Righteous Fire Chieftain for PoE 3.29
Pohx’s 3.29 Chieftain uses Righteous Fire for clear, Hinekora explosions in dense packs and Fire Trap for single target. It starts with rare life and resistance gear. The original guide includes the passive tree, gem links and equipment stages.
Leveling and the switch to Righteous Fire
Use the leveling tree from Pohx’s current 3.29 starter before importing an endgame variant. Check recovery and fire resistance before switching to sustained RF. If your life drains with RF on in a safe area, check your regeneration, gear and passives against the guide’s leveling stage before moving on.

First maps and Voidstones
Start with life and resistances on rares. RF and Hinekora handle packs, while Fire Trap gives you damage to apply to a boss while moving. Pohx’s setup can reach the first two Voidstones on basic gear. Expect the fights to take longer than ordinary map clear.
Pohx’s later gear includes Cloak of Flame and an Elder helmet setup for Fire Trap. Compare your character with the matching equipment stage before buying either upgrade. The original build, updated August 7, 2026, has the exact Path of Building import and item recommendations.
What to check before 3.30
