Completely out of funds so now I actually have to theorycraft (Kitava's Thirst)

Not sure why you dont attempt to upgrade your fireballer instead.

I did upgrade my fireballer yesterday actually. I spent some time working on my tree efficiency and added in a third rolling flame at no DPS loss. Got some more mana regen too to sustain the casting. I'm at a good point now where in a real fight, my mana regens while I'm moving around.


From here on out, there isn't much I can do for DPS upgrades without spending mirrors so I'm gonna work on getting whatever extra ES I can get.

I wish I had a level 100 for this tho...7 more levels would mean 10% increase AoE and some extra damage :(


Like I said in the thread title, I'm fresh out of funds (because of the fireballer), so I'm theorycrafting something else in the mean time.

Not for fireball! The explosions can't be blocked. I'm so glad too. On magma orb, BCR was actually necessary :(

Last time I tested FB AoE was blockable. it's projectile, aoe, spell, fire.
Problem: impostor syndrome
Solution: nerf everything
Result: depressing mess
From what I have tested, the explosion is only blockable if you've blocked the fireball's initial hit.

If the fireball explodes from terrain or distance and the explosion touches you, you can't block that.


Basically if you're a block tank, your best bet is to charge at fireballs before they reach their max range if you can't move out entirely. (I shouldn't reveal secrets. I want people to bitch about fireballs at least a little bit lol)

Alright so I added yet another rolling flame and anomaly lent me a Dying Sun flask for some testing.

Friend of mine took a screenshot of my fireballs at max range.

I believe this is acceptable AoE.

70% conversion did nothing to his dps too.

The thing have monstruous damages, Its like Ea in more annoying because half the time you can t even see the projectiles or the explosion. I predict people will complain about FB pretty soon.

fireball explosion after hitting wall / terrain / exploding at distance is unblockable secondary damage?

Never underestimate what the mod community can do for PoE if you sell an offline client.
i think they are blockable. from my experence while playing vs markusz i was be able to block explosions.
