Path of Exile Dev Tracker

I haven't heard anything about this but I will definitely raise the concern.

I've been leaving it flexible that's why I haven't announced it yet but tentatively it's as follows. (In USA time).

• Sunday - Challenge rewards.
  
• Monday - Balance Manifesto.
  
• Tuesday - Patch Notes, Item Filter and Passive Tree Data.
  
• Wednesday - 20/20 Gems (New and changed).
  
• Thursday - Torrent/Launch information.

The patch notes day won't change but I think there's a tentative possibility the others could move around. For example, I am considering posting challenge rewards tomorrow to make room for something else on Monday but we will see what happens. I also ideally would like it if we released the crafting options on that Thursday but I can't confirm that just yet.

Yep, it's happening! Should be in for launch.

We've looked into that and unfortunately there isn't enough space in existing tabs to add everything that was introduced in recent leagues. We're looking at what we can do and should hopefully have more to announce about this a bit later.

Ya

It's in the middle.

There seem to have been some network issues affecting the Washington D.C. gateway. These look to have been resolved around 20 minutes ago. I'll keep an eye on the gateway in case they return.

Yes! It looks like we got it working and it should be in for launch.

Delayed patch notes is a win for reddit? Well, maybe I could... delay them... more... ?

They are not "counting as self". That's not a thing. They are using your skill - if that skill is supported by Generosity, then auras from that skill can't affect you. That doesn't depend on who uses it.

If it's not supported by Generosity then I suspect the aura still won't affect you because they'll stop existing once they've used the skill.

No. Warcries only Exert attacks you perform. The warriors are the ones attacking, they are just using your skill to do it.

Do the Vaal double strike clones attack with the same support gems I'm using?

Yes. They are specifically using your Vaal Double Strike skill (but cannot create more doubles with it).

And are they snapshots of my current buffs etc. or are they affected by my buffs in real time?

They are using your skill. That skill updates as your stats change.

Technically yes. They are allies, so will probably receive the buff, but that doesn't matter because they don't have any skills of their own which could benefit from improving their damage.

They use your skill, so Rallying Cry giving you a more damage buff will improve the damage of that skill This bit was unclear and confusing because I used the wrong terms. If an ally uses Rallying Cry, that gives you an added damage buff, which will affect your skills as used by the warriors. Rallying Cry never gives a more damage buff, it gives more damage to exerted attacks, which only applies to attacks you perform - Exerting isn't about the skills being yours, it's about you being the one using them.

It would have been cool if this had paid off.

Ditto!
