[Buildbreaking] Spectral Throw Disappears After ~70% Projectile Speed
|
After a certain amount of increased Projectile Speed - in my case, 80% from the tree and the Karui Ward Jade Amulet, Spectral Throws stop returning. (This is buildbreaking as it effectively halves the number of hits I get on any given mob.)

Projectiles have a maximum distance they can travel. You've exceeded that distance.

"Shouldn't they just return from max range instead of disappearing in the void? And worst change is putting almost all bosses in new version of maps into fucking small areas, where you can't kite well or dodge stuff. What a terrible idiot invented that I want say to him: dude flick you, seriously flick you very much.

No, they exceeded the max range from which they can come back.

Let me put it in other words: why are they even allowed to exceed that range?

Because PoE has always been A-Okay with allowing bad choices.

Wait what?
" This is the spectral throw text. Including a maximum range, after which projectiles don't return seems extremly arbitrary and like very bad design to me. If it was intended, include it in the skill description. Definitely would call it a bug. | |

If they added every little odd and end into the description for every skill, it would take up your whole screen. Why not add minimum ranges then as well. Why not add maximum ranges for melee skills. Why not add x,y, and z then.
Not a bug. "Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots. So far, the Universe is winning."

Well the point is why does it make sense for Spectral Throw to have a maximum range.
E.g. for a melee skill to have maximum range is consistent with most persons expectations. For a boomerang like skill this is not the case (especially since the projectile vanishes instead of returning early.) | |
