Died offscreen to the tentacle miscreation like one of the popular folk! Kind of suprised, -10% chaos res 8k armor 3400 life, dropped like a rock, like 2 projectiles, also have bubble spectres 3 of them and 8 zombies up.. kind of confusing.
At least on the plus side as a summoner I don't lose all my items when I die, yay for snapshotting apparently there are ci players who got instaraped as well, so i think its pure physical thats hits REAL hard. heres proof immortal call blocks chaska 100% Im more concerned about the apparent inability of projectile immunity bubbles from blocking projectiles than anything else here, I don't stream so I don't have hard evidence, but its not the first time I have noticed a unique boss hitting me or my spectres while their bubbles are up with attacks that are considered projectiles. *edit* Apparently the deathrain that does a billion damage before any human could possible react is a spell, which explains why it went through my spectres bubbles.
Bubbles block spells, too. The difference is that all the "make it rain" spells they added to invasion and corrupted bosses act like firestorm, where the damage technically originates within the bubble so it's not blocked by proximity shield. It's the same reason traps pierce the bubble.
If they were modeled after RoA, I think they would be blocked, but don't quote me on that.

I did math on her damage over on reddit. Math of Exile best Exile. I'm kind of annoyed by bubbles behaving inconsistently between players using them and mobs using them, I'd support that as a bugreport if I were you.
@Flameblast crit: I'm not sure if a build with a slow casting spell, an effective 30% chance to crit before gear and not even 200% life is the smartest idea. The base crit just sucks too much ass.

IMo the best way to build a fireblast burn build is not to stack crit but to stack chance to ignite, i dunno how high you can get with flameblast, but with EA you can hit 100% chance to ignite.

I know, with quality flameblast u can do that too.
3k life, 700 es currently, 2 slots missing each ~30 life, skilltree missing ~28% maxlife at lv ~79.
The spell is not a slow casting spell. This spell is one of the fastest spell you can cast since the "castspeed" so to speak is limited by ur "APM".
You never want to channel FB. Since I can click fast enough to make it hit monsters 3-4 times per sec it's pretty guud.
And as I said I played the cookiecutter FB (chance2ignite,conceffect,eleprof,lifeleech/firePen/IncBurn) to lv81 and one to mid 70.
Why I thought about trying crit with FB was that if you don't have a %flameblast you will have about 44%+14% from curse+gem = 58% chance2ignite.
I currently run ~60%crit and 11%chance to iginite via curse.

what do people think about the id scroll mechanic? after playing a bunch of d3 again i find iding stuff too tedious lol.
/full casual hopeless

I think it's fine, for casual play it's actually part of the game economy since you won't have high level orbs flowing out of your ears. (so even like buying chromatics means you can run out of scrolls.)

Invasion and Corrupted boss loot buffs. Thank you GGG!

Well vaal fire ball shotgun has been fixed. No 1-shot KO everything now.

So I tried to play invasion league, this shit is insane i lost my first character right when going out of the first village, died to some insasion spiders that caught me by surprise.
I then lost my second character at level 6, again being greedy... I hope my third one will have a longer life eventhough i already had some close calls (slained 3 invasion monster though)
|
tip for invasion: play safe and dont bumrush.
in any instance there can only be ONE invasion boss. once you killed it you can proceed to bumrush as usual.

I've fought 2 different bosses in one instance before. (I'm not talking about the monkeys, nor the normal unique boss of the area)

Then you found either the map boss or a random rogue exile. Best thing that can happen is when the map boss, the invader and the rogue exile spawn in the same location. Had that twice but luckily not the hardest invader/exiles.

No, it was two different Invaders. My friend and I also thought we could only fight one Invader but we fought two in two separate areas of the instance.
I believe it was in Fellshrine, but this was a few days ago so I don't remember exactly where.

could just be a one-off error, never seen two invader bosses in one instance ever (been playing over a week) and this is the first i heard of. i think u mistook a rogue exile probably.

Same here.
btw. keep caution with the new evocata apocalyptica (the black guard mage one) she now has a vaal fireball spell totem with insane cast speed. Almost wrecked me at 77 % fire res and 4 k life because I thought it would be similar to the goatmens totem.

I did not mistake a rouge exile. I'm not ignorant with details like that, nor would I lie to you guys about that.

then you should have taken note of details and bugreport it :>
but then again like you said it was a "few days ago" so a patch might have already fixed it.

Was it two monkeys by any chance?
