    Boooooo! I just spent all night theorycrafting! https://pobb.in/6aoWJEXpWR5Q Still, as you say, quite good. I try to normalize "Starter" level of gear to 10s of chaos per item with a few exception. Like in this case, with tons of added flat, the obvious answer is Paradoxica. And...

    Haven't had time to play with this in PoB. I was thinking the energy blade smite shell would adapt to this pretty well. Perhaps more interesting: a high end flame link build add more flat to the merc, min and max, than your merc adds max flat to you. But getting and defeating a non gay merc...

    What rings are you using on the merc? The Esh rings for lighting damage -> aura effect?

    How much flat would you estimate that wrath is adding? 50-2000? Rallying Cry mercs were a thing during 3.26. The ones I remember were going for maximum clunk and combined them with retaliation skills :|

    Oh, that's dumb. I thought merc level was supposed to scale some generic buff stats and gate gear they could equip. Gem levels makes incremental upgrades more important and explains why the 83 combatant was trashing my control blocks combatant. This system is too powerful and only "balanced"...

    How are you getting level 40 wrath? I didn't think they were skill gems.

    Increased effect of non-curse auras in the presence of pinnacle bosses?

    I love putting a build together in PoB only find core components that cost 10s of chaos last league now cost 10s of divines(MoM Impossible Escape). Kinda at a loss what to play. I like HRoC Necro(Gravebind and Kulemak staff with pops is required), but it can't handle Destructive Play with the...

    I'm having trouble transitioning from a derpy control blocks merc to a cheap 83 merc. Am I really supposed to reset control blocks until I get a combatant without spectral helix?

    Thanks. The grouping construct is what I was missing.

    If you want a combatant with static strike and frost blades, both eligible for chain, how do you filter on the chain support on frost blades only?

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    The /review skill is multi agent. The supervisor fires up a documentation, bug, complexity, git history, etc agents, checks their findings, scores them, and then presents it to you. AFAIK, it doesn't go back to the sub agents with "no, this is dumb", so there's not really a dialogue going on...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Can you tell the difference if someone had already done an AI review on their code? If not, doesn't that imply you should review your own code similarly? If you can, do you toss the review away as it's potentially already into garbage territory? I've definitely done what your teammate has...

    That's definitely a "solution" and one my boss went to almost immediately. He's on the $200 Claude Code plan and was complaining about running out of tokens 5 days into his weekly session. I was lamenting having to ask for more(because I don't think we've solved the baggage that comes with AI)...

    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    Does anyone here use AI for reviewing code? clear conversation -> Review -> Fix or refute(and save to memory!) -> repeat I've never been able to get it to converge, it always finds new shit. And later into that cycle, a significant chunk of the findings are code changes it made.
