Hi.

[springofsummer]

Hello, i'm looking to join this server possibly when i get back from vacation.

I'm very used to playing mages and maybe will play an ice mage on this server.

I would appreciate it if anyone could maybe perhaps give me some good builds for an ice mage and maybe even a lore-friendly guild to join for an ice mage?

Please and thank you.

Welcome!

A cursory search of the Tips & Tricks Character Building forum uncovered quite a few of these suggestions:

Frost Mage

Frost Mage 2

The key to a good frost mage is synergy with metamagic from Arcane Scholar & Master of Elements from Archmage can also help you a great deal but is not essential due to the fact frost mages ignore all forms of cold resistance/immunity once they reach level 10. Frost Mage + Arcane Trickster is also a possibility, given that some of a Frost Mage's core spells are ranged touch attacks that will be Empowered/Maximised Ice Darts & (Lesser) Orb of Cold & Polar Ray.

As for guilds? The Temple of Auril has just had a recent increase in activity. You will find some camaraderie there.

Have fun!

You could be a renegade Uthgardt that has turned their back on their people's aversion to magic and has been exiled to the south.
Or perhaps a Rashemi witch, the spirits told you to go west for a giggle.
Auril worshippers always makes sense, although outside of faction RP I don't see much reason why they would be on the Sword Coast. Probably your best option though, since they have an actual player faction.
