New Support Gems Coming to The Fall of Oriath Beta

Will there be a passive and ascendyncy reset after the update that implements these gems? Would seem appropriate in order to do proper testing.
Vile Toxins Support
What the main point of it's?!
Hit damage scaling OR Poison?!
For poison it is useless even if hit damage is Chaos. So it Is Hit damage Like Bloodlust support!

I don't understand developers!
They made so many DoT Support gems, but I 99% guarantee that this gems WON'T be used with Poison But likes of: Essence Drain / Vortex / Caustic Arrow!

If you Want to buff Poison why not increase BASE poison damage? At now it is 8% of (Physical + Chaos) hit damage!


As for BETA, is there anyone who tested:
1) POISON builds?
2) ES build with melee attack? OR ES now exclusively only RANGED build?

Furthermore I don't see any viable POISON build for character ITSELF!
ONLY SUMMON!!!

I haven't read a single thing about the Maim support. Do you guys not realize it's essencially a 30% more multiplier at lvl 1?
Since enemies take 20% increased dmg means you deal 20% more dmg, 10+20 is 30%. There are no drawbacks on the gem either, and maiming is great defensively too.

It's not a 30% more multiplier since it has a 30% chance of maiming. Aka if you take that into account it's ~10% more overall.


Unless you play assassin with 100% chance to poison. After first hit you'd have 80% chance to Maim XD


Yeah but he said there are no drawbacks, there obviously are some drawbacks and it's still not 30% more.

Brutality and Maim: Confirmed Ancestral totem buff. Melee dmg + melee on full life + brutality + Maim + totem + god mode

Brutality isn't limited to melee as melee physical is is the main point. Also for physical builds you don't have elemental dmg added to your gear at all. If you do its simply not your end gear and only temporary the loss of those small rolls is negligible.

Also, (I could be wrong as I haven't tested) but I don't thing melee physical effects bleed? Bleed isn't melee damage. Only straight %physical has an effect as far as I know.

Melee physical would affect bleed if caused by a melee attack because it is like poison, damage based off of attack that applied it.

I missed it was all physical, so good call. I'm just trying to think of what would honestly improve in my main's potential build and it seems counter intuitive given my reliance on Hatred for free damage.


Just got home and tested. Melee physical support gem does not effect bleed. What you are describing is what would have happened if double dipping was allowed. However, bleed now works differently. Bleed Damage is based on weapon damage BEFORE any modifiers are applied. Then it goes through modifiers that actually effect it. Since Bleed is not a melee skill the gem's modifier has no effect on it. But if you aren't using bleed then it's no big deal in the end.

Damn... you ninja'd me. I'm starting to think that the next meta might be a viperstrike starforge build. Massive raw physical, no elemental and a lot of poison. The 30% more multiplier with 6+ stacks should be easy to grab even with a slow hitting weapon...

Cheers,
Matt.
There are 10 types of people. Those that know binary, and those that dont.
Drop only? or which quest rewards for which characters?
