[2.2 Video Guide] Beginner's Build: Dual Flame Totem, Blood Magic Chieftain [Atziri & HC/SC Viable]

Why totem damage from tree doesn't increase dps shown in tooltip?
I just leveled a bit and got first 3 +12,+20% totem damage nodes
and no change after every point added.

Since this build uses blood magic then when you use Herald of Thunder you end up reserving your hp since you have no mana. Doesn't that make you a lot more vulnerable? Not sure if that was your intention or not but I don't think it's worth reserving all that hp?

It takes only 12,5% hp thats maybe 500hp when you are geared

Thanks for the great build.

Really nice build. I love playing with it with my witch.

But i have a big problem to be able to use some wand (the better one...) : my intelligence is too low, and it's hard to up it. How do you do to resolve it ? Putting some points in the build giving intelligence ?

Hi, could anyone please help me? Before the skilltree was reset, i played a templar with a burning build. i would like to try a Dual or Tripple Flame Totem build instead. do you think my equip is usefull for this, or do i need to change some items


i also have the coat in my stash to use a third totem. Would you advice me to use it?

are there any special skills i should chose in the skill tree, or should i just copy the one used in by someone else playing this build. Sory, that this is such a komplex question and sory for my bad english.

I think this is great weapon for this build.
With this one your totems deal 100% chaos damage



Oh one question that bothers me. Do you need fire penetration when 100% of fire is converted into chaos?

Im wondering the same thing

Hi, I have a question regarding gear progression. I currently have around 2 ex in currency and am wondering whether it is better to get a 6 link chest or a 5-link Infernal mantle. I dont yet have the funds for a 6 link mantle. Also I am currently dual wielding wands with little problems regarding surviveability. Do I understand right that a shield is only required to offset the defense loss of an infernal? If so, wouldn't just going for a 6-link be more profitable?

Regards, Astorai

I'm level 50 now and wondering, what would be a good backup spell to cast while the totems do their thing? I've been using srs until now but they've gotten pretty weak compared to the difficulty and I'm sure there's something better I could do in the meantime. Preferrably something firemagic.

For your main attack you will be using Flame Totem linked with Faster Casting, Fire Penetration, Faster Projectiles, Controlled Destruction and Iron Will.

For a 5-link leave out Iron Will and for a 4-link leave out Iron Will and Added Chaos Damage.

Doesnt make any sense. Where did you implement Added Chaos Damage in the 6 link? What are you removing? Controlled Destruction?
