What should we replace the fortify gem with? Considering that we can't get any fortify anymore unless our totems are doing it

Came here to ask the same question. Since Fortify isn't going to trigger, what's the best replacement?

Tukohama fortress good for build?

I think no, cause of blood magic on it.

Since Fortify has been changed this league, I think to replace Fortify with Shield Charge, what I'm going to do is the following:

Ground Slam/Earthquake
AoE Support
Hextouch
Flammability

This will allow me to lower fire res on mobs with quite a bit of area. And it will also allow me to replace fire penetration in the 6L setup with something (undecided as of now)

Thoughts?

i would change fortify with flame dash and flame dash with inc duration

In your intro to facebreaker with the huge wall of text you said that ele dmg with attacks does not work with FB. But you still use it in your 6l setup. Same thing I guess with ele focus. Am I missing something?

(even though that old fb guide is from 2013 xd )

Not sure what added bonus that would get me? Flamedash is already included in the build. There's no way to proc Fortofy outside of causing damage directly.

this way flame dash is linked to life tap which means you have a higher mana pool for your totems and the inc duration adds good to the enduring cry

for me i would not remove shield charge because i like it as a movement skill. flame dash just add the option to jump over gaps/walls

gotcha.
I ended up keeping Shield Charge and faster cast and linking to hextouch and flammability. This allowed me to toss down totems, then SC through the mob cursing them all on my way through. Seemed to work pretty well.

Haven't run into any issues with mana pool and having mana to place totems (yet... I just stated mapping)

Assuming I keep this new setup, trying to think of a good support gem to replace fire pen with in the 6L setup
