Development Manifesto - Enhancing Poison - Forum

You're all totally missing the point. Incoming PA nerf.	Posted by Dos_Fafner on Oct 19, 2015, 7:16:18 AM Quote this Post
Hahaha man always when i come to these forums all the people who make stupid complaints are always people with 0 titles and don't bother with supporter packs. Nothing wrong with not supporting but you play for free and shout the loudest, wake up to yourselves. Poison stacks sound much better to me, id never use poison otherwise and poison arrow one of the oldest gems and needs re-doing like raise spectre. Speaking of summons, anyone know if we can add posion to zombies or minions via nodes? Just curious and dreaming lol. P.s thanks for the melee splash buff.

I do hope some of the changes include performance improvements to ground effects (or whatever it is in the engine that kills the frame rate). I am usually the last one to whine, but boy are they reducing the FPS. I only noticed it during the crazy all-mods weekends in 1MSC - take desecrated ground/tar + shocking ground + beyond portals + ice nova shrine + lots of corpses and live mobs = unplayable. The game literally turns into a slide show and I run it from an SSD on an i5 4670K with a GTX 970 and 16 GB of RAM. Please. PS. One thing I haven't checked is if this slideshow is maybe caused by lockstep kicking in due to tons of things happening at the same time, and not the graphics engine lagging. I'm sure the devs know which one it is though. I noiced this to on patches of ground with cold. Not sure if patches of ground mod is really worth it anyways. Great idea just seems to be buggy.

Sounds like a great addition, poison always felt lackluster. I am looking forward to this :) Viper Strike -> Poison Strike Poison Arrow -> Viper Arrow !? xD Have a problem with something I said?

Sounds great! Steam: teemu92	Posted by teemu92 on Oct 19, 2015, 7:54:39 AM Quote this Post
Damn if my Pa could stack i would 1hit every boss in this game :D But if new poison arrow won't be a poison so it will be radioactive smog :D? Rip all my chaos jewels if poison won't be poison anymore. It's like PA nerf ;] In order to get rid of clearspeed meta cap global movement speed at 100% but make all skills instant so everything feels great.

" We're introducing a support gem that lets skills poison, and increases poison damage. Just curious if it gonna add poison damage to zombies/spectres as well. I think it would be fair to enhance summoners and expand the possibilities for using melee combat spectres.	Posted by junnanu on Oct 19, 2015, 8:22:35 AM Quote this Post
