PoE The Ivory Tower, Templar builds

Hey, so this came to be very spontaneously, I just tinkered with this build for most of the league getting every little info about what other people were doing with it as there are no updated guides on this. Then I finished my crucible shield tree and was proud enough to post it on the main sub and quite some people were really interested in this build. So thanks to those people as well as to builds of the good ol' times I crafted this forum post for the past couple hours. Feel free to check it out: [

Hey there, Path of Exile community! I'm excited to share my theorycrafted CwC BV Hierophant build with you all. I've been using poe.ninja as a reference and I'm feeling pretty good about the overall viability of the build.

Reducing Brand Duration ================== So this is actually the easy part. Wintertide Brand is the shortest duration brand at a base

The beams fire from the centre of the dome and dont go through walls or obsticles, so open maps work better. GV can fire 10 times per second but only hit the same enemy twice per second, and these cannot be sca
