I have a doubt on how the new charged dash works based on Mark_GGG's comment here https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/8mvmow/could_i_theoretically_draw_circles_with_charged/dzqwbk4/ . I have a paint file attached with a rough situation where you draw a ribbon like loop around the target.
In his second paragraph, "The same enemy can by hit by different waves, regardless of whether they're the while-channelling waves or the final wave", the different waves here refer to the waves generated by each stage of channeling charged dash or is it something else that I am missing here?. The red circles indicate the pulses produced by charged dash. The numbers indicate the different stages of charged dash. Assume path length is at its maximum(the mirage has come to a stop) and that for this channel, the number of stages is 5. So the question here is, would circles 2,3 do 2 instances of damage to shap-er ? Here's the paint mockup  Last edited by dtymnn#6318 on Jul 23, 2018, 10:32:55 AM

"This isn't really accurate terminology. What spark does is that every 1000 milliseconds, the set of spark projectiles from that firing lose their memory of which things they've hit. This means anything which had previously been hit by one of those sparks can now be hit by one of those sparks again. Previously this happened when one of them bouned and hadn't happened within the past 1000ms, but that's no longer the case (and would not have any effect since it now does it every 1000ms regardless of bouncing). "Yes. "increased" and "reduced" modifiers to the same value stack additively. But modifiers to Damage and modifiers to Damage Taken are not applying to the same value, and thus cannot possibly stack addively. Modifiers to Damage are all calcualted by the attacker to get their total damage value of each type. That total Damage value is then affected by all the defender's damage mitigation, such as resistances (as well as more complicated mitigation stats). The result of that calculation is the Damage taken, and that's what Modifiers to Damage taken apply to. Shock is an effect on the enemy which modifies their damage taken, so the only things it can stack additively are other modifiers which are affecting the damage taken by that enemy, such as the Bear Trap debuff. "Yes "Yes "Neither of those apply to minions. "The only passives which affect minions are passives which explicitly say they affect minions (or those that apply aura-style effects to nearby allies, since your minions are inherently your allies). "1. You avoid the fire damage, not the physical damage. "Reflected damage cannot apply on-hit effects, including leech. "The wiki, while a useful resource, is created by users and is not always correct. Currently it agrees with your values, so it seems likely the information there at the time of your post was incorrect. Nowdays, if you enable the advanced mod display, you can see the ranges of any mods on your items by holding Alt (or whatever you rebound the item highlight key to). | |

HI all
On Incursion league, the level of temple can interfere the drops of rooms? Like rooms that Contains a valuable item? And can interfere Altar of corruption? Increasing the chance of items to not destroy? Altar of Sacrifice too? |

Hello,
I encountered the problem that the "Cassette Traps Support" skill stone does not work in conjunction with the "Trap Support" and the "Frost Bomb". To check that it does not work with the "Frost Bomb", I put instead the "Glacial Cascade" and saw that the "Cassette Traps Support" are working correctly. That's the way it should be, or it's a game error? |

Hey
Mark, I have recently started playing your game and have come across a glitch that could easily be overlooked by an unanal player. When I place certain quality flasks for sale that add up to 80,120, etc. The vendor only gives 1,2,3,etc. I have a video to explain. I did wonder if it was due to not IDing the flasks, but the second clip eliminates that possibility. From further experiment I think I have worked out the issue. The flask that reaches the threshold of 40,80,120, etc. does not add onto the next bauble quality. e.g. I place a 3 17 quality flasks in the vendor and I get 1 bauble, I then place 2 more 15's I only get 1 bauble and fragments/transmutes. The extra 11 from the first Bauble does not add onto the next, instead the 11 gets wiped and it begins from 0 again with the 15's. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=khUYbk6pK60 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u3x7px6uArQ Cheers. |

Does Deadeye's Rupture ascendancy node only work with attacks?
eg. if I'm playing cyclone CoC, applying bleed with the physical whack, will something like Firestorm gimme LoH? It says "gain on hit", and spells hit. LGOH support specifies attacks in particular so I'm a bit confused, as other "on hit" things are sometimes "attack-only-hits", but I don't know why it's not specific. In the same vein, is Ascendant's gladiator node attack-only hits for the "10% chance to blind on hit vs bleeding enemies", or are spells okay too?

Got a few questions about traps:
1) What is the "arming time" for a trap, exactly? 2) When does a trap's duration start? a: When I press the button to use the skill b: When it leaves the PC's hand c: When it touches the ground d: When it starts Arming e: When it finishes Arming 3) When a trap has a chance to rearm after being triggered, does it only use the normal arming time or are there other delays involved? In other words, how long exactly after the trap triggers the first time can it trigger a second time. Last edited by Drazn#7331 on Jul 31, 2018, 8:25:45 PM
