[3.17] Wallach's Hierophant Freezing Pulse Totems (No Further Updates)
" Soul Mantle unique chest support socketed gem with level 20 spell totem | |
" For the Enslaver specifically, you're probably best off just rolling a second utility flask that has burning removal. If you want a more general solution, you can always just roll your Quicksilver flask to cover it instead of getting the bonus movespeed from the "Adrenaline" suffix. | |
Oh man, can't make my mind up between this and a ED/Cont CI Trickster as a starter build for the next league!
Anyone anyone want to convince me this will be the better of the two builds for the next league? | |
" I mean, ED is a pretty great league starter. If I had any concerns about it this league, it would be the health scaling of Delirium mobs, which during Baeclast seems to be the biggest factor of difficulty scaling. Not sure how Delirium bosses would go. For those currently doing planning for 3.10, this is my current plan for the level 95 skill tree with cluster jewel considerations (level 95): https://pastebin.com/v7A0xUhP I think the main plan will be to go directly from large -> small clusters, getting damage from large and life from small. If we can't get any decent life islands in small cluster jewels, we'll probably have to pick up Melding instead, but it shouldn't be hard for a cluster jewel to beat Melding. | |
" It just boils down to personal preference. I like both, I've played this FP totem build the last 3 leagues as a league starter and don't regret it one bit. I've also made the ED/Cont Trickster, and a Bane Occultist. Either of those 3 builds will be good for this league with possibly the ED/Cont Trickster being the frontrunner because of clear speed and of course minimal investment. I'm still up in the air as to what I will do on league start, but I'll definitely be doing another FP totem Heiro this league, it's such a great build. | |
Man... I just tried a simple test run till act 3, and it was a nightmare to kill bosses lol It takes so long ;/
When i got to act 3 i was using: * Frost Bomb + Onslaught + Arcane Surge * Holy Flame Totem + Infused Channeling + Added Fire Dmg * Freezing Pulse + Controlled Destruction + Added Lightning Dmg * Herald of Ice + Flame Dash It took quite a while to get a RRB item for the holy flame too ;/ Kinda scared of league starting with this... ;x | |
I will decide on the league starter based on the nodes on the new jewels and the patch notes.
Good that totem getting life buff :) | |
"If mines don't get completely dumpstered, level with them. The secret? Ancestral Bond makes your spells deal 0 damage but mines don't count as "your spells" only separate entity so you can still deal damage with them and spec into extra totem. Until you get second totem and preferably 3rd it's very slow to kill anything with totem alone. P.S. To get RRB best case is use something like armor+ES gloves, well I prefer gloves or helmet for my target 3/4 link as boots I might wanna use highest movespeed even if crap sockets. Also I saw some trick on Zizaran's stream for spell based levelling, you can make some lvl 1 mules and check vendor in town for wands with +1 to cold / fire / lightning spells and then use any spell that wand buffs. The spell does not need to be socketed in the wand. Last edited by Viktranka on Mar 9, 2020, 1:33:35 PM

" Thats... crazy... lol Ty for the tip ;p I guess i will try to go with Tytykiller's (i guess he probably didn't 'create' it, but i saw he using it on a couple of occasions, so...) strategy, using Frost Bomb, Orb of Storms and Stormblast mine... ;/ | |
" Generally the earliest you'd want to swap to totems is after Cruel Lab,then they start to become good. |
