[1.3.0] [BL/TM] BM Flame Totem solo Magic Find/group culler. (78+Maps solo/Dominus)

I'm curious why these builds aren't using the Iron Will support gem. It seems a natural for the build.

which gems are best for dps 4l?

add chaos demage
flame totem
faster casting
gmp

or

fire penetraion
gmp
flame totem
add chaos demage

or

flame totem
faster casting
gmp
fire penetraion

herald of thunder and herald of ice work with totem?

It's a question of what you remove to make space for it. Added chaos and fire pen both help with the problem of fire resist curse immune rares, but iron will wouldn't. Maybe fire pen + iron will would be better than fire pen + chaos damage in a 6L though because they work together.

Faster casting I think. And yes, both heralds work. Apparently thunder better than ice, but I haven't tested.

Hi, I wonder how much damage must be to map high level (3k tooltip?) and how much ARMOUR without pop flask (+5000?), i mean , 75-76-77 maps white or rare

Btw, i use Flammability+Elemental Weakness+Enhance lv3 so more effective:-)

its possible reach +2,5k dps?

i already got 2.4k dps. how can i get high life?

Hmm if I'm dual cursing flamm & ele weakness, would added chaos be a better 5th link than fire pen?

This build is probably really good for dom runs. But i question weither or not it stands the trail of 78 maps.

Anyone who currently run this build on 78 maps successfully (without nearly ripping everyone other map)?

Also if yes what is your MF stats, i reckon u have to sacrifice having 450 IIR and high IIQ to be able to solo those maps.

I hope someone with experince from mapping this league can answer my questions, thanks :)0

I can run level 78 Maps pretty comfortable , but i changed the tree alot
Im now level 87 with good surviveability and dps
With my flask up i have 404 iir and 45 iiq while clearing maps fast playing solo
for groups with heartbreaker and wheel of the stormsail 443 iir and 45iiq
A friend of mine is playing a Arc culler witch who dies alot more , dealing much less dps and he needs way more expensive gear (shavronnes e.g.).
If you are looking for a ''cheap'' MF/culler build i think its a really nice build.
Here my tree and gear =)

i'm running with single andvarius and i have around 400 IIR when culling with potion on.
at the moment i'm lvl91 and i've followed the earlier 1.3 tree that was more dps oriented, with a few tweaks of my own (e.g. i took heart of flames instead of breath of flames because i felt that this build would not have benefitted by the extra chance and duration of ignites, and i also took mortal conviction from the start).
right now i have to fix a few pieces of equipment and maybe rebalance the build a bit with the endgame in mind (i kinda want to drop the block nodes that give me extra res while using a shield for the ones above giving me extra block and armor as i have capped res even in ele weakness maps, and a few other things).

i run easy maps with heralds of thunder and ice for the best clear speed, even if i turn them off if i get a light/cold resist mod on the map.
if things get difficult i usually turn off herald of ice to free 400 life reserved.
high lvl maps aren't a problem but there are mods that can make my life very difficult, some have workarounds, some do not.
i have problems with a few bosses though:
jungle valley: despite the low level of the map this is one of the most difficult bosses since the endless spiders lure the totem aggro away from the boss which has more time to deal his high damage on me (i was thinking of using cold snap trap as a workaround but i haven't tested as i don't run map that low anymore).
necropolis: i drop the heralds and run purity of ice, and use saffell's for max res and spell block (can't drop my amu for lazhwar as i get a lot of stats from it but i don't feel the need anyway),.
crematorium: i can usually stay out of her firestorm but she can kill my totems pretty fast and the fight can take a bit, also if i get hit it hurts. i usually run with saffell's/phoenix and purity of fire (a ruby flask can be an option for emergencies).
palace: i use the wall to protect myself in the first stage but the second can be hard if i get difficult mods, i open a portal for safety if i need to run away quickly and refresh my potions.
piety can be hard in temple and shrine maps but i usually just hit and run in the temple and first stage of shrine versions and i can take cover in the second stage of shrine if things get difficult (i try to destroy blue portals).
courtyard bosses aren't that difficult unless you get really bad mods, i just run around in circles recasting totems as needed and they eventually die, shipyard is a walk in the park.

i use elemental weakness instead of flammability since i don't think the extra chance to ignite is really useful and the cold/light reduction is useful as i run heralds, also quality gives 8% extra reduction.

i'm using a 6l armor and all my gems are 20/20, my dps with both heralds is a bit more than 3600 (FT, GMP, fire pen, faster casting, faster projectiles, added chaos).
