How does the crit chance on this thing work?

You gain Crit Chance based on your effective Lightning Resistance. If you have 75% Resists after the Resist cap, it grants +75% Increased Crit Chance.

If it doesn't work in Path of Building, this is not the thread to report that :P

As far as I know, it has the same restrictions as Chance orb.
Wish the armchair developers would go back to developing armchairs.

Thanks i was thinking same, but wasn't sure about it.
On POE Trade I am seeing rare helmets with up to 132 to maximum life. But when I look at the wiki, the highest maximum life modifier is Fecund which gives 90-99 maximum life.

How do these helms do it? Or is it a scam of some sorts? I'm new to this.

My very auld brain has a question on minefield, and it's interaction with bomb specialist and saboteur. What i'm seeing happen may be perfectly normal, but my brain isn't understanding it.

I use a simple fire nova mine build (Kiko's) and am enjoying it, however:

The basic gist is, if you can drop 5 mines to start with... then add a minefield support (supported skills can have up to 2 additional remote mines placed at a time).... then add saboteur (can have up to 1 additional remote mine placed at a time)... then add bomb specialist (can have up to 2 additional remote mines placed at a time)....

....that's 10 mines.

Minefeild support now causes 3 mines to be placed at one "dropping"... so i assume that the cluster of three counts as three, but i still get the additional 2 as well in my total? That seems to be what's happening, because without the minefield support, i can place 8 single mines.... with the support i'm placing 4 sets (of three, but my eyes aren't good enough to make out if two of the first set vanish when i lay the 4th set).

As i said, this may be exactly how it's supposed to work, but for the life (or sanity) of me, i can't find anything telling me that's how it works.


Playing a mine build aswell. As you place sets of 3 mines you can get to 9 before your new mines override old ones. After you put 9, the next set will delete your first 2 mines, and give 3 new, for a total of 10 mines. You aren't losing out on any mines, infact you are gaining (+2), nothing to worry about. :D Have fun!

there are new affixes that add flat life and es, flat life and evasion, flat life and armor

what you are seeing is a combination of those new mods and a max life roll, most likely

I just bought one in game and it still seems weird.

Below 0 lightning resistance my crit chance is effected negatively. Going from 0-75 increases the crit chance. Once I hit around 120 lightning resistance the crit gains become super small until it stops going up at all.

I'm having trouble finding many topics on this amulet.
