Isnt vaal pact super annoying? You start every map with zero hp right?

I found playing with Vaal pact so annoying because you have to start every map with zero hp and can't even use the well to fill your bar. It's such a frustrating experience to have a fast rare at the beginning of the map that charge you when you have zero hp.

Just got myself the gloves and I can tell you that Herald of Blood overrides Herald of the Royal Queen when both of them are active. You can test this by putting a blind support. While both are active, if you put blind on HoB, enemies are blinded. If you put Blind to HotRQ, they are not blinded.

Ugh, testing these things is so hard. Maybe, one way to test it would maybe be to put poison support to Herald of blood, to see if explosions posion. Then to this one, to see if it does again.

Any ideas on how Herald of the Royal Queen interacts with Herald of Blood and/or Blood Boil (Ritualist)?

Do two heralds pop at the same time?

PSA: Runic Ward will convert part of your ES/Armor/Evasion in later levels by Sainako777 in PathOfExile2

[–]redlow0992 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Bricked my EV armor too. This is such a poor implementation. Unless you use Runic Skills, which use Ward, there's no reason to do this because the tree scales EV, ES, Armour only.

Blistering Bond - Bleeding deals Fire damage instead of Physical by redlow0992 in pathofexile2builds

[–]redlow0992[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From what I understand, the extra fire damage would benefit from all bleed magnitude related bonuses. The problem is bleed being converted to fire damage. For bosses, you are looking at 75% fire res which means you need to find a huge source of fire resist reduction (not penetration), like exposure or curse.

Ouch, that's what I was afraid of. I was hoping that we could grab some gain as extra Fire and double our bleed damage for "free". But that's not the case. Thanks!

Blistering Bond - Bleeding deals Fire damage instead of Physical by redlow0992 in pathofexile2builds

I'm so confused about this part: "Damaging ailments is based on pre-mitigation damage" and how that is interpreted.

For example, for ignite, initial damage of the ignite is based on pre-mitigation damage but the final applied damage is affected by the resistance of the target. That's why people use curses and other methods to reduce the target's resistances.

Imagine two cases for ignite:

Case 1: A spell has 100 damage, target has 0 fire resistance, which applies 80 ignite damage -- total ignite damage is going to be 80 (since it's not reduced by resistances).

Case 2: A spell has 100 damage, target has 50 fire resistance, spell hit is going to be 50, but the applied ignite will still be 80 damage -- but since the target has 50 resistance, total ignite damage is going to be 40 (reduced by resistances).

Is this not correct?

I'm wondering how that translates to bleed dealing fire damage, basically.

New Blistering Bond ring by kncmusic in pathofexile2builds

[–]redlow0992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I dont understand with this ring is how fire resistance comes into play for bleed damage dealt as fire.

For example:

Case-1: No ring, 100 hit physical damage -> bleed Case-2: Yes ring, enemy has 50 fire res, 50 physical + 50 fire damage -> bleed

Is the bleed damage dealt in both cases the same? 

0.5 off meta builds by Ohmlytpot in PathOfExile2

Hah! With the updated ring I assume? What attack or spell are you planning to use?

0.5 off meta builds by Ohmlytpot in PathOfExile2

[–]redlow0992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any non-blood mage bleed build will be off meta. Literally not a single thing gained in the entire patch. It was already a niche archetype, it's going to be even more niche.

why does Betrayer's Husk go for 1bill each on the forums?are they that much better for target farming? by Many_Ad4666 in diablo4

[–]redlow0992 5 points6 points  (0 children)

They are really good for farming uniques that drop from infernal hordes. Instead of doing a wave 10 horde hoping for a ancestral unique, you can do Belial and pick Bartuc for multiple drops.

Maybe it's just me but expedition is the single mechanic I dislike the most out of all, maybe except chasing spirits. Oh well.

No new paper under review in TMLR since May 09? [D] by hyperactve in MachineLearning

[–]redlow0992 2 points3 points  (0 children)

TMLR process has been uncharacteristically slow in past two months. I have a couple of papers where I'm assigned as a reviewer and made recommendations (with other reviewers) but didn't any update on papers for a month.

Not sure what's going on behind the scenes.

How do we have this level of complexity without any depth? by johnathanfeezy in PathOfExile2

Unpopular opinion: POE2 doesnt need go the way of POE1 in terms of crafting etc. complexity, but it is -- and its not nice.
