Poison Penetration Gem
|
Tala Moana,
With the new poison skills that are soon to be added, don't we need some more support gems specifically for poison damage? Like a simple poison penetration: Poison Penetration: "Penetrates enemy resistance to chaos damage (lvl 20: 25% penetration) but your chaos damage won't bypass enemy ES anymore". => This will make poison damage more balanced instead of either OP or useless. It would also make it more fun in PvP, as CI characters will have 75% poison resistance (and ofcourse their huge ES pool, so they will still be very hard to take down with pure chaos damage) instead of 100% immunity.

Don't know how it would work out in PVE, but talking about poison arrow in pvp...
It now wrecks everything not ci, so my answer regarding pvp: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JncgoPKklVE Last edited by Andrius319#4787 on Nov 5, 2015, 8:32:02 AM

Like chaos type attacks aren't powerful enough yet. Definitely no.
P.S. Try going to Sarn arena and you will see all those poison arrow homolords. P.S.S I would suggest adding new items which increase max chaos resistance to balance the game.

Wow... reaching 20 challenge points really doesn't help people understand the game...
Fire Penetration doesn't work on burn damage, no matter if triggered through critical strikes or implicit like in Fire Trap or Searing Bond. So why should a Chaos Penetration gem work on the damage over time of Poison Arrow? " It wouldn't, CI says you get IMMUNE to chaos, not you get 100% resistance. Of course it's whats displayed on the defense sheet of your character, but that contradicts the keystone. Besides taking 25% chaos damage to life while only having 1 life would mean that even the weakest chaos attack would instantly kill you. YES, THAT WOULD MAKE PVP AGAINST CI DEFINITLY MORE FUN!

The reading comprehension in this thread is atrocious.
Cannot bypass energy shield. CI will still get hurt but not to their HP. |

" Didn't read the edited post again, the original was different. |
|
" That is not true, the not bypass ES has been there since the beginning... . Please read before you reply, thanks! |
|
" Wasn't there something about x% does not bypass ES where x was below 100? |
