Calling all RF people ! Need Help
http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1068509/page/13
Friend is using this build right now, and for whatever reason when he turns on RF he degens health instead of regen'ing health. And at a fair rate as well. Why is it that the build itself causes RNG? I don't get how or why my friend should have to go out of his way to fix a build that works for other people. Any ideas? | |
Need to know a few things before the question can be answered:
1) Max Life 2) Max Energy Shield 3) % health regen from tree 4) Is the +1% max fire resist taken? 5) level of Purity of Fire 6) % increased effect of auras from tree 7) % increased effect of buffs from tree 8) Is there a +1% max resistances corrupt on an item? Or you can check yourself: Here's a RF burn calculator I made that might help with tweaking regen to meet the minimum requirement. Last edited by bullgaria on Oct 8, 2014, 5:17:08 PM

What level is his purity of fire? Got to have high enough level purity and the shield or else you can't beat the drain.

" 3999 HP Eld Battery 11.3% Regen in tree Have barbarism 18 Purity of Fire No inner force or Athleticism, so Zero. No corrupt items. Edit** Clearly he has RotPhoenix on. Same EXACT build as the other person who said basically that "some people degen and some people regen" The build works for some and not for others somehow.

3% from Purity, 1% from Barb, 8% from RoTP = 75+3+1+8 = 87% Resists
90% Max Life burned per second, 87% negated by Resists: 90 * 0.13 = 11.7% Max Life per second. 11.3% Regen < 11.7% Degen. There's a perfectly fine reason that it doesn't work for everyone - you need either more Regen (flat or percent), or a smidge of extra Regen. | |
" So why the hell does it work for some people to have 11.3% then. Explain that. Edit** I still need a fix for it. Last edited by Awfeel on Oct 8, 2014, 4:51:43 PM

A level 20 Purity gets you an additional 1% Max Res. 90 * 0.12 = 10.8% Degen. Simple as that.
Flat Regen from gear can also cover the rest, but is a bit unconventional. There is nothing to fix, because nothing is broken. Last edited by Vipermagi on Oct 8, 2014, 4:55:20 PM

" Inner Force will counteract the 1% max resist he doesn't already have. As noted in the guide. Obviously it is broken because at level 65 SOME people REGEN and SOME people DEGEN. In what world is rounding causing RNG for accessibility to build not broken? | |
Yeah, guess why I didn't suggest Inner Force at any point. :/
It's not broken. If you don't have sufficient flat regen from gear, you will slowly burn to death. SOME people have different GEAR than SOME other people, granting either +GEM LEVELS or FLAT REGEN (with RoTP you only need another 10 @ 4k Life). Iunno, maybe CAPS are just inherently more understandable to you. Last edited by Vipermagi on Oct 8, 2014, 5:00:01 PM
