Astral Projectors been very expensive last couple of leagues. I've also done Divine Ire totems, you're right, they were awful and clunky.

Amazing at bossing though. Like having 5 Death Star beams hitting the boss.

OK bossing, but the whole point of totems is you place them and boom everything on the screen, move, repeat. They don't do that very well at all.

Haven't seen a streamer recommending Hexblast Ignite Anything yet. So, that either means I'm a genius or an idiot.

Any build that at least aims for some kind of coherency can have enough money thrown at it to kill red elder, shaper, etc
I've proved it to myself many times now. You might not get the cheese or face roll factor but you will be happier and more immersed.
Hell, I got 2nd lvl 100 assassin in Harbinger with a lacerate build while I was employed.

Oh, I meant a competent league starter. Not a "throw money at it until it works" build.

All the same. Just like converting to CI later which many people do. The campaign and t1-4 maps are that stupid easy.
I'm torn between AM Scion type build, Blade Blast Assassin, Cold Dot occ or Ice Crash Jugg. The first two being more dmg, the second two being more tanky (for the multi boss shit).

Well I am doing a GC miner, but I have seen I think it was pathofmath (whoever he is) do a totem build of GC which looked pretty good. There is also my old Ele Hit totem which is switching to use Raider now instead of hierophant for the life leach from totem I think it was (dont hold me to that)

I think Mathil talked about it a bit in his Heist Build Recap vid. He said it was really good and he used it in one of the December event leagues, iirc.
He said it was good but burned out in the endgame, Having said that, they just buffed its damage and with the change to occultist to more chaos instead of chaos dot multi, it should playout better?

Game crashed zoning into tidal island 57k in queue
It's still working through the initial launch queue. I was 12000 (got in line an hour and a half early or so) and am down to 2600.

He was talking about how one of the new nodes applies your regen to ES at full rate but you can also split the damage done by RF between your life and ES while still regening at full rate on both. I don't remember the node or combo that does this, but he was saying that if the mechanic didn't work as they were saying that the whole build would be trashed.
