PoE Trickster, Fire builds without Chaos Inoculation

Which build would be better as a league starter? I'm leaning towards Hot DoT Trickster but I'm unsure if totem health will be an issue. Gear in both is a filler so don't be concerned about not being resist capped or not having sufficient attributes, though I am intending to use their bases.
