i will say the gauntlet stuff had me a bit on the fence in campaign, but after that it was fine

cobalt blade
#

tho i guess people just didnt read

onyx adder
#

I mean i quit at level 90 but thats because i got bored and could path my next four days of upgrades in my head

#

Not because of the box

cobalt blade
#

for sure

cobalt blade
final owl
#

i didn't quit at 90 just because i was already done with keepers I guess

cobalt blade
#

with toned down enrage it seems quite a bit better

final owl
#

and i wanted to at least ttry to give idols a proper go this time around

#

in the end, i didn't really. but still. the potential was there 😛

onyx adder
#

The OG enrage wasnt fun tbh too much content wasnt tuned around it

#

Sometimes that can be fun but when u have no build giga speed mods are troll

spice pecan
#

that enrage was legit fucked up

#

lmao

final owl
#

i got pancaked a whole bunch of times getting caught by enrages

cobalt blade
#

im still not sure if the enrage sped up harbies but it felt like it did so i liked it

oh and it was also fun in feared valdos made them somewhat challenging outside of the tank sponge maps

@icy zinc explosive concoction alt qual seems kinda busted, tf?

#

Why does this same item have different stats?

spice pecan
#

some uniques have different variants

#

ralakesh boots are one example

cobalt blade
#

theres an armour es > evasion es> arm evasion version of those boots

#

each one has a different effect

fickle glen
#

Hmm shouldn’t they have named them differently, such as replica?

leaden quiver
#

nope

#

as replicas (except for one stupid exception) come from Heist

cobalt blade
#

its a thematic unique for a delirious unique imo

leaden quiver
#

theres more cases of that too

#

all abyss uniques have different variants with # abyss sockets

not due to legacy?

hmm making an abyss jewel stacker possible in 3.28 without phrecia will be hard

you just use shroud of the lightless, you use lightpoacher

what is the best combination to hit 3p and 2 s

leaden quiver
#

and make sure you cant cast the lightpoacher spell

#

with archmage + lifetap or whatever

whole bluff
leaden quiver
#

then you permanently have the 5% of phys added as each element

Based on this chart

best way to hit 3p 2s

XD

cobalt blade
golden phoenix
ocean field
#

I don't get this part

cobalt blade
#

But uh this char is based on alting and then reusing your bases as best as possible

ocean field
#

2p/2s and 2p/2s what is the split here

cobalt blade
#

You hit 1p/1s that line

brazen vector
cobalt blade
#

its basically telling you the optimal one to recomb based on your own rng

ocean field
#

yeah but what exatcly is the 2p/2s + 2p/2s do u have like different prefix in each

#

or can you have common ones

cobalt blade
#

3 total prefix you want 1 matching on each side

#

so %es flat es - flat es hybrid es recomb those for 2p side

ocean field
#

say I have to hit this

cobalt blade
#

Repeat for 2s but yknow int dex dex str whatever

golden phoenix
#

Sometimes I consider learning to recombinate. Then I remember bla

ocean field
brazen vector
#

thats just tree tree

#

then eldritch for int/supp

whole bluff
#

My guess is you only input mods you want? I thought it could randomly add bricks though?

cobalt blade
#

slam %es+flat int into %suppress/flat es and then follow the line based on wat you get back

whole bluff
#

Like you go from 1p or 1s and smash together up to 3p/3s

cobalt blade
#

If you only give it % es flat es those are the only 2 mods it can output

whole bluff
#

Ah, neat

cobalt blade

#

Fracs should be stupid cheap compared to recomb cost

ocean field

I didn't know this

Yes

so recomb does not add random mods on it's own

#

Its honestly not hard to learn the only real annoying part is learning the optimal use for your failed recombs

tawdry olive
#

tier 2 is when non native/natural mods come in and you do crazy things like transfer mods to good bases, from bad fractures, get double influenced mods + triple T1 etc

cobalt blade
#

that end up in weird 3s 1p states or something

whole bluff
cobalt blade

tier 2 is where the real profit crafting is happening, but you dont have to get yourself so deep in there

sounds like nerd roleplay foreplay

cobalt blade
# leaden quiver share the knowledge

very very basic explanation

if you have isolated tailwind on a pair of evasion based boots and want to transfer it to int base boots - you can do screaming essences of str on the int pair of boots(make sure its influ ofc) - annul it down so the only suffix is str - anytime you recomb its a 50/50 to move said mod and you can never lose the tailwind because that natural tier of str from ess cant roll on either pair of boots

#

theres much more advanced shit you can do to finish suffixes entirely on said recomb but i cba to explain how to setup those bases

# leaden quiver share the knowledge

Here's an example already made for you by @opal ingot
you reach step 1 by using the tier 1 recomb knowledge i mentioned earlier, and make the "perfect" item with the tier 2 knowledge

this is suspicious

cobalt blade

but yes the principle and concepts behind it are extremely flexible, doesnt have to be for painge crafting like that

grizzled lily

i need teasers and i need them NEOW

simply moving temple chill mod to a good base will use similar concepts

I got this from my friend last league near perfection

spice pecan

werent attack totems just used for buffs or something

scarlet jacinth
#

They could do better job making spells and attacks equal. But not all attacks are amazing

crisp obsidian

and then they removed those and buffed attacks

cobalt blade

#

I dont think the difference between attacks and spells in general is particularly large atm

grizzled lily
#

GGG please make it so syndicate encounters can be toggled, i hate the safehouse GGG im begging u

onyx adder

But that statement is so general its not rly super meaningful to debate

The balance RN is 2 good spells vs 50 insane attacks

frigid wedge

awawawawawa

whole bluff
#

I think like, most single hit self cast spells haven't had a 10th of the dmg potential of most attacks for probably closer to a decade?

frigid wedge
#

i back

onyx adder
#

Well at low to mid gear its all competitive and at high gear ur scaling method matters way more than attack or spell

crisp obsidian
onyx adder
#

Ur actual skill is just scaling delivery mechanism

coral summit
normal hedge
cobalt blade
whole bluff
#

Imo the thing is kinda, fireball is not that bad for a spell, but it's really horrible for a skill

normal hedge
#

prismatic tincture is a 80% more dmg alone wym 40%

onyx adder
#

Theres probably more basically identical attacks than there are spells to pick from at high gear but do u actually care about that since what matters for ur build is scaling and defenses not ur actual skill that u slot in

crisp obsidian
#

what scaling does spells have tho

coral summit
#

speaking of, is there an easy way to automate offering skills without having to use queen's hunger or just cwdt, cuz I'm fishing for a way to automate w/ death offering

whole bluff

Jiquani

cobalt blade
onyx adder
normal hedge
cobalt blade
#

But also im assuming your not perfectly rolling them early

onyx adder
#

Its not making a difference to ur required gear for pinnacles

cobalt blade
crisp obsidian
#

yeah anything can do quest pinnacles

#

that's not what anyone is arguing

#

or even normal pinnacles

cobalt blade
#

which if you don't do an inc mana burn rate tincture for that pob padding quite good uptime

#

also yeah im assuming uber scaling by day 3-4 comfortably

crisp obsidian
onyx adder
cobalt blade
#

which for spells its mostly archmage eblade and jiquanis

crisp obsidian
onyx adder
#

Like it doesnt actually matter whether theres 2 spells u can put with jiquanis or 50 its just art

spice pecan
#

i dont think ppl have been playing archmage this league

at far less cost and more effectiveness

such as kboc

cobalt blade
onyx adder
#

I just think y'all are thinking about ur builds wrong

cobalt blade
#

saw a few early that swapped to kboc fast on ninja

cobalt blade
onyx adder
#

And what actually matters is ur defenses and scaling method

spice pecan
#

i mean i'm a spell enjoyer, but that's just because i am scared of weapon dps and tinctures

normal hedge

yeah wtd is right spells are good and attacks are bad

definitely not vortex

onyx adder

If u want to be hyper efficient in ssf early ur playing earthshatter, sure

crisp obsidian
#

I just want to be able to play spells without having to either sacrifice defences or do funky shit to fix mana costs

#

and have some QoL

#

but no

#

that's not allowed

cause you can scale spells by 2 different methods!

wow that's so goooood!

if i play dd ill play the finished version of the last dd i played

If u want to be hyper efficient in trade and ur not a monkey ur doing endgame in the first few days regardless of whether ur doing it with elehit or wander or pbod or whatever it is u want to do

frigid wedge

#

Just dont click rf or heavy strike or some other pile of garbage that cant do content early and ur fine

cobalt blade
#

it was good with the fire trigger in settlers kinda just okay outside of that?

crisp obsidian

#

Then u pick a scaling method u want

frigid wedge
onyx adder
#

U pick defenses u want

crisp obsidian
#

I can't

scarlet jacinth

Mjolnir could be interesting

And u pick a skill that fits

either I pick scaling or I pick defences

i remember that now i watched way too much of him doing lab xd

frigid wedge
#

it goes zoom tho with corpse pact as

onyx adder
#

Below that yea sure theres a lot more mid attacks than mid spells

#

U will do better on like

frigid wedge
#

and 11 aps on frenzy is so stupid

yeah okay so I am forced to play pbod

#

so spells are good

cause pbod exists

cobalt blade

#

Random attack

#

Than u will trying to play self cast arc

#

But i mean idk why we care about either of those things

#

Because ur not gonna do that unless ur memeing

frigid wedge
cobalt blade
#

compared to on any strike skill +1-2 strikes melee range and for smite specifically aoe scaling

frigid wedge
#

explosions kinda required to make pbod feel good as a mapper

cobalt blade
coral summit
#

storm burst doesnt need any of those 3 things, but it's also one of the most jank setups imaginable otherwise

frigid wedge
#

as someone who has played multiple variants of it

onyx adder
coral summit
#

chaos conversion+damage as extra+duration scaling

onyx adder
#

Theyre good at different stuff

crisp obsidian
#

spells aren't good at anything

cobalt blade
#

wut slams are above average speed wise for early maps

#

well if you gambled axes in campaign properly and got a good one or bought one on trade*

#

you don't really hit a wall and you have leap slam

onyx adder
#

But the general point is that at the top level u got options, below that is less relevant than ppl think unless theyre really bored and memeing, and what actually matters is defenses and scaling not the art attached to ur skill

frigid wedge
#

awh fuck i gotta figure out what to start

crisp obsidian
#

that might not be important for you

#

but it is for me

#

I prefer spells

#

spells are nice and fun

#

attacks are boring outside of like SA and mamba

coral summit
#

been baking the world's most jank stormburst setup on elementalist with lycia bloodline, and it is way overbudget for what it does

onyx adder
coral summit
#

it uses five double influenced rares lmfao

#

shaper/elder helmet and four(4) shaper/redeemer uniques

onyx adder
#

Stormburst should be doing overtuned damage in every pob tho

#

So idk what ur doing

#

Its problems are not pob numbers lmao

cobalt blade
onyx adder
#

Ur problem is how to stand still without killing ur character, and how to clear quickly enough to not kill urself irl

frigid wedge
#

do i armourstack or int mana stack

cobalt blade
#

both

bright viper
#

Spell totems solve the first problem and make the second problem 10x worse

cobalt blade
#

Int armour stack

bright viper
#

Fair trade off imo

coral summit
#

the problem was that I found the bound by destiny mod pool for shaper items and realized it also wasn't that bad to get six shaper influenced items on it
and then it spiraled further when I realized there were also other good mods in the other parts of the modpool for it

cobalt blade
frigid wedge
#

xD

onyx adder
cobalt blade
#

basically just replacing the evasion/arm ovecap chest with shapers touch+evasion per int mastery lol

coral summit
#

and then I realized since you already use mistress of sacrifice it's surely not that bad to get a shaper influenced leash of oblation rite
but what if we corrupted it for duration

onyx adder
#

They either make ur build work and are essential

ocean field
#

okay after a bit of testing I have come to the conclusion that 3p/1s is optimal to hit with recomb

coral summit
#

and then you look back at the total pob and be like

cobalt blade
#

you end up tankier but lower armour iirc

onyx adder
#

Or theyre worse than whatever else u could put in the slot

#

Theyre never just good

coral summit
#

"this is probably four mirrors for only half a three comma digit damage and the max hit is not that great, even with cap block+ES on block"

#

"why would i spent four mirrors on this when i could build an int stacker"

cobalt blade
#

if you have like 300k max hit with block your fine

#

for 99% of content

coral summit
#

hrehehe no the max hit is like 100k ele

onyx adder
#

This is gonna have 30k max hit

#

I can feel it

coral summit

and 70k phys

cobalt blade

idk who you are flare but why that reaction

coral summit

and no easy way of getting a ton of crit reduction

so like

not t17 viable

frigid wedge
#

mana armourstacker would work better i think maybe

#

with flat per unreserved

#

idk

grizzled lily
coral summit
#

i hate that my bar for t17 maps now is either you clear shit entirely offscreen or you have to have ungodly defences to not spend ages rolling your maps

#

t17 mod pool was a mistake

#

or rather not t17 mod pool but putting all the generic loot behind it and not just uber boss tokens

gentle chasm
grizzled lily
#

they should lessen the mods and put more rewards

frigid wedge
#

you can have eh clear and eh defences

soft perch
#

I think t17s were really good for the game because it actually forces you to build well rounded characters

frigid wedge
#

its a slider of defences and clear with defence at one end and clear at the other

soft perch
#

Also u cant offscreen in t17s really because of the layouts

spice pecan
grizzled lily
#

t17 is alr profitable early tho, doing fortress day 1 is like what 1 yoke every 5 maps

onyx adder
#

Yea i dont think t17s require ungodly defenses in softcore either

frigid wedge
#

more u have of 1 the less u need of the other

Or it just sucks

onyx adder

I happily spend ssf leagues in there with like 60k maxhits and its fine even with shit mods as long as my build isnt some fake ass pobwarrior shit that forgot all its qol

T17s are way easier now with less map effect

the big t17 checks for me are ailment immunity+at least 80% crit reduction and ele max hit

onyx adder
coral summit
#

ele max hit is not that hard

soft perch
#

Ailment immunity is the most overrated thing in poe

onyx adder
#

U see ppl all the time regurgitating streamer shit about whats rippy

coral summit
#

but 80% crit reduction is surprisingly annoying as shit to get

prime hill
#

but it just forces you to go certain kind of build and actually made a lot of builds useless if you wanted to map for gains

cobalt blade
soft perch
#

U are completely fine with brine king pantheon and less shock effect pantheon

onyx adder
#

And dont understand that its rippy for what theyre doing usually

onyx adder
coral summit
#

solaris can kill every crit after the first, but the first one on a map with like +200 crit multi still fucks

soft perch
#

It is ye

onyx adder
#

Until u get real immunity

soft perch
prime hill
soft perch
#

It’s only important for delirious maps

onyx adder
#

If u rly need it early u can craft 40 chill 40 shock reduction on glove or boot

normal hedge
cobalt blade
#

why did i try pob it with fucking adorned

spice pecan
#

i feel like a lot of these points are pretty reductive especially when the majority of people would seem to disagree

onyx adder
#

And then ur freeze immune 90% chill reduc 100% shock reduc and u just get on with ur day

cobalt blade
#

why does it have stormrider boots on i am confused

soft perch
#

I think a majority of people are coping

spice pecan
#

just remove your crafted mod for x/y, just play softcore, etc

prime hill
whole bluff
#

I mainly just mind t17 mods that either invalidate something I scale hard (like defences (drowning orbs), recovery (sirus/exarch)) or require that I in turn switch the mechanic completely off or I have no chance (reflect if hit build mainly). The rest can be frustrating, but in the end I get that it's on me to make a stronger character

spice pecan
#

i don't remember the last time i actually saw my health go partially down in t17s either

frigid wedge
prime hill
#

then I don't care for myself

whole bluff
#

Gear up etc or go meta before doing the hardest content

prime hill
#

I just build t17 characters usually

frigid wedge
#

naca can u pob mfa on scion?

spice pecan
prime hill
#

when you can do t17's other than valdo maps and delve

frigid wedge
onyx adder
prime hill
#

theres nothing more else you can't do

soft perch
#

I just build good characters and they’re usually fine in t17s unless I’m running the worst mod combo ever

cobalt blade
#

am not suuuper experienced with MFA to know all of what it needs

soft perch
#

It’s rly not that deep as long as u are honest with yourself what makes a good character

spice pecan
onyx adder
#

Sometimes its unfixable but sometimes its an easy patch and sometimes that easy patch is a little bit nonstandard

normal hedge
cobalt blade
soft perch
#

Block is in such an overpowered state atm that it’s not hard to trivialise t17s with a fairly average character

cobalt blade
#

that sounds like a pita

onyx adder
#

Look i mean some mods are not fun

prime hill
spice pecan
onyx adder
#

No damage for 3 per 10, yea sure im not defending that

prime hill
#

exsang mines is pretty much all mod immune

spice pecan
soft perch
prime hill
#

easily

soft perch
#

U don’t need to be glad to take advantage of block

prime hill
#

just get a panicked flask

soft perch
#

U also don’t need to run all mods u can just read

whole bluff
#

I can fail t17s. But I play things I wish would work more often than things that actually work. I don't think t17 is that bad aside from mods that just throw big chunks of the game out the window, or require me to throw the mods effects out the window cuz I'm immune (reflect)

onyx adder
#

Drowning orbs and volatile cores, not defending those either purely for the annoyance factor although if u actually die to those u deserve to be tossed in the woodchipper

cobalt blade
#

reading bad run everything

spice pecan
#

the other thing about t17s is failing them is extremely costly

soft perch
spice pecan
#

i would much rather sell my t17s and just not have to think about them

#

tbh

normal hedge
#

idk glad is so bad

cobalt blade
spice pecan
#

i will gladly stay in t16s until ubers

cobalt blade
#

or well they used to be before nerf to mod effect

spice pecan
#

and skip t17s entirely

soft perch
#

Drowning orbs needs action speed immunity in a lot of maps

coral summit
#

glad is less bad now that bloodlines are in the game

#

but it's still bad cuz theres legit only 4 points you go there for

whole bluff
coral summit
#

other than ff bleed explosions for the dumbasses (see: me) who play bleed setups

spice pecan
#

3.26 i sat in heist/t16s until i got a build that could do ubers, then did ubers and worked backwards to t17s

cobalt blade
whole bluff
#

So chill + temp chains + drowning orb is just byebye in 3s

spice pecan
#

and i would have done that this league if i didnt burn out

cobalt blade
#

theres a few options that look okay but none of them look right

normal hedge
#

I rather play slayer with 75% block and actually have damage than playing glad bleed slop

prime hill
#

https://pobb.in/i5VQuTRmWEIr I should make some league start practice to get on bossing quick tbh

coral summit
#

its weird that glad and slayer exist side by side when literally every slayer notable except one is a 9 or 10/10

fossil mural
crisp obsidian
spice pecan
crisp obsidian
#

that was fun

normal hedge
soft perch
#

Idk if every slayer notable is a 9 or a 10 but it is very well rounded and multiplicative with itself

prime hill
#

t17's are not even a bridge between maps and ubers, that was their intention and it failed HORRIBLY

#

t17's are harder than ubers lol

cobalt blade
fossil mural
#

They need to buff that versatile node

soft perch
soft perch
#

They’re different

coral summit
cobalt blade
#

if you roll just to clear 17's are easier

fossil mural
prime hill
frigid wedge
#

maybe warden

prime hill
#

lol

crisp obsidian
normal hedge
cobalt blade
#

so all

#

with random bullshit go modd

prime hill
#

honestly lycia and heist boss is easy when you roll them to clear

#

but if you're not juicing t17s

#

why are you even playing t17s

spice pecan
prime hill
#

thats the exact point

cobalt blade
prime hill
#

just do t16/16.5 farm

coral summit
#

like, if I went and looked at all of gladiator's notables
determined survivor/more than skill are your always pick nodes
weapon master is bad
violence and measured retaliation are "please steal me" with FF on slayer
jagged technique would be good if there weren't way, way easier ways to aggravate existing bleeds but there are so it's dogshit

gritty epoch
#

U can earn by boss rushing t17 tho

whole bluff
#

T17s are way easier than ubers imo

fossil mural
fossil mural
#

Cause they dont seem to scale much

#

Lul

prime hill
#

I did delirius frag farm out of boredom at ziggurat

whole bluff
#

Uber shaper is kind of a fake uber I guess

cobalt blade
#

but im caught up between inquis deadeye occultist and assassin maybe ele

prime hill
#

it's a brainless farm but eh

frigid wedge
gritty epoch
#

Boss rushing t17, especially if u sell challenges are insane profit

spice pecan

warden makes tincs work on ranged tho, no?

I am going to click ele hit slayer and I am going to farm t17s day 2 amen

#

We love ele hit slayer

coral summit
#

meanwhile on slayer, literally everything except endless hunger is just amazing or at least very good

spice pecan
#

yeah, i'll either play glad or something and try going t17s first

crisp obsidian
#

I hope slayer is nerfed

#

to shit

spice pecan
#

or i'll just play a boss killer again

onyx adder
prime hill
#

but then I also did a lot of uber siruses

normal hedge
#

slayer is balanced

cobalt blade
#

I think id have to bring a full on mfa char to end game to understand how to rework it to scion tbh idk whats necessary for it

frigid wedge
onyx adder
#

That thing has like 50hp

crisp obsidian
#

for your build

prime hill
#

which was the best margin uber for most of the keepers

coral summit
#

slayer is basically the elementalist of bottom side tree

#

change my mind

cobalt blade
#

and its not a thing you can rely on pob numbers for

frigid wedge
#

honestly duelist is the most balanced class in the game rn

#

imo

coral summit
#

it's just generically really good at almost everything.

spice pecan
cobalt blade
#

technically its scion since all her balance is one ascend

uneven gust
#

nerf dlayer mean buffed trickster lol

cobalt blade
#

Cant have variance :D

soft perch
#

Well slayer is specifically bis for ehit cuz impact is just cracked lul

fossil mural

If youre good at shaper/ushaper, I could see ushaper being something you'd do before any t17 except possibly fortress (build dependant)

onyx adder

She is a pure skill check

frigid wedge
#

i should find out how to leaguestart valdo glad

soft perch
#

And Wdym u cant

whole bluff
soft perch
#

Servant of arakaali couldn’t rly get the aoe for it

#

U need like 100% inc aoe or more for penance afaik

frigid wedge
#

me with 300

soft perch
#

Which requires carcass jack

cobalt blade
soft perch
#

Which sucks

cobalt blade
#

and regular even more so on scuffed rf lmao

crisp obsidian
#

than cortex to uber cortex changes

prime hill
#

uber is easily doable on league start

cobalt blade
#

yup

spice pecan
#

yeah, uber maven is no problem

normal hedge
#

ele hit nerfs pls

cobalt blade
#

pure skill check dont be bad at memory game

normal hedge
#

Don't wanna play melee again

spice pecan
#

though it is easy to get overwhelmed at the 5 laser memory game

fossil mural
prime hill
#

its fine

spice pecan
#

yeah

soft perch
#

And yea no grafts but there’s probs some new borrowed power system

opal ingot
#

do yall circle maven's "stand still" lasers, or just move out of the laser's way by going horizontally

leaden quiver
#

i pob melee hit more and it keeps looking better and better

prime hill
#

I just blink out

leaden quiver
#

10000 ways to scale

cobalt blade
#

i stand still and blink behind the beam

leaden quiver
#

all multiplicative

leaden quiver

explosive concoction sounds good too but thats for a later build

opal ingot

thanks for the responses

leaden quiver
spice pecan

#

I tend to bob ross arena, run into beams, not be able to see entire screen cuz I fucked the fight up. And then I lose control and my mistakes due to lost control chip away at my portals as I struggle to get in dmg with whatever weird thing I'm playing

soft perch
#

Deathbeam did not play phrecia

brazen vector
#

People said im.stupid for league starting phrecia with chain of command and now im.closing in on 100m dps GLAAAAAAH

opal ingot
#

and says no to ur regen

cobalt blade
#

one forward one backwards from the sky

soft perch
#

So that’s still correct

spice pecan
#

on uber i kinda weave out of the one coming in, and into the one going away

#

if that makes sense

fossil mural
spice pecan
#

but depends on the build, blinking out is fine too

opal ingot
#

is'nt it the same for uber and normal maven?

cobalt blade
#

no

#

normal doesnt disable regen

opal ingot
#

huhhh

#

oh

spice pecan
#

the uber one applies the no regen

cobalt blade
#

so you can just stand in it

opal ingot
#

but in terms of attack? still the same, right?

cobalt blade
#

(or well disable recovery entirely)

#

yea

soft perch
cobalt blade
#

more damage on uber ofc

opal ingot
#

ok tyty

spice pecan
#

it's the same animation and stuff, just more dmg and no regen on uber yeah

onyx adder
karmic gust
soft perch
#

U need enough aoe so that ur ele hit is 3.5 radius

fossil mural
whole bluff
#

I guess if I nailed 90% of memory games rather than 70%, I would struggle less with maven/umaven

fossil mural
#

On budget I had 3.8

karmic gust
#

getting enough aoe is easy, pob doesnt show correct ele hit aoe

soft perch
#

I mean that’s like a huge amount of aoe where is it coming from

#

I know it doesn’t

spice pecan
soft perch
#

It’s 1.4*1.8

whole bluff
#

Especially if I could nail memory games no matter where I am in arena

prime hill
#

all my uber maven gambas paid off since leagues

cobalt blade
karmic gust
#

you get 25% from jewel and then just tree and its enough

prime hill
#

I fail like 1 out of 100 memory games now

spice pecan
#

if i'm not on the left side during memory game i'm straight fucked

#

tbh

#

but i always make sure to get over there

fossil mural
#

I was def shotgunning reliably with it

cobalt blade
#

oh also remember that it can never go from right>left

soft perch
#

Ele hits base aoe is 2.5 with an ailment

leaden quiver
#

yeah

#

its 80% more radius

#

not more area

opal ingot
#

someone make a unity game for maven practice

karmic gust
#

this is slayer for example, ac can get same aoe

fossil mural
#

Still didnt like the build

#

Too much flashing

cobalt blade
prime hill
#

smol funni question

soft perch
#

But I also think penance mark is quite gimmicky and ehit works completely fine without the ring

karmic gust
#

becaue instead of aoe per endu you get the jewel

leaden quiver
#

brinkmanship my beloved

fossil mural
#

Like actual eye cancer

prime hill
#

would you guys rather ggg to nerf stacker builds or buff high end non stacker builds

karmic gust
#

and thats literally no investment just brinkmanship pulverise and blood and sand

normal hedge
karmic gust
#

and its 4 radius

#

and done

leaden quiver
#

especially int

soft perch
#

I don’t like blood and sand

cobalt blade
#

but the stacker is spark stacking

fossil mural
whole bluff
soft perch
#

Cuz it turns off flesh and stone

prime hill
#

with stacker I mean every kind of stacker

soft perch
#

Unless ur actively swapping

prime hill
#

charges etc aswell

leaden quiver
fossil mural
#

Ac has 2 targets and a repeat at the previous location

karmic gust
#

its 17% more aoe and 17% more area damage

leaden quiver
#

if youre using skitters

cobalt blade
prime hill
#

int is even a big outlier for stackers tbh

karmic gust
#

its op

cobalt blade
#

but make sure to nerf the dex stackers

prime hill
#

other than valdo armour stacker

karmic gust
#

why would you swap you just stay in sand stance forever

leaden quiver
#

armour stacker is fine because its super high floor

soft perch
#

Ok true im being stupid

prime hill
leaden quiver
soft perch
#

Penance mark is still gimmicky tho

prime hill
#

my favorite 1 div starter

cobalt blade
soft perch
#

And slayer does a lot better on nothing

cobalt blade
#

and only because of them

karmic gust
#

well you just use penance for single target

#

you are still investing into makin gyour clear way better than regular ele hit does

prime hill
#

but honestly

karmic gust
#

because it also scales your damage

leaden quiver
karmic gust
#

so its just better in every way

soft perch
#

Ye but u have to weapon swap to turn off corrupting fever

karmic gust
#

imo

leaden quiver
#

or just regular penance mark

prime hill
#

I just prefer ggg to buff high end of non stacker builds

#

¯_(ツ)_/¯

karmic gust
#

and its not close

soft perch
fossil mural
karmic gust
#

you hve to do it once per fight

wait what fucking corrupting fever

im lost asf

crisp obsidian
prime hill
crisp obsidian

like it's so good

#

the elehit penance mark thing

#

I played it

leaden quiver
#

why are you using corrupting fever

prime hill
#

im just hating the fact that my end game chase build is all stackers

#

even in keepers it was power/herald stacker

soft perch
#

Cuz then u kill everything

cobalt blade
#

ye its why as much as i hope they don't they'll prolly nerf stackers when buffing skills and stackers will still be your chase

leaden quiver

ah

crisp obsidian

for clear

got it

fossil mural

yeah just realised

or non-critting precise

#

You are using the secrets

karmic gust

but yea on AC its worse on low budget than slayer but it has way higher potential thats why i would play it

fossil mural

Or whats it called

leaden quiver
#

the interrogation yeah

#

okay thats cooked

prime hill
#

1 and half mirrors

cobalt blade
#

Not too expensive

fossil mural
#

Actually not true, I dislike having to get regen block

opal ingot
cobalt blade
#

fairly reasonable to farm

fossil mural
#

Thats actually annoying

prime hill
#

I can get there with 200-300d of stacker build

fossil mural
#

But its not ac problem

#

Its penance mark problem

prime hill
leaden quiver
#

@crisp obsidian ew the gem swap out

prime hill
#

which was like 5ish mirrors

leaden quiver
#

puked in my mouth

cobalt blade
#

stacker gear is cheap enough with tree existing rn your just buying necessary unique or w/e for your flat damage scaling and your golden

fossil mural
crisp obsidian
leaden quiver
#

better make a wep swap

leaden quiver
crisp obsidian
#

I had like auras in shield or something xdd

prime hill

only content that was straight up annoying was

leaden quiver
#

to kill the boss iirc?

crisp obsidian
leaden quiver
#

or smth

fossil mural
#

Probably doesnt have slots

#

Or something

#

To put it on wep

crisp obsidian
#

ah cause

prime hill
#

max deli beyond harbinger t17's with FUCKING WORLD SHATTERERS with cast/attack speed

crisp obsidian
#

I had automation - blood rage in my

prime hill
#

I HATE THOSE GOATS

crisp obsidian
#

weapon or shield

prime hill
#

JUMP ON ME MORE

crisp obsidian
#

so I didn't want to keep turning automation on again

#

so I just took cf off when I needed to xdd

prime hill

but that was just the issue with how pbod build defences worked

cobalt blade

this just sounds like a good time

Why cant you just turn cf off, ggg kek

prime hill

even without svalinn

pathetic max physical hit

crisp obsidian

Fuck svalinn bad shield

yeah I went for the mirrored stacker shield instead

life/es on block so much better if you have semi decent max hit kek

legit just getting 1 shot by the slams

im sure I overlooked some stuff on that build tho

#

yeah no configs or anything at all cuz too lazy to dig it through 200 pobs I have

cobalt blade

I am judging you for that es flask leech suffix when you could spend 1 point on the tree

prime hill
#

but that was

#

so much tankiness

#

added by 1 point

cobalt blade

but you have zealots oath

#

That flask suffix is 6% regen

Or well 5.5%
