Okay so I'm doing Rodent's Searing Touch Scorching Ray Inquisitor right now and I want to switch to having RF too. What do I need to get that rolling? I think: Rise of the Phoenix, Purity of Fire, Barbarism, a Ruby Flask... what else? Even all those things only gives me ~+500life/sec, which doesn't feel extremely comfortable.

Quixzlizx posted:I still don't understand how prophecies work, even after asking in guild chat and reading the wiki article. You spend a silver coin. Navali tells you something will happen. It happens, sometimes. The prophecy is consumed and it won't happen anymore, unless you roll the prophecy again. That's it. That's all that there is.

Okay, I switched over to RF/Scorching Ray Inquis and it's great damage, but I need help with sustainability. https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Jinnigan/characters Not really sure what I can do to fix things - feels like I take too long to heal up when I take big hits. I've got a budget of ~20 liquid chaos to play with, maybe up to 40 if I switch over some other currency or some of my items finally sell

I'm browsing through the Chinese q&a thread with Erik and here's some cool highlights: "We are working at upgrading the player class models, but it is a very long process since it involves modifications to all animations and armours. By now the game has so much content so changes like this take time. I was actually looking at one of the work in progress player models earlier today, and I am very keen to get them into the game! Also I can confirm that the Templar will get pants in this update." We are working on new portraits, and I can give you a small work in progress image of one of the Scion portraits.

We are experimenting with a system that could allow skin effects like tattoos and different skin tones at the moment. Please be patient while we are developing this kind of thing. Q: Is possible the chararter have gender for each classes? A: This would take a lot of resources to do, and while I'm not completely ruling it out, if we did it, it would be far into the future.

Trying to figure out a ~max block necromancer running... frost blades?? with crown of eyes?? could be spec throw too, I guess, but the single target is bad enough. Any suggestions on improvements? I have to trim 10 points, and also I'm open to other skills, such as: switch it to a fukken wander http://poeurl.com/brSv <--tree or pastebin --> https://pastebin.com/i4yW0BP0

awesmoe posted:Steam/reddit guides for identifying valuable gear seem to ignore sockets/links entirely - is it just expected that people will do their own fusing/chromatic-ing ? Sockets absolutely don't matter unless you have 5links, or 6links. In that case, colors might be an additional value added if you have a very rare color combo - 5 blue on a pure dex base - and that rare color combo is a popular one for that item. (Maybe spellcaster's are hot for Perfect Form, for some reason. Just to imagine one)

Comparing wander pathfinder vs glacial cascade mines, and assuming a starter budget of, let's say, 100c - how much worse will gc mines clearspeed be than kb pathfinder? how much worse at bosskilling will wander be than gc mines?

What's this boot worth? Rarity: Rare Entropy Road Goliath Greaves -------- Quality: +20% (augmented) Armour: 226 (augmented) -------- Requirements: Level: 60 Str: 95 -------- Sockets: B-G-R-R -------- Item Level: 76 -------- 16% increased Attack and Cast Speed if you've Killed Recently -------- +28 to Strength +11 to Armour +69 to maximum Life +41% to Cold Resistance +23% to Lightning Resistance 30% increased Movement Speed I can tell that the value is somewhere between 1ex and 25ex... but nothing more specific than that :\

Control Volume posted:So after doing a lot of skill variations, tree tweaks, and other fun things, I think I finalized my martyr of innocence inquisitor build. Its focus is almost entirely on using eye of innocence to trigger vengeance/CWDT setups and constantly buff myself and debuff enemies while setting everything including myself on fire. With a cool ~700c you can get the stuff for The Red Nightmare for a grand total of 63% base block chance and pretty much always be at 6 endurance charges, everything is consecrated ground, fortify is always up, a chaos golem is always up, the enemy is always blind, and it somehow has 11k armor because WHY NOT. Enfeeble (and a purity if it fits) will also be tossed in the mix once I get The Red Dream and can drop Warlord's Mark. drat son, can you post a link or pob? that sounds stupid, and also, fun as gently caress

If you're wearing cold volkuurs gloves, will cold res pierce increase your poison (by making the initial hit bigger?) e: another question i have is, the gloves say "cold damage can poison," does that mean i have to find a separate source of poison for chaos damage?

The War for the Atlas is really fantastic, it fundamentally fixes min-maxing the atlas by making it always dynamic and always changing. If they just moved density or layouts or whatever around we'd always eventually figure out the most efficient path, but since the map's going to be changing depending on what we run, that's simply no longer an option. Really an A+ lesson learned from the shifting zones during Mayhem and Turmoil events.

Those built-in links are part of the expansion, right? So that means this mechanic is always going to be around, and not just for this league? I guess they're really pleased with the builds that The Tempest Binding opened up?

bv-decay is really good+fun but frankly it's less efficient than ed-contagion and if you're going to play a pseudo-melee character why not just play... a real melee character. also allelopathy is now 150c (pretty sure these 22c ones are fake)

Lechtansi posted:What search are you using for Allelopathy? I'm looking on harbinger right now and they are 1c. I mean, i know its a dead league but I was planning on playing BV Decay in abyss and 150c is a lot. I'm talking about in Mayhem Looks like they've stabilized around 60c Honestly though the build is quite powerful already with ed/contagion/blight+3 supports in a tabula rasa

How do you get more survivability with an occultist ED/Cont/Blight build? I have basically no gear but right now I've got about 3.5k hp and 3k ES, which is... pretty squishy, and I'm only in white maps. Or maybe a more inclusive question is: how do I scale up ed/cont/blight occultist from low gear? This is my first time playing this build and I love it a lot but I dunno what to prioritize for gearing. https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Jinnigan/characters??characterName=HeiJinJian Jinnigan fucked around with this message at 01:10 on Nov 28, 2017 |

So I like this build a lot, I've improved my equipment to about ~4.5k hp and 4.4k ES, but I still feel pretty squishy - specifically I'm dying a lot in the high yellows, especially on Invasion maps. Any suggestions on how to improve survivability? I guess I could switch over to BV/Decay and grab a cwdt/ic and Vaal Discipline?

Yeah besides the leech changes and qotf change there haven't been really any nerfs. Pure Physical Wander might be more viable now with the shield node changes, kinetic blast remains just through the roof. Reave got buffed which is nice, I was thinking about doing that build. And necromancers got a big buff. Dang.

Kild posted:Sure people optimize for the next best thing when they wouldn't otherwise but uh that usually just winds up getting nerfed too it seems. Also a lot of their nerfs completely gut things and take years to fix usually. If they even get fixed sometimes they just get superseded like Elemental hit and Wild Strike. Kinetic blast hasn't even been touched so i don't know what anyone is getting in a hoopla about
