In this PoE 3.26 league start guide, I showcase my early progression with a Scorching Ray Totem Ascendant build for Secrets of the Atlas. From Act 1 to early maps, I cover the leveling process, gear choices, passive tree swaps, and totem transition timing.

🛡️ Totem playstyle with taunt, tankiness & great QoL

💸 Budget-friendly early map setup (0-10c investment)

If you're looking for a unique, chill (but burning) totem build with strong potential to scale and swap into CI endgame, this might be for you!
