So does anyone have a clue on why exalts are back down to ~61c?

I learned the same lesson on 20% all resist boots, there really should be a warning about that, but I understand why it would overlap the original.

Should I upgrade my skill gems to corrupted versions with higher quality if the price isn't too asinine? That's one step I really haven't taken in the game. For what it's worth, I am using explosive arrow this league and it seems I can get an EA 23% at level 20 for about 5-10 chaos.

EA scales harder with levels than quality, get a lv21 one

# ? Jan 6, 2017 17:53 |

I knew I was doing something wrong when I saw they were going for 5-10c. Glad I asked about it here first. The level 21's are going for an exalted+. Makes much more sense.

Yea quality is ignite chance and that's good but lv21 is a big fat damage boost

How do people play these builds with tiny amounts of mana but no mana regen on the tree or gear? I have to get a ton of mana regen on the tree to run my 6L SRS fast.

Mana leech. SRS can't leech so regen is the only option.

Scorching Ray CwC Whispering Ice builds wear Pyre then go mental on fire damage gear and nodes, right? Putting one together this weekend (CI probably, against my preference but it just seems too strong to ignore right now). I guess at least this time ignites aren't part of the process so at least I wouldn't feel compelled to wear Southbound. I suppose I also wouldn't bother with the elemental proliferation node in Elementalist. (Speaking of which, did I do wrong picking Elementalist? I wonder if Inquisitor would have been better.) Also just double checking, reflect mobs require the spell to hit, which SR doesn't (but WI does), correct?

Well, there's defenses and stuff to allocate too :P Inquisitor might be better for CI since you get the free Consecrated Ground and its ES regen boost. Correct.

Putting one together this weekend (CI probably, against my preference but it just seems too strong to ignore right now). I got into yellow maps up to t9 last night. Despite being a bad casual, SR CWC WI is carrying me really well. Finally got down to US, breaches were the only time enough stuff rushed me to stun but it was still some bad deaths. In addition to resists and ES, you want Int on every single piece.

Right, sorry, I thought Int, ES and resists on gear was implied Yeah as far as I understand it cold nodes are just as good when wearing Pyre--the Snowforged notable is a good example, in that cold spells like Vortex benefit from both the Ice and Fire portion, making a 50% damage boost in a single node. (ed) whypick1 posted:Well, there's defenses and stuff to allocate too :P Yeah, the free Consecrated Ground is what I was thinking of, along with the resist penetration to add on top of SR's penetration buildup. Even longer distance than Witch from Vaal Pact, though, which I thought was necessary for CI leech builds? (I assumed I'd be putting Life Leech Support in WI to leech off the Icestorm here) Ciaphas fucked around with this message at 19:43 on Jan 6, 2017 |

That reminds me, does the Icestorm from WI somehow level up on its own or is there something about the way it scales that makes it keep up without the usual benefits of gem leveling?

StashAugustine posted:Doesn't ignoring resists ignore penetration too? Also Icestorm gains base damage with int What to you mean, ignoring resists? I thought the Inquisitor notables were extra penetration under certain circumstances? Or are you referring to the hit-less nature of SR? (I'm at work or I'd check for myself, sorry.)

I mean the main one is "ignore elemental resistances on critical hit" but I don't think you'd take that with a WI build.

# ? Jan 6, 2017 20:02 |

I'll have to see what the Elementalist build I was originally following takes at later levels when I get home from work. I do know it takes Elemental Overload early on, don't really remember anything else to do with crit.

theshim posted:Icestorm is similar to the HoWAs in that it gains 1-3 base cold damage for every 10 intelligence. With a decent amount of int it's trivial to get the numbers on it on par with and ahead of what spells normally hit. Makes sense; I guess you'd be loading up on Int for beefier energy shields anyway. Also I made it to p3 shaper on my totem guy yesterday; lost four of six portals on p2 and lost the last two there at p3. That is an insane shitshow of a phase, my god. Fantastic fun though; wish it weren't so expensive to rip, I'd love to practice it more. Ciaphas fucked around with this message at 21:20 on Jan 6, 2017 |

What can I do to survive better? https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Anithera/characters So far Xoph wrecks me if I'm not super careful. My last attempt I had to use all portals and got him to a sliver of his hp left and I died. Atziri's big Flameblast one shot me but I think I may have been able to dodge it and didn't as I'm new to these fights. I guess more life and maybe armor? My gem utility is bouncing around as this character is an amalgamation of a couple cyclone guides. I tried cwdt enfeeble, I tried cwdt molten shell..warlords mark and immortal call..etc Dunno what I'm doing ugh. I've only done up to T6 maps which are not hard but haven't had harder map tiers drop to test higher difficulties.
