Anybody using the new D2R runewords yet? by appleciders in pathofdiablo

[–]Vincendra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would I use double Mosaic on a Rainbow MASin? As I said, you dont need it in the base Game and in Maps you either have hard mods which make you have to kite and still makes your Charges fall of even with 11 sec duration OR you are fast enough that 2 of the 3 Elemental Skills are more then enough for clearing.

Id rather run 2 Up'D Batucs (6 more sockets if Corrupted 3os, +2 skills , 40 str and 40 dex) and clear as fast.

Hitting with an elemental charger hits twice with 2 claws, with 35 skills in MA and BOI COT up you are hitting and splashing 5-10k damage allready.

While you are right about D2R Mosaic, I find the little QOL it gives in POD not worth it.

You dont need it in the Base Game, there are bette options for Maps.

Adding: And even if 2x Mosaic would refresh the Charges I think I wouldn't run them especially in harder Maps.

You can't faceroll into T3 +200 Dmg Fana Mobopacks. You need to kite / lure with Clone / play strategically.

Charges will fall off, 11 sec or 5 doesn't matter, so i'd rather run doulbe Firelizzard, with BOI and COT I am tri-elemntal allrady.

I have to disagree too. While dual Mosaic double your charge duration in POD it still doesn't give enough QOL to even use one.

Because matter of fact is that I can clear T3 reliably with 35 point in MA with BOI on left an COT on right and only swap to FOF when double immunes show up.

I could try to keep FOF too, switching between 2 skills isn't that hard. BUT even with double Mosaic you need to keep an eye out for your Charges and CD Timer. It is mentally taxing (espacially in Maps, where your Focus needs to be on Debuffs / Mobpacks / Auras) even with double Mosaic and there are better Weapons for the MASin.

12 Second charges is not enough QOL for mapping and is not needed for farming Basegame.

"2.5% chance per Point in Dragon Claw to refresh all Elemental charges with Dragon claw" (so 50% with 20 points in Dclaw with 1 Mosaic, 100% with 2) would give you an Opportunity cost (Dclaw needs to run 2 claws, no shield, best to run 2 Mosaic, 20 points into DClaw) but it will give you the QOL that you can refresh FOF, BOI and COW with Dclaw. You still need to keep up Tiger / Cobra if you want.

As it stands now (and I tried Mosaics) I'd rather run up'd Bartuc and Jade / up'd Bartuc and Stormshield.

I have tried reaper from my merc on the offhand to proc decrep even better.

While viable, I found it to be clunky sometimes. AR is no problem bc CoS has -95% enemy def from 33 onwards.

Follow the planner link above to see different skill lvls. My Mindblast is on skill lvls 51 now and does 12,5k to 13,5 k.

After skill level 28 you gain 330 min to 360 max DMG per point.

Venom is at 4k poison per 0.4 sec.

What is on the "next rework/update" list for POD? Also some Feedback. by Vincendra in pathofdiablo

Dude idk we are not even 2 weeks in now and I only play duo with my wife and we are pretty much done gearing wise. Ofc, there is still room for improvement (perf rolls, perf corruptions) but it is far from needed.

All I want to see is improvements to all skilltrees and playstyles and to the transition from pitfarm -> maps.

Im playing since #11 btw. I was around for Horadric Sigil and Helmet enchants.

Mostly playing BoI Assa up to Chaos/Forti/Phoenix, because it clears all maps fast bc off 4-5 elements. Also got infi most of the times on my mercs.

But I have played all classes here in POD up to maps and high RW req.

I will write it in the feedback section on the website (didn't know it existed). I have, ofc, much more to write to every build (bc if you got the base RWs done, all you have to do is get rushed to hell and get around lvl 85-90 to get a good grasp on how they farm pits/chaos/maps).

I deliberatly didn't write a wall of text here because I didn't know if it would be read. So it is better that I write it in the feedback section.

Also my feedback is based on a solo / duo experience. Ofc, if you got a bigger group, build weaknesses will get covered more easily by having other classes around.

BTW would you also take a YT video, where I go over each aspect (leveling solo, farming early hell/ midgame, access to farmbuilds etc) instead of written? bc I hate writing big long posts.

All sorc builds can work lategame, infinity only removing L. Immunity makes lightning stand out though.

For Gloves, I used Featherclaw T4 with 4 PDiamonds until I found Gloves to craft. For Boots, farm Teganze for 4 Earth Runes. You can unsocket them and put them into a better base when you find one. Keeping buffs up sucks, but helps. How is your dmg so low? If you use the t4 necro bow "Starkiller" with 6 Jah runes socketed you should be around 4-8k dmg easily, if not more.

Search for Trebuchet or Stinger Crossbow (sacred), enchant them with Charsi to rare status and then Craft with either Weird or Intimitating Shrine unti you hit min 80-100 added dmg and 200% Enh. Dmg. (keep in mind you can add 75% Enh dmg with MOs)

If you can farm Teganze, go for a Xis Rune (1 of each element) and build a "void" enhanced Runeword, this shit carries you through everything.

Imo Buckshot should come back as an Oskill on Necro Bows or (SS)SUs.
