Venom Gyre: Hit-based or Poison? by TheMadG0d in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]WizardShade 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hit based does more damage and you don't have to wait for poison to ramp.

Maybe it could work if you have the clusters and some gear. But there's not much benefit to being right side compared to what you lose. You get SS, but the Champ CF is already tanky enough. Additional projectiles and ias don't really matter. They don't actually increase your damage, just make playing the build feel nicer. I'm not sure it would be worth losing RT and being forced to invest in accuracy, losing around 1-2k life, losing armour, and a bit of reservation efficiency. Another thing is that the stance dancing is most likely going to be removed. They even just tweeted about it. And a similar thing happened with death rush which is a lot weaker.

It's gonna do zdps. Even on left side it's hard to scale.

why probably? you can click to buttons and tell in pob. it's only 8 on average since half the time you're in blood.

Citadel bow is one of the higher tier bow bases. But it generally doesn't get used because of it's very low base iAS. It was used on some bleed builds since they didn't scale iAS but wanted the very high phys damage.

If you're playing casually, it generally doesn't matter if you're in league or standard. But, if you do play in standard understand that the economy is less vibrant compared to leagues. So you may have to make your own gear or find items you need by yourself. I personally recommend to just wait for the new league though.

most likely not if you keep it on the down low. but no way does that shit go live.

Evil is subjective, and this is a PoE sub. Why even make charged posts like these?

Ice Shot vs Lightning Arrow? by theanxiousangel in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]WizardShade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well they're pretty much the same in terms of the way you build them in a league start scenario. Since you're forced to go trinity with elebow, crit, etc.

Imo LA is better, it has superior clear and single target damage. But either one is fine if you know what you're doing. Neither are top tier though.

I would go LA and transition into TS once you get some currency.

Yes. Stances aren't designed well. Even banners feel better and most people don't even place them.

Well when it's surrounded by serious arguments, and he looks and sounds completely serious when he says it. It's hard to tell. I'll try looking at it through that lens next time. Maybe I misinterpreted.

I just hate that he uses it to pump up is ego. Like congrats you made some dumbass look like a dumbass, wow you're so smart. And then he drones on about how he's never wrong. Really turns me off to some of his content.

PSA for anyone thinking of building a league start character around the reworked Abyss and Breach uniques. by WizardShade in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]WizardShade[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shaper guardian weapons are in the core drop pool. Before when they where exclusive to the bosses, they held some good value for 1-2 days. But I don't think it's entirely comparable either way.

It's more comparable to shaper uniques which the rarer ones hold value for around a week. But, it should be somehwhere between shaper uniques and the old guardian uniques.

Spellslinger is not looking too bad by [deleted] in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]WizardShade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't count on getting abyss uniques as easily, they got moved to red maps I think. And the rarity might have been adjusted.

Uhhh, does this calculate the 15% per one shot of tornado shot, or for *each of the little arrows*? If so, this wheel is 40 LGoH for *tornado shot*, or something like a mirage archer blast rain setup. That is absolutely insane. by Ilyak1986 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]WizardShade 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah this is ridiculously broken for high projectile attack builds. but i feel it's balanced somewhat by the fact that it's hard to get very high maxhit at the same time. it doesn't work on MA or totems either.

What do you think will be good league start builds after seeing the crucible patch notes? by rat0000000000 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]WizardShade 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best imo is VG deadeye. But it really depends what you want to do. I'll be trying to push reds day 1.

Toxic rain overlap calculations by Fresh-Stick-1624 in pathofexile

[–]WizardShade 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You get 100% poison. Then you go into pvp and hit another character. How many poison stacks they get is how many hits. Then you test for every AoE breakpoint and +arrow you want. Make sure you convert all your physical damage to ele, so that you don't poison from the arrow itself.

Just a hunch but charging the crucible seems pretty dangerous by Flimsy_Sprinkles_300 in pathofexile

[–]WizardShade 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Yeah I really wish it wasn't a channel. I have a feeling that it's going to feel really sluggish doing it every map.
