First for existence is pain

There should be a skill gem the opposite of Spell Echo. Like it reduces your cast speed for a huge damage boost.

Someone will actually buy this youtube.com/watch?v=JwaIv45A97s

...

yeah the game totally needs more MORE damage supports

shit like elemental focus, controlled destruction, concentrated effect, trap and mine damage, pierce, slower proj, hypothermia, rapid decay, void manipulation, less duration are clearly not enough

why is cospris malice so shit.
why did coc need to get nerfed so hard.
there's no fun in this gam anymore.
just BV.

looks pretty cool and much more visually indicative than CA's default stink cloud

I'd buy it in a heartbeat if I had any desire to play CA whatsoever.

>there's no fun in this gam anymore.
some guy on ehc killed the shaper with kitava's thirst, the cast-on-cast helmet, so sounds like you just need to become better at theorycrafting

>wanders will never be good again

>what are obliteration wanders
>what is shitting on end game content with 1 alch wands

>what is a boss at the end of the map

shitcrows??? nah not a fan

He wouldn't know. He's clearly never played the game.

whenever i feel bad for being shit at the game, i am reminded you exist and temporarily feel much better

his build is literally a shit version of CI BV pathfinder.
Kitavas procs his curses..which are 60% less effective against bosses.
Every pathfinder could do shaper better and faster than he did (look at raizs kill).
Hes slow in maps and kitavas is not even needed.
Spending 100 mana to get a 30% chance to proc all spells is awfull.

reminder that crows are cute and smart

>Spending 100 mana to get a 30% chance to proc all spells is awfull.
It's just not as braindead as slapping any spell(s) you want on a CoC setup and using a vagan dagger to never miss, probably why you hate it.

...

>holding sharp objects in your mouth
>smart

she has no hands though

crows have feethands though

its shit.

If softcore players are shitcrows, what animal are hardcore players

opossums

slugcorers

What ascendencies are the worst right now?

I really want to squeeze that till it pops

help

a bull
fucking you are wife

literally jumping spiders:

>All members of Portia have instinctive hunting tactics for their most common prey, but can improvise by trial and error against unfamiliar prey or in unfamiliar situations, and then remember the new approach.

>They are capable of trying out a behavior to obtain feedback regarding success or failure, and they can plan ahead (as it seems from their detouring behavior).

>Portia species can make detours to find the best attack angle against dangerous prey, even when the best detour takes a Portia out of visual contact with the prey,[8] and sometimes the planned route leads to abseiling down a silk thread and biting the prey from behind. Such detours may take up to an hour,[13] and a Portia usually picks the best route even if it needs to walk past an incorrect route.[14]:422 If a Portia makes a mistake while hunting another spider, it may itself be killed.[13]

>Portia uses trial-and-error to successfully solve a confinement problem (i.e. how to escape from an island surrounded by water) both when correct choices are rewarded and when incorrect choices are punished.[15]

Raider and Hierophant are pretty garbage

raider isnt bad, just uninteresting


hieropant is THE support ascendancy, and its great at that

quinta decoy totems very gud support

Raider is shit, hierophant is ok at what it does but the 8% less per totem is way too harsh.

Hierophant is the totem ascendancy. Guardian is the support.

Honestly, that probably wouldn't be too bad.

What's the best class for a beginner in HC? I don't care if I don't have the highest DPS, I want to be tanky and get used to playing Hardcore. Also, where do you look for builds? The game's forums?

oh right i got them mixed up

Probably a Chieftain, totem builds are safe to play, you have tons of life, armour, and life regen which combine for a very forgiving playstyle and Iron Will ensures you have comparable if not greater damage than non-crit spellcasters for a fraction of their cost.

>Also, where do you look for builds? The game's forums?
Yes

Duelist -> champion
Marauder -> juggernaut

duelist slayer or champion have a good balance between defense and damage

Try the forums to just look around. Can also try buildofexile.com

If you want a good HC viable build, you could go the ancient war-chief totem Champion build

Gonna have to agree to an extent with this user. A totem build for your first venture to hardcore would be a wise choice.

Only thing I'm not on board with is going iron will only because it can make itemization a little unintuitive among other things.

Thanks for the suggestions, it's the perfect moment for a fresh start!!!

What is the reason behind no one taking the node 'indomitable' for 30% armor and 20% less damage taken from crits

It was good when you didn't need to go out of the way to grab it.

You know, free.

Hey!

Doesn't seem worth, crits are dangerous but they aren't really common, you're getting 20% less damage 5% of the time. The 5% physical reduction node seems more worthwhile, or end charges.

Last time on /poeg/

Sorry it just doesn't feel the same without it user.

just build damage

:^)

momohime should be left well alone.

Great you are in charge now!

I'm not cut out for this level of responsibility.

poeurl.com/MhP

will this get me through hc?

armor sucks
if you're worried about crits then get the chest that just makes you immune to them.

...

It's not "20% less damage", it's "20% reduced extra damage"

If a boss with a 100 base default attack crits you for say, 250 damage (this is common with crit map mod and bosses inherent higher crit mult), then you take 100+(150-150*0.20) = 220 damage, not 250*(1-0.20) = 200 damage.

that shit only drops from the guardian maps tho, will be over 100 chaos minimum

fucking kek

You won't make it out of normal.

Enfeeble is the single strongest defensive curse in the game, learn to use it, armour alone is paper against anything that actually hits hard, and is useless vs elemental damage

i'd gaze into her abyss

lol

are you sure it's 100 + 150 - 150 * 0.2 and not 100 * (1 + 1.5 - 0.2) ?

as in, it doesn't reduce the crit multiplier from 250% to 230%?

I'd let her shape my dick, if you know what I mean

The game is meant to be a learning experience. Screwing up is fine since that gives you something to learn from.

Because you have screwed up big time.

>nerf EQ
>nerf Jugg
>keep slayer OP
>buff BV

Mhm....

best totem: anything
actually retarded
want first fuck time
level die
fucking nodes
increased shit

How much life should I have by Cruel A4

totems really are fucking op though

Yes, I'm sure, this has been covered multiple times in the past

If it were a straight up reduced crit mult, then you could effectively nullify 90% of crits in game to regular hits with just that node and a belt of the deceiver, but it's not the case

around 2k, give or take, depends on your build though

I'm usually at 3-3.5k by the time I reach cruel Malachai at level 55-ish but I play on the left side of the tree

last time on /poeg/ only speaks truth

actually retarded
never better
literally poison
fucking melee

sometimes i think its not really my build that is op

its me that is op

Thinking about doing one of the following:

Vortexru
Siege Ballistaru
Fire nova mineru
Lightning arrowru


What do?

Vortex is sleeper OP, I'd recommend that

killyourselfaru

Right on, Vortex just so happens to be one of the builds I was leaning towards.

okayru

Is frost blades at all viable in EHC? Or would i be wasting my time? If so, what kind of supports/build would you recommend i run it on?

Yeah frost blades is pretty beastly if you can get past the namelock bullshit.

>There are fist weapons in this game.

Fuck yeah.

What's a good build that I can use claws with

What is the best single target fire or cold elemental spell? Non-vaal.

>What's a good build that I can use claws with
hahahaha oh sweet summer child

What is this namelock people keep talking about?

Someone farm The Scourge for me and I'll let you know after the league is over.

this is why people leave this place

lightning strike
molten strike
spooky toss
frost blades

wat
this isn't WoW
thanks

Yeah because people ask questions and asspained elitist NEET faggots don't help.

No, it's because PoE sucks.anyway.

Firestorm/Vortex

Vortex poison? Did it get buffed? It was kinda...not shit, but nothing more than whelming when I last played and it was newly released.

poison? huh? Vortex the cold skill, not BV

Then leave, you cancerous piece of shit. This is why people don't like you.

alright I'm going to boot up PoE and have some fun! you guys can't stop me!

>ancestral protector
>litterally 20% attack speed and decent dps with zero investment

Sorry for my outburst. You don't have to go, just please disconnect your keyboard.
