Was a step away from having a meltie.
First character of the league dies to some weird bug in campaign where lava boss with the monkey hammer quest item, game lagged and paused automatically and the lava kept moving.
Whatever stuff happens.
Lose my next character at lvl 90 to the architect. The stuff that flies around and hits the ground do so, game pauses, cogwheels come up, hear a distorted death sound, game unpauses Architect is in middle of room and I'm on floor dead. Not sure I've ever actually been this ass hurt with a video game before lol.

>>
>>550937948
let's be realistic: melee can never be good or on par with ranged in a game like this. no dev has ever gotten it right, and it always has been inferior since the dawn of ARPGs. If there was a fix then there would have been a fix.

I didn't say I wanted to fight white monsters for that long it's just that people want to fight some things up close and personal and not smash the ground in their general direction
White monsters would be going flying like Sauron was thrashing the last alliance or something like that.
But if you explode when something looks in your general direction or you are just waving your weapon menacingly and stuff dies it's not melee...

Started to play blind with druid, made a werewolf ice and been improving every hour played. So far about 80 hours played (most at weekend, but during lunch time Im connecting remotely with steam link to my pc from work using my phone s24 ultra with a regular game pad and cleaning 2-5 maps t15).

Almost crafted my entire gear, getting lots of currency and just beated arbiter just once, still mising some other fights, but im on my way. Totally focused on abyss + breach (skipping delirium yet, since it is a bit hard yet, but my plan is to reach t16 with deli maps in a few days more).

After the vaal temple patch, I have been doing the temple from time to time and getting really good rewards and currency. Also my shop market is moving a lot, Im selling lots of items. Cant wait to try some other builds with druid in a few weeks more or try the new sorcerers ascendancy.

Feel like the progression from early to mid game is really nice and the end game is kind boring, but it is on a acceptable spot. Cant wait next season to see all endgame rework.

Good job GGG team!
>>
>>550938569
that's what i am trying to say: chris knows that bringing bad blood into a relationship like that won't do no good so he isn't gonna shit on them publically. he's even going out of his way to make them look good.
the brown monkey won't understand being corteous like that. but we all know chris knew in 2019 that doing to poo2 what they somehow did would mean it's gonna have a rough time.

Lepoch somehow managed to make literally every archetype (mage, ranger, rogue, shaman, warrior) into a good melee classes.

I brought this up last thread but the current atlas is still causing problems with consoles and Chinese sentiment to it is less then favorable for a lot. poeg likes to talk about poor people and brown people but GGG isn't going to lose mtx sales and shit over a the current atlas map (not trees.) If peoples game crashes and stutters once they done so many maps they will have to fix it or change it if they want to keep those people around/coming back.
>>
>>550940760
one could argue that you chase eagon maps there. also, you do interact with it:
scrying
favouriting
getting neighbouring drops
>>
>>550940760
the infinite atlas is just dogshit and it gets worse the more you play
without towers you can technically save maps for specific strats, for example you only do ritual in open maps to maximize tribute
but its extremely tedious because 1 year after release, theres still no search function
what are you going to do, put a fucking bookmark on every open map that you choose to save for later? the bookmarks that are capped at 16 for some ungodly reason?

there are some good ideas and i get what they were trying to do, but in its current state it just isnt fun and no amount of adding shit to the world map like deadly bosses will fix it
separating map layout selection from the infinite atlas would be a good start if jonathan can manage to swallow his ego
>>
>>550941198
>memory chains are the only mechanic that actually interact with the atlas
>they are fucking terrible and nobody likes them
theres a lot to be learned here if one is willing
>>
>>550940760
how exactly do you interact with the endless atlas? all you do is select the next map you go to, but there is no influencing it, it's just a beautified delve map with way less usability than the actual delve map.
>>
its almost like... the implementation isnt finished yet...
>>
endless atlas being 3d has zero advantage over a 2d atlas that behaves the same.
it's just a waste of resources to make it look pretty in trailers and screenshots, not an actual gameplay enhancement.
this is a theme with anything in poop2

Here's my endgame suggestion

>all maps are unlocked from the beginning but are relatively tiered
>still have the atlas passive tree but also includes passives that alter how the roguelike atlas generates (more paths, more elites, less maps etc)
>'elite maps' that have innate buffs to bosses or other mechanics
>at the end of map chain there's a pseudo pinnacle boss, beating the boss gives you a waystone that upgrades the roguelike atlas
>after you beat 4 map chains (lets say 8 maps x 4 levels) you fight a pinnacle boss
>ripping a map kills that path of the roguelike atlas and if you have no other paths it bricks the whole atlas causing you to start again
hire me GGG yeah its just atlas sanctum but i totally invented sanctum to begin with

remove the endless atlas. add a map of the world. the world is suffering under different levels of corruption.
say the artic is super corrupted or you just like the artic maps. go there and everytime you complete a map you have the option to continue going. this increases the modifiers on your map/waystones increasing with each consecutive completed map. if you get bored of the biome then your consecutive completed maps has increased the corruption in the rest of the world so it won't be the same level of increased modifiers as if you stayed in the artic biome but you won't be starting from scratch.
fail a map and it resets.
saves on the current mess. rewards success. allows people to play in preferred graphical areas. allows them to have some target farming for uniques and items since they could make them only drop from certain biomes or more likely to.

having people move around the atlas has always been something they wanted players to do, from the very beginning.
even now they force you to run every map on the atlas at least once to fill out your atlas passive skill tree.

I know the OP is kinda a shitpost and all, but is Diablo 2 actually any fun/good? I never played it growing up because I was a console guy until I was around 18. Had Diablo 1 on the Ps1 and I still remember The Butcher, being confused by the identification system, and that's about it.

Diablo 2 is worth a playthrough if only to see the foundation of almost all modern ARPG's

Play a sorc, it's probably the strongest class by default without massive investment, and can also teleport without any gimmicks.

D2 is pretty fun but you might not like it without nostalgia fueling your playthrough.
Project Diablo 2 legitimately has better itemization than any ARPG on the market. At every point of the game, you can find things that are exciting. Something PoE1/2/Grim Dawn/LE all fail at spectacularly at some point in your character's progrssion.

This type of atlast mogs the hell out of that fragmented shit Poop2 has.
It is much more clean, effective and easy to digest.
I thought GGG were aiming to make the game more approachable and simple for broad audience, not make it the same pile of UI and mechanical shit on top of each other.
>>
>>550942831
>Grim Dawn
Are you kidding me?
I still regularly find items on new characters in just about every zone which I have both never seen before and end up trying to use because they're cool.
Like I don't know, maybe my idea of cool items is just different to other players' but I find grim dawn's monster infrequents and smorgasboard of epics and legendaries to be absolutely sick. My biggest issue with itemization in grim dawn is the hard limit on shared stash tabs. I have literally seven tabs of shit I've picked up that I want to try using, that I never use because whenever I start a new character I end up finding MORE shit that I want to use and never get to use the stuff I stashed.

Yeah, I always cite MIs as the one good idea that Grim Dawn has that should have been used elsewhere. Too bad the actual game feels like complete ass to play.

I'm not really going argue with you on that because the first act does look really bad with how everything is covered in vaseline.
HOWEVER it gets a lot better after the first act, and some of the areas in the expansions in particular were breathtaking.
I'm not sure how well this comes out in a screenshot, since seeing the light beams filtering down through the chasm as you descend was really what made it.

Also as far as gameplay, I've been playing with dpyes for WASD for long enough that I can't remember what it feels like without it, but with that taken for granted I find the gameplay to be way better than any of the competitors. The only one with better combat was victor vran and that's sort of apples to oranges.

Oh wait I just realised you're probably not complaining about the horrible slick shine on anything with the molasses comment but instead the movement speed.
There's a hard cap on 135% MS that you might be referring to but you've got movement skills out the wazoo and areas are actually interesting instead of a meaningless mishmash of arbitrary tiles so while even jacked up movement speed in poe1/2 feels slow, in grim dawn 135% feels like plenty because shit is just generally closer together.

How do I progress in SSF? I actually love to have to do every mechanic to aim for specific items like time lost jewels or bosses for specific uniques, reminds me of D2 days. Whats the best mechanic to focus early on? I thought abyssal cause of desecrated craft + essences. Essence in atlas is good enough but abyssal just randomly oneshots me, I assume I'm missing Chaos res. Is Expedition good early on to farm recombinator mats?
Also, is this the general route for SSF equipiing.
>pick up all bases with minilvl of my wanted mods
>trans + augment them
>reforge 3 into 1 if not mod hit
>recomb if mod hit
>essence
>desecrate (force suffix or affix)
>3 exalts
>1-3 perfect essence
So far I'm stuck at recombinating stuff, after doing 3 whole quad stash full of bases I got 0 items that I could have continued to craft, is this not the SSF way?

Also, whats the best stash configuartion for ssf? I just bought my last tabs. pic related

Honestly, try it with dpyes so you can use WASD. Like I said, I've been using it for so long I can't remember what it feels like without it. But with it the combat feels great. I think the only thing that annoys me is that although it has a dedicated "command minions" thing, its kind of jank where commanding to move and commanding to attack are sort of programmed separately, so if you command you minions to move ahead of you then command them to attack something, they wont aggro on the target until they reach the last location you pinged them to move to. I wish they'd improve that bit in particular.

Your pulse quickens
The Eternal impure
With bloodlust empowered
Our Ezomyr endured
But soon all were devoured
In unending war
Death waited at the door
Then hour by hour.. Men fell as summer soured

You are hunted
Fang, tooth and claw
Tortured under the moon
The pack suffered but endured
And howled now in tune
No tales were told
None new, none old
And their endless hunger... Grew ever stronger

As night falls
Winter's chill
Sought the unworthy
Through an endless night
They wither and tarry
Forsaken frosts
As cold as death
Of Beira's misery... The pack won't forget

The air grows colder
Agnar the Runed
Agnar the Impaler
As swift as death
And imbued by the moon
Cursed or gifted
Branded and afflicted
Your veins soon chilled... Agnar shall slay again

dont bother with the reforging, unless its a relatively rare base, start picking up items on the basis of single high value affixes rather than entirety of the item being good -> stash, recomb with a suitable pair, continue crafting
dont forget about fracture orbs existing either, if you hit a high value fracture (high tier spirit on chest, t1 +skills on an ammy, etc), you can annul down to the fractured mod and one random affix and then continually use chaos orbs to hit a second modifier (likely a second prefix or a second suffix), then finish the entire side somehow (essence? desecrate? etc), which frees you up to continue SAFELY working on the remaining side (the non-filled prefixes/suffixes), which will mostly require omens of whittling and a like

>>
>>550945720
thanks I'll look into that
for ilvl whats the usual cutoff? I'm browsing modifiers at the moment and saw some items need ivlvl 82 like boots for example for biggest movement speed. is it feasable in ssf to only look for that? How do I even get ilvl 82? I know irridated gives me +1, but corruption on maps was removed, no?
>>
>>550945898
pretty much the same way you make most items in poe1.
>>
>>550945996
What build are you? The general trend on a first char is to get your MF to at least 100 and either run pits in a1 if you can't get to a4, chaos sanctuary if you can and just farm a bit for drops. Without knowing what class you're playing though, it's hard to give much clearer advice.

Poe2 is so ass it's unreal.

how else?
I just started with ssf this league because trade always makes me quit 1 week in, I can jsut buy everything to beat everything with 5 divines and then its just divines/hr grind, feels more like a job then
I had to farm a uncut spirit level 14 earlier and trying to find the best low level zone/route and that was more fun than any endgame i did in trade league.

https://poe2db.tw/us/Modifiers - this is the reference manual for crafting basically
i wouldnt try crafting best in slot items right out of the gate, just try to get upgrades along the way (its way easier to hit recombs with lower mod tiers too) and later work on t1 projects and yeah - you can farm ilvl 82/83 bases in SSF, just like in trade, irradiated is +1 area level, t16 waystones, abyssal depths have +1 to area level, magic mobs drop items with ilvl equal to area level + 1, rares and uniques with ilvl equal to area level + 2, so you can get ilvl 82 bases in areas of level 80

shop for a +3 holy bolt scepter, socket it with larzuk quest and neophyte it
lore helm and spirit shield will give you +2 for the holy bolt level 25 breakpoint, which gives you 3 proj
Since FoH is a synergy, this shouldn't be too much of a shift from your current build and is more than powerful enough to get you to chaos sanctuary farming.

Why are you intentionally gimping yourself this way? Shred is designed as a low damage fast attack builder of ice fragments, which are the way it creates its damage primarily. The 'power budget' for shred is baked into ice fragments.

Nothing in werewolf has anything to do with 'full phys', and gives no indication of being 'full phys' friendly or oriented. So that's pretty weird that its what you are going for. I just want to understand your thinking, because its really bizarre.

Then I looked at the other werewolf skills, like rend, pounce + cross slash, all of which work together pretty well with support gems
Decided I wanted to play titan and there are a fuckton of good passive nodes in the area for phys and shapeshift

Pic rel is the tree, I'm likely cutting the bottom part and going further top left to more shapeshift nodes because those are nutty with titan

Rend clears all the trash pretty well and pounce + cross slash is nice single target esp with savage fury up

Currently doing the last intermission + about to get third ascend. It's nothing insane but fun enough.

i play titan werewolf with 30,000 armour. so much of cold werewolf's damage comes from rage+bhatair's assault lineage gem and bhatair's forces you into freeze. the crystals are nice but not the real important part.

I get why it has to be like that in a trade environment, but I do wish the game was a little bit more balanced around SSF sometimes

is leech good yet on melee characters?
probably only if you can get the leech not removing on overflow passive node

also do the leech nodes work like in PoE 1 where they give me leech themselves or do I need a separate source of leech through like a rune and those only enhance the effect?

There's no leech on the tree iirc, only modifiers to leech rate or leech amount (I don't remember). You have to supply your own base leech %.

Wolf is extremely strong, but easy to misunderstand at first if you came from wyvern or bear. You clear with lunar assault and herald of ice, pounce/shred a bit on rares if needed.

It's 90% a 1 button build while clearing maps, just spam lunar assault to keep the screen frozen.


- Take "Tribal Fury" keystone, it turns all your strikes into aoe, which is critical for clearspeed.
- Use freeze duration and ancestral call on lunar assault
- Use freezing mark on pounce for more freeze buildup on rares/bosses
- Use cross slash to detonate your ice shards from shred on bosses/rares on your own terms
- Use a weapon swap passive tree for your attack skills and your warcrys (lunar blessing / howl) for extreme reduced cooldown, and also fast usage speed
- Keep lunar blessing up while clearing, ideally empowered by a full rage bar for duration
- Use frenzy as a cooldown for content/bosses
- Use wolf pack summon with loyalty+meat shield+mana return for extra tank (not strictly necessary, but +10% reduction in damage on hits is big)

Someone else never did get into Poe1 but has a blast with Poe2?

I played PoE 1 last time in 2019, did bring a character into endgame, did maps until last t15 or something and never touched it ever again.

I don't know what it was but it just didn't felt good to play for me.

With PoE 2 I just can't stop playing since 0.1, how smooth moving feels, the gem system, sound design, how good it feels to kill stuff, like enemies feel like you really hit them, the gameplay has just more crunsh or something.

I don't remember everything from my PoE 1 time but there where a few reasons why I never touched it again after one character and 140 hours.

I know the endgame in PoE 2 isn't done or perfect but for me its enough to put 100-300 hours into it per season which is more than enough desu.

I just looked at the charts for 0.4.1 and let me tell you, it is a horror show. A total disaster. The players are leaving in numbers like nobody has ever seen. They’re running away! We had a massive audience, a beautiful audience, and now? It’s empty. It’s like a ghost town. The retention is very, very soft. Probably the softest in the history of the franchise. It couldn’t keep them interested for even a weekend. It was a flop, it finished way too early, and everyone left feeling very unsatisfied and very bored.

But we are looking at 0.5 and I have hope. I have big hope, though we have to be careful. The developers tell me it’s going to be huge. They say it’s going to be a very thick, very heavy update that stays firm. We need it to be long. We need it to have the stamina to last us all the way to 2029. Can you believe that? 2029! They want us to wait years for the big 1.0 finish. That is a very long time to keep things up.

If 0.5 isn't massive, if it doesn't really penetrate the market and give the people that big, bursting excitement they're looking for, we’re in big trouble. We need loot exploding everywhere. We need the endgame to be hard and deep. I want to believe 0.5 can get the job done, but after seeing how quickly 0.4.1 went limp, I’m watching very closely. We’re going to try to make it great, but it’s going to be a very long road to the final climax in 2029.

lunar assault has some nice freeze but it barely does any damage. I played wolf 1-85 and it was mostly nice but while mapping my damage and clearing relied on lunar blessing that was annoying as fuck to keep up even with 60+ rage and skill duration nodes. i died multiple times recasting the fucking buff because you have to stop in place. also it's extremely mana hungry for no good reason.
swapped to wyvern and im not going back. might try bear at some other point however.

You don't need to stop in place to use lunar blessing, you can cancel out of it instantly with dodge. Savage fury unfortunately can't be cancelled, so that's why I save it for a pre-boss buff or pre content opening.
I clear juiced T16 maps with 6l lunar assault. It's more than fine coupled with herald of ice. It detonates the entire screen.

People need to experiment more before they write stuff off.

Hey fellas its been a day or so since my last update. The warnings you all gave me were right. Rudja was an absolute menace to face with my hammer and shield build. Once I would get her down to around 30% health, she would charge at me and I would die instantly. It took me like 5 tries to even begin to understand what was happening here. The next few fights I tried raising my shield to keep her away but alas that failed. Finally, after going through a few forum posts, it seemed just running away was the best option. Well, these old man hands are experts at changing diapers but not so much at being able to sprint away from this boss. I kept running into the arena walls and almost gave up until I remembered I couldn’t let my wife down. She booked me this hotel for the entire weekend, and I would be heartbroken if I returned home with only one boss kill under my belt. So, I locked in and after a few more hours I finally bested her. Going to take an hour or so break to catch up on the game (GO COWBOYS), and then it’s back to the grind.

I was playing as a 1handed maze + shield, worrior 2 levels above the zoned, 35+ fire resist.

I welcome the challenge and don't mind I'm to die a couple of times. But this fight was brutal. She has two abilities that one shot almost any meele character and they don't have such a long signal time. I had to do a bit of farming and spend all my money at the vendors. I made it eventually, but I felt like a hard grind.

There are several ways to nerv her, I just hope GGG does any of them. After all, she is not an optional boss.

>>
>>550966270
Just spend the div and buy a carry. Everybody with a brain does it. Even if you're giga ultra plep poorfag levels you should make 6div and hour, that means it will take you 10 minutes to pay for it, which is less than it would take to run it.

>>
>>550966245
complex and deep character building and crafting systems would probably benefits a soulslike. "engaging" gameplay does not benefit an arpg lootgrinder thoeverbeit. rather, I'm fine with optional pineapple bosses being "engaging" but no mandatory progression content or content you're meant to grind should force you to pay attention to it, because that's just obnoxious and makes people want to quit the game forever. I groan with existential ennui every time I have to fight act bosses in the poe 2 campaign, especially on league start but even on subsequent characters because the game goes out of its way to gate your power and force "engagement" and is severely lacking in leveling gear to help you skip those arbitrary gates.

Can you blame him? Shit sucks if you aren't burnt out halfway through the campaign you're just a masochist.

On the higher end you can drop a raw divine orb every map. It's normal for juicers to make upwards of 30div and hour. On the low end you need only 160 breach splinters to convert them into a div, and with 3 breach tablets you should be getting ~30-50 per map even on a weak build, that's a div every 3 maps, even if you ignore all other loot. Seriously, if you are making less than like 10 divs and hour either your build is broken or your farming in non-sensical. Feel free to ask for help.

Very important kernel of advice, the large majority of players here and on reddit are absolute shitters who won't know shit about anything. They say builds don't work and there's no loot, but they are just retards.

Your goal isn't loot right now, it's to move to t15 and finish your atlas. Farming before that is extremely inefficient and a complete waste of time.

I bought something in the shop once. Instantly regretted it and felt shame. I'm sorry for perpetrating a terrible system of oppression.
>>
Stopped playing PoE2 after first couple months. The general feeling i got back then was that it actively hated players. Like, it was designed to twist player's balls and make experience as unsatisfying as possible.
Year later am thinking to give 0.4 a try.
Will i feel the same now, three patches later?

yes, your player power is purposely gimped and gated through the acts, e.g. gems and supports tied to area level, in order to make the bosses "engaging", which is fine if you're only ever going to play the campaign once in your life, but on repeated leagues and even characters within a league it feels like gaped asshole.

Have you tried not being bad at the game? If you are struggling on campaign bosses after your first playthrough no amount of twink gear is going to help you.

you correctly identified GGG's main design principle, and no, it has not changed
>>
>>550976275
It's called arbitrage trading.

I look the the div/chaos exchange rate, pick a high value item, and check its exchange rate to divs and then calculate how much that is in chaos.

During that time ancient jaws were actually worth ~180 chaos. That's why ever single one I buy in the 15X range in essentially half a div of pure profit, which I cash out when I sell the jaws for divs. Then I cash out into chaos and do it again. The more cash I got to play with the bigger the returns.

Profits can swing a lot and you can also fuck yourself over, but last league I managed to make 600div on one day with this shit.

the game itself imposing limits on player power is not a skill issue. being able to kill things is not the issue in the first place. the fact that it takes 48 hours of pure slogging to finish the campaign even when using what laughably passes as twink gear in poe 2 is the issue.

>>550979142
for me last league it was bulk flipping glassblowers into exalts back and forth. basically doubling your profit over and over until the bulk was too high to sustain with gold. I "only" made 200d a day but could have made more if I discordcucked some castaway rotations on trannytrove, which I just wasn't interested in doing.

You always need to resolve trades to divs or other high value items, specifically to cut down on gold costs. This is the entire reason I do this on a div/chaos basis, rather than the far more liquid exalt market.

It took me 24, i think i cleared act 1 in like an hour and then completely lost interest and just sort of meandered through the acts while watching shows.
game is so pitfully unengaging despite its hardest attempts to be engaging, its not fun, and its not interesting.
maybe this kind of shit is interesting to a person whos never played this genre before. but honestly the entire design of skills is insulting to ones intelligence.
I think the fastest ive cleared the campaign last league was like 7 or 8 hours. I just can't be bothered to give a shit.

I ended up having to re-do many zones since there are interactions after you kill a boss that are required and you're forced to slog through the shit zone again.
I probably should have just done whatever on my passive tree instead of following my POB. because honestly you're right the gear does nothing impressively. really need to grab a lot of pointless nodes to be refunded later for a ass ton of gold.
Idk how they turn this around but we all can feel the issues, its undeniable and I shilled for this game since 0.1
The obvious flaws and design choices just become undefendable as they persist unchanged.

>>550980550
default attack is actually stronger than most skills early on

they're all equally bad and don't belong in here. just go on reddit to worship your ecelebs.
>>
>>550981108
wyvern's default attack (Rend) is just straight up stronger and clears better than 99% of all skills through the entire campaign all the way through t16 endgame mapping, assuming you're sustaining its empower which is shit easy with Devour.

He cheats and shoots attacks backwards at you. It is statistically impossible to beat him without trying at least a hundred times.
>>
>>550981718
Wanted Dead was the hardest new game Ive played recently.
poo2 is just boring and shit. The hardest thing about this game is staying awake.
>>
>>550981946
this reminds me of how bullshit a lot of the bosses are just like some dark souls dogshit, instead of trying to use previous knowledge of other enemies or the game itself the game intentionally gives you a lot of easily and probably intentionally misleading ques.
not that this is entirely a bad thing, but it should really be reserved for bosses that are sneaky or tricky. Azmadi is a great example of this, I went from 45% to 85% phys reduction and he still multihit me unfairly multiple times along with the other nonsense moves he has. And then he has moves which are not threatening at all, very poor design.

i'm level 94 and I've only died 26 times, maybe 2 of which in the campaign and most of the rest to random shit in t16s when I wasn't paying attention. the game is a slog if you play anything but a ranger taking all the movement speed nodes in her starting area. simple as.

Ignore the seething obese manchildren.
Its still a hard and punishing game, but they've added a lot of QoL that makes it a lot more comfortable to play (like sprinting), and the overall power balance has gotten a lot better between different builds.
The people in this general play thousands of hours every league and have fried all the dopamine receptors in their brains. They shouldn't be thought of as humans, only hollow, joyless husks. Do not listen to them. (They are also fat)
