EPIKpm's teleporting Templar, Oro's Sacrifice build, with AA+MoM+EB and Searing Bond (Updated!)

Ever since I first saw Oro's Sacrifice, I have wanted to make a build around it. Make it viable and defy the reputation it has gained as "Oro's Suckrifice".

Have u ever wanted to move like a blur and destroy your enemies before they even know what hit them? Teleporting across the battlefield with a laser beam of fire shredding all you touch and pass? This build makes it possible and the best part is, no pants required!

The Basic gameplay is you walk up to a pack of enemies, drop a Searing Bond totem, and use your Flicker strike + melee splash setup to decimate them. After u clear out the easy mobs you can lock on to rare mobs or bosses with your single target Flicker setup + life leech to quickly and safely destroy them. If your Searing bond totem gets out of range or is destroyed, simply place another.

This has not been tested in HC, only rampage

This is my first build guide so I am still learning and will continue to be updating and expanding it as time goes on. Plz be patient with me :)

Its a really sweet build EPIK has got going. I've been running a lot of maps with him, and it's hilarious to see how his Searing Bond seems to be lazer gunnin' everything down, while it's impossibly to focus on his character since it is just all over the place:)

Hi can u post a video? This build looks pretty cool and I wanted to see it in action before trying. Thanks

Hey there, and yes I intend on posting a video soon :) Thanks for the interest, and if u have any questions, feel free to ask.

First thing i want to say, fix your spoiler buttons XDDD!!. Seriously though, the build looks really solid. Could you please write in the description the order in which you choose the passives for the skill tree? For example, give us a tree at end of Normal, Cruel, Merciless, and then the final full tree? Would really help out a lot of people who want to try the build :).

Hi, and thanks for the feedback. I've attempted many times to fix the spoiler buttons but sadly I get the same result. Spoilers work fine in other thread but always break in this one for whatever reason. I will gladly provide a description of leveling progression :) Thanks for the interest!

hehe, got the spoilers working, I needed to put the passive skill tree link into a spoiler before I could spoiler anything else lol.

The use of Searing Bond with Flicker Strike is very creative.

Have you thought about using Mokou's Embrace (1 or 2) and/or Cloak of Flame? Cloak of Flame is quite a strong defensive item against Physical damage. And Mokou's seems like it would be an ideal DPS ring for this build.

Hi there, and thanks for the input, some interesting suggestions u have there. I have thought about Mokou's Embrace but I needed rings with cold/lightning resits (because im running purity of fire), and need Life and Dexterity (getting dexterity on my two rings freed up 6 skills points). With that in mind, I didn't think the trade-off was worth it to equip Mokou's instead.

The chest Cloak of Flame is interesting and I have not considered it because it would remove my main source of defence with this build, Cloak of Defiance. Building around Defiance gives me two health pools and allows me to run max level Arctic Armor, which was kinda the inspiration for this build because the challenge with Oro's Sacrifice, is surviving long enough to use it.
