Phyriel Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 Just got it from stronghold adventure: Gives 1 per rest dimensional shift +12 reflex Gave it to my rogue and i gotta say it works soooo GOOD, leaves a stun beam behind me that stun for 5 sec, with rogue high accuracy it lands on everything
MaxQuest Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) Yeah, Dimensional Shift has it's funny uses. Wizard summoning Essential Phantom behind enemies ranks. Shifting to it. Ciphers casting echo on phantom. And wizard shifting back. Edited March 5, 2016 by MaxQuest PoE1 useful stuff: attack speed calculator, unofficial patch mod, attack speed mechanics, dot mechanics, modals exclusivity rules PoE2 useful stuff: community patch, attack speed mechanics, enemy AR and defenses
lantzk Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) I prefer the Swaddling Sheet, it procs Overwhelming Wave in multiple directions when you're critically hit...once per encounter. It's hilarious. Edited March 5, 2016 by lantzk
Boeroer Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) But doesn't the Wave also hit your team members? Edited March 5, 2016 by Boeroer Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
TheMetaphysician Posted March 5, 2016 Posted March 5, 2016 (edited) But doesn't the Wave also hit your team members?I think normally it does. But the one from the cloak doesn't! It is the best stronghold item I know of, when you put it on a low deflection character. I put it on my low deflection monk with shod in faith, and that cloak goes off every fight and pretty much wins every fight it goes off in. Lots of damage, long duration stun, hits usually all of the enemies. It is now officially my favorite item. One time it went off when my monk was charmed, though. Killed my party and didn't touch the bad guys. Oh, and the wave reflects off walls. In small rooms it absolutely murders everything. Edited March 5, 2016 by TheMetaphysician 1
Boeroer Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Wow that's great. I didn't even put it on because I thought it will always stun my buddies. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
Boeroer Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Oh - this will be so great on a rogue with Deep Wounds: Overwhelming Wave does crush damage and therefore will apply Deep Wounds. Stun + crush damage + raw damage = supersweet! Edited March 6, 2016 by Boeroer Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods

I also got this cloak, its imba, i actually put it on my wizard tank as I don't rly like keeping an eye on all his defensive buffs, when cloak effect goes off I got instant indicator "Oh my wizard tank got hit? some buff must've wore off"
TheMetaphysician Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Oh - this will be so great on a rogue with Deep Wounds: Overwhelming Wave does crush damage and therefore will apply Deep Wounds. Stun + crush damage + raw damage = supersweet! It also seems to apply sneak attack and deathblows damage mods. So yeah, great on a rogue. Edit: nevermind, I was misremembering this.

Boeroer Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 It's still cool cool with the Deep Wounds. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
lantzk Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 (edited) Yeah, I was surprised that it was Foe only too! But I imagine that's because it would be the worst item otherwise. I mean, I already am barely able to stand Elryn's Jacket, given how frequently it blinds/dazes the wearer/your teammates (headcanon -- I'm so fabulous that even I can't see my own defects!). Edited March 6, 2016 by lantzk
Boeroer Posted March 6, 2016 Posted March 6, 2016 Hehe - but that should be fixed soon. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
lantzk Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Will it? I know proccing on beneficial AoEs will be fixed, but I assumed the friendly fire was intentional. Eyestrike is an area effect, if it procs off an enemy that hits you in melee, it's guaranteed to hit the wearer as well. Similarly, if it procs off a ranged enemy, and one of your allies is in melee with said enemy, your ally will be hit by eyestrike. Maybe it's supposed to be like Overwhelming Wave on the cloak? If so, I don't think I've seen that reported anywhere.
Boeroer Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 But cipher's Eyestrike is foe only. Why should the jacket be different? I'm pretty sure that's a bug - given how late in the game you find that jacket. Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
TheMetaphysician Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Hey, it does get the damage bonuses from Sneak Attack and Deathblows! Apparently I was right the first time. Very powerful, especially in combo with that priest's painful interdiction that you are such a fan of. (I've taken your advice on that strategy.) Edited March 7, 2016 by TheMetaphysician
lantzk Posted March 7, 2016 Posted March 7, 2016 Lol shows how much I play cipher these days. I'll write it up.

Very powerful, especially in combo with that priest's painful interdiction that you are such a fan of. (I've taken your advice on that strategy.) Yeah - I am a big fan of that. It's so good as opening move (after you buffed yourself & the party with +10 ACC from Inspiring Radiance ). Most Alpha Strikes from cipher will hit after that. Like Phantom Foes. And voilá: you have Death Blows in a huge area. Edited March 7, 2016 by Boeroer Deadfire Community Patch: Nexus Mods
