still playable indeed. There will be no POBs

Playing this as my 2nd toon boss killer----still very effective. 15 mill dps POB with my current gear.

I did a couple different things----since Fortify now doesnt work with Shield Charge I opted for flame dash and Phase run(super handy).
Added CWDT lvl 1 and Wave of Conviction ...procs all the time and an extra -15 to fire.

I used Iron Fortress as armor---bigtime str+armor+ and gives me 50% to block.
Crown of Inward Eye is a huge dps+armor+hp boost.
Alberon's warpath is a poor mans fancy shoes.....the runspeed isnt too bad with phase run almost always going.
Astramentis is a good cheap way to boost stats.
I really wanted to figure out a way to add in Herald of Ash----but need an enlighten 4 to still have enough mana.

Would just like to add I am playin this build again for this league after taking a break for a while and I am getting 13m DPS per totem with around 1700 STR. Still viable after all of these years and all of these leagues.

Good to know

Guess I found my new league starter then

Edit : I was trying this build before the new league and I thought that you couldn't reserve more than 1 aura with tukohama fortress, but you can actually, eternal blessing disables auras which reserve mana not life.

Maybe it's obvious but I'm new with totems builds :p

Safe to say no changes to this league? Super excited to try this!

i am pretty sure the build still work even though i haven't updated it in quite some time

Hi

With the new Archnem mods i feel a bit squishy.

(I am Using BLS, Iron Fortress, Crown of Eyes, Iron Will in SC Trade)

Dmg seems to be fine but if you would put ~20 Passive Points into additional defenses what would it be / what would be the best?

-Put those just into Str and HP to get even more HP and DMG?

-Put them into Resi / Max Resi and trying to get 85-90 Max Fire Res and use Melding of the Flesh because we already have good Physical mitigation.

-going to the right side of the Tree from the Scion Life wheel to get 100% Spell Suppression.

-To get Spell Block is not a good idea with Iron Fortress, is it?

-Don't bother at all. Put the 20 Passive Points into Dmg (Might help on bosses too, but sometimes I can't complete a Map because I lost all Portals. Not sure if more Dmg really helps in Maps If some Archnem Rares kill me in a juiced T16 Map before the totems are set up / activate. Maybe in some cases it would help as sometimes the Rare that killed me may already be dead)
