yea but , as i said today like 5 times, mike likes to contradict himself all the time
if u watch the video above, its from a completly different stream and something completly different was said
but it doesnt matter at the end of the game
if they dont fix their performance issues soon, this game will crash into the ground within few months
and they will never bring the playerbase back because poe2 on the horizon and diablo 4
barren pawn
the games already crashed into the ground
20k daily ish
for a live service game thats only been out two months
thats terrible
for context the last live service i played that fell off that hard was outriders
unborn hamlet
true, but it doesnt have to be 200 soonTM

for a live service game thats only been out two months
Did you forget that new season came in PoE?
PoE and LE playerbase is basically 70-85% made of the same people
barren pawn
Okay and?
They are going to be on the same / similar release cycle if EHG keeps the cycle they ahve now goin
And if they cant retain people that then leave for PoE, that, again, just shows the game has issues
safe grail
a good chunk of ppl that left for poe left poe after like 2 days cause the league sucked lmao

Is it a must to run cold fire cold for reowyns fortress as runemaster? Defensively seems like required
feral moss
Is it a must to run cold fire cold for reowyns fortress as runemaster? Defensive...
there're lots of ways to build defenses as a mage. reowyn's is one very good way but there are certainly others
the real question is, if you're a runemaster and you're planning to not use reowyn's frostguard, then you have to consider what else you'd rather be casting instead.
for me i'm a pyromaniac so it's aergon's greater fireball all the way, obviously
vernal finch
anyone know if hybird health or cold resist gives higher ward for frost shackles?
shell fern
anyone know if hybird health or cold resist gives higher ward for frost shackles...
why would hybrid health give more ward with frostbite shackles?
i don't understand the question, cold res is literally converted to ward retention. hybrid health alone does nothing with frostbite shackles. hybrid health with low life build or twisted heart is good but personally i found stacking retention better with twisted heart builds than stacking hp.
vernal finch
i mean cold resist = ward retention cause frost bite shcakles
so 45% cold resist = 45% more ward retention
i tried they somehow similiar, my ward is like 8.7k vs 8.6k, i think cold resist gives more, but i might mistaken so i ask to make sure agian
i mean for legendary to put on my last steep shoes
im t hinking either put cold resist or hybird health
ops... i just notice this mage, was talking about rogue
my bad lol
safe grail
Is it a must to run cold fire cold for reowyns fortress as runemaster? Defensive...
yeah what the other guy said is entirely accurate; either you're using CFC for reowyn's or you might as well not even be playing RM lol
vernal finch
I tried not using reowyn once to test... Not very good result at all
Difference is gigantic
hollow portal
So much for build diversity lol

does timeline stability required remain the same as you move up in corruption ?
digital musk
yea but you get a lot more per echo
grave igloo
hellooo, can anyone help me with runemaster build for 1-100 lvl?
i saw many builds on net, but most of them for end game build :/
rare snow
yea but you get a lot more per echo
i mean at 100 corruption i need lets say 500 stability, at 500 corruption still need 500 stability (or does the requried stability increase)
digital musk
required amount doesn't change
but you get more stability per echo as you climb
to the point where if you wanted to, you could do like 3+ boss kills before you even reach the +4 oro node
safe grail
So much for build diversity lol
The problem with the design of runic invo is that it's supposed to be rewarding to hit 1-3 other spells and then hit runic to do something big and it does nothing big
like aergon's fireball, i should be able to yeet 3 fireballs and then hit runic invocation to send aergon's and it should hit like a giant fireball should and also give me a buff to fireball or something
but it doesnt
rare snow
thanks I think thats my issue. Game feels excessively grindy and takes forever to farm boss kills for uniques with LP
safe grail
it becomes less grindy to do bosses
every echo i do at 500 i only need to generally do 8-11 echoes to do a boss
compared to at 200ish where i need to do like 12-15 per boss
rare snow
every echo i do at 500 i only need to generally do 8-11 echoes to do a boss
thats still too much xD given you need the actual unique to drop and have decent LP but i guess thats the game!
safe grail
my current issue w/ the unique and LP system
rare snow
and lets not forget you need to right affix to go on the damn unique 😄
safe grail
is that 0 LP items just shouldnt even exist
there's literally no point for them to exist
i dont even bother picking up 0 LP items after i have at least a full kit of what i need
it serves no other purpose than to be just dead items in the drop table to prevent other useful LP items from popping up
it'd be better to just power creep us by getting rid of 0 LP items and then they dont have to focus on balancing corruption
they can then just focus on balancing builds
digital musk
how does turning every 0lp to 1lp relieve them of the need to balance corruption
safe grail
changing everything up to 1 LP increases character power
it would naturally cause characters to scale since you have a lot more opportunities to roll 1 LP items to be useful to your build
they've already said how they feel characters overperforming at certain corruption is where they likely goofed up
digital musk
i can factually tell you nothing would really change
shell fern
i mean if 0lp items are useless, then are magic and rare items aswell. might remove those aswell from the drop table
rare snow
they also need to make timeleiness all match in corruption
rare snow
its horseshit running a billion echoes on a timeline u negelcted
safe grail
i can factually tell you nothing would really change
i don't understand how you can factually say nothing would change.
honestly.
vernal finch
is that 0 LP items just shouldnt even exist
agreed
safe grail
having the opp to roll int on almost every gear slot lets say
shell fern
its horseshit running a billion echoes on a timeline u negelcted
you get insane amount of bonus corruption, it is fine. what they need to change is making corruption climbing better for alts.
safe grail
would LITERALLY and factually change the grounds of how fast you push corruption and how fast your character can scale into mid-end endgame
digital musk
i mean 1lp is not hard to get anyway
i barely pick up 2lp of most things even
you might get there like, slightly faster
shell fern
just filter out stuff that you dont need for your current specific build and you dont see that many drops.
digital musk
btw im fine with them removing 0lp i suppose my brain decided to nit pick this part
😎
shell fern
theres better way to just add lp option to lootfilter imo
digital musk
ya that should def be there
shell fern
0lp items can be still very useful for first timers and some rare uniques
safe grail
Yeah it just
Idk man. 0 LP doesnt fit
Nothing about it makes sense
It just pollutes the loot table with bllsht
hollow portal
I mean there are definitely useful 0lp uniques but i agree
safe grail
Yeah that “chase” is eliminated by playing MG and COF players have it the worst
COF’s rank where it gives more chances to get an LP item
Should just guarantee them 1 LP drops imo
If they dont wanna blanket get rid of 0 LPs
Depending on what changes they do for cycle 2 will depend on me bothering with it or not tbch
digital musk
I feel like my chances at 1lp are like 75% on majority of things thh (cof)
Only massive problem for me with cof is r10 adding the expensive nodes essentially nerfing prophecies lmao. Followed by boss drops not included but thats about it rly
shell fern
only red ring
ravenous void too
vernal finch
what item is that
o damn i always throw away no LP item
how much th at item worth
shell fern
unreal umbra
you probably wouldn't have found a ravenous void if you weren't trying to get it, very rare
i ran 3 0lp uniques at 1700, so still useful. would be 4 if i could find ravenous void at 0lp

i tried actively farming the boss for a good while and 150 glove ascendancies and nothing
accidentally accendancy'd my real gloves in the process which was fun also.
shell fern
i tried actively farming the boss for a good while and 150 glove ascendancies an...
yeah, i've farmed the boss aswell, ascendance runes and all to hunt for 1lp ravy. no luck yet. and i have 4 red rings, 1 with 1lp that is cof-tagged.
unreal umbra
i have 6 red rings. they are technically the same rarity right, except we can't brute force the gloves with prophs
(6 was actually 3 x 2)
i take it back, you can brute force the gloves, but not the boss drop part of it
i wonder if the majority of the gloves found are from the boss or random drop?
shell fern
i wonder if the majority of the gloves found are from the boss or random drop?
no idea, ravy is unique in that way that it is both a random drop and boss drop which always was quite confusing why it is that way.
unreal umbra
yeah, is it the only item?
shell fern
yes
unreal umbra
game decided to troll also by having another glove in the boss loot table to keep jebaiting you also.

i guess need to ask mike about it sometime

shell fern
sometimes even later, on my warlock i havent done campaign at all and i'm at lvl 78 lol
safe grail
yeah static i have only seen work one way; high crit chance using the nodes Critical mass and surge in the static tree
which means you need to be able to generate mana back quickly and have high crit which means playing mana strike and completely ditching orb imo
shell fern
lb only procced thru static?
whole moat
Yup
shell fern
ehh, seems like it wants to be too many things at once imo. i'd either focus melee spark charge or spellcasting spark charge.
lb or mana strike
safe grail
yeah for static mana strike is the only way to go
unreal umbra
are there any bugs that make FC RM do what it does right now, or just overtuned?
safe grail
because we have no other way to meaningfully gain mana outside of focus or mana strike

they definitely need some sort of other leaderboard that's not arena.

corruption leaderboard, that would probably make even me play cycle because that would be much more fun to push than arena.

yeah. no reason to not have it. do they get asked that a lot on the dev streams?
shell fern
no idea, i dont watch them. only check highlights on youtube.
unreal umbra
yeah same. way too long otherwise
unreal umbra
i only started watching those even when tonybing or whatever started doing recaps
i reckon they are just timing the first cycle to be not at the same time as d4 or poe which just happens to be closer to 4 months rather than 3
they timed the release perfectly. everyone jumped on
shell fern
was it said somewhere the cycle will be 4 months?
safe grail
yeah
shell fern
most ppl are expecting the next cycle start at the end of may/early june so that would make it around 3 months.
safe grail
they confirmed it on a dev stream
coral bobcat
imma just be fine with the ironing stuff out
safe grail
yeah nah. it's seeming like 4 months
unreal umbra
the way i understood it, they've always said close to what we're used to in other games which is 3, but they never said 3, which insinuates 3-4 or 2-3 . it's obviously not 2-3
coral bobcat
and then have a more "set" time for cycles
safe grail
yeah im just merely saying if they stick to 4, this game wont really get off the ground correctlyt.
esp if they take forever to handle exploits like the gold dupe that completely fkd MG
unreal umbra
they also took too long to bugfix gamebreaking bugs, and didn't even bother fixing the current ones which warrant a mid cycle fix

Hey y'all, trying to make a build without following a guide. Going Crit runemaster. How should I go about building my defenses? Obviously I'm gonna cap resistances and try for Crit avoidance as well as cleanse ailments on potion use, but that's kinda all I know. How much life and/or ward should I target? Should I invest in both?

all the cool skills and synergies dont really matter if there are only one or two viable paths
might as well play d4
digital musk
They all work until 5-600
hardy loom
lol "up until 150 corruption"
bro i can run any synegy scuffed build and hit 300
ure talking about "only one or two viable paths" when u say "works correctly up until 150 corruption"
hollow portal
i play mage and druid
digital musk
Oh baby
hardy loom
theres plenty of druid builds that runs life and does decent to 500++
its only when pushing to 1k + that sets apart and makes ur "one or two viable path" true
i dont hang out in primalist channel but im pretty sure if they read what u say they gonna laugh
not that it matters
hardy loom
brother 150 is too low a bar u are setting
hollow portal
not that there arent builds viable after 150
digital musk
It starts getting less diverse bc ppl just Google "best mage build"
hardy loom
it takes time to know what to gear/build a char such that you dont even need any guide, and at that point u can make any build work
lol
at least up till 500
if u are searching build guides u are only gonna see those few builds
if u like a skill maybe u can post the planner and get the primalist people to check it out lol
tho there do exists some skill that just are not supported well as much as others

ok so like is fireball anywhere near as viable as frost claw?

I think it's just all the spark charges and frostclaw triggers happening all at once in big packs
I always played on very high with consistent 80-90, never had perfomance issues before
This build struggles even on medium, too many zappy effects I think
And I can't exactly toggle those, and if I remove too many triggers from my build the damage goes away
Already had to remove mana burst from mana strike, probably gonna have to remove zaps from enchant weapon
I don't think it's the amount of damage triggers, cause the server connection stays the same, unless those are done client side I dunno
acoustic fox
A toggle for each skill to render or not render its effects would be a cool addition. I mean as long as you see and aim the main skill you kinda don't need all other effects to crowd the visual.
simple heart
Honestly if I could turn off spark charge effects it would probably fix it
hardy loom
doesnt matter the game is not optimized
its not even spark charges
i get the same on both frostbite fc and lightning fc
simple heart
Ok that does make me think it might be the amount of damage triggers
Which in fairness, are plenty in my build
hardy loom
as much as i hate moments i die due to screen pauses, 98% of the other time its playable
acceptable i guess
unborn hamlet
the optimisation is simply terrible
a game like this should run on old graphics card no problem
but even top end ones struggle
ive been running Lost Ark on max settings without a single fps drop ever no matter the amount of effects or enemies on the screen
and that game is actually heavy on the visuals
this is simply a joke

Hi gents newbie just started almost 2 weeks ago.. Is mad alchemist's ladle only drops from Rune Prison?
strange flicker
yes only from the exiled mages
safe grail
LMAO poe league just plauged w/ a turbo bug that they patched already
or farm? i guess
strange flicker
btw do u know how overlapping spark charges work? @safe grail
the dmg gets added together
idk what %
but a big portion
am tryina
strange flicker
add as much area increase as possible for nova
safe grail
and then let em pop
strange flicker
so they overlap more
safe grail
it's kind why sorc has the chain reaction build and why that is so effective
strange flicker
kinda wana test a t7 area on neck
safe grail
cause each charge can apply a spark nova
strange flicker
and using area icons
safe grail
and each nova can apply a charge
strange flicker
yea
safe grail
lol
strange flicker
i think dass da play
sadly the nova helm sucks so kinda nogo, wud be nice if it wasnt so bad
but even without
safe grail
i dont mean elemental nova
i mean literally
spark nova
from the sorc tree
there's a build that Redkatt came up w/
strange flicker
oh
safe grail
where you can scale and use both lol
it's kinda dumb, but it results in a lot of flashy crits
and very likely has higher dmg potential than RM
strange flicker
i mean sorc in general
can have higher dmg than rm w arcane ascend
but rm has 10x the ward
LOL
esp w our lil trick
median hamlet
the optimisation is simply terrible
just allow no corpses in settings
corpses just linger forever
strange flicker
but ya am tryina see how much u can stack
sadly the idols that give are really bad outside of the grand glass idol
unborn hamlet
just allow no corpses in settings
i already asked them to implement this, and the answer was a somewhat ´´yea we dont care´´
and that the dead bodies staying up for so long is a bug
like
just give me the option to turn them off completly
safe grail
but rm has 10x the ward
v true, but sorc i think can hit armor cap way easier tho. ward not as super required
maybe i should push my sorc up w/ FC a bit
strange flicker
i think thats sorcs biggest issue
if u can figure out the ward situation
i mean theres ways probably
stiff crown
Just don't get hit
strange flicker
but honestly cfc 30% dr isnt as big of a deal, u can elevate that w items
i do 6k corruption w/o cfc sometimes
4 the yolo
its just the ward issue
if they can mana to get 20k+ ward somehow
full bluff
ward for sorcerer kind of scales with monster hp (not against bosses). more monsters, more hp = more ward
full bluff
I can sustain 30k ward on sorcerer against bosses
full bluff
monos maybe 60k?
full bluff
everything just dies, and I am not at high corruption to test
with a group of 5+ monsters I generate 10k / second, as long as they live
safe grail
prolly using invokers static touch
stiff crown
After a certain point, the game will catch up to you
full bluff
more monsters = even more ward
safe grail
at least that's what i'd be using
full bluff
yeah, invoker rings
safe grail
alongside strand
strange flicker
ah
full bluff
should work with spark charges too
full bluff
they chain react, just lower chance
strange flicker
rn am stacking area increase
strange flicker
but man
strange flicker
lose so much int
rn i can maintain about 40k in monos depending on how much damage i take
sometimes 50-60k
w some rm magic
without those rings
full bluff
with those rings and ward on crit...
and chain reaction :
if only had that on sorcerer
strange flicker
hmm but those rings arnt bad then
i mean
if u run my build
w no movement and run teleport/focus for tele
and u run arcane ascend
cant u be tanky af
strange flicker
cause as long as u dont move ur mana is coveered
and u dont need more damage cause arcane makes up for it

but ti confusing.. x.x idk wat ability proc which ability
safe grail
well depending on your goals
waxen wren
is see mage with ice missiles all over the screen
safe grail
there's a very high chance that whatever you build, will not go farther than say 200-300 corruption
full bluff
multi shot ice barrage can go to atleast 800 corruption

good thing is that its pretty easy to swap around usually

It applies to spells too. Except damge over time stuff.

Spell crit chance is best for casters, rolls higher than generic crit chance.

Anyone know if lightning skill crit on idols affects spark charges?
hasty vortex
It applies to spells too. Except damge over time stuff.
Crit multi also applies....
That much I understood on the spell crit I was just curious because I was pushing corruption and I came across 76% crit strike chance and I wanted to know if it applied to your spell cringe stuff like that like all the crit chances and all that stuff so I was just making sure because you know strike doesn't specify anything because I'm a caster I don't strike anything The only thing I could think of is your spells strike but strike in my terms means melee so that's why I was asking to make sure and then it made me second-guess myself cuz I have 333% could strike multiplier so then I was like am I going in the wrong one and I don't see a spell multiplier like that so I was just trying to make sure and confirm before I totally trash to build cuz I would have got ticked off lol

I wasnt sure because it seemed like the bugged never late node did not affect spark charges.

I will say spark charge using it like with a frost Nova build I feel is one of the top tier builds I enjoy it a lot
I have about two of those idols on my idle slots I don't know if this stack does anyone know the lightning crit and the spark charge ones
Like the ones that have 300 mana if you have 300 Man out of a double that effect I'm wondering if those stack

Correct, it doesn't suggest anything other than extra crit for a non-channeled ability. So its working within the confines of the verbiage. Streamers run out of content and need to find new stuff to call "broken" or "OP" in their Youtube titles, and simpletons run around repeating it until it gets nerfed. Happens in every ARPG. Its kinda funny actually

The skill is clearly supposed to give the increased crit for the first, singular ability cast after you use the travel skill. It gives more than that. It's a bug.
opal mountain

It absolutely is not clear. Which makes this a great opportunity for the devs to address the simpleton phenomenon in ARPGs by simply adding the clarifying verbiage that the buff will continue until you cast a different ability. That's all it's missing. Hopefully they get it right. In Blizzard's case they had fired so many people nobody knew how the items and abilities were originally supposed to work. So everytime a streamer called something "bugged" they didnt know the intent they just nerfed it so they could say they are "listening to the players" lol

cold gives you some freeze rate to help lightning is just so you can use a different rune
spare glen
cold actually gives a lot more, it gives 1k armor and 25% block which is insane and i would take it on any build over % dmg nodes
strange flicker
2 much point investment, you can never get all that without heavily losing the DR/ward retention
its gonna be between the armor vs 15-20% damage increase if you go lightning
also the block is perma 10% doesnt scale
i think if you're going frostbite/using shield its not bad, or if you dont have static shell/need the extra def
usually though you're better off getting more damage since you shouldnt be dying w flame ward on
well thats assuming ur not having to cfc automatically, then ur only choice is cold since fire sucks

Any of you got a build using the grand prism nova?

help guys
If you have that much Armor flat, something like a t7 armor% on chest will give you over 3k more extra Armor
muted valley
help guys
You have to find what your flat armor value is. You do this by finding your % increase total on your gear and dividing by 1+ additive armor.
Then you can calc flat armor add with your additive increases vs base armor with increase additive %
Basically look at any skill nodes or talent tree for any additive % increase and also don't forget strength adds % armor aswell

i think poison resist is most useless stat, tried it at 40 and 75, doesnt matter poison puddle still kills you in 1.5 - 2 sec
unborn hamlet
sounds like skill issue and that would be because poison puddle is DMG over time
Either cleanse it, or get the suffix that lets Armor mitigate DMG over time
vernal finch
Are there monster poison attack that don't do dot? Like normal poison attack

was thinking taking lv 2-3 sealed frailty, and remove my poison sealed
or laddle frailty is good enough allready, i have only 20% on laddle frailty
strange flicker
ladle good enough to keep up perma
but honestly capping resist isnt dat important
u just need decent amount cause its free reduction
i been trying to play without the mana efficiency frost claw idols
i just need abit more mana regen/ways to get mana sadly
cuda ran some next level degen idols
if only mental aegis node wasnt so dog on flameward tree, actually destroys ur mana and makes the regen node unusable

when i got to 1k my net dced before i clicked go next round
mental boomed me now arena is banned
vernal finch
but honestly capping resist isnt dat important
i was thinking 64 poison resist 73 necro resist is good enough
my current setup with 2 x idol = crit chance lightning and increase lightning damage
or i can remove this 1 of this, since i put like 2 of them
and put idol to cap both poison and necro resist, but they gonna be overcapped....
strange flicker
ya for sure
am still rocking 61% poison/physical when my julra doesnt proc
LOL
overcapping is a complete waste generally and so dont bother losing a stat slot for something like 10 or 15% of a random resist
physical usually is the only one you kinda can, but i personally wouldnt
vernal finch
was wondering what kinda mobs / that do resistance shred, are there many on high corruption? im only 2.2k now
strange flicker
you completely ignore resist shred mobs
cause overcapping doesnt actually help you with that
the way it works is that your resist is actually 0 at max level when ur resist capped and any shred just puts it in the negative
vernal finch
70 resist vs 75 resist is like 5% less damage, or its difrent calculation
vernal finch
5% is kinda huge though, or is it.....
strange flicker
i mean not really
cause its a specific type
how often do you actually need that 5% against say a poison mob
and how often would that be the diff between dying or not

its like 20% chance to get it
not too bad to have
vernal finch
another good stat is actually getting aegis when hit
aegis on chest?
strange flicker
yea
for monos
would prob have okay uptime on the 25% DR
and its free, u lose a lil bit of damage for not getting crit damage but its w/e for monoliths u dont need that
u do gain cast speed so it makes up for it
and the 50% increased dmg is okayish though u do it for the DR
strange flicker
what i was tryina test earlier
which i think would work on sorc better
is dropping the 2x frost claw idols
going full on aegis chance when hit+ cast speed
and going nova area increase
LOL
would be insane cast speed/area increase for nova
but yeee requires some kinda mana sustain even with my setup that has insane mana values
sorc can do it though
vernal finch
how long is lightning aegis duration
vernal finch
wow thats a long time
strange flicker
twisted heart can drop it though
if u lose hp via twisted alot/not leech it

twisted heart can drop it though
what u mean
strange flicker
basically lets say ur spamming frost claw but ur not hitting anything
once u lose ur 20% or 25% of ur health
aegis drops

u gain it pretty often anyways
