Voll's Protector is a pretty bad item though, unless you can get a 6l you might as well be using a Tabula with a PCoC gem (looks like Tabs and a 5l Voll's are right about the same price, but Tabula doesn't have to worry about obnoxious off color slots). I can see them nerfing Discharge since Blade Vortex doesn't seem overly powerful on its own.

Voll's Protector is significantly better than PCoC gem, it gives power charges per enemy hit rather than per strike. So if you crit 5 enemies with one attack with Voll's you get 5 charges, with PCoC you'd only get 1.

I guess that may be a viable thing to hit on Voll's, then, just slow down the charge generation?

Voll's charge generation is just utterly loving stupid, and yeah, it probably needs to get hit. Which will likely end up turning all of the current Voll's protectors in the game into legacy items. I have like four or five Voll's on standard so this is ok with me.

I do play on Standard, and yes, the thought also occurred to me. They might do the thing they did to Surgeon's flasks. So I went shopping for some Voll's Protectors today - without links they're cheap as dirt.

I really hope they change make a legacy voll's protector and don't just nerf the mechanics in the back-end. I've got a 4g1b 5link that cost a lot.

they might not touch Voll's at all and just nerf Blade Vortex or Discharge, mind and gem mechanics don't get legacy'd
|
# ? Jan 26, 2016 16:23 |
|
I'd be okay with that since the voll's will still be useful for a standard CoC build then. I'd only be concerned if the buffs were directed at the item and at the underlying mechanics so it would just get bricked instead of legacy'd.

Blade Vortex generating as many charges as it does is the root of the problem, imo. I have no idea what they can do that won't nerf it to oblivion though. Generating charges without blade vortex is fine, with blade vortex you're just at 7 charges forever and things get retarded.

Count Uvula posted:The whole guild pretty much does not give a poo poo at all about the standard stash, as long as you don't do something dickish like take poo poo just to vendor/sell it. This was a few pages back. But some of us(me) enjoy standard sometimes. Count Uvula posted:This sounds like an incredibly bad idea. I thought so too, but after playing without the 10% dodge and spell dodge, I don't mind it. It's kinda dependent on you killing things very very quickly, so it might not be great in future patches. Also Arrow Dancing goes a long way to making a bow character safe as well. funmanguy fucked around with this message at 16:58 on Jan 26, 2016 |

You're in the guild on standard, yeah? There are a tonne of much, much better bows in the gstash. Just grab one. Just generally raid the gstash for anything and everything that would be an upgrade. Most people don't care about it. I'll see if I've got some stuff I'm lugging around that I can dump in there, too.

I got a 5L lightning coil for my bladefall trapper; it's my first time using lightning coil and its so good. I don't think I've died in the last 10 levels. I'm at 82 now and not showing any signs of hitting the wall, this just might become my highest level league character. Bladefall trap is seriously great.

Generating charges without blade vortex is fine, with blade vortex you're just at 7 charges forever and things get retarded. They have to nerf Discharge. Blade Vortex is really just the best method of generating all those charges so quickly right now, but it's not alone. I'm playing an RT Mjolnir Discharger without Voll's Protector and once you get HoT running with Romira's and Cyclone you are never out of power charges. So you'd have to nerf Romira's into unuseability as well. They would have to nerf every single item that generates a charge on hit (crit or otherwise) instead of attack and it's just easier to target Discharge. Not to mention that CoC and Mjolnir are still great without Discharge and that a lot of people can't use Discharge in the first place because the game engine shits itself if your build uses it right (also you can't see what is happening around you, which complicates a lot of situations).

If someone has a level 7 master and doesn't read "scour the belt" as "scour the mastermod using the workbench", I don't think they would understand anything.

Ok, so level 72 Hardcore talisman character, doing pretty good. Questions about mechanics: Does +% elemental on weapons on a belt affect hatred/added fire damage? Does anything help level gems faster other than speed merciless dried lake runs over and over? I see they nerfed Cast when damage taken + enduring cry (war crys are not spells now)... So is that why everyone is running higher level CWDT + Immortal call?

Running a higher level maps and Untainted Paradise will give you more gem experience because they give more experience.

One of the things they specifically mentioned at one point was allowing tools like poe.trade to get more accurate information about if a player is online, for example.
