Molten Strike Retrospective

(not checked the inbetween pages if to see if similar has been asked).

Does less AoE make u able to get the 3 splashes to hit the front monster all at once? Considering how more aoe makes them go a bit further out, now they would all go closer to the main monster and yourself.

Thinking of conc effect :)
Anyone tested this?

Yes, the difference is noticable.

I am trying it out and I ------------------------
I edit out my prior comment as I find that it does work very well for me now.

Median XL is like the best Diablo 2 mod. Why the hell do you refer to it like it's some D3 garbage?

Why would you want the game to turn into this

Turn into?
Never seen a Cast on Crit GMP fireball build, eh?

Awesome. I love this skill =D

molten strike was a nice addition to poe and it is a very strong skill at low levels (aka racing situations) and at endgame (mapping lv74+) still viable if build around but not OP like someone mentioned.

but like someone else mentioned unarmed should also get some love again - maybe something like ek but base on shields (shield throw?? -> captain america style)

but again thx for the add of this skillgem since i now can switch freely in my selfmade lightning strike build from ls to molten if im bored of the other skill.

Very interesting!

Molten Strike is great fun, with its versatility both in skill point builds and gem links.

Made it in 10min, and you can see the range of explosions.
Molten strike animation creates a bit of confusion about where and how much the impact radius is...should have some more additions to explosions.
The skill animation in my opinion could be done much better then how it is right now...no offence.
Was modified on a low spec computer btw...the actual effects are much nicer on full effects options.

Playing with skills graphics effects :)

Bye,

Looking for more detailed information on Molten Strike?

Check out http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/911557. The community has come together and has tested the living crap out of this skill. OP claims it isn't the most powerful skill but our testing is definitely showing it to be quite overpowered. Massive amounts of damage with very little investment, things get pretty nuts when you add a three dragons helm and some shock chance. Since you can stack minimal damage nodes your passive tree can be focused on turning your character into a tank that simply fires nukes instead of shells.

I really enjoyed this Retrospective post, deffo wouldnt mind seeing more of them *wink*

gg GGG!
