[outdated] Caustic Arrow Solo Map MFer (20/300+)

Yeah, I should have noted that I'm using IR currently, so the armor is actually pretty nice.

Serleth, did you see that the % Inc. Evasion Rating and Armour stacking is broken with IR (as in, it double-dips)? Does this change anything in gearing / passives?

It shouldn't double dip. What should be happening is that your evasion rating flat is modified by eva %, then converted to IR, without the dex bonus.

I'd have to investigate further but no it doesn't change anything. The build isn't intended to invest in defense.

Right, but see here: https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/3xz4nu/psa_iron_reflexes_actually_double_dips_increased/

I realize that's how it's supposed to work, but it seems to be double-dipping at present.

Interesting.

Anyway, they'll fix that, it's not intended. So don't plan around it.

Any reason to go to "Growth and Decay" in the 2.1 skill tree rather than "Method to the Madness"? They have the same skill point investments, but MtoM is slightly better damage than GaD, including the initial hit, and has a bit of +chaos res. Is it the nearby jewel node for the GaD path (and the somewhat useful +int nodes)?

Exactly.

For those pursuing the Talisman challenges, there's some interesting discussion/speculation here about the divination cards that will shortly be introduced into the game, including the new 10-set Prosperity Card.

It looks like the divination card-set challenge just became easier - though how much easier is anyone's guess at this point.

This really has nothing to do with MFing, but



Fuck yeah.

Grats!

That'll put you a bit closer to getting your 6-link assuming you haven't gotten one yet.

Thanks!

Nope, don't have it yet.

Undecided how I want to go about spending the 2ex once it sells. Could push for the 6L (fuses? buy a white, craft it? Really indecisive this league after getting burned 3800 fuses in Warbands).

I also got a Catalyst while farming sets today so I'm thinking of investing in a Carcass Jack (which I'd use anyway for the CA build) and roll it into an RF totemer.

Decisions, decisions.
