Mechanical Questions Thread

I have a newbie question regarding scrolls of wisdom. I've typically been vendoring everything I don't need without using scrolls of wisdom, including rares.

I know the vendor will give different currency depending on whether the item is identified or not, but I'll run out of scorlls rather quick if I identify everything.

My question: What should you identify and keep unidentified when it comes to vendoring items? What's the best strategy for maximizing good currency (I know scrolls in themselves are currency as well). Should I be frugal, or should I identify as much as I can?

You can ID everything if you want, when you run out of wisdoms you can sell transmute orbs which you don't really need many of, and also extra armorer/blacksmith scraps.

You will see players picking up only some rares in endgame, though, even if you roll a good rare it won't be very valuable if it isn't on a good base item. Some item classes, like quivers, generally aren't worth picking up because very few people use rare ones.

Hello, I am trying to find out how bleeds from multiple sources interact, especially with the new Crimson Dance node.

If I have Crimson Dance and I bleed a mob, I understand how the node changes the mechanics for me.

What happens if I am grouped with a friend who Also has bleed, but does not take Crimson Dance. His one single instance of bleed will likely be higher than my individual Crimson Dance stacks..so does he bump me off the bleed and all my 8 stacks don't count, or vice versa or neither? Just can't figure how these interact.

Also, I tried searching but I can't figure out how to search only this thread so I apologize if I'm asking an old question.

Thanks for any input.

How is shock being reapplied?
Say I shock an enemy and the debuff timer is ticking down. Now I shock again, but with a weaker hit, such that the debuff is weaker but at full duration... Will the stronger (first) debuff has it's timer reset to full duration, will the new "worse" shock be completely ignored or will the new "worse" shock completely replace the old "strong but short" one?

Can we please have an answer on how/if Dark Pact scales with the life spent to cast it, and why there is zero mention of this is the tooltip??

Hello I have a question about the Ruthless gem and its interactions with other gems. The green txt for the gem states that every third usage of an active skill procs ruthless blows, but the other txts states that every thirds attack procs ruthless blows. So my question is which is it. For instance if i use Blade Flurry does ever third usage of the skill proc ruthless blows on all of the channeling of that skill? If i am using cyclone does every third use proc ruthless for its entire duration? Or does every third attack proc it ( in Bladeflurry case would that be each instance of the channel stack?)
