[abandoned] Shockwave Support doesn't work with Varunastra
|
if the active skill can't be used with Maces, Sceptres or Staves.
first bug report Any official statement 1.7 years later? Problem: impostor syndrome Solution: nerf everything Result: depressing mess Last edited by a_z0_9#4860 on May 9, 2022, 12:51:29 PM Last bumped on Feb 10, 2022, 8:13:28 AM

Varunastra is a Sword
Shockwave Support can only work with mace, sceptre and staff The only bug would be the mod "Counts as all One Handed Melee Weapon Types" is for added weapon damage and crit chance , or for any thing such as support gem or not. This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee. About the username: Did you know Kowloon Gundam is made in Neo Hong Kong?

" What does this even mean? Varunastra used to works with Any Melee skill and Shockwave Support But with Blight release they cut the functionality off. I humbly wonder if there a fix coming any time soon. Problem: impostor syndrome

Yeah you need GGG to response or just DM that guy replied in Feb 2020 edit: the support gem letter do show up when using Varunastra + Shockwave Support + Ele Hit, and the shockwave do show up on melee hit which https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2771462 " i am not really sure it is intended or not at the first place Since Whirling Blades need daggers, claws and one handed swords. Shockwave Support need mace, sceptre and staff Really work that way when fusing it with Varunastra ? edit 2: Ok, can't remember when the support gem tool tip is introduced. But here is the thing: Whirling Blades can be used with Varunastra Whirling Blades cannot be supported by Shockwave support according to tooltip So, it seems it is hard locked at support gem level that which active skill can be support and which is not, no matter you have Varunastra or not. And it will be one of the POE 2 core feature which prevent unsupported gem to socket together. I would be surprised no "Varunastra Whirling Blades Shockwave" is a bug instead This is the start of forum signature: I am not a GGG employee.

" What skills are you trying to use with Shockwave and Varunastra? | |
|
Blade Flurry and Whirling Blades.
The item mod description implies that the item IS considered as each and every one-handed melee weapon, so a gem that has item-specific usage restriction should work in conjunction with the item. Shockwave discriptions says: Supported Skills can only be used with Maces, Sceptres or Staves Varunastra is one-handed Mace and Sceptre. Blade Flurry says: Requires a Dagger, Claw or One-Handed Sword. Varunastra is a Dagger, Claw and One-Handed Sword. If your vision of the mod logic so drasticly changed since Blight league then the mod description should've been changed too. instead of: Counts as all One Handed Melee Weapon Types to: Increases and Reductions to all One Handed Melee Weapon Types Damage also apply to Attacks with this weapon Problem: impostor syndrome Solution: nerf everything Result: depressing mess Last edited by a_z0_9#4860 on Jul 28, 2021, 11:40:10 PM

" So this is currently intended. The support gems that add weapon restrictions were intentionally changed based on player feedback to be unable to support skills that had conflicting weapon restrictions, sometime in the 3.7.X series of patches. We're aware that this prevents a niche case where they'd otherwise work (only) with Varunastra, and may change this again in future. | |

Perhaps include varunastra then? The weapon seems realy weak atm and this would make it somewhat viable again

Hey there, slightly necroing this post, but I wanted to ask how the view on this issue is by now, because my Meme build and I would be very happy if this restriction could change, gl for the league launch meanwhile :)
