Not sure what to think but i'd be pretty salty. It's a Soul Eater mob with easily 100 stacks absorbed. He literally walks behind him for like 3 corridors and just absorbs everything. I know its the soul eater mob but he gets auto'd by it earlier in the clip and it really isn't doing much, what i'm saying is there is a massive disconnect between this monsters regular damage and its output on the cone. To do damage like this the cone has to have a set duration coefficient but has damage instances within that duration scaled by attack speed/cast rather than the entire attack getting shorter. Pretty unusual and means these mobs will be exponentially more dangerous from speed buffs/frenzies etc.	Posted by Draegnarrr#2823 on Sep 6, 2018, 9:36:00 AM Quote this Post

The creep isn't doing much on "autoattack" because he is evading all the hits. The power of blind aura + some evasion layering is insane on sab ascendancy. Easy 80%+ evade even on high tiers. And he probably has dodge i imagine so thats another full negating layer. His "autoattacks" aren't doing much, 0 to be precise, so we can't really compare his normal hits vs the wave.(which i assume is a spell so he only has 40% dodge vs that) Peace, -Boem- Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes	Posted by Boem#2861 on Sep 6, 2018, 10:58:48 AM On Probation Quote this Post
I know that Boem but my point is the cone attack obviously has a crazy interaction with cast/attack speed, most rares don't have any kind of attack/spells that scales that high, void dogs maybe as they use (old) incinerate.

No, it doesnt. It just hit harder than freaking truck. On Depth ~100 this thing hit me for 5k (and it was just rare monster w/o any soul eater or such thing) You dodge it or you die. Deal with it.

Anyway this won't matter anymore when the first ones of the ladder will stall. So people who farm their own sulphite but have better builds or skills will reach them eventually. I was hoping for self-found sulphite without the additional gimping that comes with SSF. I've stated that previously. It's actually moot. It doesn't work that way and probably never will. And that's ok. I just wish it was different. However, I would like to address this "catch up" theory people keep repeating. I think you need to do some math. All other things being equal, delve depth will depend on how much sulphite you can gather. These guys have a HUGE numerical advantage. It's unlikely that anyone will be able to catch them during the league. Remember, they NEVER have to stop delving. Everyone else does. Even when they slow down with depth gains they will already be so far ahead it will be impossible to catch up. But w/e. Some people seem to think that's ok, totally fair, etc. I don't. I was hoping the solo ladder would require pure solo effort. It doesn't so I just don't give a shit about the ladder any more. It's been good actually. I stopped going down as fast as soon as I did a little number crunching when I found out about this loophole. I have zero chance of ever catching up with any of the "team" solo players, so fuck it. In any event, I'm not going to participate in this conversation any more, nor am I going to keep harping on about the situation. I've stated my point and made my case. Some people disagree and that's fine. I just think in the end people are going to realize this isn't just about going fast. They will get deeper because they can gather more sulphite than anyone else. If someone who truly plays solo catches up to within 100 levels of these guys I'll be shocked. If someone truly solos deeper than them I'll eat my words and admit I was wrong. POE Serenity Prayer: GGG, grant me the serenity to accept the RNG I cannot change, the courage to challenge any unbalanced content, and the wisdom to avoid the forums.

Deal with it. ? If it hit you for 5k on depth 100 it would be a guaranteed one shot on any of the real floors, its pretty close to instant cast and doesn't actually do it in one hit anyway its a channel like dodge it lul is not epic advice here. The player in the clip absolutely needed to kill it before it juiced up so many charges but I don't get why your so butthurt about some analysis of the danger knowing this shit is how you get far.

You want solo to be SSF but not SSF. Because you don't want to lose the ability to trade for gear, currency, party up etc. You want to pick wich group benefits are allowed and wich aren't. Sounds abit hypocritical don't you think? So once again. The SOLO ladder is about delving solo while being able to trade outside of delve, the SSF ladder is about delving solo while all resources are solo. You can't just pick and choose wich one you deem necesarry to be solo but still wanting the rest to be not solo.	Posted by Miská#0911 on Sep 6, 2018, 3:17:53 PM Quote this Post
