Thanks for the guide.

Any idea on the new bandit reward? Alira seems tempting for this build, right?


I picked the 2 skillpoints.

Aliras manaregen and allresists are worth the 2 points i would say, but over time not needed (manareg only with MoM and res are easily overcapped with rares we use).

at a leaguestart or ssf alira can be a good option tho

Currently Increased burning dmg gem grants a 40% more burning dmg multiplier (up to 59% at lvl 20) which takes to top spot of suppket gems in the beta for the build.

rf + spelltotem + burning dmg + elemental focus + inc aoe + rapid decay is the way to go in that order.

Feel free to use inc aoe in a 4link instead of elemental focus, I wont need it since i am testing around as a hierophant and just use the gloves for free 40% aoe instead of the gem. (i would respecc that node with a 5 link, but this is mainly ssf atm)

So the balance changes to RF aren't in the beta yet? The new support gems leaked in reddit are nothing for the build tho.

Would be nice if someone in the beta could test if the helm enchantments for RF work with totems already... that bug never gets fixed I believe.
What about the new efficacy gem support?

I'm level 28 now. I would like to spec into ancestral bond, however, my RF totems die very quickly in their own burning damage. Any way to fix this?

Sorry for the noobish question. Thanks

use a purity of elements and/or fire, depending on your current skilltree. With the life/resist nodes in totemic mastery + anchestral bonds cluster coupled with a purity of elements grants the totems 75 elemental resist (40 base) and they survive around 4 sec.

that one is slightly better than totem resists gem (5% more damage) and should work like rapid decay does.

well efficiency is from the list and should work (like rapid decay)

There are no direct balance changes regarding RF (the skillgem) so far.

testing a helm enchant will be tough on a beta without trading besides tradechat ;) atm its basically ssf

use purity of fire until you get the 2nd ascendancy tukohama for fire immune totems.

You're right, it has a higher multiplier to DoT than Minion and Totem Elemental Resistance Support and the quality bonus benefits our damage aswell.
For those who didnt see it, i got a Beta thread on the mainpage of the guide (scroll down to the bottom) which i will update over time to sum up changes related to the build, some videos and so on.

3.0 Beta Thread

Changes i've seen so far, still downloading the client




- higher increased burning damage on the skilltree. Holy Fire Cluster from 70% to 100% burning dmg. Breath of Flames from 35% fire/burning dmg to 80% fire/bruning dmg for 5 pts

- hierophant might be a choice with those buffs

- Mind over Matter now works with Dots as well

- life/mana nodes buffed in the witch area (might be useful in some variations)

- increased burning damage support gem now grants 40%-59% more burning damage instead of increased burning damage

- http://i.imgur.com/zT2dsFT.png The efficiency support will work with RFT and is slightly better than the totem resistance gem


Thats what i collected with you guys so far :)

Yes I mean when they activate the trade API, which they plan to do ;)

I think if one wants to go full damage with soul mantle, one can go

RF - Spell Totem (from Soul Mantle) - inc burning damage - rapid decay - elemental focus - inc aoe/conc and efficacy.
