[2.4] Hierophant) Arc Totems [Cheap Tank]

Disclaimer: Hypothetical Build.

Not sure if Malachai's Loop '20% chance to gain power charge on hit' works with totems.
If it does, either drop it or incorporate discharge/cold snap to rid ourselves of stacks (risk being shocked).

Passive Tree

The goal of this build is to make a cheap tank that is safe to play and

Hierophant is interesting because it's currently one of only three ways to improve the mind over matter effect, which is one of the easiest ways to mitigate damage in the game. We are going to maximize this effect using fairly cheap items.

Spirited Response will prevent us from running out of mana and keep our MoM effective. Tree has space for 2. Combined with our mana regeneration rate and 50% reduced skill cost, mana shouldn't be a problem.


Items:
Doryani's Scepter -> Void Battery
Malachai's Loop
Aylardex
Doedre's Damning
Spirited Response *2


Setup:

[6] Spell Totem, Arc, Critical Multiplier, Cast speed, Lightning Penetration, Added Lightning

[4] Cold Snap (non lightning spell), Faster Casting, Curse on hit, Conductivity
(-100% resistance with elemental equilibrium)

[4] Leap Slam, Fortify, Increased Duration, Faster Attacks

[4] Enduring Cry, Rallying Cry, Increased AoE, Increased Duration
(could drop the supports, but I feel they help rallying cry and allow you to carry a larger buff longer)

[3] Lightning/Chaos Golem, Blasphemy, Enfeeble
(swap for temporal chains or even elemental weakness if you feel damage taken is manageable)

[3] Lv1. CwDT, Vortex, Increased AoE
(personal favorite)

If you get a void battery, may want to keep doryani's on swap for fortify.
