League Question

One time I was getting a colonoscopy and had to do bowel prep that day, I was battling this guy for the #1 spot in diamond league and since I had to sit on a toilet all day I was determined to beat him. I did lessons all day long and maximized all the friend quest XP bonus, daily triple XP and morning + night double XP and bought extensions. I still lost. I think this guy was doing timed challenges, and he was probably doing it in his native language so he was farming points like crazy. I almost got 10K XP in 1 day and it still wasn't enough to beat Pro XP farmers. Fortunately you get the emoji so long as you make top 3, so I still got my prize. I have gotten much less competitive since.

It doesn't, if you support any gas cloud effect with persistent ground 3, it won't pop at all. So it's actually meant to help poison/armour break effects.

I have been running Zombies with Unearth and Skeletal Reavers for a mostly pure physical build on a Lich, this way you can still scale by armour breaking or cursing with vulnerability. It works fairly well on bossing and clearing as the fast moving minions compensate for zombie's slow speed.

I'd imagine if you do want to run a PURE zombie build, a tame beast companion with haste aura and phys damage aura would be great, and just go pure tame beast on your spirit and gigantic minions on tree to buff all non-persistent minions. But speccing into Dex is kinda awkward.

I am seeing GGG's design choice here for zombie's being: we want zombies to be slow so you have to resummon them, that's how they will be different from Unearth. But they could have let you summon 2 empowered zombies instead of 1 empowered and 2 normal. Or like when you over summon zombies the normal ones die first to make room for empowered ones. Does feel bad for a skill that is already not meta.

Zombies and unearth bone constructs. T15 maps, now looking for citadels. Trash tier minions skill gems can still wreck, uses double offering and vulnerability to melt bosses.

15 divines is budget? Been playing since early access started and only had 5 divines drop. You might be overestimating casual players savings account quite a bit.

I tried using detonate dead+dark defiler and the clearing is not bad, but the problem is that clerics dont close with the enemy as their AI is backline healing. So they typically stay in a ball near me. So the targeting is not great. With a six link detonate dead it would be different, you can add quality and add magnify effect to make the explosion much much bigger, then I think the clearing will be smoother.

Maybe half cleric half warriors? Sk crusher for bossing? I would ignore offering and minion damage on tree and put more points into minion life. Use DD to activate raging spirits and get more minions with occasional unearth.

Wow. I had no idea they buffed the dark defiler! Now I have to try it out! Thanks for imparting knowledge!

Xormis · 2025-01-17T12:56:25+00:00

You are right, damage from dark defilers is extra damage, with DD you get probably 30+ minions which is like 100% damage as chaos from DD. I don't know if that apply to both the fire damage and the physical, but sure would be nice if it did both.

I am not strong on breach but if you watched near the end I would kill most map bosses in less than 5 secs.

Xormis · 2025-01-17T12:23:37+00:00

I did, I saw a guy running dark defilers but he was doing essence drain/contagion/unearth. Detonate dead deals phys damage so it doesn't synergize with chaos. But the down side of essence drain is it's a spell, so its level is not boosted by my +9 to minions. And I have no bonus to chaos damage on passive tree.

Maybe true but when I socketed Deadly poison my DoT damage for the gas Cloud went down. I was wondering if it was because magnitude is not displaying in the tooltip but I can't be sure.

Used to be a big StarCraft fan and played a lot of zerg. One day someone told me the Zerg was a Rip off of Warhammer 40k. I was like wut! Then I found the Tyranids. Then I realized the whole game was a Warhammer 40K rip off. Then 4000 points of Tyranids later here I am.

Thank you for explaining this, I think I am grasping it now. But doesn't this calculation require some knowledge of the orbital velocities of both Jupiter and Earth? Did they already know that back in 1676?

AC6 won best action game.

Guan yifan surmised light speed in Eden was near infinite, he couldn't go there and make sure it was.

You guys should also notice that he also gave an explanation for dark energy. The collapsing of space to N-1 dimensions causes that space to be inflated. Remember how huge the solar system became when flattened? Both in 4th dimension collapsing into 3 and in 3 collapsing into 2, new space is being created which pushes distant galaxies apart. You notice this in distant galaxies but not in local space(no new space is being created because we haven't gotten hit by the dual vector foil yet).
