Infiltrator

Inquisitor + Nightblade

A dual wield Cold ranged build with a strong focus on maximizing every skill that provides Cold damage. The primary damage source is Chilling Rounds, which is fully maxed in this setup. This build excels at reducing enemy Cold resistances and capitalizing on that by dealing massive Cold damage in return. It is also very durable, with multiple healing options alongside standard potions.

Any skill that provides Cold damage or reduces Cold resistance is a priority. Chilling Rounds plays a major role in overall damage output and will reach its maximum effectiveness with the selected gear. While there is no strict starting class, beginning with Inquisitor is recommended to progress the Mastery Bar to rank 50 and unlock dual wielding pistols early. Once your second class is unlocked, begin investing points into it to further enhance total damage.

This build includes three healing abilities, which also provide additional bonuses at higher levels: Word of Renewal, Pneumatic Burst, and Inquisitor Seal. Amarasta’s Blade Burst is another powerful source of burst damage. The build performs very well in solo play and also offers strong damage support in group settings.

While there is no strict starting class, choosing Inquisitor allows you to dual wield as early as possible. Word of Renewal will serve as your secondary healing ability. Chilling Rounds would normally be maxed at 10, but with the gear used in this build, only 7 points are needed to reach the hard cap.

Inquisitor Seal can be adjusted based on your playstyle, with only a few points needed to provide additional health regeneration and damage. Aura of Censure is selected for its increase to elemental damage and its ability to reduce enemy resistances. Rune of Hagarrad requires minimal investment but gains significant value through gear bonuses, making it a strong option to use while kiting or during boss fights for additional damage.

If you want to focus on Cold damage as early as possible, start with the Nightblade class. Night’s Chill is a powerful debuff that reduces enemy Cold resistance while also dealing Cold damage. Amarasta’s Blade Burst will serve as your right mouse button ability, offering strong burst Cold damage. Pneumatic Burst provides additional healing to improve survivability, while later skills in the tree further enhance your overall damage. A few passive abilities also contribute to strengthening the build and increasing damage output.
