8:11 I think the main reason this item does not used often is mostly because rare helmet is just far better then most of the unique item is the item itself is not build defining, and on top of that, you can miss out up to 18% phy taken as other damage source mod witch is a very important and rare mod that are crucial to the build defense nowadays.

As en enjoyer of off-meta builds and unique interactions, I can't express how much I love this series. For once, KZread recommendation was on point. Great work!

I love this series! Pretty nifty helmet actually, I never gave it a second look.

I like these Forgotten Uniques videos. Always nice to get ideas for build arounds.

Great series! I have always been making my own builds (since like, when we had 2 acts), generally being inspired by whatever cool unique triggered me to build around it. It has failed me a lot of times but has given me loads of fun over the years. Still most of the unique items you discuss here I have not come across at all and these videos give me so many thoughts on stuff I would like to try out. Thank you! I look forward to more.

You make such good informative content. There's just SO MUCH STUFF in path of exile, and you're really good at picking things out people might not know about, breaking those things down like a good teacher would, and presenting those broken down pieces!

If the helmet was lower rarity i would be instantly wearing it in my current ssf series. Its a good helm thats overshadowed by eldritch implicits or double influenced helms.

Very nice series! Interesting!

Would be cool for the purpose of these types of videos if you included a PoB either in the video going over it or just mentioning it with all of the synergistic elements in it. I mean if it's not too much work or if it's worth doing. 😊

This is the first Forgotten Unique I'm going to track down and use. They synergy with all the items you mentioned makes it seem pretty bloody amazing.

One unique i would like to see is: Cerberus Limb. I don't actually know if it is 'forgotten' But I quite like it's unique modifiers. ... Also cause delve item

These videos are perfect for someone like me who likes off meta builds but doesn't keep up with all of the unique changes (or skips a league now and then) lol

Every time I watch a video by this channel I’m shocked by the production value and seemingly effortless scripting/ability to convey meaningful information. GGG should let you narrate the patch notes

Considering this helmet in a PoB for a character investing into arctic armour, with tempered by war full conversion. The other strong contender is crown of the inward eye.

The Crown/Aegis/Melding setup is really cool and seemingly very powerful in a vacuum, but I think it falls victim to the same problem a lot of other defensive setups do - it requires too much itemization/passive budgeting. Only way to build a meaningful amount of damage for T17s with that setup is either through absurd investment or utilizing one of a small handful of meta damage skills, and even the latter may not be particularly cheap. A lot of defensive layers have fallen victim to this budget creep over the years and is kinda why defenses are fairly stale imo. This is also why meta skills are meta - they require the least investment to make damage.

interesting stuff! it would be cool if you could do revers chill boneshatter/trauma with the chilled ground i might have to test that.

@paulb5571

A few years back I actually asked a question on the Boneshatter FAQ that was responded to by GGG. Specifically I was wondering if the self damage done by Boneshatter crit and be used to self-freeze. The answer was a unfortunate no. I intended to use Winterheart alongside Juggernaut's cannot be slowed below base speed to keep moving while frozen and get a 10% life regen per second. Additionally, the self damage cannot be converted, though is affected by "damage taken as" modifiers. So you could use the items in the video to mitigate the self damage of Boneshatter to make it more survivable.

Such a great series

Best PoE content we are getting so far! Thank you very much! Additionally I think this a example of a great unique that is not used because of the current game constraints, like needing to cap spell supression because of T17, lack of options for effective phys damage mitigation ( you always resort to phys mitigation with the crafted mods), and still have decent offensive power. The game difficulty increases while the items are getting left behind or nerfed and this breaks the build diversity.

I agree with this, they could do with a unique balance pass each league release, even if it's only a handful of items being updated it would be a good idea

Great video keep it up

Hey I was wondering if you could perhaps make a video (or a series) where you go through your thought process when creating a build. One thing I feel is lacking is ressources for people who would like to start creating their own builds instead of just following a guide to a T. Perhaps starting by skill choice, then explaining how to chose the ascendency, or simply how scale the build both offensively and defensively as to neither be dying all the time, nor dealing no damage ?

Awesome as always. Would be interested in your take on pyroshock clasp. It seems a viable way to mitigate phys for evasion elemental chars outside of the classical ways of veiled modifiers/lightning coil/cloak of flame/eldritch implicits. Could be useful on some builds to make use of the free slots that creates in chest or helmet? Ty for your content, helped me to understand the game better

@dreamcore_gg

29 күн бұрын

Pyroshock is a cool belt but its main issue is the prerequisite of needing to ignite/shock enemies to convert their damage, which is also a problem shared by Kaom's Binding(needing enemies to be nearby). Once you have a setup which always shocks/ignites, this is not going to be a problem for the majority of gameplay but occasionally you will just get hit by a non-shocked/ignited enemy and take a lot of extra damage. At the same time, the amount of conversion is good on its own but not enough alone to be your only defence agaist physical damage, meaning you will need another method of mitigation. Theoretically armour is the go-to solution in this case as it's going to mitigate more damage against the resulting lower hit of physical damage. However, in the case of Pyroshock which lends itself to evasion builds, you don't have a lot of armour scaling on a typical setup, and the go-to is damage taken as, which has anti-synergy with enemy damage conversion mods as it's calculated on a different layer.

Quality content!

hell yeah man I never forgot about this

You answer your own question as to why this isnt used as much as it should be. Its T1 rarity. If it were Tier 3/4 it would be an easy SSF staple, but its simply too rare to happen across, and not build enabling enough to bother trying for with say Tainted Mythics. Also Gravecrafting.

i love this series, extemly in deepth and nerdy.

This Helmet is so good for Casters, ngl.

Uniques nowadays tend to need to fulfill specific niche to see more uses in endgame given how crazy you can make a rare item for the slot. Should add another line that says all damage is taken as cold damage. Now it has a powerful niche and people will use it. Disregard melding, fire, lightning and chaos res, only stack cold and max cold, phys as cold. Balance it out with -3% max cold res, remove the armour and chilled ground thing.

@lifeloverNorris

I need a Flicker CoC build in my life.

wonder if there's an lightning strike skill for aegis+helmet with guardian or necromancer to make use of algor mortis

The one problem is I hate to be stationary. I lprefer squishy characters with high single target damage than tanky with low dps.

I hope to see more Ward gear next league. Cureently we can get a lot of flat chaos damage that nobody is utilizing at all, mainly because Ward is a terrible defence layer only working for hits and you will need to use ward gear. So ES is better right? Kinda but in terms of raw damage ward is superior... But then it is really difficult getting proper life/es to fight off degen, and when your ward breaks.

@dreamcore_gg

More support for the ward mechanic would be awesome, but realistically they would need to make a heavy expansion on that system in terms of changes such as adding ward gear to core drop pool/adding new ward bases, adding new ward uniques and most importantly, adding ward clusters to the passive skill tree

I guess I am that old and remember in a league this item was pricefixed by scammers and a lot of people actually got scammed thinking it is a very valuable item

Fantastic series, honestly forgot that any of these existed (for good reason, most of them are vendor trash or serve a purpose only before endgame). Like the helmet doesn't even guarantee a chilled ground proc when hit, thats so bad. Actually thats why this unique is so bad: its only good traits require you to be standing still or getting hit. Very very bad in modern one shot poe

I thought i know every unique, turns out not 😅

Isn’t there an item or something that makes you act as stationary while you move?

Faithguard when?

hey, can you cover some ascendancies in a new series please? some are really poorly explained and on reddit, one half claims one thing, the other half claims its the opposit. for example, untiring. what does the 40% increased life regen count towards? the 1.5% of phys prevented, what counts towards the prevented pool? does self inflicted count? would there be a way to turn chaos damage into phys damage on forbidden rite to make yourself immortal? it says 1.5% of 10 seconds of prevented damage. does that mean it only starts 10 seconds after the first phys damage was prevented? do you only get one recovery instance every 10 seconds? or 1 every second? or one every hit? im having a real tough time judging wether that ascendancy is really really good or just mediocre at best with lots of investment into recoup and regen.

@dreamcore_gg

Ай бұрын

40% increased life regeneration rate increases all life regen by 40%(only life regen, not recoup, not leech etc.). Prevented physical damage is any form of damage mitigation. This will typically be(but not limited to) physical damage reduction(armour/APDR), fortify(less taken), spell suppression(less taken from spells) etc. but also includes block(blocked hits are prevented damage). It doesn't include things like Steelskin(this is not prevention, but instead just a different resources absorbing the damage) or Petrified Blood's delayed damage mechanic. There's no way to take chaos damage as physical damage in the game at the moment. The regeneration from Untiring starts immediately upon prevention, and lasts for 10 seconds. You can think of it as similar to how recoup functions with rolling 'instances' of regeneration which stack on top of eachother. A new instance is created whenever physical damage is prevented and there's no cap on how much regeneration you can get.

@dervakommtvonhinten517

Ай бұрын

@@dreamcore_gg im confused, it says that much life is regenerated per second, not that the regeneration lasts 10 seconds. if i regenerate that much life each second for 10 seconds, then as long as i take physical damage, my leech would be insane as long as i got enough damage mitigation (armour stacker + fortify + doppelgänger + endurance charges). regarding 40% regeneration, most people claimed that it would also work for recoup, since recoup is supposedly life regeneration over 4 seconds. are you sure that recoup doesnt benefit from the 40% buff?

A huge buff to this item would be a rarity downgrade. If it was more accesable, it would be easier to get good corruptions on it and making it more valuable

This series just makes me sad. GGG just adds shit to the game and then never cares about it again. We care more about the gear than them. PoE 1 is just a massive case of neglect that's hard to ignore when the devs are too lazy to nerf DD properly while buffing other skills. I quit this game until they fix the bloat and stop balancing around Ben and Nick's opinion so they can cheese the next Gauntlet. This game became the most try-hard shit and it makes me scowl just thinking about it. "just ignore the community and play SSF." Sorry, I have a life.

I think that they should put spell suppression on the armor wheel as well (maybe like 5% instead)
