[No longer updated] Pizza Sticks: Flameblast Totem Hierophant

I didn't have EB and i'm currently experimenting with TF shield, it's not good, my skills use my life and i"m less tanky than before.
How many cast speed modifier ideal for this build?
If using Tukohama's does it make sense to spec out of Mind over Matter and not travel up to Eldritch Battery and ignore that as well? Seems like just moving my 500ish ES over to the mana side makes no sense.
...brings back fond D2 LoD memories...
Decided to switch over to CI from Life and have a couple of questions.

- For my Jewels on the passive tree, any suggestions? OP mentioned cast speed but I wondering if there is something more specific I should focus on?

- Also, I'm realizing that my Flask need to be changed now. Any advice on which ones I should look at (would love some visual examples).

Thanks.
I've got some this setup, cast speed @gear, jewels are about dmg.

Totem dmg + fire dmg + cast speed jewels x3

flasks - quicksilver will be changed for something to protect from fire/burning
I don't understand how you survive without Vaal Discipline?

It's pretty much invincibility for a short time, and without leech don't you think it's pretty much mandatory?

Any time your ES hits ~5k, pop Vaal Discipline and viola, you're invincible.

I know this is a softcore build, but dying still hurts a lot, and without an oh shit button, it seems reckless/careless and seemingly leads to a lot of exp lost.
I used to put my characters down here.

The list became so long, and I've had to DELETE over 50 characters to make room for others, that I've stopped updating it.

#firstworldproblems give me character slots free or WAY cheaper GGG ;(

Pious path is defensively superior, but it can be a clunky mechanic. You only benefit while standing on CG, which means you have to pop flasks constantly or get repeatedly hit to benefit. Once you WB away, which you do almost constantly in this build, you lose all the buffs.
I just tried chayula's breachstone again. I stayed ahead of the opening breach and cast totems backwards. The time stayed around ~10 seconds during the run and i ended it at like 15sec. The boss was easy.

Glad i didn't fail a 2nd time.

Hi guys :)

Great build! just one lame question. Is it ok to put 2 totems in same place? or it wont give 2x dmg? i used to play righteus fire and i remember that those totem dmg is not overlap for 2 totems.

Thx!
