[static plinth]

You basically convert 90% to cold and keep 20% phys

[serene shore]

What do you use to scale minion damage? Cast/attack speed, increased damage, fire wall with projectiles, but are there more specific tools?

[ocean verge]

does anyone know if rage consumption of a skill is done before or after passive tree calculations. Specifically im using ferocious slam (bear slam) and it uses 25 rage, on my passive tree I have every 10 rage is 12% inc. phys damage from bestial rage node. Is the %inc phys damage being applied/calculated to/for the slam before or after it consumes the rage?

For example with bear slam costing 25 rage and I have 60 max rage, does bestial rage node give me 72% inc. phys or only 36% inc. phys

[cosmic socket]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fsV9VOuA-NE

how can I find PoB for this ?

[flat orbit]

did that one great node for mana leech get removed or something

i cant find it on the tree and im having HUGE mana issues rn

[ocean verge]

which one?

like what did it do roughly

theres the recover 2% mana on kill with 25% inc amount recoverd node

[flat orbit]

it was like

walker of the wilds maybe?

yeah walker of the wilds is the name

[serene shore]

That was removed and made a support gem.

[ocean verge]

yeah its now a lineage supprot gem iirc

which fucking blows cause thats insane damage loss / oppurtunity cost now

[flat orbit]

bruh

im really struggling w mana on hollow palm atm

[golden wraith]

Anyone know if frostbomb interaction with the overabundance support is broken? Mine isn't getting the limit increase.

[signal copper]

Can someone ELI5 “incision” from my understanding incision is a stacking debuff that increases the chance of bleeding?

Does this mean that the support gem incision inherently gives a non bleeding skill the ability to cause bleeding through incision debuff?

Or is it just an increased chance and so inherently you also need a source to cause the bleeding like the bleeding support gem

[mystic tangle]

As a druid, is there a way to get Trusted Kinship without pathing all the way to it?

[delicate fern]

chayulas node "Take no Damage from Volatility", does this count as damage prevented or not? was wondering whether i can do some iron ward shenanigans if it does count as physical damage prevented

[pale hatch]

What's the early sentiment on the new sorc ascension and plant magic?

[burnt cedar]

Dunno, I was literally about to ask that, it's what I'm looking to build toward. Not sure if I should stack minion buffs or not.

[winged oxide]

Anyone try a plant build with Druids new Overgrowth mechanic? Unsure if it would be fun/useful or not. Figured go with Ranger, and grab the stuff from Druids side.

[cinder plank]

Hello, does anyone have any build which is fast and is not using a bow? Played too much LA deadeye and I didn't find poison pathfinder to be that fun. Any recommendations?

[atomic obsidian]

If you create a new build on your own, without any tutorials, do you do anything special, or have a specific way of doig that? Bc I am trying to make a fire druid, and right now (Act 3) it works okay, but I dont do the damage that I want. I've seen people online shredding bosses in Act 1 and I dont know how they do it...

[north heath]

All melee builds depend on their weapon

[atomic obsidian]

Range builds dont?

[zinc linden]

Can you suggest some very strong and easy build ? starting late O_O

[atomic halo]

all attack builds anyway

[weary siren]

can gale force from wind dancer deal crits?

[dusky mason]

anyone following any elemental druid guide or wolf guide ?

[odd charm]

Anyone else doing la oracle?

[dense wadi]

Guys help, idk what I did but this skill doesn’t activate anymore 😔 I changed weapons etc and it stays the same

[next igloo]

my pob isn't updating is there a new version for this league yet?

[whole fog]

can only druid use these spells?

[viscid zinc]

In the image you have, you have the talisman equipped.

Herald of Ash requires a martial weapon. Your 2nd weapon set has a quarterstaff which would work. If you swap too that it should work.

[whole fog]

thunderstorm and tornado would be amazing for stormweaver yes?

[summer pasture]

yes

[graceful haven]

Any decent one/limited button builds that are tanky and don’t have jank leveling?

[whole fog]

That's huge thanks

has anyone tried Infernalist+ Tornado?

or blood mage+tornado?

mainly this part

[whole fog]

alr im gonna go blood mage with tornado

should get good dmg

[dusty kiln]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/vaal/character/SensaçãoDeDesespero-4682/MenteBlindada?i=0&search=class%3DTitan%2CSmith%2Bof%2BKitava%2CWarbringer

need some help figuring this out: how is this guy breaking armor?
i cant find anything that seems to allow him to do so, yet hes specced into fully broken armor nodes and skills
did i miss something? this seems to be the top smith of kitava player atm, and i saw similar builds where i also couldnt find anything that breaks armor
i feel like i must be blind or smth

[summer pasture]

can you scale the exposure that the shaman node gives?

i assume not

[ripe roost]

has anyone gotten this erro before? I cannot sign into POB for POE2 it only lets me select my standard characters

[granite marsh]

Did anybody tested different skeletons in acts? I'm doing midact4 switch to minions on Shaman and have limited resources so first try should be playable.

1. Which skeleton is best right now? (Without commands)
2. Did they buff Frost Mage attack distance(In 0.1 it was abysmal and i didn't play them since then)?

[manic lynx]

You guys think Plant Chrono would be decent with the Sands of Time node to get extra cast speed and aoe? I l'm torn between running Varashta or Chrono.

[frozen knot]

Uul'

Uul's Netol on shield wall

[fallow trout]

Hey, I am currently trying to get flicker strike to work.
Everything is fine, im just dissapointed in the dmg.
I activate Charged Staff and use Flickerstrike after that, but the dmg is low and on other flickerstike players there are more explosions and stuff than I have.
I use Herald of Ice.
EDIT: Does Flickerstrike use "Quarterstaff Strike"? Because I didnt put any gems in there

[dusty kiln]

Thank you!
Guess im just gonna copy that with the normal break armor gem until i have it

[slim spoke]

does anyone know if ichlotls inferno and primal hunger work together? or would primal hunger take away the %1 fire per rage that ichlotls gives?

[cedar aspen]

My assumption is that Primal Hunger takes away any benefit rage provides including benefits added to it from the likes of the passive tree and ascendancies. It basically turns rage into a resource rather than a boost in damage

[cold mulch]

Hey, does anyone know if primal strike amazon with warp still works and is viable?

[slim spoke]

yeah thats what i was thinking, cause been using berserk and now its hard to sustain without lifeleech cause i plan on going avatar of fire, so may just drop berserk and use that node

[summer pasture]

pob is not updated yet

[lethal prism]

How is barkskin not working i have 45 spirit open and it takes 30

[tranquil wagon]

Guys if you can help here .. the explosive grenade skill build will be perfect with pathfinder or deadeye im alittle bit confusing if you have experience guys.. i need the best one to go with if you are following one

[zealous locust]

Can the spell totem stack plants with my own plants ? or do they get replaced ?

[carmine flicker]

don't you have that less spirit node?

[lethal prism]

yes

but i have 135 with that node

[carmine flicker]

well, it's also 50% less reservation efficiency

so barskin will take 60 spirit

[lethal prism]

ahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

so this takes 22/23 ish instead of 15

[carmine flicker]

30

[lethal prism]

but double is 100% more

no?

[carmine flicker]

50% less reservation efficiency is 100% more cost

[lethal prism]

okok

thanks

[carmine flicker]

100% less would be "infinite" cost

[white spindle]

think the game wants me to go spark lol

[austere veldt]

Can someone tell me - since tornado is a damage over time effect, it doesn't do "hits", right? Do ailments need to be a hit to inflict? so a tri empowered tornado won't be doing anything at all to inflict ailments, correct?

[tender oasis]

nah it wants you to go arc

[white spindle]

damn, if only it was +2 it could last me through all of campaign

[zenith valley]

Really struggling campaigning as melee, especially as the slow bear lol.. got to act 2 and whilst it feels strong, I’m just not vibing much.. is there a decent wyvern build to follow anywhere?

[formal ridge]

yall im returning player after a long time, which class is most op rn? hehe

[white spindle]

still deadeye lol

[patent shell]

since it has projectile tag does the iron grip give the autoattacks more dmg ????

[white spindle]

lightning arrow dead eye, been meta for as long as i can rememer lol

[formal silo]

can someone help explain rend to me on the dragon, so when its charged you get lighting damage, is it physical converted or just extra/added?

[zenith valley]

Nah the meta now is poison pf for sure

[formal ridge]

dam lol

is standard league and fate of the vaal league seperate?

[formal ridge]

you got a build link by any chance?

[smoky ice]

I'm reading https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/guides/damage-conversion about extra damage gain.
"Damage Gain is a mechanic that provides extra Damage from a source type of Damage without removing the source Damage"
does that mean that if I have 100% of physical damage as extra fire damage, it scalls multiplicitive on first phys damage and then after on fire?

[white spindle]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/lightning-arrow-farmer-fubgun

[formal ridge]

ty i appreciate u sm

i goota do fate of the vaal league right?

[atomic halo]

if you have 100 flat phys and 100% phys as fire you will then deal 100 phys and 100 fire

[white spindle]

yup

[smoky ice]

what if I have 100 flat phys. 100% increased physical damage. 100% elemental damage. 100% phyhsical as extra fire damage
does that make it: 200phys & 200 fire? or does it skip the increased physical damage %

[atomic halo]

is that inc phys local or global?

[smoky ice]

the part where it gives "extra" and conversions hurt my brain

[smoky ice]

global one

[atomic halo]

100 phys -> 100 phys + 100 fire -> 200 phys + 200 fire

first do convert and gain, then apply modifiers like inc/reduced/more/less

[leaden scaffold]

does rampage snapshot rage damage multiplier? or does it change as rage gets drained

[smoky ice]

oohh check okay okay thank you

[silk bison]

how do you get more support gem slots for weapon skills? just by leveling it?

[rapid atlas]

how does ancestral cry work for bear? do you put it in bear warcry or just use it as is?

[leaden scaffold]

you shove it in ferocious roar and use the roar

AC will be greyed out but it will still show you how much glory it has

[celest oxide]

Fury of the King talisman bait or worth it?

[noble mango]

just starting the season. is spark blood mage bloodletting kill this season? before i put a bunch of time in to this lol

[atomic halo]

yes, why not

[fringe lagoon]

They nerfed bloodletting and rathpith, so it won't perform as last league

[noble mango]

fuk

[icy kiln]

What are all the shaman spellcasters running atm? I’m trying to get some ideas for mine. Max rage seems very hard to get

[fringe lagoon]

Consider stormweaver for spark perhaps, orb of storm limit stacking is strong

[celest oxide]

What's the best ascendency for Wyvern?

[tender pecan]

wtf is up with poe2 im playing lich, have soulless form and i actively recover NO mana whatsoever

[fierce charm]

am I wrong to assume oil barrage on the wyvren druid scales with ignite magnitude or flammability magnitude. Or is it both?? I am a bit tired and the words arent making sense lmfao

[fierce charm]

i like oracle so far just cuz of the crits but ive seen shaman builds that are nasty as well

[cedar aspen]

Flammability magnitude just scales how quickly you reach 100% flammability, the higher the flammability rating on an enemy, the higher chance you’ll ignite that enemy.

Ignite magnitude is what you want. Magnitude increases the damage your ignite causes over its duration.

[chilly mist]

Do druid minions persist? I saw some footage where it looks like they sort of just function as active spells?

[manic venture]

Can you reduce the cooldown of Moonbeam on Lunar Blessing with Atziri's Impatience?

[celest oxide]

I heard the passives from oracle are quite good too

Maybe I’ll try Oracle this time and if I don’t like it I can try Oracle Wolf

[atomic bronze]

hey guys, is Rigwald's ferocity meta now?

[celest oxide]

What are the movement speed boots and rage helm for Smurf characters called again?

[plain cloud]

Hey, what's the best ascendancy if I'm looking to go for a Wyvern build? The only skill that requires rage as a resource seems to be the Flame Breath, however it looks like Oil Barrage seems to have more than enough damage, would it still be necessary to go for Shaman or would it be better to go for Titan/Kitava?

[smoky ice]

Does Increases and Reductions to Spell damage also apply to Attacks from https://poe2db.tw/us/Crown_of_Eyes work with https://poe2db.tw/us/Sacrificial_Blood ?
I just tried to slot it in, but it didn't directly show a higher dps tooltip

[celest oxide]

I’m wondering the same too

[tepid pumice]

Anyone tried rolling magma in t15?

[tough crow]

Does Shankgonne work when shapeshifted?

[celest oxide]

Rage is always still just generically really good for Melee builds tbf

I think Oracle might be quite good as well

Autocrits and powerful passives from tree

[celest oxide]

Another sleeper is Amazon if you don’t mind starting on that side of the tree

And I’m sure pathfinder is generically good for it too

But that elemental surge skill Amazon has goes pretty crazy with Wyvern stuff apparently

[odd needle]

anyone got any tips on building surviability on cold wolf?

[plain cloud]

Interesting, I'm watching the Amazon version and it certainly seems fluid with the playstyle, I was worried about the survivability more than the damage though seeing as Oil Barrage is just a broken skill, and it looks like the Druid part of the Passive tree just has extremely good rage nodes to pass up, I think you could get enough rage just with support gems, so I was wondering how to make it survive maps/Pinnacles, Oracle's 'The Lesser Harm' does seem like a great choice as well similar to Shaman's 'Reactive Growth'/'Avatar of Evolution' but is more damage the way to go or just go like a Full on Kitava immortal Dragon/Titan later with better Gear

[tired hornet]

Yo, looking for advice here, how would you guys about fixing single target dmg on an ice shot build? I'm already running snipe but for now it doesn't quite cut it

[celest oxide]

I think if any of these methods of survivability can work if you’re confident in your own ability to build your defences right. I’m not so I like having a guide to help lol

[thorn bolt]

anyone know if its more worth going for grenade ranger or posion archer? i picked ranger but cant find decent up to date sources on whats worth going or not xd

i have 0 idea on how to build ranger and all ive seen so far are those two builds

[whole fog]

Elemental Weakness
Galvanic Field
Temporal Chains
Blasphemy
Vulnerability
Orb of Storms
Thunderstorm
Ball Lightning

these skills fine for stormweaver

[night jetty]

sup. haven't played in like a year. what are some cheap meme builds that are t16 viable? i like flashy stuff like flicker strike, invoker twister (checked this one out and it looks to only be midgame viable) chain detonate dead, that sort of thing

just need the build name so i can go research it. the more stuff happening on the screen, the better ;P

[short topaz]

I'm looking for recommendations for skills to pair with chronomacer, I plan to go heavily into life recoup and temporal chains, think anything would pair particularly well with that kinna thing?

[median kraken]

I think some of the new druid stuff is pretty flashy. Bear just has meteors raining down all over the place constantly and plants just cover the screen in plans and storms (and have the water your plants meme)

[normal forum]

falling thunder amazon might be up your alley

[topaz tundra]

hi guys

how this work?

[normal forum]

if they have 30% resistances

it treats it as -30

[whole fog]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/

these fine. no clue what gear to use

[normal forum]

neither of those rlly matter for dmg or synergize with anything so

[sour hare]

I put Walking Calamity on weapon slot 2,
I put Skill Effect Duration on passive tree 2

Now when I cast Walking Calamity, the fireballs come down for 3 seconds, then it goes away. The timer is still counting down, but its not doing anything.
Oh, as soon as I swap back to Weapon Set 1, it stops raining down. Is that intended?

[topaz tundra]

really?

i thinks its op thx

[normal forum]

it is

[glacial dragon]

with the change to Warlord Berserker, is there now no way to impart YOUR rage onto minions?

[short topaz]

True but I can't figure out what I want to have for my damage

[west wharf]

there is this

[glacial dragon]

that is grants YOU. im looking to give my 100 rage to my minions so they have 100% MORE attack damage like Warlord Berserker used to have

[atomic halo]

in poe1 minions cannot have rage

i would assume it's the same poe2

[west wharf]

it grants you minion attack speed and minion damage

aka the minions get speed and damage

as for giving your entire rage effect to minions no

can't

[glacial dragon]

dang, used to be able to. it used to read : "Rage you gain is also granted to Allies in your Presence"

[night jetty]

checked it out but doesn't seem to be that flashy/memey. appreciate it tho!

[normal forum]

i usually see chronos do ice wall stuff

[calm orchid]

Are there no ways in POE2 to check what stats a timeless jewel would give? No calculators and such

[atomic halo]

nope, no calcs

[fervent dock]

So there's no real reason to buy one then unless you're an omega gambler?

[frail fable]

Is there any chaos skills that have chaos dmg ground effects?

[turbid cargo]

Does anyone know if mystical rage is cancelled out by primal hunger on the passives?

Or does primal hunger only refer to melee damage for rage

[tranquil wagon]

is this still work this league after all that nerf and deleted nodes???

[atomic halo]

yes

[tranquil field]

Does anyone know whether "shapeshifted recently" is only for human vs animal or between two animals as well?

[static plinth]

Shouldnt be that hard to test in hideout, pretty sure between two animals works

Hi guys, on game release i used to play grenade build mercenary. Im coming back to game now, what build would you think fit me?

[ornate gate]

anyone figured out a spell totem set up? ive seen the redflare setup but the totems really seem like zdps for bosses especially

[teal sail]

anyone have ideas for a 2h/Primal magic hybrid? We have totems, fissures, jagged earth, and shock waves - but Im not seeing any good paths on the passive tree

[brazen marlin]

Tell me if this idea is inheriently dumb. Oracle inevitable critical ember fusillade cast on crit ember fusillade + cast on ignite ember fusillade.
There's a good bit of ignite support nodes in that part of tree, and inevitable crits makes a cast on crit setup really easy to do.

[slender night]

i think the clear will feel like ass

[sick panther]

late game would werewolf and dragon form spec similar?

[brazen marlin]

There was a bloodmage version of the build and it had pretty good clearing

what's the passive or item that lets you equip 2 life flasks?

been seeing druid builds with 2 life flasks equipped

not sure how

[teal sail]

woah when I 2h slam overgrown vines, theres a relly cool green spiky aoe thing

[brazen marlin]

Well I thought of going blackflame with it and the tree would look mental

gotcha, i'll use it for now till it's patched lol

thanks

[brazen marlin]

https://i.gyazo.com/64dfbfe8cb6e00c52ce43583a0cc4bc9.jpg

I suck at trying to do a tree though

I think a lot of millage could be done with the keystone travel thing, but I'm definitely not smart enough to abuse that

[cyan plinth]

Whats the special stat that can roll on helmets for melee builds? Like +level of melee skills can roll on gloves

[slender night]

that sure is some travel

you can travel from the first part on the left, to the middle, for 3 nodes

instead of the 4 you're doing whenit comes around

but also that could be optimised so much more lol

[brazen marlin]

Oh yeah I suck at tree plotting also I was doing it on a whim when I saw blackflame was awfully close

[slender night]

yeah i looked a bit more and that is just, bad xD

i think the most simple change for the initial blackflame routing, is that you'd just grab the energy shield ont he way there, as that has the 70% increased es from helmet node

[lean crest]

how often does whirling assault actually hit

it builds combo really fast but then only hits the bell like 6 times from what i observe

[brazen marlin]

https://gyazo.com/5b367af67f785fb5d3884ee915f8b8fd Something like that?

just traveled through the es wheel instead of dead travel through the top right or bottom right

[slender night]

yeah

and thena lso more optimsiation would be like, changing how you start

you're going pretty far out for chaos damage nodes, but those arent giving you more damage than you, taking your damage nodes near the start

because your travelling so much to get all this stuff, you're losing out on extra damage nodes you could take, that would mean your total damage is higher

same for some of the es you're dropping in on that route

i would basically suggest just building around the normal area, and going up to blackflame as you're like, far reaching one

and the chaos nodes right next to it

[brazen marlin]

that makes sense I was hoping to hit the triggered skills stuff at the top so I was focused on how to get that in

[slender night]

and if you really want to go all the way over to the right, route throug the proj nodes

psychic fragmention part

that goes crazy for fusilade

and if you go to that, you can get lingering horror

which isnt ideal cus of the skill effect, but its 23% chaos

[brazen marlin]

how would you do the route because however I do it I see a lot of dead travel nodes

[slender night]

let me throw somethign together quick

[celest oxide]

I rerolled Wyvern and wow the damage

just from Empowered Rend alone

I wonder what ascendency is best for this

Shaman Oracle or Titan

[pearl sluice]

I'm using this Bear Druid build, and I'm 19lvl, I have 41str, 7dex, and 21 int without bonuses from armors, etc, with them I'm 64-20-21, the build doesn't talk about stats clearly, it only says the stats I need for gems, how should allocate my stats?
https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/bear-druid-build-league-starter-to-endgame?weaponSet=set1

[slender night]

@brazen marlin

rough idea quickly thrown together

it gets the proj damage near druid, surge on crit, and surge gives spell damage

and the reduced skill effect nodes near druid

idk if crit chance or crit dam is better for oracle so whatever you vibe with mroe where thats a choice

and then if you go get those proj nodes on the right, you get the meta tree that gives spell damage next to it

[brazen marlin]

I think it has a roughly 40% crit breakthrough where damage is better for scaling than chance

because of inevitable crits

[slender night]

yeah

i think defintiely want to take the proj nodes here anyway

thats a lot of free damage for fusilade

and the ailment% with it as well for triggering your ignites

[brazen marlin]

I wonder if blackflame is even worth even in bloodmage I feel like it's a lot because of the pretty color more than anything.

[slender night]

the reduces skill effect might not be needed, but i remember when i was doing fusilade it felt liek a lot of dps to get everythign to reduce it

i mean, its not efficient this at all like, in the grand scheme

but who cares

its a fun idea 😄

if you wanna go for it, it'll get somewhere

[brazen marlin]

Also I get to spend probably the first 5 acts playing edc

lets be honest here

[slender night]

i mean

if you do that, then you basically are redoing your tree later

so at that point you can level with whatever you want

[brazen marlin]

do you have a link for the tree you made so I'm not having to eyeball it

[slender night]

alreayd closed sorry

[brazen marlin]

I wish pob was updated I think path not taken and entwined realities would have really cool stuff

[brazen marlin]

Actually which planner is that?

I was using maxroll

[slender night]

https://poeplanner.com/poe2

to not intentioanlly try and shit on maxroll too much, but there website is outclassed in every game they do by other fan made things

just the nature of trying to force it into the same website, vs other tools being designed solely as that

at least when it comes to theorycrafting and stuff

[brazen marlin]

awe it doesn't seem to show the paths not taken either

[slender night]

it doesnt highlight them, but they're on there

[brazen marlin]

Also do you know if align fate only empower's one casting of a spell or every casting until a new visage appears?

While active, visages of yourself from alternate timelines will occasionally appear and cast one of your Spells from your first valid Weapon Set. Until the next visage appears, your next cast of the same Spell aligns your fate, Empowering that Spell.

seems the difference from it being meh to a 30% damage increase if I go all in

well I guess it says next cast not casts

[fierce charm]

Thats fair its a really fun character so far the map clear speed definitely needs some work i feel or maybe i just havent discovered how to do it yet but other than that i genuinely think its a relatively balanced character

[celest oxide]

Both seem generically very good but I don’t see any actual enabling synergies from them for Wyvern or Wolf

But generically good is probably what you need most for these forms

[brazen marlin]

Oh

[celest oxide]

Since their movesets/skills on talisman seem pretty good

[brazen marlin]

I missed this line. "25% increased Visage frequency per Spell Visages could cast" So actually doesn't seem very good then if I'm only gonna have a couple self cast spells

[dull eagle]

so furious slam keeps my end charges permanently at 3, but what am i supposed to use them for? lol

dont see much use for them on wiki

[fierce charm]

Ahhhhh i see so basically a skill like barrage wouldn’t proc ignite because base it says it doesn’t but the oil does? Which is what’s confusing and i have noticed that the empowered version also causes 100% ignite almost instantly (also have skills which bring numbers up) i feel that im confused on a skill that says in its base form it doesnt ignite but the oil does (assuming with ignition right?) but empowered does it automatically super confusing skill sorry for the long paragraph my head is scrambled lol

[fierce charm]

Exactlyy its fun to go through the story but endgame can get quite confusing to mid max lol

[livid ridge]

Can anyone recommend a way to sustain mana and get tankier on this build?https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Prz1va1-2100/character/CholulaMonkk

[cedar aspen]

That’s ok. I’d have to take a look at that skill first gimme a second

[waxen umbra]

how do I get Bhatair's Vengeance? is it a drop?

[cedar aspen]

Ah ok so with oil barrage it looks like oil grants a crazy amount of ignite so any “ignited ground or detonator skills” will set fire to the oil, and also exposes the enemy. The empowered version is converted to lightning.

What’s mental is that the skills attack speed is 300% of base, and does (with the empowered skill) 593% damage (250+343)

That’s why it’s wrecking so much. I don’t know if people are using this with volcano, or ignited ground to count as their detonator, I’d have to look into that more

[stiff hinge]

Do spell totems not consume infusions? I'm not seeing mine d oso.

[brazen marlin]

[gusty glen]

For survivability work on your gear. Gear with life and resistances.

that -40% fire res really hurts

For mana sustain once you get your 3rd ascendency you can take sap of nightmares for leech

[calm orchid]

looks like it's already been patched

tried it just now, said the 2nd flask is not usable

[bleak oracle]

any reliable way to recover ES on a armour/ES build ?

[celest oxide]

Has anyone tried the Tribal Fury Skill (Strikes have splash damage) on Wyvern?

[autumn egret]

anybody know why my charm slot wont recharge? ive drank at the well and have 3 slots on my belt

[silver urchin]

Zealot's oath

[silver urchin]

screenshot your third charm

[silver urchin]

Your charm consumes 40/40 by default, and your belt makes it consume 4% more, meaning it requires more charges than its maximum

[autumn egret]

ahhh gotcha

ty

[silver urchin]

Also you should always have 2 mods on your charms and flasks

[autumn egret]

yea i had double golden charm on before so bought different 1 jusst to test before asking

but same thing happened

[silver urchin]

looks like you need to get reduced charges used on it, or somewhere else

[autumn egret]

increased charges is the other mods on my other charms

[silver urchin]

that would also work

[celest oxide]

Shaman or Oracle for Wyvern?

I wanna see if I can make this Rend Clear really strong

[manic venture]

Can you reduce the cooldown of Moonbeam on Lunar Blessing with Atziri's Impatience?

[low arrow]

Has anyone tried bleed amazon this league? Is it any good?

[static plinth]

Are there any ways to cheat Scarred Faith? I hear unlike 1, block doesnt work

[celest oxide]

PoB not updated for patch yet right?

[feral flame]

i have a question regarding druids , so i know talismans are used for transformation , and the other slot is basically for spell casting , but what weapons should i use on a druid ? melee or like wands and stuff

[main jetty]

Is it intended for Kelari beetles to not be able to consume corpses of persistent minions?

[silver urchin]

nope

[silver urchin]

Talismans are two handed weapons, using up both hand slots. Do you mean the other weapon set?

[gusty glen]

either staff or wand+focus as the second weapon set. both work for spell casting

[feral flame]

yes i meant other weapon slot

[silver urchin]

Like Duck said, if youre using spells then you can put a staff or a wand + focus there

[charred ivy]

It doesnt snapshot tho right? Your spell becomes weak again when you shapeshift to attack with volcanoes in the back?

[silver urchin]

That I don't know, you're probably right? But it would work fine for other thigns

[graceful wraith]

Has anyone tested Warlord Berserker and either Shaman's Furious Wellspring or that Spirit Gem that regens 5 rage a second? Do they count as "gaining" rage to give it to minions?

[feral flame]

btw how does shred scale ? i dont see any gem levels on that

[silver anvil]

how do people solve mana in the endgame? just flask and pray you have enough dps to kill the boss before you run out of charges?

[graceful wraith]

Could always run a buff aura with clarity, i guess.

[silver urchin]

Blood magic is pretty based

[silver anvil]

i'm right side

[silver urchin]

leech perhaps

[silver anvil]

leech is applied over 4s?

already have some but ig it isnt enough

the solution to my mana problem is ironically just get more damage

[silver urchin]

or that new flask that I forgot about

[gusty glen]

Lavianga's Spirits?

[distant tree]

Hi guys, you know will the spell be casted along existing fissure or will create a new one?

[silver anvil]

already using lavianga's spirits
have about 100 mana recovery per second, and +10/s from leech, but its not enough to sustain my lv19 skill

so i dont think i can actually scale it with gem levels

[silver urchin]

Do you have the bonus flask mana from act 4

and belt

[silver anvil]

i gotta check the act4 buff i picked but yea belt i do

[inland fractal]

Hey team, is shockwave totem viable from the get go? I am a totem main on poe1 and have no desire to play other archetypes

[silver urchin]

Early and mid game its mostly a support tool. I heard you can make it work late game/maps, but IDK how simple that is.

[civic flame]

Can i go smith of kitava stampede?

Give me some pob for that pls

[hoary ingot]

can you equip one handed weapons or a wand with druid transform thing?

[pine sleet]

does this node have a limit ?

[silver urchin]

probably not

[grave granite]

assuming you're talking wolf? Blood Magic is extremely based and may be the go-to build for oracle wolf

[silver urchin]

I'm talking in general, being able to completely ignore mana for such a small investment is very good

[restive mirage]

I am running a cold blood mage. For ST i am just spamming darts / Frost bomb for infusion on a chilled target but the dps is bad. Any tips?

[dreamy bridge]

is there an issue with channeling spells on spell totems? can't use totem bonestorm even when I have 3 endurance charges

I'm dumb. need to use the spell totem skill

[silver urchin]

I saw a GGG comment about bonestorm totems being buugged

[dreamy bridge]

I'll see if it's still bugged

[pure oxide]

How much defense would you hypothetically need to survive the arbiter of ash's one-shot death zone phase?

[granite haven]

Guys do you know when pob2 will update?

[civic summit]

Do you think Jungroan's Limitless Stormweaver is a decent build to try to start -> endgame with? I want something kinda chill and easy to play, and I've been browsing builds for a while but I'm not too familiar with anything. I want to get right into the game so I was debating just yoloing it but I can't respec ascendancy later so im worried about picking the right one lol

The only thing I know is I want ranged or tanky as i had to dodge so much as an ice strike monk in first season lol

[median kraken]

You can respec Ascendancy. I haven't looked at Jungroan's current build, but his builds generally have a reputation for being complex and very not friendly to new players

[civic summit]

I was just interested because he said it was 1 button, but I guess I will look around for more. I'm glad to know they let you respec ascendancy now, I think you couldn't before or maybe I was mistaken. Ty though!

Maybe I'll just play and define build later since i cant brick myself

[median kraken]

Correct, you couldn't originally hit they've since added it

The hard part of Jungroan's builds often isn't the playstyle, it's the setup. He does a lot of builds that take advantage of a lot of mechanics and interactions where it's very easy to miss key parts and have it not work if you don't know what you're doing

Like I said, I don't know about this particular build, just that his builds generally have a reputation for being very strong but also very complex easy to mess up if you try to copy them without knowing what you're doing. PoE's the kind of game where some builds can be complex enough that even when following/copying someone else's build you can mess up

[civic summit]

I found a new one from Animeprincess that seems also fairly easy to use so I might try it for now

The YT comments atleast are saying it's easy

[naive mason]

hey guys, what would be a good/cheap way to increase chance to ignite?

[neon hinge]

So I planned my build around the existance of "Overabundance 3" which I found in PoB but now that I have reached the point where I can use it I can not find it in game.

How do I obtain that support gem?

[silver urchin]

More damage, or flammability magnitude

[median kraken]

I'm not sure if that support gem has ever actually been obtainable

[naive mason]

trying to use the ancestral cry but mobs usually die to 1-2 hits so cant ignite them before killing them :(

[uncut bay]

watch conner and captainlance, 20k ES certainly does it

[neon hinge]

Oh great. So from now on I have to double check everything I plan to be actually available in game.

[uncut bay]

use supports that reduce your cast speed, frost bomb should give 3 infusions

[inland depot]

guys anyone playing wolf, that tried to increase the damage of ice fragments?
I have noticed, that when i use cross slash on a boss after freezing, the fragments do 0 damage to them and actually do not hit him but rather fly behind me??

[orchid galleon]

is there anione who can help me to find fubgun lighning arrow deadeye loot filter for acts

[hoary ingot]

How is my graphics bois

[frosty spear]

so theres no other trick now to port from mob to mob now with lightning warp cause of the gem nerf with pietys?

[unique gyro]

Whats the best druid build rn that isn't a spell caster

Id it bear?

[neon hinge]

Can someone tell me what exactly this is?

This look like one of those inreversible decisions to me.

If yes: How many can I click?

[unique gyro]

All of them

Only 1 stays active tho

[solar veldt]

choose 1 at a time, can swap it by coming back at any time

[thin comet]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/k84l60u9

shaman build

its nice so far (equip is still bad) but overall

[rough trout]

what go to druid leveling build is it? wolf? is wyvern just not good or endgame only as i dont see any vids on it really

[thin comet]

i'm wyverning rn

i mean

its difficult to reach good clearing but its good

[rough trout]

hmm

[lime narwhal]

got my first greater jewellers orb, what yal rates the best skill for wolf attack form to slot it on first? usually I have a clear skill to buff first but wolf attacks all have meaningful interactions. thinking lunar assault or blessing to start..maybe cross slash?

[restive mirage]

Is this a bug? #1322251260098777090 message

[lean seal]

If i wield this as my 2nd weapon while being druid shapechanging, does it affect me in anyway?

[meager oyster]

anyone knows a good PATHFINDER poison build that could clean T15 maps¿?

[silver urchin]

nope

[wide otter]

whats the best way to reduce ignite damage on yourself

im trying the reflect ignite node and i kill myself before the boss dies

[zealous locust]

do the sustained skills from my spell totem stack with my own ?

[silver urchin]

I think 100% reduced magnitude on yourself should do it. That fire cluster that reflects them gives 70% and another cluster further down in Warrior gives 40% (or more)

[crystal finch]

Whos wolf is better, woolie’s or Moxsy’s???

[inland depot]

anyone knows their ice fragments?
I cannot seem to understand the damage they do...

[wide otter]

does that mean you dont take any ignite damage?

that would be crazy

[silver urchin]

AFAIK yes

[zealous sandal]

So im trying to make ice varasha build work, im mainly using freezing shards, frost bomb and comet, is there any easy way for me to get fire infusions to buff the comets?

[frail fable]

For a tornado Druid would shaman be better or oracle

[wide otter]

do u think it is worth it to go all the way down to the warrior node

this is my first non tutorial build and ts is killing me

[silver urchin]

Only if there are other nodes connected that would be helpful, otherwise you might need to find a better way to sustain the self ignite

[feral flame]

for oracle is it more advisable to take the path not taken node first or the other ones

[frosty finch]

hello guys, what's a reasonable amount of shield to go chaos innoculation ?

[bold portal]

They do cold dmg, and are considered projectiles

[crystal finch]

Whos wolf is better, woolie’s or Moxsy’s???

[vital locust]

PoE 2 feels very hard to understand — there are 1000+ skills and over 100 support gems. How can a new player learn build-making instead of just copying builds?

[silver urchin]

A lot of reading, and practice

There aren't a thousand gems, and the ones that do exist, are all close to each other within their categories. So if you just start with one group at a time and go from there, you'll have an easier time

[calm orchid]

in all honesty you will find that 90% of builds are using most of the same support gems

a good chunk of them are very niche

[agile salmon]

i feel too dumb for I don't really understand the point of this keystone

doesnt the 3rd line mean rage is.. useless?

[sharp thorn]

You still can spend it as a resource.

There's plenty opportunity to do so now.

[agile salmon]

like, with this?

or does "no rage effect" nullify this too?

[sharp thorn]

No, "also grants" is also effect of rage.

Try fire breath.

[agile salmon]

ah makes sense, i havent played with shapeshifting

didn't know some skills have rage as an innate resource

[round pier]

my friend gonna start p2 first time and he wants sorc with non one button build
any suggestions?

[carmine flicker]

arc/oos? like.. classic

[round pier]

isn't arc kinda one-button?

[carmine flicker]

well, you must place orb of storms to gain infusions(also cause it does damage too)

it's 2 button
3 if you count lightning conduit

4 if you count shield charge as travel skill

also it's easy enough to learn and hard to screw up

what are best spectres in 0.4 so far?

anything new and cool may be?

(that isn't vaal guard)

[vivid dagger]

why is ppl using blackflame covenant on plant druid build??

[analog drum]

im unsure if i wanna try demon form or lich witch

ik demon form got a good buff and it looks amazing but liches are cool asf

[carmine flicker]

demon form was buffed?

[analog drum]

pretty sure yeah

hu nvm guess im wrong

[carmine flicker]

I mean, shapeshift nodes are kinda buff

but they aren't all THAT good to be a gamechanger

[analog drum]

yeah i was thinking of going lich anyway because its cooler lol

im gonna have a very urple ass screen

ive been expirmenting with druid too and its been fun havent rlly tried the drake yet tho

[carmine flicker]

try shield wall lich
I tried to mess with that last league a bit
but then found doedre undoing and switched to that

(abyssal lich I mean)

[unreal girder]

Its hilarious how they posted that endgame druid video about spell totems generating their own charges and it turns out it straight up doesnt work like that

[carmine flicker]

mostly cause shield + scepter + abyssal lich (soul well melee damage per skelly) can give a lot of increased

[carmine flicker]

what would totems even do with them?

[unreal girder]

No, in the video it said they gave you charges

To spend on totems

[carmine flicker]

well.. it would be too easy I guess

you need to use combos to do anything in POE2
except LA builds I guess
and minions

[analog drum]

well i already got a nice shield i think lol

got a helmet too in the next five minutes

[muted stone]

Afternoon all, is this the correct link for path of building? https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding-PoE2
Latest version was released on September 16th. Im running the latest version but don't have access to druid or the new sorceress ascendency.

[unreal girder]

Not really tho

Most skills you can cast without combos

Im playing plant druid, its meant to be combined with thunderstorm, but for white mobs just the entangle clears fine, and I can also just CoC it for true 1 button.

That said you can do totem spam a different way with that other power charge genersting body armour and resonance

But I dont think skills should need a finnicky unique for basic functionality

[analog drum]

i loveeee root druid im early in and using fissure and roots

[carmine flicker]

how good is high lvl plant?

[unreal girder]

Im only in interludes so cant say for sure

But it feels like it should be good

[carmine flicker]

I switched to spectres in act2

idk if I should switch back

[tulip fog]

does ice crystals HP have any effect on the damage they deal when they are destroyed or detonated?

[carmine flicker]

120 free spirit was too tempting to not go minions

[unreal girder]

So far plants slapped the everliving shit out of the campaign and Im still using a wand I found in act2

[carmine flicker]

plant damage dropped to zero end act 1

so I switched

idk, may be thunderstorm would have fixed everything

[bold oxide]

yes thunderstorm fixes everything. put accelerated growth in entangle and use thunderstorm to overgrow the plants

its very strong

[unreal girder]

It absolutely does

Then once you get thrashinh vines is even better

Anyone try choir of the storm on oracle? Sounds like itd be great

[short topaz]

Are tornados decent late game?

[carmine flicker]

would trigger thunderstorm every 5 sec be enough?

[unreal girder]

Why every 5 seconds

[carmine flicker]

cast on minion death

[unreal girder]

Oh, I mean assuming you invest into duration roughly yes

[carmine flicker]

need 1 sec for minion to "burn" with right setup and 4 sec recovery

[unreal girder]

But its fine to selfcast

[carmine flicker]

I will run "reviving spectre" anyway for reformed barrier

may as well use it for smth

[carmine flicker]

also entangling or thrashing?

[unreal girder]

Entangle mainly then thrashing on bosses

[carmine flicker]

can instead put one of the vines type in that 5 second loop

also vines keystone worth it?

[bold oxide]

yes both. eventually put thunderstorm in cast on crit and then just use mostly entangle and use thrashing vines bosses/tough rares

yes take the plant and storm keystone

[carmine flicker]

I have "trigger every 5 sec" loop too with cast in minion death, so can put smth there too

may be thrashing in that loop, storm in CoC

[carmine flicker]

kaom's madness worth it for entangling?

[unreal girder]

Yes

Would spell totems proc choir of the storm lightning bolt?

[carmine flicker]

in general proxies don't procs things like that

doubt they would make exception for spell totem

[bold oxide]

not sure havent tried it

[unreal girder]

Didnt see it used on poeninja

[carmine flicker]

also lvl/scaling/damage of storm itself doesn't matter, only vines level?

so I can leave it lvl 5 to save mana?

[unreal girder]

Lvl matters

Cos it needs a threshold to to proc

Otherwise no

[short topaz]

Does blasphemy only scale off presence? Can it be buffed by stuff like magnify or area gems?

[carmine flicker]

does reduced duration reduce duration before accelerated growth explode?

[fading stone]

I found something for primal strikes or any build that needs high shock uptime. Thunderstorm with shock conduction 2 support. Hits from supported skill always shock drenched enemies. I league started an inferalist but after finding this I want to try building around it. Is there an ascendancy that would be better for primal strikes?

[tulip fog]

would this node

and these gloves

be a better option than elemental weakness with heightened curse and frost Bomb with potent exposure?

assuming i freeze enemies in like 2-3 hits at most

1 hit if blue/white mob

or is the ele weakness + frost bomb better?

[patent parrot]

hey guys, i need an alternative app to use instead of path of building

[sharp thorn]

No. They aren't supposed to work together.

[tulip fog]

what do you mean?

[mortal swift]

so I am returning after a bit,

How does flammability and ignite work in tandem?

[tulip fog]

dealing fire damage builds flammability, once it reaches 100% you ignite an enemy

[sharp thorn]

If you ignore resistance you cannot affect them in any way. Including penetrate and expose.

[mortal swift]

so I cant really pick which hit will ignite?

[tulip fog]

the passive says "hits ignore NON-NEGATIVE" so i should be able to penetrate down to negative with the gloves

[tulip fog]

once flammability reaches 100% it will not consume the flammability you can still use other skills to overwrite the ignite with a higher one

[sharp thorn]

Pen don't affect value. You count your hits as if your enemy had less resistances.

You ignore them. Meaning that if you penetrate nothing you still end up with nothing.

[tulip fog]

from the gloves

i read this as -50% is the new "0%"

[sharp thorn]

Dude, come on. Do you understand what nothing means?

It's not 0. It only counts as 0 for the purposes of damage.

[tulip fog]

then why is this combination of the gloves plus the passive showing as higher damage then using the elemental weakness curse in PoB if it doesnt penetrate to -50% as you say?

[sharp thorn]

Pob is not the source of truth, it can be wrong.

If you doubt me, better to test it in game.

[carmine flicker]

please, just test it in game
it's the only real way to settle this dispute

[upper viper]

Does the lightning bolt from the amulet. Effect entangle in anyway

[tulip fog]

how would i test it?

[sharp thorn]

Get gloves and path to the node.

[tulip fog]

then?

[carmine flicker]

then test damage on boss with gloves(and tons of pen) and without with skill with low damage range

boss show how much damage was done to him

[tulip fog]

so unequip all other damage supports?

[carmine flicker]

if they are the same - then don't need to

[sharp thorn]

That doesn't matter if everything else is unchanged.

[carmine flicker]

I mean skill that have like.. 100-120 damage or smth like that, not 1-200

[mortal swift]

ah I see I see, so its just a pointless counter in all technicality? Is there any point to it?

[tulip fog]

its an extra step you need to do to ignite, probably to counter people using low-damage hits to ignite oils or poison clouds

[sharp thorn]

Flammability for all intents and purposes replaced ignite chance. So if you struggle to ignite maybe you need better flammability buildup.

[tulip fog]

what would be a good boss to test out pen vs ele weakness against?

i am only in act 4 so far

[mortal swift]

[honest grail]

poe 2 bosses all have different amounts of res

[carmine flicker]

idk, may be that yeti in interlude

[honest grail]

penetration can only take their res down to 0% so it does nothing vs bosses that already have 0% of that res

[carmine flicker]

it's beefy enough to tank a few hits and easy to reach

[tulip fog]

there is a pair of gloves that can penetrate down to -50%

[serene shore]

For the herald of ice armor break proliferation tech, is it the armor break explosion that breaks armor with added ice damage that causes the proliferation?

[wispy mason]

did they change weaponswap or is it only happening in shapeshifted form that if i use an ability from weaponset one then i have to press an ability from weaponset 2 twice in order to actually use it, the first press only swaps me to set 2 but doesent immediatly cast the ability

[ebon rover]

Any act 4 builds to make werewolf less squishy? Just transitioned from plants to wolf, damage is insane but I get melted immediately

[short topaz]

Can a sorcerer make a strong wyvern?

Or is it too hard due to not having the shape shifting passives

[tulip fog]

ok, i tested the damage with the passive and the pen gloves and without the gloves and the passive.
with gloves + Passive (and about 42% Pen and a frozen enemy), it looks like the damage numbers is around 15% lower than with a plain elemental weakness on a blasphemy setup (no supports) and a frost bomb that applies like 40% exposure before it runs out of duration)

[bleak olive]

A1 here wanna help me making CI bear druid got currency working on it as we speak

[ornate anvil]

are you guys aware of any way to build combo for bell without using a quarterstaff?

[lime narwhal]

Are peeps leaning into armour/ES body armour for druid or going full ES?

[celest blaze]

bears should definitely go Armor / ES, EV / ES probably makes more sense for Wolf and maybe wyvern.

[lime narwhal]

I see, there no way in hell I can get my dexterity high enough for EV/ES though. druid is so attribute hungry in my experience so far

[celest blaze]

Only the chest piece is really high dex req. Just go pure int on the chest then and you're fine

[surreal rampart]

anyone could help me: doing a sorcerer wyvern build, could point out some things i should focus on on the skill tree?

[lime narwhal]

I'll see what I can do thanks. there are some spicy armour counts towards elemetal damage nodes on druid side though

[celest blaze]

yeah. AR / ES is quite strong. I'm sure it would be great on Wolf too.

EV / ES is just strong generally, and combined with lots of freezing it will likely feel good.

[lean seal]

Any cool Disciple of Varashta builds out there?

[warm zodiac]

+3 movement speed or +15% global defences? for rampage druid?

[lean seal]

Preferably minimum button clicking cause im old -_-

[lime narwhal]

mid way through interludes so its time to start planning defences for maps. having such a shit time on gear though.. still running around with act 2 and 3 stuff

[ornate anvil]

aparently theres a spectre that generates chilling ground

making it a one button build basically

besides on bossing where you have to spam the crit djinn as well

[lean seal]

got a link

by chance?

[ornate anvil]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vk1Ov3ghM7g

[celest blaze]

oh cool, that's awesome

[ornate anvil]

did not try that yet but it does look like every hit generates a chilling ground, so with a few and some attack speed you might be able to just spam djinn attack at a distance

instead of relying on bomb + ice nova

[pastel swift]

Just got to maps, playing mana stack dragon with mind of the council and avatar of fire, trying to order my defenses:

1. Do I do CI or do I go for life as a small buffer and options for life loss/regen->ZO
2. What spells would be best to put in a cast on ignite? A given breath will trigger a few casts, right now I'm triggering ele weakness but this is costly mana wise. Trying to avoid igniting oil with a weaker spell instead of the fire breath ignite.
3. Right now I'm using waveshaper, but if I drop recharge I should probably go for something else, any reccomendations other than a beefy rare? Would cloak of defiance MoM be worth it to get rid of the less regen?

[white spindle]

how do you do that lightning oil spill on bosses, dont you need to devour a body to get power charges to do it?

[bold oxide]

im doing typical full ES as garden oracle

[pastel swift]

I don't do lighting oil spill, I fire breath then oil for a giant burning ground

[white spindle]

im just messing with that lightning skill that melts bosses, enjoying it while i can lol

[pastel swift]

I got the take cold damage power charge charm, using that with adaptation works

[white spindle]

just switched over so not exaclty sure how it works yet on bosses

[austere veldt]

does Tornado actually do hits? Trying to figure this out - Poe2db lists it as being supportable by atziri's call and oisin's oath, which specifically support skills that hit enemies. If it doesn't, is poe2db wrong? Also, will Tornado inflict ailments from it's damage, or does it inflict ailments based on the ground effects that it sucks up?

[wraith palm]

Everything that isn’t a dot is a hit

[analog gale]

tornado says it deals x damage per second so it sounds like its a dot

but it could also just hit for x damage per second

no, its supported by damage over time supports

i got no idea

[silver tangle]

a question - would valako's vice and avatar of fire work?

[analog gale]

its tagged DegenOnlySpellDamage

[analog gale]

no

damage conversion that isnt built into a skill happens all at once

also avatar of fire means you can only deal fire damage

the lightning damage will become 0

[silver tangle]

nice, literal zdps build

that's what i've been looking for!

[analog gale]

may i suggest bifurcated crits oracle

[static plinth]

Is Decaying Hex affected by Curse Duration?

[silver tangle]

lmao what does it do, zdps as well?

or is it actually gucci

[static plinth]

Im playing EDC Oracle and this shit fuckin bangs

[analog gale]

no idea

probably pretty good

[silver tangle]

i mean, tangletoe oracle is a no-brainer, i am looking for sth more unique

[analog gale]

if you have at least somewhat decent crit chance

[static plinth]

Do EDC Oracle with me

[silver tangle]

also my question is if resolute technique will break the game if i have inevitable crit

[analog gale]

somebody did the math on it and you get the most benefit from the oracle 100% crit thing at 40% real crit chance

[silver tangle]

lvled a bit as such, played warrior too much to enjoy it again

[static plinth]

Align Fate will cast contagion (or essence drain, so you have to self-cast contagion unfortunately) on it's own, meaning you can just walk through a map without casting

[static plinth]

You never crit

[analog gale]

and Garukhan's Resolve caps your crit chance at 50 but effectively lets each crit crit twice

[static plinth]

Inevitable needs you to have at least 0.1% crit

[silver tangle]

oh, didnt see that one

[static plinth]

Or rather the wording is "Hits that COULD critically strike..."

[analog gale]

also your crit bonus only gets lowered if you didnt naturally crit

[austere veldt]

so then, do ailments require a hit to be applied? Haven't been able to find something that definitively says that.

[static plinth]

+Align Fate is 30% more Essence Drain damage on bosses (it wont cast contagion if everything on screen is affected), and +1 totems for Dark Effigy, and the hidden nodes have poison chance for another DE projectile

[frail fable]

Does this apply to any n all skills even spells?

[analog gale]

https://poe2db.tw/us/Inevitable_Critical_Hits

yep

[frail fable]

So how bout tornados?

[analog gale]

you can take this new cultivated unique as oracle and blow yourself up with volatility

[frail fable]

Was thinking of switching to oracle

[austere veldt]

that thing is hilarious and someone is going to get a great use out of it

[analog gale]

oh Volatility can be gained once every 0.1 seconds

theres a cap on how fast you can build up volatility

apparently theres a support gem with volatility on crit

oh yeah ggg added that support that makes a skill explode some of your volatility

[celest oxide]

How should I build defences on Wyvern ES, Armour, or ES+Armour?

[livid thorn]

question for my bear druids, can aftershocks trigger on every stomp during rampage or is the aftershock trigger chance calculated before the slam skill starts?
with 35% aftershock gem

[leaden shoal]

If im doing a plant spell druid build should i go with oracle or shaman?

[fierce charm]

thats what im saying its very strong single target I wonder how you could auto ignite without using another skills now lol

hmmm or instead of rend maybe the fire ball skill might be pretty strong that the dragon has

ooo flame breath auto ignites that might be very strong as well

[lime narwhal]

considering switching to oracle instead of shaman for wolf attack build for the crit and path unseen

Don't really see much gain to be had for shaman for this, don't really need the spirit and apocalypse is a joke needing 100 glory

is Oracle the better fit?

[fierce charm]

hmmm but it has 60% less ignite magnitude

yeah oracle is superr strong for crits

[pastel vapor]

anyone have any ideas on how to use the new shapeshifting nodes to make an interesting build for infernalist's demon form?

[muted stone]

Has path of building been updated to include Druid and the new ascendency? Mine is still lacking the new update. Just want to make sure it’s not just me…

[celest oxide]

Apparently Whirling Assault is really strong

[dense pier]

hi, ive just deactivated my herald of ice and herald of thunder and now it wont let me activate it again, i have 90 spirit, tried to reequip my gear, gems but it still doesnt let me activate again, anyone had this kind of issue ?

[frail fable]

Getting tired of seeing all the furry builds ngl

[summer pasture]

It should be every one. Also the titan ascendcy node that grants every other slam ancestral boost applies to every other rampage slam

[burnt gust]

Hi, can anyone make sense for me why we see a big change once Arjun is involved? Thinking about which Asc is best for Galvanic but I dropped Arjun.

[graceful anvil]

After these few days, there's still no effective/tested druid build, but what are the no-life streamers doing?

[summer pasture]

Walking calamity bear from palestron, nyguien has a plant build I believe

[unreal girder]

Did anyone try the demon bear unique?

How is it?

[unreal girder]

Most of them are attack centric

[pastel vapor]

Yes, but I see like half of them around damage instead, which I think will help with spells

if I summon vines with weapon set 1, then I swtich to weapon set 2, then vines attack enemies, will it use the stats from set 1 or set 2??

[iron vigil]

Are there any skills that create a persistent aura-like damaging effect? Like an aura of ice, fire, poison, etc. It would be like a ring of persistent damage

[wet zealot]

Hi, pleaseAny ideas for a permafrost Bolt+ Fragmentation combo? Is it viable? for end game

[dense cargo]

could anyone potentialy show how big is medium range on skill tree

could i reach that from this keystone for example

with this of course

[frail fable]

Bro like

It’s mainly why I find wanna do it

Didn’t *

Even tho wolf n bear op

[summer pasture]

I mean that's shouldn't stop you from trying druid or shapeshift stuff

Who cares as long as your having fun

[frail fable]

I’m shaman

[frail fable]

I am

But using the tornado skill

Have a nice build setup for it just missing a few things

[hallow terrace]

anyone know if increased skill effect duration affect flame breath uptime?

[simple turret]

Any potential for an ACC stacking Amazon furry build? Wolf?

[summer pasture]

No, it's based off how much rage you have

It's has a rage cost/sec after the first 4? Seconds

[hallow terrace]

damn kinda misleading just cause the increased skill effect node for wyvern is called endless soaring

[magic condor]

any1 help? pob keeps givin this error and idk why

[gritty moat]

Are talisman considered two handed weapons

[analog gale]

hey chat

what ascendancy should i take for wyvern?

im thinking amazon

could also go oracle

[calm orchid]

would you guys say Oracle is better for the keystone effect or Shaman for the bonded?

[analog gale]

what are you wanting to do?

[calm orchid]

you know

that is a great question

and i answered my own question

lol thanks

[analog gale]

becuase the answer is it depends

you gotta tell us

did you pick pathfinder

[calm orchid]

i'm semi following a build planner but i was wanting to experiement with the bonded

[nimble latch]

Why do we still use threads for each ascendancy if discord limits people from actually asking questions there?

[calm orchid]

but i don't think it's worth the respec this early in the league

i'll just stick with oracle for the keystone

[nimble latch]

I tried to ask a technical question in storm weaver thread and discord basically told me to kick rocks

Cause of thread limit

I'm not cool enough

I can talk in deadeye thread tho, winning

[dark moth]

i love the vines spell i want to see more builds around it

sorc is so much cooler w these new druid spells XD

[wispy fjord]

can anyone explain to me how the savage fury bug works?

[still bough]

Can I extend the duration of "recently" somehow?

[summer pasture]

No and recently is 4 seconds

[summer pasture]

If you have it set to a weapon set to and you're not using it you still build fury to be able to use the skill eventually even though you don't have that weapon on

[still bough]

yeah, im just trying to look for ways to maximize the time without necessarily also increasing skill speed

doing a Lightning/Plant + Wyvern druid rn

focusing on Devour and Arcane Surge buffs

going into Apocalypse when I hit second ascendancy

[thin basin]

what lvl do u need for the 4th basic attack socket?

[lusty shard]

Does someone here use Encased in Jade (jade heritage) from warbringer asc. tree? Do you have to activate the skill yourself? Or does it automatically trigger on its own once it reaches 10 stacks?

[valid umbra]

question about the Berserk persistent buff: does the life loss scale with maximum rage?

[slender furnace]

i have watched so many people playing bear and everyone just ignores Ancestral Cry...why? It's such a big damage and qol boost. I cast once and i've got it up to like one minute and ten seconds or so.

'

[valid umbra]

It's much easier to obtain the glory needed for WC

at least in my experience

[slender furnace]

you can play both, thats the point...WC generates the glory for cry from all the ignites

i go in a map, get my WC up, and after one, maybe two casts, cry is up

though i wish i could track my charges for cry, because i cant find them anywhere

then you're basically just rampaging through the map with every slam boosted for over a minute

but maybe its only smith things because of the glory gen...though i feel like it would work even without

[valid umbra]

I already play with Savage Fury as well, monitoring 3 buffs at the same time just got to be tedious.

[slender furnace]

i'd take a minute + ancestral cry buff over savage fury any day of the week...theres no downside to cry

its just 30% more damage and aoe for all slams, plus you get the ancestral version of maul for added qol, on top of all the other damage skills it adds like the stomp and projectiles

plus you get to add in extra gems because you dont need any of the slam boost gems anymore as you are just going to be almost perma boosted for most of the map

[summer pasture]

60 iirc

[dreamy mulch]

Anyone know a good entangle gem setup for damage/clear?

[mint lodge]

Anyone got the hydrosphere skill gem and wanna trade for it

[paper arrow]

Branching fissures, accelerated growth, heft, considered casting.

[dreamy mulch]

cannot use accelerated grown(as shaman, it counts as a skill thus costs rage on its trigger)

[cedar aspen]

Yeah, detonator skills. The only two for Druid are flame breath and rolling magma.

[sharp glade]

this talk of primers and detonators reminds me of Dragon age inquisition's combat

a dull affair...

[cedar aspen]

It would be nice if other skills were counted as detonators, or for a fact that any skill that’s doing fire damage should be able to light “oil” on enemies.

Kinda confusing that wyvern is spewing out Castrol at $2.45 a gallon and it can’t be lit on fire with a literal meteor shower?

[sharp glade]

their current direction reminds me of the way bioware took all the combos from origins (like casting fear on a sleeping enemy creates a nightmare and they take massive psychic damage) and turned them into generic primer/detonator gameplay, just like GGG is doing atm.

[carmine flicker]

well, it's hard to do "organic" combos

it's either primer/detonator, builder/spender or just "debuff and then unleash hell"

oh, and ofc "keep 3-4 buffs running by clicking them every 10-12 seconds" type of gameplay cancer

[burnt finch]

is oracle better than shaman for werewolf build? cant decide

[sharp glade]

yes good things are hard to make that's the point

I saw the writing on the wall, when I saw so many of the legendary designers of ggg leaving the company

[mint lodge]

Anyone have hydrosphere

[dreamy mulch]

do multiple instances of bleed stack?

[tranquil steeple]

anyone tried oracle with bifurcate? Wondering how it would work

[deep loom]

is there any monk pro who can help me i bricked my build and cant continue to play right :S

[atomic halo]

i dont think that that's in poe2?

also in poe1 you just buy that from a vendor, no need to ask for it

[pure otter]

I really want to make my bleed crit huntress work but I can't get any good feeling ranged attacks :/

Is there anyway to convert lightning spears lightning damage to physical?

[fierce charm]

Ahhh so what i may end up doing is switching to flame breath cuz rn its a bit early for me to tell tbh cuz i do so much dps i would assume the real testing comes around T10 - T13 and up

[fierce charm]

Literally tho i wish they would make all flame abilities ignite but its all good ig breath seems strong

[dreamy mulch]

Are there any ways to regen moren than 4.3% of my health per second... on a spell caster?

(i ask because of berserk aura)

[tribal salmon]

what does primal rage do if it removed the rage effect

[cedar aspen]

Yeah that’s what I might do for bossing maybe. It’s going to feel weird to do; two channelling skills one after another? But I’d make the most of both of them before they get nerfed, I will be surprised if oil barrage avoids it.

Hell maybe it’s working as intended and it’s supposed to be that the empowered lightning strikes cause the oil to ignite or something. I dunno.

Let me know how it goes! Going to see if I can get on it and start tonight.

[cedar aspen]

Makes rage act as a resource, like mana basically. Used for skills that use rage as a resource like some of the Druid skills do.

[turbid lantern]

GUYS HOW CAN I COPY A GEAR FROM THE MARKET TO THE POB?

[winged oxide]

Do arsonists Explosive Demise not work? None of my minions are exploding 🙁

[celest oxide]

Wyvern or Bear?

[tribal salmon]

ty

[fierce charm]

Bettt i shall!

[outer fjord]

Wing flaps and fire
Or
Belly flops and stampeding

Can’t go wrong

[real flare]

Hello. I'd like to ask a question. I cooked up this kind of "elemental wyvern" I suppose - using Devour, Rend, Wingblast and Oil Barrage. Probably it's nothing unseen so far, but I'd like to ask for advice, how I can reliably generate power charges at this point, when there's no targets for Devour around. I'd like to use empowered Oil Barrage agains single target bosses too.

[celest oxide]

Agreed, I've tried both and can't decide

[halcyon vessel]

Trying to make something happen with Reap and Disciple of Varashta with Kelari Crit-Weakness debuffing. Anybody doing something similar?

[celest oxide]

I think maybe Bear has more to look forward to endgame

what with saving for FotK and whatnot

Wyvern I kinda feel like you get Oil Barrage and like

[outer fjord]

Yeah im doing bear rn but waiting to see what ends up better for mapping

[celest oxide]

well there's your build

[unique gyro]

Whats the best non spell druid build rn

[mint lodge]

I looked it up but maybe im mistaken

[tribal salmon]

u can stun the boss then use wing blast to get power charges

[thick thunder]

besides 100% arcane surge uptime, are there any other super obvious mechanics that can be abused with inevitable crit?

[real flare]

It might be difficult, I'll look that way, thanks!

[celest oxide]

What's 4th ascendency for Bear Shaman you guys think? 120 Spirit for Charm Slots or Bonded Runes?

[tribal salmon]

or u can try to use lingering illusion
if they break ur illusion u can get power charges

[celest oxide]

If first 3 are Wellspring and Reactive Growth

[real flare]

Oh, that looks interesting

[atomic halo]

if you could like what you saw that would be helpful

[mint lodge]

I just found out its not in 2 unfortunately

[fringe lagoon]

What are some ways to generate elemental terrain? There is a support gem for chill, unique boots for lightning, what else?

[tidal copper]

How can i see all the "Unseen path" passives???

[tribal salmon]

its the blue lines in the passive tree

[zenith valley]

How to generate power charges as wyvern outside of devour? Just hit lvl 31 and have oil barrage finally

[abstract hawk]

unique armor, or use wing blast then heavy stun an enemy

[pure otter]

Is there anyway to make lightning spear cause bleeding?

[opaque bluff]

can anyone explain what triggers overgrown? I cant see anything

i can see one notable with 20% chance, is that basically it?

[static plinth]

You need to ascend to Oracle, however you can ascend, not spend any points, and i believe you can immediately change to Shaman if youd rather if you dont spend any

None of the passive trees currently updated are any good to showcase them, tbh

[static plinth]

There are some spells that create rain/water

Thunderstorm comes to mind

Those will Overgrow your plants

[manic venture]

Anyone know why using Arctic Howl and Amor Mandragora, plus Enraged Warcry I slotted into Arctic Howl. Arctic Howl is set to Weapon Set II only where Amor Mandragora is, and I am not getting the Druidic Prowess buff. Even double casting, casting when close to frozen/near frozen enemies, making sure I get the empower, nothing is making the buff proc. Any ideas why this wouldn't be working? I even tried doing it all on just a single weapon set, and it still won't give me the buff. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nrtYUi6Gv7Q&t=647s dreamcore is doing it in this video with the bear warcry I can't figure out why it doesn't work with Arctic Howl or if I'm doing something wrong.

[carmine flicker]

poe2db tree does show them

[silver summit]

Does the updated lightning warp debuff recasting lightning warp count as a triggered skill for the purpose of passives?

[flat orbit]

i’m at 65% crit chance and 295% crit bonus playing flicker rn (still v early maps)

what should i be aiming for? rn the flicker part of my build feels v weak LOL

but i’m assuming it’s just because of my chance and bonus

[lime tinsel]

This one is silly, im a few nodes away from having 80 rage

wolfhowl

[atomic halo]

honestly dont get why ggg designs supports like this but that's outside of the scope of this channel

[pastel vapor]

do you know of any others? The only other I can think of is the water ability from the varastra (new sorc) ascendacy for a total of 2 skills

[lime tinsel]

i have a feeling this league was started well before it was ready. quite a few bugs and silly stuff like this gem.
especially cosidderign they diddnt even do the endgame changes that was supposed to be this patch.

[pastel vapor]

I was honestly surprised there was a patch before xmas. 3 months is not a very long dev cycle

[lime tinsel]

its supposed to be two separate teams, with 6 months each per "game"

With the state of this leauge, i doubt it tough 😅

[pastel vapor]

Yes but it was only 3 months since the last patch

I guess the question is, would people have preferred if there was no patch and the season started in Feb 2026 instead? At least in this way, they get feedback faster if they have the resources to adjust and take it in

[cedar aspen]

Oh one more thing that was changed about ignite that I’m still trying to learn what it means and it’s this term called Compounding.

So, from what I gather, if you do a hit with fire damage that causes and ignite to be bigger damage than a current ignite on and enemy, the previous ignite will add ignite magnitude to the new ignite?

Did I get that right?

And is that only on fire skills that have compound within their description or for all ignitions in general?

[lime tinsel]

3 months between poe1 and poe2 leagues is a decent amount of time, 3 months between two poe2 leagus may be a bit to close.

Also yay for the new patch notses, several temple bug fixes. the coop one sucked 👀

Weve lost ~5 temples to that before figureing out what was causing it.

[viral sage]

what is sorc equivalent to witch CED for clearing? early campaign

[celest oxide]

CED also lol

[dreamy mulch]

I wish GGG would put some generic DoT multi on tree so that CED and other dot effects would get some actual love

[fathom notch]

Anyone know an easy way to create chilled ground?

[midnight spoke]

Does efficiency support reduce glory cost? just says 40% reduced cost.

[silver summit]

Frost nexus

Suport gem

[viral sage]

i just felt its not optimized to use CED for sorc since the passive tree a bit difference in the beginning and i want to use mainly elemental dmg

[ruby bluff]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/8851bd75-5e3c-4218-beeb-7f719363bc89/builds/9572011d-eaed-41f4-af1c-ed7789312e70
my first ever build if i could get some tips on how my page looks or if anyone who is interested take a look as im always looking for imporvment and new ideas

[fathom notch]

What spell would be best? I notice people using it alot with frost bolt.

[silver summit]

Frost nova snap or frostbolt and frost wall. Make sure to get wild shards on frost bolt and snake pit, turning off the pierce is like a 300% dps boost

[celest oxide]

So is abyss dead now

I just got to Maps 😢

[toxic mason]

how to turn off the pierce, i was looking for a way to do more dmg with Frostbolt

[silver summit]

With snakepit

It’s a ring

[toxic mason]

expensive?

[silver summit]

https://poe2db.tw/us/Snakepit

30ex last I checked

[toxic mason]

ty

[silver summit]

Oh nvm it’s 4ex now

Jesus

[alpine summit]

anyone has an endgame fire djinn build?

[median kraken]

I don't know if it's fire but I know ds_Lily is playing Djinns

Also Goratha is playing Djinn Ascendancy with plants

[alpine summit]

i was playing something similar to gorathas

but i got bored of it

[lean canyon]

did someone try to make an assassin only disciple of varashta? So like no minions and no cold/fire just going around with the assassin djinn?

[tall ingot]

anyone know if this drops from a specific blue animal?

or can it be any one of them

[alpine summit]

the clear may be too slow imo

i havent tried bc the cooldowns on his abilities

[lean canyon]

oh deamn, but how s damage and aoe wise?

because im playing bear and I thought it would be more fun ngl

so im already thinking of my next build

[alpine summit]

single target damage is good

aoe kinda mid

[lean canyon]

deamn I hoped to try a quick and sneaky assassin type build

[queen crypt]

Hey folks - haven't started the league yet and am tossing up between Huntress and Warrior for my class as I haven't played either before. Anyone got any content creators/recommended builds for them for a POE2 newb/casual who plays mostly SSF?

[pastel forge]

is this a troll notable? lol

[old ermine]

what does everyone think is better, wold or bear?

[upper viper]

This considered good with almost like 90% freeze upkeep ?
I betchu the numbers are wrong both in pob and in game.

[river schooner]

both are very micro-intensive, but i'd say both are strong as hell. although the wolf is a bit more trapped in the same rotation - you pretty much have to do the same shit, but it's also very cool-looking so i dont get tired. While bear can have some variations/ shortcuts (roar into slam etc + calamity is pretty much passive)

[karmic cedar]

how do I make the wolves from wolf pack respawn? I havent played a minion build before, I thought it was automatic but they seem to stay dead

do I need some extra skill for that?

[supple jay]

why does catalysis not work with the charms that give you charges on use?
is phys damage just super rare or something?

at least it doesnt seem to be working for me

[timid cloud]

made a pretty op oracle wolf, if you want dm me will send you a pob

[tiny sky]

i got a question, do support gems stack now, im following a build that has escalating poison on two different skill gems

[rich bolt]

Reverse knock back hollow palm windblast with fan the flames and avatar of fire. Just dumb enough to work or too memey?

[pastel forge]

no more restrictions on supps, can have lightning pen etc on all skills

[tiny sky]

thank you

[pastel forge]

anyone knows how this works?

if they have 75% res it can be treated as -75%?

[turbid lantern]

whos here doing Pathfinder poison and using pob?? need a simple help

whos here using pob?? need a simple help.

[median kraken]

Yep

[pastel forge]

damn thats op

[turbid lantern]

whos here using pob?? need a simple help..my skill dmg is diffrent from the pob? which title or which name i should look at ?

[silver summit]

https://poe2db.tw/us/Rakiatas_Flow

It gets better

[pastel forge]

i imagine the lineage stuff are like several divs in prices lol

[median kraken]

Tons of people use PoB, but there are tons of reasons. Although if you're comparing in-game tooltip to PoB damage... Don't. They usually won't match

[silver summit]

Some of them get pretty pricey yeah

[median kraken]

Rakiata's was way, way more expensive than just about any others last league

[pastel forge]

im playing invoker wyvern atm so i can do with that passive alone i think haha

[turbid lantern]

whom to trust?

i want to change tree and buy stuff

[silver summit]

Ataluis was like 4x the price of rakiatas I thought

And the quality one too

I forget the name

[static plinth]

10% more damage if you arent Shocking

Pretty strong

Damage Taken is multiplicative with Resistances and Damage Dealt

[pastel forge]

oh its a debuff like shock, gotcha

[pastel forge]

thanks

[static plinth]

If you're shocking, its not nearly as big of a deal, cuz its additive with other Increased Damage Taken

So if you do a 20% shock, its only 3.3% more damage

Which is still solid but you might get more damage elsewhere

[pastel forge]

well im getting the ignite nodes right next to it so might as well

not sure how to feel about the lack of keystones for wyvern so far but i guess thats normal now

[rustic bough]

Am i dumb or is POB only showing stats when not shapeshifted? is there an option im missing

[pastel forge]

idk, i cant even find wyvern breath in pob so i guess its kinda borked

[frail obsidian]

Yall you can put lightning warp on a spell totem

And it just insta culls everything

Would go crazy with culling threshold nodes in the archer area but infinite crits to get power charges with voll is kinda crazy on Druid

[wild dirge]

if I use fire penetration ii support gem to ignore fire resistance on an enemy, and then I apply exposure, the skill with that fire pen gem on it will gain no benefit from exposure, right?

I have consistent application of exposure, so I am wondering if it is better for me to run fire pen 1 support gem and then just find one additional source of fire res reduction so I can bring enemies to <0% fire res instead of just 0

[livid flume]

is surrounded based off presence at all?

or does presence apply to surrounded

[torn mango]

Can the cloud portion of Gas Grenade proc “on hit” effects like bleed?

[manic lynx]

I've been messing around with Plants and Chronomancer. The Sands of Time node really ramps up the plant dps 😂. The 60% cast speed goes crazy.

[static plinth]

No, Surrounded is it's own thing

[austere veldt]

Hi guys, so I've been trying to figure out how to get tornado to work for a bit now. I've finally figured out a setup that I'm happy with - freezing mark supported with frost nexus and charged mark will generate both chilled and shocked ground upon freezing the marked target. Burning inscription gets burning ground. GREAT. Now, I have been leveling an invoker and HATING it, and I now realize that I dont need invoker to generate my ground effects anymore. Welp. Since this seems pretty agnostic, what's the ascendency to go for?

[pastel forge]

bloodmage i guess? since its a spell

[austere veldt]

It doesn't crit.

[pastel forge]

more spell dmg modifiers should work right? then demon possession for infernalist can work if you can manage the life loss

[austere veldt]

I'm actually looking at lich right now, after reading through everything. I kind of think it might work. It's got a ton of more damage on the tree, and I can do a ton of defensive points since there's not a ton I can do to scale tornado directly on the tree.

[dusty lance]

in wolf form do you get slowed by your own ice?

[austere veldt]

I don't believe so, no

[pastel forge]

shaman is also an option if you have a way to scale up your rage decently enough

[austere veldt]

That's true. I mostly didn't want to do shaman, because if I'm playing shaman, it's for apocalypse

and since tornado doesn't hit, apocalypse is a no go

[pastel forge]

not too many options for pure tornado it seems, unless you pair it with something else

[austere veldt]

I know what I'm about, and it's investing ludicrous amounts of time and effort into make a sub-optimal skill work.

the first league, I spent like 20 hours working on a forstfire flameblast build lol. I stalled out at t10

[pastel forge]

wait a few patches for debuff dmg nodes to get added for tornado

[austere veldt]

I want my spinny triple element circle now

[silver summit]

Ok I think there might be some funny stuff going on with hayoxi fulmination on elemental weakness w

Needs more testing but

It’s insta adding all 3 ailments

[static wagon]

does disabling rage effect disable this

[median kraken]

If something says "rage grants" then disabling rage effect will disable it. If something says "...per X rage" then it won't

So yes, it will disable the armor bonus

[lime narwhal]

if I want to change ascendancy (I'm at 4 points) do I just need to unspec my points and run a 2 floor trial of sekhema? thinking of changing to oracle for wolf attack build

[deep scarab]

any easy way to get rage or frenzy for deadeye?

[ashen mulch]

Does the Wolf Pack persistent buff wolfs count as multiple targets? for cases like Pounce predator mark?

[proud sorrel]

Is there any reason I shouldn't be able to socket Volcano under "Fire Spell on Hit" skill from Smith of Kitva ascendency?

[silver urchin]

It has the Channeling tag and from what I know, you can't trigger channeling skills
I haven't tried it though

[silver urchin]

I believe so

[silver urchin]

theres a support gem that gives a charge when you freeze/pin/(something else) and enemy

[wet fern]

I think I've gone too far with theorying a pure wolf pack oracle shaman

[coarse cypress]

Does feral fury scale with "while shapeshifted" nodes?

[frail fable]

Can you not use idol of maxarius on oracle to increase storm count?

Or Is it only for shaman

[silver urchin]

Shaman only

[frail fable]

Bet

What’s a good gem setup for apocalypse

[dense pumice]

Any non djinn summoners here? I'm getting burnt out by all the buttons I have to press

[silent prawn]

all the buttons?

[ancient moss]

i bought unique gloves with slow magnitude to improve my temporal chains slow.
It works as imagined when i use temporal chains solitarily but when temp chains is in blasphemy aura gem the 30% slow from gloves are not getting applied. is this intentional or bugged?

[orchid galleon]

Anione playing Lightning Arrow Deadeye in 0.4? Hows the build doing?

[frail fable]

Anyone know?

[minor tree]

if i had an endless supply of power charges, to spam zombies with, what would be the best way to weaponize them? 🤔

since now each cast spawns 3 i get to the cap so quickly

[frail fable]

Also would elemental invocation work with tornados effected by ground effects?

[supple jay]
