    At 8 molten strike meatballs, the 2 extra volcanic fissure meatballs are equal. Then MS scales harder. I'd say the biggest downside to volcanic fissure is no swords or claws. Travel time on the fissure and meatballs ain't great either.

    They wouldn't end the league, it would ruin the exciting and highly competitive boss kill race. The economy has been fucked by massive inflation before. Heist could have been renamed Currency Devaluation. I doubt they'll do anything that drastic but it eyerolling at this point how often...

    You can't scale AE, that affects how far they bounce. Slower proj speed is usually the only way bunch them up better.

    Have you played around with it? I'm not sure how to model the return hits on molten strike. They look to bounce in place, but I quite commonly get different stacks of self poison for the first and second bounces. This is on a stationary target. That said, if vengeant cascade just makes the...

    Anthropomorphized Narcolepsy's testing methodology is "look, it returns from hydrosphere! and my dps went up". Herald of Agony is the poor man's testing setup. It's a pain in the ass to setup, but I suggest getting a self poison character in standard. You have to work out the hijinks of...

    I think he's full of shit. Guess I'll have to watch 22 minutes of Jousis at home to figure out what his secret tech is. I can get FB projectiles to return, can't get ANY of them to register a self poison. I'm pretty sure Lightning Strike and Frost Blades have that "if hit by the melee attack...

    Icicle Mines I doubt. The projectiles are fire all at once, so are subject to shotgunning rules. I tested EoW and Nimis last league. It was not consistent. Since it's a dissipating projectile, you need to give it a ton of proj speed so that it end of flights before dissipating. The problem...

    Yeah, but why settle for just doubling your dps(remember, only one returning projectile can hit) when you go much further with a few other skills?

    You could probably do it with jugg. No eternal damnation makes it less appealing though. I agree with fissure being so similar. Almost offensively so.

    I tested it a little bit myself. It looks like it makes them hop in place? I'm not sure exactly, you definitely get more hits on the extra bounce but it's not all of them. So, it won't be easy to model. Molten Strike, Volcanic Fissure, or Splitting Steel, trying to decide which to reroll to...

    Lol, vengeant cascade makes meatballs return TO the target hit by the attack. That's easily triple single target. League mechanic might suck but abusing vengeant cascade is going to carry hard.

    Just got to act 5, so maybe this gets better later. League mechanic is hot garbage. If I don't have a crucible tree to level(and this is often the case), why would I stick my hands in the forge? Just to see what trees are possible on shit items? How's that any different than picking up and...

    An item of that power level should be rarer or more expensive. Maybe reddit being reddit is amplifying it, but the core principle is sound. Broken clock yadda yadda. It took them multiple leagues to nerf Molten Shell such that it was somewhat of a surprise. It took them one league to nerf...

    I'd say Covenant is equal in power(and somehow not nerfed?) and popularity. So if you want to prepare for the worst, use that as a comparison.

    If I take a look back at my "starter" version last league, it did ~100k ignite dps. It's total dps was ~11.5M. If I add those two nodes, it gains ~250k ignite dps, or ~2.1% more dps. You might need to tailor the build more towards that passive. I haven't looked at crucible passives, I don't...

    Heatshiver and Ignite doesn't seem like a worthwhile combination. Ignite builds typically don't scale the initial hit, making it hard to reliably freeze.

    Getting close to 50M on a 5L Splitting Steel with Vengeant Cascade. This build violates a few of my requirements for a starter(not league starter) but those numbers are ridiculous even if you do have to pay 1 div for a few slots. Still can't believe the reaction to Nimis was to just give it...

    There's lots of useless masteries. They even got rid of some very useful masteries, like the two lightning masteries for +1 chain or lucky non-crit, and replaced them with garbage or ok masteries. The issue here is that they released a mastery without 5 minutes of thought. It looks bad when...
