>The skill started as a physical object that rotated around the caster and impacted directly with enemies, but we've shifted to having the spinning weapon being representative of a 'radar'-like line that damages all enemies, making it much more reliable and improving behaviour with Area Radius bonuses. Multiple casts will mean you'll have multiple of these 'radar' lines, meaning more hits. The skill also increases in radius as the gem is leveled, as part of an initiative to have players not need to focus as heavily on Area of Effect passives in the tree.

With Incinerate you go to an enemy and cast it.
With Blade Vortex you cast it and go to an enemy.

Being free to move while causing damage is a valid defense.

It's a shame D3 is such utter garbage. It'd be nice to have something to play between PoE breaks. Sadly the only choice is really Grim Dawn, which is passable, but I've yet to find any build I really enjoy - the new patch added some neat features though. Beyond that the only choices for modern hack and slashes are Van Helsing and Torchligh 2, which both are not very good. Then again the whole subgenre has always been pretty empty of quality titles beyond a few big names.
>>
>>123625843
Try Sacred 2 Gold. Low budget as fuck but fun as fuck. Probably my favorite ARPG after PoE
>>
>>123625843

did play torchlight 2 modded? synergies mod makes it pretty good imo, specially the endgame stuff

I had a similar problem with grim dawn, every build i tried was shit in some way. Last patch i did a totemer shaman and im surprised how well it worked. The devotion shit is looks like its buffing most builds except pet ones, at least the passive triggers work with everything it seems.
>>
>>123626382
By the time Synergies came out I had gotten bored of all the classes, and going back all the fan-made classes are either terrible or just broken as hell.

Arcanist and Shaman, the two most recent classes, are definitely the most fun in the game and synergize well with everything. Nightblade is okay but only works with a few other masteries, Soldier is bland as hell, Occulist is boring aside from one combo build, Demolitionist doesn't really work well with anything else very well.

whats worth it about synergies is pretty much the added endgame dungeons, specially the one with dragons, and the scaling balance (like making focus scale dot) that makes most fixed damage skills shit on vanilla. tho the necromancer custom class is decent in its own way, takes until level 60 or so to be fun

dunno if youve played Dungeons of Dredmor, its an arpg/roguelike mixmash that burns time nicely until Talisman

There are already multiple ways to apply curses. Manual casting, cwdt, curse on hit, certain uniques and vaaled glove implicits.

Should I even bother about hybrid flasks?
>>
>>123653108
>talisman
No.

>>123652474
Because casting a curse takes a lot of mana as well. You already took damage on cast on damage taken, + you might cast it in a poor position.

The uniques have huge drawbacks.

People are excited because GGG is planning mana changes to melee, and if you're melee it's a very easy way to have perma damage reduction around you such as enfeeble or a perma vulnerability around you (which is a much bigger damage increase than hatred).
>>
>>123653250
The reason why vulnerability is better than hatred btw is because hatred is elemental. And elemental doesn't really scale well because you can't get penetration because you will sacrifice other stuff for it.

And seriously with skills like ice crash costing so much mana there needs to be some changes made to melee mana cost. I'm not playing a caster melee after all. Mana cost never was such a problem because you used to be able to just leech it with 2% if you had like 5-10% of your mana remaining after auras.

>>123625843
>>123620689
D3 was a mess. For some reason my Q9550 and Radeon HD 6870 had frequent frame rate drops and it struggled getting adequate performance until I made numerous tweaks to make it work at 60 fps on high settings with shadows off. And it looked like crap. On the same system I could play PoE on highest setting with everything on with no drops. Well until they added that shitty chaos deg ground that somehow eats up my fps to 50 fps.

That aside the gameplay felt very straight forward. Every class only had one build and every item upgrade felt kind of the same. It didn't had any end game as well except paragon levels which was just grinding Act 3 inferno over and over. The story was also especially cheesy and a bit stupid at some points. How they killed Deckard Cain and how Zultun Kulle was handled, it seems like the cast and character you're playing are really dumb.

Not sure how that game even got players still playing it. Reaper of souls adverts over here were advertising it for 60 euro. Who would pay 60 euro for just one new act if the product was really meh in the first place?
>>
>>123653420
Depends if they made it work as regen or leech. It's not specified, but I'm guessing no.
>>
>>123655235
>>123653420

Yeah, actually they used the wording "damage dealt is recovered". So it will work kinda like flasks.

And from the wiki:
This will not cause Life Flasks to recover ES as they give life recovery.

So no, it shouldn't work.

It's not that difficult at all, especially if you're not someone who's afraid of technology (which it sounds like you aren't since you built a pc)

Honestly though, I would hold off on upgrading anything else if it's just for PoE, unless you can find an amazing deal on a 280x/290x or 980 or such.

Hey I've never played. And I've heard that if you don't have a guide to help you build your first character it'll basically be a waste of time. I went through a few links in the op but didn't really see anything like this can someone point me to the handholding sites.

Now you make it look like I asked if riposte is viable.

I use vengeance on my marauder and it is useful to get that extra damage some of the smaller mobs sometimes need to die, but I am not sure if there would be something more viable for that. I am playing a crowd control static strike+herald of ash build.

Voltaxic is a good choice for Chaos crit if you can still reach around 50%.
Otherwise, noncrit and just stack defenses, Voltaxic is still great. Especially if that one Reddit fag's spell quiver gets in.

Holy fuck, this. I'd love some 1H crossbows with damage comprable to daggers/claws allowing you to dual wield.
And either a 2H shield that gives you a Shield Bash attack that scales with armour, or dual wielding shields with the same thing, since you can't hit shit unarmed if you've got your hands full.

inb4 each blade hits once per 5 seconds
>>
>>123675276
From what I've seen, each blade will rotate about you 5 times before disappearing, which is once per second. Also, the skill itself hits as fast as Incinerate, because it's an AoE, not projectiles. The blades are just decoration.
And you can have up to 50 of those things, which is 100% possible even with max block Cybill's.
So 50 blades hitting 5 times per second for up to 16 HP per hit per monster...
If you can actively sustain 50 blades, that's 4000 HP/S per monster.
>>
>>123675674
Divide your final result by 5, you suddenly jumped from once per second per blade to 5 times per second per blade. 50 * 16 = 800 HP/sec per monster, still nice but do your math better
>>
>>123676083
Wait, Incinerate only hits once per second? What?
>>
>>123675674
>The blades are just decoration.
no they're not you retard

>we've shifted to having the spinning weapon being representative of a 'radar'-like line that damages all enemies

so assuming a blade hits one per second it's at most 800 hp/s/monster, so still rather good
>>

>Blade Vortex gem on
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1478438
>has the AoE tag, but not the projectile
>The blades aren't just decoration
Yes, they are, counter retard. The blade just spins around you on the radar-line while the line hits everything.
Also, my math might've been off. Scaling it off Incin, which I thought was 5 hits/sec.
>>
>>123676146
Was he talking about incinerate? I though he was doing a calculation for blade vortex, which is, from what I can tell a blade that spins around you right? 5 rotations during 5 seconds, one would reasonably assume the blades only hit once every rotation each, ergo once a second. Unless I'm mistaken, then sure, let's just assume they hit 5 times a sec.
>>
>>123676571
The confusion really comes from Blade Vortex isn't projectile based, so it's pulses from the radar-line the blades travel on and can't be scaled with shit like Faster Projectiles.
Either way, the LGOH is fucking impressive.
>>
>>123676453
and any projectile graphic is just a decoration for a small point which collides with monsters and damages them

don't know what you want to prove here
>>
>>123677127
>The visual is tied to a dot with the projectile tag.
Correct for anything with the projectile tag.
But Blade Vortex doesn't have the projectile tag, so the blades are exclusively cosmetic instead of tied to a projectile that deals damage.
>>
>>123677338
instead, they're tied to a radar line that deals damage
>>
>>123677459
Except the blade doesn't have to be there to deal damage. It could be on the other side of you and if the mob is touching the line, the mob gets hurt, instead of the knife having to be touching the mob to deal damage.
>>
>>123677832
So the skill is basically a stacking Cyclone.
>>
>>123678032

Except cyclone uses weapon stats, this doesn't. It's a spell.
>>
>>123677832
>It could be on the other side of you and if the mob is touching the line
do you not know how a radar looks, you massive retard?

and of course it won't have to touch a mob to damage him because it's just a rough representation, this is true for many things in this game

>>123678032
It's essentially a spell version of Cyclone, yes. Unless they change how it works before Talisman drops.
>>123678163
And? That wasn't the point of the conversation. It was about how Blade Vortex isn't a projectile and the actual projectile is just decoration.
