post your non Dunes, Strand, Jungle Valley, Silo... you get the idea, common maps, strats.I'm planning on doing something in Underground Sea. Layout is okay but what I'm after is that juicy density. Maps of exile has them at 9. Nothing really groundbreaking desu.I could do Tox Sew (dens 7), but I spent a few leagues cycloning in there... could use some fresh air out of the sewers
Okay, so we like all our endgame gameplay being grayscale and muddled? Just checking for the 4channy opinion.
>>548501076I like to do Schizo Mirror + Beyond + either Eater or Searing on Frozen Cabins since it's just one long, curvy line you can rush through it pretty fast. Really hard to miss side content since the map is so narrow.
>>548501164Frozen Cabin is comfy... until you get to the levers. Hate em. Wouldn't Underground River be a straight upgrade? Though the cavern aesthetic is a lot less cooler.
>>548500935zesty
>>548501390The aesthetic carries it for me for sure, but I'm using a MB now so I'm absolutely zooming, so getting to and from the levers isn't that much work. Enclosed rooms also make for decent spots to utterly fill with molten balls and have enough walls to stop the ranged enemies from ripping me in half. I should try Underground River again, though right now I have Villa scried onto Frozen Cabins for the chance on the Nimis card.

trying to use the bulk exchange for yellow beastsbut I'm not getting listed on the trade websitefirst time it worked, but now it doesn't, what am I missing?tab is set to public + individually priced
>>548501076why though? Those are the best layouts for their thing, and running meta maps means you can easily find plenty of 8 mod corrupted 16.5s on trade. Sure they're like 2c-3c more expensive compared to shit maps but 3c per map is nothing to any endgame farming strategy
POOOOOP
>>548503893nobody going to buy your beasts with non async thoeither promote yourself on tranny troveor just post all of your beasts in the single page on async and hope someone uses the script to collapse sellers and find yours
>>548503893>>548505118Someone bought them instantly beforeAnyway, I figured out what the problem appears to be. Some of the beasts are not counted as yellow beasts because they have two mods instead of one, so they're red beasts I guessBut there's no bulk exchange for thosewtf is this fucking bullshit I want async bulk trade for beasts
>month 2 "players"
>>548500795Reddit is unironically more toxic around PoE than /vg/ is lmaoThere's some sperg on the reddit who downvotes basically every single postthey are incredibly schizo from thread to thread, one thread they will complain about fortress and hive breach, the next they will laud it as an amazing mechanic and downvote everyone who says otherwise.I'm glad I just have to deal with completely anonymous schizophrenic trannies and autists here in poeg
ok but I just started league so what's the go-to shitterfarm for mb, essence?
>>548506461Essences are worthless this league because treeShutters are farming harvest now
>>548506461hive runner
fuk harvest is boring
>>548498627HC cucks this is for you
>>548506461essence is worse this league because fortress and breach hives eat up shitloads of the map, so a lot of map rares get converted to breach monsters and so aren't affected by scarab of calcification.Having said that I did make like 5 div off 7 alch and go t16 maps with it yesterday when I tried it for shits and giggles, and that was with having the node that fucks up corrupting essences for the first 5 maps. Its just annoying when you hit a fort/hive, especially when you get multiple in a row. I think you can still make slow and steady gains with it, just not as much as in previous leagues.
>>548506461At this point probably alva with some other strat like gold or div cards.

>>548506604HC is easy and relaxing for some people.
>>548505724You fucking retard you should be thankful you didn't sell them, they're useless. You'd be scamming people.
>>tfw they are flying off the shelves>1 empty space out of 144???
>>548507628Yeah it's weird.I decided to start trying driver rollbacks to solve my gpu latency problem after a few days and when I logged in I'd sold half my async tabs.Might pick the game up again and try to craft a better claw and push for 40/40 now I can do ubers without the game tubbing out.When I get out of work I'll see what I get out of this 44m shipment.

>>548514781Only if you completely replace the old breach with the new one. Are you willing to take that trade?
>>548516004Sure, just block it on the atlas and buy the foulbourns
>>548508262the laziest effort out of GGG in a long time
im playing too many anime games im worried im gonna drop one when poe2 drops 0.4
>>548508262if it wasnt for async it would have been higher than mercenaries
so what ended up being the most busted (relatively cheap + mega powerful) build this league? or was it fairly balanced?
>>548508262ITS HERETHE NECROPOLIS FLIPPENING
>>548518801the objectively most powerful build this league was int / accuracy stacker, im talking literal billions of dps with good gearits like trickster with 10x the damage and half the defenseshowever it is miserable to play and theres nothing in the game that requires that level of raw power outside of some groupcuck mf hyperjuicing maybe. so its certainly not the best build and not many are playing it.lightning res stack kboc hiero is probably the best in terms of raw power and clear
>>548501076I used to do old breach on Dunes so I needed something new. been doing beyond with boss block, shrines, ritual spawn chance, exarch, map effect atlas on jungle valley with 1 monstrous lineage, 1 influencing of hordes, 1 haemo, 1 beyond of invasion, and a delirium scarab to spawn a mirror. domination on map device. good exp and you make a bunch from exarch altars. replace deli with another haemo scarab if your build can't do it or you don't like it. I recommend using a headhunter
Enki's Arc Witch
>>548508262it's literally, figuratively, and objectively over. what a failure of a league.
>>548501076those maps are popular for a reasonif you want maximum density, glacier is the smallest map in the game. its natural density isnt great but it gets insane when you add monsters to the map due to its tiny size

>>548508262>worse than necrothis has to be shopped
>>548521774filtered by marks hairful vision
>>548521942No.It's the first async league and people are finishing it with unprecedented speed because trade friction is gone.You can spam buy bases for anything you need, you can get whatever maps you need in whatever quantity you need, all immediately.
And that's a good thing
>>548511818Where's the onlyfans?
There is no public data, but GGG would be able to see retention for SSF vs. non-SSF players league-to-league
>>548522119anon i have a task for you.open path of exile 1 and log onto a strong characterrun 100 maps, ideally a fast strategy, and do the breach encounter then tell me how you feel about the encounters where you defend ailithdo you like the walls?do you like standing still and holding down rightclick while you wait for the monsters to spawn?do you like the amount of loot that drops at the end of the encounter?bonus task for extra points: put all the hivebrain glands in a tab and run them in succession at the end. ideally with the dialogue volume turned up to the maximum.then come back to me and we can have a serious discussion about the league
>>548522709They're fine. But they would be very unpleasant if I had to leave the map to trade. Or if I had to leave sanctum or delve or lab to trade.No one does anymore.I can sell items when I'm asleep.
>>548521774+Izzat
>>548522698every ssf player i know quit the league waybfaster than normal, myself included. both the casuals and the mazefreaks
>>548523021Selection bias.You're just straight up retarded if you play non trade and skip the first async iteration.
>>548523174>first poorfag spotted
>>548523260Thanks for paid beta testing.I mean it. Thanks.
>>548508262>Keepers is the WOATidk man I didn't even think it was that bad. I mean I've certainly played worse. guess I'm wrong tho
>>548522709>ideally with the dialogue volume turned up to the maximum.I wouldn't make it more than 1 map in before gooning to Esh's hysteric BPD brat voice.
>>548519778any cool new builds?
Apologize to Gog
>>548508262what's important to keep in mind is that when necropolis was around, you weren't looking forward to a new poe 2 update in a monththe new 2 month update cycle is what's killing player retention. necropolis was objectively worse than keepers, but that doesn't matter, because players don't want to get burnt out before the new poe 2 league
>go take a sleep>focused amulets went up 10 div
>>548523987no. async is amazing and you're a retard if you think that's the issue with this league
>>548523174you dont understand why people play ssf. its not because trading is annoying. if that was the case, i would play trade and only use the currency exchange. maybe buy some uniques i need for my build and sell high value items.no, people play ssf because they dont like how progression works in trade. they dont like how everything is a commodity, every item can be reduced to a divine orb price. async trade only made that worse.
>>548523987he might be right but async is worth the price. retention be damned. everything is so much faster and easier now
>>548499792I was playing a delirium map and I straight up couldn't see enemies with proximal tangibility. Might be getting too old for this shit
>>548523994im not looking forward to a new poe2 update and i quit the league
>>548524303>everything is so much faster and easier now>retention be damnedIt's almost like... a pattern, and not a light one
>>548524108You're right, I don't understand why people play it.
>>548508262>add asynchronous trade>player retention plummetsAPOLOGIZE
>>548508262post this to reddit and link the thread
>>548501076I'm a retard and like phantasmagoria because its just a long pathway without any bullshit exploration needed, I can just move in 1 direction. Also because of the nature of the map layout, a fortress breach doesn't do anywhere near as much damage to the map as it might do somewhere else.
>>548524491that bald fucking retard do be kinda based
>dark patterns slurpers would just call every league bad from now on>instead of admitting async was a mistakeSad desu
>>548508262so Chris was right and Jonatroon lost. who could have guessed???

>>548524828IT WAS BADIT FUCKING SUCKEDWALLSNO LOOTSUCK MY COCK JONATHAN WOODFUL ROGERS
>>548524828>>548524416how is async trading a dark pattern? because you want to login to see if stuff sold? non-async trading could also be a dark pattern because it encourages you to stay logged in so you move your items. how is that better?
>>548525313retard
>>548524828>removing trade friction is a bad thingYou are a certifiable fucking retardAlso, async trade was introduced for PoE2 months before they introduced it for PoE1.
>>548524416i know you're shitposting but async is pretty much the opposite of dark pattern>less busywork>more gameplay >less in-game time overall because of all the unnecessary fat that's been cut out (tedious trading)buying 40+ regexed 8 mod corrupted maps now takes me like 5 mins tops, it's so fucking good
>>548525930I don't think they understand how fucking dead the league would be without async lmaoIf anything async is what's propping it up.Reminder that:- they've utterly fucking nerfed high end farming, scarabs + atlas tree- fortress and hive breaches nuke non-tile-based farming strategies- they've nerfed quantIf you had the old trade friction on top of this, the league would be a complete fucking ghost town right now - like way worse than it currently is.
genshin tomorrow
Low retention is actually a good thing, as it cuts down server costs faster. As long as people buy supporter's packs GGG keeps winning
Just make the game harder to compensate for async 4head
>>548525930>buying 40+ regexed 8 mod corrupted maps now takes me like 5 mins tops, it's so fucking goodthis is the best thing. you were more or less forced to use TFT before unless you knew bulk sellers in game or farmed your own.
>>548526450That'd be concurrency, not retention.Real retention hasn't been measured yet.
>add async trade and powerful early game crafting to poe2>everyone is happy, league performs great, better retention than dawn of the hunt>add async trade and powerful early game crafting to poe1>league is universally disliked, considered the worst league since kalandra, worse retention than even necropolisexplain please.
Async is the best thing they've added
>>548526552Real retention is 90%+, all the sane players have already quit, all the streamers quit, only gigamazed trannies like the guy who keeps buying 8modded maps are still playing and the funniest part - will be playing until the next league hits
>>548526489I still have people added to my friend list as "lab runner guy" from helmet enchant days kek
>>548526645>better retention than dawn of the huntThe lowest of bars
Retain THIS
>>548526762https://clips.twitch.tv/AstuteResourcefulWaspCoolStoryBob
semen retention
Atziri Atziri
Reminder that if your system relies on chinks posting fake listings to keep it functional, it's a shit system
>>548526762even the mazedest freaks of them all will quit this league eventually. theres not a single fun farm in the endgame that makes you want to log in and do just one more map. theres no loot to keep you hoping that the next map will be the one that drops the mirror or mageblood. and every other map you get a personal reminder from jonathan that you should log out and play poe2 because it doesnt have fucking walls in the map.the retention so far has been abysmal but the numbers near end of league will be even worse. we might unironically see a steam ccu below 1k like 4 months in.
>>548498627Bros I'm going to try this game. I heard you can dual class so I want to make a death knight. How would I go about doing that? Start a tank and spec into witch later?
I for one am still playing 0.3
insanely funny seeing all these people shit on Geoff Keighley for trying to hype up a Diablo 4 expansion lmao
>>548527180this is such a great clip lmao
>>548526645yeah async is totally the issue with this league, nothing else is going on
It's time to admit that Path of Exile just isn't that fun.
....in poop land.
>>548527610We should all purchase Last Epoch and the new DLC classes instead.
>>548527180trvke
considering starting a new characterhow far will 100d get me with KB
>>548527610trvke
>Dawn of the Hunt added a single class, marginal endgame content, and didn't have a real league (Azmeri wisps sucked and also were core immediately)>Third Edict added a whole new act, dozens of new maps, interludes, async trading, very powerful crafting, and the first real league mechanic for Poe2Both had almost the same % retention
poe2 needs more r34 before it can be considered good
>>548527905grab a headhunter and a decent wand, then farm a nimis. you'll be fine, probably.
>>548528162which class/ascendancy should i go? im seeing elementalist, deadeye and hierophant
>>548528019how does a new act increase the % retentionit gets the campaign redditors to pick up the game again and drop it after finishing the new act? wouldnt that make it worse?
>>548528289Not having to do cruel should have made rerolling for alts more appealing
>>548526403isn't it like 40 hours from now
>>548527905>>548528286with that budget you can play something way less gay and lame than KBgo play accuracy stacker jugg or something
>>548528390its tomorrow night
>>548528459have you actually played accuracy stacker jugg? it sucks
>>548528459never tried KB and just wanted to try it because ive always hear it was a smooth mapper, i want to zoom
>>548528613retards in ben's chat shilled it so hard for ben to play and after he played it he quit the league
i founded a svalinn :)
>>548528789yeah i played it myself and it feels like shit. whirling blades movement is terribly clunky, you get stuck on things all the time and it just feels bad. i dont even really understand why it feels so bad because shield charge is basically the same skill and feels amazing but thats how it is
ngl as a person that still really enjoys Path of Exile 1, it's pretty easy to see that Path of Exile 2 will surpass it very quickly. All it needs is an equivalent to scarabs (actual scarabs, not just generic juice like tablets)
>>548529429trvke
>>548529429also idols
why do we need tablets and scarabs just increase the strength of atlas nodes and do away with that shit
>>548528519oh nice I'm retarded
>>548529429As a fellow exile I think we need to accept the uncomfortable truth that GGG no longer have what it takes to make a good game. These days I only play Last Epoch. The new expansion and Paladin Classes look amazing so I got my ARPG fix covered.
>>548529993when everyone has access to the same juice, nothing is juiced
>>548529993to make div/hour number go big make atlas nodes which reduce loading times instead :^)
>>548530454That's why poe2 juice is locked behind corrupted rare tablets from arbiter
>>548527610deliberately sabotaged by a dark pattern troon
>>548529929There is just no way they randomly introduced idols in poe 1 and aren't using them in poe 2 in some way>it was just a scrapped ideaDOUBT IT
>>548530653Tell us more about your corrupted rare tablets setup
>Fate of the Vaal>Fate of the WallHOLY SHITWALL LEAGUE CONFIRMEDKEEPERS WAS A BETA TEST
>>548530765i hate mark too
>>548529429PoE2 needs an entire atlas tree rework, tablet/scarab system rework, map generation rework, etc. It basically needs an entire endgame rework.However, I do agree. I think in 2-3 years PoE2 will be vastly more popular than PoE1.
I unironically (actually (earnestly) for real) like sprinting
How are you today Nenet?B L E A K
>>548531868Same but I could do with Leap Slam being faster and Blink not costing 100 fucking spirit

>>548529429This game doesn't have swords btw
So I almost ragequit the game this weekend since I borked a recomb I've been planning since somehow, and seemingly no one has noticed but they removed all named crafts and just changed them all into generic "Upgraded" ones, meaning that you can't "force" a 3 T1 + 3 T1 mods easily now. What the fuck is up with that? How do you go about doing big recombs now?
They're for sissys anywaysSwordplay gai boi
>>548533008You don't craft crafted mods
any gay boys want to cross swords hehe
>>548533008You don't.The deterministic poppy gets cut down.
>>548533196me :3c
>>548533189What do you mean? I thought the guide referred to stuff you can just craft with double mods, Was that referring to someone else? I've seen videos doing the same thing as well.
>>548523987He was literally wrong thoughever>NOOOO LOOT WASNT NERFED AND BREACH ISNT EATING YOUR MOBS ASYNC HAS ANGERED THE VISION GODS>turns out ground loot was absolutely nerfed and breach is most definitely eating your mobsI have no clue why anyone takes this bloated faggot seriously since he kneecapped altar farming by bitching about wrath of the cosmos
>>548533008>and seemingly no one has noticeddid you not notice how nobody uses the recombinator for endgame crafts anymore? the deterministic crafting method that lets you get 5 t1 mods on an item for like 15 divines and everyone just stopped using it?it was removed in 3.26 already
>>548533448I've stopped using recombinators entirely after they've been nerfed in the previous patch, but before that my conclusion was to not craft any crafted mod
sirgog didnt even complete the 50k quant challenge or any of the red map challenges>Searing Exarch Altars with Wrath of the Cosmos Allocated (52/100)>Eater of Worlds Altars with Eldritch Gaze Allocated (53/100)>Witnessed Map Bosses with Destructive Play Allocated (74/150)nigger did 200 red maps (literally 5 hours of mapping)
>>548534013Challenges are dark patterns
I hope poe2 new atlas lets me block ritual
>>548533539>>548533727That's really fucking gay then. I thought no one bothered this league since the tree can just shit out 1100+ PDPS axes and I was insane for doing alting since I realised that Foulborn currency can only roll T5 and above.I still want to give it another go though, assuming I have 2 3 T1 modded gear, what's the best way to go about it now? Craft triple mod, slap anything decent on it and pray? I'm sure recombing them bare is retarded.
>>548534013dysgenic grifter "sirnog" does not play the game in any meaningful way.
>sirgog said the league is bad>stood by his word by not playing Based.
poo has been on the decline ever since bald fucking retard left and its undeniable at this point
>>548534439but these numbers... they are as great as you can get
>>sirgog said the league is badhe is right. there have been zero good post-wilsonian leagues
Chris would have loved poe2 on release
>>548534439since talisman? trvke.
>>548507968Yes I know, I probably also scammed that guy and unknowingly gave him some red beasts along with the yellow ones, and I will feel terrible for the rest of the weekBut ultimately it's GGG's fault for designing this shitty crafting system where you can't substitute yellow beasts with red ones.
>>548534439>got CE+async>got pause>melee got goodI'm loving it
>>548534346>not playingif he's not still playing the league, he was playing at most 11 days ago when he made a video on 3.27.0d, where he showed how he uses async trade
ce = currency exchange = cheat engine
>>548534942The chisel baronMaster market god
>>548534261crafted mods no longer count towards the mod pool if you have more than 1, theres no point. they are only useful for lowering the recomb cost by crafting on the other side of the item, i think thats still a thing.you can get a 2 mod item same as before and you can get a 3 mod item by doing 2 + 2 recomb. more than 3 mods requires you to abuse non native modifiers where the basic idea is that you get mods on one item that cant appear on the other item. for example you recomb an es shield with 1 shield and an armor shield that has a good prefix and 2 random armor prefixes. if the es shield gets chosen, you have a very high chance to get both of your desired mods because the armor mods count towards the number of mods but they cant transfer. however as you can imagine, this is limited and quite expensive to set up. you can also use some essences for this purpose like flat evasion essence (iirc) on an es base to roll a mod and get an additional mod on the item that cant transfer. its kinda tricky here because only some tiers are the same as the real mods.

no seriously why is async so beloved in poe 2 but not poe 1 lol

>We are re-assessing the rewards from Breach monsters in map areas with an eye towards making the league mechanic encounters more rewarding directly, and thus more worth the time to engage with. We’re aware of the feedback regarding Hive encounters, with players frustrated by having to spend too much time destroying walls before the encounter. We’re investigating an option to allow a large number of walls to be destroyed at the start of the encounter.>Outside of Breach-specific changes, we are aware of feedback from players that late endgame farming strategies are currently lacking in diversity and progression. We are putting together a list of adjustments to address this, with an emphasis on making currently underperforming strategies more competitive.

>>548531832I am genuinely confused by their approach to end game in 2.By their own admission, they only began working on end game a handful of months before EA launch.So what did they do in that short amount of time? Do they take the incredibly fleshed out, tried and tested PoE1 system for the time being and adjust as they go along?No. They invest time into creating an entirely new atlas mapping system, way of getting atlas points, etc., that is objectively worse than in PoE1.Like i genuinely don't understand. they could have ported and tweaked the existing system far easier than the retarded shit they came up with.
>>548535284poo 1 "players" have spent years giving donnie toppies to varga for muh vouchesanything that reduces their importance is met with extreme hostility. it's really not complicated at all.
>>548535284it is beloved in poe 1
>>548537332PoE really has a lot of streamerfags interestingly enough. You'll have 1 digit challenge people spamming in G1 how "farming" was nerfed, like how would you know about that little guy?
>>548532437Kek, its been ages since i watched one of his vids; he sold a lotus that had a fake signature on it?
>>548537093But that doesn't make any sense, that part wasn't referring to PoE2

>>548537497false
>>548535284It is beloved in PoE1, even on reddit. Everyone is agreeing that its basically the only thing propping up the league.Its literally just 1 schizophrenic shitposter in /poeg/
>>548536727you just craft items the normal way.
What's a atlas strat that benefits from giga juicing quant/rarity altars? I'm fucking tired of searing altars that spit small currency but feel like there's no jackpot to chase.Caveat being, no harvest. I refuse
>>548535284There is not a single human entity disliking async trade.It's all AI and non-human tradies coping with "lost" "profit"
>>548537583>actual meleeskills that can't clear in a clearspeed game
What happened to Etup?
>>548537506What gets me is braindead people asking for help in general or on reddit and just being like "i'm playing {streamer with 1k views no one has ever heard of}'s [skill] build" as if anyone fucking else knows who the fuck or what the fuck that is
>>548538226Breast cancer.
>>548537332i LOVE this "loot is actually fine chud" memethere were no nerfs to explicit map effectthere were no nerfs to t17 mod quantthere was no removal of the merc quant bonusthere were no hidden loot nerfs in addition to any of these changes that didnt happenyou didnt make 3x as much currency doing the same basic beast essence whatever farm last leagueyour divines didnt have more buying power last league despite the fact that you got 3x as many of themjust farm the loot tile chuddo the breachdefend ailithdestroy the fortressdo your kingsmarchplay poe2 the fate of the vaal async trade is the problem youre bored of poeeverything is fine
Is just deferring the way with Ritual? I see so many people just spamming defers even though they can outright buy the thing.
>>548538280they're new and don't really understand how many options the game has. they think they're asking for help with "Marauder build 1 (of 2)" and that half of Marauder players in the forum will be using the same build.
>>548538139a lot of people prefer eldritch altars because there's one that gives div chanceMaybe you could focus on eater and also idk, witnessing map bosses with increased chisel drop chance? Like go for thorough exploration, get to less than 50 monsters, get the max amount of maven witnessed map bosses + they're all juiced with wildwood wisps.
>>548538448its tribute neutral to defer as opposed to buying but it lets you save up points in case you get a big item on later rerolls.
>>548538565no, by deferring you lose on tribute, its always better to instantly buy out an item
>>548538448isn't the best stuff too expensive to buy with one map's tribute? the idea is you can get everything good that appears it just takes longer.
>>548534942>fat retard would rather have a melty over Async instead of admitting the league was turbo dogshit
>>548538372>t17 mod quantyeah bro I totally believe you redditors were farming t17s with maximum explicit effect LMAO
>>548537583>proj spam still shits on any actual melee skill iAh yes that's why everyone is leaguestarting earthshatter and then playing reave, cycle and ground slam.
>>548533008nigga, you can go for 3 T1 of suffix OR prefixjust have a quad tab full of bases, 10k alts, 5mil gold and 30mil dust ready
>>548538708with all the nodes clicked theres a marginal fee in addition to the discount you get but theres a small chance for items to be free so it evens out.
3.28 will be the final expansion for POOLudo PoE2 will shine, +95 MC game very beautiful
>>548538876>there were no hidden loot nerfs in addition to any of these changes that didnt happen>10k altsThat's not even enough to get a Merciless or Dictator's desu
>>548538708the logic is that over time you end up with most of the stuff that appears in the reward screen being things you actually want. it takes longer but you don't have to pick one good thing over another. as usual for a "best" strat in this genre its as much about FOMO as people having compared the long term profitability of doing different things on a spreadsheet.
>>548538843beast farming making 3x as much money in 3.26 because the top end juicers had more currency to spend on their mirror crafts? that didnt happen. man im excited for druid. only 10 more days
>>548538965Yes yes, full izaat, 3.29 will never come to be, poe2 very izaat
>>548539087what does this mean
Keepers has the absolute least amount of loot out of any Path of Exile league IN HISTORY. That's why it has historically bad retention. There has literally never been less loot than right now. It is IMPOSSIBLE to get natural divine drops.
>>548538843Self report
>>548539087get off twitter benchotps: *izzat*
I never traded before until async came in because I just couldn't fucking deal with faggots trying to constantly haggle prices or AFK
>>548539082>top end juicers>mirror craftsoh so just more things that YOU aren't personally doing? LOL
>>548538843>Curse immunity>Ref immunity>Regex out 3 mods>You are now farming t17s with mod effectOH MY SCIENCE IT CANT BE REAL
>>548538969you don't need alts for those, just throw items from the tree in there if you need such an item
>>548539082kek I'm so excited about ATZIRI ATZIRI that i keep forgetting that fucking Druid is going to be added at the same time. it's really hard to process.
>>548539131he is still trying to force the meme of poe2 being a third worlders game despite poe1 being plagued with bots and rmters
>>548539430It won't be in the 30% quality base that I want though
/poeg/ is now defending T17, just to let you know that this general stands for nothing
>>548539589i don't have any problems doing the content so why should i care
>>548539403thats right, im not doing mirror crafts, i dont know anything about these things, why do my beasts sell for so little this league? probably because of async trade, it wasnt even that much more last league. 3 hours of casual beast farming to buy a mageblood last week? i must be misremembering, that sounds too good to be true. maybe it was 30 hours. habe yiu ever used tides of time? its basically the same item as mageblood. farm beasts for a bit and you can buy tides of time, probably even faster this league than last league. beast farmers are eating good.
>>548539650maybe the content should be fun instead of just profitable>b-b-but it is fun, I have so much fun rolling t17 modslol
>>548539589All they had to do was just remove the phase spam during the bossfights desu.
>>548539563pointless min-max. 30% are for mirror itemsyou can do just fine with 1200 pdps 2H
I just like summoning skeletons and watching them hit people
>>548539589Looks to me like it's one retard who's attempting to characterize T17s as some ultra aspirational content because xhe was wrong about how loot works and people are clowning them for it, where do you see the defense of T17s?
>>548539948refer to >>548539650
>>548539867Summonergods are the most oppressed group in modern vidya
>>548540062Well yeah I agree
>>548539948das right, t17s with maximum explicit effect is not aspirational content. Nothing in the game is aspirational content because everything is very easy, which is a good thing btw since the only thing that matters is div/hr
>>548540125>exist>outsource damage to your eternal slaves>cause seethingFeels good
Alright bros, help me out here.Trying to follow Fubguns KB deadeyeFinally hit 90 despite red map mods keeping me at 89 for days.Got normal maps done, hit 90, bought gear.Im res cap, 50 chaos res, 3k hp 1.2k ESI'm still absolutely squisy af tho.Not even the death by a thousand cuts type. The hydra one shot me in a no mod map.What the hell do i do? How do i get 4 stones when i cant even exist?
It's kinda funneh that in PoE2 summoner is just accidentally good sometimes because the guy who makes sure every minion skill & spectre is shit missed a few things.
>>548540382>Alright bros, help me out here.>Trying to follow Fubguns KB deadeyeHis build, ask him...
>>548539589i would prefer the loot being in normal maps, t17 mods are cancer and unfun. i loved farming exiles in settlers for that reason, just some honest to god damage / tankyness mods. but they didnt move the loot from t17s back to t16s, they just removed it. obviously thats even worse. and you still need to run t16.5 and t17 maps so what even was the point.
>>548540382Pay a guy who would kill all the bosses for youFubgun's builds are cuckoriented so take a seat and enjoy watching!
>>548540382reroll to something not made by an rmter I guess
>>548540198I don't see what (you) getting your bussy turned inside out by tentacle masses has to do with the fact that loot was indisputably nerfed in 3.27

>>548540536>>548540519>>548540580I had read the comments about how he paid for carries to 4 stones, but i actually didnt think it would be this bad.How the hell do you call this a league starter but it needs carries to exist.

Herald stacker was super fun to farm with.Tried int acc stacker jugg, holy shit that build needs shit to be remotely playablessf btwThanks for reading my blogpost
>>548541365its a meme referring to statements made by sirgog aka sirblob aka The Chisel Chieftain. read through his forum posts if you want a good laugh
The best part about people saying async killed this season is that it implies the only reason people stay on is to trade, not to play the game.Thus the numbers were always inflated, and the game is actually bad. :3
>poe1sissies are still in disbelief async has ruined their gameHow many patches would it take for their eyes to finally open? Will it happen in .28? .29? .30?
>>548541537Or that a good chunk of the progress is getting through the horrendous """"trading"""" system and smoothing it out that it takes less time lets people "finish" earlier. Very interesting game design where the frustration is just to pad out game time.
>>548541446How the hell do you stack heralds in ssf?I thought you needed specific uniques for that.
dw when they buff the loot again with some broken farming strat, people will go back to complaining about GGG balancing for the 0.01%
>>548541537T R V K E
>>548540794>until MByou mean hhand i guess nimispretty much mandatory for doing t17s on a fubgun build
>>548541809Start Witch. Click Elementalist.
>>548541258>How the hell do you call this a league starter but it needs carries to exist.Jokes aside it is legitimately insane how content creators can put out league start plans that include TFT boss carries without being bullied off their platformI don't care if you have to spend 2 weeks in heist/sanctum jail to farm a build that can do it, you better get your own stones
>>548541446herald stacker was so fun i kept playing this shitty league for way longer than i otherwise would have. on my character i dont even have to use penance brand, i can shield charge through the map and everything explodes. provided theres no walls cucking me.i also played int acc stack jugg and pushed it to the maximum of the "basic" version with astramentis where all the increased damage comes from gear and tree still. its like... 10m dps? more if i use mamba, maybe 20? strong enough to zoom through t17s but i just didnt enjoy playing it. the upgrade path for that character is extremely cringe too since its just clusters and heist jewellery. i even made a heist runner but i didnt feel like grinding it out because the int stacker just isnt fun to play compared to the herald guy.ssfbtw also.
>>548541915I don't understand why people also rush to them. Like I see people with 6 cheevos asking for Voidstone carries.
We'd be at 11% retention without async trade>ok gamers hive fortresses are gonna take 3 maps worth of time >do they drop anything?>no :^)))))
if you played the league longer than a day you are not allowed to call it a shit league
Boy I can't wait for new poo2 league to build lightning claw druid like 98% of playerbase will do for first week.Until fubgun will release lightning claw deadeye guide which has 2billion dps
>>548541775Basically this.Poe 1 seems dead because those that didnt roll shit builds can hit endgame with minimal gear and fast trading made it faster.Meanwhile everyone else wallows in brokedome cause everything 'decreased' in value since theres no social friction with tradingPOE2 is just fucking imbalanced and async is slapping an economy that hasnt evolved into anything yet.It really do be crazy not having sit in base forever or leave pc on or leave in the middle of map for trades.
>>548542328ive never even logged into poo of dogshit 1
>>548541809you just need the breach ring. its painful to farm but you can do it.
>>548541537I got to Act 3 then couldn't bare the slog instantly losing interest. The people who got further left when they got to maps.Only people who actually stayed on were tradecucks and bots. They need to completely buff the Passive tree and every ability, rebalancing the entire game to make it fun again. I'll play the next one because its Druid and Vaal kino but it may take some alcohol abuse to get through Act 3 again.
>>548542450>DruidIt'd just be Deadeye again unless they actively nerf her or maybe someone will figure out another "unintended" interaction like that Snek attack which gets nerfed as a "bugfix" 3 days in.
I got 4stones and did a couple t17s then uninstalledskipping 0.4 too btw
>>548541537it does not imply that. it implies that async trade speeding up progression resulted in players quitting more quickly. which isnt true either obviously if you look at past leagues with more loot and thus faster progression. but thats the argument they are making.
>>548542204I mean, if you're planning on mapping void stones should 100% be your priority if you don't have em yetI always set aside some currency on league start to buy/craft gear for a boss swap
>>548542687I look forward to being heavy stunned out of beastmode every 2 seconds in any content above acts.
>>548543061retard
>>548542729im thinking this animetroon is one of the good ones
>>548542204They rush them because its the most linear thing to do after the story, I'd say.
>>548542204having voidstones socketed makes you drop t17 mapsits free money
>>548542684Arc would never say that.
>>548542687>It'd just be Deadeye again unless they actively nerf herthey better lol Fubgun was in t15s in 16 hours last league, and that was on first playthrough of the new acts. but all they need to do is change how chain support scales LR so bosses in the campaign exist for more than 2 seconds with the gear you find as you go.
>>548543061God I can't waitPoo2's redditor fanbase has been frothing at the mouth for druid for some reason, what's going to happen when they realize it has unusable levels of clunk in maps and 0.4 is another lightning deadeye league
is they adding towers back
>>548543929>so bosses in the campaign exist for more than 2 seconds with the gear you find as you go.Literally impossible in the current iteration of the game unless you get shafted on weaponsEven then you could just cuck yourself like Belton did and trade chance shards until you can buy a decent weapon to roflstomp the campaign with
>>548544010>it has unusable levels of clunk in mapswe've only seen bear. ggg are too gay for D2 not to provide some version of werewolf Rabid. plus you are overestimating how much of the playerbase actually knows or cares about playing efficiently vs LOL I'M A BEAR memes.
>>548544010I still think its crazy they havnt changed how parry works for huntress.Literally useless mechanic past campaign, and it prob wont get touched.
dey is adding towers back in the form of a tower defense minigame utilizing ToTA units and mechanics
>>548544010The Poo 1 classes are the last thread keeping them believing "its EA it will get better trust the vision"
>>548544208>BearPeople will be drooling about Wyvern instead. Unless it's a shitty variant.
>>548544192>tradeobviously, but LR deletes bosses through the campaign even with ssf gear. its significantly easier than other builds. whether deadeye is also too good at endgame farming is something ggg will presumably use server data to balance.
0.4 might be the worst state of poe2 yetan endgame rework following multiple disastrous endgame reworks in both poe1 and poe2druid with 2 second added time on every skilltotapossible 180 on the deterministic crafting of 0.3doomgawds... im feeling real good about this one
>>548543929>t15s in 16 hoursYou can do that on any build that is strong enough to finish the campaign, poe2 atlas progression is just like that.
>>548544286You liked Huntress parry?Let me introduce you to "Bestial Stance" negative evasion because you are a big guy now. I am looking forward to seeing what brilliant new mechanic they introduce.
>>548544208>some version of werewolf Rabidshit's gonna get heavy stunned at the sight of a monkey>you are overestimating how much of the playerbase actually knows or cares about playing efficiently vs LOL I'M A BEARThat was the idea behind huntress's parry and lollmao
>>548544192before release we were repeatedly promised mediumcore where dying was disincentivized with slowed and you needed to learn bossfight mechanics. deadeye just doesn't have to deal with any of that at leaguestart currently.
>/poeg/ suddenly hates act 2why?
>>548545016>disincentivized with slowedwith slowed progress, fuck
Is there an actual way to tank damage in poe 2 now?Only tanky build i ever had was ED/Cont lich cause i had big ES.
They're removing async in 3.28 and 0.5
>>548545320NoJust get blue health and pour everything into damage
>>548544664In the course of 3 patches they've killed more builds that they enabled. And they are yet to kill even more (no chance lament and tecrod bm survive).What the fuck do you even start this league? Assuming they kill LA, there's like 2 decent starters left: warrior slams or EDC, both bordering on torture (any other build is), and kinda dead end in terms of endgame.
there straight up needs to be a 90% damage nerf in poe 2. Blood Mages can reach 500m DPS and the game doesn't even have half its ascendancies lol
>>548534439This bald faggot did more harm to the game and genre than anyone else. You are completely delulu. You deluded yourself by believing all the bald man's lies.
is forzen the only hc player that doesnt logout macro
>>548545652opinion disregarded by virtue of posting the twitter retard meme
>>548545859not sure sorry
>>548544010>>548544971druid having downsides is fine, just like Parry being useless except v bosses is fine. the problem is if ggg leave some classes with downsides you have play around while others stay as zoom zoom passive playstyle rightclick machines using t15 gear you can buy within a few hours of leaguestart. players will always opt for whatever unlocks 1 button the earliest but the 2-3 people balancing the game must have some kind of longterm plan because otherwise there is no need to even introduce new classes except to have something to put in the league trailer.
>whisper listings 10x lower price than on currency exchangeawakened poe trade is dead
just remembered we'll get the transmog mtx for base armor-weapon skinsit will cost like 30 dollars
>>548545461>they've killed more builds that they enabledthey don't want poe2 to be as easy as it is atm. so if your standard of a "build" is the current difficulty they're obviously going to have to kill some builds.
>>548546193Yeah I got excited why a chaos Impresence apparently costed 100c+ but then I actually checked and it's only 35c.
Whenever you niggers talk about poe 2, it is just baffling. What do you mean you think the only two viable builds are slams and EDC. Literally every qstaff skill is viable. Bleed is insanely broken.
>>548546332its going to be kino to see the reaction to jonathan enforcing his vision of multibutton generator spender slow methodical combat
>>548546554"Viable" never meant "it can do content". Viable means it can blast through everything with 0 effort.

>>548543446It also makes all maps that drop from t16... t16. Its like the bare minimum to begin effectively farming map content.I take my time and go all lower tier maps for dem atlas points before going for voidstones tho
Why are there so many brainlets playing PoE? Why do they rail against their own interest? And why are these retards against trade and not just playing without using it? I guess I know the answer. Said retards are gaslighted by streamers.
>>548548681This won't change much unless the filter has a T1 detector or something and would just fuck over items that have value unided
>>548548596johnny wont allow that, sorry chud
>>548546105>druid having downsides is fine, just like Parry being useless except v bosses is fineStopped reading, you retards deserve 70% deadeye by day 3
>>548545461I want to play an infernal legion minion build, but the best way to do that IMO is with one particular spectre that may just be a bug: its a specific type of zombie raised by a boss in the first zone of act 3. It has inflated HP and a small hitbox so you can actually switch to it in the middle of a pack and hit things with the aura.I'm worried they'll "fix" it.

>>548547171I think they said there'd be more info on the 4th, so I'm expecting the full reveal vid thenBut yes this feels a bit odd
>>548549125I get that you want all the classes to play the same but that wasn't how the game was promoted.

>>548548881>And why are these retards against trade and not just playing without using it?truly one of the saddest phenomena that I see people say they experience is envy of streamers causing them to want to play SSF instead of trade because then "they won't feel bad that they aren't making as much money"

>>54853528498% of people like it2% of autistic weirdos had a thought in their mind "what if it was bad actually" and just ran with it due to them being autistic and weird and being fixated on things
>>548549523The zero effort they actually gave this league and the clear nerfing of loot here and there. >Barely any meta shakeups>Foulborn items aren't really interesting aside from a dozen (to be fair these are most uniques)>League mechanic is often detrimental and just boring Stabilising breaches >>>> Old Breach though>And that's it
>Play elementalist>Allocate 10 Primordial bonds>Can literally play any skill, any archetype, or any build
>>548548627>this was 7 years agoJesus. I only came across his MTG stuff on youtube like a couple of years ago; no wonder everyone was so hostile to him lmaoIts not really surprising though, considering he used to be an actual trader and then went into MTG with a stock trader mindset.
>>548549838right click slop = higher item requirements to be good was the stated goal. ggg are obviously just trying to do it more incrementally to avoid another Huntress shitfest.
>>548537332idk I literally have more currency this league than any other league but the main problem is not currency it is that they nerfed the difficulty of end game strategies.
>>548549959I dislike stabilising breaches because I have to run back to the breach source to fight the rares/boss, also monster generation seems to be a bit fucked compared to old breach... Like sometimes barely any monsters will spawn and it takes longer than it rightly should to kill enough to stabilise.
>>548549523Mark Roberts, the Game Director of Path of Exile (1)
>game is easy >waaah everyone is rich so prices are inflated>game is hard>waaah I have to press more than one button its distracting me from watching Netflix
>>548548596yes we are all playing blue life int stacking spark druid come 0.4
>>548549523low effort filler league because they prioritized poo2 in combination with loot nerfs + endgame shittening and an obnoxious league mechanicthis could have been a decently received league if they just hadnt done all the loot nerfs and added an option to no have the stupid defense breach in your maps. that would have literally been it. just let people kill monsters in a circle with 5 risk scarabs and get some loot.
>>548550426>and it will be better than just playing sorc because...
>>548550096>higher item requirements to be good was the stated goalWhich was a spectacular failureLook at the numbers on perfect strike and explain to me why it exists alongside the current state of the mace ***default*** attackThat's to say nothing of the support gem situation, half of which ask you to suck your own dick from behind to get a temporary buff that tops out at like 30% when you can get that straight up from gems like primal armament
>>548550541because we won't be playing as a femoid
>>548550592>Which was a spectacular failurethey hadn't even decided how they wanted evasion to work when 0.4 launched. it's going to take fucking years no matter what, hence the word "incrementally". we don't even fully know yet how much frictionless trade is going to powercreep the game (a lot) or what ggg will have to do about it (something, maybe, at some point, if data shows the game is so easy its affecting player retention).
POE2 CONFIRMED!!!!!! POE2 CONFIRMED!!!!!!!!!!!!
>>548551206>what ggg will have to do about it (something, maybe, at some point, if data shows the game is so easy its affecting player retention).massive loot nerfs for tradies and LE styled SSF mode
>>548551251SKYRIM 2!
>>548551206I don't understand how anyone can type this and not realize PoE2's trajectory is a straight line to "PoE1 but worse"
>>548551206>we don't even fully know yet how much frictionless trade is going to powercreep the gameExcept we can literally see how that works in [current league] and the answer is not at all because it doesn't change anything about the skill balance, which is big shit
>>548550541>sorc>for anythingNot played since 0.1, huh?

You know what's better?Last Epoch
>>548552192it doesn't affect you because you were trading and playing the endgame anyway. but the median player before poe2 would play the campaign, muck around in endgame for a bit and then quit, keeping them playing longer is the whole point of all of the differences between poe1 and 2.
>>548553507bro... poch fumbled. poch flopped.
POO 2 UNBEARABLE STENCH
>>548553679PATH OF EXCREMENT 2GAY ASS MAPPING EDITION
>>548553000it'll be either1) titan's generic bonuses make it at least as good as druid except for not getting blue life2) ggg make it so you effectively need druid ascendencies for wildshape to be worth using at all
>>548553593>the median player before poe2 would play the campaign, muck around in endgame for a bit and then quit, keeping them playing longer is the whole point of all of the differences between poe1 and 2Then those retards should put in an actual endgame and add a single build that's competitive with deadeye, async trade is such a non-factor in this it's ridiculous
The only highlight of this league was tyty turning tranny
>>548549523India
>>548553593what does that have to do with async trade? either way the average poe1 player goes far deeper into the endgame than the average poe2 player so i dont understand this post
>>548549523Jonatroon "Tub Shitter" Rogers
my honest opinion is that I don't think Keepers is the worst league in Path of Exile history and the bad retention is clearly a result of something else
>>548553986i think async will helped retain casuals a lot. but otherwise you're obviously correct. in particular they're not going to want to play deadeye every league just because muh divs/hour, even if everything is left one-buttony and the differences between viable builds is mostly a non-factor in how they play.
>>548554340PoE2 end game is unironically too RNGonly getting t16s by corrupting t15s is a piss take. Especially with how comparatively rare hitting the t16 corruption is.
>>548553507upvoted kind sir!
>>548554438i've never been so bored with a league. feels like they went a little below the minimum effort this time
I can't wait to wipe that smug smile off your fucking face when poe2 hits 1m concurrent
>>548554731
>>548554731>>548554889falseflag
Remember when the meta in Archnem was memory reading to see if there was a loot goblin, certainly that endgame was more interesting than Keepers and worthy of a higher retention
>>548554593Just make T15s harder rather than accomodating the power creep with endless new tiers
>>548554731he's delusional. get him to the infirmary
>>548554968meds now
Bros can I have a sanity check? Say I want to craft int stacker boots, I should:>acquire overquality warlock boots>spam essences for +int>fracture int (repeat from step 1 if I fail here)>spam essences for second and third suffix>lock suffixes>reroll harvest until good prefixesdoes that sound right about right? I've never done an endgame tier rares craft before. I should probably also slamming an influenced exalted orb somewhere? Before or after fracturing?
>an arpg with near infinite customization>/vg/ is a bunch of clearspeedtroons instead of making soulful buildswhy am I not surprised
>>548554340casuals aren't going to learn to craft and they aren't going to want to use external sites to trade, so ingame trade frees them from playing pseudo-SSF and makes endgame item progression feel more accessible. the poe1 playerbase stays in endgame for longer on average but its also less casual and smaller.
>>548555136I actually do think im the only one in this general that makes his own gimmick builds
>>548555073unless you're ssf I'd poebably check the market and try and buy a finished product or a fractured base. but your process seems fine. reforging for prefixes seems expensive. can't you brick the item that way if prefixes end up filled?
>>548554726poe1 leagues will probably get better once Neon isn't having to also design 30 poe2 bosses on a 4 month schedule.
>>548554020Is this fucking real...I just saw Quin pull up his X on stream...
>>548554731doomers post this completely unachievable shit and then screencap. ya nice gotcha...
>>548555429he's in the ironic cross dressing phase but definitely moving towards full blown tranny. rather quickly too.
>>548549523Genshin
>>548555003>>548554593yeah being able to roflstomp your way to t15s feels weird in what was originally meant to be a slower game.
>>548555429allie brainwashed him
>>548555785The game needs huge nerfs but the playerbase is going to throw a historic hissy fit if they do
>>548554731Screenshotted even though it won't touch the 300k melty
>>548555429its over
>>548514601>on the other hand, I don't want the game to be balanced around autoclockers and turbo buttonsAnon.. I have bad news for you.
>>548555394Can't you eldritch annull to guarantee a prefix slot?A fractured base would be a lot easier but wouldn't give me the best mods and base, with the tree shitting out decent rares anything lower than that isn't worth crafting
>>548555262this is what happens to gaming when zoombrains just google the meta picks because they lack imagination
>>548555949Because that probably means decapitating my favorite stuff while LA deadeye or whatever build is currently literally 80% of the playerbase gets a light tap on the wrist.
>>548555073getting good prefixes like that will be very hardfirst of all figure out if you want an abyss socket, its bis if you dont need the gem socketif yes, fracture the abyss socket and then kinda proceed as you described, although you probably want to reforge for t1 es and then unveil movespeed with veiled ex and craft the last prefixwithout an abyss socket it will be much easier if you fracture a prefix. essence already guarantees a suffix so you can do something like int essence until you hit 1 other good suffix, then lock suffixes and reforge for the 3rd suffix. then you have an item with 3 perfect suffixes and 1 prefix. at this point you can just veiled chaos to unveil movespeed and craft the last mod and youre done.
>>548556165you are right, forgot about eldritch annul. yeah, you're good to go I guess.
>>548556196I'm not sure poo2 has a single build that could not be made better by putting it on a deadeye
>>548555785>>548555949The best way to nerf players without causing a fit is to redesign the waystone system into something totally new. People expect to be able to clear T16s on the first weekend, but what about tier heroic-2 or tier Atziri XIII? The only reason we have the waystone tiers we do is because of PoE1 legacy, and even in PoE1 the waystone tiers haven't been super relevant since conquerors. Reset expectations with a whole new system that makes the higher tiers actually hard
>>548556810thats cause the endgame is so damn easy that extra proj and speed is pure upside for any build that actually hits an enemy
>>548556810going to be very funny when they nerf deadeye into the ground and all you metafags are left with -400 hours
>>548557062Its going to be even funnier when they nerf deadeye into the ground and after two weeks half the playerbase is playing deadeye anyway.
>>548557062>when they nerf deadeye into the groundThis is why we call pootooers tourists
Deadeye is a load bearing pillar
>>548557062deadeye could be a single 8 point node reading "5% increased movement speed" and it would still clear every other ascendency in the game
>>548556482You make a good point, an abyssal socket would be pretty strong. I'll have to check my mods and gems to decide if I can sacrifice something for oneSo you're saying I should fracture a prefix or suffix, then try to fix the other set of affixes (with either essense spam, harvest reforge or resonators), then veiled ex and benchcraft the last affix?
>>548556864whats weird is that the mapping progression in poe2 is even easier than in poe1mostly because map mods are easier
Keepers is 0.3% away from tying archnemesis, the league with the worst retention ever.
Praying the endgame rework is not littered with dark patterns
It's funny because Deadeye hasn't actually been the best ascendancy at any point in 2's lifespan, it's just retard-friendlyFor example, LL Lich is much stronger right now, Javazon was stronger in 0.poo, and herald invoker/gemling and sparksorc raped it in 0.1And yet we still had crying about Deadeye being "meta" for the first month of 0.1
>>548557898Deservedly so. This should be a wake-up call. The "friction" has to come down, it doesn't make the game more engaging, it makes it not fun.
>>548558079You are retarded.And slow.Which is worse than being retarded.
>>548557898if anything this chart kinda just proves that retention is meaningless, the game is still successful anyway
>>548558079Youre acting like deadeye doesnt clear as fast as the fastest clearing builds.It's literally a meta by definition.Just because other things are also meta doesnt mean its out meta'd because they all insta clear the game.
I thought poe2 wasn't supposed to be a speedrun autism game, what happened?
>>548558079https://www.twitch.tv/fubgun/clip/ShyEnthusiasticPuddingPeteZaroll-6_yStcQeULwfhrl1Ok dude
>>548558449>I thought poe2 wasn't supposed to be a speedrun autism gameSorry chuddie, it's for MEANINGFUL and FRICTIONAL and HARD combat.
>>548558449poo1ers threw a tantrum and Jonathan caved
>>548558449not enough nerfs
>>548558620HARD?
>>548558667But they already have poe1? Why do they want two of the same game?
>>548557614yeah. fracture on the side that you craft first is only for early progression items and rare / special mods>then veiled ex if you have a fractured prefix and your suffixes are done, you dont need veiled ex, you can just use veiled chaos since theres nothing to remove. like the item is 1 fractured prefix + 3 suffixes, you veiled chaos, now you have 1 fractured prefix + 1 unveiled prefix + 3 suffixes and then you craft the last one. with the abyss socket im actually not sure what the best way to craft it is, what i meant was >fracture abyss socket>finish suffixes>get t1 es prefix or whatever with reforge (painful)>lock suffixes, veiled ex and hope you keep es and unveil movespeed (extra painful)but actually it would be probably be easier to just do the prefixes first and use eldritch currency to get t1 es and then craft the last suffix. for what its worth, on poe.ninja theres roughly an even split on abyss socket boots between crafted prefix (meaning suffixes were done first) and crafted suffix (meaning prefixes were done first)
>>548558463I'm white so I can't click this link
>>548558079>dude deadeye isn't even meta, it only kills xesht in 0.75 seconds, my lich does it in 0.5>what the fuck do you mean "200% movement speed"
99-100s 1 month into 0.3>52% deadeye (rank 2, 6/10 of the top 10)>9% amazon (rank 1, 2/10 of top 10)>9% bm>7% lich>4% invoker>3% titan
>>548558858>just do the prefixes first and use eldritch currency to get t1 esmeant use eldirtch currency to get t1 intelligence of course. after your prefixes are done
how do all the poowunners talking about how Deadeye is broken in PoE 2 because it has movement speed not realize that it's because damage and survivability are irrelevant
>>548558995perfectly balanced :)
>>548558237We just removed trade friction and you got the worst league of all time because all your loot is worthless. But yes, let's make the game easier and give everyone more loot. 100x experience gain and 100x currency drops. Everyone plays private WoW servers like that, right? Healthy player populations that put official WoW to shame with its pathetic 1x drop rates.Why can't GGG see that just increasing the loot infinitely makes the game more successful? The proof is right here in this graph! *points at retention graph for 893rd time today*
>>548558667I too would memory hole 0.1 heralds if I was a poe 2 fan trying to keep my sanity
>>548558995thats an extremely telling statistic actually because levelling takes so fucking long in poo2this distribution clearly says that deadeyes are killing shit faster than everything else
>>548558449Nobody knows what Poo2 was supposed to be, including GGG
>>548558995Expect the same for 0.4 but with Druid at 2nd and at 7%
>>548559187refer to >>548559059
>>548550541bear will have 100% of mana gained as armour
>>5485591390.1 heralds would have been nerfed during the league if poo1 shitters didn't cry after the CoF and gas cloud nerfs on week1
>>548559059>Deadeye is broken in PoE 2 because it has movement speed not realize that it's because damage and survivability are irrelevantThis is mentioned literally every single time deadeye comes up, including multiple time ITTYou are embarrassing yourself.
>>548558858I understand, thank you. I'll have to play with the simulator to get a feel for it but at least I'm staring to understand the concept
>>548559334therefore what GGG should do is nerf all players and buff all mobs right
>>548559315>heralds would have been nerfed during the league if>lightning spear would have been nerfed if>constricting command would have been nerfed if>deadeye would have been nerfed if>my father would have loved me if lolololol
>>548559315Curious how PoE1 players are actually shaping PoE2... Why won't Jonathan listen to *his* own playerbase?
>>548559590>poe1 won't get eos'd if
>they made a low effort shit league and focused all their effort on 0.4 to get more players to convert from poe1 to poe2
>>548559543Sure, I really don't care if PoE 2 is a glacial slog with 2 usable builds, not like I'll be playing it lol
>>548559672poe2 eos is more likely than poe1 eos at this point
>>548559830Ok so you aren't admitting that damage and survivability is meaningless if you think only 2 builds are usable
>>548558380>proves that retention is meaninglessSo who do you suppose is buying the supporter packs when no ones playing? Next time you have a retard comment, keep it to yourself chief
>>548559796>Please stop noticing things
>>548559796that's not tinfoil, that's just objective reality
>>548559796i doubt that they actively want poe1 players to quit but its glaringly obvious that this league suffered because of poe2
poe2 will never rereach it's destined player numbers until they completely ignore all poo1 players and let poe2 be it's own thing
>>548560152in-league retention is meaningless, they clearly retain players league to league
It is an objective fact that GGG would've 123% dropped PoE1 if they weren't obligated to keep it alive. People memoryhold why Phrecia even came to be.
>>548511818Has she ever shown her pussy on steam?Or even just flash a boob?
>>548560152who the fuck buys supporter packs 3 months into a league? People buy packs in the prelaunch hype periodGGG probably makes most of their quarterly profits before anyone even gets to make a character on the new league. The live service game economy is completely fucked
>>548560082>so you aren't admitting that damage and survivability is meaninglessThe ceiling for both of these is far too low in endgame, so they are completely meaningless past a certain point. Buffing enemies to a point that makes these relevant at the top end bricks 90% of all player side options in the current iteration of the game.Granted this will all be over the heads of the D4 refugee retards playing the second game, who are only capable of thinking about balance in terms of 2 levers labeled "ATK" and "DEF"
>>548560627>Has she ever shown her pussy on steam?excuse me?
>>548560657<1 month in, retard
>>548560776Many Blood Mage, Invoker, and Titan builds do much more damage than Deadeye LA but they don't need the damage because everything falls over after being slightly grazed by one of a billion projectiles
>>548560657Less than 1 month into the league and 75% of the players have quit, yeah great business model genius
>>548561034That's literally what I'm saying you fucking retard holy shit did the 0.1 supporter packs include a piece of rebar to wedge in your frontal lobe or something why are you all like this
y'all don't actually think 75% lower peak ccu means that 75% of people quit, right? /poeg/ can't be this stupid
>>548560540You know they literally have perfect internal statistics on the % overlap between the two game playerbases and how much each group spends, right? I'm sure that analyzing their audience and figuring out who to cater to is exactly what GGG is trying to do. If they're catering to PoE1 players, it means they know something you don't.
>>548560897>>548561181Ok, who the fuck buys supporter packs 1 week into a league? 5 days? 3? Again, people buy packs before the league, or day 1 at the latest. Retention is irrelevant for supporter pack sales
>>548561459>y'all>dogshit post every time
aren't your perfect spectres supposed to be waiting for you in hideout now when they die? doesn't seem to be working and they're not on my desecrate either
how big is the difficulty gap from deli mirror (6-1 reward) 8-mod t16s to regular t17s?
>>548561516We knew 99% of all newcomers didn't make it to 0.2 the second they revealed abyss crafting
>>548561279>Buffing enemies to a point that makes these relevant at the top end bricks 90% of all player side optionsThis wouldn't happen
>>548561516It means poo1 players are pathetic whales. They can live off of catering to and maintaining a captive audience, blizzard proved this with WoW, but it doesn't mean they'll have a good game that reaches people outside of this small autistic circle like they had at release. This model always bleeds player trust in the long run and kills the company.
>>548560627What did they mean by this?
poopwun finna lost
If GGG just straight up buffed all enemy mob life by 1000%, it would fix meta diversity in PoE 2 instantly
>>548561516>I'm sure that analyzing their audience and figuring out who to cater to is exactly what GGG is trying to doFriction?Vision?Weight?Doors?Expedition?Archnemesis?
ARE YOU GUYS EXCITED FOR NEW LEAGUE UPDATE?I'M HARD AS HECK JUST LIKE MY IDOL TRI
>>548561832meant 6+1 reward
>>548561832Depends on the mods since some T17 mods can be irrelevant or avoided while some just make it unplayable.
>>548562110That wouldn't change anything because everyone would use the skills that did the most damage (like they already do)
>>548562110Specter bros our time is now
>drood teaser is the most successful teaser GGG has ever posted
>>548562149He missed saying tee em.
>>548562342{ they don't?
>>548561459it means the league is biggu shittu
Did they gut active block recently in Poe2?I used to be able to stack stun threshold and turtle up, but now I seem to get heavy stunned out of block very quickly and the double stun threshold in return for no rolling gives stun "chance" instead of stun threshold.>Rolling resets the timer for stun threshold replenishingI wonder if GGG realises this or if its a bug.
>>548562134Yes, it is actually important to retain some level of resistance. Difficulty. Friction. Call it what you will. The game is as popular as it is because it was designed by Chris instead of Reddit. If we took all your dogshit recommendations, we would be playing Cookie Clicker.
>>548562342LA does not do the most damage
>>548562648I didn't ask and I don't know that?
>>548561832100% delirious T17 bosses will kick your teeth in and your rewards will not be worth it because Delirium drops don't really scaleDelirium is not a good strategy to run in T17s. Play something that scales with the added quant and deli orb it
>>548562648>>548562485balances clear with damage Why would I play a shit skill that does a gorillion damage to one enemy when every map is you getting swarmed by 100 enemies
>>548562809because every map will have swarms with 1000% more life
>>548562882so you still want a skill that does damage to every monster on screen (and a lot off screen) so you can kill 100 monsters at once instead of getting swarmed
>>548562994>at onceyou will not be able to kill them faster than they can swarm you if you only rely on a low damage clear skill
What am I supposed to do with all the T16 map drops that I'm never gonna run? Doesn't seem feasible selling them all for <1c
>>548561932In what universe are you able to feel the difference between blood mage and zon crit but still able to kill a map boss on chaos caster
>>548563013>hanging brainsir this is a blue board
>>548562640>Either we make it pointless CBT or it turns into cookie clicker>There is simply no other wayYou could try just not ctrl+C ctrl+Ving diablo 2 and see where that gets you, Grim Dawn doesn't have this issue, but then again grim dawn doesn't need to jedi mindtrick players into buying MTX so it has a lot more freedom to make an actually fun game.
>>548561959Unlike the discerning PoE 2 gourmand, whose patience has been rewarded with uhumDruid ig (you will reroll deadeye by act 4)
>>548563143Obviously builds that already do >100m DPS will still be able to one shot bosses, it's just that builds that do <1m DPS won't also be able to one shot bosses
>>548563284Don't be so transphobic
>>548563119That's the beauty of async.You just price em all up and they sell, no intervention needed.
>>548562640Did you miss the entire discussion about how Poo2 is so easy that the meta revolves around movement speed? You are playing cookie clicker
>>548563395The crazy part is that the game's balance is so fucked up that it probably wouldn't even get that much worse if they put someone with your level of brainpower in charge of mob scaling
>>548562764>reading comprehension
>>548563615>builds that do <1m DPS won't also be able to one shot bosseswhats wrong with this

>>548557062Been through that already with mana spark and double herald monk. It hurts, but the memories of good times are with me
Anons are talking about how the game is too easy and everyone is playing deadeyes because its clearspeedmaxxing and why play anything else if all that matters is clear speed?That just doesn't really add up to me, warrior is always the poster child of this. The problem isn't even really necessarily that its too weak. The design of it is just not very fun. When they changed active block to work on slams that made made problem a lot better in that you can actually turtlemaxx, but the same patch absolutely gutted all the fun ways you actually build an active block character and its been the same story the whole way through. Every time players start doing something other than boneshatter, whatever it is gets nerfed. Perfect strike got gutted. Hammer of the gods got gutted. Magma barrier got gutted. To what end?

Tweaked my Atlas around, wanted Schizo Mirror and one of the two altars so I picked Eater of Worlds. Have Beyond on it and mostly otherwise just scarab drop chance. Is Endless Tide based? I've been killing the Beyond Bosses but they usually just drop me like a single tainted fusing. Unless you get points for t17s (which I haven't done any of), I think this is all the points I can have.

>>548569018I'm not very good at this game but I made a couple divs per run doing labs for gems. It was only offerings since my build was shit, extrapolating from that it seems like you'd probably get 5 or so divs per gift and I'm not sure how common the awakened gem font is. Maybe its too rare to make much of a difference.
>>548569130American
>>548569018Harvest + Einhar + whatever you like third makes decent enough cash. I prefer to do Schizo Mirror + Beyond since it looks cool and is a lot of fun and the tainted currency goes for an okay amount. So maybe likeSchizo Mirror + Beyond + Einhar if you just wanna throw a ton of beasts into your shop for 1c each.

I feel like everyone but me is disingenuous. There is an extremely obvious reason why Keepers has low retention. It only had a month before a PoE 2 league came out and people don't want to burn out.>thats not the reason, it's X and Yit's absolutely the reason, it's the most obvious reason. All of you are just pretending to be retarded for some sort of argumentative reason.

>>548538843nta but the nerfs to t17 mods also nerfed t16.5s which sucked but at least in mercs we were so overpowered it didn't matter; losing mercenary quant scaling on top of the nerfs just made it more apparent
>>548573012nah, pconc pathfinder or a slammer. slammer is probably 2 or 3 times better than pconc
>>548573076mercs should never have had quant scaling to begin with

>>548572513>>548572678>>548573076there are countless league mechanics that were shit and boring that people hated and leagues where loot was bad and leagues where both the mechanic was shit and the loot was bad. The retention is awful because the PoE 2 league is coming out ONE MONTH after the PoE 1 league.
>>548573169t. party play fagmercenaries counted as a player for scaling enemy health and only gave half the quant of another player, there's zero reason they shouldnt have scaled quant when they made every enemy twice as tanky. The reality is that party play is INSANELY powerful and mercenaries letting regular players access a mere fraction of party play's power just showed how strong it is, but the problem isn't with mercs

My current build is a SHIT bosser and I want to try something new, just haven't figured out what.

>>548572121its fine. not the best, not the worst. its a shield build so ehp is high, max hit not so much but you can easily sacrifice some damage to make it tankier if you want
>>548573436party play shouldn't increase quant either.The increased loot should be from clearing things faster, not just some arbitrary increase because you have a bot following you around with 5 auras active

>>548572676Atziri killed me with like 1% hp left (Apparently I was making a huge mistake and not afking when I walked back in so her stupid floor bombs wouldn't 1shot me). Otherwise, I was gonna face Uber Elder again but the fragments are a bit pricey so I may just grind out regular Elder/Shaper to try it later.

whats the pandemonium exploit
>>548572690Finished 40 a week ago, probably won't do that ever again.
>>548573443Hot take: the game is good. It's still just as good as it was in 2024. The problem is that we have fuckall new content since 2024 because the devs are off making a soulslike game.

>>548578356channeling skills in general are clunky to use besides cyclone and maybe winter orb (too bad WO does shit damage), and ones like flameblast that don't deal their payload until you stop channeling get you killed. putting it on totems is safer but doesn't help with the clunkiness, especially if you dislike totem-style gameplay it has too much shit you need to scale (damage, size, cast speed, pen, crit + potentially totem/ignite nodes) to feel good.
