Anyone know how I can get 4 green sockets on triad's grip?

I already have 4 unlincked sockets. None of them are green.

Hi, I'd like to know if the medium cluster notables for curses "Master of fear" and "Wish for Death" works with miner playstyle.The Notables are:



-- Master of fear:
Enemies YOU curse are intimidated
Enemies YOU curse are unnerved

-- Wish for Death:
YOU have culling strike against cursed enemies
Curse skills have 20% increased skill effect duration

I already tested and the "Wish for death" works (makes sense), but my question Is: Does the Master of fear works, knowing that my curse is elemental weakness on a double corrupted gloves? (not a self cast curse, it is applied by mines with a on-hit effect). If the mines are applying the curse on hit, does it count for the "Enemies YOU curse are unnerved"?. Unlike culling strike, I can't test this.

I am doing a build with secrets of suffering this league.

I am trying to stack non-damaging ailment effect right now to boost my brittle and scorch.

However, I am not sure how to calculate my current brittle and scorch effectiveness

The formula used to calculate Shock and Chill magnitudes is now: 1/2*[Damage % of Ailment Threshold (see below) ]^0.4

was found in 3.9 Patch notes,

but

The alternate ailments Sap, Scorch and Brittle have a slightly different calculation as they have lower caps on their magnitudes.

on same patch note as well.

For Alternative ailments, it says it uses different calculation.

If you will be so kind, can you let me know the formula used for this?

Thank you very much!

Tha fastest way would be:
1) Craft "3 green sockets" on bench. If the 4th socket isn't green aswell, go to 2).
2) Craft "3 sockets" on bench.
3) Craft "4 sockets" on bench. If the 4th socket isn't green, go to 2).

I looked through map wiki, but can't find out what happenes if there is no map of specific tier currently in atlas thanks to inserted watchstones. What happens, when map of this tier drops?

If you mean you drop a T10 when all maps on the atlas are T14-16 that's easy as the lower level versions of the maps can still drop (ie, you can get Tier 1, 4, 9, and 14 Strand map if Strand is T14, and yes I'm aware I likely got the lower level #s wrong) If you mean you get a T14 in Delve, but have for some reason only socketed 2 or less watchstones in every area of the Atlas, like 90% sure it'll get deleveled to whatever your highest map currently available on the Atlas is...but haven't actually tested that as I haven't had cause to deleveled my Atlas like that.

Hey guys I have a question about curses :

I just dropped a ring with assassin mark on hit, but I already play with Herald of thunder linked with warlord mark on hit ...

Is this setup viable or I will override some curses ?

To be honest I don't really understand how curses work, i read that some curses could be played together because they didn't activated at the same time hence didn't override each other but in my case it is worth to play with warlord + assassin on hit ?

thanks

If you want to apply multiple curses per hit, you need something like "Whispers of Doom" notable in skill pasive tree or some unique that allow additional curses.

alright thanks, i was hopping for a way to play those 2 without whisper of doom

It's strange because in build guide (mine for exemple) they play with temporal chain and elemental weakness on the same cwdts link .... what is the point in this case ? (they don't use whisper of doom nor any item that extend curse number)

Browsed a little and couldn't find definite answer:

How exactly are mods rolled on items?

1. Are all prefixes/suffixes equal weight on standard rare items? How about influenced items?

2. Are roll tiers independent or grouped when it comes to rolling items? Explanation below

Let's assume there are only affixes possible on the item - +# numbers of skeletons with just one tier - (+1 skeleton) and resistances, which have 8 tiers (6-11, 12-17, all the way to 46-48).

Is it fifty/fifty to roll skeleton/some resists or is it ~11% skellies, 11% 6-11res, 11% (...) 46-48res?

Thanks in advance!
