will we ever get more fun chaos spells

Blight was a failure and we only have ED or CA if we want to play a pure chaos build

Wow! All that damage! It still won't make up for the 100% + movespeed you'd get from pathfinder or raider my man!

Ah yes, teach me how to play the game you level 75 shitter, you've already taught me about the weapon restrictions of Flame Dash, I'm learning so much from your obvious game expertise right now

*Launch poe*

Heh... time to make a choice, a choice to play this game the way _I_ choose and no one will tell e otherwise... who cares if it makes me clear at half the usual speed... this is my game... my choice... my word

thanks ggg

It's okay to be a shitter as long as it's your choice, bub

Tell you what, there's even a league specifically catering to you, it's called Legacy Softcore

>EHP
but what about the movement speed

aoe nerfs were uncalled for and retarded
the concept of divination cards is an utter failure

Removed the league-exclusivity from four types of Talisman. Now all Talismans and their unique counterparts are available across both Legacy Standard and Legacy Hardcore.
Fixed an issue where Belt of the Deceiver's Intimidate aura had an additional visual effect
Fixed some clipping issues with Deicide armour pieces.
Fixed an issue where using a Vaal Orb could sometimes remove the level requirement on Perseverance and Heartbound Loop.
Fixed an issue where the selected chat language was not saved, and needed to be changed each time the client was started.
Fixed a bug where Beyond Leaguestones did not stack correctly with other modifiers that offered a chance to spawn Beyond portals.
Fixed an exploit where it could be determined if the Monstrous Treasure Prophecy had triggered on a map while you were still able to cancel consumption of the map.
Fixed an issue where Grandmasters with the Incinerate skill used the old non-channeled version of the skill.

> Fixed an issue where using a Vaal Orb could sometimes remove the level requirement

do they even play their own game?

It was strong but slow. Trashy survivability. I planned on going LL but I was poor, I tried with a tabula and had about 6k ES, and had 60 chaos res from 2 mings heart so if I was careful I could use health pot quickly. Had enfeeble and some CWDT blind setup, so I dodged a lot of shit. My build used 90% uniques so I barely had resists when I threw elemental purity into my prism guardian, too forever to find gear to get to cap, couldn't even overcap.

enjoy it while it lasts, before 3.0 comes along and introduces abilities that infinity-dips

also funnily enough forums are the best place now to get inspiration (not copy paste) for new builds. post some fancy build in reddit and it just get shot down because its not as fast as brain dead vfb

How do you sustain during hard fights like guardians on golemancer? Once Vaal Disc is down it feels like the floor is lava and any bit of damage i take could end up killing me because es regen timer is brutal sometimes. Is there any way to leech off of golems?

>>174395260
it converts 50% of phys damage, with avatar of fire you can do any physical skill as fire so don't limit your thinking to just fire bow skills. I think a lot of people do an elementalist full fire conversion tornado shot build, this build is pretty neat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmm-BUwirWw&feature=youtu.be but it's >life and uses too many uniques so has a low amount of life on top of it.

>4k fuses deep into 6 linking this 5 off color vaal regalia

I leveled from 90 to 97 trying to link this shit.

you know you can guarantee a 6link with vorichi right
dumbass

okay so I'm currently running a Essence Drain trickster, and my resistances are shit. I know the primary culprit is my ring, as I am currently using Doedre's Damnation so I can run 3 curses (Temporal aura, Enfeeble Aura, and Witchfire Brew)

would it be worthwhile to just drop Doedre's and get a better resist ring, or should I just try and find the same stuff on other armor?

>falling for the vorici jew

yes good goyim be sure to buy my bot's fusings off of currency.poe.trade while you are at it, gotta save up to 1500!

is the damage loss going to be noticeable?

>>174398115

>>174398198
nah, I more meant against beefier stuff like bosses, certain rares, etc.

how to spot shitcrows:

they prioritize running quad curse over getting above 50 all res

>>174398198
None of his curses help his damage, they help his survivability.

how does vulnerability help your survivability

>>174398317
two out of his three curses help his damage.

>>174398317
vulnerability from Witchfire does, my dude

>boohoo i kill a map boss in 0.5s without my doedre instead of 0.48s!

if you are really autismo about tri curse you can stop being a poorfag and buy some gear with more resists

>>174398398
Which ones? Enfeeble and temp chains just put a debuff on enemies.
>>174398420
Fair enough, wasn't thinking about which curse that one placed on them.

>>174398609
temp chains also makes effects wear off slower, so Essence Drain lasts longer, allowing it to spread further through a pack or just do more total DoT to a boss.

nobody tell him about the curse penalty against map bosses which is multiplicative with the map mod itself

let him cripple his build for marginal dps increase

>>174398609
>Which ones? Enfeeble and temp chains just put a debuff on enemies.

yes, a debuff on enemies is the definition of a curse. temp chains makes any effect last longer, so his dot will last longer.

New player here.

What is it you really do in the game? Like what's the end goal? Seems like endless farming and speedruns.

>>174398760
Complete the Atlas, then wait for next league to do it again.
The autists here enjoy running Shaped Strands ad infinitum, though.

you grind so you can start another grind
that's poe's end goal

if you ask "why?" to this, we might need to get philosophical

>>174398760
it pretty much is, with an added bonus of coming to /poeg/ to brag about running strands or berating others for not playing the game the way you want them to, and don't forget whining about reddit, poe forums, twitch or pretty much any third party site that isn't 4chan because /poeg/ is the bastion of TRUE Path of Exile gameplay, running strands for 12 hours a day in the hopes of getting gear to fight Shaper despite you being fucking terrified of doing so because you play hardcore and will cut yourself if your character dies due to your being a fucking retard who can't actually play the game outside of mindless loot treadmilling.

It also gives you Avatar of Fire without spending the skill point, plus bonus strength and a debuff. It's good, but not necessary, and I don't even think it's big enough of a meme to drive the price up that much. If anything. Vaal Fireball shot the price up more

Seems the truth terrifies the hell out logoutcuck

>>174400674
Kind of. It was expensive before streamers starting memeing about it, but their builds definitely drove the price up.
Mostly it's just that it's a >free keystone skill, 10% inc health (>free life node), 10% fire pen, and 20% more fire damage once they hit you.
I think some builds also like the strength.

if only you spent half as much effort trying to be good at the game as being jelly of superior players here, maybe you wouldn't play poopcore

I'm aware that it's a good amulet, I still want to buy one but I'll hold off if the price has inflated (so to speak) because it's currently a bit popular for streamers and their viewers. Hence, I'd wait for it to die down a little.

You're not fooling anybody. Go back to crying in your little corner.

>>174401648
It's inflated, but I don't expect it to go down because besides the build it's based on is pretty goddamn decent even for being relatively memey. It's cheap enough, so I expect that people will do it and sub out the necklace for other shit like Tiki or something similar.

your friend is right. you can turn all restrictions off.
>>174403061
is a retard

need some help, bear with me please
i'm not entirely new but i'm retarded when it comes to some mechanics

i don't understand why voltaxic is used so rarely / why its so cheap. from what i understand, the damage conversion to chaos damage happens last, right? so you can still just scale elemental/lightning damage which is then converted to chaos damage

isn't chaos damage more valuable because monsters have less resist to it?

no bully plz

Y'all chat in 5055, don't you?

>>174404328
Yes, but switch to Multistrike for bosses.

>>174404328
Swap in for mobs, swap out for boss obviously

>>174404498
Voltaxic conversion was nerfed heavily because of all the double dipping poison builds

>>174404840
>>174404835
Yeah, I just might do that.

How reliable is Multimeme exactly? Like, if the SRS starts the Multistrike right as the mob moves, won't SRS miss all subsequent attacks?

>>174404498
voltaxic builds have been hit by several nerf waves: spark nerf, chaos convertion nerf, soul strike nerf AND drillneck nerf

prolly thats why people dont do them much anymore, but they where a lot more popular on early 2.0

Downloading from the official site right now. Path of Exile is terribly optimized and rapes storage space to begin with but when you couple it with steam all you get is memes right to the face.

>>174404969
That probably happens occasionally, but the 94% more attack speed more than makes up for the occasional loss of a hit.

>>174405113
>Path of Exile is terribly optimized and rapes storage space
The standalone client handles it just fine, Steam just refuses to allow GGG to patch it correctly. Instead, Steam rewrites the entire game several times just to patch a couple of files.
Payday 2 has this same problem.

>>174405113
does she have autism

>>174404969
Multistrike is generally reserved for the HP sponge bosses since most aren't very mobile anyway.

Also if you check out Path of Building, apparently a lot of summon like SRS have terrible accuracy rating even at like lvl 27. So much that additional accuracy support is basically a significant 'more-like' multiplier

>>174404528
>channel dedicated to diaper fetish

>tfw shit prophecy after shit prophecy

Why not use Multistrike over Splash for clear on SRS too? Massive attack speed (MORE) and it hits everything around it anyway.

>people unironically recommending multistrike on SRS
every hour is shitter hour

we have a new generation of idiots who refer to PoB numbers and have actually never tested shit in game

>>174406126
>and it hits everything around it anyway
Maybe with old SRS, where your horde overwhelmed everything, but with only 20 of them the crowd control is pretty shit without melee splash.

why the fuck would you run SRS anyway

>>174406181
what do you recommend then, anon-san? you seem to be extremely intelligent for path of exile.

melee splash you dimwit

there is never even any need to ever swap in multistrike considering the vast majority of bosses have adds and for clear speed multistrike is idiotic if not detrimental

i'd recommend using a real skill lol

>>174406630
>94% more attack speed makes you deal less single-target damage than melee splash
hmm
i think that
maybe
/poeg/ is terminally retarded

yes because path of exile is a dungeon crawler where you fight series of single bosses at a time

totally not maps where you rampage through 1k+ trash mobs at a time

melee splash is ALSO essentially a more damage multiplier on single target as long as it's surrounded by other splashable adds, but you don't get that because you're too retarded to actually imagine a scenario where tooltip damage is not reflecting the reality

>lol guys melee splash is more modifier if it's one of the two bosses in the game that summons minions therefore you should use it on izaro
>trust me, it does way more damage than 94% more attack speed does.

why use srs when you can use blast rain mines and one shot pretty much everything in the game?

>>174407047

Finally. Fuck levelling characters that are soon-to-be LL. Painful experience.

The wording seems global; this means taking both will increase any poison damage against bleeding enemies by 60% right?

iv noticed in mid to late merciless it seems to be alot more often that mobs have resistance to your specific damage type
and how ever far iv gotten in maps, its just plain more common than finding a mob without it
wtf is this?
is this just the game 'getting harder' or am i just getting really bad luck with map rolls?

im still clearing at a decent pace, but its starting to become more sluggish the further i progress

What would you guys think of a slower attacks gem? Melee only, less attack speed, cant be used with multi-strike and buff to damage?

>>174422635
higher tiers = more monster hp, more resists

>>174422764
yeah i get that they have more hp and better general resistances
but it target your damage type specifically
im playing an ED build atm, 95% of the mobs i find have the "chaos resistance" mod
found the same thing when i played a shock nova build back in prophecy where most had "lightning resistance" mod

im just asking is this normal? having your damage type specifically resisted by mobs in late game?
