Chaos Inoculation Not Making You Immune to chaos damage Bug
|
Same build
MOM + Eldritch Battery + CI. Takes hits for 700 mana per spit from cobras and neddle crabs. |

Same issue,
Running CI, Eldritch Battery and MoM. Only seem to be my ES that takes damage from chaos. Eternal Knights remove my ES instantly and i stay at 1 hp instead of dying |
|
|
Only running CI and the snakes and/or crabs wreak me coming around a corner like I was delivering a singing telegram.
"Hello my dar- *dead*" |
|

I'm running Chaos Inoculation on it's own and the snake spitters chunk me down incredibly fast. Shouldn't they be doing zero damage? I'm not running Mind over Matter or Eldritch battery, and no uniques equipped. I have 5k Energy Shield.

I continue to have this issue and just wasted another juiced up waystone by getting one shot by a fat dude that barfed poison all over me. Decided to do some testing and theorizing and this is what I've come up with. Currently, when chaos damage is dealt from HITS, the "immunity" granted from Chaos Innoculation or an Antidote charm only protects your LIFE pool. Immunity does NOT prevent chaos/poison damage to your ES or mana pool. Anything that "hits" with chaos/poison will still rip through your energy shield, and if you have Mind over Matter, it will rip through your Mana pool as well once your ES is gone. Then all that's left is the 1 speck of life you have, which is wiped by the physical dmg from the hit (barfing dude, spraying beetle, spitting snake, etc.) If you thought, like me, that Chaos Innoculation or an Antidote Charm would keep you from dying to poison, nope! Not even close.
The question is whether this is intentional or a bug. But currently CI + MoM together are useless against poison hits. It would be fantastic is MoM meant "your mana pool IS your life" (and therefore immune to chaos dmg with CI.) Unfortunately MoM, as stated in the passive tree, only means "All damage is taken from mana before life." So what do we do? Removing MoM just makes it worse (no giant mana pool to protect you). Removing Eldritch battery make is worse (more ES/less mana doesn't help against chaos hits.) Long story short, CI only helps against NON-HIT chaos damage. |

Do you have the same display? It shows up when I activate CI:
Life: 1/3191 Shield: 3191/3191 without CI: Life: 1337/1337 Shield: 3191/3191 My brother testet activating CI and it shows up as intendet: Life: 1/1. I created 2 other Character and activate CI and it the same as my main Character. But all the build outside there for Sourcerer are with CI / MoM / EB.. so where does the bug for some players come from?? |

That's odd. With CI my life showed 1/1. Is there a passive node that makes Max Life equal to Max Energy Shield?

" No theres not, and I am using a build from a guide, and have no special uniques. At first it works for me,and than I started the Trial with Honor. And were dead without losing Honor against the little bit of a poison spit. After that the bug appeared. And with 2 new fresh Charakters, leveling straight to CI happens the same, wirhout entering a Trial or using any Uniques or passive nodes.. That sucks alot, because, I dont have Chaos resistence and the only thing that can hurt me is the damn chaos and this wreck me very hard.. |
