When I rip I rip 4 times in a row in 10 minutes lol
Yeah, I just lost all my newbie leveling gear when I just died in the 1st goddamn zone outside of the first town, lol. That goddamned invador bird thing that throws the ice bolts and when it dies the barbs fly in all directions...well, I didn't realize he fire novas like a sonofabitch when you get close to him. Ran up to smack him(playing a groundslam build), and he froze/slowed me, then went goddamn atomic with the crazy fire AE and just wiped me right out. I think that's the quickest death I've ever had in this game, I was like level 3, haha.

You're more than welcome to borrow some of my uniques -- I've got a ton of the low lvl ones. Wanderlust/Goldrim and a set of coral rings/amulet make normal pretty manageable.

Have bones of ullr or sidhebreath for sale?
I've got a Bones of Ullr you can have/borrow; Eidrol in game. I usually play morning EST but if you hit me up on skype (eidal12345) I can log in to hook you up.

You should try a poe.xys.is search on my store (Eidal12345) also for specific gear items. I've got pages of stuff that you can have/borrow, just don't be a meany and put it up for resell ;0

I'm lvl 71 now, finally got MoM/EB/AA running decently, though AA is still pretty low because I'm missing a lot of ES. I'm comfortable farming Catacombs although some of the invaders are still scary enough for me to reroll. Sitting at 3.8khp, 77/77/77, lvl 8ish AA, and MoM. Haven't decided if I want to transition my dual SB templar into detonate dead (and start shopping for a 5L Carcass Jack) or just reroll something new. I initially wanted to try a EK Shadow but I played ZiggyDs EK/MOM/EB scion last season and while tanky, its quite dry. I'll probably try Vaal runs for a bit and buy another exalt or two while I read about different builds -- I've got 5 exalt and probably 2 more in other currency which is definitely enough to make a map-ready alt.

Is there still no fix for particle effect lag? My husband is playing a LA ranger and now that he has reached a certain level of attack speed with haste aura he is awful to play with, lags us out completely. Considering running another dps aura because it sucks.

My ranger at high levels had that 1 second issue also with LA. I switched to physical which was more dps for my lionseye and did a RoA build which also helped with that 1s pause.

If haste works on pets, this seems like a nice corruption.

Can't you not alter things that have been corrupted? Like no more sockets/links or chromes? I haven't gotten into corrupting things yet.

Nope it's final, make sure to quality your shit before your vaal it at least and preferably socket it correctly if it has sockets. It's great for converting shitty uniques into potentially good ones it seems, wouldn't use them on anything of value unless you're wiping your ass with exalteds though.

I saw a picture on reddit of someone that corrupted their legacy Kaom's... and turned it into a crappy rare. I'm scared to mess with Vaal orbs.

Haste works on pets yes, I run haste on my summoner (I use it for my LA ranger duo, but pets still like it). That just gives you level 14 haste aura yeah? That is pretty awesome. It would not however summon your minions with haste for snapshotting purposes though I don't think, you'd actually have the wear the boots to have the aura.

Well, Bones of Ullr is the boots the summoner would be wearing anyway, right? So it's a free level 14 Haste aura which lets the summoner use a different aura in place. Shrug, I'll try PCing it -- Invasion league economy is weird.

Just got a Tabula Rasa in a lvl 67 map. My most valuable drop yet -- feels good man.

Right now I'm doing dual snoring bond still and feeling pretty damn safe in maps. The RoA invader (Corinya?) was a little scary -- her RoA + shocked ground was chunking me pretty hard but shes no where near 1-shot capability. That being said, I'll either have to unfuck my gear (I'm using pretty shitty cheap gear because this character wasn't intended to last this long) or reroll to progress much farther. Debating trying to grab a Carcass Jack and switching to DD. Another influencing factor is that my brother is catching up to me in level and hes playing snoring bond too.

I was reading the Elemental Buzzsaw thread in the Scion forum -- it seems to be a really potent build but I haven't seen any feedback on how well it performs in Invasion.

EDIT: As always, if anyone needs any gearing help hit me up -- I've got a decent stash and really no goal to shoot for now so if you need a hand getting through a tough patch I can loan out gear/currency.

Consider for a moment that corrupted items and unique are not mirrorable. Now also consider all of the other possible corrupted mods this item could have gained most of which would have been useless or marginally an improvement to a summoner. Now also consider how often vaal gems have turned uniques into worthless yellow items rather then give them any corrupted mod at all.

These boots are literally unique and possibly ultra rare combination. Does the haste aura cost mana? If not just imagine a few summoner items with cost free auras.
