Interesting build, planning on trying it in the 1 month race. Have you looked at Echo for the totems instead of Faster Casting?


Everything I read said it didn't work with totems.

Thank you for the guide, Jake!

I'm currently level 33 on my templar and have been leveling with searing bond. It's effective, but I must say, I can't wait to be able to use incinerate totems effectively; searing bond's playstyle just feels really awkward to me and doesn't synergize all that well with frost wall, so I feel vulnerable when dealing with in-your-face enemies (Undying Grapplers, Croaking Chimerals, etc).

At what level did you feel comfortable switching to incinerate totems? I have enough regrets to back out of the burning nodes I've been using for searing bond, but I've seen a few posts indicating the life/survivability of one's incinerate totems is the limiting factor in their effective use until later levels.

Is there anything I can do to transition sooner? I have a few exalts to spend if necessary.


I used incinerate totems at like 46, but previously I was doing a completely different build that didn't pan out. I'd assume you can use them earlier, but I'd also guess that Searing Bond is probably better until you're able to use a 5-link.

That'd be my guess though, Searing Bond was awful when I was levelling it.

Confirmed. Spell Echo does not work with totems. I'm not sure I'd want it to work anyway, though, as I prefer to be able to space my totems out a bit.

Also, look for HQ videos to start popping up in the video section, as my new computer seems to make uploading HQ videos a lot easier.

I have a ton of level 76-78 maps that I intend to solo after I finish 91, including potential updates to the near naked video section. Nice thing about SC is that every now and then, you can just put yourself in a situation where you know you'll die and its fine.

Love to see more of them, especially stuff w/o the GG staff and chest. I'm hitting maps finally and my totems feel like they are losing power at a crazy rate. I should have been practicing more with frost wall.

I started experimenting with conversion trap, pulling one of my CwDT setups.

Frost Wall seems really critical to my build against certain types of enemies.

Some of the videos I intend to make show me playing the build with terrible, terrible gear, just to show you don't need the Staff and Chest to make it work.

I just uploaded some new footage of me doing level 77-78 maps in my standard gear setup.

Added a comment about Enfeeble. I've been enjoying Enfeeble with Windscream in place of Legacy Goldwurm's for higher level maps (obv I'd rather have the IIQ in low maps).

I honestly don't know where to go and focus on in the skill tree. Can you put a recommended progression passive skill tree? For example

25 points: *link*
50 points: *link*
75 points: *link*
90 points: *link*

Thanks, im new to the game and I don't feel like I will do good if I don't get direction.
