Act 1 Gems
Rolling Magma - Elemental Proliferation - Arcane Surge
Flame Wall
Holy Flame Totem
Shield Charge - Momentum
Flame Dash
Final Thoughts:
This is my fastest runs so far despite having a bad Wand/Sceptre. However, Wintertide isn't very strong before you have your Golems at 34. So I would recommend using Cold Snap early on more and adding Creeping Frost to your setup. After 34 (Golems) Wintertide Brand had decent damage with pretty good uptime.
This build is very squishy against Physical Attacks. I'd reckon that 80% of my deaths in Maps were due to Physical Attack Damage. If I had pushed this character past Exarch & Eater I would have gone definitely ES/EV gear to get Evade Chance higher than 60%. For ES Sustain I would recommend Ghost Shrouds and one ES Spell Leech node.
Overall, fairly fast in a Day 1 Scenario but I doubt Wintertide will scale particularly well into T17s.

🛑After the Snipers Mark nerf do not get 40% projectile speed anymore once you have 4 projectiles. You will want 20% in total. Either drop Ballistics or get 2x 10% reduced Projectile Speed nodes.🛑

Only one hit is shown. Spectral Throw will hit multiple times per attack (not shotgun, 225ms hit timer).
Act 1 Regex

*Spectral Throw Specific Advice*
I recommend positioning opponents about 3/4 of the maximum distance that your ST can travel to maximise damage. If possible try to put bosses next to walls/obstacles so ST can bounce off them and return faster. Also dont use Snipers Mark before you have at least 2 Projectiles.
*Support Gems*
Act 1 - Spectral Throw + Chance to Bleed + Added Cold Damage.
Act 2 - Spectral Throw + Added Cold Damage + Elemental Damage with Attacks/Trinity.
Once you go for Crit (early maps) replace Added Cold Damage with Nightblade Support.
*Aura Setup*
Act 2 - War Banner + Herald of Ice
Act 3 - Anger + Herald of Ice or War Banner
Once you have Charisma allocated you can go for Grace & Anger or Anger & Wrath
*Gear Progression*
You want to do essences in campaign and use them on your claws just in case if you get unlucky identifying claws and dont find anything useful.
Flat Damage craft on jewelery helps a lot with getting more damage but they cost 4 Transmutes. Once you are in maps you will want a decent +300 eDPS claw otherwise progressing into red maps will be hard. You also switch from Dual-Wielding to Claw and Shield. Going for essences early is definitely a good option. Anguish, Torment and Suffering will give flat damage for jewelry. Hatred, Anger and Wrath will provide flat damage for your claw.

Path of Exile 2 Sorceress Chronomancer Leveling Build Guide
*Support Gems*
Frost Bomb - Magnified Effect - Execute
Frostbolt - Unleash - Controlled Destruction (before Cold Snap)
Frostbolt - Scattershot - Arcane Tempo (after Cold Snap)
Cold Snap - Unleash - Controlled Destruction
Cold Snap is used on top of Frostbolt to explode the projectiles. If you do want to do this you can continue with the above mentioned Frostbolt setup.
Hypothermia - Heightened Curse - Persistence
After you get Frost Wall you use Frost Walls and Ice Nova to clear. Ice Nova is used to explode Frost Walls which will deal Cold Damage upon being destroyed. I also use Frost Bomb to destroy Frost Walls. Ideally, you have the Shattered Crystal Notable on the tree once you start using Frost Walls.
Frost Wall - Spell Cascade - Magnified Effect - Icicle (Tier 2)
You can swap Icicle with a damage support against bosses.
Ice Nova - Unleash - Controlled Destruction - Arcane Tempo/Inspiration
Frost Bomb - Considered Casting - Ingenuity - Execute
Skill Gem Upgrade Order is:
Cold Snap - Frost Bomb - Frostbolt.
After you have Frost Walls
Frost Walls - Ice Nova - Frostbomb
*Spirit Gems*
Arctic Armour
After the second spirit quest you can go for
Cast on Freeze - Comet - Impetus
I had a different setup because I reached 41 (Comet requirement) at the end of this video.
*Gear Progression*
Look for +Levels to Spell Skills Gem at the Vendor. +Levels to Gems will provide flat damage. %increased Damage is important too but I would prioritise additional Levels to Gems over that. You can also get +Levels to Spell Skills on Shields (Focus), Wands and Amulet in the Normal Campaign.
Additional Gem Levels will increase the base Mana Cost significantly. You might have to use Inspiration as a Support Gem. Make sure to upgrade your Mana Flask regularly so that isnt necessary. Also, check the vendor for Movement Speed Suffix on Boots.
*Resistances*
For Act 1 you want Cold Resistance. In Act 2 you want Lightning Resistance for the final Act 2 Boss. If you do the Elemental Offering (Act 2, Buried Shrines) you can choose a Topaz/Ruby/Sapphire Ring. Vendors can also sell Resistance Rings. If you do not have enough Resistance Rings I would consider gambling for one at the Vendor (Risu at Act 2, Alva at Act 3) if you have sufficient Gold. The Act 3 Boss will cause all 3 Elemental Damage types. You can socket Glacial/Desert/Storm to get 12% Cold/Fire/Lightning Resistance.

First pathing route is Exploit the Elements. Then Roil, Endless Blizzards, Shattered Crystal.
Then you can go Climate Change and Overexposure or if you want more AoE you start pathing towards Reverbation.
