Bluemillion posted:Speaking of that, why aren't there spears in this game? They'd be awesome as a pure dex melee weapon with a melee range implicit. because the Ranger is thematically designed around fast 1h weapons (claws, daggers, swords) or a bow that's more or less it, really

short-term goals: obtain a Voll's Devotion, on standard or challenge league progress: 9 out of ~25 exalts on Standard. hmm. Also a pile of Agates and chance orbs, in both leagues. Wonder whether I should try my luck...

All that, and on hardcore, via low-level mapping? You don't ask for much, do you? On softcore I'd recommend something flexible like this. LGOH and TT means you can run curse or no-leech no-regen maps more easily.

dealing with Dominus's lightning as melee is less of a problem if you can Whirling Blades in a circle around him.

If you segregate all your "leveling items/might need this" tabs from your "endgame items/liquid currency/recipe items" tabs, it'll make merging stashes much quicker on league end.

Resistances: two-stone rings help a lot. Slap crafted resistances onto everything if need be. Crafting is a godsend for the poorly-equipped. More than a couple of weeks into the start of a league, you should just trade for a Goldrim and call it a day. It's going to be way better than anything else you have, for a long while at least.

A thought: the character list at the selection screen should display their bandit quests with little icons next to the name.

# ¿ Jan 26, 2016 08:39 |

So I wouldn't have to log through each one to find out what they have. In-game, you can already just hit the waypoint screen and flip through Act II. Although, yeah, it should be in /passives or something.

It isn't - /passives will tell you whether you got Eramir, but not which of the bandits you aided. Yeah. I dunno why, either.

they're going to hit Discharge or Voll's Protector or Voll's Devotion or Blade Vortex with the nerfhammer, hard. maybe all four. I just wish I knew what's going to happen before investing in a build. if they crimp just Blade Vortex alone, then discharge mjolner is still going to be safe. But I could see them nerfing Discharge into the ground and then some, seeing that it's a skill designed for an age when you had to generate every charge one by one.

I do play on Standard, and yes, the thought also occurred to me. They might do the thing they did to Surgeon's flasks. So I went shopping for some Voll's Protectors today - without links they're cheap as dirt.

they might not touch Voll's at all and just nerf Blade Vortex or Discharge, mind and gem mechanics don't get legacy'd

300 seems to be the conventional wisdom; hence 350 for no-risk via Vorici. In the nature of independent RNG, it's entirely possible for the bill to run into a thousand or more, mind you.

There must be stuff that only dedicated players will have time and wealth to access. I'm fine with this tier being endgame maps rather than build-defining uber uniques.

I could see a Surgeon's Quartz Flask of Reflexes becoming de rigueur, depending how much dodge they provide. Too little and they'll feel ineffective on their own. Too much and they'll make Acrobatics OP.

looks like enough people deleted their characters that they might do somethingquote:I received a lot of emails about this, so I'll make sure that we fix it up as best as we can. I haven't personally looked into what went wrong yet. If people have deleted their characters, we'll try to recover the information from logs. It's time-consuming but will hopefully be possible. Unfortunately because today is Sunday and tomorrow is an NZ public holiday, the earliest our server guys can investigate is Tuesday NZT. Sorry for the delay! Manyorcas posted:So I last played this game waaay back in beta, but I never got beyond act 2 so I'm still essentially a new player, looking for advice on my build and some more general questions. from experience, you'll start having trouble with pacing around A4M Dried Lake. with leech, in particular, you need hefty damage to be leeching anything. Leech is not common on spells alone but you can use a life leech gem. hybrid life+ES is indeed viable. It's also expensive, though, not usually advised for new characters (because you need items that provide a good amount of both life and ES, enough to survive chaos damage) - arguably it's even more expensive than pure ES. You might not have as much trouble with this, since you've taken a huge amount of ES and life passives. But your damage will suffer, and with it, you're going to have trouble leeching. ronya fucked around with this message at 03:21 on Feb 7, 2016 |

Nomic's Storms are the best boots you can have whilst levelling, for the sole and incontestable benefit of 40% movement speed in towns. Sadly, boots do not get any faster. Once you are mapping regularly from your HO, you can ditch em. Most of the time that matters, your ES bulb is not full. And outside towns, if gottagofast matters to you, just whirling blades your way about. ronya fucked around with this message at 13:49 on Feb 7, 2016 |

I'd socket all my gear and set up full CWDT effects. You're missing a lot. That won't cost 2ex, of course... e: in other news, followed a mjolner passive tree so carefully that I failed to notice that the designer is using an Atziri's Acuity (which he mentions as an option). Needless to say, I do not have an Acuity. Now in an attribute jam. Time to shop carefully for rares, I guess. e#2: thank god for crafting. Some careful adjustment later I have capped res despite underlevelled purities and a Saffel's. e#3: aaaand I missed note of some rares in a remove-only tab. Time to spend another scour. ronya fucked around with this message at 16:33 on Feb 8, 2016 |

Thinking of pushing my CWDT to level 20, because it seems to fire reliably even at level 14. Currently it triggers Blood Rage and Immortal Call. I see that Immortal Call got nerfed so that it provides increased duration rather than base duration. With that in mind, is the Inc Dur support still worth it? I could replace it with a high-levelled Molten Shell, for the armour boost.

Died three times to a doubled possessed Torture Chamber boss, even with Saffel's, Purity of Lightning, and a Topaz up (I only went in the third time because I was at 0%exp). Laser cut through me like butter, not even enough time to leap behind a pillar. Just how much damage would it be doing anyway?

Crit is capped at 95%. You can already spam Cold Snaps with a CoC+Protector build, though, I have a character which focuses on it. If you have a Protector, any critical hits will generate power charges, including the skill with which you are triggering CoC - so you can never run out of charges as long you are only casting one Cold Snap per critical hit. With an EE setup, you get 50% penetration and Shock with Arc. Alternatively, you can just stack attack speed and expend the power charges to overcome the 50ms cooldown on CoC (this is currently the only way you can do so - the "expend a power charge to reset cooldown" mechanic of Cold Snap trumps the 50ms cooldown created by the CoC support gem). For all this effort, you'd have trouble out-DPSing Discharge, though. ronya fucked around with this message at 11:29 on Feb 11, 2016 |
