Exploding Totem Pathfinder (Need help with more defensive layers)
So I know there's a ton of variations going around with this build, I've included my POB, my gear is kinda all over the place. The reason I'm running rampage belt is I am still clearing some white/yellow maps for atlas points.
For my current atlas strat, I am running stream of conq, with wandering path, I know it sounds crazy but I cant afford 5 ways so my mentality has been to run blank T16s or magic rolled with pack size, more pack size = more mobs, more mobs = more xp/ph and I'm trying to level to get more passives to use. My tree needs some work, I need advice on switching some of my damage out for defense as I am getting 1 shot in some yellow maps (some of this is just me blindly whirling blades-ing into a pack of mobs. Here is my POB. If anyone has discord, or could PM me in game and help me out, I'd appreciate it, feel free to PM me too if youd like to chat on discord. So far I've enjoyed the league, I'm still in a progression stage, not at a farming stage quite yet. Thanks for your time. - King Exo POB

Yeah, it worth every divine. Its like day and night.

Just tested without Progenesis, and its also fine, Ill have to change the tier of priorites, and its Bloodnotch + Immutable Force + ES mastery. Also need 50%+ recoup life. Beware that progenesis this take this to a whole new level.

A buddy loaned me prog and I got both jewels, I have seen a significant difference. a one shot here or there but its definately notictable. I even did eater of worlds non uber, it took some time and 2 portals, I feel like my damage isnt enough. I see people playing this build with crap gear 1 shotting ubers and I have 600% between both my claws 300% each, my gems are 20/20, so idk.
Thinking of rolling an alt to take a break from this character for a day or two, one thing shes not good for is farming legions, I'd like to make a legion farmer. Ice shot deadeye I guess, I dont like this ranger meta, I need something new. Thanks for the replies though! ☼ Unlock Sandwraith Map mod Tracker Thread #3461595

Do yourself a favor and play something else with your PF. I played the PF Poison Explode Totem build for a while. Killed Sirus, all the Guards, all the Enforcers, Maven's The Formed, some tough Curcible Forge bosses, BUT in the end, the defense layers are sub-par overall and the game play is actually terrible imo. You will die a lot. Some T16 map bosses that phase will even kill you.
Sure killing Baron instantly for example, was fun the first time, but the game style to get there is poor. Can't really do Legions, can't do Breach Bosses at the high level, etc. Another words, sure if you are boss mechanic expert you can make Explode Totem PF work, but for most of us -- it just lacks overall. It does work decent in Delve, as the tunnel effect of the monsters coming at you forces them into traps/totems exploding. But even then you risk easy death the deeper you go as you run around like a chicken with no head in this small space hoping your traps go off soon! The Div Orb investment to make it have some D, is high. And the game play remains poor to me. You become so reliant on either a Life Flask or the whole complexity of Pet Blood & Prog Flask, no thanks. |
