Content Update 3.25.0 -- Path of Exile: Settlers of Kalguur

Why on earth did Cyclone of Tumult have its mana cost tripled?

Why did profane ground just get nerfed?? 10% curse effect? are you srs

Can I use a skill like Eviscerate to apply a large bleed to a target, and then use a secondary skill like Puncture of Shanking to apply rupture stacks to the target with the Rupture Support gem to increase the damage of the initial bleed?

The Rupture Support gem seems to suggest this would not work and that Eviscerate (in this example) would need to be directly supported by Rupture Support and crit to have rupture apply to it's bleed. But this doesn't make since if Rupture stacks up to three (or more) times.

Autoexertion has "Supported Warcries do not grant Buffs or Charges to you or Allies"

So if Rallying cry links with Autoexertion

Do we still have "Exerted Attacks deal 5% more Damage per affected Ally" since Rallying(with Autoexertion) can't grant buff to allies?

rip to some of the most iconic poe unique items

Can Divine Retribution hit the same enemy more than once?

Does impale benifit from flesh and stone?

Flesh and stone has "Aura makes Enemies take up to 20% more Physical Damage from Hits".

But impale records hit damage before the defender's mitigation,so the record dmg don't benift from flesh and stone.

Damage dealt by impale is a separate reflected hit.As reflected damage, this hit cannot stun or apply on-hit or when-hit effects.

So again does impale benifit from flesh and stone?

If manager lord choose this question to answer, pls explain "intimidated" too.

Why did you completely destroy builds through Ward? This build has already suffered over the last 5 leagues, only nerfs, and now they have also destroyed the bottle of Olroth's Resolve. I'm upset, my favorite build was destroyed((

Just wait until PoE2 arrival; by that time everything here will be literally eviscerated to HELP you make THE ONLY RIGHT decision to forget about PoE1 and move on to PoE2.

I'd suggest you to raise educative questions outside of this thread as this is thread is more about our impressions of the patch notes and new techs, not such that have a solid foundation already across the community.

As we're at it:

Any physical defense detrimental effect applies on Impale's dmg input. Impale can be considered as a % more physical dmg multiplier depending on the number of impales you inflict and the impale effect you have. The damage is calculated separately as a hit and works together with Pride/Flesh and Stone, Curses/Marks; Crushed/Intimidated and whatever else you'd think of that is relevant for the gem tags you're working with.

If you're looking for "overtuned" skills to play with, I'd suggest you to check again the recent nerf of Double strike of Impaling. Just today GGG nerfed it's "new" dmg by 30% or so if you check the 24.7 patch notes and I am suspecting this to happen for Lacerate of Haemorrhage and Perforate of Bloodshed as their numbers are also bonkers on paper and seem to be the outliers.
