The thing about hives is you get WAY more wombgifts and hiveblood in fortresses, and the chests drop foulborn uniques. Not to mention hive colonies for It That Was Tul/Esh and their drops.

Damn, shaping the skies/mountains is juicy enough to be an auto-include in any strategy now. The route to Unwavering Vision now includes a node for 12% more scarabs. I'm not even sure Unwavering is worth it anymore with the map drop changes. Kind of annoyed where they put Synthesized...

GCP's will be more valuable, and you now have more of a chance to hit eldritch embers as rewards instead of the other stuff, but yeah, seems a little more lopsided this patch. There's always hope now that fracturing orbs are in the common drop pool for currency that the patch will reveal...

yeah when you're not stacking insane cast speed and you're just using it on a 4 link for regular old clear with spellblade/Eblade doing the heavy lifting on damage, it's actually pretty chill and not that ridiculous. that's why noone goes full wintry blast, they just use it to augment a 6-link...

I didn't have anywhere near Connors level of gear and i was about 30% of the speed of this guy, who is JUST stacking cast speed instead of damage. It's still plenty fast.

Looking at this pob specifically, it's gonna be a rough time getting even to just the "FoulbornGhost" loadout. he's got a foulborn dream rolling life, that's a third of his total damage. that's a 280 div item.

This is basically the same thing as Connor's Eblade scavenger from phrecia 2.0, which I played. You teleport around with frostblink for pretty good clear and anything that survives the blink you just incinerate down. if you're doing something like blight or ore nodes or delve you just stand...

Just depends on the Wish. If it's a really good wish, like a good leveling unique, 5-link, etc it'll be worth doing, but yeah 9 times out of 10 if you're trying to speed through the campaign you'll want to skip it. That said, I still enjoy doing the league mechanic during the campaign just...

DUI, nothing exciting.

Yep, good choice. Even just the announcement of not mid-league nerfing something that they freely acknowledge being a broken interaction was pants-on-head retarded. Even I was considering scrapping any other plans and just going for it but I kinda backed off because I thought even WITH their...

refusing to make mid-league nerfs before the league even releases. OK.

I dunno, i think going brass dome 1st and tear of purity 3rd is pretty solid defenses, then your 2nd will really just depend on your build. Kitava's Feast is a solid choice for melee, or Jack the Axe for bleed. Even Terminus Est is not terrible. the spell cluster is kinda wonky since the other 2...

If so, there will be enough public forum outcry that they make a week 1 or 2 balance pass and increase them. It's retarded to gatekeep the main source of borrowed power for the league to be so rare.

Animate guardian having minion life or feeding frenzy will be crazy too. Thinking more on it, I bet AG will be a good money maker. People generally buy AG already at level 20 and they know in advance that they're gonna be spending many divines on good ol' Bob, so shopping for one that saves a...

That's why I'm planning on playing a build that completely ignores skill gems. Arakaali's Fang spoooders here I come!
