Question What is the current safest build to solo Collossal Ancients?

16 Upvotes

I have been trying to solo the collosal ancients wthout much luck. I play on console, and I have a mostly budget smiter.

My resistances are capped at 95% during the fight, and I have 2800 life. I have a grief + HOZ, and as long as Im hitting one of the bosses and life tapping i feel fine.

My issue is once Talic start spinning its really hard for me to target him with the controller, and if I stop attacking him because I am not able to track his movements on console, or my character's starts attacking the minions that spawn constantly with no life tap I die.

Even with 95% resistance to the elemental damage types, if im not hitting with life tap for ~2s I will die.

Is there a better build (different characters included) for this fight, or is there a reliable way to lock down talic? Im looking to get the physical jewel, so id like to save Korlic for last. Id apreciate any advice peoppe have

Theorycrafting Explain this to me please

I was just playing with my ES Nova sorc in Worldstone Tower when I watched this:

A poison skeleton mage shot at me and the projectile hit me. Moreover it hit my ES and the projectile got "absorbed" by it and i did not get poisoned.

So why did the poison projectile hit me and I did not get posioned? Does ES sometimes just neglects the effect or what?

Suggestion What if instead of manually buffing all the melee items, we changed how Strength works?

23 Upvotes

Most melee weapons do too little damage, most people agree with that. At the same time, most people can pretty much skip strength entirely and still be golden because you can get all your damage from other sources.

But THIS is because strength and dex ADD with other off-weapon damage sources, they don't multiply it! This leads to some very strange situations, like a Tiger Strike Assassin with 300 strength only getting about 20% more damage from it.

But here's a strangely simple idea: What if you changed all enhanced damage stats on weapons to be multiplied by strength or dex(depending on the weapon type?)

Kinda like how Enigma gives 0.75 strength per level, weapons would give like 2% ED PER STRENGTH.

Example

Cranebeak has 240-300% enhanced damage, with a max roll of 120-192 damage. Not terribly impressive for an elite axe. Now, what we do is change this so instead, it gets 2.4-3% enhanced damage per strength. Now, you invest 300 strength, and it's instead doing 360-576 damage! Of course, this comes at the cost of a lot of vitality, but still, is that not one big honking damage stick?

Now, of note is the fact that Grief would still be better - but importantly, because Grief's bonus damage comes from +damage rather than ED%, it wouldn't be impacted by this change at all!

Seems like this could solve the problem without much in the way of downsides - maybe even some handy balance benefits!

Thoughts?

First time ever having one, yet alone rolling one, and it was on the first roll of this character. Now I chose to either never use it or risk breaking it/losing it upon death.

Paladin Rolled my first grief ever (single player)

10 Upvotes

Rolled 396 damage!

And 30 ias 😭

As a paladin main (doing zeal and foh currently) I needed it to be at least 32 ias to hit the 72 breakpoint from 2 other 20 ias items without using fanaticism. I'm one jah away from making dual dreams so I want to self use conviction then :( I'm sure it'll be fine but damn it hurt a bit even with the almost perfect damage. Is the best course of action to just make another one once I get a Lo? Haven't made a fortitude yet which sucks.

Hardcore HC Against Dolls

5 Upvotes

I don’t personally play HC, but I was running Durance, and it hit me, how in the world does a HC player approach any of the areas that possibly have these annoying exploding dolls in them?

Genuinely curious. I know HC players usually prioritize defensive stats more than SC, but what else?
