Larry Parrish posted:Honey what's wrong. You haven't touched your 240xBlacksmith's Whetstones I've actually been getting serious mileage out of all the stones that have dropped tbh. Super helpful in getting glassblower's baubles and such without praying for natural drops, makes automating flasks a breeze.

Quick question, when a map has the monster have a X% chance to avoid elemental ailments, how does that interact with the elementalist notable skills that says Hits always shock, ignite, chill? Does the always trump the % avoidance or is it the other way around?

100% chance to avoid ailments means you can't take them. For example, 99% ailment reduction while walking on shocking ground will reduce the effect of shock, and 100% will (barring external factors increasing the effect of your ailments taken) completely nullify the shocking ground. 99% ailment avoidance doesn't do anything versus shocking ground, but 100% makes you immune to it. 100% chance to cause ailments means you'll always be causing ailments, but if the enemy has 100% avoidance, they will not take it. You'll be causing ailments 100% of the time, and they'll be avoided 100% of the time.

if it didn't work like that you would be getting ignited by mobs with map mods even if you were ailment immune which would be very bad

I don't mind the AN mobs abilities besides magma barrier. What I do mind is the garbage loot that some of them are now auto required to drop.

Stux posted:just realised having a max level frost blink gem on an rf build is what was making me instantly explode on reflect monsters, not the rf RF doesn't hit, it just inflicts a degen on enemies in reach, so you get around reflect with it. Reflect is also one of those mechanics that GGG should just fire into the sun. Infected fucked around with this message at 17:21 on Sep 9, 2022 |

Papercut posted:I'm very excited to see how any announcements by GGG for next league are received. Cause even if they claim they're fixing things, the amount of trust they have squandered in the last couple years must be enormous. This is probably going to be another 3.15->3.16 change, where they were so heavy handed trying to nerf something, that they end up leaving it arguably even more powerful than before. Now that players can't trust the manifesto + patchnotes to cover all of the major changes to the game, , a lot of people who buy supporter packs every league are probably going to wait to see how things feel on launch weekend before buying, rather than buying it before launch. This is probably going to force GGG to launch leagues with their rewards over-tuned, and to probably have skills be too powerful at launch, and then pare them back next league. This league's timing was rather fortunate for GGG since there was no big releases happening. November's league is going to go up against Pokemon, God of War, Company of Heroes, Tactics Ogre, and possibly the WoW Dragonflight pre-patch event. If things don't feel good from the start, people are probably going to move on quickly without GGG seeing any money from them.

Heh the frostblink thing was in pohx's faq too. Very easy to forget about and the base damage is surprisingly hefty. Every time I check the price on unnatural instinct it goes up, smh I'm not playing enough to keep up with inflation

gently caress my frostblink is like level 19. If I snag a level 1 I can spec out of reflect immunity… but then it also has a range of 2 feet.

i thought a modern SST build would be an omni build but apparently it is an ashes of the stars build phantasmal SST gets "+1% to Critical Strike Multiplier per 100 Maximum Energy Shield on Shield" and you just pump up that effect look at this disgusting filth https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds/char/RaZZengan/Chainsaw_Boy?i=28&search=skill%3DSpectral-Shield-Throw

Taking my RF character for example: Lvl 1 Frostblink - 142.4 average hit Lvl 20 Frostblink - 17,646.6 average hit 18% Reflect of lvl 1 - 25.632 18% Reflect of lvl 20 - 3,176.4 Max cold hit - 45,280 Max reflects of lvl 1: 45280 / 25.632 = 1,766 Max reflects of lvl 20: 45280 / 3176.4 = 14.2 Add in increased effect of map modifiers to increase the reflect % and other things hitting you while you're blinking through them and it would be quite easy to accidentally nuke yourself with a lvl 20 whereas I don't think even in Empyrean's wildest dreams he'd be able to juice a map enough to hit 1800 monsters at once so that you could nuke yourself with a lvl 1. euphronius posted:Why did they think a monster dropping 40 flasks was a good idea .

What is a number I need to achieve so my guy doesn't keel over when someone touches my guy? I am doing Lightning Conduit. There is often so much stuff in screen or my attention sucks that I just die. I am starting to hate the dying. https://pastebin.com/kG3MdEmz  Any pro tips? Max block/spell block? Another build? More damage?
