I got all y'all beat. Watch AND play at the same time! Just lower your expectations far enough so that you're ok with only getting to bronze 10.

Show me a dot build that's hitting for 3.2% of Shaper's ailment threshold.

Looks like they using the scaling similar to ailment threshold. So on a Shaper target, you would need to hit for ~800k to get full buff. I doubt any build scaling hit and dot is going to hit that hard. Now, to hit hard enough that it's better than the next best support? Not sure, dots...

Don't RMT date night with your wife.

VS data reaper live seems to agree with that. It says secret paladin is still quite good too. But fuck playing that deck and drawing into secrets instead of swords.

@ronne I'm not looking too heavily into Reap or Exsanguinate. Reap looks kinda boring without Awakened Spell Cascade. And Exsanguinate looks like it requires Chain, and they certainly seemed to have balanced it's damage numbers around that assumption. Skills that rely heavily on Chain don't...

Battlemage for the initial hit, but that does nothing for the dot? Am I right that the only damage supports for Corrupting Fever are Brutality and Swift Affliction? That life cost is brutal, doubt anyone is going to be playing that skill without heavily leaning on refreshing it. Would be nice...

My squishy endgame BF/BB character was getting just a bit higher than that per blade. I've never looked into playing an Archmage variant of BF/BB, but I'm doubting you're going to be detonating over 250 Lingering Blades per second. Have you figured out what your real blades/s is? There's a...

Turning to video games for the hate fucks your wife won't give you?

Corrupting Fever has me considering league starting with Bleedstorm. This is where someone quotes my post on shit clear.

What has changed to allow control lock back into the meta long term? Right now you're seeing players taking advantage of an unrefined meta to play a grief deck.

Darn, they nerfed worm blaster. Don't know if it's still feasible. lul, double nerfed. Saw the "bug" fix to Mother's Belt and thought it was maybe still feasible. Change to Null's Inclination definitely kills it. Hope someone comes up with some crazy new shit this league, don't got anything now.

Whatever you do, do the opposite of me.

Why are you asking Hoss to post a picture of his left hand?

Cutting the secret package also cuts your deck thinning, which comes back to Paladin's perpetual lack of draw.

@ronne How many times you going to forget the shit clear on that skill?

Fuck, that sounds awesome.

There are still plenty of ways to clear just as fast. Projectiles, especially when supplemented but not depending upon explosions, can clear faster. My plans are flame wall kinetic blast. Transition into worm blaster(that I fully expect nerfed tomorrow).

Excuse my ignorance(I mean that quite seriously), but isn't this a job for traps or poison? I mean, I guess you have other stuff in the area you don't want incidentally killed?

Miracle priest will be annoying to play against no matter it's win rate. Meta will likely marginalize both.

Self curse got nerfed, will need to reevaluate.

Archmage untouched, MoM will be more popular.

I'd rather get rid of the tedium than get rid of the QoL that massages away the tedium. I've put blade blast on my trigger setup if I had nothing better. PoE has a larger issue where they don't know how to develop interesting and complex gameplay that fits in their current speed. Trigger...

Indeed. Though, by themselves, I can't say I can't disagree with many of them. Altogether, this is going to be quite the sucker punch to the player base. And I still can't say I disagree. A few of them were like FUCKING FINALLY(beast splitting and fracturing delirious maps). A few were also...

Arcanist Brand is almost the exact same, functionally. Refreshing Wave of Conviction and a curse is not interesting gameplay. I see your point regarding slot competition, but maybe that's the cost?

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3079632/page/1#p23987586 General Balance Changes (It's All Nerfs) Haven't ready any of it yet.

Why do you want trigger craft gone?

You think that guy can play PoE on his graphing calculator?

I can't speak to Jandice, haven't played with her enough. This seems aimed more at rogue and shadowstep than mages. One more mana can be a pretty big difference for rogues. I had the same thought initially on DoL. But 4 mana might be enough. Pay 2 mana of tempo on turns 1-3 is not that...

What else needed nerfing? Just RSW? I bet DoL and changes to the meta will keep that deck in check. Face Hunter was already countering DoL Mage. So if there's some way Mage can build against aggro while still drawing through most of their deck while still packing some sort of combo(burn is...

How are you making any progress above D5?

Hopefully, but I fully expect to be disappointed. Tired of only choices being DoL or Paladin secrets, both which feel shitty when you don't top deck your IWIN cards early. Paladin feels even worse to draw your secrets.

15 hours played according to steam, 20 escape attempts according to the game, can't defeat minotaur and his buddy at the end of elysium. A little annoyed I blew all my titan's blood on different aspects of the gun before understanding where the bulk of it comes from. I rarely find myself using...

Not sure where you get that it's strong versus spell mage and paladin, stats say otherwise. It's popular in spite of it's poor performance because it appeals to certain players. I'd wager after the nerfs, it still won't be meta, at least not in its current form. Aggro will push it out unless...

Can you mow it? Is it non-threatening(poisonous, thorns, etc)? Fine by me.

Just seems like a weird data point. Nobody running a game on a platter should be used as valid data point unless it still runs flawlessly.

Did you write this post 5 years ago?

Kinda. The damage cannot shock no matter the type of damage it's dealing. Three Dragons or Call of The Brotherhood and then Herald of Ice were initially common ways to chain Inpulsa pops. Most builds use Storm's Gift now and just swap it out on bosses for that Delirium gloves.

I'll take Obliteration back. I was thinking it doesn't have any downside for phys-based chaos builds(i.e. poison), but the chance to explode means it's not as reliable. I'm not certain I'd call Inpulsa trash. The cost is some other soon-to-be other expensive influence mods or 10% life gained...

Are they getting rid of other sources of easy explosions? Obliteration and Inpulsa slot into a lot of builds.
