POE2 Warrior Totem Slam Build

A decision-first totem assisted melee route for players who want extra placed damage while playing heavy melee.

Decision answer

POE2 Warrior Totem Slam Build is for players deciding whether Shockwave Totem should be their main skill direction. Keep the first version narrow: one main skill, two support tools, and clear defensive priorities before chasing endgame scaling.

Leveling plan

  1. Use Shockwave Totem as the main identity before adding extra damage packages.
  2. Add Earthquake when clear, control, or boss pressure starts to fall behind.
  3. Upgrade defenses whenever deaths cost more time than low damage does.
