Returning to game--Level 81 totem witch needs help please!

I haven't played in almost a year. Needless to say, I am lost as far as what's really good/smart/viable nowadays.

Previously I was a EK totem witch build. I did ok farming maps and such. Some boss mobs were hard to kill and I was a bit of a glass canon but still was fairly decent.

I mainly play solo so prefer a solid solo build.

So I logged back in to find my skill tree totally reset. I would like to stick with a totem build if possible or something that can solo exceptionally well.

Any advice and links would be greatly appreciated!

Here's my current gear...

i see u 2 have a +29 / 11% iiq perandus

Stop staring at my crotch. :)

Help a brotha out people!

The cast speed penalty for spell totem is now multiplicative and no longer additive, so the dps will be lower. Dual totem builds are still viable though i wouldn't call them op (like fork once was). I never tried EK on a totem so i can't tell how viable that is nowadays. Looking at the witch builds list i guess lightning spells like arc and storm call are pretty popular. I tried flame totem and incinerate on a spell totem and both are very good to play especially with the three dragons unique (only use it when playing ambush/invasion as it is too expensive in standard).

I don't mind swapping builds but I have been out of it so long, I have no clue about all the stuff I missed and I don't have a huge bankroll to re-equip for full gear.

I have been debating starting from scratch with a new character just to get the feel of everything again.

I don't want to waste my money and respec into a role that I suck at so I was hoping to stick with totems since I got one of these with leveled gems.
