[No longer updated] Pizza Sticks: Flameblast Totem Hierophant

So I am at the last Kitava fight, I have died so far 27 times, and his health went down to around half.

I quit even trying it's stupid. I can't do maps as you have to kill Kitava first.

So at level 70 I'm stuck now?

It was stupid crap like this that had me leave for a year. I thought I'd try again.....

stupid stupid stupid

How is this build supposed to beat that Boss?

Which are the most desirable mods on jewels, for the GC variation? I'm guessing the most important one is #% increased totem damage, which other mods should I go for?

Assuming your crit chance is maxed out, or pretty close to maxed, the best jewel for straight DPS would be a cobalt with crit strike multiplier for cold skills, crit strike multiplier for elemental skills,
crit strike multiplier for spells, and either +Phys dmg %, +Totem dmg %, or % cast speed with cold skills. These are the 4 highest for DPS in Path of Building, the last 3 are so close in +DPS that any of them are good, but having jewels with % life would be nice as well.

I plan to play GC totem but not sure I'll be able to afford a 6L. Do you think a 5L Soul Mantle work for T16 map at least?

I switched to the GC spider mantle with double kikazaru and self flagelation setup just recently and it is AMAZING! :)

the only thing im not sure about is how to improve my dps. since we are using so many uniques we can hardly upgrade our gear, as belt/helmet/gloves/necklace are the only source for resists. are there any other uniques that would increase our dps? upgrade to divinarius?

Whether or not Divinarius increases your dps would depend on what you're using now. Divinarius is a decent starting weapon though since this build is all about spell dmg and crit chance. That doesn't mean there aren't better weapons though. In theory, the best weapons would be plat/gold/copper kris that are crafted with essence of misery for cast speed. You'd want spell dmg, spell dmg/max mana, and +lightning dmg to spells for prefixes. Then, spell crit chance and crit strike multiplier for suffixes. Good luck getting all that though.

Yeahh, i use 5l and i can make maps tier 15/16 very easy

This is what I'm rocking now. also I'm using a slightly different skill tree build. currently at 110k total dps in PoB and that is without onslaught or diamond flasks. With Atziri's flask it jumps up to 135k. I need to figure out how to get some more life, but so far taking hits from the 40% MoM out of my 2k unreserved mana pool and I pretty much never get one-shot. Doing tier14 maps at the minute.

my current gear:



skill tree similar to author's build.
89lvl
4,2k hp
1,3k es
2,2k mana
offence in hideout without anger:

defence:

How can I improve it? What should i change?

Thanks, do you mind sharing your character or pastebin?

Hi guys,

I am currently on 93 level, Glacial Cascade version. It is quite OP.

Been carefully leveling from 91 to 93 on Maps from T11 to T15 inc some crazy affixes.
Did die only once on 91lv. You basically cant die unless you do not spawn totems in front of you.


Done Shaper around ten times now. There were many dead less runs. It's easy with this build.
Done Uber Atziri twice so far. Died once on one run due to Trio Bosses.

The clear speed is good. There are some builds where you can kill fast but at the same time you gotta stop and pick drops. With this you dont have to stop at any time. You just spawn totems and run for the drops.

I will strongly suggest to get a 21/20 Glacial Cascade. That one level from 20 to 21 gives a massive damage.

I have also went for Glacial Cascade damage conversion in my helmet so I could pass on Phys to Lightning gem which gave me an extra slot for Controlled Destruction.

My flasks are not done yet. But they were good enough up to now inc Shaper and Uber Atziri.
