Lethal Pride Timeless Jewel - Path of Exile

Ah, Lethal Pride! This unique jewel in Path of Exile packs a powerful punch, but it demands a strategic approach. Here's a breakdown of its potential and considerations:

Stats and Effects:

  • Grants increased Physical Damage, Critical Strike Chance, and Attack Speed. These directly boost your offensive capabilities.
  • However, it also has a "Life Loss on Hit" effect, meaning you'll take damage every time you strike an enemy.

Strengths:

  • High Damage Potential: The combination of increased damage and critical strike chance can significantly amplify your offensive output.
  • Attack Speed Synergy: The bonus attack speed complements the increased damage and can further boost your clear speed.
  • Builds with Mitigation: Lethal Pride shines in builds with strong life regeneration, leech, or other ways to mitigate the life loss on hit.

Weaknesses:

  • Self-Damage Risk: The life loss on hit can be dangerous, especially against tough enemies or in situations where you lack sufficient mitigation.
  • Requires Planning: Using Lethal Pride effectively requires careful build planning and investment in defensive measures.
  • Not for Everyone: Not all builds can handle the life loss on hit, making it unsuitable for some playstyles.

Considerations:

  • Build Synergy: Ensure your build has sufficient life regeneration, leech, or other forms of life recovery to counteract the self-damage.
  • Defense Layers: Invest in additional defenses like resistances, energy shield, or evasion to increase your survivability.
  • Playstyle: Be mindful of your playstyle and avoid situations where you take excessive damage.

Overall:

Lethal Pride is a powerful offensive jewel, but it's not for the faint of heart. It demands careful planning and a build capable of handling the self-damage. If you can manage the risk, it can significantly boost your offensive potential and take your Path of Exile journey to the next level.

Remember: Path of Exile is about experimentation and finding what works best for you. Don't hesitate to try out Lethal Pride and see if it fits your playstyle! Just be cautious and prioritize your survivability.

Lethal Pride Timeless Jewel

IconDescription
Lethal Pride

Lethal Pride is a unique Timeless Jewel. Jewels. Limited To: 1 Historic. Radius: Large (1500).

  • Commanded leadership over (10000–18000) warriors under Kaom
    Passives in radius are Conquered by the Karui
  • Historic
  • (Conquered Passive Skills cannot be modified by other Jewels)

Flavour Text: They believed themselves the greatest warriors, but that savagery turned upon their own.

Mechanics

Lethal Pride adds +2 or +4 Strength to minor passives. In this aspect all jewels work the same. For example if a minor passive gets augmented with +4 Strength by Lethal Pride, then every other variant of the jewel will also add +4. But notable passives also get additional mods, which depend on the roll the jewel itself has. Two Lethal Pride jewels that share the same number will give the same notable passive augmentations and are therefore functionally identical. This also means that there are 8001 different versions as far as notable passive changes are concerned.

  • Characters are limited to 1 Historic jewel. All unique Timeless Jewel have the Historic mod.
  • Conquered: Transformed passive skills cannot be further modified by other radius jewels such as Lioneye's Fall. Timeless Jewel will not conquer any Cluster Jewel passives even if they are within the radius, and will not have a radius if socketed in the outer passive tree jewel sockets or Cluster Jewel sockets.
