[3.5] Soul Mantle Dark Pact Totems - League Starter - All Content
" Just follow the leveling guide and buy the uniques as you can afford them (they're very cheap). You can also level with Sunder, but you'll need to skill into it if you plan to use it post act 3. Builds and Guides:

" you dont need twink gear to levelup as totems lol the only reason we use soul mantle + kika is for the curse thingy. you can use a rare chest + spell totem and rare rings just as well. you will have to make do with 2 totems tho. | |
" The leveling uniques are NOT cheap when you need them at league start. The exact opposite in fact. It is a bit slow going with Scion since she doesn't really have access to damage nodes until you get out of the center quite a bit. Sunder into warchief totems until you get your uniques is a good idea. Waggle recommended it in his starter build. I think going through sentinel to the phys dual wield and attack speed clusters then RT/totemic mastery/ancestral bond is the move. Farm up for kikazaru/soul mantle and you are golden. Could always try some kind of SRS start since you get duration nodes quickly but would be a larger respec to totems once you acquired the necessary uniques.

" I purposely chose cheap items, not tabula etc... From my experience they'll be a bit pricey on the first day, but everything except Hidden Potential will cost 1 alc after 24h.

HI
First of all - thank you for great guide :) Now my question is - on your videos i can't see how Wither is being applied and i see it's in your helm without spell totem support. On your videos you are not channeling it neither u have "hierophant" asc. to support helm skills with totem. Can somebody explain how Wither is being used in this build ? is there some secret that it doesn't have to be channeled by plaayer ? | |
" Spell totem is sold by Nessa in act 1, you need to link it to a skill or else it won't work. If you have a Soul Mantle you won't need the gem. " There's no secret, I am channeling Wither myself. Builds and Guides:

I was a bit hesitant to run this build because of the Dark Pact nerf, but just wow, leveling has been so smooth. The damage is off the chart, Izaro died within seconds of spawning on both normal and cruel lab.
Thank you very much for the guide! By the way, I think you should reconsider Despair. It has been doing really well for me, especially since some of the Abyss bosses have decent amount of hp. I am running Clarity + Blasphemy Temporal Chain for mana reserve, and then running faster cast, wither, arcane surge, despair link. That combination works great defensively and feels much smoother for me for totem dump and run playstyle. Last edited by tavi2530 on Dec 9, 2017, 5:02:09 PM

So, would any of the new belts + abyssal jewel combos be BiS?
