General Discussion - "Reflect is a vital in PoE so players need to balance offence and defence and use their brains" - Forum

Ehhh? I'd say Volt is pretty damn solid on its own merits. 1.5 APS with an inherent 10% chance to shock on a 5% crit bow, couple that either with the static blows nodes or a crit build and you're looking at pretty epic damage. Just obnoxious that there's no corresponding node on the tree to its special convert-lightning-to-chaos.	Posted by IlyaK1986#4225 on Dec 16, 2013, 6:55:00 PM Quote this Post

Nothing wrong with reflect the way it is. Pretty easy to deal with. Lightning Thorns on the other hand could do with a review (Incinerate anyone?) Tin foil hats are a lie propagated by the aluminium industry.	Posted by Rufus82#5914 on Dec 16, 2013, 10:03:35 PM Quote this Post

Only elemental reflect is retarded because you cant counter it. Physical reflect can be countered with Immortal Call, so stop complaining, you dont need Voltaxis to bypass reflect, you just need physical damage build.

Reflect is no problem to me because I do no damage.	Posted by CCR5#7770 on Dec 17, 2013, 2:59:26 AM Quote this Post

Usually you don't know a monster is reflect until your health starts spiking down repeatedly for no apparent reason and you wonder if you're desynching. Would be nice for reflect mobs to have a more noticeable graphical effect. As it is, I think it's far too powerful in the % it reflects. Wish there were statistics we could see as to what people die to in game. I imagine a large amount, especially on hardcore, die to reflect. I thought reflect is an aura that you can see, with your eyes, while looking at the screen. “Demons run when a good man goes to war"	Posted by Sneakypaw#3052 on Dec 17, 2013, 3:32:14 AM Quote this Post
