[3.17] Wallach's Hierophant Freezing Pulse Totems (No Further Updates)

Maybe I missed it - but i didn't see suggested rolls on an abyss jewel for stygian vises.

EDIT: googling suggested life and onslaught for 4 secs. I found one cheap with global crit as well

Great build, I'm loving it so far. One question, what triggers the second totem each time you cast Freezing Pulse?

That's from the Ritual of Awakening ascendancy node for Hierophant. One of the effects is "Skills that would Summon a Totem Summon two Totems instead", so you summon two totems per use.

Thanks for build - i've tried totems twice before (Heiro GC and Chief Holy Flame) and kinda of deleted them in mid maps. This one I got to same point and was reasonably happy to keep playing it.

Right on, glad you enjoy it.

For you (or anyone else interested in commenting), is there anything you felt was a bit missing from the guide? It's coming up on that time of the year to do some larger updates with 3.13, so it would be good to get some more recent feedback.

At the moment I am planning on adding a section for some general gear priority guidance, and if I have time a video accompaniment for each act in the leveling guide. Maybe some header images to separate the sections just for readability.

Not from me. Found it well organized and accessible as a 2 year player. It may not be a smexy looking guide with lots of embedded images and cool headers, but very few pull off both smexy and accessible.

How about a Pro's and Con's list? Like for example, I have not tried this build yet but I am looking for a good boss starter build for the new league that could possibly get me to farming Uber Elder/Shaper very quickly on league start but I am not sure how this build does with bosses and stuff like that early in a league.

This will be my first Totem Build and I'm thinkging the same. I would love a Pros/Cons or something like Doable/Not Doable Content.

I did browse through the vids and saw the deathless Simulacrum clearing and some stuff. But i really could not see, at what Budget we will be able to do all those Things :)
(Btw. how hard is Delving and in particular AUL with this build?)

Thanks anyway for your detailed guide and the work u did organizing and explaining everything so thoroughly. <3

has anyone thought of trying divergent vitality with clarity for really good regen of both health and mana?

i mean theres only so many skill gem slots so not sure if this would wreck things. im a pretty laid back player so regen helps me a lot from not dying.

you gain 20% damage on full life but lose clear mind obviously however it would also free up a jewel slot.

i swapped in both to see what i would lose and it was about 10k dps (standing in town) thats not real dps but still i went from 198-188 and gained a ton of health and mana regen. i didnt swap in any jewel so essentially i had a free slot.

just curious , i know its all about damage but that regen might outweigh the small loss in dps. and the right jewel could have more health and damage , again i havent checked all the possibilities , nor have i checked if theres a divergent or anom clarity.

Well RIP hierophant ascendency, the change to Ritual of awakening is brutal for mapping
