So is earthquake dropping bleed/poison, less duration, or just taking the nerf?
Angel Murphy
What skill are you gonna use on your raider build, boys? And are you going life or ci?
Brody Cruz
So as a summary from the previous thread:
BF raider is stronger defensivly and assassin is the glasscannon?
Camden Wood
not even going to bother seeing as every mouthbreather is going to be playing it
Camden Morales
Both black tea and sharo are better than that whore
Grayson Powell
assassin is overkill. i did the maths and it'd put you at 113% crit with mediocre gear. the crit cap is 95%. assassin provides literally zero defense or utility.
raider is more well rounded. lots of damage with lots of defense and utility. there's really no reason to go assassin
basically: assassin = shitcore; raider = leetcore
Nicholas Lopez
bf raider if you get lucky/rich enough to get good crit chance/multi items, weaker vs bosses bf ass if you don't want to worry too much about crit in items, better vs bosses
Julian Lee
Remember: you have 48 hours to empty your nutsack
Blake Powell
>assassin provides literally zero defense Toxic Delivery is 10% reduced damage taken from DoT, which is great against traps and phys/elemental degen. Shadow start also wastes fewer points, resulting in potentially higher ES.

>mfw i was using a Raider for over half the duration of last league and used to say that it's viable >All these people rolling Raiders (the buffs helped but still) Is that what being a hipster feels like?
Jaxson Peterson
Sort of tempted to try out my league build on my old character since they're getting a free passive reset after the 2.5 patch drops.
Brody Jones
I usually nolife at the beginning of the league and burn out after 1-2 weeks. In that time i usually farm around 15-20 ex, but i can not get full tier 1 gear with that (like top notch crit rolls on jewelery etc).
Is raider still for me or wil i find myself lacking in damage once i reach the higher part of maps?
Jonathan Hall
toxic delivery is shit
Aiden Wilson
You don't drop less duration on earthquake ever. Besides that you likely also want to use a warped timepiece.
Guess it just means dropping voidheart, it wasn't really that great anymore after the nerf anyway (voidheart). Bleed and poison is still so broken as a mechanic.
Matthew Stewart
How much weaker against bosses are we talking here? Isnt boss damage kinda the only thing that really matters once you get to endgame?
Easton Sanders
you will need a nice ele/crit vagan dagger in high level maps. that's going to be hard to get
the rest of it is just basic CI gear
Jack Parker
PAINT YOUR FUCKIN BUILDS YOU FUCKIN NERDS
Gabriel Reyes
Yes, something getting popular always ruins it. It's like being a GitS fan and now Hollywood is making a movie about it with Scarlett and it's going to be westernized and watered down and cliche and the plebs will love it.
Carter Stewart
>drop voidheart >bleed and poison still broken hmmm
Blake Adams
Arnt vagan dagger usually just an ex for a good base and then mastercraft?
Caleb Walker
ok but I'll be edging for a whole day so you'll have to wait
Nicholas Gutierrez
just use a Disfavour bro
Gavin Ortiz
probably a lot more than that because it will be meta
Lincoln King
A LOT unless you are going against a bleed/poison immune uber atiziri and shapers will take a raider with the same items at least double the time if no triple the time desu
Thomas Reyes
>not going on a 24-hour fapping marathon What are you, 40?
Isaac Parker
elemental necromancer mirror arrow Or CI poison occultist mirror arrow
Nathaniel Green
Can you even make this shit up at this point?
Elijah Williams
How many frenzy charges can raider even realisticly get?
I read everywhere "lmoa 10 frenzy charges" but you only get 2 from tree (without wasting a shitton), 1 from ascendancy and then one from darkray vectors so you're at 7.
Any other good way to get more?
you mean a lot more than that for a base?
wew, i didnt think assassin has that much of an advantage there
Evan Nelson
How so? 10 frenzy charges is a generic 40% more damage which double dips on Poison damage. I haven't run the math but it should be surprisingly similar to Assassin.
Nolan Bell
degenerate retards
Aiden Stewart
I rip the skin and it hurts
Angel Lewis
Bandit reward. You can corrupt Darkray Vectors for +1 frenzy, but it might be a lot more expensive this league.
Leo Mitchell
I'd really love to see the math on this, but i have no idea how bleed and poison work
Jonathan Harris
you don't need a vagan dagger at all
Zachary White
Sources of generic damage (such as those provided by a Scourge claw or frenzy charges) double-dip on poison. More damage on the initial hit resulting on a bigger poison stack, then more damage on poison DoT. Triple-dipping if you include Vulnerability.
Daniel Evans
>implying
Wyatt Morris
retard
William Lee
But can 32% more damage outweigh the huge crit multi advantage assassin has? Ass also deals bleeding damage
Liam Hernandez
3 base, +2 from tree, +1 from ascendancy, +1 from bandit, +1 from darkray vector, +2 from corrupted boots/ammy.
Michael Green
Is this essentially immunity to freeze or would frozen monsters still be able to move?
Noah Jones
if you are going raider you will have a shitton of dex alrdy, your hit chance should be at 93/94% better use some meme unique or an insane dagger instead of wasting your time with a vagan dagger
Christopher Wood
They'd be able to move, yet they would have the debuff. It's worded like that juggernaut node, which works like that.
Jacob Ortiz
you're accuracy will be like 73%
Isaiah Gomez
8 is realistic, 10 is not, corrupted +1 darkrays were expensive enough without Raider being thrown in the spotlight and +1 amulets are also very expensive if you don't want garbage rolls
Kevin Cox
>if you don't want garbage rolls factor that in, scrub
David Martin
I'd say +9 is realistic. I agree the corrupted Darkray Vectors are gonna be too expensive, especially in this league. The ammy is not hard to get a roll that's better because the frenzy charge is good enough in most cases to make up for 3 shit stats.
Carter Ramirez
No idea, I don't care enough about the skill to run the math, I'll leave the exercise to those who don't mind playing cancer builds
Easton Carter
>his build has no max block
Kevin Scott
-30% reduced block chance is now a map mod
Nathaniel Cox
Why ele? Isnt bf physical?
Luke Nelson
Like most weapon skills it's base weapon damage, not base physical damage. So it will do whatever damage your weapon does.
Lincoln Brown
why isn't there a pause function?
Michael Morgan
What would you guys play if BF didn't exist?
Luis Cooper
Oh, thanks, i idnt know that. So with raider having that 40% increased ele damage, an ele dagger would be even better?
Justin Kelly
>Playing FotM builds >Ever Not only they make the necessary equipment unnecessarily expensive,it also feels kinda boring seeing everyone using the same stuff (last league when i traded there was a 80% chance it'd be a Pathfinder,now i guess this will change to Raider though).
Andrew Evans
Where do bino BF users take their accuracy from?
Josiah Roberts
so you can test it properly, RNGesus blessed you
Elijah Roberts
you can get away with playing fotm memebuilds if you are good enough to stay ahead of the curve. you have to be the first one to maps, the first one to get lots of currency, the first one to buy the gear you need
Jacob Roberts
Hinekora's Sight
Colton Perry
...
Kevin Taylor
Just because you're the first to something doesn't mean you'll get to be the first to buy something, especially from a savvy trader who would have no incentive to sell something like Bino's fast so you're still paying a premium tax for shit just because you have 500 other players doing the same thing as you
Jackson Rogers
True,but all this sounds like such a bother.Maybe i've been burned out desu,but i prefer taking it slowly these days.
Charles Peterson
with all the scripts people run these days to snipe gear off poe.trade it will be more difficult than ever. on top of that there are entire guilds dedicated to manipulating and controlling the market. trade in this game is a fucking disaster
but 2ex at the start of the league is more valuable than 2ex a few weeks in. it's much easier to get what you need early on
Jaxon Harris

Does non-crit frenzy blade flurry raider work? with the two rigwald weapons?
or wait, are those weapons not on temp league

Deadeye :^).
Benjamin Gonzalez

Thomas Gutierrez
There are zero builds I actually want to play...
Nolan Bailey
The gear you need is just rares though.
Sure week 1 a high dps dagger will be really sought after but the skill is busted enough that it doesn't matter.
David Young
why not
Christian Morris
You can get them through divination cards.
Joshua Ortiz
This is my current skill tree for my templar. What are my possibilites? Didn't ascend yet because jesus fuck i'll need a whole fucking day to clear everything. P.S:New player,no i don't want to look up a build i am curious if i fucked up royally or i am on a good way. A little help with active skills would be nice because currently i focus on lightning and cold ele damage.Usualy rotation is curse into 4 orb of storm and if something still lives than i kite it a bit with cold damage while zapping them from above.
Eli Morgan
do you think dual rigwald weapons could do t13+ ?
especially with those retarded raider changes
Ryder Foster
I don't like the gameplay I dnno
John Wright
I think so? I always wanted to play the rigwald build but I keep forgetting to buy the weapons at the end of a league.
Joseph Garcia

Jackson Williams
I don't get this. I never linked my accounts. Why does this show up?
Hudson Allen
In the off chance this is not a bait, there are several glaring mistakes you've made already.
First skipping life nodes is not an option unless you're trying to go very fast and are an experienced racer, unlike in most ARPGs you cannot skip the defensive nodes here.
Second, hybrid builds such as what you seem to be going for with Precision, Catalyse, Galvanic Hammer and a bunch of elemental spells simply do not work. All you're doing is splitting your efficiency. PoE rewards specialization, not random mish mash of skills.
Third, upgrade your fucking life flasks, NPCs are there for a reason.
>What are my possibilites? Delete character, read a basic guide and start anew, it's evident you will go nowhere in this game if you keep deciding to wing it up and following your instinct which led you to this mess of a tree before even the end of normal.
>P.S:New player that's obvious you're building your tree around damage when you should be building it around either life or es while picking up some key damage nodes when it's convenient. Taking two travel nodes for a small crit wheel is really bad.
Angel Ortiz
how is this of any relevance to us just wait for Neversink to update his
Matthew Rivera
I see.Thanks for the reply.
It's ok user.You can laugh at me i won't get mad.I was kinda expecting that i am doing it wrong so duh.
Andrew Gonzalez
>Emmitt has exposed this data for the community to use. You will be able to find it here. Wait, what? GGG is officially endorsing Emmitt? must feel bad for all the other tree planner guys

Jason Long
to sell shit on poe.trade?
acquisition is unable to fetch my character names.
i figured that's because there are no characters shown in my forum profile, which i thought must be because i never linked the accounts.
or am i wrong here?
Xavier Lopez
Most of this was because i was careless and didn't know what the enemy can do and approached mindlessly and went on autopilot mode then got fucked.
