Re: Soul of Arakkali's enhanced effect 'Increased [] recovery if you've stopped taking damage over time recently'

I have RF. I pop a Ruby flask and this gets me past 100% max fire res and the damage I take from RF is reduced to 0/sec. Does this count as 'stopped taking damage' in regards to the Major Soul effect?

Hi,

one quick question: the global dmg from the Heuo of all %increase is not supposed to increase ailment damage like bleed or poison? Thanks!

Simple question. What is the base radius of Magma Orb?

Scion's Occultist ascendancy:

"Enemies you Curse have -15% to Chaos Resistance"

Is this classified as part of the curse? Is it affected by Curse Effectiveness? Like how Aura Effectiveness boosts the Attack/Cast Speed part of the Necromancer's Commander of Darkness?

Hi.

Multistrike - "supports melee attack skills...cannot support vaal, totem, channelling or triggered." Note the absence of "cannot support movement".

Leap Slam / Shield Charge - "Attack, AoE, Movement, Melee"

The fact that the former does not work on the latter makes no sense at all.

Why doesn't it work?

A.

It used to support Leap Slam, and still does support Flicker Strike, I believe. However, it was removed at some point, pretty much to keep the skill a ground-targeted effect rather than auto-lock and kill. It's a unique lack of interaction between the two, like Multistrike and Ice Crash.

Are all bosses able to be maimed? If so do they have a reduction to maim or debuffs in general similar to curses?

Bump,

would like to know if debuffs from items/skills (Maim/Intimidate/Ash)
are reduced in any way.

I think I may have misunderstood the new poison mechanics. Can somebody tell me why in my tooltip it states I'm doing poison damage if I take off all armor and jewelry? I do not have any nodes with "chance to poison" in them.

If I have nodes with "increased damage with ailments" in them, do they automatically have a chance to inflict bleed/poison? Man I'm grasping at straws here. Ha. I know there's probably an easy answer but I can't make heads or tails of it. I have reread the patch notes and nowhere can I find changes on how to INFLICT bleed or poison. Just multiplier and damage calculation.

hi.
i would like to know some things to try making my own build :)

1.
Since discharge has Fire, Cold and Lightning tags, a weapon mod "+2 level of socketed fire gems" applies to it and it works as a n+2 gem even if u consume only power charges for pure lightning damage.
Is it right?

2.
Lets say u have Herald of ice activated and rest of your gems and gears have no cold damage or freeze-related components.
When u do a critical hit on an enemy, does "Adds x Cold Damage" part of HoI cause freeze on him?
and if it does, killing an enemy with single crit hit makes him shatter or he just dies before freeze occurs?
