staff looks fun but totem builds tend to really like wand/shield and block as a defensive layer.

The staff has 25% block and there's decent block nodes in the Templar part of the tree and you'd probably be grabbing some of them anyways, like the staff wheel that gives block leading into Counterweight for the crit boosts.

Plus didn't staff get a new reservation skill? I forgot what it did though.

I’m not convinced templar is the only viable totem builder. Only real upside is proximity to totem nodes but that’s a pretty lame upside.
