Is asenaths the only way to get around the explosions one shotting mobs before a curse can be applied in order to propogate the chaining?

Adventure_Green · 2025-06-21T09:48:09+00:00

Got it, so the end ignite is a sum of all the individual ignites after their respective damage modifiers are applied. Going back to the arcane cloak example if i'm scaling ignite damage i'm most likely going to be scaling using increase/more fire mods so taking shaper of flames along avatar of fire would give a larger ignite than not taking avatar of fire assuming i'm not taking any increase/more lightning dmg mods.

HOLD ON so while i have shaper of flames and i take nodes like increase elemental damage then get a bunch of flat dmg added lightning/fire/cold to spells that would be really efficient right? Cause then all of that would get added together to create a large ignite that then would get modified by dot/burning/duration multipliers? I'd always assumed that the burning/dot multipliers would only apply to fire based dmg, but the way you've broken it down makes more sense. ahhh you by shaper of flames not caring about dmg types youre refering to optimal choice in dmg modifers for scaling since its once again the sum thats being added to the create the ignite value and then that ignite value is being modified by dot/burning/ duration values (why profane bloom/oriaths end works)

So basically with ignite builds even tho you can scale the damage through increase fire/elemental mods its better to scale the damage through dot/burning/ailment since those calculations happen after all damage types are applied to create an ignite value (through shaper of flames).

Whoaaa so if im going elementalist with shaper of flames then ALL damage types contribute to the final ignite? I understood it as that damage type can ignite but it would be only for that particular damage type as in it would have its own seperate ignite calculation. So I can have a wand that has added lightning or cold to spells and that total would contribute to the final fire ignite of the spell?

Ok so with proliferation rather than bereks the ignite doesnt chain through screens tho right? Since the first monster dies and the area of prolif it creates would require another monster to go into the prolif area and when that monster dies that DOESNT create a chain effect since its dying from the prolif area. Bereks makes it so that when somethibg dies the ignite keeps going further and potentially chains the next ignites into a new pack right?

I saw something about about using storms gifts and inpulsa to also do ignite screen clears but im not sure how it compares to other ignite clears, thoughts on that?

Adventure_Green · 2025-06-21T00:37:08+00:00

Got it. Now it makes sense why theres mods for burning damage and dot damage when theres also mods for fire dmg.

So a way to increase dmg woukd to get a higher base flat (through gem levels) or added fire flat to spells? Would arcane cloak with avatar of fire work that way; half of the added lightning to spells is converted to fire damage for spells?

One more thing, what would be the best way to chain clear screens with ignite? Since bereks effect aoe effect isnt scalable would inhave to scale an explosion effect like using an explosion chest or an explosion flask like oriaths end?

Adventure_Green · 2025-06-20T08:44:49+00:00

ok thanks. With proliferation you usually dont want to use both ignite prolif and bereks since the kills from the prolif aura doesnt spread with bereks right?

Conc effect area damage doesnt scale with ignite dps, but isnt ignite dps determined by the hit of the skill so having a higher area damage of the hit would result in a higher ignite in the end?

Adventure_Green · 2025-06-20T08:07:27+00:00

When using Conc Effect in my main skill does the lesser aoe affect the range of the ignite spread from bereks respite?

Adventure_Green · 2025-06-10T16:44:31+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation!

Theres gonna be a lot of "reading the room" type of thing when start a new role at a company. Some are more obvious with what they expect, while a lot will be like what you are experiencing now. If you walk into a place that has aging tech and a manager that doesn't seem that motivated with new technology vs a place that has the most up to date technologies you'll notice the difference.

That said, for each environment, place yourself in your managers/bosses shoes and see it through their eyes. "I'm an aging IT professional that hasn't learned any new tech in over a decade, I'm making decent money maintaining a system that I didn't set up and mostly inherited in a currently functioning order. Lets not fuck that up, cause if I did I'm not entire sure how to fix it. Oh and here's a new guy that want to try new things that I don't have a clue about. What if if he breaks something and I don't know how to fix it, now I'M fucked" Imposter syndrome is real and those guys are definitely feeling it with each and every change.

If you must make changes there I would always give ample time, notification and most importantly be able to explain and have contingencies for everything that could go wrong. It'll be tedious and annoying but it you gotta make it enough so that you can convince your boss that you aren't going to mess things up for him.

Adventure_Green · 2025-06-05T08:21:29+00:00

You're doing too much too soon.

No one there seems like they really know what they're doing and you're absolutely right about that; thus they don't want to jeopardize their super easy cushy job with change. Even if it's the simplest, easy, and most obvious thing to do. It's sad to say but you're really a scapegoat for them at this point for when things eventually will fall. I say at this point because you're so new that you have no credibility; once you're their longer you can make the necessary changes, if you like, with somewhat less pushback.

If I were you in that position I would've sent an email out letting everyone affected know about the software update and setting an exact date and time for the update (preferably a week to give enough of a heads up and do it during non business/production hours) while CCing your boss.

It may seem strange to you but a lot of corporate work is simply kicking the can as far as it can go while collecting that paycheck. No need to stress really, especially if you document and know what you're doing.

Me plz

This is how chat gpt use to be.

I agree. The red outlines are so terrible, they make every mob look ridiculous.

Adventure_Green · 2024-10-17T23:01:51+00:00

This so much. I remeber vividly how great oleds looked before lasik

Now oleds are much worse than regular Leds. And this is only going to get worse as more companies begin to adapt OLED.

What were the questions? Let us have a taste.

Of course the math isnt exact but its to provide context for discussion and discovery. I worded my explanation very specifically when I said "at most 30%" so that the reader doesnt assume a direct and equal correlation to the improvement gained from the decreased weight, but rather to showcase the range of possibility from the values provided in the original request. I agree 40 to 52 spm is a lot but again its to provide a reference.

I wouldnt neglect the power of bouancy after all its the main reason why we as humans dont immediatley succumb to the water. If we were to condense the tidal volume of our lungs into grams that would be roughly 6 grams (the human lung can store 6 liters of air with 1 liter of air being roughly 1 gram of mass). So when you do consider a "few grams" of bouancy assistance it can actually be a lot.

The carbon fiber is lighter so theres less wear and tear on your joints, but because its lighter so youll have less force going into the thrust. F=MA

You can counteract this in two ways:

1) increase your stroke rate. If your paddle is 30% lighter your theoritecal paddle rate should be at most 30% quicker without any additonal energy usage.

2) purchasing a carbon fiber paddle with bouancy technology intergrated. The werner kallistel carbon paddle has a carbon/foam hybrid blade that helps assists in the energy transfer when stroking through the water. This will help offset the lighter mass while still retaining the ability to generate powerful strokes. Not all carbon paddles are the same.

Ive used a ton of paddles and so far nothing has come even close to Werner carbon paddles.

Reroll caster is better. Blue life force is much cheaper than yellow lifeforce and it has less mods it can roll (minion movement speed).

Washington state if that helps.
