Sooooooo VP goodbye

+5 max res, life leech gem, added chaos damage gem, so in reflect terms a 4 link non crit arc with +5 max res and your a lvl85 elementalist with a passive that gives you 50% less reflected damage taken + 8% reduced reflect damage taken after the first hit.

You survive reflect because your probably taking 1/10 of the damage a fully geared up non elementalist crit arc character is taking.





I still deal a good amount of damage (while shocking pretty often thanks to Arc itself + the boot enchant I am wearing, elementalist notable, conductivity w/ blasphemy, and elementalist asc class, so HoT spams a lot), so without the staff I linked (had the East version at 5L) + life leech gem, ele reflect rares was still an issue to worry and ele reflect map was not even possible.

How much mana does that Arc cost in total?

My chars are usually more tank than cannon so reflect rares aren't a huge problem. There's a shrapnel shot raider I got (full lightning, non-crit, probably pushes somewhere between 100 and 150k single target optimally) that kinda cuts it close, if a rare is beefy, map mods align and I'm not paying attention it might kill itself. Never actually died to it but there were close calls.

Well, regardless of everything, the game could use a bit of downscaling, a measly blue pack in reds can burst down 6k life in a jiffy if they live long enough to take a few swings. 6k is nothing these days and it's kinda working out because our life pools go up and down like a supercharged yo-yo.
Wish the armchair developers would go back to developing armchairs.

Oh right, wel on bright side, without VP you can regen life/es in uber lab so traps should be easier for HC guys..

Im for vp removal cos I dont play ranged :) the irony.. I just dont like 150% movement speed from 100%life to 20%;life to 100% couple times a second gameplay.

It does affect me, cos the game has to be balanced, so GGG just gonna continue balance difficulty around how well VP works! Also it makes boss fight meaningless.. just facetank. But ofc its hard theme to argue about balance. Beta in poe was lots harder, and we didnt needed insane dps or insane boss damages - it was thriling enough.

I mean, I agree with you. golem build has nothing on vp builds now, that was my point ;)

and then gets nerfed again for being too popular. But yea, I rather have the gloves be irrelevent forever.

Their going to nerf that so it does nothing.

Internal mechanical changes are not immune retro active nerfs.

edit : nevermind i read your post wrong neph.

Yeah obviously reflect should be a consideration for everybody who wants to play end-game or level up characters in the high 90's.
