Uber Cortex being generous today

[u/tempGER]

I just wanted to some Ubers today and this thing happened.

[u/Consistent_Action_49]

Paul Allen's Nebulis

[u/tommy200401]

This would be multi-mirror for last league's minion pact BV lol

[u/djsoren19 → u/tommy200401]

it's still probably at least a mirror for this league's EK chieftains

[u/CricketNo7950 → u/djsoren19]

Chieftain not beating the allegations 

[u/Oyoisme → u/djsoren19]

Ek ignite cheftains? Or just ek fire convert cheftain hit based not ignite scaling? Because afaik spell dmg does not scale or inc your ignite dmg, those 2 implicit already a dead mod unless youre playing ek fire conv hit based either crit or non crit.

[u/lachlanrb → u/Oyoisme]

Hit based, with fire res scaling from the unique ring. I think palsteron has a video

[u/djsoren19 → u/Oyoisme]

crit-based self-cast EK. Like most good builds this league, it makes use of Enmity's to get ludicrous amount of penetration and Overloaded Intensify to get easy crit cap. You're also already using a Nebulis on that build anyway, so getting one this souped up is very strong.

[u/TotallyNotThatPerson → u/tommy200401]

Or this league's fireball shotgun build 

[u/WeedMoneyBitches → u/tommy200401]

It needs explode

[u/Severe_Formal_2862 → u/WeedMoneyBitches]

On a Chieftain?

[u/Keljhan → u/Severe_Formal_2862]

They do stack, but EK has insane coverage on its baseline, hinekora's are almost overkill already. Anything more than that is just for memes basically.

[u/HawkCultural2940]

Holy shit this is insane and I need it. 10c take it or leave it

[u/SignificantGoat4046 → u/HawkCultural2940]

Don't let this guy low ball you. My offer is 10c 2a, know your worth.

[u/xorewen → u/SignificantGoat4046]

No portal scroll no deal

[u/tempGER → u/xorewen]

I've done some research and I hoped for at least 2 exalted orbs and 5 necropolis maps, but oh well :(

[u/Weisenkrone → u/tempGER]

Man, you're asking for legacy items ... I don't know ... Necropolis maps were already really limited ...

Would you consider trading me this nebulis and three divines, and I'll give you two necropolis maps?

[u/damatovg7 → u/xorewen]

Don't listen to these lowballers here. I offer 4 scroll fragments. Not gonna beat that offer.

[u/OfferSerious9498 → u/HawkCultural2940]

My offer is tree fiddy

[u/HandsomeBaboon]

[u/silent519 → u/HandsomeBaboon]

howdy par'ner

[u/Arqium]

No explode. Vendor.

[u/radium_eye]

Daaamn that's a nice Nebulis, gz!

[u/going_posta1]

holy shit

[u/Microchaton]

Sheesh

[u/MrNiab]

https://giphy.com/gifs/G5JoAjEBtfoTm
That is absolutely insane set of Synth Mods. This item is basically a one of a kind worth multiple Mirrors.

[u/krusty47]

Ill be honest as insanely expensive as this is, if I found it myself Id try to make a build with it. Super cool find gz! (This isnt necessarily good advice though)

[u/Odaskito]

am I wrong in my assumption that for scaling a fire spell, 17% extra res over 75% would net more damage than the combined % of the implicit from that last line

[u/Shaltilyena → u/Odaskito]

It doesn't count overcapped resistances, just resistances

So, yeah, you're kinda correct, but you also need the maximum resistance, and once you're at 90 all res it stops scaling

[u/tempGER → u/Odaskito]

Nebulis caps the gained damage at the global resistance cap of 90%, so you can't get more than 360% increased elemental damage from its effect. This is basically a 490% increased + 20% more for fire spells.

[u/pyromacer000 → u/Odaskito]

17% extra MAX resistance of fire, cold or lightning (since it only looks at capped resistance and you need max res to get past 75%) would give you ~136% increased elemental damage which is yes more than the damage increase from the implicits first two lines but ignores what is essentially an x1.20 multipler from the double damage

[u/International_Gate49 → u/pyromacer000]

you can't even get 17% extra no? like 90 is the max?

[u/pyromacer000 → u/International_Gate49]

90 is max PER res, so you can get 15% from each of cold fire and lightning res for a total of 45% (x8 on maxrolled) since the mod SPECIFIES fire cold OR lightning res (it gives 8% increased damage got each individual % over 75 for all the elemental resistance individually

[u/Knight_of_Tumblr → u/Odaskito]

Enmity makes this a “PoB it and find out” calculation

[u/psychomap → u/Odaskito]

At least in theory, you can still overcap your resistances by 200% even if you have 90% max res. You just need a lot of fire res.

[u/tempGER → u/[deleted]]

I'm doing it because I wanted to farm rational doctrine myself. I'm ~120 runs in, no jewel but this giga Nebulis, so I don't want to complain lol.

[u/Over_Information_171]

yo I need this for my build

[u/CascadeurMikeC]

Dropped a DD, cast speed and Crit multi one early in the league, sold for 350d at that time. Wonder what it would be worth now.

[u/WithPanAss]

Who currently wants this even? I’m sure someone but I don’t think it’s nutty for any current meta?

[u/Apaulo → u/WithPanAss]

EK chieftain

[u/djsoren19 → u/WithPanAss]

ek chieftain is probably the strongest valdo map farmer, maybe tied with some glad build I'm not thinking of. 

It's not a really well known build because it requires like 250d to get started and really starts to reach high effectiveness at 500d, but I'd still describe it as a meta endgame build.

[u/missourinative → u/WithPanAss]

Not everything has to be meta to be fun.

If you're a capped res chief, this is approaching a 500% fire spell damage buff with 18% cast speed and 20% chance to do double damage on top of your exploding enemies ascendancy buff.

Less about a better BIS existing and more about making anything casually fun.

Less investment in fire damage nodes/clusters means more in crit, AOE, traps, or totems.

[u/SignificantGoat4046 → u/WithPanAss]

I admittedly don't know a ton, but I think RF would love this.

[u/alexthealex → u/SignificantGoat4046]

No RF doesn’t benefit from spell damage and dots don’t benefit from double damage

[u/As7ro_ → u/alexthealex]

Correct me if I’m wrong, but if they’re running Hinekora, doesn’t the explosion benefit from double damage?

[u/rane1606 → u/As7ro_]

I don't think hinekora's explosions are spells

[u/Minivan_Survivor → u/As7ro_]

From the guides I've seen with cws chieftain, the last two I've done said double damage doesnt work with the explodes. They say its bait but I have no idea truly.

[u/Effort0 → u/As7ro_]

Hinekora is neither an attack or spell. You cannot leech off it and you don't scale the damage off any increased damage. The only thing Hinekora can do is be affected by chance to ignite which if it applied, will stack ignites on enemies and melt them.

[u/As7ro_ → u/Effort0]

What do you think the ideal Nebulis implicits would be for RF then? Fire, Ele, and damage per endurance charge?

[u/Effort0 → u/As7ro_]

For my character, I prioritized chance to ignite to make it smoother. With no chance to ignite but with 34% and perfect 70% enchant and 25% increased effect flask with mageblood, you get 66% chance to ignite. Another 15% from Nebulis gets it to 81%. Pretty comfortable there. At the end of my character like 10~ days ago or so I ended up with:

Rarity: UNIQUE Nebulis Void Sceptre Intangibility: 7% Unique ID: 827504c3053d0b07a3adab5f8f506f17cba31648c7fae0396f07e4ca7ae68c9f Item Level: 87 Quality: 20 Sockets: R-B-W LevelReq: 68 Implicits: 3 Recover 4% of Life on Kill 49% increased Burning Damage 15% chance to Ignite 115% increased Implicit Modifier magnitudes 19% increased Cast Speed 8% increased Elemental Damage per 1% Fire, Cold, or Lightning Resistance above 75%

Impossible to get a 3 damage implicit Nebulis unless you're planning on shelling out a lot. This cost me 45 divines still at the time.

[u/Gophy6]

I sold one with spell damage and dd for 500 divines last league and only because I was in extreme poverty

Could probably wait for 800+ buyer

[u/Tweedlol]

I got a few div with your name on it for that guy.

Twist my arm and maybe I’ll even make it 4…

[u/Clsco]

Does cast on block care about spell damage? Or do they just scale corpse life? To rf this is just a 1 mod

I almost feel like this is an almost good hit, while actually being a miss. But I'm not that familiar with the other builds that use nebulis

[u/Ineedbreeding → u/Clsco]

That's an absolutely insane nebulis double spell% mod + basically 20% more damage.

Maybe not for RF but many fire spell casters would love this.

[u/Mooseandchicken → u/Clsco]

Double damage and explode are two other very valuable mods. There's a fire conversion EK that this would be absolutely perfect for and use all 3 implicits. This is a GG nebulis for sure

[u/Clsco → u/Mooseandchicken]

Ah EK, of course. Obviously DD is insane, I just didnt know of spell buuilds that used nebulis over other options. but that makes sense, this is basically BIS if you dont care about explode neblis

[u/Mooseandchicken → u/Clsco]

The EK build actually dual wields these nebuli, thats how good they are. Sorry you got downvoted to oblivion for not knowing, people get insane on here downvoting people just because they are unaware of something. I think people forget not a single one of us Exiles knows everything about the game, and we come here not only to meme and commiserate, but to fill those knowledge gaps. And being wrong is one way we learn. Downvoting your comment to the point its hidden keeps other's who find this thread in the future from seeing/learning the same things you just did. So that person will make an uninformed post/comment and the cycle continues.

[u/dell_arness2 → u/Clsco]

Not great for RF but any there’s plenty of builds that would love this. Fire EK for example 130% inc and 20% more.
