Path of Exile 1 Gameplay Help and Discussion - Unique Item List - 300 of 419 - Forum

any character can easily get 30% all resist from tree alone. 1 single piece of absolutely mediocre resist item can bring your all resis to a positive. From that point on, this helm absolutely sucks. Sure this helm would shine if your gear is the absolute worst but I doubt you want to pay more than a couple chaos for it if your gear is that bad. PvP items are always considered trash and never sell for more than a couple chaos. A good helm will easily means more than 20% defense in relation to the rest of your gear so the global defense mod is NOT an upgrade, it's just there to make the helm less bad and to show us that GGG is "creative". To think that this helm is fit for mapping is insanity. Standard IGN: WTFNamesAllTaken. Online everyday at 10 AM CST and at several different hours throughout the day.

" Skouros wrote: 20% Global Defense equates to a considerable amount of ES, Armor, and/or Evasion for some builds which acquire very little % increases of them because they are focused on HP or Mana. It affects all 3 at once, which is also significant, and the equivalent of 20% to ALL THREE is quite a few passive points even IF you are using a ton of passives for them. 20% increased ES is nothing to scoff at, that's an added 10% of your total for a build that has 200% from passives. The fact that this removes all need for resists (as much of a downside as it is) also has significant value. How many pieces of gear are absolutely AMAZING barring their lack of resists? This single item just made those leap up in value for any builds that are designed to use this (assuming SOME can be made). The problem, as you see it, is that you believe a character is virtually guaranteed to die while using this from some spell or other. Now, I ask you this: if that problem can be worked around successfully using some other mechanic than resists - even something other than spell block (keeping in mind that capping spell block isn't THAT hard) - this helm is QUITE good, EVEN for end game? I already have several ideas in mind for this. If you want those ideas, I suggest you consider it a personal challenge to discover some for yourself. :D Edit: Another side effect is items that have negative resist values have almost no downside any more with it (again assuming you can overcome the downside of this item). so you say that loosing an arm is in the long run benefit because you save up on hand wash soap? sorry, 0 resists == instant death. you can twist and twist but this is just that - instant death if the upside was damage - than maybe uber-glass-cannon type of synergy. but the upside is durability. durability that had just been lowered to zero. nice diablo 1 item (helm of steel iirc) but in poe == insta death	Posted by sidtherat#1310 on Dec 23, 2013, 1:50:46 AM Quote this Post

I consider people who think anything not perfectly suited for mapping level 80+ is useless trash to be closed minded. :D	Posted by Skouros#0070 on Dec 23, 2013, 1:52:30 AM Quote this Post
" DaveSW wrote: Seriously, that new helm would go great that belt that reduces resists. It removes badness from Immortal Flesh and adds even more badness. 0% resists = death, starting from act 2 normal.

" returntozero wrote: This been posted yet? Pretty neat item awesome. and yeah, this was made for adder's touch. it's also a possible 200dps, would be a cheap alternative for some certain rare daggers. Better stay in the land of the damned, Exile. Here, even the very words are corrupted by Nightmare.	Posted by enveratise#2153 on Dec 23, 2013, 2:02:03 AM Quote this Post
