Developer Q&A - Answers Part 4

Haven't seen this addressed anywhere yet (and I missed the original thread), so maybe someone knows the answer...
Is there any hope of being able to maintain Whisper chat across character selection, so that we don't have to friend the person to just remember who they are when they ask for a trade? Or to remember what it was they wanted in the first place? | |

cheers :)
" This rly didnt help at all. Go take a look at my hours played in this game, I can tell you since you introduced this mechanic I have noticed 0 difference in the daggers, wands, sceptres and staves I have found, theyre still mostly a mess of spell and attack mods together. Are you entirely sure you actually activated this change? You guys didnt type it all out in the code then forget to press save? Its rly in there? Because it made 0 difference to what I observe. Rare staves dont even exist, I spent about 3 and half years looting every one of them, over 10k hours played looting staves and didnt find a single physical attack staff or spell caster staff I would even consider usbale. No one in my guild Ive talked to about it has ever found a usable rare staff. Ive stopped picking them up now, theres no point, if I didnt find a single one in 3 and half YEARS then youive essentially fucked them up, whatever is in your code for rare staves is broken if you are under the impression people are supposed to pick up these items and then use them. I loot virtually every dagger, sceptre and wand tho to this day, and the vast majority just seem to be a clusterfuck of spell and attack mods mashed together that dont make any sense same way they always were. If you guys didnt tell us you made this change I wouldnt for 1 second suspect it was in the game. You did tell us and its not like oh ya, now u mention it ya that could explain... no, were still here waiting for you to find out that you forgot to add it in and then that would explain everything that we have observed. |

" its not a fix, but if you highlight their name in the chat window and press ctrl+c you can then switch characters and ctrl+v paste their name back into chat rather than friend them. Make sit a little easier. Would be better if we could just scroll up and see all the chat we made before we switched chars tho. |

" omg. I am teh dum. yes, that WOULD make things a bit easier instead of my writing everything down on a piece of paper. Thanks for nothing, college education :P | |

I was more interested seeing why double dips werent taken out once it was obvious they were ridiculous.
I mean, you guys did take them out explicitly from mines and traps. Was it the fear for players rioting with pitchforks for gutting their poison/ignite builds ? | |

QUESTION: Is Dominating blow being addressed in 3.0? if so, Is it a buff, nerf, rework... removal?
Spoiler
Why?
" From 20%more( level 20) to -35%(all levels) thats somewhere like 50%less damage nerf! and not only that, it removed a part of the incentive to level them gem not having the damage scale per lvl. And having its mechanic denied to endgame bosses and recent contents: - Atziri - shaper - Izaro All fights with non-Dominatable adds monsters or they die once add-phase is over. Also, league monsters cannot be Dom Blow: - Breach - Beyond   What if, instead of converting Monsters into minions, Dominating blow was Converting monsters of each kind into 1 Model, 1 representative and that monster feeds from the monsters you dominate. Lets call that monster/minion, a Prime.  " ________________________________________________________________________________________________ So lets say we have the Prime that does 1-10 damage and has 200 hp:
Then this Prime now has stats that goes like: Damage: 12-38 base life: 800hp (600*1.3) mods: Extra life (previously added) and Resistance aura ______________________________________________________________________________________________  And you can have 1 Prime of each type of monsters! 1 Roah, 1 prime titty bitch,1 devourer, etc Duration: The first monster you convert creates the Prime, the monsters you convert afterward are added to it. The Prime timer is frozen as long as there is another monster buffing him. Each added monster have their own individual timer that when expires make the Prime shrinks (obviously). " " The more absorbed monster(buffs) it has, the bigger it gets. This would just take the Souleater+Headhunter feeling we have with Dom blow and take it to its final and perfect form, a complete and polished skill. ___________________________________________________________________________________________  Microtransation opportunity: Using Invasion boss models as hosts for the Prime would be pretty cool and good recycling  Bonus: - this could fix Bloodline issues - Increased monster diversity could be way more interesting with such skill mechanic. - the lag Dominating blow generates  _______________________________________________________________________________________ 3.0 is COming: Fall of Oriath  Aint it the perfect timing?     this was on 2.3 no buff on 2.4 no buff on 2.5 no buff on 2.6 If we look at other Duration summoning skills enchants we got : " & " & " and then we got Dominating blow - Dom blow player damage (24% & 34%) - Dom blow Minion duration - Dom Blow minion damage (20% & 30%) 1) Where are the Additional monster mods? or even Dominated monster has a chance to become 1 rarity higher 2)All other minion skills get 40% increased damage (minion) while dom blow gets 30% + having a 35% less damage on the gem 3) why are the damage mods 2 separate enchants? it only makes the skill weaker by watering down its power sources. Being a single mod would be way better, still shit but better. 4) The Enchant that buffs Player Dom blow damage is 24-36%, even the melee part of Dom Blow gets weaker enchants than other melee skill http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/List_of_helmet_enchantment_mods ZiggyD is the Labyrinth of streamers, some like it, some dont, but GGG will make sure to push it down ur throat to make you like it

When are we going to get new items for the hideout? It's been pretty stale for awhile now. Also, the past idea of being able to save a copy of a previous hideout would be amazing. Is that something that would be possible?

... I'd have been so happy if there was a unique Domination leaguestone that specifically spawned darkshrines instead of normal ones.
