[2.5] Dual Flame Totem Crit version. 263k dps (400k possible) . Uber and Normal Atziri
@llHighFivell
It is Rusherboy's variation. He told me to swap out my weapon for The Consuming Dark along with the gems I currently use. Congrats on your first kill. Wish you many more. Hopefully when the mirror falls for you, your reaction will be, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PvcoSaeUZ-A No that is not me, it is just a video I found.

" I like your tree, it is perfect for an elemental build. Ahewaz: What do you think about chaos nodes with a consuming ? https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwMA37CCEI-mRKtVriycBUJBlq6z0PVMsy0f0B8EB5Ug7-uD2x8CwfNVxjbFoqM6WIPz2CR_xg_ETq6FbacIEZaTJzt8sTbVgY9GDkgHHr6KL53viLjKrhIk2B0UXfKVLqEvFvP5N_rSjmQqCysK8NUmPNfPZp4Wb_emcFIRL4_6SVFJsXIPWOXjarb6idPrY1xA6_VZ8yoTjDa1SDY9h8vDCRo4WitVS52qG8inm7mTkFWj8mHibIzP3XWe8h0nLyaVYqzxis8VFr9zs_BrFeckqjbplG9mVFH7zRYfGAMeH0E= minion stats: http://goo.gl/gQxs0w Modifiers: http://goo.gl/jGIr8b Zombie dps calculator: http://goo.gl/XIStJV Last edited by Galax201#1110 on Feb 18, 2016, 10:27:46 AM

Hey, Atrophy line - I tested it a while back. The Snowforge line + 1 jewel slot nets me 1k more DPS. That's with a crappy jewel. A proper one would be well over 3k. The one thing I noticed is that you do not get the 4% increased cast speed with Chaos Skills. This build just happens to do 100% Chaos damage, it is still a classified as a fire skill as far as I can tell. Heart of Flame line - I also tested this one, the Snowforge line gives me more. The 30% Crit Chance helps a lot. Mind you I did not test them against other areas such as crit damage or cast speed. The original tree came from Rusherboy, I just fine tuned it a little.

" Thanks for the replay. I don't have a lot of experience with the consuming dark. But If i got it right each hit will poison an enemy for 10% of the initial chaos damage for 2 second. Basically a 1.2 more modifier for bosses that can be increased with modifier that double dip with flame totem. On your tree it should add a fictive 36% more damage on long fight. If we drop spell/elemental damage in favor of chaos and projectile damage we could get a 59% more damage for bosses. Example: https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwMA37CCEI-mRKtVriycBUJBlq6z0PVMsy0f0B8EB5Ug7-uD2x8CwfNVxjbFoqOD89gkf8YPxE6uhW2nCBGWkyc7fLE21YGPRuvuDkgHHr6KL53viLjKrhIk2B0UUfua4BzcfINd8pUuoS8W8_k3-tKOZM0WRZ2PGqeUKgsrCvDVJjzXz2aeFm_3ph8YU1JeXXBSES8DHo_6SVFJsXIPWOXjarb60f2J0-tjH0FcQOv1lG9Z8yoTjDa1SDY9h8vDCWZUGjhaK1VLc7OdqqebuZOQVaPyYeJsjHWe8h0nLyaVYqzPFRa_ This is under the assumption that i got the mechanic right. Of course the poison damage is useless against trash mobs. The irony :) shadow look like the best class for a poison flame totem https://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAwYAAx4EBwW1BnAHHg5ID8QRLxGWFm8Wvxo4HNwdFB8CHxgfQSTYJpUnLyoLKhMrCi0fNj02xTt8QZZFnUlRSbFMs06fTq5R-1NSVUtVxljlWfNaK1xAXfJeXWHiYqxmVGaeaoxsjHBScg91nnp_fIN_xoPbg_OFbYfLidOMNo5kjxqPRo_6kFWTJ5RvlSCVLprgnaqhL6Kjotmj8qcIp5Snm64SrrOw2LE2tMW1SLb6uMq5k76KwfPC7MMJyBTNFs8V0B_Q9dH91YHXz9gk42rrY-vu6_XviO_r8NXyHfVv96b5N_rS minion stats: http://goo.gl/gQxs0w Modifiers: http://goo.gl/jGIr8b Zombie dps calculator: http://goo.gl/XIStJV Last edited by Galax201#1110 on Feb 19, 2016, 8:44:31 AM

Very nice build. I've never tried a totem build but plan on slightly modifying this during Ascendancy to play as a Hierophant.
My one question is with jewels. You use Clear Mind, but also Clarity aura. Are you running CM just for the mana regen? |

Ahewaz, any chance for a summary post of your findings/skill tree/recommendations so far? Nice to see the build keeps developing!

I am not sure on the mechanics but it seems about right. With my current build I can only foresee 3 maps being an issue right now. Uber Atziri - Hoping to try it soon. Hall of the Grandmasters - Physically impossible to do with this build. There are masters who are 100% immune to chaos damage or have Shav's along with 10000000000% Shield Regen. I cannot even make a dent in them. Core Map - I only tried it once. If I get another one, I would love to get my revenge. Everything else dies too fast. Over time damage would be good in those 3 instances. I have tested Faster Projectiles & lost 3k DPS with my current tree. I would never give up Snowforged. Those 3 nodes give me almost 5800 DPS. To my knowledge no other 3 nodes will give that kind of bang of the buck. It would be a really good idea for mobs who destroy your totems in a sec or 2. The over time DPS would be an asset & would also negate Regen. This might help me with Hall of the Grandmasters. Not sure I will try it out now as we are only 2 weeks from the new expansion. I was hoping to get 2 more achievements & then take a break to recharge for the next expansion. @Picksomecardz Assuming you are looking at the original build by Rusherboy - He has enough mana regen so he does not use clarity anymore. On average Clear Mind will give you 3 to 5k DPS. It depends on your build. @Aedax My current build is on page 25. Nothing has changed since I posted it. My profile is also open. Feel free to poke around. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1405905/page/25 I am not Anti-Social, I am just selective on whom I wish to be social with.

Summary,
Gear https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1405905/page/25 Gems 1 - Flame Totem Level 21 - Gives me 2200 more DPS roughly from level 20. 2 - Controlled Destruction 20/23 3 - Void Manipulation 20/20 4 - Faster Casting 20/20 The above 4 account for almost 53k base DPS with my current gear / tree & are the top gems for this build. The 53k does not include pets / potions / buffs. If you have Empower level 4 nothing will top that. If I ever get one I will post the stats. After corrupting 10 of them now with nothing to show for it, I am not holding my breath. If you do not have one, Added Chaos Damage 20/20 is my next strongest gem followed by Empower Level 3 Increased Critical Strikes 20/23 Faster Projectiles 20/20 - the biggest advantage to this gem is the range. Most everything dies before you even see it however you will lose 3 to 5k DPS based on your build. If you are planning on Uber or tier 13+ maps or are a DPS freak like me, this might affect you. Debuffs, I use Assassin's Mark however I saw the video posted by llHighFivell. I was intrigued by Wither. I might play around with it. My CWDT is standard for most builds. I use Temporal Chains. Vaal Haste - Ideally for high end maps / mobs you want at least 2. My next build will most likely have 3 with Increased Duration. Running around - Whirling Blades is pretty much the standard although I still keep Lightning Warp for sentimental reasons. I think that about covers it however if you have a question, please ask. If I do not know, I will pester Rusherboy which I do daily any ways to get the answer. I am not Anti-Social, I am just selective on whom I wish to be social with.

" I've tried and you must change Consuming dark for any high spell damage wand/dagger when you face any CI enemy. They die quite fast. There's some other chars with high freeze chance that can be a problem, so you must carry some additional uniques to avoid being freezed/stunned (like alpha's howl). But its playable if you do it right. I didn't manage to finish it but i just did the gcp receipt so i didn't have my gems at 20. I'll try again when everything is up again. ara va de bo, que de bo va!
