Intro & build description
As any totem related builds, this one is pretty safe and clears maps at moderately fast pace while being semi-MF oriented. Build shines in efficiently clearing maps for currency. Downside is, it’s not a great boss killer due to single target damage and increased boss life introduced in 3.0 expansion. Build is meant for people who like to play it safe and constantly make good money while mapping. As for boss killing, we are now in fast-paced map clearing meta, 80% of playerbase doesn’t kill bosses anyway because rewards are underwhelming after you have completed your first kill map bonuses.
Build Pros
- Totem build
- Very safe
- Great clear speed with extra projectiles and pierce
- Semi MF build, which means you will acquire more rares/uniques/currency
