Logged in to do my 2 uber labs for the day, not doing full key runs or anything since I'm just doing it for 40/40 and managed to nail 2 addtl barrage projectiles on a tempest. Why can't my luck be good when I've actually got builds to make?

Hi whalestory nice to see you again! Don't give up on your dreams though (or do, because then they come true I guess...)

When dicking around with spectral throw in PoB, is it only calculating dps for one impact per projectile? As I understand it ST's damage is applied per 0.3 seconds that the projectile is on target, so real world dps would be higher, right? What's a normal 'good' amount of ST shaper dps to see, in that case?

Yes it's based on 1 hit per projectile. If you are point blanking an enemy then each projectile will hit 2 times, so double your PoB dps. If you're actually optimizing by positioning yourself so the projectiles stay over the enemy, I believe the most hits you get is 5 or 6 with the deceleration enchant? At least I saw a thread on Reddit about it a month or so ago testing on Kuduku.

That's only if they have a wide hitbox. 3 is standard for most bosses.

Ugh, just tried doing uber lab on my bow character and now I remember why I stopped playing my last one. I specced out of VP but then Izaro was super lovely. Why did they make lab require such specific tools?

I haven't felt the need to spec out of vaal pact for uber lab, just run a extra health potion or the pantheon for it, if you aren't specializing in life regen anyway is the maybe 1% life regen gonna really matter?

Why not just bring multiple instant flasks instead of speccing out of VP

Since everyone is using Bisco's anyway, just use that unique Marble amulet while in lab and take a single life flask.

I'll tech up my flask game and try again. I think what I've learned is that I should only play hyper tanky classes in the future. My cyclone Juggernaut is so chill.

I'm glad my "gently caress the atlas just complete every map and run good ones this league" strategy left me with enough sextants to cash in when this monstrosity showed up on poe.xyz



The aura for the lab enchant didn't really matter for my build, though haste or determination reservation would have been lame since those auras are situational for me depending on if I'm using RotP or running wrath/anger instead

I just started flickering and it's boss, even though my crit rate isn't good enough to sustain flicker and my resists suck.

Were you using a particular build? I'm struggling to get my slayer flicker set up right. often times I go from unstoppable death machine, to a fine paste.

I'm following Mathil's build pretty much verbatim, feel free to look up CiaphasGetsADD under account Ciaphas01, I'd link but pathofexile.com seems to be unreachable :confused:

I've had problems with flicker suddenly stopping despite having frenzies, but beyond that nothing that wasn't really my own fault anyway (not keeping fortify going for example).

That's just something you have to accept if you're going to play flicker. Sometimes you die and there's nothing you can do about it. Too many defensive mods on the map can also cause problems, because you really need to be oneshotting trash to be safe. Lightning Coil + Taste of Hate + basalt flask + some way to get endurance charges all help, since you're inevitably going to be wearing Abyssus.

This is usually a pathing issue. I think it can also happen if you're mousing over a non-walkable area when trying to flicker, though it's hard to tell in all the chaos. Either way moving your mouse and trying again helps, and holding down shift (or whatever your attack-in-place key is) while flickering can make it happen less.

I need to grab this and blasphemy but don't have the sockets yet, which is to say my gear *sucks* and I need to spend some effort fixing it. I did buy myself a crit strikes with good quality on it, so once that levels a little more...
