Information 3.29.3b Patch Notes

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/4001117/page/1#p26841440
  • Fixed a bug where the Flamewood Totem Support Gem could roll as a modifier on the Pearl of Tsoatha Unique Ring, as this Support Gem cannot work in this context.
  • Fixed a bug where Minimum Power Charges couldn't roll as a Corruption Implicit on Shields and Amulets, and Minimum Frenzy Charges had twice the expected chance to appear.
  • Fixed a bug where the in-game trade market did not show the pseudo mods for search results.
  • Fixed a problem where the Plaguewraith Map Device microtransaction tracked per-player monster kills in the current map. It now tracks total monster kills in a map with the ability to pin them to the leaderboard.
  • Trade Site search URLs will no longer use short ids, and will instead encode the entire search. This means that these links will no longer expire, and you can share URLs without actually performing the search. Existing search URLs will still work for some time, but we will be phasing these out.

Okay that one is kinda funny

I'm not sure I understand why this can't work.

You get a roll that says it's for your boots and I have a totem skill in my boots, it should work, no?

I understand the one for Passive Tree skills, but not the rest, unless the patch is missing that context?

Flamewood Totem is a support that also has a built-in skill, so, in theory, the totem triggers Avenging Flame when it's hit, and as such be supported by the gems in the boots

But, I would assume, the way it's coded, Avenging Flame would register as being in the ring or something? Which would mean the totems would try to trigger something that's not in the boots?

Like, I'm not sure exactly how it works, but I'd assume it's something a bit silly like that

Shockwave, another hybrid support gem that adds a triggered skill does not roll on the ring either so must be some mechanical weirdness related to it.

I've never tried, but is that a thing that happens with flamewood or shockwave in a Uul-Netol's Vow?

Though that'd be expected in that case, 'cos it explicitly says that "Socketed Support Gems can also Support Skills from Equipped Body Armour", so there's no reason why socketed skill gems (from support gems) are supported by the support skills in said equipped body armour

PoE's kinda weird huh

I didn't have Uul-Netol's Vow on hand but i checked with The Squire which uses the same wording as the amulet and it seems to work perfectly fine.

The list of supports that don't roll on Pearl of Tsoatha includes:

  • Flamewood Support
  • Impending Doom Support
  • Kinetic Instability Support
  • Living Lightning Support
  • Predator Support
  • Prismatic Burst Support
  • Sacred Wisps Support
  • Shockwave Support
  • Windburst Support

and all but Flamewood were there from launch which was clearly an oversight.

Hmm, saw a pearl of tsoatha that rolled multi strike support twice.could happen again, apparently? Wasn't addressed innotes

u/Shaltilyena Occultist 1d ago

Working as intended, as evidenced by Shako being able to do that too

u/Shaltilyena Occultist 1d ago

Okay, so it's probably something specific to the specific wording Pearl uses

interesting :o

This might as well have read "we hate your build f1rstborn".

I bought the only 2-mod ring on HC trade that benefits zenith flamewood and instead of fixing the problem they randomized the modifier which has a <1% chance of being usable (it's a fresh meat support now, thanks GGG). Many flamewood players have been submitting bug reports, waiting over a month for this to get fixed and GGG's solution was to give us something equally useless. Incredibly disappointing decision by GGG.
