>>507665410uhhh bideo games?
>>507665525how much rarity to achieve this rare feat?
>>507665410Why the fuck did i click that
>>50766560260%+
poe2 bad.
Imagine clicking on links posted on 4chan
>>507665687that's why i come here.
Trial of shekels just crashed my entire pc 3 times trying to leave it
someone please tell me the difference between rod turdguson and jonna's ham
>>507665892Intel CPU?
>>507666068AMD
For how long kiwi vacations usually go?Is it scandi tier 3 month long or american standard where you get 48 hours of rest then its back to the coal mines?
>>507666168my condolences
Thanks, game.
>>507666168
>>507666168switch to vulkan, works on my machine
>>507666312Dont get uniques if you dont want to get reminded that uniques are worthless
>>507666228I read somewhere that they were coming back to the office on January 4th, but I'm not going to pretend me reading something on the internet means anything.
Has anyone tried these nodes?Is it bait? It looks like bait.
>>507666312damn 10-18 damage, that'll carry you through the red vale lmao
>Hide Orb of Augmentation>The number of items on the floor is halvedMaps seem so empty now
>>507666376>Dont get uniquesTrust me if I had control over what randomly drops from mobs I would be getting this shit to drop.
>>507666168Owari...da...
>>507666391Weird looking icon.
>>507666376>>507666430gotta wait for proper lootfilters that hide the shitty uniques like in poe1
Some days PoE will crash 10 times, sometimes it doesn't crash at all. I'm about to switch to archbtw full time if it keeps happening.
>>507666391I was playing around with them when I had two weapons but eventually I got one good one and could never get a second so I dropped it
So if i wanna play I need to run a MF build?
they need to add actually cool uniques right about nowwhere mjolner
No, just play SSF and have fun. Let the economytards shitfling
>>507666780SSF in PoE2 is for cuckolds, get the fuck out of here
>>507666831What am I cucking myself out of? Browsing a website for 3 hours trying to buy one piece of gear?
Repeat from last thread:Wait, so how does damage conversion work in PoE2? If I'm playing Merc, and I pick a node that passively gives +20% Physical Damage, how is that applied to Crossbow skills that converts Physical Damage to Elemental Damage? Does it add the PhyDamage first THEN convert, or does it read that modifiers AFTER the conversion takes place?
>>507666723Stormweaver
>>507666391only if there's some retarded unintended way to get these bonuses all the time, like maybe the game thinks shield wall/ice wall counts as enemies
>>507666980>how does it workIt converts the damage THEN applies the increase of the damage to which you converted. So in short, if you convert phys to lets say fire, you nerf your own damage by picking any phys increase nodes instead of fire damage nodes.
>Try to irradiate a boss node>The radiation goes around itholy fucking shit kill me dogshit endgame
Holy shit people are so fucking stupid. Krippfagian did so much damage with his faggot armor videos. Every fucking "forum" post and message on twitch chat is about fucking armor. Armor is fucking fine when you invest in it. You're supposed to dodge the huge hits no matter what defensive layers you go. Fucking retards.
>>507666927Your own time. At least you could use crafting knowledge in 1 and feel like you weren't missing out on much. Good luck with that now.
>>507666980After conversion. It's not as bad as you'd think since it's one of the things they did bother accounting for on the passive tree so you have enough options to scale that don't only effect half of your damage
>7 days since the last updateabandonware
>>507667323it basically means you never pick up physical damage for crossbow. focus on projectile damage, elemental damage and ailments
>>507667181That blows, especially since a lot of Merc persistent buffs converts 100% PhysDamage to EleDamage.
>>507667286I mean it's fucked in the sense that we aren't talking about how bad defenses are overall. Recovery is garbage, hp regen seems way worse than 1 especially with smaller life pools. Leech is gatekeeped to phys damage only because it just is, goy. You're reliant on just spamming a life flask that has a stupid amount of charges because it's just a bandaid for the lack of everything else.
>>507667286Evasion gives better EHP on small hits with upside. Armour would strictly be the worst defensive layer mathematically even if the formula was equal but it isn't, the only advantage it has mechanically is the ability to tank big hits for uptime but it feels to do that.
Ah yes, the bloodmage experience.. Using latest spell level. Amazing, I am witnessing the vision.
>guy hands you 40 div>think ure rich>look down into your palm>pennies
>>507667286>You're supposed to dodge the huge hits no matter what defensive layers you gouhhh acrobatics? 10k ES?
>>507665248i honestly can't wait for huntress and duelist.
>>507667428there are very little physical nodes near mercenary and it's intentional, you're meant to scale your damage with >>507667387
>>507667287The end game is barely there in PoE2 as it is. I just get my fill of a build and move on. Same as in Diablo 2, I have never leveled a character to 99 in that game. I don't chase minmax autism in this game.
>>507667487the best thing about DD blood mage is you don't have to deal with this bullshit. is spell leech still worthless?
How hard is POE1 to get into if I've only played POE2? Should I just hop into the latest league and can I get to the endgame on SSF?
>>507666407Tradefag. Can't get enough of these on SSF.
I'm finally making divs per hour but my upgrades cost 40 divs...
>>507667636poe 1 is the easiest ARPG ever made
>>507667639i fucking can. i have like 400 of them shits, i have half a mind to hide them too.
Blood Mage will be good when they release daggers and you can do a Chaos/Poison crit build.
>>507667035>hurr durrr graph colors
>>507667747Acolyte tho
>Want to play Skeleton bro>Have to go FULL FIRE MAGE to do soAmazing
>>507667636PoE 1 has many noob traps and it's hard to respec so you should probably be following a build (though people suggest not doing that for your first run).
>>507666831SSF adds so much to poe. Everything is meaningful and has value. It's great.
>>507667442this is on purpose, they want everything to be active rather than passive.especially on bosses, they want you to run out of potions over a long fight not just regen to full in 2 seconds.recovery while clearing is broken though, cannibalism too strong
why are tier 16 maps hard to fucking getthis is retarded
>>507667487>chaos boltbloodmage is designed around physical skills anon, they're cheap asf and scale incredibly well with crit. if you must use something else, avoid +gem level and cast speed, focus on hard hitting with crit, get -mana cost from the shadow tree or hp regen from templar.
>>507667652>sir, me so skillfur by praying PoE 2. Jonathansan says I'm just rikey da Elden Ring prayer.I know this is foreign to you fags, but nobody plays an ARPG because it's hard or requires skill. They want to have fun and kill shit and get loot so they can kill more shit at higher levels.
>>507667821I do it because I can't play HC anymore since I have a job, so I need some other factor to keep me hooked without the rush of dying
Grenades don't count as projectiles right? Explosive Grenade has the projectile tag but the "projectile" is the non-damaging portion that's shot out right?
>>507667812why the fug is SRS considered sorceress adjacent anyways? did they really think people would dual spec spell dmg and minion dmg?
>>507667829They certainly didn't do a good job of that. Survivability is so weak but damage is so strong that they'll be playing whackamole ad nauseum for the foreseeable future. Forget vine arrow tier bullshit, there are so many builds we'd easily call mediocre that still delete everything but just have no leeway to trade it out for bulk
>>507667810All the bad ascendancies will be viable, trust the plan.
what the fuck is a makareth shrine in trials? is that the thing that gives you honor? the thing that gives water? or something else?
>>507667860level 82 gear and level 20 gems are the pinnacle of power in the game right now so they better be hard to get.
>>507667886>bloodmage is designed around physical skills anonit's designed around crit, not necessarily phys shit. it even has a node that's strong specifically with non-phys spells, that increases your base crit chance. chaos bolt is just a dogshit spell not worth building around, period.
>>507667887where did i say that poe was hard
>>507667812>FULL FIRE MAGEWhy?Flame Wall summons 5 SRS's at a time and it buffs the projectiles of your minions (I think).
Any chaos witch build?? Chaos sucks???
>>507667954I'm pretty sure projectile damage and area damage both scale the explosion.
>>507667471Armor is SO much better than evasion for small hits, especially when you have other layers like regen and leech.>>507667492For now, fine. ES is getting dumpstered the best big balance update. They'll probably nuke grim feast. You'll still get one shot with 10k ES sometimes with no armor.
>>507667954Grenades do projectile damage
>>507667514I'm assuming Broken Armor works differently, where lowering the enemy's defenses would scale up the base PhysDamage before modifiers (which in turn would up the overall damage of the converted EleDamage, since it's % based), or am I wrong there?
>>507668108physical skills are designed around crit, exactly like bloodmage, they were clearly meant to be used for leveling bloodmage. you can switch in the endgame if you want, but nothing beats bonestorm + DD for leveling.
>>507666831Yeah, I saw it the last time you had it, didn't give a shit about your meltdown then, don't give a shit about it now. But maybe don't spend every second associating everything with cuckoldry, it's kind of a self-report.
>>507668135I want a Necro ascendancy.. I dont like being fire based.I just wanna be a D2 necro and swarm people with a mob of boners
>>507668142everything chaos outside of a few, broken poison builds is big shit apparently
>>507656327>Also works on an Infernalist. Just gotta take more Crit Chance nodes but the trade is you get more damage per explosion with DD and more brutes summoned.Link me a tree please. I'm actually interested in trying out DD as Infernalist. I got so tired of SRS Flame Wall Arsonist I went full in Storm Skeletons but it's even worse for bosses it seems.
>>507668274Summon druid trust the plan
>>507668274Bone Witch is literally that.
>>507668274bonestorm, bone cage and DD with an occasional power siphon is exactly what you're looking for, it's kinda boring though.
>stormweaver>ice nova>high cast speed>cast on freeze cold snapThis is turning out to be so fun and awesome.
>>507668142it's shit right now. we'll see once they add occultist to witch.
eeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
>>507668065Yeah i haven't figured this out either
>>507667816Is there important to know before hopping in? My friend told me the endgame was comprised of uber bosses and I was hoping to work my way up to them.
>>507667742Is your gear shit? I'm using them on every fucking base that drops to find upgrades.
>>507668065they give you three choices, each with a plus and a negative. something like you get a specific boon and receive a random affliction, or restore honour and gain a specific affliction, etc. you can also just look at them not pick one, if any of them fuck your build.
>>507668142Any of the perma uptime Demon Form builds since you get 10000% damage and it makes anything viable.
i said it before and ill say it again whoever in the art department made coomer gear for the witch/sorc god bless you i cant wait to see the coomer gear from act 4,5 and 6
>>507668516There are a few pinnacle bosses that you need to defeat to upgrade your atlas, but the ubers are purely optional. There's too many things to know to spell them all out for you, you gotta dive in and search for info when you're met with roadblocks.
>>507668591no, but the bottleneck i found is transmutes not augs. often i'm transmuting/auging white bases that are good, not auging magic items i pick up.
>>507667816>hard to respecWhat? Not only, do you have Orb of Regrets and the story handing you point refunds you can also use Kingsmarch to respec for gold.It is the easiest it has EVER been in poe 1 to respec out of a shit build. Unless you mean gems, then I'll give you that.
>>507668153Evasion scales better than armour per point on top of inexplicably being capable of getting many more points than armour just as a matter of numbers. Your EHP goes up higher against physical than armor does but it also mitigates elemental and chaos hit damage. This is just a hard fact and anyone who remembers 4th grade math can see this. The only advantage armour has on small hits in a vacuum is that it's less susceptible to stun but it's not a large investment to fix that.The question of which becomes better after layering is more complicated but if we're only judging the game as it is right now, evasion gets to layer with phys reduction and energy shield instead of recoup so I really wouldn't bet on armour in this comparison
>>507665248Why are the legs so long in this artbook.
>>507668787When are we getting delve in POE2?
>make 60% of your damage conditional on weird timed buffs>also give bosses random immunity phases that eat up the entire time of your buffsBRAVO CHRIS
>>507668787good points but evasion characters die to one white DD
>>507668919>Chrishey they're changed the scapegoat now, anon
>>507668610oh, I see like 1 or 2 of those in an ENTIRE 4 floor trial. it's weird there's so many "on venerating a merakath shrine..." options
>>507668787There's no scaling evasion. You either get hit (and one shot) or you don't.
>>507668787Evasion main weakness is aoe physical damage, nobody likes getting one shot out of the blue because some mob somewhere slammed the ground
>>507669019yeah i think acrobatics has to be mandatory on any pure evasion build.
>>507667323This cope is fucking hilarious. The new damage formula is absolute fucking dogshit and there's literally no reason for it
>>507669019Haha sure would be nice if they gave evasion characters something nice like 30% damage reduction after they fire some arrows or physical reduction for stacking armour wouldn't it be fucking crazy NERF DEADEYE AND INVOKER
>>507669019>get to oriath act 5>every mob has physical aoe long range attacks and spellshonestly once we have the full game, armor might be looking quite a bit better as a defensive layer
>>507669085Acrobatics is only viable in pure EVA builds, for monks you got no choice but to go invoker protect me from harm, ranger can do it though.Acolyte of chuddha is fucked though
>>507669141Damage is completely out of control in this game already and everything needs hard nerfs. Quit your fucking bitching.
>>507666312Do they ever think about making a meme version and then a level 70 version?
>tfw have only 55% magic find at lvl94>can't be bothered to change my gear again and waste hours on trading site with filters + hundreds of exalts
>you can detonate dead frozen essence monsters>it just deletes the entire eventlol
>>507668969If only we knew how good we had it
>>50766937555% is a normal amount anonI have 48, my friend have 60 ishI can still drop divs, its just not streamer levels
>>507669327And that has little bearing on what I just said you fucking moron
When is going armor/ES valid?
Maces feel good with a swiftness shrine.
not being able to create lower level gems with high level gems is pure WEIGHT, VISION and FRICTION. i fucking LOVE farming low level areas for shitty low level skill gems, bravo
Trash mobs respawning after death is just annoying.
How much could I get for this? 90 ex?
>>507669532when they add druid/templar
>>507669531It's directly related to what you said, retard.
>try to leap out of enemies and purple fuckin exploding orbs on blooming field>no actually, you can't jump over these brambles you jump 3 times higher than, and you clipped them by a centimeter so you have to jump in place>diethank you, master
>>507669528So what you should do is minimize the dropping of divs. You are supposed to pick them up, not drop them.Hope this helps!
>>507669528Yeah maybe it is.I'm just jealous and feel like shit when I see people getting loot explosions with currency and claiming it's>every map or something like that. I know it's usually an exaggeration but man I want to have a good, strong build for actually playing the game, not filled with meme RNG numbers on every piece of gear.
>>507669375Do NOT fall for the 'I'll use MF uniques". Tried it and it's miserable, even with a decently strong build. Most MF uniques are far, far too shit.
>>507669439I miss him even with the countless lies I caught him in over the years.Remember: Chris, Mark, and Jonathan are nothing more than salesmen.
>>507667286KEK. Imagine wasting points on armor!
I got those burning ground boots, has anyone tried them with gas arrow? Is it clunky?SSF so I can't buy the helmet.
if your under 100% mf honestly just kys
>decide to bite the bullet and buy something that is an 'upgrade'>equip it>my damage gets lowered
>>507669656In what way retard? What builds are abusing the current conversion mechanics to get high dps? Prove the direct relation
>>507669532only on witchhunter since the nodes are directly beneathi him and to scale up ward
how much iir do I need for solo play I currently have 114% tried running it with a 4 man party of random lowbies in the acts and I get 1-3 exalts per rare/unique monsters
Honestly, they should delete rarity and transfer all rarity buffs to map modifiers
Is it realistic to make a cast on meta gem proc every time?
I get that they want people to see all the work they put into the animations but do I really have to sit here watching my ailment stacks drop off while the boss does his gay little RP fortnite dance spell cast? Is this THE VISION?
>>507669532When int str classes are added. You don't have to play them, but we're missing their tools. We have ghost shroud and wind dancer that rockets the value of the layers but scavenged plating is way too situational to compete. Warrior doesn't have the tools to make pathing up practical but the third ascendancy or axes could change that.Armor is garbage right now and anyone denying that is a fucking retard but it can easily be good by release even if they change literally nothing about how it works right now. We might get something equivalent to determination or a unique that provides a good layer or just an ascendancy that scales with it better than titan does.
>>507669981i wonder if it has diminishing returns, would be funny if all of the giga rarity stackers are getting nothing out of it since they have too much
>>507669891skill issue
>>507667286>You're supposed to dodge the huge hits no matter what defensive layers you go.Except every defensive layer other than armor allows you to take a couple hits like that with no consequence.
>>507667639I think you're confusing it with Orb of Transmutation
>>507668702Can I do it without trading and is standard or the current league a better choice?
>>507669532you probably can't get enough armour to be relevant in addition to the es you need
There's too many fucking multipliers in this game. Usually there's only 3 to 4 and then crit eg Damage Increase x Debuff x Resist. Each buff is additive within there own category. POE has a million less or more, all of which are multiplicative to each other.
>>507670108It seems the VISION in this game only applies to mace and armor.
>>507669707Also your leap takes a second to start up :^)
>>507668142EDC is dogshit, hexblast is serviceable, hexblast/contagion w/ chaos freeze to freeze bosses. Ed has some utility in tight quarters to kill those spiders/scorpions that shoot chaos dmg
>>507669879It is clunky, you cant really get the enemies to ignite reliably with them
>>507670140Current league would be better. Trading is pretty dead by this point so it doesn't matter if you play SSF or trade league and you can always transfer over from SSF to trade. The game is based around trade though when the playerbase is alive at league start. You can play SSF primarily once you learn the esoteric ways of PoE 1 crafting.
How many t15 maps to i need to run until i can effort a temporalis?
Why can't I activate this node with a weapon skill point?
>>507667829My enjoyment of the game absolutely skyrocketed when you got enough regen that I didn't have to dodge boss basic attacks and and shitty little mechanics. The kill the boss before you run out charges design is so fucking bad and just encourages you to play whatever has the most broken damage.
>>507670329That's too bad, guess I'll wait until I get the helmet then.
>>507670387Zero, just do your own no hit trial run.
Port my golden kiwi into the game already
>>507670194Welcome to PoE
>>507670512SameNot getting one shot by random shit made the game way more fun for me
>>507670569Easy peasy. I need the relic first though.
>>507670123Nah I'm not. For some reason I have like 50 transmutes and 2 augments.
>>507670374Is there a good place to find builds? Given there is no respec I don't think experimenting with my first character will be a good idea.
What's the point of farming now? Your stuff won't carry over to official release leagues and you won't be able to speedrun with Astramentis.
Doomgods, web won
>The reddit is FUMING and bringing up old quotes and interviews regarding the tradeBros...They're going to force GGG to update the trade.. frictionbros..?
>>507670516Or rather I should say that the constant back and forth is the problem, as well as enemies that like to run away.
>>507670512>encourages you to play whatever has the most broken damage.This is what really gets me. Damage is so high even if you're on a weaker build that I can't imagine this is the vision they actually had in mind. The game is skewered so heavily towards minimal button, high damage builds with their design choices when when so many things only that the intention was to have us piano
>>507668787Armor is consistent, evasion is not. The main cause of deaths are oneshots and evasions do nothing for them. Armor creates instances where you survive them.You're meant to have multiple layers because each type of layer solves a different issue. A little bit of evasion with high armor does more than a high evasion with a little armor. Armor sucks against repeated hits and even a little evasion buffer for them goes a tremendous way. Conversely, a little armor won't save you from fucking anything if you get hit through your high evasion.ES is fucking stupid right now though, yes. But you can also go armor/ES gear rather than just armor, so that you have a HP buffer to take advantage of the reduced damage, but retards into armor just want to pick one layer and expect it to save them from everything.Armor is strictly better than evasion as a standalone layer. But people into evasion have a natural inclination to taking more. People who use armor just refuse to use not-armor because me big strength me no need other stats even though stats outside of int, because of the insane mana costs, are worthless in this game.
>>507670820>frictionbros..?No such thing, no one in their right mind and being honest thinks the trade system is good.People will only say that it is to be contrarian or mock others.
>>507670776>What's the pointIt's fun
>>507669281Chalupa is mom or es.
>>507670820I too enjoy the experience of pm-ing 25 bots before a single person replies. The trade experience is fucking abysmal right now.
Can they remove Eternal Knight's shield already? Its even more annoying than immunities, flask siphon and mana drain combined
>>507670858>Armor is consistentYeah, consistently shit.>The main cause of deaths are oneshots and evasions do nothing for themWrong, evasion avoids them (with acrobatics) and armour doesn't do anything against them because it losses effectiveness against bigger hits and is not even up most of the time because there's an armour break mob in every pack.>Armor is strictly better than evasion as a standalone layerYeah it's great if you're in the campaign 3 levels above the zone you're in, then it really owns.
>>507670959Man I want to roll a darkness chalupa so bad even though I know it's shit. I just want to see it for myself you know
>Gemling at it's core can get 75% free flickerstrikes due to double same gems + ez qualityUmmm nerf? Only Monkbros should be able to flicker.
At this point this general is just having the same complaints reposted over and over and the subreddit is drowning in them. There is a dedicated thread for this AND GGG has a forum dedicated to feed back on their website that they (and many of us) would like you to use. Please enforce something regarding complaints that have like 50 previous posts in the last day or few days.People are acting like if we don’t repeat an issue 2,000 times on Reddit that the devs won’t be aware of it. Most “feed back” are people mostly venting about their frustration. At this point they have to be 1000% aware of every single little issue. Even taking reddit out of the picture I’m sure they know from their actual feedback forums a lone and content created videos.Many people are also posting like this isn’t EA, condemning the game as bad lol. Comment sections filled with “this is EA”. Maybe gamers have forgotten what actual EA is like and for, honestly I don’t blame you on this one with how EA is used in the gaming industry today TLDR: Please use the dedicated feed back thread and GGG website for issues, complaints, mental breakdowns. Please avoid being dedicated post number 40 of the day about x or y issue.If you’re new to this game and having problems, it’s probably you. The game has problems but you’re probably doing little to actually balance/engage with aspects of the game or tap the power of your character. And that’s ok, just don’t post like it’s the games fault that your hand isn’t being held and you aren’t being rewarded for playing a lot. POE rewards you for playing correctly, efficiently engaging with content, and most importantly, understanding and having knowledge of the game. It’s not an easy game and this is probably the hardest the game will ever be. Come to the subreddit like a student who wants to learn, not a consumer who feels that spending 30 dollars and playing all day should be grounds for reward in its self.
>>507670763You get a few respec points for completing quests and you'll be drowning in orb of regrets eventually( a currency that gives one respec point when you consume them). It wouldn't hurt to find some leveling and eventually endgame atlas guides and beginner builds. Going in blind can be a little overwhelming.
>tried using poison bow skills>immediately die after applying poison to the enemieswhy are poison skills dogshit in this game
>>507671086That darkness tree is so weird. SIX nodes dedicated to it.Extra damage is always nice on Chudula, the chaos res makes it easy to build up res too if you don't want to play CI. I'm having fun rn with my Chud.
>>507670763ah shit, I didn't answer where you can find actually build guides. My bad. I think you can go to maxroll and they'll have some guides up. I'm sure there are a billion beginner build guides if you search youtube, too. Poe.ninja is where you can look at the best players builds once you get familiar with the game.
>>507671086I'm playing one now, reality rending is hilarious with grenades because sometimes I'm zdps and sometimes mobs just disappear.
>don't get the stuff to put into towers>don't get to run the areas around it for buffs??????? why is it like this
>>507671061why is every rip clip i see an evasion/es character with 1500 hp dying to a single ground explosion or dd and then saying "WHY EVERYTHING ONE SHOT?" then
>>507670858You aren't playing maps or you didn't play the game
>>507671061>Yeah, consistently shit.If you never played PoE1 because this issue has existed for over 10 years and the community has already long resolved it. Armor with literally any other layer is the best solution over any other combination of layers. This game doesn't let you easily hit 90% res or anything so armor is the most likely to save you from death. Just not if you're a fucking retard who refuses to take anything else on top.>Wrong, evasion avoids them (with acrobatics)You mean evasion took the thing that lets them add a second layer? And it worked? Wow who would have fucking thought. Put ES on armor and suddenly you're the equivalent of stacking life with armor in the past. And it worked. It's more point efficient to grab armor and ES decent ES than high enough evasion that Acrobatics doesn't gimp you. And even then, the ability to dodge oneshots doesn't change that if you get hit you fucking die. Just take Grim Feast with literally any ES/armor gear and you're more immortal than evasion builds will ever be.>Yeah it's great if you're in the campaign 3 levels above the zone you're in, then it really owns.You haven't gotten out of the PoE1 campaign so your opinion doesn't matter.
>>507668274Pretty sure they said there isn't going to be a necro ascendancy, Infernalist is probably the best you're going to get.Besides, Witch still needs a chaos/DoT ascendancy and sorc isn't getting minions.
>>507671131I post here because bitching about my frustrations satisfies me. That's really all it is. I'm not looking for (You)s or trying to fix the game, I'm ready to believe that it'll be fine by release without my input. I just want to scream into the void every time it pisses me off. Pretty sure most complaints are just venting and neither some bad faith boogieman troll or people thinking GGG will listen to them. Why the fuck else would you go to 4chan except to anonymously shit post.
poe2? Big pile of shit
>>507670431Because you already allocated it
>>507671231Skill issue. Poison is sleeper OP.I literally never die on my poison gemling in juiced T16+ maps, you just have to build better defenses.
Why isn't the mirror on the lootfilter?
>>507671421I'm level 93 on someone that uses basically every layer because I'm not a fucking retard. How stats work in this game + the outer ring being broken as fuck means there's no excuse for not having like 5 layers and being immortal.Retards only die with armor if they're stubborn and refuse to use anything else because of le Barbarian strength gigachad not need any of that disgusting intellergence
>>507671131And here we go and close the circle... the complaint about the complaint post. Everything is the same every time, in every gamer subreddit for years.As perfect and super fucking beautiful this game is. There is a LOT in the game that's very frustrating and super annoying. People need to vent. There are a lot of emotions going on. Already 100ts of hours investment. Not everyone can stay rational all the time.My 20 year old son stopped playing days ago after having thousands of hours in poe1. Not a single posting somewhere. Just stopped playing. Annoying trials, only 1 life, not every map has a boss etc.If all the people would act like him it would be really bad. Open your mouth and write what you think. We love this game and it has to be said what we don't like. And when a huge amount of us don't like the same thing, well then there are a huge amount of postings about it. Only that way we have a chance that some of the things we don't like could maybe get a change.And let's be serious for a moment. For the amount of players in the game, this sub is super quiet. GGG had a big success. A lot of work ahead of them but a very big success
>>507668516You know how you can use gold at any point to respec? In poe1 it's regrets (you get 20 from doing the campaign).Also, in act 2 you'll find some bandits that you can side with and the decision is hard to change, make an educated decision (kill all is usually the best option).
>>507671426>You mean evasion took the thing that lets them add a second layer?What the fuck are you even talking about you retard. Acrobatics isn't a second layer.
>>507671437chaos dots is probably gonna be in shadow not witch. for witch it'll be curses, aka occultist.
I had a dream where Scrolls of Wisdom could be crafted into coal
>>507670963Only bots are playing this stinker
>>507668757Compared to paying some loose gold at any point it's definitely a lot harder.
>>507670829That's because they forgot to code actual interactions between skills with support gems and just made certain skills function better than others instead.
>>507671554IS THIS WHY...
>>507668402Cute pepe
>>507671603Acrobatics is a second layer because evasion doesn't naturally dodge the things that actually kill you. It might as well be this game's spell suppress because it's used for functionally the same scenarios. To dodge the oneshots evasion doesn't dodge. The point investment for acrobatics not gimping you is higher than the points investment to just grab a few int nodes and wear ES/armor items.
>>507671554I wouldn't worry about it.
>>507665037>I leveled with it day 1 and had 0 issues0 issues means you slogged through the campaign on 5 damage0 issues doesn't mean it doesn't feel like absolute SHITspark is SHIT to level with
>>507671086I have a hexlast chalupa. Occasionally reality rending hits and I have some chalupa breach stacks so it's hitting over 100% more. It's like having 2 separate crit mods. U have to go mom to grab the giga chaos nodes
>>507670858This is literally the opposite of truth and you're a fucking moron for this post. Evasion is way better at stopping one shots because of its entropy mechanic. Armor less so because it does almost nothing against big hits. Didn't bother reading past the first paragraph because your obviously retarded
>>507671686>more options means its harderI'm not sure if you're trolling, being obtuse or straight up retarded.
>>507671554Its rare enough of a drop to not matter
>>507671610Witch's options are minions, physical, and chaos/chaos DoT, and shadow has never been the ED/Contagion guy. He isn't even supposed to be the hexblast guy, that's just because Trickster's good and mines are better than normal casting. I really can't see the 3rd ascendancy not being chaos themed.
>>507671753This is the dumbest shit I've ever read.
>>507671131See. Part of my issue is that people aren't giving GGG time to respond to feedback. I don't mind constructive criticism. GGG even encouraged us to give it since it's early access after all. But it's a freakin holiday and people just keep rehashing the same complaints that have been brought up since the last set of updates.We know that acts are far better balanced than maps. We know that one death per map sucks. We know that omen availability is almost nonexistent. We know that crafting is nondeterministic gambling with extra steps. We know people hate sanctum and ultimatum as ascendancy mechanics.Another post adding to the pile of 100s of posts bringing up these issues will do literally nothing, and at this point just comes across as ranting
>>507671909>NOOOOOOOOOO I REFUSE TO GET STATS OTHER THAN STRENGTH ARMOR IS BAD ARMOR IS BADFucking retard
Will they add more skill tiers/levels with the upcoming acts?
>>507671851I remember poe1's gold respecing costing a shit load more. I also remember the gold grind being a pain in the ass until you're late into maps and spec into specific strategies.
Can someone explain how maps workI'm supposed to be going up each time, right? Like 1 2 3 4 5? What happens if I die in one? What's the reason for going further? How many attempts do I have per map?I did some maps and I'm 4/10 on Cataclysm's Wake but I'm not sure what I'm actually accomplishing by doing this
>Afking in hideout and jerking off>Nigger messages me to buy something right as I am about to nutAUCTION HOUSE PLEASE JONATHAAAAAAAANNNNNN
>>507671131The real reason they go on holiday for two weeks after release is so they don't need to read all the kneejerk retard takes.
did they change something on the trade site? I swear every 10 minutes it's making me relog and it wasn't like that a week ago
>>507671446You are replying to a reddit pasta
>>507671848>armor do nothing vs big hits XDDGet literally one piece of ES you fucking retard. Armor has diminishing returns but creates an enormous buffer with the slightest bit of health investment. That's how it's always worked. You can't get life but ES is easier than ever for strength users to get because of shit like Grim Feast being overtuned and stats not mattering beyond reaching minimum requirements for gear.You can stack all the evasion and ES you want but unless you have obscene amounts you're going to die to oneshots 30% of the time or whatever Acrobatics left you at - probably more. Armor gets ES and becomes far tankier for the same investment
>>507671881yeah actually curses might not get a full ascendancy given that it's already in infernalist. chaos is already in chayula so i doubt we'll get a full chaos ascendancy in witch, it'll probably be a flexible one with dot stuff.
>>507672030just do what the quest line tells you to do and you'll figure it out
>>507671554It's not necessary, because everything is automatically highlighted when it's not explicitly hiddenBut you're right, your filter should have a special highlight for it, just in case something goes wrong
>Reach Geonor>Phase twoAh for fuck's sake, now I see what the people were complaining about.
>>507671557Post character
>>507671753>>507672007>umm akschually acrobatics is a different layer because I say so, as otherwise my dumb as fuck point makes no sense and now I need to bend reality with mental gymnastics to sustain itNah, you're the retarded one.
Going witch literally generates a chaos dot node that doesn't exist on the tree otherwise. It's pretty obviously the one.Monk zone has wither and poison nodes they can't really interact with so shadow will probably instead get a poison ascendancy that might incidentally improve chaos dots.
I don't wanna do Decay anymore, why the fuck is my Atlas full of it
>>507672253>evasion doesn't do something>get something that makes it do something it doesn't normally do for an investment>not a second layerGuess Cloak of Flames isn't a different layer either retard.
..........................................
>>507672208Chayula's chaos melee, and a bad one at that, nothing about the ascendancy supports chaos spells (shit, even chaos melee) or DoT.It'll probably be Occultist 2.0.
>>507672207Armor literally blocks 2% of damage against big hits even if you have tons of itYou fucking moron.
>BloodmageSo is the only good Bloodmage DD???
>>507671625That will be the sequel to factorio
>>507671095If you're going Quality + 2x Gems, you're literally gimping yourself in a lot of ways.
>>507672335I have ptsd from invisible shit on ground to the point when I kill a rare i gtfo and stand back for a few seconds before approaching loot.
Duelist
>>507672368Maybe 2% of the damage of +5 difficult pinnacle bosses if you're still running around in your level 50 gear you fucking troglodye. Get literally one piece of ES gear or shut the fuck up and keep dying on repeat like the retarded dog you are.
>>507672450Not coming
>>507672386you're basically limited to cheap spells for bloodmage, so yeah DD and physical spells for now.
>>507672301I've been saying that Pathfinder is the poison stacker ascendancy, Shadow is going to have the single big poison ascendancy (like mamba). I'm expecting lots of crit and no defenses.
>>507672335>no phys mitigationLMAO NICE BUILD
>>507669375I got around 100% pretty easily. Mostly I just replaced items that are pretty easily replaceable in the first place. I mostly only used my boots and rings for Movement Speed, Life and Resistance capping, so it was easy to get MF on them too. Now I'm on 100%, not including any map modifiers. Definitely worth it in my opinion.I still think MF should be removed from the game.
>>507672450I want to self insert as a gladiator
>>507672492Coming soon
>>507672467The math is literally out there. Holy fucking retard.
>>507672207>health investment>small amounts of armor create a huge bufferSmall amounts of armor di literally nothing against big hitsTwo absolutely insane ramblings points. You look even more retarded right now. Evasion es is absolutely more tanky again because entropy ensures you dodge at least a majority of one shots in boss encounters. With armor es you dodge none>think you get a larger pool with armor/es than ev/esHoly shit you are dumbPost your es pool on your armor character I'd like to have a laugh
>>507672386You could try crit flameblast but I feel like that would be very bad.
>tradecucks>divie drops>jewish noises>ssfchads>divie drops>use it on a jewelssf is freeing in so many way a tradecuckie jewlord will never understand.
>>507672516Well, I wanted to make a DD build, so guess I'll just play Bloodmage. It might be okay, right?
>>507671131>Come to the subreddit like a student who wants to learn, not a consumer who feels that spending 30 dollars and playing all day should be grounds for reward in its self.What an absolute cunt. Holy shit, when will reddit finally die? I'm actually seething at the end paragraph of that post.
>>507672652ok? it's one of the strongest builds atm, very tanky and DD clears entire screens.
I find it weird there's no actual fire ascendancy. There's Infernalist but that's more "demons from hell" than "the fire element".
>>507672541I don't know who defend magic find, it's fucking ridiculous. I'm on 200% but it really needs to go, absolutely kills the economy and incentivizes ass gameplay for rewards
>>507672635I tried SSF and I didn't like that so many builds were hidden behind luck and that now with how MF is king, it also means you need to spend days grinding instead of just getting a MF item on trade and getting items in seconds.I will admit though, not having to deal with trade is incredibly freeing. If they remove MF and take another look at drops to compensate for the removal of it, I will play SSF. I enjoyed single player in Grim Dawn, and I enjoyed playing SSF in POE 1 because of crafting, but I do not enjoy it now.
>>507672727>and DD clears entire screensNTA but I've played DD, no it doesn't its AoE isn't that big.
Fuck you my guy.
>>507672230Just tank it with armor and es bro. Evasion and dodging is useless there. :)
>150% Rarity>Barely get 3ex once every 4 mapsGod how can the endgame be so dogshit, I found more ex going through the Campaign
>>507672727Well shit, guess I'll start right now and hope I don't get nerfed in a week or two.>>507672861Warrior? Warrior was the only class I struggled on that boss with.
>be me>live oneshots because I understand layers and facetank everything>be you>cry because you dielollmaoActual retards in this thread who never once played true melee in poe1. Retards never tried Abyss or Delirium juicefests and it shows.
>>507672935Get better maps
How come casters have the best defense in the game ie ES? Where did the balancing go wrong?
>>507671357Alright I'll grab a build that I think looks cool and start playing.
>>507672935I only got 100% rarity and I get like 2 or 3 ex every map.I fucking hate MF. It's so obviously ruined this games economy. And it makes SSF feel like shit because the game is obviously balanced with it in mind.
>>507672732It does scale fire technically but it is really weird. We got two lightning/cold ascendancies.Templar will certainly get something that uses fire though. The weird thing is the STR zone that has very limited design space to be shared for the remaining ascendancies but a very clear fire direction. Probably third warrior rather than chieftain again though since maces do fire but axes seem like they'll be physical
>>507672962We're still waiting for you to post a screenshot of your defensives so we can laugh at you
>>507672962SUT UPI'M NOT CRYING
>>507672993I am running T13s because higher tiers refuse to drop as well.
minions+corpse explosion is so fun but holy shit the dreadnought is fucking my shit up rnalso the time it takes for corpses to explode is too fucking long
>>507672732druid and templar will have more fire shit, marauder has a fire ascendancy in poe1 too. we have like 1/3 of all ascendancies so far, don't worry. >>507672841it's fucking 3 meters with 20q. then add 40% more from the support, and 60+ from the passive tree. you're hitting 6+ meters, presence is 6 meters btw if you want a comparison point.
>>507673069Axes will definitely be bleed.
>>507673097Not whoever you're confusing me for but I'm enjoying facetanking Breaches. Pre-grim feast
why doesnt ritual pause the game
>>507673162infernalist or bm?
>>507673162Is this still getting nerfed or is GGG presumably done with it?
>>507673270infernalist for the doggoyou just knowdef started off stronger than my monk, but don't think i'll be able to scale as well with the way i like to play necro builds but we'll see how cruel difficulty goes
LET ME SKIP THE FUCKING ACTS IF I REROLL
>>507672897Didn't need to, just needed to DPS him faster.>>507672953No Witch, I fucked up at the very end because it went too long and he got the ring of fog going at the same time as blood and ice spikes. I got him on the next run before he could set it off.
>>507672998They took all the offensive power and life off the tree and put it on gear. They left us on the tree tho
>>507673448feel the weight lil nigga
>>507673448Go back to d4
>>507671426>because this issue has existed for over 10 years and the community has already long resolved itYeah, it has resolved it by utilizing mechanics that don't exist in POE2 (full conversion to ele or chaos, endurance charges, other sources of PDR that don't get armourbroken).>Just not if you're a fucking retard who refuses to take anything else on top.Stop pretending you have made a good armour-based character in POE2, you haven't. You just believe that it exists, but armour is objectively a turd in POE2, and investing into it on equipment or the tree is a total waste of points for the most part (barring a few mechanics like the glove node, or nodes that give you both armour and something else and you just get the armour as a secondary benefit).>You haven't gotten out of the PoE1 campaign so your opinion doesn't matter.Do you want me to log in and post my level 100 hardcore Settlers character with 4s?I'm vain enough to do it again. I do it every few threads. Just say the word.
>>507668213>Broken armor doesn't contribute to Bleed Magnitude because it (modifies) Hit Damage, but Bleed is based around the (base) Hit damage of the attack that triggered it and not based on the modified damage after the fact, so Shock (flat Damage increase) ends up dealing more Bleed Damage but not the skills/debuffs that directly impact PhysDamageThis system is fucking weird. So my takeaway is that the game calculates the base "Hit Damage" completely seperate from Hit Damage modifiers, which checks things seperate from Convertion damage, and once damagebis converted, their damage types THEN get damage type modifiers?Why doesn't Armor Break contribute to Bleed? It's no wonder Bleed builds feel like shit. How does Bleed work with skills that also convert the PhysDamage to EleDamage? Fuck, how do damage modifiers that give additional flat damage impact everything, and when?This system is a nightmare to jump hoops around until they come out with an exact order of operations for their math.
>>507673448You can finish the campaign in 10h if you know what you're doing.
>>507673182>it's fucking 3 meters with 20q. then add 40% more from the support, and 60+ from the passive tree. you're hitting 6+ metersI didn't say that it was tiny just that it wasn't clearing screens. It hits maybe half the screen would be my guess.
Really love getting pushed around by white mobsI can really feel their weight
>>507673454Ahh, he was easy as fuck on my witch. I went full into minions though, which made pretty much the entire game smooth. Guess there is a reason all the HCSSF players are doing it.
>>507673603full qualitied with both aoe nodes? more like 70% of a widescreen, considering its damage the AOE is disgusting.
>>507673701>I went full into minions though, which made pretty much the entire game smooth.I'm went pure pyro.
>witch dialogueHahaha, this is great. She's like some chuuni retarded child. I love it.
can the maximum range of a projectile be changed?

Why does ranger hate men?
>>507673990they keep asking her for carries
>>507673990she just hasn't met the right one yet
>>507667035>people shit on D4 because the build diversity is bad>PoE2 is by far worse>nobody brings this up???????
>>507674120what do you mean, that damn picture gets posted in every single thread because people always bring it up. and since day 1 huge streamers like mathil have been crying about how bad the diversity is
>>507674120it's a beta and half the classes and skills aren't even in the game nigger
>>507672301Yeah the passover tree starting areas changing depending on class is a giant middle finger to any sort of off meta build crafting. It's basically a way to ensure you stay within-archetype when you pick an ascendancy
Which anon is doing the 4th ascendancy boosting? After failing twice I can't be bothered again.
lmao
>>507674096I'm him
>>507674224The game has been in development for like 10 years. If you think shit is unbalanced now with only 10% of the stuff in it (it's more like 80%) wait until more shit gets added and it gets even harder for them to balance.The gap between normal builds and meta builds will be even bigger
>>507672467How does es gear improve armor mitigation exactly?
I'll bite and try to figure out and armor es build. See if this guy is cooking or retarded. Have a titan laying around that I'm not doing anything with
>>507674387It works because ES is busted, not because armor is remotely good
>>507674362nta but for the same reason armor mitigation benefits health dude. If you can get 50% armor your health is doubled. same shit for es but es is the only source of health scaling and you can overcharge it easily
>>507674387block + ES should be good. forget armor though.
>>507674387>I'll bite and try to figure out and armor es buildAnd you'll come out realizing that an evasion/ES grim feast/ghost dance/wind dancer build completely outperforms it completely in every scenario, many small hits, one big hit, many big hits, genuinely any.
>>507674464You mean like how armor in PoE1 was also dogshit so everyone ran Lightning Coil and Taste of Hate because it was busted?
>>507673739You're seriously overestimating its AoE, it only has a 2.6 base.I've got the standard DD crit tree and magnified effect, it's at 3.6 (3.1 with tree no magnified effect). There are two small clusters even remotely close, one's 3 points away (27% inc) and the other's 7 away (66%). You've got too much crit and minion shit health to hunt down for that shit.
>>507674349They don't want you to experiment. All the strong builds are the cookie cutter dev created archetypes. So just do that and stop bitching
>need to run maps to get precursors>maps are wasted around the tower trying to get themCool mechanic.
>>507674510>if you can get 50% armor your health is doubledNot how it works retard stop posting
>>507674656Sorry those nodes are 3(+3) for 27%, 6(+7) for 66%.
>>507673959Don't worry about it. Look at it this way, no matter what I do, it'll never be as bad as being one of the 18 million "I'm sorry for your loss" basic bitch brainlets that exist in every community of every game.
>>507674656you're forgetting the 46% cluster that's on the way to the shadow stuff, which you want because that's where all the good crit nodes are. also why are you getting minion health?
>>507674224uhm nigger-kun, the skills from the classes that are missing will not improve build diversity. skills are locked behind weapon types.I can't use sunder on a 2handed axe or 2 handed flail.I understand that you're brown and your whole life revolves around a computer game on the slim chance that it can make you forget for 1 second you're a brownoid but still, you have to stop going full retard every time someone points out a flaw with the game.
how come you need more defenses for T1 in PoE2 than t5 in PoE1

>>507674510>If you can get 50% armor your health is doubled.
>>507674985Top tier re*dit post, here is your gold kind misclicking stranger!
Armour should increase your player power or whatever GGG calls it, allowing you to just barge through mobs pushing them around if you have enough armour. It wouldn't solve the defence problem but it'd be fun to just barge through mobs like an implicit phasing
I should be able to not build any defensive layers and live every mechanic or the game is broken.
Muted for two days for posting the yoshikage kira copy pasta
>>507675107You play QOTF deadeye or temporalis or you dont play the game.These builds farm like 20 to 30 times your speed. Probably more.
I feel like dodge button only exists to excuse the existence of one shot boss attacks like slams which makes it feel like band aid, its kinda useless in actual maps
>>507674930>why are you getting minion health for the skill that does damage based on minion health?
>>507674947poe build diversity has never come down to what weapon you use, it's always been about class and ascendency choice, there is literally nothing stopping you from playing sorc with a mace to use melee skills.

>>507674780Just run forward until you get a map, then b line to closest tower
>>507675232No idea what that is, sounds like they did the right thing.
>>507675361Billshit its always about broken item combos. Never about ascendancies. Its just which one exploits item combos the best.

>>507674974Game is overtuned for people that figured out the game before it launched
>all these retards talking about armor being bad out of suddenyou guys are mind controlled by kripp
>>507675584>it effectively boosts your hpNo it ineffectively boosts your hp. Hope this helps
How do you guys level new characters? I've found the early game to be unbearably slow for most classes, so I just use Pillar of the Caged God and then stack low level STR items like Meginord's Girdle which gives me 50 STR. Then stack STR on the passive tree. I don't like to level forever like this, so I usually just respec the second I unlock it. Which is also cheap so early. Usually this is where classes start to feel better too. Like Warrior just gets his Aura which lets him clear properly. Witch gets her better summons around there. Etc. etc.
>>507675609We've been saying it from day one
>>507675493>Billshit its always about broken item combos. Never about ascendancies.i don't think you've ever played poe1 for a meaningful amount of time in your entire life, also you are just pretending like skills don't have a definitive best weapon in poe1, you are not playing earthshatter with maces/sceptres/staves in that game it's always axes, the build diversity was whether you played duelist or marauder.
Is the 4 trial sekhamas hard?
>>507675504Most of us are using the level 14 aura (sacrifice?) that lets us use minions (Skele Brutes) as corpses for DD targets.
>>507675686>How do you guys level new characters? I've found the early game to be unbearably slow for most classes,The most important thing early game, at least for casters is getting gear with "Extra skill level" on it. If you get like 2 extra skill levels you just breeze through everything.
BOO!
>>507675790didn't know that was a thing. the single target must be terrible though. do you swap out all the minion stuff for single target bonestorm on bosses?
>>507675609We needed something to pivot to now that the house of cards is falling and people have spent their 10 minutes of hate on every other shit aspect of the game including build diversity, pigeon holing, rarity, one portal, towers, es, archmage, temporalis, party play, link skills inextricably being carried over, melee big shit, health big shit, maps too big, speed too slow, charges being meaningless color swapped orbs, muh stat stacking as the only chase mechanic, weapon swap speed, witch hunter is trash, lmao 5% cull, etc.But we could retread any of those topics if you like?
>>507675930Haha you can't frighten me. I know you're just a Monk pretending to have armour!
>>507675686pretty muchspam relics or gamble for a good weapon and just breeze through it
Why is quin always ordering food? Doesnt he have a stay at home wife? Is she not cooking and cleaning for him??
So what's the actual armour mitigation formula?
>>507674978fextralife is so bad I filtered it out of all google searches.
>>507675686I just savor it. The campaign is pretty fun, your choices matter, the music is nice, the bosses are generally fun to fight.Gearing-wise it feels like you're dropped straight into endgame, it doesn't feel like you're just putting on whatever just to rush through the campaign. Picking your pieces well and getting good drops actually makes you either own or suck.
>>507675686>Pillar of the Caged Godskekme too. shit is busted early game. I one shot most bosses early on with that. then just respec around level... 12 to 14 ish.
>>507675978No you just keep killing your reviving minions

>>507675978You have a 75% chance to conserve corpses and usually have a few clerics helping revive. It can be an issue if you get unlucky or don't have the dps yet but you just wait for them to revive again and bobs your uncle.

Does anyone have an 4chanx alternative for chrome that still works? This site is shit to use without extensions
>>507675686poe2s endgame is currently dogshit id rather finish act 3 cruel and make a new character to do the story again than play endgame in poe2 its that fucking dogshit, hell id rather play last eshit or dogshit4 than poe2's endgame the fuck happened to poe1s god tier endgame you fucking retards you forget about that shit?

>>507676356>>507676181>29 times (make that 30 times) in a month
>Armor Break doesn't impact Bleed Damage at allSo what's even the point to Armor Brrak on Merc if every single built is about converting or magnifying PhysDamage to something else? Seems like everything that involves Armor Break is only good for Physical Damage builds with literally nothing else going for them.
>>507676181I enjoyed ssf in poe1 but it feels shit in poe2 without crafting autism, being able to target farm some cool build enabling uniques and such. Even d2 ssf felt more rewarding

>>507676575You forgot the "prease understand"
>>507676467I don't know about Merc, but I've been playing a Crossbow Warbringer where I use the armorbreak ascendancy to passively break them while I use Explosive Bolts, which trigger armour explosion which I convert to cold using Blueflame Bracers Goldcast Cuffs, which lets me use Herald of Ice for even more giga chain explosions.

>>507665468Duelist = swords and shieldsHuntress = spears and crossbows
>>507676467My big question is if armor break actually reduces the enemy armor or if it's some dumb box that you just consume for other skills.

>Act 1>The Grelwood>Dark>hear wolves in the distance>see glowing yellow eyes and only a bare outline of enemies in the distanceThis shit is utter kino. Act 1 is superior to all other acts.

>>507676181I play hcssf but havent reached past act4 yetHaving fun experimenting with different startsMy goal is to simply get a few building blocks in my head for leveling in the future per corner of the tree
>>507676575>poe1 god tier endgameits literally become everything they hated.nothing has value, every build is a glob of every mechanic and monsters are target dummies
>>507676706Huntress has an ascendancy with a bow signature weapon, so I don't think it's crossbows (but there is probably no difference in practice)

>>507676898Huntress has a ballista(attack totems) ascendancy that also has crossbow nodesOne of them was teased to be "you can use any melee skill with crossbows" which I highly doubt will make it into the gameAnother one is survivalist which is projectile alternative oriented giving you the option of a meta skill in the form of greater multiple projectiles or greater volleyThe last one is a shapeshifting/jungle themed cat form, but this may be changed because they shifted shapeshifts to northwest of the treeRanger gets a roa mount/maraketh ascendancy as third but no clue whats up with that
I jsut came back from the holidays and catching up on some stuff streamers have been ding for a weekThis game is complelty broken isnt it? Kinda sucks the fun out of it for me, I'll never be able to catch up to those ppl who have been spamming maps with rarity for weeks now.Worst of all I tried some offmeta build starting out. Lightning Quarsterstaff ChronomancerHow do you deal wth that poeg? Just go SSF and replay campaign with all weapons types to learn em?? I wanted to at leat fight all pinnaccle bosses but I heard you have to grind their "keys" for hundres of hours just to get one attempt.
>>507677240Huntress sounds kind of fucking boring.
>>507677257I just rerolled more offmeta characters until I found something really good
>>507676768It does increase PhysDamage dealt it seems, but with the way PoE2 does it's math, it seems basically pointless for anything the Merc wants to be doing, which begs the question why he even has an Armor Break skill + tree if both Armor Break and +PhysDamage multipliers do fuckall for 90% of his kit (with the remaining 10% being free auto attacks and an ability that straps Armor but doess less damage than Frozen + Frag Rounds).Merc being all about split damage means all modifiers in thebPassive Tree only really give partial bonuses unless the Passive flat out says "Do More Damage" without any other conditions needed to be met (and even those aren't always the case).
>>507677257literally wait a week for the patch
>>507677257caring about trade in a early access game is peak mental illness
>>507677358shouldn't you be too busy struggling to get through Cruel SSF to be shitposting here?
>>507677460youre literally mad about the economy of a game before it's released
this slop is raw
>>507677059>NOOOOO STOP PREVENTING ME FROM USING MY "looks up your post history" REDDIT TACTICTS AGAINST YOU!Go back
>>507677257First of all, ignore trade all together. That doesn't mean you have to stop playing on trade, but treat it as something secondary. Something you can maybe use to help you gear. Set prices to one ex to start with, and slowly increase it the more wealth you have. If you can stomach using it for an hour, you can usually find some amazing items that are dirt cheap. I'm on t15's on my Warrior and my budget is like 10 Ex. The only thing that cost more than 1Ex if I didn't find it or craft it myself is the Cloak of Flames. Which was 2 Ex with an almost perfect roll on it and open rune sockets.

>hireling skill datamined, ally nodes in mercenary>mercenary is getting a companion as a third ascendancyhow do we feel about this?
>>507677240Which begs the question of why they are focusing on ranged ascendancies if spear is the signature weapon for the base class. It's just sounding like ranger 2.0.
>use a chance orb on armor based gloves>game says it can't upgrade the item in rarityWhat the fuck? What is this saying exactly? IS THERE NOT A SINGLE PAIR OF ARMOR BASED UNIQUE GLOVES IN THIS FUCKING GAME?! Is that what its saying!?
>>507678221I was just thinking mana guardian templar would fucking wreck with this retarded OP es system right now
Here is my solution to defence>Armour is ward now and negates a flat amount of damage but to compensate armour has a % negative movement speed modifier, the more armoured you are the slower you move>Evasion is basically the same but everytime you dodge your player actually moves 1m in a random direction (its because you're dodging)>Energy Shield gets cut by 90% but it never stops regenerating like a pseudo recoup mechanicHire me GGG

>>507677240I'm a ballistafag and I'm not looking forward to her ballista ascendency release because it's going to make all my gear 10x more expensive also because I don't trust GGG to make a ballista ascendancy for any character, it's probably going to be the case deadeye is a much better ballista user anyways
>>507678523>a girl + dog ascendancyWe already have one of those you know
>>507678620AH really depends on player numbers if we're honest. Trade works because there's not a huge number of players. Whole shit show breaks apart if there's 4x players. Probably why people are having so much trouble buying shit now, it's already sold
Just remove trade from the game. It's never been good.
my build is like a jenga tower, if I upgrade a piece and it doesn't have at least the same type of modifiers it's all overif I fuck up attributes even by a point my skills are gone. mana regen and resistances are also just right

Tell me a single reason why this game shouldn't have an auction house when the entire trade system relies on a third party website that nearly identically functions as an auction house only with more of a hassle to trade.
>>507678856Nah
Give everyone free increased 10% movement speed modifier.Give everyone free increased item rarity drop 100% modifier and then nerf it's effect in half (so you have only 50% actually compared to the current one and +100% in gear will give you only +50%, so it's harder to stack for a good effect). And make it so it doesn't affect currency.

Normies can’t understand the thrill of hunting the hog. Night spent chasing an over amphetamined Bex around the bean bag forts. Her squealing and gibbering, pouring sweat and on the verge of seizing. Your friends build up an intoxicating, delerious state with Maori chantings at the sidelines, hitting the Bex-toy with brooms if she tries to escape. Chris would be giggling and laughing as the waves of methamphetamine pleasure seem to harmonize with the droning Maori verses. He runs through the bean bag maze fat and portly, with his viagra powered penis a driving rod for the weasel. Sweat gushing down his face around his unfocused eyes he laughs and chortles until he gasps "Found you!" . The Bexhog screeches defensively but Chris is upon her in seconds. His penis thrusting blindly into her flank, leg, stomach and ribs unconcerned about anything but the motion. Eventually serendipity finds her mouth and the Bexhog Slampig is placated, suckling contently on Chris’s dehydrated dick.
>>507679239After playing PoE2 it just made me appreciate Last Epoch a lot more and it really shows what a badly designed game PoE2 actually is.Only problem is that they abandoned Last Epoch despite the fact it's not even close to be fully done.
>>507674120this should be obvious but an ascendency class is not a build on its own so the graph is actually useless
>>507678606probably. i hope not. it's clunky as fuck to operate
>>507679507that just means ggg can steal from LE cause they will just continue to update poe2

Did they actually release an ARPG without a "bladestorm" spin2win skill in 2024?
>>507675704Maces were used before the changes to axes made them better. One hand maces are used in strength stacking builds, not axes. Staves male fine melee builds don't know what you're fucking talking about. Also you could at least easily go ele or phys impale or crit etc. Poe2 has none of that diversity since conversion has been neutered in the womb and tons of shut is just plain non functional
>other classes can shit out damage non-stop>merc has to reload and wait for nade cooldownsAre classes designed by different people?
Let's see here.>trade is fucked by RMT jeets and chink bot farmsPlay SSF, aquire gear through orbs and gamba.>endgame is about screen clear and nothing else mattersGuarantee this will change. They did not design an entire game around not doing this for the endgame to devolve into doing this. >1 try on bosses and maps is badThis will either change or people will get better and this will no longer be a big issue.>boss fragment farming is bad with 1 attemptLegit complaint and I agree something needs to give here. Probably just up the drop rates of boss attempts in high tier maps and problem solved. >mapping is boringAdd in mini bosses in normal maps. Get rid of bullshit rare modifiers. Make juicing for mechanics easier and make the endgame mechanics not 1-shot screen clear bullshit. This will largely be solved by slowing things down as stated earlier. >melee sucksSounds like this is a solved problem in PoE1 and the teams just need to touch tips. Make it so you can move while meleeing and that'll solve a ton of issues. >1-shot mechanics as the only way to kill youThis is a core issue to the genre. The rebalance as stated earlier will help this, but I think the game needs a form of 1-shot protection. Make it so any hit within a timeframe can only take so much of your life, have that scale with armor or some shit. Catch is that if you aren't on full life you can still get gibbed, it just won't take you from 100 to 0. You could still be gunned down by volleys or rapid hits, but single instances of spike damage won't gib you. Risk of Rain 2 has insane damage number scaling like this game does, has a OSP mechanic, and people still die. It isn't as abusable as people think and is a very smart mechanic. Anything else I missed?
>>507679856Quarterstaff has a spin2win skill.Nobody uses it.
Bro the vacation is probably at least until new years and then they fix shit in snail tempo.Actual updates will be drip feeded over maby month.God i hate this shitty early access.
>>507679887>this weapon type was used because it was the best before another weapon type was considered the bestlmao
>>507679360They do fuckall damage since they don't scale with your weapon phys and they die instantly when hit with a stray projectile or mob melee. It's possible that they're better with heavy setup investment / totem nodes on the tree but they can't be made decent in conjunction with utilizing other crossbow and grenade skills.Hell I literally tried using one just to stand on it for font of blood/font of rage and it just dies too quick even for that.

>>507680663Post a webm or screenshot of doing a t0 pinnacle boss with your armour boss.Oh wait, you didn't even finish cruel.
>i haven't gotten a new piece of gear since cruel act 3
>>507680636They manually update divine to exalt ratio for search function, that's why the website still thinks 1 div is like 10 exalts when it sorts items
>>507680704I don't even care to remember which table that piece of shit infests
>>507679139It's not like they're above being paid.
>>507680598>>507680674like a chaos orb ?
>>507680730Each stat is either a suffix or a prefix
so GGG is going to fix poe2 in january and release poe1s new league in february and you expect me to play both at the same time
>>507680113>The trade system is great. If anything there should be more friction.Agreed. If anything they should add some mechanic where you have a 5% chance to get a different item than what you're trading with someone for, just so there are some stakes and weight to the trade system.
>>507680663Armour is le bad because it forces you in shit life and leaves you without defence against big hits, its just bad game design period
>>507678330Advanced and Expert bases don't have uniques because they're just placeholder for act 4-6 and map bases.
Huntress should have been a sexxxxxooooo caramel tomboy tribal girl. Making her blond cause muh D2 amazon when we have ranger is boring
>>507680887>50/50let's goooooooo fuck deterministic crafting just fucking gamble everything lmao poggers chat clip that
Why wouldn't I sell Divines for 70 exalts and not roll gear myself?
>>507680761But it's automatically updated in currency exchange (based on offers)...
we need more currency sink
>>507680987>caramel tomboy tribal girlBro your Sorceress?
>>507680906What does that even mean.
>>507681001those are better odds than most of poe1's crafting. the tool exists, the question is whether it's worth using in this case.
>>507680965>GGG added diminishing returns on Armor, but NOT on damageAbsolute madmen.
Is the clear on DD bloodmage rly bad, or should i go infernalist and play generic minion shitIm on HC if that matters
>>507681116have a weapon swap for AOE. the clear is absolutely fine
>another tier 12 map with a boss>zero exalted, regal or vaal orb drops>no good rare drops>entire map was corpse explosions from Narnia I give up.
>>507680946No no, you need to spend a trade orb on a base, and you can search trade for those bases with 1/2/3 stat filters based on the rarity of the consumed base. Only up to 10 results can be displayed.
>>507681116depends entirely on your definition of bad, minions will likely clear a lot slower
>>507680908PoE2 is not even getting fixed on release and PoE1 will get breach 3.0 and that league is gonna be dead on week 2it was the most retarded decision to seperate the two games and also want to work on both, they specifically decreased their release schedule for PoE1 leagues because quality was suffering from the tight schedule but they think they can do twice of what they did for PoE1 in the same time
>>507681116i hear the leveling is shit, i suggest foregoing minions while leveling and only picking them up later in the campaign when they start becoming decently meaty.
>>507681116I played HCSSF and used bonestorm on bosses and single target, and then used hexblast the blasphemy for general clear. Once you get your third ascendancy you will get more than twice the crit chance on your hexblast with the 15% base crit passive.
>>507681116No? DD is goated for clear. Spec into corpse conservation, kill 1 mob, use the skill that lets you use minions as corpses and blow the entire screen up.
>>507681029Currency exchange is ingameIf you search for something on the website you'll notice the prices go up to 9 ex, then it's 1 divine, then it's like 15 ex
GGG will be making a massive mistake if they release Huntress before Duelist. Ranger and Huntress are very similar thematically and looks wise. Also Huntress is the only remaining female class not in the game, wouldn't it be better to hold off on her until later?
Since GGG expanded so much for PoE2 and since we are on holiday break right now, who amongst you is a GGG employee, serious answers only
>>507680965all big phys hits are designed to be dodge rolled not tanked. the bad design currently is ES. Once they change it around, ES wont be able to survive the physical boss slams that armor will.
>>507681387>GGG will be making a massive mistakeLike that's stopped them before.
>>507681024Because exalting gear is worrhless
>>507681387ranger is so favored by GGG they're releasing classes similar to ranger before anything else. it is what it is.
What do you think the solution will be for GGG in regards to the whole armor+life vs Energy shield mana debacle? I honestly don't see a world in which they can handle it and not fuck over energy shield somehow. I think it would go a long way if they view ES as a life alternative and not a armor or evasion alternative. ES to me, as a person who has never used it, is just life but light blue. It has different mechanisms for sure but if it runs out, you usually die shortly after. So effectively its life. Right? What am I missing?
>>507681383The webpage uses the same currency exchange as in game. Just check bulk part
>>507681387They released Sorc and Witch which are basically the same class at the same time
>>507681416I was on a freelance playtester contract once...for 3.0 tho
>>507681463You're not happy with your +5 EV +7 ES?
Holy fucking shit I am sick of maps being fucking mazes.Just leveling my new character and I'm struggling to keep myself from rage quitting on some maps. Most of the time it's fine, but then I'll enter shit like this and it's dead end after dead end.
>>507681430Armour does nothing for big boss slams you dumbfuck
maps? more like napsmods? more like nods>dude add nods to your naps so you fall asleep faster in this dogshit endgame
>>507681387It doesn't seem like they are thinking about variety at all. This is probably more about their testing than anything else. Maybe the game's success will make them reconsider how they handle the rest of EA.
>>507681478>What am I missing?how easy it is to get 8k mana and 2k mana regen/second, with EB/MoM so you just facetank and regen everything. it would cost 10x more to get that amount of regen for health.
>>507681070Not dark enough, not tomboy enough. At least do a different hair color, she is way too similar to ranger
>>507680732Is that why armor became meta when they buffed the formula and determination? Because it was irrelevant? Patiently will await your cope
>>507678805>remove tradepoe trade is a containment zone for literal hundreds of thousands of mentally ill peopleimagine how many school shootings there would be if ggg just deleted trade league one day
>>507681387They will release Huntress before Duelist because theya) worked on her a lot more than Duelistb) worked on spears a lot more than swords/axesc) probably thought all the shit from PoE1 is gonna be easier and faster to import later on without bugs for release than something entirely new
>>507681523It only gets worse lmao.
Anon from one of the previous threads who finally reached maps.Is there anything major i can change? Yeah i know i could go with lightning focused or nades focused build but for these particular skills?https://files.catbox.moe/ti4upf.mp4
>>507681523stop looking at the minimap so much, kill monsters, loot and repeat.
>>507681687uhh bro your resistances?
>>507681430Poe1 has fortify and tons of "x taken as %phys" which helps. I don't really disagree with armor shrugging off minor hits but still having to dodge the one shot skills, but it's currently in a weird place where you just fucking die to all the ele/chaos damage flying around. On top of the fact that melee SHOULD be tankier than ranged.
>>507681607>>507681478forgot to add, with everlasting gaze (1 div) you now have like 3-4k ES as well, on top of your assloads of manahealth regen. so 10k total health pool and fuckloads of regen for relatively cheap. it makes the game feel like PoE1.
>>507680729I don't have a problem with damage conversion, I have a huge issue with DPS in endgame>nades are 75% of base attack speed>you have to wait for them to prime>you have to wait for them to reloadI can shoot 4 nades faster than I reload 1. The initial burst is strong but afterwards my DPS falls by like 70%, terrible for breach and endgame bosses. Started a monk and I'm killing campaign bosses before they even get to use all of their attacks since the beginning of act 2 because I never need to wait before using my skills.
>>507681494Sorc and Witch are different enough fantasy wise that it's more acceptable.>more traditional elementalist focused female magevs>minion focused with dark/demon magic and occult stuffRanger and Huntress are both strong independent blonde women that hunt things and are close to nature.
>>507681526>armor formula updated to current poe1>boss damage increased>ES cut in halfES should never have been able to tank anything because its the king of sustain through recharge in bosses.all boss slams (ex xesht flick) should with no exception one shot a PURE es character. if an ES character wants to survive they should either git gud or go hybrid armor/es to bring the damage into a survivable range.we'll see if ggg has the balls to follow up on their vision or not.
>>507681387The gallows selection (Duelist and Shadow) will be released before they add the other classes.
>>507681478I fully expect a 50% reduction on ES overall
Oof huntress is a bit ugly...
>>507681687You'll get one shot by everything unless you fix your resistances. When you can get a better weapon.
>>507681478Blood magic converts mana into health
>>507681863huntress isn't a dyke though.
>>507681687>this game sucks, i keep getting 1shot
>>507681798the obvious problem is that we are led to believe that Armour/Evasion/ES are somehow the same even though armour for some fucking reason unlike the other two only works on physical damage, evasion gets the option to work against spells, why doesnt armour get the option to work against elemental(fully, not the shitty 10%/20% stats)
>>507681890>armor updated to poe1 formula>increas boss damage so armor does nothing againLmao fucking retard
>>507681785>>507681934>>507682005That's not what i was curious about,yes i know i have to fix the resistances but i was curious about the skills,nodes and dps mostly if it's right overall or not.
>>507682048>why doesnt armour get the option to work against elementalit does though, there's a unique that does literally what you're asking for.
>>507681863Idc spears are a fun weapon and huntress is directly thematically tied to the lore of the world much better than ranger ever will be.
>>507681890Why even care about boss one shots when rarest are far more dangerous and you can just one shot the pinnacles anyway?
>>507681890ES was ALWAYS more tankier, but harder to make going. And it should stay that way, life based characters just need bigger pool, fortify
>>507682128>unique>steals an item slot which could be used for other build enabling items>meanwhile acrobatics is a single passive point thats near all the evasion parts of the tree anywayssure seems like they are similiar power
>>507677674>so this is the power of HC...W O A H
>>507682128And it has no armor on it and won't fix the problems armor has against big phys hits. Armors problem isn't elemental damage it's phys damage. That's why people use cloak of flame and not your dogshit unique
>>507681641Armor didn't become meta. It's stacking armor with buffed auras that became meta. Just like stacking evasion and grace/vaal grace became op when they buffed auras.
>>507682080It looks like you're having a schizo split between some nades and some xbows. Stick with one and use extra passives for survival. The bittom right arm/ev one was best imho, even has a node that gives extra ev for each arm on your gloves.
>>507682265acrobatics has a huge negative effect too, the chest probably removes less armor than acrobatics removes evasion
>>507677674>There's people here who fall for this bait
>your body on trade league Just take the SSF pill.
hope we go to monk's monastery sometime in act 5-6He is a fun enough class that he deserves some story significance like warrior gets in act 1 and huntress most likely will get in act 2
>>507682332Armour is meta because you can get 50k with minimum investment, and then layer your defence. And yeah determination is huge.
>>507682327elemental damage is also a problem for armor, which is why warrior has some +max res in the tree, warrior doesn't get as much raw hp as ES.
>>507678856Yeah
this game will be fixed once we get poe2.ninja
>finally found two citadels next to eachother>head over a bit>now found the thirdthank christ
Every streamer had a logout pedal in PoE 1. Now they have pause pedals KEK it's funny watching their pedal fail during pineapples and they don't know what to do.
>>507682562This game will be fixed once they completely change the math holding everything together.
What if they added a passive node where if you're above 90% hp a single attack can't take you below 1% hp and it gives -70% armour.
>>507682580a-any tips? I've done like 200 maps and I've seen nothing. not even one of those fancy unique XP maps I've seen other anons post
>>507682065the point is not to make bosses do nothing to an armor character the point is to make a slam like that survivable for an armor character so you have to burn a potion or avoid more shit to live.pure ES should not survive a slam, they have traded all defense to be able to recharge their full life pool in secondspure armor should live something like that with 20-30% lifehybrid should barely survive but again they have ES recharge which (should) reward investing into multiple defenses
>>507682484I already did. But ended up quitting. I was on t15's too. I just felt like the struggle wasn't worth it. MF being as powerful as it was just annoyed me. So I decided that if they're not gonna change it, I'll just join trade and stack MF too. I got more currency on my three day old character than my week old character
>>507682628pick one direction and only travel in that direction
>>507682484What exactly was the point of doryani putting this in every room
Is it possible to get +15 max res to all with the gemling ascendancy? That sounds incredibly powerful
>>507682562Unironically this + PoB 2. Unfortunately it will be broken again by Jonathan removing all those builds from the game. Ruetoo's "bow pconc" is just silly and shouldn't work.
>>507682332>armor didn't become meta>except that it did, in fact become metaShut the fuck up retard. Everyone was running around with brass dome and determination, or a crafted armor evasion chest piece with res and determ effect for the last 3+ fucking years don't piss on me and tell me it's raining.Even after the neffs armor evasion gear or evasion/es gear are the only two surviving meta choices because suppression and armor or es/suppression are the only surviving defensive strategies that didn't get absolutely shit on. And if you want well throw max res stacking on with armor too. Only now that they nerfed determ again are people other than ranger pivoting to lightning coil
>>507682617>Get nailed by big hit>Immediately followed up by Ignite/Poison/Bleed/Followup attack and die anywaysAlso does fuckall about mobs.
>>507682594>Every streamer had a logout pedal in PoE 1.I recall several having screen detector programs that would instantly log you out at <10% hp as well.
>>507682628Check the fog, you might see them peeking out like towers do
>>507682484I don't see much point in playing SSF until they add some actual crafting into the game like they have in PoE 1. Right now it is just a gamble simulator and trade league has bad luck protection.
>>507682628people say to just go in a direction and they're right. i hit one, then just off to the right on a separate land mass was the second. went to the left, on another disconnected land mass, and there was the third. i hear "7 screens away" thrown around and i'd say that's about right.
Should I start the Kingsmarch stuff immediately in POE1 or wait until I'm more levelled up?
>>507682340Am i wrong about using flash and poison nades for added utility?I'm not sure i understand the last part.
>>507682594Those people aren't playing hardcore, just gaming the system trying to "win" in a game that isn't competitive, absolutely pathetic is what I would call it.
>>507682723>95% Res>Still die in 2 hits with no damage to make it up
>>507682196>one shot pinnaclesthis is going away retard, you are playing the easiest most broken version of the game to ever exist.>>507682230ES should only be 'tanky' if you are good at the game and can avoid damage to use recharge. it should never be able to tank a slam over armor, it should never have more than 50% of a pool over life and even thats is a bit much
>>507682785do they look different than towers when peaking through fog? do you happen to have a pic?
Why did they turn Deli into a shittier Blight anyways
>>507682707To hide his ex orbs inside
>>507682634>certain build shouldn't survive a mechanic in a clusterfuck boss fight with only 1 portal and require grinding for 20 hrs to accessFucking kill yourself retard
>DOOD THE MAP GOES OUT IN ALL DIRECTIONS FOOOOOOOOOREVER IT'S SO INSANE DOOD WOW WHAT GREAT GAME DESIGN!!!!!!!!>the strictly correct choice in every scenario is to go straight in 1 direction and never go other directionsBRAVO, JONATHAN!!!!! BRAVO!!!!!!!!!
>>507681478>What am I missing?Nothing makes sense if you intentionally reduce it to some absurdity as you did.
>>507681387Druid and Huntress are almost finished.
>>507682880If you're ssf then the shipments can come in handy but I wouldn't ever stop to put more effort into that than progression.
anyone that thinks cloak of flame is staying in the game as it stands is a gigantic retard.so many uniques were ported 1 to 1 because they ran out of time, its literally a placeholder
>>507682914I'm thinking of going for that anyway, use cloak of flame as well, get double bonuses from strength then go for a lot of damage on the tree.
>>507682048I agree it's retarded. Poe1 kinda fixes this by having phys conversion on the passive tree and fortify
>>507682885You should be clearing screens as fast as possible not thinking about utility.I meant bottom left on passive tress, left of the attribute star
>>507683005plenty of maps have clues as to where to go. follow the road, go middle (bog)... you just don't know them yet because we haven't played the campaign 20x yet.
>>507682916Then there is no reason going ES if its just worse life, please stay away from game balance
>>507681387Huntress is one of the classes that has been in development and has been shown off since the beginning. They would be making a massive mistake by not releasing it sooner rather than later.
>>507683001So why should it apply to armored melee ans not the ranges AoE spamming DPS tard?
is she right?
I don't get the story, act 1-2 was a bit grounded, chasing after the cunt (heh) and the beast she has. Then in act 3 we goes to a jungle.... to do stuff then travels back in time to kidnap someone that knows the reason you are back in time for some reason...?And why didn't we just kill the queen responsible for the cataclysm when we traveled back in time instead of.... kidnapping that scientist?
>>507683001if you decide to make a shit build using only one defensive "layer" then yes you should fucking die to a boss slam.prepare to cry alot once the patch hits your awful ES only character that shouldn't have got to red maps in the first place.
>>507681478>What do you think the solution will be for GGG in regards to the whole armor+life vs Energy shield mana debacle? One thing they'll definitely nerf is grim feast, it's super easy to get 5k ES and then double it with grim feast
>>507682925I don't have a pick, but yes they look different
>>507682916>playing the easiest most broken version>when it's clear they don't know what they're fucking doing nor what they're going to do>and only 20% of the skills are in the gameThis is gonna be a wild ride for you if you've never seen ggg balancing before. They don't have a handle on shit, this game is going to devolve into an absolute fucking clown fiesta mess in the next 6 months
>>507683097>placeholder>unique art and unique model
>>507683290post your build and clear. i want to see all your layers, onion boy.
>>507681387I disagree, huntress will have a very unique playstyle with parts melee and parts ranged dashing in and out etc. very cool.
>>507683287Did we go back in time specifically to take Doryani? Wasn't that just the consequence of trying to save Alva?
>>507683137Okay yeah that makes sense. Not sure if that's possible with these skills to be fair as most of the damage comes from exploding the ice wall or frozen enemies with fragmentation rounds and i couldn't find a way to multiply the icewall projectiles so it basically shotguns and covers a bigger area. As the added projectile just shoot another arrow in a straight line after the first.
>>507683287the time travel shit kills any chance of the plot not being retarded
>>507683367Endgame for PoE 2 is already a carbon copy of PoE 1. The "PoE 2 is totally different than PoE 1 that's why it's better" folx are going to have a rude awakening once they finally get past T5 maps.
>>507683190ES gets recharge in a game where recovery is rare (especially for non phys builds) and absurdly strong and a choice of damage immunity to an entire element, fuck off.
>>507683290You're coping. You're salty, and you're coping roght now. Melee will always ne shit and poo2 will not save you. I'm sorry that Jonathan betrayed you but this is how it will be. No one is coming for you
>>507683290>only one defensive "layer" But I have 2, health and armor. Too bad you can't scale health lmao
(pure hp build)how much HP should I have before going into t15? 1.5k?
>>507683268No, comparison is the thief of joy.
>>507683287Doryani is meant to be an expert in the beast or something so he knows how to kill it. I don't like the time travel plot, went in a bad direction
>>507683594I have 2k in t2s
>>507683519It's not a carbon copy, it's worse. But it's also blatantly a cobbled together placeholder to placate early access buyers until they make something proper.
>>507683594Can't tell if you're trolling, retarded or trying to be funny. Anyway 3.5k is a good amount of health for a gemling, more for a titan
>>5076835945k
>>507683668...I'm running t10's with 1.1k hp. am I just retarded or something
>>507683519Endgame is thrown in and unfinished, we all know this yet people keep doomposting like retards about it being unbalanced etc.
grasping hands or frantic invasion for first breach points?
>>507683287You can't change the past because it's already written, but you have to go to the past to make the changes to the past that can't be made because those changes were already made so you have to do them or else the changes that can't happen wouldn't have happened.GGG added forced chores to the lore kek. To be fair time travel is always retarded and is never logical no matter how it's done.
>>507683545bro.... playing my warrior feels so fucking bad, even though I want it to work so bad.Why the fuck would Jonathan use this stupid armor formula that makes armor only work on dog bites but anything actually threatening (i.e. chaos damage, elemental damage, actually damaging physical damage) just instakills you?Why did he think this was a good idea?
>>507683184he meant the atlas map
>>507683438>>507683545>>507683563uhoh EStards already crying, better go kill the pinnacles while you can facetank them. patch is next week sisters.
>>507683640The time travel plot follows consistently from the first game.
>>507683760Then why the fuck does it even exist? This is supposed to be a BETA TEST, and it makes it impossible to test the endgame is what we have isn't actually it.
>>507683679That can be said about almost every system. The only really novel improvement is wasd. Everything else has just been a fucking gutting of nuance and elegance from the first game
>>507683787Armor is fine for the parts of the game that are actually polished. Imagine that, the endgame that is very unfinished is unbalanced.
What the fuck is a sump? I thought that was a plumbing term? What does it have to do with a jungle biome?
>>507683594I have 4k at level 55 with my Gemling.You should have around 3k for a Titan.
Having to relog into trade site is a humiliation ritual
>>507683867We're basically stress testing builds, which is what they're more concerned with right now
>>507683756It's probably fine if you're offscreening everything. Playing eq I'd be dead a million times with all the shitty narrow maps where you just have shield charge in and pray.
>>507683795>They tell you melee is bad>Your retort is ES is goodglad you agree? lol retard.
>>507683679>>507683887It's not a carbon copy of the current poe because they forked it like 3 years ago and didn't copy QoL changes from poe 1 after that point
>>507683787get some block?get some es?get some chaos res?use uniques that make you take 90% less elemental damage?use uniques that let you block aoe?DO ANYTHINGi know you are an esfag larping as an armor user
>>507683891Campaign isnt real game, thats just forced tutorial
>>507683946It's a test by Jonathan to determine how many times mazed retards are willing to do a nonsensical, unnecessary task. Just wait til they add a captcha.
>>507683787Because he plays a support batch party play cuck with ranged dps and cullers, and balances the game around that op strategy
>>507683867They obviously threw it in so the no-lifers had something to do? Also it probably helps in finding some broken shit faster.
>>507683640But isn't the reason the cataclysm shit happening against the vaal because he DIDN'T fully understand the beast?
>>507683891no it's not dude. no-build levelling rangers just dodge everything in campaign, armor still has to engage with the mechanics or die.Why is Jonathan's vision only for warrior? why must armor play dark souls while everyone else plays poe?
Is there a resistance cap in sanctum or not? People assume so but there's no cap on the tooltip. It say 85% for example, not 75%(85%).
>>507683887Monk feels fantastic to play, I think it is a great addition. Huntress, at least from what they have shown months ago also looks like she will be a lot of fun to play like monk.
>>507684102No, it happens because Atziri didn't give a fuck about his opinion
>>507684035>3 steps back to get wasd and dodgeroll Poo2 was a mistake
>>507683787>Why the fuck would Jonathan use this stupid armor formula that makes armor only work on dog bites but anything actually threatening (i.e. chaos damage, elemental damage, actually damaging physical damage) just instakills you?This part isn't a problem, it's reasonable design that encourages you to stack as much armour as possible, instead of getting just, say, 4000, and getting flat PDR for the whole game.The problem is the total ubiquity of 100% armor break. Legitimately every map will have at least 1 mob that does it.Having decent armour is also a sizeable investment of equipment slots, global defense/charge stacking, passives on the tree and so on. All of which can be spent on buffer instead.This compounds to armour being a bad fucking choice.100% armor break on players needs to go, or armour users need to get a node that mitigates at least 30-50% of it.
>>507684047It's the part of the game that is what they want it to be, the endgame isn't. Whatever you feel like calling it.
>>507683787Because you're playing a dead class and getting tricked by streamerniggers into playing a dead class. Wasting time in the game for them makes them more money. Wasting time for you is just wasted time. Always play the meta and nothing else unless you're truly bored.
>>507683190There is if you can't path to good life/armor nodes cheaply. Along with the pile of things that interact with ES
>>507683972tick tock.
>>507678739>wahhhhhhh I have to scroll past 2 people listing an astramentis for 1 exalt >nooooooooooooooooooooopoor anon
>>507683970you have no idea how offscreen cheese my build is. I make spark look like a joke
>>507684037you're mindbroke ESbro, get off 4chan for the day. step outside.your last retort to "armor bad" was "ES good", and your new retort to "armor bad" is "es good". i know. ES is good. go touch grass.
>>507683519They are slowly waking up, most of them are just now getting to maps. Or realizing their build is just dogshit
>Sin fucking created the beast>Sin doesn't understand the beast or know how to stop it????
>>507678927>third party websiteHow are people so retarded? >>507680513That guy is doing a shit job.
>>507684219>larping estard doesnt know how armor break in maps workslet me enlighten you:the more armor you have, the less impact armor break has because its based on the end physical damage taken.
>>507684102Doryani can't prevent it because it's inevitable. PoE 1 establishes that the cataclysm happens in every possible universe no matter what he tries. Atziri fucking everything up is the fundamental constant of PoE cosmology.
>>507678739Very bad take. Trade only works when there are 25k+ concurrent players on a server. Anyone who has played PoE 1 before knows this.Everyone with a brain ignores the lowest priced listings.
>>507684543It thought it was retconned that he made the beast
Warrior is still way more fun to play than monk or ranger despite it being weaker.
>>507684171Monk is a class not a system? Also monk only functions because of combat frenzy and resonance being right in his startHe's actually a great example of how poo2 is a bastardization of poo1. They had to completely destroy charges and their game identity, as well as charge sustain in order to enforce the playstyle of a single fucking build
>>507684553Epic bait
>>507679147Yeah, everyone - especially you - is way smarter than them, but magically fails to make a better game. Really weird, but that should in no way stop you from thinking how much more intelligent you are.
>>507684550He's on a vacation
pls stop minions from congesting doorways... pls
>>507679026GGG was 100% correct with this take and not enough people give them credit for it.
>>507684685Monk feels great specifically because of the changes they have made to the combat and movement in the game compared to PoE 1. I'm not using combat frenzy or resonance.
That fucking bird boss in ultimatum spawned a tornado that killed me in like 0,5 seconds, seems like a bugged skill.
There's no way to swap runes is there?
>>507684757doesn't blink and lightning warp teleport every minion to you?
Armor class should let you push through mobs and heavy armor should give you a shoulder check dash instead of roll. Heavy armor lads shouldn't get shoved around by white mobs.
>>507681416I'm Chris Wilson. I keep bullying Jonathan by sending him screenshots from here.
so are they starting a new league once they come back?
i just got lifespring and ghostwrite brb gonna roll a stormweaver
>>507683787I firmly believe Warrior was the first class created.It was the class the original game was balanced around. They created this, had a workable playtest, and had this idea for a more difficult, slower and more methodical game. But... time constraints, constant setbacks, etc. etc. several years later and they ended up porting a lot of shit straight over from the first game.Do you remember a lot of the people talking about their experience with Warrior in the first week? A lot of them had a very positive experience about it. They had thought it was fun, it interesting being some normal knight like guy fighting horrors. It wasn't until people started playing with other classes, videos started being posted of other classes, until people experience more with the game that that tone shifted from it being fun to it being complete trash. It's because people were able to see what actually good classes were, they were able to realize how incredibly gimped they were.And now there is no putting the cat bag in the back. People have seen everything else and don't want to press Sunder with a 3 second animation to kill 3 white mobs.
>>507684757introducing the traffic light support gem!
>>507684689wow he actually doesn't know how it works...are you still in the campaign friend?
Explain what retard thought MF was fine after decade they slowly gutted it from PoE1
>game didn't launch with a map taboh I see, they want everyone to spend their 300 and then add the map tab later so they have to give more money, very clever chinese grinding games
>>507684593until Act 6, where we find out Alva is actually Atziri before she becomes atziricinema
>>507684862it's not. the skill is very telegraphed, just move.
>>507684873Nope
>Trying to build Merc>The more I learn about damage multipliers and conversions, the more I'm convinced Merc was slapped together last secondAnything good about the class/ascendencies are purely accidental.
>>507681478>how is GGG going to fix something that can only be fixed by rebalancing things?!I think they'll rebalance things. I think that was the plan all along, judging by their 12 year history of making new stuff and then rebalancing it.
>>507684882Not sure about the shoulder charge but heavy armor making you immune to be pushed around and maybe you doing the pushing would be cool, that would also kinda justify the slower movespeed it gives you.
>>507684862>no armor buildanother idiot baited by kripp
>>507684880idk anon. Does it?
>>507685041Maybe if you know the telegraph. There's nothing that points to it being a pretty much instant death. And I hadn't seen it before.
>>507683268Pretty sure the top PoE1 mappers are way further removed from what the average player makes than in PoE2. It's just people making themselves miserable.
ever since i started off screening everything i feel much tankier
>>507684958Put more effort into it next time nigger
>>507685307Killing shit before it kills you is the actual best defensive layer
>>507685005Nigga you're going to have to spend $150 on tabs at the game's actual launch anyhow just buy all your quads now.
>>507685251it certainly does in poe1. just use blink on swap. >>507685286it's like a 3 second windup, hard to miss
>>507685012Guess what Alva trying to unfuck everything is going to do. I'm looking forward to being disappointed when the story does something other than I've imagined
>>507685324>so delusional he's trying to ignore facts
>onslaught helmet - +10%MS>fox unique body armor - +12%MS>35%MS boots>tailwindhow can I get even more movespeed, without queen of the forest?
waow finally something mildly useful
>>507685510None except corruptions goyim you still have to equip a blink spell to finish your trial.
>>507685297wait until the mirror shop dramas in poo2
>>507685556>cloak of flames metawell that's one thing i certainly didn't see coming
>>507685630>>507685630>>507685630>>507685630
>>507684994Because the game is made with RMT Chinese gangs in mind
>>507685510Anoint Parrying Motions on your neck. That is, if you can get at least 50% block for it to be reliable.
>>507685721h-how do I get 50% block on a crossbow build?
>>507686336Hm... There are those level 1 Unique Boots that give you a flat 10% Block. This block can be scaled even without a shield. Obviously this is useless though as it has no movement speed on the boots. I wonder if there are other items or passives like that, then you could scale block independently of a shield.Otherwise, just open your passive tree, ctrl f movement, then annoint whichever one gives you the highest movement speed.
Christmas is over, where is the patch?
New friend here, how do I kill GAYnor with my lvl 16 witch. I keep getting him to like 30% health on last phase and then he freezes me with some bullshit and kills me. Never played poe1 so I’m just going in blind but haven’t struggled much with the rest of the game to this point and my build has felt solid till now.
>>507690283Literally you just have to learn to dodge, everything he does is something you can avoid. Just don't get hit by the beams. Focus on survival not dps.
>>507674947>can't use sunder on a 2handed axe or 2 handed flail.Says who?
>>507679891Crossbow, not merc
