Path of Exile V2 - Games - Facepunch Forum

had my first death from cruel dominus and now I have about 22 at the start of act 2 :v: 34/3/-5 resists is a lot of fun

I got to the end of cruel on my current character with no deaths, then died to Vagan. Fuckin' Vagan.

Some guy has like 4/6 of the gear masters at level 8 and the other 2 at level 7 and he's offering it as a service. [url=http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1027450/page/14/#p8765779]Link to thread[/url] Pay a small fee(Like two Chaos) together with the required currency to roll the items and he will do it for you. No need to grind your masters to level 8 :v: [quote=Gloves] Rarity: Rare Glyph Knuckle Hydrascale Gauntlets -------- Quality: +20% (augmented) Armour: 186 (augmented) Evasion Rating: 186 (augmented) -------- Requirements: Level: 67 Str: 106 Dex: 92 Int: 142 -------- Sockets: B-G-R-G -------- Itemlevel: 69 -------- 82% increased Armour and Evasion +40% to Fire Resistance +32% to Cold Resistance +41% to Lightning Resistance +62 to Maximum Life [/quote] [quote=Ring] Rarity: Rare Oblivion Spiral Ruby Ring -------- Requirements: Level: 39 -------- Itemlevel: 52 -------- +30% to Fire Resistance -------- +21 to maximum Energy Shield +11% to all Elemental Resistances +24% to Cold Resistance +31% to Lightning Resistance +36 to Maximum Life [/quote] Managed to get high life added to both items which would have been semi-useless without.

I've got a couple of questions about CWDT, as I'm wondering about the possibility of a build utilizing it as my main attack trigger. First: does CWDT only trigger for the amount of received damage, or the total amount of incoming damage? For example, if I take a hit that would have dealt 100 damage, but my armor reduces it to 50 damage, do I get 100 damage towards my CWDT trigger, or 50? Second: Does CWDT work with all damage, regardless of source, or does it have to be an attack from an enemy? What I'm considering is whether or not it would be possible to make a Righteous Fire build that rapidly triggers a high-level CWDT gem linked with Arc (an auto-targeting spell), or possibly discharge or other AOE abilities. With high resistances and high life regen, Righteous Fire could be sustained indefinitely. Depending on whether resistances count towards the CWDT trigger or not, it could easily reach the cap of 4 spell-casts per second. With Spell Echo on Arc, that's 8 arcs per second. Multiple CWDT gems could be employed to cast other spells and abilities. As an added bonus, Righteous Fire boosts spell damage by quite a bit! The hopeful end-result is a character that can be completely mobile while constantly spamming spells triggered by his CWDT gems and Righteous Fire. Course, this is all moot if RF doesn't trigger CWDT. So, help??? [editline]9th September 2014[/editline] Nope, it doesn't. Dangit. Is there any other way I could self-trigger CWDT?

I have a hard time imagining a viable build that uses CWDT as a main ability.

Oh, I got one! Can "cast on melee kill" worth with minions? [editline]9th September 2014[/editline] Fuck, nope. Maybe I oughta just stop trying to be creative and whatnot.

What's the point with cast on death? Does it cast a spell when YOU die or when a monster die? Because casting a fireball that might not kill the monster when I die seems pointless. I just don't see anything being cast on death be usefull, maybe except Town Portal

Seems mostly worthless, although you can use it as a big "Fuck you" spell in PvP.

It's pretty good for troll builds. You can also use it to nuke difficult bosses in suicide runs. Clear the little guys with your main, switch characters, and kamikaze that sucker. Maybe slap on a load of item rarity/quantity gear, since defenses mean nil when your entire purpose is to die.

people link it in a PM to a streamer when they die that's the best use for cast on death anyway

Would the gem be balanced if it worked on dying minions, but with reduced damage? Something like -90% damage at level 1, and -3% damage reduction per level (so it is -90%, -87%, -84%, etc.) or -2% damage reduction per level? Keep the increased damage on self to allow suicide builds to work.

The only reason I haven't made a summoner build yet is that the zombies run like disabled children. [editline]9th September 2014[/editline] Also, they are ugly. Gimme a cool zombie skin to buy, and I'll roll summoner all day.

cast on death + portal is the only use i have ever had of it ... and then its still a waste of 2 sockets

Hell Town Portal in itself is useless, I find TP scrolls up the butt making the gem completely useless. [editline]9th September 2014[/editline] Oh and I find buttloads of Wisdom Scrolls too, any use for them besides identifying and throwing away?

[QUOTE=Kentz;45932850]cast on death + portal is the only use i have ever had of it ... and then its still a waste of 2 sockets[/QUOTE] Sockets are so much more valuable than an inventory space. Especially wit the addition of checkpoint spawning there's very little use of it.

Is it just me, or do both 74+ maps and alchemy orbs seem really scarce in the new leagues?

today I spent some chaos rolling a cartographer's box to expand my map pool. I rolled the +1 Rare item and Mirrored mods on it, yet the only thing the box dropped was a rare 68 map... Just a single 68 map, I'm so confused shouldn't it be at least mirrored by the mirrored mod ughhhghgh, I wasted 4 chaos for a fucking 68 map rofl

Still, it's so weird that it dropped that single rare item and nothing else Guess I got rekt super hard lol

[QUOTE=MrFlashcat;45933012]Still, it's so weird that it dropped that single rare item and nothing else Guess I got rekt super hard lol[/QUOTE] Cartographer boxes have been so nerfed compared to the old league.

[QUOTE=ejonkou;45933196]Cartographer boxes have been so nerfed compared to the old league.[/QUOTE] Then again I have miss-clicked and accidentally opened white ones which have dropped 6+ maps, lol.

[QUOTE=unrezt;45932961]Is it just me, or do both 74+ maps and alchemy orbs seem really scarce in the new leagues?[/QUOTE] Give it time, it might increase if people find more crappy uniques and selling fodder for the vendor recipes. In any case people will be more inclined to alch their good white items in the hope of getting a decent rare, especially in a closed environment like the leagues.

[img]http://puu.sh/bsfam/b662a6edc0.jpg[/img] This is the second time I've forgot that this thing exists, and also the second time I've wasted all my rng for the league by chancing it. -_-

[QUOTE=MrFlashcat;45933805][video=youtube;P2RAV02cPv0]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P2RAV02cPv0[/video] im fucking done[/QUOTE] I'm jealous after blowing close to 5 Ex on my Cloak of Defiance this league to 6S and 5L it. Wish I could get this kind of RNG.

im glad i 5 linked my volls with 2 tries :)

[QUOTE=ejonkou;45930149]It should. But the common consensus among Summoners is that necromantic aegis is not worth it. As a Summoner a shield is a large part of your defense and is very vital for your survival on higher end maps.[/QUOTE] Alright, guess I will take a couple shield nodes then.

[QUOTE=leonthefox;45934697]Alright, guess I will take a couple shield nodes then.[/QUOTE] I'd recommend Sanctuary node. The 22% extra all res when holding a shield is amazing.
