Last week we talked about the upcoming Hideout changes in Path of Exile: Betrayal. Since then we've received many questions from our community about the unified Hideout system. We have answered some of them in today's news post.
damage from impales on the enemy is separate from the hit triggering them, and is reflected damage

Sorry, but this won't work. That item requires you to reflect damage to enemies. Impale is an effect on the enemy which causes relfection to them, it's not you reflecting the damage.
since its reflected damage, its safe to assume that it cant cause or contribute to bleed then, right?
Yes
Since the stored damage is based on what was taken, some things like Vuln might make it double dip too.
It is not based on damage taken, it's based on unmitigated damage, which is inherently different - damage taken is mitigated. Nothing double-dips.
I doubt that the Impale damage is actually added to your hit. My guess is that it's its own separate effect dealt as secondary damage.
The damage from impales on the enemy is separate from the hit triggering them, and is reflected damage.
If multiple impales are on the enemy, they take a single reflected damage hit with the stored damage of all the impales combined, rather than several smaller ones, and then all the impales tick down one "use" (being removed if all 5 are used up).
Read moreThere already is- the character called 'Rin' in the trailer and ZiggyD's video is clearly Tora and her VA (her portrait is a red herring, the actual character they call Rin is a girl with horns that fires a bow, for one...)
EDIT: just to 'justify' this a little: Look at the character model of the syndicate member at 6:50 and the fight leading up to it in ZiggyD's video: https://youtu.be/o_bsqgXKGAU?t=410
Clearly, the character model doesn't match the portrait that shows up when he clicks on her - at all. You can get an even better look at the character model at 0:23 in the official trailer: https://youtu.be/d8Cpi4dFjm8?t=23.
Now, compare that character model to the current Tora model: https://d1u5p3l4wpay3k.cloudfront.net/pat...
Nice investigation there. The Order of Djinn wants people like you.
We used Tora's model for Rin in the promotional materials because Rin's model wasn't ready when we were filming it. "No one will notice"
Nice.
Are we going to get more teasers today?
Just news for today although we'll have a second news post later on to announce the weekend sale. We'll begin our daily teasers in addition to news next week.
I feel like its such a rare thing when someone who was dripping clues explains what each clue actually alluded to. Thanks for this.
There was also this thread where the gif I chose was also supposed to vaguely allude to crime-fighting.
I was wondering what are the three yellow bars under each option when you choose a veiled affix?
