PoE builds similar to Scorching Ray Totems Hierophant (Update #3, new tech and pushing 40M+ DPS) [PoE 3.16]

One of my all-time favorite builds is back baby! At face value SR totems seem like an absolute meme, but I've been playing the build every other league or so since 3.15, and have a mildly successful build series about it on my YT channel from 3.16. It caught a solid nerf in subsequent leagues due to various changes, but with the latest change to Hierophant's Arcane Blessing ascendancy notable, and the curse changes from last league, it's absolutely back. The general idea is to get 4 Scorching Ray totems and 9 Searing Bond totems through the use of Phantasmal Searing Bond, which grants an ad

The Build The endgame setup should look like this: You max out on your Scorching Ray totems and then add as much Searing bond bois as you can alongside them without replacing the Scorching ray totems.

So here's my build for the league. I don't want to say it's min-maxed, but it's pretty optimistic in terms of gear... I'm hoping harvest crafting is still OP, but if it isn't, it's easy to make this build into a heavily nerfed budget version. Some notes... -2.5million Righteous Fire DPS with a massive 47 AOE radius (45 without helm enchant). No concentrated effect. Socketed in a double influenced Shaper/Elder helm (I'm not sure if this is possible to craft since I haven't needed to make an item like this yet). A cheaper Elder helm can be used. -7.5million Scor

Hi I absolutely love this skill and the Elementalist version of it with the golems and poured my heart and soul to push it and would love to make it so I eventually am able to clear and beat all the game's content including the pinnacle bosses(at least the non-ubers). After asking around a bit in the community it became very apparent to me from hearing a lot of doom-saying from others regarding this type of build for endgame content -- I have never gotten to pinnacle bosses before and so I have no clue what is expected from a character in terms of stats to acomplish going through them; In

I've been farming T16 maps pretty easily following Tatiantel2 storm burst 3.20 guide. Pretty much, I would like to push the build a lot more since I am in soft core trade. Any advice on skill tree changes or gear changes is certainly welcome. My PoB: Tatianel2:
