"Herald of Ash's secondary effect no longer ignites. Instead, enemies near slain enemies are burned based on the overkill damage. The description on Herald of Ash has been updated to properly reflect what it does." Does this mean the new Ignite Prolif gem won't work with HoA? Also how does the Ruthless support gem interact with Multistrike?

I have been playing SSF to take a break from my regular guy, and it is so much fun. If you find yourself getting bored with the regular league, I would recommend giving SSF a shot.

Got my SSF Trickster to A10 and stomped Kitava deathless. Then in my third map Abaxoth showed up and I killed him deathless as well. Then I went and poo poo all over merc Lab. Next time there is a hc race I want to do, I think I am going to play this build again. To be fair, having a Belly of the Beast is pretty big.

PotatoManJack posted:This is probably common sense to most players running maps, but I had a bit of an epiphany last night. Rather than doing a single map, then identifying loot, selling loot, organising maps, etc. I go to my stash, drop everything in my inventory into the first tab (labeled dump) and then jump straight into the next map. I do this until my dump tab is full and then I mass identify and sell/organise everything. This is what I use my quad tab for. Also in case any new players don't know, you can use the search function in your stash to make sorting easier. For example, when my quad tab is full I usually search "essence" and then "div" to highlight all the essences and div cards to move them to their respective tabs. Then I do the same for "currency" "map" "unique" etc until I just have rare items left to ID.

Ciaphas posted:Speaking of other builds: ED/Contagion. Scion Occultist/Deadeye, Occultist, or Trickster? It looks like all of them heavily favor going ES, so I guess I'd be trying that again too (I've never been comfortable with ES the two or three times I've tried it). Unless life versions of the three can work? I played a lowlife ED Occultist in Breach and cleared all the end-game content. It is slower clearspeed that Trickster, but at the time it was a lot more boss dps. With the buffs to Trickster in 3.0, I think Trickster is probably better (outside of doing something you specifically need Occultist for such as Xirgil's Crank). I got a SSF ED Trickster up to like level 88 this league and it was a lot of fun to play. If you don't like ES, I would definitely suggest a life-based Trickster with MoM.

I did +1 Decay Bow ED Occultist in Breach and a ssf MoM Trickster this league, and with the buffs to Trickster I really prefer it over the Occultist version. Nasty_Woman is the Occultist, although the gem setup would be a little different with the 3.0 changes https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Kumbo

I am liking most of what GGG is doing with Harbinger additions going forward, but as someone who was planning on doing only ssf next league, I am a little disappointed in the Orbs of Binding not staying in. It only really matters for the first character though. Edit - on second thought, without Harbingers being so plentiful I probably wouldn't have that many Orbs of Binding anyway soscannonballs fucked around with this message at 06:50 on Nov 2, 2017 |

Fuzzy Mammal posted:I want to make a cyclone character next league. Does anyone bother with any that aren't Ngamahu's? If I do go for Ngamahu's is there a discussion of the pros cons of the various ascendencies for it? It should be nice without requiring a dying sun if these reflect changes are to be believed. I killed shaper this league with a cyclone/heavy strike juggernaut doing pure physical damage.

I am considering doing either SR Trickster or trying some kind of cold based caster with Taryn's Shiver to try out the freeze changes. Not sure which Ascendancy to use if I pick the cold caster, thinking either Inquisitor or Assassin.

Velveteen posted:After the buttkicking I received from the red map elder a while ago, I went and leveled up my ranger to 90 and got my gems to level 20. It was time for a rematch and smashed him into the ground instead (with a few dumb deaths.) I'm having quite a lot of fun with the White Wind ranger. Its probably not as good as a good elecrit dagger with lycosaide or something but its super budget and I like it. When I was messing around with White Wind I ran Grace + HoI.

baby puzzle posted:I always feel like I'm "done" with a character after beating act 10. I feel like there's only ~15 more levels of skill points for me to play with, realistically, and my build is starting to feel weak anyway... What should be my motivation to do maps? Maps are fun, and with crazy mods can be quite difficult as well. You also have the end-game boss fights of Shaper + his Guardians and the Elder + his Guardians.

StashAugustine posted:not really sure what else i can do to bring it up. this is: 6l in a +1 bow with 21 ed/4 empower, pain attunement, enchant, 22 despair, and enchant You are missing out on a ton of single target damage by not using Blight + threshold jewels. Swap out your gloves for Allelopathy and socket them with Swift Affliction, Efficacy, Controlled Destruction, and Void Manipulation. Respec the 6 passive points you have leading to the templar part of the tree including ZO (it isn't needed at all) and use those points to get jewel sockets. In order to fit Blight into your build you will need to re-do your other gem setups. I would put both your spell totem setup in your chest with your aura setup, which means dropping the Enlighten from your auras and lowering the gem level of Clarity. If your shavs is 6l you can sell it and get one with two 3 links. Combine your Flame Dash with Contagion in your boots, and swap in Arcane Surge for bosses where you don't need Inc Aoe. You also don't need to run Despair as a Blasphemy all the time since you have Witchfire Brew. Instead use an Empower gem to make your defensive curses more effective, and learn when you have openings on bosses to channel Blight - that is when you will pop Witchfire Brew and get the damage when you need it. By respeccing out of the passive points I mentioned and 2 points that give life regen, you can pick up 3 jewel sockets and the 3 skill effect duration nodes by Elemental Equilibrium. Heres a PoB link of the changes I made: https://pastebin.com/grywNygW With this setup, your shaper dps for ED goes up to 214k and Blight does 20,795k per stack. Another change you could make (for bosses like Shaper, not for regular play) would be to swap out your Basalt or Jade flask for a Silver Flask, so you can stack up Blight higher in the limited time you have to safely dps the boss.

StashAugustine posted:Thanks! This does leave me with the problem of trying to get resists from four slots, might be manageable though. Would just slotting blight+3 supports in rare gloves work? Looks like it's halve my blight dps but not lose much on ED Blight is a lot more damage than ED though. Remember you can get up to +10% all elemental resists on a jewel. Also I just noticed on your tree you took 3 aura nodes up by CI, so you can respec out of them and pick up another jewel slot immediately for a total of 4. Two of those sockets need the Blight jewel, but if you put jewels in the remaining two sockets that have 10% ele resist, you are capped again, in addition to picking up some damage from the other mods on the jewels. You could also try finding a good abyssal belt with es and high resists, and socket an abyssal jewel with flat ES, resists, and possibly increased damage over time with a 2h weapon.

For Shield Throwing I am thinking either Chieftan, Deadeye, Champion, or Gladiator. A full fire conversion Chieftan would probably be pretty good, but probably not as a starter. I don't know how good the Bleed stuff is with Gladiator, but maybe some kind of bleed shield throw, or just Champion for generic damage + defense. Deadeye also seems sweet for a chain build.

I have a question about how the new Beacon of Ruin Elementalist passive works with increase effectiveness of chill/shock. Will increases to effectiveness from gear and other passives apply from the 10% chill/20% shock base, or will the game calculate what your chill or shock would be without Beacon, and then bump it up to 10/20% if it doesn't reach that threshold?

So one of the new supporter uniques is a shield that lets you trigger the meteor glove enchantment on crit (the skill still has a 10s cooldown). The guy who made it says you should be able to support the skill with gems socketed into the shield, so I am wondering if it would be possible to support a skill like that with a trap gem for an on-demand Meteor, perhaps as a way to put a big ignite on a boss.

Fenris13 posted:Nope, the shield does not give you the skill, like say Ice Whisper would, it casts the skill on crit, so it is already triggered and you can not have two triggers linked to the same skill. If I play a trap build and a regular trap skill crits (like fire trap) would it trigger the meteor?

I would love if they just removed Sulphite. Let Delve be its own separate progression thing so people can choose what they like more for endgame progression. Also Delving as an alternative to leveling alts through story mode would be awesome.
