Indeed, that's how it works.
It's not great that you need a trans gem and you need to vaal it on top, and quality matters too, can just play normal cleave and not lose out much, it's huge in juiced maps and when you have vaal cleave up (you will most of the time).

Think I'm starting to see the vision, scion is balanced around having ff jewels.
No1 ever values her nodes since none of them immediately break the game and ironically, poe 1 players r legit 2 dumb to add, and are too busy chasing x^2 multipliers. You'll have the choice of
>8 link main skill
>wearing as many uniques as you want
>more proj then any ascendancy
>More sneed then any ascendancy
>flexible defenses for FREE
>smaller hitbox
All that alongside the obvious & most broken build archetype to leaguestart as. Alternatively you can just become a groupsissy (does any1 actually do this?) then swap to something fun later.
Anyway, we're gonna be bustin inside the tot raking in 25 div/h week 1 selling the new awakened gems to basically everybody yw.GCF cucks should literally be put on suicide watch

i look at those items as chase items after you peak your rare items/uniques that are build enabling
>>
>>559105538
As much as you can get efficiently. It can be bait stat if you're scaling it on its own and not getting some compounding benefit like with golems or crown of eyes+rathpith life stacking.
>>559105672
It's bait almost always, and the few situations when it's not bait, you'll probably figure out yourself (basically having huge mitigation and es/life/mana on hit and wanting to take damage to fuel recoup/untiring/divine shield/other).
>>
>>
>>559105672
Hmm lets do the math
>37,5% block chance
You have 37,5% higher EHP
>75% block chance (regular cap) with 65% less block effectiveness
0,75 * 0,35 = 26,3% higher EHP
Unless you're interacting with block like life gained on block or ES gained on block or whatever else, its not worth it
>>
>>
>>
>>559105538
If you're not getting %increased damage from stat stacking then 300% increased is fine. Some builds can get large amounts in a single place, but you don't want to pick up a bunch of 12% increased damage nodes just to hit your quota.

The number of people that are going to get baited by Kinetic Fusillade totems is going to be hilarious.
There's no way to make that build tanky with everything that you need to grab so it doesn't feel like ass. Mirage will be rippy. All of their totems will die instantly and then so will they. Over and over.
Also the damage early isn't any different than any other totem build.

How awful is RF's boss damage? I've never played it before but the one thing I know about it is braindead campaign and mapping but "awful awful awful" boss damage. I just don't want to be in hell getting stones.

>>559108408
Stones are easy just play it properly and have a solution for boss resistances (either chief node or double curse+exposure). You can even just turn RF off to facetank them easily and just kill them with fire trap (good for maven if you're bad).

probably because GGG said they are nerfing the ascendencies quiver node so build makers are waiting and seeing if its even worth it probably building it in the background as a back up in case they dont remove it, i dont know much just seen a video from allie on it, the boots sound good but a pain in the ass to deal with you lose your amulet slot and a bunch more on your tree to deal with the debuffs which sound really shit to deal with for 6 seconds and even for 6 seconds they sounds shit like minus action speed sounds terrible for example

That's a Phrecia char that's not available in the next league.
You probably don't want to copy that one, maybe look at Goratha's build from Settlers.
I'm sure there will be more up to date pobs for static strike soon tho, that skill way already good just gimmicky and niche.
UberDan's Doryani slayer still works and is insane kino (just watch the showcase).

You get a good weapon and just scale minion damage on the tree and clusters, and you can lean on things like smite and auras. The problem is that it has 0 coverage and I don't see how you expand it without using a second skill (genuinely a possible path, you just use a secondary clear minion).
Shame it converts cuz it would massacre with impale.

They need to reword Hallowing Flame support and Guardian's Marshal of Divinity node.
They both say you inflict Hallowing Flame on Melee hit, which means you can't use both at the same time to get 2 Hallowing Flames per-hit cause it's implied a Boolean mod.
Needs to say "Inflict 1 Hallowing Flame on Melee Hit" instead.

Early game: romira's. This is the best because it lets you play a RT build, which is sensible for a slam early.
Early game if you're allegric to Romira aka retarded: battlemage's cry with a 1000 multihit skill like ball lightning of static and power charge on crit, or static strike with power charge on crit.
Later than very early game (exert build): mob mentality cluster.
Attack speed scaling crit builds (that don't go exert) will have run power charge on crit on the main links probably, it's gonna be difficult to get 100% uptime if you attack very fast. There are power charge sources everywhere but they're not good enough for 100% uptime with high attack speed.

It has close to 100% more damage and encourages you to stack attack speed. People play much worse skills than that.
>>559118474
Probably not, golems shouldn't affect those guys. Guardian and aura-stacking builds like reliquarian will have an edge.
That skill will do giga damage just fine, the issue is that it has zclear so I would focus on solving that part.

block, hallowed flame node, and aura reservation or farruls if that turns out to be the case, but if the clear is as dogshit as it looks you will need a secondary skill which likely means damageable minions.
necro i would probably take bone barrier, mistress, and farrul spectre. also very strong, but uptime on offering will be harder since you want a weapon that does damage so trigger craft is a big opportunity cost.

it says they attack what you attack with holy strike. it does not say they attack every time you do. i am expecting it to be like holy relic or focused ballista. if i am wrong then i admit it could be very strong, but it would be a departure from everything else that functions like this

>These Holy Armaments... will attack the enemies you target with Holy Strike
This is poorly-worded and I can't tell if it means that the Minions attack enemies that I do (off any attack I do) with their copy of Holy Strike or if they just basic attack enemies that I hit with my Holy Strike.

>>

>>559119932
Yeah im confused too
Lets compare with animate weapon of self reflection
Allows up to 7 weapons
They deal 38% more damage and have 38% more attack speed
They have 100% damage effectiveness on their attack
Total damage effectivness: 1,38 x 1,38 x 7 x 100 = 1338%
Notably, animate weapon of self reflection can use swords and thus abuse EE or EB, plus they autotarget and you dont need to attack yourself
So if holy hammers are around 1200% damage effectiveness theres no reason to play it at all
>>
>>559120669
oh no, i asked about quality because 0.25 base cast time is fucking insane and additional MORE cast speed on qual is even more insane for a self cast spell. for comparison, incinerate has 0.2 cast time.

Atziri's Rule Archmage Saboteur. 10,000 base damage + triggers 2 additional times per cast due to Triggerbots + massive Archmage scaling and defenses. Atziri's Rule was buffed in 3.27 but largely went unnoticed, with the Sabo buffs in 3.28 I think it could be a very good build. Think about it, poebabs.

This anon is right
Holy hammers has 3543% damage effectiveness
This is what they said on the reveal video, confirming that the hammers themselves also use holy strike
>When successfully hitting an enemy with Holy Strike, you’ll summon forth a floating holy armament, a glowing mace that follows you closely. These weapons are minions, and will attack with Holy Strike themselves whenever you do.
Im pretty sure this is the highest damage effectiveness skill in the game. Only issue is its tricky to scale damage as you’re limited to minion damage (your damage is 392% of 3543% so its irrelevant)

I think the Holy Strike minions actually have a massive ICD of like half a second or more (not attack speed scalable).
Cause in the footage, after each attack, the minions stand in place and then are teleported to you.
The fact they attack so sparsely makes it hard to tell, but I suspect the teleport is the internal cooldown reset.

I'm going Holy Strike Guardian for 1 simple reason:Templar starts with it and I like builds that I can start from level 1. The later I have to wait to start it, the more I hate it. And no, I don't rush Campaign. I go fairly fast, but don't actively try to speedrun it.

Depends on what variant of mamba. There's wardstack, there's pneumos, there's mana which might be dead because getting enough es to make you not die when wearing whispers of infinity is hell with the int nerf, there's the shitty ambush perfect agony which will make you kill yourself with how clunky it is.
Easiest way now is probably pneumos.

So Divine Blast with a decently rolled Emperor's Vigilance has about 720 to 800 base phys damage and a 9.5% base crit with the explosion dealing 100% more damage. That seems pretty decent. Only problem is that reduced skill effect duration items will be giga expensive.
I feel like a lot of KF players are going to be pissed when they see high rolled Timeclasp rings being dozens of divines

6-link holy strikes in a 2h and 6-link herald of agony in your chest, cheat and benefit from two fully linked damage skills at once. Herald already runs six to nine medium clusters with minion damage and pure agony notable. Farrul's bloodline for more minions and attack speed. wear Triad Grip to full convert the animated weapons to poison because 50% phys and 50% lightning is ass, full convert to chaos and benefit from chance to poison, wither, and despair.
Exemplar support on both herald and strikes, it's basically free +200% increased crit and 100% crit multi since it works on all hits, even shit like tornado and ball lightning which builds already use to stack virulence a million times per second.

in real life too, but you have to invest into it if you want long tincture uptime. however, many builds don't even need long tincture uptime, you just kill the target very quickly when you have that much extra damage, especially on warden that scales the effect. and warden gets to have setups where you have literally permanent uptime.
stacking tincture mana burn with sap of seasons and the like (using power of purpose and clarity) is also brutally strong with elemental skills, which you might scoff at because of its clunk but it's how you kill ubers easily with shit gear on attack chars.

Herald of agony by itself is already playable as a 6-link damage skill, it's just more niche than standard minion skills.
Maintaining virulence is trivial because you use Golden Rule to double all poisons (self poison stacks virulence) and then triggered level 1 Ball Lightning of Orbiting to hit a million times per second. The current builds use cyclone or lancing steel just linked to wither or life on hit, using holy strikes lets you actually contribute damage with your poison skill on top of the herald
If you use a 2h weapon you don't wanna go gladiator so instead champion for fortitude, adrenaline, and maybe impale/intimidate or just take a bloodline.
>>
>>559131862
Yes, it will be chaining off screen from each extra strike target. Get the +2 strike gloves and you're one tapping everything you see. Explosions optional, but no reason not to throw them in if you can get them.

Going by the reveal video, it won't. The first hit is just a regular hammer, not a slam+hammer, so its a flat 220% + 100% more. And even with more AoE, the hammers seem to be hard-coded to only overlap at the VERY edge.
>>
>>559131835
a bow or wand character has more coverage than a strike character so obviously its the best choice if you can get enough damage and survivability from high end gear
that doesnt mean strike builds dont have a place
>>
>>
>>559132370
If you watch the gif on the Mirage Website and the footage, there's almost no way in hell you don't at least double hit almost all the time, and there's visible potential for triple if you keep it low aoe.
Hitting twice gives you 220% wep/effective damage+220%wep/effective damage with 120% more if you spent a charge (which you should aim to always do). This hits harder than VFoS, which everyone bitched about being too strong.
Keep in mind this skill will hit 50% shocks all the time because it will always do double damage (intimidating cry) and it will have fist of war and other slam modifiers. Earthshatter literally never gets shock or trinity. Just keep that in mind.

You do it the same way as with VFoS and smite and such. You step away from the target, don't name lock it, and clip it with the edge of your aoe. This is second nature to me as someone who played VFoS and smite. HH looks like it will totally rape despite not being the top performer in damage. You don't need the best damage skill in the game to have a good character. No one's fucking playing Perforate of Duality.

this is why beyond got reworked.
this is why harbinger got removed.
did you notice that its all old leagues that are getting completely reworked despite being perfectly fine? things like heist or betrayal are not part of "legacy" poe leagues and they can actually work with them and change things.
this is why sirus is bugged as fuck.
this is why t16.5 performance is dogshit thanks to petals.
this is why new boss particle effects dont load so often.
performance will keep degrading because they dont know what they are doing and they keep fucking it up more now with literal aislop code.

>>559133679
The easy and obvious solution for early game is Romira's, you can spare the ring (slams don't need mandatory uniques other than maybe Echoes). You can battlemage's cry spells like ball lightning of orbiting which can spam hits for power charge on crit (provided you didn't go RT, which you don't even want on staff builds).
Later you make a cluster with Mob Mentality, and if you want to play completely differently and actually play attack speed scaling, then it is genuinely a challenge to solve perfect pcharge uptime, but you have to ask why bother doing that when the slower, exert-based playstyle works perfectly. Every build has problems to solve.
>Vfos didnt have to deal with any of that nonsense
and didn't have anywhere near the same coverage.
>>559133715
We'll see but I don't imagine you'll even need to, losing whatever the real damage difference between 1 slam and another won't make you unable to kill a boss. Slam builds don't play on margins that tight, they have good damage uptime and can handle long boss fights just fine.
>>
>>559134198
im gonna be honest i have no idea how the fuck this works
lets say you only have 1 void stone and are doing destructive play which forces you to run maps from multiple quadrants (to do your 10 favorite layouts), do you have to keep moving the voidstone around to the quadrant that your map is in?
the entire system seems kinda shit for destructive play in general

I played a soulwrest phantasm build in mercenaries that primarily scaled damage through minion crit using offerings and ancient skull. non-damageable minions can still hear the whispers so you can go ancient skull and stack power charges plus use Exemplar support for another 200% increased crit and 100% crit multi. Phantasms have absolutely dogshit base crit chance and I was still able to brute force it to 100% crit chance with assassin's mark, precision, and brittle.
https://pobb.in/jEW7hCy9jDdc
this is similar to what I played, same uniques but I did full lightning conversion with a doryani's mercenary while this is cold.
I might do this as an excuse to play Assassin, since the All Damage Poisons will actually be useful on a build that can't just use pneumatic daggers and it has max power charges and power charge on hit. The downside is shadow's part of the tree has zero fucking survivability but with t17s gone hopefully that matters less

NZ does not out source the India. NZ is one of the most draconian places for business as you have to basically go the government and say "There are literally 0 men, women, children, or sheep capable of doing this job.

It is pretty draconian when you consider GGG has openly admitted that they just cannot hire enough people due to it. And keep in mind, GGG is a pro NZ business. Chris and the team were very, very Kiwi at the start and were proud to be NZers. So if THEY are complaining about the government being too slow at letting them hire people, it is probably bad.
Just to be clear: I do agree that governments need to incentivize people to hire their own citizens and we shouldn't have 10,000 indians at microsoft, but I think you can agree that the process in NZ is too slow and beaurocratic

this guy has a video showing herald glad in delve from last league if you just want to see it in action

Aside from losing Graftblood increases, getting Wombgifts and making stuff from the tree should be WAY easier. Assuming they didn't tamper with the rates too much.

I really hope the enrage mechanic in Hives is actually legitimately difficult. My only problem with the Hive encounter was that it was boring as fuck and way too easy. If the rewards were good and it was not a pushover, I would like it. It would basically just be faster Blight.

In what way do you want them to be harder? It's a swarm mechanic, you either hold the button and clear the screen for 5 minutes, or instantly get overwhelmed and die. There can't be any meaningful difficulty by design

Charged Dash of Projection is technically a much higher damage ceiling for Shako Decay. At 15 stages, it would do 2175% Decay damage. Even on the high-ish end of 5s duration, that would result in ~1000% Decay damage.

The more damage buff implies very strongly it doesn't, at least nit without extra strike hydrosphere. It's gonna work very similar to lightning-only Wild Strike, just with way more damage and not needing combat focus jewels.

What the AI failed to mention is the very Jewish story of the first Perandus emperor, Chitus, who only became emperor in the eternal labyrinth because he bribed the builders of the lab to tell him where the traps were and how to avoid them, and also made a deal with an Ezomyte who was also trying to become emperor so that the two would work together to get through the labyrinth. Chitus offered to share the details of the traps with the Ezomyte while the Ezomyte would fight all the monsters and stuff in the lab. The Ezomyte didn't actually care about becoming emperor, he just wanted to set his people free, which Chitus promised to him that he would do when he became emperor. That dead body in the room just before the final aspirant's trial is the Ezomyte's body after he was poisoned by Chitus and left to die an agonizing death. Chitus never freed the Ezomytes.

for holy strikes what weapon type are people thinking?
I think staves have to be the no-brainer choice, you can get one with plenty of damage just like 2h maces and they also come with 25% block, the Staff masteries and staff nodes let you easily get capped block+spell block as well without sacrificing much damage

sin created the Beast to put the gods to sleep, which redirected the power of faith that normally made mortals into gods into Thaumaturgy, which can warp reality like divinity but is corrupted and easily abused and everyone who's tried using thaumaturgy at large scales has fucked up and destroyed the world.
The natural state of being is faith elevating mortals to godhood and shaping their portfolio and powers, the Beast puts them to sleep and means all faith in the world is corrupted into thaumaturgy (more specifically, it's redirected to the Beast but since the Beast is mindless and lacks an ego the wielders of thaumaturgy are able to control it by proxy and become reality warpers themselves, it's literally Yes Man from New Vegas but magic)

The Beast was created to suppress Gods, who were ruining the world.
The Beast being a world-ending calamity was not the goal and likely, it wasn't that way until much later, when the Vaal discovered it.
Then Atziri fucked everything up and destroyed much of the world.
Then many, many years later, we do our thing, kill the Beast, then the last fragment of it, a while later, falls into the hands of a manipulative whore who plans to ruin everything.. Again.

Vaal didn't cause the problem. The Beast already did a big cataclysm long before the Vaal existed, aka the Winter of the World.
The Beast was likely invented as a response to the Lightless, who were fucking shit up big time. The Weapon was made alongside the Beast to kill it after its mission was complete but a certain unnamed sister of Innocence and Sin threw it into the sea and now the Beast is everyone's problem until POE2 happens.

this guy hit 100 as a chains of command animated weapon/animate guardian Champion using Maata's Teachings and Ancient Skull to scale minion crit. You could probably do something similar using Holy Strike instead of Animated Weapon and keep most of the pathing the same, it already paths to spiritual command and spiritual aid which are gonna be important for holy strikes to scale your own attack speed alongside minions

Beast can't die unless it's killed with The Weapon™, it'll just regrow and keep coming back. Sin is a retard and sped up the regeneration process because he thinks he can tardwrangle it (he can't).
I suspect POE2 ends with the Beast actually getting killed for good which blows up and scrambles the entire planet. Bad end forever until the timeloop is somehow broken.

Large groups ie 6 are literally making less money then all other efficient groups from 1 to 3. Those large groups only real impact is that it drives down value on mid range uniques and currencys like fusings. 2 man and 3 man groups are way more money per hour.

That's the brainlet option, but smart boys use 'Use when hit rare or unique enemy if not already in effect' instead. Unless you're a build that gets tons of flask shit in which case you can use reused at the end of duration.
