It's not an Attack. Look a few posts above your's to see all the keywords of FT.
You're looking for Iron Will to make use of strength.

I wouldn't recommend it. Flame totem has such a low base critical chance you will never get good crit for how much you will have to invest. Just pump spell and fire damage.

this may have been answered but how does burning dmg correlate to flame totem dmg?
Look at Flame Totem's description. See how it does not mention Fire Damage over Time nor Burning Damage.
I just stumbled upon something that I can't help but think might be unintended.
That is on kill effects not applying to the player when foes are killed by the Totem.
From my experience with The Dark Seer unique, neither Totems nor Minions trigger it's on kill effects, quite possible because they have neither mana nor energy shield. (naturally anyhow)

It's meant to give you +1 energy shield and mana per level. And yet it doesn't if your running totems or minions. Is this intentional? Or just a quirk of coding.

Because it really kills on kill effects as a way to sustain yourself, giving you almost no options outside of Clarity and/or Eldritch Battery for mana gain. While also rending life gain and energy shield gain on kill equally worthless.

It pretty much single handedly destroyed the build I was going for. (Flame Totem + Raging Spirits)
I just don't have the sustainability since on kill effects simply don't work.

It's intentional. The Totem gets the kill, not you. You have the Dark Seer equipped, the Totem does not.
what is everyones dps at level 80-90?
im sitting around 3100dps
my 6 link atm is flame totem - GMP - added chaos - bloodmagic - item rarity - faster casting
using infernal mantle as chest piece

I picked all the spell damage nodes but for some reason getting 8% totem damage is better than 12% fire spell damage??

should i pick all totem damage nodes instead?
