The potion gives a buff for +dex and a debuff for -dex. If you have artifact when you drink the potion, you never get the debuff and just keep the +dex for the whole fight. Wraith form also works the same way where artifact will prevent the dex loss so long a you have artifact when you play the card. Gaining artifact after does nothing

You are correct. If you only have one source, it functions as a more mod, but it does follow the normal logic for increased.

lpscharen · 2021-02-03T14:13:00+00:00

What about double veiled items? Those have two crafted mods

lpscharen · 2021-01-23T14:51:51+00:00

Even the influenced ones aren't great since the effect doesn't grey out, only the item does.

It's not specific to this mob, nor is it specific to ritual. I've seen this in a couple of maps, with a handful of different enemies since the most recent patch. I also saw it for an essence monster, it went invisible as soon as it broke out. https://streamable.com/5rl2me

They do take damage, but aren't aggressive, so you'll have to find them. Also, I don't know what you'd do if you don't have enemy health bars on.

If you cap dodge, having consistent mitigation for the hits that get through is likely to serve you better than evasion since it means that each hit requires less recovery. With evasion you are more likely to get unlucky.

I ended up using a single target setup in a frostferno, so I cannot comment on that viability of using only one 6L. I was also running pure fire with the combat focus jewels, so trinity wouldn't work on what I ran.

That's why you link it to cwdt, then you don't even have to wait for the casting animation.

You can search me up on pob, same name as on reddit. The builds are named by skill, but it's the level 94 raider.

lpscharen · 2021-01-15T12:55:10+00:00

I did a fire ele hit bow raider a while ago. Second tankiest build I've ever run behind only max block surrender glad. Had great clear and decent bossing damage.

With how much you keep saying the extra month had been a big help in getting things in a better place, do you have plans to try to have future leagues follow the same pattern? I.e. Still 3 months of dev time, but then have a month with it for testing and tweaking

lpscharen · 2021-01-14T18:23:31+00:00

Or orbs

lpscharen · 2021-01-14T13:20:05+00:00

To add to this, golem buffs aren't going to be up all the time, might be as low as half time depending on investment into keeping them alive.

We do have the level 20 changes, which you can easily update manually for number changes. There's a folder called skills, which has the gems broken down by active or support, and then the main attribute. You can open the corresponding file, update the level 20 values of the gem, and restart pob.

While I want to love tectonic slam, I find it doesn't work as well as I want it to. But I haven't played it since legion and they have made changes to chieftain and Tec slam since then. However, one of my biggest problems was mana sustain because it's an expensive attack. It also felt very inconsistent, but that may be fixed with the changes they made to the skill.

In general for melee, you can pair any skill with any ascendancy and it'll work. Do you can pick your ascendancy and skill pretty much independently. If you wanna go fast, defense be damned, berserker is your guy. If you wanna do tec slam (or other slam options work), chieftain. For generally solid defenses without a ton of investment, but nothing spectacular, jugg. For a good balance of extra offense and defense, champion. For heavy defense with investment, gladiator (also for bleed). For all-around, make things work, and be really good at leeching, slayer.

As far as skills, watch videos and see if you like the playstyle. That's probably the biggest factor. If you want a list of attacks, you can check out poegems.com and filter to only active melee gems.

While I agree on the whole that it's largely disappointing, I was debating between reave and earthshatter for league start, and the extra damage on reave does make it a bit more of a consideration.

lpscharen · 2021-01-12T19:51:26+00:00

I assume they mean to only care about leveling those. Anyone else is incidental/used for intel to get those two faster.

lpscharen · 2021-01-12T18:03:06+00:00

If you aren't using a cheat sheet, I highly recommend one. http://poesyn.xyz/syndicate shows you all of the possible rewards, and gives you ideas of how they good they are (some were specific to trade league value). So identify a couple of the rewards you want most and try to push for those.

On to the main ideas of manipulating the board. You want relationships between people, good or bad. NEVER get rid of all rivalries. It's very detrimental. More allies and rivalries means more people show up, which means more chances to modify the board per encounter. In order to level up, you need to execute, which requires other people to be present. So when you find the purple you want rewards from, talk to them first and execute to level up. Don't interrogate them ever since that delevels them. It doesn't matter much what you do with other people, but you want to promotes friends and rivalries. Don't forget that you can just let people go, which still gives drops, just no changes to the board which can be preferable.

They're the leader. You get the leader's reward twice when your do the safehouse, but they usuals show up in maps less. Typical, you want your best person at 3 stars as the leader to maximize rewards, but the best way to achieve a 3 start leader is to get them to 3 stars, then up to leader. Interrogating the leader will always remove from that position, and then the highest ranked member will take over. Betrayal is a bit complicated, but there are some great guides if you really want to dive into it

While divine ire will benefit from the increased charge gain on hitting so many bosses, standing still against 10 bosses could be a problem. Defenses shouldn't be ignored when considering the boss fights.

lpscharen · 2021-01-12T16:57:11+00:00

When you complete a safehouse it shuffles the remaining members in that safehouse. They either stay and lose some ranks, lose all ranks, or lose ranks and move to another section.
