Then again, maybe it is good and it's just my wrong judgement after playing Ball Lightning Miner in Metamorph which was broken good for bosses and an equally strong summoner in the league before that. | ||

Regardless of how good their gear looks or their HP/mana, etc. Does seem like it's going to be a weird gem to balance though with how mana scaling and certain ascendancies work right now. That's true, but in the latest reviews the chars showcased have pretty good gear compared to how it used to be. The char in the Archmage + Arc showcase uses a 6L with all blue gems which is what I would as well on PoB which kinda hints they are perfect, and the amount of mana is hard to reach. It's possible that the build is inefficient though, that's impossible to tell. | ||

Kinetic Bolt and fooling around with new spellslinger ideas sounds like a lot of fun too, but I'm not sure how much better wand leveling will be with their buffs yet, and none of the good relevant ascendancy ideas are really exciting me. I'll probably just wait until the actual patch notes come out and let people smarter than me digest all the numbers and how good/bad it's going to feel. Have they discussed how removing cluster jewels will work? If you slot in a cluster jewel and then spend talent points on those new passives, what happens when you remove the jewel? Does it instant refund? Or are you NOT allowed to remove the jewel UNTIL you refund all the passives? | ||

I hope they buff Scion a bit, they usually end up with some extra points and with the "Start at Class of your choice" option you can probably get to the outer rim quickly. Also I was planning on playing Bleed Bow Gladiator, but now I'm worried it'll suffer from mathil effect. He just listed it as his #1 budget build (#2 build overall of metamorph) | ||

Lots of discussion recently about the new atlas and lack of catro seals / targeted mapping. This might be of interest. | ||

This might be of interest. It sounds interesting. If I understand it well, it encourages completing all maps in the region so you can get this "token" and choose what maps drop more often. It seems a good compromise between targeting map and favouring map variety. | ||

"Ignite Proliferation is not going to work on mobs spawned by Delirium as they don't have corpses. Skills like ED/Cont. will work as they proc on kill and do not need a corpse." Didn't they have this same problem in legion league... really annoying if true | ||

As for the cluster jewels, most of them so far don't really seem good. They cost a lot of points that are usually needed for crit, life or other amazing clusters. Let's see tomorrow when they'll announce ALL of the notables. | ||

1) roll stormbind mana stacking hieropants 2) ??? 3) reroll bane (+ed for single target) occultist 4) profit on one hand i am glad they removed the teleport from stormbind (sauce: baeclast), on the other hand that make the skill infinitely less meme tier. spellbind looks cool too, but i have no idea about wands, so imma let some other ppl check that out first. tbh i am fairly hype, seems like there is a lot of cool stuff you could do this league, though delirium not leaving corpses kills some ideas I've had. can't wait for the patchnotes to kill the rest of my plans. eg totem buffs might make me go divine ire hieropants again. edit: yeah no portal challenge makes me sad. the horns are somewhat cute, the rest is fairly ugly, so def. not pushing for 36/40 unless i _really_ like the league. | ||

Any reason why that wouldn't be viable? | ||

If you invest in trap damage, the explosions won't be scaled by that if they are from a totem. One cast of explosion can blow 50 blades so I'd think along the lines of 4l cluster trap BF for clear/blade generation and 6l explosion for Single target. You only need the explosion cast very occasionally. I really wanna see the 20/20 gems since the numbers on the blade blast and animate weapon gems are going to be crucial in picking a build for me | ||

I don't think I'm going to play animate weapon though, I experienced it when it was hilarious with spell totem and over 100 weapons. Especially because I expecd the maximum to be at like 20 now. If I'd play a summoner, then I'd rather do my skeleton necro from 3.8 again, unless they nerf the duration of vaal summon skeleton since that was half the fun (using it at the end of delve encounters & blight made both doable by just waiting). If none of the new gems excite me it's possible I'll do a Wild Strike Inquisitor (Inquisitor because fuck all the elemental res on map mods in addition to boss res). | ||

Question: has anyone ever tried hybrid Life/ES, with the Doryani timeless jewel, then leeching both health and ES? I'm wondering if a Wand Spellslinger build, using attack damage leeched as life, and spell damage leeched as ES, could get pretty tanky in that way I think the way leech cap works would mean that I would have a separate leech rate cap for life and ES right? | ||
