to do any content but there are definitely more “Specialized” setups i’ll go on about below.

Mapping Lazy Run Variation

On our first trait we can swap dart shot for shadow magazine at a damage loss but for automatic reloading instead of blinking. That will free up your blink slot for blurry steps or something else. It’s highly recommended to have a high level hero trait on the first slot to try and compensate for the loss of reload. An orange +2 or a red +2 hero trait will make this more plausible.

Mapping Explode full screen

For a source of explode you can either go back to memory daggers (with the skill as wilt corrosion) or slap on praise for injury gloves, some people also go with the kismet for explode

It’s recommended you also pair this with skill area increasers such as eternity belt and soul eater candles

Mapping Fastest build in the game

There’s not many build that can even come close to competing with blur movespeed abuse or freeze frigid transmission abuse. So with that being said i’ll run down the two routes you can go for extreme speed, although it’s very unnecessary since you’ll outrun the rates at which mobs can spawn into a map.

Pure move speed Blur

I know i’m really hyping this up but it’s true no other builds can even come close to this speed unless they are also blur related

How it works is we can abuse blur effect stacking with the sea fog belt

Here’s an example of candle mods that will then amplify this

You can also get a “dangerous” downside that can really ramp ur speed

positive

negative(gives u ms but u take more damage)

You can combine this setup with the “lazy run” setup with blurrysteps instead of blink

But you’ll be even faster if u keep the blink since using ammo recharges the blink ability

Fast move speed and fast blinks mobs won’t keep up

Instant Frigid Transmissions

*note this is clunkier since it’s based on hitting a mob also why builds like ring of ice cannot even come close to competing with the speed of “pure movespeed”

This can be achieved with ice shot (which will instantly freeze a mob it hits) on a second activation

With frigid transmission as your movement

This setup also seems to be particularly good at machines strategies since it will freeze the mobs for the mechanic

Aura Stacker or Magus Abuse (phantom) Setup

Phantom necklace for +11 main skill

Aura stacker

Lonewalkers boots

Strength in numbers aura supports

And enough compensation to only have stuff reserved on health instead of mana

You can get away with maybe swiftness with disciplined on mana

Magus Abuse
Go 3x magus on life maybe able to fit 4? Haven’t done the math

Keep Valerie's boots on not lonewalkers still phantom necklace

Void Bosses/Trial/POB

1 Lone king of Aeterna

You’ll need heavy dot damage mitigation from this boss the defense layers i used are

Full defense (candle mod that gives u -additional dot taken based on ur block chance)

Erosion magus (gives - dot taken)

And 3x -20% elemental damage taken with decent resists

2 Pirate

Just good damage

Blink for movement

If u do the mechanics u never die gg easy money

3 The Law Bearer

I suggest frigid transmission for this one since he has a circle you must be within to damage him, and blink is just a little too far of a movement

Other than that just have good damage and you should be fine!

Experimental Setups

NOTE these setups are experimental and I haven’t done the complete math on them, they just look very good on paper. I’ll personally test some of these soontm

Winter

1. Ring of burning ice w/ cannot inflict frostbite with the “winter” talent on belt or pedigree You will need to have a source of either 100% ailment infliction chance OR dirty tricks

Can get 300 stacks of frostbite = 150% additional damage or 2.5 multi

Crafted Gloves

2. Crafted gloves w/additional damage per jump and +3 skill w/ Pen on rings and maybe 1 weapon?

Math is started on this

crafted gloves
Dream affix: 5% max Resistance
Base affix: 5% max Resistance

Pre: int/es- advanced

Pre: 1.33 - average at 10 jumps 1.06^5 ultimate

Pre: 1.33 - +3 skill level ultimate

Suff: 60% affliction effect advanced

Suff:

Suff:

versus chaos abyss -
about 25% more damage than crafted but less es?

1.7

1.65

and

12% chance for 1 more stack of wilt per hit

Phantom Necklace

3. Phantom necklace w/ reservation crafted on helmet, and base affix on helm + belt w/ precise restrains and seal conversions Most likely will be with magus
4.
