[2.2] 10k ES CI Dual RF totems (2ex build with ez atziri kill)

The idea of this build comes from the super tanky CI firestorm
"
and life-based dual RF totem
"
[2.2] Milky's Dual Righteous Fire Totems [cheap, SC/HC, UberAtziri, T15]
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1510181


For this build, you basically just place two RF totems and one Searing Bond totem to burn everything around. If necessary or you are bored, throw down a few lightning traps to activate elemental equilibrium. For bosses or if you are really bored, cast orb of storms to gain 40% more dps.


Easy 10k energy shield with 1k+ energy shield regen per second
Spoiler

Core uniques:


The Whirling blades is too useful

Due to the nature of CI, you will get stunned 50% of the time if the damage reaches certain point, no matter how high your ES is. So with it, 100% stun immune. (trade off 500-1k es)

PROS:

Spoiler
-Easily achieve 10k ES (if not counting the 5L, the cost of the build will
be below 1ex)
-1k ES regen
-No reflect
-No mana issue (with only occasional use of one mana pot)
-Pretty much face-rolling normal Atziri, even if it's the first time you try Atziri.
Very good practice build for prep uber Atziri
-Stun immunity
-Chaos damage immunity ('cause you know, it's CI build)


CONS:

Spoiler
-Mediocre DPS (relatively)
-Mediocre clear speed due to the nature of RF totem, you'll hate monsters that
running around too much
-High Dex requirement (140 dex)

Gearing:

Int is always good.

Helmet:

Any 300+ ES will do. It costs around a couple chaos.
Best in slot would be the uber Atziri mask, the Vertex.

Chest:

Any high ES chest will do. I bought my 650es chest with 2 chaos. Six socket and five-link it yourself. Cost on average of 1 exalt. (note: you might get lucky or really unlucky. Praise RNGesus.)

Belt:

Aiming for high res and ES. Strength is kinda good too. I bought mine for a couple chaos.

Rings:

Res, ES, Dex, Int. Cost can vary widely.

Amulet:

Eye of Chayula. Stun immune. 5-10 chaos.

Shield:

350+ ES. Cheap ones only cost 1-3 chaos. With good res and es rolls, it varies.

Gloves:

Again, high es rolls. Try to find 150+ ones with some res. 5 chaos+.

Boots:

30% movement speed is recommended. And due to movement speed is a prefix, any 150 es boots with some res will do. 5 chaos+.

Weapon:

Daresso's Passion. 1-3 chaos. The whirling blades is too good to pass.


My Gesr:

Jewels:

Spoiler
x2

Flasks:

Spoiler
At least two quicksilver, one with immune to chill/freeze.
One mana pot with remove bleed.


Bandits:
Normal kill
Cruel kill
Merciless Kill

For normal Atziri:

Spoiler
Just remember to have your bleed removal mana pot. If you want to be extra careful, bring one ignite removal pot.


For uber Atziri:

Spoiler
Don't have the ballz to do it yet. But in theory it's probably doable with only 10k ES. For flasks, I'd bring 4 quicksilver with at least one ignite removal (may not even need it since small flameblast probably deal 15k dmg) and one mana pot with bleed removal. Should be okay to dodge everything even when uber Atziri is about 20% faster. Please do let me know if you kill uber Atziri with 10k ES.

If some guys with deep pocket, you can try to push your ES over 15k+. Then you probably can even eat small flameblast w/o dying. (950+ chest, 600+ shield, and god tier rings, etc)

Looks good i'm trying it. what about ascendancy though?
There is a unique jewel that you can use that increases your rf totems life by 30% which is a HUGE increase to damage.
thx for being honest. I was thinking the same, clearing speed must be a problem, and RF damage indeed looks mediocre. other builds have legendary spreadsheets that show millions dps.. but then you see the video and the damage is visibly mediocre. on t op of that... RF aoe is really tiny.
