Hello, I'm a fairly new player to POE, I only started playing about 2 weeks. I started with the marauder class and picked the berserker ascendancy because I thought I would enjoy the play-style, and I do. However, I have a few questions I could not find answers for on forums and whatnot, so would appreciate if some of the experienced players clear them up for me.

1- Regarding the crave of slaughter and rite of ruin on the ascendancy tree, you start by obtaining crave of slaughter which at 50 rage, grants 50% attack damage, 25% attack speed , 10% movement speed and 5% max hp lost per second. And then rite of ruin doubles everything to give a 100% AD, 50% AS, 20% mov speed and 10% life lost per sec. However, I did not notice the damage or attack speed increase at all in the dps of my abilities. As an example, I use sunder , with only crave the slaughter at 50 rage, i had 140k dps displayed on the ability tool-tip, that number stays exactly the same after I just obtained and allocated rite of ruin yesterday but I do notice the increase in hp lost ONLY. So I was wondering if maybe there is a bug in the displayed dps number or perhaps I need to activate something or some special condition to display the supposedly increased damage.

2- Cast when damage taken. I use it in a 4 socket combo (all at level 56) with CWDT-Immortal call-Vulnerability-X. X = Either warlords mark or Punishment both at level 56 as well. However, neither of them seem to ever proc, so I looked it up and didn't find any mention that 2 curses can not be activated simultaneously using CWDT, so I tried changing their order around a bit, still didn't work. I tried other green gem skills and they worked just fine but none of them were curses. So does CWDT only support 1 curse gem maximum at a time? And if not , what am I missing to get the combo to work?

1- many effects aren't properly displayed in the tooltip. You can test out the difference between 50 rage and 0 rage on a skill like Leap Slam without being linked to Faster Attacks. It should feel considerably faster with rage.

2- can you make your character profile public, so it's possible to take a look at the actual setup? Putting aside that you need to increase the curse limit somehow to actually apply two curses, the visual effects should occur.

The two reasons I can imagine without more information on why they wouldn't is if there's a modifier to gem levels that makes it so that the requirement of the effective gem level is no longer supportable by CwDT, even if the requirements of the gem are the same, or that you don't actually take the damage you need to proc CwDT. Only hits are counted, degeneration is not.

Please open an individual topic for this (or use google), and keep this thread purely to asking and answering mechanical questions.

Regardless, the CWDT issue, the socket combo is in the helmet, please check it out and comment if anything there maybe hindering its activation that i did not notice.

We cannot see it due to your privacy settings.

You can set your characters tab public here.

hi

About trading when i should find item in my stash.....

When get request about selling an item - i begin to type the name of the item in search field and some time the name is too difficult and just one-letter-mistake will not allow me to find the item
May be there is a macro which highlights the item in stash folder?
Thanks
