Cold Chronomancer Advice

Thanks in advance. Playing the below Cold Chronomancer build (CoF and CoC). Only just started A4 at level 43 but going smooth so far, very tanky and pretty fun to play. https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/cold-cast-on-crit-archmage-paintmaster?ws-ngf5-f7d82102-7e77-4a44-ad24-33b67e8ae7bf=activeVariantId%2Cb89a58ad-eb00-4741-beca-4a2c1133f3f9 I have not been able to gather any crit % gear yet ahead of CoC at level 58. I am going to run both Hypothermia and Temporal Chains via Blasphemy as i love not the mana save and not needing to cast the curses, although this comes at a cost of 120 spirit. With CoC reserving 100 spirit versus the 60 spirit of CoF, is it worth having a second CoF (lower level) instead? As above i have no crit items and CoF+Comet already procs a lot. I noticed it on the below build I stumbled across: https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/cold-snap-frostbolt-stormweaver-leveling-guide Has anyone played this build? I think Frostbolt may provide a much faster clear speed for maps vs waiting for Frost Bomb explosion? Thanks!

You'r fav female outfit skin

Hi all I'm new to early access and have a lvl 30 witch. But most of the armor pieces are ugly as heck. Any one know if all pieces can be dropped with higher Ilvl in the later game ? I don't know what GGG plans are on there cosmetic up grads as it aperas to not have any options right now other than the back(pack) mods IE. spider legs. It would be nice to play dress up with godly gear. I think I heard PoE 1's contributes can be transferd over to PoE 2 !? My fav's are as of right now are; Bone raiment, shaman mantle, keth rainment, raider plate and votive raiment. Lattice sandals look similar to fish nets :)

How to scale damage with lightning arrow vs lightning spear

I found a cadiros gambit quiver and wanted to try out lightning arrow on my Amazon, from the looks of things on poe ninja, the top players using cadiros on a an amazon have pretty similar skill trees to me. When I switched to the bow and skills for LA the damage is very low, around 10k My lightning spear in comparison is around 50k dps (this could even be better with better gear as I am level 91) Is it different specific gear that helps scale LA dps compared to LS? I can share my build when I get home if need be

How does the co-op feature work in Path of Exile 2

In Path of Exile 2, the co-op feature is designed to enhance the multiplayer experience, allowing players to team up in various ways. Here are the key aspects of how the co-op feature works:

Co-op Modes

Local Couch Co-op:

  • Players can enjoy local co-op on supported platforms, allowing two players to share the same screen using two controllers.
  • Players can choose to play on a single account or log in with two separate accounts, enabling flexibility in character management and progression

Online Multiplayer:

The game supports online co-op for up to six players, allowing friends to join each other's games regardless of their platform, thanks to cross-play functionality

what is the difference between Path of Exile 1 and Path of Exile 2

Damage conversion works in different way. In poe 1 you can have pure physical damage 2h axe, scale it with increase physical damage passive nodes, more physical damage support gems, and than convert all that damage into fire and scale it from increase fire/elemental damage passives. In poe 2 it will only scale from fire/elemental damage passives, and conversion will work only for base physical damage.
