What other skills do you suggest to use in early/middle stages of this build? Also, how do you go about items/skills that ask for huge numbers of dex/int?

I'm looking for a bit of advice.
I started using this guide for an alt in 1.3 and have a level 45 BM flame totem marauder. LNB says for 2.0 the build is optimally played as the witch, plus I feel the INT requirements for a lot of the optimal gear (I have a legacy Infernal Mantle in stash) will be easier for a witch to achieve. The only real differences between the 2.0 skill tree for marauder and witch are 5 nodes: Witch: +28% increased spell damage +9% increased cast speed Marauder: +46% increased armor +16 to maximum life +17% increased maximum life Although the witch clearly has better DPS nodes, I feel like 16 raw life and 17% increased maximum life is pretty powerful. (I play SC.) My question is this: Do y'all think I should reroll as a witch? (45 levels obviously won't take long.) Or should I just stick with the marauder? Thanks for any comments/suggestions. :) |

Hello, people =]
Need some help to improve my DPS without loosing my survivability. I'm playing in Tempest, level 84. My current tooltip dps is, almoust, 11k. I have: - 4,8k hp - 5,5k armour - Auras: clarity + arctic armour - ~900 mana - 370 free. Different than most people that I see, im using: - 2 fire gem staff; - Mind over Matter + Max mana nodes - Hrimnor's Resolve (+39% fire damage) I see that I already do a fast clear soloing or with more 2-3 members, but as I see here some people have some good damage without op gear. And, as I said, I'm always lookig to improve my character! OBS: Wouldn't like to play with Infernal Mantle, because the non existance of armour and I already use a +2 gem. More than that, with MoM would be very risky. My build: My itens:

Thank you all in advance! =D TeslaT Last edited by TTartari#1700 on Jul 27, 2015, 1:45:34 PM

" No, don't re-roll as a Witch. If you level high enough, in the end it wont matter if you start Marauder or Witch. I started as Marauder because I wanted more life for early levels rather then damage. Now I'm level 88 and it doesn't matter what class if I went Marauder or Witch, considering I picked up the cast speed/spell damage nodes on the Witch tree as if I went Witch from the beginning. You assertion is correct IMO, Marauder has a better start because you get extra mitigation in the form of life early on. Damage is way less of a concern with this build, things die plenty fast. Here's my current tree: https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwEAAuMEBwSzBg4HpQn2C2EOPBBYEMwRLRQgFHEZLho4Gj4fAiW8Jy8n7SkuKo0rtiycLKcyNDLRNtg6WDrYPC09_ESrRUdFnUbXSRtJskrEUEdTUlXGVw1XKVhjWOVZ81orXl1fP2aeaPJxhXIPfIN8uH31ggeCEIKbg1-DzIPbh2WMRozPj6aQVZo7muCiAKPyp5SsmK2Nr2yvt7c-wGbDE8QVxPbGrsbYz37R_dIh1HzVpti92WHZfNtP37Dfv-DD4XPr7uw47FXtPO8O8B_xbPGs8kH2SPau-JP-Cg== I've got 6k EHP, 16.5k damage per totem, capped resists, 30% phys reduction, and run with 210IIR. My gems are about to ding 20 tonight, pretty excited about that :D "You think logoutcore makes you better....." - ShaeG

Faster casting and projectile speed that important?

" The only real way to get better DPS out of flame totem, other than just stacking + gems and fire damage, for marauder, are three options: 1) Three Dragons + Crit 2) Righteous Fire 3) Stacking strength with Iron Will + Doon. Otherwise, not really much more you can do. I really like crit + three dragons since you almost always get shock to apply since your totems hit so rapidly. Mess with the best, die like the rest.

" Faster Projs is extremely important for Flame Totem, though you can get it on wands. I would always use fast proj gem though, for faster clearing. Mess with the best, die like the rest.

Heyo,

Because i use Magma Orb as Main DMG source. Should i go for the With notes first or down the Tree to more hp/armor, i am playing Tempest. I will upgrade my gear as soon as i hit around lvl 40. Any other Tips with gears, low lvl uniqs that increase DMG/HP/ARMOR??? mfg grogo |
