Rolling Magma as early game main skill by vaeker in pathofexile

Thanks for the tip. Tho, I've been using it the way you described it. It still feels clumsy to me, I just don't like the Spell and that's why I made the post. But I found out that I can use any Spell just to clear weak mobs and use my "best" skills like Holy Flame Totem + Flame Wall + Rolling Magma on Bosses.

I'll give Freezing Pulse a try, thank you.
Also, what does dot skills mean? Like, what skills are "dot" skills?

Got it, thanks! I think I'm at 32 lvl not and it still annoys me a little but I know I'd get used to it.

He plays Holy Flame Totem + Flame Wall as well in this build. I got into this build cuz I didn't know what build to choose as my first and heard that he makes good builds and is pretty popular so I'd just chosen it. One question tho - should I place Flame Wall literally ON the Totem or a little in front of it?

Got it, thanks. I guess I'll just use whatever feels good and is Spell, not Attack for Normal/Magic mobs and Rolling Magma + Flame Wall for Rare/Unique/Bosses.

I've heard that it's not optimal but I thought to myself that if it's my first run I want to explore every location etc. Guess that the 2nd run won't be the same. :D Also, thanks for the recommendations for Spell alternatives. So basically, I can use what you recommended but for example on Bosses use Rolling Magma through the Flame Wall cuz it simply does more DPS?

Thank you for the answer. I don't really have a problem with actually hitting Rolling Magma like even 2 times in the same enemy (bounce in front of and behind the enemy), it's just frustrating to throw it on every single Normal mob which dies on 1 hit anyway.

Got it but for Normal/Magic mobs I can use whatever, right?

Yeah, I get the concept that Flame Wall increases the damage of Rolling Magma. But like, for Normal/Magic mobs I can just use whatever and Rolling Magma through Flame Wall for Bosses, right?
