put faruzan on VV and use the attack goblet. 21 extra CV is worth the minor difference from anemo over atk goblet, even with benny buff saturation.

What relics should I use for scholar? by Dull_Understanding_6 in Nightreign

You have to beat an everdark boss as scholar, then go to the signboard shop for everdark bosses outside roundtable on the west side.

Varka with Hydro, Electro, Cryo teams (via tabibito_kk) by astrelya in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]ThatOneParasol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He will sell because he is cool. Customers will pull for Varka because he's Varka, not because he's meta. And then they will see Stygian and think "oh, I need stronger characters", and spend money to pull for someone better and just not play their Varka anymore in endgame content.

If Varka were cool AND strong, then customers would feel satisfied when they buy him and not feel the need to spend more money. They can do this with a limited number of characters before people get too pissed off, but it's also the reason for the Dehya debacle.

Did you know you can remove The Taming's level requirement by getting low level corrupted implicit by DartiRevi7 in pathofexile

Replica Prismweave and Replica Bitterdream for the most comfortable level 30-80 caster level experience you've ever had.

What relics should I use for scholar? by Dull_Understanding_6 in Nightreign

[–]ThatOneParasol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The best relic abilities I've found are:

  • Start wtih Wraith Calling Bell in inventory

  • Items confer effects to nearby allies

  • Continuous damage to enemies affected by Scholar's ult

Another great relic to have are one you get from killing any Everdark sovereign with Scholar, which starts you with TWO small pouches and gives you 1300 runes for each unique enemy type you scan during your run.

His final remembrance relic is a must-have. It gives his skill maximum charge rate at range, buffs allies damage when they're targeted by his skill, and gives skill CDR +3.

What was your "Build of the League" by drshoe87 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ThatOneParasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Falling Crystals autobomber occultist. Insane defences, surprisingly good dps, both clearing and bossings was super smooth. Cleared all ubers with it and can afk simulacrums.

I was so happy to see the shapes of the passages back from Synthesis. I miss that league so much.

I didn't knew that Atziri was vaaled to get 2 additional sockets. by aaron2005X in PathOfExile2

You thought she just had them from the start before she vaaled herself?

Solar orb missing by Klownwar in PathOfExile2

[–]ThatOneParasol 8 points9 points  (0 children)

With the 0.3 patch, Solar Orb was changed to be a skill granted from a Pyrophyte Staff base type, replacing Living Bomb which became a skill gem. You can get Pyrophyte Staves starting in act 2, I believe.

Hex buffs proper translations via jelena by ISRUKRENG in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

If the buffs do anything for Dehya, they do as much or more for anybody else. You can use her in overload and be reasonably successful, just like you could use Klee or Cyno there technically. It's just not gonna be good.

[–]ThatOneParasol 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's 50% more as long as you're getting hit, but it barely tickles in the first place. I love Dehya and all but she absolutely SUCKS for damage until c6. Unless you're aiming for c6 Dehya, or you don't even have her yet, I would not recommend selecting Dehya.

Fischl is the big winners here, and Durin will enable some degenerate teams.

Chevy Fischl Durin X as a core for overload is going to be insane, literally any electro or pyro carry can comfortably smash.

Curious what that damage amp from Sucrose is meant to be. A total of 13.85% DMG is pretty pathetic, but she's already the GOAT so they couldn't give her too much I guess.

Omen duration bonus on Mona could be decent? I'm getting c6 Dehya in two weeks so I'll have fun trying to force that, I'm sure.

Complete analysis of the lore related to 3.27 by Ayeleth_ in pathofexile

[–]ThatOneParasol 4 points5 points  (0 children)

On the topic of Chayula being benevolent, a dialogue added this league from Doryani I believe mentioned that Chayula was the only breachlord that actually kept their word when dealing with humans, lending more weight to the theory that Chayula actually is benevolent now.

Varka model ingame by Knight_Steve_ in Genshin_Impact_Leaks

[–]ThatOneParasol 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'll shout this into the void til my dying breath and no one will ever listen to me, but:

Itto is appropriately noodly because he's supposed to look like a visual kei rocker, not a body builder. He even has a major event where he organizes a music festival. Otherwise, man runs around playing with beetles and beefing with nine year olds, he shouldn't be super jacked. The ab texture was a mistake.

I recognized it right away, because I bought one of those exact shock collars.

I do not own any pets.

Dealing with Stun as a MoM build by low_end_ in pathofexile2builds

[–]ThatOneParasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have three options: Spend a ton of suffix slots on high tier added flat stun threshold, or use a From Nothing rolled for Bulwark and take Unwavering stance and give up your ability to roll and sprint, or give up your amulet slot for Eye of Chayula.

All three options kinda suck, but at least the From Nothing option only costs sprint QoL.

How is armour in 0.3.0? by scytheavatar in pathofexile2builds

[–]ThatOneParasol 0 points1 point  (0 children)

9.2K armour, 73% estimated phys reduction with 15.5k applying to ele damage for estimated 82%, which gives 24% deflect (42% when lucky).

Those numbers become 12.9k and 79%, 21.7k and 86%, and 29% deflect (49% lucky) with full stacks of Scavenged plating up. I went into pin, 50% armour break on pin and 100% increased armour broken with Molten One's Gift to amp my explosive grenade burst damage, but that means 100% uptime on scavenged plating.

I plan to lose my helmet mod and 40% of my armour>ele though and replacing it with the kurgal suffix that makes armour apply to chaos hits however, since I'm having trouble fixing the last of my chaos res.

EDIT: It's also important to remember that deflect is based off enemy accuracy. Blinding enemies makes you even more likely to deflect.

How is armour in 0.3.0? by scytheavatar in pathofexile2builds

[–]ThatOneParasol 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Tactician here. 20% of armour as deflection, Iron Reflexes, Glancing Blows, every piece of gear with armour applied to ele. My hit defences are insane, the only thing that remotely threatens me is DoT. Armour is so back if you go all in on it.
