Generally okay with it. The 0.3.1 change may be fine for people who felt like anything but peak juice was worthless, but to me it made the stagnant samey-ness of the endgame map more apparent

You fags cry about dark patterns but you couldn't come up with a good light pattern with a gun to your head. It's easy to criticize but difficult to create. Try coming up with someone better than the professionals before you talk shit online.

Readability, maybe. No reason not to make a custom font and meet it halfway, instead they just settled on that dogshit generic slop and it sticks out like a sore fucking thumb.

I'm sure whatever the actual reason they opted to use that dogshit would be completely infuriating and retarded knowing nuBlizzard.

I don't regularly corrupt things I don't think I can easily replace, like gems are cheap and easy to level for the most part (I wouldn't corrupt my Empower vs corrupting More Duration) but buying a new Iron Fortress or Crown, especially if they "poof" feels pricey and like a big risk.

What would I be looking for? I have this sitting around, I just usually prefer uniques where I can fit them
>Exalt Slam
Okay so THAT'S what slamming means. Thank you! Would it risk losing any of the current benefits of them, or changing them? Or just add on a new modifier for "free"?
My attack speed seems fine, but I figure that getting the benefit of 10+ extra max *and* the attack speed together was good
>just buy one
If this is about the Iron Fortress and Crown, I do have some money, I'm just sorta saving nebulously for the OSin since it's almost 700d for a corrupted one right now.

Get one with 21+% quality or settle with a 20% one if you want to. Throw some alts on it to see if any modifiers look interesting, I personally like instant regen on low life for panic heals.

Yes, it's just an additional mod. For clusters like that it's just to give any mod to the small ones and there should be like 3 or 4 that you hit. If you manage to get +Strength, that's another bonus to your build.

My guess is because it's a font that scales well to different UI sizes, can easily support different characters (e.g., cyrillic, chinkrunes), and probably works well with whatever "accessibility" features they have to let people tweak it for visibility
Harder to do those things with an inhouse font
It's still gay and lame though

i dont even know what to say to your retarded output

>>548579564
rf is far from free 40% more damage
first of all you still need considerable regen to counteract the degen from rf. if the character doesnt have good recovery outside of that regen, it also needs to have a lot extra so its life bar still goes up while rf ticks it down. thats something that only few caster builds have, especially es characters.
even if you can sustain through rf in isolation, it gets cucked by a ton of map mods. no regen or less recovery? obviously doesnt work. -max res? you take like 4x the damage, rf is bricked. degen puddles? you instantly die when you stand on them because you take rf damage on top of the degen and your recovery is disabled, which is particularly bad for low life characters as petrified blood only works against hits.

t. used petrified blood on penance brand a lot
>>
>>548583891
I took off the cluster from the bottom right and tried to slam it, told me it didn't have room for more mods. Tried using Alts on the flask and after like 2 it removed all of its modifiers except for the fracture so i had to hit it with an Augmentation, which it then immediately lost, so I got it to giving me immunity to poison. Too many orbs too fast for something like that.
>You sure aim high

I honestly do think it is bad for the game and I am someone who has used it every league since it was added. It just gives free shit too often. The thing is that the full town I feel like is fair in that it costs a lot of gold to run full tier 5 mappers, shippers, miners, farmers, etc. However, you can very easily just get tier 5 farmers and send out the 50M shipments or even the smaller mass shipments to Kalguur for decent divs.

In terms of big ticket items I got a lock from my mappers this league as well as a few uniques that were worth like 2-3 div. I've found numerous raw divs and literally every time I check a batch of maps I get like 2 voldo maps. It is 100% profit and over time is worth it, however i do agree it is a pain in the ass to empty them out.

unfortunately it is worth it.
i play ssf so i cant give you an exact number of expected divine value per hour you spend interacting with the mechanic but it sure as hell is more than you get from mapping in this league.

like the other anon said, valdos and raw divines are super common and theres a lot of smaller shit.
you get a lot of harvest juice including the cum juice which adds up to at least a divine every 36 maps.
you get random shit like exalts, blueprints, corpses, catalysts, oils, scarabs, chaos, embers + ichors, whatever. some random influenced items. a lot of maven chisels.
theres also a surprisingly high chance to get a big ticket item. i have gotten a lock myself and many people have gotten a mirror. its a real thing

i can recommend the full build cause ci is fun and herald stacking is fun, but it's probably around 2 mirrors worth of gear, and then maybe another 100 div of tattoos depending what herald tats are at now
and probably another 100-200 div to become corrupted blood immune on one of the jewels, or you could skip ff and just get a rare jewel in the third medium cluster at 99

Looked up a Paradoxica and I'm A LITTLE confused. Does it double the damage on my balls as well, or just the melee strike since it's hits with the weapon? Looking at the top one because good and the second one because Accuracy Rating that might help with trying to get that one node that gives me more damage when I have big accuracy.

you can click a few provisioning wombgifts and get way better boots, gloves and wand or alternatively you can buy those from the trade site. life rolls are important and trivial to get
make sure to go for armor es hybrid gear, not pure es, armor is useful if you still have life as half of your pool
the chest is so terrible i would just try again and use a sacred chainmail this time
make a real shield, its very easy and not expensive, the guide you linked explicitly describes how to do it
if you dont want to get red nightmare thats fine, you can cap block with jewels. allocate as the mountain instead of nothing for +12% attack block and +3% max block, you want to get 78/78 block so you arent paper anymore
dont use rumis thats just bad, cap the block properly
idk whats going on with your passive tree but click the jewel nodes and put some jewels in there. dont take the max spell block mastery if your spell block isnt capped
get a phys light of meaning instead of crit

your mageblood isnt character bound by the way, you can just unequip it on one character and move it to the other one. theres no need to gimp yourself

https://pobb.in/jWYjqMZKGr2k
I put it back into PoB and my AVERAGE BALL WEIGHT is up to 2m. I've done it. I was able to also remove Hard Knocks and put it back into +1 max endurance charges.

60% more damage.
Your low end on alberons is 1.
Outright replacing void manip gives you 20% more
>>
Reading the forums and people are talking about nerfing +skill level to PoE 2 gear. Reduce it by on each individual piece of gear.
I feel like that would make it more important to have.
Instead they should just make it so you can only have say 5 skill levels on gear and anything above doesn't add more. That way you can meet the requirement multiple ways rather then going from +19 to +10 but those +10 still being required. If it was a flat +5 you could get it via gloves + amulet, or simply on your weapon. Or allow +3 rolls on rings and both rings (currently +2).

yeah? what about it
even with your weird system of a low level cap there will always be best in slot mods for a given archetype
if you make added skill levels a bad amulet mod then casters would get it on gloves instead and you have the same situation where now gloves without + levels are bad and waiting to be replaced

Giving tripfags attention good or bad is the same thing as giving them the worlds best blowjob. You are feeding the beast and making it fat. You also know this but you crave recognition from anyone who stands out.
Tripfags ironically have more power than even the most stand out posters on a normal forum. Their existence goes against everything 4chan stands for but that uniqueness gives them an irresistible attraction.
You hate them but you NEED to react to them to feed your own desire to stand out. It's a sick game you both play and it hurts us all in the end but no general has ever been able to resist their siren song so don't feel too bad about it.

PoE2's initial launch wouldn't have felt so rushed had they not decided to overhaul so many foundational systems that every skill, enemy, and stat value were balanced around.
Think about it. At some point between Exilecon 2023 and the biffed "Summer 2025" launch date, they decided (while game designers are midst developing acts) to remove utility flasks, add runes, add charms, and remove every source of life from the tree, among other things.
It's a wonder the game was even playable. We're 3 iterations of balance in and ES (life forma de azul) is still scaling to uncontrollable numbers, red health feels inadequate, and the people can't figure out if Armour is OP or dogshit.
I'm not saying I would rather have PoE1 balance in 2, but man I cannot figure out why they decided so late in development to redo their entire method of thinking around character balance.

>>548620962
I think Chris stepped away much longer ago than anyone thinks. The game has been shaped by the will of the community for several years now, against Chris' dream of making a clunky D2 clone that everyone loves for its personality.
The community often wanted close to the opposite of what Chris wanted for the game, and since Chris has uber awakened Autism he took it personally. In a lot of ways, Chris' PoE was a physical extension of himself, and playing it felt like massaging his bald head.

This time he will show them. He'll make his own Diablo, with blackjack and hookers.
Once the people experience real gritty dark fantasy, with visceral hardcore action gameplay, his genius will finally be recognized. GGG will collapse, Blizzard will retreat from the ARPG market, GD and LE devs will publically praise Light Pattern Games. Jonathan will quietly sit in his tub and slit his wrists. Tencent will offer Chris a trillion dollar deal and he will reject it.

Or something along these lines. Chris is the kind of idea guy who spends way too much effort jerking his concepts off and way too little playtesting. It wasn't bad design, the players just don't see the Vision™

effort isn't impact. The campaign you do once and never think about again until you're forced to do it on another character, ascendancies completely redefined build making for the game ever since

the impact from 2.0 to 2.2 wasn't that huge. in most cases it just felt like you were getting a free unique, like ci builds not needing eye of chayula.

that's a misconception, at least for poe1
the majority of returning players did the campaign, play endgame for a bit then quit. that leaves what you think is the core playerbase as the only people still playing, creating the confirmation bias which led to you reaching your conclusion.
having a beefier (and more item-dependent) campaign is a large part of why poe2 has better retention than poe1. just stating the facts.

Who the hell comes back to PoE league after league after league to play the campaign? Are you seriously suggesting that the core playerbase of the game just plays through the same campaign 4 times a year every year for a decade?

keeping more people playing for longer leads to more profits for ggg. the campaign helps do that so you're just a wrong person who is wrong, and ggg is right to ignore you and players like ben who just want to run Cemetary endlessly because its the max div/hr and only care about that "gameplay".

1) the differences of poe2 v poe1 were designed to increase retention. a large part of doing that is making the campaign better and more meaningful. your feelings about its unimportance are not representive of most players.
2) you coined the phrase "core playerbase" like its an elite club because that's how you see yourself, its not relevant to why ggg does one thing not another.

Enkindling orb. Make sure to roll the right one and roll it good. It's very wasteful to have shit rolls on MB flasks.

I'll just have to settle for being a LITTLE slower.
So just use Enkindling Orbs and try to pull 70% Increased + No Charges Gained. I think I can manage that!

I’m a new player to poe2 and the game is already overly complicated and convoluted.

>>548642614
Yeah, and they show that most people who start a league drop it early. This is consistent with literally every game out there and does not show what you think it shows.
For one, competing the campaign normally nets you multiple challenges, so according to this ~80% of the people who started the league didn't even finish half the campaign
For two, this only includes people with at least 1 challenge. An unknown number of people didn't even reach 1 challenge
According to your own numbers, almost everyone who starts a league doesn't even reach act 5. How did fall of oriath affect those people? Or do you understand that these statistics are fucking worthless because it's a universal truth that most people who start a game never finish it for one reason or another?

took like 4 orbs, only got 69 but funny sex number and it being enough to put me at above 100% resist on effects and pretty high Chaos Res. I doubt the 1% on the increased effect is gonna make a difference, especially not enough to justify rolling potentially dozens of additional times.

It's trivial to get immunity to all ele ailments with Stormshroud/Ancestral vision when you have enchanted flasks and the big ultraboosted avoid suffix/spell suppression from Quartz..

you don't understand the discussion.
spirits (as extra content) is only in-map, ggg made them bad on release because they were afraid players would find a strat that stacked them predictably with something else.
actual league content doesn't have to worry about that as much because the encounters in-map aren't "open" and the instanced parts are completely separate. so abyss was rippy and rewarding on release and vaal will be too.

>Melding of the Flesh looks REALLY sketchy though, is it good?
It's very good, you take a small penalty and in return you get very efficient max res gains. It's a no-brainer for mageblood chars.

>Apparently one with the best rolls is like 21d
You don't have to get the best rolls, especially on the -resistances (cuz you can just get big res from mageblooded Bismuth). -4% max res (you want the minimum amount of minus max res) are only like 200c on softcore. The other roll is a lot less important as you can just find resists in various places like flask, gear suffixes, cluster jewels etc.

Okay that makes sense. He also gave me a bit of a breakdown of the "eventual" stuff I should be going for. A "sublime" jewel with Purity of Fire, max fire res, multiple things that turn cold/lightning into fire, etc. No idea how all that works, but for now I have to get more currency before I think too hard about it.

>>
>>548645598
>A "sublime" jewel with Purity of Fire
That costs 2 mirrors so it might be rough to farm without benefactors. You should focus on closer upgrades for the time being.
>>
I just hope 0.4 improves mapping. I really enjoyed 0.3 but once I got to T15s, I just ended up quitting since there wasn't really anything to work towards like with Atlas completion and Exarch/Eater/Shaper back when I played POE1.
The infinite explorable Atlas idea is alright but there needs to be more unique stuff to find and more weird unique bosses only in the Atlas.

>>548645703
We're definitely getting Incursion and Delve.
>>
>>548645815
Yeah that's what I'm thinking. I might try another Simulacrum after I get enough shards to see if I can make it through this time with the Amethyst Flask. I'm feeling significantly more powerful now, even if I still sometimes die out of nowhere.

the itemization of everything that can (reasonably) be itemized, and customization of them via crafting, were built into the design of poe from its inception. in addition to fighting (or being intended to fight) problems with gold-based systems like inflation, clear item values, and clear time investments for target purchases, currency items explicitly exist to be useful in crafting. chris's "success stories" of currency items from poe's alpha are about their usefulness in crafting.
his problem with runewords in d2 is that dropping a really nice rare weapon meant a lot less when you could eventually just make a silence, which is funny firstly because it isn't exclusive to crafted items (it also applies to good uniques, which he ALSO has a problem with in diablo 2, specifically mentioning unique elites), and secondly because that's the entire point of poe. sure, you're not making a (mostly) fixed item like a silence or an enigma, but you're meant to use currency to improve your character, and the way you do that is by creating items

While I get it very good QoL for many builds, a lot of it you don't really "feel", it's like having steelskin/automate set-up.
They don't need to be build enabling because they'll be gone next league, but calling them crazy interactions is going a bit far in my opinion. They are nice, but not game-changers, and that's fine, but also boring.

>>548675169
Maven isn't understood to be "endgame", particularly if it's not even uber.
That said onemanaleft has already figured out how to make unkillable AGs like 2 years ago so anon who told you that you can't keep them alive wasn't entirely right either.

I'm telling you how it is. People kill Maven day 1, with no fancy items whatsoever. Maven is nowhere near the hardest content the game has.

>>548677759
There's no reason to relativist what "endgame" is based on player skill.
"Beginner" progression bosses are only a part of the endgame if your definition of "endgame" is so broad it includes everything after the campaign. If someone told you your AG would die in endgame, he probably didn't mean t16 maps.
>>
>>548674785
I played a CWS setup back in Affliction, the build is probably different now but back then it was already pretty immortal with max end charges, I doubt that build could feel more immortal, because even having 10 end charges and 50% more regen, over already infinite EHP seems redundant.
And, AGAIN, nothing build changing, just ever so slightly more powerful.
>>
>>548678246
everything beyond normal pinnacle is not endgame, its not even game, its aspirational irrational bullshit that cut the number of viable builds by factors
to be playing and aiming for that content is actually making for less game, not more, cause you are forced to simply dismiss majority build ideas as "not gonna cut it in t17+"
