St. ELMO's Fire (Dual Totem, Dual Curse, EE, Fire Trap Templar) NERFED :( RIP build
" I saw your tree maybe for softcore. My character is a hardcore char so I went defensive and all the resist nodes I grabbed definately payed off for many reasons. 1.) You missed the dex nodes for Fire Trap 2.) Last boss put me down to under 50% life in 1 hit w/ 80% cold resist 3.) I do not have to be picky about resists on gear 4.) The build really doesn't need any more damage just cast speed to cast totems faster Video is Here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CfkMWr7RwuY&feature=youtu.be IGN: YeahCrit

fantastic job. i love the build. i will get around to adapting my build.
What do you think about flame totem and maybe Searing Longstaff. Therefore leaving out EE |

" you are calculating the damage with remote mine incorrectly, it would be 480 * 1.54 (iron will) * 1.42 (remote mine)= 1049.7, since remote mine is a more mod, not increased mod. So you actually do more damage than you are listing here. If you add in concentrated effect, that's also an additional multiplier. Why are you using lvl 10 mine in your calculation, though? There's no point not leveling it. https://www.youtube.com/@esvbanARPGs

i have a similar build myself (albeit it is stashed atm at lvl40) and i have some questions:
first of all, while my build is similar, it is based on witch utilizing arc totem/firetrap/dual curses (not dual totems though and not so much life/resists) first of all: how do you manage to hit things with mines-firetrap? i tried to do so myself a while back and the delay between seting the mine->delay for trap to set was too much for fast mobs. or do you constatly lure mobs to preset mines? second: why dont you use elemental equilibrioum on arc totem? with base chance +shock passives that is 30% that each targett will apply the shock debuff to all around him meaning i usually have 3 stacks on all mobs constantly third: how come you don't use the burn passive cluster? the +60% damage on burn synergizes well with searing touch for +130% burn aoe in the ground (and with +ignite if you put that into firetrap). also firetrap has a quality bonus of +burn damage that applies both to ground aoe and burn damage from the trap itself |

What do you think about flame totem and maybe Searing Longstaff. Therefore leaving out EE
I believe fame totem is a bad idea. It does alot of damage, but its short range will get it killed by the hard hitting ranged mobs IN A3 merciless. I thought about searing touch myself. The EE buff is what gives the traps the HUGE dmg boost. Along w/ the shocked status from ARC. Your talking HUGE multiplicative bonuses in there and this is what this build is based off of. I do think maybe I will test without EE once I can strengthen the arc totems accordingly. 20% quality faster cast + chain + elemental proliferation. how do you manage to hit things with mines-firetrap? i tried to do so myself a while back and the delay between seting the mine->delay for trap to set was too much for fast mobs. or do you constatly lure mobs to preset mines? I have not yet used the mines :( so I am not sure about the delay there. :( I will definately test this and eliminate from build. I was thinking of spamming detonate button while throwing the mines. BEST question so far! why dont you use elemental equilibrioum on arc totem? with base chance +shock passives that is 30% that each targett will apply the shock debuff to all around him meaning i usually have 3 stacks on all mobs constantly I do plan on using Elemental Proliferation. I do not have the sockets on my gear at the moment. I believe faster casting is better than elemental proliferations because 1.) You cast the initial totem faster. 2.) Totem casts faster. how come you don't use the burn passive cluster? the +60% damage on burn synergizes well with searing touch for +130% burn aoe in the ground (and with +ignite if you put that into firetrap). also firetrap has a quality bonus of +burn damage that applies both to ground aoe and burn damage from the trap itself I think burn takes too long to be effective. Throw 1 more trap in the time it takes to burn the enemy to death. Even if the enemy is burning from multiple traps, he only takes damage from 1 trap but it calculated the highest dmg. Just throw another trap, its faster. Why are you using lvl 10 mine in your calculation, though? There's no point not leveling it. That was the only solid number I had of remote mine damage. I do not know the higher levels of damage it does. Thanks for damage corrections too.

What spells should I use for early game and what should I prioritize for stats?
