Dude has 4.4k honor..

says armor/resists do reduce honor damage. I wasn't sure on that one.
same with max life? does that magnify with max honor?
"take x damage" afflictions are mitigated by armor, and honor resist.

I had the icon to go there last night, which I'm positive wasn't there before. But all of the options are locked out for me. Perhaps you guys are all suffering because I'm slow and only in Act III, I'm not sure. I can go to my own hideout just fine.

I've checked every single day if I can buy one, but there are still zero choices. I do have the option to gift one to the guild from my own personal MTX, but they are only the premium ones from the supporter packs, and I don't really feel like giving away my $480 one, as I'm pretty sure it is gone after that.

I do see that I have the Sunspire one from PoE1 available to gift. I really liked that one, but again, I think it just vanishes from my own choices if I donate it, and I don't know that I could rebuy it again? I've tried to find a list of ones that transfer over but haven't had any luck. I'm not opposed to spending a few bucks in PoE1 and then donating it here, but I'm not going to just randomly try buying things and hoping they are transferrable. If anyone finds a list, let me know.

no, its not "cast on evade". its "cast on dodge roll".
dodge roll has no CD, but is about .5m.

Cast on Dodge skill gem SAYS, 2 energy per meter travelled while dodge rolling. but its actually 20. so, you could do this with just dodge roll, and no CD. roll, roll, roll. and note, this is the base. the gem itself increases that value by 39-57% level 14-20. there are then also passives that increase this, a support gem, and as noted invoker has a more multiplier for it.
spells linked into cast on dodge give a "max energy" if .1 per 1s of cast time. so, a .8 frost wall, gives a max energy of 80. when you generate 80 energy via dodge rolling, it will cast frost wall.

Blink however converts dodge roll into a teleport.

Blink

Replaces your dodge roll with a short-cooldown Spell that allows you to tunnel through space, instantly reappearing a medium distance away.

poe2db.tw

it has a 4.5s CD. which yeah, is the main issue.
Chronomancer I was playing with this, with our 33% chance to not consume CD, CD reset and 12% cdr in ascendancy. (But we can't hit 300 energy for comet every blink)
"Ingenuity" support is 30% cdr. +10% in passive tree. 3.2s blink CD.

blink is 4.6-5m depending on gem level.

"cast on x" triggers also ignore cast time for actual casting. hence why cast on x+comet was so busted. self casting comet locks you into the cast animation for 2 seconds.
you can blink around the map every 3.2s autocasting comet. (or whatever else you want actually)

IDK if its total bs yet. but its absolutely a step backwards from the elegances of poe1's. they removed all the life nodes from the tree. freeing up passive points!.. then proceeded to add 20% more travel nodes forcing you to spend those points that would have been in life or defenses on TRAVEL nodes.
The shift also does screw with life/es/defenses. again, before it actually was a choice. you wanted life, and needed it? you had to pick life nodes. could stack them. or some areas of the tree were starved and forced you to make choices. now, its baked into flat life at level up. flat life, not %life. and because tis flat, it means life on gear is more important, but also doesnt scale with passives.

Energy shield, CI, etc. well too bad. you can't choose to ignore life. its baked in. and you DONT get the extra passives back.

Fight said:

I have a totally stupid and basic noob-question...

My current setup is W-A-S-D movement and runs three spells on my mouse, left click, right click, middle roller button. The problem is when I try to pick items up off the ground with left mouse click, my guy spams his spells rather than picks up the item. I run all the way over on top of the item, I hold down 'Alt' to reveal the item names, and I click directly on the item name panel and it only picks of the item of 20% of the time. I spam click for like 5 seconds and FINALLY it will pick the item up. It is rather infuriating.

What the fuck? When I had my Wand as my left mouse click, this was never an issue. There has to be a setting somewhere to make this better. What am I missing? Is there a setting to auto-pick up items like you do Gold? I know they have item item filter, but I don't know how that works.

I had that problem on my first char (witch). On my sorc and ranger though, I seem to pick up items just fine.

I remember even complaining about it on the first or second day. I kept thinking I had some kind of weird click to move setting enabled/disabled.

Fight said:

Yeah, I am a Witch and it didn't start till I bound 'Unearth' to my left click mouse button. It is the spell that send a wall of spikes forward, creating temp minions from corpses.

It has killed my pace of gameplay and it takes longer to loot items now than it does to clear the monster packs that drop them. Fucking infuriating.

Solar orb linked to fire pen sounds less effective than using Ball Lightning to shock bosses.

I've dropped Unearth completely. Much like Detonate Dead, when I watch closely it becomes obvious that the explosions from legion/unstable rarely hit anything. They're sort of alright for Ritual and Breach, that's about it. Totally useless on bosses. I would stay away from the Legion/Unstable combo unless you have skeletal warriors from your scepter.

Why contagion? What are you using that makes Wither a significant dps increase?

---------------------------------------
Personally, I've switched from 10 nerfed arsonists back to 13 snipers. Links are Feeding Frenzy, Scattershot, Heft, and Bidding. Still don't have a 6L, but if I did I'd probably take Martial Tempo back from SRS. I was expecting Fork to be really good, but died in the first map (in a Ritual) I tried after plugging it in. First death at all since I started mapping actually. Maybe it was a fluke, but I don't see much point in trying it again until I get a perfect orb.


Not yet.

Stuff like more charges gained, less charges used, charges gained over time/on kill, etc. With only one slot I stick with a golden charm, and none of the others do enough to make me think about searching for a new +1/+2 slot belt.

Gravel said:

Anyone actually seen one of these new belts with more than 1 charm slot?

And speaking of, what the fuck are good mods on charms? They all seem almost identically useless.
