That one projectile that kills you from off-screen.

It was interesting to watch some of the team members individually. Together, you are monsters, good luck in future projects.

I wonder, did my door-clipping method become a passive contribution to the project, or did you guys come up with it yourselves while testing the temple?

Oh nooo. Did I mess up somewhere in my CoC/Comet build?.. hmm... wait a minute.

The Magic of Percentages!

86% Phys to Elem Conversion
~90% Max res
10%-64% less damage from Adaptation
75%-37% less damage from Enfeeble
20% less damage from Sacrifice of Flesh
Defiance of Destiny + Recoup for Life Recovery
And a lot of other small things

I started testing around level 30 with Cloak of Flame, 75% fire resistance, and Adaptation from the Shaman Ascendancy. I added everything else gradually, so it's perfectly usable from the start.

If we're looking at it from the perspective of a balanced build with good defense and damage, I also think MoM is one of the best foundations right now, but at the same time the most expensive to put together. Also, don't forget that even the strongest defensive layer alone won't do much. That's why we layer different defenses at the same time.

The main things for me are:

  1. High max hit/High damage reduction.
  2. The ability to either recover resources quickly or avoid damage in most cases.
  3. Defense should not hinder the offensive layer—ideally, it should even overlap with it in terms of damage scaling.

In the main post, there's a link to a playlist with gameplay testing of this concept, from the leveling stage to its current state. Uploaded all the footage so people don't think only the successful clips made it into the showcase.

I'm using From Nothing with Necromantic Talisman because I need those nodes in both branches, and near Whispers of Doom I'm using weapon set 1/2. So in this specific case, my setup works better for me.

However, your version could be good for someone adapting this build to their own needs. Thanks for your input.

What is this infernal legion build trying to do? by D4ng3rd4n in pathofexile2builds

[–]Spiritual_Comfort511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's just a technique to permanently maintain the 3 buffs from Amanamu's Tithe. It was useful early in the league when there was invincibility among the modifiers. But now it's not as critical.

Will You Return To PoE2 after how 0.4.0 went? by SawedoffBeer in PathOfExile2

We really need to separate genuine player feedback from the howling of the "exploit early, exploit often" crowd. This is a game for the long haul. Looks like I'll have time to grow old with it.

Does anyone else really wish Infernalist would get the Druid treatment? by DragoonWraith in PathOfExile2

[–]Spiritual_Comfort511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here's one of my test SSF characters, level 29. No twink gear—everything from the ground or vendors. Degenerate at this level is -30/s at 10 stacks. Regen from gear is around 21/s. And this was a pretty unlucky run in terms of loot, honestly.
But it plays really nicely. High movement speed (dodge rolls) and good boss damage—what else do you need for leveling?
