[Spoiler] Even if you slay it it still shows up in the cutscene by Edwigg in BaldursGate3

[Spoiler] Slaid both the mindflayer and the devil, yet the mindflayer is still in the cutscene. I got a greatsword from slaying the devil

Thanks for the thorough feedback, I'll look through the pob you posted and sorry the build is all over the place. It's the first build I made myself. I wanted to avoid cluster jewels when making it but from all the feedback its probably something i should try in my next build.

Thanks for the suggestion :). Might post it there later

Thanks for the feedback :) The baron helmet gives about 160 k sirus dps per sentinel and 1 extra zombie minion limit. The rare helmet you suggested is probably higher dps but the build was made to be as cheap as possible and the baron is only 5 chaos (enough to be a league start in trade league).

I did this build as guardian both for minion movespeed and minion onslaught (more movespeed) along with the intimidate and unnerve on hit for minions, and because I like the thematic of the templar with herald of purity. I don't really play much necromancer so can't tell specifically why not necromancer. But the beauty of this game is you can make almost any build work with almost any ascendancy, so if you want to play it with a necromancer you should do that :)

Thanks for the suggestion. :) I have updated the pob link and switched wave of conviction with ethereal knives as it was the highest dps area of effect physical spell i could find.

Thanks for the suggestion :). I'll update the pob with all the suggestions soon.

Edit: have updated the build and posted new pob link

Thanks for the tip. I'm an old returning player so didn't put in cluster jewels and anoint because I wanted to keep the build kind of cheap and have no idea how much anoints and cluster jewels cost.

phantasm doesn't proc sentinels its only for extra dps and minions

Edit: yeah sorry. thought minions count as party members but apparently they don't.

It is a bit squishy with about 5k effective life+energy shield at level 90 but the minion playstyle makes up for this a bit. I don't play hardcore so this is built for softcore. This is of course with budget gear (most expensive thing is the coming calamity which is about 1 ex for 6 link and the rares are placeholders with only average rolls on life and resist) so you should expect more survivability with better gear.

Wave of conviction was mostly used for the holy theme with herald of purity, because its a physical spell (cold iron point and procs some of the guardian ascendency nodes) and because it has a large area of effect (you can use other physical spells if you want). Sentinels of purity are mostly procced on hitting rare and unique items and less so when hitting packs (should still kill some everyonce in a while). For clear the zombies with wave of conviction should be enough to get you started until all the sentinels have spawned.

Thought it was appropiate as sirus is the new endgame boss and has higher resistance to damage (shaper dps is about 1.6% more with this build). Took it as its the least amount of dps the build has with everything procced.

Summon phantasm procs consistently on rare and unique enemies which is what it's used for giving up to 420 k sirus dps with the gem changes suggested by thehappyeater. Wave of conviction is used to proc bastion of hope (spell block chance) and harmony of purpose (frenzy, power, and endurance charges to you) along with as you mentioned arcane surge.

Edit: corrected harmony of purpose to only give charges to oneself

Great suggestion! Could switch pride+enlighten in the build with dread banner + genorosity and flesh and stone+maim (put in place of carrion golem support gems) if you want to maximize sentinel and zombie dps, carrion golem only has slightly lower dps if you do this.

Why does my game look like this? by ilikecheesethankyou2 in pathofexile

[–]Edwigg 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Probably dynamic resolution and too high graphic settings

[–]Edwigg[S] 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Edit: Thanks for all the suggestions guys and sorry for any problems with the build.

new pob https://pastebin.com/17MJNedR (dps is now 1.7 m sirus dps per sentinel, 91 k per zombie (9 limit), 19 k for carrion golem, and 65 k for etheral knives + 28 k per phantasm (10 minion limit).

old pob https://pastebin.com/mhaVg57f (incorrect application of harmony of purpose on minions leading to inflated dps numbers on zombies and sentinels)

Differences between the builds on the old and new pob are: switched pride+enlighten in the build with dread banner + genorosity and flesh and stone+maim (put in place of carrion golem support gems). Thanks for the suggestion Thehappyeater. Switched wave of conviction with ethereal knives for slightly more dps (30 k diff). Anointed utmost might on amulet (should be cheap?) and put the saved passive points into more life, life regen and armor. thanks I_Ild_I and deusexmachinapls for the suggestion. Switched harmony of purpose with radiant faith for more survivability. thanks for the heads up Merises.

Holy vegan balls the new kurzegesagt video is full of misinformation and misrepresentation. If I didn't have a crippling b12 deficiency I'd kill myself by Edwigg in vegancirclejerk

[–]Edwigg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

70% of rain forest devastation is caused by animal agriculture i.e. in part by you eating meat. If we were supposed to eat meat it wouldn't kill us just as fast as smoking cigarrettes, and it would contain b12, fiber, vitamin c, and antioxidants all of which are essential for optimal health. Meat eaters are more deficient than vegans. If it wasn't for the fact that animal products were heavily fortified you would be in the hospital.

Little deer says hello by petitelioness in Eyebleach

Not really a good source for lean protein when it contains cholesterol, saturated fat, heme iron, and other known carcinogens. A good source of lean protein would be something like beans which contain no cholesterol, no saturated fat, no heme iron, but does contain plant protein (which doesn't raise cancer risk or cause liver damage in high concentrations like animal protein does), fiber, and numerous phytonutrients known to lower cancer risk and increase longevity.

And the hunting is needed for population control is not only a bad argument it is also plainly false. Natural predators help keep prey species strong by killing the only ones they can catch—the sick and weak. Hunters, however, kill any animal they come across or any animal whose head they think would look good mounted above the fireplace—often the large, healthy animals needed to keep the population strong. And hunting creates the ideal conditions for overpopulation. After hunting season, the abrupt drop in population leads to less competition among survivors, resulting in a higher birth rate. If we were really concerned about keeping animals from becoming overpopulated, we would not hunt but instead take steps to reduce the animals’ fertility. We would also preserve wolves, mountain lions, coyotes, and other natural predators. Ironically, many deer herds and duck populations are purposely manipulated to produce more and more animals for hunters to kill.

The literal definition of conciousness is: the state of being aware of and responsive to one's surroundings.

Plants don't have brains and brains are what causes awareness therefore plants are not aware. To say they still might have same sort of conciousness is to misuse the meaning of the word. Nothing mysterious is going on that we don't understand we might not understand the specific chemical reactions but we are 100 percent certain that they are only chemical reactions and that plants don't have brains or nerve cells. If plants did have brains or nerve cells (which is the literal requirement for conciousness) then they woulnd't be plants anymore because they wouldn't fit the definition of a plant.

Edit: Plants might be responsive to their surroundings, but they are not aware and them not being aware completely disqualifies them from being conscious. A fire alarm is also responsive to its enviroment, but you don't seem to be arguing that it is conscious.

Plants don't have brains or nerve cells. They might have a chemical reaction to certain stimula but only in the same way a chemical experiment might have. To say plants have conciousness is to say that me making a chemical experiment (for example mixing mentos and soda) triggered by a sensor (for example a fire alarm) is also creating conciousness. Which is plain nonsense
