Mechanical Questions Thread

Hey guys, so I got a question about the Atlas and things like Google and Reddit apparently dont have a clear answer and Id like a definitive answer from a dev about it so there you go. This is the thread about it: https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/71bnji/how_do_i_setup_my_atlas_for_vault_maps/

Imagine that Im farming a Vault map, Vault is the only T12 completed and I dont have any T13 nor T14 completed in the Atlas, people are saying that if for example I would were to get assigned a T14 drop it would be ALWAYS downgraded to Gorge because its the one connected to it, and therefore it would be better to complete the T13s.

As I said in Reddit there are always 3 rules when a map drops:

You get a map that you have completed. Because of this if you have no T13 nor T14 then it keeps downgrading until it reaches T12 and you get a Vault map. If this is the case then im right.
You get a connected map, in this case Gorge for example.
You get a T1.


I hope that you can help me, thanks.

I read that flesh offering works with cast when damage taken, but I'm not getting a letter on the flesh offering Icon. Do these two spells work together? or does cast when damage taken only work on targetless spells?

A common mistake when using Cast when Damage Taken Support is not reading the line that says "This Gem can only Support Skill Gems requiring Level (38-70) or lower."

Occasionally, people also see a link where there isn't one (Lightning Coil is an Armour that causes this to happen from time to time).

I have a dual corsair cycloner. I can't get riposte to set off endurance charge on melee stun. I have 18% block and high crit .What's the problem?

Hello,
After the latest changes regarding the Boss Ailments immunities, I would like to use "Hypothermia" Support Gem against the bosses too.

Would the extra damage work?
Can now all bosses be chilled included Shaper and Uber Atziri?
Is there any boss immune to chill?
Any hit that does cold damage chill?
The Damage Toltip only affects the magnitude of the slow and not the chill duration?

Sry for that many questions XD

Hey there!

I would like to ask about explosive arrow.

There was a change - weapon elemental damage changed to elemental damage with attacks.
Passives like Lava Lash will affect the explosion of explosive arrow?
And I saw the weapon elemental damage changed too for elemental damage with attacks skills, so the gem itself will affect zhe exploaion?

Thanks for reply

Hi there!,

Could you please explain the mechanics of the unique jewel Sudden Ignition?
("Burning arrow can inflict an additional ignite on an enemy")

I'm Currently working on an elementalist build using burning (/view-thread/2005151)

here goes:
- scenario 1: 2 monsters standing close together both get hit by the same burning arrow volley. Does proliferation (Beacon of Ruin) add a second ignite to both targets? or do the targets need to get hit a second time, directly, by burning arrow before the second ignite is applied by Sudden Ignition?

- scenario 2: one monster is affected by the burn from herald of ash. When hit by burning arrow, does sudden ignition apply the burning arrow ignite as a second ignite? or do the normal rules for multiple ignites apply?

- scenario 3: Can two herald of ash burns applied by burning arrow kills be both in effect by the jewel Sudden Ignition?

Thx in advance!


p.s. any other extra info you would like to share about this jewel is more then welcome!

Does Pack size on a map effect the quantity of mobs in a breach? Or does the breach have it's on roll when you pop it and ignores the pack size on the map? Thanks

Is the RNG affect by the quantity of fusings that I use in sequence?

For example, if I use 300 fusings at once, its different that if I use 100 per hour in the next three hours?
