    No, they are scaling it with the new mirror rings like this shit: Since it lets you hit previously impossible levels of curse effect on yourself, thus scaling temp chains duration to insanity and letting you use veteran's awareness and similar shit. It does some cool shit like having a guard...

    Yea I saw some of this crap during my morning poop reading. I'm not convinced. Scaling self curse effect is just asking to get constantly oneshot by the various nemesis mobs that apply ass/snipers mark, or really anything that casts vulnerability etc. I'm sure it's fine with a HH setup, but...

    For those of you actually playing the game: I'm shocked by how good Sunder feels. I'm on a 4l and a Kaom's Primacy and just blasting maps up in to yellows without slowing down even a tiny bit. RT build with impales, not a ton else is very fancy, but it just has enough damage that it's working...

    They print some version of that sphinx in every standard set. 5-7cmc, big flying body, irrelevant attack trigger, completely unplayable. Sheoldred is worse than mindwrack demon, change my mind. Braids kinda cool but at 3 mana and no immediate value I suspect won't be good enough to do anything...

    Hmm this seems like so much more work than just using storm brand isn't it? It should work though provided Ralakesh gives you a power charge instantly like that on stopping and doesn't require you wait for the full second, but even if it's instant that sounds super annoying to build up to max...

    I don't see why new corpses wouldn't work, but again that's just BF+BB or DD etc. I'm totally fine with having a shock skill plus conduit for big single target, but everyone trying to automate the shocks is really in for a rough time.

    Path of Exile

    Alpha nerds are reporting that all non-hit forms of shock have a 4s cooldown for re-application now - skitterbots, necro corpses, prolifs from shocking yourself with maligaros, etc. Looks like they are really forcing you to apply shocks manually and play conduit similar to BF+BB.

    I doubt I'd even use brand recall anymore. Just play it like arma brand and cast new brands everywhere as needed. Only thing I'm not really sure on is actual shock effect on inquis. I really don't wanna go elementalist cause they suck, but I'm afraid inquis isn't gonna be hitting max shocks vs...

    I'm telling you, stormbrand in thunderfists! Easy like ~2m damage storm brand to clear maps with, and can just spam conduit on anything that doesn't immediately die with 2x brands constantly shocking it. Then use an annihilating light and laugh at your PoB numbers. Only real question is can...

    A lot of why melee feels so fucking bad is because almost every skill has a shitty 60-80% base attack speed mod on it. They did that shit way back when they did their animation update in like Betrayal league or whatever and it's made almost every skill feel like trash since. I can sorta...

    Really hard to know, this is pretty uncharted territory. Ashes specifically I expect the price multiplier on either perfect reservation or perfect quality to be insane though. Lower tier uniques though drop so frequently though that even good rolls will likely have a pretty low price ceiling...

    Yea one set of corpses only shocks once apparently - lot of people claim that was changed/ninja nerfed in the last day or two and used to just constantly apply shock, but fuck if I know. I think the way to go is gonna be the new Thunderfists and Storm Brand or Arc. Level 30 Added Lightning is...

    Skitterbots and corpses don't re-shock the same enemy if you consume the shock or it wears off, people already have been testing that and it's a dead end. Conduit sorta works out with CwC with some cast speed investment, but the mana is still gonna be a huge problem. Manual Conduit is gonna be...

    Path of Exile

    Shocks are so easy to get you can use something way more mechanically sound than shock nova. I don't think automating Conduit itself via coc/cwc is viable - the mana cost on it is just too extreme. It's pushing close to 300 mana/second for sustained casting which just isn't realistic for any...

    The hilarious unspoken nerf of the monster changes is how badly it's gonna fuck boneshatter: "All monsters in an instance that are the same or very similar will have the same magic monster modifier" So this is gonna result in some maps having what, 30-50% of your blue packs in a map rolling...

    If that's all it is then I hate it even more. Lightning strike getting to continue to do the thing they specifically removed frmo molten strike is some real bullshit. It's already mechanically a superior skill in every other way, why does it also get free double boss dps?

    I wouldn't have even minded black death - the girl herself was fine, still relatively cute. But the show is just so entirely thorough with replacing literally every character with someone off-white and/or gay. Diner dream orgy? Asian lady with a black husband. Gay couple. Waitress likes the...

    It got absolutely savaged in the gem nerf patch, along with a bunch of the nodes on the tree and master of metal etc. Phys impale DPS in general was only barely good enough before that - it was definitely one of the victims of that patch lowering the floor so much that it just feels awful to...

    Cyclone hasn't been a viable primary damage skill in quite a while. There was a brief window before the major gem nerfs that it was still pretty good, but after those the damage just isn't there. Especially now if you ever want to do ubers cyclone is just not a thing.

    Flamdash ignite is already a thing. It'll be even more of a thing now since this makes it pretty easy to hit gem level ~35 or whatever. This all assumes that divergent flame dash exists and isn't suddenly a 20ex gem

    Probably. Scaling two different damage types generally is too difficult to be worth it. The phys to lightning gem is really strong though, and you can get another full 50% conversion from temple gloves + eldritch implicit now, so getting to full lightning is very doable.
