Revamped Ascendancy Class Reveal: Trickster
" I have been theorizing a lot on this skill too. The downside is you have to a fast hitting skill to make the best of this, otherwise the variance is considerable. I hope someone can run simulation to precisely estimate how it goes. An exact calculation of the variance in a distribution like this is quite complex, I'm not sure how to precisely calculate it, but I'm sure the folks on math.stackexchange can do it if rigor is needed. |

" It reminds me more of Mortreds old ulti. 10% to deal x2 dmg 5% to deal x3 dmg. To GGG: Can you fix this interaction before the league starts? I wanted to make a trickster based on that node but without the abuse. I'd hate to ride the meta bandwagon by accident. I'm a forum warrior, i was born to post, raised to defend my league. Now my post has been removed, chained and exiled by mods who Ban. Ban is my brother; i do not fear it. I see it in the eyes of men and beasts that i troll. It will take me to play the actual game when i am ready and i am not ready. Last edited by Pyrokar#6587 on Feb 28, 2018, 4:22:00 AM

I hope it works properly with Viper strike since it already converts part of physical to chaos so it wont cut your chaos procs. It has some good potential with poison builds.

Added a new notable - Harness the Void: Grants your hits a 25% chance to gain 25% of Non-Chaos Damage as Extra Chaos Damage, 15% chance to gain 50% of Non-Chaos Damage as Extra Chaos Damage and 5% chance to gain 100% of Non-Chaos Damage as Extra Chaos Damage.
Nerfed down to total ~ 16,25 % chaos damage. |

The nerf is REAL. Lolz

" you can get a fixed 13% non chaos damage as chaos from a single mod on an elder amulet and since biscos was nerfed to the ground someone explain to me why trickster is worth picking since harness was the strongest node...............?? i am utterly confused I got a fever and the only prescription, is more cowbell!

Yeah, as always they overdid it (be it a nerf or a buff). Trickster still got the eva/es notables which are very strong, but besides being very niche, DPS >>>>> defense. The void notable currently not only is very weak from a damage standpoint, it is also situational. The new damage numbers are ok, but they could increase the chance. Something like 30% - 25% - 15% would be fine. I think. Maybe even 25% - 20% - 15%.
This and the fact that they did not buff the rage mechani on Berseker are the most diasspointing final adjustments to me. WHY THE FUCK would ANYONE get double rage effect for an extra 50% damage +25% speed and doubling his degen, when he can simply get the very same increase from Cloaked in Savagery, while also getting 100% leech, and have it ready at will instantly instead of building around it. I have serious troubles understanding their mindframe sometimes. Last edited by astraph#3219 on Mar 1, 2018, 1:18:26 AM

RIP Harness the void, we hardly knew ya :D
First GGG over-does it on the node power, then they over-do it on the nerf, come on :D Last edited by nskLantash#4654 on Mar 1, 2018, 1:39:22 AM

Well, RIP my league starter build. i guess i will stay on standard then :) |

it's still ridciulously strong. I mean, I don't even know why people are talking abotu using anything except totems and kitava's thirst with harness the void. Just max spark or forking chaing EK nova or whatever and u will be hitting everything like 5x a second. You will have constant bonus from the ascendancy. The change makes sense to me.
And yeah, he's a trickster so you SHOULD have to do weird things like totems and kitava's to get the most out of his stuff. |
