Will it be when they have driven the majority of the players away from the game and GGG no longer has enough incoming funds to continue supporting the game? Some people may have found CoC builds extremely powerful but I cant recall any videos of them doing the hardest endgame maps. So is a build to powerful even when it cant complete the game? The majority of people made a CoC build that was workable. Pretty good aoe (certainly no better than some other builds, discharge for example) but also had a lot of drawbacks. One such drawback being to get good survivability and insane damage was only for the mega rich. Mine is one of the builds that seems to now be too weak. I am still only in act2 merciless with it. Do I reroll ? No because my confidence in GGG is such that now i think rerolling or making new builds (which once was fun) is now pointless. I neither have the funds or the inclination to lvl another build whilst all the time living in fear of more nerfs. Will I quit? NO I still like the game. Will I give GGG anymore money? NO they already got $220 of my cash but this source of income for them has now stopped. Am I the only one in this situation? Highly unlikely. I did a map with a double strike discharger that facetanked multi projectile Residence Dominus without dieing. He is lvl92 now.

I really like this Support. It's great fun, no questions asked. On my current build, with just ~20% chance to crit, it's not terribly OP, either. But I can see how it will be, with a bit more investment in passives and a weapon with more than 5% crit chance. I wonder if the gem should maybe come with ~15% less crit multiplier? Crits already give you a massive spell rain, makes sense it's a bit weaker.

How do you think this will interact with the new Summon raging spirit...does the spell/summon obtain your characters crit chance/crit damage to calculate its damage? I would say yes, right. „I don't give a fuck if it was his tenth anniversary with his goddamn neckbeard...“ „If they think I'm going to let them sweep this pizza guy thing under the rug...“ No mod action. Business as usual.	Posted by Odoakar on Jan 28, 2014, 12:28:19 PM Quote this Post

Considering it's a Minion and Minions always have their own stats... I'm also not entirely sure how Cast on Crit is relevant.	Posted by Vipermagi on Jan 28, 2014, 2:33:33 PM Valued Poster Quote this Post
I hate the existence of this gem out of jealousy. why is it that if I build a high crit caster for damage, a crit-based physical melee character can just slap on this gem and instantly he becomes a better caster than I am? I don't want them to nerf it, but why the hell are all the good support gems given to physical damage type characters? Why does this gem have to be exclusive to physical attacks? Why do melee physical characters get multistrike? Why don't casters even get something like multi-cast, where we don't spam a skill three times, but rather be able to cast 2 or more different spells per 1 cast?

I think there was something in the files somewhere for extra casts based on power charges? Might have been a prank by one of the character editors out there that help you plan builds with equip. Rarely use them. But hey, in the past melee always complained being completely useless and an FP caster would be way better at any range. I suppose it's just how things swing. And yeah, this gem could use a tiny nerf. It IS powerful. Just not unbearably so, and it's insanly fun.

I have decent gear (maligaros, rat's nest), and since i use elemental spells im suffering the same drawback as spell casters: mob resistance. It is not as OP as you think. Sure, non resists die very quickly, but as soon as you meet a fire-resist rare it grinds to a halt. And im fine by that tbh. If there would be a nerf to this gem (requiring you to use two spells for example) it would make it completely unviable for me, since i NEED one slot for AOE Spoiler Except when using cyclone. The traumatising horror that is this skill gem QQ. Spoiler Ethereal knifes are luckily not suffering this drawback, but tbh i think its pretty balanced as is, becuase of the shorter range and lack of shotgun-effect The Hyperbomber for 2.6: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1879383	Posted by Saltygames on Jan 31, 2014, 4:31:29 AM Quote this Post
My question is this. Can you cast the same spell linked to your cast on crit? What I mean is something like this. Freezing Pulse - GMP - CoC - Freezing Pulse I was wondering if since you have another gem of Freezing Pulse that the CoC wouldn't turn off your ability to cast it. Would love to know.
