[2.1] Berserking Reverse SWT Searing Bonder || The original Searing Bond Atziri killer

Hi, I'm leveling towards this build atm, just got into cruel using dual flame totems. I'm spending my points in the dark right now, because your passive tree links use poedb, which is down. Could you post them (or at least the final build) as links to another website?

Just check my tree below. It uses his tree to 95%. I'm currently level 87 and have taken three nodes differently from his tree. I wanted more jewel utilization and needed to complement some resistances, so I picked 3 nodes to the south of the Scion starting position, instead of some life nodes to the bottom left of the tree. Since I have 900 ES, I felt I could make that sacrifice and still have enough HP. It's working well so far.

This build looks fun, was getting ready to give it a go, but noticed the build progressions are not working due to the site being down.

Are they going to be posted any time soon.

1-50 pts then 50-85 would be sufficient I believe.

I've gone through cruel piety, dominus and most of act 4 now with my freshly equipped soul mantle. I'm surprised how quick this build kills stronger mobs like rares and bosses. It's also a very interesting playstyle that I'm still getting used to, mashing the whole row of skill buttons for each pack: searing bond - lw totem - lw totem - (activate curse-immunity mana flask) - flammability - ele weakness - enduring cry - (activate curse-immunity quicksilver) - refresh totems etc. A very active build indeed, with some nice fireworks as a reward.

With regards to the broken skill trees (poedb's fault), thank you Bizze for sharing your tree. As for a leveling tree that can be used before Soul Mantle / lw totems, I made this one:

I think this is 90% the same as the one posted in the guide, a mix of my memory of it and my own tree when I switched. Two remarks:

1) You can at some point join two branches of your tree together at the Shaper node at scion (close to EE), and spec out of Retribution, an int node and a dex node (as recommended by the original build guide)

2) If you are leveling with dual flame totem (like me), or anything really that benefits from spell damage, you probably want to start with the templar's path of elemental damage -> spell damage nodes, instead of those life regen / mana regen nodes. Again, you can respec this later on.

Link your passive tree and gear please

sorry, work has been busy, and I got pulled away for a while. Here is the tree

I have deviated a bit, but I really don't think it should be causing this, I got every totem passive you did I believe, and here is equipment, pretty crap for merciless, but it works.




I'm probably missing something obvious, and the time thing probably won't be such a huge issue once I get my damage up more, working on that, but I was rather curious if I was the only one with such a short warp totem time.

I cant open passive trees plz help :( <3

I leveled as dual searing bonds because i wanted to see the damage changes at low levels that came with 2.0. It isn't as effective as starting off with dual flame totems till Soul Mantle it did the job pretty well.

This start requires a few respec points later but it rushes dual totems ASAP with minimal respec costs.

remember - make sure you can grab EE as soon as you hit 49 (soul mantle)
totem life is important
totem resistances is important
get +#% to all totem resistances on your jewel slots

The build is very simple to progress through. After you hit dual totems just fill in the spots that you feel are currently weak why still rushing for the Totemic Zeal cluster and EE so they are ready by 49. other then what I just mentioned I prioritize as followed:

1) Totem Defense and Life
2) Life (1k/2k/3k min for each difficulty level respectively)
3) Damage

@Kartikdon

Thanks for dual-tots rush + full build updates.. am trying this now in tempest. ;)

Will it be possible to list down the kind of Jewels that you are using or/to look out for?


Also, I have tried to run this build with the Unique Jewel (Self Flagellation), but with an Enfeeble on myself, it negates all the boosted damage back to square one.

If you're not interested in loot, try http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Combustibles

(I'd make it look pretty, but I don't know what this forum uses to make the link hidden.)
