Templer - [3.17] Wallach's Hierophant Freezing Pulse Totems (No Further Updates) - Forum

" dejuvenate schrieb: " dejuvenate schrieb: Havent played totems in 2 years and considering making one for starting heist. Could I ask a very obvious question? Why fp over for example FBolt? Fb has higher damage and has no dmg dropoff that fp has. Or am I missing something? Could I get an answer to this please? Didn't see your question - the main reason is simply that in practice, Frostbolt is a much slower skill than Freezing Pulse. It also has 1% lower base critical strike which actually matters quite a bit in terms of scaling critical strikes. The base damage difference isn't really enough to overcome these two things, especially the projectile speed.	Beitrag von Wallach#2877 am 18.09.2020, 00:41:34 Diesen Beitrag zitieren
Wallach, I want to thank you so much for this amazing guide. Question, is the "leveling guide" on page 1, pretty much up to date? just want to ask before I start leveling tomorrow..... thanks so much!	Beitrag von Mentoya#7912 am 18.09.2020, 00:59:21 Diesen Beitrag zitieren

It was just updated for Harvest; the only thing you might want to consider is grabbing Flame Wall (which should be available at the same time Holy Flame Totem is in Act 1). It's a completely new skill so I can't totally vouch for it yet, but it might be a nice leveling tool to drop across your Holy Flame Totem, at least for a while. Not something you'd leave in the build, though. You could also consider grabbing Sniper's Mark while leveling (either from Siosa in Act 3 or Lily in Act 6) but it's not really going to be needed while leveling.

Wallach, thank you for the update video. I gotta say, I'm a lazy person and didn't read too much through the patch notes, but your explanation made it all super clear. :) Appreciate that!	Beitrag von coffeecrank#5433 am 18.09.2020, 10:30:15 Diesen Beitrag zitieren
Hi, Great guide. I am really considering this as my starter in HC. Do you think it is viable ? Thanks	Beitrag von Robert2657#1091 am 18.09.2020, 10:30:52 Diesen Beitrag zitieren
Not recommended for HC. Whilst freezing everything is a great defensive layer, the lack of phy mitigation makes you vulnerable to the occasional 1-shot.	Beitrag von IcedInferno007#3962 am 18.09.2020, 10:50:23 Diesen Beitrag zitieren

Hey guys, the new Soul Mantle has this reworked line - "Inflicts random hex on you when your totem dies, with 80% increased effect". Is this a nerf to double kikazaru or what? means we cant negate the hexes using double kikazaru and sanctum of thoughts?	Beitrag von crimsonraziel9#6256 am 18.09.2020, 15:27:35 Diesen Beitrag zitieren
