    Picked up a 21 Dominating Blow and 21 Herald of Purity last night, and it makes a huge difference in terms of damage. Bosses are melting up to T9 and Delve 140 so far, hopefully this weekend I can push red maps and a lot deeper. View Profile - Path of Exile - JamesVZ

    Were you Alliance? Windfury was definitely hard to keep aggro against, and I never got that shit in the tank group.

    You could stance dance all of Magmadar's fears, but they weren't telegraphed at all before boss mods. Nefarion's fear was telegraphed, but on a 25 second cooldown so he could use it before Berserker Rage was off cooldown.

    Going full Prot was only statistically a tanking loss if you don't understand statistics. MS never did more threat than Shield Slam, and HS spam is a terrible way to manage your rage->threat output especially in Vanilla when rage actually had to be managed. The only reason to not go full Prot...

    AQ40 and Naxx had Shield Slam as the 31 point for sure, can't remember when that was added. Prot was only truly garbage in the first few patches, but even then it was a much better tank than Arms.

    If you were an offtank or only tanked in 5 mans, that was a perfectly acceptable build. Main tanks have always been Protection, however.

    If you didn't go x/x/31-34 (depending) in Prot as a main tank in vanilla, you were retarded.

    Nah this shit is just like Game of Thrones, the people trying to do right are the first ones to die. I bet Darlene stays alive for quite some time. A+ season 2, can't wait for season 3.

    Would be way too expensive to finish that craft out, you might as well reroll it. EDIT: Also, those mods and that base don't jive very well. Maybe if it was lightning damage or on a Coral ring you could get an ex, but I'm not aware of any ES based melee characters that utilize fire conversion.

    Ripped an Arc Totem Heirophant this weekend, but I was able to put together about 150c towards another Dominating Blow build, this time with Grip of the Council and Soul Taker. I have high hopes for it, really think this build will do some damage. Having trouble deciding if I want to go for a...

    I think they stated elsewhere that sulphite would remain character bound because it's important that the character itself can farm the sulphite needed for any given depth.

    If you don't want to play totems as a Heirophant, you might as well re-roll.

    Freezing Pulse is supposed to be pretty good too I think?

    Zana's Bloodlines/Nemesis never gave more magic/rare mobs I'm pretty sure. EDIT: Nm, it should give more magic mobs regardless. How can you tell you didn't get more magic mobs?

    Alch and go is a pretty good method and great for casual play. You can min/max it quite a bit, though.

    Sure, but this is not optimized at all, mostly because I'm broke as shit and there hasn't been anything hard yet: View Profile - Path of Exile - JamesVZ

    T15 is a LOT easier than T16, I'd imagine you can do most if not all the T15 bosses.

    Gonna die a lot in higher tier maps and on higher end bosses, but if you're just shooting for 100 you can skip those. I'd be surprised if this character could take any of the Guardians in 6 portals. Crit low-life is where you need to take this character to drop Guardians, but that's gonna be...

    Pretty happy with Facebreakers Dominating Blow as a Guardian, btw. Shit is pretty bonkers, no idea why more people aren't playing this.

    Here, play around with this build and tell me what you think: I have all that gear on Standard and could probably put something together like that very easily. I don't consider it to be optimized by any stretch of the imagination, but it still has Dominating Blow putting out 100k dps by...

    I dunno, we'll see how end game boss damage goes, but I bet you can pump it pretty fuckin high.

    I don't think this will be a big deal tbh, with increased duration eventually I get to insta-rape numbers. Might take a few to get there, but it gets there. The real bitch I've found so far is when something needs to die *now* and my fuckwads are beating off in the corner with some piece of...

    Very useful so far, they clear out entire Delve paths while I run ahead of the cart barely attacking anything.

    Depends on what you're talking about, ages ago freeze proliferation was the bee's knees because you could proliferate a freezing trap's full duration on a white mob to a unique boss. They nerfed the shit out of that. I just got back in from France and spent yesterday slowly leveling up a...

    'Fair' is however you define it, and you're just describing a seniority system. DKP is an abstraction of character value that removes consideration of any contribution that character might make to the guild other than killing a dragon. DKP systems which attempt to include non-dragon kills in...

    This game is pretty fun, I recommend a download and play through, but I wouldn't spend more than 20 bucks on it right now, not enough content. The different scenarios are pretty awesome, but I hope they move away from it so I can spend days on a single city.

    I remember reading Aftathott's dissertation on DKP back in vanilla before it became hugely popular. Thought it was retarded, thankfully I was never proven wrong.

    No but you can zone in at 46 and die a bunch of times and then get rezzed back in at 45.

    Shoot there was only like 50 Japs total on our server, but in high level PvP it was really only us vs them for a long time and they were fucking hardcore. We lost a few characters worth of gear to them, they lost a few to us. I never got how they did it, we had people all over the world...
