the game is so weirdly designed since RoS, there is no real point to seasons if we follow the logic of paragons levels which you need to keep pushing higher and higher to complete higher grifts, which is the only goal in the game.

Does Righteous Fire implicitly scale with 'increased spell damage' effects?
It appears to be a degen effect but levels and quality on it give increased/more spell damage which normally doesn't affect degens. It also doesn't have the "spell damage scales this skill's DoT" line that Contagion, ED, and Vortex have.

Anyone always listen to the NPC's to get pumped for the zones? For some reason Diallas dialouge after defeating Kaom and Daresso about giving away the last thing she had from Malachai seemed much more poiniant this time

'They all leave me'

Had my sister round yesterday and she was acting the same, her bf left her and she usually comes to mine with a few drinks so she can spill her heart out while I say 'I know' a lot. But it seems sadder this time

No idea what I am even saying now, sorry for the blog. I think y point is some of the NPC's seem very human.

Self burn is only affected by your HP and your ES. The burn on enemies is only affected by HP, ES, and Burning Damage/Fire damage mods.

>The burning effect that damages both the player and enemies is not affected by x% increased Spell Damage. As of Patch 1.0.2 x% increased Burning Damage and x% increased Fire Damage no longer increases the self-inflicted damage, but does increase damage to monsters.

lol, are you kidding? You can run a minion build on blues until you get to higher maps.

You will need to get specific gear for later maps but what build doesn't?

What the fuck are you talking about? People play ED literally just for the way it clears packs. If you think clearing packs with it is hard then you are doing something wrong, if you simply don't like the way it clears packs then you picked the wrong fucking build.

>>156814837
Yeah the slow scrolling is annoying but they paid voice actors so I suppose they wanted you to hear 3x. They didn't do it for free.
>>
>>156815339
Eh, I think I just got used to the damage from essence of delirium which won't trigger on Contagion.

Contagion is also only fun on big packs, horribly annoying to use when its a bunch of small, separated packs (or there's an immortal mob/totem within)

I don't really like using blasphemy since i feel it's more convinient to have longer range than stop recasting for every new mob that appears, also, i depend on my mana flasks for inmunity to frozen and bleeding

And i put iron will instead of Pierce because i wanted increase damage overall.

WI is probably pretty good, but I think T12's a poor indication of a build's effectiveness.

The difference between T12 to T15's 0. I can melt bosses even in seconds even at T15. Trash's the same in T16, but T16 bosses can take so much more damage (they don't deal that much more damage compare to T15).

>>156820279
No, as a summoner of any kind your defenses are you minions. So buffing them and make sure they can take hits for you. SRS the premise is to kill stuff off screen before it even gets close to you. For zombies/spectres its about just not giving a fuck and have them shamble on. For AW its about momentum and killing things before minions fall/expire.[/spoiler]

That being said ES is most likely the way to go. You want to make sure you don't get one shot. So bare minimum 3k ES or 4k HP to start maps well. Once your ES starts to get more healthy you can go LL or start reserving health for more auras.

If you wanna go full deep end you can go all the way down to Blood Magic and the 50% less mana reserved node. You can reserve 5-7 auras. You use Stone Golem for your "mana" regen. This requires a shavs to be HC viable. You can get away with Solaris Lorcia in funcore.

might be a cool idea but only if they make it different. Like.. at level 70 you get a quest "talk to eramir" and he gives you a map, "den of bandits" or whatever, where there's 3 dens, one for each bandit. he asks you to kill them all but of course you can help one for the extra charge.
having to randomly find the bandits in maps (like trials) would be terrible. Has to be a quest.

I will get flamed for this one..but hear me out.

Ive been around ,off and on since start closed Beta August 2011
Posted some feedback and sugg. over the years(happy too see Mjolner and map endgame ingame from previous suggestions Ive made)

One thing I still miss is a "true" HC ladder..
Now..what do I mean with that?
well,
There is Standard,Hardcore and 3 month leagues mkay..
Each one of theese cat. attracts diffr. players ofc.
I always find it funny when "HC" players complains about "game too easy" well..ofc they dont play the game the "hard way" =allright..Another complaint is that it would "split" the community ..(cmon folks)
But the current ladder lies...
Give us an option to check "Selffound - no trading or party allowed at char selection..
I do not ask for a seperate league ,just a seperate ladder and equal shit for all..


In the past the argument against this have been quite amusing ..ranged from "its not ment to be played like that" well..many do play solo and enjoy the feeling when "that item drops"
"Why take resources and money for this instead of fixing other stuff?" well , my suggestion is not that GGG creates a seperate league..just the option to lock party / trade =in existing leagues=easy .
Then...I will take posts about the game beeing "too easy" serious..
Playing my first char ever since start not HC (easier too learn since ive been away a year) and got killed soo many time with my HC solo sf chars ..he he..
Anyways..
Take care and have a good 1

Where Infernal Blow burns hot, Glacial Hammer freezes to the bone. The spell infuses a Mace or Staff with the essence of pure ice, making a weapon so cold it can barely be handled. A successful hit from Glacial Hammer deals grievous damage, and if the target is already frozen and near death, it will shatter into thousands of shards. The more skilled one becomes at inscribing the runes for Glacial Hammer, the greater the frostbite becomes, eventually leaving most foes frozen solid.
>>

There's nothing wrong with flasks, they're cool and unique to the game. The problem is blade vortex being a melee skill.

>>156837027
basalt: 20% reduced phys damage taken
100 phys hit
80 phys damage taken
total mitigation: 20%

taste: 20% of phys damage taken goes cold
100 phys hit
80 phys damage taken
3.8 cold damage taken (81 cold res)
total mitigation: 16.2%

16.2/20 = 0.81
taste of hate is 19% weaker than a basalt

>>156836975

yes it gives a nice damage boost but also less mitigation
isn't that what uniques are about? advantages with drawbacks?

So. PoE. Gems allow you to channel magic. Gemlings would fuse with the gems for more power with their magic. The world was nearly destroyed when they took harnessing that power a step further.
Piety found out about the gems and sold the information to the pope for funding to continue her obsession with magic. The pope exiles criminals to be used for human experimentation for Piety as she tries to uncover the secrets of the old empire. Blackguard military use gems - shield charge and arc for most cannon fodder and more diverse skills for those of a higher rank.

You play as an exiled criminal. You come across a gem early on. What is it about you, the player, that allows you to draw on so much more power from the gems than others? As you gain experience in combat, as you use the power of the gems more, you gain levels which gives you more power. Are you being corrupted by the gem, is it fusing with your character, are you somehow doing what the old empire attempted? Over the course of the game you kill piety and the pope who have both either fused with the gems on some level or used that power to literally ascend humanity. You take down Malachai who used magic to steal power with perhaps the strongest existence in the multiverse. You are able to safely traverse the realm of nightmares and conquer the strongest mother fuckers in history. But unlike all of them you're still human.

Why? What's going on with the player, /poeg/? Has there been any explanation for that in the lore yet? It shouldn't matter because

The Exiles are murderhobos extraordinaire. Every NPC tells you post-act that they are fucking terrified of you because you've just waltzed in and killed the most powerful thing they know of like it was no big deal.

It's just generic protagonist power. The PCs are explicitly not gemlings because the art of putting gems into flesh has been lost, and putting them into equipment makes the effects weaker.

Change it from that minor regen to increased 20-39% life recovery for levels 1-20.
What this stat means is, all forms of life gain like flasks, leech, regen, LGoH etc, are increased by that amount. Makes it much more interesting, keeps the theme, allows to somewhat mitigate reduced recovery map mod. Due to being life recovery, it only affect life so stuff like ZO ES RF doesn't benefit from it in the slightest.
It seems, at least to me, like a perfect buff for life builds. (besides doubling life node values ofc)

Honestly, I think GGG is happy with where Vitality is now - as a tool for summoners & support builds and as a bandaid for RF players before they finalize their build. The problem is that if you buff Vitality too much to make it more useful for a wider range of builds, you also end up buffing its existing niche roles. I think that's one of the reasons why they introduced Stone Golem - it's like a better Vitality for solo life-based players that's less restrictive since you don't need to reserve mana to use it.

your best bet is always spell and elemental damage. whether you want to scale the cold dot or convert to fire for ignites will affect what supports you use.

>Is that a low life vortex build?
Yes

>Mind giving some tips?
I'm probably the wrong person to ask. The skill is strong and can melt T15 bosses, but I can't do any of the T16 unless it's a white map or something.

>I've seen people advocating traps, cold > fire conversion, focusing on the burn, ignoring the DoT, and I'm just lost.
I do Hrimburn Ignite with Crit for self-cast, so I went with Occultist for massive survivability boost. If you wanna go Trap, I'd go Assassin over Saboteur. You really want to cap crit because if it doesn't crit, the damage's literally garbage. I only went Occultist because I've never played a Witch still and I've did Trap in previous league. I personally don't like Pyre for conversion, because it makes EE clunky to use.

>Looks like a fun enough skill.
It's okay. It's more engaging than brain dead EA build, though I lack AoE in my build and gear requirement make it so that I don't have enough movement speed (need Experimenter Quicksilver of Adrenaline and Onslaught Flask constantly between packs).

Leveling sucks shit and you need Shav. You don't really die past 80, but I must've died 40 times leveling with Solaris Lorica.

You're playing the wrong build, bro. Slap faster casting and inc aoe on contagion and grab some aoe from the tree and/or gear. With a little practice, you can cast contagion after ED while the projectile is in the air, making it a whole lot smoother.

Because not everything needs to be casted more than once. Contagion is better with fast casting than spell echo. Some things can't be supported by spell echo at all, like anything on a spell totem, or a movement spell like flame dash or lightning warp.

Probably not? Considering you have no crit (can't take advantage of Hrimburn and Dyadian Dawn), the weapon starts out with shit damage, you didn't really invest into Frenzy charges, and you can't really use Conc Effect.

There's no point in investing into a 5% base crit weapon. A 5% base crit axe of all things. Since you need lacerate, multistrike, and wed as a bare minimum, and since the meme build only lets you slot in three gems, you're not going to be slotting in increased crit chance.
Non-crit is my only option. Which means stacking ele and cold damage and hoping for the best. I have absolutely no hopes in it ever clearing red maps. I just want to meme it up and enjoy mid tier maps. And for that, non-crit melee with a mediocre weapon should be fine.

>>156849038
Flat physical damage reduction doesn't do much of anything unless you hit 70-85% which you aren't doing unless you got tons of uptime on your endurance charges.

These are things a dodge and es build don't need, and they usally have massive overlap+ a huge hp pool(read energy shield).

Most life builds will have resistances capped + lower life than most es builds, but without the dodge or es, and SOMETIMES a form of block. So that's 40-56ish % of physical damage reduction, with maybe 15% extra coming up at varying times due to endurance charges.

The only good piece of armor to come for health and armor builds has been the brass dome, and it's fucking expensive.

So builds who go combination es and evasion are usually much better off than most armor builds by virtue of having much more layared defenses. With either more-or similar health pools.

Probaby because Kaom's heart require less gambling to be good, it just immediately gives you tons more survivability as opposed to lightning coil, which means you need to regear heavily for the boosted lightning resistance.

People have a hard on for big numbers this patch. If you don't sport 14k ES or 10k life you're labeled a shitter. Nivermind the fact that you can have more ehp with 7k health and a coil than either of the above while still clearing just as fun.

>more ehp with 7k health and a coil
When stacked with the other forms of mitigation available to you.
>>
>>156849726
No it doesn't, because you're basically running double or triple the amount of mose health based ussers, plus added evasion, plus block if your build uses that, and that also doesn't compensate for the insane regen time and the ability to use most of the same defensive flasks. Especially since an effective health pool is vastlky more useful in this game than defensive stats, since it's so hard to stack armor to the point that it's useful UNLESS you're a Gladiator, Champion, Juggernaut, or Gaurdian, and then only if you stat them specifically. On the other end of the spectrum, you can reporpuse many of the ascendancies to be lowlife or ci builds. This allso doesn't account for the fact that piercing completely negates all the armor you have (which is fucking retarded) along with various forms of poison and bleeding.
>>156849786
You don't need the health on that armor, it's made for 2h builds that can't bock, and it NULIFIES extra critcaldamage, which means you won't take nearly as much damage form most mobs, and only have piercing to worry about.

Question about armor:
Suppose you take a 1k hit, but you have 10 endurance charges, so that's 40% reduction right off the bat.
Is reduction from armor calculated before that (i.e. plug 1k into armor formula), or after (plug 600 into armor formula)?

You can't rightly compare anything, as that's mostly up to the individual. The issue here is that it's a tab that rightly shoud've been in the game in the first place, and not as a paid addition.

>You compare prices for like-goods.
Goods of different natures can trigger the same pleasure mechanisms in your brain so I'm not sure why you're intent on separating them as if they can never be comparable. I'm not likely to blow $50 on a nice restaurant meal because I know I can get more out of it from entertainment, but the logic of maximizing my pleasure within a budget is what ultimately rules my decisions, not the nature of the goods I purchase.

>You can buy several games in a Steam sale for $6 that willl consume many hours. How does the added value of your experience playing PoE compare to the add value of your experience of playing those games?
That's entirely subjective though. For people who enjoy PoE and PoE only, the "added value" of a currency tab is entirely justifiable for $7.5.

Yes, anon-kun, when your son comes and asks why you aren't going to watch Disney's Faggot Movie, you can point to your six dollar stash tab and say, "Daddy thought this was a perfect substitute for the experience of taking you to the movies. You can even sit and watch me grind maps to fill it up!"

Of course you can compare goods of different natures. There's a very simple metric for that: hours of enjoyment derived from them. You have presented no arguments to suggest otherwise.

This metric is entirely worthless. From a bed that cost $1000 you could expect to receive 150k hours of use. Obviously the correct purchase isn't a stash tab, it's a bed.
The argument for buying a good of a type is that is of a better value of a different good of the same type, not that it is cheaper than a good of an entirely different type. You will fundamentally price the value of the characteristics of goods of those other types differently, and will choose between goods of those types.
Buying a stash tab is not an aspect of social bonding in the way that seeing movies is, thus a comparison between a price of a movie and a stash tab is worthless. It's merely propaganda.

You're picking the part of his argument which syas that these things are comparable, you say they are not, even though this is subjective.

You cherry picked that part, and blew it out of proportion to make your target easier to attack. So you were strawmannig the arguement, to make yourself look better.

>>
>>156851986
No, you're introducing another metric that is completely different. I'm comparing entertainment with entertainment. I'm not entertained by a fucking bed, I sleep in it. It's comfortable, and it serves its purpose, which is not to fucking entertain me. If you watch movies for entertainment that majorly overlaps with the same sense of entertainment that you derive from video games, then it's hard to justify $12 for a 2-hour movie and at the same time refuse to spend $6 on a video game you enjoy for much longer. Your personal bias (movies are more than just entertainment but also a chance for social bonding) is completely irrelevant when comparing how much entertainment you derive on a per-buck basis.
>>
>>156852063
I suspect that the only taxes you pay are your social insurance taxes.

No, what you are attempting to do is propose a leaky abstraction, "entertainment," and to pretend that goods within this category are price-comparable as it suits your propaganda. Even here you reject the notion that a bed is "entertainment," even while one would use it for coitus, reading, watching movies, and so on. I mean by your momentary standard for entertainment, it's safe to say that a stash tab is not entertainment at all. It is merely a construct for representing virtual baubles in a video game. It's purely a utility whose purpose is artificially constructed by GGG.

according to the wiki, endurance charges apply on the same step as armor and would thus be additive.

But that would be worse, because armor reduces a bigger % on a smaller hit.
>>

volatile literally does nothing but make melee unviable
casters don't even need to know it exists but it can one-shot melee because it scales off shit you would never expect it to and ignores defenses you would never expect it to (you can block bearers but you can't block volatile?)

The point of volatile mobs is to add risk to mindless clearing with squishy characters, and it's dangerous to any type of character, because it can be present on mobs that leap or pop up/down.
>>
>>156853032
depends on the monster giving the corrupting blood, most times it won't do shit. But other times, the corruption will burn your health to nothing in seconds. It's even worse on monsters that give you bleed when you hit them.
>>
tfw died to a volatile devo because it was on low hp and popped up right next to me before it died
>>
>>156853308
That's not how it works, takes the incoming damage and your armor, and uses those to calculate a % reduction to that hit which is additive with the others.
The question is whether the value plugged into there is first reduced by other % phys reductions.
>>
>>156853346
They need to bring back reflect so my shitty clearspeed is more competitive. Atleast then it fucks over everyone equally ranged and melee
>>

Are you illiterate? It's clear from the context that I am talking about short ranged attacks that force the player to riskily approach enemies. Obviously I'm not talking about Lacerate or EQ which are both considered viable.
>>
>>156853394
Armour does nothing against physical degen but flat physical mitigation does. If for some unknown reason you cannot run any staunching flask, a juggernaut with 10 endurance charges still takes 40% less bleeding damage than someone with 0 endurance charge. The myth that bleeding is equally dangerous for every build is just a myth, it's just another form of damage that is more dangerous to some builds than others.
>>
>>156853346
I wouldn't mind that if the affix was in big bold letters, and if the enemies didn't actively try to suicide into me.

>>156853426
>That's not how it works, takes the incoming damage and your armor, and uses those to calculate a % reduction to that hit which is additive with the others.
The equation still reduces more actual damage from a big hit than a small hit, learn fucking algebra you braindead moron. 5% of 10,000 damage is still more damage than 90% of 6 damage.
>The question is whether the value plugged into there is first reduced by other % phys reductions.
It is not, the reductions from armor, endurance charges, and basalt flasks are added together on the same step, which is better than the alternative of performing the armor calculation afterwards and MUCH better than the alternative of performing the armor calculation first.

Which I already clearly explained.

Who the fuck allowed skyforths? Every other anti-stun gear has an actual downside (ezomyte peak essentially has no other stats and removes evastion, kaoms roots has no movespeed or sockets and removes evasion, the ring has negative resists), but skyforths is basically BIS for most ES build, gives PCoC and reduced mana reservation on top of it's stun immunity, all in exchange for giving up life regen... which doesn't matter at all for 99% of ES builds.

Reduce the effectiveness of stacking max res. They could remove the pen and double the damage, and it'd have the same effective damage to players with 75% cold res. However, in that case, a player with +5 max res (from purity, por ehemplay), would be taking 20% less damage than someone with 75%. With 25% pen, OTOH, that would become 50% res vs 55% res, which is only a 10% difference in damage taken.

Basically, if they didn't have that pen, you could stack a bunch of max cold res and facetank shaper.

It wouldn't be really all that useful on CA because it would only improve your single target damage by adding 1k * (chaos/dot modifiers) on top and if you're willing to trade AoE damage (+3 bow) for single target (Decay) then you might as well be playing ED and apply a much more powerful debuff, 1k * (chaos/dot/projectile/spell damage modifiers)
>>

I'm not a fan of the two cast for ED and contagion. Other than ghudda's build that was posted earlier, what are some solid 'hold right click and win' ways to proc it?

>>156871868
Vortex would be another good spell to apply Decay, actually the only one besides ED that has the "Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to this skill's Damage Over Time" exception so instead of topping at like 10k chaos/s which I assume is the ballpark of what ghudda's speedy decay, you could mayyybe push it to 20-25k+/s with a generic average tree

for example
400% generic damage (chaos/dot/aoe/spell) from tree and gear
*1.44 from controlled destruction
*1.39 from rapid decay
*1.39 from void manip
*1.59 from conc effect
*1 from inc aoe

5*1.44*1.39*1.39*1.59 = 22k chaos damage per sec
Basically plays as a melee Contagion+ED rolled in one spell, but you're foregoing actual ele damage for chaos scaling (this has however the advantage of being able to use a lvl 1 Vortex for ele reflect maps)

Kind of a meme build if you ask me as you will never reach decent single target this way, but if you're focusing on map clearing it could be good I guess

This guy made a build with the exact gem setup described above and the Scourge which is great for generic damage double dipping

Shitcrow started when someone typo'd shitcore which is an insult toward non-hardcore leagues and someone forced it for like twenty threads after until others picked it up.
Ranger's dialogue is pretty based. Pathfinder, one of her ascendancy trees, is broken right now because flasks are broken right now. If you're a new player then by all means roll a pathfinder. You'll be hard pressed to find an easier build to get rolling.

It's literally the same game, but for NEET faggots. You have no reason to play HC if you're not NEET, retired, or a streamer. Even then it's questionable with how boring it is.

You should be fine up to t7 or so. After that you'll run the risk of being burst down instantly. But hey, you made it to maps. I'm guessing you're either new to the game or finally overcame your condition as an altoholic.
Nothing really to walk you through. Or, well, there's too much to walk you through? Fuck, I don't know. Map bosses. Some are easy, some aren't. Some of the easy ones become ridiculous with particular map mods. Just roll with it and have fun. Learn from experience. If you're playing HC and rip keep playing it in SC. You will want to experience all the maps, the bosses, and how different mods affect them before you play HC. Otherwise you're just going to die constantly on new characters and never make it to red maps. Don't 20q and chaos spam low tier maps. It's not worth it. Just alt until you get a solid pack size roll.
Buy out Zana's stock whenever it restocks. It helps when you start mapping.

The ones who never make it to maps. I have a good number of friends that have played hardcore exclusively since beta and have never survived past 80. And lately, even reaching 80 is because of dried lake. It's kind of sad. They spend more time leveling than they do playing the actual game.

>The equation still reduces more actual damage from a big hit than a small hit, learn fucking algebra you braindead moron. 5% of 10,000 damage is still more damage than 90% of 6 damage.
Which isn't how it works, you mongoloid.
The "armor" part NEVER directly reduces the hit on its own, it calculates a percentage which gets added to the other percent reductions.

>>
>>156882031
100 life/es per enemy hit generally.. It's wiser to calculate using base damage
(firedamge*(1-critchance) + firedamage*critchance*critmulti)*attacks/casts per second.

Then multiply by how many mobs you expect to hit every cast.
>>
>>156882097

tactical altf4 may be something chris has in mind as to not dumb down bosses too much

but still relying on altf4 to save you in a split second of burst damage is going to be a gamble, one you will most likely lose to

altf4 is meant to be used as a way to escape encounters that you realize you cant do safely and dont have time to open inv and portal out (or cant portal out)

thx.
I'm new to the game, not to the genre though.
I have a bunch of Tier 1 white maps. I am supposed to transmute, augment and alterate them, right? Or use Alchs? That's whats confusing me.

It's just weird that you did it.
You get literally nothing for it but an achievement and it's harder than most early maps.
>>
>>156881992
You don't need to follow someone else's build, but generally thinking about what skill(s) you want to use at end game, and what defensive mechanics you want to rely on is a good idea. Since poe has a shit ton of passive shit everywhere, poeplanner or some other passive tree planner is a good idea to see if you can get what passives you want within a reasonable level. You're still in normal so you shouldn't really be fucked.
>>
>>156882097
but then the game would be "too hard"
I hate to say it but this game has never and won't ever live up to diablo 3's (at least at the start) level of gameplay. The inability to log out meant that mobs just didn't one shot you out of nowhere, but meant that positioning, cooldown management and timing were EVERYTHING.

>reducing a hit by a percentage does not reduce the hit by a flat amount.
You seem to be really desperate to find a semantic error to argue over that you jumped on something that isn't even incorrect.

What is your life like that you need to misconstrue things on the internet to pretend as if someone misinterpreted something?
>>
>>156882097
>intended game mechanic
No. It's a way to elliminate frustration because GGG know their game is janky. So when shit goes wrong players won't simply stop playing because it's a frustrating mess. They can log out, save themselves the unfair death. But it also means you can save yourself from fair deaths..
>>156880310
Llook at this player. Even if he managed to save himself he certainly didn't deserve it. He's completely out of control, practically didn't even dodge a frost orb. This is what I expect to see from a drunk person playing. Then he dies puts himself directly in the way of the hydra split-shot pattern.
Absolutely awful.

Logging out as a game mechanic is at best GGG's way of excusing their poor balance choices. Perhaps the game is too hard without it. But if you had a skill that could make you immortal instantly with a button press in any other game you'd consider it casual.

>positioning
if monsters can't one shot you, why does positioning matter?

the reason bv pathfinder gets so much flak is that positioning doesn't matter (you facetank everything), there is no rotation of skills, and there is no timing needed for flasks (facetanking refills them)

there's your d3 gameplay right there
>>
>>156882750
It doesn't go through the stages of reduction while calculating the hit, it calculates all the percentages up front and applies those all at the end.
>>
>>156882942
You should probably run multiple vaal frost nova in that build.
What's your effective clear? Level adjusted XP/hour

Why did I think going through lab would be fine as a summoner? This is fucking annoying. Why am I even leveling as a summoner. Why am I even a summoner.

>>156883154
It's obviously a dried lake clearer prototype.
>>
>>156882995
because you could get walled off, walk into a group of those plasma(?) laser mines, or clouds of poison that could shred you VERY fast if you weren't paying attention. They also made sure every class had access to very good movement skills so balance putting the players in very awkward situations. When chris talked about players "waking up" when two rares were next to each other - that was actually true for D3
>the reason bv pathfinder gets so much flak is that positioning doesn't matter
which has been true for all the best builds in PoE history
you build so you can't die if you disconnect, you can't die if the game lags, etc. and because most things don't even give you a split second to react, you build so you can tank everything
>>
>>156883010
I know.
That's what I said.
Twice.
>>
>>156882995
>if monsters can't one shot you, why does positioning matter?

because things ground effects can 2-3 shot you and if you engage a group correctly you can put yourself in a spot were youll be taking enough damage to die if your movement skills are on a cooldown

bv is much dumber than d3 gameplay, because poe's movement skills are better and leech mechanics are potentially much better as well
>>
>>156883182
being a summoner just means you use one or several summon skill gems

there is nothing that states "summoners take 50% extra damage from lab traps"

would this shit affect traps or totems assuming they were linked with a skill that could knockback?

I'm starting to think that maybe ARPG players are just retarded. Looking at every player I come in contact with they seem to have some form of brain damage. But maybe it's just poe especially.

Never said it was traps. I just feel compared to my other characters I am not instagibbing izaro fast enough, and then he jumps over my minions and tries to leap slam me in the face instead of slapping at the zombies that are flailing their arms around him.
>>
>>156883579
yes the knockback reversal is global and totems count as "you" for most things except "on kill" or "on hit" effects
>>
>>156883579
Yes. All knockback is reversed. Ball lightning+ knockback on spell totem draws monsters close to the spell totem.
Same with shockwave totems.
Not sure where traps would push mobs but probably towards the trap location/where it was.

>>156883826
reminder - dont rely on the notable that gives your crit's knockback

I tried a chinsol max crit build but you need the knockback distance from the GEM and one passive cluster to make it worthwhile. Also tornado shot seems like a no brainer but the AI is terrible, they shoot at the nearest monster instead of the center of the pack. I preferred barrage + max pierce + volley fire
