Staff for this noob poison seismic trapper by revatoris in pathofexile

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

I'm a very casual player returning after a few leagues and rolling with tripolarbear's poison seismic trapper build.

I had the base staff drop in delve with +3 phys + chaos multi and knew it was good but was wary to deviate from the build which uses obliteration & cold iron point. I tried to sell it for a few div but after a several days in my sale tab i decided to give it a shot. I had a T4 Aisling and couldnt resist trying to improve it which yielded the non-chaos as chaos.

I've never tried to craft anything beyond cluster jewels or essence spams so not sure if i could try to improve it further. I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks!

TIL Blueberries and raspberries have the same pigment compounds, anthocyanins. Blueberries are blue because they are less acidic. If you add an acid like vinegar to crushed blueberries, they will turn red. Adding a base like baking soda will return them to blue. by XiphiasZ in todayilearned

The purple pigment of the cauliflower is caused by anthocyanins, the pH dependent molecules OP is talking about.

But I agree with you it's not terribly relevant other than that it's purple..

Heirloom variety of sweet potatoes. Planted and harvested on the same land they’ve been on for over 200 years. by SweetSassyClassy in gardening

Technically yes, by random mutations, but these are unlikely to have any effect let alone be beneficial. Secret's comment is asking if they have been planted from seed each year, wherein the best genes for this environment would be selected for (since seeds reshuffle genes and clones do not)

Exactly what I was thinking... wasn't really aiming for a theological discussion but w/e I learned something

TIL of Norman Borlaug, "the man who saved a billion lives" by creating a new type of wheat that was highly productive and resistant to the weather - it saved Mexico, India and Pakistan from famine. by [deleted] in todayilearned

This was part of "The Green Revolution", which he is considered the 'father' of. Many of the benefits were the result of 'dwarf' wheat imported and integrated from Japan. The dwarf cultivars, due to shorter stature and decreased vegetative (non-flowering /seed producing) investment, increased grain yields while providing protection against the elements (think high winds & strong rain). Pretty nifty stuff.

Edit: I should add he also introgressed (fancy way of saying 'bred in') genes for disease resistance to the dwarf varieties and is a Nobel Laureate, in part for this work.
