Templar - [No longer updated] Pizza Sticks: Flameblast Totem Hierophant - Forum

" viperesque wrote: Okay so we have a bit more information on the AoE changes now, and tbh this is pretty ugly for Flameblast if my understanding is correct. The maths I've done (feel free to double check and correct me) says that we now get the equivalent of 42% radius from ALL AoE sources once 2.6 hits. So that'll be pretty much like having a level 20 Increased AoE gem and no passive clusters at all - a 16% total AoE radius loss. Will post some comparison screenshots later today, but that's a lot more of a nerf than I was expecting. would it be better to run elemental proliferation now instead of increased aoe?

That's disappointing, I was planning on starting the Legacy league with this build.	Posted by Radagastt on Feb 26, 2017, 11:28:07 PM Quote this Post

Our totem reach 16% faster the 10 cap of flameblast so we practically have a better clear speed	Posted by maclarca on Feb 27, 2017, 1:41:53 AM Quote this Post
Someone made a thread on reddit about FB aoe with a pic https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/5wdtdl/flameblast_mockup_post_aoe_nerf/	Posted by Likuid on Feb 27, 2017, 2:12:55 AM Quote this Post

Having properly looked into the AoE now, I think we're fine. tl;dr: So whatever. It hurts, but it's not enough to cripple the build or change anything. Also a SUPER quick video if you want to see it hitting mobs: https://youtu.be/umW-0kg_ANc Have you done something awesome with [url=http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Sire_of_Shards]Sire of Shards[/url]? PM me and tell me all about it! Last edited by viperesque on Feb 27, 2017, 5:03:13 AM	Posted by viperesque on Feb 27, 2017, 4:59:59 AM Quote this Post

Hey, what do you guys think about using ele prolif on inquisitor now that the aoe is nerfed a bit? or maybe just straight up switching to hierophant or elementalist?	Posted by koniu91145 on Feb 27, 2017, 6:45:07 AM Quote this Post
