Stats that let you gain fortification in certain conditions related to attacking (e.g. on hit, on melee stun) are also inherited by the totem.
Multiple Totems: Melee damage buff does not stack when multiple totems are summoned.
Totem Attack Range: The range at which the totem strikes is affected by the weapon range of the equipped weapon and modifiers to weapon range.[1]
Area of Effect: Modifiers to area radius affect both the range at which the totem strikes, as well as the radius of the attack.
Activation: The totem is active as long as the player remains within a 80 unit radius of it. Initial activation also requires line of sight with the player, but this can be broken once the totem has become active.[2]
Note that helmet enchantments are no longer obtainable since version 3.23.0 and can only be obtained in permanent leagues as already enchanted items from before this patch.
