Hey, I just had a quick look at this build.
Some ideas I thought of for consecrated path:

-what about taking avatar of fire(6 points shortest way on your skill tree) for full conversion? (maybe xoph's blood)
I know you do a full ele conversion with hrimsorrow, but maybe a full fire conversion opens up more room for effective scaling? I rly don't know if this is true :D
-If u stay Terminust Est a Kaoms heart could be rly nice (fire damage and Life)
-since consecrated path is considered a movement skill also, Bron's Lithe could be a nice damage boost, but also a decrease in defense most likely
-Alira could be nice for the crit multi, but this is not that big I guess
-since consecrated path is more or less a fire skill, Chieftain could be a viable option, maybe a better one
-Heartseeker Cluster, Twin Terrors and Fencing can provice some nice extra Crit chance/multi, last two only for dual wield
I hope this helps developing your build/guide and my ideas are not to bad :D
Looking forward to see your opinion and playing the build myself :)

Hi there, thanks to working that out... I thought already about most of your suggestions... so here my thoughts:
> Avatar of Fire: according to PoB we would lose damage with it.
> this build converts from physical to elemental damage and we don't use anything to make fire stronger than any other element (cold, lightning) i also don't want to do that because I want to have three possible main skills.
> Kaom's Heart: yes a decent option
> ALira: yes a decent option but I really need the passives
> Chieftain would be a very viable option for CP but according to PoB I would lose about 50% damage but there is a CP Chieftain guide out there looks pretty solid.
> Heartseeeker Cluster: yes definitly really nice for this build, also twin terrors for endgame gear with high physical dmg main and statstick

The thing with Inquisitor is... dmg normally never is a problem but survivability is more a challenge :P

We have a 100% chance to create consecrated ground with CP but gift from the above also gives us a lot of damage so I guess it is a decent option. I prefer more life and resistances on rings.

Why not to use Pious Path ascendancy for CP? You will be constantly on the conc ground and recieve buffs from it. Constant immune to elemental ailments is quite strong.

For me Static Strike works really good now (with Chain support and 6link needed), faster clear then with consecrated path in maps. Boss damage is fine as well, t3-4 maps so far, everything dies pretty instant.
Runnning Wrath + Herald of Ash now.

Need good gear though and merc lab, then the build starts going off!

Just a few notes to OP about his PoB
Gotta recheck your jewels, right now you got 2h jewels equipped with 1h weapons.
Running HoA - HoP and hatred with enlighten lvl 3, leaves you with enough mana for 1 cast of either CP, or leap slam, so can't really run 3 buffs there. I equipped arctic armor instead for the slight phys dmg red and fire, since porcupines are a pain in the ass.

Imo just not worth it for only the immunity to ailments. the other nodes gives double the damage. Maybe I would use it when I would play hardcore but for softcore not worth it without using MoM.

Yeah you are right... I tried a bit out... normally version is for a terminus est. I will overwork the PoB file. Yeah 48 unreserved mana is a bit low :)

np! Just so you know that the dmg of PoB can be even higher ;) I am currently using a terminus est and hitting 370k shaper DPS. So I've got lots left to upgrade and enhance, but I like my rings. Why did you include the marble amulet btw? Purely for the bleed?

Hi! I'm playing cons path Templar as well!

I've gone with full fire conversion with ngamahu's axe.

The build power and speed is really impressive.
Life leech about 2k a second with only about 4500 life.

Being immune to the elemental ailments really opens up flask options.

Only running cons path and holy relic and already have almost 50K tooltip dps.

Leveling was a little slow but once you get cons path to over 2 attacks per second it really starts to feel good. I'm at 3 aps for now, aiming for 5.

I plugged cons path into path of building on my standard 5 attacks per second cyclone character with good gear and changed it over to Templar. Dps was higher on Templar with cons path vs cyclone. And cyclone gave me a 10 second minotaur kill so I cant wait to see this build with good gear!

Bloodgrip is just a awesome budget amulett. High life regeneration, high phys.dmg to attacks, 100% increased life recovery from flask is massive and helps with bleeding on top.

Your version is interesting but very different from this build :)
