I think with those trap nerfs but arc getting through potentially unscathed, arc totems gonna be a good start

That was what I was leaning towards as a starter or quad AW HoWA Heiro. Once I have key items and some currency I'll either roll another or reroll heiro into Mana Guardian. Either way I'll probably level arc totems because it's too good not to.

I'm pretty much settled on Arc totem Hiero too. I love totems and I skipped out on Incursion so I didn't get to enjoy the Arc buffs yet. If Arc did get nerfed, I'll probably fall back on Glacial Cascade totems.

I just want to add that this is basically my opinion on the situation. Also, having to pick up all that minor currency must get tedious for many SSF players -- right?

Or just pick up whetstones/armor shards to sell for scrolls, and just skip wisdoms. 3x and 2x the pickup efficiency compared to wisdoms!

You think you can defeat ME, Ephraimcopter?!?

You couldn't even beat Assassincopter!!!
Arc Totems are still probably gonna be crazy good, especially with the darkness mechanics.

But I did that for the flashback (in SSF no less) so I'm gonna need to come up with something else.

C'mon patch notes!!

Also yeah there's no way they're going back to level 20 gems when that's the first thing they nerfed about BoR in the first place

Arc Totem Heiro is probably going to be my starter. I got an arc trapper to 90, and a Juggernaut Blade Fury to 88 last league which are both better than I have ever done before.

I am intrigued by the newest minion buffs, but I have played a minion-based character so many times. Ugh, it's hard to decide.

Demi's budget RF build is something I have always wanted to try, too.

Just looking at one node on my arc trapper, for 2 points to get to the jewel node I would pick up:

+37% increased lightning damage
+30% increased shock duration
+10% increased effect of shock
+20 Int
+4% increased spell damage per power charge
+18% increased power charge duration
+40% increased energy shield from equipped shield
2% additional chance to block spells with shields
+16% increased effect of flasks
+4% increased attack speed while dual wielding
+20% increased phys damage while dual wielding
Attack skills deal 10% increased damage with ailments while dual wielding

I guess the only thing to consider is, how much of that is on your pathing already because that jewel would excel at getting you a bunch of bonuses for cheap in an area you normally wouldn't path to.

Only place I really like it is the scion jewel socket next to harrier if going caster. A bunch of spell damage, crit multi, cast speed and movement speed

The witch jewel socket. Its alright if doing a lightning build and you are planning to skip those notables.
