You can't really level as chaos EoR so it's a late game thing
Meanwhile you can level as fire with a pair of this https://www.grimtools.com/db/items/12471
(EoR doesn't benefit from dual wielding, but the weapon has massive EoR damage bonus)
The guaranteed drop is from a boss given by Sagon in Vanguard so you need to join Solael's cult. It can be gotten pretty early on.

You need physical resist reduction from dagger constellation and some flat RR since you have full physical retal on RF.

I tried it on dreadnaught, it had potential but it was hard to sustain because you don't have enough points to make your autoattacks decent for leech. I also tried sorcerer with a shard of beronath for some onslaught. That was pretty good. You can pop mirror and shit out your BWCs then dance around while stuff dies. I used hourglass. I didn't try pyromancer but I think it could be good too, I might give it a crack as I have pyromancer sitting around.

Go to grimtools and look at a few monster totems. Basically, a monster totem spawns in one of the random locations of its group. So if you know all the locations in the group you can always find where it spawns.
Example, Necropolis Interior. There's a void totem that spawns in like 3 locations. If you walk toward the dungeon entrance and check the map, you can always find it.
Asterkarn mountain has a beast totem nearby like this too

Why did you save a mostly text image in jpg then?

I think the cyclone set might just kind of suck. Might just farm up a good Tempestborn Spear for my EoR Archon and figure out what to replace the set pieces with. Cyclone really wants to scale pets pseudo-pets more than it does EoR damage but you can't stack electrocute the way you can stack some other DoTs and there's some silly stuff like EoR having bad one-hand scaling to start and the set wasting skill points on fucking Crushing Verdict.

Only for the global “Piercing to Vitality” conversion while leveling. The Wendigo Totem would be spammable, but you only have one, and you'd be constantly resetting it, which is pointless.

Take early health constellations if you haven't (Hound, Lion, Crook).
For the bigger bonuses, you just have to wait until you level further and get access to more gearing options.
As an Occultist hybrid, I have access to Familiars which serve as a pocket healer and that helped their survivability tremendously early on before you meet another spike in endgame bosses and their constant DOTs, where then you really need to start paying attention to their resistances.

Doing this on a throwaway char felt kinda no balls in the end.

Back when I started HC, it was super stressful because of the prospecting of losing everything. Then you slowly build up a stash of duplicate items, get all the mandates, and the stakes go down. Now I have like 10 chars, and only 2 of those are chars whose deaths I'd really even care about.

Still by far the ARPG where I've had the most fun with HC.

>>745214081
For me it was because HC removed the Yawn from it. The threat of death adds some tension, but the game is also really consistent. I always see the potential death coming and get to react.

Meanwhile I don't even bother trying in PoE because half the time I never even saw the death coming on my SC chars and just went from 100 to 0 in <1 second. Feel like there's way too much shit like "oh yeah never run multiple projectiles map with these mobs in it" behind surviving. I mean I've tried but it's not really fun running normal white maps to be safe. In GD it was fun weighing risks and ultimately doing everything.

Does Callagadra even do anything in range? In melee she spawns sands and shit but for ranged characters, tornadoes and that's it?
>>
>>745214470
That was for the Dread, 'cause I really wanted to fight it in an open area.

But I also did Callagadra in this patch to get the helm for my Warder. I used some shield throwing Warlord where I just ran away from her and threw shields at her. And yeah, she didn't do anything. Just needed to not walk through the tornadoes or stand in the sand cone thing.

>>
>>745218872
They made physical EoR stronger with enemy armour changes, buffed some sets, added a ton of new items including the spears, and EoR directly got a huge buff to its weapon damage and CC reduction built in letting you become literally immune to CC in it on very little investment.

>>745219117
It's perfectly playable if you like the skill and you'll be able to clear everything with it but it asks for a lot of investment relative to its performance. It hasn't been a "strong skill" for awhile now, I think the devs have overvalued its mobility. There's a ton of unexplored option on it though and like mentioned it received a massive amount of buffs this patch so there's probably a very good EoR build somewhere but I haven't found it. It's not Cyclone or Dunefiend at the very least.
>>
is this game worth pirating?
>>
>>745219461
>literally immune to CC with little investment
You're overhyping it. At 26, you're getting like 20% CC res and Max CC cap, you're still responsible juggling all the others like stun, freeze, slow and petrify.

I bought it years and years and years ago when it was a proto-survivorlike arena fighter. I think just at the tale end of my interest it started doing a campaign. I tried it again somewhat more recently after it pivoted to being an ARPG and I just got turned off by the amount of expansions I needed to buy. The artstyle and cheeky/corny voice prompts were fine at $5 but not for fucking $100 (give or take depending on what you don't buy from the bundle).

Its playable but its definitely on the lower end of melee skills. I think every other melee skill in the game has more aoe outside of single target ones. If you ever played POE2, its basically the mace basic attack range but 360 degrees.

>>745219760
It's 25% at rank 26 and affects all CCs with no caveats. A regular melee build is already aiming for the 80% soft cap on relevant CCs so if you're already building normally you're probably going to be stun, freeze and slow immune with no changes to your build. Archon has a lot of incidental stun resist built in so I actually had to find ways to cut stun resists because I was overcapping it passed 100.

Oh fuck that's what I get for putting on my augments in witch territory. Gotta redo that then.
And Unholy Inscription is a thought. I could use the extra OA to try and get some more crits so I can throw more bombs, but that whole aspect of the Apoclpyton set doesn't seem to be all that.
>>745222506
See above for aether resistance oversight. And I did forget the helm component.
Overall though, even mucking about with suboptimal resistances, the damage on this doesn't feel too good.
>>
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_T8TzKjL3WY

this is what onslaught looks like post-nerf
>>
>>745221691
put at least 1 point in improved casing you are missing a lot of aoe (and single target due to lack of overlaps) for no real reason)
the amatok's pact line is kinda a waste of point
redirect most of those to form of the beast bloodborne and maybe the rallying cry line
maybe swap out one of the rings since the resist reduction procs don't count
get some offensive aguments on your rings
change your chest and boot components
that's about all i can think of
those gloves and boots are kinda questionable but it might be a while before you can get something better
>>
>>745223485
It wasn't much of a nerf really, more of a rebalance, onslaught stacks were moved from items to onslaught itself and endless rage.
>>
>>745224962
Yeah my Onslaught build went from 10 to 11 stacks for free and I wasn't using any items for more stacks in the first place.
>>
>>745223908
I totally skipped over the AOE increase in Improved Casing, thought that was a pointless skill since I wasn't doing trauma damage.
Amatok's pact gives me DA and resistances, and if I take the attack/cast speed boosts out of Bloodfrenzy and put them into Form of the Beast I just raise my max cap, not my actual attack/cast speeds, no? I could use more OA from Rallying Cry though.
Why don't the resist reduction abilities from the ring do anything? They have a chance to activate from critical attacks, yes? Or is that one of the things Feral Claws doesn't work with?
The gloves I gotta replace, those were made for the previous iteration of the character that was the Cold damage Blackwater Cocktail build but I like the HP boost from them. Boots I forgot about, have to work on a replacement for those too.
>>
>>745225047
The voidheart ring should work fine with all your Werewolf shit but I don't know if stacking it twice is doing anything but increasing the chance since it's the same debuff.

you want form of the beast for this, it's effectively MORE damage
resists you should be solving with gear and you are waaaaay overkill on DA, losing a hundred or two won't hurt your survivability much
attack/cast speed is just qol on CD casters and not worth going out of your way for it MIGHT be worth keeping here if you're getting lots of use out of the claw cooldown reduction thing

HC anons how "innovative" are your builds?
I've never even entertained the thought of doing HC in path of exile because my builds are jank and the idea of running a jank build HC in a game like that sounds retarded, but grim dawn it seems more amenable.

Still, sounds sort of time consuming. I also prefer not to donate gear to new builds.

Devil's Crossing is pretty tough all things considered. They established that the town was fighting off aetherial for awhile before the Taken got there and we know that it wasn't just bitch ass loose roaming aetherials either, there was a concerted effort with high ranking aetherial to take it out. There isn't really much explanation of their bad assery unlike most factions either which are distinctly badasses equipped to survive the fall of the world. Bourbon just rustled together a motley crew of survivors and the Taken themself is basically one of them.

What archetype would benefit the most from increased devotion points? I'm looking at some of these mods that're available for the game, haven't played in years.

All of them. It's hard to say really. I guess Phys and Lightning arguably have two major constellations tied with them and then you have that one at the top which is just a general boost.

>>745227454

Did you seriously just auto attack to that level? That's amazing.
>>
>>745235671
Oh, this is an extremely easy fix. Honestly your build is impressively weak and it's actually incredible that you finished FoA on it. You have a lot of freedom on where you want to go from here, if you just want to keep left clicking everything down, you can rearrange your points to keep your general playstyle but spec into Demolitionist's fire strike to replace your auto attack. Otherwise your priority here should be just finding a skill you like. Remember that respecs cost basically nothing.

Amarasta's Blade Burst is pretty goated for levelling to start if you don't want to mess around with Demolitionist shit. We can get into specifics if you have any thoughts on what you'd want to do but your whole set up is clearly touch and go so far.

It's closer than expected after DLing a dps meter. Wrath wins out on single target by ~20%, but the sword wins in aoe by ~25%. Probably still will go with Wrath since bosses tend to be more dangerous and aoe groupings are iffy.

If you want to be a min/maxing metafag, killing him is a bad idea since he would've appeared later on as a constant enemy to farm up. Some choices do matter later on, but nothing to stress over.

They do and it's easy to fuck up in this game but you get ample chances to fix anything you do so it's no big deal. Even in the absolute worst case scenario you can cheat since it's a single player game and there's no community attitude of being strict on how people play but most people never need to.

Just go in, do what you want and take it easy

>They do and it's easy to fuck up in this game
You're overhyping it. The worst you can do is pick Kymon or DV and get locked out from the gear from either but even then their stuff has been largely powercrept. Barrowholm is definitely a bigger thing but you're setting yourself up if you decide to go against the faction that clearly has a reputation bar.

Yes they matter but they very rarely have any items you cant get from anywhere else, plus you can choose the other faction in any other difficulty/character
