[3.17] The Warchief | [Facebreaker] Ancestral Warchief | Uber Boss Farmer | Beginner -> Expert

A lot of questions and no help. I am so sad... and I don't see anything about multiple totems to get 5 totems. maybe because im a chieftain.

@Dontbejello
first of all its because i dont have much time atm. im ill and and I lie in bed all the time. secccond is that im played this game myself wich means i dont look every day into this thread. sounds fair or ?

if you want 5 totems you need tokuhama or +1 totem enchant. dont see your problems.

the herald is like Glendoor said, because it gives us tons of flat physical dmg

@Bromeek
you need a bit training in where to place your totems right. if you place them in front of a boss he will hit them easy, if you place them behind him, they will live way longer because he wont attack them immediately

@kchan821
if you feel like its wasted. just dont use it with tukohama. i mean there is no difference from the playstyle like before with tokuhama (you placed 3 totems with 3 uses, now you place 5 totems with 3 uses). you "should" nothing :D its as always a personal preference. play what you like more ;)

@Sombra1337
with beserker you have your warcry wich gives you 25% mana and life on each cast. with that you never ever have mana problems at all. as chieftain you just cant spam them but if you realy feel bad with your mana, you can also pick some mana reg jewels or a mana flask

@kchan821
you need so much dex because of the vaal Haste. just lvl it to 10 and not further and you will not need so much dex with simmilar output

Thanks for the response. I will look into some gears with lower dex...

I have been looking into PoB comparing multiple totem vs full life and Tukohama vs great old one and notice these differences (correct me if I am wrong):

Assuming getting ancestral bond.

A) Tukohama version gives has more life and armor than great Old one

And DPS in the following order:
1) Great Old one with multi totem (4 totem)
2) Tukohama (3 totem) OR Great Old one (2 totem) with Full life support (less consistent than #1 and #3 as well)
3) Tukohama with multi totem (5 totem). The 5th totem not efficient therefore the low DPS compared to the others.

Thanks,

I have a Tabula Rosa and am kind of confused how this build works leveling up. Can someone explain what gems I should have while leveling? I currently am using Ancestral Warchief with the supported skills. But should I just be hitting things with Infernal Blow after casting this?

Sure if you don't have Ancestral bond yet. But I remember things die quickly without the need of using any skill even before getting Ancestral bond.

Thanks for the reply. I got everything linked up properly and leveled, and things are dying very fast.

So which tree do i use? one paths up to scion, which is what i was thinking i had to do, for that new gem, but the PoB doesnt go over there, and grabs blood magic

Hey thanks for your good guides. I played the Chieftain Version allready and was happy with it but why we dont take Iron Refelexes any more?

Ps.Gute Besserung!

Its OK man your guide is already way more detailed than many other build guides out there. I wish you fast recovery ;)

It's just maybe you want to add that Herald is purely for added damage and not minions, I spent a lot of time trying to figure how the totems are supposed to summon minions. On the other hand I learned a lot about nodes and interactions in process so it wasnt time wasted ;)

As for the build itself, I started playing it since I found Facebreakers with my SSF starter character, and it's the only decent build-enabling unique I have so far. Also I only play SSF and I've never even attempted elder, shaper or uberlab before so I figured I'll give it a try with totems Berserker. So far leveling seems to be incredibly easy, I've killed final Kitava at level 63 without breaking a sweat and only had to used portal once. Using tabula rasa and random rares/uniques I happened to have around, last upgraded probably at lvl 30 ;) It's definitely not the kind of gameplay style I'd enjoy most, but it's also definitely effective, and beggars cannot be choosers. Maybe this league I finally get around to killing some of end game bosses and finishing uberlab :)
