Searing Touch Templar
So I've been really wanting to make a Fire Templar using Searing Touch. None of my characters have satisfied me yet so I'm just gonna roll this. I based this build around 1-2 builds from the forums, but it's my own.
The idea is to be able to fill the screen with fireballs at a rapid rate while maintaining mana for 3+ auras and the spammability of the fireballs. Molten shell for more dps, Flammability for lowering resists / more damage, and skeleton totem for added defense. Planned Build:

Planned Skills: 4L Primary Single: Fireball + Faster Casting + Fire Pen + LMP/GMP 5L Primary AoE: Fireball + Faster Casting + LMP/GMP + Fork + Fire Pen 4L Secondary: Molten Shell + Chance to Ignite + Elemental Proliferation + Fire Pen 4L Auras: Reduced Mana + Clarity + Discipline + Haste 5S/3L Buffs/Debuffs/Misc: Blood Rage, Flammability, Spell Totem + Summon Skeletons + Minion Life If you end up having a bunch of leftover mana and/or high enough regen you can potentionally just take out the skeleton totem, and add in some more auras. Determination + Purity are good picks. Bandits Normal: Help Oak (+40 HP) Bandits Cruel: Help Alira (+4% Cast Speed) Bandits Merciless: Kill them all (+1 Passive Point) Required Gear: Searing Touch Staff w/ 4L or 5L Cast speed Rings w/ mana regen if possible Spell Damage Amulet w/ mana regen if possible Either Pure Armor or Armor/ES gear is best. Thoughts? | |
main thoughts- play more
build is kinda broken and definitely suboptimal. issues are, weak fire damage nodes, poor link nodes (taking weak 8% nodes with no target node), eldritch battery (you have a tonne of int and little defence plus are only running 3 auras..) | |
" What could I change to make it better? |
