RAT NUKE SURVIVES

You have listed no quiver. I think you should go soul mantle and get a defensive quiver, rare or unique.

Perhaps even consider getting rare gloves and make do without reverse knockback

God dammit! I knew I shouldn't bide my time with this :D

Hi, I've done the same build but we've had a bit different philosophies on it.

I started out with the idea of using only two RATs and then combining that with the taming for some insane EA damage. At some point I figured it was getting too expensive and went the 3 totem route.

Here's the tree I've been following/planning:

would be taking the end charges and probably the life regen jewel slot approaching 100.

I originally did it as a blood magic build when the EA was relevant but after dropping it I ditched that. The skillgrimmage to duelist area is pretty much for volley fire jewel. The dream jewel for this build exists: life, totem life, ignite chance, knockback.

And yeah it's not the fastest clear, but it sure is amusing :D

Edit: to scale the damage I use both flammability and ele weakness combined with herald of ice also with the three dragons. Herald of ice causing ignites from cold damage procs elemental equilibrium.

Anyone knows how many life ranged attack totem have at lv20？

are you sure totem damage nodes dont increase the 8% reflect?
also just another small thing... the +2 projectile flask will be great (can it stack?)
also have some improvments to the tree.. will post later

also the biggest question... why are you not using Soul Mantle?
50% increase totem life!
+1 to totems !
seem like best in slot, no?

I would definitely use soul mantle if I was sc, however i'm playing hc temp league and its already kinda shitty giving up life on ammy/quiver/gloves. giving it up on chest would be too much, it's definitely the best option for softcore.

I'll take a look at your tree after work, but note I'm using the templar area pathing for spire of stone, whether it's optimal or not I'm not sure. Kind of a work in progress. Thanks for your input, I'll look more into it in a few hours

any news? you also didnt answer my questions in the quote

I can't find it, but Mark from GGG stated that reflect damage cannot be scaled in any way from increased damage, tree or items. Only totem life and cast/attack speed matter.

I also tried 5L sire of shards and it works wonderful. Will provide some videos later.

i think mantle is better than the quiver (that give you only +1 to totems like mantle).
so if you dont have enough life. use mantle and drop the quiver for life + res + attack speed quiver, best solution no? (you gain 50% totem life from mantle)

So question: Why do you go into the duelist area? Why Master of the Arena?

what did you use to level

will try this build with a mantle, as soon as i get a 6L of it, and would take a tree like this for cast speed Passive Tree
