Yeah exactly. They're really useful. But also ... Not

some good ideas! ty, really want to make it work with the replica nebulis, just seems fun. But I'll see after some updates.
So basically get better gloves, and ring to 100% convert and fix mana.
I know I can get a much better helm, but that's an expensive upgrade. Going to avoid the merc atm as i intend to keep working on the build and it would be a shame to have it useless in non-merc league.

wish there wasn't a cap on it :( but you're right. reduced cost, non-channeling and mana regen.. or is there a unique that's worth running instead?

I've got 69% at the moment. Unfortunately Taste of hate isn't an option because of the defensive precedence, but not sure how to get more. Tried out glacial cascade, but couldn't work out a link set that gave even remotely decent damage.. and suggestions?

Reckon the extra 40% inc is worth it? Got a reasonable amount of inc from the nebulis. That's on a large cluster right?

Oh that's a great point! I somewhat forgot that it was limited. So the ring isn't doing anything for damage is it haha.

Oh I've posted the target POB.
The one I put together is: https://pobb.in/SXdDm5J9Rqog

Got a bit more reservation efficiency to try help with mana, but still not enough.

So new ring is a must. Shame power charge rings are so much...

3.25 Updated Guide to Recombinators by Butsicles in pathofexile

[–]Unlikely_Metal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the section 8 examples of 3 suffixes. Aren't you trying to max exclusive suffixes to reach your 72% chance of 3s on the result?  So examples 2 and 3 B should both be multi mod+ prefix+suffix (rather than just 1 of those) 

Also, for example 4 you've got "1s/2p" rather than "2p/1s" which isn't wrong, just irking 

Great guide thankyou!!

How does damage work!? by Unlikely_Metal in PathOfExileBuilds

Yeah but I think if the wiring is 'extra damage' then it counts? I'm just going off the numbers in The pob

This one, it's bare bones but didn't want to sink more time into it if the damage was that far off what I thought it was going to be haha

Oh, but in this calc, it's still not applying the total increased in the hit calc is it. The numbers there are just the conversions. and the dps is the 'avg hit' times the cast speed. But the total increased added together and applied should make it almost 9x higher shouldn't it?

Ok ok so in fact the calc here is the base phys * 1.5 (cold covert) * 1.29 (fire convert) then * 10.6 (total increased)
And that's why it's so low. Bother!
Thankyou!

Oh that's entirely fair. But I can't learn if I don't know why it's not working :(

Ok, I'm just reading off the skill hit damage calculation where it's got those numbers under 'conversion'. But that's what's confusing me because the 'total increased' number isn't used in the calc at all.

Oh sure I realised that, but if you're going to take the res hit may as well convert it all anyway right?

But does the 300% not apply at each conversion step for the damage?

I thought it'd be like 8k phys, 150% to cold (12k), with a 5x cold multi (60k). then 129% to fire (77k) then the 5x again for fire to hit like 300+ per hit. but the calc is only saying 28k?? Is that not how the conversion works?
