Coming back to the game and I'm looking to make a CI dude since I've never tried CI before. I always love me some CoC, so I'm looking to go for a budget CoC+Bladefall+EK with CI. I remember back in the early days, Eye of Chayula + Dream Fragments were pretty much mandatory for any CI build. How come most of the builds I see don't even mention those anymore? Do they just... let themselves get stunned 50% of the time? What happened there? I'm playing SC because I'm a nervous wreck and I get mad at video games, but out of curiosity, how do you HC types level an eventual CI build? (Or heck, how would you even level as a witch, for that matter?) There are so few life nodes near the witch starting area, and early Merc feels kinda scary when you have middling life and middling ES and you're just pretty much bad at everything. vvv: Oh didn't know you couldn't get stunned mid-cyclone. I feel kinda bad for buying an Eye of Chayula off Cadiro now. Oh well, it was only like 600 coins, so not too much was lost. facepalmolive fucked around with this message at 18:44 on Mar 22, 2016 |

You can't be stunned during Cyclone, just frozen, and a Surgeon's whatever flask of Heat will take care of that.

Witches leveling will pretty much always branch to Templar and Shadow to pick up any life they can get. Something like this will be pretty common among many witch builds (exact paths of course depending on build). If they're building for life endgame, they'll probably go down to the Scion wheel as well. http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-...7Dr5Ovu74jwH_k3 edit: If I was building a crit/AOE build intended to go CI eventually, I might start something like this: http://www.pathofexile.com/passive-...-Tr7u-I8B_w1fk3 Elerion fucked around with this message at 18:36 on Mar 22, 2016 |

How do Perandus chests work? Sometimes I've had the same mob just respawn a half dozen times before it opened, do you need to kill them near to it or something?

You have to keep killing the stuff it spawns until it stops glowing. Kill any Unique monsters from the chest first. Sometimes though the chest can bug and be unable to be opened.

I'm actually doing a CoC - Bladefall - EK build right now. Was able to 6-link my Voll's Devotion (100% chance for Power Charge on Critical), which helps a lot, pushing my crit rate above 85%. With Assassin you have higher damage output, with Trickster you have 0 mana cost on your Cyclone, Whirling Blades, Flicker Strike, and Lightning Warp, plus higher Evasion and Energy Shield. https://www.pathofexile.com/passive...fVv9tr5N_mk-wk=

For phys spells CoC I would lean towards Pathfinder if you have the budget for the unique flasks on top of your CoC gear. The power of the free 1/2 Surgeons on all your unique flasks with Blade Vortex is insane, you can more or less have them up forever even on single target fights. Scion Berserker + Assassin is the other standard choice, the free 1.5% leech is huge, essentially a 7th link. You also get an extra 1% base crit and some other minor bonuses. I'm doing Voll's Discharge CoC right now, might try a phys CoC as my next build.

It's certainly powerful, the biggest part to me is the near phys damage immunity that comes with having 5 endurance charges at all times. I think the Pathfinder build is better single target damage due to the power of the free poison gem, but has the huge drawback of wanting a 4 green pure ES chest which takes roughly 1k chromes to get on a high end chest.

Oh hey thanks. I was actually following this guide as a template (because I'm a huge baby and don't know what's good for me), but I've been trying to trim points here and there (mostly around spell crit/spell crit multi) to make room for more ES nodes because my gear is bound to be poo poo to start. I'm a big fan of the 40% ES from shield node, since I'll probably start with a crappy 5L evasion or evasion/ES chest to start (because lol GGGGR on a pure ES chest) and perhaps move into a Voll's Protector, neither of which have high ES to begin with, so I'll be getting a huge chunk of my ES from my shield anyway. Then again, maybe I'm just overvaluing that node. I do like your tree a lot. Seems pretty point-efficient. I think I'm going to steal it.

no, i went Shadow / Trickster. I like having 0 mana costs on my main abilities, plus the extra ES and EVA. At first I used Discipline - Hated - Blasphemy and reserved 99% of my mana. I've switched to Herald of Ice now. I needed 4 green for Cast on Crit - Cyclone - Bladefall - Ethereal Knives. Ended up with 2 Red slots, currently using Life Leech and [Enhance / Item Quanity / Fortify] Current Build: Auras: Discipline Herald of Ice Blasphemy - Warlord's Mark Vaal Haste Support Summon Ice Golem Cast on Damage Taken - Immortal Call - Glacial Cascace - Ethereal Knives (need to rework this. Drop the CoDT and IC to level 1 in their own link, free up 2 slots) Main attack Cyclone - Cast on Crit - Bladefall - Ethereal Knives - Life Leech - [Enhance / Item Quanity / Fortify] Secondary Attack Whirling Blades - Fortify - Faster Attacks Ripost - Reconing - Inc Crit Damage - Inc Crit strikes Lightning Warp (for moving through traps in the lab)

Currently I'm using Voll's Protector, Maligario's Virtuocity, and The Vertex, and even with those three i'm at 6.5k ES. Once I get good pure ES Helm and Gloves, I should be able to hit 7.5 - 8k ES.

Ahh, 4 green for the phys spells version, I was thinking you wanted the 4 green for Discharge. As Trickster you really want 3g 2b 1r, Scion would want 4g 2b, both for Discharge of course. EDIT: I love Trickster. I have a lovely 200 ES helm and only a 370 ES shield and have 8.9k ES, couple upgrades and a level or two and I should break 10k. This is where I am at now, https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Cinara/characters So far T14 maps are a complete joke, have not had any T15s drop yet to try those. Currently saving towards a 6link Voll's while I throw random fusings at a 6socket one I have in hopes it happens. Once that happens I plan on chaos spamming a Hubris Circlet till I get something good. Cinara fucked around with this message at 21:09 on Mar 22, 2016 |

Ada posted:They mentioned toggling auras next the chests sometimes helps I noticed this happening a lot with my summoner, and realised it's because ALL of the minions are out of LoS of the chest. Presumably the resurrect ray that comes from the chest can't go through corners. My minions were pulling the mobs away from the chest. Now I run past the chest before aggroing the pack, never happens. Herb Dington fucked around with this message at 21:59 on Mar 22, 2016 |

Stuntman posted:This is partially untrue. It might be a bug, but killing the monsters too far away from the chest stops it from resurrecting them, leaving you unable to feed the chest enough souls for it to open. If you make sure the chest is in view before slaughtering, you'll never have a chest become permalocked. This, but I've had it happen close to a chest, just all bodies around the corner ^^ As long as one minion remains in range/LoS it will open.

One of the weekend patches claimed to fix the un-openable chest problem. I haven't seen it in the past few nights. I have a T5ish capable Cyclone Marauder/Berzerker here: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/JawnV/characters Not sure where to go. It's fine for zoning out and chewing through Lake runs, but whenever I'm partied with folks it feels like my clear speed is just dragging the group down. Survivability's decent, damage is ok when I can actually get to an enemy. My next few passives are going to the Life cluster near Scion. Any advice?

JawnV6 posted:Any advice? Try Earthquake. 2h RT Cyclone isn't as hot anymore, Earthquake can use the same everything you're doing right now but should work out to a lot more damage. You essentially have 1 damage gem linked to your Cyclone in your "5link", with Inc AoE, Fortify and Blood Magic, Melee Phys is the only one directly adding damage. Cyclone with it's high mana cost forces you into running Blood Magic as a link. Earthquake, especially if you can 5link that Marohi, will allow more damage links and you might even try dropping Fortify and just using it on a leap slam link. EQ can be more of a ranged skill so it's a bit safer.

One last question, and it's probably my costliest mistake: Does anyone take the Savage Hit & leech nodes in Berzerker or is the 40% damage/10% damage taken the only correct choice?

Movement and attack speed are large parts of its DPS, Marohi fucks both of them. If you're going to stick with Cyclone, use Hezmana's bloodlust. Your gear is in desperate need of an upgrade. Your belt, left ring, amulet, and armor are hot garbage. 30 chaos should be enough to get some basic mapping gear. I'd also suggest dropping some of those jewel sockets for damage nodes that are much more efficient.
