Path of exile templar build upgrade#

Be careful for Elemental Reflect though if you’re using a Trigger Wand, remove the Frost Bomb as that will reflect its damage (which is fine if you keep it level 1, otherwise it might kill you). Otherwise, there’s nothing that’ll annoy you too much. No Regeneration is annoying, but can be dealt with if you bring a Mana Flask. – Can feel a little squishy at earlier stages of gear / levels Map Modifiers to be Avoided – Requires Soul Mantle which can be annoying for SSF – This version of the build pretty much caps out at 12-13 Million DPS + Tanky through MoM and Hierophant’s MoM Cons + Scales well enough to kill every boss in the game, cheaply

+ Viable in every scenario, be it SSF or HC + Feels like a lot of fun to have 5 Freezing Pulse Turrets

The gear swaps required to pull this upgrade off can be found in the gear section. This offers you a way to scale in to the late game and easily push towards 15 million DPS. It replaces the Reflection at the “cost of a ring slot”. Since you have 6 Totems, you could practically get half of that and remain over 4 Million Shaper DPS on mostly gear you could pick up in Blood Aqueducts.Īll of this got further amplified by the introduction of Viridi’s Veil.

Generally, the build packs about 1.3 Million Damage per Totem. Overall, some pieces in the build might look a little bit expensive, but I’m including those just for those people who like pushing it a tad further. When I played the build, my shield slot gave me 100 Maximum Life, an extra maximum totem (or a 20% More DPS multiplier), 9% increased Cast Speed and 70% Increased Spell Damage, making it outperform any way, shape or form I tried making Reflection work. I stand to believe that a build that has incredible recovery and survives one-shots as well as this build does, especially on a build that has so much mobility as this one (because the totems do all the work for you), does not need more than a 10 million effective boss DPS to completely trivialize the game.īy not going the Atziri's Reflection route, we’re opening up our shield slot and you can do pretty crazy things with that. Even if some iterations of this build exist that use, for example, the very expensive Atziri's Reflection, they usually just bump up the damage of this build from about 7-30 Million Boss DPS to about 9-35 Million, with about triple to quadruple the investment. If you’re looking to spend 200 Exalted Orbs on a build, I would advise to look into something that scales a lot better off of gear. This build guide covers Freezing Pulse Totems like I think they should be played, on a relatively small budget, not too insanely min-maxed, and as a tool to just kill everything fast. Nowadays, however, it has gained a lot of popularity because it excels at getting stuff done easily, cheaply, and early! Obviously, Flameblast, Ignite, and spell totem were changed and the skill lost in popularity! Freezing Pulse totems were looked at as more of a meme-build, which was only done with tremendous amounts of currency to make it look decent. While this might sound horrible in the current state of the game, Flameblast Totems were considered the most broken thing to ever have happened to Path of Exile when they were popularized. One of the most iconic builds in PoE is definitely “Pizza Sticks”, which is slang that was used for Flameblast Totems. Totems have gone through a lot of iterations over the years, and other skills were popularized through skill balances, Ascendancy releases, and changes of mechanics.

One of the most classic build archetype in Path of Exile definitely are Totem Builds. However, should we wait to push our guides until the program received its final update, we’d never be able to get you this content before the league hit. You can be assured that you can just follow that iteration of the Path of Building without any issues. You might encounter PoB’s which are outdated but that is either because you’re looking at a Path of Building that was released before the contributors of this program got around to patching it or leveling tree, which hasn’t changed. If a guide says it was updated for a specific challenge league, you can be assured it was actually passed through & adapted for that specific patch.
