    AOE Radius should have two decimal places

    Posted: 26 Feb 2019 03:44 AM PST

    Right now you have to open path of building to see if an AOE node increases your AOE. That's really dumb, all nodes should help you. If radius had two decimal places, every node would increase AOE.

    My wife's first interaction with rigtheous fire.

    Posted: 26 Feb 2019 12:32 PM PST

    I finally got her to sit down and play again. We have been leveling characters through betrayal hardcore and made it to act 3. Shes playing a witch with arc, and, has a tendency to equip every blue gem and see what it does. You can see where this is going.

    In act three, imperial gardens on our way to dominus. Stoked because she has been talking about wanting to unlock scion. We kill a trash mob and i see righteous fire drop. Think, oh, cool gem. Permenant allocation gave it to her. I turn and start guiding us to the sceptre of god's entrance.

    Im killing the next mob and notice her shields plummeting then her health. FUCK

    BABE NO UNEQUIP THAT SKILL.

    She didnt even notice her heatlh dropping before it hit 1 and turned off.

    Gave a quick thank you to jesus that we had cleared most the mobs in the zone and were backtracking past an empty area when this happened. We in act 5 now killin it. Just wanted to share this. Gave me a good laugh once my heart started beating again.

    [Survey] Vitality: Buff effect? Reduce mana reserved? or other?

    Posted: 26 Feb 2019 07:37 AM PST

    1) Do you think Vitality aura needs a change?

    2) Why?

    3) if yes, what would you do to make it better?


    I'm not supposed to give my opinion but all ill say is that a level 20 aura that reserves 35% mana grants the same buff as a White Amulet(Marble)

    Do you think amethyst rings could use a buff to their implicit?

    Posted: 25 Feb 2019 11:00 PM PST

    The base implicit only gives 9-13% chaos resistance, which I feel is way too less for an item, given that most other elemental resist bases give far more flexibility in numbers. Would something like 15-25% be balanced?

    Amount of Mobs on yellow Maps(T6-T10) Statistics

    Posted: 25 Feb 2019 06:30 PM PST

    I am back with the second part of the mob count statistics, this time its for yellow maps.

    Will try to finish everything before the start of synthesis so will see how that turnes out.

    Mobs were counted on completely clean maps with rampage and very high shatter chance.

    Keep in mind a sample size of 10 is not perfect so it could be different with a bigger sample size

    but it should still give you a good idea.

    Spreadsheet

    Video

    Spoiler:

    The worst map by far was Primordial pool with 395 Mobs.

    Vault was in the worst 5 with 458.

    The top 5 had actually good maps in it like Precinct (644).

    The first place was Bazaar (656 Mobs) which surprised me, i actually tried a few more of them

    just to see if something went wrong but turns out bazaar has a pretty decent mob count.

    Spreadsheet for white Maps

    I will put everything together when i am done with red maps.

    The Masked Man Maloney Mystery - Solved

    Posted: 25 Feb 2019 09:48 PM PST

    So Jun among other tidbits seem to indicate that we might know who this Riker Maloney is. After some late league lore looking (I'm bored don't you judge me!) I can "unveil" (heh.. ) the man behind the mysterious mask.

    Spoilers below:

    Drum roll .....

    ...

    ..

    .

    He is Bestel, or rather Bestel has an Alter Ego "the midnight tinkerer"

    My Reasoning includes these lines:

    • A dashing Duelist, drenched and deserted on the dreary strand
    • A sodden Shadow staggered from the surf and surveyed the somber strand
    • A tyrannical Templar, to be tested and tempered (and others) - Bestel

    Compare to:

    • More meddling in my marvelous machinations?
    • Swiftly shall I sweep this skirmish for the Syndicate!
    • I seek to circumvent a similar sentence (and others) -Riker

    Both love Alliteration

    Look closely at them on POE wiki the eyes are the same. https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Riker_Maloney,_Midnight_Tinkerer
    https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Bestel

    Imagine Bestels voice without too much drink... Now imagine Rikers voice without the vocal effect they put on it to simulate the mask. They are the same.

    And now for the "Lore... LEL" replies ;)

    Best way to farm a HH at league start?

    Posted: 26 Feb 2019 06:35 AM PST

    My goal for Betrayal was to farm a headhunter, and I'm still working on it, but it has taken me all league to really figure out how to consistently make more currency than I spend.

    I started the league out with a windripper with the intention of going for MF and farming Nurse cards, but I ended up basically spending as much as I took in on trying to get the build to a point where I was dealing enough damage and not dying every map. In the end I made it to 88 and found an Unnatural Instincts gem. With it I went from 1 ex to 17 ex which I decided I would invest in a new bossing character to try and make more currency as I couldn't sustain tower maps, or really do enough DPS to clear then quickly.

    I spent about 10 ex on an Arc Miner that I used to complete another goal, uber atziri, then attempted uber elder, but needed help to finish. That character has been amazing and I really feel like it is the safest character I've ever played. I actually enjoyed pushing the harder content and clearing t16s without much difficulty, though it really was noticably slower. It is now 92 and, my highest level character ever, and I've farmed back up to 12 ex, but I'm no where near the 40 ex a HH is.

    So, how do I refine my process? What can I do to better prepare a character and get to my headhunter goal next league? What builds are the best to farm with? Is it better to farm the div cards to eventually get there piece by piece, or to stockpile currency?

    After beating Shaper on my Herald of Purity Guardian Summoner, here are my thoughts whats good and bad about these Minion.

    Posted: 26 Feb 2019 07:55 AM PST

    before i start here are some keynotes you should need to know:

    Herald of Purtiy:

    When you kill an enemy while you have this buff, this skill will summon a Sentinel of Purity, or refresh the duration and life of an existing one instead if you have the maximum number of them.

    Maximum 4 Summoned Sentinels of Purity

    20% chance to Summon a Sentinel of Purity when you Hit a Rare or Unique Enemy

    Guardian:

    Radiant Crusade

    10% more Damage while you have at least one nearby Ally

    You and Allies affected by your Aura Skills deal 20% increased Damage

    Herald of Purity has 40% increased Buff Effect

    Summoned Sentinels of Purity have 50% increased Area of Effect

    Unwavering Crusade

    Summoned Sentinels use Crusade Slam

    100% increased Minion Accuracy Rating

    Minions Intimidate Enemies for 4 seconds on Hit

    If you've Hit an Enemy Recently, you and nearby Allies Regenerate 3% of Life per second

    10% increased Area of Effect for each Summoned Sentinel of Purity

    I did not find any informations about a duration, but the Minions have only a certain life duration until they disappear

    Since i decided to do a pure Summoner which means all the dmg comes from the Minions i will tell you my thoughts of this point of view (maybe they will be different from a Purity Summoner who has a second dmg Skill).

    Here is a whole Shaper run where you can see some of the problems i mention below

    artificial intelligence:

    What i noticed very early while playing with these Minions is that the AI seems to be the worst of all Minions in Wreaclast. Sometimes the Minions run straight in one direction and try to kill an enemy 100m away from you while a Rare is right next to you. So you have to call them to you and hope they recognize it. You will see something similar in my Shaper Video where i died to normal enemys.

    And sometimes they just sit next to you and do nothing, looking around while the enemy hordes are hunting you like a chicken.

    When it comes to single target like Bosses its no problem and works very good. The minions just throw themself on the target and beat him to death. All fine.

    My Suggestion: So i wonder if there is a priorized target and if not i think the best solution for this problem would be that the Minions always attack the nearest enemy to your Character.

    Sustain:

    As i wrote before you have two different way to sustain your Minions. Kill enemys by yourself or hitting Rare/Bosses (wich means on Rare/Bosses you have a 100% uptime without any problems).

    There is only one big problem imho when it comes to regular mapping and that is, that you need to kill the enemys yourself to (re)summon them. The solution i found for myself was by taking a "Writhing Jar", pop out the worms and kill them to summon the Minions. So far so good, but if you reach a state where you dont have any flask charges and your minions are gone (because they only last for a certain time) you have only three options left:

    1. kill something with a dps skill (but this means you need to scale minion skill AND a dps skill)
    2. go out of map and refill flasks (Writhing Jar) in hideout
    3. find a rare so you can hit to resummon your minions (you will see this in my shaper video where i run from pack to pack looking for a rare minion)

    My Suggestion: Imho this could be better done by giving the minions the ability to resummon themself (or extend their duration) if they kill the enemys OR remove the duration and make them permanent minions after they spawned like spectres.

    and at last here is my PoB from my Shaper kill: https://pastebin.com/pnaTp08T
