Just here to recommend this build.
You need a few changes, an other class, an other path and also other gear, but you can get up to 100 k each totem by 6 totems with great survivability at all moments. So far strongest build I ever played! ingame: @Firepopyre

Hi, can we get a real 3.9 update on the build instead of a simple [3.9] in the title? damage numbers are outdated since at least 2 league's. Items are also outdated as in they got either nerfed or changed or mechanics don't apply at all (e.g: When you explain AoF
"The weapon damage doesn't matter at all for elemental hit as it doesn't get it's damage from the weapon base damage but from the gem level. New players that take a look at your guide might get confused and keep thinking incorrect and won't know how to upgrade their build. I realy like the bow totems as i am playing an Iron Commander build right now and am looking for more fun BowTotem builds. Also there are typos here and there. Just an overall overhaul would be nice.

Announcements
(19th Dec 2020) I have decided and will be creating a new post to migrate this guide to when 3.13 draws nearer(Around a week before 3.13 reveal). Will put a note & link at the top of this post once I create the new thread. Thank you everyone for your support and see you guys at the new post if you are considering this build for 3.13. Cheers! New post is up! Link: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3005581 Pinned Announcement - So far the Heist mechanic didn't quite appeal to me so I will not be playing this league. (17th Sept 2020) @lolshie shared his detailed method on leveling the build for the 1st 4 acts which I think is very worth mentioning. Those who are interested might want to check it out here. (27th Sept 2020) He also shared a way to get Rampage without swapping belts/gloves, just using Weapon Swap. It's a bit tricky to pull it off but those interested might want to give it a try with the method here. Thanks for sharing all these buddy! (23rd Dec 2020) This is not really an announcement but more of me being curious about something and a bit of showing Elemental Hit was a popular choice for Hiero Class for the Flashback league. In the current Dec 2020 Flashback league, the 2nd highest number(Day 2 onwards) in terms of skill used for Hierophant Class is Elemental Hit. Here are some pictures to show the numbers:
Day 2 Flashback
  To show that all the Elemental Hit are 100% Totem based, here is a picture filtered by Hierophant + Elemental Hit 
Day 5 Flashback
 To show that all the Elemental Hit are 100% Totem based, here is a picture filtered by Hierophant + Elemental Hit  The passive heat map shows that all the Elemental Hit players were using this tree.  I notice about half of the players were Korean Names, make me wonder if there was another Korean Youtuber/Twitch Streamer etc who maybe suggested/played this build as a competitive starter or something. If anyone who is aware of something like this, can you private message me as I am quite curious. Thanks. Would love to say thanks to him/her. :) (10th Oct 2020) The most commonly asked question is definitely "What should I upgrade?". I decided to create a list to act as a handy reference. Interestingly when I tried to post this update, I found that even Part 2 of the guide has reached the 50,000 word limit per post! So I have linked that new Section to a new "Part 3" of the guide for now. Which brings to the question that is asked like once every new league, which is whether I have plans to create a new post for this guide. I might create a new Post before 3.13 Launch if I can spare the time(A very big factor) to continue updating this guide as I see not much point to create a new post if I can't maintain it. So no guarantees for now. (25th Sept 2020) Path of Building still doesn't have full support of all the new 3.12 gems. I decided to just go ahead and test the curse by using the suggestions given by @Wallach since I am not sure when the update will occur on Path of Building and didn't want to delay it further. Results: Sniper's Mark > Flammability > Elemental Weakness > Assasin's Mark I have provided 2 options for the both the Single and Double Curse Setup on our Gloves in Section "05. Gem Setup". Option 1 is the same Gem/Curse setup as before this update which is the "Automated Version". Option 2 is the "Maximum DPS" option, which requires 1 more button and manual casting of Sniper's Mark. No change to the Pastebin on Section "07. Passive Tree Preview + POB Pastebin" which is base on Option 1 on the Glove.
Latest Update
(10th Oct 2020) - Added a new Section "26. Upgrade Reference List" in part 2 of the guide(Sorta ;)) (27th Sep 2020) - Edited Possible Gem suggestions on Glove Option 2's Flexi Slot in the Single Curse Option under Section "05. Gem Setup" - Minor edits to the notes on "04. Gear Overview" (26th Sep 2020) - Added two new Sections, "24. Enchantments" and "25. Corruption Tips" in part 2 of the guide ******************** ** First Time Here? ** ******************** 1. No idea what this build is about? Here's an intro to get you started
Build Intro
Concept of Build
Spoiler
High Level Elemental Hit
We make use of a very high level Elemental Hit to gives us lots of base elemental damage to be enhanced on further. How we get the high level Elemental Hit is through Frostferno Helm. As Elemental Hit counts as lightning, fire, cold, projectile and AOE at the same time, Frostferno will grant +4 level to Elemental Hit by itself which means Level 25 Elemental Hit using a Level 21 Elemental Hit Gem. That means it effectively acts like a 6 Link on a 4 Link. Furthermore, with the correct double corrupted implicit on the helm, we can attain a Level 29 Elemental Hit.(P.S. We can get another 2 more levels from Amulet but that will be for later :) ) Converting Cold and Lightning to Fire Elemental Hit chooses between Fire, Cold and Lightning Damage each time randomly. Since only 1 element is chosen each time, and there are ways to make Elemental Hit not choose specific Element through Combat Focus we want to select a specific Element to focus on, in this case Fire, and convert all the unused element's Damage, in this case Cold and Lightning, into Fire. Doing this will give us the highest possible Fire Damage from Elemental Hit. How we do the conversion above is by taking the Avatar of Fire Keystone, which converts 50% of Elemental Hit's Cold and Lightning Damage into Fire. Another 50%(Which makes a total of 100%) of Cold Damage will be converted to Fire through Frostferno's "Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 30 Cold to Fire". And there we have it, a very high fire damage source which we will then use it with Ballista Totem to do all the work ;) Gameplay Description
Spoiler
Put Totems, lots of them(7 Max) besides us and watch them pewpew the enemy at insane speed(Through Quill Rain) while we dodge the enemy attacks. For tougher enemies and boss fights, we will fire some Frenzy shots their way to curse them. :)
Now that you have an idea of what this build is about, let's go through the Pros and Cons. Pros and Cons
Spoiler
Pros + Great Clear Speed - Due to Quill Rain's insane Attack Speed + Optional Single 6 Link - The core build runs on just 4 Links. A single 6 Link is a totally optional Small Min-Max Upgrade later on. + Cheap to get build running - 40c on 4th day of 3.12 league + All Content(Except HOGM) - A few hard map mods(Ele Ref/No Regen) can be mitigated by sextant usage. + Safe Way to Play - Focus on dodging mostly instead of aiming attacks + No Cluster Jewel used - Our path in the Passive Tree offers lots of offensive/defensive options for us thus we don't need to go out of our way(Which is the dealbreaker) to get Cluster Jewel Notables + Visual Clarity - No big screen explosions or tons of minions blocking the view, combat scene is very clear and visible, what is happening can be easily seen Neutral +/- Decent(Not Ez) Boss Killer +/- Totems Playstyle could be a +/- depending on individual preferences Cons - No leech, only life regen via Totems which makes us rely a bit on Life Flasks - Requires 5 specific Uniques so not really for SSF - Not a Tank type build though we do have 5.5k to 6k life on average and a decent amount of Dodge+Evasion(Default Version) or Attack+Spell Block(Iron Reflex Version) - Playing an old bald man might not be to everyone's liking ;) If the above sounds good to you... well, except that old bald man part, and you like a chill and relaxing build that don't need 100 ex(Just 40c and some DPS Passives invested) to be able to play low tier Red Maps, then perhaps this build might be for you :) What Others Say About This Build(Long List)

Spoiler
There are two versions of this build
- Evasion + Dodge Version (Default) - Armour + Block Version (Experimental)* *Glancing Blow got nerfed in 3.12 so Armour + Block Version might not work as well as before. I labelled it as experimental for those who feel like trying it out. This guide is written base on the Evasion + Dodge Version. The info on what to change to convert to the Armour + Block version is written on Part 2 of this guide(Look for "Iron Reflex Edition"). Overview In terms of setup, both version are mostly the same except in three areas as follows: 1. Equipment - The Armour + Block Version uses 1 specific Unique Flask and Quiver, plus an additional Unique Jewel 2. Passive Tree - About 14 Passive Points differences 3. Gem - 1 different Gem These two versions can be changed easily between each other due to the minimal differences. Optional Modifications for more DPS For those who would like to push their DPS further, you can check out "31. "OneShotKill" Edition" for optional modifications to the build. Before we continue further
Spoiler
Now, I would like to highlight something before we continue:
Essential and Important Items for this build: This build requires 3 Specific Unique Items to begin working as follows: 1. Combat Focus (Crimson) Unique Jewel 2. Combat Focus (Viridian) Unique Jewel 3. Rain of Splinter Unique Jewel Purpose of the 3 Items Combat Focus(Crimson + Viridian) - To force Elemental Hit to do only Fire Damage Rain of Splinter - So that our Totems can fire 3 Projectiles With these 3 items, we can begin playing the intended build although without the next 2 items below, it doesn't really shine, and here are the 2 items which are very important to the build: 4. Frostferno Unique Helm 5. Quill Rain Unique Bow Purpose of these 2 Items Frostferno - To achieve a high level Elemental Hit thus big DPS for us Quill Rain - For the insane Attack Speed which works well with Ballista Totem Note: If you are playing standard, make sure Quill Rain shows "30% Less Damage". If it shows "50/40% Less Damage" on the bow, thats a legacy one and those are terrible. I would recommend only to start using the intended build at Level 60 as that is the Level when we can start to equip and use Frostferno. Don't worry, there is a leveling guide section that covers using Holy Flame Totems(HFT) from Level 1 to 60 and no Passive Tree respec is required when switching to Elemental Hit. Other than no respec, the other reason to use HFT for leveling is because there is an added Fire Damage to Spells(HFT is a spell) vendor recipe for weapons which add tons of Damage(Plus we can use 2) and that makes leveling very smooth compared to using Elemental Hit. (All explained in the leveling guide) Now that you know what is required, time to begin! :) Please proceed to "04. Gear Overview" below which is the start of the Main Content and continue from there until "11. Mid-Tier Equipment Details" and then jump to the Abyssal Jewel Section at "23. Ideal Non Cluster Jewels". The rest are optional reads at the start but I would highly recommend to check them out later on when you play the build more. P.S. There's a Table of Content below for reference 2. Know and familiar with OP's build - Please continue reading, it contains the info to bring this build up to date for version 3.12. Thank you. ********** ** Story ** **********

" Hierophant is still great, though it seems like Ascendant is a possible choice to go for also. I agree with the other 2, passive tree and some gears need changes. Firstly, big thanks to Lunasicc for sharing this amazing build(Started playing at 3.7) and a guy(KV_AMD_IST_KRIEG) I saw on POE Ninja(No longer visible) build this char differently for my current build inspiration. Lastly many thanks to others who threw in their various ideas in the thread replies which enhances the build. Thank you! I usually don't post in forum. Below is what I tested for myself during 3.9. The purpose of me writing/sharing this, is that, hopefully more people can throw in their ideas and make this build even greater as I really love this build! My very early initial testing was base on the DPS from the mouse over. Later on, all are done with POB. Note 1: What I have written is meant for Temporary Leagues, which means I won't be talking about Legacy Items. Note 2: Bosses were buffed greatly in Patch 3.9, there's no more "EZ Boss Killer" or 1 second T16 lair Boss Kill like in the OP Video. Items and Skills used in the video were also nerfed along the way. Note 3: All DPS examples in Section 1 and 2 below are hideout DPS with auras on, remaining are POB DPS. With that said, let's begin :) ********************** ** TABLE OF CONTENT ** ********************** ****** PART 1 ****** ******************* Update to OP's Build ******************* 01.

My "Testing" I did on standard(3.12)
Spoiler
Note: My testing is not based on the original 9.6m damage with super equipment but rather with a decent amount of equipment I already have, and comparing the changes pre and post 3.9. For testing before I start playing this build again in metamorph, I used my standard char. My standard char has about 100k dps before 3.9, but post 3.9 it became 45k in hideout. Proceeded to revamp the passive tree and swapped old bow for a quill rain(No change to other gear and gems), my DPS became 78k Old bow I swapped out for Quill Rain Base on the above, the DPS number seems better overall in 3.9 with the 2 change(Bow + Passive Tree) Pre 3.9 - 4 Totems X 100k dps is 400k dps Post 3.9 - 7 Totems X 78k dps is 546k dps *7 Totems comes from the following: - 3 from Ballista Totem Gem - 1 from Ancestral Bond(Passive Tree) - 1 from Watchtowers(Passive Tree) - 1 from Panopticon(Passive Tree) - 1 from Pursuit of Faith(Hierophant Ascendancy) Beisdes the numbers, playing style is a different one for sure since we can no longer place the totem at range, though in exchange, placement speed is almost instant now and after playing, I must say the "feeling" is much better compared to pre 3.9(At least for me) So all looks good and I went ahead to play this build in metamorph. 02. DPS In Metamorph(3.12)
Spoiler
My DPS in metamorph is currently 91k as can be seen in picture(Sorry can't figure out how to embed image)
(*Over 100k DPS now as of 20th Jan) https://imgur.com/a/0QzxAId 7 Totems X 91k dps is 637k dps Auras I used in picture for References are Grace, Flesh and Stone, War Banner and Precision(Level 2) So much more DPS than my revamped standard char DPS of 546k as calculated earlier above and much much more DPS than pre 3.9's DPS of 400k And this is not yet maxed out yet for me, there are still stuffs like double corrupted Frostferno, corrupted +%Dmg Kaom's Heart, and if I want to go more DPS route, e.g. Double Elemental Damage Belt, one more Opal Ring, Precision Watcher's eye, etc, though I don't really like to buy too expensive equipment(2 digit exalted pricing+++ kind), just my style. I would say with the adjusted passive tree and gear, 55-65k hideout dps now is definitely possible on budget gears and that should be better compared to pre 3.9 budget gear DPS 03. Gear Changes(3.12)
Spoiler
*These are what I am using that is different from the original build suggestion
Big changes Bow: Quill Rain - The new Ballista Totem seems to get more Damage and scales better from fast attack speed, thus Quill Rain fits perfectly. Amulet: Marylene's Fallacy - A Cheap Amulet which does lots of DPS because of it's very high Critical Multiplier % number. To get the maximum DPS out of it, we will need to use a Diamond Flask which is at the same time, also the best DPS Flask for us. Culling strike on Crit is another nice thing to have on the amulet especially when combined with the very Fast Attack Speed from using Quill Rain. * With this change, there is no more shock from Yoke of Suffering so I use Summon Skitterbot for the Shock * For Anoints, please refer to Section "06. Anointment, Pantheon, Ascendancy, Bandits" Quiver: A rare with ASPD, Crit Multiplier, Life, Elemental Damage with Attacks (Accuracy is good too, and Can go with penetrating Arrow Quiver for the piercing if we need) - I choosed a rare quiver over +1 Totem Skirmish because I value the affixes from a rare. According to testing results, a rare quiver gives more overall DPS from 7 totems compared to overall DPS from 8 totems with Skirmish Quiver. That said, Skirmish is still decent as a budget option till we get a good rare quiver. Glove: A rare with ASPD, Accuracy(Tier 1 if possible since Glove gives one of the highest), Life and some resist is good. - Tombfist doesn't give anymore Attack Speed now so a rare glove with the above suggested affix works much better than a Tombfist. Also using a rare give us more Gem sockets, which we are already very tight on due to using Kaom's Heart on our Chest Slot. Smaller changes Boots: I went for a Hunter Influenced Boot with Projectile Pierce 2 Additional Target instead of %Totem Damage boots so I can save investing in Piercing Shots in the Passive Tree and have flexibility in which Quiver I use. - Alternatively for piercing we can go for Projectile Pierce 1 Additional Target craft on Gloves(Need an open Prefix) or the Poacher's Aim Unique Jewel(Weak, Desperate option) if we can't get any boots/quivers with pierce. - It's possible to roll both Totem Damage + Projectile Pierce 2 Additional Target on a Hunter + Shaper Influenced Boot. Though I haven't seen one on the market for sale yet and I am not a crafter, usually I just buy my equipment. No significant changes for gears on the other gear slots. ***************** ** Main Content ** ***************** 04. Gear Overview(3.12)

Requirements - Whispers of Doom Anoint on Amulet or Awakened Hextouch Support Gem Level 5(126 Int Required) - Alternate Quality version of Frenzy from Heist that provides 1 Additional Projectile(Or Additional Projectile from Bow/Quiver's Corrupted Implicit) Whispers of Doom Anoint is much much cheaper compared to the gem but we will be missing on the DPS from Shaman's Dominion anoint which is pretty substantial. Gem Setup Gem Setups are the same as Single Curse except the Glove Slot. As with the Single Curse Setup, we have 2 options for the Glove as follows: Option 1 - Automated Casting of both Curses Pros - 1 Less button, Both Curses are cast when your Frenzy shots hit an enemy Cons - Less Damage, requires some source of Int to reach 155/159 Glove(4 Linked) - 1) Anomalous Frenzy (The Alternate Quality version from Heist that provides 1 Additional Projectile at 20% Quality) 2) Hextouch Support(Level 5 Awaken version if not using Whispers of Doom Amulet Anoint) 3) Flammability 4) Elemental Weakness** - Anomalous Frenzy with Hextouch for easy casting of both Flammability + Elemental Weakness on the enemies and getting Frenzy Charges **A Level 21 Elemental Weakness requires 159 Int. We get 93 Int from the default Passive Tree, a Lapis Amulet's implicit provides 36 Int(With 20% Attribute Catalyst) and a Bench Crafted 30 Int on one of our rares(Except Belts) will give 66 Int together which makes a total of 159 Int to support a Level 21 Elemental Weakness. Option 2 - Manual Casting for one of the Curse Pros - More Damage Cons - 1 More Button and you have to cast Sniper's Mark yourself Glove(4 Linked) - 1) Anomalous Frenzy (The Alternate Quality version from Heist that provides 1 Additional Projectile at 20% Quality) 2) Hextouch Support(Level 5 Awaken version if not using Whispers of Doom Amulet Anoint) 3) Flammability 4) Sniper's Mark - Anomalous Frenzy with Hextouch for easy casting of Flammability on the enemies and getting Frenzy Charges. - Sniper's Mark will be casted manually Notes on getting the correct Socket Color
Spoiler
1. *Important* Depending on the item base you use for the Gloves and Boots, it might require up to 3 off colour sockets, this could be quite hard to obtain. I recommend watching this video which shows how to get off colour sockets using Jeweller's Orb which is much cheaper compared to using Chromatic Orbs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCXZkv7E9tE 2. Quill Rain is has a low dex requirement which means it's very easy to roll off color on it. When attempting to get the 3 red colour, the best way is to use the Chromatic Orb 1 by 1 on it. For a corrupted one, we will use the 1 Guaranteed Red Socket Bench Craft. 3. For Frostferno, either Chromatic Orb 1 by 1 or 1 Guaranteed Red Socket Bench Craft give the best odds to get the 2 Red 1 Blue and 1 Green needed on it. 06. Anointment, Pantheon, Ascendancy, Bandits(3.12)

7 Totems EV(Default for this Build)
*EV = Evasion https://pastebin.com/KkUnCJ3J Note: Gem Setup on Glove in the above pastebin is base on Option 1 in the Single Curse Option of Section "05. Gem Setup"
Skill Tree Preview
 - This is the Default Setup for this build for 3.12. - Lethal Pride(Akoya) Timeless Jewel is at the bottom center to convert Iron Grip Keystone into Chainbreaker Keystone. - With the above Passive Tree, Rage goes from 50 to 0 in about 13 seconds after activating Berserk. From 0 back to 50 its about 7 Seconds assuming not doing anything(i.e not hitting anyone by firing frenzy shots) Considering Berserk's Cooldown is 5 seconds, the rage regeneration of 7 seconds is very near it which means not a lot of downtime outside Berserk's 5 sec Cooldown and that is very nice. - The Passive Tree above is only for up to Level 95, which means there are 5 Passive Points unallocated at Level 100, refer to Point 7 in the next Section "08. Passive Tree Progression" for info on options available to allocate these 5 Passive Points. - For those encountering Mana Issues placing the Totems after taking Chainbreaker Keystone, I would recommend crafting "Non-Channelling Skills have (-9–-8) to Total Mana Cost" on one or both Rings(Requires an Open Prefix). This should help alleviate the Mana Issues. Lethal Pride Info We should be looking for a Lethal Pride with the following: Commanded leadership over (#####) warriors under AKOYA Example The name, AKOYA in this case, will determine what Keystone will replace Iron Grip, in this case will be Chainbreaker As for the numbers, it determines what Additional Mods the Notables in the Radius gets. We can reroll the number using a Divine Orb to change the Additional Mods in Notables but do note that it will also reroll the name which has a total of 3 Possibilities including Akoya. Note: Its probably a better idea to buy Lethal Pride Jewels to test and resell immediately if the rolls are not ideal compared to rolling them with Divine Orbs when looking for a good Lethal Pride. Here's a list of the best Additional Mods that can be added: - 10% chance to *Intimidate Enemies for 4 seconds on Hit(A Must Get Mod if 2 Passive Point away) - 5% chance to deal Double Damage - 20% increased Totem Damage - 5% of Physical Damage from Hits taken as Fire Damage - 4% increased maximum Life *Intimidate is a debuff that causes the affected target to take 10% increased attack damage.(Multiplicative Damage) Other Decent mods: - +20% to Fire Resistance - 1% of Life Regenerated per second - You take 10% reduced Extra Damage from Critical Strikes - 12% increased Totem Placement speed Note: In the original POB, +skills on amulet(Other item slots are fine) is not working and not being reflected so the actual DPS should be much higher. No issues on PoB Community Fork. 08. Passive Tree Progression(3.12)
Spoiler
Passive Tree Progression below is base on leveling a new character with Holy Flame Totem till Level 60(Earliest we can equip Frostferno) then we will switch to using Elemental Hit with Frostferno.
1. Go for Ancestral Bond Keystone straight (Quite direct path no variation here) so we can start casting 2 Holy Flame Totems. 2. Go for Avatar of Fire Keystone. Note: This is for Holy Flame Totem, if you are using Elemental Hit, you might want to postpone getting the Keystone till you get and socket both Combat Focus Jewels 3. The most boring part, establishing the main path in the Passive Tree. Go down all the way, then to the right, then up, taking all the Strength + Dexterity passives until you reach Acrobatics and Phase Acrobatics and take them. Meanwhile while you are doing point 3 above. 3A. When you manage to get a Rain of Splinter Jewel, go for a Jewel Socket to socket it in. 4. Now we will be preparing to get ready when we can use Elemental Hit with Frostferno at Level 60 so we will be going for Panopticon and Watchtowers Notable Meanwhile while you are doing point 4 above. 4A. Go for 2 Jewel Socket, ideally a few levels before Level 60 so we can socket in the 2 Combat Focus(1 Crimson and 1 Viridian) when we convert to using Elemental Hit with Frostferno Helm at Level 60. Note: For the 4 Jewel Socket we will be taking base on the final Passive Tree - Viridian Combat Focus Jewel can be socketed at any of the 4 Jewel Socket. - Crimson Combat Focus Jewel should not be socketed at the Jewel Socket besides the Fervour Notable as it will not work if it's socketed in there. It can go into any of the remaining 3 Jewel Socket. 5. Now it's time to take all the Life and Defensive Passives to increase our survivability. We will take these first 5A. Thick Skin Notable 5B. Wind Dancer Keystone After which we will go for the following Life Notables Purity of Flesh, Barbarism, Golem's Blood, Bloodless, Herbalism, Juggernaut Notables. Pretty flexible which notable you get first, above is a possible order if anyone wants one. 6. Now that our survivability is taken care of, it's DPS time! Take the DPS Notables in this order: 6A. Lethality 6B. Acuity 6C. Lava Lash 6D. King of the Hill 6E. Master Fletcher 6F. Farsight Above Order is based on the DPS gained per Passive Point to obtain the Notable. Meanwhile while you are doing point 6A to 6F above. 6G. Go for the last Jewel Socket if you have already gotten Lethal Pride(Akoya) Timeless Jewel, after which, place the 4 Unique we are using, Combat Focus(Viridian), Combat Focus(Crimson), Rain of Splinters and Lethal Pride(Akoya) in positions as pictured below.
Spoiler
Lethal Pride will convert the Iron Grip Keystone into Chainbreaker Keystone which we will then go for so we can start using Rage with Berserk Gem. 7. We will now have 5 Points Remaining, and there are 3 options possible for them 7A. If the additional Mods added to Savagery, Vigour and Cloth and Chain Notable Through Lethal Pride Timeless Jewel is a nice one, e.g. one of the following: Offensive - 10% chance to *Intimidate Enemies for 4 seconds on Hit(A Must Get Mod if 2 Passive Point away) - 5% chance to deal Double Damage - 20% increased Totem Damage Defensive - 4% increased maximum Life - 5% of Physical Damage from Hits taken as Fire Damage We can consider going for them. *Intimidate is a debuff that causes the affected target to take 10% increased attack damage.(Multiplicative Damage) 7B. Going for a Jewel Socket, in this case, the one besides Point Blank Keystone if we have a good Precision/Grace Watcher's Eye or we don't have a Stygian Vise for the Dual Blind + Taunt Abyss Jewel yet. For other Rare Jewels, unless it's a Triple/Quadruple Critical Strike Multiplier Base Jewel, it's better to just go for the next Point 7C. 7C. If there is no access to decent options for both points above, we can go for Heartseeker Notable and some 5% increased Maximum Life Small Passives. * 7A and 7B can be done during Point 6. above if we have access to them(Lethal Pride or Watcher's Eye) earlier. Feel free to adjust anything above as your need requires.
