The Damage Numbers
Here are the kind of numbers you can expect your Holy Freeze zealot to achieve. I added this so people can see the base numbers they'll get as well as the importance of +skills if possible.
20 Holy Freeze: 185 - 190
+ 20 Resist Cold: 740 - 760
+ 20 Salvation: 998 - 1025
But now, to show the importance of a few +skills for this build, lets assume this quite attainable setup - many of these can just be magics! +2 on weapon, +1 Lore helm, +1 shield, +1 offensive aura amulet. Remember synergy skills don't count above 20!
25 Holy Freeze: 275 - 280
+ 20 Resist Cold: 1100 - 1120
+ 20 Salvation: 1485 - 1511
Now that sure is a nice amount of cold damage to add PER HIT of a Zeal! But could we go higher? What if we had a nice, yet fairly attainable, "elite" setup? +3 Heavens Light, +2 rare circlet, +2 rare shield, +2 rare amulet, +1 Guardian Angel and a +1 unique belt with battle command +1 from the barb in your party! I'm not going to consider 2 SOJs (unpractical for this build) or a +3 amulet (only spawns on magic). Get ready...
32 Holy Freeze: 435 - 440
+ 20 Resist Cold: 1740 - 1760
+ 20 Salvation: 2348 - 2375
(with 469 - 475 periodic aura damage and 57% slow!)
Yes... it can get that sick. Plus, just for my own sick satisfaction, here are the numbers if you managed to get, say, 6 Offensive Aura grand charms to bring the total up to level 38...
38 Holy Freeze: 585 - 590
+ 20 Resist Cold: 2340 - 2360
+ 20 Salvation: 3158 - 3185
(with 631 - 637 periodic aura damage and 58% slow!)
