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

At about 3.5m shaper DPS per totem with Vaal RF & 8 Curses on. Will probably continue to min-max until I reach 3m dps per totem, get more life and reach at least level 98.

A few more tips:
+1 frenzy charge on amulet is a bench craft worth looking at in POB

Hands of the High Templar are cool to use for dual curse setup with woke curse on hit level 5 (look for +2 curse gems, cast speed, spell crit, etc)

+1 to socketed gems is about 3% better dps than +2 to projectile gems as long as you're using empower level 4. Craft your own corrupted chest, it's way cheaper than buying one. Get cheap soul mantles, vaal them until you get your desired corruption then craft the sockets onto it. It's a pain but probably 10+ exalts cheaper.

Don't kill yourself getting more proj speed once you get the helm enchant. It's not worth it.


This build, with ridiculous investment, can hit probably close to 4m dps per totem. However, that is overkill and will likely cost a couple hundred exalts. I killed Sirius 8 before I switched to Atziri's Reflection with only 1 portal used so it's perfectly fine (but a bit slower) without much thrown at it.

Overall, a great build, thanks Wallach!

POB for reference: https://pastebin.com/i1j4J8iM

(had to fake militant faith jewel with a 98% increased elemental damage jewel and modify the ammu to +2 to cold spell skill gems for POB to recognise the items properly, manually add the second curse since POB doesn't recognise +1 to curses from awakened curse on hit level 5).

I've always been curious about this. Wouldn't that potentially be ultra expensive if you can't link it easily?

you will need 1850 vaal orbs, 1500 fusings, 350 jewelers and however many chromes (and a vaal orb for each) you need to get your necessary colours. Because it's corrupted, the 6 sockets and 6 links are fixed price since you can only use the crafting bench.

This gave me an idea. My gloves are pretty cheap and easy to get, so I'll start to throw them into Alva's altar and hope for couple nice implicits.

My mistake, I keep forgetting that you would have to use the bench to link and socket it.

Can't tell unless you socket it to see what it gives.

Using a divine orb changes only the number which, in turn, changes what nodes get influenced and how.

I divined mine until it didn't convert anything important. :)
