2. 📈 Key Effects of Increased Totem Maximum (Damage & Survival)
· Increasing the maximum number of totems synergizes with Hierophant Ascendancy nodes, greatly boosting damage amplification, mana regeneration, and life regeneration effects.
· Damage is amplified, and mana and life are regenerated for each summoned totem. Increasing from 6 to 14 totems boosts damage amplification from 30% to 70%.
· Additionally, the Arcane Surge effect applied to you increases by 10% per summoned totem, growing from 60% to 140%. Arcane Surge provides spell damage amplification to the Hierophant.
· Simply placing totems can be seen to significantly increase DPS from 62,000 to 160,000.

3. 🔥 Maximizing Life Regeneration and Righteous Fire Synergy
· Applying 'Rune of Rejuvenation' to Arcane Surge provides additional life regeneration.
· This combines with the Hierophant's 'Life regenerated per second per summoned totem' effect to maximize life regeneration. This increases life regeneration per second from 309 to 1,500.
· With powerful life regeneration, 'Righteous Fire of Arcane Devotion' can be used stably. This skill deals damage proportional to maximum mana/life but amplifies cast speed by 25%, greatly improving DPS.
· As a result, the increase in totems through 'Burning Coil' boosts life regeneration, which in turn enables 'Righteous Fire', creating a double damage amplification synergy.

4. 💎 Tight Gem Slot Management and Gem Setup Tips
· The build's gem slots are very tight, so efficient gem setup is crucial.
· It's recommended to link 'Multiple Totems Support' to 'Burning Coil' to save gem slots. If it's not available, consider crafting it yourself or sacrificing other support gems (e.g., Increased Attack Speed Support, Frostblink).
· For 'Wave of Conviction', gem slots can be secured by reducing links using 'Blastchain Mine Support' along with 'Coin of Intelligence'.
· POB may not reflect these 'Imbue' features, so it's necessary to verify and adjust in-game.

5. 🛡️ Detailed Major Equipment Upgrades
· Several key equipment upgrades are made when transitioning from the starter build to the endgame.
| Equipment | Changes and Effects |
|---|---|
| Helmet (Flame Mackerel) | · '40% of Physical Damage taken as Fire Damage' option converts physical damage to fire damage, improving survivability · Easier damage mitigation through fire resistance · Corrupted implicit can add gem levels or effect levels to socketed gems · Previously used a rare helmet before this one |
| Belt (Sanctified Belt) | · Uses a belt with the 'Assassination' Sanctified implicit (Critical Strike Chance and Critical Strike Multiplier) · Upgrade from the previous 'Stygian Vise' |

6. ✨ Jewel and Cluster Jewel Changes
· Large Cluster Jewels use 'Unnatural Instinct' instead of existing rare jewels to gain various effects.
· The unique jewel 'Lethal Pride' is not recommended for beginners. The DPS difference in POB is not significant, and it requires complex knowledge, which can be detrimental to mental health. Instead, using a simple '30-point Jewel' is more efficient.
· 'Rune of Rejuvenation' is an important jewel that grants life regeneration effects to Arcane Surge.

7. 💡 Life Regeneration Setup Advice and Final Build Specs
· There was a lot of feedback that life continuously decreased when using 'Righteous Fire', so the build creator over-invested in life regeneration.
· Tier 1 life regeneration options and per-second regeneration options were secured in multiple places.
· Players can activate 'Righteous Fire' themselves to check if life remains stable, and then adjust life regeneration options as needed. It's not necessary to over-invest.
· This build achieves approximately 30 million DPS and 150k-170k EHP against Pinnacle Bosses, serving its role sufficiently as a starter build.
