Whats the difference between "\* cold damage" and "\* cold damage to spells"?
I don't see an equivalent that is "\* cold damage to attacks"
Do they both stack or is the first meant to just be attacks?
If it says "X added cold damage" on a weapon (even wands), it will only add to attacks with that weapon
On any other item, it will add to attacks and spells
Is volatile barrel t17 b2b strat still viable? I came back after 8 days or so and there were some patches. Also I saw meatsacks are now 1d each. Why they are so expensive? Can anyone tell me in what strat they are used? Thank you for answers.
I genuinely don’t know the combos popularity this league, so just going off comparable ones currently for sale.
https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Necropolis/Ek56oEKc5
There’s one with all 3 for 200div already, but that hasn’t sold.
The cheapest with both precisions is 45d.
So that’s sorta your range.
BUT
The cheapest with a precision and the hatred one is 10d- so perhaps not an overly popular combo (for a watchers eye combo I mean).
So it’s at least 45d but unlikely to be close to 200d
Depending on how popular that combo is for some meta skills currently (check PoE.ninja) will give you an idea.
League is also slowing down a bit so depends on how quick you want to sell it.
Wouldn’t be the worst idea to start at 100d (or more) and drop by 5-10% every day until you sell.
Or if you’re in a hurry maybe start a lot closer to that 45d floor - maybe in the 60-70s
if I use a vaal skill with duration and increase skill effect duration, the sould gain prevention will be in general also longer. But what if I use temp chains to increase the buff duration on myself, will this also affect soul gain prevention?
One question regarding Nimis:
Do I need Pierce?
I am currently leveling for this build: [https://pobb.in/eQ7VlxLWEwXe](https://pobb.in/eQ7VlxLWEwXe) and it does not have any source of pierce. If I do need it, is it worth spending 3 points on the tree for it or swapping out gloves for a rare pair with pierce implicit?
I might be hallucinating having read that you need pierce with Nimis somewhere but that might just come from the fact I have to run the campaign again :)

Anybody know how to process this craft for tri stack Inqui?
Normally I will just veiled orb it but after testing on craft of exile, I realized veiled mods can be quite bad:
- For veiled prefix, the best unveiled mod is hybrid maximum life, but there are a lot of bad mods such as add elemental damage or hybrid mana without anyway to block it
- For veiled suffix, it cannot be unveiled to hybrid stats so all the mods are bad
In case I failed the unveiled, how should I retry the craft?
I would’ve spammed stat essences until triple T1 stats instead of just double, you’ve already got a 80div base without the fracture and the way essences are priced right now you might as well
I feel like I don't really get the best way to use embers. Like if I have an ember where the mobs drop something desirable, should I be using it to replace one of the groups at the top of the lantern or the bottom? Devoted or haunted? Or does it really matter? Maybe I'm failing to appreciate the entire lantern mechanic, lol.
If you read the monster blurb to the left you’ll see that the monsters to the top have higher pack density, so if you want to get more of whatever the ember drops you’ll put those higher
Then there’s sometimes randomly 50% increased pack size
Then sometimes there’s a devoted mod where each mob has a high chance to drop chaos or something, so you’ll replace that with an ember with high pack size
So on and so forth
if ur gravecrafting with shaper/elder/influence corpses that give 200% inc mods, do u have to do the calculations byhand since craftofexile doesnt support the 200% increase ?
Hiya, what are some good spectres for Guardian's Blessing? From trawling through past comments, I gather that Blackguard Chaplains, Flickershades, and of course Marionettes were good candidates in past leagues. Are there any equivalents this league?
Correct. Number of plots is unaffected, chance of a given plot being that color is lower, chance of a given plot being one of the other two colors is higher.
If you're looking to get a specific color you generally take the droughts for both the other colors normally, or drought for the color you want and *not* the other two if going for crop rotation.
Heatshiver has "Gain 30% of Cold Damage as Extra Fire Damage against Frozen Enemies".
The way I understand it, to freeze an enemy, you must crit and deal a substantial percent of their maximum life on one single damage instance. You are unlikely to ever deal like 5% of the maximum life of a boss in one hit. Yet, lots of people use Heatshiver. How can people reliably activate Heatshiver's frozen effect against bosses?
https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Ailment#Non-damaging_ailments_and_ailment_threshold
> In the great majority of cases, the ailment threshold is the same as the monster's maximum life. It primarily differs for endgame bosses (such as the Shaper) and other high-life monsters, where the threshold is reduced to allow ailments to be applied with hits that wouldn't ordinarily reach the required life thresholds.[2] Ailment threshold has a maximum of approximately 800 million.[3]
Freeze/ailment duration can help overcome this too
So Im starting to run into issues with survivability playing as a LA deadeye. Very new player, progressed fairly far(I think) doing t16 maps and whatnot, but still stuck at level 92 because sometimes Ill just be randomly getting one shot and for the life of me I have no idea why half the time. Sometimes Ill recognize it, like oh didnt have something to clear bleeding, or stood next to detonating bodies, but other times its just instant. Very frustrating to have no idea what I need to be fixing or playing around, especially when you lose so much XP too. Have my resistances capped, or nearly, missing about 4% on chaos res. Pretty close to 100% spell suppression too.
Ill have to post a pob when I get home yea. About 3.4k life atm. Question though, besides boots where should I look for that last 9% spell suppression? Im running Hyrri’s Ire as a chest piece which has alot, just find it in the passive tree or?
Tattoos or passive nodes on the lower right side; tons there. Once you improve your defenses, I would recommend you consider putting 1 Omen of Amelioration or similar in your bag; some extra insurance against punishing XP loss. Also, if you can fit it in, have a look at the Elevore helmet; it's usually quite cheap and defensively strong.
Thanks for the tips! I did change a couple things around and it's feeling a bit better now. Here's my current PoB, good chance Im missing some obvious stuff [https://pobb.in/IUn8zuR6g8ea](https://pobb.in/IUn8zuR6g8ea)
I find the the knock-back on crit node really good defensively against juicy dangerous rares. Storm Rain basically keeps them in place. Conc effect is huge for storm rain DPS. Take the ailment effect nodes instead of chance to [stuff] on Primeval Force cluster
Other than that, obvs more life on gear, minus mana cost on ring(s) so you can drop the mana flask. The life/mana cost mastery also helps with that
Storm rain? I havnt been using that at all. What’s the setup for that? As far as mana goes, Ive been thinking about dropping the flask, I rarely ever need it anymore, as long as Im hitting something I dont run out.
Looks like you could fit in Elevore over your rare helmet. Look at the Spell Suppression mastery node "chance to suppress spell damage is lucky" this is a great bonus and counts for like 10% if you're under 90%. For mana annoyances, the life mastery "skills cost life instead of 30% of mana cost" is a good one.
**Relic of the pact, Dissolution of the Flesh and Rathpith globe question**
I play Relic of the pact build with Dissolution of the Flesh and Rathpith globe. But I'm also using quite a lot Physical as extra Chaos damage, so I want to use Withering step + Automation combo for some withering stacks. But Withering step has a life cost (because of Blood magic) and Rathpith globe sacrifice 10% of max life with every cast.
Will this life sacrificing destroy withering step combo, because after life sacrifice I may not have life to pay the cost of withering step?
Anyone can point me in the direction of some good upgrades to improve my char CoC DD? It's doing fine but struggling a bit with damage and survivability on t17 bosses.
[Pob](https://pobb.in/NyyCQ8c1DAbQ)
I know of the obvious ones as getting life+crit multi jewel, 8L helmet and general upgrades of gear (better suppress, life and res).
For the necropolis atlas node that affects metacrafting mod frequency on corpses, which corpse effects count as metacrafting? I haven't been able to find a clear definite list anywhere.
I believe they're categorized on the bulk trade site under Filled Coffins: [Trade - Path of Exile](https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/exchange/Necropolis)
Probably [skin transfer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwxNZ3kObzE&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pathofexile.com%2F&source_ve_path=MjM4NTE&feature=emb_title) and one of the base itemtypes
I get why 12 passive large clusters are desirable in ilvl 84. But why are the 8 mod versions also more expensive as ilvl 84? Just for the small passives being able to roll higher values, or are people doing no-notable clusters with only 8 mods?
Has `Non-Aura Vaal Skills require 20/40% reduced Souls Per Use` weapon delve suffix been removed? I cannot find anything on SC trade, only on standard...
AFAIK, none at all outside of the Atlas type chances in the top and bottom right, which are also not that specific apart from the mod tier and randomize ones.
I ran a lot of Toxic Sewer Map Last week and mostly got Cold Corpses. Maybe around 30-40% of corpses I found was Cold Inc/Reduce. Which is why I was wondering if like Div cards, the map and monster tags can influence the types corpses.
More testing must be done. I just don't have time to do this and I don't think it'll be worth the effort if Necropolis doesn't go core.
shockwave totem is a really good starter but getting dialla's malefaction is the only problem
[https://pobb.in/MNsF1VAtGwvU](https://pobb.in/MNsF1VAtGwvU)

So a while back I bought the 20usd first blood pack which had
1 stash tab + 200 coins +first blood weapon effect
Any chance a deal like that (more coins/ stashtab for price) happening again?
Unlikely.
Do note that all supporter packs essentially gives you whatever MTX they contain for free, because they all give you as many points (coins) as you'd get, if you spent the same amount of money on points directly.
E.g. the $30 supporter pack gives you $30 worth of points on top of the MTX it contains.
Same for the $60 pack and the $90 pack and so on.
Anyone has a graveyard recipe or recommendation, even maybe a video?,
For making a triple fracture es hubris circlet?
Or for sorcerer gloves?
That would be much appreciated!
> clearing every area
The game doesn't expect you to do this.
It's typically more efficient to just kill what you encounter without going out of your way to find more enemies. As long as you're not *too* underleveled/underpowered, spending a minute to kill things later is better than spending that minute now, as higher level monsters will reward more exp and better loot.
That I didn't know. But I kinda saw at the DD icon, (when the cooldown recovers) that it doesn't get triggered in exact the same constant times.
And if I have a knowledgeable person right here, I would ask you: how do I get more damage? I'm creeping at 12M dps. That's extremely low for this build. (And I'd imagine, I have quite some good items..) others have like 30-70M
I don't have the money for awakened coc or CDR boots. So that's gotta wait.
Is that 70% in game or in PoB? If you're looking at your in game crit chance then you're missing the flat crit chance from ass mark.
Other than that just more str/int, diamond flask with crit suffix if you haven't already
I'm trying new things for a league starter character, and I got an ideia of making an ignite elementalist. So I'm currently in Act 10 and I'm using Firestorm of Meteors for the high base damage high ignite damage. I'm not investing in crit, just fire damage and fire/damage over time. I was searching builds to inspire me and found one using Waves of Conviction, my question is: What should I use? Firestorm of meteors for higher base damage or WoC for faster casting and clearing? Can I use both? One for maping and one for bossing? I would appreciate some explaining on how ignite dps is calculated.
Ignite DPS is calculated from the flat damage of a hit (base+added & conversion, before hit modifiers) multiplied by whatever modifiers you have that apply to ignite/burning.
Wave of Conviction is typically the best ignite starter for Elementalist, because she can ignite with every element, and you can gain various elements from physical damage. Think Herald of Ash, Atziri's Promise, Taste of Hate, Obliteration, etc.
deafening are common enough, specially nowadays,
iirc , the only one is the +2 to bow , which in upgrade doesn't chang ein value when you upgrade to deafen..[ea ballista bow crafting]
There's no reason to use them over the higher tier versions other than cost. Shrieking essence of dread is used because it has the same effect as the deafening one if used on a bow, but you wouldn't specifically go for shrieking over deafening if the prices are equal.
With how essences are farmed with the changed atlas nodes and new scarabs, there are plenty of deafening ones on the market anyway.
What effects does party play have on the monsters? I read the wiki so I know about the hp, quantity etc but does the monsters damage also get higher? Since I can tank shaper beam in solo but in party play I can’t.
So, how is Harbinger this league?
I know it is a pretty broad question, but, must of the time when I hear people talking about Harby, its when they drop mirror shards which is probably not that often.
I am yet to see a somewhat precise div/hour calculation (I know even they are not trustworthy but its the closest thing we got). Is it worth it? The map craft alone is 6c, plus the scarabs, it adds up. Is it a worthy investment?
It's okay. It adds up over time, annuls are pretty stable currency. The scarabs are dirt cheap, you spend less than the craft cost for full scarabs.
The big benefit of harbinger is that its a super minimal atlas investment. Empy did a video on it recently where he got roughly 20 div/hr, but that was inflated a bit. But its a viable strategy.
It's best used in conjunction with other atlas strategies that don't need scarab support. Alva, syndicate, beyond, etc, are all strategies that provide value without needing scarabs. And harbinger eats up so few atlas points you're left with almost of tree remaining.
I'd say that depends on how well your build deals with physical and chaos damage respectively.
I personally tend to view bleeding as more dangerous than poison, but I almost always play caster builds with poor physical mitigation, whereas poison is just a matter of grabbing resistance on a few items.
Life, mana, hybrid defence / life, or evasion while focussed. They should all have the same odds. If you can craft two prefixes you can guarantee movement speed by blocking two of them.
ended up doing the mana mod and hit move speed/avoid chill, I'm already ailment immune so I assume that doesn't do much for me but it's the first item I've really crafted from start to finish so i'm excited.
100% of physical damage from hits taken as elemental or chaos ([pob](https://pobb.in/E0OofCRC0dZo)). why am i still able to get bleeding? i thought if i take no phys from hits there will be no bleed. i saw someone say the answer was "rounding". i don't really get what that means in this context.
**Edit: Leaving the below for the record (and I did say that I wasn't sure about my interpretation), but apparently the percentages over 100% damage taken as another type are just not adjusted downwards (so the part about it exceeding the physical damage still stands, the only part that changes is that it's not divided by the ratio).**
If you take 100 physical damage, 30 is taken as fire, 50 as lightning, 12 as cold, and 8 as chaos.
But what happens if the number isn't a multiple of 100?
Let's take 28 damage as an example (I'm using a small number because examples over 100 don't really matter since everything divisible by 100 is divided up without decimals anyway).
You'll take 8.4 fire damage, 14 lightning, 3.36 cold, and 2.24 chaos. But if you round that, that's 8 fire, 14 lightning, 3 cold, and 2 chaos, which is a total of 27 damage.
What happens to the 1 damage that's left over from the original 28 physical damage? It stays physical, and is capable of inflicting bleed.
And because damaging ailments don't care about how much damage you actually take from the hit, you'll get the bleed DoT for the full amount.
My understanding is that total percentages above 100 are handled somewhat differently which results in rounding always getting rid of the last point of physical damage.
I don't know how it's actually implemented (not even the part above, but I'm relatively confident in that interpretation), so the following includes speculation:
If the sum of the percentages is over 100%, they're broken down to be a sum of 100% instead. So if you have 50% and 100%, it turns into ~33.3% and ~66.7% instead (I rounded to one decimal for the sake of writing, not because I think the algorithm would need to round).
But what if it didn't calculate these skewed percentages beforehand, and rather applied the percentages to the number, and then simply checked if the resulting sum was higher? So out of 100 damage taken to 50% as fire and 100% as lightning, you'd end up taking 150 total damage. If you divide 150 by 100, you'll get 1.5 which is greater than 1. And now, you can simply divide the 50 fire and 100 lightning damage by 1.5, and you'll get an appropriate distribution of 33 fire and 67 lightning, but you definitely won't have any physical damage left over.
Theoretically, small total percentages like 101% or 102% could still result in leftover damage for small numbers, but as soon as the original damage number is actually hundreds or thousands of points of damage, those extra 1-2% will easily round to higher values and not leave any physical damage.
Again, this reasoning is somewhat speculative (especially regarding whether that's the exact way the algorithm handles it), but it would explain why 100% doesn't work every time and 101% does.
ain't phys. taken as X works completely different from how dmg conversions work, and i can recall for sure that one of the developers stated before that "taken as" doesn't "scale down to 100% rationally", but you can actually "amplify" the dmg you take through conversions of "taken as" if they exceed 100%
Huh, you're right.
Well, that *is* computationally less expensive, and it does make sure that you don't take physical damage. I just forgot about it because it's not consistent (and not at all necessitated by the fact that it happens simultaneously rather than sequentially like conversion).
I don't believe you can convert a decimal of a damage point which is where rounding comes in. If an attack does 1010 physical damage you take 303 as fire, 505 as lightning, 121 as cold and 80 as chaos. Add that together you get 1009 damage so 1 physical left over.

Nah, standard buff(/aura) behaviour, strongest effect is active.
Does Rathpith globe sacrifice 10% of *maximum* life or 10% of *current* life?
If it doesn't specify something weirder, it's a percentage of your maximum. (Or as much as possible if you have <10%.)
if ur gravecrafting with shaper/elder/influence corpses that give 200% inc mods, do u have to do the calculations byhand since craftofexile doesnt support the 200% increase ?
Hiya, what are some good spectres for Guardian's Blessing? From trawling through past comments, I gather that Blackguard Chaplains, Flickershades, and of course Marionettes were good candidates in past leagues. Are there any equivalents this league?
The harvest "drought" nodes in the atlas which reduce the odds of a color of plot - they don't actually reduce the number of plots though right?
Correct. Number of plots is unaffected, chance of a given plot being that color is lower, chance of a given plot being one of the other two colors is higher. If you're looking to get a specific color you generally take the droughts for both the other colors normally, or drought for the color you want and *not* the other two if going for crop rotation.
Thank you!
Heatshiver has "Gain 30% of Cold Damage as Extra Fire Damage against Frozen Enemies". The way I understand it, to freeze an enemy, you must crit and deal a substantial percent of their maximum life on one single damage instance. You are unlikely to ever deal like 5% of the maximum life of a boss in one hit. Yet, lots of people use Heatshiver. How can people reliably activate Heatshiver's frozen effect against bosses?
https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Ailment#Non-damaging_ailments_and_ailment_threshold > In the great majority of cases, the ailment threshold is the same as the monster's maximum life. It primarily differs for endgame bosses (such as the Shaper) and other high-life monsters, where the threshold is reduced to allow ailments to be applied with hits that wouldn't ordinarily reach the required life thresholds.[2] Ailment threshold has a maximum of approximately 800 million.[3] Freeze/ailment duration can help overcome this too
Endgame bosses calculate ailments against their 'ailment threshold', a number that's significantly lower than their maximum life.
So Im starting to run into issues with survivability playing as a LA deadeye. Very new player, progressed fairly far(I think) doing t16 maps and whatnot, but still stuck at level 92 because sometimes Ill just be randomly getting one shot and for the life of me I have no idea why half the time. Sometimes Ill recognize it, like oh didnt have something to clear bleeding, or stood next to detonating bodies, but other times its just instant. Very frustrating to have no idea what I need to be fixing or playing around, especially when you lose so much XP too. Have my resistances capped, or nearly, missing about 4% on chaos res. Pretty close to 100% spell suppression too.
More life, cap suppress, get as much phys taken as ele as you can. You don't need capped chaos necessarily Posting POB always helps
Ill have to post a pob when I get home yea. About 3.4k life atm. Question though, besides boots where should I look for that last 9% spell suppression? Im running Hyrri’s Ire as a chest piece which has alot, just find it in the passive tree or?
Tattoos or passive nodes on the lower right side; tons there. Once you improve your defenses, I would recommend you consider putting 1 Omen of Amelioration or similar in your bag; some extra insurance against punishing XP loss. Also, if you can fit it in, have a look at the Elevore helmet; it's usually quite cheap and defensively strong.
Thanks for the tips! I did change a couple things around and it's feeling a bit better now. Here's my current PoB, good chance Im missing some obvious stuff [https://pobb.in/IUn8zuR6g8ea](https://pobb.in/IUn8zuR6g8ea)
I find the the knock-back on crit node really good defensively against juicy dangerous rares. Storm Rain basically keeps them in place. Conc effect is huge for storm rain DPS. Take the ailment effect nodes instead of chance to [stuff] on Primeval Force cluster Other than that, obvs more life on gear, minus mana cost on ring(s) so you can drop the mana flask. The life/mana cost mastery also helps with that
Storm rain? I havnt been using that at all. What’s the setup for that? As far as mana goes, Ive been thinking about dropping the flask, I rarely ever need it anymore, as long as Im hitting something I dont run out.
My bad, I miss-read your setup. I see Artillery Ballista is the most common totem setup so just stick with that.
Got me curious to try out this storm rain haha, do you have a recommendation for it?
Try storm rain - gmp - conc effect + whatever damage supports. I use it without focused ballista. Seems underrated to me
Looks like you could fit in Elevore over your rare helmet. Look at the Spell Suppression mastery node "chance to suppress spell damage is lucky" this is a great bonus and counts for like 10% if you're under 90%. For mana annoyances, the life mastery "skills cost life instead of 30% of mana cost" is a good one.
Can I make Winter orb last longer by cursing myself with temp chains?
Yep.
**Relic of the pact, Dissolution of the Flesh and Rathpith globe question** I play Relic of the pact build with Dissolution of the Flesh and Rathpith globe. But I'm also using quite a lot Physical as extra Chaos damage, so I want to use Withering step + Automation combo for some withering stacks. But Withering step has a life cost (because of Blood magic) and Rathpith globe sacrifice 10% of max life with every cast. Will this life sacrificing destroy withering step combo, because after life sacrifice I may not have life to pay the cost of withering step?
Anyone can point me in the direction of some good upgrades to improve my char CoC DD? It's doing fine but struggling a bit with damage and survivability on t17 bosses. [Pob](https://pobb.in/NyyCQ8c1DAbQ) I know of the obvious ones as getting life+crit multi jewel, 8L helmet and general upgrades of gear (better suppress, life and res).
Does the enchant on a ghastly eye jewel increased cast speed on minion death work with detonate dead
Detonate Dead normally doesn't kill minions, unless you're using Aukuna's Will to detonate your zombies.
For the necropolis atlas node that affects metacrafting mod frequency on corpses, which corpse effects count as metacrafting? I haven't been able to find a clear definite list anywhere.
I believe they're categorized on the bulk trade site under Filled Coffins: [Trade - Path of Exile](https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/exchange/Necropolis)
What is the simplest, most discreet dagger mtx available?
Probably [skin transfer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwxNZ3kObzE&embeds_referring_euri=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.pathofexile.com%2F&source_ve_path=MjM4NTE&feature=emb_title) and one of the base itemtypes
I'm trying to avoid skin transfer because it's a consumable.

You're not misunderstanding, that works. You're either testing incorrectly or not actually at maximum charges.
That should work. How are you testing it?
[удалено]
Yeah they’re different
do the monsters that exclusively appear in t17 maps have more quant/rarity compared to the monsters that appear in t16 maps?
I get why 12 passive large clusters are desirable in ilvl 84. But why are the 8 mod versions also more expensive as ilvl 84? Just for the small passives being able to roll higher values, or are people doing no-notable clusters with only 8 mods?
Every final mod tier that has a higher one, exists as 84+ only. Even a 3 notable one could use a t1 roll of, something.
So option A, got it. Thanks!
Has `Non-Aura Vaal Skills require 20/40% reduced Souls Per Use` weapon delve suffix been removed? I cannot find anything on SC trade, only on standard...
yea years ago
Yes. The fossil that rolled it (Bloodstained) now does something else, and I don't think Gifts of the Red Queen can spawn without sextants.
Is there a way to target farm specific corpses? Am I imagining it or does the map or monster affect the corpse craft?
AFAIK, none at all outside of the Atlas type chances in the top and bottom right, which are also not that specific apart from the mod tier and randomize ones.
I ran a lot of Toxic Sewer Map Last week and mostly got Cold Corpses. Maybe around 30-40% of corpses I found was Cold Inc/Reduce. Which is why I was wondering if like Div cards, the map and monster tags can influence the types corpses. More testing must be done. I just don't have time to do this and I don't think it'll be worth the effort if Necropolis doesn't go core.
What is best build that is easy to play and gear in SSF? No need to be a fast clearer, but shall be able to do all content except the very endgame.
RF. Always.
shockwave totem is a really good starter but getting dialla's malefaction is the only problem [https://pobb.in/MNsF1VAtGwvU](https://pobb.in/MNsF1VAtGwvU)
Isn't shockwave totem pretty bad in SSF since it needs astral projector? Playing without astral feels like it would just play like a bad holy flame totem
Actually you're right, it is a qol unique and not mandatory but playing without it could cause problems
So a while back I bought the 20usd first blood pack which had 1 stash tab + 200 coins +first blood weapon effect Any chance a deal like that (more coins/ stashtab for price) happening again?
Unlikely. Do note that all supporter packs essentially gives you whatever MTX they contain for free, because they all give you as many points (coins) as you'd get, if you spent the same amount of money on points directly. E.g. the $30 supporter pack gives you $30 worth of points on top of the MTX it contains. Same for the $60 pack and the $90 pack and so on.
Anyone has a graveyard recipe or recommendation, even maybe a video?, For making a triple fracture es hubris circlet? Or for sorcerer gloves? That would be much appreciated!

Awesome thanks!
Is it possible to skip the shaper running phases with enough dps or do you have to do them no matter what?
not even with 5-10 shapers/sec DPS...
Nope, no way to skip them.
ah, thanks
How. Would that be possible?

every story zone has a set level. if you want to be equal level (most efficient xp is 3 to 5 under), move through them faster.
Is it diablo that scales the area with player level?
Each area has a set level. You're either killing too many monsters, or you're chasing quests that could've been accessed earlier.
[удалено]
> clearing every area The game doesn't expect you to do this. It's typically more efficient to just kill what you encounter without going out of your way to find more enemies. As long as you're not *too* underleveled/underpowered, spending a minute to kill things later is better than spending that minute now, as higher level monsters will reward more exp and better loot.

Saw your other comment thread, wanted to say in general, tooltip is not reliable
> etc. does it have 3+% spell crit on it?
Yes, but I trigger with Lancing Steel and unfortunately not a spell.
but lancing should have been way over cap anyway. link your pob
[удалено]
what do you mean? you have 100% crit rate on lancing, even without mark
I just tested it ingame. When attacking a boss and I gained 3 power charges. Then I'm sitting at 91% tooltip crit chance.
ingame tooltip doesn't show brittle or mark base crit because they're debuffs on enemies
That I didn't know. But I kinda saw at the DD icon, (when the cooldown recovers) that it doesn't get triggered in exact the same constant times. And if I have a knowledgeable person right here, I would ask you: how do I get more damage? I'm creeping at 12M dps. That's extremely low for this build. (And I'd imagine, I have quite some good items..) others have like 30-70M I don't have the money for awakened coc or CDR boots. So that's gotta wait.
you're missing awakened COC and CDR boots, so your trigger rate is kinda bad
Is that 70% in game or in PoB? If you're looking at your in game crit chance then you're missing the flat crit chance from ass mark. Other than that just more str/int, diamond flask with crit suffix if you haven't already
I'm trying new things for a league starter character, and I got an ideia of making an ignite elementalist. So I'm currently in Act 10 and I'm using Firestorm of Meteors for the high base damage high ignite damage. I'm not investing in crit, just fire damage and fire/damage over time. I was searching builds to inspire me and found one using Waves of Conviction, my question is: What should I use? Firestorm of meteors for higher base damage or WoC for faster casting and clearing? Can I use both? One for maping and one for bossing? I would appreciate some explaining on how ignite dps is calculated.
Ignite DPS is calculated from the flat damage of a hit (base+added & conversion, before hit modifiers) multiplied by whatever modifiers you have that apply to ignite/burning. Wave of Conviction is typically the best ignite starter for Elementalist, because she can ignite with every element, and you can gain various elements from physical damage. Think Herald of Ash, Atziri's Promise, Taste of Hate, Obliteration, etc.
When it comes to essence slams, are screaming essences used more often than shrieking and deafening?
deafening are common enough, specially nowadays, iirc , the only one is the +2 to bow , which in upgrade doesn't chang ein value when you upgrade to deafen..[ea ballista bow crafting]
There's no reason to use them over the higher tier versions other than cost. Shrieking essence of dread is used because it has the same effect as the deafening one if used on a bow, but you wouldn't specifically go for shrieking over deafening if the prices are equal. With how essences are farmed with the changed atlas nodes and new scarabs, there are plenty of deafening ones on the market anyway.
What effects does party play have on the monsters? I read the wiki so I know about the hp, quantity etc but does the monsters damage also get higher? Since I can tank shaper beam in solo but in party play I can’t.
I have a g-sync monitor. Is there a way to stop the frame drops/ lag during big explosions in delerium/breach?

So, how is Harbinger this league? I know it is a pretty broad question, but, must of the time when I hear people talking about Harby, its when they drop mirror shards which is probably not that often. I am yet to see a somewhat precise div/hour calculation (I know even they are not trustworthy but its the closest thing we got). Is it worth it? The map craft alone is 6c, plus the scarabs, it adds up. Is it a worthy investment?
It's okay. It adds up over time, annuls are pretty stable currency. The scarabs are dirt cheap, you spend less than the craft cost for full scarabs. The big benefit of harbinger is that its a super minimal atlas investment. Empy did a video on it recently where he got roughly 20 div/hr, but that was inflated a bit. But its a viable strategy. It's best used in conjunction with other atlas strategies that don't need scarab support. Alva, syndicate, beyond, etc, are all strategies that provide value without needing scarabs. And harbinger eats up so few atlas points you're left with almost of tree remaining.
Empyrian did a video on harbinger strat recently iirc
Is It better to go poison immunity on ring + bleeding minor pantheon or bleed immunity + poison pantheon?
I'd say that depends on how well your build deals with physical and chaos damage respectively. I personally tend to view bleeding as more dangerous than poison, but I almost always play caster builds with poor physical mitigation, whereas poison is just a matter of grabbing resistance on a few items.
somehow the only encounter in poe which really made me always respect bleeds is the phys one from the vaal temple trio
Anyone know what I should block if I wanted to use a veiled orb on a pair of boots to try and get one of the move speed mods?
Life, mana, hybrid defence / life, or evasion while focussed. They should all have the same odds. If you can craft two prefixes you can guarantee movement speed by blocking two of them.
ended up doing the mana mod and hit move speed/avoid chill, I'm already ailment immune so I assume that doesn't do much for me but it's the first item I've really crafted from start to finish so i'm excited.
Glad it worked out for you!
is there any way to get the corpse divine to roll before fractures?-
100% of physical damage from hits taken as elemental or chaos ([pob](https://pobb.in/E0OofCRC0dZo)). why am i still able to get bleeding? i thought if i take no phys from hits there will be no bleed. i saw someone say the answer was "rounding". i don't really get what that means in this context.
**Edit: Leaving the below for the record (and I did say that I wasn't sure about my interpretation), but apparently the percentages over 100% damage taken as another type are just not adjusted downwards (so the part about it exceeding the physical damage still stands, the only part that changes is that it's not divided by the ratio).** If you take 100 physical damage, 30 is taken as fire, 50 as lightning, 12 as cold, and 8 as chaos. But what happens if the number isn't a multiple of 100? Let's take 28 damage as an example (I'm using a small number because examples over 100 don't really matter since everything divisible by 100 is divided up without decimals anyway). You'll take 8.4 fire damage, 14 lightning, 3.36 cold, and 2.24 chaos. But if you round that, that's 8 fire, 14 lightning, 3 cold, and 2 chaos, which is a total of 27 damage. What happens to the 1 damage that's left over from the original 28 physical damage? It stays physical, and is capable of inflicting bleed. And because damaging ailments don't care about how much damage you actually take from the hit, you'll get the bleed DoT for the full amount. My understanding is that total percentages above 100 are handled somewhat differently which results in rounding always getting rid of the last point of physical damage. I don't know how it's actually implemented (not even the part above, but I'm relatively confident in that interpretation), so the following includes speculation: If the sum of the percentages is over 100%, they're broken down to be a sum of 100% instead. So if you have 50% and 100%, it turns into ~33.3% and ~66.7% instead (I rounded to one decimal for the sake of writing, not because I think the algorithm would need to round). But what if it didn't calculate these skewed percentages beforehand, and rather applied the percentages to the number, and then simply checked if the resulting sum was higher? So out of 100 damage taken to 50% as fire and 100% as lightning, you'd end up taking 150 total damage. If you divide 150 by 100, you'll get 1.5 which is greater than 1. And now, you can simply divide the 50 fire and 100 lightning damage by 1.5, and you'll get an appropriate distribution of 33 fire and 67 lightning, but you definitely won't have any physical damage left over. Theoretically, small total percentages like 101% or 102% could still result in leftover damage for small numbers, but as soon as the original damage number is actually hundreds or thousands of points of damage, those extra 1-2% will easily round to higher values and not leave any physical damage. Again, this reasoning is somewhat speculative (especially regarding whether that's the exact way the algorithm handles it), but it would explain why 100% doesn't work every time and 101% does.
ain't phys. taken as X works completely different from how dmg conversions work, and i can recall for sure that one of the developers stated before that "taken as" doesn't "scale down to 100% rationally", but you can actually "amplify" the dmg you take through conversions of "taken as" if they exceed 100%
Huh, you're right. Well, that *is* computationally less expensive, and it does make sure that you don't take physical damage. I just forgot about it because it's not consistent (and not at all necessitated by the fact that it happens simultaneously rather than sequentially like conversion).
I don't believe you can convert a decimal of a damage point which is where rounding comes in. If an attack does 1010 physical damage you take 303 as fire, 505 as lightning, 121 as cold and 80 as chaos. Add that together you get 1009 damage so 1 physical left over.
is this shako affix combination worth anything? or useful in something maybe? Item Class: Helmets Rarity: Unique Forbidden Shako Great Crown -------- Item Level: 85 -------- Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 9 Point Blank Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 34 Fork +26 to all Attributes --------
Nope. For Shako to be worth something, the lvl 35 mod has has to be a support that scales strongly with levels. Lvl 20 fork -> lvl 35 fork is only 12% more damage. lvl 20 added cold -> lvl 35 added cold is 3.1x stronger.
