By the way, does the Heralds work on totem ? I thought this had been changed long ago.

yes they do!

Nice thanks !

by the way, your question got me thinking. The proc on heralds wont work, cuz it needs that you and not the totem kill the target. but the damage increase does work.

Thanks for the information, Deadbringer. Your choice of skills are pretty interesting. I'm curious which skill is better for this: Added Fire (add x% physical as fire) vs Added Lightning (add x–y Lightning Damage).

Early on it is pretty irrelevant which one you use, but later on Added Fire is vastly superior. If you want lightning damage on your totem, link it to Physical to Lightning as it gives you more extra damage than the Added Lightning gem.

Okay, well, if you think this is worth using it for the dps, i will try =)

Wouldn't Shadow be a better pick and get the phys notables over the spell ones at witch, considering you run Hatred and phys to Lightning? Anyways, running a similar build, but from Scion.

It's exactly the same. Spell damage boost your physical damage too, since showckwave totems are spells.

They only difference is when you are linking Added Chaos Damage. When you link it to a spell, increases to spell damage also increase the added chaos damage, this is why i use a witch, cuz i was also swapping between flame totem, which uses added chaos damage.

The passives for those two builds are almost the same, just removing the inc aoe and taking sniper and the projectiles nodes at the shadow. Also you will need an ES chest for more blue links.

Last but not least, witches are hot!

Thanks for your response. I might try your build after this Scion one. Your thread still helped me out some.

why you use mind over a matter if you reserve 100% of mana?
