Nice build, decent guide, would give it 5/5 stars if not for the lv 1-40 leech from public parties *advise*, which is hardly a fair thing (not *PC*). You can save 3 passive points in that build (1 double route / loop, 2 points for taking a shorter route): +10 INT node below Chaos Resist supernode = redundant ( = loop ) Between the Witch quadrant and the Shadow quadrant, connect towards Mental Acuity instead of towards Mind Drinker. Every SP counts! Always make sure you cut down on highway passives as much as you can, use backtracing, too (highlight shortest path) If you're leaving PoE, chances are I'll rezz you as my minion! MWHAHAHAH

I really appreciate your post dude! Small things like a few points i miss but they are extremely crucial as every point counts. thanks alot! will change build tonight when i get home from school. i dont like highlight shortest path tho it sometimes give me horrible advice, but now i will look at it! however your point about mental acuity shortcut, i wouldnt go that way in the beginning and i am changing my build to not get to mental acuity at all (skip nodes after big ice node). instead they will go to energy shield. however i will keep that in mind!

Hey Hypershatter,
How do you get that much dmg? Im not sure where witches get their damage from. Right now im using and I know those are really bad but i was still wondering if i did something wrong or if wearing your weapons would really increase my damage with Bear trap by almost 1k dps. This is my current skill tree: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgMAAP0C4wdjB6UOSBFQEZYUsBbzF1AXVB0UIoEmPCepLKcvnTvhQ2NJskwtVytY9VnzWitd8l8qZp5tGXFNc1N0VXzOf8aCEIIeiEKOPI9Gms-boZ3Eoi6io6PypyusmLcxu9bAGsHz0NDfsOL35oHr5PId99f60g== |

" bear trap dmg comes primarily through leveling the gem and spell dmg does not scale with it (tooltip lies!). spell crit and crit dmg do tho. IGN: hyperculler (torment)

" Could you tell me the Tooltip dps of your spelltotem/ice spear? |

Hey guys!
Im running a dual totem ice spear witch. Was using only 1 totem and spammin freezing pulse on Cruel. Also using fire and bear traps and working my way to hex master and whispers of doom. Its kinda hard for me do solo but I usually play with some friends so its ok. One question: whats your dps on the spell totem ? Mine is at 190 dps, leveling all the gems everytime I can. I have Spell Totem + Ice Spear + GMP + Faster Casting. I know the dps is severely reduced because of the totem itself and gmp, but is it supposed to be that low ? Just to double check, the totem dmg is affected by all the cold dmg nods, the spell dmg nods and elemental dmg (on the templar tree) right ? Im not going CI (I have 1600 hp 900 ES act 1 merciless, I know its low) since it would be suicidal right now. So I took the hp nods from templar tree (considering taking the res nods from shield there). Any advice is appreciated Here is my build so far: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-skill-tree/AAAAAgMBAnEEswVbB2MI9BEtEdsUTRdUGjgabCKBKU8snCynOtg74UbXTdhVxlZKVytZ81orXcZgbWaebRl5A3yDgW-DOIt6i4yMdo48jr6PRpBVkjiSwZUEnYCdrp48ogCj8qcIpyunhK-buJPAGsBUwfPN-s9l0NDa3d3z37Dhc-L35CLmgew47SDxdg== Thanks and great thread ! |

" That DPS is PER PROJECTILE, not the total sum DPS. You're shooting 5 projectiles doing 190 each. Let's do some math (190 x 5) x2 = 760 total DPS (BEFORE RESISTS/CURSES) provided they're all shooting at the same thing. Given the realistic DPS is probably closer to 400ish because of the spread of the projectiles, but trust me, you're doing LOADS of damage, especially on bosses who are trying to hump your totems, then you're probably hitting for the full damage. Also take into consideration you're critting at long range which is doing like 300% the normal damage. Your traps might do more individual damage, but your totems are clearing the godamn field! Don't worry, sounds like you're doing fine. edit: just did some testing and it seems like my theory is correct, it's calculating the dps of the projectile, not the dps of all of the projectiles. edit 2: Also I just found a ice spear 20% quality and I'm thinking the most important gems to get in high quality are ice spear (first) GMP (second) with increased cast speed coming in last.
