[fair tiger]

What's CoF?

[static falcon]

i just started my first mage character and i wanted to ask

does anyone else have issue with flame rush not traveling properly and just exploding right as it begins?

[wild mural]

Are you holding the button down?

[static falcon]

yea

randomly even when holding down it just starts and explodes right as it begins

[fair tiger]

so I will say that I've noticed it stopping immediately when on wooden plank surfaces like inside buildings

or on the reign of dragons boss you just can't really use it

[hollow arrow]

I saw that issue with shield rush on my sentinel when i played him against the dragon boss

[static falcon]

jeez thats tough

[brittle torrent]

Anyone know if there's a volcanic orb focused build around for mage?

[hollow arrow]

just randomly stops out of nowhere

[static falcon]

the build im following needs it on the hotbar so thats really bad if im out a traversal option

[fair tiger]

yup same issue on werebear run

[idle terrace]

which is best for SS and MS

Chrono statis or Humming Bee?

[static falcon]

any confirmation from devs about getting movement skills fixed?

[static falcon]

so its a weird obejct collision recognition issue?

[fair tiger]

yeah I think that's a good way to put it

[static falcon]

eesh thats tough

[hollow arrow]

I know lunge wasn't affected by it

so it's ground based traversal skills

teleport also is fine but that one is a blink lol

[west star]

Mine is more fireball centric but my volcanic orb is getting juicy. 34k volcanic orb + magma starter in the flame rush tree has been really nice. But my fireball is my main juice I basically flame rush in, drop a volcanic orb, and then anything not dead gets fire ball. Bossing is fireball with volcanic orb/flamerush/flame wars fillers. Started doing monos around 30 and 68 rn. I’m also unease mastery but so far 9 points in runemaster and the rest in sorc/mage

Idk if it’s good but it’s been fun

[hexed venture]

is there a build that uses the 2h spear that makes volcanic orb void? That unique sounds so cool but i can also see it doing just nothing lol

[brittle torrent]

Freaking awesome dude. I'm gonna try it out and see how it goes!

[west star]

I’ll make a lastepochtools build tomorrow for what I did. I got some nice lp and weaver items but pretty sure everything is pretty farmable.

what do you think about my end game build?

[west star]

I’m still getting to empowered monos on the toon probably start farming corruption this weekend

[bronze shore]

what the f is that

+4 FC +4 BH? T4 Twisted heart?????

wtf

aint no way that real

[winter crow]

yeah he prob just made it in the website

[bronze shore]

ye

there no way some got a lp 4 twisted heart

[winter crow]

4lp red ring doesnt exists

[neon lynx]

wdym yall dont lp4 hearts?

thought everyone had em

[winter crow]

I dont think noone will ever get 4lp red ring

[bronze shore]

man is on his copium lmao

[hollow arrow]

i know there's a lp2 red ring so far

[bronze shore]

lp4 unstable core too

what is man cooking

[winter crow]

also how tf does he have sealed t7 affix

and 4 t7s on top

lol

[coral lion]

its a goal

[winter crow]

thats not possible xd

[bronze shore]

a goal lmao

[winter crow]

4lp red ring is like 0.000000000000001% chance

[bronze shore]

man probably not even lv50 yet

[coral lion]

76

[bronze shore]

wow 76

[neon lynx]

ur just jealous

[bronze shore]

fr

i want that lp4 twisted hear too

[coral lion]

its basically an end game build like the goal, its not like I am getting it tomorrow like buying on wallmart

[bronze shore]

probably like 20b

[bronze shore]

and we say is unrealistic

[coral lion]

don't have to be an 🫏 about it

[onyx glen]

Why is +3 frost claw relic so expensive 😭

[rocky anvil]

Maybe when MG and CoF get additional ranks in future cycles, there's a reasonable chance to get 3 T7 affixes on your gear once every week in corruption 2000-3000

[onyx glen]

Trying to figure out which points to sacrifice

[bronze shore]

use +2 frost claw with omnis

[unborn hamlet]

Nah, it's actually a number so low even a calculator can't show it properly, and I'm not joking

[bronze shore]

you know the actualy most unrealistc thing on the build is lp 4 jurla ring

which in my knowlaged we cant get

[rocky anvil]

EHG did say they wanted to make set items more exciting first and had some good plans for that, so I think major additions/changes to MG and CoF will have to wait half a year

[bronze shore]

i never saw a lp2+ jurla gear

[hexed venture]

if sets just had LP some of them would be interesting

[unborn hamlet]

i think I saw a 3LP helmet

[bronze shore]

ye i actually saw a lp3 unity before too

lp4 never

in my knowlaged if you ever got any good lp4 gear like fundemantal criter or a 4 lp ladle

then i would just sell it

since there no way you can get a BiS to slam those lp4

[unborn hamlet]

I have 2 4LP laddles

But CoF moment

[bronze shore]

💀

[unborn hamlet]

Yeah

And my ass can't even get 3 LP frozen ire

RNGesus making fun of me

[coral lion]

The game is pretty young, I'm sure they'll eventually lower the chances via feedback

look at D4 and their uber uniques

[bronze shore]

lp4 twisted heart is very very very very very very very rare

people are malding even on lp0 twisted heart

[hollow arrow]

i was lucky to grab one on my sentinel for when i made my mage

tho i'll have to farm for 1lp in future lmao

[bronze shore]

unity is a bit buggy

i heard tri ele work very weird for some reason

[coral lion]

the game is more tri ele friendly than fire/cold

[gleaming quest]

buggy ? i didn't notice that

[bronze shore]

some people have saird tri ele work weridly

however the build you use use nova as a way to use spark charge

so all the dmg nova dealt is actually spark charge and not the nova it self

so buffing nova dmg is usless xd

[gleaming quest]

i can clear c500 without enigma so it's not that bad

[bronze shore]

ye this build easily kill 500

you might have problem around 1k

also

that a pretty low crit rate

only 28%

[gleaming quest]

i know but the sacrifice isn't worth it rn

i don't have good prismatic and i don't need more damage

[bronze shore]

all g

[hollow arrow]

first i've had a ring with t7 exalt and it's the only stat on there lmao

[mellow belfry]

anyone got a lnk to a good lightning frost claw RM build? im strugglng with mana mgmt on frost claw / nova build rn, until i can get +3 frostclaw on my twisted hearts ;o

[bronze shore]

then dont use nova lol

[gleaming quest]

you can take mana regen in flame ward tree

[bronze shore]

too much point wasted for it

and it only activate for 3s

[gleaming quest]

not really

with high cdr it's ok

i used it until i got my unstable core

[mellow belfry]

geniu

genius* but imagnie there might be some other skill/gear optimizations for lightning frostclaw over the nova version

hence curious to see a build

[bronze shore]

lightning blast

dragon claw

[gleaming quest]

nova shouldn't cost mana

[mellow belfry]

oh yeah wait you are right lmao its mana cost is 0 :OOOOOO

[bronze shore]

as it should

your problem is you anoit to nova with no enough point for mana reduction

this build need +3 frost claw

[gleaming quest]

yeah it's kinda hard without the +3

[bronze shore]

you shouldnt even anoit to nova in the first place

[mellow belfry]

googles the word 'anoit'

so until i have +3 frostclaw on my twisted hearts what would you recommend instead

[lyric mango]

Guys, is it better to boost Attunement affix instead of Intelligence, since it gives Intelligence + something else too?

[bronze shore]

dunno why dont your search in google

[mellow belfry]

nova just looks so cool mayne

i have been on google and youtube and now im askng here lol

[gleaming quest]

lightning blast spark charge is ok (but not insane vs boss)

[hollow arrow]

boots of the mountain really help for bosses, just stand there and facetank everything while you kill them

i jsut need more crit/crit multiplier so i can get my dmg up some more

[bronze shore]

what corruption?

[hollow arrow]

im at lower corruption of 300 right now

i keep bouncing between characters so nobody is really geared up lmao

[karmic flame]

anyone that can explain why scaling damage over time is good for frost claw? can't see how it scales the damage as it's not tagged answered

[sacred nebula]

https://www.lastepochtools.com/profile/baxterpapa/character/Voidshyet
i try to yeah, but its far from being opti

[hexed venture]

ill check it out thx

does the 100% reduced cost of volcanic orb node make it cost 0 even after other increases?

[sacred nebula]

no ,the skill cost 60 mana atm but does decent dmg, have to spam mana strike for mana regen

[hexed venture]

ah fair enough

thanks for the link, ill keep readin through and take some ideas (if not all) :D

[steel oak]

for tri-elemental nova build, does the line "lightning critical strike multiplier" only affect the lightning part, or the skill itself?

[old sable]

I'm sure I'm doing many things wrong with this build because I cant kill monolith bosses by myself and die very quickly

what should I change https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/BM6Mg5wo

I'm on the verge of abondoning this char because of lacking power

[bronze shore]

what the general idea behind the build?

use glacier as main dps?

[old sable]

yes and to freeze/slow down

I'm having about 1500 ward generally while fighting

[bronze shore]

homecook build is a bit hard to fix but i suggest that you dont invest to the mana regen on the flame ward and find more good utility node on glacier

your build to towardly to defense

and some defense node is not that worth it to invest in

[old sable]

I see

[bronze shore]

for example your ice barrage also to focus on freeze rate and seems dont to sync with your build

and blackhole seems to serve no purpose in your build other than pull

the defense in your build burst defense

[eager silo]

how to transistion from frostclaw leveling build to frostclaw endgame build?

[bronze shore]

so it will only allow you to tank large amount of dmg in short amount of time

[bronze shore]

you know when you ask that question you should also post a build in the planner right?

[eager silo]

from https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/runemaster-leveling-guide to say https://maxroll.gg/last-epoch/build-guides/frost-claw-runemaster-guide

[bronze shore]

then just respec

that it

[old sable]

main reason was that I was dying too quickly hence went into more defensive build but I can't damage enough now, cant find the balance by myself

thanks for the tips

[bronze shore]

also your passive should be fix too

[old sable]

I'll try to see what I can do, due to not being able to kill bosses I cant even finish dungeons

[bronze shore]

over 20 point in base is bad

you only need 20 point in base mastery to be able to put point special mastery

[valid crane]

which is better, the elemental nova build or plasma orb?

[bronze shore]

plasma orb

[bronze shore]

there some good node that u seems dont put point in like arch mage

it give flat spell dmg and 3x when you over 300 mana

that 15 flat spell dmg

[wild rose]

Hey, is it possible to post a Screenshot of an item here? i need some advice

[bronze shore]

go to item show case lol

[wild rose]

will do, thanks ^.^

[grave iris]

anybody have a rune master loot filter they been using in monolith they can shared? please @me

[unborn hamlet]

i mean that kind of depends differing from build to build

generally speaking the people who play CoF just filter for their very specific stuff

[rapid axle]

soon 100 and never saw one exalted relic with Frost Claw so far

is this bugged or its suppose to be way rarer than frost wall? i honestly dont get it

[unborn hamlet]

its almost impossible to drop it dw about it

i played enough to have 4 lvl 100 chars and i only dropped T6 once

T6 frost once and T6 flame ward once

[rapid axle]

kind of bugged then

[nova girder]

guys is the plasma orb runemaster guide from maxroll good? or should i seek knowledge from somewhere else

[split schooner]

Snap and i think empyrian got an great video on YouTube

[nova girder]

both are multiplayer andies though

[safe grail]

lol lads. 18% cast speed for aegis/+3 spell lightning sold for 35m

[split schooner]

Sadly yeah

[balmy abyss]

trying to get foot of the mountain appraently 35% to drop in tier 3, getting face of the mountain with 12% chance over and over -.-

is it maybe low key better to farm on lower tier so amount of boss uniques is smaller?

[upbeat hollow]

maybe it's been asked before but... do spark charges consume the spell amount of the Acuity node on Arcane Ascendance?

[safe grail]

spark charges are not considered spell casts

so probably not.

[upbeat hollow]

they have the spell tag, so you say it's about direct casts?

[safe grail]

it could be worded terribly that direction, yes.

best idea is to test it on the dummy

i'd try and use something like a specc'd mana strike to apply spark charges to see

if it eats AA up then you know

[upbeat hollow]

i mean i think you're right as it says 'you can cast 4 spells, not trigger/proc 4 skills'

[safe grail]

yeah

like i said terribly worded

but also what i meant

spark charges aren't a directly castable spell anyway

they are a debuff

[upbeat hollow]

it's always procced y

[safe grail]

that causes dmg after x time or are procced by x event

yeah

[nova girder]

naa you know screw this season, like the gold dupers, bots and everything else involving RMT has made it cancerous to play trade

starting fresh as CoF

[safe grail]

lol

I get your sentiment but, CoF is just painful to play as right now. thankfully the stash tab prices are reduced now

so that's one less painful piece

[upbeat hollow]

so for spark charge builds, better to go for a flat damage build (noncrit) stacking lightning + spell damage, or going for a crit build stacking crit + multi?

[safe grail]

b4 i answer lemme ask this; what are your main spells you will use?

[upbeat hollow]

mana strike, enchant weapon, teleport and ascendance

lots of attack speed y

[safe grail]

okay so then you are likely going to go Dragorath's claw + enigma

which drag's claw gives you +3-4 flat crit

so you have the opportunity to build a bit of crit in your setup

[upbeat hollow]

or use singularity idol and take humming bee for the attack speed

[safe grail]

do not use that idol

under any circumstances lol

[upbeat hollow]

i mean dot builds can use it since dots can't crit

[safe grail]

dot builds cannot use it

cause dots don't hit

[upbeat hollow]

if it's not a hit it's not a crit

[safe grail]

it's not very useful for any build really. the tradeoff is too massive.

[unborn hamlet]

dots can crit tho even tho they shouldn't be able to

[upbeat hollow]

on the planner it gives flat 14% more damage, even on dots.

[safe grail]

lmao oh

that's news to me

[unborn hamlet]

Maybe it differs from dot type to dot type

But frostbite does crit

Probably a bug, but it does happen, see it happen fairly often on boss fights

[upbeat hollow]

ye that's a bug, normally if it's not actually hitting, it's not able to crit.

[unborn hamlet]

Already doing low DMG, let me have something,

Especially since they fixed the 2hand bug

[upbeat hollow]

just stack the element of the dot instead of crit/multi

[unborn hamlet]

I don't stack any crit

Only have the flat one

[wraith vector]

what's the lowest APM mage?

[unborn hamlet]

Elemental DMG over time, and freeze rate,

[bronze shore]

probably frost claw

[upbeat hollow]

i think freeze rate might also only apply on hits?

[safe grail]

def frost claw proccing nova.

[bronze shore]

just press frost claw and the occasional traversal skill

[wraith vector]

still a good enough build for high level corruption?

[bronze shore]

i hear people can push it to 2k

[upbeat hollow]

it's mana hungry through

[bronze shore]

is not

[stiff crown]

Doesn’t that build need cfc evo at higher corruption?

[wraith vector]

cfc evo?

[bronze shore]

any build use cfc lol

[stiff crown]

Cold fire cold

[bronze shore]

you be trolling if you dont use cfc

[wraith vector]

I don't have a cold spell currently

[stiff crown]

That’s my point. It’s more than just pressing down frost claw and transverse

[wraith vector]

I'm 78 Hydrahedron but it's kind of annoying

[bronze shore]

keep getting gear for your hydra

everybuild need investment to be strong

[wraith vector]

just seems drastically weaker and harder to play than my falconer that's doing 452 corruption with 1 button screen clears lol

[bronze shore]

hydra did get nerf recently as far as i know

so it might be a bit weaker

i have failed 5 2lp engima slam

or 7

i dont remember

😭

each slam is 2m

i lost 14m for this

[robust fox]

Whats the meta build for mage rn?

[stiff crown]

Rip. I made this one yesterday. https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1210704618057764874/1217579440385556520/image.png?ex=66048a38&is=65f21538&hm=4e25143d90ddb0f5af17d049b2d91da9ba1dceac4fda7c7ec975b587a4314219&

[safe grail]

holy balls lol

[bronze shore]

AINT NO WAY

FFF

just give me my cast speed crit multi

😭

[stiff crown]

I also slammed T7 Int and T5 HP on my Julra after yesterday’s discussion

Wanted crit but HP ain’t bad

[bronze shore]

wait Jurla have +2lp?

i thought it a myth

[steep summit]

Hello. Question! Would elemental damage over time buff help Brand of Deception? I have a Knowledge if an erased mage with 201% elemental dot.

[surreal stag]

Anyone tried the Sorc set that converts Meteor to lightning? Is the Int scalling worth?

[split schooner]

How is frost claw nova compared to plasma orb?

[safe grail]

both require a decently high investment in terms of gear. As for rotation, plasma orb can mess up the rotation very easily since you are relying on Invocating correctly.

[split schooner]

I know i play right now an plasma orb build i did mean defensive/dmg wise

[safe grail]

o

uh

about comparable if you're playing reowyn's/dodge orb

i'd say claw nova generates a lot more ward

[bronze shore]

plasma orb will not put you to sleep

since you need to rotate invo

while frost claw it just hold down FC

[split schooner]

Hm ok somehow i like the challenge from plasma orb right now but frost claw looks nice to🤣

[stuck fable]

frost claw... xuehuapiaopiao

[stuck fable]

what about claw lb(cold)?

[bronze shore]

i faild another slam 😭

9 engima in

[stuck fable]

rngesus taketh and giveth

[bronze shore]

tbf i did first try +3 frost claw on 1 Lp twisted

i might use all my luck there

[indigo isle]

Does it make sense that I'm still using yellow swords at level 85 doing empowered monoliths?

I just can't find better exalts

Context: Shattering strike spellblade in dire need of crit rolls

[bronze shore]

MG

[near river]

I have the static obr sorc from maxrollgg, all items t20+ but it leaves fire and light res at 40-50% yet the guide says capping all res is the priority. Aside from just changing their build completely any ideas what I could be missing here?

[bronze shore]

all res is not that important

[severe juniper]

On the runemaster builds which helm are you guys running? I saw one using the unique that does like spark charges or whatever, but how does it release the charges if none of the skills I’m using (also from the same build guide) use 40 mana to trigger it?

[bronze shore]

when ur at the point having over 20k ward then all capped res is usless

[bronze shore]

we only use it for +4 crit base

[safe grail]

lmao yo bigdaddy's Frostbite spellblade build has more ward retention than most RMs

[severe juniper]

Oh ok. Is that significant? Is it because it’s an actual +4% and not like you see on other items that have much higher values?

[onyx glen]

Yeah it’s additional crit so it’s added to the base

[bronze shore]

+4 is massive

5 base x400% crit chance = 20

9 base x 400% crit chance is 36

for 5% to get 36 it need nearly 700%

[vale tartan]

its the same dealio why Flat Spell damage added is such a huge thing

You see : oh .. its just +10 spell damage but that 10 is added to the base that might be like 20 and suddenly its straight up 50% more

[severe juniper]

Thank you.

[steel ridge]

I got really lucky. 2lp enigma. Slammed attack speed and crit multi into it

[rough mountain]

Hmm shouldn't there be more specific mage channels ? Or are they so much alike that it's not needed?

[safe grail]

they overlap

for the most part

and quite a few folks in here have played all 3 masteries

[rough mountain]

that's true

i've barely played one 😉

but i wanna go to where all the theory crafters are. haha. i just like seeing numbers. and excel sheets

[bronze shore]

im inside your wall

[steel ridge]

I don’t understand the expression please don’t kill me

[safe grail]

he's comin to steal

ur 2 LP nigma

[bronze shore]

this is the 10th engima now

im down 20m

pls god just give me my cast speed crit multi

[steel ridge]

I’m a COF chad. Raw faith will lead me

I just got 1lp twisted heart and +4 frost claw relic.

But it’s not gonna slam that. It will take the poison res or something lol I just know it

[bronze shore]

I FAILED

AGAIN

10th nigma

about to roll mage which build would you guys recomend not for pushging i will go max 350 coruption just the one you enjoyed

We all hype on frost claw over here?

[rocky gale]

Good Morning all - I am looking for some pointers on why i am not hitting as hard as i think i should be with my Plasma Orb build. I know my gear is not that great but i think it is good enough to be hitting for 10k+ with the static from the orbs but i am only seeing around 3k-7k ticks.

[bronze shore]

probably because of your gear

i think

after all stronger gear = stronger dmg

[rocky gale]

Okay, but what stats from my gear are missing? When i compare myself to other build planners it looks some what similar for crit multi/crit/spell damage but they just have like 25+ more dex and int so i am just unsure what the issue is

[bronze shore]

ye

that 25+ more dex and int is the issue

also doesnt plasma orb build run the snowdrif boots or something?

[grave iris]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A2vcF17FvhE&t=725s try looking at this

[bronze shore]

so they can stack like a bunch of dex

[grave iris]

the maxwell guide is outdated btw @rocky gale

[rocky gale]

is that the maxroll guide? that is what i have been using

[grave iris]

that video is the meta super high level high cap plasma orb build overview

[tough mist]

anyone else find frostclaw runemaster takes forever to kill a boss on high corruption

[grave iris]

i am using it rn

[bronze shore]

show your build

[rocky gale]

I am wondering if missing snowdrift is that huge

[bronze shore]

yes

[tough mist]

just following this build https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/oN2vJ3Ro

[tough mist]

it 1 shots mobs in monos, but when it comes to bosses, the single target dmg is pretty bad

[bronze shore]

what corruption again?

[dusty skiff]

that link doesnt tell us what you're running tho

[bronze shore]

also this build is actually your character right?

[dusty skiff]

unless that is your actual gear, then you should be smoking bosses upto about 1500

[bronze shore]

there no way you dont deal dmg with that gear

[rocky gale]

Why stack dodge in the idols?

[weary steppe]

Nope its not. This is a youtubers build i recognize it ^^

[bronze shore]

is this your actual gear or the build gear?

[tough mist]

maybe it's cause i m coming from a wraithlord nec and explosive ballista falconer

[grave iris]

cause of reowyn

[tough mist]

i m using the exact same gear as the build including 4LP ladle

[bronze shore]

you sure?

[dusty skiff]

same LP encodes as well?

[bronze shore]

aint now way

[tough mist]

most useless helper lo

[dusty skiff]

what corruption are you in?

[bronze shore]

the exact stats?

[tough mist]

why even bother answering

[bronze shore]

+3 claw?

[tough mist]

900 corruption

[grave iris]

bro is a lil slow it okay @tough mist

[safe grail]

Imma be real here, I think it's about time we either denote that Maxroll is not recommended for Endgame builds in the pin or we remove it entirely.

[rocky gale]

Is Julra's Starial okay to sub out for the Red Ring since they are so rare on plasma orb?

[tough mist]

i have yet to see a video of a frostclaw build melting bosses on high corruption tbh (at least compared to some of the other classes out there)

[bronze shore]

wait why there LB on the skill bar?

[dusty skiff]

it should be killing them pretty fast. Are you dashing thru the bosses from time to time to put a brand on them?

[bronze shore]

you use FFL?

[safe grail]

orb plays FLF

to proc it

[grave iris]

i would get any ring with int and dex and res instead if u can

if you want a loot filter , i can dm you one btw

[weary steppe]

Thats a youtubers planner. He put that by mistake he says on the video. He uses cfc. I assume Jenna does the same.

[tough mist]

what's cfc? i use snap freeze like the guy does in the video too

[safe grail]

@chilly wave is this something that is even possible? I feel like a good chunk of us sit here every day just kind of mentioning how Maxroll guides are never updated/out-of-date and having to guide people further on how to properly build etc.

[safe grail]

Cold fire cold

it means you hit a cold spell, a fire spell, a cold spell to get the CFC runes

[weary steppe]

Yup i know. It means cold-fire-cold for invo

[safe grail]

then hit runic invocation for the defensive invocation

[bronze shore]

i heard people push 2k easily with this

[safe grail]

w/ frostclaw?

[bronze shore]

so i dont think the weak boss dmg is true

of course is not going to be as strong as busted wraithlord

[tough mist]

oh i did not know that's how that skill works lol, just made the character 2 days ago and didnt read a guide 😅

[bronze shore]

but it still super strong

[tough mist]

so i have to hit with snap freeze > flame rush > snap freeze to get cfc? cause my frostclaw is lightning

[bronze shore]

[safe grail]

ah. explains a bit.

Runic invocation will gain runes based on 1 of 2 factors:

1. You have immutable order specced which makes it so no matter what you cast, you gain runes based on elements of skills on your cast bar from left to right, the first 3 that have elements
2. You cast spells in order

[bronze shore]

😭

[safe grail]

i can tell you without looking that the build you're playing

has immutable order

so you have to order your skills Cold fire Cold on your cast bar

[weary steppe]

Nope you dont have to. Your Runic Invo has a passive that only your skill line up matters, elementally. Hence Cold Fire Cold. From there on no matter what you press you gonna get them in that order.

[dusty skiff]

yeah, you pretty much lean on frost claw

[tough mist]

so on my skill bar i need frost claw > flame ward > snap freeze from left to right?

[safe grail]

no

frost claw

is converted to lightning

so it will give the wrong rune

[bronze shore]

basicly you go Flame rush Ward any cold skill

[safe grail]

you need to have flame rush/lightning blast, flame ward, flame rush/lightning blast in that order in the first 3 slots

[bronze shore]

on the order left to right

[tough mist]

ah

[safe grail]

build they are playing uses non-coverted flame ward w/ converted LB

[bronze shore]

nah the planner make a mistake

[weary steppe]

Build doesnt have anything on LB

[safe grail]

yes it does

rune of winter

[bronze shore]

LB is not specilize in

[safe grail]

passive in mage

converts it to cold

[weary steppe]

Oh he has that

[safe grail]

guys i dont need to look at the planner cus ik the build lol

[weary steppe]

Thats a waste wtf

[bronze shore]

wait wut

[weary steppe]

And i know the literal video of the planner pal

[rapid axle]

wasted one point

xdd

[safe grail]

ya bet. so we are on the same page here

[bronze shore]

xd

[weary steppe]

Dude doesnt even use LB on his video

[barren pawn]

Here comes the battle of epeens....

[tough mist]

alright ill try flame rush > ward > snap freeze that should do the trick right?

[safe grail]

yeah which is odd

[weary steppe]

He uses snap freeze

[safe grail]

i wonder

wasnt that the same guy who made the uh

[weary steppe]

On video he has snap-ward-rush

[safe grail]

frost claw/LB build?

[bronze shore]

am i obligated to ask do he have a +3 Frost Claw Twisted Heart?

[safe grail]

where he uses LB for buffs or w/e

wondering if we he was playing around in the wrong planner or some ish

[bronze shore]

because im pretty sure im kinda lost fate to every single person following this build

[weary steppe]

Yeah maybe

[safe grail]

FC in the nova build kinda hurts the mana pool

so eventually, you just wanna have a +3/4 Twisted heart for the mana efficiency node

[bronze shore]

not if u have +3 FC

😭

[weary steppe]

Cause as i said he was using snap-ward-rush on the video so its literally a waste of passive to make LB cold lmao

[bronze shore]

+3 FC with 2 mana idol should bring the mana down to a comfortable 24 mana cost

[weary steppe]

Some peeps shouldnt make build videos

😭

[safe grail]

hard agree lol

[bronze shore]

which FC can infinately sustain

in the cirumcumstan mana did drop

you can spam healing potion to get mana back

because of ladle passive

[split schooner]

Yeah many build videos are bad explained

[bronze shore]

there are many varient too i use
Cold Ward - Flame rush + Cold static orb

maximum defense

[weary steppe]

I know there are but thats not the topic here

[bronze shore]

the cold LB maybe it a special preference xd

[weary steppe]

He doesnt even use it

On the video

[bronze shore]

lmao

[weary steppe]

He has snap-ward-rush-fc-invo

But specced in to cold lb lmao

[bronze shore]

hey this make me remember the guy that stack HP regen to use sanguine runestones

HP regen > Ward

[weary steppe]

I would love my hp to regen fast when i get 1 shotted in the face 😂

[bronze shore]

but the after all of the HP regen he stack it only came out like 700 ward per sec
which is litreally exsang last step with experimental glove

[simple stump]

hey all, I've put my first 20ish hours into this game on forge guard and it feels pretty underwhelming, to say the least. How does the mage feel? I do like the concept of self-cast spellslinging

[bronze shore]

😭

forge guard

your poor soul

[weary steppe]

I belive forge guard is at the bottom of the tier lists these days

[bronze shore]

runemaster is the strongest subclass among sorc and spellblade

sadly

runemaster also have alot of ward gen

and it legal ward gen~~|| not bug ward gen like warlock||~~

[weary steppe]

Mage is fun. Has kaboom builds. Easy enough to play. Have decent builds on all subclasses. Have some op/meta builds on runemaster. Fairly tanky when built in to ward.

[simple stump]

it feels bottom tier lol - the sword minions are so clunky

Could I do well without following a build? I might follow one anyway but forge guard felt bad no matter what i tried lol

[split schooner]

I allways told my friends that are new to the game do the story without any guides

[simple stump]

I did do one playthrough already

or well im on my 5th monolith

[weary steppe]

I would suggest following one until you get the grasp of mage. It has some tips and tricks you can learn from those. And when you are comfy enough you can do your own stuff.

[bronze shore]

actually doable

the game can be complete from chap 1 to mono withouth a guide at all

[rapid axle]

well you can play semi blind, just take the general idea of the build and look on the nodes, what they does to the skill and what skill they also trigger etc., there is many synergies

[bronze shore]

but of course emp mono need some good build

[split schooner]

Its pretty easy doable all of my friends didnt check any guide till the where done with story and had way to much fun while trying/learning the game

[simple stump]

how do you tell when a build feels 'good''? in POE, it felt good when you could clear packs of mobswith each cast of your main skill

LE feels slower but i can't help but feel my experience has been subpar due to playing a bottom tier class

[bronze shore]

it good when you can do 100 comfortably

[split schooner]

Good is for me to get easy trought emp mono great is if ure blasting trought emp monos🤣

[bronze shore]

and to do it without guide is already impressive

[simple stump]

how long would you say it takes to get to 100 for someone experienced

im level 74 after 24 hours 😭

[bronze shore]

100 i mean corruption

xd

[simple stump]

oh gotcha

[bronze shore]

lv to 100 is just grinding mostly

[simple stump]

i'll mess around with mage and see how it feels. is there a general loot filter for each class on maxroll or something?

[bronze shore]

you can just maxroll

since end game the only gear you pick up is exalted anyway lol

the 11th nigma lp 2 😭 😭 😭

pls god

[barren pawn]

remember XPs busted af chards build?

shards*

[safe grail]

lol yeah

[barren pawn]

wonder what they got cookin here.....

[hollow totem]

Gl

[safe grail]

havent seen XP pop up yet

[barren pawn]

@wraith mica YOOOOOO, you cooked anything up yet?

[barren pawn]

theyre here.

[bronze shore]

bro you didnt know but im the soley respond for T7 cast speed with 1 open prefix go from 500k to 3m

[barren pawn]

and theyve spoken

[bronze shore]

cause i failed the slam 11 time

[lofty nebula]

Anyone have any decent 3 rah fireball build? Damage is great, I'm just trying to figure out mana management

[stiff crown]

Could have just gone 3LP. Better chance, probably cost less overall, and have a better item in the end, lol

[bronze shore]

fr

but lp3 lowest cost usually is bottom roll

[stiff crown]

You get lucky sometimes

[bronze shore]

30m min

xd

and bottom roll too

[stiff crown]

I think mine was cheaper. I forgot how much I spent

Prices of high cost items fluxuate like crazy

[steep tangle]

of course the cheapest item will have the worst rolls?

why is that a surprise

[stiff crown]

I picked up a red ring for a couple of mil last night. Also LP4 Peak of the Mountain for 3m, lol

[bronze shore]

that why i rather risk with luck to get high roll

[steep tangle]

it seems like you don't want to though. it seems like you want the higher chance and the good rolls

[bronze shore]

higher chance with good roll is like 60m something

[steep tangle]

you can go for the risky option, but because its riskier you will fail more

[bronze shore]

lets goooooo i success the slam

[bronze shore]

250% cast speed

when in combat

[unborn hamlet]

im questioning the need for bleeding heart in the frostbite build

[bronze shore]

dont u bleed to death? xd

since frostclaw is a spell cast

and bleeding heart inflit bleed

[unborn hamlet]

If you don't have bleed to begin with how would I bleed to death

[bronze shore]

exsang i see

[unborn hamlet]

Besides frostclaw cleanses it

[bronze shore]

then yeah could work

[bronze shore]

I ACTUALLY FORGOT IT HAVE THAT

it cleanse the whole stack too

[unborn hamlet]

How exactly does twisted heart works

Is it %HP of missing health

Or %HP from health used

[bronze shore]

% of current hp to ward

[unborn hamlet]

So that's why there is bleeding heart

If I'm gonna be sitting at 1HP, I will have no ward gen

😔

[steep tangle]

you need leech to make use of twisted heart

where the leech comes from is not set in stone

[safe grail]

thats why a lot of builds do 6 points into leech in the sorc tree

either cold or lightning

[steep tangle]

my build uses the lightning leech in the sorc tree

[safe grail]

or fire

[unborn hamlet]

See, my crest of Unity is way too good to swap to tyrant helm for leech

Just to implement omnis into my build

Despite it fixing majority of my issues

I'm really not sure if that's worth it

[steep tangle]

twisted heart is the single most defensive item we could get as a mage

its crazy value

[unborn hamlet]

Which node is it

I have 25 pts in mage tree

Might respec it a bit

[safe grail]

right before the chain

there's 3x 1 pt -> 5pt lines

[unborn hamlet]

I see, probably too far to reach it without sacrificing something important in runemaster tree

[safe grail]

each of them cover the various elements, fire, cold, light

[steep tangle]

sent you a link

[safe grail]

yeah

well

for frostbite

yes

100%

there's no room to move points over

[bronze shore]

prismatic gaze lp1 is still 30m

😭

i think i just try my luck in black sun

[unborn hamlet]

CoF on top

i can throw those out like candy

[bronze shore]

sad moment

[steep tangle]

damn really

[safe grail]

yeah Lp 1 gaze are actually rare lol

[steep tangle]

happy about my t7 int one then

in cof tho

[bronze shore]

that the bottom 2% crit roll

the max 4% is 60m+

[steep tangle]

its a 15% according to le tools

[safe grail]

imma keep it a buck, im very tempted to swap to a claw frostbite build

but idk

[steep tangle]

that doesnt sound terrible

[unborn hamlet]

I mean, it's fun

But, all of your damage comes from DOT, on higher corruption like 500-750+, you will struggle with clear

you can always just run past everything ofc

[bronze shore]

at some point int might out scale crit multi

and vice versa

[hollow totem]

Ggs

[cyan mantle]

I'm trying to farm frostbite shackles with LP... and then I need to hit the armor shred slam... this is going to take a while 😦

[bronze shore]

wait i just fond something weird

so enternal gaulnet with t5 armor and reduce crit give me total of 300 armor

while plated gaulnet with t7 armor and reduce crit give me total of 210 armor

but when it put it in the difference is 7 armor

like what

😭

does it have a hard scale?

[urban bridge]

Guys do you continue after you clear an echo to increase stability? I usually go around a bit more if the bonus is too low but I don't know if that's more efficient or not

[dusty skiff]

in terms of efficiency, kill the objective, and open a new map

BUT, it really doesnt matter, just do what you find fun

[vale tartan]

Objective -> Next , but then scraping or the border of the Echo net to get Stability faster so you can do the Quests every 4 to 6 Echos

[urban bridge]

Are there any channels or something here where I could stream my build so that I could get some feedback?

[bronze shore]

just use the planner

[dusty skiff]

it actually is kind of weird they didnt add voice channels

[bronze shore]

@unborn hamlet bro what is this

[vale tartan]

Occasionally even Arenas because those are mostly wait 2 Minutes for max stability

[urban bridge]

I use that but I wanna get some feedback about how good my build is. Especially my defence sucks atm

[bronze shore]

nvm im stupid

the plated have str in it

i litreally forgot str give armor%

[tropic jetty]

having increased lightning damage (on idols) works for plasma orbs right?

[dim vine]

yes

[tropic jetty]

tyvm sir

[vale tartan]

I prefer xyz Shred on idols personally

If dont havy any other source of shred inside the Skills

[river marsh]

Anyone know if shrapnel nodes from volcanic orb affect shrapnel from meteor and vice versa?

[safe grail]

i wonder how well a high crit chance LB spark charge build would play.

[golden bough]

Found a box of hydra and it's a lot of fun! However not sure how it will perform at higher corruptions.

I will be happy if I can farm 200-300 corruption (SSFHC) safe and comfy.

[quick fog]

anyone got a good mage build guide i can use? currently lvl 20ish and not sure which path to go down etc

[river marsh]

Respeccing is basically free and most builds can reach endgame, so I wouldnt worry about it too much

[stiff crown]

Respeccing end game gear though

[safe grail]

well this is new

i have a legendary on the ground and it definitely fell thru the floor

so i can't get it

[bronze shore]

Yikes

[safe grail]

nothing i do can allow its tooltip to popup

hm

[stiff crown]

Rip

[bronze shore]

Oh that bug

[safe grail]

yea

[bronze shore]

Ye i think is from long session

[river marsh]

Sure but if someone is lvl 20 and asking about it, I wouldn't consider that entirely relevant

[stiff crown]

Reset loot filter?

[bronze shore]

That why i usually exit the game every hour

[safe grail]

like i said. tried everything lol

[bronze shore]

U need to accept the L

[safe grail]

ye

[bronze shore]

💀

[safe grail]

if you can take an L x10 on slamming Enigma i can do it for one unique

[stiff crown]

Gottem

[bronze shore]

💀

Stop triggering my ptsd

My build is basicly finished now

Hard to upgrade

By hard i mean lp2 item with all of it 30m gold+

😭

Now let see do i have the patience to push to 2k

Since every orbys only give +10 corrupt

[safe grail]

uh

they dont give +10 always lol

[bronze shore]

I know

Above 2 it got lower

[safe grail]

just making sure you remember

hehe

just know that once you get one mono up to decent corruption

[bronze shore]

I think it like 10>10>7>4>3 or smthing

[safe grail]

the rest gain a catch-up mechanic

[bronze shore]

Im at 400 corrupt now

[safe grail]

yeah so if you went and did a fresh mono

the orobyss nodes will have like

[stiff crown]

I might convert my build to get more defense at the cost of offense. Shades are starting to hurt. Thinking about removing Enchant Weapon for Runic in spec to get CFC using the one node that uses your hotbar order. Then swapping to Flame Dash to achieve CFC. This is my actual gear currently. https://www.lastepochtools.com/planner/BGzVV0nQ

on top of the +1-12, and +x corruption from oros

[bronze shore]

Nice

[safe grail]

that's your actual gear

wtf

[bronze shore]

You can try to get the 2 armor blessing from fire and winter

My armour DR is around 47%

[wet lintel]

they need the frailty

[bronze shore]

Then + 3 other DR

[digital oar]

how does percent chance to do something work when you go above 100% chance to do that thing?

[wet lintel]

but yeah i would roll off the stun chance to frailty on your weapon if you can get another 3 LP

[bronze shore]

Applied twice

[wet lintel]

if you're talking about ailments they stack faster

[bronze shore]

100% appied once
200% applied twice

[safe grail]

if you get a flat armor belt implicit, that will help a bit too

like OkayMan mentioned, you can get the flat armor blessing too

and your DR will go up considerably.

[digital oar]

does it work similarly for unvar's exile? I have something like 60 intelligence, so 180% chance for 33% increased elemental damage?

[chilly wave]

Apologies for the late reply! Maxroll is pinned as it contains a lot of useful info besides build guides however if players feel it would be best to remove it I can do 🙂

[digital oar]

so that would be like an 80% chance to get 66% increased damage, but a 100% chance to get at least 33% chance?

[wet lintel]

Yeah maxroll guides are rly bad

[safe grail]

the other guides are semi-useful early on, but again they fall off after you've gotten a hang of things

tbch i think maxroll should just be removed from the pins

[stiff crown]

I had the flat armor blessing but I recently changed it for frailty. Once I get a LP4 dagger with frailty, I can swap back. Or an amulet with sealed frailty

[wet lintel]

what corruption are you able to do with that build

[stiff crown]

I was at around 25 dr with it. Then I get more from the spellblade nodes

[bronze shore]

Btw kurii that gear is insane lmao

Lp3 on almost all gear sheesh

[stiff crown]

I’m only at 800 but I feel I can push further if given the time. I’m solo

[wet lintel]

i see

i think exalted armour shred is a bit of a waste

[stiff crown]

I think if I had this level of gear as FC main skill, I’d be going higher

[wet lintel]

on your amulet

[bronze shore]

If you get the 2 armour bleesing you will basicly be immortal

[wet lintel]

so yeah i would def try to get frailty there

or on your dagger

if you want another defensive layer

[safe grail]

amulet is going to be better choice

[wet lintel]

i would recommend reowyn's frostguard invocation

[safe grail]

it's more flexible for him rn

[bronze shore]

Could be that reduce dmg over time

[stiff crown]

My dagger will have CM, speed, shred, frailty

[bronze shore]

We all know we going to die from poison dot

[safe grail]

@stiff crown if you drop Flame ward for Runic invo, you will net gain i think

[bronze shore]

💀

[stiff crown]

But need to get a lp4

[safe grail]

o wait

hm

yeah so you'd have to like

[wet lintel]

idk

[safe grail]

drop flame ward spec

[wet lintel]

i feel like

enchant weapon is most useless

[safe grail]

convert LB to cold

[wet lintel]

unless zap is just busted

[stiff crown]

Zap is crap

[bronze shore]

Probably to sync with mana strike

[wet lintel]

yeah...

[safe grail]

hm

yeah that's a good point

[wet lintel]

mana strike + melee hit spark charges are neat

[safe grail]

if you're gucci w/ dropping 50% attack speed

[stiff crown]

But I use the 50% attack speed and it’s nearly 100% uptime with numlock trick

[safe grail]

then by all means

but

just know to run Frostguard

you have to convert LB to cold

and drop the node from Claw to bring it back to cold

[stiff crown]

I was going to make flame ward to cold

[safe grail]

hm

[wet lintel]

you can use runic invocation as a tp

to free up a slot on hotbar

[safe grail]

true

[stiff crown]

Have flame ward cold, flame rush unspecced, snap unspecced

[wet lintel]

flame rush is such a trash movement ability

[stiff crown]

It is, lol

[wet lintel]

but it does have damage reduction

[stiff crown]

But CFC!

[wet lintel]

xd

ya idk

i like your build tho

[safe grail]

it has dmg reduction and a bit of ward

[wet lintel]

it's neat

[bronze shore]

Wait if this build use mana strike to applied spark charge

[safe grail]

funny that you are playing this Kurii, i tried to lightly craft it last night lol

[bronze shore]

Then why frost claw?

[safe grail]

dragorath's procs

[wet lintel]

i think he uses both

[stiff crown]

To proc LB

[wet lintel]

probs mana strike

when oom

[bronze shore]

Or mana strike is there for 2nd dps?

[safe grail]

so he uses FC w/ the melee node

to get procs off drag's

to get more LBs

[wet lintel]

oooo

[safe grail]

to get more charges

[wet lintel]

didn't notice the melee node

[safe grail]

thats the build

yeah

[bronze shore]

Ohh

[stiff crown]

LB give more charges and Aegis

[safe grail]

it's a spellbalde build adapted to RM

[wet lintel]

yeah this looks a lot like that one spellblade build

yeah

lmao

[safe grail]

i literally

did this last night lol

with weird gear

[stiff crown]

lol

[safe grail]

just toying around

funny. i love it tho

[bronze shore]

That actually sound kinda nice

[safe grail]

ictuall kurii

i dropped enchant wep too

when i was theorycrafting

lmao

[bronze shore]

Oh so it a spellblade build but RM?

[safe grail]

yeah

It just takes all of the goodies in RM to make it WAY better

since charges scale w/ spell

[bronze shore]

Not gonna lie seems more intresting than any of maxroll spellblade build

💀

[safe grail]

lol yeah dreadful did a build showcase a few months ago

but for spellblade

[bronze shore]

I think i got the zizz of it

[safe grail]

you need to hit a threshold of 85% attack speed tho to make it SUPER shine

[bronze shore]

Seems pretry strong

[safe grail]

i mean he is pushing 800 corr already

so

good to know my idea cranks like a mfer

lol

[bronze shore]

But those LP gear is insane though

[stiff crown]

This build is fairly uunga bunga up until 700s corruption. Echoes are still easy but the shades are getting rough

[bronze shore]

Do you have the 2 armour blessing from fire and winter?

[wet lintel]

what ward do you cap out at

on bosses

[bronze shore]

Pretty large amount of dr

[barren pawn]

wat idea

[stiff crown]

You just set EW with numlock then just hold right click with occasion flame ward. Teleport if you’re sitting in dot

[bronze shore]

It will go well with your build since you also have +armour with -taken crit dmg cap

[stiff crown]

I can get a little over 20k I think. I swapped out some gear recently so I’ll need to see where I stand now

[wet lintel]

i seee

yeah working in frostguard

[bronze shore]

I asking since i dont see the blessing in your build for some reason xd

[wet lintel]

and getting better armor base belt/gloves

should help a lot

[stiff crown]

I did but I swapped the flat armor for frailty. Will swap back once I get frailty in gear.

[bronze shore]

Nice

Still pretty insane gear

[stiff crown]

I’ll need to look around. Armor is definitely my weak point right now

Thanks

Now I gotta actually play the game and use CFC

[wet lintel]

xdd

good luck

sick build

[bronze shore]

Omega op gear

If that stun chance is frat

[winter crow]

https://gyazo.com/5b52bd07e2f0495da1b6ffc51524d0d8 rip 30m gold 😦

no fc levels

[bronze shore]

It will be the most expensive dragon clas

[winter crow]

I guess the game wants me to try dragoraths claw build

that heart is bis for that build

[bronze shore]

Bro

U miss a lp2 twisted

😭

[winter crow]

yeah but its ok

[wet lintel]

did you use a rune of creation

on the relic

[bronze shore]

It lp2 twisted

[wet lintel]

ik

but the relic is 30M gold no?

[bronze shore]

Lp2 twisted is 30m+

[wet lintel]

+fc levels

[winter crow]

I have a ton of those relics, im only using +2 fc dont need +3

[wet lintel]

oh

i thought most builds were running +3 fc and unstable or +4 fc

[bronze shore]

Ye

[winter crow]

+3fc is bait, if you spec right you dont need it

[fickle pivot]

Hi! Do someone knows why in Lastepochtools (in the ladders section) the spellblade is so bad? I enjoy a lot this subclass, but the other subclasses aparently do their job better and when I see some builds with the spellblade skills, the other subclasses go farther in arena waves.

[winter crow]

you only need unstable core or omnis

[bronze shore]

But the pain part is mostly he missed it on lp2 twisted

[winter crow]

its not fully missed

its BIS for dragorath claw build

that build needs uncapped cold res and max int

[bronze shore]

Spellbalde is bad

[winter crow]

it doesnt need fc levels

[bronze shore]

You can try the spellblade frostclaw

[safe grail]

it was a build i messed around w/ during beta for spellblade. it's mana strike spark charge using drag's claw to proc frostclaw and LB. I was coming up with a build to adapt it to RM since it would likely scale better w/ RM

and it does

[bronze shore]

With it just spellblade LB

😭

[fickle pivot]

I tryed but if you see in the ladder section of that website, the same build but for other subclasses seems better. I don't know why that's happening

[barren pawn]

dm me that.. sounds fun

[bronze shore]

Ye spellblade it just weaker

[brittle elbow]

A question are timeliness endless or will I need to reset them eventually to be able to target farm some unique

[winter crow]

ima give the dragorath build a try, ik its like 10% less dmg but it might be better with 180+ int XD

[fickle pivot]

I'm actually playing it with a good build of flame reave I'm working on but I want to understand why other subclasses make the job of a spellblade just better hahahaha

[bronze shore]

Runemaster access to invo and passive ward gen outclass sorc and spellblade

Bro i just read spellblade tree

Why it so bad

[safe grail]

it's old af

and hasnt been reworked

[fickle pivot]

I don't know and I want to cry because I have one spellblade character with a lot of hours ivnerted in

[bronze shore]

Ye they need to rework the whole classes

It doesnt really fit with the mage us a sword fantasy anyeay

[stiff crown]

The main issue with mana strike main skill is that you miss out on twisted since it’s not a spell. And also the ward gained on mana spent since mana strike costs 0 mana. I could spec into Mana Storm to make it cost mana though… but in the end, I try to make up the ward though lowlife but twisted is too strong

[safe grail]

spellblade literally has a node that makes it's class fantasy possible and PUNISHES you for it lmfao

[safe grail]

was there not enough ward generated thru LB+FC procs?

[bronze shore]

Why spellblade have a boring cold swipe and runemaster can do an artillery bolt that wipe the map

[stiff crown]

I’m at like 20kish. I’m watching people hit 35k on YT

[safe grail]

oh wow

[bronze shore]

Damm no wonder u struggling with orby

Op

[stiff crown]

I’m gonna revise a few things to see if it helps. Thinking trying to fit in 7 points in Celestial Doom or something

[bronze shore]

Which node btw lul

[wet lintel]

dual wield

[safe grail]

dual wield. gemini

[bronze shore]

Oh

[safe grail]

it's the most expensive node in the tree because you need to take it +8 pts in the RM one to reduce dmg taken by 8%

lmao

[violet cedar]

Guys, wich runemaster build is the best?

[fickle pivot]

Ther's no news about a pobile future rework of the spellblade, right?

[safe grail]

correct. no news yet

[bronze shore]

Dam that painful

[safe grail]

luckily the spark charge build doesnt use that

so

[bronze shore]

Rouge can easily refund this since it litreally on their base tree

💀

[safe grail]

dude the first tier of nodes should fkn include dual wielding

[bronze shore]

Fr

They made spellblade super dog

[wet lintel]

at the very least

xd

[neon lynx]

Spellblade S tier

[safe grail]

and it should link to an 8 pt node that increases Dext by 1 pt per, w/ 5 pts giving a flat melee dmg bonus of like 50

[neon lynx]

yall just dont know it yet

[safe grail]

like they should make the node where the infused wep node is

and make it connect to infused wep

and then rework infused weps to be like

either flat dex per 1 pt

or

you get x dext for each pt of int

something like that

make it a 10pt node w/ a 7pt bonus instead

7pt bonus gives you flat melee dmg

ez

[fickle pivot]

Hope they do something like that

[bronze shore]

They should make a node where it enable shatter strike to be tri ele

[safe grail]

YES

[bronze shore]

So you will use battlemage endevor

[safe grail]

hard agree lol

[bronze shore]

[safe grail]

nah i'd still use 2x crystals lmao

[bronze shore]

+70x3

[safe grail]

2hs have no room in spellblade imo

get em out

[bronze shore]

+10% dmg taken as negative should be good enough

As a negative side

Since u cant have such a good node

💀

[safe grail]

nah you'd bake that tri-ele ish into shatter strike

[bronze shore]

But fr though imagine try ele shatter strike

😭

If i have the money and can time travel

I would pay 1000$ for that unique that enable shatter strike to tri ele

Since Ziz is the reason why that squirrel helm exist too

[barren pawn]

WE CANT DUAL WIELD AS SPELLBLADES?

IM SORRY WHAT?

EHG WTF

[bronze shore]

We can

But it deep into the tree

[barren pawn]

oh nvm then

[bronze shore]

Which it nonsense btw

It like 25 point in deep

[safe grail]

actually i take it back

[barren pawn]

if youre leaning full into spellblade youll not care about the point investment.

[safe grail]

it needs to be mastery passive to dual wield

[barren pawn]

id get the gripe if it were in the last treee\

[bronze shore]

But tbf they probably made it so that we dont just pick runemaster and use dual wield node

[barren pawn]

^

[safe grail]

LOL

[barren pawn]

double weapons with rm?

mmmm

[bronze shore]

Now that sound cool

[safe grail]

when they rework spellblade, i will return to it

[barren pawn]

Offline mods make this possible

[safe grail]

without a shadow of a doubt
