Hi!
I've been trying out interesting combinations of skills and support gems and I found that neither of the Deadeye's ascendancy notables that make projectiles return or chain work for Molten Strike. Is this deliberate? |

" Yep. Molten Strike's projectiles are not traditional Projectiles that travel from A outward to wherever, but instead more akin to ground-targeted explosions, like Rain of Arrows. |

Caustic arrow, specifically, the area damage:
1. will not benefit from high phy damage bow, as the "Gain (30-49)% of your Physical Damage as Extra Chaos Damage" is only apply to the hit damage, right? 2. will benefit from skill tree's: a. increased chaos damage b. increased DoT c. increased area damage d. increased trap/mine damage (if linked to trap/mine support gem) e. increased projectile damage f. increased critical strike chance / multiplier g. increased critical strike chance / multiplier with bow 3. will benefit from: a. point black support (gamepedia info says not affected, but that is based on pre 2.1 version info) b. chin sol bow's point black c. skill tree's point black node d. added chaos/fire/ice/lightning damage support e. Hypothermia Support if mob is chilled f. Void Manipulation Support 4. will NOT benefit from: a. increase attack damage |

1. Correct.
2. Yes: a, b, c, d, e No: f, g - DoT cannot Crit. Additionally, DoT is not an Attack, and thus cannot benefit from modifiers 'With Bow'. 3. Yes: Void Manipulation, and Quality on Added Chaos also works. No: Point Blank only applies to Attacks. Chin Sol only applies to Bow Damage, and as per 2.f/g, DoT is not damage dealt with a Weapon. Point Blank is Point Blank. Flat damage does not add onto DoT Damage over Time cannot perform state-checks, such as 'enemy is Chilled' for Hypothermia. 4. Correct. |

Hello, i have legacy Vessel of Vinktar in standard league. I want to reroll added spell damage roll with divine orb. Doing that will remove legacy variants ? I've checked wiki page and didn't catch any divine orb tag there. http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Vessel_of_Vinktar

Hi. I try to understand the whole process of receiving damage, so I have some questions.
According to wiki, damage values by source (phys/fire/cold/lightn/chaos) changes 3 times during receiving hit: 1) applying modifiers like "x% of physical damage taken as lightning damage" 2) damage mitigation by resistances and physical damage reduction 3) applying "damage taken" modifiers(flat, then increased/reduced, then more/less) Now questions: 1) Is the order above right? 2) What about "increased/reduced damage taken from critical strikes" modifier? Where should i place it in the order above? 3) Damage after what step is used as base for calculation of shock/chill/freeze/ignite duration and for stun-or-not calculation? 4) Damage after what step is reflected? 5) Damage after what step is used as base for leeching mechanics? |
