I'm doing a Spectral Throw Duelist and man... I hope this guy never dies. On my way to the lab wondering what would be my best sub-class for it.

I'm looking for a 'nova' type build. I am imagining running into a pack of mobs, and then blowing up in some way. Maybe frost nova or something like it. I was thinking Templar but I think i would do anything. Any recommendations?

Frost Nova would probably be a fine spell to use with that.

Voll's Protector to give you a 100% chance for a power charge on critical strike Cyclone - Cast on Crit - Frost Nova - Discharge Having two different elements in your Cast on Crit is important to use Elemental Equilibrium. The first spell in the chain goes off first, drops the elemental resistance against the 2nd spell in the chain. 2nd spell in the chain drops the elemental resistance for the start of the next CoC chain. You could also do a dual-curse-blasphemy setup as well for Assassin's Mark (More Crits and crit damage, Frenzy charges) and Warlord's Mark (More life and mana leech, endurance charges) to boost the output of your Discharge as well. This would interfere a bit with Elemental Equilibrium, since you'd be doing more than one damage type at a time. Shadow Trickster will get you free to cast Cyclone, Whirling Blades, and Lightning Warp, and more survivability through ES/Evasion. Shaddow assassin will get you more damage output through higher crits.

No rush or anything. I had a somewhat general question, but since I really like playing this game with just a mouse, I feel like I should buy a mouse that has more than 4 programmable buttons on it. Does anyone have one they think is worth getting? Or how many buttons I would need? One for each hotkey and the flasks, that'd be 12, right? Though the left click hot-key is sort of annoying, since I have to hold shift to actually cast a spell with it.

The Real Foogla posted:you need to target closer to yourself, in the direction you want to go (this btw shortens the cycle but keeps up the attacks per second, i.e. ups dps and mana consumption, this is also the reason increased movespeed increases cyclone dps) Got up to 64, through to the dried lake. Now I need to shuffle everything around, drop the blood magic passives for the gem, replace every slot, etc, etc,

I died last night with a 2H sword crit Ice Crash Slayer. I went Endless Hunger and Impact. If you have good leech, Endless Hunger is really nice defensively. I felt like I always had an Eternal life flask healing me. Too bad I thought I could fight Izaro with Vulnerability while wearing Abyssus. Definitely consider Slayer.

I was thinking Templar but I think i would do anything. Any recommendations? Trypanon CoC! Use cyclone to cast frost and shock nova and since Trypanon always crits you don't have to invest in crit passives so you can have over 200% life and a lot of armor. If you go Juggernaut you can get Unstoppable (the move speed helps cyclone a lot with Trypanon 's slow rear end attack speed), Undeniable for the +1000 accuracy, and Unbreakable so you can be immune to stuns and get 15k+ armor with no shield. Takes Elemental Overload and Elemental Equilibrium for more damages! Cyclone + CoC + shock nova + frost nova + life leech + increased aoe/controlled destruction. Run Warlords mark + Enfeeble/Determination as curses. Trypanon is cheap as hell, you will need 30% movespeed boots, and then just get life/resists/armor on gear. I'm leveling with Sunder/EQ and a wideswing. Tree: https://www.pathofexile.com/passive...v6PGj58uCkuAAA= Some more traditional self cast nova builds: shock nova https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1429122/page/1 frost nova https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1443142

I found it interesting that Slayer was near the bottom in every metric GGG showed the other day, as far as people choosing it / number of top 100 players using that class. I'll be picking up Endless Hunger in Merciless, I went to the other side and got 20% inc aoe and free melee splash. It makes the game a lot of fun for melee! I swap between Glacial Hammer and Infernal Blow depending on the zone and mob resistances therein. With 10% more aoe from the tree and a 5L Marohi, my Infernal Blow in particular (since it's 18q) clears entire screens. Combine that with Blasphemy - Warlord's and whatever that spell that gives you attack speed and leech and frenzy charges at the cost of life degen is, I'm always running with 5 endurance and 3 frenzy charges and am just wrecking poo poo.

I've been doing IB facebreaker and it's much the same- 20q melee splash and 20q IB makes rooms disappear into a haze of gore.

First was a witch with Occultist Bladefall/Poison crit stuff, which was oddly dull, then a witch with Necromancer Dominating Blow, still really fun at 75 except totally stumped by merciless Izaro, and now ranger with Pathfider Someshit which seems extremely broken/fun.

How significant is the "-# physical damage from attacks" on certain items such as Astramentis? Because it's a pretty rare mod and the value is always rather low, which feels like it's deceptive in that it might scale in some way.

Could I get a guild invite for character "ASpecialSnowflake". I've been using an Ice Crash Berkerser setup (https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1289037), fun and tanky. The only stuff I've bought so far is a couple of skill gems. I tried Earthquake for a bit but I didn't like the delay that the quake had, so I might look at grabbing a Less Duration gem later. What wasn't fun was getting my head kicked in by Izaro on my first trip to the Labyrinth. I didn't realise that the elemental pillars had to be disabled before I killed him in the first round, so when I ran into him the second time...

Would the chaos damage from life leech from the The Retch be subject to multipliers from increased chaos damage nodes? I've got some stupid idea for a scion with Berserker/witch pathing for Leech and added chaos damage and want to know if it's a "incredibly stupid, won't work" or just "probably not very effective, have fun" level of dumb. Fake Edit: This damage cannot be modified by damage modifiers because it is considered as reflected damage. From the wiki. Reading is good.

If you build towards it you can make the Retch deal a ridiculous amount of damage, but unfortunately it's based on the actual amount healed, so 100% life leech + vaal pact just means most of your leech will not damage enemies.

Slayer's Endless Hunger would probably work well, then. At least in theory -- it makes it so leech effects don't stop even when you get to 100% life. Hm.

To elaborate: players are paying around 100 coins for a Chaos Orb right now, so look at a few offers to figure out the average Chaos price of an item and multiply by 100. If it typically goes for a single Chaos and he's asking a couple thousand coins you should probably skip it. If it actually looks like a good deal, ask in guild chat.

I bet someone else has tried this, so I'm gonna ask. RF totems (or any other totem build, really). Soul Mantle (lvl 20 curse on you when your totems die/expire/unsummoned at totem cap, ignores curse limit) plus Self-Flagellation (10-20% increased Damage per curse on you). So, easily 7x20=140% inc Damage. Usually 5ish, which is still substantial (100%). Question is: 1) is this practical, given that you're also tchain'd and vulnerability'd and ele weakness'd and conductivity'd and whatnot - the totem cast range is pretty short, 2) and is it practical enough to be worth using Kikazaru or Thief's Torment to reduce the impact of curses 3) if not, what's a good way to indefinitely sustain flask charges for curse immunity? ronya fucked around with this message at 18:04 on Mar 19, 2016 |
