I agree, and I played snap/vortex this league.

You'll be straped for skill points with all the good stuff you can get on tree with cluster jewels and basic nodes (and I got to lvl 97).

With snap/vortex you don't have to invest into brand/cast speed nodes.

I'm assuming vortex cold snap is occultist, is it a decent starter? I've heard the clear speed is ass though

yes occultist
it doesnt full screen and a half clear like ice shot or some shit but its one of the strongest starters ive ever done it requires nothing to get to red tier maps you can walk into red tier maps with a 5 link and shit gear and still crush everything
the clear is just fine especialy for indoor maps it doesnt do as well on outdoor but it decimates toxic sewers and maps like that the damage is great early on with very small investment
tho i dont subscribe to the shavs version i hate doing that crap
i went full HP max block glancing blows 5% life gain on block with divine flesh and triple curse and it can do everything deathless with ease
