[Megathread] Path of Exile

Not really getting what the extra things on molten shell really do.

Edit: Each time you take a hit a fire explosion, or whatever, happens and it can only happen 32 times ('souls per use'?) until it expires? I am really not understanding this well lol.

Looks like that Ambush League theory might be true: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/806998/

Also, boots with Movement speed implicit mod and Vaal Molten Shell look dope.

Wow, that Corrupted Molten Shell looks totally dope!
Cant wait for the new leagues.... gimmeeeh. Now.

Gonna be fun making up fun new builds with the Corrupted gems.

EDIT: I'm guessing killing mobs stores souls in the gem and after you need to have 32 souls stored in the gem to actually activate the effect once.... And from the looks of it you can only store 32 souls at a time? Should be all good if you can kill 32 mobs every 10 seconds or so? :P

I'm guessing;
1. You need to kill 32 people to gain 1 use of Vaal Molten Armor. Any kills beyond these 32 will be wasted, if you don't use a Vaal ability to consume them.
2. This will give you the Vaal Molten Armor buff, which boosts your armor and releases a pulse of fire damage every time you're struck.
3. The Vaal Molten Armor buff runs out after 10 seconds.

Isnt a huge explosion when taken enough damage a lot better than this?

No. Depending on how often you get attacked, and how much damage molten shell does per attack, it can be quite godly.

If the gem actually does its full damage value per monster hit...you can get attacked 5-6 times a second with a big enough pack around you.

Looks awesome! I can't wait for the 5th, this is going to be a long weekend.

Good luck to the 1st 100 to kill Queen Atziri! I know I won't be one of them, but if someone here gets it, please post a screen of the item.

All I could think was, "Four boobs?"

What in the hell.

Gameplay seems amazing from the leaked preview.

Well by the sites background image it looked like 3 but 3 is a bit generic really.

What interested me was that they showed what seemed to be characters grabbing some nice looking gear from an otherwise empty stash...one of the new race events maybe?

The fourth one isn't visible but Chris confirmed it's four boobs. Lol.

I think that was more fore show. They probably dropped some gear in a stash and then had the character pick it up and equip it. More for effect than anything.

A quick(ish) demo from Chris showing some of the features.

Ambush looks like it could be pretty cool. I like that there is another use for currency orbs. Invasion sounds like it is designed to kill people, more so than the regular game that is. From what little I've seen, these 60(!) new bosses will make the Rogue Exiles look like chumps. I'm also liking that many of the fights are becoming much more intricate. I look forward to fighting Atziri.

A lot of new info about the patch have been released. It sounds really awesome. I do hope that a new gem or 2 would be added and not just corrupted tweaked gems

They've been constantly adding new gems since release. If there are no non-Vaal gems explicitly with the patch, they'll keep putting them out like usual.

Only negative thing I can say about the upcoming patch is I think the way they approach the atziri encounter is very poor, due to the 1st 100 microtransaction bit this will most likely force some players to play on the permanent leagues before they start playing on the temp ones.

Why is that poor or undesirable? The temp leagues are merely opt-in experiences. It is not the goal that players should prefer the temp leagues, per se.

It's not just the 1st 100, it's the 1st 50 from Invasion and 1st 50 from Ambush. This way everyone starts off on equal ground. There is no special reward for defeating her in Legacy Leagues.

Holy crap! That Marauder area has been really changed up! Looks like I need to take some screenshots of some skill trees before 1.1.0.

Edit: Also, I had no idea there were going to be tree changes. Everything has been so focused on SotV, and I have seen no mention of tree changes.
