The "Why are you still playing the skills?" trifecta MTX. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3151846

How so? Am I missing something? It looks like a glass cannon that still has to precurse everything while clearing.

Rhoas fucking you up in the mud flats was the only added difficulty. And that was likely the evasion rating nerf.

Holy Relic can definitely scale to a silly degree. It's kinda like dom blow. Dom blow clears faster with feeding frenzy, but you don't have the downside of trying to tickle your sentinels out of the boss. I wonder if Cyclone feels comparatively less sluggish now. SST *feels* like tossing a...

Anyone play a miner trapper? As in, you throw mines, the mines throw traps, which then casts the spell you want. It's sounds like a meme and I'm not fully convinced it's not yet. But you get to take advantage of some of the best mine and trap nodes at the same time, as well as double dipping...

Walk me through Rog, I can't spot items from him that are worthwhile. What are they walking back? Nevermind, read right over it...

Also probably means Firebat is never coming back to Hearthstone.

Oh, is this why Kripp is doing a week long PoE stream?

That's not fair. I doubt they have 3080's in NZ yet.

You use manastorm and put manabond in Mjolner. Use a foreboding mana flask to constantly proc manastorm. Not my idea, not interested in the idea as the build seems to have a weakness on bosses with flask charges.

Spectral Helix looks slow as fuck unless it scales heavily with projectile speed. If there was some way to totem/trap/mine/THROW it, that would be great. You can't even General's Cry it.

Tagging @Byr since he responded to me as well. By "straight up murdered", I mean exactly that. Spellslinger is mechanically unplayable in 99% of the current builds. I can think of one build, Mathil's Ele Hit wander from last league, where he used Spellslinger to cast Hydrosphere and Sniper's...

Is there discrete/functional/financial/whatever reason to distance yourself from a bank? Or is this mainly an ideological thing?

People shouldn't be pushed to play new builds because their favorites have been straight up murdered. Spellslinger complaints are valid. CoC likely too. Stole from Zizaran? He explicitly shares builds, how is that stealing? There's definitely stuff to be mad about in this patch and the...

If Quin quits PoE because of this patch, I'll buy the expensive supporter pack. I have no reason to believe he will, just saying the game will be better without him.

Atlas grind is indeed a problem. And that's not just a casual player sentiment. Where certain players decided "this is too much" might differ, but even streamers have been commonly griping about it since Maven passives were added.

A grand show of debauchery that ends up being a facade and all parties involved claim everyone else is trolling?

Considering the recent lawsuit, J. Allen Brack might be looking for a new job soon!

It was mainly meant as a flippant remark to encourage Lyrical to post. I don't know if this is the thread for diving into declining user base.

Mind posting your PoB? This is what I have so far. @ronne Let me know if you can get them above 3 casts per second.

Why wouldn't it? They showed it doing that in the video.

What was the replacement available for cold dots? Also, lots of people conveniently forgetting cold dot lost bonechill. All those words aren't making me feel better about my builds in pob. I update them and there's just too many holes to patch. SST has good DPS and ehp, but chugs mana. Traps...

Sure, but I don't want to be using that come endgame. The UI sucks for flask management. I want to pay attention to the fight. Also, charges.

I'll go first: 6L corrupted blood builds are dead. Mana cost multipliers increasing and Lifetap jumping to 300%(fucking why?!?!) killed the build. 4L was a waste of sockets. 6L with a decent amount of investment was just a thing of beauty. The mechanics of a global on-hit dot hadn't really...

PoB has been updated, cry over butchered DPS. Some builds, like SST, will have to spare some points for mana recovery. Could use lifetap, but damn, I don't want to pay 120+ life for something with 4.5 APS.

Spell totem is the obvious starter. Enjoy your 40% less cast speed. Also enjoy a fairly sizeable missing chunk of cast speed. It's not on Arcane Surge anymore, which Heirophant scales. Ctrl F "speed" in the patch notes, they were on a mission that a few people seem to have missed. Cast and...

You can do crit, but it feels like forcing it since you miss out on weapon and melee crit nodes. Maligaro gloves and crit supports might be options. Not a whole ton of inspiration on poe.ninja. Most are bleed glads, which I don't want to do because I want attack speed. So, it's either impale or...

I don't feign excitement. Lots of criticism in my posts in this thread.

Guilty! Am I missing anything of value?

Mana multiplier changes made 6L Corrupted Fever builds close to impossible. Kinda annoyed. Gladiator with Kinetic Blast and Corrupting Fever was a lot of fun last league. Having trouble scrounging up enough HP to cast Corrupting Fever and then also keep it refreshed since you likely need...

Why lightning strike? Frost Blades is pretty similar without the ground travel projectile faggotry. Don't say VLS. Your window to burst endgame bosses down is much smaller thanks to support gem nerfs.

Did he stick that in there to see if people even read his shit? Because I certainly skimmed right over that.

Kinda repost from reddit(sorry @Bubbles), but the guy that paid a hefty sum for that quicksilver flask of adrenaline must be pissed. Nothing new for someone to pay for a div card that makes you go "ok...?", but this was put in the game just last league. @AladainAF IIRC you have a second card...

Yep, it's a fair point. Lifetap support or full cold convert + inspiration are the only answers I got. I can handle being slower. I can handle having to manage mana *initially*. But if you're on endgame bosses, your survivability is fine, your dps is fine, but you're still sweating your...

Probably going to league start SST. Probably a mistake. Exsanguinate traps into Exsanguinate mines is my backup(can't stand the delay on traps, but mines are wimpy at first). Been practicing various forms of it the last few days, so I know it will work out. I'd love if someone could tell me...

I wonder what that "double-hit" comment refers to. Were shards hitting the main target that emitted them, kinda like old splitting steel and fork? Or is this some this-skill-only Hydrosphere nerf? If not the latter, Hydrosphere might double the single target damage for this skill. Either...

I don't understand the changes to Hypothermia and Bonechill. They basically aren't useful for cold DOT anymore, right?

Not that anyone here was using them in this fashion. But I bet it will cost GGG more in good faith currency, this is like the Perandus Coin change.

Tough to read even with the forewarning. Didn't see anything in there about flask charges gained being reduced in maps. Cinderswallow Urn is dead. Bottled Faith still looks pretty damn good(AURABOT FLASK). Staunching no longer removes bleeding, just provides 1s of immunity. Didn't see...

Where do you find it lacking? Single target?
