The totem is always affected by your current stats.
It is casting your spells for you.

Really/

From what I understood, it is ONLY your stats at the time of casting the totem which matter.

Strange this doesn't seem to be true, when you gain frenzy charges while a totem is active, the totem doesn't speed up its casting, yet if you lay a new totem down it DOES get its cast speed sped up.

Easy test, go wit hyour dual totem and grab a frenzy skill gem. Put down totem, attack 3 times, put down totem, noticeable difference in cast speed?

That is not the case.

Yes it does.

So every stat for a totem is effected by your own stats, so if you switched items and boosted your cast speed or spell dmg, the totem would get the buff?

So going near and far away from someone with a haste aura boosts/lowers your totem dps depending on how close you are to them?

So if a totem is using righteous fire, it does damage using your health? That's pretty cool.

RF is a bit different.

The totem casts the buff (at your cast speed and including your burn damage increases). The buff causes the totem to burn for its life to itself and enemies around it.

Oh right. That makes sense! Thanks for the reply :)

Hi, new player here.

Regarding Ancestral Bonds, if I have 2 spell totem support gems and both linked to different type of spells, can I summon both spell totem 2 times? or I can only summon only 2 totem at 1 given time?

Thank you in advance.

Not the best place to post it but I'll answer. You can have two totems total, regardless of what spell they are from.
