I like the love for a lot of skills that needed it, ED, Lightning Trap, EK, Cremation, DD, Ice Nova and so on. There's gonna be a lot of shit that'll be fun to play.

Not sure yet, ED Occultist is suuuper tempting. I miss that build.

Fireball buff! And Fork now gives MORE damage at higher levels :D
I think Trickster Fireball Ignite is what I will play. And then switch to some self cast leech CI version of Trickster once poe.ninja has enough of lvl 95 tricksters :D

Why does ED deal higher base dot damage than Vortex now, that's stupid

The most buffed skill is probably Ice Trap, it received 55% more damage per use, 60% more damage efficiency and 25?% more radius. Not sure if that makes it strong though.

Shock Nova also got buffed A LOT, it'll likely do decent damage now, but it still got the same range... I'd rather do Lightning Tendrils instead which got quite immense dps now, is a channeling skill and got quite decent AoE now at lvl 20.

EK and Spark are the most tempting for me though, EK got a huge damage buff and Spark a smaller one but a large one against single targets.

All in all, a lot of spells are stronger now for self casting and weaker for mines/traps. What they didn't address though is totems, which makes me thing that to be honest Hierophant with all these spell changes is probably the best choice for easy and cheap high damage + clear speed...

ED and other exisiting chaos spells were buffed, I hope soulrend and bane will be comparable in damage. I'm also kinda tempted to do a CoC spark cycloner xD

Woohoo, Openarl updated PoB... given how long it's been since that happened, some people were afraid of no update. Yay!

AoE descriptor means that ED can be supported by Conc Effect with virtually no downside. Conc is a 54% more multiplier support when most of ED's other common supports like Void Manipulation cap out at 39%.

Yeah its crazy how fast PoB was updated. Its almost like he found out about the changes before they were announced.

It actually isn't.
You can find more info on reddit but the gist of it is that things like Conc Effect do not effect DoT's applied by the skill unless the DoT is only applied while your inside the area.

So Vortex deal DoT damage while your inside the area and is therefor area damage
While ED applies a DoT to targets inside an area and then stays with them regardless and is therefor not area damage.

The only real benefit from ED now being a area skill is that you can increase the area where it applies through Increased Area of Effect, potentially removing the need to use Contagion to spread it.
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

I cant imagine that happening as a good contagion chain can clear 2 screens of mobs.

Maybe this is the inbetween league to skip before melee rework. Maybe this the time to ED.

Time (two days) will tell.

The ED build from a few leagues ago (3.0 I think) was about spamming contagion first and then blasting it with ED for whatever survives + bosses. I think this'll make it the same but a lot more effective.

I'm going ED/contagion for starting. I'm hopeing for flicker after that.

It definitly seems like they're gearing up for 4.0. First masters and now Spells then Melle means that they should have space for something big.

Soulrend looks pretty spooky. I'm so torn I might make 3 characters this league.

Mmmm well I put together a SWT trickster build because... why not I guess, who doesn't want to play trickster! Carcass jack plays very nicely into the new trickster defensive skill. 800ES chest. Shroud of lightless pretty good too. Will see how it performs as a starter.

Still leaning Storm Brand for pure league start despite the nerf, it's still going to be good white map clear lol. Dunno what ascendancy tho. All the Trickster hype has me thinkin. ES seems like it's going to be sick this league even early on with a low budget.

Fireball looking pretty juicy too with the buffs and the new chain/fork changes too.
