impact6126: this guy is literally one of the most based poe build guide creators always giving proper credit and not blowing out of proportion how good the builds are
lytylisius: Thanks for the shoutout man, and good to see totems getting love!! Definately interested to see where you go with it!
AllBor: Energy shield warrior, sounds completely fine
wheresmygun: Wow I can't believe this guy made... a TOTEM build !?
kkplx: tatiantel is a GOAT when it comes to making totems work every league.
loomynarty: Another scaling vector to consider is to use a sceptre in the weapon swap with a shield, using the skill Resonating Shield to break armour while having active block and having mods like Allies in your Presence deal X% increased Damage, additional accuracy, attack speed, etc. Spectres also give you a fat amount of spirit to work with too.
EDIT: Offensive stats such as Allies in your Presence deal inc damage have no effect. Instead I recommend getting high max mana, inc spirit, and mana regen as those stats you can't seem to get enough of.
kelshake: One suggestion I can make is to use resonating shield instead of armour breaker, as it allows you to move while casting and does not require aiming or hitting something while keeping stationary, also it has active block so you can block from the front. The downside is obviously you break less armour, but with the amount of levels the gem has, it is still decently fast
void2412: I copied your exact setup but I got flat damage on my weapons instead of levels for extra dps but I do no damage, please send help. I need this build so I can solve world hunger.
ponjix9429: This is a very good offensive totem build, Poeguy has a very good Defensive totem build aswell
longdh1710: Much appreciated for the shoutout.
wReeed: cheers man! ty for giving the other creators a credit!
JX531: Between how demotivated I am from the current state of softcore economy and crafting, and then feeling some level of excitement again watching videos like this, I honestly can't wait for a league reset at this point.
Feels like everything after campaign has just been a downhill experience for me so far.
kaylemain2006: The weaponswapping tech is awesome! I wasn't sure it was snapshotting like that or not. Stealing all of this, thanks!
MopsioWorld: Hello, a food for thought:
From my experience Earthshatter totems do have the biggest single target damage out of all totems, because upheaval support and gem quality give you max 9 spikes per totem, with enough AOE scaling (from passive tree) they're simply "oneshotting" the content during those warcry bursts. It makes gearing a bit simpler, because you can completely ignore accuracy rating by going RT and just sticking to it. Then you can use shockwave totems to just clear maps and earthshatter totems might be used only for those big bosses.
For Earthshatter totem supports try Ancestral Warrior Earthshatter Upheaval Brutality Heavy swing whatever support fits you the most (I do not have 6link so I cannot give it proper testing) but it's something worth to try!
Have a good evening!
PerseusKarvasius: gemling is the way 8k life, 1000str, 2k life regen, blood magic, melee skills at 41 or is 40max idk more quality to gems EZ Clap
ChakoExile: Great vid! I’ve been running a Blood Mage version of this build for a while now (also have a rough guide up). It’s a bit of a quirky setup since I’m currently rocking 0 elemental resists. That wasn’t the original plan, but this version ended up performing much better than I expected, so I decided to make it my goal to clear everything in the game with 0 resists. Almost there!
coolcolj24: from my testing in my build, Weapon elemental damage for attacks mod on the weapon also applies to the totems. So if you use some of the supports that add extra ele damage, and each weapon has the mod, it boosts a bit better than using brutality
Veal296: Hey great video man - I had a question about how you verify that mace damage buffs and 2H damage buffs from the skill tree don’t buff totem warrior damage? Is there a way you’re testing it to know for sure that those buffs don’t apply?
Oscillascape: People are sleeping on Gemling Legionnaire for totems. Ways to deal with mana. Decent dmg scaling, quality is very good on shockwave and 1 skill can be massive depending on your budget. For example he could be doubling his dmg with 1 skills right now. Also running any skills without stat requirement is nice QOL. Overall, I think a very competitive ascendancy for this archetype.
lokhaxz803: Best melee build is to spam totems and stand as far away as possible lmao. love The Vision
jacek2300: I dropped the plus 2 to shockwave totem diamond. Im warbringer with 2h and shield. Is the 2 to shockwave totem okk?
brofst: MTGA? Didnt expect an mtg Arena reference in my PoE content
ofechner: The benefit of going Warbringer is not the armor stuff. It is unkillable thanks to Turtle Charm. You block and gain live with a certain shield. Works great!
Countlesshours: How to properly play melee, ES and totems lmao what a joke
jevrap: your block chance during maps is constantly going to be bricked since you are swapping to 2, 2 handers to drop totems, this also makes all your block nodes super low value, during mapping you would basically have to give up 7 gem levels to actually be blocking which is a shame, hopefully there will be a shield unique that works well with totems
