[Nemesis] Tree Update 1.0.3! Knight Of Fire (Righteous Fire + Cyclone Marauder)

Another thing ive been been wondering about is the OP's use of firestorm. does it do decent damage and increase clear speeds? I don't really see him using it in his videos

EDIT: I thought of another question...
Since I dont see myself affording a searing touch very soon, if I was to use a dagger with +1 skills +2 fire skills and increased fire dmg would that all snapshot? It would just be a 3 link with RF, Concentration and Increased burn dmg

The +3 to Fire skills would snapshot...but doing it with a staff is best so you can have a 4L.

...For a 4L searing touch you only need an ilvl 28 one...can buy searing touch for like 2 chaos and 4L is for another 1-2 chaos worth of currency...don't need the 5L until later there's nothing else to improve on in your build IMO.


...and I think he's leveling Firestorm for testing purposes/just to level the gem.

so wth do i put in this beast? fire pen ? culling ? dont feel like empower would be good maybe enhance hrmmm

-Righteous Fire
-Increased Burning Damage
-Inc AoE
-Conc Effect
-Culling

-6L-
-Enhance if your Spell Casting
-Other wise anything that gives +% to fire damage with quality.

Firestorm is there to take out totems. Mostly just the "allies cannot die" ones. Aurumvorax does too little damage to rely on to take them out so it's best to use firestorm. It does crap damage but it gets the job done.

The reason it's firestorm is because usually those totems are surrounded by mobs so you need to nuke it from orbit. Storm call would also work but since I have Kaom's a fire spell would do more damage.

*RF doesn't effect totems

conversion trap could also just eat the totems for a bit

This is... Brilliant!
Although I wouldn't be able to take out totem bosses like in underground sea map.

hah yeah but thats a lower map anywho, few quesitons for you rumthorp or anyone who 100% knows the answers ~

have you tried doon mace yet ?

does it do more damage for RF even though you snapshot'd it from searing ?

if it does work, will it do more damage to you ?

thats about it, build looks fun my buddy and i are both leveling it atm to dual RF maps and such.
i guess explo arrow or EK for rough maps

Just carry a 2-hander with you at all times (preferably 4l++) and use Cyclone+BM+incr. phys. dam.+ life gained on hit (+faster attacks/added fire/culling with 5l+) and do the harder maps with that. I've transitioned into RF from a pure cyclone build by just taking 5 more life-reg nodes so you should be fine. You might want to switch purity of fire to purity of elements with this setup but apart from that, it's essentially the same.

Hint: have a skelly-brotem with CoDT and you'll never see the HP-bubble moving
