Tabletops posted:i think people are kind of sleeping on that buffed emperor's vigilance shield. it lost it's worst drawback (cannot block while you have no es) and is now like 2k armor 400 es and comes with free glancing blows (not sure if that's still good or not though lol) Ssssh, don't ruin my chance to relive the glory days of SST before it was nerfed. Crouching_tuna was playing around with this on stream and made some PoBs on it, gets decent endgame dps. One with trickster aswell, but how to level is another question.

MMF Freeway posted:haha I swear I thought of that but I guess I just figure that gearing for % damage is easier than crit multi or spell sup or whatever else I took instead of more damage. Would you not value getting piercing shots with the shadow start? Cuz when I was thinking of the tree I definitely had it in my head that its a must have pick up. I guess piece support is not that bad these days compared to other options but my plan was to put energy leech in that slot Going through a few PoBs I think you should go topside non-crit for the league start. Buffed Singularity will be a great starter weapon

I'm in between (poison?) LS, elemental helix, claw molten strike (does this work for real? this is my favorite skill but I thought it was garbage now) and some kinda EA build. Maybe spectral throw? Minions of some kind? I had a lot of fun w/ 3.16 skelly warriors and have wanted to try elemental golems I generally like helix and last league I was rolling nice w/ EA until they fixed the krangled text and my game started memory leaking every 5ish maps. kinda wanna play a ranger or marauder, unless I do witch. Genuinely torn! Plan is farm heist a bunch which is the only reason i'm even considering poison LS. I think I like most of those builds for that, idk about golems though

3 min endurance charges for one jewel looks pretty good if you can find good choices from the other spectrums for the other two slots.
|
# ? Aug 13, 2022 23:54 |
Two jewel slots for 4 permanent endurance charges... sounds like a decent deal to me.
|
|
# ? Aug 13, 2022 23:55 |

endurance charges are the easiest to maintain, but if you're using the elemental resistance spectrums then it's a no brainer to replace one of them with the minimum endurance charges, since you lose 9% all but gain 12% phys. im assuming there'll be minimum power and frenzy charge next; if so that would be massive for any build that uses void batteries.

# ? Aug 14, 2022 00:09 |

If a build that uses Void Batteries doesn't have reliable Power Charge generation its a poo poo build
|
# ? Aug 14, 2022 00:11 |
Power charges are easy anyways, if you can't fit charge on crit into your build it's not worth going power charges anyways.

Traxis posted:Updated version of his build(s) are here: Reiterpallasch posted:ruetoo popularized cf champ back in 3.16ish and guides from back then should still be mostly good, though i think the aura reservation nerfs probably mean you're going to have to drop defiance banner or herald of purity; that's going to ding every old build to some extent, though. Much obliged. This looks fun

Nothingtoseehere posted:Power charges are easy anyways, if you can't fit charge on crit into your build it's not worth going power charges anyways. also gets kind of weird tweaking critical hit chance at that point since with the 480% crit chance increase you get from the charges it can be very easy to get close to 100% charges, but power charge generation is easier the higher your baseline crit chance is before power charges are included. edit: i think it would also make Malachai's Loop better than 2x void batteries, since it has roughly the same damage per power charge at 10 power charges but the downside would be negated entirely FZeroRacer fucked around with this message at 00:35 on Aug 14, 2022 |

Anyone played brands recently? Specifically something like Velyna's Storm Brand Inquisitor? Or a suggestion of a different brand build that you've played and was good? I haven't played a brand build other than using them to level through Acts. I've got actual zero idea of what to play this league and nothing is inspiring. Last league I started with a seismic trapper and farmed up ~20ex for a CoC Forbidden Rite Occultist which ended up being the best build I've ever played. Melding of Flesh + Aegis Aurora was the most broken poo poo. I don't expect anything I play this league will come close to it, but I did learn a lot about prioritizing upgrades and making poo poo work swapping out smaller pieces to make room for the late game stuff as I acquired it.

138% of one poison stack

e: ^^ pretty much Depends on if your build goes for building many poison stacks or just a few strong ones. Benefit goes down the more the former

138% more of the one strongest poison. It's not great unless you have a slow-hitting attack that inflicts huge poisons

It's also a mod you can get on chaos dot medium clusters. I've screwed around with it before, trying to figure out if there was something worth doing with stacking 5 or 6 of those and the answer was not quite, but alchemist's mark does basically double the damage of One Big Poison so it could be now. 50% quality anomalous flameblast will give you 100% fire to chaos and 50% chance to poison. That was the best source I could find, although you could do something with assailum too. It's been a while since I looked into it, probably other options.

Yeah they're clearly pushing flameblast poison with it, so much that it's in the trailer. You'd really need poison prolif for clear though.

im gonna gently caress with alchemists mark since I'm gonna go scourge arrow again I think but I haven't decided whether I'll do trickster or Pathfinder yet. you really want to convert all your damage to chaos for basically any poison skill but they hate letting us convert to chaos and Pathfinder makes that easier for attacks anyway, plus prolif. isn't necessary for either pconc leveling or scourge arrow in general, but it's hard to turn down QoL... i guess trickster ultimately makes more sense because unless someone has invented new tech the best scourge arrow build is probably back to relying on nightgrips and a skin of the loyal/lords for most of your damage. and wasting two slots on loving ward and DPS but no life is really not conducive to living a long life

Does converting to chaos matter much for poison? The phys damage gets converted to chaos on the back-end anyway and I don't think stuff like armor will affect ailments even if the initial hit is phys since it just cares about the base hit for ailments
