Question about RF/Searing Bond Totem Build

I was browsing for a RF/Searing totem build, and I came across one that seemed alright, but I had a question regarding the PoB that was included, thinking I'm missing or don't know something about how RF/Searing Bond work. (Here is the PoB Link - https://pastebin.com/GCasL60P).

The person who's build I'm looking at included two nodes for Totem Attack & Cast Speed. My question is, are RF/Searing Bond affected by either totem attack or cast speed? For instance, does the damage "tick" faster or anything like that? Or are those wasted nodes?

Cast speed would only help the totem cast the skill initially. Once the bond or RF is running, the cast speed won't help at all. They seem like wasted nodes based on what you have said.

I believe that cast speed will make the totem turn faster, and will also make scorching ray apply ticks faster.

OP is using Searing Bond, which is not affected by cast speed.

Thanks for the comments. It makes sense to me that those aren't affected by attack/cast speed.

Oh yeah, my mind read "scorching ray" for some reason.
