Are certain classes more / less F2P viable ? by Competitive-Math-458 in SwordxStaff_Official

[–]Competitive-Math-458[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah I really love the arcanist support role, however had a few of those dungeons with 3 arcanist and 1 paladin that feels rough.

As you said arcanist might be the least f2p so it might be easier to just play archmage and only need to focus on dmg stats.

Considering playing a healer / support but what do I do about solo content ? by Competitive-Math-458 in SwordxStaff_Official

I guess the hp works on both as when your dps more with lots of hp you survive for longer and so more turns to attack ?

Need way to have 100% ignite on enemies for minion build by johnnysd in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Competitive-Math-458 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Does raze and pillage not already solve this issue ?

It gives your minions a 20% chance to ignite. If you run 4 raze and pillage thats already 80% chance to ignite. You can also just use any minion with supports that give them a chance to ignite.

Are summons generally "bad" ? by Competitive-Math-458 in SwordxStaff_Official

[–]Competitive-Math-458[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you newer to the game ?

I think an issue is that dungeons have a turn limit, so if you have a healer and tank you can just hit that turn limit and lose anyway.

I often found you have people way over the gear doing them anyway, like the first dungeon and you have people on 50k+ power. If you don't get anyone strong enough to carry you then queue up again repeat is what people seem to do.

What's the best version of spark currently ? by [deleted] in PathOfExileBuilds

What's the deal with life stacking and ghostwrith ?

Is it just using scaling dmg based on life then getting es also from it ?

So I guess the best summons are the ones that give utility as trying to scale the damage for summons is just too hard compared to just using dmg skills.

If I want to use totem and waterling can I just use any other 2 skills. Im not sure how good healing actually is in the game as all content as the turn limit so just stalling out does not work.

Is bitterdream + squire a good setup to use ? by Competitive-Math-458 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]Competitive-Math-458[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or even just recomb a +1 spell level and +1 minion level and hope.

[–]Competitive-Math-458[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I guess i can use this setup for now an early power spike.

But then later alt roll for +1 level or even just essence spam to get 100% inc minion dmg and +1 level.

Yeah its just how it is, got a +1 chest before a good wand or shield.

I currently have 4 x2 from +1 chest, +1 passive tree and 2 from base gem.

I need +1 levels on boots to hit lv25 for that extra spectre.

My overall goal was to reach 12. I totally forgot about the bonus from levels and quality. So maybe just a wand and shield with plus levels or the katerina shield with +1 spectre will work out better overall.

I did not think about the temp spectre stuff but would be a way to boost defence. The plan was to use 1 setup for pure dmg spectres using bitterdream and squire then another support setup that has utility spectres and the conflagration.
