Well in my point of view it not look good.
I'm not doing well in PoE, in fact I struggle to run some yellow maps and can run some red but at high risk. (shorted)

Just play rf bro, you have all the defenses you need to progress smoothly even if the damage is low

Never been able uderstood RF enough to be able use it on reall playthrought, I mean understood to the point when I can do changes in build / gear based on what type of gear I acctually can loot / craft, not the ideall one from build guide.

This is my pob for HC, surely you can make it work in SC too :

If you want to scale rf play inquisitor not chieftain.
You want as much life as possible, life scales es and both scale damage.
Life also scales life regen and es regen is equal to life regen.
The same mods scale both gems, check the scaling damage section

And for high end rf, str stacking ivory tower scion (dont do ivory tower + coruscating in HC) or int stacking :

Shake the meta even more, come on. It's been a year.

we need meta change for real, please Mark hear us

Hi, With the 3.26 league, if my hireling lands the killing blow, does magic find calculate from my character’s IIQ/IIR or from the mercenary’s gear/stats (if they have any)?

Please reconsider the hexblast change...:

1) Adding the 2 second cooldown is way too long + for people who have done self cast hexblast it makes it unplayable

2) Normally the gem changes are *numerical* -- which was what I was expecting... not completely gutting it. Make it more in line with the other skills. I'm ok with nerfs but this is just not it...

3) Plenty of builds can be done on a few div budget and do fine for t16s at least and get the void stones just like the hexblast mines (not like it was the only overpowered skill to do stuff on a budget... there are others)

4) Is it because that it targets enemies without even thinking/freezing stuff?... but bows-minions-other spells do that as well

5) lightning strike + molten strike of the zenith seem to be playable at least still?... but hexblast cant/ is that where the line is drawn? (those 2 skills were played more then hexblast)

It just feels bit unfair/unreasonable nerf...

Now... maybe there's a way to make it playable with the rune stuff. or 1 of the new special mods, we shall wait and see.

Its pretty much guaranteed that it uses the merc's rarity

Will a mercenary be able to trigger skills? (such as The Saviour's Reflection)

GGG pls change WOrb from "Increases and Reductions to Cast Speed also apply to Projectile Frequency" to "Modifiers to Cast Speed also apply to Projectile Frequency" so we can make use of Righteous Fire of Arcane Devotion.

The mercenary feature sounds kind of annoying to me. I don't want to gear up a second character, but I will be punished in terms of drops if I don't try to.

Any chance of some bonuses for NOT taking a mercenary?

we will be abble to change gems from mercenary as well?
