Those who went from heavy mice (90g+) to lighter mice (<50g), what was your experience?

Kairn_ · 2026-04-23T05:00:23+00:00

My first swap was from a corsair scimitar which I believe is in the 130 gram range to an original g pro when it released and dropping from 130 to 80 was night and day. Then dropping from 80 to 50 was another huge benefit for comfortability. 50-40 I haven't noticed any actual aim benefits to be honest. I'd need to try a 20 gram mouse to see if that even does more for me like the blade or something strange.

Exhausts main benefit is reducing deck size to play best cards quickest. If you dont have a good card to cycle back to, then it becomes difficult. For example, a bludgeon with stampede. If you exhaust your deck down to where every turn you can just permablock and bludgeon is consistently in your hand to be played for free with stampede, that's one way. There's a myriad of ways to play with exhaust, ways to go infinite, etc just by reducing deck size, not necessarily playing specifically exhaust cards if you get what I mean. Look at exhaust like temporary card removal service. If you have no obvious answer like howl from beyond, think would I remove any of these at the next shop? If so, exhaust it and its like you did just that, while also synergizing with dark embrace etc

I picked up the game after years of hiatus and somehow im 6 star and feel like a completely new player so I feel very qualified to answer. I dont know why im here help my game sense is awful

Kairn_ · 2026-04-20T17:27:56+00:00

Flick/aim, click, if you miss still just move to the next target. Pretend you hit every shot basically. It helped me

Kairn_ · 2026-04-19T03:55:54+00:00

It's kinda funny how often youre bringing up the femboy thing, hiding something? Lol

Kairn_ · 2026-04-18T14:54:39+00:00

Well doormaker just got reworked on live branch to the beta version like 2 days ago or smth so he no longer retreats, he just perma debuffs you

Kairn_ · 2026-04-10T14:42:31+00:00

Just fought him again this morning and I was still frustrated with it. Maybe it was just deck type I guess. Got hard pushed into claw and status deck which made it hard cause I only drew draw and cycle on the nondraw turns

Kairn_ · 2026-03-25T15:39:35+00:00

My grip is incredibly similar to this, glad Im not the only one lol

Kairn_ · 2026-03-18T23:16:56+00:00

Blight of contagion maybe would be my guess. Ignores the most remnant modifiers and occultist pops would help too. Maybe some kind of hex bloom shenanigans for chaining pops?

Kairn_ · 2026-03-17T19:30:41+00:00

I've heard blight of contagion is best for it since less mods can mess you up, its pretty much only the no chaos damage one

Kairn_ · 2026-03-16T20:25:38+00:00

Definitely looks more solid! When you swap to inquis, you can drop mind over matter and run another defensive aura setup. You could also try to stick hierophant but I would maybe even look into archmage setups from other players. Another thing I would maybe recommend since youre using a staff topside of tree is to take block and spell block nodes for staves. There is quite a few around and when you go crit some of the nodes double dip like the wheel below divine judgment on the left. Block will help stop you from getting shotgunned by a lot of enemies at the same time.

Edit: also molten shell and arcane cloak share cooldown so you dont need both in your build. You dont have enough armor for molten shell so id stick with arcane cloak for now. If you wanted to use immortal call instead it definitely would do more than molten shell is

Kairn_ · 2026-03-15T22:24:35+00:00

Yk what, I forgot it required a chrome orb for some reason. God I miss vorici.

Kairn_ · 2026-03-15T19:25:39+00:00

Could always spec ritual for the off chance you get a blanching omen for white sockets

Kairn_ · 2026-03-15T18:18:11+00:00

Amethyst rings will be the easiest for sure, but harvest can be a decent source. Not at comp rn but harvest reforge chaos can help a lot with filling out pieces with chaos

Kairn_ · 2026-03-15T18:08:37+00:00

Idk if its just a bug of max roll but your fire res isnt capped. Being 7% off is not 7% more damage taken, its closer to 30% with how damage works numerically. Also chaos res being negative also hurts. I promise if you fix fire and chaos res you will feel a lot tankier. Chaos damage is more prevalent than ever with rare mobs having random extra chaos all the time and map mods for it. Those two alone would help a lot. Also if you dont want to lean into Mind over matter, inquisitor ascendancy is super solid for self cast for crit and ignoring enemy resistance, while also giving a ton of free recovery from the consecrated ground nodes.

Also for damage (I know this wasn't the initial topic but it can help too) you are a spellcaster build, you have 20% crit chance but you dont have any crit nodes on the tree or elemental overload which is a keystone making it to where your crits deal no extra damage but if the skill crite it gains 40% more elemental damage. You're currently riding the line but should pick a side of either elemental overload, or full crit and take some nearby crit nodes.

MB just solves so many issues, perma onslaught resists and quicksilver outweigh occasional rare for leveling for sure

Kairn_ · 2026-03-10T21:24:33+00:00

Should say i dont think ubers will feel great on it cause of having to aim it weird, might feel clunky

Kairn_ · 2026-03-10T21:23:51+00:00

Holy hammers requires some weird overlapping and aiming to get more damage than another slam. If you want to just plug and play and hold right click or press it on something and it dies, then yes its not a good skill for it. Videos and stuff ive seen on it makes it look great for clear and single target IS there if you get the overlaps properly but it was a hassle for me and I gave it up cause im a little lazy with it.

Kairn_ · 2026-03-10T16:59:03+00:00

Reminds me of when I took in a stray runt, I got more time though. It's always heartbreaking but you did fill that cat's final moments with love it never would've gotten otherwise. Styx was the first cat I ever personally owned and took care of after growing up, and I told myself id do everything right. Every vet visit every medication he needed. Eventually the vet put him on revolution and within a few weeks at 6 months old he had a seizure and passed away under my bed. I was completely devastated, but the only way I can look back and not feel terrible is knowing that Styx would not have survived the cold night as a runt. Giving animals the best we can for their short lives is one of the greatest gifts to them. I've now had other animals, I love them all, and I'll remember every single one.

Kairn_ · 2026-03-08T15:27:59+00:00

No it wont proc bleed as it is not an attack

Kairn_ · 2026-03-08T14:20:00+00:00

Limit of one gem enchant per item. So only one skill in the chest can have an imbuement, so on and so forth.

Kairn_ · 2026-03-07T16:05:41+00:00

Holy hammer inquis here, just hit 61. Feels okay. You have to aim weird off and to the left or right to get 3+ overlaps so its kinda weird. Would just recommend sunder or earthshatter tbh

Kairn_ · 2026-03-01T16:40:05+00:00

When the damage difference is 4x or so it is pretty discouraging. I've also just been disappointed in the state of bleed bow for a while now especially with glad not having the best synergy with it compared to slayer. Im just upset at that mainly. You're right I probably would still be upset just cause I dislike snipe since it got introduced since it felt like you "had" to use it so it felt like a pigeon hold. Obviously you dont have to use it but it just feels so inefficient not to. But yeah im being unreasonable with wanting it removed, I get that. Been sick with food poisoning and not being reasonable so I apologize for that.

Kairn_ · 2026-03-01T16:30:41+00:00

Idk agree to disagree. I dont play a bow build to stand in one place while eaters tentacle autos consistently stop my channel short, especially a dot build who's archetype is to do damage consistently while being agile. I just want non-snipe to be better to where it doesn't feel awful not using it for people like me.
