Izaro doesn't have any huge-chunk-of-phys-damage Vaal Smashish attacks, does he if you have a sufficiently large EHP pool and sustain, facetanking him seems to work. Gotta leap/whirl out of traps though.

ronya posted:he hasn't used them on me in any of the times I've encountered then Oh sorry, A4M Malachai is ridiculously hard because he's optional. Normal and Cruel Izaro/Malachai fights are definitely comparable though, with Izaro doing similar damage but much less predictably in those difficulties.

Apparently if you fully uber the Labyrinth boss he gets a little crazy. I buffed him up all the way in cruel and died. I was already in Merciless so I expected it to be relatively easy.  Rest in peace RippinMyPantsOff. You ripped. And your pants were off when it happened. So continuity, that's good right?

I finally managed to kill cruel Izaro at lvl 55 after a dozen or so attempts. It took me a few tries to figure out how to neuter his buffs correctly, making sure to save two of the charge negating pillars so I can burst him down towards the end of his first phase while keeping the charges off him, made sure none of his guardians survived in the second phase. Even then it was a very tense but extremely fun and challenging fight that I'd gladly do again. I'm glad I didn't overlevel and return 20 levels later, because it would have cheapened the experience a bit.

I've already broken the league for myself by playing an absurdly viable character. I got a Blade Vortex witch to the end of normal and picked up the Mistress of Sacrifice ascendancy node, and now I'm completely indestructible. A high-level CWDT link carries Desecrate, Bone Offering and Chaos Golem. A low-level CWDT link carries Tempest Shield with Curse on Hit + Enfeeble. I'm using Cybil's Paw and running the combo of Eldritch Battery + Zealot's Oath + Mind Over Matter, with 95% of my mana reserved to run Discipline, Vitality and Arctic Armor. Altogether, this means I constantly have near maximum block and spell block, regain life rapidly whenever I'm being attacked or standing near something, curse anything that tries to hit me with Enfeeble, and 30% of the damage taken from hits goes to my rapidly regenerating ES pool instead of my life. I'm expecting either Bone Offering or the Mistress of Sacrifice node to see some serious nerfs at the end of this league. Vanguard Warden fucked around with this message at 08:22 on Mar 7, 2016 |

Yo, link your character and gear. I want to compare with mine, I've been self-casting desecrate and bone offering, and investing my tree into crit.

I feel like any witch build using a skill that benefits from skill duration would do well to go necromancer, between those sacrifice skills not being intended for use by none-zombies and the fact you can easily get some massive self damage and aura buffs for your party without having to invest into minions at all.

I'm out of touch with this game I was messing around with max block the last 2 times I played, I thought that was nerfed into the ground before a few times? Got a build link? Or does anyone in hardcore have a max block style build for me, at least a starting point?

I have been planning a BV necro build since as soon as I saw Mistress of Sacrifice. Tested it in standard and was able to down merciless Malachai with a level 14 BV gem. DPS will be lower than a crit build, but it should be easy and cheap to gear. (cybil's paw, lioneye's remorse, stone of lazwhar and eventually a tabula rasa) The link I posted has MoM since I was playing around with using a Clear Mind jewel and MoM to offset the fact that life from the tree is slightly lower than I am usually comfortable with for a melee-type build. Should be able to cap block/spell block once you get a level 18 bone offering. https://www.pathofexile.com/passive...4q-T-yD048AAA==

I got wrecked the first time I faced Izamaro on normal. It didn't help that I tried to switch out flasks at the stash beforehand before realizing they weren't going to get refilled. My cyclone guy just did no damage to him and then eventually died just as adds came up - seemed like it took awhile. I imagine most first-time-normal players will suck as much as I do, it's a little surprising that he's kind of an actual boss fight compared to the required bosses on that difficulty.

My first time fighting Izaro, I held down heavy strike until the phase ended. Then I got to his 2nd fight and he was all Goku'd up with 3 added damage conduits active, and my resists were all garbage  I like the labyrinth so far, I just wish the skeleton spawning things had more health so I wouldn't accidentally kill them with earthquake. I also wish the areas weren't as big, and there was more trap + monsters combinations, instead of "here is a long floor spike + roomba section you need to blindly run through, good luck!" Earthquake rules. I'm level 60 still using a Geofri's Baptism and it still one shots almost all white mobs in act 1 merciless, 2-3 hits for blue packs, and I just heavy strike down any rares/bosses and weave in EQ to mow down any adds.

My current CWDT setup is a lower level carrying Desecrate, higher level carrying Bone Offering, Chaos Golem, Tempest shield, but that will change at some point (low level desecrate and higher level offering will stay though) - want to get an increased duration on the bone offering. Also running conductivity curse on hit on herald of lightning, don't have space on the tempest shield CWDT setup. Might change that to enfeeble. lurksion fucked around with this message at 18:38 on Mar 7, 2016 |

Vortex has some issues in HC. You have to be very quick on managing flasks and have high defenses as you are so close to mobs. And watch the gently caress out for Lightning Thorns and Vaal Molten Shell totems from the monkey Tora boss. ZenVulgarity posted:How is Panderus or whoever the gently caress League is good, some of the perandus mobs are pretty tough and they need to tone down the graphical effects on them. Servers have not been great since the league started but they are working on it. The Labyrinth is way too long and both it and Izaro are overtuned.

theshim posted:I bought a Death's Harp from someone myself and the whisper said it was in tab "b/o 0 alts" so I dunno. Your tab can have a rule of "Every item in this tab costs X" in which case, the tab MUST have a name formatted like the game gives it. Tabs can also have rules of "Each item gets its own price", in which case the tab can be named anything. So someone probably experimented with the first option, before settling on the second option in your case.
