The league offers players a fresh and fantastic way to upgrade their legendary and unique weapons using the Crucible Passive Skill Tree.

The Arc Totems Hierophant build is a fantastic starter for Path of Exile players, both new and old. It's not as complicated as the other builds out there, such as the Dark Pact Totems or the Winter Orb build, but it is still quite formidable and can stand on its own. This build is also relatively cheap compared to the others, which is good news, especially for players who aren't keen on spending too much on a particular build.

The Arc Totems build is also considered one of the more balanced builds in Path of Exile, clearing dungeons, dealing damage to bosses, and overall survivability is relatively high. Keep an eye out for particular mods on gear you'll be looting. Mods like Lightning Damage, Totem Damage, Elemental Resistances, and Cast Speed as these mods will help you in the long run in completing this build.

Some unique items you'd want to have in your inventory would be the Soul Mantle Robe which grants increased Spell Damage, the Kikazaru Ring, which helps reduce Curse effects, and the Brine Crown, which gives your Hierophant a massive increase in Life, Armour, and Energy Shield. Having all of these equipped turns your Hierophant into such a powerhouse in Crucible.

Following this build path will make you become so powerful that not even the strongest boss in all of Wraeclast would stand a chance against you.


So now that you know which build is best for your Hierophant in Path of Exile's Crucible League, go out there and wreak havoc! Although if you plan on using the Ascendant character class, check out the best build for them in Crucible League right here.
