2.1 Talisman League Guide for Cheap Permacurse Dual RF Totems for Hardcore/Softcore -Atziri Viable!

Someone in this thread made my build even more broken than it is right now. I would like to thank you so much ! :D

made it to lv70 today.
I really have mixed feelings about this build. On one hand, your totem melts most monsters so quickly, you just need to put and run; on the other hand, any melee boss is a pain to kill, since they just fool around and the totems are not attractive to them. I'm totally relying on decoy totem for boss kill.

Hitting 70 in a level . My plan is to drop PoF aura for Temporal chain (3 curse-windscream).

Then no more problem. But i have to agree,theres a little something this build is missing. The dps is all nice but yeah,idk. Its somewhat different from all these other build though. So far so good. lvl70 in hardcore and still going strong.

Awesome build!

Take a little patience in act1 and act2 (until get RF), but now things just melt (2 totems).

So I designed the build in HC using a pair of windscreams and I manually cast temp chains or ele weakness depending on the boss, Problem being that you cant sawp them out because of one being green one being blue, but that is the "missing" thing your talking about :P Temp chains isnt worth being run on blashpemy btw as you only need it for scary shit and/or bosses you want to kite. (also I prefer temp chains to ele wekness) your other option is to run enfeeble if your really scared of mobs)

Failng that I spend alot of time running in large oval-loops around my totems for melee bosses etc to keep them in the burn radius, for leaping/movement bosses your right though a decoy totem is useful and I find I should have put it into my guide im sorry :( I suggest though making friends with a rock and kiting around said rock dropping totems on either side so the boss just bounces back between the 2 of them ^^

Thanks for the nice build and the well written guide. The starting scene in your video is hilarious! :D I was searching for a totem build other than flame totem/incinerate and here I found it. :) Will change it a bit and use it as mf on HC Talisman. See you there! ;)

For sure I'm half tempted myself to get a greeds embrace and a couple of vent gambles to make the build super hilarious MF :)

Warning shameless plug ahead

I'm glad your all enjoying the build If you wana come check it out Im playing this build on stream every day at twitch.tv/Thraxeus XD

Take care lads :)

Leveling is paaaaainful. Lvl 20 dual wielding the Lavianga's Wisdom and killing shit is slow and the totems die within seconds. I'm sure this gets more rewarding if you are patient...but I'm quitting at this point.

I'm thinking about replacing pof with arctic armour, and linking either temporal chains or enfeeble to cwdt. Or maybe just self cast those two defensive curses.
damn I just realized how I hate curse-immune mods.

When I had this feeling I dropped "Concentrated Effect" for "Minion and Totem Elemental Resistance". The additional fire res not only keeps the totems alive for a longer time when they suffer elemental damage but also increases the duration of the RF effect - and by dropping ConcEff the AoE is much bigger. Meanwhile, hitting 50 any moment and having spent a few skill point into totems survivability, I dropped the "Minion and Totem EleRes" again for IncAoE and it´s really rewarding, you are right.
