[1.3.x] Dual Flame Totems: Solo, Self-Found, Beginner-friendly. AA+EB!

Why did you go for the 14% totem placement speed and not the 8% totem damage, any specific reason?

I really like this build. First build I've actually gotten to high 80's and high level maps. Bought most of my current gear after I started maps, and didn't even have a 5L until about 83.

I'm using different auras for the build, mostly just replaced Discipline with Vitality, since I feel the extra mana isn't really needed. (Also using Haste, due to an absurdly lucky corruption on my boots. :D)

Can i complete the four challenges of the new one month league with this build? I'm back in the game since long time ago and i'm totally lost ^^'

You sure can! It's probably the safest build I've ever played. Hoping to get 80 in HC with it.
I'm personally using this one: http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/989913 , but this build looks really great too. And the whole build description is amazing and probably super helpful for a new-ish player.

Started playing this build in rampage and decided to go with this for the 1 month league

currently lvl 76 , here is the tree :

Here is the gear :



Used a shield up till lvl 74 and switched to a 2nd wand for more damage when the rings and amulet were added



The wands need upgrading , this build is still a work in progress for me

The empty red slot on the boots is for empower to link with AA

all of the gear was self found/crafted apart from the belly which was bought for 20c

Died all of 5 times , most couldve been avoided by playing a little smarter

Has 4k life and 1350 tootip dps for flame totem

Currently playing this in the 1 month Challenge. Got a Soul Mantle drop and very tempted to use it for a 3rd totem. I know colors will be difficult and the downside sort of sucks but curious to know if anyone tried it with this build.

I just wanna say this build is great for hc! Flame totems is perfect for hc due to how safe it is and you still do great damage even if you invest more in life nodes. The only adjustment I made was filling the scion life wheel.

I also like how discipline essentially becomes a 2nd clarity aura under EB; I had no problems supporting a high level AA with some additional mana regen from gear.

Finished 4/4 in Torment / Bloodlines HC 1M League with a slightly modified version of this build.

Hi,

First of all, I love this build, makes it Super easy to play.

however, I would like to check if EB is really required? Currently, I have around 2.5k health at lvl 67 and 1k ES (with discipline). I am rather worried if i go EB, without the ES, my health will drop alot faster.

It depends on your mana pool after reservations and your mana regen. If you have enough mana to spam totems and curses without going oom then its fine to hold off getting it till you need it imo.
