Yeahh, I used Anc Totems til 1st ascendancy and by then I had some int going so i went RF+Incinerate. It's been pretty good since then. Just make sure you have Purity and 2 health flasks. I've been playing it like Aila's old RF build so idk if it's particularly easy to play though haha

Just hit Blood Aqueducts so it's been smooth, but I do have a bit of an issue with Delirium. Too many explosions and some of the mobs are too tanky. Also found a cluster jewel with Fire Damage nodes and Fire Damage+DoT Passive. Honestly not tanky enough to experiment with it, but i'll let update you guys if i do.

Hey Nausta!

I'm glad it's going smoothly for you. Good advice! I'm looking forward to hearing what people do with their Delirium jewels.

yea, abit the same, the first two acts was hard/slow, after I got clarty and incinerate its going much better. the dmg is still alittle low, but not a total sleep fest, tho im worryed of how costly this will be, to get all that %life pr sec, as starter / first build.

I'm glad it's going better phaladina!

Don't worry about the min/maxing mods yet. I have only one cool mod on my chest. The rest are all as high life rolls as I could find, and resists. That's it. And content is a breeze. The build doesn't need it, but obviously it'd be nice to get. But it's nothing to worry about. This is made for SSF. So you'll be totally fine with just high life rolls and resists.

Hy, is this build all content ?
I'm very curious about it, but i want to give it a try without very specialising in one activity

Hey tartopoireau!

Yup! This build can do all content. BUT I never plan my builds around Hall of Grandmasters. I ignore that map when I make my builds. Its damage is good but not crazy fast. To make an RF build that doesn't require items means a good focus on survivability first. With the changes to the endgame and bosses that GGG has been doing, like every build, you need great offensive rolls on your items to have the damage you need to kill them at a decent speed. But after playing this build for 3.9, I've made the adjustments necessary to keep the survivability high and have the damage required as well.

What do you mean about specializing in one activity?

I'm currently struggling to do this as my league starter what skills should i be using i read over the thing and i didnt see any leveling abilitys .-. unless im just blind! which is possible...

p.s i am SSF :)

Hey itisme4!

You're not blind. I don't really have a levelling section. I'll be adding one, but not an extensive one. If you're SSF, I'd go with Holy Flame Totem and any fire skill you can. If a fire spell drops, stick with that for sure because spells always Hit. Molten Strike is good but we don't have the accuracy to keep it going for too long. Ground Slam and Sunder are good AoE skills if you don't like Holy Flame Totem.

Does that help? What are you using now?

Very good build. I had mistakenly thought at first that inexorable would be shit for end charge sustain but I barely ever run out of charges. I underestimated just how many hits you take. Only lv31 currently but the build feels very good to play already. Levelling with flame totem + scorching ray. Just wondering why does the build use incinerate over SR? I'd think SR's fire res reduction would help RF?
I suspect it might have to do with wave of conviction's reduction? Does it not stack with SRs?

Hey Gielnik!

Thanks for your kind words! I'm glad you like it.

Ya, I like Inexorable. Lots goes on. Many disagree at first, but it has power for sure.

That's awesome that the build feels so good at 31 already. Good for you!

I use Incinerate over Scorching Ray because of the AoE. SR is too narrow for me and I have to aim it too much and it exhausts me (concussion stuff). I can't aim when I play PC and I like to make sure that my guides can be played (by me) on either PC or console. With Wave of Conviction, you right, SR doesn't have much value. Exposures don't stack with Exposures. Only the strongest one prevails. That strongest Exposure DOES stack with negative resists though (like flammability). BUT! If aiming isn't an issue for you, which it isn't for many, consider the following:

- Select Elemental Equilibrium on the Passive Tree.

- Then use the following gems:
- 5/6L: Current RF links
- SR-Inspiration-Infused Chan.-Burn Dam.
- CwDT1-Ball Lightn.4-CoH-Flammability
- CwDT-Stone Golem-Molten Shell-Combustion
- Purity of Fire-Malevolence

That would almost double the damage of the build.

Good observation and suggestion! You know...maybe I'll ignore SR except on boss battles when I'm on PC...hmmmm...we'll see.

Thanks for the post!

Hi, thanks for the guide!

The build is fun to level so far, but are there any uniques you would recommend?

i always wanted to play a RF Build but i was always afraid of leveling trough story with a boring skill and then switching to rf just to figure out it doesent work. But this Leage ill try it , with your Build!
Could you give any further details on when to switch to RF, ill do everything you say in the "how to use rf earlier" section , but im still a bit afraid, so maybe if you could give infos like "when you have rise of the phoenix (which is like 1 alch this league) you can switch to rf then, or use that trait, blabla you know what i mean :D

anyways , thanks for your guide, ill try rf the first time now.

Edit: oh ill use holy flame totem and incinerate for leveling till lvl 55ish ? also what supports should i use on those skills while leveling (for incinerate i gues same setup as written in your guide?)
