Too bad that game have spells, elemental damage, dot's, chaos damage with only reliable defence being ranged(as in not getting hit) and having giant life\es pool. Everything else is luck based shit.

>>182967918
You know you are allowed to combine defenses, right? Like, nobody says a tanky character is someone with 30k armour and nothing else unless you're a meme retard like Zeno

Armour protects you against swarm of small physical hits
Physical resistance protects you against big physical hits
Avoidance, crit reduction protects you against hits
Spell block, +max resistance protects you against elemental damage

Spoiler: you're not limited to one of them only

The tankiest characters in game now that VP+CI is gone are probably Guardians/Gladiator with Grace+IR
>>
>>182967918
Armor does its job reliably, which is protect you from lots of small hits. The same can't be said for evasion and dodge.

Help /poeg/

How, as a regular Joe, am i supposed to even get my last 2 ascendancy points? hum? With 5K life Izaro one-shot me be it in range or in melee (I had the two handed mace version last night), so I can somewhat dodge in the first two fights, but always die in the last one when your mobility is severely hindered by all the shitty traps everywhere.

Seriously, how do I get good?

nigga, 5k ain't low. I've done Izaro with so little life his default attack stunned me and chunked me for most of my life.
>two handed mace version
Just dodge the slam. Stand in his face, and leap slam through him when he goes raises to slam. It's super easy compared to Sword Izaro and his magical Sword Wave of Bullshit hitbox.

Yeah, clarifying: I died three times at Merciless lab, so I'm wondering how a shitter like me would ever be able to do Uber lab

Dynamic resolution is hilarious and sad at the same time. If this is their solution for fps spikes then they must be desperate.

It also gives me migraine.
>>
>>182982947
The idea behind it is good, but it's too extreme currently. A better idea would have been to optimize their particle effects so lag becomes far less prevalent.
>>
>>182982947
Dynamic Resolution works fine in my Skyrim mods. GGG just needs to stop being retarded and fine tune it.
>>
>>182982947
>If this is their solution for fps spikes then they must be desperate.
Getting a 2017 game to work on a 2003 engine is hard, this is a last ditch effort. They're postponing revamping the engine as much as they can, bullshitting with experimental multithreading and dynamic resolutions, and in the end it's going to hurt them. I hope they're smart with their money and spend their 3.0 revenue on behind-the-scenes actual work.
>>
>>182983110
I had always understood it like this, only particle effects would get lower resolutions. This is good because it's not the shit zombie animations that are tanking fps, but the trillions of particles on screen. Also a big sea of shit looks like a big sea of shit, no matter how good the resolution is.

You're wasting your time.

You're most likely going to look at the skill tree and get excited and make a 123 points build and then make your first character, probably in a shitter league and then kill yourself after the first 10 levels then come back here asking what you did wrong expecting us to spoonfeed you.

We'll tell you to fuck off and read the OP and use google like the rest of us, you will, you'll make a new build and try something new. You'll get to level 30 or something, get bored and ask when does the game get fun. You'll eventually link your first items in the thread asking questions like how to determine the price, we'll tell you to read the OP and fuck off again. You'll say "wah wah haters from hardcore" and continue playing, you'll hit level 60 and realize this game is just a grind so you can start another grind, you'll complain about this here and we'll say "it's a game made by GRINDING GEAR GAMES you faggot", a game in which you grind for gear.

Enjoy, you fucking retard. Get the fuck out of our general.

I just read this : "Accuracy measures the chance for an attack to hit. Accuracy-dependent attacks make a second accuracy check to confirm the critical strike. If the check fails only a normal hit is dealt. Thus accuracy can play an important role in quantity of critical strikes."
What the fuck does that mean? It checks the accuracy a second time for the crit? So for example i have 95% chance to crit and 5% chance to hit. I hit by miracle. I must go through 5% chance to hit AGAIN to check the 95% crit chance? What happen with 100% crit then (trypanon, assassin curse)? Am i retarded?

You HC types with the mentality of "it's not HC so why care" know it's still demotivating to die right? It doesn't feel good to fail at content.

The difference is in SC you aren't gambling huge amounts of play time on failure. HC is great I enjoy dabbling in it, but it really depends on having the spare time to re-roll a character upon failure if you want to experience content or hit challenges.

Need a cold one because afaik the only one in the game atm is granted by a hard to get unique and it's just a lightning warp reskin.

You just surf on a piece of ice until you hit an enemy. Has an autopierce arming distance like ice spear, but can pierce afterwards and allow you to continue, or chain and fuck you because it takes you backwards.
Hilarious when enemies use it on chain maps.

Something stupid like that. Maybe you teleport to the projectiles termination point if the tech to surf projectiles isn't in the game.

Post ideas for cold channeling skills

Spell: The targeted area will have ice spikes constantly protruding from the ground and can cause chill and bleed damage over time. Cannot freeze. The area that you channel in is about the size of a level one contagion, and will expand upon leveling the gem and area modifiers.
>>
>>183023532
the skill has innate piercing so its probably bugged giving the 100% pierce tag to every projectile thing you link it with using cwc

Tsunami: A wave of chill water expands from you in a randomized AoE (it expands and recoils in waves, mimicking how large water waves function).

Well okay then. Forgo Attack Speed.
>>
>>183038746
Nah, you need both. The skill works in an odd, unintuitive way. Movement speed increases speed in which the skill charges, while attack speed increases the density of the damage dealing AoE anime after-images you leave behind. The more attack speed, the more these AoEs overlap, for better single-target.

>>183053029
spectres are a real pain, they're missing some serious quality of life and they aren't persistent between sessions, so you'll need to hunt down the particular mobs that you've speced for every time you want to play.

if you want to play a summoner and don't care for SRS, then golems are your best bet. five flame golems as a necromancer will tackle any content you throw at them, though it is a gear-dependent build

here's a showcase

it's a pain to collect the particular spectres you want
he's using a very expensive weapon
he's relying on poison for damage, which is going to be nerfed and reworked in about two weeks
>>
>>183055064
>it's a pain to collect the particular spectres you want

yeah I figured theres ones you definitely want but he listed that ANY "work" so I wasnt super concerned at the moment

>he's using a very expensive weapon

expensive as in quite a farm cause im not opposed to working for what I need I just wanna be a summoner

>he's relying on poison for damage, which is going to be nerfed and reworked in about two weeks

ugh seriously? Reworked as in this build would be insanely nerfed?

I just wanna be a fucking summoner and it seems this game doesnt give a fuck about people who want that
>>
>>183055064
>>183055304
and I should mention by summoner I mean more necromancy than flame golems like you linked, I LOVE necromancy in vidya and tabletop RPS its my go to build in anything
>>
>>183053029
Either is fine but also equally painful. Specters are a pain to manage : you have to randomly find them in a high level map, or raise them in a low level area then desecrate once in a map to get the high level version, very few are actually viable. Zombies are annoying too : they can be fragile if you're not using mon'tregul's, their leash is very short which makles directing them/clearing maps a pain and they're also extremely slow, baron bulds are fun though. Golem builds are expensive to get rolling and their AI isn't much better. SRS is the best since it runs with its own AI : it keeps attacking stuff until it dies and it has no leash.
>>
>>183055442
I understand from looking around that they can be annoying and it seems summons kinda suck until I become necromancer but that's what I wanna do which is why im trying to ask what's the best of those, SRS isn't what I wanna play and golems I don't really want to either, a golem sidekick or whatever sure but I mainly wanna be using zombies or skeletons or spirits or a combination.
>>
>>183055691
Try specters + zombies first then, the more the merrier. Use your spectres for damage and keep your zombies as meatshields. Flame sentinels are the ones I find most useful for clearing.

this guy seems to be doing alright with a conventional necromancer, offensive zombies + defensive spectres. it's non-poison, so it should be somewhat futureproof. however it's got a tiny HP pool so don't even think about building it in hardcore. other than that, seems right up your alley

i'm pretty unexcited for 3.0 but what's wrong with lab and sunder?

also the only fun es builds are unplayable after 3.0
>>
>>183060436
sunder is a skill that literally every melee character uses to get up to maps and its not even a melee skill, so much for build diversity
Literally every single person in the beta was using sunder if they went melee.
Lab is a cancerous piece of trash that only brought power creep and suffering.
Every time I have to do lab on a new character I would rather put a bullet in my head.
Most of the community agrees that lab is bad.

You act like maps arnt a tedious piece of cancer as well. Being expected to fully explore a zone and clear it is unfun, this is one thing D3 gets right with rifts.

So if I say that D3 manages to do one thing better than PoE im some fucking blizzard shit gobbler? I havent played the game in years, but its true that being able to ignore mobs and still progress is better design than running through countless deadends while backtracking and looking for mobs that you missed. Theres a fucking reason all people run is Mesa/Strand/Atoll.

Full clearing maps is complete fucking cancer, Maelstrom of Chaos was a far better idea than mapping.
>>
>>183060662
The issue doesn't come exclusively from sunder being good, but the AoE nerf being so brutal that it made EQ dogshit, lacerate worse than it already was and cyclone complete and utter garbage. It's the only thing left if you want to level a "melee" character along with frost blades.
>>
>>183061574
He isn't exactly wrong though.
After all these years there is nothing special about maps or end-game, loot is shit, and you can just trade for items, and then you have your character geared up, so what?
3.0 is not going to bring anything extraordinary either, Pantheon is trash, bunch of things are nerfed to hell etc
Then again, I'm burned the fuck out on this crappy game, and how the devs are incompetent at balance and turned the MTXs into a scamfest. Just hard to move on ;_;

Maps are by no means perfect but theyre definitely one of the better parts of PoE.

Until recently I was pretty sceptical towards Solo (SSF) leagues and events, because I was the under the (mainstream) impression that partying and trading is the crucial and most important part of the PoE. Also, as a semi-casual player, I mostly played SC leagues.

Then it happened - in the recent Mayhem 2week event I played HC solo. There I have realized alot about PoE and evaluate what makes me fell in love PoE in the first place. The 20-ish hours of HC Solo which I played under Mayhem made me actually think about stuff and why this is such a "game changer" and kind of "rebirth" of my love for PoE.

Without a support you safely have 10k ES with very bad gear and around 13k ES with good gear
If you get yourself a support that goes up to 15-16k ES
If you get yourself a headhunter it can go all the way up to 18k-20k due to the bonuses you get
I played an ES build this league and with relatively average gear I had 13k ES without a guardian and without a headhunter running a lvl 18 discipline so shut the fuck up about "le 15k ES is unrealistic"

Considering that SSF requires 10x more grinding to get the items you want it's not the most casual way to play the game by definition. Mayhem was easier to grind because of the insane amount of stuff you encounter.

it should NOT take that much grinding if you know what you are doing. ssf is about getting an easy-to-gear build up to red maps and then making a more sophisticated build with the shit you find there once you die or you get bored

trading gives you a way way more efficient path to gear up, but you still need to grind like a nigger for things that generate currency until you can flip or scam retards. if thats what scares you away from it -people trying to take advantage of you on vidya because you have a victim complex-, you got much bigger problems in your life than just overpaying a couple chaos

18k ES builds are overpowered because they cannot get one shotted by anything, they can facetank shaper, guardians uber atziri you name it because their health pools are too high for punishing one shot mechanics (shaper slam, atziri flameblast etc) to impact them.
A 9k life build would still get one shot whereas an ES build carries on without an issue,
>>
Haven't played in a year. What's meta now for solo HC builds?
>>
yea but the 9k life build has armor and evasion XD
>>
so now we switch from vaal spark to shaper farming because it fits your narrative better? keep moving those goalposts buddy

Shore is still the best map ever.
I'm convinced an intern at GGG messed up with the pack size on this one, and no one ever noticed.

Add to this an enjoyable layout, a sunny setting, an easy as fuck boss with a loot chest that can also be twinned, and lot of master spawn for some reason (probably the intern again)

Spacious maps with large open spaces always have more mob density simply because there's more room to spawn.

It's the best melee skill apart from Frostblades.

I haven't made a Sunder build, just some questions for it. It sounds as if the radius reduction from conc' effect doesn't affect Sunder's radius, but still increases the damage of Sunder. Does this mean increased radius (gem, tree etc) also don't affect the radius, only the damage of Sunder?

>>183136527
I find it funny how they mention the top-end of the damage scale, which implies that they're paying too much attention to the 1% and like always again, they're gonna fuck over anything pertaining to their focus simply because a minority with amazing gear is obliterating content.

wow my conversion trap build deals no damage what the fuck?

Everyone realized this when Chris openly stated that he thinks the only way to keep people interested in PoE is to release new 1-4 broken skills a patch and leave the other ones in the dust because "reworks simply do not generate HYPY like le epic NEU SKILS do ;)"

expect the lightning channeled skills to deal more damage on a 2link than Arc or Ball Lightning does on a 7link

>>183144593
It's worse than that and you know it. A skill cannot be namelock. It has to be able to either leech a fuckton or be a warchief/pizza totem or its not viable enough to survive bosses who do nothing but slam attacks that either oneshot or close to oneshot you. The skill also basically needs to clear as an inherent property of the ability or else you miss out on a multiplicative bonus and get absolutely fucking raped on damage, and also since they fucked AoE so if your ability wasn't clearing screens already it will never clear a screen now. Uh oh, they nerfed pierce too, so your skill needs to also have a 100% pierce chance (frostbolt) or it won't even fucking scratch the 30 body dense mobs that inhabit maps with proper sextants and whatnot. If your skill needs melee splash at all, it is fucking DoA. If your skill needs threshold jewels and isn't EK Nova, it's DoA because you're giving up a fuckton of jewel slot stats.

The list goes on.
>>
>>183144605
The Overkill is just a nice bonus that works well with huge, slow hits like Earthquake and trash mobs, since you instantly obliterate them anyway.
The main draw is the endless leech.

>Using VP when you already healing 45% max health per sec
Slayer is the superior form of leech
>>
does added flat damage apply to glove enchants if they are "attack with x on y"
>>
>>183145828
True, but SRS is still a problem that stems back to the original argument. SRS is good enough to do most content while other minions are so utterly fucking trash for one reason or another that you will struggle to do maps as quickly with 6l zombies than 4l SRS. And if at any point in the future they say "gee we should add a new minion support gem" or do anything other than directly buff skeletons/zombies/specters they have to quadruple check and go out of their way to make sure it doesn't make SRS more of a problem than it already is.
>>
>>183146181
Yes. If the Flat is either Global or Attacks.

>Heal for 45% of your health per second
>Get damage spiked for 90% of your health
>A second later you are at 55%
>Whoops wasn't fast enough to stop the next 90% health damage spike
>Get fucked nigger XD

while VP exists Slayer will never have good leech because they are forced to balance around instant leech which even 50% of your health per second cannot compete with

90% of the time when you die its to a massive spike of damage that occurs in less than a seocnd

What wonderful balance this game has
>>
>>183146302
Except that's exactly what happens to VP idiots running life-based too. They instantly pop like a balloon with no possibility of survival. The issue isn't the fact you're only leeching 45% of your HP/second. It's the issue that your effective HP pool is too low.
It happens to ES VP builds too, but far less due to their extreme effective HP pools. Have a game built where the only danger is an unavoidable one is terrible game design.

Slayers do not have to kill Izaro
He just dies by himself

How the FUCK do I get into this game anymore?
I last played back when it first launched and wasn't nearly as bloated with shit to memorize and plan out but the upcoming expansion has piqued my interest but there just seems to be so much more going on now
>>
>>183147060
It's still not that complicated beyond "know what these things are and what they do."
>>
>>183146961
That isn't what instakill means. You mean that a Slayer can whittle him down to phase 3 and then cut the phase 3 time down immensely with super cull. I assumed he meant the bullshit top lab runners do where they will literally end phase him the moment he becomes able to be hit.
>>
>>183147083
Alright well have people mathed out what will be good skills to build around in the new expansion yet? I'd like to plan a build for when it comes out
>>
The 'big announcement' tomorrow is a new cinematic trailer for 3.0 with release date of August 11th, landing on a Friday afternoon.
>>
>>183147093
That's clearly what he meant by "kill".
You kill him in phase 3, not in phase 1 and 2. If your DPS is correct, he'll be dead in a matter of seconds before he can attack, that's what people mean by "instakill", which might as well be an actual instakill.

I'm doing life flameblast totem, and my friends keep telling me carcass jack is bad. Should I just try to buy a decent rare instead
>>
>>183100718
40% belly, death's hand, kaom's roots, and GG rares.

I did the same with a level 90 tree and 1ex rares and still got 7.5k life and 1mil peak dps against shaper.

if you link a 20 qual Enduring cry with inc aoe and and a level 4 enhance in PoB it crashes when you mouse over the radius in the calcs tab

the atlas was a mistake

Killing shaper in under a minute damage
>>
you don't
>>
>>183151009

Spend 49 ex on the weapon.
>>
Shaped maps can remain easy, but they need to give some sort of incentive to actually fill out the atlas and run a lot of different maps. Like .5% item quantity for each map objective completed.
>>
you can do sunder with a 1c weapon up to t8s-t9s

get a wings of entropy or something similar

should be enough to farm currency for a good weapon then you can use prismatic eclipse or tempestuous steel offhand

also get belt of the deceiver, really nice damage boost

is there ANY advantage of going shield over dw these days?

why does my favorite fucking ability have to constantly be destroyed

>>183154965
Literally play any other skill with Hemophillia equipped. It's the same pack explosion, but now on an any attack.
>>
because ggg is retarded and blanket nerfs everything instead of the one problematic element, which in aoe's case is dying sun
>>
Infernal Blow is always going to be shit because its an ability that trades single target for the ability to scale with mob health to pack clear. Except everything in the game is so overtuned you could kill a pack in a single cast of spark or fireball or wild strike so its one defining point is completely, utterly and totally void
