Any pre-patch bets on how much less time freeze mine will freeze now? I'd say a hopeful estimate leaves it 500 damage and gives it double freeze duration-that puts it at freezing 1/3 as long to its current 3K amount.

Freeze mine was never the problem, however, it's always been the way it interacts with ele prolif.

The monster should shatter if you use it on a white mob now though. Pretty sick way to fix the problem.

How big of a nerf is the cast on critical strike nerf?

I dunno. Can you reliably freeze whites in high maps anymore without investment? It really gutted effective freeze duration.

I assumed the gem was now stronger vs whites, but can't be abused vs bosses because the whites will eventually die.

Blitz, apparently people claim that the CoC nerf means skills like LA that hit 4 times at once can only activate it once. But Split Arrow + Chain should be basically unchanged as long as you use only one spell with it.
Edit: Apparently it's only to fix crashes and is barely noticeable... someone test it already.

I want to make a new char and was thinking of some kind of trapper to use Freeze Mine with. Does anyone know of a good starting point/guide? Are the deerstalker and sunblast uniques terribly expensive?

[Edit] Found the one I was looking for. I'm curious though if there's an optimal build for DPS for traps or whatnot. What potential variations there are, etc.

Somehow the 3rd highest reward is (almost ?) always terrible.

edit: Nvm was just my imagination then, the 2nd last time it was Divinarius which isn't that terrible. Queen's decree was terrrible too, though.

I'm not sure how much I'll race this season, as I'm not that much into PoE right now. But I'll probably easily get the 4th highest reward anyway (Meginord's).

Hey guys I'm kinda stuck.

Level 75 ranger. I can't farm maps with a party because for some reason when I 6 stack I get disconnected from server after about 3-5 mins and can't return to the map I was farming. All I can do is farm maps solo and at the moment the highest level map I can safely farm is 68 and some 69 maps.

My problem is that my gear is okay but not good enough to progress any further. I also have to sacrifice IIR for resists, so the drops are utter shit most of the time and drops are worth nothing more than a few chaos every now and then, if I'm really lucky. At the moment I don't have the kind of currency to trade for better gear and so far I have only found 1 exalted orb the entire time I've played. I have only ever found 1 5 link item and it was some shitty 2 handed normal staff that nobody wanted and I couldn't use either.

At the moment my body armour and bow are 4 linked. I've looked around for 5link stuff but rare items that have the kind of damage I currently do range around 10-20 exalted. I could buy normal items with 5links that cost around 10-20 chaos and try to roll them but I would probably waste more currency to get it to a decent level that it probably isn't worth it.

So I'm not sure what I should do? Drop resist for the extra magic find and hope for sellable drops at the expense of xp or should I just keep on leveling to progress to better maps? Or is there something else I'm missing?

Get a shitty 5L chest for a few chaos, drop the IIR for resists and hp. That level of maps at that level is fine, just focus on having cap res, high hp,and then as much damage as you can with hp/cap res.

Hp isn't a problem atm, I'm doing a high hp, and strength no crit frenzy/ lighting arrow build. I do about 5k dps with max frenzy charges. My biggest problems are chaos resist (-35) and probably armour which is at about 3k. I'm using hyrris ire, but it isn't doing much really, I'm trying to get rid of it and find something better. Can't find anything with comparable armour (have the evasion to armor passive)

So to clarify, you are using a chest that actively halve's your total armor with iron reflexes?

Good to know I guess...

Rofl.

Okay sorry thats uncharitable and unhelpful. Just buy a decent 5L chest for like 2-3 ex if you have it. One that actually has life and resists, and a non-negative armor total. That will make everything else much easier. Hell, a tabula rasa might be MORE DEFENSE than your current chest and is also a 6link and they cost an exalt and change afaik.

Yes it halves my armor, but even with that, the chest piece alone still gives me 1k+ armour after reduction. I know it's shit, but drops have been that bad for me. As I said before, I've picked up 1 exalt since I've started playing, and haven't picked up anything close to that value. That's exactly why I'm stuck. Did you even read my post?

Forget about chaos resist entirely in favour of life which is far more efficient at defending even chaos damage for now. Revisit this once you are rich.

Are you using the chaos recipe? It's an excellent way to build wealth.

There's no way you can be level 75 and truly poor unless you are blowing currency on retarded stuff. I scrounged up to my very first exalt on a 66 char that never made A3 merci (no I didn't find it).

I dont know what your passive tree looks like (a link may help) but if a 5L bow around your damage range is 10-20 exalts then you should be shitting all over content with no worries. Thats lioneyes range aka 300dps on a bow which is pretty nuts for 75 untwinked.

I maintain that hyrri's ire is negative armor for you since you should be using jade/granite flasks which are much better than the armor from your chest but get halved by it. Roll a jade of reflexes and a granite of iron skin and run around pressing those a lot.

5l 280 pdps bows are around 1ex max if you look harder. you might want to show your current wep and % life from tree.

it seems that new bow ranger players have a hard time getting life from the tree or even good dmg
