One handed weapons alternate per attack for almost all skills.
You could Dual Strike Mjolner but at that point you're not actually going to be getting more triggers than just using something sensible to trigger it.
*edit: Also, apparently for no good reason Dual Strike only triggers the mainhand anyway. So no, I guess.

But also, the map had Beyond and two of the Perandus boxes were stacked on top of each other. Really made me earn my biscuits. Was super fun. -__- Grats... I played well over 10 Perandus maps now and met Cadiro only once in my 3rd Perandus map.. Got nothing worthwhile so far, when I met him I bought 10c off him. Only twice had that Perandus box with lots of coins. Overall I got like 1.3k coins by now.
It's a huge gamble, but decently fun because of it. Just I swear I feel like Cadiro should appear more often. Someone on Reddit said he had him 7 out of 15 maps, I guess he was lucky or I'm fucking unlucky.

Okay, don't hate me, but I've done six Perandus now and already found a second archive.
If it makes you feel any better other than the archives I've had 0 map drops and no good Cadiro deals or other worthwhile boxes.
*For Cadiro I'm 4/8, so I would say you're probably unlucky.
|
Haha, grats. Well... I rather hear you say I'm unlucky, that makes me hope the next ones will be better.
edit: BAM, and the next one was great. Found Cadiro and bought Perandus Manor for 2.5k Coins. Had to buy some Coins before (disabled party members to join my HO ^^) but got it now! Now to decide what to do with it, is it hard? Never played it.

As a fairly new player, how do you build up better maps? I feel like i'm stuck at tier 6-8.
|
For yellow maps alching and only rerolling if you can't run the map should be fine. Make sure you explore the atlas as much as possible, the bonus is very good and having bad layouts unlocked in white/yellow is fine (possibly for reds as well but I haven't seen much math on that). That said, RNG is RNG so sometimes the answer is just run a lot of maps.
|
joining public parties helps a lot with building out the atlas
i wouldnt even both rerolling yellows, just do the other maps and vendor the busted ones for the unid'd rares.

Fucking ripped today as lvl 83 doing my 3´rd trial of ascendancy. First time I sat my foot in a trial I knew it would kill me sometime.

just curious, has anyone in our guild done shaper yet?

Since you bastards mentioned Mjölner I could not remove it from my mind. So I researched a bit all builds with it are Discharge builds using some broken combinations of unique items and Hierophant. I fast figured out that whatever I can come up with, it will not even come close to how broken that shit is. So I will just not worry about matching that and try to make something that is viable but not broken using Inquisitor and critical strikes (due to that power that makes his critical shots ignore monster elemental resistance).
I am just collecting info on all the items I will need and gems I will need and trying to figure out the best tree for it. I will present it once I am done with that. Then I will continue playing my Sire of Shards Ball Lightning build while collecting resources and buying everything I need for this next build
Btw that build is doing well, I am just finishing Cruel, having easy time doing it but the real test will be of course end game. This build plays a lot like a totem build centered on my character, I stop, cast once, 10 balls fly off in all directions and kill everything on and off screen, I just continue to move as soon as I cast it and while they finish murdering. It is fun :D
I only died once to Cruel Kole by being too cocky and standing there letting him hit me twice with this strongest attack without using a instant heal between them.

Up to 4500 Perandus coins. Still no good Cadiro deal or any more archives.
|
1200 fusings used so far on shavs, still no 6L

The cookie-cutter Mjölnir version is prolly what Weasel is doing at the moment: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Angryweasel/characters
Gets crazy pricy though, without the Voll's you can't abuse how strong Kingsguard is with it and need to play around a bit.

I seen builds without Voll that use Hierophant's ability where gaining Power Charges has 25% chance to give you an Endurance charge as well.
But I am going to try to make a different Mjölner build without discharge but a crit based Arc that uses 2 blasphemy curses, power charges and MoM and some other useful stuff I found (like this http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Mind_of_the_Council - which both solves mana "leech" and reflect danger). Mjolner can activate every 100ms so 10 times per second. That is a lot and I can get critical chance to almost 50% and critical damage pretty high. So every 2nd hit is going to be doing about 300% of base damage and ignoring enemy resistances and applying Shock . And vs bosses also Orb of Storms will be doing more damage :D

Don't run Perandus, kids. The god damn sunk cost fallacy will keep you going until the day you die.

but you could get a skyforths! or a headhunter!

Any good build ideas for Dying Sun? Was thinking of doing flask finder, for the effectiveness to boost to 3 projectiles, but not sure of a build that wants AoE and more projectiles
Was thinking Cospri's Malice + Arctic Breath, but I think Assassin or inquisitor would be better for Cospri.
|
I've heard it's pretty nuts with ED/contagion, especially with the free poison from flaskfinder. Note that enough flask effect adds more projectiles so at some point you might not even need contagion if you run with pierce.
The best use of +proj +aoe that I can think of off the top of my head has to be Lightning arrow + chain and KB wander, although it's probably overkill for that use-case anyway and those builds are mostly searching for a single target solution now that frostwall got nerfed. I guess fireball builds (ruby flask for reflect xd) but blech, seems bad as ranger flaskfinder.
|
The bottom thing is the most important. Making the numbers go up on something generally doesn't do anything unless it solves that build's issues. Sometimes making the numbers go up a lot frees up points or a link or something that you can then use to cover your problems, but normally it doesn't.

Perandus payed off. Shadows and Dust. GG.
