There are three especially powerful applications (among possibly more) of the quality change: Apex Cleaver for 60% quality on a phys weapon, Ward bases for Ward loop and Emperor's Vigilance for SST.
Oops. Original take mentioned the Apex Cleaver. Then I didn't like that part & rerecorded it... and forgot to put the Cleaver back.
Ward bases I'll reserve judgement on. It's probably good but who knows what other changes are made.
it would be crazy if ggg released lv78 ward bases
@@user-77796 Yeah. I'm currently just thinking of the 30% quality being multiplicative but if we get higher value ward basis, Nightgrip might actually be viable.
You are on crack if you believe they are not getting adjusted as a result of these changes
Or trickster indirect buff
blows my mind how you can compress such confusion into 10 minutes and make me understand it
as a small aside, the quality change is actually how quality *used* to work on equipment a very long time ago. i think they changed it to the current behaviour sometime in the original poe beta but im not 100% sure of that
indeed, they changed it in version 1.2.0 almost 10 years ago: "Quality on armour is now additive with other bonuses. Previously armour quality was multiplicative with final values. This is now consistent with how weapons work."
Melee league confirmed.
As for rarity of quality currency, the biggest downside of it becoming rarer (if that happens) will be the lack of wisdom scrolls in campaign on league start :D
great video as usual, thanks!
One of my fav times of year is to start hearing your teaser breakdowns! This format has always been fantastic.
His breakdowns fantastic
3:05 maybe that also means Unique maps
maybe, but they were talking about map tiers, not item rarity tiers
Love your work. Thanks for these videos bro
if the 30% quality beast still exist the unique marohi erqi can give almost 1600 flat phys. with volatility support and ryslathas you probably get into the 50m+ terrotory for high rolling hits.
maybe gladiator gets his lucky attack damage changed to be non conditional :3
Thanks you, as always, for keeping these videos focussed and to the point.
You're a great part of the PoE community and I really appreciate all of your contributions.
Amazing video as ever❤
Thank you!!
Dudes my go to poe news. legend.
What a perfect summer! My day starts with coffee and the daily video from sirgog :-) Thank you, Exile.
Great changes, thanks for shedding light on these!
Hey man I love your videos. I always learn so much. They're always insightful and well done. Thanks so much I'm a huge fan of your work.
That 30% evasion on the boots is clearly part of an existing hybrid mod with the stun and block recovery, so I doubt it is a new hybrid mod for life, unless they just added life to that mod as well.
I really hope they give us back a way to 30% quality unique gear :( losing hillock's fortification benches still really sucks
And no, beast corrupting for 30% doesn't count >:(
You have a method, but it hurts sanity. Qual base item and chance it to unique.
@@Time2paw I've considered that for some items actually, but I have some legacy uniques in standard I was going to quality to 30% using betrayal right before they made the change and now they're stuck at 20% until another option opens up :(
@@kenrichards1032 Why doesn't that count?
@@asdadfafafafffallslsldd8068 cuz then you can't double corrupt 30% qual item
I wish they would change orb of chance to reuse without scour every time
They would end up being an Alt/Chaos spam alternative
love these!
New tier of body armour incoming becoz of nerf to defensive auras(deter, grace,etc) so to compensate. eg.and making it harder to obtain high armor without being strength base characters wrt high requirements in stats to equip
Let's hope they don't nerf the blacksmith's whetstone drop rate because that's how you get lots of glassblower's baubles in the beginning...
🤔 it’s time to cry
I’m still on the ssf necropolis crafting grind, cuz I started late, and was thinking about going for some max es items. Glad this info came before I did.
It would be nice for Quality if the Harvest option (like "quality increases attacks speed/crit chance") turned into "More" too...
That chisel change reminds me my first time in PoE - I've never scoured maps before applying chisels. As a result I put stone hammer in the loot filter, used whetstones to get 20% stone hammer and did vendor recipe for bunch of chisels. Then learned how it works with normal, magic and rare... oof.
You know what GGG could add? Vendor recipe for corrupted (like 8 mods) maps - chisels + some Vaal Orbs. That would work like socketing/linking now where you can't use orbs directly on corrupted items, but rather use crafting station and pay additional Vaal Orbs for the craft.
Technically, essence life can roll up to 96, meaning with the hybrid you can get up 124 life.
Love the chisel changes
Yeah, no more rolling maps and then realizing you forgot to quality them...
Oh snap, that means it steers away from heavy reliance on defensive auras and just makes them another layer of defense if you want to invest in it leaving more room for other dmg alternatives. +++ melee ppl are a bit happier now as it boosts their weapons to a more comfortable power. And I'm guessing there's another "hidden" not yet discovered perk to this new quality power that we're not thinking off atm.
GGG has such good brains. I've never really been overly disappointed with any of their decisions ever. It's a very very fine and delicate line to balance on making interesting and engaging things while not spoiling and making everything too convenient leading to boredom and cheap satisfaction. I really appreciate and respect the risk they constantly take bringing us ideas and mechanics that might not always be universally liked or understood but they sure shoot their shots without much fear. Fear is the mind killer and risk is life.
I welcome our new Whetstone economy.
love love love the chisel change
I hope to see new ward bases. Combined with the more quality, that will be absolutely disgusting. 😂
Personally I hate buff totems for melee mostly on an aesthetic level. I guess it makes sense and feels good to use a utility spell to apply exposure to an enemy, but being a melee fighter that needs to summon this totem guy, who slaps things for zero damage, because it somehow gives ME extra damage just feels immersion breaking.
Either way it's a nerf that GGG peddles as a buff, no doubt the entire patch notes will be like this too.
@@Hooga89 I'd love to go cloud watching with you
@@Hooga89 Might wanna dial back the pessimism a bit since all we have right now is some paranoid schizophrenic evidence about dead totems in video clips
i said htis before, and i will say this every time, totems should not be mandatory for melee builds. ancestral totems were a massive mistake, and another reason why melee doesnt feel good to play.
Those melee totems do like 5 mil per and you summon 3 maximum, thats 15 mil alone, not even counting vaal warchief (which is another 7 mil).
The minions themselves do a significant amount of damage but their issue is 1. Casting them 2. They die too quickly, so people annoying panopticon (which doesnt really change much tbh).
And ofc, the buffs they provide give the most damage yeah.
What does this do to sustaining scrolls? i normal sell quality items for them rather than picking them up.
Act 1-2 might be tigher there
You can vendor transmutes for scrolls
what you might've not considered is that instead of new tiers of mods on those boots, the quality might be affecting the mod values similar to how quality on jewelery can (low chance but who knows)
If other item slots outside of body armour are also getting better bases, life stacking builds with The Apostate are looking SPICY. Especially given the supposed buff to flat life rolls shown on the boots
I think ephemeral edge trickster will receive bigger boost from this change, unless it is nerfed of course
I think ppl overestimate it and apostate being the rare drop from uber meaning it will be ovepriced. If price doesn't matter sure. It's not like your t4 unique drop tho
@@divinityaiApostate is not that rare, I dropped 3 in 10 ish runs.
What do you mean better bases? I thought its only a quality buff?
@@telarionx9887Trickster himself will be indirectly giga buffed, not just that build. Scaling es/eva through your gear is such a strong thing in this game. And it multiplies with the ascendancy.
Essence mod gives you up to 96, which means the highest would be 124 life. They probably just changed the mod from flat evasion to % evasion.
Is it possible the quality changes are going to affect all rolls on an item? Including the life rolls? Would seem quite op, but could partially explain the life role on boots being so high.
Those boots only have 6% quality though. 89 X 1.06 is nowhere near that much.
@garhong9125 yeah, but it could be a new hybrid + t1 flat life + 6%
inb4 we get some method of summoning totems on melee hit. That would be really cool, as long as most of the damage increase from totems was moved somewhere else. I think it'd be fine for them to still buff the player a bit, but the huge DPS multiplier they currently are is a bit busted.
No mention of the Veiled mod for hybrid life? I know it doesn't answer the whole value (i.e. either the flat max has to have gone up, or the veiled hybrid has gone up, or both), but it does provide both %evasion and flat life, which you seem to say doesn't exist.
the maximum base defences on stealth boots is 220 and to achieve 318 evasion rating the calculation must have been 220* 1.06 from quality = 233.2 and after the boots have 30% explicit evasion rating modifier but that does not add up to 318 still. the only way to achieve 318 is to add quality number to the % inc evasion rating = 36%. 233.2 * 1.36 = 317.152. this means that they have changed the rounding of numbers. so after decimal place if there is even 0.1 it will round up to the next whole number. this can also mean that prices of adorned jewels will be lower and you will not be screwed if you get a 149% adorned. is this a stretch? I couldn't figure the numbers on the life mod tho.
doesn't mean adorned anything. Rounding works in every aspect differently
there's no life / stun mod?
On THIS pair of boots. The point is it isn't a hybrid mod that adds up to this 121 life boots. The current highest tier of solo life is 89.
I said there was something hidden in that Harvest video and people said I was crazy
all of this sounds exciting leveling melee always been so bad
That quality change seems rather bold move. I wonder if the plan is to move power from auras into items or are we to expect to have some difficulty ramp again.
if the idea is to move the power from auras to items, the power need to be good enough to make up for it. the issue is, even if they do that, it will still screw up builds that use "utility" uniques that already have miserably low stats to begin with.
@@marcosdhelenouniques should be build enabling and not just best in slot for XXX problem. There should always be drawback for going unique over near perfect rare.
@@marcosdhelenoThats why you wont play lightning coil on any build.
SO quality being multiplicative also works for alternate quality, in theory, right? Meaning you can modify your quality through harvest for crit (for example) and get really high base crit, right?
Thats actually a really good question, Im not sure ab that and they made it seem like it only works for just damage.
@@GE_Photon_Lord is that how you understood it? They say "quality now acts like a more multiplier". Shouldn't that be true for any kind of quality? Just speculation but that would be a cool thing to add. That means both phys and ele melee weapons would get buffed (and crit wands with the Sanctum helmet)
@@Doucze I mean I didnt think of that. I thought alternative qualities are some special mods that are set in stone. X% ele damage per Y qual is an enchant with a set rule that should not obey the normal ruling.
But I hope im wrong, because if this is not true, then no one would ever use the harvest quality option, since it will be weaker. Or maybe just hexblast, you would still want that quality.
@@GE_Photon_Lord Yeah I didn't think about it like that. You're probably right, but.... hopium? :D
@@Doucze The quality from heist should be better now tho. I dont expect them to increase it because its an enchant, but these ones multiply stats. And if the base stats are already multiplied, that means the boost from heist quality will be bigger as well.
I never had a issue with melee totems in fact I'm quite fond of them I like there buffs because it give melee builds a little breathing room and you never needed to invest to much into them since there mostly utility anyway
the issue is that they are mandatory links/skill bar slots that pretty much just make you equal in power to builds that don't need them and only for like the 1-2 seconds they are alive or you are still near them. it's just not fun to have to stop what you are doing to spawn the totems to be able to deal with a rare every 1-2 screens in a map + being absolutely necesary for bosses which you already are at a disadvantage by being a melee character. you have to stop attacking just to dodge/position and then the totems die, so u have to stop attacking again to re-spawn them or have no dmg or attack speed. if you are rich enough that ur build ONLY needs the totem buffs for pinnacle bosses then its not a big deal, but for 99% of the time playing a melee build u need totems spawned to feel like a real build. i think that it'd be way better if the totems just followed you like a minion or like as an attachment to your character so you don't have to constantly re-spawn them during maps would be a lot better, but still doesnt change that without the totems u essentially are half a build. mostly it comes down to the power fantasy of being a melee build is that u are the boss who rushes in and fights like a badass, having to be weak without summoning the dumb little digletts and constantly worrying about their uptime/buff cycling is just so much hassle for no reason when other builds dont have any of those problems
I hope they lean into the Melee Totem archetype more as its own unique thing (Like Ballista Totems or Spell Totems). As good as a Strength stacking Brutus Lead Sprinkler can be in the end game, the archetype takes so long to get going despite having such an abundance of different Skill and Support Gems to use. One change I would like to see is the removal (or heavy reduction) in stacking Less Damage / Less Attack Speed effects when used with melee. Hierophant is fine with their Spell Totems and arguably very powerful, but the melee totems get absolutely shafted if you want to play "build your own totem" with Earthbreaker Support and possibly Multi Totem Support (21% less damage and 30% less attack speed, plus you're playing one link down because of the support gem). Not to mention how many unique items are out there to support a totem build.
Saw the lack of totems on the cyclone build but thought I was grasping at straws, didn't even notice the dead totems around. I was already planning on not rolling melee this league like I have the past 4 leagues, but if they buff melee then I donno.. Def not doing boneshatter again unless they add changes to Delve, but see no reason why they would.
how does catalysts work now?
you can get more with essences, but ya point is that its flat evasion not %
I was about to say this. Boots can roll up to 124 life with T1 hybrids + up to 96 via Deafening Essence of Greed.
2:30 is it 1% universally on uniques? that doesn't seem right, they said it's based on ilvl, doesn't matter the rarity, no?
what if base has unique implicit isntead of explicit
I really hope that stun related stuff that isn't *Immutable Force* should be buff by a lot.
how can melee totems be gone, if they were never "there" to begin with?
Oh my god, it's happening. It's the melee league everybody. Bleed Gladiators rise up!
So they remove totem buffs (a guess) and they will nerf melee skills on top of that? thats pretty cool lmao.
Seems like tehy gonna remove power from defensive auras and put them into equimpment
Insane Trickster stonks, if we get a new hybrid base that has equally higher base defenses as the new es base compared to Vaal Regalia, plus 30% more defenses, that could mean some absolutely bazonkers stat sticks for Trickster's Escape Artist node. Right now a perfect Sadist Garb can get to around 2.5k evasion and 550 es, with these new changes I think it could easily surpass 3k evasion and maybe up to 700 es, which is quite the buff.
I was gonna play Hiero mana Spark but this is making me want to play Trickster, maybe even a melee Trickster depending on the changes.
That would get giga nerfed, a gg chest already gives so much. Also idk why ppl keep saying we get new bases, we shouldnt get new bases? You should also take into account a potential Grace nerf (or you dont play it anymore at all). I think thats still a net buff for trickster in particular, but wont be THAT big.
Nvm, I just noticed a new name on the es base. Hmm, I hope trickster wont get the nerf hammer then. ☹️
@@GE_Photon_Lord I'm convinced it won't, especially since these base changes have far more than one such case. Double armour from chest from Jugg for example.
But yeah maybe in future leagues it will get nerfed again, but for this league I doubt it.
@@lorf9303 To be fair tho, they cant really nerf him due to this, because its a global buff to everyone and he should have an option to remove grace like any others. Plus he isnt really known for damage anyway, now he feels more rewarding for not abusing double corrupted coils and what not.
hope they add alternate quality to weapons and armours too it would be a game changer also 100% quality as well maybe even 200 (Random if krangled
I actually mentioned to Octavian (before he started working for GGG) that I wish that they would change weapon quality to buff the implicit modifier on the weapon. So 20% Quality on a 40% increased elemental damage weapon would give you 48% increased elemental damage.
If you gave armor implicit mods, you could do the same there.
@@NemisCassander if they manage to achieve this at least proportion like they did with weapons of double efficiency on modifiers strategy of the game would become more gear decision make while you can use the tree to build towards more possibilities
GGG needs to be careful with the numbers on eva/es chestpieces. Trickster can already scale some pretty mundane numbers to the moon.
And I am all here for it. :)
engineers orbs maybe back ?
My guess these buffs are there to reduce the impact of ancestor totem nerf that is likely to happen.
30% inc eva + 13% stun hybrid
Damn doesn't Emperor's Vigilance get 1000% armor/ES?
WAS HOLY RELIC OF CONVICTION NERFED?
Delve league starter?
I'm probably just dumb but how did it go from 130% + 20% = 150% in 3.24 but then you said it'll be 230% up to 276% in 3.25, I guess I don't get where it doubled?
Someone else put the equation and I didn't know the 150% would also then be added with 100% to 250% in it's current state.
I really don't like fossil hunting, but for SSF I'm going to have delve on my tree now to try to get some perfect fossils and hunt for 30% quality weapons if I make some phys attack builds
You might also want to heist for the 60% quality base if its drop rate and stats don't change.
In SSF, I've found Tujen to be a better source of fossils for me than delve (since I hate delve).
I wonder if the new bases was because necro crafting caused influx of perfect items into the market
Marohi Erqi incoming?
I love you so much
Hmmm, never played armorstacker before. Looks like this league will be good time to try it out.
Massive nerf to armor stackers actually. Most of their armor comes from stacking aura effect and converting grace with iron reflexes. Auras are probably getting nerfed and this is the compensation.
@@2Chiangs base armors should be mental with multiplicative quality. Or was it just for weapons?
@@2Chiangs Where did you see these things you mention here? Where are these armour stacker nerfs? Only Determination is nerfed in one of the videos?
@@doomzx8284 yup. It's most likely both grace and determination nerf, which results in at least 15% loss in everything for armor stacker. And since most armor stacker items are either unique or ES based, the base item buff doesn't benefit us
@@linemat7887 I have a video of 35 mirrors build this league on my channel, armour stacking for years now, I really hope it's not giga nerfed ^^ determination could be the only nerfed aura also because it's really strong for almost any build early/mid game.
it's not even top base, by art you can say it would be new vaal regalia analog with 270-300 es base with possible minimum 84 level req. And other new bases.
I just hope they don't over do it will the totem changes. Those buffs are huge damage increases to many builds. If they say remove those to make totems or what ever they will be feel better... where are we getting that damage back then?
imagine if we got warchief/protector blessing/cry that could be automated. so the same power as before, just no summoning wacky wavy inflatable tube guys that blow up at sight of an enemy.
is bro wearing a lightning strike awp
MELEE LEAGUE
solve totems with autobomber for them, maybe automation would do
First melee league start ever?
i hope melee keep same damage or get more. it only took 2 years of sadness
Here comes the auto totem gem....
Why not let quality affect local elemental damage too
Edps bows have been weak for a while
Minor correction but there's actually been a dead totem in all 4 teasers
Wray about flasks
Great video. Will stay tuned (which means refresh every 2 hours).
60% quality heist weapons rise up!
:O
I thought quality was already multiplicative. How did it work actually ?
before (base dmg + added damage)*(1+increased dmg+quality)
now (base dmg + added damage)*(1+increased dmg)*(1+quality)
Now, if we do it before for some cheap example 100-100 dmg with 100-100 added damage, 200% increase and 30 quality we get:
Before (100+100)*(3+0.3)= 660
Now (100+100)*(3)*(1.3)= 780
These are absolutely random numbers i came up with just for example, don't kill me for them.
@@magicka789 I was afraid that this was how it worked. Thanks !
@@aryotron7256 Ur welcome
@@magicka789 thanks for this, his explanation for %150 to 276% made no sense to me, because it wasn't just 150% before it was 250%, right? Given the +1 in the equation?
I think you made a mistake when say its 230% baseline dmg on the new patch for the weapon? they only mentioned quality is multiplicative not the % phys affix. It goes from 150% on current patch to 156% on the new one.
They would need to change DMG formula for that to happen, i don't say that is impossible, but hightly improbable.
Qual is now a multiplier to the Armor/Eva/ES/Phys damage of the weapon as the last step. It is a true multiplier to the base after explicits. You can prove this by looking at the video about it. They show a armor piece with 1315 armor that has % inc armor on it and if you just 1.2x the 1315 you get the new item they show off.
A Spine bow on live with 20 qual and triple t1 prefixes and no other mods has 751.1 dps. With new qual it will now have 852.6 dps.
As for Allure im pretty sure he explained it wrong its just a 1.2x(or 1.3 if 30 qual) of the 0 qual item base flat phys. So a perfect Allure with 0 qual has 113-267 and it will now be 135-320 with 20 qual in 3.25
i LOVE YOU
3 more seconds and coulda made the threshold but still puts out quality content. respect sirgog
if they remove melee totems I might actually play melee again
I sense that they will eventally nerf melee..whatever they will give us back I doubt t will compensate for the buff ancestors totems give...it will be a net negative Im sure of that..
I think you forgot to take your SSRI's this morning
Ancestors totems was a drug
Guess I'm going back to slammers rather than casters this season.
Or the quality affects the mods as well now.
like if you take the max roll of base life and max roll of the hybrid and multiply it by the quality, what does it come out to?
🍺
Wrath span boots life can go to 121 if quality applies to life now (and other defensive stats). It is 114*1.06=120.84 or 115*1.06=121.9
quality hasnt changed mechanic outside its a 0-30% multiplier to the base instead of 0-30% increased. It still only effects phys damage, ES, Arm, Eva. Explicits arent directly scaled unless it buffs the base armor/eva/es/phys damage. you can see this in the video GGG posted about it. No explicits changed when they qual the boots from 0 to 8% just the total evasion.
As gog said though, it's not life + hybrid life because there's no flat evasion. So it would currently top out at 89, not 117.
Sirgog didn't mention the hidden placed totem in the teaser :(
Do you work for ggg? You could easily be a presenter for updates for them. Soothing voice, well structured, easy to follow. And best of all your speed of talking is perfect and pauses for breathing, changing topics are just spot on. A natural!
If this applies to flasks too... oh boy am I starting a pathfinder next season.
Pathfinder doesn't need any change, since he can have 100% uptime almost on all flasks regardless
it doesnt. "In Path of Exile: Settlers of Kalguur, Cartographer's Chisels, Blacksmith's Whetstones, and Armourer's Scraps now provide different amounts of quality based on item level" and the multiplicative stuff was the same since they mention specificly armor and phys weapons.
Delve league starter …..
what in gods name is that thumbnail
Cant wait for 3.25!
It would be nice if there was a T17 rare tier for items. Which could give a full range of top tier bases. It would obviously need the extra stat capability though.
