WoW allows you to message people in other servers by following this rule: If you message someone with just the name, it tries to message that person on your server. Otherwise you add -servername. So therat-standard. Since "-" is an illegal character you don't even have to change that rule in PoE.

Fair enough. My initial reaction was "ugh, no" but I suppose it's alright when you get used to it.

I've really only played for about 10 hours but will give this a go when it starts up again.

Looking at rolling a summoner, although I do love using a marauder with Sunder. Boom boom boom.

https://pastebin.com/45K35Hm2 there's a doomfletch inuqisitor I threw together the other day. It was very quick and dirty and Im not sure I like it. It probably needs a lot more life, and maybe switch to tornadoshot instead of split arrow.

Of those? I'd definitely do sunder. Cyclone and sunder are both in very good places right now, but sunder has the clear speed by a mile.

Sunder is more effective but I'm going with Cyclone because it looks cooler

...I'm sorry. I can't seem to remember any of the rest.
I'm making a really stupid last-second Vortex Totem Inquisitor build and wondering if the "non-critical strikes penetrate 10% of enemy resistances" node would always apply to Vortex's DoT since it technically can't crit?

DoTs don't benefit from penetration, it only applies to Hits.

You say that, but it might have changed:

quote:

One consequence of this change is that incoming damage over time now only checks mitigation once (as opposed to once on the hit and once on the damage over time). This means that some enemies, such as those that can Ignite players, may deal more damage than they were previously.

I love living in civilization. It took like 10 minutes to finish the patch. Now I get to wait until 10 pm when the servers go up, go down, go up and go down on repeat as we all slam into them like deranged moths trying to catch the sun.

fyi, if you have a steam poe account you can message support and get them to activate it for standalone client

that said i prefer steam client except I'm remote for work on a linux labtop and standalone seems to work better with wine

This machine kills fascists
Can't decide if I want to start as ED Trickster (maybe expensive?), or maybe Frost Blades Raider (going to be popular but not too hard to build with whatever gear), or maybe just like a Cyclone Slayer. I wanna try all three new skills but probably going to wait for my 2nd char to do one of them, in case they reveal themselves to have complex or expensive gear required.

if somehow the mtx system rears its head and kills the servers again once servers go live, i think chris wilson is just gonna take the code for the new mtx system and blast it into the sun
