Totem Crit Or Dmg

admin
End-game viable Totem build based on the most popular Templar's Ascendancy class - Hierophant

Updated for Patch 3.8

The Best Crafty Guides by Odealo

Holy Flame Totem summons totem that fires a stream of flame at nearby enemies, dealing fire damage to them. Damage from the totem deals physical damage converted to fire damage. Each totem also creates consecrated ground around it that also makes allies standing on it immune to curses. Totem range is 100. For 150 crit damage it would be: extra 9.000 dmg divided by 2.5 (100% non critical hit + 150% crit damage) equals 3600 bonus damage. So this 30k dmg ability would most likely do 33.600 damage instead of this 39k expected damage. You could improve this number if you could reach this 30k damage with more atk and less crit dmg cause you would.

Estimated budget: medium

-Updated for Patch 3.8

Holy Flame Totem is a reworked version of old school Flame Totem skill gem, with plenty of changes made to it. New version fires 3 projectiles instead of one, creates Consecrated Ground around the totem, which makes you immune to Curses and converts Physical Damage to Fire, which combined with Avatar of Fire provides full Physical and half of other elements conversion to Fire, which scales insanely well with all additional Damage to Spells sources. This build has great clear speed as well as single-target damage and great survivability, thanks to Totems taking most of the incoming damage.

1. Gameplay

Hierophant Ascendancy is the best choice for this build - not only provides a lot of Mana that works really good with Mind over Matter but also grants Power and Endurance Charges generation. Pursuit of Faith and Ritual Awakening grants insane damage for Totems and allows us to summon an additional Totem.
This build has great survivability thanks to High Life and using Mind over Matter, which converts Damage to be taken from Mana instead of Life. As for the gameplay, you place your totems and watch them burn all enemies with holy fire. This build is also recommended as a League Starter because it requires no unique items to farm even Red Maps with ease. With few investments, it's possible to kill all the Guardians and the Shaper himself.

-Added gameplay video

Hierophant is currently the most popular Totem-class in Path of Exile. It offers very high bonuses to Totem Damage which allows various Starter and budget-friendly builds to be based on this Class. Our Quad Frostbolt Totem Hierophant is no different. This build offers very solid clear speed, decent single-target damage, and multi-layer defenses based on Life, Energy Shield, and greatly enhanced Mind over Matter Passive.

1. Gameplay

Totems provide a specific playstyle. You are summoning Totems which deal the damage for you, while focusing on supporting them with Auras, applying Curses, and staying alive. This playing a Totem character may not seem like the most exciting thing, it surely is one of the most beginner and budget-friendly type of builds. If you plan to play Special Event League or participate in a race, Totems are nearly always a viable choice.

Our Hierophant build focuses on defenses, which will allow you to farm high Tier maps and possibly end-game Bosses with comfort. The hybrid version gives you approximately 4,500 Life and 2,000 Energy Shield with Mind over Matter and additional Damage reduction from Hierophant's Ascendancy Passives.

This video was recorded on a level 88 Hierophant. This character was using Cloak of Defiance and random Rares. Shortly after publishing the video, Uber Elder went down, though it took quite some time because of the limited budget and our mediocre single-target damage

Leveling with Totems is very easy. They deal very high damage, allowing you to play safe from a more significant range, and also tank some of the damage. Regarding recommended gear, you should mainly focus on Mana Regeneration, Spell Damage, and Movement Speed bonuses, while all the other items can be random Rares with Life and Elemental Resistances (you don't precisely focus stats related to Critical Strikes and Energy Shield early on).
