There are plenty of builds that can facetank vaal's smash.I have no build that can facetank Vaal Oversoul
I have no build that can facetank Vaal Oversoul
damn i know its not the place but seriously i tried like 5-6 buillds with exilebuddy and all of them die at 75 rare maps occasionally. Thats why cant level to 100Even my old eb mom tanky mjol discharger died.
@Tonyx
I know, it deals around 4k phys and 4k fire damage. When it crits, it's at least 8k each. So, area level is lvl 60.
Assuming you have 75% phys and fire reduction at this level if you just quest through. That still requires 4k life to survive. I doubt you get phys. reduction to 75% and it's not easy to get 4k life at that level. Evading the smash manually is simple... but unfortunately teh bot doesn't do that. So there's a high chance of dying there.
Completely incorrect.If you dodge, you don't take damage at all
If you pop a ruby flask - before the animation or is that only for dominus? - you get your resis up to 85%. From the 8k crit fire damage you are still dealt 1.5k fire damage.
To get 75% physical reduction on a 8k crit hit you'll need 240k armour. Let's say you have 20k armour at lvl 60 at vaal, that will give 20% DR. Hence you'll hit you for 6400 life .
So, with 20k armour and 85% fire resis you'll still receiv 7900 damage -> insta-death
Normal hits are survivable.
Wiuth 85% fire resis you'll only get 600 fire damage and with 20k armour the phys. DR is about 1/3, hence 2666 damage. A total of around 3300 damage.
This is a Quest Plugin, not a I don't want to do bosses because I'll get killed in hardcore because I cannot face tank something.I still think that act bosses should be an optional check box especially when you play HC.
Because.As you say, it's quest plugin. Why not offer to options until which quests one would go (or which optional quests to do)?
As for the math:

The Damage of Vaal Oversoul is pretty simple to calculate. Go facetank Vaal and let him hit out. Note how much damage you've taken. Repeat it a few time to get average damage.
Then turn on purity of fire which will bring your fire resis up a bit more. Repeat.
Since we know damage is 50/50 physical/fire, based on those few differences in percentage of fire resis you can calculate how much that made a difference in damage. Then you can calculate what the total fire damage would be and physical damage would be the same. So there's no reason to not go with about ~4k fire and ~4k physical damage with normal hit on merciless.
It's all tony. I'm just jerking off in the corner with ma $$$. Thanks to alcor and tony's hive module. Trading's never been so easy, when PoE gets auction house we're going to dominate.You missed the part about physical damage theory in this game. Tbh, I never died vs. vaal, maybe once because I didn't check my gear frequently enough to be sure of it but it's something about it.
Vaal is weak, terribly weak.
1 normal & 1 seething/bubbling flask do the work. If your dps is too low, then you can only blame yourself and not the plugin.
// EDIT //
Also, take note that I'm/we are in the process of making QP an entire BOT, so the work on this one is slowly going down since most of the logic is working, only extra things to do.
The build is a major factor in progression in this game, if the build is weak, it won't go far in the questline.
