That's the one, 41 skills in bow tree and the rest in whatever you want. The build is finished by lvl 50 where you can put the 20 to Freezing Arrow though it's probably easier to lvl up as hybrid. (trade/ice-t1467501.html)
Matriarchal > Grand Matron thanks to reachable 75 IAS breakpoint.
Ice bow is amazing love that aura and Frost Nova! I use FA + straffle for leech and make those Nova procs. Also you get a ton of gold. In my opinion there is a lot of advantages in this build. You can also have 200+ mf. Main worst point of ama being FCR
I really enjoy my Frozen Orb / Nova sorc with points into Vitality instead of Energy and Infinity on the merc. This combines my favorite offensive sorc skill with Nova for when Orb doesn't cut it. The build is fast and risky enough to make it fun.
Hybrid frostmaiden physical bowa is a close second followed by Whirlwind trapsin and my vanquisher.

never tried this till i read you post... ww speed increases when frenzied, but the lcs shows no damage increase
is this normal?
I don’t think the frenzied Whirlwind has any higher %damage added to it, it only increases the speed of ww movement/ias which would likely lower your dps assuming you are already maxed on ww attack speed. However, I’ve found situations in which the tactic increases dps.
Higher speed whirlwinds is practical and higher dps when fighting weaker enemies such as Fallen who often flee and are usually dead within a single 4 frame rate segment of a ww attack. In these circumstances it makes sense to cover wide Ground quickly verses focus damage in a smaller range. I also think it is a useful tactic when using Grim Ward which creates a similar situation as when fighting Fallen. Your damage goes wayyy up and enemies run from you. I’ve noticed, when feeling masochistic and running cows, significantly faster clear speeds using Grim Ward/frenzied ww. It’s still slow, but item find in cows can be highly profitable. Though just following around a javazon is much quicker.
In the post, I mostly mention the Frenzy ww bc that was part of the glee of reaching that point with a barb, the mobility and ferocity of it all is loads of fun.
In any case, I’d encourage any ww barb to put a point into Frenzy. It has great utility, particularly when you are decrepd or holy freezd. The eias from Frenzy is enough to get your dps up and grant more mobility aka More dam and survivability.
