Well Lightning Arrow will be affected by physical % for sure since it converts your physical dmg. So if you hit for 20% more physical dmg, LA will do 20% more damage. However the elemental dmg % passives will also affect it since it also does lightning damage. Now if you have the choice between...

Part of the reason yeah but it's also to do with LA mechanics when coupled with typical projectile aoe supports. Let's take an easy example, Fireball vs LA. If you fork/chain/pierce fireball, it loses its aoe property on most of the targets. If you fork/chain/pierce LA, it still creates an aoe...

Yo if someone has sekrit beta invites or whatever the fuck for this, hit me up. "Normal" closed beta is starting soon though I believe so might not be worth it.

They're patching security shit right now, seems they were pretty quick with them after the hackings started. Now you have IP block stuff like you'd expect.

Well to be honest, had there been a breach of security on GGG's end, you'd see hackings by the thousands, not by the dozens like you see now. It seems like the standard phishing/trojan/old password+email previously stolen combo that seems to plague every new game. It was like that for Diablo3...

I still have a PS2 somewhere in one of the boxes I haven't opened when I moved in, and I'll still have my PS3 in 5years so retrocompatibility I don't really care about, but I guess if I didn't have a PS3 I'd be interested in it so I could maybe pick up games I didn't play. Then again I don't...

Yep the issues with the gem however is well the fact it's a gem so that's one link you can't use on something else, and the cost increase which makes EA costs like 180health per shot instead of like 75, so with a blood magic gem you're forced into using LMP or GMP and Life gain on hit too to...

Well I linked it last page but gonna link it again since I got a PM about it too, here's the guide I wrote on my EA build:http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/172483 To answer quickly, EA isn't a typical attack, you don't gear at all for attack damage, you don't gear anything really...

It's fine to have 2 abilities, one for single and one for aoe, a lot of builds do especially archer builds since LA is fucking shit at single target DPS. Some use Frenzy, some use Elemental Hit. What I wonder is where is your damage coming from? It seems you have an insane amount of health which...

Well she will destroy your zombies in ice shot form I think, but I think just spamming skele totem and enfeeble should kill her fairly easy from minion instability, albeit slowly. If she goes fire form a couple of times in a row early in the fight though, your zombies might just rip her apart...

Meh, don't really care but will still buy one cause there's too many PS3 exclusives that I liked playing and I figure it'll be the same with this one. Might wait for price to drop first though, kinda depends on the initial price tag and what games they release with.

Merciless Piety down, easy fight, I think Vaal was scarier actually. She has so little health when I started shooting 5charges EAs in her face she dropped in seconds, I was just wary of the adds and her going iceshot berzerk on me so I didn't kill her that fast, but basically 5x explosive...

Well I guess it's dual totems so it's safer, but still you need a fair amount of ES before you can venture into maps because if you do get hit, you still get hit very hard and if you only have like 2000ES, it's extremely risky I think. But yeah I guess it's not that gear dependent vs health...

There's isnt really anything "clever" about this build, seems a fairly cookie cutter CI dual totem build, with spectres. I mean it mixes a bit of multiple builds, specifically the spectre part but it seems like a very normal CI build. And obviously CI builds don't take any health, that's very...

There are balance issues though for the late late game, in terms of comparing the defensive stats. Health > Everything else basically at 80+. Armor and Evasion are both unreliable and not very strong and ES is virtually health but unless you have really great gear health is better due to the...

Merc Vaal down, ezpz. 4300hp with my new build and some much better gear, I actually bought my first big piece of gear from someone, bought gems and small upgrades before but dropped 7GCP on these boots, they're basically perfect boots for my build, 30%movespeed, 25%cold/20%lightning(the 2...

Yeah I remember during closed beta I had the dual curses and Temporal makes him quite a joke then enfeeble to make sure the rocks don't do too much damage and it's easy peasy, plus unlike other fights, vaal constantly spawn shit mobs to raise zombies from, and if he doesn't smash the zombies...

Did you rip to the bear trap boss? Cause I've literally never fought this guy on hardcore, ever. Hug the "south" wall until you reach the town entrance, he's usually in the ruins so you won't see him. He's absolutely retarded balance wise and if you don't have high armor he will rape you. It...

If you're buying invites at this point, even for 2cents, you're pretty desperate, I've got so many to give away and basically no one needs them anymore. Stupid Valve keeps sending me mails about how I got more invites, even though I still have like 14 from before.

On your build, there's a quite a few things I'd change. First, are you sure you want to run mana based instead of Blood Magic? Seems to me it'd be a lot easier with Blood Magic. Second aspect, nitpicking and priority choices. The 10% armor nodes near the center are terrible, drop all of...

Quill Rain is an explosive arrow bow, and that's pretty much it. It shouldn't be used for anything but specific builds which disregard damage. It's also good for EK or Flame Totem shenanigans due to the insane projectile speed. You certainly shouldn't be using Quill Rain as lightning arrow, ever.

Yeah well alts can be finnicky bitches for sure. I used 60 alts to roll ONE seething flask the other day. Just a normal seething hallowed life flask, I didn't even care about the 2nd mod, and yet I never rolled it forever. Also about 15 augments. Was just saying that in general, you'll be able...

Just so you know, flat cold damage doesn't affect spells so it's a meaningless stat for casters. That still sounds like a pretty decent wand, but not that amazing, very high spell power sure but no crit, no crit dmg, no cast speed. Cast speed especially can be found in large numbers on wands and...

3GCP is way overpriced, but maybe it was ilvl 50+ or already 4linked. I'd say a basic Quill Rain is worth 2 to 3 chaos, 3chaos being 1GCP. I wouldn't pay more than a GCP for one, in fact that's what I paid for my current one iirc, and I only paid a GCP because it had 19dex(out of 20) and was...

Most of the answers and links to the relevant places can be found in the post I made for launch many pages back: http://www.rerolled.org/showthread.p...ll=1#post76233

Well they nerfed it for some reason for open beta, he used to be like he is now but then for OB he was only casting like 1spark or some shit, thought it was intended nerf. I went back to avoiding him now, no point in risking it. It's fairly safe with a skeleton totem and a long range spell but...

Oh man they added Tuskarr to test, he looks pretty awesome from what I've seen, haven't played yet just watched one of those preview videos.

There's no EU/US split, it's all mixed, only thing is whoever created the instance will make it on their platform, so everyone else who enters that instance(groups) will also be on that same platform. Can play with whoever and chats are shared for everyone, only split is hardcore/softcore.

Both ways work, there's not much of a difference to be honest, but if you follow the road you'll never end up backtracking and shit(other than when kiting), which can happen when running around randomly. Makes very little difference in the end but groups tend to follow the road since it's easier...

Act1 is about up to lvl 14, Act2 to lvl 26, Act3 to lvl 32 or so, in normal. I'd trade for explosive arrow, or just send me a tell I'll give you one they're worth jackshit and I have a few anyway, that's on hardcore though. Well I guess I can suicide a newb to bring it to softcore. Witches do...

Dual totems is really strong, but it's a very passive slow style. I mean not slow slow, but it's slow paced. Drop a totem ahead, see if it aggros anything, move up a bit, drop another etc. Once it aggros, drop 2nd totem near it, curse whatever, maybe drop a few mines/traps, wait for stuff to...

At the same time rolling items can take a lot of currency since it's heavily RNG based. Not saying I don't like it but I popped 60alts on my shield yesterday for example trying to get a high health roll+high resist and I never got one, settled for high health+mana cause I was running out. Chaos...

You could blood magic some flat auras yeah I guess, better make sure your hp doesn't move though cause if you reserve more than your total health, you die, and that's a pretty stupid way to die ^^. Blood Magic being 245% increased cost and you not having health items or passives probably mean...

I made a lot of money when I was gridning felshrine on my EA witch solo. Kill speed was very good(posted a video like last page) and I got plenty of alchs and chaos just looting stuff, then I got a bit of decent gear to sell, but not that much. At 60 and higher, people won't buy crappy gear...

On HC a GMP is worth 2-3GCP, with no qual. With 8% it'd probably be worth an exalted. Maybe softcore prices are lower or maybe you're just not finding the right people I don't know. Friend of mine who plays softcore seems to be getting a lot of really good deals though so I think it's just way...

Yeah Piety is pretty stupid too I assume, I haven't actually got a char to her yet, my explo arrow died on vaal and I can't be bothered progressing on my dagger melee witch anymore. Her Ice arrow hurt like a bitch even on cruel though, I guess because it's part physical and part cold so you need...

Get the 2nd curse and add enfeeble, then pretty much nothing is a threat anymore unless you're like not using any health items. Enfeeble makes Vaal's punch tankable on cruel pretty easily too(on merci you need fairly insane stats to tank it though, when it hits in its high range). Playing a...

Quality gems are worth more than that. Rule of thumb is 1GCP per 5% past the first, so 5-9%=1GCP, 10-14%=2GCP, 15+%=3GCP. The actual usefulness of the skill influences the price too, so like a 10% lightning strike or freezing pulse is going to be worth more than a 18% righteous fire. If it's a...

Well I have the radius passives in witch and templar, but also using concentrated effect. It does a pretty large aoe when you stack the charges though(each charge adds +2 radius) and proliferation itself which spreads the burning is like even large than the explosion so even if mobs aren't in...

Short video of a Felshrine run on my new explosive arrow witch, surprisingly powerful and fun to play. Video I was still 2 levels under Felshrine (so 57) and was already killing stuff super quickly as shown, and that's without the big fire node or the burning node.
