Rathpith doesnt even seem good for this ascendancy. Sacrifice 4% of life wont do anything since its not increasing the cost of skill, those are 2 separate mechanics. 10% life increase is less of a deal than you think, if it said "more life" that would be different story but it doesnt.

Also i imagine it would be used more with traps. Explosive trap is already nice skill.


We talking about whats past that. Changes ES to HP, so with some big ES chestpiece you can reach way more HP than you currently could. It will be like Kaoms Heart but with sockets.

Even the life based ascendency is already dead on arrival and only just a pick for very niche cases especially with the wildwood primalist choices of more power in different ways.


Mark ma word, it will be played more than primalist. And its not because of HP stacking, thats just for some meme builds.

But normal shield would be superior, rathpith is really nothing special. The sacrifice part does nothing, its pure drowback, es is kinda small and 10% life is lame.

Even the curses are more of a niche thing and not really useful in most builds.
I guess you can make some sort of meme builds or hc turbo sweater "I'm so scared" build with the creeping lobotomy. Could be cool for deep delving as well, but that's also such a niche use.
Warden is another thing, some neat stuff but overall also just useful for very few builds. Wildwood lets you at least pick something that ends up being useful in one or another way on your own individual build.
Flames and madness. I'm so glad I didn't miss the fun.

Because it is not. If you want to go with hp stacking the better option is utulas hunger and that prevents you from using that shield. What does it have to be worth it? 10% life when you get 240% anyway? You wont even notice it.

what does utulas hunger has to do with ratpith at all? did u even read what ratpith does? you get high crit and spell dmg my hexblast had 16k life why would you ever use utulas and not shield? the build doesnt even work without shield

No usefull? Literally any skill that chains will use that ascendency to get 100% more DMG on single target.

Crit chance was never an issue. Spell dmg is nice but even with 10k hp its just 500% increased. Utulas will work better with new ascendency.

no it wont? some life stack builds gonna use utulas and some gonna use ratpith you literally cant make a better hexblast with utulas over ratpith hexblast and my hexblast had 15k hp and had around 80mil dps for example the new burning arrow or new rf would use utulas but they dont need ratpith becuz it does nothing for the build

Dude im not saying rathpith is trash, its cool and all but its not second comming of Jesus either. It will still be used in that 1 specific build and maybe 1 more will pop up but thats it. Check in what topic you post. We consider new ascendencies impact on the price for that shield not how good it is. My point is new league changes nothing because its not good item for new ascencndency.
