Other than enchants (work in progress) and gem levels, anything obvious I'm missing that could be improved? Thanks. Actually no, lol. Even your belt is very competitive with a Stygian. I'm gonna use this as a gear sample because it's exactly what I think it should look like. On your skill tree, I'd swap the Power Charge for Assassination, that should give you a lot more damage. Btw, I just did a quick update on Ascendancy choices and the skill tree. (also skeleton gem setups) Power Charges are really only worth it if you use them with Void Battery or Shimmeron and I barely saw anyone using those. Apep's Rage is a good alternative anyway. Thanks! I actually was using but the shaped belt puts me over 5k hp and still allows me to overcap resists by just enough. Droppedf the power charge as suggested - thanks. Again, thanks for the build - having a blast.	Posted by casper0010 on Apr 23, 2018, 2:48:53 AM Quote this Post
Edit: dumb me quoted the guide again instead of editing ._. (added Atziri's Reflection as linked item) Builds and Guides: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2198879 Last edited by SHEPUUURD on Apr 23, 2018, 5:08:34 PM	Posted by SHEPUUURD on Apr 23, 2018, 5:06:34 PM Quote this Post
Made an update regarding the Wither setups, I've now settled on a Skeleton setup that doesn't feel too clunky. Also added a link to my current character. Builds and Guides: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2198879	Posted by SHEPUUURD on May 8, 2018, 8:47:48 AM Quote this Post
Spoiler Thanks a lot for the great guide. Currently level 90 with it. What should my next improvement of gear be? Just bought a Level 21 DP and 20/20 supports. Last edited by Kirin_kar on May 15, 2018, 3:33:19 AM	Posted by Kirin_kar on May 15, 2018, 3:32:42 AM Quote this Post
" Spoiler Thanks a lot for the great guide. Currently level 90 with it. What should my next improvement of gear be? Just bought a Level 21 DP and 20/20 supports. I'd get better boots. Your current boots are good, but only because they are enchanted. Personally I bought a decent pair and just ran Lab with the Twice Enchanted prophecy until I got either crit or regen. Other than that, a Stygian Vise an Amulet with higher offensive stats would also be an upgrade. I think you can replace the armour craft on your gloves with mana aswell.

Great post and build, very detailed. And do you think wither + faster casting + cast when channeling + summon skeleton would be more damage ? Last edited by sirs on May 18, 2018, 12:27:51 AM	Posted by sirs on May 18, 2018, 12:26:03 AM Quote this Post

Faster Casting only affects the rate at which you apply Wither, not Summoned Skeletons, etc. That said, Increaased Duration gives you about 60% more total stacks on Wither. Faster Casting is only ~33% more (depends on your actual cast speed).

Looking to use this as a league starter for 3.3 With the patch notes up, I don't immediately see anything that would negatively affect this build. That said, I'm a big scrub-lord. Any commentary on the changes? Anything to note?	Posted by Tulos on May 30, 2018, 12:52:51 PM Quote this Post

First time playing totem build. It will be my league starter. I am hyped because of Soul mantle 3D art and Apep's Rage 3D art.	Posted by IrutarI on May 30, 2018, 2:46:17 PM Quote this Post
