If you close your eyes, you can make the dick as dark as you want. Literally and figuratively.

Haven't seen a streamer recommending Hexblast Ignite Anything yet. So, that either means I'm a genius or an idiot.

You are not, especially since Assassin got a bunch of move speed removed.

What amount of self hatred would be required to watch this?

In general, I agree with you. However, there is no shortage of fast screen clearing builds that don't suffer from a slow dps skill.

No doubt. The build was otherwise powerful, great dps and sustain. My rule of thumb is that my main dps skill should have an activation(cast, attack, whatever) time of at most a third of a second. My recollection is that build felt somewhat like playing in slow motion.

How was your attack speed? When I tried BA, it felt slow.

Heirophant totems died for this.

Self cast bf bb sucks too. You can get clear with just bf but I was never a fan of the delay on the skill. Coverage sucks too until you go woke.

I thought people were disappointed with Crackling Lance in a manner(mechanically) that a decent dps boost wouldn't fix?

You can play it that way, sure. Blasphemy curse works as well. Worried about it reaching far enough? 40% from tree 60% from Windshriek 80% from Blashpemy support 60% from Elementalist(Trickster is viable too, but no AoE) 60% from alt quality inc AoE support You just doubled the radius on...

Mathil played one recently during Flashback. What sounds clunky specifically?

Guam can't tip over, the moon's gravity prevents that.

It's a hit, thus it can ignite. That said, scaling explode chest's dot seems weird. What are you hoping to do specifically?

Hopefully you left a like, comment, and subscribe for each one. Ring that bell, bitch.

@ronne note the phrasing on the cobra lash changes. It won't help poison.

I'd be very surprised if you could beat yourself to death via phys reflect as a poison character. Maybe ignite. They changed the conversion because Chris mandated 40 changes.

No, this sounds like you're still thinking of poison as double dipping. No modifiers are applied before base hit damage is calculated.

Been a while since a did a poison build but I want to say that doesn't matter. Phys and chaos are equal inputs for poison, which then becomes 100% chaos damage, and then all that chaos scaling applies equally anyway. Quick experiment with blade vortex, poison support, and pathfinder in pob...

What always kills fireball builds for me: it requires 2 non-damage support gems to clear well(GMP and fork or chain or pierce). Firestorm requires maybe one support for good clear? I haven't looked at it much, but I was thinking spell cascade is all it needs. @Thregin PoB updated for 3.13...

Why does conversion matter if you're playing it as poison?

I'm going to try it as my starter unless someone pokes some holes in it. The raw EHP and sustain looks great, but the mitigation(phys resist, block, dodge, evasion, armor) aren't that good. I didn't see a point to Doomsday if I wasn't self cast cursing packs. On bosses, even with a max doom...

The amount of cast speed on Raider isn't unique. Movement, maybe(I think Pathfinder can match it), but Trickster can come close or beat it depending on how you count frenzy charges and Swift Killer. My point being that Penance Brand Raider doesn't actually open up anything new.

@Thregin Played around with Hexblast, Blasphemy support, and Vixen's Entrapment last night in game. The curse rework is full of all kinds of clunk. I think the only way to get smooth clear is to ignore GGG's intended curse->Hexblast every pack and go with a Blasphemy supported curse. With...

DoT builds are in a pretty good place these days. Bleed, poison, chaos, burn, ignite, cold, all of it really. Ignite really benefits from medium clusters however, that might have been where your scaling fell off.

Didn't the Razorback dump their core to deal with the torpedo? How the fuck are they going anywhere?

Who's saying that?

I have no problem with what the patch notes *ACTUALLY* say. They mis-hyped the ascendancy and skill changes though.

Pseudo SSF is what I usually do. I only trade when I know getting the item I want by myself is not feasible(3+ T2 affix rare, really rare uniques, etc) or will try my patience more than trading will(6L items).

Was hoping for a bigger buff to Crackling Lance. I wanted a viable lightning spell for Archmage Ignite. Penance Brand might still work with Holy Conquest, but it's not going to clear like other ignite builds could. So, WOrb gained 0.1s for every channel. I doubt that's enough, you need a lot...

Sure, why not?

56% increased cast speed from 180% increased effect of Onslaught. Nerfed Trickster would have 51% increased cast speed from passives. That's ignoring the frenzy charges from Swift Killer. WOrb, unless they change something with the skill today, likely only works as self-curse Occultist. The...

Attack speed? It lost 15%. Would have preferred those boots got nerfed and the range dialed in. It hit like a wet noodle far too often.

Why not 10?

The wailing and gnashing of teeth, like music to the ears. When was the last time GGG gave a good buttfucking to the meta? Easily already the best league in a while. Does it help that the built I plan on starting(TR pathfinder) only got -20% AE, -30% chaos damage, and 15% more chaos damage...

Assassin's still a glass cannon! For the amount of flask effectiveness Pathfinders usually get, 6% seems like nothing. Especially if you pair it with Indigon and an enduring mana flask. I'm not sure the ICD change on crit flask charges will mean much. Let's say you have 4 flasks that you...

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3008762 Assassin lost 34% move speed and some defense. Trickster ES/Evasion looks kinda meh. I was expecting Pathfinder to get nuked. Not much else happened.

Are minions back to where they were before Blight?

Do you think they could manage that without a severe performance hit?
