Sometimes I need to do rare runs just to vendor stuff because I'm always out of alterations. This is probably because I've spent something like an ex worth of them on rolling high level ES stuff

A foil with crit multi might roll attack speed/crit multi/ spell damage. But if its base is a slow foil it's still garbage compared to a high attack speed foil with the same stats that then becomes worth 1-2ex.

I was working with some people to put together a spark inquisitor and specifically said I was gonna make life based spark and not vaal spark because I can't deal with running through zones without looking at loot. Then I hit merc dried lake and I'm looking to buy vaal spark jewels holy poo poo it's so fast.

Get a pair of gloves with the insanity mod on them (16% more cast and attack speed for socketed gems) for your shield charge. I don't even care if the other mods are poo poo, it makes you go so fast. And since dried lake is easy you can use brightbeak and karui charge for more attack speed/movement speed, since shield charge also scales on movement speed. Add in an alchemist's quicksilver flask for even more go fast. You'll definitely want to tweak your item filter specifically for a vaal spark build though since so much stuff is going to be dropping offscreen. It really sucks to launch a vaal spark, hear the clang noise, backtrack and see an alch orb and now you have no souls and have to build up another spark. Set up the sounds so you know exactly what dropped without having to backtrack to look.

Holyshoot posted:
Yep. You'll move from point A to point B faster so you can start your next shield charge faster. That's why you want the alchemist quicksilver flask for increased effect, since a vaal spark build will have no problem getting enough charges to keep that flask up. That's also why karui charge is really nice for when you're doing easy content and just care about going fast, since it has both attack/move speed. Forgot to mention that for easy content you can also run haste aura to go even faster, for the same reason.

Max block (or close enough) is such a treat in Breaches. Esh breaches are pretty much a faith building exercise where I pray my self-healing from all of the blocking will carry me through the swarm of enemies.

Jusupov posted:Character Jusupov Velastrasz is who I'm referring to here. https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Fennesz_/characters I originally asked you because with so many totems I figured you were Tukohama's as well, but you're going with the same idea, but in a completely different direction. I went Inquisitor so I'm crit/power charge centered in order to trigger the complete negations of resistances upon a crit. I skipped the Scion life wheel as well as the build guide I was following skipped it. I also had to drop my 6th power charge in the passive tree so I could pick up more resists and make the leap from Mind Over Matter/Eldritch Battery. I also don't drop any decoy totems as my three spell totems do a pretty good job at drawing aggro. Between Whirling Blades and Vaal Summon Skeletons, breaches are pretty survivable as well. I just did my first T14 this afternoon which I feel like is pretty good considering how mediocre half of my gear is. In terms of gear I am pretty satisfied with my helmet and weapons and my chest could sorely use an upgrade but will have to do for now. A chest that would be worth spending the currency on to upgrade would be like 9+ex which I don't really have right now. Otherwise I have a lot to upgrade but I'm either too lazy to do it or, when I do actually search for upgrades, nothing fits the bill or I get no responses. If anyone has any advice I'd love to hear it  e: Clarification. fennesz fucked around with this message at 01:19 on Dec 21, 2016 |

Meta question: bino's and death's hand have gone from 1.5ex-2ex in early league down to, freakin, 28c and 15c. What's changed? Did it turn out that those items actually suck for blade flurry?

well on day 2, 1ex was 30c so, okay so in my limited 3 league long experience, the only items that hold value are top tier rares and top tier uniques (skyforths, disfavor, acuities, etc) binos isnt a top tier unique, it's a good dagger but a well rolled rare will outclass it, and as more people get to high level zones, supply of them increases Orange DeviI fucked around with this message at 08:34 on Dec 21, 2016 |

Demand died out as everyone who wanted one got one and people who had bino's upgraded to a really good rare if they were pushing that build higher. Also cyclone meatballs became the hot new thing people wanted to try and the required items are new and harder to acquire.

He said the other day that he wants to stay away from HoWA to spite people who bought up bunches of them in anticipation of him making a build with them and causing a spike. And using BF CWC means he probably wants to scale physical / spell damage instead of lightning / attack.

Finally got my first exalt to drop after ~250 hours of play. Thank you Neversink for making the loud noise to notify me of off screen drops. My buddy managed to get his after about ~12 hours of play in act 2 cruel. Lucky bastard. I promptly used the funds to buy a Whispering Ice gear set, but I have a question about damage conversion/increases. The build takes Whispering Ice's cold damage and uses Pyre to convert it to fire damage. When buying jewels and picking nodes I often can choose between something saying '% increased cold damage' and '% increased fire damage'. When it's a binary choice is there any reason to pick one over the other? It seems like it wouldn't matter because all of the cold damage would be increased and then converted, whereas the fire damage would be converted then increased, but I feel like they'd end at the same total damage number. Am I missing something with how damage conversion works?

However, if you have something that boosts both cold and fire, i.e, the Snowforged node or the Izaro's Dilemma jewel, you'll get the benefit of both.
