[1.3 BOTW ] _*-*Avatar of Fire Shockwave Totems Build*-*_ [VIDEOS][REVISED]

Hello

I don't understand the third node mana related you say to attribute for using the death's harp

It's says " mana and mana regen" but the node after Deep Thoughts is just a mana node so...

Also can you tell me the leveling order in the skill tree ?

A big thanks and congratulations for your amazing build ;)

I started playing this and I have a couple questions

how would you level this? I started using dual totems at around lvl 30 but it's tough and I have very low survivability.

and wouldn't it be wiser to use Rain of arrows + curse on hit + 2 curses, it costs nearly no mana and applies both curses at once
I just want to say nice build man, amazing originality. Goodluck on improving it further!!

wouldn't using a massive phys damage weapon give more dps than the bow?
phys to lightning any good?
How does "Spell Echo" sound for the 6th link on the shockwave totem?

The results are i just one shot Lady Stormflay

that wasnt a one shot she was hit by one totem before she was even visible.
- updated thread using death's harp bow instead of doomfletch
- fixed critical strike calculations
- added lowered resistance / penetration calculations
- added bandits
- updated passive tree
- updated title
- added new atziri video

It was a one shot. I have one shot her again.

I would say increased critical damage would be better for the 6th link. Spell Echo would probably show better tooltip DPS but if one cast doesn't crit with spell echo the second one won't either. Plus the burning damage would be reduced by 10%.

No it would not be good. If we used that gem the following would happen:
50% of physical converted to fire (blackgleam)
50% of physical converted to lightning

We would be doing 50% fire and 50% lightning and no physical. When we activate avatar of fire the following would happen.
50% of damage would be fire
50% of the 50% lightning damage converted to fire.

We would only be doing 75% effective damage.

The physical damage on the bow does not affect physical damage done by shockwave totem at all.

I would recommend leveling with a combination of glacial cascade and one shockwave totem.

It is not fun to switch to dual shockwave totem until you have Blast Radius, Amplify passives, Carcass Jack armor, and a leveled increased AOE gem.

Once you have huge AOE on the totems the build starts to shine. It is definitely NOT fun to level with dual shockwave at level 30. I will update the guide with a leveling progression section when i can.

Mana and mana regen is the node 5th node near the starting tree of witch (its 8% increased mana/10% mana regen).

I will update with a level 40/60/75 passive tree when i get a chance. Thanks for the positive feedback!

how much dps u have?

with conc. effect tooltip DPS = 21,500 DPS
with increased area of effect tooltip DPS = ~12,750 DPS

I would highly recommend reading the calculations sections because with two curses, fire penetration, and passive tree buffs the effective DPS is much higher.

I just did a respec on my witch to try this out, it looks really cool.

Have you considered using a "Curse on hit" setup with the bow? Since you only use one 5 link you could run:

Split arrow - chain - curse on hit - flammability - elemental vulnerability

This curses 15 enemies for basically no mana.
