[3.17] The Warchief | [Facebreaker] Ancestral Warchief | Uber Boss Farmer | Beginner -> Expert

Dear guggelhupf
at first, THANK YOU SO MUCH for this awesome build and all the effort you you put in! I've played Totem Builds since the last 3 leagues, but this one is almost the greatest i've ever played! I finished your build to lvl100 as 4th place in Chieftrain. I love it!

But with some bosses i come a bit in struggle. It feels like the dps output can be even more. As I look forward to beat Uber Elder, I would realy happy if you can take a look at my Items/PoB. I tried to get the maximum out of the items with max rolls and alot 21/23 gems.

Maybe you have some ideas, on what things i still can make an approvement for dps / substain. Only thing i changed was helmet to deidbellow because with 40% more dmg taken i died a couple of times.

the first i notice is that you can take some steel rings, these would give you a great dmg boost

okay I'm done with elder

this is the easiest and simplest build I've ever played. very chill and smooth. absolutely recommended.

Here as you can see I don't use loreweave because it's just too expensive and dps is not something that I lack. I bought this 6L chest with all the colors for 2ex.

Also I'd recommend to fit at least some mana regeneration. I have mana cost reduction on the tree and 60% mana regeneration on a ring. Before that I was using "The Shaper" node on the tree.

Also take notice my tree is different - I don't path to Gladiator and instead grab all the nodes nearby, and most importantly the huge wheel with ele damage. It's better.

Running blood magic is just literally worse than not running blood magic. Tukohama shield would be a choice if we wouldn't have an option of the shaper shields with the +1 totem, nowadays it's just outdated, both in terms of dps and hp and utility as well. If you want to run blood magic, grab a shaper shield and the nodes for +20% hp.

I also run Punishment, cuz it's good and I don't have the perfect elemental weakness gloves.

And I have decent boots with +12% dodge which is nice.

Overall this entire gear was like 5-6ex tops, which is nothing. I never farmed anything, this is just from regular drops I've accumulated just from filling the altas and chasing the elder once. I probably have more currency in my current stash just in jewels and whatever.

I want to try brand+totem. Should be much faster and smoother leveling->mapping before we reach boss content.[/quote]

Is this decent for legion in red maps? Anyone got some vids?

Would it be viable to use a Redblade Banner?

Hello everyone, I am level 44, but I only have ~410 DPS! I am really struggling to level up, rare monsters take at least 30 seconds to kill!
And the fact I can only have 1 totem right now really sucks. Is it normal to have such low DPS in this level? I got 5 Links instead of 6 tho, but I doubt it would make a huge difference.

no this is NOT normal, u guess you are using a weapon together with facebreaker (this will disable the dmg boost from the gloves). also check if you not accidently play with protector totem instead of the warchief one. and you need flat phys dmg on nearly all your gear (this + facebreaker is where the dmg comes from). to get the seccond totem you need to pick "ancestral bond". overall i highly recommend to read the whole build again carefully

Why not use herald of purity and/or herald of ash in the Blood Magic build for more damage?

you can only use one aura because of mortal conviction and other things like heralds would reserve your life. that would be a very bad idea
