PoE Vitality, Zealotry, Totem builds

need some help deciding on how to continue build. ive been running arn's for the past day but ive got a stygian that sims higher, im too dumb to understand the benefit of arn's vs a stygian. is it just the chance to proc the triple damage? the stygian also helps me keep righteous fire on longer. any advice on what to craft/go for next is welcome. also i know im missing two gems, i actually dont know what/how to fit anything else in i added two gear sets one with the arn's and one with the stygian vise set up

I can get someone to help me with my Fire Shockwave Totem build? So the weapon/shield has 35% phys as extra fire while cast linked to searing bond totem (70% extra). Skin of the lords, +2 wand, +1 shield, +2 amulet gets me lvl 33 shockwave totem. I could eek out another level with lvl 4 empower or two with awakened. With my setup I have max 1 searing + 6 shockwave totems. with all totems up, tooltip dps shows 250k per totem so about 1.5m? I'm sure it's a little higher if I could properly check on pob. I honestly had higher hopes with the gear. There are some gems that still need leveling,

A few weeks a go I was theorizing what I wanted to play for the next league, and I made this thread: I had a set or requirements for the build, mainly a totem playstyle, high quality of life, and zero-to-hero possibility in terms of scaling. Eventually I landed on Hierophant as an ascendancy, simply because it provides the most straightforward access to damage and totem placement speed, and because it has a good position on the passive tree. This allows me to focus more gear into defens

TLDR I'm theorycrafting an Ascendant Shockwave Totem character and don't know how to get a decent amount of damage (let's say 30M), while retaining high levels of tankyness and mobility. Any help or suggestions are welcome. Unoptimized pob: (   Background I like to play allrounders. What I mean by that is that I like to play a build that I can scale up to do all content somewhat comfortably. Speedclearing maps in less than a minute or deleting bosses in 3 seconds doesn't particularly interest me, but I like to be able to do 98% of map mods comfor

Trying to make a cold conversion Totem Trap build on Occultist. Looking for feedback on this POB, wanting to make it super tanky for bossing while still dealing the broken totem damage. 6l traps in bow + 6l auras in body armor is the idea. Cold conversion: 40 from mastery, 35 from Watcher's eye, 25 from crucible node. Budget - max 40divine POB: Some thoughts: \-Heatshiver(?) \-Hatred scaling \-Loreweave + transcendence \-Immortal bloodnotch tech
