[3.25] neoCrown's Int/Mana Hierophant Kinetic Bolt Totems - 7 Totems/90 million Guardian DPS

Path of Building link containing Budget Version, Endgame Version, Mageblood Version, Spell Suppression Version, Magic Find Version, Voices Version - https://pobb.in/Xzez7sTvJeDp




Is this still a viable POB for the leveling trees + gear set up? I'm a rather casual player with not a lot of time to play - this POB gives a great progression path.

Levelling tree and Budget version in the setup is still viable. Budget version is doing 7-8 million DPS in my updated 3.25 POB tree. For the Endgame setup, the difference would be to path to Point Blank and grab the Surveillance node in the tree.

https://pobb.in/MMXB2SkNDirn - this is the updated POB tree for 3.25 for the budget version.
Nice, thanks for the info!

Great, thanks! For the leveling set up here - is the ultimate goal to get to 92 to swap over to the budget version? In your vid, you mentioned using freezing pulse/ice spear, but the trees using rolling magma. Between the leveling midgame tree and budget, there is a big jump from 54-92. Would you recommend running something else till 92 to swap over?

Hello exiles,

Long time totem enjoyer, I’ve just started the league and had some lucky early drops. Playing hiero stormburst totems, level 58, got 1 div and 50c.

Stormbust looks strong enough, but I’m not a fan of the extra delay. This build looks super juicy though.

Do you think it is startable at such a low level with that budget? Or is it better if I wait until I am 90+ and respec?

More general, do some of you « leaguestart » this? If so, what do you play and how/when do you transition?

Thanks!

Every league I try to level with something new - this league it was Freezing Pulse/Ice Spear Totems - this is my POB starter for this league - https://pobb.in/L_tf7A9DSLWM. Any spells would work well but ice based spells in general are better due to the inherent defensive layer of freezing/chilling enemies. I farmed all my gear using Ice spear totems. I transitioned at level 92 but you can certainly transition earlier if all the gear is available. I was focused on getting my Kingsmarch town setup and farming gear so I respecced quite late. I would only transition to the Power Siphon setup once we have at least 6k mana, the 2 forbidden jewels, a lightning damage per intelligence wand, indigon/mind of the council, ivory tower, and prism guardian.

I stuck with ice spear totems from level 54-92. No big swaps, just small upgrades here and there as scaling mana scales both the spell totem version and power siphon version.

I listed some prices for the uniques and necessary items as I was replying to someone yesterday and it added up to ~ 2 divs (At current market prices). Certainly not very expensive to get going with the basic setup.

Given that you are still level 58, I would still level as a spell totem before transitioning to power siphon until all the gear is acquired. If you are not enjoying stormburst, you can try ice spear or freezing pulse. Both work almost the same way as power siphon with offscreening enemies and scale of projectile damage.
Hello neoCrown,
i can't find some pair of boots that have a abyssal socket. which pair of boots do you recommended in this case?
And wich wand do you recommended if i can't find some?

The boots I am currently running do not have any abyssal sockets as they are quite expensive. Mine has intelligence/mana/movement speed/maximum life/and resistances to cap out resistance.
I just finished the campaign and would like to slowly level up and transition into using the build. However, I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed by the skill tree and the different sets of items.I have around 50 div to spend

1) Could you take a moment to advise me on the order of skill tree pathing?
Should I prioritize getting cluster jewels, wand nodes, or maybe rushing to Iron Will?

2) What about items?
Which set should I use at this stage?

3) Is it also the right time to switch to the endgame gems?
I would like to start using Power Siphon.
