thanks for the massive guide, might of missed where you said it but for league starts are you using cyclone/ consecrated ground for leveling pre 40 or just relying on holy flame totem?
Hey 1UPedU,

Thanks! I'm glad you like it! For this build, I used Holy Flame Totem to help sustain RF as early as possible. I'll be removing Holy Flame Totem for 3.9 though. You can still choose to use it while levelling, which I'll likely do, but patience with skills like Molten Strike (which is getting a buff), Sunder, and Tectonic Slam will be what's primarily used until RF can be sustained. It's the RF life. BUT I do switch to Cyclone as soon as my natural mana regen can handle Cyclone's links without mana flasks...which will be much easier to do without a mana heavy totem also being cast.

Does that answer your question or did I misunderstand your question?

Hello. Thanks for your detailed guide!
Can your share your leveling gem links with us? I tried this build, but while leveling we get very very few damage nodes on passive tree, some boss fights are really time-wasting. I use sunder and holy flame totem, but I am not familiar with melee so I don't know if there's other leveling combo's.
Thanks fangfang830617! You're very kind.

Levelling is tough with RF. I'm not a fan of "needing" to respec a bunch of points in a guide. If I was playing personally sure, but for a guide to require lots of respects...I don't like it. So how I levelled with this guide wasn't fancy. It was honestly just patience. I'll be removing Holy Flame Totem in 3.9, but it'd be a great secondary skill to level with (Consecrated Ground). The skills I use while levelling are Molten Strike (which is getting a buff), Sunder, and Tectonic Slam. But like you said, there are few damage nodes to help the levelling path. So you're on the same path that I took. Ancestor totems help damage a lot too. Also, I absolutely love Purifying Flame. It'd be awesome to have it at the beginning of the game, but even starting to use it in act 3 (if you're using this as a league starter) suites this build well. You're levelling as I did though. It is slow...it's the RF life.

That being said though, Bosses are being improved and are starting to be a constant focus of GGG. So I may have to have a suggested levelling tree to respec out of. I'll have to see how this league goes. At least Molten Strike got buffed for 3.9.

But to paraphrase, I did the slow route as I hate respecting. But if you used Molten Strike and an Ancestor totem you'd be doing well.

Does that help?
