How do I set a personal message in the guild screen? The one that shows up next to people's account names

I usually just do 6x purity of fire usually all league, vaal them and sell the 21s, quality doesn't matter on them.

KirbyKhan posted:In act 3 Imma buy 3 gems from Siosa to just level on my unused offhand. I wasn't able to make sense of the skillgem market late this league. But Imma go with my gut and pick skills I saw pop up on guides a bunch. For spare gem leveling you typically want active spell gems with a vaal version or empower/enlighten. Active spell gems get the most extra power from going up a level, and having a vaal version means that people will typically want to spend their incursion double corrupts on those gems more than any other. Empower/Enlighten tend to be not really worth it unless you stick them in a haku weapon, and even then might not be worth it because you have to wait longer to cash them out. On the flip side, you end up spending less time trading for similar returns, so decide which is more important to you. Setting a 20/0 gem down to 1/20 is almost never worth it when you can sell the gem and buy a 1/15 gem for a fraction of what you got for the 20/0 gem.

But Imma go with my gut and pick skills I saw pop up on guides a bunch. I no longer bother leveling gems to convert to 20% quant for selling because there are too many sources of high quant gems these days (delve, incursion and lab all give lots of 16%+ quant gems) I would focus on leveling gems for vaaling that work well at level 21 with 0% quant. Auras fit this well; wrath is a good one, I think that the puritys (especially fire) can also be pretty good. I suspect that herald of purity is probably also a decent one because the quant buff doesn't do a lot for most builds using it.

I've been messing around in PoB and standard and I made a chin sol point blank ele hit CI champion. The numbers in PoB seem great but the reality is underwhelming. GMP and chain let you erase multiple packs at a time offscreen, but the single target damage is terrible. It's obvious in hindsight: traps and totems completely sidestep the disadvantages of chin sol/point blank, and using it yourself is probably always going to feel worse, especially against bosses. I've been trying to figure out if I can squeeze decent single target dps out of the build with different gear but I'm not sure it's possible short of a double corrupted frostferno. If anyone has any ideas on this I'd love to hear them. Next I want to try a similar setup as a totem chieftain. Hopefully the PoB numbers give a better idea of reality with this one. I've put together a build using almost entirely uniques, all of them are common and attainable and will hopefully remain so. No OP rares, no hard to get items, and no reliance on new gems or mechanics. It's not necessarily a cheap build, but definitely achievable and realistic, and maybe even patch-proof. It can reach 8k life, has 3 totems, and does 150k dps per totem, increasing to 240k against blinded targets. I'm fully prepared for the patch notes to nerf or outright break this build, it happens to every build I plan before patch notes are out.

Cleared Uber Elder with it and got to around Delve 400 before getting bored. I don't know about CI, but Champion could potentially have the exact same tree as I ended up with (with different ascendancies obviously).

Re:Skillgems Ill keep the many sources of quality in mind. I got about 20-40 gcbs from vendoring over the league. That can cover the spread of whatever skill setup after buying whatever.

Cleared Uber Elder with it and got to around Delve 400 before getting bored. Thanks for the feedback! I did make sure to use a weapon swap with single target gems, it still didn't feel great to me. I know the scion version is good, but I think an important part of that is the slayer overleech. I wouldn't mind trying the scion version, but I don't have one leveled. I think I'm leaning toward a trap or totem build anyway, so I can just ignore reflect.

Molten Strike helm enchant nerfed to one less ball and wildfire is now limited to one gem. I had a lot of fun with Grelwood MS last season. Also RIP Quill Rain being an end game bow. Zana mods look like fun next league, Perandus, Abyss, Breach. With Nemesis not being in the mods is the only source for HH div cards? nerox fucked around with this message at 01:55 on Dec 5, 2018 |

Molten Strike may have less balls now but it does more base damage!

So they removed one extra totem from heiro but gave the the passive tree another totem. I dont know how effective the extra totem per cast will be when heiro already summons totems super quick

The real travesty is that you can't stack multiple sources of extra totem per cast.

quote:Ruby, Sapphire and Topaz flasks no longer grant added maximum resistances. Instead, they each reduce the damage taken of their respective elements by 20%. Not sure what to think of the Doryiani's Fist change. I guess the skill scales a bit better but has lower base dps since it's slower. It's a bigger aoe at least. quote:Malachai's Artifice no longer has reduced Elemental Equilibrium effect. This affects all versions of the item.

Champion looking very nice The Champion *New Notable - Master of Metal: 20% chance to Impale Enemies on Hit with Attacks. Impales you inflict last 2 additional Hits. If you've Impaled an Enemy Recently, you and nearby Allies have +1000 to Armour. You and nearby Allies deal 4 to 8 added Physical Damage per Impale on the Enemy. *Added a small passive leading to Master of Metal which grants 15% increased Evasion Rating and Armour, and 8% increased Impale Effect. *Inspirational now also causes your Banner skills to reserve no mana, recover 20% of planted Banner Stages when you cast a banner while you have a banner planted, and causes you and nearby allies to recover 0.5% of maximum life per Banner stage when you plant a banner. It also grants 15% increased effect of Non-Curse Auras from your Skills. I want to impale some chumps on my fists
