There are so many builds I want to play now, bwos.
its over
>>558714334unset ring league login
I'm still gonna SLAM scion
Okay, so how does one play Boneshatter?
Is there a SINGLE fun build that doesn't require triple digit divine investment left?
>>558714394eroi POE art... sugoirebbitors absolutely shit on the guy who posted this
Make BOLD predictions, the BOLDER the better>trans static strike will be absolutely amazing and among the top played skills once Ruetoo makes a build for it>slams will still make up half the HC ladder in the first few days>the floating hammers skill will probably be op as shit but clunky
i think that its safe to say that meta shakening was hugely successful
>>558714434elehit
>>558714434Considering T17's are no more, yes and no, I won't be naming them for you
retarded streamer nigger patch with stupid reworks, nerfs and no real buffslog off
Come home golemancers
>>558714536My build was literally ignored
>>558714518>minion + personal damage hybridthis has NEVER been ANYTHING but DOGSHIT
did storm brand get buffed or nerfed?
im unironically contemplating going bowesits one of the few builds that isnt raped and tubbed. on the contrary the new lvl 1 support gem thing is excellent for bow skills since their level scaling is dogshit and they dont have vaal skills for unknown reasons t16.5 meta instead of t17s = you need less single targetin 3.27 there was no reason to play tranny shot when penance brand exists, but now? it might be legitimately good
>>558714637read nigga read
>>558714571>y-you wouldn't know them they go to another school kek
>>558714605Just watch. I already see one possible vector for it to be better than dual strike of ambi, depending on how the skill is worded.
>>558714684@grok what does this say in only 4 words
>>558714581>PLEASE PLAY MY TRANNY MOD FOR A DEAD GAME!!!!!!!!!!
>dood instead of an abyss jewel you can put whispers of troon on your le belt!!!!!It's not that good. The FREE shrine belt is excellent for shrinemaxxers thoughbeit.
>he is a jingakh
Im making a thematic holy build and I dont care if its bad
>>558714684>Effectiveness added damage buffed>More damage nerfedPlease help translating.
>>558714539>elehit>fun or cheap
>>558714637It got slightly under 50% more flat damage and has almost double flat effectiveness scaling, but lost 50% more damage to attached enemies. It's buffed by a lot, but it needs a shitton of buffs to be viable. I'm curious to see how it plays.
>no chaos dot buffsit's literally so fucking over I hate my chungus life
>>558714790>shrinemaxxersNO ONE TELL HIM!
>>558714784>DEAD GAMEWithout it your favourite chink wetmarket simulator wouldnt exist
>>558714874>>558714772 (I can't count to 4 sorry)Low investment = buffHigh crit + heavy multiplier stacking= slight nerfFlat damage stacking = buff
>>558714969nobody cares unc
>>558714878It's fun as fuck because it's aesthetic, and since it seems like GenC didn't get nerfed, you won't have single target issues.
>>558714434Looks like Earthshatter Bannermaxxer got a 50% haircut which means it's only 5 million DPS with infinite defenses and 400% movement speed for 1c total character investment now. Shame.
I kinda want to do winter orb occultist. GGG however still hasn't fixed Focussed Channeling Support they introduced last patch despite being told multiple times it literally does nothing
>>558715014I am going to earthshatter you
>>558714724It's okay, lil bro. Your favorite streamer will fill you in.
uhmm loot buffs????????????????
>>558714874storm brand does 22% less dmg to the branded enemylvl scaling is 62% better, meaning 26.8% more dmg vs the branded enemy if you factor in the nerfadded dmg effectiveness is 83% better, meaning its 43.5% better vs the branded enemybasically its a buff. a big one
which adhd zoom zoom loot pinata build will be meta
>>558714790>The FREE shrine beltthe what now?
>>558714878retard
Adding all these Holy skills to poe1 is basically soft confirmation they're rushing to get Templar done for poo2 after it's been over a year with no Paladin and d4 releasing its paladin/crusader.Absolution minions got a 50% increased base duration and deal 40% more damage+aoe with empowered lightning blasts but even then I don't know if they'll be worth playing, the fact you have to stop and stand still to cast absolution means it's really unfun to play in endgame when half the appeal of playing minions is mobility, even the minion builds that require attacking usually use Cyclone+Cast While Channeling. Infinite duration sentinel of radiance+36% more move speed is great but guardian still might be better just going Soulwrest or SRS instead of bothering with shit like dominating blow or absolution or the new holy armaments skill.The holy flame totem buff is nice. I actually thought it was decent on minion builds as long as you took Spiritual Aid to scale its damage and consecrated ground is always decent, it has double the projectiles at max level now (6 instead of 3) and got its damage buffed by 20% at all levels. During campaign I think it's a no brained to grab and throw down on bosses now. I
>>558715134it's still ass
We're all playing Rue's Ele Hit Surfcaster, bwos. It's crazy and won't make you quit within two days.
>>558715130>Greatly reduced the amount of items dropped from explosive barrels in the Fortress Map. These barrels will now drop a comparable number of items to barrels in other maps.here :)
>>558715013>GenChaving to use that dogshit already precludes a build from being fun
>>558715259it's slayer now tho, wayyy better at everything basically
>>558715227that is true
>>558715259>breachlord>all elemental damage treated as x damageLeddit figured out my build in 5 seconds fuck.
>>558715014Earthshitter is a strong contender for least fun skill in the game
I still don't really get what is this, can you use astrolabes on these?
>>558714584your build isnt meta thats one. and two there are massive changes to endgame farms and shit like stackers. first actually impactful notes since forever.
Are we hype?
>>558715429What do you mean what this is? It's a way to open these specific maps.
>>558715475I am
>>558715221Absolution is very good and having to cast a spell every 20 seconds isn't a big deal while mapping. Vaal Absolution is brokenly strong and I can't believe they buffed it. Absolution is only annoying at the start of sketchy boss fights like The Feared.
>>558715475for maintenance mode yeah
>>558715475Hyped with the endgame changesCompletely neutered with being lost as to what skill to play
So which gems and builds got fubbed and which got tubbed?
>>558714536>zero meaningful buffs>zero good new skillsno
>>558715485oh right, since you actually need to click on the thing on the atlas now, nevermind
>>558715294fair point I hate it too>>558715393holy fuck I knew that node was good intuitively but I didn't see the exact path. and you can actually play it on good (non-phrecia) ascendancies now.
>>558715393does that actually work? that sounds kinda retarded if true
>>558715546This is good btw, means a fun week of build theorycrafting
>>558715475I haven't been this hyped in years. Frogmode won
>>558714182Did these nodes get leaked yet? The one on the right looks like a minion thing
I am going to play my golemancer with 11link squire setup and Hairy Retard cant stop me. Also I am going to buy 420% inc minion damage, 12 rmr, 50% cold res with supreme ostentation legion jewel around the agnostic keystone for underprice.
>>558715475looks like one of the best leagues in a long time paired with a pure dogshit turd patch straight from jonathans asshole
>>558715614there is nothing to theorycraft, earthshatter nerfed, boneshatter untouched is everything you need to know
>>558715595Probably have to use combat focusx2 but should work with all prismatic skills.
>>558715393READ NIGGA READ
The new Antiquarian node for an extra 100% bonus effect on quivers is extremely interesting for Reflect Totems. It used to require a lot of investment to get to 99% reduced projectile speed which turns Ball Lightning into an infinitely hitting black hole. With the new node, all you need now is a 196-199% Widowhail and Craghead to hit the breakpoint for 99% reduced proj speedI have no clue what the theoretical math would be like for proc rate on Torchoak Steps (BL has a proc rate of one hit per 150ms so 6 hits per second per cast? but way fewer totems) but it should theoretically be higher than the current method of scaling attack speed and using Galvanic Arrow, which already can hit around 30mil bossing dps.
I think I'm gonna play TR PF
I think I wanna try the new Static Strike. Static Strike itself is actually a pretty underrated skill. I used it during one of the Settler's leagues and it was pretty effective. It got buffed so it means using it until you actually get the transfigured version seems fine (and if the transfigured version sucks you can just play regular static strike).I wonder what class though. Warden seems like the generic answer given it is an elemental attack and would benefit highly from tinctures. But Slayer is sitting right there and is just comfy. The Warden buffs barely seem to matter for this though, as you're still just gonna go 2 Tinctures and then probably avatar or something (which is a bit better but w/e).
>>558715614I'd rather theorycraft what's the best atlas strats now than the skill I'm using to go through it. I'll probably settle for some basic bitch option.
>Widowhail node already pre-nerfedFUUUUUUUUUUUCK GOD DAMNIT EVERY BROKEN INTERACTION I SEE IS GETTING HEEMED ALREADY.
what build do I play now?I skipped a league or two and am totally lost
guardian holy sweep LOGIN
>>558715531Vaal absolution Innocence getting 300% damage from 200% is huge yeah. 44% more area of effect is gonna mean you nuke the entire screen. It's tempting but I've been baited before so I'm still hesitant
>>558715670>minionwe don't need more shit minion passives holy fuck
>>558715834the problem with static strike is that having to hit something in the tiny melee range every 4 seconds is extremely fucking annoying doubly so because the passive lightning will kill whatever you were trying to melee do we even know what tranny static strike does
>>558715797besides doryani's prototype builds stacking auras for flat damage who else wants that?if it worked on minions it would actually be the best 4th ascendancy for my old doryani's prototype triad grip soulwrest build from 3.26
This looks absolutely INSANE
>>558715945yes we do
>>558716138every poe content creator is an annoying faggot
>>558716196i miss her bros
>>558715945GGG is adding a lot more hybrid minion interactions to incentivize having some minions out but also actually playing the game and attacking enemies yourself, like the farruls stuff or the new holy skills (and mega buffing Absolution, which is the iconic hybrid selfcast spell damage+minion skill)
>zero relevant skill buffs>like seriously, literally 0Sooooooooooooo same stale ass meta then. Great. Oh no ES is slightly weaker.
BLEED BOW WILL BE META NEXT PATCH TRUST THE PLAN
>>558716086if it works on local added damage then it'd be good for ele attack builds if not yeah it's total garbo
>xhes hyped>xhe doesnt knowcute newfags wont make it past 95
>>558716086Well if you use combat focus it will always pick one element type, with the ascendancy node it'll make all of the added cold/fire/light apply to the type you're picking.So base damage on Ele hit goes from 609-1133 cold to 1475 - 4809
>>558716063The trans (be respectful) version is it does an arc instead of the little bolts. Static Strike's range is more of a pain in the ass during the start. Once you get some additional strikes or strike range it is fine.
>>558716324GGG is addicted to mewgenics so I know what will be the next league mechanic
>>558716268half the fucking bloodline skills are already minion garbagewe don't needmore
>>558715904Gladiator and Slayer were literally untouched by the patch notes so just read the gem changes and make sure none the skills you want to play were nerfed and then just crack open an old build to play no more t17s means builds don't need nearly as many hoops to jump through and comfy gameplay is more important
>>558714770cute! also who knows? they're weird and backwards as fuck
comparison is the thief of joy
>>558716268and it's fucking retarded and will never work because 40% inc attack speed isn't going to make up missing 1000% more damage from a crapton of multipliers
>start POBing a rough Winter Orb tree>it's just BV treewell fuck, something else then
>>558716494>Gladiator and Slayer were literally untouched by the patch notesHalf the ascendancies are untouched, like they didn't even bother.
>>558715904Pick Juggernaut, Slayer, Glad, Trickster, or Occultist and just play a skill related to that. They're all still OP.
>>558716614>Occultistcold dot sucks though
does ID still get overlaps?
>>558716451that sounds like you have to attack to proc the lighting and getting additional strikes isn't free you will either have to use a bunch of passives, a support gem or shit up your glove slot
>>558716413oh lol GGG is definitely gonna nerf this now that you've posted it
>>558715686fuck yeah niggy. you do that. I'm gonna try the league, get bored and play standard on my three spark characters lol
>legion>scarab of eternal conflict>scarab of treasure>stand next to currency chest>break it over and over and over, applying currency rewards and empowering nearby monsters>drop twenty div>do it again in mirageoh yes.
>>558714536Cascading shock nova looks bussin'
>>558716241she made 3.27 builds
the base level of power is so high nothing even needs buffs other than shit like chain hook
>>558716494>no more t17soh fucklast I played the best thing was to stack the scarab to give extra random mods and exclusively speedrun t17it was comfy just getting loot and boss drops with no league stuff to slow you down. just simple kill, loot, win.but there were like 2 builds that could handle 13 mod bricked t17how the fuck do I get rich now
>>558716767I dont think so, they showcased the cold version with the new supports.
Why do they raise the tier if they just get converted anyways
>>558716196ohayou, Kei-chan!!!!
whatever scarab people abuse will be now twice the price because of the mirage mechanics
Has anybody already bought new support packs?Can you lock paper pet at fox form or it will cycle change to bird and to fox again?
>>558716196I miss this nigga like you wouldn't believe...
>>558714536>kboc ignoredhuh?
>>558716897because that lets you the maps that drop as t15 to drop as t16 which do not convertread nigger read
>>558717042why raise the tier of t1 maps thenwhat's the point
Frogmode WonOctavian WonZaccie LostJonathan Lost
>>558717096amount of gold
>>558717028Keep talking about it, they'll nerf it within the next few days.
>>558717096better gold conversion RETARD
>>558716995>buying supporter packs
wait how will we farm scarabs in 3.28?fortress barrels nerfed and t17s in general changed to t16s (same size as normal t16s?)blight rapedharbingers removedwhat the fuck do we do??nemeses farm requires a ton of rares in the map or you burn through scarabs too fastis it actually going to be enraged breach fortress fucking nigger shit
>>558716864T16.5s still exist which were added in mercenaries
>>558715797>>558716086it could also convert things like energy blade or archmage or the new frostmage and other similar effects to lightning/cold
>>558717282very punchable face ngl
>>558717027>lost kay>gained ghazzy
>>558717345abyss is right there bwo
>>558717282Who is this HARD looking fella
>>558717028>Fixed a bug where the Runegraft of Refraction did not correctly interact with Kinetic Blast of Clustering's number of explosions
>>558717460lmao
>>558717028stat stackers got hit bigly
>>558717495I played kboc before that runegraft existed and it was still busted. just means you gotta use woke fork again
>>558717350>T16.5s >mercenariesAHH. that's the last league I played. thanksokay. I have half an idea of where to go from here.
>>558717345titanic blightheart only took a slight hit, with astrolabes + threads + altar watchstone it'll be a buff.
>>558717460abyss monsters have a 99.99% reduced quant debuffthose fuckers drop literally nothingalthough to be fair it might be decent with astrolabe mods and the abyss scarab of profound depth which was buffed in the 3.27 mid league patch
thinking it's a retal bleed glad kinda league ngl senpaitachi
now that delve is the only source of fossils should I finally get into it and understand how the mechanic works? I've basically ignored it the last several leaguesif the mirages can trigger during delves that seems fun though
>>558716324Don't play with my heart strings.
>>558717495what does this even mean. kboc is not affected? kboc already only fired one projectile. btw i don't even use that runegraft and reach tens of millions of dps so idk
>>558717606by what exactly?
>>558717621>just means you gotta use woke fork againHehehehehehehehehehe
>>558717345you wanted ground loot? you(r favorite groupnigger streamers) got it. enjoy faggot.
>>558717690anon....
>>558717643i will believe it when i see it i know the amount of loot from the blight bosses didnt change but it wasnt that big of a portion anyway
>>558716086Rakiata Heatshiver with Runegraft of Treachery
there's no way this shrine can roll on the new belt.............right?jugg would become the best class in the game by an order of magnitude
flicker reliquarian
>>558717621woke gems are no more my nigga. woke is DEAD.
>>558717826>Resonating Shrine no longer grants a bonus per power, frenzy and endurance charge, instead now granting an additional maximum power, frenzy and endurance charge. This shrine still grants random charge generation on hit and on kill.
Are any of the new holy skills worth using?
>>558717876they didnt even release reliquarian nodes yet right
>>558717951damn they thought of everything
>>558717998yes, all of them
>>558718036there's terminus est atleast from the look of it
>>558717951alright that basically confirms the new belt can roll any shrinei hope it's not too rare
>>558717998Hammer one looks interesting. Powercharge shit though
>>558717660lucky block and triple lucky block with the unique shield will always mean gladiator is at least
>>558718101belt is almost certainly a t0
>>558718036>>558718085
>>558718180grabbing that shit retal unique shield for cheap is pretty nice early on too if you're not a fast boi
Im dealing around 4 m dpsI can get +1m extra dps or 20 fortifywhats better
>>558716413Finally, Warden buffs (lmao)
>>558718204its from the league boss aka gonna be common if the boss is common.
>>558718249does double widowhail have some potential?
ok, quick recap> golems obliterated> tree chopped> autoexert is ded> rf does not exist poxh will kill himselfwelp, comfy is gone, guess jonatroon won. holy skills are ass and nuwoke gems will be pre-nerfed and still expensivestill, I'm a generous god and I will give you an easy way to make gigatons of divs if you dont care about being bored to death, wont even spoiler it because being nice sometimes is goodjust fucking run delve and hope for minion fossils, the 3 or 4 people who still want to play minions will have to pay up the ass if they want to progress beyond yellow maps
>>558718342I fucking HATE warden
>>558718472you forgot >penance brand annihilated >mamba taken out back and shot
>>558718548>mamba taken to the tub
max block holy shield gladiator
>>558718548>ignite raped
>>558718472>> tree choppedEh. Provisioning got gutted but the rest are left alone. Considering there's now 3 possible breaches per map, one could even be a fortress and now you have 100k blood available, it's easy to farm up other shit.
>>558718548I thought mamba was already raped last league
>>558718548>>mamba taken out back and shotthis is one thing i dont understand, mambwa wasnt even that good and popular, no?
kinetic fusilade chads WONkboc chads WONflicker strike chads WONblasters WONFUBGUN WON
Greater trinity perhaps?
>>558718472anon the highest map tier is now just t16s, that's a massive buff to casual clear builds like RF because you no longer need to worry about t17 map modifiers or killing t17 bosses.bare minimum guardian got buffed a lot so you can literally just stack minion health for sentinel of radiance and have it kill everything for you with its better-RF effect
>>558718548I was just talking about what seems to be somewhat cheap to leaguestart and not have zdps at map ilvl 77, penbrand and mamba required some decent investmentthat being said you're right and I'm not even counting everything that has been assraped
>>558718757yeah it was like 2% in keepers the meme build was kinda op but ironically the normal poison version got hit by far the hardest by the nerfs and that was at like 1% play rate lol
Holy strike guardian is going to be insane for bossing>It uses your weapon and creates at least 3 copies that all hit your target>It can proc Hallowing Flame>Hallowing Flame has 2 charges and cause melee hits to gain extra damage as fire>Consuming Hallowing Flame gives you extra damage as lightningGet some giga beefy phys staff and after 2-3 hits you'll have over 100% of phys damage added as extra easily. and since it's a shitty strike skill you know it's going to have like 600% effectiveness already
>>558718773RETARD
>>558718839if you want cheap league start guardian can literally equip zero damage skills and radiant sentinel will kill everything for you in campaign and early maps. It's shrine buffs got buffed to be greater ice/fire/lightning shrines instead of normal ones as well. literally zero gear mapping
>>558718472nigga if they're in yellow maps tf are they gonna pay me with alchs and fusings?
>Another nothingburger patchYou are not seriously hyped for it, are you? Anon?
>>558719025bro the DOUBLED currency drops and MASSIVELY increased the weighting for chaos
Mirage League is fucking dogshit, and you're laughing?????
>>558718947the problem is guardian has fucking nothing for a regular attack build
>>558718773> you no longer need to worry about t17 they did not remove ubers or the bosses thougheverbeit. > sentinel of radianceI wouldnt be surprised if that one gets shadow-raped considering that now you dont have to summon it every three seconds (you're still going to need to convocate him)dollars against donuts that people will leaguestart guardian and reroll as soon as they hit yellow maps
Bruh plsFortify or 25% increased dps
Ok but what about 0.5
Holy Strike looks bussin fr
>>558718249This will be exciting to play i think. They were more structured in Phrecia so i wonder what they will do, they seem much more random now. You can imagine something like Kilova Buster has that 90% res node or res invert and Grelwood Shank is extra proj if you've hit or somethingI'm guessing bottom set is melee attacks and top set is spells because thats how it was in phrecia and that lines up here.
>>558718947its dominating blow of reflection. if it is remotely playable it will be by investing in the reflections, not the damage (you) deal. nigggers vision of a hybrid attack/spell + minon skill has never worked like that and never will.
>>558718762
>>558719176that's why you respec into heiro
>>558718472I can tell you haven't played minions in many leagues because they're literally one of the easiest and most gear independent builds on league start, especially if you play guardian+elemental relic aura stacking instead of necro poison. you can have half your gear slots empty and it doesn't matter. just play SRS, or buy a soulwrest for dirt cheap since nobody can fucking read patch notes and missed the massive buffs it got in 3.26 and it's been untouched for several leagues, or just play vaal absolution and have innocence kill everything for youspectres and animated guardian is whalebait and often overpriced as fuck but 95% of minion builds are not animated guardian builds
>A Power Charge can be expended to call down additional Hammers to either side of the initial slam.why did they port a shitty skill mechanic from poe2
>>558719025true that, you got methe ghazzy mafia will still want them tho and they're not above rmting divs for that, to be desu
>>558718101>>558718204>>558718356Zero fucking chance they let you have Acceleration Shrine with Diamond or Resistance. That's literally better than Mageblood (and I will fight anyone who tries to argue against this.)As shown it's already fucking incredible. 40% less elemental damage taken + guaranteed crit is streets ahead of anything you can get from a belt.
>>558719374my bad im drunk
>3.27 is going to be the great rebalancing patch! We promise!>Actually, it's 3.28!>No, you got it wrong. It's actually on 3.29!
>>558719176bloodline ascendancies were basically made for shit like guardian and gladiator who have some ascendancy nodes they really want but others are meh and can take or leave just go farruls after you get elemental relics and sentinel
>>558719510>That's literally better than Mageblood no it's not especially since you can't use flasks which are double dps + double speed + double tankyness
Limited edition, FRS, Scion.
>>558719614shame 99% of bloodlines are shit
>>558719448here comes the thingsrs and absolution are literally selfcast skills with the fucking minion tag. minions by themselves are DED dead. I just wanna chill nigga. guess I'll go back to modded d2r
>>558718393Replica Alberons Spinehail TS gets +13 arrows with double Widowhail
>>558719614>sentinel>on a non-minion build anon that thing is going to die the second something looks at you funny
Warden is already insanely strong as a damage ascendancy. The problem is that Warden is entirely dependent upon tinctures. Until you have two tinctures with like t1/t1 or t2/t2 mods + all of the relevant tincture stuff on the tree, it sucks. Once you have two tinctures set up they're laughably retarded and easily take care of your pen, crit, increased damage, attack speed, etc. Whatever you need. And you can automate them with ahk to have a 100% uptime without ever impacting your mana pool.
>years ago you had a meme branch for elementalist that required you to waste half your ascendancy points to get, but allowed you to scale golem buff effect by just summoning more golems>generic buffs out the ass, casual RF-tier regen, big attack speed and flat accuracy, all that shit>it was fun so they had to remove it, almost 5 years ago now>leave it in the ditch for ages>suddenly decide you're doing a golem rework>figure out you might as well finally fix elementalist too>consolidate the nodes and now you only need one ascendancy notable to get everything golem related>you can now again get a bunch of generic buffs that scale almost anything you want>including things that are difficult or almost impossible to scale otherwise>but it's fun so you nerf it after 1 patch>and basically carpet bomb it after another>golemancer was alive for 2 fucking leagues lmaoFantastic, now what fucking ascendancy am I supposed to play to use phys dot skills? Fucking unascended Scion because she has that one wheel next to her start?
>>558719765The new one that changes all added damage to cold or lightning is 100% gonna get broken within 12 hours of league start and maybe nerfed
>>558719793>zero button minion builds are still badSucks to be you.
>>558719793ngmi
>>558719510you can combine it with king of the mists bloodline to sac flasks and get a third ring btw. this belt is so much better than mageblood its not even funny.
>>558719867bleed slams/bows glad
>>558719649it lets you use the +1 ring ascendancyits pretty fucking gooddiamond shrine gives you crit cap with 0 investment, accel shrine is 50% action speed, resistance shrine is 10 max res and 50 resits way better offensively than mageblood at the very least
I can't fucking believe we are going back to sextant bullshittery
>>558719867>Fucking unascended Scion because she has that one wheel next to her start?kek
>>558719867>phys dot skills?Glad :)
>>558720103it's not sextants though cause you don't have to roll them. you just buy 50000 astrolabe of the type you want from Fisto and then just apply it to your maps, run the 5 maps, run the vault, get shittons of loot.
so this keystone is literally mandatory if you want to run astrolabes
>>558720103Thankfully, it's not that ass.
Give me more player agency.
>>558719898>>558719903dont worry frensI'll be chillin when jonatroon fulfills his dream of turning everything into soulslop that requires you to make an mmo rotation.i'll be nice and welcoming

>>558720483It still requires the same number of maps.The practical difference between running specific map layouts is overall marginal.If you wanna run it, go ahead. Nobody's gonna stop you.But obsessing over it is just gonna make your life worse.

>>558719867>but it's fun so you nerf it after 1 patchyou know what else would be fun? if the elementalist had an ascendancy that made every monster drop a div. why not have that? what does ggg hate fun or something

>>558720532During the first 10 levels or so. Even with barbarian you get double swing at level 6 which is faster than any non pure dex soulshitter. granted, you dont get movement skills from the get-go, but that can be fixed with mods, and its also a 20 year old game. having better movement in a literal 20 year old game than you have in poe2 is just selfharming in nature KEK

>>558721445Jonathan doesn't work on PoE1 any more, retarddid you even watch the stream?
>>558720532Diablo 2 characters are significantly faster than PoE2 characters and in the early game you're unironically faster than act 1 poe characters some of you fags have forgotten what Diablo 2 actually plays like https://youtu.be/aZ5aTA3uDgsthis is literally faster than waking up on the beach as a Templar whacking shit with Glacial Hammer, let alone how fast endgame d2 builds are. look at how fast it is to move an entire screen and how zoomed out the camera is, then compare that to poe2 with no boots or move speed bonuses. PoE2 is literally glacial until you get shit like temporalis or stack +100% move speed and sprint
so with no t17s maps are going get blasted meaning higher scarab consumption and without buffs to scarab droprates we're back to farming scarabsso much for meaningful tinks

By the way there actually are enough good melee nodes for a Guardian to pick now. You take the new Marshal of Divinity, the shrine node, the block node, and Farrul Bloodline tigers. Go Smite or Lightning Strike I dunno, but it should just work without pressing minion buttons. You will want to convert phys to ele for best results.
>>558722990>enrageevery fucking time this shit has been a 1000% increased quant and rarity multiplier and is the best strat in the gameinvigoration, old titanic, enraged strongboxesfuck it, might as well do it again
I dont know what map mechanic to farm, they all seen meh, I don't do betrayal, breach, delve, delirium and the rest have bad rewards
>>558723210Whatever you decide, the devs are making the entire game around the idea you want to do the same thing over and over and over on repeat.
holy fuck please for the love of god let there be a pt 2 patch notes it cant be this fucking bad and empty
>>558723112>leaguestart>+4 corrupt chest
>>558723171this is actually going to be nuts. fortresses were pretty bad in keepers because you couldnt guarantee them and now you can click enrage skills instead of save cards. shit is going to be extremely hard though.
>>558722885I will concede that it happened in mercs but only the last few weeks when the economy goes to shit anyways.
>The Marohi Erqi Unique Mace now has 40-50% increased Area of Effect. This change does not affect existing versions of the item.say less
I will be leaguestarting whatever $10 worth of divs gets me
>>558723112Will probably just take a Smite Slayer and try and use it with the new Holy Sweep or Slam. Unless someone figures out a Guardian/Inq version that's stronger.
>>558723662There's gotta be whales that drop 1k at a time on mirrors and divs every week
they finally decided ES needed a nerf
>>558723418all im saying is, chaos will still have value to roll maps (the same as alch + scour)maybe it wont be as high but its not going to be poe2 exalt levels of garbagetheres also a new mechanic for map rolling with those new scarabs that gives 100% effect of suffix / prefix mods at the cost of nullifying the other side, which lets you squeeze even more value out of really well rolled maps. if you roll 2x more currency or more scarabs on one side, thats doubled to 4x. its highly potent and more achievable than naturally rolling 4x more currency / scarabs on the map so the ev is higher.
>>558723825es is actually fine, stat stackers got the well deserved bat.
>>558723210everything is pretty balanced now so just do what you enjoy
they are buffing totems....
Frostmage looks interesting, weird that it gains damage as a % of reserved mana.
>>558723865>new scarabs that gives 100% effect of suffix / prefix modsOh sick foreal? I didn't see that in the notes. I will have to re-read.
>>558724000bisection scarab got split in 2
>>558723981it's like archmage except now you can run more than 1 aura
>>558723112kboc chaos as usual. fubbers won
>>558723954holy flame totem got buffed by 240% with projectiles doubled and 20% more damage. Idk if it'll be worth endgame but for campaign it's gonna be a no brainer to socket
>Intelligence now inherently grants 1% increased Maximum Energy Shield per 10 Intelligence (previously per 5 Intelligence).

Idk can I play auto bomber league start in 1?
>>558724321in my ass
>>558724321You buy divines with them
>>558723981it's inverse archimage, looks fun and since stacking auras is so common for builds it should see some use
>>558724223yeah, might be the best campaign skill of all time nowwish taunt totem would get this treatment, it's a fun skill
>>558724223I was thinking I can just throw this in an extra 4L and it will do work. Campaign gets easier and easier with every patch.
>>558724113it gives more damage than archmage too. managing manacost is going to be a challenge though
>>558724321chaos are now alch orb tier.we are going to trade in gcps now
>>558724321Sir chaos orbs are for rerolling your gear modifiers
>>558724478you also lose out on MoM which archmage likes to use. I guess you could go heiro and then FF the guardian node that gives extra armor per reserved mana and go block+aegis so you don't die
Big if true
don't care still gonna farm synth invitations desu

any pconc nerfs...
I need to hear what Tri thinks before I can give my take
>>558724756this
I am once again reminding you that Templar area has received accuracy nodes. I repeat, Templar area has received accuracy nodes. You can actually play an attack build on these characters without wanting to shoot yourself when you see 87% chance to hit despite leveling your Precision to level 13.

>>558725516>Zero ChallengesZero care.
Hopefully 3.29 is good
i have a good feeling about this league poo eggtheres a lot of nerfs in the patch notes but there will be new builds with the new skills, new uniques and new supports. keepers actually had a lot of cool stuff in it build wise, it was just overshadowed by the league being dogshitthe league itself looks fucking sick and it comes in combination with an actual endgame rework, not the "lol t17 mods on a t16 map + petal skills (we will buff them next week)" endgame rework of 3.26we wonned

Home Run!!!! Thanks Mark and team!Just wow! End game needed some real love and that is what we get plus so much more! When Chris left I thought it was the end of my favorite game. Boy was I wrong. It took awhile but here is Mark and team creating what I know is going to be one of the most unique expansions in PoEs history. I like them taking risks like this. The game is fantastic but t17 were so bad for the game. I am happy to see the memory stuff as a focus as that content is under appreciated and a more fun end game system than t17. My favorite time with the atlas was when it had influence. So happy to see that back! I could probably type for an hour but I won't. Just thank you to everyone who works on poe 1! This is the GAME OF GAMES for me and I cannot wait to dive into 3.28 Mirage!!!!I will 100% buy a supporter pack this league to show my appreciation. I've held off waiting to see the direction of my favorite game. Today I was proven this is a game that is not going anywhere. Not with exceptional ideas like we are getting next week!
>>558727365>startingOh yes, all it requires is:>Endgame Unique item with super random rolls bullshit from new boss>Trash unique>An annoying to get endgame Unique that eats up a valuable Jewel slot>Trash* unique>An easily acquirable endgame Unique>A relatively easily acquirable endgame UniqueYou ain't startin' with it, that's for sure.

>>558728229Supported skills again added cold damage equal to 22% of reserve maximum manaSupported skills gain based mana cost equal to 3% of reserved maximum mana.
>>558728369>skill called unholy>its just chaos damage
>>558728078>Added two new clusters to the west of the Templar starting area: one granting Accuracy and Effect of Consecrated Ground, the other granting Accuracy and Attack Area of Effect.Nah, dude. Accuracy and Attack AoE is specifically tailored to that skill. They go hard on specific support geared for their specific new skills nowadays.
>>558728369>skill is called Righteous Fire>it's not holy
>>558727843This, but unironically
>>558726770>>558726252Yes, but nobody here played Diablo 1

>>558728435>>558728436>reservedHold on, that's reverse archmage
Your build is going to thrive based on if they give you an exceptional support gem that helps your specific build. Just get lucky.
what the fuck do i do for 7 days now
>>558728435Thanks
>>558727521bro the rarest drops from last league's boss are a few div, and you have to purposefully run that shit.nuboss just appears in your maps, everyone is going to be killing it constantly
if hive was actually really difficult and rewarding, it would be fun ngllllllllll
>>558728627good luck with 5% mana cost when you reserve all your mana though
I like the idea of Holy Hammers but aren't to keen on Phys to Lightning damage. How do I make it good?
I quit breach 2.0 like 1 week in and I know fuck all about it besides grafts (that I'm assume are cut), and the tree printing a gazillion t1/t0s fractures, what else did it bring to the table?
>>558728750
>>558728714you are actually terminally retarded if you think that the belt is going to be cheaper. this is a chase item.
It's not that the poe community is bad, it simply does not exist.
>>558728783Full convert, reduce enemy ele res, and try to keep your Perfect Spirit of Fortune alive. Have fun.
>>558728760Yeah I was thinking the same thing. It sounds cool because you get to spam auras, but you'd have to balance out how much you reserve to probably like 75% max. So less flat damage but your reservations are supposed to offset it? Weird
>>558728620ya I forgot I switched to frostbreath prior to getting frostbreath though I just use staff
I'm going to be bold. I'm going to start Righteous Fire.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=98Rt9-SBgxk/ourguy/ is back and he's going to tell me if the league is good
>>558729018Absolutely massive HARD
Dual Strike of Amb still good?
>>558728586nah, there's 3 coins, one for each colour of support added
>>558728962why can't I convert my lightning into physical???
>>558728821A bunch of stat stacker Foulborn Uniques. Foulborn Red Dream and Foulborn Howa got nerfed, but they're still in the game. Foulborn Kikazaru is like 200 flat mana plus curse immunity. Foulborn Berek's Respite is the best explosion prolif in the game.
>>558728783>Attack damage: 220% of baseThis line makes it kind of shitAlso it requires mace, sceptre or staffI think the only way to make it good is if you can do all these:>figure out 100% power charge uptime>use doryani's prototype setup>add a fuckton of flat lightning damage (maybe with archmage)
>>558729086still giga
>>558729004technically you can cover the manacost with whispers of infinity since its only 60-40% reduced mana, which isnt THAT bad in the grand scheme of things. inb4 they now change it to less mana instead.
I really don't like the idea of your gem getting corrupted on using a coin. What if it gets a shit roll? You now need a whole new level 20 gem.
>>558727521You gotta remember that the price of shit like mageblood and headhunter is entirely due to demand, just being a t0 unique doesn't actually mean something is automatically expensive.Kalandra's Touch has the exact same rarity as mageblood and headhunter but it's never as expensive. Lioneyes Glare and Essential Sanguis are also t0 and again are never as expensive as a mageblood.This item is a third t0 chase item in the belt slot so it's competing with mageblood and headhunter and it's attached to a league content boss that every single player will be killing constantly, many items are expensive just because nobody bothers running the content that drops it
>>558728924gonna blow your mind: items can be good and also be common
>>558728586>The support gem added to the skill is tied to the color of the skill gemno it's not
>>558729232bro your 6 empty slots in your offhand?
going from nu-breach to whatever this meta is will be BY FAR the biggest patch-to-patch dropoff for SSFfagstradegods wonfubgun won
>>558729304No way, this is PoE sir, we don't use good items here.
>>558729232sis.... your second weapon set?
>>558729232You should be levelling 6 backup gems in your weapon swap at all times anyway, so everytime you get level 20, you will have 7 attempts
i need a screen nuker build
>>558729350Oh shit, my bad.
>>558729176I think the idea is that only the main slam does good damage with its>First Hammer does 100% more damageI think they should have just made it say secondary cascades have 50% less damage and just make the base damage higher.
>>558728586>The support gem added to the skill is tied to the color of the skill gem so you can't get faster proj afaikpoop1ers are so retarded and incapable of reading they just spout nonsense
>>558729285>so it's competing with mageblood and headhunterill be honest, this isnt even a competition. the right shrine combo utterly shits on mageblood/hh and its not even close. not to mention it also opens you a triple ring setup for free. this shit is quite literally the best item in the game by far.
>>558729232that's the point. It's a currency sink for finished builds to squeeze in a 7-link as opposed to just corrupting to lvl 21 for like 10-15% more damage which is boring but safe
>>558728435>reserve 8k mana>1760-1760 added cold>skill now costs 1,500 per castHmm. Has to be duration scumming skill like Firestorm of Pelting. Still dogshit. I'm afraid Jungroan is going to have to tell me why this is good.
>>558729482I need to swap over to Jon's retardproof game.
>>558729285you dont understand just how rare the new belt is the odds of getting 2 specific shrines are < 1/100 its going to rarer than a mageblood with two desirable implicits

they really should have brought back flipping skill gems

>>558729304ggg LOVE chase items. its like their #1 favorite thing to put in the game. fucking everything has a 1% drop rate op item and its going to be the new belt this league
Hey guys, just watched the videoWhat am I suppose to be mad at?
>>558729526If it can roll random shrines not every combination will be as expensive though, it's like megalomaniac where you'll sell it un-IDd or gamble for the perfect combo like they showcased.that also makes me happy since I'm planning to play a build that wouldn't benefit from 100% crit, I plan on buying something like a lightning shrine one for cheap since everyone else wants echo/acceleration/diamondIf it's ONLY diamond+resistance shrine it's still the best belt in the game for a lot of builds

>>558729948OkayFuck you bud.
>>558729667pretty much every shrine is amazing though, you don't need it to be diamond+res like they showcased, just pick two shrines out of a hat and it's stupid good. https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Shrine#MechanicsGull giving Lesser shrines makes it a leagustart mainstay, these are full strength ones

I'm an MMO exile and I want to play your game but its too sweaty playing the 2nd monitor auction house game. Is Diablo II better for me perhaps? what say you
Ya, I think I'll just wear a Headhunter and blast with Golden Charlatan. Enjoy your gay, little belt though.
>>558729975I just spent months doing breach, i sure as shit am not going to be doing it this league.

Sigh. We're about to have so many clips of RMT characters with Simplex Amulets and Haste Shrine belts clearing Strand in 20 seconds.
give me a guardian build that will make use of a new holy skill please
is there a way in pob to turn on shrine effects?
they should make it so gcp's give 5% quality
>>558730070They added a currency exchange and asynchronous trade via in-hideout vendors so you don't need a second monitor or the trade website anymore. If you don't want to interact with trade at all you can play SSF but honestly the currency exchange alone fixes 90% of the issues with old trade
>>558730276Go away, Jonathan.
I reiterate that they're not going to let you have Acceleration or Echoing. Giving any of those + Resistance/Diamond is strictly better than Mageblood in 100% of cases. Replenishing/Gloom + Resistance/Diamond is better than Mageblood in 70% of cases and the only reason it's not 100% is because of le movement speed. Oh and you get a FREE extra Helical ring to wear.

>you have 100000000000000000000% more movement speed in a tiny area the size of your penis
>>558730221All the new shit for Guardian goes together to create a default vanilla melee character with accessory minions. You wash up on the beach with Holy Strike and use it with the new 2-point Hallowed Strikes ascendancy for 80% physical damage gained. Take the Holy Retaliation skill too if you want since it requires minions to work, and you have invulnerable minions. Run around fast with shrine nodes, then Equip Blunderbore when you can get Supreme Ostentation from a Timeless Jewel. It might not do juiced endgame, but it should clear the atlas if you're not retarded.
>>558730345those nova shrine belts can be used during lvling, anon.
>>558730458>i would be shocked if echoing and gloom is also in the pool.I am actually 100% expecting it. One of the major chase items in PoE2 is literally a scepter that gives you a bunch of extra chaos damage and permanent Gloom Shrine, if they're willing to give that to you in PoE2 "muh meaningful combat" there's zero reason to believe they wouldn't give it in the zoomier game. https://poe2db.tw/us/Palm_of_the_Dreamer

>>558730634feel like a lot of posters have played too much poe2 recently and forgot what poe1 is likemovement speed is not as important to stack at all times as humanly possible in poe1, you have other forms of mobility in poe1 you're not married to stacking move speed and a rhoa. Just frostblink and leapslam
>>558730849I cant WAIT to play RF for the 10th league in a row!
>>558730879They're gonna make sexy Zana a new uber boss fight, aren't they?
their fix for petal skills is removing petal skillslol
>>558730845echo shrine>>>>>diamond desu
>>558730858obviously it depends on the state of endgame mapping but movespeed is still a really good stat in poe1 and mageblood gives you 150% of it in addition to solving a bunch of shit at willits a good itemtheres a reason people use it over hh even though hh essentially makes your character immortal and multipliers your damage by 10x
>>558730986in 3.30 yeah
>>558730345you can still use tinctures and instant flasks, and you unlock free ring slot for not using utility flasks
>>558731004im pretty sure diamond shrine is better if you actually build your character around the fact that you get 100% crit chance with 0 investment echo shrine is clunky and 100% more attack / cast speed does not equal 100% more dps
>>558731117>tinctures
>>558731148Echo shrine with Soul Ascension gloves is pretty insane.
>>558730991technically they arent removed, they just activate automatically. i respect it
>>558731148>nd 100% more attack / cast speed does not equal 100% more dpslog in right now and pick up echo shrine on a build that wont instantly oom with it
POOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>558730849
>>558730910This, but unironically
>>558731384well thats my pointmana sustain wont get any better with the new currency that adds a 7th link
>>558731148crit cap isn't too hard to achieve, I thing 100% more attack/cast speed with extra repeat is more useful, also there is a shrine with every charge on hit buff.
>nu Domination Scarab of Apparitions>1/4 chance of "you are immune to damage over time" in EVERY map you runDo with this information what you will, fervent heroes of Wraeclast.
>>558731531then build for it just like you assumed with diamond? lol
>>558731670>damage over time
>echo shrine + replenishing shrine + rf of arcane devotionyou will not need movespeed/action speed where we are going
Why don't they ever add more Vaal Skills?
Which one of you is doing the cold dot trap?
You niggas think they're literally going to give you a 10.3x damage multiplier from a hat+belt holy shit this webforum is so fucking dumb it's unreal....
>Added two new clusters to the west of the Templar starting area: one granting Accuracy and Effect of Consecrated GroundPious Path bros we won

>>558730910I've actually never played RF seriously to endgameis this a good league for it? I want something comfy, so it's pretty much RF or HoAg right now.

>>558731783fair enough although i still feel like it would be clunky to play with
>>558732063there are multiple gear pieces that do exactly this newfren
>>558732152It's a mapping league, so yes. Your single target damage might feel bad on voidstone bosses but it's not that bad.
>>558732190Is that the washed D3 streamer?
>>558732152rf jugg is now the 2nd strongest build next to wanders with 3.28 nerfs.and with the new belt one of the cheapest to hit dot cap while being absurdly tanky

>Finally getting Aria>poe1 league right after Im so happy bwos...
how do you play impending doom
>>558732063they showed one giving you 100% crits with any skill and +10% all max resistances and +50% ele resistances. On a crit build that easily ends up doing 10x damage from all the passive points saved plus critical damage and all the effects that trigger on crit
>>558732198No, there literally aren't. You're going to say something retarded like Rathpith as if it's equivalent in any way.

>>558733731it was a good time, i watched some movies while sitting in simu.
The corruption orbs have to give you something compatible with your skill, right? So my wandfag skill has an incredibly high chance of rolling wisps/crit/crit damage/trinity since there are few INT supports for wand attacks? Seems busted compared to STRfags who are going to roll brutality and life gain on hit on their skill over and over and over.
so hyped I might do a campaign practice run
>instance crashed two times in three mapsnice serversGGG probably got them from whatever the equivalent of Walmart in NZ is
>>558734091trade is a thing so they are going to make the strongest ones super rare regardless of teh skill gem used. They can totally tell which are the best support for each skill
>>558734091kboc and kf chads CANT STOP WINNINGhow do we craft wands now though? I don't wanna use fossils bros
Bowchads we save literally, unironically 8 gem slots with these new corruptions. We need to find some more things to proc with Manaforged.

So when is the new season like tomorrow?
octavian is Heisenberg
>>558734608what? it's even easier to make ships now. using scarabs and farming ore in maps is fast as fuck since you can directly convert it to bars. way faster than farming, and now ore gives currency so.. big stonksas well as >Introduced the Kalguuran Scarab of Enriching, which increases the amount of Ore gained from Ore Deposits and the Difficulty and Reward of monsters guarding Ore Deposits for every completed Ore Deposit in the area.>The Kalguuran Scarab now grants Area contains 2 additional Ore Deposits (previously 1bro. farm ores, easiest mirror of any league desu.
>Hallowing Flame can't be utilized by you at all, only othersGAY AS FUCK
I don't understand how that saresh belt can go live as it stands. It would be powerful even if it just had one shrine mod and no other stats, while disabling flasks.It's going to be bis for tincture wardens while also allowing you to use nameless +1 ring.There's just no way.
>>558734775guardian is a Mark-core ascendancy bwo
>>558734775You will play minions (cause you dont have friends to play with)
Slam league, let the boys be boys.
Do we fuck with new Lioneye's? Far Shot and bretty good attack speed and damage. Double effect of added damage with the repeat too.
>>558734803It will be broken for 1 league and prolly nerfed the other.>>558734765Problem is how the bar to currency conversion is gonna be.If it's gonna take 200 maps of bars to maybe get a mirror shard, ehhh
>>558725050go away sandnigger
>>558734775gibe Supreme Truth to ur AG
how hard would it be to get 2 storm secret in ssf
>>558734881Uh if that dps is true, then it's better than most bows and typical rare bows.
>>558734881i dont play bow builds
>>558734803>its going to BIS for a build that nobody playsThat's a good thing.
>>558734919>how the bar to currency conversion is gonna be.it's based on value, always has. and bars have way more value than crops do on a 1-1 basis. a map right now with kalguuran scarabs and tree gives around 3k bars.on something like strand, blasting quickly, that's an insane rate. Fubgun could quite literally keep all 3 ships supplied with 25 mil bar/ 25 mil dust 24/7 and rake in mirrors.they made kingsmarch an even bigger dark pattern. all the loot is now solely from shipping and maxxing ores.
>>558734803Stop talking about it and let us have some fun you retard
>>558734881If that's real. It's easily farmable as well.
>>558734803they confirmed you get 1 offensive and one defensive shrine, so no accel + diamond or whatever. still pretty strong though
The crit tincture is 500% increased crit chance which already caps your ass for free so it's not too busted. There's no third great tincture after the ele damage and crit ones. You'd have to do poison.Belt is busted regardless despite the lolnomovementspeed.
>>558735017unless it's bleed bow baby
>Lioneye's Glare Unique Bow now has Attacks you use yourself Repeat an additional time and Attacks you use yourself have 50% more Attack Speed. The implicit modifier is now 20-24% increased Global Physical Damage (previously 20-24% increased Elemental Damage with Attack Skills). It no longer has 10-20% increased Attack Speed. These changes do not affect existing versions of the item.Why not just triple the damage of the item? Why pretend like you're doing something interesting by forbidding bow trap builds (lol) and that mirage archer passive on deadeye (lmao) from using it?>>558734881
>>558734775They give you INVULNERABLE minions with the new attack skill. What more do you want?
>>558735237Acceleration confirmed an option? If so it's 100% best in slot belt and Mageblood is now worthless.

>>558735108>kalguuran scarabsthey gigabuffed sulphite and you could already just run and pick up sulphite for way more ore than actual ore nodes 10x faster.also no need to run sulphite scarab anymore so you're free to spend like 20 points grabbing sulphite nodes and do your main mechanic still.
cringe
>>558735328To stop totem and mineniggers.
My favorite part of pre-League discussion has to be the "THIS IS RIDICULOUSLY OP AND YOU'RE A RETARD IF YOU DON'T PLAY IT" (into 0% playrate when the league releases) posts
>>558735464yea but you wanna skip getting raw ores since you can convert ores to bars directly with scarab of refinement.it's just quicker turnaround time
>>558735556Doesnt that scarab also apply to sulphite?
mark said they reduced the rewards from kingsmarch unless you're fulfilling the quotas thoughbeithapsperchancethinks
>>558735608no the description is >Ore Deposits in Area grant Smelted Bars instead of Marking Ore
So Saboteur good now?
If they left mirror sharts in to be obtained with ore I will literally quit day 2 and not look back.
>>558735556refinement still works with sulphite but doubt its worth with the smelter change
did they still not add the christmas box to poe1?
>>558735713retard
The effort I put into league starting has been decreasing over the past few leagues, now I feel like I know little to nothing about the game.
Ive played since metamorph league and I still dont know how to tell if a build is good or bad. I always use purity of elements. I honestly dont know why you wouldnt, the ele res is nice but the ailment immunity is giga based.
>>558735675With Rolling Magma or Lightning Trap, sure.
>>558735783don't need ailment immunity if you kill everything before it hits you
>>558735783getting ele res is too easy nowadays, people only use purity of elements in memebuilds filled with uniques
>>558735783Ele res is easy to get and there's plenty of ways of getting ailment/shock immunity since you can just pantheon freeze and ignite is whatever except in very particular situations or bosses
So they shitcanned Earthshatter.What to leaguestart next? Sunder? Slayer Bleed Slam? I was going to pivot into LC but Elementalist got shitcanned too with the Golem nerfs.I have never played a Wander, I know they're all the talk but I don't know anything about them.Is it really LA for me? What do people do with it? It used to be LA then swap into TS but that got shitcanned too (and I never liked TS anyway).
>>558735783good builds are all jugg which ignores chill/freeze, has too much defense for shocks to stick, and too much regen for ignites to ever matter.
>>558736028Flicker Strike
>>558736028CYCLONEYCLONE
>>558735783ailment immunity usually isn't worth the 50% mana reservation.
My league starter will be using foulborn rathpith. Yes I will be RMTing it. No you can't stop me. GGG hasn't banned anyone for buying items in 2 years.
>>558735771Same I go in haphazardly. I think I lost the interest in being very competitive and well prepared because I've been there, done that, and accomplished that experience.
>>558736156Obviously they won't ban people they are selling to
Would
kinda lame that all skill changes are for templar and the rest of us have to play the same skill again
>>558736028Smite Slayer/Scion is still there.
>>558736028just go for whatever meme build jungroan shits out in the next couple days
>>558736253If Rue tells you that Orb of Storms of Squalls was the new meta skill, and spoonfed you an optimized PoB with 50 million DPS, you would play that new skill. You're really just complaining about a lack of spoonfeeding.
>>558714182>you can have 10 anoints nowso what build is this useful for
is expedition worthwhile? never played it, thinking I should give it a try for once
>>558736063Reddit build
>>558736721ugly boy
>>558736608mana stacker? totems? idk what else has nodes scattered across opposite ends of the tree
>>558737073reddit reply
>>558718472I feel like delve knowledge has been lost over time, fossil price inflation should be nice
can you freeze uber bosses?
Hmmyeah I'm just gonna go with the obvious and league start with Pyroclast Mine Rely
Do people still do Jugg Boneshatter of Complex Trauma?
So how do I survive blight? I find i usually just die whenever I do it.
so how many of these new features will make it to poe2's new endgame?
>>558737759play minions or totems and you can almost afk it
>>558737759anything with explode or prolif as always. or just 100 million dps, that works too.
>all these nerfs in a pve maintenance mode gamewho raped mark?
>>558736248rue is le cat xD
>>558737508Yes it's just overshadowed with better options for melee.
>>558725495I thought that shit was wiz8 before I read the thumbnail lol
>>558738328But those are nerfed now, aren't they?Unless nerfed Slams are still better than Boneshatter...
which build would jeffrey epstein play if drumpf didn't kill him in jail in his first term?
>>558738596well he isn't dead, so
>>558737759chill tower annoint
>>558738539It's still better, similar to how they would always nerf seismic trap but it didn't matter until they really killed it. The slayer version can be extremely tanky too.
>>558735551This is sovl
another patch of benefitting from GGG employees complete inability to understand middle school math.
>>558737759you do giga damage at range and move
>>558738929>not 100% Not hard-core viable.
This discussion is nice, but are you really not gonna play the new skills during a new skill league?
>>558738929>4kk dpsEnjoy your 20 min clearing t16 deathless
i will make divine ire work this time for sure
>>558737759CIStack ice, stone, and imbue towers rank 3 (no rank 4) in chokes, use the ice towers freeze for 0.2 seconds anoint.Use meteor towers with burning ground anoint for damage.
I'm so sick and tired of 99% percent of the good nodes on the tree being top left to top right and literally only shit at the south side
which builds for scion this league
>>558737759chill towers freeze anoint (silver and opalescent)meteor towers burning ground anoint (violet and indigo)spam those + t3 empowering towers
My Jiquani build might just be dead. I don't think it's worth messing around with when I could just not hold a staff instead.
>>558739227thats the day 1 build using 1c uniques, it scales up decently well after that since agony already has exponential scaling built-in with virulence triple-dipping between flat, % increased, and attack speed.it's not gonna be doing billions of dps but for a comfy hold down cyclone 1 button build that's plenty for me especially with t17s dead
I'm so sick and tired of cold dot being dead
>>558739592Cold dot has a trap now, however
Spark scion, thoughts? With the new 100% quiver bonus.
>>558739592yeah it was pretty cool in like 3.16 before vortex on leftclick got destroyed and the skill got owned>>558739527quitter. you don't deserve to harness JIQUANI'S POTENTIAL
More evidence the Maraketh are completely justified with their treatment of the Faridun.just like the Oriathans with the Karui.

>have to give up +1 skill gem level for level 1 support.
>>558739584Post the full PoB or fuck off
>>558739907Why?
>>558735551i trick at least one pooegger into playing my shitty meme builds every league
>>558739997it's obviously a triple lucky glad block cyclone HoAg build
>Always crit>+res shrine beltIs this the new mageblood?
>can't use flasks
>>558740327you lose a lot with mageblood though>no ailment immune >no giga movespeed>no armor/evasion/leech/stun immunity/curse effect reduction100% crit isnt' even that hard to get for some builds so diamond shrine is baby currency tier. You'd want acceleration or echo if possible
Explosive arrow or cyclone
>shields are still 100% a downgrade to using two handed weapons as leap slam jumps over obstacles and having a second 6 link is much better than having 2 3 linksthey will never fix the deep flaws the game has
>>558739584you know, you can buy vis mortis with built in unholy might and give your Hoag free 100% chaos convert and 25% wither chance on hit.
>>558740669holy retard
>>558740669is this bait
>>558740756I'm right, you're wrong, nigger
>>558740327You can also scale shrine effect and gain even more +max resist.
>>558740669Holy based
>>558736721god i love looking at women
having 2 6-links outweights any shield benefits, specially now that they nerf block every new league
The issue with /pooegg/ is that I know some of you people are stupid enough to believe what you say.
why do we need 2 6 links?
the best ruthless ascension just got buffed pretty hard, maybe it's the league to play the baldovision mode
>>558739919CoC FRoSS enjoyers are literally SALIVATING thinking about getting FREE 100% crit multi. Especially since they don't need that imbue on the FRoSS gem itself
>>558740983nobody even uses the second 6 link
>>558740573100% crit is bonkers because it's the same as the surfcaster node, meaning you get crit on herald hits and explosions too, not just attack/spells.
>>558741150Which ascension is that?
>>558741293guardian
>>558740046>free far shot that applies to spells (they changed it)>tailwind + the DR if you spec for it>either +2 proj or +1 chain>mark effectdeadeye starts at a really shitty spot on the tree, but yeah. widowhail deadeye goes brr. scion is still bestgirl, so do what you want to!
>>558741260didn't surfcaster end up not working on heralds?
>>558740983Based. I personally always go staff for block chance AND the extra 6 link. You would have to be stupid not to do this.
>>558741343I am strongly considering it now, I want to try the new skills in ruthless.
>>558741610>>558741610>>558741610>>558741610new
>>558741390Didn't actually play it myself in phrecia, but I heard people saying both that it works and that it doesn't.Wiki says that the surfcaster node might not be crit = 100% but instead something like 9900% increased critical chance, in which case you would need to find a small bit of flat crit somewhere to make it work.
Where the fuck is begger anon? He made so many people seethe last league. What are you playing?
>>558740983yeah no you've clearly never played with a shaper shield or aegis before
>>558740725Yeah I've been looking at that as an option. The high-end for this build uses rigwalds to give double damage via fortification and +2 skill level but thats expensive since everyone wants the fortifiy flesh and flames, theyre like 15 div now even at end of league. prior to that you just use a 7-link body armor like lioneyes or vis mortis or use another source of fortify since cyclone is a melee skill. rigwalds is surprisingly cheap for how much damage it gives since it's such a narrow item, I guess in theory it's designed for impale Master of Metal minion champion. If you're using a scepter like Dark Seer you can get a Cluster with Overlord to fortify from cyclone instead of flesh and flame but I haven't tested how good that is, you might also need spiritual aid to actually do enough damage to trigger fortification but it's so much extra damage it's 100% worth finding some source of fortify. it's like 25% chance to do double damage that stacks with crit chance and crit multi
>>558740669block is retardedly overpowered in both poe1 and poe2 and they go ahead and also give shields great prefixes and suffixes and stupidly strong uniquesunless your build requires a 2h weapon to function there's very little reason not to use a shield whenever possible, they're just so much free survivability
>>558742076you can get block on 2handed staffs, and spell dodge, and it's like 15 points to max it all out (on the tree)
>>558740669Bro your staff?
>>558730001new belt will be absolutely insane
finished reading patch notesseems like a nerft league to me?
>>558735893literally me
>>558740983dis niga eats BEANS
