$$$ Grave Intentions Flame Totem MFarmer: I'm Cheap 'n' Easy $$$

Thank you for the feedback Zinsid.

1)Life Nodes - I thought that although you are still low life you can still benefit from health nodes but it makes sense I When i do go lowlife i Will switch out to only es.

2)Inner force and influence good input- when do you think I should try and have that up? How have you made your transition what is the number of es you need before discipline to low life?

3)If I cant run purity of elements but have discipline could that be good enough for totems?
What auras are you finding the best?

4) heart of flame I am thinking of adding towards the end of my build but I will get unntaural calm sooner as I am now worried about survivability

In the templar tree is it not worth getting elementalist and light of divinity? Resistance more dmg and the light radius boost.

For 6 more points you get
12% resist all
18% element and 15% spell dmg
7% cast speed
5% shock freeze ignite and
20% light radius.

Just seems good bang for buck

About the transition to Low Life: What you need is a really strong Dicipline aura. So you want all Aura Effects and Innfer Force. You'll also need ~130% ES from your passive tree.

I'd really love to take Elementalist into my build, but my survivability is so bad that I just can't do it right now. You wanna get these nodes between lvl 80 and 90.

I'm currently running Dicipline, Purity of Light/Fire/Ice/Elements and dropped Clarity. I can run either, Purity of Elements or Clarity. For starters I'd recomment running Clarity tho and get the resistances from gear.

Any tips for surviving the Dom fight?

I'm trying to do MF split runs, but each time we fight Dominus I end up dying at least once which is both disheartening and really damn annoying. I have ~2.5k ES with all my MF gear on and I have flasks rolled for shock/bleed removal, but there's nothing stopping me just outright dying to two good hits before my ES starts recharging. For now I've specced into Zealot's Oath + Vitality and that seems to be doing okay, but I haven't gotten enough runs in to tell if it will work or not.

Anyone have any advice?

I emailed the OP (friedChicken) about an update. He said he would get to the quesions soon but for now this is the updated full tree.

Thought you guys could at it and ask questions or thoughts.

Dominus is not a good fight for this build, you should focus on Piety or low lvl maps, depends on what you are looking for.

so at the starting area of the witch, the spell damage nodes are now better than the cast speed ones?

You can buy 350+ ES shields and 150+ ES helmets for 1 chaos orb each. You should be able to hit ~3.5k ES with that stuff. I use 2 Staunching Flask for the fight.

I usually try to stay away from the fight, placing one totem ad dom and one next to me to protect me from the adds. I can mostly tell when he is about to charge at me. It's pretty easy to dodge. Removing Bleeding is vital, do it asap. Carry a 3rd Staunching even if you get hit often. When he's at ~15% I place both totems next to him and switch weapons to Reaper's Persuit for the culling and extra 40% IIR. This drops me to ~2.3k ES but I rarely die then.

Good thing is that your totems will cull even when you are dead (as long as you had culling strike on when you died).

If all of that doesn't help you need to simply level up and increase your ES. I'd personally recommend to go CI for mapping. You can now wear a heavy ES chest (I hit 5k ES with a 420 ES chest) and you're immune to chaos damage. Switch the boots aswell for mapping. When you're done respec CI and get your mf equip on.

Updated new tree for 1.3 patch.

Did anyone ever try to evolve this build into incinerate? Skill tree would probably look like this. Ghost Reaver is only 4 points away.
Setup would be Incinerate - GMP - Life Leech - Item Rarity - Spell Echo - Faster Proj
