That's also really good QoL. These were a really good feature from ToTA and made 6 linking not a pain in the dick. Also lessons the value of shit like tainted fusings which can be anywhere from 5c to 50c depending on the league. Omen of Fortune also allows guaranteed chanced uniques which can be a $ saver if you're lucky or just save a fuck ton of pain when trying to get shaper/elder uniques.

As a shitter I'm pretty happy to see Omen of Amelioration make a return. I assume they'll all be more rare and thus more expensive but that's just fine.

Odds these are added to certain heist chests and it becomes the best source of them?

Assuming you're willing to use a 2h (which you are cause rakiatas exists) this obliterates regular molten strike when you account for the 5 extra proj all returning to you with nimis or return support.

You can also reasonably use intimidating cry for double damage in boss situations.

Got the urge to do the math...Looks like 134% more damage than normal one if no extra projectiles but even with 4 extra it's still 87% more.
This doesn't account for the damage you lose on the melee hit or the extra flat on old MS.

Do you think it's worth dealing with Call of Steel for 2 more projectiles, 11% more attack speed, and some base radius?
Nope.
Unless it turns out that base radius is absolutely necessary for overlaps. But I doubt it. Also, fuck hitting call of steel every 5 attacks. That's not a typo, I doubt they fixed the bug with Splitting Steel eating your last shards but then not splitting.

ggg should just not include any notes on an rf gem and just shove it into the league to let people find on their own. the amount of melting down of rf enjoyers is hilarious and dont want it to stop

I wouldn't play the build. I'm not playing with Call of Steel. It has such poor feedback.

I'm somewhat concerned that my testing is flawed. Is Kuduku a bad test? Maybe the guy on the tidal island?

You fucking no lifers keep making fun of people that want to play RF and forget that for people that don't play this game all the time they are required to find a damage skill that scales while also worrying about gearing for some combination of around 5 of the following:

Life
Energy Shield
Armor
Ele Res
Chaos Res
Avoidance
Spell Suppression

Even with some of these capped you can still be one-shot and not ever know what did it.

Mathil is a Z level celebrity that can shut the fuck up about people not wanting to make POE a JOB like his fucking ass has done.

Sunder of Earthbreaking:
8 waves vs 5​
3 shockwave targets vs 5​
250% dmg vs 325% dmg​
90% speed vs 70% speed​
75%(!) less wave delay​
And doesn't gain area as it goes.​

Hmmm, looks like you could scale it via attack speed and not warcries for a change. The lack of increasing area kind of sucks, it's already a fairly directional skill without massive AOE investment, but it might be decent scaling it as a rage + attack speed type of thing. Plus you're very far away hitting things with the 8th wave. Looks like it's more like classic Sunder used to be? Might be fun, and damned powerful in corridor type maps.


Penance Penance there's what you run with your 6 second EQ: rage vortex of berserking! Hit EQ, hit RVoB, run like an angry bitch for 6 seconds, SCREEN GO BOOM

Wild strikes and volcanic fissure look interesting from today's batch of gems.

If you had very limited playtime wouldn't you Deadeye Lightning Arrow?

I mean im probably starting deadeye LA. For a few reasons besides it being a good build:
Warden of the maji just seems like the best early league ascendancy and its only attacks.
Can get dying sun to full uptime and 3 projectiles (with good belt) next to a tincture which should be dirty good for tornado shot.
Also not as neccessary to get 21/20 on attacks compared to spells now that lvl 20 gem -> 20 qual gem vendor recipe is gone which sucks for spells.
Plan on farming some legion and buying some power charge stacking items before they explode in price if i can for a 2nd build, exact skill tbd.

Before patch notes i thought i was going to start ele ignite into EK ignite again but it lost 40+ proj speed (and cast speed with nova version)

Played LA Deadeye last league. works great for mapping, great coverage for legions, great for heist too. easily transitionable to tornado shot if you want to take it to the next level.

Struggles a bit with bosses, but if you're having trouble with one you can ask in guild.
