brosi got my first mageblood
grats bro hope you didn't buy it like a cuck
maybe I should RMT and finish my challenges

>>548203078I sure can't wait for the insane reveal followed by garbage patch notes like in literally every single post-affliction league
>deliver undercooked league>everyone hates it>deploy one (1) patch that addresses none of the complaints>start hype for other game>repeat ad infinitum
>>548206420A man who shits in two toilets has no clean ass.
>>548206420I think the league is good, although i didn't play that much so i'm probably the mean player. Foulborns and Bloodlines are cool additions. The mechanic is weak and caps out early though. Maybe because its a repeat league it feels more played out idk.
dont mess with anime weapon
>hate ubers>hate t17s>hate t16.5s>hate memory strands
>>548207446>the mechanics of the league are weak and everything sucks>7/10Why are zillenialls afraid to rate anything poorly? I see this shit everyone online. They will go to some trendy hipster joint and order some gay food and crap on it then give it a 7 or 8 out of 10. I blame george bush and gameinformer magazine.
>>548207728What do memory strands even do? Like I've seen a bunch of gear with them on it, but can't really figure out the distinction. Worst part is I'm sure it's been explained to me before.What makes a map 16.5?
with Kingsmarch, there is zero reason for you to not already have a Mageblood
I just don't think 3.27 is the worst league in Path of Exile history and the historically low retention rate obviously reflects something else, that people are bored with Path of Exile 1
>>548207910extremely hispanic post
DELETE KINGSMARCH OR POE1 DIESDELETE ASYNC TRADE OR POE1 DIES
>>548208227The nose on this post can be seen from outer space.
>>548208219So instead of the league being a little lame (it is), its THIS 4 months that are everyone being bored? Are you retarded?
>>548208316>I just don't think 3.27 is the worst league in Path of Exile history
>>548208082Stop judging my lack of a based belt! I send out about 1m shipments pretty frequently when I can.
>>548208287>DELETE ASYNC TRADE OR POE1 DIESHe's right though, trade was good friction. Removing yet another layer of player interaction takes away player investment and lowers retention time by a large amount. You'll never experience those funny or frustrating moments again that can only happen when two people interact. It's the same thing as people who remember the times before classic wow when you actually had to interact with people in mmo's and all of the memorable moments that created.
>Poo2 patch is going to be more Vaal shit that directly re-pastes 'le mysterious past'Where are the risks for the new game? For all the chest puffing that Poo2 is a novel sequel and its 'own thing,' from Poo1, they sure are lacking balls to make the story its own thing. At least other hack companies fool people by making a sequel game appear to be brand new and then throwing in an old baddie as a plot twist.
>>548208517>the game should be shittier because I am nostalgic for made up internet stories about player interaction
>>548208517No one will miss old trade. You are a contrarian hipster faggot.
>>548208547>muh story Literally no one in the history of ever has given a shit about poe story. For years whenever someone asked about it the reply was always it sucks it doesn't matter and it makes no sense don't even think about it. This hasn't changed, no one is picking up the game for the story.
>>548207608>modded flying scimitars raping players because they equip a rare scimitar with megabuffed affixesclassic
Poe's only issue is Jonathan killing it for PoE 2. It's a game deserving of a team that actually wants to work on it so it can still progress. Settlers was one of the most successful leagues ever and would did Jonathan do afterwards? Absolutely nothing.
>dude if GGG just buffed loot and bad skills, everyone will love poo 1 again!!!Yeah man I'm sure millions of people are waiting for selfcast fireball to be meta so that they can finally get a mageblood (acquirable in one week of Kingsmarch crops)
>>548208728Your high time preference blinds you to the greatness of the world built by fair skinned men.
>>548208395It's certainly up there especially when you factor in that they murdered a simple and fun league mechanic and made it even worse with 2's tub water dripped all over it.
I never played pd2, can I just go with the usual builds from d2 and do all the new shit?
>>548208821In the end I don't care that much about how good the plot is either but I just don't enjoy looking at Vaal shit. I'd basically take any other environment aesthetic over it.
>>548209089>It's certainly up thereNo, I simply don't think that's true. Also anyone who insists they were absolutely doing Breach before 3.27 is lying, breachstones were worthless and none of the breach uniques were good either. All breach scarabs were less than 1c.
>>548208459>1m shipmentsOf what and to where?
>>548209137I don't think jonathan is aware of a biome existing outside of the jungle or desert.
NOOOOO YOU *MUST* SPEND HOURS WHISPERING TO PEOPLE WHO DON'T RESPOND OR THIRD WORLDERS WHO WILL MARK UP ITEMS WHEN YOU ASK TO BUY THEM!!!!!! THAT'S SOVL!!! THAT'S SOVVVVVVVVL!!!!
>>548208517Post your scalp, baldy.
>>548209636>THAT'S SOVL!!! THAT'S SOVVVVVVVVL!!!!This but unironically. What zoomoids don't understand is that only through trial by fire can little gems of pure fun be made. Many of the greatest memories I have of gaming came from systems that could be objectively called bad.
bought a new compute for black friday for poe. Will a 5080 be enough for whatever unoptimized Vaal crap gets cooked up??
>>548209952>pure funOld trade was not "pure fun" you absolute fucking cretin
>>548210061>why do morons pretend not to understand the arguments so no discussion can be hadYou are boring, we're done go back to playing in the kiddie pool son.
Actually got my account locked lmaoSee ya niggers, 13 years of this game was enough

>>548209229You're completely wrong. Chayula's splinters/stones were steady income and grasping mails are a thing, retardbro.

>>548210175respect for speaking your truth
I like 3.27 because every map feels like a complete waste of time just like poo2
>>548210734https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schizophrenia
>>548209229reddit brained retard. can your mind not comprehend doing a mechanic just because killing monster fast is fun? you not place any value on xp/hr?
It's almost a shame this build was for such a filler league, but I am having fun regardless.
14daystogo
>>548212298well gimme the pob anon I gotta get these SSF challies done somehow
>>548212504>SSFI'll save us both the time. I made the build because I found a Svalinn and Berek's double explody on my own. I also farmed enough to buy a MB.
FILL THE TUB NOW JONI NEED POO 2
>>548212696ok yea I've not even seen the knight or whatever his name was kek
>>548212504its eblade / ee ignite elementalist actually a very good build in ssf. although you might want to start with a high damage skill like eviscerate
>>548208821Shut up nigger>>548209137This is a fair complaint though, we already had a shitload of Vaal stuff in Act 3
>>548212851I've been running Kalguur scarabs/nodes/map device for most of the league and have found like 10 craters, so getting a shield out of it is pretty lucky I think it has a 2.5-3% drop rate.
No more tub jokesThey're hurtful and they're destructive
PoopOfExcrement2Debate me. You won't.
>>548207954I am a craftlet but I recently watched a video of a multi mirror craft, and I believe strands allow you to "supercharge" mods?
>>548208517Ah yes the memorable player interactions of being literally unable to do small trades even a couple of days into the league because no one will answer your whispersOr literally every search being filled with dirt cheap items with no intent to sell just to trick awakened poetards and uncertain trade checkers into severely undervaluing their itemsLet me ask you: do you miss pre-currency exchange currency trading?
Trading in person is aryan sovl Async is for the tubbed
in person trade desperately needs a penalty for people who put up a listing and then dont sell the fucking itemits impossible to implement though
Strands are retarded because their only use cases are to pre-craft items using methods that DON'T USE STRANDS or to transfer mods to an item with strands and then yolo Unravelling to try to move T2s to T1s. In every fucking case you don't interact with the strands at all until the final yolo. Foulborn augs/regals/exalts are strictly better memory strand items and they don't pollute floor loot with 10,000 extra worthless items that Neversink thinks you should see on uber strict plus.
>>548209229Breach was commonly used to generate shitloads of monsters to kill you shit eating retard
i attempted to use non-instant trade once this league to be nice for the peeps who may not have a merchant tabthey didnt answer the pmand i never tried to be nice again
nuBreach is poe2 sovlOld breach was useless and abandoned and didn't drop anything anyways
The currency exchange is kino. Async trade is not. Simple as.
>>548212918Eviscerate really wants to put points into some retaliate shit to make it less painful to play, however it is great when your stats are lower. When you can get like 20-25M ignites just switching to an actual skill is better in my opinion. Also the higher damage of stuff like eviscerate is mostly useful on uber pinnacles and I hate the retaliate skills vs them.You're right though that using eviscerate at the start is good.
>noooo i need my item NOW NOW NOWZoomers killed this game
>>548213829I hope it gets ported to 2 with even more walls.
>>548209229poo2 tourists aren't sending their best today
>>548213835I like async for gearing new characters. makes it all very quick
>>548213698unravelling fucking sucksthe odds are way too low outside of mirror crafts that use locks to ensure it actually upgradesits real useful for awakener orb beast locking though>they don't pollute floor loot with 10,000 extra worthless items that Neversink thinks you should see on uber strict plus.strand rares are very well rolled, its common to see one with 4-5 t1 mods
>>548213789Just as in PoE2, as soon as async was introduced, i filtered the trade site to async only results.
>>548208517>>548213461Even here in /poopg/ it was very common to see posts saying they wouldn't bother leaving their map for 1c/1ex trades especially not after a couple weeks into the leagueAnd I specifically include 1ex here because it persisted even after 2 was changed to not consume portals unless you died. Even if you're on a decent PC and have 2-3 second loads, it's still not worth the disruption for such small quantities of currency.
>>548208517This is a very funny post because PoE has been a real money trade game for a decade, there are literal cartels that make their yearly income from selling items and currency in the game, yet your only problem is when GGG decides to chip away at this years too late to save the game.
i don't like async because you can't bulk price check items anymore
D2's act 3 is such dogshit
tradies are so silly. Why don't you get your own items?
>>548213698Really? I don't even notice a difference. The idea of "augment but less shit" though is absolute aids.
>>548214905they haven't realized they're mountmogcheevo drones yet
>>548209265some kind of mix of dust/zanth and usually to kalgurr, just got a divine and 3c from one that came in>>548213184Huh, neat!
auto rollers bros what do we be rolling?
>>548214905I would only play SSF if it wasn't for scarabs. Not having juice for the content I want to run is dogshit and I switch strats quite often to keep the game fresh.
>>548215029you are retarded
>>548215062he is rightunless you are unemployed german nigger you have no scarabs to play with in ssf
>>548203078Why would anyone play HC
Why do I keep dying even though I went ES?????
>>548215228scarabs are dark patterns.
>>548215301you eat dark patterns straight from the toilet
>>548215029ive come to terms with it and decided to maximize my characters ability to blast 8 mod deli maps. you do get enough scarabs to target farm mechanics like harbinger, essence, beasts etc for a while. but yeah the "endgame" just isnt there.
Cadiro should sell sextants that use gold to power scarab-like effects on your maps.
SSF is only fun till you get to like 4stoneafter that is asscancer
>>548216004What does Super Street Fighter have to do with anything
>>548216004run's done after you get 4stone, everything else is grinding for the sake of it. now it's time for you to ascend to ruthless and get 4stones
>>548209229You pissed off the samefagging shitskin with this but he does have a point. Breach was mediocre loot but great for exp and fairly satisfying "kill a shitload of mobs" gameplay with none of the awkward start-stops of harbies or abyssReal problem with nubreach is that it's clearly designed with scarabs in mind and in a game where everything is balanced around scarab juicing. It'll probably be less aids once it goes core and you can put points and scarabs into it but right now it scales pitifully. Any build capable of comfortably doing T16s (i.e., everything with a >0.1% playrate) will effortlessly stomp Ailith defenses and the rewards are JUST good enough to justify doing them unless you're already loaded. So you're in for a couple minutes of bland white noise every time with little chance of getting something useful. The only way you can get anything close to previous Breach is with the Unstable one at high delirium and packsize. Vruun is cool but he's a pushover and Esh+Tul aren't even classified as a pinnacle fight so the entire league mechanic hardly scales into the endgame at allAlso wombgift droprates are shit to the point where I've purposefully unequipped my grafts just to clear the blood out and get rid of the notification, I have literally nothing to spend it on
>>548216004truent
>>548216207I find this excuse to be strange. A "new" mechanic that an entire league is based around should be the best it's ever going to be and then nerfed afterwards while giving some power back through the tree and scarabs. It should never be the other way around.
>>548216449it usually isggg just dropped the ball on this one big time because theyre fucking retarded and hairful
>>548216449You can call it an excuse if you want but that's clearly what the issue is, it simply can't compete with any of the properly juiced mechanics
>>548210175Adding this to my unfair bans compilation
>>548216004it applies to every game mode desu
>>548213461The downside to all that is your build is now complete in 5 hours and you quit out of boredom because you have nothing to look forward to except for .01% power gains. I've been there done that for decades, the easier these games make it to progress the faster you get sick of them. If I had my way there wouldn't be any trading at all. Inb4 you tell me to go play ssf, don't worry I'm already there.
>>548214850>playing d2 without mh>playing d2 without 8man partyayylmao im laughing at you
>>548217069lol mazed
>>548217069If your system relies on chink pricefixers to work it's a shit system
>>548214034You are stealing your own fun, the best part of any arpg is the beginning before you get powerful.
to be honest nu breach is just not a good mechanic its blight without the towers. whats the idea here? how could this ever be fun or interesting? if the defense encounters were more difficult, they would actually become less fun because you would either die or fail to defend ailith with no ability to do anything about it. want to know what that feels like? >click the blight node on the atlas that replaces one lane with bosses>roll "movespeed cant be lowered below base" on the map>use titanic scarab + titanic scarab of legend + wisps + whatever to make it as difficult as possible>watch in amazement as the bosses walk towards the pump and destroy itsuper fun experience. theres a reason all the redditors were crying about the fortress being too hard, obviously it was their fault for playing a dogshit build but its miserable to be in that position.
>>548217219Is that why the two most iconic uniques in the entire game are twink leveling ones?>inb4 mb/hhNot even close
>>548216207Honestly, pretty sure there were supposed to be scarabs on release, or maybe not but there is a section for them already. Would love to have them because you're pretty on-point. I like the mechanic, I enjoy the concept, but outside of Schizo Mirror or just doing regular defenses/breaches, I don't even touch it. Sometimes I can go several maps without seeing a wombgift, let alone a GOOD type of one, so I just get disappointed when I'm doing that and not something else like if I could have a second Harvest. And I don't even use Scarabs for Harvest or anything else, but they still feel rewarding enough without them.
>>548217219Used to be the case when the majority played on HC, nowadays people seem to hate the progression
>>548217069>The downside to all that is your build is now complete in 5 hours and you quit out of boredom because you have nothing to look forward to except for .01% power gains.that is problem of trade not async you niggeractually async reduces amount of cheap items because ppl stopped putting random rares they found in the mass priced tabs
>>548217069To keep players playing, your items should deteriorate so you have to replace them. Deterioration could be kill based so its faster the stronger you are. This would balance fast and high skill players against low skill players and create an item sink in the economy
>>548217391>I don't even use Scarabspost the rest of the page then, faggot.
>>548217563should work like runeyscape. you gotta feed your weapons orbs. 1 divvy per 5000 skill uses
>>548217202I agree, both systems suck. Loot should be meaningful and able to be earned solo. Trading is a bandaid fix to a systemic problem.
>>548217679ok
>>548217909why call the tab splinters
>>548217563This is a based pattern idea. Someone should hire this man.
>>548217563Based, call it the Ethereal update, but don't add anything like a Zod rune to the game so you have to constantly get new gear.
>>548218036I didn't, that was the default name since it also holds splinters of various kinds
>>548218069The game should also have waifus and when you attempt to quit they cry and beg you to stay, saying they'll stop existing if you leave. Then to act on their word there's a 1:100 chance they actually get deleted from your game
>>548218515Man I always hated these kind of guilt trip things. I remember wow doing it having a crying orc face when you unsubbed. Bastards made me feel so bad.
why do we have a namefag from the reddit global spamming every thread?
>>548218872all globals are reddit
>>548218872We've always had at least one attention seeker. Before launch it was some other fag I can't remember. Wonder what happened to him anyways.
>>548219112Jon made him take the rope
>>548217391Breach did have scarabs before, the current version of it is a reworked oneBut yeah the fundamental concept of the mechanic is good, there's just nothing in the game currently to let you scale its difficulty. So the pacing is super awkward>early game there aren't enough enemies to stabilize before late acts and depending on your build it's hard to defend ailith>sweet spot in early mapping where you get good exp and getting a few chaos or a 6L from wombgifts can be really nice>uncomfortable in red maps where you spend a couple minutes sitting around or pathing through the fortress maze for rewards that probably weren't worth the time>completely worthless in deep endgame, just ignore the whole league mechanicIf you could make the waves much faster or give it some kind of endless survival mode it might be more fun but you can't. Also this all comes at the cost of an existing league mechanic, maybe not an incredibly strong one but it was good enough that they felt comfortable copypasting it into 2 from the very start. So for a lot of people it feels like a net loss of content and as much as I like foulborns/grafts I miss old Breach too
>>548219112Either Josh and FedExile.
>>548219402>FedExileThat was the one, man he could be annoying as hell sometimes.
>>548219402or*Holy retard. I need to workout and get my blood flowing.
>>548217403softcucks play for cookie clicker
>>548217403>the majority played on HC
>>548219616True exiles never stopped playing HC, it's the only place the game truly comes alive.
>>548219616>outing yourself as a newfag
>>548219793weird larp
>>548219402im grateful for their name / tripfagging, i just filter them.
>>548219616It's true, and as BFR got more B and more R and kept creeping up the death factor and checklist of immunities required to play the game the more people played normal.
>>548220262No. HC is way safer now than in the days of reflect rares and predictive. Insta-deaths have always been part of it.
>>548217563>item sinkCan we get hardcore except you only lose your gear on death and don't have to level through the campaign again? It would be the best of both worlds.
I haven't played poe 2 yet, going to try it first time this new patch. How viable is HC? I enjoy it but really hate unfair bullshit that you can't avoid. Is it even possible to beat the campaign without dying if you are careful?
>>548220971Yes, poe 2 is much better for hc, although you need to be extra careful in the trial of chaos, particularly because of a tornado bird
to whoevers still playing, please keep playing
d2 is such a shit game
>>548221292yet it has more loyal fanbase than poo1 with its divine per hour trannies
>>548220971I wouldn't start HCIt's a lot more "fair" than 1's HC because you're less likely to be raped out of the blue in maps, but if you've never played it it's very likely you're gonna rip to several different bosses in acts. They're a lot more involved and dangerous than most of 1's and several have attacks that can oneshot you if you don't know how to play around them.
>it has more loyal fanbase
>>548221292this, but Po0 2
>>548221462that's not even true and isn't a good thing regardless
>>548221609people wouldn't have played it otherwise
>Project Diablo 2 is a mod for and by passionate Diablo 2 fans, aiming to improve on the game as if development never ceasedThen why do I still see charms in people's inventory?
>>548219387That all makes sense to me, I'm in t16s and I either don't get wombgifts enough or just don't go into fortresses because it's a long trip for oftentimes literally nothing. Growing Wombgifts are also the biggest cockblock since, despite grafts being able to be awesome, they just fill out space due to not being very good and having to trade 5:1 for a random one (sometimes just another growing) sucks. I remember old breachstones a bit, I think I even still have some on my old standard cyclone slayer.

>>548221816D2 died in LoD when runewords were made good.>ENIGMA GOOD, OK
>>548221673they played it because there were far fewer games back then. nobody would have made all these wildly divergent interpretations of the genre if the base game was any good. all the worst things about poop1 and poop2 have been inherited from some bald fat retard's obsession with copying it

>>548222769the league is over lil gup why are you still playing?
>>548222936The league never started. 3.27 wasn't real.
>>548208517you sir are a fucking retard. come back after you have done 5000 trades and tell me async wasnt the best idea they have had in 14 years. friction is aids. i want my items and i want them now. i dont want to trade 4 times unsuccessfully for someone who hasnt loaded in or looking for my items in tabs or having the person go oops nvm after leaving my map. i have chat to interact and can party with ppl. i dont need some retarded chink nigger in my hideout to ask if he can pay me less than asking price. fuck you. fuck your soul.

>>548223791it was a good league, poe2 just happens to be the better game. poe1 players are in denial over this fact, so they will continue to rage over nonissues in poe1.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tfsWnnhdQ20hold on thats not a mathil build
>>548223791It's impressive to come up with a league so dogshit it rivals Necropolis(incredibly annoying) and Kalandra (historic hidden loot multipliers)
These are not great numbers
>>548224337necro was bad because shitters couldn't make it into t17s. kalandra was bad because empy and his group ran 1 map and then said loot was nerfed over 90%.
>>548224559Kalandra lakes also insta deleted everyone since the mobs were really strong. Shitters could never make it past tiler 2 to the increased loot drops and shat their TS 3k hp diapers.
>>548224337It's sad that PoE players are so loyal that 190k people on Steam alone still showed up to play after Jon tried to drown us in a tub for 10 months and then they still give us half-hearted garbage covered in 2's shit.

>>548224716What other options do we have instead of poe1?
>>548225587many poe1 mazies are switching to torchlight as their main game if poe1 eos happens
>>548225587Beastieball.
>>548225680How many is this "many" exactly?
>>548225902idk, around 20k or whatever numbers that phrecia event had past week 1
>>548226030You saw 20,000 people say that?
>>548225680I'll just continue to shitpost until PoE 2 is PoE 1.5 instead. We're already almost there. You guys have already caved on bloat being bad and we have boots with 50% plus MS and a chiken that gives another 15%.
I could be the face of poe 2
>>548226118nope, its the most logical conclusion, the rest of poe1 playerbase is gonna switch to poe 2 but not them
>>548226243As long as you're hideous and have mystery meat genes, you have a shot. I believe in you, anon.
>>548226259I wouldve said Last Epoch.
>>548224559Necro was bad because league mechanic was some schitzo craft tranny bullshit, unasable without multiple dump tabs Harvest and crucible also had dogshit retention, because people do not like craft tranny leagues
>>548223138hmmm nyo
>>548226259>that punctuation paired with retarded claims backed by absolutely nothingI know who you are.
>>548226438Craftchad leagues do poorly because retarded proles cannot conceive of the most basic entries into making items. Even the tree is too complicated for retards.>GRRRR I DIDN'T GET ARMOUR>why would I click less like for int and dex requirement nodesI like it that way though, more muns for the craft chad who can read and reason above a 5th grade level.
>>548226512am i supposed to be afraid of you? if you don't believe me that's fine
Remember that one time PoE 2 players quit in mass to play Last Epoch. That was pretty funny.
>>548226438I actually wished they went harder on the "factorio" aspect of harvest but they sort of didn't try and gave up with it entirely when it became core.
No Druid, no interest.
For Alva gold strategies, what do you do with the temples? Are they just there for gold explosions? I just want to kill stuff instead of fiddling with temple rooms and shit.
>>548225902retarded jeet
>>548227763you can get more gold with a gold flask. temples aren't worth it until endleague when locus goes for 2d
>>548227763If they hit t3 corrupt or gem they sell fast. If they don't, run 1 for omnitect chally and then dump tab.
>>548228065>>548228292Ok, so temples themselves are not worth it, good. And then if I add in a gold flask, I'll get more gold while doing it (which is nice because I'm a pathfinder with a lot of flask effect). I guess I'll do this for a bit, thanks!
>>548227763any alva strat that isn't selling temples is just in and out, you can build the temple if you want but it's probably a waste of time. imo the best roi gold farm is the ghosted harbingers in 8 mod maps, 50-60k gold a map and they are fast.
>>548224156I've got a gift for your womb baby.
>>548228853>ghosted harbingerswhat? you got a video link?
>>548228956https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mx8GdjDtqTYbasically you use the tormented spirit scarabs to spawn a fuck ton of ghosts(uniques) when you kill harby rares, the ghosts are juiced by titanic scarabs so they drop a ton of gold.
>>548225680torchlight isnt really a main game, its designed to be played for as long as it takes you beat ss20 / 21 and then wait for the next league
>>548226243>a face like a tub full of shityou'd be a star
>>548228853>>548229198>ghosted harbingers in 8 mod maps, 50-60k gold a map and they are fastYeah, that looks neat but maybe too scary for me as I'm playing HC. Might look into it later in the league, thanks!

the 2fag meltdown over bowsissies mogging every other build was greathope it happens again in 0.4

>>548231648thats differentthey arent the same
is Lycia something I can buy a carry forI want the bloodline but I can't be assed doing Sanctum
>>548229198kinda interesting actually. i dont care about gold but im going to try that for unique farming
is it worth saving the items that have rune sockets and quality to salvage them or does the end game drop the items so much that salvaging them is a waste of time? poe2
>>548232242>2rists complain over the state of endgame meta builds>1fags complain over not being able to sell 1c boots they found in white maps 3 weeks into the league

>>548221816There is a dedicated charm area of your inventory (which is bigger).
>>548222076It's actually incredible how much of early PoE1 is just stolen from D2. Like 80-90% of the skills, spells, monster mods, item affixes, etc are just taken from D2. The only reason something like MF or Light Radius exist is purely because it was in D2. All of the skills they added early on are just D2 skills and then later on slightly edited D2 skills.Obviously 10+ years on PoE1 now has a ton of original content. I am just talking about how much of the foundation is ripped shamelessly from D2.>inb4 newfag 12 year oldI actually am 30 and played D2 a lot as a kid but because I was an actual kid (literally 6-7 years old) I didn't understand the game well enough to get past normal difficulty or do much end game farming or see many unique items. I replayed D2 recently and have been watching some challenge runs on youtube and I just was constantly astounded at like "Oh, this is in PoE. That is in PoE. That is PoE."
>>548232441You salvage them during the campaign and early in maps until you have enough exalts to just buy them later.
>Last Epoch is adding DLC classes
>>548234553the passive tree is just the sphere grid from final fantasy x
>>548234553the skill energy shield in diablo 2 is mind over matter. 2 for 1 there.
>>548234916Paid classes is the ultimate scummy move. But they aren't the first to do it, blizzard got away with that shit with the d3 necro. I never played it on principle but that fucker was almost always overpowered. It's a shame because I've always been rooting for LE and hoped it would be a decent contender one day. Seems like that is unlikely to happen now.
aaurrrrh
>>548234929only if it was made entirely of jewel sockets
>>548235529It is clear this move was forced by the company who bought them out, but the LE devs themselves agreed to that. I sincerely doubt the buyout was necessary for the company's longevity.If you wanted my schizo take the founders are probably burnt out from the game's long development and release and wanna cash out. They live entirely in PoE's shadow and their only times of success was during especially tumultuous times in the PoE world. With PoE1 and 2 releasing multiple leagues a year there is no room for LE anymore. It could serve as a game to play while you wait for the next PoE league. Now they're supposed to be every 2 months. They can't keep up with that.
>>548235529I fail to see how it's scummy to have a paid class while having a free expansion when the "golden age" of PC gaming would have a paid expansion that included classesIf you accounted for inflation, it would even be a great deal cheaper now than back thenIncredible, brown, thirdie-like entitlement
>>548234929FFX IS the best final fantasy game, so that's a positive statement.
>>548236046Don't remember asking the trans community for their opinion but thanks for sharing it anyway.
>>548236132it's a positive statement for the developers of FFX, true
>>548236046shalom.
>>548236132Story and characters aside, X-2, XIII-2, and LR were all more FUN than X at least.
>>548236159Explain how it is scummy to charge for a new class that was never promised at any point while still committing to the game being a live service with free updates. Do you really think the ~$30 you spent on the game entitles you to every bit of content they work on for eternity? They work on new cosmetics too and charge for those, why is that being treated differently than if they decide to add an entirely new class and charge for access to it?You don't have any rational answer for this, so you'll just shit your diaper in response.
>>548236046old pc game.>box price>year later buy an expansionlast epoch>box price>please buy mtx slop to support game>we are broke even though we don't have an office or any overhead>we sold the company for 90million dollars>sorry we are delaying the season again>oh also please buy mtx to help support hollys bottom surgery>no, we haven't even finished the base game you paid for years ago, we are busy making the expansion and paid dlc>don't forget to buy more mtx
call me a retard butwhere in TFT does it explain how most of these services work? 5ways, rotas, etc, am i expected to know how all of this shit works already?
>>548236571You just wouldn't get it noseberg. Don't worry you'll pick up the pieces and find some other sucker to sell them to before cashing out.
>>548236618>we sold the company for 90million dollarsYour entire post is slop but I'm highlighting this because Krafton is recently notorious for acquiring the Subnautica dev and scheming to avoid having to pay a very large bonus.Anyone with a 3 digit IQ would be able to understand that the 90mil sale figure is the same scam play.>>548236804You're definitely brown
>>548236571microtransactions that change the appearance of your character isn't the same as selling a new class, with new stats, new abilities, new skills. it's effectively pay to win, and considering there is already a box price on the unfinished and poorly managed game, it's a shit deal that most people aren't going to opt in for.it really isn't hard to understand why people are annoyed or pissed at the news.
>>548236892ehg sold 100% of the company/game to a notoriously shitty company that is now pay walling new content, here is why that is actually a good thing! really strong argument.
>>548236046>>548236571>>548236892Didn't know Holly lurked here but I guess xhe really needs a promotion to get that full facial reconstruction surgery.
>>548236649There isn't exactly a lot of new fags to the game anonThe game hardly explains itself, let alone third party services
oh boy an unironic sleepoch shill your game is shit and dead, tranny redditor.kill yourself
>>548236921I'm talking about the entitlement to the content that they produce being free. They committed to providing free updates and the game being a live service, which they have done. The expansion they're going to release will also be free.They obviously need some monetization strategy to fund the live service and the cosmetic microtransactions were supposed to be that but it obviously hasn't worked. Why is it exactly a big deal that they decided they would work on a new class, that was never promised for free, so they can make money to keep the game running?As for a new class being pay to win, that is so patently absurd it's not worth it.As I suspected, no arguments.
>>548237104You're trying to paint them as greedy but it's just obviously (to a person with at least average IQ) not true. Ironic that you just post lies and not arguments and then project that onto me.

>>548217909Post your currency. I refuse to believe you're just idling and waiting for handouts from thread.
>>548237298one of the first things people brought up when they announced the paid class was diablo 3 and 4. both games released new classes behind a paywall, those new classes were WAY stronger than every other class to incentivize people to buy them.and that is obviously going to happen with last epoch, because as you just pointed out.. the company that OWNS 100% of last epoch and decides how the game is monetized and balanced, is fucking awful.that is your argument btw.>krafton are a scam company, people should give them money.
>>548237515>themwho the fuck is them? your reddit pals don't own last epoch, they sold the company and game to krafton. krafton own 100% of the company and game. judd and holly don't get a say in what happens to the game, they are just employees, they work for krafton.
>>548237783he won't
>>548226660Its called PATH of EXILE not CRAFT of HIDEOUT ok?
i have two currency tabs
>>548237902You can do what you like with your money, other people can do what they like. I just objected to it being called 'scummy' because it isn't.No one has even seen the class to know whether it will be stronger/weaker/about the same and regardless of that people will want to buy it to play it if it seems fun. Paying money for more fun is pretty normal with videogames but not apparently when you're functionally retarded. As for the pay to win argument, it's pathetic to fixate on that in games where there is literally RMT cartels selling power to players with money. No paid class will ever compare to the winning you can do if you fork out for RMT and it's possible in Last Epoch and especially PoE where people prefer to ignore the reality.By the way, we're in a general for a game whose developer literally sold to a scummy megacorp who promptly rejigged their game to exploit a Chinese market with literal pay to win options and for whom 2 out of 3 founders literally took the moneybags and left the company. Astonishingly tonedeaf.

what's an absolute braindead ssf build that can do the hardest bosses in the game with minimal gearing
>>548239258in which game
>>548239289poo1but don't let that stop you from suggesting a build for poo2 too
>>548239258earthshatter berserker
>>548238393Yes I will>>548237783I've been grinding Einhar (1c per beast mostly), Harvest (Yellow juice spec), and otherwise just playing Searing Exarch on maps since I can only really do t16 and most t16.5. I'm 1 (Uber Elder) encounter from The Feared and 1 (Theatre of Lies) encounter from The Remembered and then I'm done with all Maven Invites as well.
>>548239239Apparently GGG are the same thing as Tencent. One and the same. Diaper shitting, as expected.
>>548239385You cannot kill ubers with 'minimal' gearing.Especially on ssf where you cant just buy fragments and must kill t17 bosses for the drops.
>make pob>play awesome campaign again as occultist>get to 66 and slot my CoC set up with the automatic power charge generation>notice my cooldown aint resetting
>>548229198Just tried this out in Standard (has a fucked up mutt version of the Atlas tree to support old breach) and got 77k (with 0 rarity) doing the deli+beyond version in City Square.I can understand why you want to do this on Glacier to get the most uniques possible for more gold.
>>548239473ggg sold tencent under condition, they weren't desperate for a payout like ehg. it's why poe didn't go to shit the second they sold.what was the first thing ehg did when they sold the company?>we are going to start selling dlc content.and honestly, it probably wouldn't be as bad as it is if ehg could actually make content for the game in a timely manner. 5 years in ea, released unfinished, endless delays for their seasons, subpar content when it finally ships, low quality mtx, more season delays, now they want to start selling dlc. really not a good look.
>>548240119I agree with this (it might surprise you). They are clearly desperate and probably are circling the drain. But they don't deserve to be called scummy, they are doing something that is utterly normal in the vast majority of the gaming world. Adding new classes to the game is not something they ever promised and they need more revenue for the game to be profitable/sustainable. I can't think of a better alternative that wouldn't simply be giving up and going EOS.This third-worldist mindset that insists that everything needs to be free is totally cancerous and will lead to more exploitative games, not less.

>>548240540ehg are a poorly managed company filled with lazy wfh redditors, their product isn't worth the price. charging more and more for a mediocre and still unfinished game that is plagued by delays isn't going to solve their problems, and it sure as fuck isn't going to bring new players to the game. serious, why would a new player pay a boxprice + paid dlc + the promise of more paid dlc in the future? doesn't seem like many of the existing players will pay, the game just isn't worth it.
>>548242705>serious, why would a new player pay a boxprice + paid dlc + the promise of more paid dlc in the future?Firstly, new players won't have to pay for any DLC, if they're interested in the game they can pay the box price just the same as everyone else has and get their money's worth easily in terms of how many hours you can put into the game.Secondly, there probably won't be many new players now that lazy, unemployed Redditors have shit their diapers so violently over something that is pretty ordinary and usual. I don't think they'll recover which is a shame because the game has some good ideas and is pretty good (for an ARPG).
>only meaningful upgrade left for my build is an 80d+ helmet and progenesisi've never felt this before
>>548243183Ok Dan
>>548243183>which is a shame because the game has some good ideas and is pretty goodI agree that if they can't move mtx they got to do something to stay afloat. But come on now. Pretty good game.I think the person saying you were a ehg employee might be onto something.

What about 'have to'?>>548243449It does have some good ideas, Circle of Fortune faction is great for people who hate trading. The legendary crafting that lets you randomly fuse stats from exalted items onto uniques is a cool lategame crafting mechanic that makes otherwise underpowered but build enabling uniques viable. Having a skill tree for each individual skill is pretty cool. Lots of ideas in Last Epoch are good. I'm sorry you're too emotionally fragile to deal with it.
we out here stacking dicks
>>548244128I'll give you credit, Circle of Fortune was a good idea. Skill trees are nonsense. Every skill I tried more or less was just change damage type, change to dot or to on hit. Maybe change to ranged. None of it was interesting beyond the first playthrough. >I'm sorry you're too emotionally fragile to deal with it.Overhyped, 0 endgame game man. Nothing to do with emotional fragility to say a bad game is bad.
>>548244328It's not a bad game. No reasonable person would say that. It might be average but it's definitely not bad.
>>548244128>Are you clinically retarded?are you? the paradox classes are releasing alongside(next to) the expansion as paid(not free) DLCpoe releases paid mtx supporter packs alongside free expansions, are supporter packs free?

paid dlc are a light pattern
>>548245282Retardsis, I'm telling you that new players don't have to buy it. They literally do not have to buy it. Nowhere did I ever insinuate that the DLC is not free.
>>548245409lmao
>>548245110the writing style seems very trannylike
>>548245409>They literally do not have to buy it.yeah, i wouldn't worry about anyone buying it.
>>548245245We've already established that blizzard have been scumbags for a long time.
>>548245409*free rather that "not free">>548245530Is a new class a "content patch"? The only other ARPG that is giving new classes for free are the ones that are free to play and in early access adding the ones that they've promised to. Absolutely insane, poor, thirdie entitlement.
>>548245713
>>548245741Blizzard was at the top of their game when D2 LoD released. There was nothing scummy about a massive expansion adding two new classes. This board says some really dumb shit sometimes.
You will never be a woman, raxx will be laughing behind your back during the next interview just like before. There is a reason you weren't invited to the company meet up. https://vocaroo.com/1kXT4PVq3Dhl

>base game costs money>each extra class costs money>if you buy the game after the expansion releases it costs money too>also has supporter packsdamn these guys must be in dire need of money
>>548245852Selling an expansion with new classes isn't the same thing as paid classes tranny. Dilate and join the 41 percent of your friends.
>>548245956Raxx is a faggot, too, and I've seen him host pink-haired twinks with tranny flags in the background. He's a retard, too, who cries about everything and acts very entitled because he died in a videogame.
Yep that confirms it's holly, damn he must have gotten a real bad deal with the buyout. Makes sense, asians aren't as willing to put up with those freaks.
>>548246068Retard, I didn't say anything about LE. I'm just stating a fact. I don't even care enough to comment on the game.
holy shit i had like 30 posts filtered
>>548246019Paid cosmetics are also "content" and "downloadable". There is still a commitment to providing content patches for free including something they are calling an expansion rather than a season.You are absolutely a scumbag to insist that they can only add a new class to the game if they provide it for free because you paid the comparatively low box price years ago. Prove to me right now you aren't a jeet.
>>548246320These same people will defend GGG charging 30 bucks to beta test their unfinished product and say nothing over them charging 60 bucks plus for an armor set.
I have 4 hrs in LE
>>548246320i hope you are getting paid for this lol>>548246604how much do classes cost in poe? >well poe 2 is in a paid early access, so it's not even free yet!!!!!i gave a key to my friend for free, how much will he have to pay for the new druid DLC?
https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Legacy_leaguethis sounds pretty fun
>>548246809They have always said PoE 2 would have the original 6 classes with 18 new ascendancies. They adding the classes that aren't in the game yet because they needed to sell it prematurely is not the same as adding a new, unplanned class years after the game has left early access.
>>548246809>I gave a key to my friend for freeYou got a spare key because you whaled hard enough. GGG didn't give you a free key.
>>548246963*Them adding
>>548246928This is what I expect the last PoE League to be like. A shit ton of MTX on discount that they can't reasonably fit into PoE 2 (more clown suits as an example.)And leaguestones with scarabs to hyper customize and juice maps, to make it as fun and move as much MTX before we get standard-forever.But I enjoyed Legacy league a lot of people bitched about it oddly enough.
>>548246285Someone let the pochtranny out of his cage.
>>548246963Honestly who gives a shit? If you like an ARPG and spend hundreds of hours playing it, why not pay a few bucks to support the devs? I have no qualms paying for new acts and classes in Grim Dawn. Shan't be doing that for a shit game owned by Koreans like LE though.
>>548246928I quit that one pretty early because, IIRC, you had to fuck with legacy stones every single zone. Now, if they removed that part, it could be cool to revisit.
>>548247193If you just admit to being brown and poor, the straight, white male (ME) will stop bullying you for being a faggot.
PoE isn't going anywhere. Companies would kill for a game that barely needs any support and has 180k people showing up every four months to spend money and play. GGG would be retarded to piss that away and Tencent would be furious with them.
Put the programming socks back on holly, I like you better that way.
>>548247386retard
>>548247386they are pissing it away at full blast
>>548247442Compelling argument>>548247490I don't disagree.
>>548246963true, and ggg are so based they tossed in an extra ascendancy for the witch in 0.3 without even telling anyone.
>>548247386you think 180k are spending money? you think it's actually 180k "people"? prior to PoE2 they were making about 80mil NZ buckaroos in REVENUE (not profit) a year
>Look at minion builds on poe.ninja for inspiration on interesting things to try>Its all just spirit reservation and + to minion levelsPlease god no someone suggest a more interesting way to scale minions than this it can't possibly be this bad
>>548246604developing the base game of poe 2 in leagues is one of my main criticisms of the game actually
>>548247556who funded poe2?
>>548247545Don't forget about the totally awesome and amazing Bloodline Ascendancies, my fellow GGjeet!>>548247580it's that bad, anon. I'm sorry. You're only other option is playing Lich and scaling Unholy Might with mana and it's an annoying playstyle since you're always mana flask spamming.
>>548247127>that they can't reasonably fit into PoE 2 (more clown suits as an example.)Motherfucker if I don't get my clownsuits in poe2 I'm going to rotisserie jonathanEdgy jesters are perfect for literally any shadow build
POOWUNTROONIES...
How many people are playing poch right now?
>>548247556very schizo-coded post. People loved the league during the first weekend and according to this general, that's when all the money is spent.
>>548247716the financials are public bro, everything I just said to you is factualwhen you took expenses out, their profits were around 20mil (nzd) per year (prior to PoE2)it just isn't going to be a massive hit to drop PoE eventually given that pretty much all of the paying customers will just be spending that money on PoE2 instead of PoE
brehs i started a simu wave and could hear my fans spinning up
>>548247749sorry i forgot this was the /run damage control for last epoch general/
>>548247930
>>548247749>You're only other option is playing Lich and scaling Unholy MightHm>% increased Magnitude of Unholy Might BuffsBuffS? Unholy might adds extra as chaos instead of conversion like it does in poe1, does this line imply multiple sources of unholy might stack?That sounds like it might be fun. Rupture the soul seems neat for clear too since all but like two of the specters are absolute shite at clearing.
>>548248036I'm laughing at LE and poor, stupid and entitled people. It's pretty fun to hedge your bets.
>>548246604>GGG charging 30 bucks to beta test their unfinished productAre LE's acts finished yet
>>548248036I feel bad for them desu, they spent years and couldn't come up with a successful product and are now under the thumb of an even more incompetent ruthless dictator who is forcing them to run their game into the ground to squeeze the last bit of blood out of the stone.
poe2 has way less bugs than sleepoch
You know this league was done for when they did the race event on the second week post launch. Like, what the fuck. It's like they WANTED it to fail
What will I think? Will I like it?
>>548248140Nope and never will be, not that they had any story to begin with. It's dime store chrono trigger mixed with the most generic godslop ever. Even 4chan could have come up with a more compelling plot.
steelmage is playing d2
>>548248262You can tell they wanted it to fail because they put a 24 wave elreon mission in it and decided it was good enough.
Behold, the face of success. That paid class is going to double these numbers at least, maybe even triple.
>poe 1 was sabotaged by its own devsJonathan really did a number on the sanity of poe 1 cuckies
>>548247930>given that pretty much all of the paying customers will just be spending that money on PoE2 instead of PoElmfao
>>548248285first character is pretty fun but the endgame is bland.rerolling your second character will probably put you to sleep.
>>548248389>elreon missionHOLY SHIT! That's why I felt like I've played this shit before early on in the league.I don't miss the forsaken master missions.
>>548248472Those are good numbers for a niche genre though.
niGGGers
>>548248505ah, yes, just ignore them bold-face lying about 2 not affecting PoE's development or Jonathan pretending to be sad while saying that he didn't know pulling all the devs off of PoE would lead to such a big delay.
fucking minotiries bouighjt my maps out from under me
ynr poo2ers thinking they'd break a milly with the free weekend
>thinking of play the new pd2 season>no async tradeyeah, it's over for me... i can't play any arpg that doesn't have async trade nowfuck whispering people and dealing with afksguess i have nothing to play until 0.4
>>548248262There was also the 'what we're working on' news post that also told use changes were coming(they didn't) and to wait for 3.28 for anything big. It's clear they just sharted it out and switched to PoE2 hype.
Oh no...theyve starting half-assing poo1 support in favor of poe2...Im so sad...
>>548248505they certainly did not want it to succeedeither jonathan told the developers to make it as shit and unfun as possible or allotted so little budget that this was the best they could come up with. it doesnt matter in the end
>>548248985i can think of at least 6-7 leagues where people just ignored the league mechanic after a few days and played for the fresh economy.
>>548248985It's the latter, they just care about pushing 0.4 out the door since December usually has higher playcounts. We got a league using nothing but rehashed assets from PoE 2 barring a few skills like Kinetic Rain and Somatic Shell. This was a very low effort league compared to Mercs.>>548249185I did that in TOTA, but this endgame is growing old pretty fast and needs a shakeup. It's been almost four years of Eater/Exarch.
>>548247930I don't know about this. poeg is a drop in the bucket population wise compared to the PoE 2 and PoE subreddits. It is still common to find people talking about doing campaigns and fucking off from PoE 2. Its also not uncommon to see people talk about not wanting to shell out money on supporter packs when they paid for early access.
>>548248985the truth is poe 1 cannot succeed, not only it fails to attract new players but it also fails to keep its old players because how dated the game is jonathan made the right call
>>548249185This mechanic is pretty invasive. The game is more fun in standard that in the league.
>>548249436Meanwhile in reality, Settlers was the most popular league in the game's history. I don't know why you continue to try to spin this.
>>548249526numberwise yesbut fundamentally it didnt change anything and it is also remembered as one of the worst leagues
>>548249708retard
>>548249708lol what the fuck are you talking about retard
Is there a reason nobody uses Vaal RF? It's the same as the normal one most of the time and you can turn the big one on if you need it
Surely, the first league of 2026 won't suck.
>>548249526settlers was the last poe1 league before the poe2 early access launched, it was obviously going to draw a big crowd.
>>548249708>and it is also remembered as one of the worst leaguesby fucking whosettlers was a great league
>>548249852It's used in spell builds that have really good recovery since it gives more spell damage as a buff.>>548249917https://steamdb.info/app/238960/charts/#maxthis shows years of steady growth.
>>548250090Oh wait, nevermind, it's spell buff actually sucks compared to regular RF. My bad.
>>548249864It will, because the game sucks. They can make the best league of all time, and the end result will be the same. They desperately need to fix POE1 once and for all, and not just simply patch a few nerfs here and there. The game has been in a dreadful state since 3.15, and the numbers show it. They didn't make a single attempt to remedy these problems since
>>548250419>They desperately need to fix POE1 once and for allThat's not happening, you can't re alive a zombie. You need to move on in the stages of grief acceptance. It's getting sad at this point.
>>548250419the numbers show that the game had more players after 3.15
>>548250090Yeah but Vaal skills give you the original skill too so you can just drop it into a normal RF build, and I'm pretty sure you can have it running along with your normal RF since it's a different type of spell with a set duration
>just keep lying until everyone is too tired of it to correct your bullshit and then your false narrative wins outI hate the future.
>>548250642The general has been like this for months after 0.2 happened. Poo2'ers feel threatened by every other ARPG (including the one that allowed their game to even exist) for whatever reason.
>>548249436i love this meme
GGG should make obscenely broken mobs that deal a billion damage and are very tanky but drop a bunch of items while they also buff all skills in the game. It's the only way to prove that PoE 1 is already dead because even if they did this, the game still would have sub 40% retention.
>>548250889I don't think you understand what a dead game is.
How can people consider Settlers a great league but now want Kingsmarch gone and it is the definition of a Dark Pattern?
>>548250642>>just keep lying until everyone is too tired of it to correct your bullshit and then your false narrative wins out>I hate the future.For what it is worth this shit is mostly here. Other social medias might have some dooming here and there but given people can't samefag and pretend otherwise, its easier to "fact check" nonsense it doesn't hold up. People come here and doomtranny because it is easier then anywhere else. The likely truth is faggots who spend hours a day on this board pissing in the wind about either game likely barely play either game. wowg had the same shit going on it when I played it, people would doom nonstop and when they posted any identifying information you'd find out they bought carries and barely played. Shit is weird and made me realize how normal I actually am by not engaging in it.
>>54825094160k was a dead game in February when poe2 was thereWhat changed?
>>548250812>We still want to bring in new players, but I would say POE 1 now, it's more important to us to keep the the POE1 player base, the fans of the game, the long-term players, the people who love POE 1 happy, as opposed to going, we need more new players, new players, new, we bring people in, bring people in.
>>548250985Because it was novel, and people hadn't figured out how to exploit it
>>548249185breach is pretty hard to ignore sadlynot just because of the walls, in ssf its one of the best ways to get uniques. of my ssf playing friends, 2 got a mageblood from the tree, 1 from a valdos and 1 from a key. the latter 2 probably from kingsmarch kek.
>>548250985Affliction which had some of the best retention and is overwhelmingly remembered as a good league has retards on here saying it sucked because you had to engage in wildwoods aspect to benefit. The 30 of us on this board regularly have little in common with the people they design the game for.
>>548250995What? Nobody thought PoE 2 was a dead game. You take people shitposting and purposely riling you up too seriously. You probably annoyed people constantly bragging about 2's numbers to the point that they just wanted to antagonize you and it worked.
>>548248285>>548248545Best ARPG at the moment. Way better than Poe but current expansion is in dev hell because the devs are too busy making town builders.
>>548251348>Nobody thought PoE 2 was a dead game.So it's an "only pretending to be retarded" situation?
>>548250986what fascinates me is how defensive those posters get when you criticize poe2. you would think that its just some meaningless trolling and ragebaiting but you can feel their blood boiling through the screen when you dare to talk ill about poe2. like that druid webm always triggers a series of extremely angry doomposts directed at poe1. i cant comprehend what motivates them
>>548251519>that druid webmI'm going home and none of you can stop me
>>548251505there have only been 2 leagues, both of them did extremely well. when was it dead?
>>548251491According to Zantai, they keep feature-creeping the expansion and Crate only has like 25 employees or so. It's adding a whole new difficulty and a system to turn blues into new items so it sounds like it will be worth the wait. It is still the White man's ARPG after all.>>548251505I remember the anon who would post 2's steam charts every night around this time and you would get angry about it. I miss him.
>>548251519You're one of the people he's posting about.
>>548251676Isn't that just this guy >>548247816
Zaccie is in the thread with us
>>548251701NTA, but I barely see any dooming about PoE 2 and people barely even talk about it despite a new league being 2 weeks away. I just see 2 players wishing death on PoE and having this weird, seething and over-the-top vitriol for the game.>>548251785I'm pretty sure that's a schizo hurt by him getting his revenge.
>>548251928He just alternates games between leagues
>>548251928Are you the 17 guy who was ranting about schizos in yesterdays general?
>>548251928young buck clearly don't understand how we do things 'r'ound 'ese parts
>>548250985because it was fine for one leaguenow you're forced to interact with it every league, or you lose out on hundreds of free divines
>>548252194Wouldn't this also be the case for mechanics like Affliction? Imagine if a scarab gave you access to the wildwoods. People would feel peeved that they HAD to do affliction on top of whatever else they wanted to farm or they would be missing out on loot.
>>548252426You're killing monsters and engaging with the game still and Affliction makes mobs way tankier. It's not the same.
>>548251701My comment was more in agreeance that people doomsissy endlessly trying to create a narrative about either game and just wait on people to get tired of responding, and it's just retarded. Currently that is more aimed at the poowundedge'ers because they are the ones doomtranny'ing about poe 1. After the new poe 2 league drops I'll feel the same about people doomtranny'ing PoE2. It's fucking retarded that people can't just enjoy the games and constantly create these bullshit narratives that get disproven and then just reposted later on. PoE league retention is bad, yeah we all get it. PoE 2 league retentions haven't been exceptional either. .2 had 30% in under 26 days I think. A month after .3 dropped it was at 24%. Doesn't mean either game is dead, means they are likely dropping to many leagues and between both games and regular people are burning out quicker.Idk I think eventually I've just outgrown a lot of the bullshittery of this website.
>>548252426 not if you're a deliriumchad with a fat penis and no dependence on quant
>>548252426affliction is an actual mechanic and changes how you do maps so it wouldn't be as badkingsmarch is literally afk mobile game shit
>>548252503>>548252582if you were running maps, doing Kingsmarch is a complete non-issue. You just dump gold into it and that's it.
>>548252515It was fun banter for a little bit, but it's just annoying faggotry at this point and there is little substance behind anything being said. I think you could have more engaging conversations with chatGPT or Grok at this point.
>>548252426its not really the same because affliction juicing is actually playing the game instead of engaging with a certified norwood 7 male baldness pattern. but that basically is what delirium is, especially in poe2, and its not great design either. theres a reason they didnt add wildwood or sentinel atlas nodes or scarabs.
I can guarantee if Affliction was allowed to be on every map people would 100% bitch that they had to waste time looking for wisps to maximize loot. It's barely a real mechanic, the only reason people liked it was because they felt uber powerful for one league.
Tencent labeled Path of Exile 2 as one of their six "god games" that they consider to be big money makers for 2026
source? my ass.
>>548253224i don't think i believe that, poe 2 probably made them bank but there is no way they are generating that kind of money.
>>548253224>unzipsI've got a big money maker just for you, anon
>>548253131"make monster stronger to get more loot" is a quintessential arpg mechanic. its fine as long as its rewarding and doesnt take up a significant proportion of the spent in the map. you greatly underestimate how much effort endgame juicers will go through to get some loot. in phrecia people would open maps until they found a wildwood and 40 exiles in the map, which was a combined ~1/20 chance. or the bottled exile strategy where you spend way more time collecting the exiles than running them. nobody ever complained about that because it was worth it.redditors would complain though because their rf chieftain with campaign gear cant do it
>>548253429nigga it had like 300k on steamthat's not as rare as it used to be but it's still pretty fucking uncommon
>>548239430Are you alive? I am dropping the league and will give you the mageblood and my flask set if you still want it. Else, I will do a giveaway in 1488. Also, any of you want to play WWM and marry me?
>>548253224I can't find anything for 2025 but the Q4 2024 quarterly report had this
>>548253783Yeah I'm alive and absolutely do want them! I hope whatever you're on other than PoE is a lot of fun. I'll tab back in now
>>548253131>people would 100% bitch that they had to waste time looking for wisps to maximize loot.that was a complaint during the league>It's barely a real mechanicdoesn't matter, it beefed up mobs and heavily encouraged players to make their character stronger, which is why (most) people think fondly of the league.

When I find a way to make these things do damage you're going to see some serious shit

>>548254796>>548254860what a voidstone was :^)
>>548254848hroc player literally just gave them out in 1488
Path of Exile 2 is EXTREMELY popular on bilibili
>>548255195tripfag doesn't know how to use mageblood and thought hroc was stinky with his flasks
>>548254848>>548255245The Mageblood wasn't even the most valuable thing
>>548255245What did he not get? your leftmost 2 flasks are always on. just slap progen and rotgut there and you're fast and indestructible.
i'm disappointed
>>548253783DUDE I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH>go back to hideout>swap off my flasks except for health with the ones you gave me>put on the belt>suddenly 84% Fire/Cold/Lightning>fast as FUCK>the curse and stun thing mean i'm practically immune to thoseholy SHIT man this is AWESOME. I just gotta figure out my now-negative chaos resist and i'm GOLDEN. I even picked up a Stormshroud to make the shock avoidance into all-avoidance! no more chill, freeze, ignite, etc. (this was advice as i had never heard of the jewel before and was told that the shock avoidance was specifically for that)
i haven't played since 3.4 had to quit cause addiction this game still gud? or play poe2?
>>548255704play poe2 but honestly it did get way different since 3.4 with the introduction of the atlas tree
>>548255704you'll probably like 2 more, 1 has had a lot of shit added in your absence that you probably won't like
>>548255704play 2, 1 is big shit can hardly call it a game at this point
>>548255424>2 flask mbBro, that isn't even a real mb
>>548255645There is no excuse for you not doing T17 and all the pinnacle Uber bosses
are we all just pretending to be poo 2 doomies, wtf happened...
Is poe2 relatively easy to finish a league? I liked how casual d3 was when I played it inbetween leagues, a couple of days to have fun and have a semi complete build with satisfcation. Maybe not as casual as d3 is ok...POE always kept me wanting to reroll because the options were endless
>>548256243RIght now? Yeah, especially since they haven't put challenges into the game
>>548256147Well, assuming I don't die instantly anymore, that sounds fine to me! I just got through with The Feared, am 1 boss away from The Remembered, and now I wanna take on Uber Elder and see if I can solo it sometime soon. I definitely need to fix my Chaos Resist, without my belt I'm down to -17% lmao>>548255424It's apparently only magic and not unique flasks, i had no idea. I thought he was giving me a Progenises flask because it'd always work, but the moment it was clarified, I knew I didn't need it and bailed lmao>>548255919it's a 4 slot, don't worry!due to being maxed at 84% of my elemental resists, I went back and finally changed my Bandit choice for another skill point. i have my last few levels planned out, ending in an Attack Mastery inside of my Timeless Jewel that gives me +1 to enemies hit with non-vaal strikes.
>>548256425Bro, it says leftmost. you have to put the unique flask on the right, number 5. You are making me go insane. I am already starting to regret this
>>548256425i hope you didnt sell your mirror for that
>>548256640It says leftmost 4 magic utility.If you only have 4 magic utilities then they're all leftmost. Baka.
>>548256640oops nvm. You are using a lifeflask.
>>548256640>>548256765Yeah I'm still only at like 5k health so i use my 1 key for my life flask, don't worry! I had someone look it over to make sure I wasn't being retarded after putting them on
>>5482559191, he can just divine it if it's not corrupted2, even before the flasks mb still has good attribute bonuses and decent res3, even 2 flasks still gives you a retarded amount of options>>548256640That's not how mb works
>>548256643I didn't, it was given to me by a very generous anon. Mirror is still here and is likely coming with me to standard, unless I can get a REALLY good deal on an OSin.
>a fucking spreadsheetMAZED BEYOND BELIEF
>>548256640Even if he had progenesis in the first slot it would still work normallyIt only counts flasks that are both magic and utility, so life flasks and unique flasks aren't affected no matter what
>>548257043wut
>newfag figured out MB before the guy who gave it to himabsolutely fucking tragic
When people say "selfcast", what are they referring to? The way I hear it described it's like a full kind of build
>>548209229Breach lords were go to for boosting pre 5 way but other than that yes you're correct. Breach was good for adding exp to maps but abyss/legion did that better and gave better rewards.
>>548257252You cast the spell yourself rather than through a proxy like totems, or triggers like slinger, cws, coc, mjolnir, etc.
>>548257252it means you have to cast the spell yourself.
Spreadsheet game
>>548257252that they want to poop in their pants
JONATROON
>>548257395>>548257413>>548257428oh so you poop yourself instead of pooping on the enemy or letting mines/minions poop for you? that seems like it would be the default
>>548224209>mathil build>there's actually defenseOk so he stole it then.
>>548257474you poop yourself and then you eat your own shit.
>>548257474It's more like the difference between shitting out of your own butt vs shitting out of someone elses butt or shitting out of your own butt when you clap your hands or say "bazinga". Obviously you can shit way faster if you shit whenever you say bazinga or clap or have more butts (that aren't yours).Selfcast was inferior to triggers for a long time until support gems like archmage and to a lesser extent intensify and unleash were introduced.

How can these cunts throw up 8mods for 5c and they sell faster than I can click the button whereas if I throw up my own 8mods they won't sell ever unless they're 2c or less
>>548257998https://pobb.in/c6w14WrbrkeThere's the current setup. Dropped my old Watcher's Eye because I no longer need Purity of Elements, picked up one for about 200c that does Haste/Determination so I put both of those on (was gonna do Haste anyway), had to drop Flesh and Stone to not have only like 20 mana.

So is gauntlet not gonna happen? it would be kinda weird if they dropped a poo1 gauntlet after the start of a poo2 league
>>548259382it already happened retardhttps://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3881239
>>548259382ziz said there wasn't going to be a gauntlet during keepers.>>548259467thats not the gauntlet.

do I play MXF XSF or PD2 or PoE1?

I violently convulse whenever I hear the Kingsmarch music in maps
Why do some people pretend that PoE2 is a F2P game and get so defensive and aggressive when they hear that it is not? Just shut your mouth and suck truth up until the game actually will be free to play.Right now it's B2P for who even knows how long.
>>548263862what is b2p
I want to play more but the patch is poop and there's nothing interesting to play. I'd have sent it SSF but the only build that looks fun for a fresh start is Archmage and it needs a couple of uniques.
hell of a map
>>548263862GGG gives out lifetime buying keys.GGG gives out original PoE 1 beta supporter extra keys. GGG gives out keys for purchasing what might as well been the core pack for the year. GGG gives streamers untold numbers of keys.Tencent gives away untold numbers of keys. >Games b2p chuds.
>>548263862it's f2p with a paid early access, was there some confusion about this on reddit or something?

The PoE1 PoE2 situation is reminiscent of Fatshark with Vermintide 2 and Darktide where a company abandons a game full of soul with a dedicated community to chase the bag
>>548264706>nu-PoE 1>soul But you are right nonetheless, they did abandon a game full of soul and turned it into soulless slop when they've sold out to chinese
>>548264706FUCK i hate being reminded about darktide its the worst fucking game in existence they released it with only 10 maps where they reuse layouts in half of them. WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING. "we are going to release a new class every 3 months!!!" and now two years later they are getting their FIRST new class. holy shit fatshark should get firebombed i fucking hate them
>>548264706darktide is a good game, varlet

>>548260542RIP JohnathanRogersToilet
>>548265837The character was named George_Void_IIThe II is because George_Void the first got voided.
>>548265519isn't the thing MtG does now is collabs with everything under the sun? Imagine if PoE when down that direction?
>>548267114
>>548267114i think ggg are too chuddy for wizards of the coast.
>>548260542retarded mods probably though you were making a george floyd joke (void and floyd rhyme, and floyd was voided). you'd have to be schizophrenic like me or the average poo moderator to get it

>>548203078Does the hits can't be evaded mod apply to offhand skills like shield crush.
>>548269578yes
>>548257294If your strat involved killing as many monsters as possible for loot, breach was an invaluable part of that strat.
>>548269578Hits can't be evaded is local.Your hits can't be evaded is global.
>>548235529If you put any time into LE you would have known that it was NEVER going to be a contender.Its ridiculously shallow, very little build variety, items that are too specific (like they can literally only be used by a single class and usually only a single build for that class), and a boring end game. The "Crafting" system is so incredibly fucking basic that its a joke, and infinitely inferior to PoE's in most every way. The entire game feels janky as fuck to play; weird abilitiy hitboxes, weird terrain collision mechanics still not fixed (and never will be because the issue is with the framework of the game itself).It was fun for a hot minute but its genuinely so janky and shallow.Remember that they hadn't even fucking load tested their APIs properly on launch so that it became almost impossible to change maps/zones because they just couldn't handle the load.
When is PoE2 getting Metamorph league? I miss it so bad, guys...
>>548270362I'm a retard. I don't understand.
>>548271084Local mods apply to the item they're on.Global mods apply to your character.
>>548271075that's the league that killed hc forever....why do you want it in poo2 anon
>>548270362the bench craft is global
>>548271365How many divines would you bet on that?
>>548271261>hcOh the thing that no one who isn't mentally ill cares about, just like ssf and ruthless?
>>548271817cookie clicker
>>548271767why do you think cast on crits builds use it on their 1 hand weapons?
>>548271261metamorph was fine for hc? Just read the mods and avoid anything with "Souls" in the ability
>>548272118So that hits with the weapon can't be evaded.Shame you didn't bet.
>>548272134
>>548272176are you fucking daft?
>>548272274No but I think you might be.
>>548272378have you ever actually played path of exile? lmao
>>548272261Metamorph wasn't the league that added detonate dead to mobs
>>548272417Yes my account was registered in 2012 and I have 36 challenges complete in keepers.What do you think this modifier does in addition to making attacks unable to be evaded with the weapon it's applied to?
>>548272274You know spells can't be evaded by default, right?It only affects attacks.
>>548272134metamorph introduced offscreening to the game beyond reflect mobs newfren
>>548272750okay, but that clip isn't Ziz getting offscreened. It's him shield charging into a mob pack that his minions are killing and getting DD'd.

>>548272973Last Chadpoch won
>>548273606you don't need to roll after act 1
>>548273639thank god he's as zdps as my build or i'd have to pay the ransom
>>548272750I ran thousands of maps with random pre-assembled metamorphs sprinkled in from the atlas node, and I hardly ever died to them. There were a couple bullshit combinations, mostly because the animations didn't play properly, but they weren't nearly as strong as their reputation would have you believe. And the game isn't balanced around hardcore so I don't give a fuck, especially when the hardcore players can just choose to NOT assemble the metamorph.
>>548273703>you don't need to roll after act 1what does this mean
>>548273984no rollan needed past geonor
>>548273606Exalts are not rare, so don't be afraid to use them early.Your weapon is extremely important. Check/craft on every decent base you can.If you are coming from Poo1, know that "increased % X damage" no longer works if you convert X to a different damage type. So the phys->cold attack does not scale with % phys.
>>548274330>If you are coming from Poo1, know that "increased % X damage" no longer works if you convert X to a different damage type. So the phys->cold attack does not scale with % phys.Why the fuck did they do this?
>>548274884is that even true
>>548274884cause Jonathan is Based.
>>548274884double dipping is cringe
dip dip potato chip
>>548274884Because they changed the conversion formula to apply before global mods. Now we can convert from any damage type to any other rather than Phys -> lightning -> cold -> fire -> chaosLocal sources of %phys obviously still apply bc they are calculated before conversion
Doedre? I thought that was my wife!
bros i just figured out maligaro is gay
>>548276021with fidelitas :3
Not everyone who's into arts is gay, dad. He's just a sensitive soul
RELEASE DUELIST NOW
>>548274884Because they're trying to keep numbers lower in PoE2 to slow things down a bit, and double dipping damage increases is ridiculously powerful
>>548267865i would NEVER make a joke in that much bad taste, my name is simply george and i am running void maps :-)
>>548276596I hope he's still based. I like the PoE1 duelist voice and quips too much. Literally just a fighting obsessed gigachad.
reminder that poe2 has two gay men by the life and mana globes. your game is for gay men

hell yeah
>>548277261pride flag life globe mtx in the new supporter pack. comes with 5% iir when equipped

>>548276596I miss strike attacks. Hammers fucking suck dick and are too slow.
I can't think of one build I want to play in PoE2. Those patch notes better slap.
>spectral throw lets you throw any weapon in PoE 1 >PoE 2 wants to establish weapon personalities So which weapon is going to get it? Throwing axes?
>>548278829I liked impending doom (or what's the special version of it called? doedre's undoing?) abyssal lich in 0.3I also liked earthshatter warrior, but they DESPERATELY need to add some fucking increased life% nodes to the tree and stop making warriors take two seconds to swing their maces because its so fucking dogshit in terms of survivability moving that slow, even if you have giga ehp from armour to ele conversion. The loss of easy charge gen and inherent charge bonuses, as well as poe1 fortify, has been utterly disastrous for melee builds.
>>548278979Spectral Throw is never coming back. It doesn't fit the Tencent Vision.>>548278819Strike attacks are never coming back. They don't fit the Tencent vision.
why are the nodes on ninja colored for the tree for poe2 but not poe1 where its gray
>>548278979Throwing bows
>>548279082Deadeye wins again!!
>>548278979>PoE 2 wants to establish weapon personalitiesThe thing is, they're already established in PoE1. They're just making them shitter in Poo2 because they're pigeonholing you too hard.
Can someone explain why Keepers is doing as bad as Necropolis? It didn't feel like one of the worst leagues ever.
>>548279732trvke
MIRRORCOIN IS CRASHING TO 0 WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON I'M RUINED!!!!!!!!!
>>548274330I don't understand why are they also changing how mods work
>>548279739it's a month old and there isn't a gauntlet or other community events.
>>548279061>have a huge rework in settlers to make melee better>completely fail to put any of these melee changes into PoE2Actually fucking insane
>>548279739endgame is the same old shiteverything is halfassedpoe2 has more promise
>>548279739A lot of end game farming has been nerfed into the ground, and loot drops are pretty shit this league. There's really not too much point in investing for giga juicing because the increase in profit just isn't worth the effort.So you basically have a league that's all mid game, which gets boring quicker. I sit there looking at my characters and think "what's even the point in making them stronger". There is no real aspirational content at the moment.
I spend so much time farming gold it is ridiculous.
>>548279732No, bro, it totally adds weight and immersion to the game if your slam attacks are specifically tied to maces and can never be used in combination with any interesting unique axes that come out in the future. It's not only about reducing the work of balancing unintended interactions, we promise.
>>548280203what was your aspiration in mercenaries?
>>548280203>So you basically have a league that's all mid gameThat's because everything that used to be end game is now early game shit that you rush through on day 1 with some random rares you dropped from the tree. Years ago our end game content used to be shit like Conquerors and Shaper guardians, and now we're slapping Chimera at level 84 before we even got around to rolling our flasks. The game is FUCKING EASY when they hand you a million freebies to juice your progress through to the end of progression.
>>548279739Async trade + tree spitting out free 35% chaos res items killed gearing and not having to interact with anyone ever killed the social vibes of the game.
This is unacceptableEither they delete Kingsmarch or I quit the game
>>548281236>not having to interact with anyone ever killed the social vibes of the gameThank god it did, failed normies should suffer and die.
>>548279739endgame farming is pretty much deadbasically the most profitable farms right now are boxes and scarabs, neither of which requires crazy build to runWhen you have more difficult and more profitable farms you have an incentive to keep upgrading your build to farm better to get more upgrades to farm even better etc.Right now you can run a basic bitch KB build with a headhunter and you are set for the rest of the leaguealso people blaming it on tree are coping, if you are the type of person who needs tree to be geared in the first few days you are not the type of person who now quits due to lack of endgameyou could completely remove the tree from this league and it would be dying now all the same
if you hate async, you're simply a cheap jeet>SAAR, you must sell me the item for 20c, saar>fuck off, pay 1d>SAAAR YOU MUST SELL ME FOR 25c SAARnow you're always priced out of items, you chaos recipe farmer
>>548281371>Right now you can run a basic bitch KB build with a headhunter and you are set for the rest of the leagueWasn't it the same thing but just tornado shot before?
>>548281454I do miss getting absurd prices from retarded lowballers though>forget to put the price on progen >someone pings the flask>"100c?"I would then usually accept the invite, put it in the trade window, and then go make something to eat or take a shit
>>548267865>retarded mods probably though you were making a george floyd jokeHe was.
>>548264706Fuck the space marine Warhammer universe, they should ditch it.
>Since at least 2018, the developers of this game have claimed there will never be paid content added to the game, that once you purchase the base game, all updates are free forever.>Today, they have broken that promise and are now going to introduce paid DLC classes. This is while many spells and passive points with existing classes are bugged and do not function properly, or at all.>Avoid buying this game and go play Path of Exile instead.OOF
I don't want any of you freaks talking to me or my toucan ever again
>>548279739the endgame is just kind of rote to me at this point. i don't care that much about new uber bosses. i would like an atlas tree shakeup or something
>>548281668If you are talking about T-shot then that's still the MF era when you needed a lot of good gear to farm effectively since a lot of your slots were occupied by MF itemsbut even then I think that the biggest difference is that before we had ACTUAL loot dropping, not predetermined loot from boxes or loot in form of scarabs but actual currency/uniques/divinatoin cardsdropping good items is just fun, it's infinitely more fun to drop a mageblood than to farm 200d worth of scarabs and buy one
>>548282183then play ssf
>>548281454Whispering 5 faggots to get 1 shit item was great and the game is worse for losing it!Now I don't get to /whois to see if they're in lab or delve or just fucking lazy!
>>548282183How farming the same layout for hours in hopes of finding mageblood can be fun is beyond me. But I guess farming scarabs and selling them is even worse
>>548272274>>548272417Import this guy, put a shield skill in and check chance to hit
>>548276596Real talk if 0.4 is just druid + some imported mechanic even the normoids will complain. It must be either A5 or some other class or multiple ascendancies as well.
>>548282428>How farming the same layout for hours in hopes of finding mageblood can be fun is beyond me.Mageblood was just an example, thats the thing. Everything was dropping back then, unique items, currency items, card, etc. You'd farm thinking "Hope I will get a cool drop" and not "If I farm scarabs for the next 3 hours I will have exactly X divines for my next upgrade"
>>548282529I don't think this helps.I think he died from embarrassment or has to try to find me and kill me to extract izzat or something.
>>548281873>redditard devs>sellout and break your word at the first oppertunityShocking turn of events. I wonder if it's top shills will still defend this trash.
Even Larry said that Last Epoch should be allowed to milk their paypiggies. Nothing can be free forever.

>>548283024Hello, based department?
This league, I've tried a certain farming strategy for the first time. Might be a bad timing with the league, but this is the least fun I've ever had in this game. Genuinely feels like a job
>>548280868I didn't play mercI miss affliction league where you could just build and build and build to run more and more insanely juiced content.
poo1 league was kinda shit so I might give poo2 a try again after 0.1is the endgame still shit with the towers and not being able to choose your layout?
Trying to make an arpg on Unity was a mistake
gold costs need to be reduced by 90%with async and faustus being the default now, there's really no option to hand trade people for things covered by those since people literally do not list them.
>>548283260and wouldn't you know it, affliction had highest retentionit's almost like people like loot and want to be able to scale the difficulty of the content they are running for better rewards
>>548282841They already have been, in this very thread.Check out the posts this dude linked to:>>548237143
>>548283701pooroid
>>548283265They changed it so towers only give you more visibility now, you put tablets (which have multiple uses) directly into the map device now. But its still retarded and shit because its locked behind number of mods (you need max mods to be able to use all 3 tablet slots iirc?).Yeah, instead of literally just using the leftover 3 slots from where you insert the map, they added 3 separate slots so they could lock it down based on mod count. I really don't understand why they're so hesitant to just reuse the scarab system.End game is still shit. Can't choose layouts. Still have to travel about the map overlay. Still have a shit atlas tree, still retardedly rare to find citadels etc.
>>548283212>This league, I've tried a certain farming strategy for the first time
>>548283260Affliction was loot bomb galore, you could have multiple characters at 100, and pennance brand of dissipation allowed even shit builds/ascendancies to insta phase content. Idk why we can't just have that with mercs full time.
>>548283701I never have any problem with the gold cost to trade unless I literally just dumped all my gold into Kingsmarch. Worst case scenario you have to run one map before trading.
>>548285327you can take money out of kingsmarch fyi
>>548285327Beast crafting is insanely costly
Run +110 (I prefer 120) quantitySpec into Alva, Shrines, Scarabs and Ore, make sure you pick up the nodes that add magic monsters to ore nodes.Scarabs: Glittering, Champions x2, Kalgur, Kalgur riches, if you want to swap out one of the champs for a timeline it will up your chances of rolling good chronicles. Enter maps and tunnel vision on Alva/Ore deposits, clear everything else after Maven Witness the bosses.You will pull a minimum of 20c out of every map on top of 70-100k gold. If you get lucky with Alva chrons (the timeline scarab shits out chronicles with the rooms you've unlocked randomly upgraded) you can make a div per map just from that.
>>548285327I would frequently run out of gold buying void fang bases for recomb.But as you say I jump into a sepulchre map and get 100k in a few minutes.

>>548288256I sincerely think the behead jonathan post forced them to release all this QoL. Too bad the game is still stale as fuck
Reminder to invest everything in mirrorcoin because it's going to double in the next 2 weeks.
You people are never going to be happy with anything
>>548294891No one wants your kingsmarch dark pattern mirror sharts. We all quit 2 weeks ago.
Okay, FINE I will farm for mageblood... Just have to kill an Uber boss 300 more times...
>>548296067which uber drops mageblood?
>>548293370Yeah, I don't see anyone interested in it except an occasional enthusiast who has two k hours in it. They are too slow with additions to the game, and probably the same can be said about their mtx shop. So piggies won't stay there either.
>just 30000 attempts to craft your upgrade broWho came up with this crafting system?
>>548279739PoE1 is spiritually abandoned and players can sense it
>>548296885I genuinely can not come up with a way to improve this build without spending 100 div minimum, and to get the rings I want we're talking a mirror at least. |https://pobb.in/g10EnSMzJb0ZMageblood, progenisis, maybe the Wine of the Prophet...I've thought about going cold crit and selling my axe (which is worth at least 60 div) and building a kinetic cluster build that looks fun.
>>548296338no idea but I know which one drops bino
>>548297491They just need to go back to affliction league, add mercs, and double gold drop rates, and players will never leave. Adding a pantheon touched rare to every t14 map and a non uber pinnacle boss to every t16+ would be dope too.
>>548297553excuse me but what the fuck sort of build is this with such low life and ES/Mana, I'm curious af
>>548297665>Giving players insane amounts of loot will keep them around foreverSo why did LE die so fast after it got shilled during PoE's 0.2?
>>548297742it's just a ZHP trapperHP doesn't matter because you just kill the boss in 1 hit and walk outthis was 2 or so leagues ago so i don't have the pob but if you look at poe.ninja for assassins with ice trap you'll find the build
>>548297665I think just putting affliction on the fucking atlas tree beyond thorough exploration would be immense.I guess the only issue is that if they did, literally every single player would spec into it. I can sort of understand why it didn't get proper atlas support... But if the mechanic they added is that fucking good then surely thats a win anyway?
>>548297883Idk what any of those words mean sorry I haven't played much between Affliction and last league.
>>548282428it just is. you simply wouldnt get it until you have killed a monster and seen it drop a mageblood, hh or mirror.
>>548297994Thanks m88
>>548297665Affliction league was cool because it actually made the monsters hard enough that I cared about getting stronger. I don't need mercs unless they nerf the Doryani shit. It's boring if the toughest monsters die in 0.01 seconds because they're all -200% lightning resist. The game needs some actual challenging content that isn't dumb shit like deep delve and Valdo.
>>548296885To be fair, here's what else was out in 2011, when PoE started beta:Diablo 2TorchlightTitan Quest
>another arpg kills itself>poe 1 wins again by doing nothingevery single fucking time lmao
>>548298483yeah this would be true but jonatroon is deliberately sabotaging 1 for poo2
>>548298483PoE2 took the bullet and got paygated while PoE1 has been mostly unbothered. If not for PoE2 selling a million beta keys then I'm sure PoE1 would have Chinese loot pets and pay to skip to level 60 by now. Selling your company always results in shitty monetization.
