[tidal carbon]

Anyone got a good blood mage or infernalist build i can follow?

[pearl sluice]

I'm trying one right now, but i don't know how good it'll turns out

[hybrid ocean]

Anyone know if this guy applies before or after resistances?

[north gull]

are flicker steop builds stil lgood

[calm wraith]

ah i recall in poe1 there's a site you can go to to see builds and IIRC you can look at builds based on the skills they use? is there something like that or close to that for poe2 yet? or is it still too early

[misty shell]

Thank you! Is there specific nodes you go for?

[still rock]

Unsure, I'd assume after - but even then it's just a temporary solution unique, you're losing the main source of armour from a build in using this so it's mostly moot by a certain point in the game

[mystic shard]

[calm wraith]

ah its called poe.ninja for poe1, havent found anything like it for poe2 maybe it exists and i just am missing it?

[long timber]

question

what would be the best scaling skill

with alot of attack speed

[opaque sparrow]

Charged staff

🙃

Idk

[long timber]

charged staff is not even a attack

what

[still rock]

Doesn't yet

[opaque sparrow]

That's a terrible question lol. What kind of build are you looking to play

[still rock]

as far as ive seen

[opaque sparrow]

It produces a Shockwave that counts as an attack 🙃

[calm wraith]

okay, bummer but ty. Mainly looking for a way to get a quick glimpse of support gems people are using on different skills

looking for some inspo

[elder nebula]

does armor/evasion get diminishing returns? not talking about the percentages, i mean like using the actual damage values you take

[still rock]

GGG doesn't have PoE 2 open as API service like PoE 1 does with your character on your account screen on their website so that will have to happen first for PoeNinja2.0 to exist

[stray zealot]

Is there an in-game debuff for intimidate? I'm trying to figure out why Blackheart isn't more popular, and I'm only hitting on it either being bugged, or people not realising intimidate was changed

[opaque sparrow]

I'm almost 100% there are diminishing returns

[long timber]

something with alot of attack speed

im just wondering what skill i should be thinking about

[elder nebula]

so is it more efficient to go for mixed armor+evasion?

[opaque sparrow]

Charged staff monk.... lightning arrow ranger...

[long timber]

wont the mana cost kill me

:?

[hybrid ocean]

Was thinking about putting it back in after acquiring Knightly Tenets

[opaque sparrow]

No?

[orchid rapids]

Do "hits" still count if you are actively blocking or does it negate them?

[opaque sparrow]

Id assume so, but you're going to be splitting up your passive tree too, so the math might not math

[hybrid ocean]

I'm using it for a full tank gemling PotCG build

[gray ferry]

idk if it's the exact same in poe2 but ain't the way armour works that it's weaker against big hits and more effective against small hits

and for evasion that you eventually will get hit

[opaque sparrow]

Yes

[still rock]

youre still losing your best source of flat armor in using the unique

[civic pivot]

Are rune sockets on weapons a global modifier? Like, when I put iron runs in my Xbow for physical damage, I noticed it didn’t reflect an actual weapon physical damage increase (unlike the actual prefix).

[opaque sparrow]

Damage reduction vs damage avoidance

[elder nebula]

kinda depends cause some areas of the tree have a bunch of armor+evasion % nodes. but then whats the point of keystones like "converts all evasion to armor"?

isnt that just less efficient then?

[hybrid ocean]

Yeah, but you can still get a reasonable amount from belt, shoes and helmet, especially with iron reflexes

[long timber]

would ice shot scale well with attack speed :?

[opaque sparrow]

You'll find those predominantly near merc area

[opaque sparrow]

As for this, yeah, it's probably pretty niche just a different build

[hybrid ocean]

Speaking of, is there any way to input a weighted sum of actual stats rather than modifiers into the trade website?

[gusty bone]

Do totems use your increases to damage?

[still rock]

Give it a shot then ig theres not much downside if you have a large source of armor elsewhere because if its not enough phys mitigation youll likely notice

[gray ferry]

I think there was a thread post in #1308715317375270952 about it

[still rock]

but I wouldnt plan around it being reliable

[long timber]

how long does it take for this skill to be fully charged and why does it not say anywhere

[gray ferry]

depends on your attack speed

I think

[opaque sparrow]

Take a long time

The exact opposite of what you're looking for

[long timber]

does it take 1 attack?

[still rock]

its pretty fast with a bow with a large amt of IAS

[long timber]

worth of channeling?

[still rock]

but its really only useful for single target

not as a clear skill

[long timber]

what if you fork

[opaque sparrow]

Pierce 🙃

[long timber]

or pierce

or chain of terrain

[still rock]

youd moreso want to scale the area of the explosion

try it

[long timber]

well how does the channeling work

[bronze nebula]

what build can utilize this node the best?

[still rock]

its not going to be comparable to clear skills is all im getting at lol

[long timber]

right

[still rock]

its good for bosses and high hp rares

[rugged kraken]

a fireball build would greatly benefit from this

[long timber]

does fully channeling that attack take time equal to 1 attack?

or how does it work

[bronze nebula]

can it be good as a blood mage? got a blood mage i dont like atm

[still rock]

not even sure how to answer that lol

you channel one attack

[long timber]

for how long?

[still rock]

literally just try it lol

[long timber]

true

[rugged kraken]

nobody likes there blood mage. People are having huge difficulties scaling the blood mage into end game atm. Most succesfful ive seen go the completely other way and go melee

[granite ice]

Which is the best DESTILED for galvanic mercenary?

[still rock]

Wonder if all it would take is adding a significant % mana cost reduction to skills on the first node

[hybrid ocean]

Yeah, likely true. Actually dying to physical damage is a pretty big worry.

Of course, the whole idea is dead on arrival if the armour applies before resistances

Since the effectiveness of armour depends on the incoming damage

[bronze nebula]

poor blood mages :/

[long timber]

does dps calculated reload time? for crossbows?

or does it just assume you have infinite ammo

[opaque sparrow]

The dps number from the skill menu is useless

[long timber]

oh

it doesnt account for alot of things?

[opaque sparrow]

Correct

[long timber]

dang

i was going of that thinking it was giving a rough estimate

XD

[rugged kraken]

well its ultimately a tree HP/regen scaling issue

[still rock]

But mana cost reduction would effectively reduce the life cost as well

[rugged kraken]

because like for example. If you wanna scale MoM its cake right you can get tons of regen and have MASIVE mana pool. You cant do that with health right

if you wanted to scale ES you can also do that

[opaque sparrow]

You MIGHT be able to use it to gauge which one of your skills is doing the most dmg. Couldn't tell you about merc reload time

[leaden stirrup]

is Gore Spike on blood mage bugged?

no changes in tooltips

[long timber]

what is gauge

[rugged kraken]

Yah I see what your saying but it would make stuff for other classes inconsequential and they want mana to be meaningful in this game

[rugged kraken]

Ive seen several people ask on this chat if it even works. I have not seen any confirmation that it does or doesnt work

[leaden stirrup]

well if we just go by tooltips, it doesn't change anything

[wary canopy]

I assume if a unique grants a skill, then triggers that skill in some way, it always triggers the version granted by the item? I can't make it trigger a higher level version of the skill I also have equipped?

[rugged kraken]

well we cant really trust tooltips right lol look at poe 1

[still rock]

I think it makes the ascendancy more interesting, allows blood mage to fill a niche where you can use higher mana scaling skills more easily by mitigating the mana cost by using your life

depends on the actual value

[rugged kraken]

My thought was possibly merging the 10% spell leech with the first node.. and maybe create something to help scale hp better in place of the lost node

[leaden stirrup]

well it is kinda difficult to test so the tooltips are the only thing to reasonably go off

[still rock]

Yeah I could see that working too

[rugged kraken]

I understnad lol

[leaden stirrup]

guess i'll just spec out of it anyway

bonestorm and detonate date are busted anyway lol

[rugged kraken]

Detonate dead really did feel good doesnt it?

[tawny imp]

anyone know what stats will scale fire thorns damage? i heard fire pen and fire exposure do but that's not really increasing damage, just increasing how much of my damage actually goes through.

[long timber]

hm can you guys tell if attack speed made the channel faster?

[leaden stirrup]

btw just for my information, is the bug for bonestorm casting without move penalty reported?

if not i should go report it

[still rock]

use snipe once on a boss then die, record two videos, one with the node and one without and compare damage numbers because it should be significantly higher with the node

just an idea

easy way to guarantee the crit

[leaden stirrup]

bruh i ain't doin all that lol

[still rock]

ok

[orchid rapids]

First shot is faster but only by about a second.

[long timber]

thats alot

theres only 25 percent attack speed diff

do you think i can spam sniper if i get insane attack speed

[orchid rapids]

Probably

[rugged kraken]

I like his idea on how to actually test it

[long timber]

wait snipe

always crits aswell?

[still rock]

If you get the perfect timing window yes

[forest wind]

could someone tell me how totems work if they have a weapon requirment dous that mean that if i switch to my other weapon the totem disapears?

[long timber]

wait

if you overcharge it doesnt crit anymore?

[languid epoch]

guys how much resists i need extra to bypass elemental weakness? 110?

[still rock]

if you dont hit the perfect window timing it does not crit or explode

[long timber]

dam

that sucks

[still rock]

Assailum makes it easy as fuck

[long timber]

assailum?

[still rock]

im using it for now

delirium unique

[long timber]

whats that

what is it

what does it do

[long timber]

oh

wait

thats

counter synergy

[still rock]

you arent using only snipe in your build

its not a clear skill

as i said before lol

[long timber]

is that item 1 exalt?

[still rock]

yeah its cheap

[long timber]

hmm

wait i need strength wtfek

[still rock]

its fun to use, probably better to use a rare later but w/e

[long timber]

well

i might need it

if im going to be stacking attack speed

i wonder if the perfect time window

will go down as i stack attack speed

or if that one will stack the same

[bold pulsar]

Anyone know if its possible to block aoe damage somehow?

[still rock]

I dont think IAS reduces the timing window, just the time it takes to get to that window from the start of the channel

[rugged kraken]

I know you can dodge it.

[still rock]

but I could be wrong

[long timber]

then my build

could actually work

hm

[elder nebula]

where can i find how armor is calculated in poe 2?

[bold pulsar]

Anyone?

[dawn spire]

Hold alt and hover over perfect timing for more info. It might have it in there

[dawn spire]

I thought there was a keystone that let you do that, but I'm not sure

[hushed umbra]

Does minion pacts increase essence drain dot?

[bold pulsar]

Keystone?

[dawn spire]

Email GGG and ask nicely because no one knows

[bold pulsar]

They wont tell

[dawn spire]

But don't actually do that tho

For legal reasons I have to say /s

[still rock]

Warbringer node

[long timber]

its not underlined on the skill and the skill doesnt have any info on it

[bold pulsar]

I asked a GGG employee about poison and how its calculated with gas grenade, and was told they arent allowed to disclose how the game functions

[dawn spire]

It is in assailum. Weird

Or is that just a wiki link?

[long timber]

question

[still rock]

be Warbringer or use Wailing Wall unique

[long timber]

the skill says explode onm impact

[still rock]

only sources I'm aware of

[long timber]

is piercing impacting?

can it explode multiple times?

[still rock]

yeah thats our job

[elder nebula]

is it too different from poe 1?

[kindred junco]

does charm effects stack on each other?
like can i have tripple fire res and have +75fire res?

[bold pulsar]

@still rock Thats silly considered there are missing details at this moment

[still rock]

it's early access

half the game is bugged

[bold pulsar]

Yeah of course, no criticism about that

[woven stone]

Q: What are good runes to slot into my Widowhail?

[still rock]

My piunt being that a good amt of the time I bet you most GGG employees dont even know how it works

[dawn spire]

We don't know

[bold pulsar]

Probably

[opaque sparrow]

Quick question, is there any inherent stat gain as you level, outside of gear/passive tree?

Like do you gain 10hp per level etc

[long timber]

can this explode multiple times with pierce/chain

[still rock]

so they tell them not to say anything so they arent giving misinfo spread by an authority

[bold pulsar]

I had to give up on my gas grenade build because I couldnt get the appropriate information on how aspects of it worked. Its a bit frustrating

[opaque sparrow]

In my experience, it will explode when it can no longer pierce

[woven stone]

pretty sure its on impact so pierce is bad

[long timber]

so only at the end?

what about chain?

[opaque sparrow]

Correct

[woven stone]

correct

[dawn spire]

I would wager it would. Most things that only occur on the final target say so.

I also think that I even tried it and it worked. But I might have only tried scattershot...

[opaque sparrow]

Probably same

[opaque sparrow]

Show the other tab for that

[dawn spire]

Do we know what "on impact" means?

I guess it's not "on hit"...

[still rock]

I'm assuming you want +proj and not pierce

[woven stone]

if it hits a target or collides with a wall?

[dawn spire]

but if it forks, pieces, or chains, it still hits the target before doing other stuff

[still rock]

My best guess is that it would be the initial hit or final destination of the projectile

[dawn spire]

It should be very easy to test

[woven stone]

i can test it?

[long timber]

i think "on impact" means Not chain/pierce/fork

and has lowest prio

it definitly doesnt work for pierce

[dawn spire]

But look at storm caller arrow by Comparison. That one specificially says final target

[long timber]

not sure about fork/chain

[gray ferry]

ok sweet it does seem like the self damage counts as a hit

[woven stone]

pretty sure it fork explodes on hit

and then forks

don't think its good though

[long timber]

i mean

fork create more projectiles

so i think it makes sense

[dawn spire]

What's the damage penalty on fork?

[still rock]

+proj would give you additional explosions though

[still rock]

no

[long timber]

i think on explode "just consumes the projectile"

[woven stone]

50 less

[dawn spire]

Oof

[long timber]

after forking

only

50 less after forking

[woven stone]

^

[long timber]

not 50 on the entire skill like chain

[still rock]

Fork creates additional projectiles from the hit, not from the attack source, so it's completely different

[dawn spire]

Oh, that's significantly less oof

[woven stone]

yeah but you could get better stuff on Snipe

[long timber]

like?

[still rock]

Use a doublestring bow

be ranger

[woven stone]

i personnally wouldn't use it to clear whites

[still rock]

that too

its not a clear skill

[dawn spire]

Not with that attitude

[long timber]

but its the only skill i could find with a constant

mana cost

in relation to attack speed

[woven stone]

Window of Opportunity + Supercritical + Concentrated Effect atleast

[still rock]

its not a skill that would clear effectively in comparison to other skills that dont force you to not move for 1-3seconds at a time

is that fair?:) lol

[long timber]

well with attack speed it might be instant

[still rock]

its not

[woven stone]

you still need to hit that perfect timing

[still rock]

its just faster

[long timber]

ok so what if u stack alot of attackspeed

[woven stone]

I use Snipe mainly for Rares / Bosses

[long timber]

is there even a cap to attack speed?

[woven stone]

prob not

[long timber]

hmm

gemlin prob has fastest attackspeed

[woven stone]

but there is almost no More Attack Speed

[woven stone]

how so?

[still rock]

its nutty for bosses with like 4 or 5 frenzy charges you legit just do 75% of a bosses hp lol

[long timber]

is there any source of more attack speed?

you said "almost none"

[woven stone]

FlickerStrike has it on its skill ;p

I use Barrage + Snipe

[cedar fossil]

any recommendations for a notable to put on my amulet for lightning arrow / herald of ice / lightning rod / cast on shock etc build

[woven stone]

currently not using marks

[cedar fossil]

ranger

[still rock]

frenzy charges and barrage specifically is what i mean

[long timber]

martial tempo has "more attack speed?

right?

[long timber]

also

warbanner has more accuracy

[woven stone]

I sadly use Martial Tempo on my clear skill ;p

[long timber]

and accuracy could be converted into attack speed

wait hold up

isnt warbanner op?

[still rock]

Nobody is stopping you from making a bad build we're just giving you advice lol

[woven stone]

i mean its not bad

[long timber]

oh warbringer is more attack but increased accuracy :C

[woven stone]

you can use snipe with ignite and spread?

[still rock]

to solely use snipe for clear would be bad

[cerulean girder]

jsut wanna confirm, i can change this annoint whenever i want right?

[still rock]

in terms to relative clear speeds

[long timber]

i mean everything will be bad

[cerulean girder]

or is it like runes

[long timber]

im just making a silly attack speed builkd

[cerulean girder]

forever there

[still rock]

Go for it

[urban vessel]

does execrate work with the electrocute support gem? to increase electrocute buildup

[still rock]

What sources of ignite prolif exist rn? I havent looked at all of them

[woven stone]

support gem, Wildfire

[dawn spire]

I believe you can apply a new anoint to overwrite the prior one

[cerulean girder]

thanks!

[still rock]

This gets generic area modifiers or no?

I havent figured that out yet

[woven stone]

ailments are based on your hit

[still rock]

Area of effect

[woven stone]

yes

[still rock]

Cool

[woven stone]

i believe there is ~2 ignite spread

one might be a unique ring

[still rock]

losing a support kinda sucks

[woven stone]

agreed

[cerulean girder]

wait where my amulet go

[signal sable]

Does the "allies in your presence " mods on sceptres count as auras for the passive tree nodes in the middle left hand side of the tree? Or is this just from thing like purities or discipline?

[still rock]

Ah yeah Cracklecreep ring

[woven stone]

thats the one

[still rock]

but it specifically mentions them having to stay in the area for 2 seconds

which kinda sounds ass

[woven stone]

true

[still rock]

Wildfire does too damn

ignite prolif dead

rip

[woven stone]

ignite feels the weakest ailment atm

i'm going to try bow bleed now

poison is pretty decent

I personally just don't like the skills for it.

[cerulean girder]

@dawn spire hmm my amulet disappeared lol

[still rock]

Poisonburst is fun

[frosty arrow]

what exactly does magnitude of poison affects? I don't see my poisonburst arrow getting any extra damage from getting more magnitude nodes

[dawn spire]

I'd try relogging, check your stash, or the anoint thing again

[void barn]

What are bloodmages building, i was doing hexblast but it kinda feels bad

[woven stone]

I am very much interested in 2H sword / Axe, Spear / Dagger ...

[dawn spire]

Are you looking at the gem dps tooltip? That does not take into account ailments at all

[still rock]

It makes the poison do more damage not the initial hit

[cerulean girder]

oh my god it was in the annoint interface, thats crazy thanks!

almost had a heartattack

[still rock]

Dagger is gunna be sick as hell i think

[woven stone]

I hope so

[frosty arrow]

well, yeah since poisonburst arrow has second tab for the burst. I thought it'd show me the damage of the dot

[still rock]

There's so much more flavor in the attack skills now that they're based on an individual weapon

[frosty arrow]

I guess there's no way to tell then \

[woven stone]

i btw have about ~5 Gemling Legionaires 😜

[dawn spire]

Nope. You can only see hit dps of your skills

[frosty arrow]

right

that means I'm going to be doing this chaos poison bow monk build blind I suppose

[still rock]

it should tell you the estimated poison damage in the detailed window

[frosty arrow]

it doesn't

[still rock]

atleast it does for things with envenom

[dawn spire]

Tbf, the tooltip dps for hit builds is also highly inaccurate. We're all blind

[woven stone]

it also doesn't tell you chance to Ailment (Poison / ignite / etc.)

[frosty arrow]

at least with hit build numbers go up. Trigger something in my ape brain. This one nothing goes up as I keep pumping points in the tree

[night shadow]

do increased Global Physical Damage apply before the skill converts the dmg to other elements?

[woven stone]

What do you guys think are good runes for Widowhail?

[still rock]

all the built-in poison arrow skills all deal an amt of poison dmg as a % of your base weapon damage as if they were an attack so just make that number go higher its not that complicated

[woven stone]

i believe so yes

[frosty arrow]

why even bother with poison magnitude then. Or any poison nodes for that matter

[woven stone]

be default ailments does 25% of your hit damage per second

so lets say you deal 1000 damage, you have 250 damage per second ailment, but you can increase it with magnitude

[still rock]

because it increases the calculation from attack damage magnified to poison damage

[lucid glade]

I have 2793 mana, mana stacking sorc (currently fireball/icewall, perhaps spark later) and I have enough for a 28% everlasting gaze amulet, do I switch to 1HP with CI ? And then I'll be broke. Or do I wait a bit more. Still at the end of act 2 cruel btw

[woven stone]

and magnitude do come in larger percentages. compared to damage percentage

[still rock]

this doesnt apply to the built-in poison bow skills rn from my understanding, thats for generic poison from hits

[woven stone]

yep some skills apply damage of ailment differently

[still rock]

they're separate things but both count as poison for calculations from magnitude and both deal chaos damage etc

[frosty arrow]

so poison magnitude is pointless for poisonburst arrow?

I'm so confused

[still rock]

#2┃build-planning message

[woven stone]

TBF ailment calculation is completely different from PoE 1.

I'm also scratching my head from time to time.

I refund a lot of skill tree points

I also am close to thinking going for jewel slots only, might be better a lot of times.

[drowsy tinsel]

Did any aspects of the Mercs support gems for explosive grenades change? Tying to follow a YT guide but I don’t see a couple of the gems they’re talking about.

[woven stone]

for instance,

a jewel can ahve attack damage / attack speed / damage with "bow" all together ...

[woven stone]

they don't have specific ascendancy points for it

[drowsy tinsel]

Not sure what you mean? Only level 19 right now

[long timber]

what is this node for

does more skill speed multiple only skill speed or also attackspeed/cast speed?

[still rock]

It basically does a much stronger poison than if you were to poison through using your basic attack and get the same exact damage of hit, because it adds a calculation of attack damage to determine the base damage before magnitude rather than the normal % taken from a hit that doesnt have a built-in poison effect

[leaden stirrup]

both

[still rock]

thats my understanding of it at least

[long timber]

doesnt answer

my question

[still rock]

it quite literally does

[long timber]

no

[woven stone]

Increases and reduction to Skill Speed stack additively with increases and reductions to Attack Speed, Cast Speed, and similar stats.

[long timber]

my question is if 25% more skill speed will first multiple with my skill speed and then additively add to my attackspeed

[still rock]

Read it again

lol

[long timber]

or if it will multiple 25% with my attack and skill speed

[drowsy tinsel]

For instance, one of the support gems is “fire infusion” though I don’t see it as an option

[still rock]

keep reading it over and over

until it clicks

[long timber]

you guys

dont understand

[leaden stirrup]

what a way to ask for help

[long timber]

im asking a different question

lol

[leaden stirrup]

it's literally general attack speed

[woven stone]

click this, to see all skills that work with your selected skill

[leaden stirrup]

so it will do both

[frosty arrow]

so magnitude does matter? I'm giving up on this. There seems to be no definitive answers. Game says nothing changes

[leaden stirrup]

it will x0.25 both your attack and your cast speed

[long timber]

okay thanks

[leaden stirrup]

since it's a MORE multiplier

[long timber]

the way it reads i thought it means i would multipli "Skill speed" then additively add to attack speed.

[still rock]

Considering poison magnitude is the quality for poisonburst arrow id highly doubt its not intended to work

[leaden stirrup]

if you are using a spells, it's like a 25% more cast speed

if you are using attacks, it's 25% more attack speed

[long timber]

yeah i wish the description said that

instead

its not really saying that atm

[still rock]

And we've learned over the last decade to not trust tooltip damage numbers lol

[frosty arrow]

Man, can you just say yes or no. No need for the riddles

[still rock]

Im trying to help you

[woven stone]

it does matter.

[leaden stirrup]

well, it does, once you understand that skill speed is just the way they have worded "general speed of execution of your abilities"

[still rock]

understand the mechanic

[woven stone]

higher magnitueds is more powerful

[urban vessel]

is the electrocute buildup from support gems affected by "ailment chance" modifiers?

[long timber]

the tooltip only says "Increases and decreases to Skill Speed"

[frosty arrow]

I'm trying to get helped. But I want answers. I understand that magnitude is supposed to multiply how much of initial hit is taken into account to increase poison dot. But poisonburst isn't chance based poison, it's guaranteed. And numbers don't change. That is all

[muted spire]

Guys best gems for spark as a witch minion user ?

[long timber]

if i have 0 skill speed and i get 25%more skill speed i could assume it does nothing

and then adds to my attack speed/cast speed

[pastel latch]

Hey guys, i play monk now and use tempest bell I'm just curious whether do i give more damage when i hit bell by my staff or by skills?

[woven stone]

thats fine, it just means you garantee a poison ailment, the damage of the skill + magnitude still applies to overall poison ailment damage

[leaden stirrup]

you have a basic speed of attacking/casting

so it would use that

[long timber]

also no reason to add "Skill Speed" into the game

just make every node that says skill speed.

say Attack speed and Cast speed.

[woven stone]

attack speed only works for attacks, not spells

its a balancing thing (pretty sure)

[leaden stirrup]

it's a few nodes that would be useful for hybrid builds

that use both spells and attacks

like monks or w/e

or maybe even other classes actually

[long timber]

well im saying if 25%more Skill Speed is just 25% more attack speed and 25% more cast speed

why not just say that on the node

and remove skill speed from the game.

[woven stone]

welcome to GGG

this is why PoB was invented

[long timber]

its unnecesairly extra term that does functionaly nothing

[leaden stirrup]

i guess they could do that i guess, idk

[long timber]

unless i am misunderstanding

[woven stone]

Attack speed, is for attacking.
Cast speed, for casting.
Skill speed, for all skills.

there is a difference, since i can't get a lot of cast speed in the bottom section of the tree. so there for I'm unable to cast faster then top side of tree.

however i can take some skill speed to use that to my advantage instead.

[snow sierra]

because skillspeed is the parent of attackspeed and cast speed, and both Extending the main class, the hole game is written like programming xD

[still rock]

skill speed = cast speed and attack speed effectively added together to be the same thing, there also happen to be skills that are not spells or attacks that have use times so it those few scenarios it does something additional as well

hence the extra wording

[woven stone]

its a complex game for sure.

theory crafting is fun ;p

trying to make a build work is interesting.

:
Now I want some help ;p

[long timber]

wait does attack speed increase reload speed on crossbows?

[woven stone]

what do I slot in my windowhail QQ

been thinking about Attack speed by 5% but flat damage is also really good.

[vernal lion]

So I want to make a melee witchunter just to test it out. Would try to use the 3 dragons helmet to lightning proc slam attacks. any suggestions?

[still rock]

For what skill

[vestal heart]

can you hit a target multiple times with scatter shot?

[long timber]

is this true?

[vernal lion]

yes 100%

[woven stone]

not sure yet, but lets say snipe / ice shot / spiiral volley

[long timber]

so 1 attack speed ads 1 reload speed aswell?

[woven stone]

it increases Crossbow reload speed yes

[long timber]

at the same rate?

[vernal lion]

Its a calculation based on reload speed and attack speed but yea

[lucid glade]

I have 2793 mana, mana stacking sorc (currently fireball/icewall, perhaps spark later) and I have enough for a 28% everlasting gaze amulet, do I switch to 1HP with CI ? And then I'll be broke. Or do I wait a bit more. Still at the end of act 2 cruel btw

[long timber]

or some wierd converion

[woven stone]

can't say for sure

but i personally think attack speed is better then reload speed.

so i rather go for attack speed nodes then reload speed nodes on the tree

[vernal lion]

Tested out the reload thing it gets noticeably faster if you have attack speed and reload speed

[long timber]

i didnt even know attack speed increased reload speed

[snow sierra]

I am planning a hexblast infernalist Lifestacking with these 3, using the infernalist to solve the mana issues i call it better bloodmage kinda hyped how it will turn out:

[woven stone]

yeah I played a shit ton of merc with multiple different weapons xD

friend of mine now is playing explosive shot.

[vestal heart]

does scattershot allow you to hit a target multiple times

[woven stone]

yeah scattershot is different for Bow / Crossbow

bow it shoots projectiles in a cone.
crossbow it shots multiple projectiles at your target

[vernal lion]

trying to make a melee build for witchhunter. Want to make a 3 dragons version of a mace build

[long timber]

where can you see attack speed on your char?

[vernal lion]

under character (c)

Or under the specific skill

[long timber]

its not there

[woven stone]

skill

[vestal heart]

im thinking of using it on shattering palm going a stagger monk build

[long timber]

i have to manually count all attack speed nodes in my passive tree?

[scarlet oasis]

Is there any unique that grants alot of strength?

[still rock]

i think ticaba for crit and citaqualotl for ele dmg or quipolatl for attack speed

[still rock]

those sound the best

[long timber]

Meginord rawhide belt

[woven stone]

yeah but the crit base is so darn low (5%)

[vernal lion]

Meginord belt

[long timber]

what is the base attack speed?

[vernal lion]

Crit feels like a trap XD

[woven stone]

make a new char?

[woven stone]

oh no, not if you go ailments

since ailments scale on hit damage, crit is pretty good

[gusty flicker]

what is the best rune/soul core if youre already res capped? (ranger if that matters)

[vernal lion]

I like to use luck XD to max roll damage

[woven stone]

yes.

[still rock]

true youd really only benefit from snipe

probably the WED then

[woven stone]

yes that is my current build

snipe and bleed

[still rock]

i mean the crit dmg

[woven stone]

haven't found a bleed spread yet

[still rock]

would only benefit from snipe

because ur base crit is so low

[vernal lion]

Got any suggestions for a melee witchunter shock condition build?

[woven stone]

yeah that is my current setup ;p

[still rock]

no other skills?

[woven stone]

going to acts atm

since i wanted a witchhunter not gemling for this

even though gemling would be better

for crit dmg

[long timber]

i dont understand reload speed

[still rock]

the pop sounds more effective for this game in particular

clear speed meta 😥

[vernal lion]

Gemling has some great potential. Just looking for gems that scale well

[scarlet oasis]

Is there a way to lower cost of using giants blood for a weapon without getting reduced attribute on weapon?

[woven stone]

i got about 5 gemlings

[still rock]

gemling sounds good if you have 50 divines

[sonic blade]

Im playing minion Gemling

[woven stone]

are my main ones

[vernal lion]

Think there is a pair of gloves that just require 2x attribute

[long timber]

1.6 attack per second is the base attacks speed and 0.8 second is the reload speed.

[woven stone]

since CoC is not in a good place right now, this one is not yet played ;p

[scarlet oasis]

Does anyone know the name of them?

[vernal lion]

Treefingers
Riveted Mitts

[long timber]

but on this cross bow that gives me 30 percent attack speed and -30 reload speed i somehow have lower reloadtime then the time mentioned?

[sonic blade]

Im struggling to figure out what jewels to target for Minion Gemling

[modern tangle]

gloves say Giant's Blood so they got changed when keystone did.

[sonic blade]

Should I focus them on res?

[cinder steeple]

So quick question: If I wanted to build a Bloodmage, what should I keep in mind? Mana and life leech right?

[still rock]

theyre different bases

[long timber]

yes

this one has 1.21

[vernal lion]

dang. Out of luck then.

[long timber]

but why do i have 1.72 reload time

and not 1.21

[woven stone]

it doesn't get updated, reduced still has to apply

[still rock]

bruh

lol

[scarlet oasis]

So it just gives me the passive and doesn't reduce the attribute cost?

[long timber]

then why is the number blue

[woven stone]

Quality?

[long timber]

rampart raptor has 0.85 reload speed

so it is already applied

why does it apply twice

?

[solid badger]

Which one for my third notable?

[mint citrus]

assuming I have a lot of increased lightning damage already, would a wand with inc spell damage be better than inc lightning dmg?

[long timber]

why does it actually apply twice lol

0.85 / 0.70 = 1.21 reload speed (time mentioned on the crossbow)

1.21 / 0.70 = 1.72 time mentioned on the reload

[still rock]

I dont think local reload speed is affected by local attack speed in this case, maybe it works with global IAS but i havent used them so idk

[long timber]

also attack speed is doing nothing to reload in this case

[solid badger]

It really doesn't matter one way or the other. If you're doing Spell Lightning Damage then Spell Damage and Lightning Damage both give you the same benefit.

[spring temple]

attack speed gives faster reload

[long timber]

then why is my bow twice as slow at reload

from -30 reload

and +30 reload speed

[still rock]

local and global matter here i think

[spring temple]

yeah also 30% less and 30% more dont balance out

[vernal lion]

base reaload is in seconds. A crossbow takes longer to reload than a bow in general. So all multipliers apply to the base time of the respective weapon.

[modern tangle]

• There are soul cores that convert 20% of stat requirement to another stat. Costs a socket on the weapon.
• There are 3 minor nodes at south edge of passive tree that reduce attribute requirements, in a cluster that gives a lot of attributes. If making the character as Gemling Legionnaire then ascensions contain more.
• The Vertex Tribal Mask cuts attribute requirements in half.
• Solus Ipse Grand Visage reduces them by 25%

[mint citrus]

okay, i wasnt sure if I have a bunch of increase for 1 type then the other would give me more benefit

[long timber]

i dont think anyone is understanding my problem i am having

the base reload time of the bow is 0.85 but my reload time is 1.72

the bow only has -30% reduced reload speed

how does it get this number

[solid badger]

There is diminishing returns on all "increased damage" but both Spell Damage and Lightning Damage both go into the same diminishing returns bucket.

[still rock]

where are you reading 1.72

[frail finch]

Can someone explain this to me like Im 5? What are my odds of rolling +spirit on this body armor?... https://poe2db.tw/us/Body_Armours_dex#ModifiersCalc

[maiden stag]

Is a staff or wand better for stormweaver?

[spring temple]

is it actually taking that long?

[woven stone]

is the default speed of basic bold slower?

[vernal lion]

do you have any passives that lower your attack speed.

[woven stone]

can you show to G menu skill info

[spring temple]

that’s an absurd reload time even for basic bolt

[long timber]

this is the bow

[woven stone]

@long timber this

[solid badger]

Depends entirely on the staff and wand. Inherently, and outside of skill weapon requirements, it doesn't matter.

[woven stone]

but for your crossbow

[long timber]

reload speed is not in the tab

[woven stone]

and this

[vernal lion]

attack speed base is 2.08

[long timber]

no in skill tab

[maiden stag]

So basically only the affixes matter?

[solid badger]

Generally I prefer wands, since you can use an offhand for more versatility, but there are situations and stats where a staff is better.

[frail finch]

Could someone explain to me what these odds mean to roll +spirit?

[solid badger]

In most cases, yes.

[frail finch]

8/78?

[woven stone]

you might need to switch the stat page to ammunition and show that aswell

[long timber]

also

[modern tangle]

8 is the amount of tiers, 78 is the item lvl req of highest tier. Affix roll weights aren't known.

[long timber]

attack speed does not effect

reload speed

i dont know where people are getting this from

[long timber]

default crossbow has no ammunation tab

[solid badger]

It's that the faster your attack speed the more often you have to reload, which creates a weird inverse issue where more attack speed is diminished by the number of times you have to relaod.

[still rock]

theyre probably getting it from playing the game and visually testing stuff instead of asking questions about tooltips in Discord

[frail finch]

Oh jeez. So the only thing this site is good for is to check if the item CAN roll which affix you want? As far as I can tell there is no way to look up the exact items ?

[long timber]

but since reload times are the same for most skills

[solid badger]

Generally speaking a slow, higher damage Xbow is better than a fast, low damage Xbow, because of reload.

[long timber]

here is the same problem on a different skill.

1.73s reload time

this time

not 1.72s

this time

haha

[modern tangle]

It's also good for finding the stat groups in case some modifiers exclude each other, and the tags that are relevant for some crafting methods.

[vernal lion]

The number does not change for attack speed. But if you time it it does.

[frail finch]

Hm ok thank you

[long timber]

so no one can explain the 1.73s number

[vernal lion]

Yes dont trust the data in the sheets completely.

[long timber]

im glad im not losing my mind and this Xbow is reloading slower then it should

[vernal lion]

Time the a video with different setups and you will get diffrent resoults for attack speed.

[vernal lion]

The reason may be as it shortens both attack speed and reload animations.

[solid badger]

Also, GGG is not known for having the most accurate tooltips. I wouldn't get hung up on them. Use your best judgement from actual gameplay.

[long timber]

im more consierned with the reduced reload applying twice atm then the attack speed contributing to reload speed atm

[woven stone]

yeah i couldn't say for sure @long timber

this is info that we don't yet know

[still rock]

the skills that reload different bolts most likely have an inherently longer reload time

[woven stone]

^ this could be it

[long timber]

not relevant

to the convo

[solid badger]

There is also a weird interaction with reloading due to being out of ammo and reloading due to switching to a different bolt set.

[long timber]

im using the same attack*

[vernal lion]

They do have different reload times.

[ruby patio]

Which builds do you guys think are the strongest rn

[long timber]

i know some have increased reload time

[still rock]

the screenshots you sent were all from the skills that reload different bolts

why are you so sassy

[woven stone]

it might be that ammunition crossbow skills have a reduce rate on reload speed.

[still rock]

lol

[snow walrus]

Hineveryone can I have some help on a titan build plz

[near jewel]

how can I tell if scavanged armoiur buff actually does anything? there is no icon....does it work when totemz kill?

[long timber]

the screenshots

i send

are all form bow attack

with normal

reload speed

this is a special reload also it would say on the screenshot

this would double the time?

[solid badger]

Remember, tooltips aren't 100% accurate 100% of the time.

[long timber]

i assume.

[solid badger]

Like, they could just be wrong.

[snow walrus]

Anyone would be nice

[long timber]

uh i might as well stop playing the game

at that point

4 second reload lol

[solid badger]

Honestly Jessy, you should leave Xbows alone. They are the weapon in need of the most attention for balancing.

Try a different weapon/build.

It might not be for you.

[long timber]

%reduced reload speed seems to be applied twice

%less reload speed seems to be applied once

[woven stone]

okay hear me out,

what if the reduced reload speed is on the weapon and the ammunition skill

and thus is reduced twice

[spring temple]

does this mean if you get a faster reload xbow

it’ll be crazy fast

[regal turtle]

do bows count as a two-handed weapon

[long timber]

no you can use quiver etc

xbows are 2 handed

[still rock]

lilly was doing some crazy fast reload tech in a build and it looked pretty insane like machine gun constantly

i think it used the reload skill

whatever its called

[long timber]

honestly maybe

[spring temple]

emergency reload

[still rock]

yeah that one

[spring temple]

i just swapped to quarterstaff but when i get bored maybe i’ll look at xbow again

[long timber]

is increased reload speed a modifier you can roll on x bows?

[still rock]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xLPKMLP_8tQ

[solid badger]

check poedb for all affixes

[still rock]

this video

[solid badger]

need the link?

[still rock]

is the one i was referring to

[upper viper]

how are the minion brutes. Worth the try ?

[ruby patio]

Hey guys what are some of the strongest builds rn in your opinion

[still rock]

https://youtu.be/ptnXi3NbQIs?si=wefLARrqlyJcPH0G

this was the completed build using the tech

looks fun

[solid badger]

honestly there are so many that it's a tough question. imo play what you want and you'll likely find a good build for it.

[lunar totem]

Normal Essence into Greater Essence on a Normal Wand should guarantee [%damage] and [+All Element/Chaos skills]

It guarantees it on Chaos,
and if PoE2DB is correct, also guarantees it for any element. The [%Damage as Element] and [% Chance Ailment] mods do not actually have Cold/Fire/Lightning tags on them.
But I haven't tested it in game, and I probably won't as I only need Chaos anyways.

[alpine pecan]

How much increased armour/eva/es do you guys aim for currently? I've been trying to sit around 100% increased es/armour but it still feels like tissue paper.

[undone mortar]

That number alone doesn’t mean anything

[alpine pecan]

i know that

[undone mortar]

You have to look at your total values

If it feels like not enough then get more

[ruby patio]

Appreciate the answer! I’m only playing stuff I think is cool was just curious what the consensus is

[undone mortar]

I sit around 78% evasion 65% armor on my invoker

At level 91

1.4k base es

[alpine pecan]

increased % nodes or your values

[wet kernel]

Would having 80% evasion + 80% armour with 2.3k ES be better than 60% evasion + 60% armour with 3.2k ES?

[solid badger]

I'm about to do my third trial. Which ascendency notable looks better?

[undone mortar]

Total values on my character sheet

[wet kernel]

Depends if u need defences or damage

[earnest walrus]

Whats a good planner for mapping out a build idea? Any site doing it right?

[wet kernel]

Maxroll does it

[ruby patio]

I like the chaos res option

[alpine pecan]

ok well i wasn't looking for that. just seeing what ballpark people are aiming for with increased defenses nodes

[still rock]

hows protect me from harm

feel good?

[undone mortar]

Strong

[still rock]

it sounds insane

[solid badger]

Well, judging by popularity: Infernalist, Deadeye, or Stormweaver. Of those three Infernalist is probably the best combination of easy + powerful. Minion builds usually are.

[undone mortar]

It’s iron reflexes but you keep 60% of your evasion too

OP as fuck

[lethal hollow]

is there a way to upgrade base damage for orange colored quarterstaff?

[robust radish]

what build is this good for?

[still rock]

it was probably the one that stuck out from just reading it out of all the defensives from ascendancies

as being insane

[serene lotus]

Whats a good ratio for armor to evasion? Also if i get a crossbow with +1 projectile is it worth taking over a higher flat damage bow?

[undone mortar]

Yeah having mixed evasion and armor is good for defense layers

[solid badger]

A witchy curse build?

[wet kernel]

Would having 80% evasion + 80% armour with 2.3k ES be better than 60% evasion + 60% armour with 3.2k ES?

[undone mortar]

I have 3k es while mapping too

From grim feast

[robust radish]

is there a meta curse build? ppl are whispering me a lot but i didnt knwo of any builds that could use this

seems like 0 dmg on it which is surprising

[still rock]

Maxroll imo, the more I use the planner the more I'm impressed with their dev team lol

works really good

[wet kernel]

Ppl just want the ES + skill effect

[still rock]

and able to create folders and save and organize is huge for me

[robust radish]

whats the skill effect good for

[still rock]

especially all in a webapp

[wet kernel]

Everything that has a cooldown

[solid badger]

I don't know about meta, but there are ways to make a curse build do a bunch of damage with appropriate supports like the Doom and the DoT based on Intelligence.

[earnest walrus]

Just started checking it, shocked it's mobile friendly. Huge for couch gamers

[solid badger]

I'm playing a Hand of Chayula/Hexblast curse build.

But I don't need curse duration

[still rock]

its about 500x more mobile friendly than GGG's own website lol

that ancient thing

[earnest walrus]

Facts. My god

[solid badger]

Personally my favorite PoE site is the POE 2 db. I get most of my info there.

It can be annoying to navigate, but it does have the most info.

[ruby patio]

I use temp chains / conductivity. This would be good for me

[still rock]

in terms of planner tools tho its pretty bad

its good for info

thats abt it

I'll use Maxroll most likely until PoB exists

[solid badger]

For sure. As far as planners go yeah I use Maxroll. I hope PoB Community Fork gets updated soon so I can use that.

[arctic minnow]

has anyone been able to make a good physical/bleed witch build yet

[still rock]

nvm

[solid badger]

oh poe ninja is dead then? I used to use that for price checking on trade.

I could live without it though.

Path of Building I would miss horribly though lol

[still rock]

im assuming poe2 eventually gets public api for character data

so then a poe ninja would be able to exist

[alpine pecan]

Its extremely unimportant so i imagine it's very low priority in the studio

[still rock]

pob is a separate thing thats a monolith lol

thats gunna take a while

[sudden valley]

Servers lags today ? I keep getting slowing every now and then

[still rock]

ive had (mostly infrequent) lag spikes since launch tbh

not super bad but annoying here and there

try changing servers

the server closest to me is notoriously wonky in poe1 assuming they use the same data centers

[hasty vault]

Anyone know of a good written ice invoker monk guide?

[analog gale]

do minions inherit damage gained as?

[still rock]

no

[analog gale]

like if i get this dark defililer will my minions get 30% damage as chaos damage if i have 10 minions?

[still rock]

no

[analog gale]

aw

do you think the dark defiler could be any good

just with unearh and summon zombie you can get like 60% damage as chaos

or more

[still rock]

depends if the minions have to actually be alive

[analog gale]

minions stop existing when they die

[still rock]

booo

[analog gale]

there was a minion in poe1 that would resurrect eternally

[still rock]

then probably not cause idk how you keep all those fuckers alive

[analog gale]

it was a corpse you could reanimate with summon spectres

[still rock]

theres a cleric here

[still rock]

but idk its efficacy

maybe if you just had all clerics

lmao

they just res eachother

but anyways its probably not good no because if you want to scale spell damage youd ideally want +spell level so idk what this unique is even for tbh

but that goes for like 90% of low level uniques in PoE

coming up with a build that uses all your spirit on clerics would be funny as hell tho

[analog gale]

if skeletal clerics could heal you tho

[still rock]

if there was some type of damage aoe you could put on minions that stacked or something idk

[analog gale]

minion instability + infernal legion?

wait infernal legion is burning so it doesnt stack

but minion instability is a hit

[still rock]

just stack clerics and minion life

how much max spirit is like top end of minion builds rn

[opaque cobalt]

Can some one tell me, on ps5. Where can I see my spell crit chance stats?

[olive ibex]

Hi, I'm new and could use some help to make myself a build (Monk).
Can somebody help me?😅

[mystic shard]

So.....you can't block everything, there are big heavy attacks that can one hit you, and aoes.

On hardcore....I mean 1 life.....why does unwavering stance exist?

It's like a death for ur char.

how is this meant to work?

[still rock]

so you can move your character without dodge rolling

not sure if you knew

[mystic shard]

cmon bro

some attacks I barely skate out of reacting instantly with my dodge roll, the aoes

[undone mortar]

For people who want to play poe1 but slower

[mystic shard]

besides, stun threshold is huge, u dont even need to double it, meh shrug

tbh I want to play a tank build too, but apparently.

They've just thrown the dmg balance out of wack from what ive heard

i heard u can get hitlike 20k before resistances

[undone mortar]

Well

[mystic shard]

and some people speculated 100k

[undone mortar]

They’re gonna nerf it again

[mystic shard]

hopefully 100k is nonsense

[undone mortar]

Im 99% sure

[still rock]

im gunna pay for them to make a unique that gets dmg scaling from stun threshold

then I'll show you

[mystic shard]

what does everyone think the upper limit of a singular attack is?

[undone mortar]

High

Arbiter can hit for like 20k

[mystic shard]

number

so 20k about the max?

[undone mortar]

Through 75% fire res

So probably 100k

[mystic shard]

through 75% fire resist?

[undone mortar]

Unless it’s a mix of types

[still rock]

intended slam mechanic or nah?

[mystic shard]

cant be...

[undone mortar]

I mean it’s a mechanic

[mystic shard]

its gotta be a mix

[undone mortar]

The circles thing

[mystic shard]

or something

wtf is the point in tank stats

[undone mortar]

Now

His beam is probably fire and hits multiple times

[still rock]

i think its fine for the game to have intended slam mechanics that are unmitigatable

[mystic shard]

okso its multiple stikes

cool

maybe its chaos or something

[undone mortar]

It does a lot of damage but chances are certain builds can tank it

It looks like fire and ggg has said they tried to make damage types consistent with color

[mystic shard]

20k after max resistances?

[undone mortar]

Chaos is green and purple

[mystic shard]

lol what can tank it

its gotta have to have been another element

or a mix

[undone mortar]

Maybe a warrior with the extra max fire res and heatproofing

[mystic shard]

if its not

this games balance sucks

[undone mortar]

Of course it sucks

It’s beginning of EA

[worldly stone]

can someone send me a good gemling legionaire build

[mystic shard]

warrior can increase their resistance cap?

[undone mortar]

Not sure what people expected lol

[mystic shard]

what type of warrior?

[undone mortar]

Bottom left of the tree there’s max fire res

[still rock]

endgame giga stupid money gear gemling will be tankiest imo but that requires a full skill page of 5 socketed gems

[mystic shard]

bah for one element?

jesus gimmi a break

[undone mortar]

Idk other than specific boss mechanics and bullshit on death effects from rares I really don’t find myself dying to bs

[undone mortar]

There’s other max res there too

Nearby

[mystic shard]

mmmmmm

[undone mortar]

There’s just more max fire

There might be other nodes I haven’t explored the tree fully

[undone mortar]

Since I got like 40+ chaos res and have 65+ armor and 75+ evasion

[still rock]

i havent taken off my chaos charm since like a2 cruel

[proper sinew]

they nerfed a lot of dmg spikes recently

[mystic shard]

there are only so many sockets, where to people get the gear to do every resist

feh

so could u be immune to fire or?

[undone mortar]

Wdym it’s so easy now

[still rock]

resist cap is easy lol

[proper sinew]

90% is hardcap resi

[undone mortar]

You take -40 res considering the campaign buffs

[proper sinew]

used to be -20 more at t11+

[undone mortar]

130 res of each type on gear and you’re overcapped

[mystic shard]

how ud o it easily?

[proper sinew]

you can get triple 30% values on single gear

[undone mortar]

Higher tier gear gets like 40+ res on it

[mystic shard]

how?

oh

[proper sinew]

rng + ilvl

[mystic shard]

guess im early game

[undone mortar]

Wdym how lol

What level are you

[mystic shard]

28

[undone mortar]

Oh yeah you don’t have to worry too much

[torn garnet]

hinder is its own thing right, chill isn't hinder its like its own spell?

[proper sinew]

normal a1+a2 resi can be annoying to get

[mystic shard]

im hardcore

im preparing

[undone mortar]

Early acts is the hardest to gear

[mystic shard]

making sure I dont die

[undone mortar]

Check vendor every time you level up

[still rock]

correct

its own debuff to be exact

[torn garnet]

ok

dang

min maxing how to max out this timelost i just got

[still rock]

lemme see

[torn garnet]

prob will take the recoup for extra squish but never use to use that kinda thing

[still rock]

sheesh

[torn garnet]

idk if it feels good to use against really bad stuff

gonna grab rest of crit nodes in it

[still rock]

where do these drop from idek lmao

[proper sinew]

notable are the midsized passives?

[torn garnet]

just searched really expensive gems every day

and keep an eye out

they are very rare to find ones with all the shit u want

[undone mortar]

Yeah

The ones with a name

Does increased aoe mods affect blasphemy curse area?

And the increased aoe effect of curses mod on jewels, does that also affect blasphemy curse?

[proud ore]

Will titan increase the small node increases?

[fervent barn]

Okay I’m about to blow my brains out with the act two boss on my warrior, you can only dodge roll for so long when you do no damage! Any tips for build to make it less rage inducing

[still rock]

[still rock]

upgrade your weapon

you want big damage number

do bigger damage

[mystic shard]

so

unnatural resilience, every 40% uncapped

[static plinth]

Rare from Sanctum

[still rock]

[mystic shard]

can u get runes that give + to all resistances and like by a lot, like 30%?

Later?

[torn garnet]

titan?

[still rock]

5% all ele res from soul cores

[static plinth]

No, every rune has only 1 tier. There's a soul core that gives 5 ele res

[mystic shard]

maybe if I can max my resists easy with just basic gear, Ill be able to use max hp runes after all.

[storm willow]

as a warrior, how can i get an insane amount of health regen? i saw someone with 1300 hp regen per second 💀

[mystic shard]

chaos dmg isn't elemental resist right?

[proud ore]

Titan warrior has a ascen skill that increases all small nodes by 50% saw your pic and the question popped into mind

[atomic halo]

chaos damage isn't mitigated by elemental resistances, if that was what you were saying

[fervent barn]

Is 75-112 not enough?

[torn garnet]

mmm not for invoker monk but probably yea

[analog gale]

chat

[torn garnet]

unsure

[analog gale]

im level 25 and my witch sucks

[torn garnet]

[mystic shard]

https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Soul_Core_of_Atmohua what does this do?

god so much to leanr lol

oh wait gear requirements i think, or requirements of everything

got it lol

[proven rapids]

energy shied is very good with any form of damage avoidance right ?

[dry shuttle]

can someone explain me why my "Cast on Ignite" is not getting any charges? I'm infernalist and using SRS, the Dog and Flame wall but nothing is happening. I have hexblast, contagion and Impetus socketed into it

[still rock]

they made it so the energy is scaled on the magnitude of the ignite right?

so you can't just do the cheapy flame wall trick anymore i think

[dry shuttle]

hmm I see, I thought I would atleast get some energy

oh nvm, its at 1% now lol

[gusty elk]

So i killed the boss and finished the trial but somehow my honor got deleted and i cant go to the ascendancy altar.. there was no attack nothing the boss died instantly what is this

[analog gale]

[still rock]

ya

[gusty elk]

my quest literall says "use the altar" so it knows i won

[dry shuttle]

thx papa

[analog gale]

it would be nice if i could recoup life costs as a blood mage

[graceful nymph]

Can you cumulate Witchhunter's Zealous Inquisition + Explosions from Heral of Ash + Other forms of explosion on death ?

[mystic shard]

chest 3 sockets, weapon 2, everything else 1, right?

[analog gale]

probably

[undone mortar]

Chest has 2 sockets too

And only 2h weapons have 2 sockets

[undone mortar]

My brother that is an effect of corruption.

[mellow shale]

Trying dual wielding and am very confused. Rage support on dual wielded Mace Strike only gives rage for the first hit, even though visually there are two hits and the enemy HP bar moves twice. Are dual wielded hits secretly considered a single hit for game logic?

[undone mortar]

It can add a socket

The default is 2 max.

[undone mortar]

Rage gain has a cooldown.

[still rock]

it really bothers me that it adds it left justified below the first two

[analog gale]

just get a morior invictus

[still rock]

like way more than it should bother anyone

[mellow shale]

Ah thanks, that's what it is then. Any idea how long the cooldown is?
