[REL]Grim Quest

Oops! Wrong thread. :o

Any plans to change Overgrowth? :slight_smile:


Hmmm

Hmmmm! Awesome job :smiley: TQ shields gonna be in the next update? That’d be bomb. Sucks the armor isn’t compatible with how GD replaces instead of covers the body. Hats miiiight work though.

Um, decisions, decisions. I want to try out the new Rogue skills and can’t make up my mind between having Dream or Occultist as the second mastery. Occultist seems to syngerise better, but I like the fact I’ll have constant healing/energy from Dream’s Trance of Convalescence and Psionic Artery. Also Dream gives different damage types to Rogue so may be better for those foes resistant to poison/acid/bleed/vitality/chaos which I’d get if I go Rogue/Occultist. :undecided:

Oh, and any Devotion ideas for both would be appreciated. Haven’t looked at those yet as I’m undecided on which way to go.

Dream is a verryyy flexible mastery (if not the best,hehe), it can be good as offensive mastery for Rogue (choose Trance of Wrath + Abomination devotion -> Tainted Eruption to poisoning the whole screen or Acid Spray to more RR, if you dont want to take poison gas bomb from rogue, which has more flat RR than acid spray), or defensive -> put Mark of Wendigo on Trance of Wrath to sap the life force of enemies and heal or Trance of Convalescence for dmg absorb, and dont forget to take distortion field, it gives more % dmg absorb and flat dmg absorb which helps a lot too :))

Not to mention Dream has Temporal flux which is great for Rogue, cause you can stack a good amount of evade for projectiles and +total speed/% CDR.

BTW, CDR is good for boomerang blades, poison gas bomb and devotions. Collecting over 50% is great (0.7sec CD on Tip the Scales, 1 sec CD on Fetid Pool, 1.5 sec CD on Tainted Eruption etc.). 18-19% CDR from offhand, 4% from caster weapon, 6-7% from helmet, 12-18% from Relic of Jade Emperor (70lvl), 10-15% from Temporal Flux. Over 50% is possible :slight_smile:

So, if i were you, i chose Dream+Rogue for Vitality/Decay/Poison build :cool:
And i’d took Dream as first mastery, cause it’s easier to play from start (Distortion wave + ripple modifier for spammable skill) :slight_smile:

Thanks for that Soulstorm. I was thinking of dual wielding, but as I’d also like to spam throwing knives maybe it would be better not to. I played Fozzie’s knife spamming TQIT Magician build a while ago and it was great fun. Don’t know how much cooldown I’d get out of Flick of the Wrist yet (only L5 with Rogue as first mastery so far), but combined with your other suggestions it should be pretty high methinks.

I was thinking knives, boomarang blades, traps and maybe bombs so not planning on adding distortion wave as well, but with one point only in traps they do seem to be pretty slow when working so maybe drop those. I know they seem to be one of the most difficult TQ skills to modify well. Or maybe they just get faster the more points you put into the base skill.

Just had a thought, what about getting Widow for Arcane Bomb to go on Poison Bomb? Different damage types, so maybe not the best to go for, but sounds as if it would be an interesting combo.

Imo hold off on any rogue builds for a bit :wink:

Why? New update coming out soon? Changing some of the Rogue skills?

Np, you’re welcome :slight_smile: As for throwing knives, the last modifier in its line gives you 95% CDR, so just a 5% more CDR needed to spam it :cool:

Distortion wave is much better vs Throwing Knives at the start because:

  1. t1 skill
  2. can be spammable
    3)wider than knives and hits more targets at once

To make knives spammable you need at least 39 points. To make distortion wave spammable you need only 7 points :stuck_out_tongue:

PS: arcane bomb on poison gas bomb is not the best choice. Different damage types and no synergies at all, you will just waste dev.point, imo

is a bit means when xpac arrive (lol)? If only zenith will update s§oon too…

Ah well, it was just a thought. Keep seeing Widow/Arcane Bomb mentioned for some builds, but haven’t tried it out myself yet.

Sounds like I may be able to dual wield and spam knives then if Flick of the Wrist gives so much cooldown. Cool! :smiley:

Yep, and rapid construction 8/8 will make Lay Trap to have only 2.5 sec CD if you’re planning to take them too :slight_smile:

Lots of rogue changes coming, trap line is basically all new. No ETA but I’d wager at least a week. I still want to take a look at the knife line.

Ah okay Asylum101. Wanting to see the Boomarang Blades in action, but I can wait a bit. And interested to see what you do with Traps (remove the 3 summon limit would be great allowing infinite traps ;)). Guess I’ll play my other GQ toons a bit longer while I try and decide what Devotions to take for a Dreamkiller. :slight_smile:

I already asked similar question in Zenith’s thread, but will ask here too:
Asylum, is it possible to make Psionic Focus/Dark Reverie not affected by +to all/mastery skills? Because, for example, if i want to convert only 33% of physical damage to lightning/vitality, the conversion goes for 66-100% with + to all/mastery skills bonuses :frowning:

No. A solution would be to seek conversion from item sources.

Ah…ok, thx for answer.

Wow, having fun with my Stormlord (Shaman/Storm combo). Having Molton Orb early on was fun, but now he has Skyfire Pendant he’s becoming a real Stormlord. Lightning all over the place. Can’t wait to move up to Effigy of Skyfire for even more %chance to proc it. :smiley:

Found one bug :slight_smile:

That was reported already a few pages back so I got that one, thanks though.
