>What do you take if no Saboteur though?
Pretty well anything that suits your fancy. My main problem with Sab. is that it has some of the shittiest defensive options of any ascendancy, so I tend to go Trickster to make up for that.

Trickster also gets the big mana buff to deal with how seriously mana intensive six linked cluster traps can be.

Yes. With two Cheap Constructions, this is how it works.

It helps with:

Pierce really does help a lot. Even disregarding the "other allies can't die" shit, there will be a million situatons where your ED stops on a bulky enemy and won't spread as fast as it should. Pierce helps in always getting a good target.

>>162092845
Yes.
>>162092914
Yes. If they didn't want it to double dip then it would specify "20% more attack damage" like how Flameblast specifies that it is only more spell damage per stage.

>>
>>162093018
This is wrong.

There are 4 damage types in PoE, each being mutually exclusive with the others, so any given damage increase for any would not apply to the others, unless explicitly stated. For example, spell damage applies to DoT for Essence Drain, Contagion, Vortex, Blight, Scorching Ray.

Blade Flurry more damage per stage does not "double dip", not more than Earthquake's aftershock does. It does exactly what it says, more (attack) damage per stage, it cannot affect any DoT resulting from the attack.

You're just obsessing over the wording which may or may not be consistent, or arbitrarily kept simple because the underlying mechanics doesn't really interest someone reading the gem description.

In any case, that's not how it works, nor how it ever worked. So you can be upset the description is not accurate, but you have your answer.

>>
>>162094667
You know what's consistent? Mechanics. If damage over time works a certain way, it will always work that certain way, unless exceptions are made, such as the cases of spells like ED. Unless that exception is explicitly stated ("Modifiers to Spell Damage apply to this skill's Damage Over Time"), you just assume it works the regular old way. This isn't a new case either, as I said it never double dipped for EQ either, it just happens to be a pseudo double-dipping if you include bleeding and Vulnerability. BF's more damage double dipping on poison would make it an even more monstrous skill and it really doesn't need any more damage scaling.
>>
>>162094929
>does blade flurry even need to double dip in the first place though
how is that relevant to anything? so many things in this game are busted as fuck and as players we are working to try and find out what parts are the most broken and abuse the shit out of them to win. That's literally the entire point of the game.

>>162095320
The precedent is that damage sources ALWAYS worked that way. That's why EXCEPTIONS have to be explicitly stated. If EQ/BF's attack damage also applied to DoT, it would be made very clear, the same way it is made very clear for ED, Vortex, and so on. There is no reason for you to assume it does double dip when it doesn't work that way for anything else in the game, save explicitly stated exceptions.
>>
>>162095363
>if you told me flameblast ignite got increased damage purely from flameblast itself
it specifies spell damage and spell damage only applies to hits so it is natural to assume it doesn't double dip.
when you have another skill that doesn't specify that it increases spell/attack damage that calls attention to that absence and makes it natural to assume that it could double dip.
>>
>>162095451
but you don't even need gear, barely

this is similar to how broken EQ used to be where you just had a hammer and it would dumpster things

this has two white daggers at 1.5aps and level 28 to use the skill and it dumpsters mobs

except for elemental damage on the tree, fire damage on the tree, chaos damage on the tree, elemental damage on gear, fire damage on gear, chaos damage on gear, aspect of carnage on the tree, elemental damage from gem quality, fire damage from gem quality, and chaos damage from gem quality.

all "exceptions" to the "damage doesn't double dip" rule and all lack an explanation to specify that they can double dip.

>>162096035
energy shield did not need any buffs so OBVIOUSLY presence of chayula's hp conversion would not also apply your energy shield modifiers post conversion.
and yet it happens.
>>
>>162096035
>now we're flipping back to wording
because you said that wording is how you notice exceptions to the DoT rule, like Vortex and Essence Drain, when there is no such text around double dipping.
>>
>>162095962
Those are not exceptions, the rule is that a modifier to a damage source can never apply to another different damage source unless explicitly stated. So elemental/fire damage can double dip on ignite, and generic damage modifiers (Berserker's Aspect of Carnage, Frenzy charges, and so on) can double dip, precisely because they're not restricted to one given damage source.

BF's more damage is implicitly attack damage thus can never apply to DoT. It's a property of the skill rather than a stat your character has as a Berserker or while having frenzy charges.

the fact that flameblast's is explicitly spell damage means that more damage is not implicitly anything.

increased elemental damage from gem quality applies to ignite from the spell but does not apply globally to other spells on the character with that gem equipped.

yeah I mean it's nice seeing the card art and all but asa storage it sucks balls.
I'd rather they made some kind of gallery (which you can access by pressing H, similar to achievements) where you can see the art of the cards you traded in and how many set of them. You could also see which cards you're still missing. Kind of like a pokedex for div cards. basically useless but still neat to look at. Might give some incentive to find them all

They literally added a tab with vertical scrolling. There's no limit to how they can change Tabs.
>Have Map Wheels for each Tier that you can scroll through, sort by rarity, quality, and corrupted or not
>Storage for Chaos Orbs, Chisels, Alchs, and Vaals
>And the usual (1) crafting slot

From a design perspective, some of their options for tabs are unique and interesting.
From a monetary perspective, they're pretty damn good and profitable.
From a consumer perspective, they're total trash, but whatever.

marauder can get up to 42% fire res from his jewel radius although it doesn't seem really all that useful for something like a juggernaut/chieftain which already gets plenty of end charges easily, scion is 2nd best spot and is extremely good for any caster solely for the end charges on kill and extra 10% block
>>
>>162101504
Best used in Templar outer, you can get something like 58% Allres. (While holding a shield)
and thus 58% Endurance Chance and 20% Block.
A 2nd one in Marauder outer gives 41% Fire/All mixed, which is 41% Endurance and 14.4% Block.

It's one of those ideas that sounds good on paper until it gets you killed. And yes, you can flame dash through frost walls, but why put yourself at risk of getting entombed in the first place?

It's 1 point per difficulty. Oak on Normal is a must for life builds. +1 charge on Merciless is extremely useful for most builds. Some builds use the cruel bonuses as well. Depends on your build.

>>162101737
The gem is vital because you need it for the anima stone, that's why it pisses me off

>>162101976
Yes, you are.
>Bandits offer bonuses you can't readily get elsewhere in such high quantities
With the exception of Kraityn's Resist in Normal, all of them are viable choices in Norm/Cruel/Merc.
99% of the time, however, Oak's 40 Life is better than Alira's 60 Mana for anything Life-Based.
If you're going CI or Low-life, a Skill Point is still usually better than 60 Mana.

Cruel, 24% Increased Phys is meh unless you don't get much of it, the Attack Speed same boat, and same for Cast Speed.

Merciless works a bit differently. There's no upper threshold for when Charges stop being as useful as Inc. Phys/Attack/Cast Speed. They provide continuously good bonuses in higher total amounts. With Oak's Endurance Charge on a Juggernaut, you can legitimately hit 10 Endurance Charges (40% Resist and 40% Phys Reduction) with ease and it provides an insanely powerful defensive layer.

What is a great spell to apply curses on hit fast and in a big range?

>>162102137
They grant you All Elemental Resistance (while holding a shield.)
There's some context bullshit and from what I've seen, it works.
You could literally socket it in and find out in a heartbeat, because the nodes in radius will have updated text to reflect the Jewel buff.

It looks like we dropped around 40% of users. The team are looking into it now.

Edit: Restarted the realm, it's coming up now.

Edit2: There's some very large problem, likely related to the quantity of items in Quad tabs or something like that. We are working on it hard.

Edit3: We have found the problem and are building a fix.

Edit4: The realm is up now. The problem was caused by the trade API in combination with Quad stash tabs. The Trade API will be down until we have deployed a fix in around an hour. We are very sorry for the inconvenience. This should have been caught in our internal testing.

ED is fucking garbage. It performs well below most builds at all levels in terms of DPS, it requires constant double casts to setup the combo, the Occultist passive Profane Bloom doesn't propagate Contagion before destroying the monster, you're very limited when it comes to general skill tree passives for damage compared to other skills, etc.

The only real benefit is when you're against weak trash that melts in less than half a second. It's the fucking epitome of a "Dried Lake Viable"™ build.

great.

goal for the atlas is to complete it and then "uncomplete" the shitty ones, right? or just complete all 125 for bonus map upgrade chance? What's the point of uncompleting?

What do you guys use your chance orbs on? I see the new resist implicit boots are loot filtered specially. I am assuming they are a desireable crafting base at a certain ilvl?
>>
>>162118759
Uncompleting is to block shitty layouts yes. Can start blocking maps above 100/125 so you still get the bonus.

Chance orbs are solely for sorcerers boots, it's by far the most expensive unique that is still chance able.

Resist boots can be nice but the implicit is overwritten by lab enchants which are generally better. There are a bunch of other new bases you should check out, some of them are quite nice.
>>
>>162118759
don't bother completing the shitty maps to begin with, uncompleting them is expensive. If you want a map on the other side of them just buy it. the map upgrade bonus is really nice but after about 110% it's not really worth any additional chance which means you can funnel most red tiers into the best layouts.

when a map drops, the game determines the tier of map (including the upgrade chance) and then determines which layout within that tier. If you only have one map completed in that tier (like Gorge) then every map drop in that tier (T13) will be that layout.

Unless another map of that tier is adjacent to the map you're on and also enters the pool of possibilities. But that's still a 50% chance of your favorite layout instead of 1/6 or however many total layouts of that tier there are.
>>
>>162118759
Just complete the entire thing, there's no real impact on your gameplay between a full completed atlas and a nitpicked atlas.
>>
>>162118759
two-tone boots are nice for leveling gear but you should move away from them eventually and get your resists somewhere else.

sorcerer boots are the only things really worth your time to chance unless you're doing SSF or have a 6L with astronomically rare socket colors and you want the unique it can chance into. Maybe also try for a Headhunter if you use Zana to turn on the right League.

alright then,

>It performs well below most builds at all levels in terms of DPS
simply untrue, but you provide no numbers so it's kinda pointless to dispute such a claim

>it requires constant double casts to setup the combo
double casting is rarely ever an issue if you consider number of actions, 1 cast of Contagion + 1 cast of ED being enough to clear several packs, which is a lot more economical/efficient than 1 cast (echoed) per pack

the only downside is you lack immediate damage, but when you run an enhanced temp chains blasphemy, you have much more freedom of action than most other spellcasters

>the Occultist passive Profane Bloom doesn't propagate Contagion before destroying the monster
not relevant to the skill itself really, skills should be compared with each other, not their interaction with a given ascendancy, besides scaling chaos/aoe damage which is a given in an ED tree is beneficial to Profane Bloom explosions

>you're very limited when it comes to general skill tree passives for damage compared to other skills
I mean, what? things ED scales off of: chaos damage, damage over time, spell damage, projectile damage

highlight all 4 and point me out to an area of the tree that lacks in those, besides the marauder area (a class who conveniently can go ED too with Berserker's 40% more damage double dipping on poison)

even Champion ED is a not necessarily retarded idea, try making a Champion Flameblast and see how that goes for you, saying you're limited in terms of tree pathing for ED is nonsensical

Essence Drain applies a Degen based off the initial hit. So Projectile Damage scales the projectile's initial hit, which scales the Degen, which is propagated by Contagion.
So yes.

So I'm fairly new to the game, want to make a build around that new elemental claw GGG released in the hardcore League. I played around on Standard a bit, thinking of running this build

http://poeplanner.com/AAQAAMkmAABiRXyXl_v1tDjlGYw2VUth4iaVFr9UR6a-nsRd8g5IEZYHHpUu8NVJUX_GkyfviPk3189JsZOVrTMZ12wLIvRtGQj0wFRqQ5f0UlM9X5eVTLMEB4PbVcYfAjbF2CSnCOvuhTKdrhpsNukkqhZv42rkItWm7TyaO5_f73yCmzwF4XOiAJrgRZ1TUsHFiEKCHtsLHNy4kyj6gsf56EGHtz7-Cti98kU64aZXTeP-jzWSBLPwH_fB-aRw1EyDdIGLDlq5kUeAswAAAAAA

Idea is I'll have a lot of mana/ES from the int you stack from the claw so going EB/MoM getting most of the damage from just stacking INT and a few ele damage nodes. Going Trickster for the added ES/Mana to make EB/MoM stronger, and picking up Swift Killer once I can finally do Uber Lab. Going to run Herald of Thunder/Arctic Armor and Blasphemy either Warlords for Life/Mana sustain or Conductivity for extra lightning pen. This tanky enough for HC?
>>
>>162123913
Power creep. Notice how no one plays deadeye/archers from that graph earlier. Pushed into life most of the time when life is shit and they have shit life nodes and STR for that additional life. Doesn't mean melee is good though. Only cast melee like AW or EQ or meme flurry.
>>
>>162124120
I'm almost positive the people who like fast clearing are twitch autists and meta building fags because ARPGs would be boring to watch otherwise and the rest want to follow a meta build because there's a discernable meta which wouldn't be the case if everything was viable and more balanced relative to the obvious power creep.
>>
>>162124170
tanky enough to level to 100 if you apply yourself? probably

tanky enough to do endgame content and the higher tier maps? no

keep runing that. even if the char doesnt pan out shaper-capable, you may still something to build a currency pool with, in addition to learning the game

its a good idea to never plan for 123-point builds, but that means you should plan for something around 100-110.

That's not what "clear speed meta" refers to.

"Clear speed meta" is the idea that you reach so much damage you one-shot everything and any additional overkill is pointless so you're better off getting more attack speed/movement speed so you can shield charge faster. The viability of your build is a direct correlation of your ability to move fast.

Breaches are lot more about DPS+Defense meta than "clear speed" meta, although obviously a build with good dps doesn't generally lack clear speed either. The viability of your build is a direct correlation of how much punishment you can take and how much punishment you can dish out NOT your ability to move fast.

It's very similar to Beyond league in the sense that you need to stand your ground inside a Breach to maximize returns, not move at sonic speed with 300% increased attack speed shield charge/whirling blades CoC Discharge.

So no, the league doesn't incentivize "clear speed meta". Take a look at the complaints the league is getting from players on the forums, it all comes from shitcrows running tabula off-screening builds that are upset they can't handle the heat of Breaches.
>>
>25% increased attack speed if you haven't killed recently

>>
>>162126579
What's your point? They do it with the idea that the small percentage of the playerbase they hookup will provide enough income to sustain the model for everyone. Doesn't change the fact that f2p players are dead weight and a load on the servers which provides no income, correct? Do you think servers just have infinite capacity or come from some magical fairyland where they grow on trees?
>>
what are some good unique weps for pizza stix
>>
>>162126854
Breach is clear speed meta whether you like it or not. You don't choose to take the time to engage content it's fucking thrown in your face and Breaches as you say correctly are about DPS and Defense but there's absolutely no builds in the game which prioritize defense over DPS even in hardcore because DPS like this exist. Get swarmed oops your defense is nothing. Your best defense in Breach is your offense to kill as many fucking things before they hit you. You cannot 'tank' any of that shit.

>>
>>162127173
Good DPS will always be a metric of a good build, this has nothing to do with GGG. Kill shit before it kills you is a valid strategy, simple enough. It's not clear speed meta because you don't actually have to clear *fast* just clear consistently enough to not get overwhelmed.

There is also a place for tanky builds with moderate DPS in breaches. An unkillable Aegis Gladiator can probably handle the nastiest of Breaches without breaking a sweat and get rewarded for it with experience and drops. The same couldn't be said for Essence league for example, which only featured boring hp sponge rares and where building tanky was a pointless endeavor.
>>

Do you think a game with 3k average online players will get the same kind of attention, coverage, and traction than a player with 20k average online?

You realize if there weren't so many f2p players freeloading and doing absolutely nothing positive for the game's success, GGG could afford to increase drop rates and people would become less reliant on trading? The reason drops are so shitty is to accommodate the large chunk of players who pay nothing, do nothing, except be a strain on the servers. Christ, a handful of flippers or dedicated traders is probably a lot more healthy for the economy than an army of f2p peons farming Dried Lake.

Then why didn't they second guess themselves for anything else and buff melee abilities or fix anything else?

>taunt is abused easily
But spamming flasks isn't? Abusing block isn't? What the fuck is the point of abusing when it's a game mechanic that's practically designed to be abused? Aren't you abusing a certain game mechanic when you make a build around it? In fact fucking Duelist has a whole Ascendancy for taunt - the only justified thing was like Decoy Totem getting a cooldown because anyone could use it but core classes are fucking stupid that they can't taunt anymore.

Essences clogged up a whole page.
Div cards clog up a whole page and you admit it, them being not valuable doesn't detract for you having to spend a whole page for them or the value of the page at all when you only have four.

Yes, because GGG is too retarded to make a good AI. Taunt Totem has worked a specific way since Beta and has never been considered "abuse."
But suddenly on a whim after releasing a new boss people are using presently available means of mitigation that are working too well because of coders' ineptitude, it's abuse.
And on top of this, it is such a glaring issue that it has to be "fixed" mid-League when people have invested considering time, money, and effort into this great setup are left high and dry with not even a respec for their troubles of "finding this extreme exploit for Grinding Gear Games."

And mind, outside server crashing exploits, there hasn't been a Mid-league Skill(s) change ever. Fucking Snapshotting was removed between Leagues.

It's not even nerfed in reality, people just keep saying it's gutted. Only content like shaper/8-mod corrupted guardians took a hit, and a small one at that.

Most of top players run with a guardian bitch which provide them extra armour and evasion, which conveniently allows them to go full ES and disregard their own defenses. Maybe you would know this if you didn't spend your time filling your 300 stash tabs with Dried Lake drops, retard.

It's not nearly as viable for shaper et al anymore, but it seems like it would be perfectly fine for breeches since you'll get tons of flask charges just from killing shit.

Say, can you wind up a BV then succ things in with vaal cyclone? Might actually be a pretty good breach farmer.

Guess all those ES characters mean they're armour/evasion based too because of ar/es and ev/es armours.

Having a guardian bitch isn't a build retard. People still go full ES regardless and disregard armour, evasion and even endurance charges.

meanwhile ES based can just scale ES (better) and more efficiently because of the tree

You're the one baiting/being ignorant. An 78/78 block Aegis build is a lot more durable than a build stacking blue life and nothing else, save for straight up elemental one-shots you should avoid if you're not retarded.

The primary tankiness of a blue life build lies in the ability to leech back damage with VP. VP is the culprit, it's not that blue life is magically better than red life just because you can get a higher buffer. As mentioned above, remove VP and CI isn't anything special but a higher buffer without any real sustain.

CI's dominance is a byproduct of VP existing, it's not that stacking blue life is inherently better than armour, or evasion, that's an extremely simplistic or should I say reddistic way of considering the picture.

Feel free to buy gear off poe.trade and feel good about your blue life stacking build though, because layering defenses is so much more boring than adding another 1k es off a gear upgrade :^)

Would be different if you could pick what instance of town you want using a TP portal

But you can't
It'll load fast in an empty town, but if the town has 10 people? Fucking disaster

Thanks senpai, at what point should I switch over? after I get BM EO and EE?

Around level 50+ desu

>>162139441
elemental overload

EA works not because it has humongous base damage, but because how you can leverage curses, EE, and burn with it

EE is obligatory. EO too since its so fucking cheap to use

curses, at least flammability is too

>>162139732
i always spec into EA at around the start of merciless. once you have EE, EO and room in your geaer to inflict a curse with split arrow or frenzy (and trigger EE with it as well)

to be honestly frank with you family, breach is a pretty decent league. probably the best in over two years
>>
i aint complaining catfag

it doesn't seem as laggy as pernadus was

spawns too much shit for the game to handle, but at least it doesn't involve filling up ten stash tabs with random trash
in theory it's probably the least shit challenge league with some tuning of the spawns
>>
>>162140181
It really is. Good risk, good reward, and some pretty tough endgame content. Plus you get to mindlessly slaughter endless packs which is fantastic.

You can't kill mobs if you're using ancestral bond since you're not dealing damage.
>>
>>162145078
pretty much
>>
>>162145078
yes
>>
>>162145078
Why warlord's and not poacher's? The sheer amount of low damage hits will likely make the flat gain from the latter overtake 2% leech.
