Do catalysts on rings work multiplicatively or additively when it comes to resistances? This shit is very confusing.

>Hi Devs (you are moderators on this sub so I know you will see this post),>As a gamer dad of 18 children that runs 44 small businesses and is employed full time at 403 other businesses, I just wanted to say that this game does not respect my time and it is punishing me for having a life. I only have 1 attosecond of free time a year to play your game and I'm being GATEKEPT from enjoying it. PLEASE FIX YOUR GAME NOW AND MAKE EVERYTHING EASIER AND SHITTY SO I CAN ENJOY TOO :)EDIT: 8000 upvotes :O wow wow wow I knew a lot of people could relate to this but I had no idea it would be this popular! To the trolls: I hope you enjoy the downvotes and the banhammer that got dropped on your sorry ass XD>EDIT 2: WOW, THANKS FOR THE GOLD KIND STRANGER!Why are Softcore players like this?

>>507823445To be fair losing EXP on death is an asinine mechanic and it has nothing to do with hardcore or casual. (there's no such thing as a softcore player you fucking moron)
>>507823404How many times has someone actually debated you? You've been begging for a debate for years now so I'm curious how often people take you up on the offer.
>>507822964Anyone?

>>507825935>>507825941Not even like in poe1 where maxing quality might give you an edge?
I dont think pinnacle bosses should be a 1 portal affair. it just encourages you to look the fight up before hand which is cringe

>>507826240You use 1 resist mod armor pieces, put sockets on them, and put 12% resist troons in them. That's literally all you can do. Another reason the early game in PoE 2 is shite.

This game is unironically so good I seriously have my doubts about anyone pretending this isn't the best arpg ever even if it has flaws.
The game is just quick moneygrab
>Level 60 now and still wearing stuff from level 35>No currency left to upgrade it>Nothing dropped that could replace that junk>Not even alchemy or chance orbs to quickly upgrade and change gearmfw
>>507826595>where is the poe2 that was promised? current poe2 is just poe1 liteStop being so entitled, chud. They only had 5 years to work on poe 2, so obviously the endgame is just shoddily copypasted from poe 1, half fo the characters and skills are missing, half of the acts are not done, and everything is unbalanced... but don't worry, all of this will be finished in 6 months!!!
>>50782659599.9% of PoE 2 players are still in campaign and don't realize that endgameslop in PoE 2 is the same as PoE 1.>inb4 poojeet says "it's just a beta" and that PoE 2's endgame will be slowed down at release

>>507826759The devs said publicly endgame will be fast like PoE1. Johnathan said this months ago. This is a good thing. I like that I can complete maps in 2 minutes and target farm. The problem is there's a big traffic jam and people can't get the fuck out of regular maps. They need to nerf MF and tone down early map events so you don't get this >>507825585I'm looking at how people are playing and watching the economy and I'm just like jeez man. It's just taking too long for people to get to the fun part of endgame and people who don't know poe1 are complaining about what they *think* poe1 is like, not what it actually is, which is poe2's real endgame where they will have tons of fun when they get to it.
Just died to the on-death lightning explosions effects in a 9/10 fucking ultimatum trial floor when I'm 13 levels above.4.5k ES and 4.5k mana gone in a second.I have no willpower to continue playing this tranny dogshit lads. I just fucking can't do this anymore.I'll just afk at my base selling shit I want to sell and after that drop it for at least a few weeks.

is there a chance it will go to 60 spirit if I corrupt this? I never corrupted an item so I have no idea how it works
>>507827479trannies wish voice changers existed that could fool anyone
>>507826595They realized once they started working on endgame this year (lol) that their gameplay design fundamentally made no sense when they started putting area/monster modifiers onto the bosses. They panicked, made bosses less common, and buffed player damage through the roof, so that "skip broken mechanics with damage" became a viable strategy, just like poo1. The "kill all the rares" thing they ripped off from D4 (lol) is just a bandaid so that interacting with the terribly designed bosses isn't as frequent.They literally just never even thought about "what happens if we give this guy haste" while working on the campaign.
>>507827293poe cant stop winning

>>507827604the best part is that they literally just had the exact same issue with t17 maps kek
I will buy the $480 supporter pack and giveaway multiple early access keys if Johnathan and his retarded team of Kiwi fuckheads announce that Duelist is going to be the first new class added to the roster.

>>507828131Duelistdownie is unironically mentally ill
How do you think they will save the armor chads from the tyranny of the ES tards and cloak of flame abusers? Even more funny how the FUCK did they bring over cloak of flame chest piece and it proceeds to cause the same EXACT fucking issue that happened in PoE1? How the fuck did that happen? They need to realize that converting damage types of hits on the player is always going to be some line of broken. Why is it that putting on cloak of flame is effectively giving you 40k armor basically?
>>507828572you didnt list a single issue with the game, why?
>>507828670Poe1
>>507828472Yeah but we finally have crossbows. We've wanted crossbows for close to 15 years

>>507828693Armor looked fine in the video an anon posted recently of him doing pinnacle content. He was getting screen wide clear from his block skill that scaled off of armor, and he was tapping the pinnacle boss itself for like 3 million damage a tap.

>>507828693why did they carry over mf impacting currency that they removed from poe1?why did they remove life nodes from the tree but left es nodes?why did they add hidden ms reduction to armor?
>>507824319The catagory you're looking for is 'single player games'. F2P games are designed to funnel you into their store by constantly annoying you. PoE2 isn't comfy and it isn't for casuals.
>>507828752Because you didnt askMF, ascendancy systems, boring endgame, armour being shit, life being shit, worthless uniques, uninspired skill tree with useless nodes, uninteresting ascendancy classes, one portal maps, on death effects, shit crafting systems, runes not being resocketable, clicking well, clicking 3 separate benches to vendor items, bad visual clarityIs that enough?
Ok I just got to maps. Is there some noob strategy for getting your footing? I'm struggling through T1s a bit but clearing them despite that, should I be picking up everything and selling it or something? So far I've hardly gotten any loot at all though, I'm seeing what everyone was complaining about...
>>507829018man i kinda feel like playing d2 for a bit but the flask/charm system is so shit that i dont want to do it anymore
>>507828693You do realize that if ES and CoF get deleted from the game tomorrow armor cucks aren't going to stop dying every time a white mob farts two screens away from them, right?
>>507828997some nerdlinger on reddit did the math and it appears as if poop2 is using the armour formula from pre 3.16 poe 1. so it will probably be updated in near future.
>>507829260rmt like 20 divs and buy decent gear
>>507829238the well is the only valid complaint out of what you listed
>>507829131because half of the endgame got copy-pasted from 2018 poe1 as a placeholder as they clearly ran out of time
>>507829341>they haven't updated their formulas since they began development of poe 2Damn I'm somehow not surprised. On the bright side, that's an easy fix so it can only get better from here.

>>507830041because poe2 is quite literally a poe1 fork.
>>507829940Nvidia gpu? Update their launcher and open the game directly from there. They've optimized their drivers for this game but it doesn't seem to apply if you open through steam or ggg's client directly for whatever reason
Hey Im a little ways into act 2, completely new player and I went in blind and am trying to figure shit out for myself but I have a few questions. (Sorceress, lightning ascendant sorta build)Trying to farm bosses doesn't seem to give very much, even at a fairly close level. Ill get some blue gear, some transmutation orbs which I barely use because I got REALLY lucky (I think) with this staff back in act 1 and nothing so far can replace it. I feel like Im not getting a steady supply of new gear, Im not having trouble with the content, maybe 3-4 tries per boss but Im worried that Im going to hit a brick wall soon and have to replace everything.
im 67/75/75/30ish in resistancewould the best course of action here to find a couple pieces that have two resistances on them? i think my gloves and chest need it.but trading...trading it...it hurts...
suckma trials >>>>>>>>>>>> labEveryone pretending they didn't think lab was aids
>>507830027just scam somebody to get a free ascension. it's shrimple as
Do you miss me now Exiles?
why is breach and ritual so fucking rippy its near impossible unless you have a build that one shots the entire screen even on tier 1 maps when you just start off on the atlas expedition is no where near as bad as this shit
>>507830235lab had its faults but it was soulful as fuck
when is the next POE 1 League? I'm tired of this shit game
>>507830027the more players want something, the more pain china devs add to the processit's economics
>>507830041>Why would it be using the old formula?Poe 2 started as a bigger than average expansion for poe 1, until it was scrapped a few years later and built in a new engine. Them forgetting to import updated formulas makes sense, since they had like six guys continuing development and updates for poe 1 during poe 2's development. It doesn't seen like they communicated with the other group too effectively.
>>507830150don't bother farming at all, it's not even slightly worth your time. just finish the game asap and do maps. also when you need new gear just trade for it instead of trying to make it yourself, it's infinitely cheaper.
>>507830041they didn't update the formula until 2021. poe 2 was originally going to be an expansion, like anon said, an outdated fork. just one of those things that slipped under the radar.
>>507830323the ruthless world of wreaclast is supposed to be rippy
>>507830323they didn't test them at all, just quickly shat some stuff in the endgame so you have "content"almost everything in the endgame is a last minute addition for EA launch
after playing a lot of poe2 endgame i think they can make it more fun with loot adjustments and more content but i dont think that they will make it a game that they (as devs) will be happy with for many yearsit's always going to be living in poe1's shadow because they're stretching their campaign content too thin by trying to scale it to endgameuntil they have enough shit developed to replace all the campaign content it's going to be the worse game
>>507830409>Them forgetting to import updated formulas makes sense, since they had like six guys continuing development and updates for poe 1 during poe 2's developmentwhat about this makes sense? 1 guy, 6 guys, 600 guys, it's a blatant fuck up, it's not the type of fuck up that just "makes sense"forgetting a single character in one random block of code, yeah that makes senseforgetting to import past formulas? not a thing
is there any way to apply % or flat "life on kill" effects to ES?
>>507830150The game is deigned entirely with trading in mind, Self found drops are few and far between, the game is notorious for having extremely shit droprates.While doing the campaign check the NPC vendors every single time you level up, it's a much more reliable way of getting gear than enemy drops.
>>507830458What the fuck is maps
>>507830323Breach wasn't intended to spawn as many monsters as it currently does and is on the confirmed list of nerfs to arrive soon.
>build is working but is a punish to play, 3 buttons lots of rolling>fuck this let's switch to the streamer build>game instantly becomes FUN screen clear poe 1 type stuffI'm home, feels amazing bros
I think a lot of the discrepancy in the game comes from certain builds being able to just naturally do way more. Its why things like cast on freeze initially get nerfed. Spark electrocute shenanigans is also probably going to get cut up eventually. People won't like this but the baseline of the game is warrior gameplay. Warrior non-abusive gameplay. There is a lot of shit that is on the nerf chopping block for sure. I expect infernalist to get turned inside out. Probably sorc is going to catch a few hits also.
chat is this unique good?
>>507830689Sure, Grab MoM and mana on kill gear.
>>507830690>While doing the campaign check the NPC vendors every single time you level upof all the stupid and unnecessary mechanics from poe1 that they had a chance to delete and rework, this is one that somehow gets left in, and a bunch of good/working shit got revamped for no reasonwhy does it make sense that the vendor offers you a bunch of stuff, you TP out and kill 1 mob to level up, go back to town, and now the vendor has new shit? i ask in this way because they clearly decided "yes, this is part of the vision". and i really don't get it. it's not flavorful or interesting. why does it exist?
i died too much in t1 maps and now i have no waystones
>>507830703they are how you farm when you finish the game, don't worry about it for now, just play the game and don't waste time farming bosses or anything.
>>507830050I dunno bro my gpu is pretty new but this map and the grotto one have some weird fucking lighting issues
>>507829260you trade your exalts for better gear and if you aren't clearing packs in one shot you are doing something wrong. i mean you are probably bad and get good works on my spark buildyou pick up socket/quality gear to salvageyou pick up yellows and disenchantyou sell your blue gear
>>507827741Your mother is a whore, illiterate-kun.
>>507829131>why did they add hidden ms reduction to armor?Because, it is literally copy pasted from poe 1. Pic very much fucking related.
>>507830150>I feel like Im not getting a steady supply of new gearThis is normal.
>>507830641>what about this makes sense?They're two different groups. Poe 2 group asks poe 1 group for their formulas. They receive them. A year later poe 1 group changes the armor formula in the game. They either forward it to poe 2 group and are ignored, or poe 2 group lists the updating of the formula on a to-do list with low priority.It's not unusual at all for low priority taskings to fall off entirely between groups at work. It's a quick fix, too, so now that a spotlight has been shone on it they can just update the numbers.
>ran out of maps againtime to tradecuck for more I guess
>>507830690My issue with trade is that trading sucks and it also saps the life out of the game in my opinion. Getting a lucky drop and selling it for 100 div or whatever and then you just sort of print characters. It isn't fun. Which is why I play SSF. I do however wish they would tweak SSF for certain things. I have like 10 lesser jeweler orbs and actually got lucky and got a perfect orb. But I don't have a greater orb so I can't use the perfect. You can't forge up a greater orb either. Its fucked.
>>507830323rituals on shit like mires is terrible
>>507830997>the bugged lighting actually looks goodkino...
>>507830632i still think that they fucked up by not embracing sanctum enemy design as a baseline for the game. the entire end game should be more in the spirit of sanctum but without afflicions and shit instead of trying to adapt poe1 maps. poe2 strength is in boss encounters, not slaying trash.
>>507830774this. everyone relying on damage and screenwide aoe, ignoring their defenses, ignoring stun/ailment protection, getting used to grim feast gameplay etc. are going to have to relearn the game from the ground up
>>507830924vendors sell things. sometimes they sell things you want. how is this a problem?
>>507827364>>507830027Sanctum with capped honor res is easy even with a shit build, and I say that as someone who hates sanctum and loves shit builds.
>>507830814Everlasting glaze is bugged, right? It was not intended to give you ES with EB-MoM. They are going to correct it and nerf those builds entirely.
>>507831192ritual is bad in every map, even on maps where it's more "open", they spawn in some shit corner or on top of a pile of rocks you can't move over
>>507830997That map is just unbelievably fucked for some reason
>>507830323grim feast really helps, breach spawns so much trash that you are constantly regenerating ES ...you are using ES, right?
>>507830997>lights out modifier>light radius is severely reduced>map is dark>character will have a conical flashlight that aims towards your cursorkino
>>507831315This is how conversion works in poe, newfriend. Your gaping filled with aids tranny anus is going to get nerfed :^)
>>507831101>trading sucksHow are you fucking up trade? They automate everything for you. >select desired affixes on the armor/weapon type>set a maximum price for search results matching what you're comfortable spending>search >go down the list of results pressing their automated message for buying the item>alt tab back and accept the party invite
if divines are so common now why does the price keep going up
>>507831078It seems insanely critical though. Like imagine if ES was missing a zero somewhere in its formula and it was fucked. I bet they would have jumped on it immediately. the warrior got totally fucked honestly.
>>507831438>alt tab back and accept the party invitelol lmao
>>507831446Only 0.1% of players (actual subhumans) can have broken farm setups.
they should add this
>>507831416>Interesting, fun, creative modifiersThat's not part of the V I S I O N, exile. You actually want more random shit on the ground you can't avoid stepping in.
>>507831376grim feast abusers are going to die every map when the patch hits. ES will not have recovery outside of recharge.

>>507831319Why are rituals all chaos shit too? I play SSF and chaos shit pisses me off because it seems so pervasive. What was the intention behind chaos damage originally in PoE1 anyway?
>>507831609What game is this it sounds kino.
>>507831517If a zero was missing it wouldn't work. That would be fixed asap because it doesn't work.Armor works. It working on an outdated formula isn't something that's immediately obvious so it wouldn't require a high prio fix

>>507831654i used to rely on cannibalism for recovery on 2k life pool until i read what grim feast does. its rough.poe2 doesnt have anything like wicked ward, right? as far as i know poe1 ES builds rely on either oneshotting the screen from a mile away, use ES leech or wicked ward. i cant really imagine running ES on a character incapable of the first option of the other 2 dont exist.
What the fuck, this unique is such trash..
>>507832295just logout if ur low :^)
>>507832357You are trash dot dot dot
>>507831871Dying should delete a random item from your guild stash.
>>507831101what i hate about you retards is that you don't want to play ssf.you want a buffed version of the game that dumps everything you want on the floor the second you boot up the game. >you can't forge up a..no you use your lessers and some vaal orbs early on. when you get a few greater you vaal them and HOPE for a 6 link. eventually you find a perfect. you don't expect it, you are playing SOLO SELF FOUND, if you don't find it, you don't have it. you don't like that, learn how to play trade.
>>507831901There's also growths that do the same, desu I remember the PoE1 Ritual being more cancer mechanics wise, the only garbage thing about PoE2 Ritual is that it's area is way too small and the rewards are 9 times out of 10 not worth it
>>507832357The only thing trash about it is the level requirement. Not sure why they're so insistent on making act 1 so slow
>>507831901rat storm is also isn't it? Also, isn't there a chaos plant orb(on the ground) one and one that just looks like volatiles that follow you? I thought there was one more too like some sort of chaos miasma shit.
>>507832510> casual players want a fun single player gamemore news at 11
I think 1 portal is still too easy. Every death should empty your stash entirely and reduce both your level and gold to 0.
>>507832510nupoe players literally dont understand why ssf exist. ssfcuck bitching about drops is about as retarded as hardcuck bitching about losing a character.
>>507832656>let's take a levelling unique from poe1>let's also make it only usable by level 80 players>let's add retarded downsides on top as wellwhat the fuck were they thinking
Poe2 is the jar jar binks of ARPGs
>WitchHunter>Incendiary Shot/Rapid Fire>Solo Self FoundJust did my first few maps and I'm dropping the game until new gems come out. So many skills feel horrible to use and if you are not playing the statistically best build for your ascendancy, you are wasting your time.Even with shit gear, Rapid Fire did really well but I think my entire play through was carried by having culling strike. I just want Druid/Templar/Shadow to come out so I can be a proper male spellcuck. I also really miss Crimson Dance and not relying on Dodge Rolls.
>>507832613i hadnt seen those in like 100 rituals i forgot they exist
>>507832704There's a Blood Wave that's phys, I think, but it pushes you around as well. Idk what Rat Nado is, I thought it was poison
>>507832704rat is phys that breaks armor based on the phys damage it deals (like every armor break)miasma doesnt do damage it just slows you
i will be genuinely shocked if skill system wont see a major rework before release. this is unironically the absolute worst skill system i have ever seen in any game ever.
>>507832712then they can go play diablo 4, diablo 3, last epoch, grim dawn, etc, etc. why would a casual player pick the game mode of the grindy game that makes the game even more of a grind?
>>507832742In multiplayer, D2 did take gold from your stash on death (I don't recall if you got it all back when picking up the corpse, but go try doing it naked in Hell); if you died too much, you'd run out of money for potions.But overall I think D2 handled deaths better, having to pick up your body but not having the mobs reset felt less annoying than PoE2.
backport wasd to poe1
>>507833135there are so many systems that need major reworks that I genuinely do not think any of it will happen
Rapesquads needs to not spawn together.
>>507833187>then they can go play diablo 4, diablo 3, last epoch, grim dawn, etc, etc.Then the game would die and be discontinued. Retard.
>>507832357this is fine for an early game EDC
>>507833261Sorry, me and my bros only rape in packs.
>>507833261Skill issue, should've killed them faster.
Is the Scepter that gives you and your allies Critical Weakness any good?
>>507833261EStards are so fucked when the nerf hits LMAO
>>507833260gems is by far the biggest offender i think. i have no fucking idea how they managed to fuck up the perfect system from poe1 to this abomination. i actually thought that the only real change was going to be how we socket gems lol
they better not fucking nerf rampart raptor when they come back from vacation, it's literally the only thing that makes crossbow skills feel decent
Died to DD again
>>507833718to compensate for it's power, rampart raptor will have an addition 50% penalty to crossbow reload speed.
>>507833261What is this build even supposed to be
bad game
>>507833718They won't touch rampart raptor but they're definitely going to gut howa somehow which will end its usefulness
>>507833581Because that's how things worked during all the demos and Exilecons. The fact the old system was completely scrapped and replaced with a new one shows there's zero chance they ever fix (rollback) it.
>>507833962Worst waifu hideout. There are way better even on the showcase site.
Why are all the STR based spirit gems so ass? Magma barrier seems complete garbage. Overwhelming presence might be okay? not sure. Herald of Ash is whatever. Is scavenged armor any good? I tried it a bit and its usefulness seems ass because armor is ass. Maybe once they fix armor it will be good? It sucks that it has no practical use on bosses etc though. Realistically, they should make it so that you get 1 stack for breaking whites armor and 2 for breaking blues armor and 5 for breaking a rares armor and 10 for breaking a uniques armor.
>>507833287And the downside?
Reminder that the game originally had a crafting bench where you could destroy an item to turn its mods into tiered essences but it cut right before the release.A mechanic like that would make SSF 100x more tolerable because now you actually have a use for items with a few good mods. In trade you can sell those items, in SSF they are useless if they aren't stronger than your current item or if they are for a character that you don't want to play. GGG know that SSF in its current state is rather aids and are trying to fix it, they just overshot it with that approach. Something similar will be back soon tm and the game will be much nicer to play in SSF. Your complaints are justified.
>>507832510This nailed it lol, the only time I ever touch hcssf is on gauntlet because that's the only fun ssf game mode in poe. poe is its trading system. the game is balanced around trade. People need to stop whining and learn.
Hi guys, I'm new to the genre and this game. I thought this was an MMO. How come I don't see anyone in the map and only in towns? The game feels kind of empty.
>>507833287damn thats a good point.we are pretty lucky that every other arpg is complete trash.
>>507833581agreed. support gems are the most boring shit now. and not nearly enough for only getting to slot them once.
>>507834234>gauntlet... (is) the only fun ssf game mode in poeGauntlet is the opposite of fun, though. It was fun during its first year, but ever since the new monster bases have spoiled everything.
poe2? Really quite bad.
>>507834108Is this in PoE1? That would be cool if it was.
>>507834259Suicide LAtranny.
>>507834261normies dont give a fuck if the game is badpoch has a higher all time peak than poe1 d4 made more money than poe1 ever did before it even launched
>>507834465??
>>507834108ssf is aids by design, if you dont like it then you are not the target.
>>507833187Because a casual player (like myself) saw an advertisement that looked good and picked up the game for $30 to play over holidays. I'd say the game actually plays very well casually, except the several unfun parts. I'd even say that SSF gear (what you were arguing over with another anon) is fine. In comparison, D2 was much much worse when it came to damage mods on weapons; SSF Barb was a pain.
>>507834234Not saying it should be balanced around SSF. What I am saying is that there is no inbetween. Trade rips all the fun out of the game and boils everything down to "div per hour" bull shit. SSF will leave you languishing if you dare play a underpowered build that is only underpowered because the GGG overlords said so. Rolling Slam, one of my favorite skills is bugged and probably don't be unbugged for a long time. So I constantly have to deal with the shit I like being bugged or broken ontop of weird SSF only problems. But I still think the flipside is worse. Playing trade just ruins the flow of the game in my opinion. Seeing things in div per hour is miserable. Not to mention the luck factor being so insane. If you do get lucky and hit that 100 div sale, you now have effectively beaten the game because you can just buy everything.
>>507834465I thought this was Rainbow Siege for a second then noticed that it's Stalker
>>507834090scavenged armor is broken for mapping, and you can just swap out gems when you fight a boss (i swap scavenge and ash for attrition)magma barrier is pretty fucking good if you build around itoverwhelming presence multiplies not just heavy stun but normal stun on mobs by 1.4x and also multiplies ele ailments its pretty fucking good for improving ignite chances.
>>507833187poe2 is a casual game made for consolefags
Is there any rules to spawning Olroth? I've done more than 10 logbooks and no luck. Does it have to be ilvl 80 for example?
>>507834541wrong general ok
When does POE1 get good? I just got the 4th act and I'm still using the same 2 skills I got in the first 5 minutes.
>>507834643orbs dont help in ssf? you dont craft?
wew
>>507834467we dont want normies in poe. when in rome do as romans do.
>>507831039>sell your blue gearwell I wasnt doing that. alright. and im killing almost everything in one or two hits anyway, im playing warrior and slamming shit into the ground, hammer of the gods is busted but im more concerned about hitting a survivability wall than a damage wall.
>>507834424>ssf weenie whines about his game mode being actually difficult
>>507834762why are you playing anything other than poe2
>>507834714Wait does overwhelming prescence increase the amount of time a mob is stunned for? or is it increasing how much damage you do to their stun bar? I am just trying to figure out of its worth me using it because I am a phys based titan build but don't use ailments.
>>507834448They tried to put something similar into the game with the recombinator where you smush together two items and get an item that randomly picks mods from the two. The idea being that you find two items with a few good and bad mods each, you combine them and if youre lucky you get an item with all the good mods and none of the bad mods. In practice it was never used for that because it turns out that you can just alt spam blue items until they only have a single good mod and then you combine those, eventually giving you an item with 3-4 good mods and nothing else. On top of exploiting some specific detail of the mechanic which let you craft items with 5-6 good mods very consistently.
>>507834845SSF players are schizophrenic pls understand
>>507834467>normies dont give a fuck if the game is badthen why don't they play them? poop of poopile is awful bad dumpster trash, yet people can't seem to stay away.... really activates the old almonds.last epoch did well because diablo 4 was shit, then it died because it was shit as well.
>>507833962Hexblast, spread dots and curses, fart corpses, freeze synergy with chaos gem.
>>507834923because poe2 is actual dogwater
>>507834820eventually you wont bother pickin up blue gear due to space. then you eventually wont pick up yellow gear.then it will only be picking up currency and uniquesits a slow start, even with mapping. but it picks up around t5 maps
pcock sisters what do you level with until cock? I'm investing into cockcoin since I have about a week until the devs come back
Any good way to run Frost Chrono? Or do I really need two-energy combo?
Why does supercharged slam seem completely garbage but hammer of the gods is goated? I have a full quality supercharged slam for the extra stages and using this shit over hammer of the gods seems retarded. I don't want to take the hammer of gods pill but I just might. Not sure. Supercharged slam is by far my favorite but its trash at applying ailments because its damage is spread over a bunch of aftershocks.
>>507834643The appeal of ssf is using absolute mastery over poe's economic systems to will your way into endgame. It's like playing mega man without any power ups, it's an optional challenge that's not necessarily more fun, but a test of your abilities to break up the pace. And you should be looking at ssf as divs per hour, how you're building towards endgame is amassing huge amounts of resources, much more than trade. You didn't beat ubers in ssf if you didn't do this.
>>507834730it's casual. 1 death per map, can't change your ascendancy, limited crafting, mediocre ground loot. real casual experience. i would hate to see what it would be like if it wasn't casual lol. chris wilson comes to your house and kills you if you die in a map.
>>507835126is this for self cast comet? cold seems like the last element to go chrono.
>>507834923poe2 sucks
>>507835085>tradies hide items and only pick up currency so they can buy items from other players>everyone does this so there are no good items on the marketLMAOall the "top" trade tards are in a permanent state of bitching that they have nothing to spend their currency on because the items just dont exist
>>507835323Yeah, I currently self-cast..
>>507835394Then leave nigga, you're gunna be mad as fuck when 3.26 rolls out and everyone leaves you in the dust anyways as per usual
>>507834926no to the stun duration.but did you know normal stun still exists not just heavy stun? you can stunlock rares with autoattack if you have enough stun power.so yes it just multiplies your total stun amount by 1.4x.>i dont use ailmentsyou dont slam with infernal cry? thats an ignite
>>507835243I would like that to be a thing, if only so I could kill him first.
>>507835484the only worthwhile gear to anyone is shit thats already rolled into it on a drop because the crafting is non existent
GGG needs to take the last epoch take on SSF. That was actually very fun. SSF realistically shouldn't be seen as a challenge league but instead as just a alternative way to play. No one wants to be washed in drops because that would ruin the fun too. Last Epoch found that good balance. I believe that trade leaguers are mentally unwell in the worst of ways but who am I to judge?
>>507835561im a moth nigga i love dust
Hello I'm Chris Wilson from Grinding Gear Games.Should we ban the chinks?
Is the Guard ability something you can build for?
>>507835484End game is in poe is crafting your own items, I know you haven't seen it
I understand it perfectly now. Melee in this game is ass because most dangerous mechanics are melee-only. Elemental explosions, elemental paths, time bubbles, flask siphons, mana siphons, on-death effects, 70% of attacks. Hell, even enemy projectiles are much much easier to deal with for ranged classes because they're high-damage low-speed.The answer is easy. Just make being far away from mobs dangerous. Make projectiles unavoidable and lower the damage to compensate, make all the fuck-you-circles from rare modifiers appear on top of the player instead of on top of the mob. And add an actual reason to pick melee. Just make it do significantly more damage than spells or ranged so melee players can spend more skill points to work with, to spend on more defense or accepting the risks and taking the extra damage.i pulled all of this out of my ass and im pretty sure I'm already way smarter than the whole GGG team put together.
>>507835701You can't ban your boss, chris
>>507835236The suffering of ssf right now and why I chose not to play it (NTA) is because of an issue of the endgame that equally affects trade: There ain't shit to do in maps. The reason MF is the meta is the same reason it is meta in Diablo 2, you have nothing to hope for other than increasing rare drops that drop from anything. In trade, this isn't felt as bad cause you're trying to profit, in ssf your gear progression is tied to the [use x currency] and slam and pray, which feels miserable to progress in.
>>507835662I understand that about infernal cry which I do use but I don't use it specifically to ignite. The ignite is just a small bonus I guess. i don't invest in ignite.
>>507835673>poe isn't inclusive enough and needs training wheels for me, stop excluding me you bigots!!!!
>>507835761they literally realized this themselves, a lot of the earlier bosses have attacks that only hit at range, the best example is the sanctum floor 3 boss that has this spinnu attack that doesnt hit you if youre close. unfortunately they just forgot when they made the rest of the game so yeah they are pretty retarded. whats hilarious is to me is that they removed the single archnem mod that actually spawns on you at range when you hit the monster, (volatile crystals when hit). actual retardation
>>507835673>SSF realistically shouldn't be seen as a challengeyou are free to leave. theres a reason why last epoch is a shit game nobody gives a shit about.
I think POE 2 should have an actual crafting system that's not just slamming orbs and hoping for the best.
>>507836156but exalt slamming is super exciting
>>507835761The issue with melee is that if you are doing non-abusive melee(not weird totem shit or hammer of the gods ailment abuse), your damage is very low because you have to move constantly. I noticed that on ranged classes, a lot of their abilities they can do while moving and have quick startup and release times. Mace skills have baked in attack times that can't be changed effectively etc. I think the realest problem is that there aren't other melee weapon types in the game yet that are STR or STR DEX or STR INT etc. Maybe the swords have really fast moves that you would swap to when you are in a situation where your mace is too slow? Who knows. All these warrior problems could be a symptom of lack of weapons.
>>507835761The real problem with melee is that being viable as a melee takes orders of magnitude more defense investment than a ranged build, and melee skills should be stronger damage-wise to balance for this, but instead it's actually the other way around and melee just get doublefucked.
ssf players will always be the black sheep step child because its easier to help people not doing it just to say "just trade doob"they all know the true realities in its current form where all you can do is pray for the person and realize how fuckin insane that is that the only way to help ssf is to just say "Roll better".it makes the smug tradies feel powerless and realize they cheated themselves through the game because of how easy they have it
>>507836228But steps leading up to exalt slamming is grinding your balls against a fine whetstone
>>507836156>hewants POOP2 to not be a gacha RNGfest for monkeys and have actual depth, fun etc.Lol. 5 years from now maybe
>>507835814so again, you people don't want to play ssf, you want to play super looter. you login and the game gives you everything you need/want.ssf is trade without trade. thats what it is, it's what it will always be. learn to use the tools at your disposal or play a game with targeted loot drops like d4 or last epoch.
>>507836065>whats hilarious is to me is that they removed the single archnem mod that actually spawns on you at range when you hit the monster, (volatile crystals when hit). actual retardationDude whats crazy to me about that is I never EVER had issues with that mod as melee. I never knew it was such a problem for other people. What exactly does the mod do that it was fucking other people up so badly? I have never ever died to that mod. I would rather that mod exist and them remove fucking volatile plants. Volatile plants ruins me because I can't still for long to deal my fucking damage.
>>507835814>There ain't shit to do in mapsThere is. In endgame. See >>507827305They need to offload MF to maps or something like PoE1 so retards can get to the target farming part where you juice maps with tablets, actually utilize those rarity bonuses on waystones, and start unlocking auxiliary shit in your atlas passives, and fighting pinnacle bosses. It's too hard for normies now. They are assuming the worst because they are gridlocked.
If the overall pace of endgame is supposed to remain as is, then I hope acts 4-6 will serve as a better transition into it than the current Cruel. As it is, Cruel is just the same acts again with a stat buff on enemies, so you either start blasting through them and have an easy transition into maps or you're still going slow and methodical and will have a horrible time in maps.
>>507835761>Just make being far away from mobs dangerous.lots of bosses have those mechanics already, even in poe 1.
What did Jamanra do wrong?
>>507836352you're fucking retarded and contrary just to be contrary. My complaint isn't about SSF it's about the tools in the game and the fact the game is very much Early Access raw
>>507836352>so again, you people don't want to play ssf, you want to play super looter. you login and the game gives you everything you need/want.Why are you so fucking autistic, since when is wanting a fucking ARPG to drop useful loot something strange?
>>507836458as melee you have to move around constantly anyway so it doesnt really affect you. as a ranged "player" you stand still casting spark because nothing can hurt you and then the crystals explode and you die. fuckers
>>507836625PoE gives you more useful loot than any other game. You just have to... use it.
>>507836490>literally tranimeDidn't read + opinion discarded
>>507836561i played 4 characters to t15+ this league with self found/crafted items.
>>507836285You have to be careful with stuff like this because of the nature of PoE. Its why they can't / don't like to do things like "YOU TAKE LESS DAMAGE IF CLOSER TO THE MOB!" because then range people would just stand close as well and benefit. But if you say "Well, we will just make the warrior take less damage when close!" Then you have people still abusing it by being a warrior but using spells or ranged weapons. The very nature of PoE being pretty loose character wise really fucks them over sometimes. Its why I don't think they will be able to solve the melee / ranged problem ever.
>>507836554Gave up his harem of hot Faridun women for some random whore
Why didn't they just make poe2 good? For some reason, they chose to make it bad. Puzzling.
>>507836490>links own post that doesn't actually describe what there is to do in the endgame
>>507835856i mean i dont either but its still 25% of my damage
Warrior players what is your build rn. I am debating starting a warrior.
What tabs should we get for poo2?I'm pretty sure gem tabs is needed now based on how uncut gems work.

alright lads i managed to get this during the campaign and its done me well so far but since im in maps now i wanna replace it. what kinda stats should i fixate on? just maximum phys? it seems like attack speed doesnt help much in this game so idk what else to even look for. leech? random rainbow elemental damage?
>>507836817He deserved getting his throat slashed then.
>>507836776can you post your hours? are you just doing premade builds?
>>507836978quad premium and currency gem is useful and optionalunique tab is optionalwait and save for map tab
Is resolute technique important to have as warrior? I never liked fucking around with accuracy. I hear accuracy is weird in PoE2 also where you can hit enemies close to you easily but as your attack AoE scales up, it can miss a lot more?
>>507835701You are the chinks.
>>507836776Dude i play ssf I completely understand the concept of it and how it goes LMAO get off your ssf high horse and stop being contrary just defend GGG with your last dying breathe
>>507836879I just said in the very post you quoted what there is to do in endgame.
>>507837210>wait and save for map tabAre we not reusing the map tab from poo1?

>>507837138depends on ur build but generally %phys, hybrid accuracy/%phys, flat phys, attack speed, +levels to melee gems, and strength because giant's blood is fucking shit

These HC schizos are getting uppity again, post the pausecore webm.
>>507836790I think slam/melee skills just need better damage to compensate for requiring so much defensive investment to be viable. There has to be some upside to them. I think you're making this seem more complicated than it actually is, all that needs to happen is the damage scaling on certain skills needs to be adjusted.

>>507837548uh i wouldnt worry about our damage when all other builds are about to be doing half as much as a meleechad when the patch hits. Our damage is right where jonathan wants it.
>>507837642Yeah except instead of a good game we are left with a bad game.
New poe2 player, in act 3, level 40 mercenaryIs trading mandatory? i've just been disenchanting every item i can't use
>>507836790good points, I was thinking about stuff like that and came to the conclusion any fixes had to have laser-focus to avoid abuse. Ultimately the problem is that being in melee range sucks, so the fix is probably to make being in melee range not suck via adjusting enemy attacks.They still probably have to buff close-combat melee skills until they're stronger than ranged/spell damage, just to give the player an extra 10-15 skill points to work with. a little reward for voluntarily sitting next to mobs, instead of picking a ranger or throwing totems.
>>507837031>are they classes that rely on gear?gee i can't imagine why you are having trouble with ssf. i started with minions because they looked like they would be cheap and easy enough to scale with shit gear. while i was progressing the character i set my filter to prioritize eva bases and crossbows in addition to my summoner gear, i wanted to try some crossbow skills. i crafted some decent gear for a crossbow build, and then i played that. while i was progressing that build i set my filter to prioritize the next build.the things that make ssf fun is the same thing that makes trade fun, the difference with trade is you can expedite some grinds and remove rng from the mix.

Hardcore player here, yeah i just dont die to bosses. its funny reading you softcore players cry about game balance but then I guess you are soft, (LOL!). Its getting kind of annoying though, like just get your resists up and dodge? Anyways i just want you guys to remember that god gamers (like me) are lurking here and laughing at your complaining about the game being too hard or punishing (lol when you die you just respawn?)
>>507837642yeah except instead of talking about a bad game now we're generaling a good one
>>507837801trading is an insane power spike. it will boggle your mind. I would avoid it in your first campaign playthrough just so you can Feel The Weight. i still dont trade on alts in campaign unless I really dont want to play until endgame, because it WILL trivialize everything up to end of endgame content.
>>507835236>absolute mastery>Tujen, betrayal and harvest every league for all league
I can not count the moments any more, where I went "oh yeah, they fixed this problem in 2016 in PoE1", while playing PoE2.Or whatever year it was. It's like they hired completely new devs to do the game, who just try to copy PoE1 with ruthless flair and the seniors are just chilling in the office and not checking wtf these new guys are doing. Yes, the game has good stuff in it as well, but the good stuff is not making me quit the game.rares are clearly visible in the packearly itemisation is fixed by the benchdeadly effects have clear and distinct sound effectsyou can not go CI with just 2 items, so not everybody an their mother is ES5/6L made more accessible through different meansremoved and later reworked sextants, because blocking and setting up was way to much (towers are old sextants on crack)made gems accessible for early game"fixed" melee with fortifyreworked scion life wheel, so not everybody is forced to got there. This is 100% future problem, when they try to fix current stare of ES and nuke completely, so everybody is forced to go lifereduced the mana cost of spells, to make spell casting easierascendancy made easier, to make it more accessibleshortened act zonesincreased monster density, so players do not have to travel multiple screens to the next pack...I can go on for the whole day. I did not expected PoE2 to be a perfect game on early access, but I did not expected it to repeat so many mistakes either.*EDIT omg, this was a mistake, you guys brought up so many repressed memories
>>507838095most people dont even know how to utilize that
>>507837239>I completely understand the concept of itthen you understand that it is you playing solo, using items you found yourself.what tools are the problem?
I want to fight bosses for fun but they're so stupidly expensive and farming them yourself is insane.
make runes replaceable
>>507838273>replying to my post from that long agowhy are you not playing the game you are shilling for so hard
Campaign feels like POE2 but endgame feels like an old version of POE with less QOL and more tedious stuff. I don't think GGG can swift away from the fast paced gameplay. It's inevitable and impossible to achieve.
>>507838156That's way too much text to just scribble on a bullet and shoot at Jonathan, so idk what the solution is. But yeah it does seem like they forgot a lot of lessons from poe1 doesn't it?
poe2 is mid af but finna pop off fr fr
>>507838393perhaps the delay is caused by him playing the game
ay im finna login bruh
>>507837802wouldn't a solution be to tie it to the skill gem? which i feel would make logical sense given ranged skills somewhat interacting the same with other modifiers to the skill
poe3 will fix it
>>507838156>This is 100% future problem, when they try to fix current stare of ES and nuke completely, so everybody is forced to go lifethey will just go mom/eb or es/ev
>>507830125>They've optimized their drivers for this game but it doesn't seem to applywhat the fuck do you mean it doesnt apply? game runs without a working driver, retard?
>>507837886so you played something that didn't rely on gear, and then funneled it to your other characters based on waht you found on anotherdont bother replying again retard
an incredible number of mentally ill people have become emotionally invested in their hopes that poe2 will fail (it won't)what causes this?
>>507838657is there no point blank? I had a really fun zerker build using point blank
Well this game was a stinker. Glad I got a code and didn't pay 30 dollars for it.
>>507838464it would be possible with a different stat system but yeah its impossible to balance + flat damage + %increased and + %more coming from like 8 different sources when the numbers are double to triple digit from each source. They would need to rework damage completely. the 8%increased damage nodes on the passive tree would need to be nerfed to like 2.5% or something similar, and then the rest of the tree reworked similar to that and skill gems similarly reworked. I dont see that happening desu so the game will just be poe2 for campaign then poe1 for endgame
>>507838740People have it in their heads that ARPGs are hyper casual offline games where you mash m1 and get a participation award at the end. Or just do daily chores like blizzshit. The paradigm shifting back has deeply upset them./d4g/ is dead btw.
>>507838728oh you are one of those retards who tries to league start a build that requires endgame uniques and 200d worth of gear. hecking based! keep at it, that howa strength stacker should come on line soon...

>>507838913Yeah but that was poe1. Poe2 by design does nof have fun (or crafting, or loot, or builds really) .
>>507838657Just slapping high damage on close range or high commitment skill gems makes sense to me.
>>507837548GGG is really anti "just crank the numbers" as far as balancing goes. Its why melee skills were dog shit for so long in PoE1. They literally just didn't want to crank the numbers even though it would solve everything in my opinion.
>>507839081>and So Did Many Otherssure thing buddy
>poe2 endgame is that d4 'slay all the monsters' objective that everyone hated in nightmare dungeons>except even worsekek
>>507839176Yeah i just don't know what they are worried about, maybe high numbers in general. but it seems very logical to just have melee do big hits, especially in a slower game like poe2
>>507839264melee skills were objectively more powerful before the rework. its just that totem gameplay is fucking shit and nobody wanted to play melee like that.

I just know that this system works for retards like myself so I recommend other retards to use it as well. We can all be happy and retarded together.
can any demon form witches let me know if the rarity from this persists into demon form? i know it deactivates weapon slots but im wondering if the rarity is canceled out as well (since its a non combat stat)

>>507842109when you load in the magic bolts, be it >ice shot>frag rounds>fire bombsyou "load a bolt" and THEN use the "crossbow shot" attack to use them, you do not cast "spells" separate from the basic attack, does that mean that both the basic attack and the magic bolts both do damage or only the magic ones?
>>507842295imagine if instead of posting this question again you took the time to actually check the stat in game in and out of demon form
>>507842272Oh, I know, I haven't gotten the other points yet though
>>507842352Sorry I worded my question in a weird way. I meant to ask how are they being hacked if GGG has already implemented 2fa. There's also the email verification that's enabled by default.
>>5078423523rd party app it is then
>>507842467yes instead of asking a question online i will take 10 hours to level a demon to 58 and then potentially waste all of my time if the answer is no
>>507842295your weapons including shield do not work neither does their stats i should know i played it for days until around lvl 85 ish so no rarity
tfw there are a bunch of gachaniggers in here (including me)
>>507842616that is so sad, i was looking forward to playing one but if it loses rarity there is no point
>>507842395you load an ammunition into your crossbowthen you fire your crossbow with the loaded ammunitionwhat you call the "basic attack" is probably the "basic ammunition / bolt" which is coming with your crossbowyou can only load one ammunition at a timethis should answer your question
>>507842514Actually, related to this, do I keep slamming T15s on boss nodes for the points or do I have to do T16+
Do you guys know if "energy shield+armour" armor has a higher chance to roll spirit and minion levels than only energy shield armour?

>>507843350read the tooltip retard it literally says affected by waystone drop chance aka suffixes
>>507844318That and the fact that you can only try citadels once have turned me off of the game for now. The rest of the peculiarities of the endgame are annoying but manageable to me, but the idea that I could take 300 maps to find a citadel only to die to some janky bullshit and have to do it all over again is too much.
Could they add a minion dps counter or would that not be possible?

>>507846825>75% chaos res>does literally no damagewhats the problem?
>>507843182Good lad. RNG to get an audition at an end-game boss is retarded to the max.
Any new info or is all of GGG still out to lunch? I find it strange that an entire company takes off at the same time. Aren't these things usually staggered so there is someone left keeping the lights on? That's how it's always been at any company I worked for.
aside from the aim jank, the bell feels really good to use. the sound effects are kino.
Why is the map edge so close to my starting position?
>>507847158If it can ring a bell, it will get the job done well enough.
>>507847405>>507846670Are you using the HoI ring? If so infusion will kinda brick it. If it's your main clear skill it's worth putting tempo in.If you have it someplace else and you're not willing to move it mobility is nice QoL.If you're looking for damage Ambush is decent since it's gonna be the skill that first hits the enemy most of the time.
>>507847445It wasn't exactly the mob's fault, I couldn't see the arrow rain because of the fucking trees.

>>507843182Whats the difference between the RNG of Shaper Guardian map drops and Citadels.I know this ranga faggot is some new player who's completely spoiled buy the conveniences of modern Poe 1, but back in the day the drop rate for Shaper guardian maps was very low and there were no horizon orbs to flip them.

>frostbolt feels like and endless ice wave on straight/narrow maps that you constantly feed by recasting it every few stepskinda neatwhen will maps start to become bullshit difficulty? currently at t5 and it's mostly a breeze. started to skip rituals tho, too much risk so far.
>>507848220>>507848647u are mad! tehee :)
>>507848725Depends entirely on your gearBut maps are not inherently hard, its the modifiers that make it or break it.A white t15 will be a walk in the park, while a juiced up corrupted t15 could potentially take 40 mins to complete while alive
New Zizarian video!The Citadel Problem!(are they really that hard to find?)
>>507848871I'm white
>>507848615>And keep the INT gems low(ish) level too I assumeYeah, you want level 11 gems (95 int). This is the minimum for cast on shock/freeze.>levelingLA and rods will mulch most anything, orbs and rods will instant kill bosses. Once you can get frost herald going with CoF you can stop using rods for clearing except for rares. I feel it's hard to incorporate frost herald until you're like 85ish, but maybe that's just me.
>Backwash boss keeps pushing my shit in in T16sokay then, I guess this is my wall
monk is fucking op but squishy
i wanted to see if I could tank a single floaty chaos orb on t15 and it one shot me through 4.7k hp pool with 60% chaos res and no damage modsthis is fucked upon the positive side i finally got a king invitation after 50 ritual maps
>>507846997>every ranger uses laI don't. Another case of retard thinking he knows all
>>507849187Post 5 seconds of you doing t18s
I bet they'll nerf ES and say armor is fine
>>507843182>atlas being complete dogshit is a common thingSo I'm not the only one (I don't usually read endgame discussions). Feeling a bit better now but still extremely demotivated to continue mapping. It's clearly extremely underdeveloped in a current state
>>507849264nta but he's right, you are indeed retarded
>>507848898I see, can't wait to reach those levels. Hope I keep finding those precursor tablets.
How do I get T16s? I only find T15s.
>>507849385I sort of don't care anymore desu, I got to T15s and beyond and unless something major changes in the endgame it's not enough for me to continue playing the game, maybe I'll check it out again when new classes come.>>507849621Corrupt a T15
>>507849542>ntaI don't believe you

>>507849264I've used all my irradiated + boss + gay zone shit and I'm not going to spend time to find another one to prove another build other than LA can explode those easy maps

THE LOATHSOME STINKWALKER
>>507840679Nah. I think the new gem system is fucking dogshit. It's supposed to open up combo gameplay but all it really does is prolong the grind for your one measly 6L skill and the rest of the skills you use are basically useless filler that you take to "maybe sorta do something for defenses or whatever". The exception to that is grim feast. I think the trigger mechanics are shit design and every one of them should be roved because they fundamentally break the game - poe1 knew this ever sin e they put in coc and have been nerfing it ever since. What made them quadruple down on stupid shit ii have no idea, but not a single interesting thing has been added to the formula with these changes
>>507849621they will tell you to corrupt your t15I did, a lot of themnever got a t16however got tons of t14 :)
>>507849187>when someone says "every X", they always and 100% say "no exceptions"They don't. Another case of autist thinking someone cares about what he thinks.
>>507841419>it's been cancelledBut you're playing it right now?
you should be able to use mace skills with scepters and make a cool magic/melee paladin guy. im pissed that you cant. realistically can you do a melee mage in this game? i know it was basically impossible in poe 1.
it's so painful watching people who already have a ton of currency make more like it's nothing, and then every time i give into temptation and slam a few exalts on a good item to see three shit mods pop up it's like, well there goes everything i've farmed in the last hour, surely i'll be able to buy an upgrade in a few days
Anyone having fun?
>>507850203>realistically can you do a melee mage in this game?all melee builds are magic because they spam aoe and projectiles
>>507850007>runs one of the broken skills that turns the game into a one button poe1 build>grim feast is okyeah prepare for the biggest nerf patch in poe history, its time for you to actually learn the game.
>>507850203The templar ascendancy kind of allowed it with the huge stat bonuses from using both attacks and spells. I think I only saw it used as a way to buff casters though.
>>507839081>he used random price check scripts off of RedditLMAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LITERALLY WHY THE FUCK WOULD YOU EVER DO THAT HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHA
>>507849756Anon, when you get to endgame you can flood the entire map with those. They aren't exactly hard to find.

>font of blood, font of rage and font of mana work on earthshatter crags left in the groundWhat in the fucking hell? Actually kind of useful because the crags can't die to damage and slams no longer break earth shatter crags either.
>>507850340Yes by playing Stardew Valley while waiting for another poe 1 league
>>507850340I am. The campaign is more enjoyable to play through than d2r's so that makes for a good time after the shift ends. I've ran five or six characters through it so far, and have been having fun trying to cut the speeds down more and more with each run.
>>507840250>>507840250>one of those new item price checkers has a key logger cause this happened only to standie andiesWhich one??
what are good leveling uniques for pconc? Also do you poisonburst until vine arrow and pconc? I'm not trying to spend a gruelling 20 hours leveling this character before nerfed
>>507850531>>507839081>>507841707>>507840985Did Awakened PoE Trade finally exit scam? I was wondering why they were waiting so long when the price of PoE 1 items is going to drop to nothing when PoE 2 comes out.
We need a total and complete shutdown on Ritual until we can figure out what the hell is going on with the retarded fucking dev who put it in the game.

>>507850960seems like it tbqh
>>507843534Ya seethe bitch?
I just watched that syrobe 6k ES CI build video on his monk but isn't that kind of shit? He only had about 30% evasion so everything was hitting him and he was getting chunked. He even had to run from bosses and mob packs to not die.
>>507851294Unless a streamernigger shows /deaths on their showcase video you can just ignore whatever they're posting. It's easy to make a high DPS build look ridiculously good even on T18s, until they get hit.
>>507850964ritual dev here.I'm working on the new version right nowI've reduced the size of the arena by half (too big = too boring) and added wisdom scrolls to the reward pool (so that you get more excited when you get something good)

Second diviy boiiiiis
>>507850495trust me i played templar every league it was not really possible. the best thing i ever got running was a scuffed hybrid build that used leap slam to stack up spell haste and then dumped it on divine ire. but selfcasting DI was always a meme no matter what compared to putting it on a totem.
That manaleech > es recharge of chayula monk sucks absolute ass, holy fuck its so bad
>>507851675GGG only comes back from vacation in february, I have plenty of time
>>507850540Yes and I finished the ones I was on last night and now I have to spend 30min-1hr getting to a cluster of towers to do it again to prove to a retard on 4chan that it's possible and easy on another build other than LA is not worth anyone's time
I miss poe1... SSF has broken me, I don't want to pick up blue items anymore
>>507850495>>507851780Is templar fun? I really like the class conceptually, but I have no idea what it plays/will play like.
self imposed SSF + currency change chads where we at?
https://youtu.be/WnB00nkLJKY?si=JZ0ARETzM5Q-pcPGit is shit, in act 3 I do no damage and have no defense. I was promised fast leveling
>>507850402Do you not know how to read? I didn't say grim feast was okay. I said the other spirit skills were dogshit.Why are you faggots so prone to misinterpreting criticism of your game as some sort of theological assault on your person? Have you seriously been sucking chris' cock this long that you cry like a baby getting his pacifier pulled when someone slaps you back to reality?The game is fucking shit
>>507851675what's wrong with grenades that they need nerfs? first time i'm hearing it
>>507851627take galvanic shard, shock the boss, and switch to shockburst round, she should be dead in 5 seconds
>self imposed SSFNo such a thing
I don't know how the fuck else I'm supposed to get more evasion on my monk with protect me from harm and acrobatics both taken. I only have 51% and I have a 1200 evasion chest piece with 40% on amulet and 117 rating on ring with 4 dancer stacks. I also took all the common evasion and evasion / energy nodes already. If I pick up morior my evasion will tank even more down to like 45%. I don't know how some people are getting around 60% with both those passives taken.
Does the atlas tree affect the campaign at all (like the rares and uniques get +modifiers)? I've rerolled and these rares are absolutely fucked up.
>>507850964It's a shit mechanic that should be removed from the game just like expedition
>>507851843Even if leech was good there aren't any pure phys skills worth using. All the quarterstaff phys skills for example are either utility skills or specifically designed as a trigger in the case of Whirling Assault.
>>507852054>following a "guide" that ends in " ???? "
>>507852054>end game stat stacking build as leveling guidethis is diabolical
>>507852054This is emiru isnt it?
>>507851060Literally just put a portal on one end of the breach, farm to the opposite side, log out, log back in, and port in
>>507852141just drop protect me from harm, it barely reduces damage from big physical hits that would one shot you anyway
>>507852141I have less eva than you on my chest piece and I'm at 77% eva with AcrobaticsDid you forgot your Wind Dancer?
>the passive tree changes based on what class you areWTF why was this never stated anywhere? I'm forced to play witch to play minionigger?
>>507852054Is she trans like other female PoE youtubers?
Duelist soon or there will be consequences.
reccomend me a new blood witch build im getting bored of mine
>>507852493>ai voice changeridk you tell me
>>507852453starting nodes are pretty much irrelevant
>>507852441Did you not read the post?
>>507852124How are you so weak willed, i bet you can't even play hardcore without clicking a checkmark because you are incapable of just deleting a character on your own when you die.
>>507852453Last minute changes to fuck over cross classing and enforce archetypes. Jon is a retard, prease understandu
>>507852015it was in a weird spot in poe 1 because str/int had conflicting playstyles and being a hybrid made no sense in that game, but its ascendancies could be extremely good. in particular it was extremely good at totem casting and minion builds, you could also cook up some pretty straightforward elemental damage melee crit stuff (glacial hammer etc) since one of its ascendancies literally just said your critical hits penetrate 100% res. it also had easy access to a bunch of melee staff nodes that nobody but me ever took, i assume since melee staff is less of a meme in poe 2 there might be more interesting support for him here. honestly i have no idea what its going to be like, theres a whole weapon for him (flail) that they made for this game that isnt out yet so who knows?
>>507852521ci spark
>>507852054you need sources of flat damage. before howa i think you basically need to use rings with high flat ele.
>>507852384sounds like her lol
>>507852669A lot actuallyLike she's trying to sound just a little bit different
>>507852570Except they very much aren't. They fucked every starting area so fucking hard the only viable way to escape starting areas is by pathing through all the shit nodes you didn't want to take and eating the 12 pt passive tax in the face.

How are you supposed to beat Ignanduk on a 2h mace character?I have to window to attack her. When she's flying around, I can't hit her.When she stops flying around, she spams the red circles which do huge damage and I don't have time to hit her with any attack.After she stops with the red circles, there's a very brief window to maybe get 1 attack in, but even then she can spam me with bone attacks and I might need to dodge.
>>507858959>I have to window to attack her*I have no window to attack her
>>507839554Easily the best boss in the game, it's actually so cool.
>>507859147how boring and small
>>507858959Just slap the shit out of her when she lands. I know it's kinda bullshit since she can put circles you're supposed to dodge right on top of herself, but there's really no trick to it. Put on perfect strike if you havent then slap the soul out of her body.>>507859384I find you shallow and pedantic.
>>507858959when she does the fire corridor thing i can usually perfect strike her twice from behind.
>>507860032I can't get to that phase without it taking 15 minutes.>>507859556>Just slap the shit out of her when she landsI'm finding this incredibly hard to do and it's taking ages because she resets all status buildup when she starts riding.
>>507861217unfortunately that's just how it is. they'll never fix melee so say Thank You and eat your food.
picrel is my lv 50 storm magein passive i specced into lightning damage, lightning resistance pen, shock upgrades etcwhat of these uniques can i swap out, and what should i look for? i struggle with bosses tremendously, currently in ACT1 crueli tried swapping wand for a 50% + spell damage and 50%+ lightning damage, but it literally lowered my damage insteadthanks!t. noob

bros is there anything that isn't expensive on gemling or am I boned?I just yolo'd into gemling and didn't realize it was just a stat stacker ascendancy and that shit is expensive. I don't really want to go through acts again though.
>>507873298You don't really have to play stat stacker, you have nodes other than the stat-stacking ones.
