St. ELMO's Fire (Dual Totem, Dual Curse, EE, Fire Trap Templar) NERFED :( RIP build

this is my tree vs your level 74 tree...
I would get more hp if I were you. The build does plenty of dmg. You do not need to boost damage. You do need to boost hp though. Never skimp on hp / es.

you can only skimp on hp once you get some godly gear. then spec more into damage.

I didn't miss any of the life nodes, just a few resist and shield block ones. In fact, with my new build I picked up 6 addition life nodes, 20% increased aoe radius, 60% additional mana regen,6% cast speed,1zombie with 10% minion life, and 12% max mana. Check it out (if I need more dex I can put 1 point in precision) may need to get resist on 1 or 2 pieces of gear, but usually you'll have that anyway. Also I picked up EE with this build as I've realized it's effectiveness in increasing fire trap damage.

I meant the Additional Life nodes at the marauder start tree. And also the point where enemies cannot leech life from you (Bloodless). I also see you missed "Avoid Cast Interruption". You did pick a different path and its just a bit more offensive than my build is all. We all have our preferences on where we want to take it.

I would also get some regen for those pesky damage over time maps.

Updated passive tree for newest patch.

are you playing again?

Is it worth it to pickup a few more armor nodes since armor got buffed now?

Just died at lvl 80 using this guide. Worked very well, I just was running only 2400 hp and died to that trapper boss being overconfident on a lv 68 map. Got to have more HP is all. Great build.

I am updating the build for the new patch.

I wouldn't go out of my way at all for armor.

Build has been Nerfed. :( Can no longer bypass trap timer.
