what got buffed
Diamond Shrine gives you access to stuff like Marylene and Winds of Fate.The "muh 100% crit isn't hard to get" people have to be trolling or retarded
>>558741775rmt
how much EHP is enough to reach lvl 100 without hating yourself for getting one shotted all the time?
sucks the tree was nerfed but i think ill try ssf this league
comparison is the thief of joy
>>558741843EHP doesn't matter
delve bwoswho yearns for the mines
>>558741919I always say I'm going to delve and then hit around depth 300-400 and bail. Maybe this will be the league I finally stick with it.
huge Shako and Crest of Desire buffs that were primarily held back by link slots
>>558741775guardian is a lot less annoying to play with permanent radiant sentinel and 36% more movespeed on it, youll still probably want convocation though. Vaal Absolution was already good and got a 50% damage buff and 40% aoe increase
I'm thinking the holy strike minion skill

>>558742380bangeri hardly know her
>>558741797>use any flask>crit drops to 0
>>558742490it is "while affected by flasks" so you can bypass the restriction entirely by just using an instant life/mana flask or tinctures if the downside was "if you haven't used a flask recently" that would be a lot more punishing.....but as is you can just use any flask that doesnt apply a buff.
>Shrine belt finally made Explosive Concoction endgame viable
>adding holy skills>perfect time to add a new holy element that opposites chaos>AKSHUALLY, ISSA LIGHTNING!creatively bankrupt company, chris would be ashamed
>>558742490>instant flasks>tinctures>lets you take the poison immune & +1 ring ascendancy
post your 3.28 face
>>558742657adding a new element would be insanely cancer
>>558742657And monsters will have to deal holy damage and then you'll need sources of holy penetrative and holy resistance.
>>558742657Sorry, the tech just isn't there yet.
>>558742724
>>558742657we forgot how to do it...
can an experienced delvechad explain to a delvenoob where the money actually comes from this mechanic? seems like all the deep delvers end up insanely rich and I dont know enough about delve to understand how
>>558742657do you actually want even more suffix pressure on equipment to now need 75% holy resist to avoid being one shot by Innocencesmiting people with Lightning was good enough for YHWH and Zeus it's good enough for these shithole fantasy australian gods
>>558743282next league it's gonna be the only source of fossils in the game, these are useful for crafting https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Fossil
Ive never done delve >dig deep into Niko's hole Sounds really gay tbqh. Id much rather do maps.
The new holy stuff is just to beta test it for poe2. The correct play is to not use any of it so they get as little feedback as possible, because fuck poo2.
REMOVE HARBINGER remove harbinger you are worst league. you are the league idiot you are the league smell. return to other dimension. to our other dimension cousins you may come our wraeclast. you may live in the menagerie….ahahahaha ,we will never forgeve you
my build is all planned.. i need the atlas tree json... please...
What's the bet GGG forgot to update the atlas hideout with the new atlas layout?
>>558744209"forgot"
They were way too blue
now that i played d2, i think i realize my problem with poe is: the campaign is not randomized enough in meaningful ways and it's too linear and too fucking long
mamba deadwhat will be s tier now
>>558743282Early league deep delvers are usually part of a group, you can definitely get there but it will take a lot of workMoney comes from special fossil nodes (fractured glyphic etc) which give fossils that have always been exclusive to delve, and boss drops if the meta favours themMaking all fossils exclusive to delve incentives casual delve gameplay where you actually hunt for fossil stashes behind fractured walls as you go down the mines instead of rushing deep delve. It might even be a decent alternative to deep delve if your build is not strong enough and you want to delve. Fossil crafting may be more popular if frac orbs are more common too
>>558744941We'll see how nerfed the Breach tree is, too. Being able to shit out triple T1 ES gear was devaluing dense fossils.
>>558743282Delve doesn't really make money, and I mean that. It is mostly a mechanic to push your character. Fossils will be worth more next league though.

Should I go Ice Crash or Holy Hammer slam jammer?
Want to play Occultist next patch. I miss dem pops. What's a good starter? Seismic + exsang maybe?
cant you corrupt the new annoint belt and use a tainted mythic orb on it for a MB
>>558745392No
there will be a new unique anoint belt
o it has to be the same base type
>KBoC didn't get tubbed and will be even stronger this league Cheers lads, gonna play it again, very fun fucking skill
I need a streamer to tell me why I should be excited for 3.28
I wish they kept this in the game lel
so is maven still in this new atlas?
stacking life regen always feels comfy
Has anyone informed Jonathan that his absence has brought the greatest joy the POE community has had since the launch of POE2?
>you can run any map you want on repeat>vaults are quadrant specific
Toxic Sewer is gone and so am I. Fucking retards.
>>558746261jonathan derangement syndrome
WHat do you think of the holy skills?I'm thinkering with holy strike. That hallow flame thingy feels like a trap since every hit one of the minion would swing and jsut remove a charge, so the +1 max charge is useless, and while the extra physicl as lightning sounds good hallow itself is fire damage so it's akward for resistance/pengimme some ideas here
>>558746583use rakiatas dance to invert resistances to ignore that problem entirelythe minions use your weapon so they should inherit the resistance inversion as well
I am going to watch the 3 hour 22.5 min gog video of him going over the patch notes.
>>558746760you can regain control of your life and not do ityou can
Would selling 8-mod waystones and T17 waystones, if they exist in POE1, be as effective of a moneymaker?
>>558746583I think it'd just be easier to use the non minion ones. Not sure if I want to go Sweep or Holy Hammers. But I'm not to sure how to get good attack lightning damage that's not converted.
I'm not feeling it this league, nothing excites me.
>>558746760Watch it at double speed and you get a whole hour back
do conq and elder guardian maps work on any map now? or do they still roll a specific map?
Now they just need to make the map runners be paid in dust or ores and the game is fixed.
>>558746727holy stirke needs mace or staff. All the new holy skill do. Hallow support does too but the guardian ascendency doesn't mention it so he only could use it with axe, sword, or imo wolf summon claw i forgot the name of
update the path of building already
>STILL NO WASDmy wrist cant take it..
guess I'll play pconc again
>>558747231>holy stirke needs mace or staffwell thats 100% confirmation this dogshit is beta testing for poe2uhhhhh I guess you could doryani's prototype and then go armor+enduring composure endurance charges
>>558747264ergonomic mouse. best decision I have ever made
>>558747264I play on controller.Sucks getting old but honestly it's the only way I can play now.
>new holy skills are poe2 coded
>>558747264buy a controller
>>558743953harbi is good for beyond spam for xp, why would it need to be removed? you can just not run it, the blue men can stay.
>got rid of chisels>engineers orbs still exist
>>558747419harbi is shit, rewards were shit and xp you can get in abyss, breach, shrines, boxes, expedition and more
>>558747382>>558747395inventory management on controller is turbo aids
>>558747264WASD is even worse for your wrist than mouse is, you realize that, right?
>>558747486harbi xp is better than what you described, and it's way more braindead so i prefer it. why would they need to go when you can just select what you wanna run and choose not to run harb?
>>558747514Yeah that part does suck, honestly it would be fine if I could switch to m/kb on the fly but you need to log out. Still I'll take being able to play over having wrist pain for a game.
>>558747264wristcel bwos...
>>558747542nah, vanilla D2 fucks my mouse wrist hard but PD2 wasd spreads the load on each to a tolerable level
wtf does this mean for follow through
What's the easiest way to generate power charges without the power charge on crit gem?
>>558747264I play with Q being my move, W frostblink, E shield charge, and one actual damage skill on Rthe mouse hand only right clicks a curse or a mark or nothing
fellow wristcels, bind move to spacebar
>>558747743i mean it doesnt mention anything about a cap right now so....
>>558747827Probably Stormrider notable from clusties.
Autoexert bros what the fuck do we do?
>>558747918This. I don't have any frequent action bound to my mouse.
all the holy skills look so fucking cool I cant pick one
>>558747735The issue isn't the movement, the issue the hand position. you position both hands in a bad way when you use wasd. The issue is having your hand vertical, not horizontal, which twists your forearm bones and is an issue.
>>558748232Holy Strike with a side of Dominating Blow looks pretty kino
what do i do for 7 days
>>558741919I do delve a lot on standard
>>558748584mmo
>>558748584random mmo private server preferably a pvp one
They added waystones to poe1 for what? To ruin the mapping experience? Which braindead streamer they listened to this time?
Poo1 eos when?
>open carn stream>MERDE SACRE BLEU THEY NERFED LE SLAMS >NOW I WILL HAVE TO USE SUPPORTS OTHER THAN AUTOEXERTION>close carn stream
>>558748915retard
>>558748584play motherfuckin KENSHI
>>558748915they "listened to" octavian. it's clear they like where poo2 is, no matter the hate the game is getting - they are probably trying to appease poonathan by pretending (HIS) ideas are good when they are dogshit
>>558748998
i am just going to farm legions
>>558749068I tried playing it, it's too fucking hard, idk where to begin and start making currency
>>558748974Soon hopefully
>>558748974You lost
>>558749259noob problem
>>558748915How is the mapping experience ruined?>you go up the tiers too fastYou can make a beeline straight to T16 in POE1 right now if you wanted. It's not particularly effective and you will want to go back and clear as many maps as possible for Atlas points, which you still must do in 3.28.You're not locked to any one map branch you took because horizon orbs easily changes your maps. That's just waystones with extra steps.
This has the potential to be one of the best leagues ever
>>558742657adding a new element after all this time would be fucking huge and peeps would be hyped as all hellGearing would be fucked for a bit, but fun is fun
>>558749484Thanks, reddit.
Someone give me a generic slayer strike tree. I want to try out a few elemental strike skills.
>>558749380How's the mapping experience ruined? Because it's become closer to poe2. That's what ruined it. It's not enough the poe2tards aren't playing the fucking game they're simping for, they gotta turn poe1 into dogshit as well. That's what's ruined it.
>>558749484Yup, it's kino.The new skills are usable.The mechanic is quick.Atlas shakeup.Now I need something to do for a week
>>558742657didn't they already add "holy" beforeholy flame totem and divine irethe gimmick was innate phys conversion to fire / lightningdid they forget that and just make them pure lightning now or what
>>558749648You grab the frenzy charges, the fortify and additional strike wheel, crit, some life, the mark wheel for culling strike.
>>558749259if you're a noob starting as a slave is actually decent since it will let you grind your stats in safety
>>558749872no that anon is retarded they're still innate phys to fire/lightning
Fubgun@FubgunOne of the best Path of Exile patches we've had in a very long time, only disappointment was lack of balance changes (we need more buffs to underused skills).Really excited for the atlas changes. Probably league starting bows with t16 being the place to farm once again.
>>558749981yeah or cannibal hunters as scorchlander/hive. take off all the gay shit that slows you down and they can't catch you if you run like 19-20 mph, and you start with higher skills, some in the 20's. just run to the water and dab on their ass, and rob armor king if you really want nice gear to train in early. but y'know... omg2hard>.<
>bowcuck playing bowsThanks for the update
can i get a tldr on ben's opinion so i know if i should like the league?https://youtu.be/CuAT-wUeIr4
>>558750172>One of the best Path of Exile patches we've had in a very long time, only disappointment was lack of the only thing anyone wantslol
>>558750295no t17s is the balance update
>>558750330Unironically yes i was listening to Rue talk about this and he’s right. T17 warped meta around them so much. The mods and the archetyped and builds they bricked just made some skills not very popular because nobody wants to be farming T16s anymore
Was it sabotaged?
>>558750546poe2 wasbecause whos gonna wanna play it after this poe1 update
>>558750546'fraid so
>>558750281There's an exclamation mark in the title, so I assume he's happy.
>>558750281He's got psyopsed by the ground loot conversation
>>558750281He's happy he doesn't have to play slams anymore.
tldw did they say anything about ground loot?
I want to play this new slam holy skill... any recommendations on what to do?
When new gems in pob?
>>558748584new resident evil I guess
>>558750979Yes, they basically buffed currency drops from random mobs. This is combined with gambling, the breach tree, and shipping having less 'luck' to their rolls. Item printers got worse, ground loot did get better. Not sure if it will mean tile meta is gone though.
>>558748584build temple
>>558751169is shipping nerfed? i felt like i missed out like crazy last league considering it's free mirror shards
>>558751180I would rather die
Marathon killed the Mirage momentum
>>558750330>>558750295seriously t17 mods were unbelievably cancer, combined with the limited layouts they funneled people into a handful of builds to avoid wanting to rip their hair out. if the ceiling for content is t16s build variety enormously opens up as other factors open up, the gameplay difference between doing 10 million vs 50 million vs 500 million dps is hugely reduced without t17s
I have no idea what to play. Was thinking static strike, but looking at poe ninja most people are just using it as a vehicle for doryiani's memes. Actually building one out with basic gear got me like a laughable 600k DPS on Slayer and I got like 1.5M on Warden but Slayer has 100k EHP and Warden has... well, just don't get hit.I also was playing around with the idea of call of the brotherhood + heatshiver. It was like 3M DPS on a warden but the defenses are, once again, laughable.Aside from that I really am not sure. I feel like bows are gonna be omega expensive with every juicer going for them. Shan't be playing slams again (even if there were no nerfs). Self cast feels like a meme right now.
>>558751315ores got swapped with crops so you actually have to do the league mechanic to get currencies from shipments
is the pledge of hands change a nerf?
so do you just use 5 instant life flasks with this or what?
>>558751315They swapped crops and ore which is the best thing to do. Now you cannot get mirror shards by going AFK for a week. You have to get ore to send out shipments for currency.They made the random piles of gear you get from the shipments + gambling 'worse' but we don't know by how much.
>>558751445you stupid retard
>>558751427need to see what greater spell echo does first
>>558751445Play warden and use 2x Tinctures.
>>558751445instant life or hybrid flasks and tinctures. also use the bloodline ascendancy giving you +1 ring slot since it has the same downside so you double dip
>>558750172>Fubgooner says loginDoomers lost, oh my..
>>558751315I spent 0 gold on shitsmarch last league and only put enough gold for the disenchants. Completed my builds, bought 2 magebloods, bought multiple bound by destinies etc. Shitsmarch isn't all that needed to be honest.
Too obsessed with the changed breachlord bloodline and making surfcaster ehit 2.The problem is I think it has to be a warden, and I think it has to wear a shitty yoke.
>>558751427no one knows what the difference is between level 1 and level 30 greater spell echokind of doubt it's a nerf though, pledge of hands wasn't especially popular.
>Voltaxic Rift Unique Bow now has Treats Enemy Monster Chaos Resistance values as inverted
>>558751392i agreei spent forever making a plan for a build that could yolo all the fucked mods. didn't even get to maps that league because it just wasn't a fun skill despite being objectively strong.
>>558751025The clear looks pretty nice
I'll play a meme scion build and probably quit when I hit level 90
>>558751392I wonder what it means for valdo maps though, are they gonna have the modifiers that got removed in 3.28? like the periodic damage shit?
Why did they pre-nerf the widowhail node in reliquarian?
The base damage of this seems tiny even with the two mores taking into account.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1GNCwwqJCe4
>>558751419>>558751469that's great news >>558751545i did fine as well but it was just objectively mega worth it to use kingsmarch no matter what
>>558751469>>558751419oh good. I remember the meta was to just pay for gold service week 1 then let it bake for the rest of the leaguetried to farm ore to get random gems and tattoos, but was only kinda worth it
>>558751825It has amazing clear though, it has superior clear to even volcanic fissure of snaking
>>558751825maybe the hammers can overlap and also power charge spending is just 2x damage
>>558751812you could get like 250% reduced proj speed with a unique quiver and turn some skills into black holes melting enemies in one place instead of moving through their hitbox
>>558751554>The problem is I think it has to be a wardenWhy do you say "has", because of hoarfrost? Warden has no defensive power in the ascendancy which kinda sucks in this meta tbqh.I was personally thinking slayer cuz you can frenzy+endurance stack, and the Cryogenesis will make it so that you don't lose out on Ice bite flat damage.It's a bit of a rough choice which nodes to pick on slayer, I'd guess Brutal Fervor, Masterful form and Impact when you have Cryogenesis, but impact might be negotiable if you just get aoe elsewhere like on clusters.
>>558751963So what? They rotate it out next league anyways
>Holy Strike>Foulborn Ngamahu idk>Lots of orbsIdk i'm not gonna play it
>>558751839she's not gonna date you
pooe status?
>>558751812wtf where did they post that
Maces or staffs for holy skills?
>>558752504https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1rfowc6/labeled_reliquarian_for_328/>Hey, just an update on this one. The Widowhail node has been changed since the showcase in the livestream, and the Howlcrack node has been replaced with Brass Dome. We will fully reveal the Reliquarian on Monday (NZT).
>>558752331It won
>>558752008It's gotta be dex side to have enough dex and it's good if the ascendancy is shitty since you need a bloodline.I figure 2 tinctures and an oath that works should do the job.I think if that fell through I'd be a boring shit and try doing champ with perseverance or just salvage it into a deadeye.I think defenses are way overrated with T17s DELETED, you can play glass if you just cap chaos res and get some avoidance.
Whats widowhail now? 100% didn't seem absurd
>>55875298330%
>>558752950>It's gotta be dex side to have enough dexYou can skew attributes with tats and gear, especially on a duelist though.>I think defenses are way overrated with T17s DELETED, you can play glass if you just cap chaos res and get some avoidanceI think this game will have some absolutely degen juicing. You've seen the rogue exile scarab.
do i get baiting into trying to make some inquis conc path//holy hammer build work or do i play kboc and have fun
What are the chances a 1 handed mace is gonna cut it for holy strike? Cause that's pretty paladin coded
Bros... slams are dead ...
>>558753079No fucking way lmao
>>558752819yeah i don't think there are real people balancing this game anymore
>>5587531930% cuz the little macelings inherit weapon properties and I don't see how you can compete with 2h when they won't inherit a lot of special damage properties that would apply to you only.
>jung gets a developer interview>cutedog doesnt???
>>5587533181 is enough for the bug quota
>>558753318cutedog is too busy gooning
>>558742657who would corrupt monsters use holy magic, you utter imbecile
>>558753307
No WASD, no play.
All I'm seeing is a bunch of nerfs
>>558753152I never juice I just rush betrayal and ores alch and go DP until I jackpot.Ores are boats now so sulphite converted by meticulous appraiser is your 50m shipments.Plus kalguuran refinement if it's affordable.Only spanner in the works is chisels are deleted so the consistent maven chisel drop from DP and jun in transport are gone and idk what's replacing them.
>>558753516>who would corrupt monstersI would
>>558753587that scarab is like t0 rarity
>>558748584poe + vampire survivors had a baby
>>558753587I think maven chisels are still around, it's just the normal chisel that got shitted on
>>558753587>I never juice I just rush betrayal and ores alch and go DP until I jackpot.Based, that playstyle got buffed now that you can get foulborns from It That Fled, looking forward to that myself desu.
finished reading patch notesseems like a nerf league to me?where is the borrowed power?
new belt is nutty
>>558753940your 7 link, sis?
>>558753940No t17s is a super massive black hole sized buff to all builds
did i misunderstand or can you just straight up pick what maps you want now?
>>558753940right here in my pants
Is this a good combo?
>>5587540006,5 linknowhere near what grafts did
>>558754030you still have to unlock them by doing connected maps first like normal
>>558753994The belt is Diamond Shrine.
>>558754030Yeah. Map is a generic map and you plug it into the atlas to choose what area you open.So trading for 8 mods and shit is now many magnitudes easier.
>>558753940Your anoint belt?
>>558753940It's a bunch of nerfs. Literal sabotage league. Not only nerfs but they added more poe2 shit into the game where there was no problems. Like maps.
>>558754048I don't think so
>>558754128i just realised that too, no longer need to fucking pick a specific map type so farming 8mods/buying them will be so fucking comfy
>>558754030yes, although you will still want to complete the atlas by doing 100+ different regular maps, all pinnacles, and running 10 different unique maps to get all 130+ atlas passive points but once your atlas is done maps are now waystones like poe2 and you can just run your favorite layout 1000 times since you slot the waystone into the atlas node rather than layouts being itemized
>/poeg/ genuinely can't cope with base POE difficulty without grafts and an item printerjust kek
Make your wish poeggers
mirage looks fucking awful wtf
>>558754048No. The belt and amulet slots are insanely powerful.
had mana problems?prepare for added mana multipliers from 6th level 1 support...
>>558754621>imbued by level 1 inspiration support
>>558754621>had mana problems?nope, I'm playing vaal eq and not really using mana
I might just play cyclone with lifetap stuck to it.
>>558754661this dismisses my point how?
>>558754621>imbued with level 1 lifetap support
>>558754769retard missing the point
>>558751825Skills with huge areas have tiny pp numbers by design, theyre made for builds that have some other denegerate source of a gorillion damage and they just want whatever skill covers the most area, thats why dogshit skills like Reave exist.
>>558754849>>558754727retard
pick 3enemies in a circlethey cooked
>>558754859What would be a good way to give the holy skills a gorillian damage?
>>558754890what about literally all other possible imbues? not a problem cause you thought of two outliers? fuck off, nerd.
>Terminus Est Scion AscendencyYet another Frenzy Strike league!
Only having to do 10/20 unique maps is a major aura LI always enjoyed progressing the atlas at league start, revisiting every unique map always hit me with a dose of nostalgia. And now? Just removing friction for removing frictions sake. No consideration for role playing, for fun, for quirkyness, for vibes
Please post your leaguestart so I can copy
>>558755027Ofcourse, but you wont just take the first imbue that comes your way. You know your desirable hits, you know your settles, you know your bricks. Its not complicated, its just like corrupting a gem for 21/20. Youre not a child you can plan your build
>>558742657Before I rolled a Doryani's Prototype character and instantly died to Baran I was sure he dealt Holy Damage.
>>558741610I play since beta and I think it's the first time I didn't watch the new league announcement live stream.Have fun without me, guys. I'm free from the maze.
>>558754727retard
>>558754128>>558754231how will this work with 8-mod maps considering they're corrupted? can you still pick the map when it's corrupted?
>>558755259yes. the new items are like waystones from poe2, they do not have an attached map. theyll work the same as corrupted waystones do in poe2
>>558755184still missing the point that with extra mana costs this is less of a buff than everyone thinks it is
>>558755259it's literally same as before but now the map is "empty" and you just choose what tile you wanna run on atlas
I haven't heard anyone suggest this so maybe i'm alone but they should really just have a pick a random map feature. I'm not running crimson square everytime but searching through the atlas to find a map also seems annoying. I'm sure it evens out in the end when you have meta goals but in the mid game i think it will be lame
>>558754621do items that give 7 links increase cost and reservation? I dont think I've ever checked but my first assumption is they don't and it's free if you dont have the actual gem socketed.
>>558755389Done using the atlas keystone(s).
>>558755320>>558755383i know a lot of people don't like it when they remove friction, but this honestly sounds amazing. this just means more time is being spent mapping
>>558755367retard...
>>558755402they do
>>558754928the easy but rippy way: wear doryani's prototype with -200% lightning resistance and full lightning conversionthe hard way: get several hundred divines worth of synthesized+influenced+crafted gear that would let literally anything instantly phase ubers
I haven't played since Metamorph (zombies)How many items do I need to manually craft to the point I can alch and go t16s now
>>558755237no one will miss you
>>558755448it makes buying maps in bulk so much easier now too or even farming them yourself so much easier
>>558755507none really as long as you know what you're doing. you can get to red maps with leveling uniques and random shit from gambling
Storm brand anyone...?
>>558754123builds that go crit do so anyways at 100% uptime. the belt is everything BUT crit
POOP
I didnt even properly pay attention to this frostmage support but it calculates based of your reserved mana, thats pretty interesting. So if you reserve 90% mana this is 20% added damage of your max mana, which is 25% more DPS than a lvl 20 archmage
>>558755510I think you'll do
>>558755770The tradeoff is it kills your Arcane Cloak and MoM. Also no Indigon. Probably still better but after the general aura nerf and the Hatred rework what do you even reserve on archmage other than Grace. I guess generic shit like Flesh and Stone and Arctic Armour.
>>558755770they didn't put this in the patch ntoes
>>558755770It's interesting but keep in mind archmage builds tend to use arcane cloak, so you lose that.I'm sure this will see some use though.>>558755903Haste baby
>>558755770But you'd need a hefty amount of regen to recoup the 5% reserved mana cost each time you cast it.
>>558755903All true actually, seems a pretty big tradeoff
>>558755903you dont go mom you go guardian ES
Yeah so "voltaxic" means half lightning and half chaos and "holy" means half lightning half physical. Can cold and fire get something? No fuck you
>>558755974Just get the new belt with Replenishing Shrine.
>>558755974This bad boy with Lavianga's
>>558755770You get to benefit from Guardian radiant faith like crazy tho10k mana with 90% reservation is 2250 base armour and 900 base ESThen FF jewels for sanctuary of thought
>>558756245>10k mana with 90% reservation is 2250 base armour and 900 base ESthat's barely anything for that level of investment and if you have 10k mana you're not gonna be drowning in inc. energy shield.
>>558756245I think you'd be better off going Hiero and FF'ing Radiant Faith
>>558756245I'd rather do it the other way around. What does guardian even give besides that? Regen and block? I'd rather have my charges and arcane surge.Also Sanctuary of Thought FF is guaranteed to be expensive while Radiant Faith might fly under the radar.
>>558756324Well its not for nothing, you have a shit ton of damage from frostmage support and you get 900 base ES which is definitely not nothing, that would roughly give you 33% more ES in general, and you get to reserve mana which i agree doesnt look insanely juicy but its still good
>>558756504Im not gonna lie the first thing that comes to mind is a bit of a stretch, but they reworked the bloodline for Aul, so now to get the benefit of 50% increased effect of both auras you only need to invest in minimum charges. So if you have +3 minimum frenzy charges and no maximum charges and you pick aul you get constant 50% increased effect of hatred and grace (for example), and then the 50% increaseed reservation efficiency from guardian looks very tempting
does anyone use an autoflasker here? which one?
>>558756540The question is whether that level of performance justifies the investment in that direction, instead of in a different direction.900 base ES isn't nothing but it's not everything on its own either, especially since you didn't get it for free, but by committing to an ascendancy and getting 10k mana first.Again I think the support has potential and maybe there's also virtue in playing it on Guardian, just don't oversell it. There are very many things I would trade 900 base ES and 2k armour for.
Enough chit chat. Let's get down to the knitty gritty, what supporter pack is /poeg/ buying?
>>558756839None, they both look shit.
>>558756839None, as always
>>558756839The pirate one is ok but that shit is like 100 aud for the armour
the real endgame is in using the bloodline ascensions but you chuddies are not ready for this conversation
>>558756802Just gathering thoughts thats all, always fun to discuss new gems, looking for things im missing or things others think about it. Keep in mind at level 1 (exceptional support can go to 3 and corrupted to 4) it's 22% of unreservd mana. If it can go up to 25%, which would be roughly 33% more damage than archmage, thats also not something to sleep on
>>558756949They all fucking suck
WHAT THE FUCK
>>558756949Real endgame is when I can reflect 2 rings with the 3rd ring slot from the bloodline ascendancy but Jonatahan is not ready for that conversation yet.
>If Intelligence is your single highest Attribute, all added Damage is treated as added Lighting DamageI'm sorry, but isn't this absolutely broken?
>>558758089In poo2 it would be yea
>>558758089>added damage
From my understanding, Divine and Exalted orbs have historically had an identical drop rate, right?GGG are pretty secretive with exact drop rates but I think they have gone on record before to say that they have the same weighting in the currency pool, and that's been common knowledge ever since.This patch note makes that historic info outdated.
>>558758181They were up until this league (3.27)It was pretty obvious from day 2 that they either nerfed div drop rates or buffed exalt drop rates
so are there only 4 astrolabes they showed or does every mechanic gets one?
>>558758173just get the tree to shit out a trielement weapon and convert it all to lightning
I'm gonna leaguestart with new skill and if it's bad I quit the league, like always
>>558758298It obviously isn't going to work with local mods dipshit, nobody would ever play anything but rebukes of the vaal otherwise
>>558758298again>added damage
>>558758089Depends on how it interacts with elemental hit.
Was planning on going Mamba again...The fuck do I play now
>>558758661you're gonna copy another build from another streamer
>>558758661mamba with a 2h
>>558758623If this works with ehit (it should) what you want to do is the cold conversion with dex and rerun surfcaster.
>The Pledge of Hands Unique Staff now has Socketed Gems are Supported by Level 1 Greater Spell Echo (previously level 30). This change affects existing versions of the item. This staff now also has 50-100% increased maximum Mana (previously 50%), and existing items can be updated to these new values using a Divine Orb.This should be the old awakened spell echo with the extra repeat. If it's cheap it'd be an insane midgame archmage weapon.
>>558758245I had no idea. Can I read more about this?
>>558758886Not that I know, for some reasont it wasnt discussed much despite everyones pilfering rings having far more exalts than divines, which never happened before

So like where the outrage? Is everyone this soft that they just let them fuck over the perfect endgame and replace it with poo2's horseshit?
wow the map pool is so fucking ass in 3.28
>>558760080We like poo2 (when its in poo1)
>>558760080What's there to be outraged about? The only complaint is that its really more of the same. The stuff they iterated on seemed ok
>>558759658Poo2 is the more casual game, yes. The astrolabe alone is more complex than the entirety of poo2's map system.
>>558760080It's functionally the same endgame as before but with more juicing and with map selection QoL.I can't say I felt that these changes were needed to begin with but I don't even see any downsides currently.
>>558760080>reused mirage VFX from poe 2>reused mirage animations from poe 2>resued mirage UI from poe 2>reused mirage textures from poe 2>reused mirage endgame rework from poe 2If you want actual original content in your game you're gonna have to have a more popular game to justify the development costs. The future in poo1 will continue being asset reuses and design copies from the popular game, because thats what financially makes sense.

>>558760080The league and endgame rework look good to me. The only thing i'm mildly disappointed with is skill/character balance in the patchnotes.
You will probably shit on me but is there a site where I can get decent builds? poebuilds used to be the place but now it is filled with people posting their YouTube videos and they all are posting endgame, tryhard stuff.All I want to find is a decent, playable build that features uniques and maybe one of the newer skills.
>>558760634pohx.net
>>558760373It's shit. Owning a specific map putting it in the map device and press go is a different experience than map device opening up your atlas every fucking time then you put a waystone then selecting which map you run. This poe2 dogshit had no place in this game but here you go, retards like you will eat it up as if adding more steps to run a map is somehow a good thing.

>>558759545nah, I'm gonna play the good ascension, the bad one is too hard to make it work
why is everyone hyping for fossils and delve? im too lazy to read the patch notes
>>558760989They are removing all sources of fossils from outside delve so delve will make slightly better money with fossils being more expensive
Lads I think the play is fusillade reliquarian.
Why did they give divine blast 1.5 SECONDS DURATION what the fuck are they smokingIts not like any of the shield skills are insanely popular are broken and this seems to play strictly worse than SST with slightly better damage but way worse clear and QoLLiterally releasing a dead skill for zero reason

>>558761295anon, I...
>>558761295>let me put more point in my second argument to look like it's worse!!holy retard, hopefully you will quit
>>558761396What other negative duration mechanics? And dont tell me glorious madnessIm looking at kinetic fusillade builds and none of them use any other negative duration mechanics other than kinetic fusilladeDivine blast is not a projectile aswell, so you cant use chain or split or fork with it or multiple projectiles. Its just a pathetic little ball that you have to wait 1.5 seconds to deal damage (or 0.9 seconds with less duration support, which is also horrible)
>>558761232You can stack less duration up to like 90% reduction so it's .15 or six per second.And then because this is a less duration build you have comfy lightning warp.It may be the case it has reduced duration from quality then this is just an easily solved problem with ashes of the stars or enlighten or something WEIRD like putting it in crest of desire (buffed because its now a 2 link)
>>558759658should just play minecraft then if it's a popularity issue

>>558760749Thanks, anon. I will check it out once the league starts.
>>558761682>And dont tell me glorious madnessWhy not? Also coiling whisper tech with bladefall of trarthus likes reduced duration for the bladefall.
>>558762040it's faster over long distances but feels super clunky

There's not a single Indian that plays POE.
>>558762658holy melty, didn't even rebuke the 4 stone accusation you're a jeet who never did a single t17 map
>>558762721Ok, Elon
Indians love poo1 because its free to play and easy to RMT and scam and cheat
>>558762605Ironic considering that poo1 copied poe2 endgame mechanics, understandable though, you would want more from the better game, like instant trade feature and various qols
even the top poe1 player Ben thinks these changes to maps are good, you lost :)
is there a chaos skill that does many instances of hit damage instead of one big nuke?
Hyped for the league, no idea what to play.Will go on a breach trip for 4 nights with my wife tomorrow and return 2 days before league starter.Will have lazy days at the pool theory crafting (stealing builds).Life is great.
>>558762875Forbidden rite has a good number of hits. Venom gyre+whirling blades release if you're looking for attacks.
>>558762748Still projecting. Why won't you retards play poe2 if these poe2 changes are so good and amazing to play? Instead there's been 41% player retention because your dogshit game has such a good atlas system right? Am I supposed to respond to your fan-fiction? I'm making legit claims.

>>558756989farruls is really good, it's literally a better version of a trickster notable that was so good it had to be nerfedmost players are just illiterate and if something is in a nested tooltip they simply never read it ever even if it's "better-than-pre-nerf One Step Ahead AKA one of the better notables from what was the single best ascendancy in the game"
>>558763045because they are making divine orbs, exalted orbs twice as common, the sad part is retards not realizing that they will have to pay double for their magebloods and/or rares

Should I forget about boats and just get the mappers, and disenchanters, in Kingsmarch? Refiners bargain got doubletapped and I'm not interested in clicking ore nodes.
is having max spell supression, max res and CI with like 4k ES enough defenses to beat the uber bosses? no I can't get block

If you use phys damage converted to some element, the final damage scales the same with %increased phys/ele/specific element damage, right? But does stacking %phys as extra change it? Like if I convert 100% phys to cold and then add 100% phys as extra cold is 20% increased cold damage still the same as 20% increased phys damage?
>>558764757Assuming 100 phys damageFirst you get 100 base physThe phys as extra gets you 100 base cold damageYou then do 20% extra phys damage, which gets you 120 phys and 100 coldThen you convert all phys to cold so you have 220 coldThen 20% increased cold gets you 264 base cold
>>558764486you do youill be taking my free tabula
>>558764757https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Damage_conversion#Conversion_order>Gain as Extra is calculated on the source damage before it gets converted away by Converted to, and is thus not affected by it.

>>558765312Keep in mind ore farming is one of the mechanics that benefits by far the most from mirage because of the new Kalguuran scarab of enriching which makes every next ore more and more rewarding the more ores you've done in the map. Thats the only reason im hyped to try this stratYou can replace refinement and add another regular kalguuran scarab for 6 guaranteed ore deposits aswell instead of 4
I actually don't like the league mechanic? it's just more stuff to kill, I don't like instances, what I like is all the changes they have done to the end game
Spectres changes are a buff to top end. The spectres that are most played are wretched defilers and Forged Frostbearers both of which deal flat ele and don’t convert. I think primal crush claws would do conversion but they are not meta. AG is indeed a sleeper OP end game build. For those who don’t know, there are several ways to stack an AG’s damage to the moon:Facebreaker, Paradoxica, Voidforge, Replica Dreamfeather (armour stacking).You combine that with stacking abyss jewels which give tons of flat phys, and an explodey chest which solves clear. You solve crit via maata’s teaching and a double influenced helmet craft similar to penance brand helmets.You use AG of smiting and convert all damage to lightning which means you get lucky damage via perfect spirit of fortune.
my first atlas tree will be: maps, shrines, breach, kingsmarch, and then probably destructive play meme with late game maps
you guys told me poe1 was eoswtfi lost so much money on polymarket fuck you guys
So, as someone who hasn't played Phrecia, is the new Scion ascendancy 1 to 1 what she had from that? And is it actually a good ascendancy?
>>558754048Not strong enough to compensate for the opportunity cost. The same problem that most unique items have.
>>558766061No, it's different and they said they are going to change it each league, too.
>>558765961nothing personnel.. I needed that money
>>558766061From what I've seen, it's not the same items and the ones they added looked kinda lame. Early to say though.
>>558766061>is the new Scion ascendancy 1 to 1 what she had from thatNo, she has a completely different set of passives.> And is it actually a good ascendancy?Phrecia's Salvager was incredible. This one looks a lot more underwhelming because it doesn't seem to have any crazy defensive angle like Scav, but there will probably be good damage tech for it, based on what they've shown so far. It will probably really propel specific skills with shit like extra proj.
Static strike chads we are so back.
>>558765240Alright, if I'm reading the example 2 they have in there, then all the increases should still count for the extra added damage. >Based on 100 Physical Damage, the skill has 25 Fire Damage from Phys to Fire conversion and 30 Fire Damage from Phys gained as Fire; in total, 55 Fire Damage from Physical. This damage is affected by all Fire and Physical Damage modifiersSo then it doesn't matter which I get. I was wondering if it was more efficient to stack the type closer to the final conversion/addition step, like elemental damage over physical with enough phys as extra. Specifically for trying to see how big Herald of Purity would be
>>558766061No, different. Scavenger is much more powerful. Depending on what the actual nodes are revealed to be there might be a build in here.Grace of the goddess and warped timepiece pretty much screams fusillade.

The last time he admitted he also played a SINGLE build to maps, and guess what it was the bugged twisters+barrage dealing 600% more damage that was immediately hotfixed within hours of the patch going live. Jonathan is such a retard he didnt notice he was doing 600% more damage with exponential scaling on twisters
>>558767215ok
>>558767224Which one? :^)
>>558741797yeah thats some very short sighted thinking, also some things are near impossible to crit cap like heralds and explosions. 3.28 is going to have some wild builds
>>558742756>All sources that grant chaos resistance or chaos damage reduction now grant "Mortal Defiance.">Mortal Defiance = Chaos/Holy resistance/reduction/etc
>>558767407>>558741797Theres no way winds of fate works with diamond shrine, is it confirmed?
cyclone facebreaker + goose helmet + new belt = giga
>>558767121This patch is just like PoE 2. Y u no like PoE 2, you bloody bastard bitch benchod!
>>558767484Yeah. Overrides because Always isn't a modifier to chance, it's always. Same deal as using winds with glacial hammer of shattering.
>>558767631holy seethe
I'm gonna type it again: the new belt is meant to be used with the bloodline that adds one extra ring

the league will flop so hard they just removed t17 and t16,5 and called that a loot buff. all they did was lower the ceiling people will quit the league on day 2 when they get tired of speeding through t16 maps in less than 30 seconds.
>>558768506T16.5s are sill in the game and can be buffed even further with Astrolabes.
>>558768506Dumbass we have mirage and giga juiced breaches and the new anarchy scarab and we still have blight of blooming

It's kinda funny how people hated nu-breach but now that it's on the atlas tree everyone's excited for it.
i, a shitter, will ask a lot of questions come 3.28
>>558768702We're excited for it because its actually going to drop loot now. I wish they removed the genesis tree tho
>>558768568Starters didn't change much so what is the point? New builds might come out after we get gem info.
>>558768760Viper Strike of the mamba is dead, though
>>558768841pconc of bouncing
>>558768186anything pathing for the top left minion stuff can be used interchangeably with most similar skills, you don't need to respec to try out SRS, absolution, dominating blow, soulwrest phantasm, etc. get spiritual aid and you can also boost totem damage and place down holy flame totems for easy campaign and early mapping. https://pobb.in/jEW7hCy9jDdcI played something similar to this in mercenaries league with a doryani's prototype merc which obviously made it even more faceroll. Since you scale minion damage and not specific attack/spell/damage types you have a lot of flexibility. fresh meat+skull is best for skills you're constantly hitting summon cap for and resummoning more so its probably gonna work well with the new holy strike shit especially with a high base crit weapon.
Rate Lily's tits.

I really don't understand why everyone is so hype on this league. It really feels completely arbitrary whether people decide if a league is good or bad. The new skills are nice but the mechanic feels weak
>>558771014lol NO?! That's not how it works lol. My time costs nothing I got a 30$ cosmetic for FREE
>>558741610is this new? i dont think ive seen it before
>>558769218the truth is out there
>>558770625Pretty much anything can link increased critical strikes for 2 base crit. I think another fringe use case is lifetap/arcane surge with righteous fire and saving a link that did nothing but enabled swift affliction.
>>558771127It reminds me of those rabbits from wizardry

the new atlas and league mechanic look really cool and I bet they'll be fun to play. too bad it's poop1 and I'm not fucking with with old poop anymore.hopefully 0.5 will be half as good as this..eh who am I kidding, jonatroon will shit the tub and some retarded shit that no one asked for will overflow out of it.I really wish poop2 had new blood when it comes to designing league and systems. jonatroon drank way too much of his tubwater to come up with anything interesting.
>>558771284>jonatroon will shit the tubYou say that after we had 2 absolute banger PoE 2 leagues. You're smoking crack
So still no WASD?
>>558771196what was his last piece? necropolis?
>>558771054I don't even play the game but I want to see these type of changes in 2. The entire mindset actually is tempting me to go over to 1.>You can do the exact same map over and over forever and ever nowThis nigga speaking my love language.
>>558770860man its so easy to be a streamer
>>558771250>>558770971Honestly with a smaller pool you might constantly run into -max and phys as extra and the likes, the exact same thing that happened in Phrecia.Who tf cared about the impale mod?

>>558770860Meanwhile my video that I spent 2 hours editing + thumbnail + voiceover and 6 hours of gameplay only to get 8 views.
>>558771362this does feel like it will come to 2 aswell, i honestly think they should do the "shared endgame" meme as in the endgame functions in the same way, just different leagues and stuff
>>558771234>good build>needs to change gems to work>1/5 the damage of hit-based slam and also delayed damagevery cute, I hope you enjoy playing it
>>558771327they seem bangers because we had literally nothing before that. 0.3 was good because we actually got some crafting and another act and interludes that removed the boring nightmare difficulty. 0.4 was objectively worse than 0.3 with much much less content.
>>558771608>0.4 was objectively worse than 0.3Maybe but it was still a banger
>>558771054>but the mechanic feels weak>doubling your giga juiced mechanic of choice>weakare you actually retarded
>>558771551The only reason we have 2 and not PoE HD is because they wanted to put a price tag on their early access this time.
Do we have the scavenger v2 items yet
>>558771342Poe2 is that way -> I suggest instead of lingering in poe1, all you retards can go and mend the retention numbers back up for the game that already has all the retarded shit you're asking to be added to poe1.

>>558771707I don't care about your bot reply nigger
I haven't played a shield attack skill in a while, are there any new tricks to scale the damage other than the runegraft for 10% more attack speed? Is Prismatic still the best statstick before you can get the Maven wand?
The imbue skill stuff is going to go hard for miners.

>>558770930you got me
>>558771773Isn't varunastra the best statstick?
>>558771552dot cap is more than enough damage even for pinnacles, are you really suggesting that a dot cap bleed build with 90% block and spell suppression is worse than doing 200 million POBwarrior dps with every box checked as a zerker but using all six portals every map?
>>558771738Sharing the endgame is a kickstarter tier pipe dream and it was sold as the main attraction (I remember I was there). All of the content in 2 is being back ported from the first game except for ascension shit. It feels lazy and the main difference is just graphics and skill gems except the graphics arent good enough to warrant the file sizes and the graphical options are practically non existent.
>>558771838Excommunicated enemies cannot deal chaos damage

So with imbued gems getting an extra support gem is the play:1. tranny gem get multiple from lab of your own gem2. if you dont use tranny gem get multiple of your main skill3. slot them into your weapon swap for lvl 20 levelling4. imbue all of them?5. choose best for use or sale?or is imbue only attack based skill gems and not aura's movement skill etc?
>>558772043Right away victarios charity is a shield and they showed that the node was vics inspiration, the chest.
>>558771838>Excommunicated enemies cannot deal chaos damage. This does not prevent the user from taking chaos damage, nor does it affect any non-chaos damage taken as chaos damage, such as with Divine Flesh. did people actually skip mercs?
>>558772049
>>558771838Yeah it's in the game already on some random gloves from merc league, it makes targets unable to do chaos damage.https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Hand_of_Heresy>>558771909Hit-based slams were very widely used HC builds so the meme about six portals is nonsense, the whole reason why ES berserker and other builds were popular as fuck was that they were a very complete package. Bleed EQ is just a variation of retal glad and it has its strengths and weaknesses and was never meta for good reasons (it's not as good).

>>558772024Yeah, or you can use ff jewels as a slayer.
>>558772254if you excommunicate a target that poisoned you then i would assume that you will not be taking poison damage from that source. it prevents excommunicated enemies from dealing chaos damage, not you from taking chaos damage.

>>558772570ggg is actually very consistent with things like that so you should be generally expecting things to work exactly according to wording. reminder that its a game made by card games turbo autists.
>doubled ground loot0 x 2 is still 0
>>558772748>No flask1c vendor trash
>>558772809Yeah, but still. With the right shrines it's better than a Mageblood.
>>558772748If it chooses the shrines based on weight there's gonna be almost no diamond belts. You're gonna see heaps of resistance recovery belts.
>new belt + 3rd ring slot>removal of awakened gems + imbued gems means easier helm craft>foulborn rathpith untouched>ton of expensive uniques unnecessary nowyup rf jugg league>
>>558772942bro... your warden???
>>558772945>With the right shrines it's better than a Mageblood.For a few builds im sure, but not most
>>558772971You mean Brutal Recovery belts.You think they'd let a belt have +10% Max Res +50% Ele Res as one of the most common outcomes?
>>558772971>resistance recovery beltssupposedly some niggger said in zizs chat that its rolling one offensive and one defensive shrine.also both resist and regen shrines are actually extremely powerful lol
>>558773051Brutal actually has the same weight as echoing and might potentially be rarer than diamond.It'll be fun to see.
> hot take> campaign should be back to basics> no past league mechanics during campaign> area size in campaign reduced to half> to focus on story narrative> campaign can only have current league mechanics> access to past league mechanics should be available at endgame> introduce 1 random past league mechanic each map you run (you can ignore still)> past league mechanics you've encountered or ignored can now appear in later maps you run
>>558773051I mean it literally competes with mageblood which the resistance flasks with 90% increased effect give way more than the resistance shrine
>>558773042>For a few buildslmao. theres nothing a mageblood can do better than shrine belt does.
>>558773130That would mean no Accel+Diamond.Actually that would guarantee one of Rejuv/Resist/Impenetrable/Massive, wouldn't it?
>>558773051if its actually weighted like shrines? yes
took monday+tuesday off work lads
>>558773051>>558773259Gull and Blunderbore gives you 75% increased effect of shrines each. With just one you cap your res at 90% if you get a resistance shrine, which is better than a Mageblood.
>>558773259mageblood only gives 9% max res and you have to commit three flasks for it lil gup
>>558773421But then you have to run gull or blunderbore>>558773448Not with sublime vision purity of fire
>>558773448melding fampai.
>>558773395now you just need to swing by costco for a bulk amount of chicken tenders
>>558773289depends how they define offense and defense. action speed might as well count as something defensive while echoing is offensive

>>558773314>divine shrine belt POG
>>558773505>just pay 2 mirrors to get equivalent of a 50c belt while also missing out on 3rd ringlmao
Hmm, I'm thinking Gloom/Divine belt in my SSF build
>>558773448it also can give yoonslaught phasingsuppresscurse immunity stun immunity ailment immunity and much more
Will essences be profitable again in 3.28 after the giving tree made them worthless this league?
Anyone who thinks divine shrine will roll on that belt is coping hard
>>558773613Keep in mind shrine effect is actually totally worthless for many of the shrines. Shrine effect does nothing for diamond shrine for example. So if you want diamond shrine you dont want shrine effect
Skeletal ShrineDark PactThink about it poetards.
>>558773613>3rd ringthis is what most people that dont understand the shrine belt are missing. you get literally free three helical rings on a mageblood+ belt. this is beyond insane.
>>558773705Gold flask with rarity crafted in my mageblood
only streamer i care about
>>55877374299% wont but nothing stops them from giving it a custom version thats something like less dmg taken instead of pure immunity
>>558773783Mageblood gets your curse immunity, another ailment immunity, move speed, attack speed, crit strike. Its not just the flasks own effect but also the affixes on the flasksIts in no way better than mageblood except a few builds that massively improve with one of the shrines like a diamond shrine
>>558773865It is nice to power fantasy about taking zero damage but that would be the end of the game. You will have won poe.
>>558773934A belt with a resonating shrine alone is way better than a mageblood.
>>558773705feels good being a jugg and caring about none of that.new belt is the ultimate JUGG endgame allowing 3rd ring (synth endurance charge ring)
>>558773745But it's absolutely worthwhile on other shrines. If you experienced the hits of 350%+ shrine effect on Accel/Echoing you know what I mean>t. Daughter of Oshabi crack addict
If there's an acceleration shrine variant the belt will be good. If there isn't I won't use it. It's that simple.>>558773862The constant references to his closeted homosexuality don't put you off?
Not to forget most mageblood builds run Progenesis, which ofcourse you cant run with that belt. Thats straight up 25% DR. No tincture you run comes close to that
Mageblood this Shrine belt that Red pill me on the new anoint belt.

>>558774114you anoint it
>>558774114it's like a belt but you can anoint it
>>558773712have you seen the mirage essence
>>558774074>Not to forget most mageblood builds run ProgenesisMine didn't
>>558774114im annointing light radius for my holy aesthetic
>>558774114it's a pre-mageblood belt
>>558774114Better than vanilla base belts and probably used over anything but synth belts or the chase belts.
>new poe patch lets check out the patch notes>nerfs to slams>no changes to wands
for me, its hybrid melee/summoner Templar
>>558774114stygian vise but better
>>558773787hear me out: covetous shrine belt.
>>558774074>needing flasks for mapping defenseyikes, defiance should be enough to make you immortal while mapping if your build was good
I want the belt enchant back...
>>558774276you can synth that annoint belt too after you put an enchant on it
>>558774308With divine shrine to offset the downside.
>>558774250>annointingjeet detected
>>558774395lets not pretend that covetous shrine ever killed you
>>558771405t16.5s are way easier than t17s baseline tholower monster level and weaker monster types
>>558774351Maybe. I wouldnt hold my breath on ggg allowing it since they just took the hammer to stackers. But there is a path to it.
>>558774506what maybe? that is literally how it works lol
im sorry for doubting marcus-samai thought the league would be sabotaged due to 0.5 development gonna get white gurl wasted to celebrate the return of poe1
>>558774506>took the hammer to stackersStrength stacking is still clown-mode, only int got hit at all
>>558774114Free curse. Double reserve reduction.
>>558774620>>558774776Im just saying I wouldnt be surprised if you go to synth it and instead it fizzles out saying you are not allowed to.
reminder that any skill that relied on Awakened Cascade support is now unplayable
>>558774961theres now greater cascade
>>558774961Cold Snap of Power my beloved...
poe1fags getting REAL cocky when poe2 has already destroyed it league after league in concurrent steam chart player countsenjoy your patch, it's your last one :)
>>558775084fuck off to some random gacha general faggot
>>558774961Is this another POE e-girl?
>>558774863Considering you can still double anoint and corrupt the blight helm and mythic orb it into an abyssus I think it's most likely going to allow you
The Mirage soundtrack is actually so peak
>>558775132HEY!dont insult us GachaGODSwe all prefer poe1 to that dogshit poo2.
>>558775405Ofcourse you prefer the F2P dark pattern game where you can freely RMT and do weekly quests with shipping
Based snoobae cooking up another bow build again
>he thinks those new holy skills are good
>>558775653I dont think they are good. I think they are thematic.
>>558774961I thought they reworked it to be a line now, but turns out that that's just a tranny shock nova gem which feels like 3 steps backs
how mad is reddit going to be when they realize kingsmarch now takes twice as much work
>>558775653who is this semen demon
>>558775653I know its a beta test for poo2. I shant be engaging with them.
>>558775803Cutedog said it's a buff, and I believe him
I wonder how hard the guy who always plays whispering ice is malding at the int bonus to es getting slashed in half.
>>558775939i'm mad at mamba being shot for no reason
>>558775925It doesn't matter if he fails his build because he just RMTs to the mid-league OP shit anyway.
>>558775974The initial direct damage lightning stacker part of mamba needed shot. Low Tolerance didnt deserve that.
>>558775939WI hasn't existed for a couple years now, Anon.>Icestorm rework (now shit) was 3.12>5.5 years ago
>news skills added>he's plays bows or wandsCowards
>>558775974>no reason>best strike skill when not even used for its intended purpose>strong when used for its intended purposedeserved the nerfs. just play it 2h now.
>>558775974What do you mean no reason? Mamba was programmed in a way that says they just don't understand their own game at all, it was an 800+% damage effectiveness gem with the strike tag. It never should have been written the way it was. It definitely shouldn't have been in the game for as long as it was.
>>558776152You got me. I'll play RF then.
reminder the resistance shrine on belt gives 10% max chaos as well so with xibaqua you instantly cap max chaos resist
>>558775653They don't have high base damage and I lightning melee damage sucks
>>558776341It has the severe limitation of only allowing one poison stack.Clever use of game mechanics allows you to stack low tolerance jewels to get around this limitation.A humble dotcap build has been killed for no real reason, and I speculate it's collateral from primordial bond being taken out back and shot.GGGrug has seen another cluster jewel being spammed and has decided it too needs to feel his wrath.
>>558776350I got you right where it hurts, probably.Do you think rf will ever be nerfed?>It's balanced, it doesn't do that much damageYeah but they've been acting a bit uppity recently
Pokemon wind/wave is gonna mog 3.28
>>558771108if your time costs nothing i'd love to hire you
>>558776708I've got some wind for you to wave at right here
>>558776617Cluster jewels are bad design and deserve nerfs.
did they buff the unleash gem after removing awakened unleash?
>>558776698rf itself cant get nerfed. they'll hit everything around it though, see fire trap and chieftain lately.so play rf jugg with scorching ray and you will never get a nerf
Chat maybe it's time to play impending doom.
>>558777063>you will never get a nerfor kill a map boss KEK
I LOOOOOVE CORRUPTING MY 67 TOXIC SEWERS AND THROW AWAY HALF OF THEM BECAUSE THEY TURNED INTO OTHER MAPS
>>558742657>holy element that opposites chaosWow that's so original!Retard.
>>558777014lol
Holy relic necro seemingly safe for now?Never played it but seems like a solid zbudget option
>>558777163gonna kill faster than slams now LOL
Divine blast:Assuming seething fury + foulborn emperors vigilance with highest roll range (2571 armor, 539 ES)Base crit: 18,25%Flat damage (lvl 20, 20% qual): 895Implosion damage (upfront): 895Explosion damage (1.5 second delay): 1790Assuming you can reduce duration enough that the delay isnt felt, total damage: 2685
Jesus christ people have no grasp on reality. No, the shrine belt won't be able to give you divine shrine. Fucking obviously. And it probably won't be able to give you acceleration shrine either. In fact, it might just be massively nerfed and worthless before leaguestart. So many people for some reason believing the most ridiculous shit like GGG will put out a belt you can farm that can give you 100% increase action speed and +25% max resists.No, motherfucker, the teaser is probably the best possible scenario. You probably can't roll the belt with divines. You probably can't get a bunch of the shrine modifiers on it. You retards are fucking delusional.
>>558777572retard
>>558777014The new essence gives +1 to unleash seals on craft, take it or leave it
>>558777172Too smooth brained to enjoy friction in a video game
>>558777472SST:Same assumuptionsBase crit: 13%Flat damage: 1503Shield damage: 1503Shard damage: 752Total damage assuming 1 shield hit + 1 shard hit: 2255So it deals slightly less damage and has less base crit but it has much better clear. I dont know if thats enough to play divine blast because while you dont have to invest as much crit you have to invest into less duration which SST doesnt
>>558777731you can now have +9 unleash on rings btw
I kind of want to figure out Cryogenesis Ele Hit but I have this feeling in my gut that it's gonna get a last-minute rugpull with a "bug fix".
>>558777257Most minion builds are totally fine as long as you're not playing shit like zombies. Your spectres will be tankier if you use any.
>>558777572retard, I already dug into the files of 3.28 and saw you can get a divine AND gloom shrine
>>558778251They should obviously do that you dumb cunt. It's bad enough that you can use Avatar of Fire. Elemental hit doesn't need double damage.
4 second long Static Strike is actually amazing. I know most of you never played this shit after the melee rework, but it has a really high damage effectiveness. The damage is good, it's just the clunk that keeps people away.
>>558778547Explain
Prepped for it turning out the new catalysts work with unique jewelry unintentionally.
>SKILL doesn't need TWO SUPPORT GEMS WORTH OF DAMAGE
>>558778507>It's bad enough that you can use Avatar of FireBut that's dogshit.>Elemental hit doesn't need double damage.It's more than triple.
>>558777572its pretty good just based on what it says already
>>558778547I agree, it's a good buff.But good god is Static Strike awkward as shit.
Give it to me straight, how fucked KBoC is after refraction "bug fix"?
>>558778595It has 346% damage effectiveness on every beam, and you can snapshot Intimidating Cry for guaranteed double damage. It ignores your attack speed, so you can use a big 2H. But if your 2H is fat and slow, then the skill gets clunkier. You fix clunk with attack speed or skill effect duration.Eventually you will get outscaled by strike skills with attack speed scaling in the higher investment range, but when you equip Static Strike in the campaign it does a ridiculous amount of damage.
>>558778930And you didn't even go into ambush kek.
>>558779248>>558779248>>558779248new again
>>558778756And maybe it will turn out that it is massively nerfed before release. Like they do most leagues whenever anyone sees something good.Or maybe it will turn out that the weightings of the shrines are massively fucked so they are rarer than t0s, so you may as well just use a mageblood.
>>558779205Ambush is great if your weapon can use it. 1H Mace is probably the best end-game version but I dunno how you get the single target DPS high enough. I would have to lab it for a while if I wanted to take it into deep endgame in modern PoE.
>>558771773I liked going last resort + low life on jugg
