So is chieftain the way to go in 3.6?

i heard so i myself struggle alot without life regen or leech with this build but the dmg is very nice leeching wud make me not die much nd lvl tho im stuck at 95
first time attempting shaper (lol)

cleared all guardians easily but couldn't down shaper himself at his last phase due to A LOT of bad luck throughout the fight.

got this dps boost before the fight:



totally worth it!

will try shaper again on a later date xP

mapping now is ultra smooth (was already very good before this acquistion)

If you want participate in flashback event I suggest try chieftain. You will love leech from totems for sure. Leveling in first day of new league / event is very easy using warchief totems until 60-70 lvl then switching for ele hit. Prophecy for Frostferno needs access to t8 map so its important to have strong skill that not need any specific gear to shine on first league hours.

next to the lousiest build i've ever played.. "9.6mill" DPS took me over 15 minutes to down minotaur.. FML....



sure it clears quite well.... but single target is just disappointing...
totems just keep getting 1hit by any little hit.
cant even clear the stupid syndicate pop-ups....

I'll stick with my w.orb/incinerate.


Greetings,

- No corruption on items (Helm white sockets corruption does not bring anything DPS wise).
- Gems not maxed and especially none corrupted to 20+ quality or level 21+.
- Only one curse.
- Rings are...well...Let's just say they kind of suck.
- Belt is bleh, boots are bleh.
-The jewels in your gloves are bleh.
- Frenzy level 19 and not level 1???
- No good lab enchants.
- I kind of guess, even if you have a kaom's heart with your items, you are barely making it to 5.0k life.
- I did not even took a lot at your tree to see if it is of the same quality of you gems and equipment.

I was able to do all content except Shaper, Betrayal boss (This league) and Synthesis boss (This league) because of lack of time.

I do think sir, that this character lacks a lot in items and gems wise and I suspect that your knowledge of the build may be sophomoric.

Thank you

This league I did a Hiero and a Chieftain just for the kick of it. Hiero, I hit 7.1k life. Same equipment (one more abyss gem), I hit 7.7k life with Chieftain. I have to say that I did not worry to much about the tree on chieftain, I am sure he can do better. Also, I decided to use projectile weakness for my curse and save a few points on my hiero tree to get more life.

Chieftain Advantages:
- Life Regen makes survavibility easier if you are a beginner. An experienced player will eb able to avoid most pitfalls. If you want to aim for level 100, Chieftain is the way to go.
- Easier to reach 7k
- Totems survivability seems better
Chieftain disadvantage
- 3 totem instead of four (Here someone confirm please, I kind of having a blank after a 14 hours work shift)
- You can place only one totem at a time.
- Going to get the pierce node on the far right of the tree is a pain. I changed my curse and liked it so much that I did it on my hiero too.
- Mana regeneration was never an issue with hiero. With the Chieftain, I ran out of mana sometimes and I had to wait 2-3 secs before I could summon a totem (It may depends on your playstyle. Mine is that in dangerous areas or Delve, I walk a few steps and put a totem as far as I can in front of me or the crawler.) .

On a last note, it would be incredible if a more knowledgeable player than me could try to make a build ES/CI, maybe giving up a totem to be able to use a spell for shield leech. ES is way too powerful now compared to life. Without any effort, I was able to make an occultist with 11k ES, immune to chaos dmg. It took a lot of work to get the hiero to 7.1k and it can still get 1 shot killed on medium strength map mods.

Thank you

Chieftian don't have any mana issues if you use blood magic. You should use blood magic as chieftain because dps is more then enough and it gives you best +% max life points and freedom to do no regen maps in super comfortable way.

Chieftain can have 8k life at ~90 lvl easy.

Chieftain can do elemental reflect maps because its totems are 100% fire damage immune ( Tukohama ascendancy ).

At some gear lvl you need single totem for map clearing, so putting single one at time is not issue at all.

Totems heal themselves, it's big help sometimes.

Leech is most amazing chieftain thing. Its huge QoL.

Chieftan can do any map just alch + vaal orb and go. There is no any "no go" mods for him.

What about the mana/life reservation of Haste or Grace or Blasphemy? Am I missing something?

Thank you
I simply don't use any permanent aura, only vaal haste.
My Chieftain got unique passive tree and tons of fire penetration compensates this.

Can someone please explain me why Flammability did not work as aura on my boots?
