[3.4] √ SeaBaller, Totem Arc Hierophant, Mind over Matter

"

Thanks for your guide. Curious, since shimmerons are popular/bis(?) for arc totems, how does your build compare to using those?

Thank you. Two very good weapons, as I have, are comparable to two Shimmerons in term of damage, best in slot is a Shaper Dagger (50% crit chance) and a Scepter (6% penet or 40% ele dmg) with Whirling Blades (best movement skill) in my opinion, also I like the Sai Dagger with the 6% block. The best in slot maybe are two Sai that give 12% inc. block chance, but it's not a common opinion. :)

Hi, When I am using 2x rare wands, the tooltip dmg at 61% penetration is ~137k per totem!

The screenshot is on 6 power charges, Arcane surge and Sulphur flask, While the penetration without Wiseoak is 46% (from tree and gear)


I also tested with (1,2) X Shimmeron and it makes a boost of about 11% per Shimmeron with the same buffs.

Yeah, your DPS is very good, can you post your setup too (for reference, items and tree)?

I have taken a lot of Mana nodes, to have the best life/mana ratio with my equipment, maybe it's not the optimal setup overall (in terms of life / damage). I have 9K total life and free mana.

There are 3 nodes of damage that could be nice to take: Arcane Potency and Celestial Judgment, Heart of Thunder, that also had a nice buff with the 3.3. Then Shamanistic Fury.

Follows a comparison of two builds without Heart of Thunder:




So yeah, the build tree is not DPS oriented atm and it's improvable. I seen many 1M+ dps builds in the forums (and your too). Also with some equipment variants.

1M should be the minimum target DPS to kill Uber Elder. I did it with almost 1M and a slighty different setup.

I did a small break from Standard atm, playing an HC Character. Stay Tuned.

which Ascendancy skills did you pick?

Oops I forgot the Ascendencies, all the 4 are very important:

Conviction of Power - Gives Power and Endurance Charges - some damage and defences
Pursuit of Faith - Gives 1 additional totem
Ritual of Awakening - Gives 1 additional totem and regeneration
Divine Guidance - Mana and 10% increased damage on mana

Not sure about the order of the last two, if you have enough mana, 10% damage on mana is very good.

Now Farming some T8+ maps with magic find (I just changed 3 items [edit] and some respec), and i'm about at 50% of level 96, going to level 97.

Play all the map mods, skipping reflect and no regen (still i can do them, but slower), [edit] also I respeced bandits for Alira, to play weakness maps.

I buyed a Bisco Collar Legacy, and added a IIQ gem and some IIQ on gloves, so I have.

IIQ is 58% (+100% against normal)
IIR is 46% (+150% against magic)

Still Should I have about 600k Shaper DPS with this setup, also I leveling some gems,

and I should be able to do all the maps and mods, until t15, maybe some guardians too.

MAGIC FIND SOFTCORE LEGACY SETUP







See You at 97.

see any issues with 3.4 patch?

- Lvl 97
I just leveled up 10 minutes before 3.4 ver.

- tree updated for 3.4 ver.
I updated the tree, Templar area is a bit improved.

I dont see other changes atm.

Enjoy!

Elemental focus is nice? bc shock is good to arc.

Im thinking about using Starkonja instead of Devoto's here, Memory vault could also work nicely if i can get enough Dex.
