I just can't figure out how to get from the numbers I can see ingame in the character sheet to the total DPS number that the game calculates. I tried to do it with a spreadsheet, but no success.

You should use Path of Building, it's much more reliable for calculating your DpS.

should the ilvl 85 crusader mod "enemies killed explode, dealing 3% of their life as physical damage" work with mines?

and if it should, it does not work ingame

at first I wish you all a happy new year!

Excuse my stupidity... I don't understand why I get low level mobs in maps only although I am using watchstones. For example if I do a T1 map with 2 Stones socketed it should become T8 = Level 75 Mobs, right? Still I got Level 68 only...
what am I doing wrong?

Socketing a watchstone means that you won't be able to find t1 jungle valley maps, and you will be able to find t4 jungle valley maps.
Your t1 jungle valley maps remain t1.

The option 'Modifiers to numbers of projectiles...' does not seem to work with winter orb projectile while it works with fireball. I want to know why, please.

Winter orb can't split

I have a query regarding close combat with consecrated path
Is the distance and damage for close combat calculated when the skill is initiated ie. before the teleport or when the skill hits the mob after teleport ?

What is the level of spiders raised by Araakali's Fang Raise Spiders?

In the 3.5 patch notes it is stated: "Raised Spiders are now Level 75, instead of the level of the area you are in" and nothing relevant that I can find in the later major patches

But, on the in-game description of the Raise Spiders skill it is:
"Minions have the same Level as the corpse"

What is true?

How does the syndicate encounter work?

I played like 30 hours in the past two days just to get a 3 star Hollick in transportation so I can +28 quality my weapon. but so far everything seems so random.

sometimes cards(or members) move for no reason to different divisions whenever I click their card on the ground.

I thought the next highest-ranking member will become the division captain when I run the hideout. However, I've seen members from different divisions become the hideout captain on the hideout I just ran.

my question is as follows. Is there a way to accurately, carefully, and intentionally make Hillock or any other members to become a 3-star hideout captain that does not rely on rng.

hi. i have a question about the new ,,Killed Enemies Explode, dealing 3% of their Life as Physical Damage,, mod on crusader chests.
does this work with minions like holy relics?
can someone try it out if they pop? because it sounds like a global mod.
would be really helpfull if someone could take the time for that =)


Thank you for your time in reading this post.

Quick clarification sought:

When a passive gives me "Enemies have -15% to Total Physical Damage Reduction against your hits", is that an absolute reduction, or a relative?

In other words: if an enemy normally has 60% reduction against my physical damage, does this passive turn that into 60-15=45% (absolute reduction) or 60*0.85=51% (relative reduction)?

It was reported quite a few times that this affix is currently bugged. It should work, as Sporeguard's explosions trigger when using traps and mines, and the wording is exactly the same.

No, it will not work for minions. Minions are allies, not "you". It has to be you who performed the kill.
