    - It's mandatory because socketed gems are supported by level 20 Spell Totem.

    - It also grants 1 additional totem, increased totem life, and up to 25% spell damage.

    - But there's a downside. It curses you with a random curse when a totem dies.

    - But don't worry, in this build, we'll turn this downside into a benefit.

    - Please pay close attention to the next items.

     

    Kikazaru image.png

    - First of all, let's start with Kikazaru. It's equipable on level 20 but don't equip it until you have your Soul Mantle.

    - This ring is mandatory because it grants 60% reduced curse effect on you.

    - The other 40% you get from your tree, so at the end, you get 100% reduced curse effect.

    Leveling

    This build has a super easy leveling process. It is beginner-friendly.

     

    Tips

    - Start using Spark on level 1 and change for Arc on level 12. Start using Arc Totems as soon as you reach the Ancestral Bond node on your skill tree around level 52. Don't forget your Soul Mantle when this time comes.

     

    Leveling setup of links:

    - If this is your first character, do the following steps:

    1. Create a Witch.

    2. Reach the first town.

    3. Talk to Nessa and purchase Spark.

    4. Put your wand with Spark and Arcane Surge in your stash.

    - Now create your Templar, and you'll have to use Glacial Hammer until the first town. There you can get your wand with Spark and Arcane Surge in your stash.

    - Reaching level 8, replace Arcane Surge with Added Lightning Damage. Also, add Efficacy.

    - Reaching level 10, activate Clarity for more mana regeneration.

    - Reaching level 12, replace Spark with Arc.

    - Also, on level 12, you can use Arc totems as auxiliary damage.

    - But remember, for now, your main skill is the Arc but not the totems.

    - This is an extra setup, not the same as your main Arc setup.

    - Reaching level 16, activate Summon Skitterbots for more damage and survivability.

    - Reaching level 18, replace Efficacy with Faster Casting and add Elemental Focus.

    - Also, on level 18, you can replace Added Lightning Damage and Efficacy with Faster Casting and Elemental Focus in your totem setup.

    - Reaching level 38, replace Faster Casting with Spell Echo.

    - As soon as you reach Ancestral Bond in your tree, around level 52, you must equip your Soul Mantle. Now place this setup in it.

    - Don't forget to equip your Kikazaru to deal with the curses.

    - Around level 60, when you pick Ritual of Awakening in your ascendancy tree, you can replace Clarity with Wrath.
