Jun 06, 2019 Hey all, hope you enjoy this guide. Don't forget to check out the live stream anytime Mon - Sat 1PM MST! I will be live most of the weekend for league start so stop by anytime to slay some metal. Mar 09, 2019  The Path of Exile Synthesis League (Patch 3.6) gave us some new chaos oriented skills to play and experiment with. This build features the Bane Occultist Build which we will use to shred through maps and other content.

Intro & build description

A very strong choice for the build to push high maps or even to start in a new league due to how strong and effective totems are. With a minimal currency investment, you can breeze through map tiers with ease. Totem builds, in general, are very safe and easy to play, summon totems and run around collecting loot while you totems do the killing for you.

Build Pros

  • Dirt cheap to begin with
  • Perfect league starter build
  • Very safe
  • Good single target damage and great clear speed
  • Everything around you is frozen/shattered
