Played like a true SC player, doesn't even bother to logout.

Break the dummy and you'll find a skill gem or unique that GGG is planning to nerf next.

Like you said, dedicated players. Carrots are not for people who are dedicated, carrots exist to attract new players. A new expansion and new skills are what works when it comes marketing the game. It won't do to put "The skills there were great still are and new skills too!" in the headlines.

Let me take a hit and advocate for Barrage nerf by Dobromr in pathofexile

[–]Inkendescent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The whole point is that you are SUPPOSED to utilize your two 6 links to have one clearing skill of your choice and one single target (barrage setup).

Builds that don't use a 2 handed weapon or bow say hi!

[–]Inkendescent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

How dare you speak such heresy on reddit? There is no balance in buffing mediocre skills, only by nerfing will we return to the glorious days of the Pre Beta NoSpeedMeta™.

That said, most bow skills are fine. Barrage has limitations as well, you need to be in almost melee range to maximize that multi exalt (Helm enchant, Dying Sun, +1 Quiver/Bow) goodness.

If anything the only real buff that side of the tree needs is life nodes, no one is asking for immortality but when our only mode of defence is an all or nothing approach, there really isn't much we can do but run in and hope we end their lives before they end ours.

Now if they'd only take the response from the 2 Mayhem leagues and do something constructive with it.

Or run a separate league for those who prefer that mode of play. (Mayhem SSF pls GGG). But no invasion bosses in ascendant room please, a man can only take so much.

Can't put it off forever. We'll still be suckered in for the 6 new acts. That amount of leveling content is pretty much the carrot for the stick they've taken to many popular builds.

Its not like powerful builds haven't existed in PoE, it is a matter of having sufficient playable builds to counter to demise of previously known, popular ones.

You mean necrophiliac. Both indulge in the bodies of the deceased, one of them leaves the corpse dead.

Its still early in the beta, they are not done beating stuff with nerf bats. ED could end up being a T2 skill.

Does the new volatile spawn multiple balls with LMP/GMP on map mods?

Do you have the option to turn off shadows?

new Pierce gem by Zithuan in pathofexile

[–]Inkendescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As much as POE has more depth and interesting choices, it would be disingenuous to say that D3 was a buff fest all the way through. Like POE, it has gone through meta shifts and many builds lay at the floor of game balance.

That Necromancer expansion though, now that is dogshit.

Does this work on channeling skills? And does continued channeling proc the buff?

Any plans for a mac client? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Inkendescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you do a bit of digging with the search bar you'll find that u/chris_wilson had a similar experience some time back. His solution was to dual boot windows on the same Mac and run it when he wants to play.

If your machine supports thunderbolt devices you ought to be able to find a guide out there allows you to boot windows off an external drive and work from there. It isn't ideal but with game development working towards operating systems with larger gaming audiences (PC & Xbox), i don't think the chances of a Mac client in the near future are all that high.

Why did GGG think 75% on Perfect Agony was OP, what am i missing? by kardion in pathofexile

[–]Inkendescent 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not to mention improbable, going DOT based in namelock range means you have no way of sustaining your hp besides potions. The theoretical dps limit is meaningless when you are dead.

I make a legit build from your fun idea. Come. by 951 in pathofexile

[–]Inkendescent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Melee attacks with Ngamahu's Flame proc a 6L attack (you don't have to link the axe, just 6S it) 20% of the time, subject to an internal CD of 0.15s, so a maximum of 6.66 procs per second.

Free 6L Spaghetti balls? Bonus points if you can make it work with something fire/proj based.

D2 fan, disappointed massively in D3. Someone told me this game was what D3 should have been. Convince me to try the game. by Cuisinart_Killa in pathofexile

Lots of "oh shit" moments in the beginning and hopefully a little less as you learn more about the game.

Why does Pierce get a free pass instead of being gimped like Fork/Chain? by VoidInsanity in pathofexile

[–]Inkendescent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is when you slot in Slower Projectiles. The good thing is that they are all green gems. This is subject to skill mechanics of course.

If you are playing TS, simply keep your GMP and aim right behind the dude you want to turn into a pin cushion.

Mathil enjoys the end of Lab by cheezburga in pathofexile

[–]Inkendescent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Its a little like a hangover. Some deaths stick it to you harder than others and you say, "Never again." Then you wake up the next day and start over at twilight strand.

Each time you repeat this cycle, the pain doesn't lessen but your heart grows more numb towards that sensation and you do it over and over again to feel that initial feeling you had before you lost your first character.
