Path of Exile is a MAJESTIC incline

Archnemesis

Some changes to HH?
Rare mobs rework?
Or "build your boss" but it's getting stronger with every fight?
Just don't recycle Rirual/Ultimatum plz

 

[Kjaska]

Short and awesome. I love this reveal.

Some changes to HH?

Highly unlikely. They cucked HH plenty with the self-curse nerfs anyway. It's in a much better spot now.

I doubt this league will have anything to do with Nemesis. It's probably going to be a low-key league like Ritual that allows the Siege of the Atlas expansion to take center stage.

manifesto

• Cast while Channelling Support: Now has "Supported Triggered Spells deal 30% less Damage" at all gem levels.

fuck, was going to test it on my STD character

In general, we're focusing on two particular archetypes that we feel were the least competitive with other builds during Scourge. These are handcast spell builds and hit-focused bow builds.

by nerfing other builds?

also somethng about nerfing traps

 

[Kjaska]

Bows are getting buffed to the fucking moon and Havoc just did a sub 4h run on a bow character in this patch:

Spoiler

 

[Baron Dupek]

Bow league?
That reminds me - did they removed this stupid effect where arrows sticked to the walls?
Or it's even out (performace wise) after they let you hide items not included in your loot filter?

 

[Peachcurl]

Time for another gun-turret run? :]

 

[Jaedar]

Bow builds were always good, but usually held back by the annoying need to slot barrage for single target. Somehow I doubt this is fixed.

 

[Tacgnol]

I'd skip bows this league if you're planning to play trade. I'm guessing everyone and their dog will try to play bows this league and the prices for anything will be super high.

If you're going SSF it probably won't matter though.

Ritual 13c? nah
At least Beyond is still there...
still no Nemesis, guess it's gone for good until they remove that sextant mod?

 

[Kjaska]

Zana isn't gonna make it

 

[Cyberarmy]

I still miss old Zana (Russian accent?) and old Scion....

 

[Kjaska]

Yeah, original Zana had way more character.

Now taking recommendations for bladefall builds. SSF viable please.

Convert into Fire, that is best. Also use Hatred aura for more physical into elemental. You can farm that Abyss armor that will give you elemental pierce vs all elements. It is easy to self link it into 5L and 6th link is free.

This feels like step 1. What about ascendancy ? Also iirc bladefall has pretty bad dps.

It is getting a damage buff in upcoming league. Ascendancy depends on if you play softcore or hardcore. Crit Inquisitor can work well for softcore, you don't even need elemental penetration in that case. You can also go Chieftain for full focus into fire. Occultist is also good, you get a bunch of bonus damage as Occultist and also nice for critical focused spells.

Chieftain ought to be good but it seems hard to get the necessary dex to us the spell since there's basically no dex nodes in that part of the tree. There's kinda the same issue for inquisitor and occultist, but a bit less since it's closer to assassin.

Step 1: roll a Bladefall character
Step 2: suffer through the campaign
Step 3: reroll into a Detonate Dead/Unearth Witch

 

[ArchAngel]

I am also planning to do a self cast spell build to test their "buffing". Last time I did something like that, it was Occultist Arc with Unleash and it was decent but never super awesome. Not even once I switched to LL and used Pain Attunement. Clear was decent, bossing was not.

Not sure what to play now. I would like to play with Cold spells but 2 good ones (Frost Bolt and Freezing Pulse) had their projectile jewels removed which kills their clear or their bossing (unless you switch gems before every boss like battle which is super irritating ,especially since rares with combination of mods can be tankier than bosses).

Maybe it is time to try that Firestorm character I wanted to try. Or Ice or Shock Nova.

Ignite got a boost with new patch but I played Ignite Elementalist last league so I don't want to do same.

Imagine starting to use your main skill before getting to maps.

Archnemesis looks here like Metamorph 2.0
edit -

In the Archnemesis league, you'll build your own Rare boss fights by applying new monster modifiers to petrified monsters, found throughout every area

told ya

Atlas Scouting Reports?
what



oh and new stash tabs - for gems and flasks
neat?

 

[Jaedar]

Atlas-wide Passive Tree

Seems nice actually, the first 30-50 map completion bonuses tend to come really quickly, so it should be pretty fun to get stuff. Of course figuring out which direction to go on first open will be tricksy.
Archnemesis looks pretty meh. Superpowered rares tend to be some of the worst encounters as they don't telegraph their attacks. Metamorph 2.0 is right.

 

[Reever]

Thank god they took away the stupid watchstone system.

Patch notes are up btw
