Don't like using chaos to reroll bad maps That's the truth. Lost my Shadow Freeze pulser to that fucker. Vaal had never been so easy, then suddenly perpetus. I wanted to cry. I have no idea how you're supposed to live through him without having rolled something on the strength side of the tree.
Pop granite flasks and kill him or pop granite flasks and log out.

Didn't have bear traps or granite. Was a sad day indeed. Got to the same spot on my EK witch and didn't even bother looking for him. Stuck to the water area to be able to gtfo asap lol. This was on normal difficulty btw. I hadn't come across any granites yet.

I'm sort of depressed about the map RNG (and with my main dying). My friend rushed me to A3, I ran like 7 Docks full clears on Merciless, a lot of cool rares and all. Not a single Map though.
maps in regular areas are rare. if that already depressed you wait till you really start maps...
lost over 1 exalt in pure maps yesterday. WITHOUT counting the currency it took to roll em up nice.
started with 25, finished with 9. today drops have been normal again. and last run last night actually gave me 5(!) maps from a single badass 67 thicket. rng is a bitch,esp when it comes to maps
(if people wanna do maps in eu evening/night times pm me, always lookin for more good guys on the flist :>)

My map luck ran out, I run with only a duo group (me and witch friend) and we share maps. we were sustaining and even gaining +1-3 each day until yesterday where the end of our run we did 7 maps and only got 1 back. Ouch. Overall, the day wasn't so bad we did like 15 maps lol!

need advice on what gear upgrade I should focus on next for my Lvl 79 HC LA Ranger
running around with 5,081 HP before auras, 4,723 after
resist total over 80, 107% FR, 98% LR, 117% CR
Armour 6,311, 34% Phys Reduction
I plan on throwing Chaos at my 5L chest. I don't know if I should try to 6S/L, Exalt my bow (just 4S, 2L atm). I'm not sure if I should throw Chaos at my 4Ls or buy upgrades. I'm not sure if I should look at improving my belt, rings, and/or amulet before the other items I've mentioned.
I've been Alching any 39-40 HP Belt, 29-30 Coral, and 12% Resist Prismatic that I find in maps lately.
Thanks for any advice.

What is your goal with upgrading? More damage or more IIQ/IIR? You can never have too much life, but you're already in the sweet spot there basically (maybe more armor).
Wouldn't start chaosing things unless it's max item level. Are all your gems quality already (at least the ones that matter)? Your jewelery and belt seem like the weak points though unless you're willing to drop a ton of stuff on your bow (either exalts and praying for attack speed or just buying a new one). If you can find some double roll all resist rings you can start playing with other parts of your gear easier, but that more depends on what you want to do.
I like how you leave out the fact that you have -60% chaos resistance.

died on my 74 ice spear dual totem templar due to my roommate distracting me for like 2 seconds as impalers with extra physical dmg aura surrounded and killed me like instantly.  didnt even granite/pot -_-
just finished gearing mostly too. spent like 8 or so exalts worth of currency. finally got a 5l, windscream, 83/83/83/-11 resists. 4.3k life.. ugh..
i could solo maps pretty easily and quickly too and it woulda been smooth sails to at least 80ish.
oh well. maybe time to take a break. haha.

CI gets buffed
Life Gain on Hit gets nerfed although don't know by how much
Version 0.10.3
Content:
Added a new Dexterity/Strength skill - Cyclone: Initiates a spinning series of attacks as you travel to a target location.
Added two new cosmetic microtransaction effects: Sawblade Cyclone and Blue Cyclone.
Added four new Unique items, three of which were designed by our Diamond supporters. One of the Diamond Uniques is an end-game Map.
Added doors to the Vaal/Pyramid tileset.
Continued to incrementally improve the art, effects and environments and audio.
Features:
The line for each stat on the character panel now alternates colours so that they're easier to read.
The display of life bars for party members can now display reserved life values.
While on the ground, gems with quality are now marked "Superior".
You now don't get disconnected for linking too many items in chat too fast. You will still be muted for spamming them.
The information that is put on the clipboard when you hover over and item and press Ctrl+C now includes socket information and itemlevel.
Balance Changes:
Increased the damage of Incinerate by 12.5%.
Added Cyclone (which is level 24) to the quest rewards for the Marauder, Duelist and Templar (at the Normal difficulty "Lost in Love" quest), the Shadow (Cruel difficulty Hillock quest) and the Ranger (Cruel difficulty Brutus quest).
There are now four Energy Shield passives behind Chaos Inoculation. There are three 8% additional Energy Shield nodes and a new notable (Infused Shield), which adds a 20% multiplicative Energy Shield bonus.
Life Gain on Hit is now scaled by the Damage Effectiveness of a skill.
Bug Fixes:
Fixed a bug where it was possible for Increased Item Quantity/Rarity supports to stack too many times under some conditions.
Fixed a bug where you would not be told why you couldn't drop items with microtransaction effects on their gems.
Restored the PvP arena that uses the Ship Graveyard tileset, now that bugs with it are fixed.
Renamed the one-handed Ezomyte Axe to Butcher Axe, because the name clashed with another item.
Fixed a bug where you can't vote in a bandit fight if you portal out and back in again.
Fixed problems with the PvP announcer voice occuring at the same time as death screams.
Fixed some discrepancies between Nessa's text and her audio.
Fixed a problem with the visibility of sewer map nodes in higher difficulties.
When you get the Emperor's Road quest, the map is now updated correctly in all difficulties.
Fixed a bug where Hargan might not give you the Act Three sewer quest.
Reduced the size of the Bandit and Blackguard blood.

Ah man, gotta respec some points to get the CI buff nodes. Still wish it had something to do with mana since resource management for CI is a bitch!
Also looking to run some maps on people on Softcore! I need xp and respect map rules for owners of course
I am lvl 81 Ice cold witch, so ideally 69+ maps. My friends stopped playing more often so I've ran out of maps from solo play and stuck with like 5 66 and 67 maps last night. No one wants to sell maps/chisels either, ugh.

Is there any reason to run CI over that new ES chest? (Besides being spec'd too far to get the regen / not being able to afford it. No clue what price it's at at the moment.)
Edit: Jesus. The only ones I found are SC and they are at 29 and 32 exalts. New Kaoms much.

You get total immunity to chaos and don't need any life or chaos resist mods on gear. Also rare ES chests get much more ES then what that unique has. Also new passives will get your total ES to very high with that x20% ES. That passive will multiply your total ES that you get through items/passives/Int by 20%. So with 5000 ES before passive you will now have 6000 ES 
With this changes to CI they brought back CI bow shadows going GR and Vaal pack.

I like their approach to buffing CI - you still get access to a big ES bonus compared to those who don't take CI, but you have to pay up a little more.
