[3.8] LiftingNerdBro's Uber Lab Warchief Totem Champion - Great League Starter!
" You are correct. It is mainly to slow enemies. Personally I don’t see much value in the slow. I use it as a reminder that all my end charges just got eaten up and it’s time to do another endurance cry. |

Hi guys, i am rather new to the game so my apologies if i am asking a silly question. instead of vengence - knockback-blind-life leech, can I use a searing bond totem instead of knockback? 1 more totem cannot harm right?

10iq...
Blind is about 50% miss, hard to get better value |

" That's actually an interesting idea with the searing bond totem. I may try that too at some point since that is just one more way to create damage. A proper vengeance setup is linked with life gain on hit and blind at minimum. the knockback is just an added safety feature if you are getting murdered. I have experimented with many different setups in this build and I just like how much vengeance procs with blind, so I use that at min. But give it a try and experiment with what feels right for you. Currently in my own setup I am only linking vengeance with blind because I need the other 2 spots for enduring cry and increased duration because I am linking so many other things with leap slam and cyclone. This is how I 5-linked cyclone: Really works great, since Lifting clued us in on the fact that culling strike will proc even through we are not doing any damage, and I love the 10% attack speed buff it gives you for the 20% qual. And yea, I am still leveling my gems. I can't complain though. My sheet damage is still 157k with Lion's roar active, so it's only going to get better. My Starforge is also only middle of the road, so once I divine it a few times, level all my gems and min/max my gear it should peak around 180k or so. Last league I got this build cranking out about 420k dps according to PoB, so I expect to get it even higher this league. LOVE this build! |

" Are you running shaper or Uber atziri with this build? Is it viable if I upgrade to Kaom's and 6L starforge? |
|
" Not yet, but I plan to, assuming the league doesn't fall apart due to the poor decisions of GGG about this league. It's like one of the devs took a vacation to Arizona to visit all the native American Indian reservations and came back with a horrible idea. |

" Привет) Nice, but one question... DoFL is condition of you or totem? If full life on totem... ну ты понял) |

Regarding Searing Bond, it's worked worked well for me during leveling. It gives about 50% more damage (my tool tip at level 73 says about 3.2k DPS with Warchief/The Blood Reaper below, about 1.6k DPS with Searing Bond) and according to the wiki plays well with Vulnerability. However, I don't think it'll scale well once you seriously start upgrading your gear because it's a flat DPS.

I'm probably missing something basic, but please bear with me. I'm trying to implement Lifting's alternative defensive setup (Vengeance-blind-life gained on hit-knockback) but the screen says I can't use vengeance when I hotkey it.
Does having Ancestral Bond bar this setup from working? My weapon is a Kondo's Pride and these gems are in my boots, linked together. Last edited by Thump553#1513 on Mar 16, 2018, 8:46:57 PM
