[3.8 BUFFED] Demi's PURE STRENGTH Righteous Fire Chieftain! SUPER BUDGET (TO START) ALL CONTENT

I have this helm, and I'm confused as to the best gems to put in them. Between arcane surge and swift affliction or what I have in them currently. Could someone help me out and let me know what would be best.

First of all thank you so much for keeping this build alive :)

I have a small tip for extra survivabillty and also more effective cursing.

Instead of a CWDT setup, I am using a:
Cyclone - Curse on hit - flamabillity - Life gain on hit.

This wil lalso make for a more ingaging playstyle :)


With regards :)

This build still relevant anymore? I tore it up when I played a few leagues ago, but I notice no update for 3.9

Also, it's been awhile, what were the links to all of the leveling trees and when to spend them etc?

With the changes to the life and resistance of bosses early acts and rare/ magical monsters, i dont recomend using this build as a build start in 3.9. You will strugle a lot to do damage with any other skill and will take foraver to kill bosses.

I don't get the point of using Molten Shell with Elemental Equilibrium. Molten Shell counts as a Hit, which makes the enemy resistant to Fire, and even at max CWDT it still procs all the time, especially in this league.

3.9 viable?

rf seems to be out the window this league

I just want a safe delve to get the crafting

I've been running this build this league(3.9) and so far I've thrown roughly 2 to 2 1/2 exalts at it and it is still just as good as in other leagues. The only thing I'd change about the build is a simple addition, on your amulet I'd work towards enchanting the passive Breath of Flames through blight oil enchantment. This gives +10% Fire Damage Over Time Multiplier and 20% increased Fire Damage. The only downside of this is that golden oil, one of the ingredients for the enchant, is a bit expensive.

Or you could go for Growth and Decay for the regen 1% of life per second.

Growth and Decay has the same dmg output as Breath of Flames but on Growth and Decay you will have 1% more liferegen per second.

You can also go for Double Curse (Whispers of Doom) it's more DPS if you use a Witchfire Brew + Flammabillity/Ele Weak.

I dont recommend using Whispers of Doom because you need to use a Witchfire Brew + Flammabillity to have an advantage of this & in some fights, mostly bossfights you wont have your flasks up and being based on flasks is bad.

You can also go for a Witchfire Brew without Double Curse if you dont use a Curse but using no -Res Curse with a Witchfire is less DMG compared to a -Res Curse & without a Witchfire. (Always calculating vs Shaper)

Btw Demi forgot to use a 6% Life Node instead of a 5% Life Node.

You can also go for more Life, if you dont take the DMG Nodes like Breath of Flames & Divine Judgement.

I'd probably also go for Chieftain if I am able to get 90% Phys Reduce infight & enough Chaos Res.
