PoE 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 saw in a post something about knockback totems for the current league mechanic. So I messed around on PoB and got this The idea is for the artillery ballista to hit lots and fast, covering a wide area to pull as many units to it as possible. Then i just go fast and hope that my evasion will dodge one or two rouge projectiles while i can take towers. It might just suck and feel bad but i would just like to know if anyone can confirm if the artillery ballista with its aoe hits will pull enemies towarss them?

Act 1. Nothing can beat the Rolling Magma + Flamewall combo in Templar skill choice, so stick with it. Do not try to kill Merveil with Storm Brand + Arc. Just don?t. Forget about Stormblast mines, Orb of Storms, and Lightning Tendrils. Do not take the Runebinder keystone before you kill Merveil. You won?t be able to use the Holy Flame Totem if you get it. What to do: 1. Kill Hillock - get Rolling Magma. 2. Search both Tarkleigh and Nessa for BB(B) linked. Link Rolling Magma with Elemental Proliferation. If you get 3b linked - you are lucky. Buy Arcane Surge from Nessa and add

tl;dr it seems bad but I'm not that experienced with scaling fire DoT. Damage is simulated using DD corpse life that will provide same exact damage that the totem will. The idea is to use Searing Bond totems which can be scaled through +1 fire gems to increase totem life while also doing fire DoT. Since we're chieftain with 90% res, we use RF for more fire DoT and more spell damage for searing bond. And then we use arcanist brand for flame surge/curse while using scorching ray for infusion/stronger exposure since there's nothing else to do while your totem ign

This build can be built in multiple ways and I dont know which one is best, coz its very dependent on other factors I did not take into account like tattoos etc. PoB covers 3 variations of the build: \- Siege Ballistas - for better clear and average single target \- Artilery Ballistas - for better single target \- Lion's jewel vs Cluster Jewel comparison (some comparison) &x200B; Using Self-Ignite Forbidden Rite on CoC Frenzy we are able to constantly self-ignite ourselves to get 200% increased attack speed via Makou's Embra

My searing bond/ righteous fire chieftain, ascendancy needs work, and ill swap around some stuff if i get some good clusters, but here's my first planned route for the next patch
