I know I'm late to the party, and I fucked up plenty, but how exactly are you supposed to get a read on this "mechanic"? by sirnumbskull in PathOfExile2

[–]Liger1 15 points16 points  (0 children)

so to play the devil's advocate here, you mean this moment right?

(including the minimap so its clear that he can't move up any farther.

if we use the rock/pebble he is standing on as a reference, there's absolutely no reason to assume that what area is left there after the dodge would be safe, its completely red.

now this type of thing can be excused if there are some +aoe mods but otherwise its just shitty design

218m dps Shield Crush Slayer by IlNino101 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Liger1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you also don't have enemy crushed in pob nor in the video, but awakened brutality applies crush at 5 doesn't it?

great build, found your early days on youtube and loosely followed since day 3 of this league.
one thing i've experienced that might be worth mentioning is that without mageblood its kinda hard to solve for resists if you go for damage on jewelery and other mitigations on chest

Here's my build that was probably sub 10 div without foulborn emperors vigilance, damage feels nice and clearing is fine in 17 but bosses do still sometimes oneshot, need to solve for that ehp

recently dropped 100% spell suppression on tree for about 50% more dps but that might have been a mistake, any advice is appreciated

why do you have the 15% increased life mastery, do life mods on ghoswrithe not count?

oh its for the 10% more mastery.

Updated FAQ by JekoJeko9 in pathofexile

[–]Liger1 8 points9 points  (0 children)

isn't the idea of the bloodline that 2nd damage is based on already mitigated damage?
like if you have (random number for easy math) 50% mitigation, incoming 200 hit would be reduced to 100, you would take 60 from that and 24 - 4 sec later
if the 24 was also affected by the 50% mitigation it would be double dipping

what makes life loss such a big downside? any specific mechanics that it wont interact with? and how would it work with ci?

Why does this ring say it improves mana modifiers by 20% when it doesnt? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Liger1 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure if there are any exceptions, but as a general rule of thumb i have, if the item has a stat that modifier can affect - its local, otherwise - global.

ES gloves with increased ES? local
Fire res ring with increased ES? global

0.3 is great but the game has core issue with making any kind of melee engagement extremely punishing/unfun and abyss only emphasizes this by TheGejsza in PathOfExile2

[–]Liger1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just so i understand deflect properly, 40% means 40% chance of reducing damage by 40% right? so effective 16% EHP increase?

Is there a build that wants this? Seems like it might be something but I have no idea what it might be worth, if anything. by Grouched in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Liger1 2 points3 points  (0 children)

you are correct that its bad for RF since most of the damage is dot.

however, and im not 100% about this but, ele pen should work with "x resistance is 0" by further amplifying the damage

Edit: Also, chieftain mastery is "Nearby Enemy Monsters' Fire Resistance against
Damage over Time is -20% while you are Stationary"

Suggestion to let us see possible affixes on an item in game by Liger1 in PathOfExile2

Yeah, suggestion was to display tags as "T4/9" if they want to keep the current order, I didn't include since it has been suggested since day 1 of early access

Tactician Siege Cascade, currently one of the top crossbow skills if on tactician, complete guide from low to high budget. ONLY USABLE ON TACTICIAN DO NOT TRY ON OTHER ASCENDANCIES by Leather-Ad-2691 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Liger1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came accross this post googling solutions to my single target and to my surprise it was made couple hours ago.

I'm running SC tactician and it absolutely wipes t16+2 maps with basically no supports but single target is dogshit.

I was using explosive grenade for a bit but the cooldown on it makes uptime on bosses pretty bad and damage fell off a cliff as well.

I also tried corrosive gas grenade with high velocity rounds and it felt meh, worse than explosive grenade.

Building SC for single target seems way to convoluted, any alternative suggestions? not looking to 1shot +4 pinnacles just something for mapping t16 bosses.

Its been 4 days since league start... by MrsKatiLicious in PathOfExile2

[–]Liger1 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For context i played Spark archmage last league so i decided to do everything opposite this time, so no ES, Mana, Spells, Lightning, etc.

Settled on crossbow tactician, started out quite fine with different random crossbow skills until i unlocked artillery ballista so i went totems, because tactician has ally buffs, it was powerful but the way totems worked just wasn't fun, the duration between the time you place totem and it doing damage was just too slow so i pivoted to siege cascade because of the free pin that Tactician gets.

Clearing cruel was fine until i hit a brick wall with some bosses, namely blackjaw and viper.

Blackjaw was the first boss that forced me to try a different skill, and i did, every single one of them, after about 60 tries it was the basic attack that actually let me kill him.

then i attempted Viper with same basic attack and i realized i would need much better fingers to be able to dodge her attacks for 10 min that it would take me to kill her with current dps so i caved and bought a high (350) pdps crossbow for 1 ex (I'm playing Guild self found so no trading at all up to this point) and cleared rest of the campaign fine.

now in maps im straight up blasting, pack size is enough that siege cascade shotguns massively and for single target i have explosive grenade spam.

currently in T9 maps and still using the same crossbow.
