Minor correction to something you mentioned earlier in the video: Cast While Channeling doesn't actually have a cooldown, it just has a casting interval. It doesn't interact with cooldown reduction unless the skill linked to it has its own cooldown (in which case you could conceivably try to bring the cooldown of a skill lower by enough to fit it in a shorter casting interval breakpoint).
Thanks for this. I was wondering if I missed a change in this mechanic. I wish they would allow CWC to scale with anything. It should really scale with cast speed, imo.
I never got to play it with the awakened spell cascade for more overlaps (I believe got nerfed) but maybe with the 100% increased aoe the build should work without awakened gems I'd hope
@@nicholasfigueiredo3171 not that there is much time to get em if they don't extend it but its seggregated by class, so I'd assume you fulfill the requirements as normal (be a witch to yoink witch ascendencies) it will work just fine. thats how you get the hidden ones as well, like you gotta be a witch to use nine lives passive
If one of this ascendancies doesn't bring back Saqawal's flock tornado pooper build, i'm not playing and i will be very sad(50% increased chance of crying)
btw the Arcane Harbinger tooltips haven't been updated for the Arcane Surge change - it says spell damage on wiki / poedb tooltips but it's cast speed, since it's derived from the AS buff.
Very excited for this, especially after seeing how much mayhem its scope seems to be. Being limited to one month leaves me with questions though, hopefully they have something planned after, or extend it with further wonkiness.
Getting CDR wrong makes you lose damage. There is basically a hard cap on attacks per second and triggers per second. 40% will get you to the cap without having to mess with gear. So you'll be able to cap other things like crit change much easier
Prismatic burst comes to mind when I think of cooldown recovery like that. Huge node for people that want ti mess around with that otherwise forgotten support
I think the Mana and ES recovery rate node is multiplicative and works for all sources of recovery including on-hit and possibly leech. That's a pretty solid prerequisite for the arcane surge-like node. If you really wanted to go a troll mana-nuke build, this could make for a pretty good recovery asset so the downtime isn't as annoying. Maybe something like negative lightning res archmage arcane surge hexblast with shock effect.
I wonder if we will be getting more cdr on the small nodes? two small nodes on that branch could be getting up to 10-12%?? That's 60% on that ascendancy which is a LOT.
It's a shame that the Summon Harbinger skills have a shared maximum of one summoned harbinger. Not only does it mean that taking multiple of the 4-point ascendancy nodes is useless, but it also means that you can't combine the Summon Greater Harbinger skills from the ascendancy with the basic Summon Harbinger skills from the non-upgraded items. There wouldn't be any point for Harbinger of Arcane (that just gives Arcane Surge), but the action speed auras from normal/greater Harbinger of Time have different names, as do the normal/greater Harbinger of Focus's damage reduction buffs, so they might have potentially stacked with each other.
@@sirgog I'm working off of PoEWiki's information. The tooltips for the basic Summon Harbinger skills listed there say maximum 1 summoned harbinger. That line isn't present in the Summon Greater Harbinger skills, but the wiki says the limit is still present regardless.
Just to nitpick about getting 20% cdr on a stygian vise, it's (slightly) easier than you make it sound because the mod also appears as a crusader suffix. Fill prefixes and you have a 1/12 chance to hit 16-20% cdr with a crusader exalt. No need spend juice trying to roll shaper influence if you only want the one influenced mod
IIRC, they are "flask effects", and the mods (eg +25% ele. res.) have a qualifier "for the duration" or something like that on them. Could def be wrong about that tho.
Isn't Harbinger Ascendancy great for Impending Doom? 40% CDR - huge. 100% AOE is MASSIVE, with enough AOE you get additional overlaps with Spell Cascade back.
Immune to shock/curse and chill while channeling will make u immune to ailments with a stormjewel 100% of the time unlike the 50% uptime on focus, id say its a superior node
Doesn't Stormshroud only apply to chance to avoid? This would still have you be shocked, but just not seeing any effect of the shock. Is there another jewel I can't think of? I could see Fulcrum be amazing with a cast while channeling phys to elemental conversion setup to give lucky damage, penetration and extra as random element to support trinity.
Yeah GGG will be running this for 3 months and its fine. I think its an interesting ascendency with middling power but i am sure it will allow for some powerfull builds. The Harby-skills are pretty fine overall but mostly tied to shitty items so this is quite refreshing. Im most looking forward to the Scion one. She should be a gemling and honestly if its good i would love them replacing the current one with it. The current one is pretty shit and boring.
Can we as a community collectively stop calling PoE poe1? Its always has and will be PoE, the 2nd installment needs a number at the end. Thank you, nice video as always man.
Trigger mechanics are a dead archtype due to mana and amount of map modifiers that brick it. Dont bother with builds like CoC, its mot worth at this state of the game
Let PoE1 rest in peace. Now GGG is cannibalizing PoE2 developers for a 1-month event in PoE1, which looks like Settlers of Kalgur 3.0. I think I'll pass.
Yep. I’m really disappointed in how the majority of the community is receiving the poe1 news, ie upset about them focusing on poe2, and accepting of new Poe 1 content… really a shame.
Man can we move on to poe2? Is the majority of the poe community really as dense as they’ve shown over the past week? clinging to the old version of the game that we’ve explored every nook and cranny of, and giving up on the new version of the game that’s still in pre release and has had 2 lifetime patches? Really disappointing and cringe
You are free to play the incomplete, broken, unpatched and unbalanced game that is POE2 as much as you want, no one's stopping you. The new players and a large portion of old players are doing just that. However, some of us-- in particular old-school SSF players-- don't think POE2 is any good and will wait for the full release before giving it a proper go. So we went back to POE1, since that's still the best ARPG ever created. It rather seems you don't understand how any of this works, so throwing a word like "dense" around doesn't do you any good.

I want Harbinger cos i think the fantasy of it is super cool
Agree. May play it on that basis.
Can you imagine having the Harbinger MTX automatically after you ascend and you float around with the blue halo, would be awesome
With the 40% CDR + 100% hex aoe, impending doom with vixen might be on the table again.

I might try Archmage mjolnir again. Main skills are BL of orbiting/shock nova in mjolnir and you cast while channeling lightning warp to move fast.
Love the flavour with this one. Definitely think it won't be on the upper end of power as you said but it's great to see where GGG's minds are at.
how will flesh and flame work for the crangle text? :P
If witch floats like a Harbinger and is blue, I'm totally doing this. Helps that I just followed a CwC build recently :D
Mjolner Witch is on the table for me. Been wanting to do a cast while channel again. Though Ive always going Inquisitor.

great video, thanks for that! when are we looking at the gambler? :)
kinda interested to see the forbidden flame/flesh jewels with the krangled harbi text on em lol.
Would cast on channeling hexblast curse build work with this? Seems it could be fun to try to make a build around.
Don't know much about Wardloop could they possibly use this ascendancy?
Yeah, this could be amazing there
Very very curious if the forbidden jewels give the old nodes or the new ones

The harbies buff your stats and they do transfer to totems for the most part, as long as you're still doing the trigger condition.
