Area damage is gravy. In terms of whether it actually helps sell the item, I would say it's of the same magnitude that the item base itself might be a negative.

Why is it hard to price check an item like that? Path of Exile App Change the minimums as you please, but that link basically contains the important stats of that item. You might want to consider including offline sellers for an item like this. The weapon base *might* be a negative since it...

I would say there's still a need for some form of QA. What developer would own the testing system as a whole? Or do you think there wouldn't be a unified testing system? Who owns the system to collect and display test results? Who owns the actual machines the tests are running on and triages...

What bow are you using Korrupt?

Yes, but if they develop code intended for quality assurance, aren't they QA?

What would you call the people that develop and maintain the tools developers use to do these tasks? Essentially, the code that runs those tests and then aggregates and shows test results.

I know I've raised this question before, but I'm honestly not remembering getting an answer last time. Why is QA typically tasked with designing tests for code they didn't write? Outside of blackboxing, this seems like a really stupid setup but is quite common in software. When I did QA in...

Using it to draw the majority of the screen. There will still be some html controls, but most of what the user sees will be inside that canvas. I'm thinking Selenium is a waste of time in this setup.

What's your opinion on terrines? Specifically, head cheese.

What do you figure is the depth limit of your character in MF gear? It might be that pack and quant from deeper delves makes up for mf gear. Yes, that doesn't solve who you map with.

Thanks for the response. I've got cracks and some of the top coat is roughed up, but nothing down the foundation. This is my first time, so I'm going to pay someone. If it looks simple enough, I'll give it a try next time.

It's boring from a loot perspective. MF loot itself is boring and caps out quickly, so your character's progression caps out quickly. If you can get around that by MFing and progressing on the same character, you gotta swap gear frequently and you character is still at least somewhat of a...

I doubt they'll do that with sulfite. Use movement flask with LW, solves speed issues. More specifically, even without the flask it can't be slower than unearth/bodyswap unless you're teleporting a distance in which you can get off 3+ attacks while the duration resolves. The flask should...

How much did you pay for that open-face sandwich?

I'm considering crafting(!!!) a belt because the one I want just plain doesn't exist. Crystal(doesn't have to be crystal) shaped belt with +ES, increased ES%, increased mana/es/cooldown recovery rate. I can't figure out what that cooldown recovery rate affix is categorized as. Speed? If so...

@Kythik and I were discussing Indigon builds last night, so I thought I'd post mine since I've changed a bit since last patch. It's your typical Indigon-CI-Hierophant-PP build, but I've made perhaps a few unique changes/mistakes: Arc/LW for clear, Volatile Dead/Unearth for single target...

Well, it probably applies to a lot of stuff but this is the first instance where a seed is(was? seems like it's been "fixed") rolled on something that has stayed alive for a long time.

Why is QA better suited for developing end to end testing? I feel like not working in the codebase that's being tested is a severe handicap. Unless it's black box.

What's the basic guideline for maintaining an asphalt driveway? Ive owned my first for about five years and cracks are starting to show. Seal it? How often? Let it go to shit and it "becomes" gravel? I know this is a bit stupid, I just have no use for asphalt. And I really want to avoid paying...

Well, just assume I'm an idiot when it comes to JavaScript because I pretty much know nothing despite my strong opinions against it. For instance, Ive heard of a Dom but don't know what it is. I question if QA should be designing the tests instead implementing the tools for them.

I did stumble upon Cypress, I'm looking into that some more Monday. I don't think unit tests are enough here because they don't how the code functions inside our non-javascript code nor how the browser will react.

I'm not certain what framework they are using, if any. I want to say Angular.

Question for the JavaScript wizards in here, I know we have a least a couple. We're transitioning a part of our product from Java to JavaScript(TypeScript, specifically) and we'd like some end-to-end testing. The developers are going to handle writing unit tests, while I, the QA manager, has...

Hmmm, is there a way to deal with them besides shattering? I like shattering but it is limiting if that's a requirement for deep delves. I've heard some people suggest CWDT and an offering but I don't know how that would work.

The most popular bow builds right now either use Windripper or +levels bows. I've been playing a build that explodes pretty much all corpses and now I'm considering one that won't do that. How dangerous are those Unstable Wetas?

Hierophant makes a good Indigon character. It's not cheap though. Probably 8ex entrance fee atm.

Bleh, wonder what's different this league. I've never had map progression stall out like this such that I've had to go back 2-3 tiers.

How many maps do you get from lower delves? I've been kinda slow with delving compared to my atlas. I've completed all maps up to T9 as well as half of T10 and T11, but I've now run out of anything above T7. My delve level is around 170. I usually go sideways for things like jewel nodes, but...

Just FYI, that Spiritual Aid node is good for builds for utilizing secondary damage, which is typically hard to scale. I know, this is pretty "duh" but you can fall into this trap for existing builds. I'm playing a build that worked last patch(probably patch before it too), I just forgot graft...

You might find 600 difficult. It's in the "end game grind" challenge.

I've always found it helpful to have concrete goals for the grindy type of games. Otherwise, you risk playing until you're bored and that can risk a bad aftertaste. But, it also helps you determine how far you need to push a build. Pretty much any build can get 12 challenges, any competent...

Wait, were you the guy that said you wanted to take your character to 100 in chat yesterday? What are your goals for this league?

If you like self cast, then play it. But the difference between self cast and mines/totems/traps/poet's pen is much bigger than you're allowing. You can still do most content with self cast, I think I saw someone do self cast freezing pulse on Uber Elder last league, your goals just might be...

So, lots to remark on here. But first and foremost, if you _really_ want to improve your build, find some other way to cast arc. Self-cast, especially arc because of its high cast time, is garbage atm and you can get so much more out of your build by switching to mines, totems or poet's pen...

While leveling, any class can use HoI - Ele Prolif - Ice Bite - Innervate/Onslaught and I highly recommend it. Up until yellow maps, HoI will easily proliferate itself with that setup. 3.2's buff to ele prolif gem probably helped quite a bit. You also need to stick an ele prolif gem on your...

Was freeze prolif ever gone? Inpulsa-Three Dragons is the only way to MF farm. I could probably shatter the whole delve at once if it wasn't for that stupid darkness immunity.

I'm not sure people are sleeping on regen, so to speak. An attack build can get decent leech with 2-3 passives. Traps and mines can get 20% regen with 2 ascendancy points. Most caster builds can utilize Warlord's Mark or a leech affix on the amulet. To get 20% regen otherwise is a much...

Traps and mines get strong regen. CA doesn't have much in it's typical tree.

How does your friend deal with the sustain problem inherent to all chaos dot builds? I started with CA and that's my main reason for moving onto my next build.
