>They really need to reduce rare drops by a factor of 100 at least and implement the "well rolled rares" mechanic to ground loot in maps, but they won't

>>546539320
Crafting matters more than ever now with veiled, essences, resonators and all that jazz. Ground loot literally cannot even roll the most desirable mods. If an IDed rare at least has a decent chance of being a 2c item that's an enormous improvement over the current state of loot
If retards complain that "no loot drops" it can be an atlas keystone or something. Hell, they could port the entire rare items part of the genesis tree directly to a set of atlas notables with "x% less equipment quantity" factors

I've been playing this game casually since 2012
I have almost always traded for gear
I'm so sick of buying shit from other players because 1 it just makes me quit the game and the league as soon as i have what I need

I know how to craft good cluster jewels and use those to get chaos / divs and buy my gear.

I'm so sick and tired of doing that so I decided I will find my own gear off the ground since I assumed thats where some of the good stuff would be. All of it is completely useless.

Maybe one of these ilvl84 rings will be useful for someones lvl 45 character on trade and thats about it.

Everytime I look at some youtube faggot crafting guide instantly I realize how little i want to deal with this convoluted system. I just want res and life as a bare minimum just to be able to go through the game.

Farthest I ever got in this game was breach league. after that I keep quitting leagues faster and faster through trade and boredom.

so is there somewhere I can learn this shit without having to waste 90 hours of my life and spending 100c on "crafting materials"

There isn't. PoE suffers heavily from content overload. The only people who know how the make good builds, how to craft good items, how to maximize all mechanics, are those who have invested thousands of hours into both playing the game and researching this stuff
PoE2 theoretically could have fixed this, but it's actively going down the same path because niGGGers worship conplexity

If you're trying to craft a physical bow you are shit out of luck from what I can see. I have a friend that did the same, started min/maxxing his tree for a phys bow and has gotten nothing of use for it.

>>546541439
resonators have many uses from low tier shit items (when its not meme tree league) to cluster crafting to endgame gg items with abyss sockets or other delve mods like the aura stacker helmet
delve uniques are decent too
>>
>>546541630
It is the same you're required knowledge and skill that game requires knowledge and skill.

see your issue is that you think knowledge and skill is something that should be rewarded and you think that those things being rewarded is healthy for the game and those people playing the game at the highest level and will in return get the most enjoyment from the game.

THE FACT IS that its ultimately FALSE

Knowledge + Skill does not equate to good game design, and fun game design at all LEVELS of play.

>you HAVE to spend money to make money in
Yea I kinda got this from poe2 even though map juicing is much less complicated. I knew this would be the case in 1 as well but I'm just not sure which mechanics + scarabs are worth investing into quite yet so I've just been playing semi-SSF.

>>546541947
Huh? I agree with you,though 20% is probably way too generous. But the vast majority of players doesn't and will never have the knowledge to make a proper endgame build or craft an endgame item by themselves. Do you think they should just suffer and run white maps until they get bored? Maybe you do, but they sure don't, so they copy an endgame build by their youtuber of choice. "knowledge gates" in the internet are just mean guidefagging

Then GGG should advertise the game as a crafting and stockmarket simulator, not as action roleplaying game.

It takes so much knowledge and skill to farm the Zodiac Spear in Final Fantasy XII

First of all you need to know where the chest is
Second of all you need to check if the chest spawned at all (10%)
Third of all you need to reload the zone every time you don't loot the spear (10%)
and FOURTH OF ALL (high skill) you have to loot the chest thousands of times because the drop chance is 1 in 1000 (0.1%)

Each run to the chest takes 5 minutes.

Get good

PoE has always marketed itself as an item chase game. The fact that you can acquire items in multiple different ways and not all of them are equally good is not the game developers problem. As i said, i think nintendie games are more up your alley

>Path of Exile is completely designed around items. Any game systems that can be itemised with random properties have been. Our flasks are persistent items that have mods. Our end-game areas can be found as Map items that have mods altering their challenges and rewards. We've gone as far as removing gold as a currency and basing our trade economy around orbs that can randomly reroll the properties of other items. We have carefully constructed our item system for veterans of the best Action RPGs.

The problem with your retarded point of view is that while the people who are """"""""""""experienced""""""""""""" are farming multiple divines / mirror ect, the rest of the player base is getting tricked into thinking anything they do holds any actual value.

Every item that drops on the ground is ultimately worthless. And you will sit here and scoff and say "of course dummy! why would the rare items on the ground be useful are you stupid!"

There is no place where an inexperienced player can sit and enjoy the game at a BASE level at a BASIC level. so the only people who will ever reach your esoteric end game are those are on government subsidy / have severe mental issues.

How does completing the atlas stop your character progress? If anything, that should just be the start.

and when I do that every single league I QUIT days later.

What the hell are you talking about? Im not even a PoE OG and i remember learning the ropes league after league
I farmed delve, harvest, legion, sanctum, harbingers, having zero idea how the crafting system actually works, why harvest juice has value, or what fossils do. But after some time I saw people crafting some simple items on youtube with fossils and it clicked to me and i started incorporating using fossils and have done so every league since. I never relied on ”rares from the ground” and I doubt most people do. They just price check their scarabs, currency orbs, harvest juice or whatever and sell it, then buy their gear from the trade website.
I never needed to know how to craft an item to have a good time or make a lot of currency and complete my build. In fact i remember when I was very new dropping a fractured axe, dont remember the name, and it had T1 hybrid phys, there were no other listings on the market. I listed it for 10c and got spam messaged by 10 people for it within a minute. Had to consult global chat why this item was so expensive (ended up being a 30 div sale i believe which more than doubled my net worth).
Anyways my point is I always knew there were systems above me I had no idea how they worked and I was part of this large economy. It makes the game feel alive in a way that no other game ever made me feel, the closest thing to it is Runescape. And they should never change this aspect of PoE. It being esoteric is what makes it so good
>>
>>546545419
OK. you don't like having to learn the game. for me, that was part of the fun. have you considered playing another game?
>>
>>546545716
The game is presenting items to me
Those items have the signifier of "Rare"
Those items are useless, they don't roll the most basic of necessary stats on them, I get more value from rolling eldrich currency on those items.
What exactly is the GAME trying to teach me in this moment anon?
That I should stop doing the hardest content possible because for whatever reason its not rewarding? that I should go sit in my hideout for hours and trade for recombinators and stare at some spreadsheet for 9 hours of my life?
>>
>>546545774
a lot of waffling here but this is correct, what gives poe its depth is that it just has a fuck ton of random stuff in it that all interact with each other incidentally. It's one of the only popular multiplayer games that has any learning curve at all.

I tried SST. Got to 5L, and was rolling into T14 maps, except i needed one specific unique item to round up the build and get 50% more damage from complete cold conversion - Hrimsorrow - and it refused to drop no matter what.
So i just gave up, tried mercs, they were shit, and just mothballed the whole thing. SSF is nice, i like it, but its not balanced around solo play.

Yeah I agree with the majority of this post
The big issue isn't that the systems exist but that the game is terrible at explaining them. Players are heavily encouraged to seek outside information sources. This wouldn't normally be a problem (I fucking love dorf fort and the wiki is basically mandatory for that game), but everything in this game is intertwined with the player economy. Because of the subjectivity and malleability of the economy, players can't solely use objective information like the wiki to determine what they should do - if you freeball experiment with everything you can get you'll be destitute and get nowhere. They're instead encouraged to look at youtube grifters who have a profit motive to fleece them, to hide tech or hoard or manipulate. Even here it's often hard to get detailed advice because money is this game's PvP and instead of sharing your cool tech you're encouraged to hoard it and profit off of people who for whatever reason can't exploit your niche market, whether that be knowledge or skill or time. It creates a cancerous bugman environment.
2 is better about this with most (not all) of its mechanics having SOMETHING in game that you can read to tell you how it works. There's still shit like the Recombinator where you really want a guide of course, but 95% of the time you can hold alt on something and see how it works. /poeg/ doesn't understand this is why 2 is WAY more popular with normalfags than 1 - the average noob can easily make it to t0 pinnacles with nothing more than ingame knowledge gained from learning and PLAYING THE GAME instead of getting spoonfed a build by some nigger streamer. This is the same reason certain streamers have seethed so hard over async in 2 and especially 1, because it's harder to pricefix when you have to actually sell the items you're listing.
tl;dr you can't save poe without killing fubgun
>>
I really hope you guys are pretending to be this bad. I'm not even being ironic, I sincerely hope this is just ragebait because it reflects incredibly poorly on poeg that the players here are posting in full earnesty "I simply can't progress without picking up fully usable gear off the ground"

>I need items I pick up to be useful
I understand you. My issue is like this
I want a system where the items that i find and have atleast something that i can use to be useful via crafting. And when i say crafting, i dont mean some mumbo-jumbo beastcrafts, the picrel nonsense. Just a straightforward crafting bench recipe. Make it cost 200 augmentation orbs to remove a designated mod. Make it cost 20 chaos to put crafted T1 life. Make it cost 10 regal orbs to remove suffixes. Make it cost 100 chaos to put can have 6 crafted affixes enchantment on any item. Make a system that works.
Nope, they just dont want to do it. Because it will kill RMT/investment value of the game just like Gabe made chinks jump out of windows with that glove/knife economy.
And what we got are a retarded crafting system that requires you to get a PhD equivalent, nerfs like 5 crafted affixes being nuked to just 3 (2 because that modifier is one of those three), and other nonsense.

I am tired of it all. The game can be a good arpg, its just that should it become like that, it will lose any value for chinese (and others like them) moneymakers.

good for scouring and using real crafting methods on.

the problem is you want drops to be good at every point of the game. they're good at the start of the game and in early maps are outclassed by crafting currency and other deliberate methods. why is that a bad thing exactly?

Well because Path of Exile doesn't seem to cater to your playstyle. There is however a game that does drop usable gear on the ground and whenever you see a specific color, you know that it might be valuable. Why not play that game instead? What you describe is exactly what Diablo 4 has to offer.

So what about
>Mines
>Area Damage
>Detonated
>Area of Effect
Those are capitalized and are in fact keywords, but the game doesn't define them. By contrast, let's take some of the terms in this Mastery pane that are also in 2
>Herald
>Herald Skills are a type of Persistent Buff that grant powerful effects on killing enemies.
>Aura
>Auras apply Buffs to Allies within a radius, or Debuffs to enemies within a radius of the source of the Aura.
>Reservation
>Reservation effects prevent a portion of a given resource — usually Spirit, though it can also be Life or Mana — from being used for other purposes while active. Reserving a resource does not change the maximum value of that resource.
>Area of Effect
>This Skill has an effect that applies to every target in its area, rather than picking specific targets. Areas of Effect that originate from a target hit by a Skill will add that target's size to their radius.
>Efficiency
>Efficiency modifiers act as divisors to the stat they modify. For example, 50% increased Reservation Efficiency causes your Reservations to be 67% of their base value, 100% increased Reservation Efficiency causes your Reservations to be 50% of their base value, and so on. Reduced Reservation Efficiency will cause the modified stat to grow larger instead of smaller.
>Curse
>Curses significantly Debuff affected targets. By default a target can have one Curse on them at a time. Higher Rarity enemies are less affected by Curses: 15% less Curse effect on Magic monsters. 30% less Curse effect on Rare monsters. 50% less Curse effect on Unique monsters
>Resistance
>Resistances reduce damage taken of the corresponding damage type — Fire, Cold, Lightning or Chaos — up to a Maximum. Fire, Cold and Lightning Resistances are Elemental Resistances. Player resistances are lowered as you progress through the game, and can be improved with Equipment, Passives & Quest items.

There should just be an auto-cull mechanic where if something drops as white with no quality, it should just be hard deleted, not just hidden from your filter. It would fix all the shitter complaints immediately because that's literally all they care about.

>30000 white belts need to drop so that Mageblood can
we both understand how the rarity system works, the difference is that for some reason you believe that it should be defended on Karui Azurite Mining forums instead of reworked into something that makes any fucking sense
Why do these white belts need to drop? Why can't they just be deleted when they fail the roll to become rare? Why can't the rare belts be deleted when they roll 3x T6 mods?

I don't think so because I remember that specifically being one of the most glaring omissions considering how autistic it is about explaining everything else.
The keyword system is one of the best things about 2 - the only thing stopping you from making a broken build out of a niche interaction is your own lack of knowledge and you having not connected the dots yet, all the pieces are there in the game for you to use. It's the exact same phenomenon as in MtG which is what BFR was aiming for from the start; if you look at meta decks for older formats like he plays you'll see tons of strange powerful interactions, there are like half a dozen ways to win just by decking yourself.
It'd be a huge workload to backport this system to 1, but I unironically believe it would do more for retention and attracting new players than even WASD would and Jonathan has already said they want to do that eventually.

The issue is that not only is there no system that allows you to lock that res in and wipe everything else and then craft the rest, it is also not worth to even bother because with current systems it would just cost far too much than just buying something better.

avoid 90% of damage

This is straight up the one league (maybe second after necro but necro crafting is much more involved) that this anon's arguments don't even make sense.

You can absolutely get a usable wand from nuBreach.

You need the elder and shaper mod on blue bases then you beastlock it until the awakeners orb leaves you with an open prefix then you veiled exalt after you did prefixes cannot be changed and hope to unveil ele pen

>>546554534
k
1. have two wands with only int stacking prefixes (elder and hunter one), one has to be the base you'll be using
2. click awakaner wand on the shitty wand onto the wand you'll use
3. if prefixes are full, annul and pray
4. if you hit annul and suffixes aren't full craft prefixes cannot be changed and veiled exalt slam
5. if you hit prefix unveil and hope for you get the one you need
6. craft prefixes cannot be changed and scour
7. craft a shitty suffix mod and slam exalts till you hit t1 int and any other useable mod (i wanted crit multi but settled on that since i ran out of exalts)
8. craft crit and you're done

the dagger i posted was with the pre nerf recombinator in 3.25
believe it or not, you could recomb a 2 mod item with 3 mod item and have a ~25% chance to get those 5 mods on the result + an open affix for crafting. it was pretty fucking retarded.

>>546555129
Not at all, you have the brainlet version in which you just execute at ranks 1 and 0, interrogate at ranks 2 and 3, and make sure to have a rank 3 safehouse leader before you run in.

And then you have the slightly more involved 2-2-5-5 setup which isn't much more complex, and isn't more profitable anyways

with ye olde apparition scarab you could get as many influenced bases as you could ever want. the expected number of awakener orbs isnt that high either, for the dagger it was like 8 or something. you can use beast locking to get a bunch of clean 2 mod recomb bases

I know how to use recomb and even old recomb, that's how I crafted my whole gear with t1 ES prefixes and int. The problem was getting enough SPECIFIC bases, prophecy wands and the scarabs themselves. Also, I could technically reroll influences with the harvest bench but that would take up a fuck ton of my time and with how long phrecia lasted was not feasible for me.

apparition scarab dropped influenced bases like crazy before they nerfed it in 3.26. you didnt even need to harvest reroll them. the chest needed ilvl 86 necrotics which was way harder than prophecy wands (its a low weight base + only rares and uniques in t17s drop ilvl 86 ones) and it was perfectly fine, like an hour of farming for enough to roll comfortably

>>546556776
>Sure. 24 hours total (spread over several days and two weeks), on a non-meta build.
ok you can absolutely do this wtf lol. Doesn't take long to get the bases or alt spam them. Harby or Heist for annul orbs is basically immediate. Veiled Exalt and the Divines will take the longest but absolutely doable in less than 12 hours of pure play, especially if you are trying to get divines from like Fortunate div cards or something.

I'd say you could easily do this in under 12 hours using any build that can comfortably do T16s and kill Catarina.
>>

>>546557085
the orb of awakening. its annoying to farm because you need to kill sirus who has a like 20% chance to drop one and hes a master of stalling. you also need the sirus frags to begin with which requires conqueror guardian maps. kingsmarch mappers can just run the maps but its still a bit of a process

>>546557186
I know it dropped a ton of bases pre nerf, but I was constantly running out of them even when using vendor recipe trying to hit them. I still got what I wanted and getting a proper necrotic armor was a non issue for me, just made a quick edit to my loot filter for that one base to tink when it dropped as ilvl 86. Took me like a day of running t17s to have a quad tab of necrotics for recomb food.

I'm playing trade and every piece of gear on my character was gotten from either the tree or a synth base that I bought and crafted onto. If you want what you're talking about, play Grim Dawn. You can even target farm certain mobs in that game to get rares with certain mods. That's the actual answer instead of dogshit D4 where loot rains from the sky.

I'm struggling a bit with L83 izaro's final form when traps are enabled, if traps are disabled I can kite him around the room and kill him eventually but with traps I just don't have the room to maneuver and I end up getting clipped and blown up.
I know the body armor is really holding my defenses back but the damn +2 level gems on it is doing so much for my damage since its +2 directly on the minion and then another +2 on the empower. Feels like I either need way more damage so I can kill izaro quickly or I need to get more phys res from somewhere. What's the weakest part of this? I'm thinking at the moment its probably my boots (putting aside the armor since I'm not sure how I'd claw back the damage) but I'm hesitant to give up the CDR on them, which I think I would need to do to get more out of that slot. Maybe swap out the belt for an armor belt with CDR?
Also the intuitive link and helmet actually doesn't really do much in izaro's fight since there's not really much to farm charges off of, so the intuitive link drains my mana without having much payoff as well as izaro not even really doing enough damage to the reaper to kill it even without the 65% less damage from the helmet.
https://pobb.in/VZf8L7V5Rd-N

>>546563407
You just need more damage
It's not too difficult to nohit Izaro but he does hit hard so the longer the fight goes on the higher chances you'll be bopped

>>
>>546563608
Yeah alright, ta. I used to use the 100% crit mace with a destructive link and that does way more damage than the intuitive link setup. I suppose maybe I'll bring that a long and swap it in when I get to izaro.
What am I missing here from the typical minion damage check list? I think I see people using helmets with +2 to minion skill gems a lot but it feels like a bit of a shame to stop using the cool link helmet.
>>546563829
I could probably afford to run gifts but it feels wasteful so I've been doing tributes until I feel comfortable that I'm not going to wipe.

Corruption is an inherent trait of virtue gems which are basically coalesced pieces of the Beast's power. The whole reason Dominus was on Wraeclast was so he could fuck with gems and Vaal blood magic without the rest of the church getting on his ass, but Malachai was the one who manipulated him into it.

A big thing is that a lot of these people think they are smarter than the build creator or they don't understand what is important about a build so they try to cheap out on certain bits and then wonder why their DPS is 1/10th what it should be.

I made these gloves and have been wanting to run them with something but really don't know if it's worth building around something like this just for triple curse. It's cool but not really THAT good, any ideas?

Is there any sort of crit-based chaos build? It doesn't have to be poison/DoT necessarily, as the despair works for all chaos dmg. Replica alberons would probably rather have shaper's touch I figure.

Also if it can include a HH its preferable

Been having a ball the last couple of days doing a mix of crafting, chatting in Global, and a couple of dudes even got into an argument about how to make me stronger lmao
I've got a lot of changes and my build feels awesome, was helped a lot through crafting by several people explaining how to do things better. I didn't know you could repeatedly craft colored sockets to roll but with a locked amount, so the first time I put 2 green on my armor and then instantly hit it with a chromatic and lost them lmao
Bought a decent armor, spent most of my currency on a Yoke, rolled a stinky purple belt (not the expensive one), I figured out Eldritch Embers/Ichors (the small ones) and got stats I liked from them. Shit has picked up speed and feels great, doing t5-t8 maps now with relative comfort (I can still die if I get stuck or my frames drop).
I even put together an idea all on my own!
Infernal Cry + More Duration + Hextouch + Flammability. Hextouch said it could support it and I instantly started to wonder if I could get more fire resist reduction and now I'm using it. Also got my last Ascend. Up to 3 Divines I've gotten out of drops too

i think with divinity being an apparently real and tangible thing, like corruption, it's a matter of people giving that divinity to innocence, who then got people to give that to his brother as well
but then with the beast consuming divinity, you'd think they'd go, like, back to being people or whatever, but it's not like the large groups of people ever stopped believing in these guys.
you also have stuff like kitava becoming as strong as he is because he plays into his made up shit. like he's the cannibal god, so when the karui slaves take over theopolis, then feeding the citizens to kitava, kitava becomes all the more powerful. no divinity juicing required there, i guess? unless him cannabilizing makes the karui there believe in him more / provide more divinity

I don't understand what their move was with POE2. Ultimately, it was the opportunity to reset the game completely, make a big overhaul and fix the wrongs with the original version. But it seems they are slowing turning it into POE1 again, and vice versa, The end result looks like a mix of both games, where neither player bases will be satisfied.

I always put on Soul of Ralakesh on zoomzoom builds at the start of the league. Then when you get some cash money you can buy a bleed immune ring. When you're broke on a CI build 20quality Steelskin + Automation is alright.

For freeze you can do Brine King, a rare boot mod via bench craft or Arctic Armour. Assuming you can't put on Purity of Elements or can't afford Stormshroud/Ancestral Vision yet. You gotta be freeze immune (and shock immune) all the time in maps

depends on your level obviously but enough that 5 runs should put you from level 70 well into 80s (you could start at 69 too, but at 68 you're at a ~20% xp penalty). it dries up in the 90s, of course, i think you need something like 9-10 runs (so like 3-4d at current prices) to go from 97 to 98
that's not counting xp omens either, which would probably be really impactful at early levels.

you don't "hand in" kirac missions. the entirety of kiracs missions is just getting one after killing a boss, then running them from your map device.

the actual utility of doing kirac missions is that he gives you a wide selection of maps for each tier you have available missions in, which often include maps you haven't completed on the atlas yet, and you can reroll these missions with various scouting reports which you can look up and read what they do yourself.

about half an hour for 5 runs i guess? it's 5 emblems so a bit over 5 minutes per run + the time it takes to start each + the time it takes to end each
last i checked, the only requirements from you are that you get at least 3500 hp/es total and you cap your chaos res (dusktoe + delirium essence on a belt + amethyst flask used when charges reach full). then you just stand next to the other people and the aurabot should keep you alive

also if your pc isn't great you might want to consider reducing the game's resolution and having your atlas open during the run cause it can be very intensive, and if you crash, there aren't any portals left for you to re-enter

>People not getting everything from the wiki is a good thing. And who would want to correct data every time they change stuff each patch.
there are things that can't be reflected in-game without a gigantic window of multiple paragraphs like PDR calculations and notable interactions for certain uniques. Now people update it with only the most basic information, basically using info from the reveal period when the hype is the highest.

Vaal have a ton of gods
Arakaali (Azmeri LARPer), Kamasa, Yaomac, some snake god, maybe Ralakesh and Tangmazu

to be fair divinity is not omnipotence in the PoE universe, it's just a tier above human plebs. the cosmic eldritch beings for example are on a tier above the gods of wraeclast. we don't even know how many other continents are on the planet wraeclast is located, replete with their own pantheons. we don't even know what our player character is exactly in the grand scheme of power rankings, given that it can kill all of these things.

or they just have existing believers, like tukohama for example who still exists in poe 2 despite being the first little bitch boy god that we kill in poe 1.

down what, a few percent from an inflated price to a still-inflated price? and only because of foulborn mageblood which is the same thing but "different" so collectors want one.

prices at this point in league are significantly higher than nearly every past league at the same point, which is extremely odd considering they nerfed nearly every avenue of currency printing before the league began. we should have expected to see prices shrink since there's simply less currency going around in the economy, but we've seen the opposite and high tier items are more expensive despite less currency existing. what do you suppose this means?

>>546594763
it's actually insane if you do something like use purities and invert the enemy's resists, e.g. Rakiata's Dance

>>546594763
some auras don't affect allies (for example pride)
some auras are useless for enemies (for example determination if you're not a phys build)
some auras are detrimental to enemies with certain interactions (res invert)
reservations don't have to be auras (heralds etc.)

but also you want to start focusing on how you want to make money, particularly some easy to get into farming strat that doesn't require a lot of scarabs yet like selling Alva temples, Harvest, or Harbinger. You can look up beginning farming strats on YouTube.

Use that money to make your build better so you can kill the bosses that give you voidstones which makes getting t16 maps back easier and allows for dropping valuable t17s.

I sincerely don't get all the love or want for SSF. You're basically just purposefully playing a shitty version of Path of Exile. Especially now with async mode, the only reason to play SSF is the smallest amount of gamer cred because there are dozens of builds that invalidate everything except uber pinnacle content.

In exchange you give up niche builds that use a lot of uniques, pursuit of minmaxxing, and the inability to engage with certain farming strats or mechanics because of the lack of scarabs. As far as I can tell, the only reason people play SSF is so they don't get envy when Empy posts his 500 mirrors.

SSF is about progression and finding ways to do that. Trade is about farming and giving up 80% of the game.

>divines rapidly approaching 100c
when i went to sleep they were 135c. what happened?
>>
>>546609124
not really
I'd probably have to shoot meth to get the same amount of enjoyment from watching some chud play games, versus me blasting maximum juiced maps with 200%+ movement speed and fullscreen clear with 1 mouse click.

I am in maps for the first time since you had to chase a bitch through them to get your map device in your hideout
I have
NO clue

I bought a Jiquani's Potential. The numbers seems crazy. What do i do with this? Stack a bunch of int and ES but then you have life bullshit to deal with. Some kind of conruscrating thing? or hybrid life / es. Help me live my life poeg

the big gamble ones like maven and eater aren't worth but the annoying ones like uber shaper and uber uber elder are actually decently profitable

how is TFT coping with becoming completely irrelevant?

>>546611491
They have cognitive dissonance as much as Larry posters thinking he's a woman.

doesn't the TFT mafia make 99% of their money from crafting services

>>546611054
Probably a hybrid inquisitor.
There's a foulborn kitava's thirst that casts on 200 life spent with a 0.1 second cd you could use to make a frostbolts setup.
>>
>>546609387
congratulations, you have reached the end of the maze and thus are no longer cattle
there's a reason why many poocattle stop playing after getting MB or finally getting their big boy build online
the poocattle are only chasing the dopamine hit of their self perceived struggle
>>
Game's fun
>>
>>546611054
Coruscating Elixir, Eternal Youth, Pain Attunement, Zealot's Oath. Build normal regen for your ES and use uninterrupted recharge on life to pay for spells. Can go for things like Energy Blade or Foulborn Kitava's Thirst if you want. Lotta things work since you just have a fuck load of flat damage, but at the end of the day you're still holding a staff so enjoy having no shield charge.

>>546611839
are you the kind of person thats also cheating in single player games and edits their d2 character? :D
>>
should I keep doing kirac missions once I hit red maps?
somehow they seem inefficient, and T15 maps are dirt cheap anyway
>>
>>546612359
Just roll them for lush harvests and harvest beasts. Or if you need guardians or something you'll get those out of Kirac too.

ever since the release of the memory shit and zana coming back i havent heard a single person say "stay sane exile". is it really just a symptom of it no longer being an oldfag type thing to say (since it was included in a new update) and therefore people didnt feel like they could virtue signal that they were awesome and cool for being 30+ years old have played one videogame for the majority of their life?

huh? what?

Are we kill

dead league

>>546619391
I got killed by ground fire and was surprised since I thought I had it capped. Teleported to the shores and was at about 50%, teleported to hideout I was overcapped by like 20%. And I don't have purity of elements or anything like that which would be turned off in a town.
Then I googled around and found people complaining about this.
>>
>>546619216
they do thoughbeit
after the big 3.0 update or whatever return to oriath was the resistance penalty was something that applies to your character rather than being applied as a zone-wide effect
>>
>>546620082
Oh.
How the hell did this stupid fire degen kill me in under a second then god damn.
And why the hell are my ele resistances 30% lower while I'm in town

It should be embarrassing for everyone that the PoE wiki still can't tell us what Blasphemer's Grip does. The ghost effect is definitely not just applying curses, as you would know if you ever saw a ghosted boss zooming around at double speed, but apparently no one knows what the numbers on that ghost buff actually are.

Lack of loot is massive 2rist slander campaign

its only like 80% less loot than last patch its not that big of a difference

Personally I have no issue with loot
If anything, it means I get to play the game more if I have to spend less time picking up stuff from the ground.
