Ziz - 3.8 BLIGHT FlameBlast Totem CHIEFTAIN Starter Build Guide!

GEM - ACT - NPC - QUEST --------------------Muling------------------- In this setup you will need to Mule with a Witch to quest: The Caged Brute which we will provide a gem setup to get there. Freezing Pulse Freezing Pulse - Act 1 - Nessa - Enemy at the Gate Arcane Surge support - Act 1 - Nessa - Enemy at the Gate You can also pick up a second quick silver for making the game slightly more faster from Mercy Mission. However the gems you will be muling are as follows: Arcane Surge support - Act 1 - Nessa - Enemy at the Gate Infused Channeling support - Act 1 - Nessa - Mercy Mission Spell Cascade support - Act 1 - Nessa - Mercy Mission Orb of Storms - Act 1 - Nessa - Breaking some Eggs Increased Critical Strikes support - Act 1 - Nessa - The Caged Brute Flame Dash - Act 1 - Nessa - The Caged Brute These gems are being Muled to make your leveling experience feel smoother. -------------------Leveling------------------- A: 1 - 12 Fireball Fireball - Act 1 - Nessa - Enemy at the Gate Arcane Surge support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate - This was muled from the witch Combustion support - Act 1 - Nessa - The Caged Brute A: 12 - 28+ Firestorm Firestorm - Act 1 - Nessa - The Sirens Cadence Spell Cascade - This was muled from the witch Combustion support - Act 1 - Nessa - The Caged Brute Controlled Destruction support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate A: 28 - 38+ Flameblast/Flameblast Totem Flameblast - Act 3 - Clarissa - Sever the Right Hand Combustion support - Act 1 - Nessa - The Caged Brute Spell Totem support - Act 1 - Nessa - The Caged Brute Ignite Proliferation support - Act 4 - Petarus and Vanja - The Eternal Nightmare (Buy from other player or mule on Witch to get early) Burning Damage support - Act 3 - Clarissa - A Fixture of Fate Deadly Ailments support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate *TIP* It might be better to wait on transitioning to flameblast until level 38 when ignite proliferation support becomes available. To get Ignite proliferation immediately at level 38 you will need to either mule a Witch all the way thru Act 4 - The Eternal Nightmare or buy it from another player in a trade league. Alternatively, you could use Elemental Proliferation Support by killing Hillock with a Templar to transition to flameblast earlier and waiting to get Ignite Proliferation Support until Act 6 - Lily Roth - Fallen from Grace. B: 12+ Scorching Ray Utility Scorching Ray - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate Infused Channeling support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate - This was muled from the witch Faster Casting support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate *TIP* You can also get it by muling your witch just a little further to Act 1 - Nessa - The Siren's Cadence but this gem isn't terribly crucial early on. C: Orb of Storms (Elemental Overload Proc) Orb of Storms - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate - This was muled from the witch Faster Casting support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate Increased Critical Strikes support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate - This was muled from the witch D: Auras Anger - Act 3 - Clarissa - Lost in Love Malevolence - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate Enlighten support - You will need to find or trade for this G: Golem of Choice Lightning/Ice/Flame/Stone/Chaos - Act 4 - Petarus and Vanja - Breaking the Seal M: 4 - 10 Dash or Frostblink Dash - Act 1 - Nessa - Breaking some Eggs Frostblink - Act 1 - Nessa - Breaking some Eggs M: 10+ Flame Dash Flame dash - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate - This was muled from the witch Faster Casting support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate Arcane Surge support - Act 3 - Siosa - A Fixture of Fate - This was mueled from the witch Culling strike support - Act 2 - Yeena - Sharp and Cruel --------------------TIPS--------------------- Try to make sure you cap your resistances whenever possible (75, 75, 75) You can see this from the defence Panel on your character screen if you press the default key C. For everytime you kill Kitava your resistances will be reduced by 30 for a maximum of 60 reduced resistances after you kill Kitava the second time. Get an Instant (Seething) Divine Life Flask as soon as you can. This flask is very important. Try to get as much life as you can on any piece of gear where-ever you can, for examples of gear, refer to the items section and click the drop down menu between League start and End game. With the new Vendor recipe coming into 3.8 you can also create wands with fire damage to spells which will be helpful if an Ashcatcher isn't available. To explain what a Vendor recipe is, it is when you sell multiple items to a vendor (NPC) to get a specific outcome. In this case: 1x Alteration Orb + 1x Blue Wand + 1x Ruby Ring -------ANOINTING AMULET----------- There aren't any particular notables that are mandatory to anoint, but there are a few rather good choices for different purposes. Damage: Breath of Flame This is just pure damage and a sizeable amount at that. Cast/Movement speed: Fleetfoot with 5% move speed, 10% cast speed after using a movement skill, and 20% increased cooldown recovery of movement skills, this will make the playstyle feel much smoother, with lots of uptime on flame dash. Life, Flask: Herbalism 10% life is sizable, and the extra healing from life flasks means better panic button heals. Life, Regen: Golem's Blood Also 10% life and a fairly chunky regen which will get scaled up by Tasalio, Cleansing Water nearly all the time. Flasks, Life: Profane Chemistry Only 6% life, but a sizable 30% increased life recovery from flasks makes for even better panic heals, and the 8% increased flask effect will squeeze out just a bit more juice from your flasks.
