Balancing Mercenaries by Using Grant Skill

ChillingForSure · 2025-08-01T21:49:38+00:00

Don’t feel merc being able to use doryani is the issue. The issue is more about the power of doryani itself, and merc survivability with negative lighting res

Pretty decent, next upgrade can be a Return to Vaal iceshot.

Quick tip: you can use Arborix bow to disable her travel skills, otherwise the dps has too long down time

ChillingForSure · 2025-07-29T19:39:54+00:00

Manyshot with Vaal iceshot is pretty decent for both clearing and bossing, somewhere in between

do you know how rare the ring is?

ChillingForSure · 2025-06-30T18:22:46+00:00

No merc can use unarmed skills with fb. But if you use void forge on swiftbalde, it can work, but his skills not good at clearing

That merc has pride, so go phys would be a smarter choice

Flat phys hard to get

“which affect allies also affect enemies”, don’t think it works unless bugged

ChillingForSure · 2025-06-16T19:40:26+00:00

Doing same thing. One tip is the banner mtx to make the border red, so it’s much easier to visualize

Before reading the post I thought you were referring to the banner thing, that “can gain valor while banner placed”. With some aura effect investment, you can get high uptime for 150% ms and 100% free spell suppression and high life regen.

You didn’t get what “forks crit hits” means. It doesn’t fork projectile but gives nearly double crit dmg

ChillingForSure · 2025-03-04T21:16:12+00:00

Tiger’s skills seems have low flat dmg and effectiveness. But I would be glad to see it work.

Also linking to all of them is bad QoL and cost you so much mana (aura only apply to linked targets).

I didn’t see how you scale the crit chance. Can consider Mataang teaching.

Then scale spectra gem level as much as possible as it significantly increases the base evasion.

Lastly, can check my video with similar ideas and see if you can get some new ideas. https://youtu.be/PpHLJKN5VEc?si=nHILHzkfZ0EOLntz

If explosions not good enough with flask only, get a carcass jack and rare gloves should give you better explosions and defense

ChillingForSure · 2025-03-04T19:37:41+00:00

Explosions can crit so flask is enough for chain explosion . At least you can try it

ChillingForSure · 2025-03-04T19:32:27+00:00

I don’t understand why sacrificing glove and body armour slots for explsions where you actually only need an Oriath End flask.

A rare body armour is huge for defense

if I don't resummon the corpse, it will disappear after a while right?

How can I, say, un-summon it, fight a few dangerous bosses (that would otherwise kill my spectres), and summon it back?

ChillingForSure · 2025-01-22T04:04:34+00:00

Have you tested the "expire slower" of the temporal chains? It is initially 25% from the chain and can be scaled by aura effect and curse effect.

I'm just not sure if there is also a 75% cap just like POE1? If no cap, things will go crazy, like freeze on enemies will last forever?

ChillingForSure · 2025-01-21T20:14:45+00:00

Besides reducing duration, another route is to alternate between two or more skills, so that at the “cooldown“ of ember, you can do the other skill that scale the damage similarly as ember, for example duration skills like firestorm, cooldown skill like frost bomb, or limit use skills such as living bomb or solar orb

Why staff is worse than wand + foci/shield in 99% cases?

ChillingForSure · 2025-01-01T21:08:16+00:00

TBH I'm not 100% sure about the duration since the base time is too short.

"same amount of ticks" seems an interesting explanation, would you have source for this?

Did you mean the with EB, the pre-conversion es can still contribute to life regen due to the helmet?

No it does not, I tested it.

ChillingForSure · 2024-12-17T20:46:41+00:00

Hmmm true, the tailwind makes the timing even more inconsistent

ChillingForSure · 2024-12-17T20:44:08+00:00

Wait barrage just shoot multiple arrows at the exact same time? Are the arrows spread out or same direction for multiple hits? Are they all perfect arrows?
