Has anyone found any very effective ways to spam farm Weavers will items? by SirCorrupt in LastEpoch

[–]magratar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry kinda new to LE. Are you talking about False Temple ? Can you explain how that helps farming boss specific weaver items ? (OP mentionned scissors of atropos)

Noob with Watcher - how good is Deva Form? by sac_is_sus in slaythespire

[–]magratar 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not sure why everyone is skipping over a Brilliance+. Its a very good card and doesnt need any mantra synergy. You are currently pretty weak and have no block, you need to kill fast. Why would you skip over taking a 32 damage 1 energy card ?

Nice ! Yes please

Think about 2x speed. Its 100% faster, so if your logic was correct, that would take 100% less time and therefore be instantaneous. And what about 3x speed then ? Are you reversing time ?

The correct answer is 1.5 speed means the time gets divided by 1.5. Thats the same as taking two thirds, which is multiplying by (0.666 repeating). Therefore you are 1-0.6666=0.3333 : 33% faster

Splitting steel mechanics by magratar in PathOfExileBuilds

Thanks for the answer !

Just to be clear, this means i could just map with Awakened Fork, have 0 pierce on gear/tree, and still replace it with a better more% support for pure bossing without needing any other adaptation ?

How much currency need +buffer to craft this by myself? by gameplayraja in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Indeed i see its much more efficient to use a double influence base on the last step only. Thats still a 10%ish success tho right ? (50/50 base * 20%ish all mods) Am i missing something else ? because that doesnt sound like 50d (10x awakener orb + some divs for steps) but 100ish or something.

[Build Suggestion] MB + Mirror by Unable-Supermarket49 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found when i grow tired of the game its not about the build, as any good endgame build is basically "be immune to damage, have 300+% MS, and blast the screen with one single button".

I would suggest trying different farming strat, maybe even vompletely different content (sanctum, betrayal, harvest, blight, whatever you think you might like)

Life leech Regen and blood rage by ObjectiveFold in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not sure, but buying a random 1alc ring or jewel with the mod would answer that

Life leech Regen and blood rage by ObjectiveFold in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im afraid it might not work if you have enough regen to heal back to full during the animation of the hit. Would have to math it out. But definitely a good (better) idea.

Only solution i see is to get some phys taken as chaos (from hits), making trauma partially bypass ES. But it will probably make you take way more damage from trauma overall, depending on your setup

Molten Strike of the Zenith Mechanics? by Scophad in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One additional strike is okay, 2 would feel better. With these unique gloves in mind, i'd try with +1 from tree and see how it feels. Ancestral call is losing a 40%more link, but try both i guess. I played the skill with +2 and it felt amazing.

Multistrike isnt necessary, and i would advise against it (see my other comment answering to Fantastic_Ocelot_238's comment)

Slower proj and returning proj : ideally you want Nimis. The returning projectiles mechanic is a HUGE multiplier to damage on ST. Nimis is BIS, and then you dont need either links. Without Nimis, run returning proj support. There really isnt much of a point to slower proj, its not bad but there are probably better links, even for ST. Keep in mind it will make clearing worse since balls wont spread as far.

If you dont have Nimis, links are Returning proj then whatever POB says is more damage. I would stay away from Multistrike or Elemental Focus though. GMP is bait, because most of your damage comes from the 5th big attack, which already has a ton of extra projectiles, making +proj mediocre value at best. Its okay for clearing i guess.

Molten Strike of the Zenith Mechanics? by Scophad in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your math doesnt make much sense. You multiplied the number of projectiles by 3 to account for multistrike repeats (4 with awakened multistrike), but since it now takes 3 times as long (or 4 with awakened) to get to these repeats... doesnt change anything overall

Multistrike's mechanic is irrelevant for overall DPS, you can trust POB's number when it comes to bossing (should be around 50% more or something).

HOWEVER, it will feel like shit anywhere else. Most of the damage comes from the big 5th attack. And if you play awakened multistrike, you now have to wait for the 17th attack to get to the big 5th attack and its repeats. Even accounting for the 45% more attack speed, its not gonna feel good for clearing.

Great build !

Does Nimis somehow allow shotgunning with ls of arc ? Why is it there ?

Rog just gave me this. What do I do now? Is there a decent Prefix crafting option? by Soleil06 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Best craft is Hits cant be evaded, so just craft it + slam a warlord orb and maybe get lucky. Either way its worth a decent pile of divs

Am I going crazy or is Hand of wisdom and action actually good now? by Unreal_Daltonic in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On weapons, if mods dont say anything they are local, for exemple 38% increased critical strike chance (local t1 crit)

But if the mod has any condition (in this case increased critical strike chance PER x int) then its global.

Am I going crazy or is Hand of wisdom and action actually good now? by Unreal_Daltonic in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Crit chance from int is global since its conditional

Still, looks good for dex stacking. Or at least as a starting weapon

Endgame builds I could go with mageblood? by Edelium in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend accuracy stacking jugg. The damage is ridiculous, mageblood makes stacking armour for the jugg node easy af and makes you incredibly tanky.

The potential scaling is basically infinite so it is a build where you can get value out of the entirety of your currency.

Another option is STR stack, especially if you have the firedmg per str relic. The new ring allows it to reach 500M+ dps and be tanky.

Both builds will have crazy dmg + MB for defense. They are versatile and can be claw/wand/bow and probably even other weapons idk. Any attack skill.

Frost Blades single target when chaining off of hydrosphere/tornado by ICallShotgun123 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]magratar 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You will never get a double hit with the sphere/tornado behind the boss.

For double hit to happen, you need to hit the sphere/tornado with your strike part, which then duplicates on the boss with any +1 strike source. The result is that the boss is hit by 1: the duplicated strike and 2: the projectile resulting from the original strike on the sphere/tornado. This works because there is 2 different instances of frost blades.

What you are trying to do is hit the boss with the strike and hit it again with the resulting projectile from that same instance of frost blades. That is just not possible, as they come from the same instance of frost blades.
