>>567823401>instead of doing 6 damage ill be doing 7 instead!wow...good luck on that EQ build bro
>>567823305>viableYou know you don't have to play what a streamer tells you to play right? You don't need to play a good skill to have fun playing the game and kill arbiter.

>>567823638Can you prove him wrong?
hi i'm new here so sorry if this has been answered before but what the HELL is wrong with that Tri guy
>>567823305He's right, you know
>The "Gladiatoral" Helm basetype has been renamed to Cassis Helm.Glad is getting cut from the game
>>567823717I don't think you understand what he said there, retard.If you don't have the mental capacity or reading comprehension to understand what's being said maybe you should shut the fuck up.
>>567823756he murders children
>>567823808you typed a lot just to say no to the question
>>567823808That isn't what I asked, can you prove his statement wrong, retard?
>>567823808What are you even mad about ES got gutted
>Nerf this>Nerf that>Nerf here>Nerf there>Zero (0) buffs to actually shit skillsWhy?
>>567823568to be fair his leap slam was going nowhere near his cursor

actual GENUINE question from a retardSorceress, Huntress, Ranger status report? (Survivability only)
>>567824197>jonathan retards
>>567824607there's no way you really think this way
>>567824718>sorces is kino, all 3 ascendancies have a defensive of some kind>huntress, rangerglass cannons
>>567824607Streamers are stealing builds from very small youtube cc and from poe ninja.Alkaizer and Jungle Ryan are perfect examples of steamers stealing builds and making mobalytics guides and claim ownership.
>>567824718sorceress insane stillhuntress and ranger depends on ascendancy, pure eva looks pretty ok if you build around it well now
>>567824718>SorcES recharge delay is much harder to get so you have to pay attention to your current ES. >huntress rangerGGG have probably given monsters more base accuracy to compensate for the increased evasion from gear, so we'll have to get evasion on the tree instead of just stacking damage.
Is bow bad now? I haven't played it since 0.2
>>567825072no
es nerfs are completely cosmetic with every equip getting some ward
ward basically lives or dies depending on if its counted as a global defense or not
reminder that with the armor buff you can literally go any ascendancy you want, grab some armor nodes, and become literally immortal.titan just gets to be slightly more immortal.
why are you pretending that twisters are going to be nerfed because of a r*dd*t posteveryone already knew about twistersggg already knew everyone already knew about twistersthey didn't nerf it
>>567825072Some bow skills are bad, some are goodEvery weapon/class type has at least one very good skill to use, the problem is all the other shit ones existing and tricking new players or people trying them out
but amazon was already a glass pistol.....
Man what the fuck is PoE2's gay spell design. Spell totems look nice? Shaman using fire stuff looks nice? I wonder what fire spells there are...>Solar Orb limit>Ember Fusilade doesn't work with spell totem>Volatile Dead has no real way to function with Ancestral Bond>Flame Wall Limit (and doesn't stack)>80% of what Fireball does is locked behind infusions and doesn't work with spell totem>Living Bomb limit>Snap doesn't work with spell totem>Detonate Dead has no real way to function with Ancestral Bond>Incinerate doesn't work with spell totem>Firestorm limit>Flameblast doesn't work with spell totem>Volcano doesn't work with spell totems
>>567825248You will play the game one specific way.
>>567823704What's there to "be good" at in poe2? Race to arbiter that they keep nerfing? That's like 10h, less than PoE1 4stone.
>guythatdies stole tuadh's gimmickman he's really a piece of shit kek
>>567825248imagine my shock when i made a smith of kitava fire spell on melee hit build only to realize i cant socket most fire spells
>>567825248The usability of fire spells is the one valid complaint of "this entire set of skills sucks ass" and it's crazy they can't figure it out or whatever the fuck
>>567825186you have to trade es for wardes players should only get ward to use the new skills
>>567825191it is not
>>567825367>What's there to "be good" at in poe2?sucking my cock :)
>>567824479why does pooegg love to say this so much
>>567825248spell design is beyond tub'd johnathan saw to it personallyinfusions are such a dogshit mechanic and have not received a single change since they were implemented it was a sad day when i realized most attacks are just better spells like molten blast; you could use ancestral warrior totem with molten blast and it would be barely different than using a spell totem
>>567825536retard
>>567825248>waah I don't want to use infusionsoh well
>he is a jingakh
My grandpa's gun is in the shed.
>>567824807any build that is even remotely good will eventually get covered by some youtube/twitch faggot for views and dosh. the fact that you made a cope post instead of instantly winning by posting ONE (1) of these supposed secret good builds is proof that i'm right >>567824819well yes but that's besides the point. my point is there are no good builds that haven't already been covered by either a big streamer or small youtuber/streamer
you wanna use meteor storm spell? bear druid (an attack)you wanna use earth magic? sunder/earthshatteryou wanna shoot lightning from your hands like a wizard? hollow palm storm wave
GEE GEE GEE NERFED MY BUILD I AM GOING TO PISS AND DRINK MY OWN PISS WHOS WITH ME??!
so, wyvern still just gonna slap 90% of the map and barf oil on the 3 things that don't die?
>>567825208*briefly touches one of the puddles that are literally everywhere**instantly melts*of course armor is so good bro, just look at the meme number pob shows me
>>567825789reverse chill is kill so no
Why do they keep forgetting to make melee playable?
>>567825841only thing that near-instantly killed me with max res this league was Arbiter's beam.
>>567825690Do infusions even work with spell totems, and how do I generate enough infusions to fuel 4 totems?
>>567825912they'll fix it in poe3
Just read the patch notes, how should I feel about it?
>>567825912desired melee experience is you slowly trudging through hordes of mobs that move at poe1 speed and stack up combo and charges
>>567825912Mark is overworked and is making 3.29 as we speak. Jonatron is a useless faggot. Please understand
>>567826007however your favorite eceleb tells you to
plant totems + accelerated growth
>he is a twistakh
>>567826070>Also, BFR is making youtube videos clowning on them.Based
posting in this thread too>>567823179how do you make incinerate good?
>>567826092why not just self cast?
>The amount of Armour granted by items and modifiers has been increased as you get to higher levels. At level 65, you should have approximately 33% more Armour, tapering down to 15% at level 80+.>The amount of Evasion granted by items and modifiers has been increased as you get to higher levels. At level 65, you should have approximately 33% more evasion, tapering down to 15% at level 80+.monsters are going to have more damage and accuracy to compensate for this.
>>567826379I wish I could channel Dark Effigy's cast.
>>567825912>meanwhile>melee builds swinging screenwide>still complaining
>>567826092Ok this seems like it has potential. I assume you want to use Wildsurge Incantation and Overabundance to knock the plant duration down low enough that totems don't hit cap since Accelerated Growth procs 1 time when the plant spawns in a thunderstorm right?
>rend 586% to 405% damageholy shit what a nerf
>>567826379Probably totem entangle while you selfcast thrashing vines/thunderstorm? All the plant stuff has limits and overgrow is once per duration I assume (haven't played it) so I imagine the whole point would be that you're trying to reach cap on both plant types without going over while keeping a storm up which might be hard to do pure selfcast?
>ben_ shitting on zaccie for 10 minutes straight>outright calling him a retardhow can one white boi be so based
So was evasion buffed? ev/es is fok still? amazon elemental leech???
>>567823447>but b-but the armor players (who quit after playing the campaign) die less!!!I hate discord troon devs with a passion.
Why is arc so FUCKING SHIT in this game?My favourite skill in poe1 and it's just trash nowIs there any way of saving it at all?
now that the dust has settledwhat did we think of zaccie's solution of adding more life but just not calling it life?
>>567826668>Is there any way of saving it at all?yes actuallyinvest like 5 mirrors into it
>>567826559because you're easy to impress
>>567826734Truly an elegant way to solve the life problem. If you're fucking retarded.
>>567826469yeacast on crit thunderstormcharged mark + sniper mark + deadly mark for rares = shock + armor breakdrop totems -> channel bonestorm
>>567826667Nigger blatantly admits here >>567823551 that the balancing revolves around the retards who never gear endgame, vile.
>>567826734light pattern if i ever saw one
>>567826787>the life problemdoesn't exist
>>567826668spark coc arc bm was just as good as comet last league
>>567826801Why bonestorm? Just a phys spell?
>>567826972it's very strong in single target and adds tons of impale which will pop from all the vines and accelerated growths
they added life by buffing the runes...
>>567823507>t. 628 hours to complete campaign
WAT if you have CI and ward
honestly this league i will just login with my old characters in standard league and see a bit of the endgame changesnot feeling playing through the campaign again
>>567826734>50 bluebluelife on 1 piece of armorcomplete nothingburger
>>567826837people who play endgame don't purchase cosmetics. you are not the target audience
>>567826837>>567823447>>567823551oh god I don't know what to whine about any more! he said ES players die more but he's also nerfing ES! this is a literal genocide against /poeg/ shitposting!
I need streamers to tell me the S++++ build so i can play S++ that wont get nerfed please thanks
GuyThatDies?Won.
yeah I'm skipping, no new acts no new classesclearly the purpose of this patch is to test the new endgame for full release
>>567824197>100kThat armor discussion was cancer.
damn they gutted ES rechargeif anything just reduce maximum es
>>567827234>I need streamers to tell me the lowest-effort broken skill ftfy, anyway its probably not twister
>>567827234Twisters is the S++++ buildhow can the community be mistaken
>>567827261>twister enjoyer>monetizing content everyone else gives away>has a 10-year planwhat a chad
>>567827337>>567827345I dont have the time to play shit buildsEveryone knows thatNobody wants to play a c tier build that takes 5+h in campaign or only gets going after more than 50hWe aint got time for that
>>567827332the gameplay of ES is supposed to be: you have a lot of buffer but your restore is less good than life builds. making recharge so easy was always going to make it too good.
did they nerf the armor % increase es recharge rate node
>>567823447>proceeds to buff armor bases by 15%Does he not realize how stupid he looks?
>try a ggg favorite>spin 3 times and attack once with a weapon that just has ok %increased phys>everything dies on screen, 3 million dps>try infusions>have to invest a bunch of points just so picking them up is not complete ass>need a weapon with +7 and increased damage and damage gained and an amulet with +3 so that the damage increase is actually visible to the naked eye
>>567827028Impale says it only gets extracted by attacks though? And wouldn't it only extract 1 time?
Why did they destroy reverse chill???
>>567827453it's not bad if you use every one of your skill slots
>>567827409I wonder what the average campaign completion time is, probably not sub-6 hours despite all the metacucking.
>>567827453korea bros look away AAAAAAIIIIEEEEEEEE
GuyThatWonnered
>>567827421sighhhhhhhhthis was the one thing that druid had going for it manretarded ass shit BFR tub SHITTT FUCK YOU ZACCIE
>>567827448monster damage and accuracy will have been increased to compensate for the armour and evasion buff. as M&J said in the Q&A, the real goal is to incentivize taking passive defense nodes on the tree instead of mindlessly stacking damage.
>>567827502they already said 35h
>rend completely gutted>tribal fury guttednice
>>567827471oh rightliving lightning could extract easilyidk what else ur gonna do when all your totems are down besides bonestorm ya knowselfcast entangle i guess but idk
>ctrl+F "rampage"No relevant nerfs>ctrl+F "heralds"No relevant nersf>ctrl+F "armour explosionsNo relevant nerfsSeems im running it back with the beast screen clearer in the game again
>>567827502It's gotta be 10 plus hours. Mark said the average player takes over a minute on campaign bosses.
>>567827630>zDPS single targetlollmao enjoy your 14 hour campaign
>>567827630please do not get bear nerfed its one of the only cool things left in the game
just so you guys know, twisters are getting nerfed in a future patch update
>>567827630every armor explosion skill in the game got nerfed, dumbass, ctrl-f "5 to 7"
>>567827621Well I assume totems are on entangle and you would selfcast thrashing. Also might be selfcasting thunderstorm since I'm gonna be doing Shaman rather than Oracle so not very good access to CoC.

>>567827752titans in destiny anyone
>>567827752comparison is the thief of joy
I'm not reading the notes, didn't watch the stream either. I just copy what twitch streamer fubgun does.
>>567827769nigger, read the notes. the best monk skills only benefit from 1 bell
>>567827752Was he cooking with this one @chat?
genuienely why do GGG bend over backwards for Fubgunnersis the only solution to have a melee streamer become nr1 poo content creator?constant buffs, never bad, never nerfed
>>567827630>beast screen clearer in the gamehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LjLDbxK_xpA
I'm not reading the notes, didn't watch the stream either. I just copy what twitch streamer ds_lily does.
>>567827752Alkbros? Carnsissies? Our response?
>>567827957if bowfags can switch, so can he. hes just as retarded as the people hes shitting on
>>567827752The more melee sucks, the more rep+ you gain for playing it.
>>567827726good they can tank the nerfget people to bitch about my skill so they bugfix it and then nerf the damage so everyone rerolls or quits
>>567827595not surprised. lowering the mob density in the second half of the campaign makes more sense in light of this.
>>567827752GGG demonstrated that they only balance with playrate so they proved him right
>>567828014Not bad but where is the speed? Rampage doesnt stop, you just press forward
>>567827752melee sucking has been a fact of reality since some caveman came up with throwing a rock. cope and seethe for all time meleecucks.
>>567828014>https://www.twitch.tv/onemanaleft/clip/AttractiveStylishVelociraptorHoneyBadger-LlT67XiNpf9ykHBNNice dead skill interaction
>>567827723you know what the #1 coolest thing in the game is? hyperbole.
>>567827919just reread it and you'll get all the lost damage back by slapping a second bell on the boss while it's stunned
>>567827752Warrior gets nerfed because its the class of choice for speedrunners. So its the complete opposite of what that guy said.
>>567825912my favourite is the part where you need to take no damage as a build based on counter damage.
>>567828025sHe will paywall
>>567828113they've confirmed they don't do that in posts in the thread.
rolling slam got buffed though
melee? you mean mace spells? quarterstaff spells? spear spells?
have they increased warrior animations
>>567827228retard
unlike you all I parry and strike with my spear
why don't you guys actually try playing melee, it's never sucked>b-b-b-but it does maps in 2 minutes not 1m49s who cares
>>567828124Not to be sour grapes but rampage has a startup and needs to stop to loot. I do agree it has higher highs.
>>567828361the shittiest part of melee is that this game allows enemies to evade and also allows enemies to stun you, two things which simply do not belong in a fast-paced game
>>567828185that's a based clip
>>567828361I do play melee (i shoot projectiles from my melee weapon)
ARPG, rather
Describe your 0.5 starter with an izaro quote
>>567828439Nah you're right, looting is a bit frustrating, its the one downside of the build, just need to be picky with what you stop to loot for
>>567828124How does rampage work with ancestor totem? Is only the slam part actually counted as a slam? Does it move around?
zaccie is the thief of joy
this will be the poo1 patch, the game will finally be so complicated now that normies will be overhelmed and brainlets will just chase div/hr to buy the gear because it finally becomes too hard for their tiny brains to craft stuff themselves
>>567828360there is no reason not to use parry a bit.huntress is already built around burst damage so you can do it just after empowering everything.
>>567828472enemies evade your attacks? they basically made melee skills have perfect accuracy last league or before
>>567828521Absolutely massive doom
>>567828472>the shittiest part of melee is that this game allows enemies to evadePoint blank melee strikes always hit the target.
>>567828705it also totally trivliazes certain bosses who can all be parried>>567828721it's just rarer, you can still miss which means the enemy doesn't die which means you get hit which means you get interrupted. and it's way worse with an evasion modifier
>>567828603No idea i assume it doesnt work since rampage is a channeling skill
>The Craving Slaughter Notable Passive Skill now provides +15 maximum Rage if you've used a Skill that Requires Glory in the past 20 seconds (previously +8 per Skill that Requires Glory used in the past 6 seconds, up to 5 times)this seems pretty damn good. for something like pack tactician you passively get glory for banners and spam them anyway and they slightly buffed commanding rage too
>>567828925they buffed banners too innit
>>567828521>Gems provide the Strength of Virtue, but emperors true strength hails from the virtue of his resolve.Those extra superior gem effects better be good with mace skills.
tfw all three builds I wanted to play got destroyed
I know what I'm gonna play, chuddies
>>567828810also >Fixed an issue that prevented The Bloated Miller's backhand swing from being able to be Blocked, Parried, or Evaded.basically until 0.5 our first experience of Parry was it just not working lol
>>567829010actually, they got buffed and are now less cancer to use>Defiance Banner, Dread Banner, and War Banner: No longer have a Movement Speed penalty during use. Now have a Banner Aura base radius of 6 metres (previously 4.5).
>>567828521A throne is the most devious trap of them all.twisters
>>567829162okay that's pretty funny
the two i really remember for parries is the guy before the water goddess and the snake lady after the time portal
>>567828521Those who stand should never outnumber those who kneel.
>Rend: Fixed a bug where Lightning-Charged Rend was scaling twice with levels, the Base Damage has been increased to compensate. Lightning-Charged Rend now deals 130-405% Attack Damage at levels 1-20 (previously 120-586%).Can someone explain how this isnt contradictory?So apperantly according to them before rend was dealing 586 x 2 = 1172% damage, so to compensate this arbitrary doubling they claim to have increased the base damage, yet they instead nerfed it? So now you will deal 405% damage, in previous patch you dealt 1172% damage, almost a 3x nerf to rend. How shit will this feel to play?

what if poo2 was a good game?
I would like to same some anons lifes:0.4 was first patch when i started actual SSF run and closed all content. I choose bear because StrInt is my favorite archetype and shapeshifting is cool.>In late game you actually dont use rampage since you have nodes like "rage gives you damage/armor">the only time i use rampage is when i pop breach on high density map and decide that i want to identify as Ford F-MAX for next 20 seconds>99.9% of other time you just pop Bhatair's Vengeance, Calamity and just Maul>Slam>Bhatair's Vengeance is kill (literally half the damage it was)>I run into gigantic problem of casting slam constantly: running out of mana>I would cast slam twice and hear "OUT OF MANA" in horrible scottish/welsh accent">decided to check how other bears solved this>Good advice was from captainlance>Add "gain damage as physical to your weapon" and use % of damage is leeched as mana on gloves/talisman/ring>You really want it on ring, since then if you roll 3 preffix attack modifiers and Leech % of damage as life, you can quality that ring for "Attack" to have insane ring btw.>Now this is fucking dead, because bear doesnt hit hard enough for NuLeech to sustain your manaEpic, thanks a lot JonathanAdditional thoughs:>Perfect essence of battle gives +3 instead of +5 for talisman>Melee lvl gives +5 instead of +7>HOWEVER>Level to skills on Foci unchanged (still +2)>Level to skills on wand unchanged (+5)>SO IF YOU ARE RANGED MAGE, you get +2 levels over melee tard like meEPIC FUCKING BALANCING

Flails are being shadow dropped.Screenshot this.
>>567829621surely our players will be curious why the support is called 1
>>567829758vertex doesn't give +all any morethat by itself will probably help a lot
>>567829758Anon you didnt use herald explosionsRampage bear was shit until people put herald explosions on it with armour break tech. None of this is nerfed. I was like you aswell, i tried rampage, didnt like it, went back to maul and calamity. But they did some changes to ramapge so now it doesnt abruptly stop anymore. Lance quit too early to see the true potential of rampage bear
>>567829905doubtful. 100% this is either going to be a mace because lmao or a talisman
>>567829758spells are absolute dogshit without +levels is why
>Improved the visuals and telegraphing of the Lightning Doryani's Elite Monster.Apparently I wasn't the only one getting randomly sniped by one of these fuckers. Sometimes they detonate the energy ball so fast you can't even react to it.
>>567828185holy truth armageddon...
Curse this place, I'm being followed.
>patch notes>nerfs nerfs nerfs nerfs>"WE BALANCED EVERY BUILD AROUND YOU HAVING 150% ADORNED +4S VOICES"aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
You all saw the video on Zaccie where he said he balances on vibes. He's mentally retarded and has no place on any balance team. He filled PoE 2 with so much poop that even Hrishi couldn't stand it anymore.
>>567830251d4 won
How many of the issues of poo 2 people have in poo general is because they are bad at the game or they do not understand?
>>567829905yeah, ggg never makes a mistakelike they didn't make a mistake with saying t16 or higher and it wasn't retracted by kelly
>>567830105Most spells are dogshit even with +levels, so it's lucky they didn't JUST it so bad
>>567830328true
>>567830251D4 is unequivocally better than PoE 2 now. It's not even close. And that makes me sad.
>>56783028550%
I saw a screenshot where Zaccie confirmed he balances based on a desire to annoy me personally. "Anon is the centre of the universe", he said, "and I as the representative of Evil must be the counterweight".
>>567830328>>567830105I am sorry, are you under impression that Talisman doesnt need +levels?
>>567830368someone get this retarded blizzshillfag out of here
>>567830368yeah its so good that it has 3 week threads on /vm/ and many poo streamers immediately dropped this "massive" new expansion
>>567830391no...i'm just getting in the headspace of the game designerplease understand
>>567830368yeah I'm not going to play it lol
>>567830285Game ain't fun. Shan't be playing. Simple as.
>>567830475true
>>567830391Obviously, everything needs +levels because itemization in poo2 is horrendous, but at least with weapon-based skills you can improve the base damage with better rolls on your weapon.Most spells have such awful base damage, and have terrible scaling vectors (like ED) that you need the +18 levels in total for them to do anything
>Reaper's invocation can't slot mark skillsWhy does everything I try to do in this FUCKING game just say "no sorry you can't do that" seemingly just because GOD FORBID THE PLAYERS HAVE FUN OR EXERCISE ANY FUCKING DISCRETION OR CHOICE
>>567830368
>>567830368this is true
Reminder that Snoobae invented twisters. He is so far ahead of the streamernigger community it's unreal. The MF God Emperor.
anyone want to have a stab at guessing what the best Temple building strat is now based on the patchnotes.my best guess:>more snakes means better scaling but more destablization>you probably want 3-4 specialized snakes so you are more likely to be able to put related rooms together immediately>if stuff gets deleted just put a new room of the same type on the blank tile when you get one so adjacent surviving rooms get their upgrade back
>>567827630Bhatair's was cut in half. If that actually matters at the end of the day idk.
>>567830586every time i make a new build i quit around level 40 when i realize my theorycrafted interaction does not work
>>567830563>everything needs +levels because that was how things worked in D2ftfy
>>567823236my face after reading patch notes
>>567830694read again, rooms dont get deleted, they get changed into roads. You cant put new room on road.The only strat is LITERALLY cultivate few rooms and constantly defend them with amulet since every room you dont will turn into road at some point
>>567830659Zaccie falls for the "we should reinforce planes in the areas that are damaged when returning from combat" meme when balancing which is one of 1,700 reasons PoE 2 is shit.
>>567830817everything i play was nerfed
>>567830659dude just go down a few map tiers lmao
The change to corruption outcome with over or under divine was a really good change i was always confused why they made it pre-divine the item. Now for example for negative rarity, it matters a lot what your ventors looks like before you corrupt it, and corrupting one to get more negative rarity will be easier at the same time
yea I'm thinking GGG cooked bigly
>>567830642He definitely has a leg up on everybody with optimizing twister dwd weaponswap but his community doesnt really have a handle on how else to use huntress
>>567830368Has d4 even escaped /vr/ yet?
Cooked a huge pile of SHIT
>>567830821that makes "delete road put room in place" functionally identical to what I said. I think ggg want destablization to just be something we accept has to happen to some extent.
>>567830873Yes this was a good change
>>567830906filling up the tub with more bloat hardly counds as cooking, anon-kun
>>567830697Matters a little bit but not much, aslong as you get cold damage you can reliably herald chain
>>567830659goodmeleefags should suffer after slam meta in poe1 for 5 years
>>567830906Many are saying this
so ghost shroud, despite the heavy nerfs is still a must. gotcha
>>567830923cull the weak QOL buff might actually make the other spear skills worth using while levelling. each ground surface is 50% more twister damage ffs.
They just need updated notes with twisters nerfed and it's a fantastic patch Can't wait
>>567831042for hybrid builds sure. it remains to be seen if pure EV deflect is now better for huntress/ranger
>POE2 new power charge generator ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3gP1ibPfr-s
>>567831123ice-tipped arrows is still more likely to get the bonk. twister is a very generic skill and I think they'll let people have it this league to datagather first.
>>567830967>>567830821They want players to keep playing the Carcassone mini-game of building the temple instead of solving the board and then just farming the same setup.
>>567831352There is nothing to solve, its a braindead mechanic
why were the patch notes so unexciting?
The player count drop off for this PoE2 league is going to be apocalyptic.
earthquake + volcano CHADS won
>>567831401first time?but to be honest this time those retards are outdid themselves.
>burned through 3 threads alreadyalive game
>>567831352There is literally NOTHING to solve, at some point every room you will not save will turn into road. Thats it, you just get few rooms to t4 and pray you get enough amulets to protect them, while you pop rooms rngesus gives you instead of roads that got deleted
>>567831467LMAO
hold up. es values in general are still untouched? so people will still be able to run around with 15-20k es while only being able to get 5k life max? am I seeing this right?
>>567830105Spellcaster threshold for dogshit is "I saw one of the bosses do an attack once".
>>567831524zoomie detected
>Tencent only controls PoE 1's design decisions for the China server>Tencent controls PoE 2's design decisions worldwideSafe to say China meddling is why PoE 2 is in a worse state (with less content) than it was in 2019?
>>56783141570k peak for the weekend10k after one month
>>567831510that's the point of es you retardthe nerf was to recharge rate and start of recharge which got a gigantic nerf both on tree and items
>>5678315103k life armormaxxer is better than 20k ES. Straight from the lead balance dev at GGG. You lost.
>>567831606recharge rate is a nothing burger as long as I can still recover my es through ghost shrouds. yes its nerfed but on the other hand deflect is buffed so ev/es builds are still king.
>>567831510Yeah if you want to spend 10 minutes recharging es every time you got hit
>>567831510the tradeoff is supposed to be that it is way harder to recover ES than hp

>The Vertex Unique Helmet can no longer roll +2-4 to Level of All Skill Gems, instead now being able to roll +3-5 to Level of All Curse Skill Gems.lol.lmao even
>>567831662>ZaccieCan we please stop taking his word for anything? Hes def some faggot intern who only replaces resources.
>>567831401No real changes, nerfs to stuff that already sucked to play, just all around shit
>>567831692if you're playing ev/es you don't have 20k esnobody gives a shit about ghost dance faggots
>>567831352exactly. so they want you to be rebuilding it constantly whichever method you use.
>>567831470The last few patches at least had something in them. Not to get excited over, but enough to go "huh, that might be neat". Rest of it was dogshit of course.I looked through the patch notes this time and I was genuinely surprised how efficiently they've managed to avoid doing anything that might make me want to play.The only thing there that impacts me is chober +3. Yay. More + to skill levels. In the patch that was meant to improve build diversity by gutting + to skill levels.Are people really going to pick another affix because +3 just isn't worth the slot compared to +4 or whatever, in any case? Maybe that's why they left + to spell gems. Didn't want to gut minion builds as collateral, since minion builds are pretty much stuck with it as the only scaling method.
>>567831765Vertex was used in basically every build, whats wrong with nerfing it
>>567831884The fact that it even got put into the game with +2-4 all skills is the funny part
>>567831884nothing actually, it was busted, but this change pretty much just killed it
>>567831971I mean it was a league related item, not surprising some OP stuff gets in from new leaguesThey also completely removed reliable self chill with the gloves aswell
the reality? 4 new endgame content stuff, they are all boring and not rewarding, you don't need the breach rings, you don't need the expedition thing, you don't need delirium stuff, you can just do abyss
>>567832050this nigga has already played the patch, damn
>>567832050Imma do ritual doe
>>567832050The new league mechanic is such an afterthought that they barely even showed it off and spent more time rambling about the four reheated leagues.
>>567832050You can just not play the game too
>>567831401people can't imagine having to worry about defenses while levelling so they simply aren't processing that part yet. it's going to be very impactful.
>>567831796He's GGG's LEAD balance dev. All monster life/damage values and all player skill damage/costs in PoE 2 are set solely by him unless vetoed by Mark or Jonathan. It's like you didn't even watch the video.
>>567832113I'd love to do ritual but this game has a billion T4-T5 worthless uniques and I'm afraid it's gonna be no money past day 2. Hopefully the omens carry.
>>567831867ggg have never used patchnotes to try to bribe players into coming back.
>>567831662Extreme cope. Against a 5k hit 25k armour gives 33% reduction, which results in a 3.33k hit that will kill you in most cases at that armour level. 10k ES shrugs it off. But we can take it farther, to survive a 9.99k hit at 5k life you need 100k armour. ES survives it at 10k ES. What is harder to get, 100k armour or 10k ES? Do you even know what armour values and ES values are achievable in the endgame? Fucking Alkaizer is even playing ES past two patches.
>>567825248Just count yourself lucky you don't play minions.They know exactly what players want, because they've gone out of their way to put "does not work on minions" on all of it. They seem to be able to guess exactly what I want to do. I see jonathon's smug punchable face pushing his fag glasses up his nigger nosebridge every time I read "does not modify the skills of minions".
I'm fuckedI've discovered an extremely fun build to play and I can't stop playing it. I'm afraid I'll get burned out and bored before the patch hits.FUCK.
>>567831867I think what's supposed to be interesting this time round is the endgame overhaul
>>567832359I don't believe you.
>>567832325>Fucking Alkaizer is even playing ES past two patches.is this true

>>567832363I am pretty sure it's gonna be overstretched and unrewarding shit as it was with the temple before they patched it.
they are going to shadow drop some bullshit, but they should've just showed all their cards on the patch notes
>>567832325That's not counting lich having DR from damage bypasses ES either, so it looks even worse for armor

>he needs Claude to tell him which items to flipNGMI. Just follow the Asian streamer brigade + Captain Lance + Palsteron and sit on those items early. It has never failed ever.
>>567832791no
>>567832906What build?I promise I wont tell jonathon.
>>567832791Do the Temple. For her.
>>567832912having an ai agent follow them for you is gonna be better doe
>>567832892I know that anon thats why I am asking. I quit the league because I refused to do the temple mechanic. I dont want 0.5 to be another temple league. I rather have 100x less loot than do a single temple.
Regardin gemling:They removed the 5% quality node from passive tree and they removed gemlings 10% quality notable. I assume the 2%-er minor notable remains tho. This is basically -15% quality, which makes me think some of these new qualities must be absolutely bonkers and they had to reel quality back in so Gemling doesnt end up giga broken
My build got to maps and now I have to accept the fact that its shit and there's no saving it.I should have done this closer to release so I could shitcan it before I got to this point.
>>567832912I keep playing ssf thanks

They call this game poop2 because every time you think about playing it you’re filled with the urge to go to the toilet and blast the pristine white bowl with a big sloppy wave of diarrhea and then after you flush (but don’t wipe because you have some poop 2 to play) there’s a second wave of solid poop that you need to push out real quick but when you try to flush this time the shit is too thick and dense to flush and so you have to smash the turd up with your hands because you can’t afford a plunger because you spend your whole life playing a game called poop2
>>567833307crouching tunahidden faggot

>>567833348everyone is saying this
>>567833406Nah i listened to a podcast with kiwi guys its quins absolutely shitty nasal, queefy and high pitched rage inducing voice that just irks me the wrong way
>>567833196Maybe. What would we do?
>check patch notes for chronomancer changes>it still sucks
why doesn't burning arrow exist? Why does ggg hate fire?
Where the fuck did the chink get the source for all these new uniques?
>>567833608no interesting mechanics, just an arrow that does fire damage.
>>5678336081. It’s a beta2. Lots going on behind the scenes3. GGG is going to fix it4. That’s all there is to it
so uhh.. gamerdad here, what's the consensus on starters, twisters? what else good?
>>567833608why doesnt cyclone exist? its the one staple melee skill and they deliberately refuse to add it. I dont fucking care if its tied to swords/axes or whatever thats not my fucking problem, I dont give a fuck about their reasoning. These skills should work with all weapons anyway.
>>567833705ggg sent them to himjust like they leak all the data pre-launch, it isn't really datamined.
>>567833728twisters, ice shot, probably still rolling slam/shield wall, some form of minion cuckery, and probably totems
>elemental leech cucked to lineage>now only highest leech of single type appliesman i love going oom after stacking 4 combo so my bell has to be hit only normal autos
>>567833848thanks anon, i don't want any more bow stuff so ice shot is a pass even tho its fucking juicy, maybe i'll keep an eye out for minion/totem builds as a backup plan, never tried them besides quick witch in 0.1
>>567833728very few changes to levelling builds so just do one of those.
>>567826765If we were easy to impress we'd be gobbling up zaccies retard balance

>>567833705
>>567833467I like the thick accents in the game. Piety and Niko specifically, when simple "No" takes Niko 8 vowels to pronounce. "Naeyuh!"
>>567833975why don't you go play ben's game oh wait he doesn't make any
Timegawds how we coping?
no idea how melee is supposed to live with these leech changesI don't know why it was necessary either, just fucking nerf CoC
>>567833996You just know that 99% of them are dogshit
Better nerf warrior
>>567833996Holy shit i almost missed it, fucking loreweave? I wonder how hard it goes in PoE 2
They really want me to buy most quad stash tabsHaired tab seller literally wants me to run ~10 maps picking white bases that i need for build, tp to hideout 3-4 times per map to dump them all in quad stash tab. Then when tub is full to perfect trans + aug them.Haired retard actually wants me to fill my tub
So we've not had a patch for like 5 months... and we got balance changes that one person could easily do in like 3days tops?
>>567834221>I don't know why it was necessary either, just fucking nerf CoCHow, exactly, do you nerf CoC such that Spark-trigger Comet-spam is reigned in yet it is still vaguely functional for non-abusive builds?Because cutting the feedback loop of damage-to-recovery seems to be the critical way to KEEP all such things fixed in the face of Blood Mage.
Hummm is infernalist recoup-based comet coc unnerfed?
>>567834093Retard

>hardcucks
I guess my league starter is going to be plants
>>567834696...Okay, how exactly are you gating Mana Leech out of a feedback loop, and WHAT cooldown?
>>567833348Unironically that's why it's called poop2.
>>567834774It has been that way for all of poe2 leagues. Atlas progress and gold don't carry over, and you'll have to go back to re-unlock the salvage and reforging benches.
>>567834950fernmalem plants are boring thoughbeittho
>>567833728storm wave is as good as ever
>>567834951put a limitation on how quickly energy can be gained or put a CD on CoC going off regardless of energyanything is better than nerfing everyone just because CoC is too strong

not excited for the league mechanic at all, which is ggg's fault, they haven't sold the content well enough for me
>>567836651I legit had to think for 30 seconds to remember what the league mechanic was and its like archnemesis but with runes or someshit. The league itself looked low effort
Mana regen was already a big problem now its gonna be as unfun as everTheyre pushing the warden = ressource shit way too hard imo
>>567836636Pretty sure the Fat Fuck Bear Slams are the exact use-case most likely to be helped.
Now that shieldwall is that, what should I build? I wanna league start warrior
i dont feel like reading the patch notes did they change anything important
>>567836951yeah
Yep looks like im cruising as Varashta
>>567836909earthquake got slightly buffed maybe a earthquake build
>>567836951biggest change of 0.5 is that you have to play the game naked with webcam turned on or you won't drop any loot, not even good

>>567836828Explain how>0.4>I slam pack of mobs>leech from all of them>0.5>I slam pack of mobs>leech from one of them
...Anything that changes Spell Totem cast time while they're down? I'm wondering if it's possible to dial in the cast time/duration relationship on Ember Fusillade to have totems properly stock it up and then unleash. Buildup while you buildup so you can fusillade while you fusillade.
sir jonathan why bastard nerf druid?
>>567836651Who needs league mechanics when they added endgame quests. It took them like a year to finish those after all, it must be a huge game changer.
but did they nerf enough? better nerf melee some more to be sure
ES nerfed?Lol not any more + 20 spirithttps://poe2db.tw/us/Waveshaper
This guy keeps killing me and I can't tell if its the shadow walker or just a shitload of desync.
Are Companions the biggest bait build of the league? >dude we buffed this 10k dps skill by 84%!!!>dude you can tame unique bosses! isn't that epic?! (they take 3 years to wind up an attack)
poo poo pee poodebate meyou won't
>>567837241They were only ever going to be good with infernal legion and that got destroyed so yeah, bait galore
>>567835980buy an ad
>>567837226I forgotShade walkers allows him to tp to you and start draining your life at insane rate? and if you are not ES your super fucked?
>>567833476do maps together, share items
>>567837337Yeah. But it also seems to be teleporting ME around as well.
>>567837226Probably will play chrono cuz of these fucks
>>567837337shadewalker is just he teleports behind you every 3 seconds or so that's it
if you play totems YWNBARS (You will never be a real spellcaster)

Do you think reporting posts for self advertising does anything here?
>>567837537what kind of ESL made thisit looks horrible
>>567837606depends on jannies
>>567836443rightoids don't even have to pretend :^)
>>567837076Think about this in terms of breakpoints: How much mana do you NEED to Leech for your economy to work out, how many mobs did you NEED to hit to reach that, and how much does the latter come down from changes to the former? If it was sustaining that same skill against bosses, it's probably going to do so with less investment.That said, restricted rather than completely removed stacking with a gate of some sort on instant Leech would have given the needed capping behavior for CoC without these awkward considerations for "tame" use.
>>567837000triple barya of truth but I might still dip into chrono or culling threshold monk for fun or do caster version of Varashta since minions are annoying if doing Zolin & bitch in atlas
>>567835808Why are you like this? were you molested as a child?
>After unlocking Verisum Runeforging in Act 1 this system allows you to add Runic Ward to your armours by spending verisium. Armours lower than level 55 gain Runic Ward with no downside. Armours above this level trade some of their regular base defences for Runic Ward.What's stopping me from using lv 54 armor forever and getting FREE runic ward?

>>567837918idk, maybe low overall defensives and low tier mods?

Ctrl+F "Nightscale" - 0 resultsCtrl+F "Forced Outcome" - 0 resultsBuffs:>Refocus Notable Passive Skill now grants 20% increased Mana Regeneration Rate>Inspiration Runes now grant 20/25/30% increased Mana Regeneration Rate when socketed in Staves and Wands (previously 16/20/24%)lmao, so Oracle Comet it isYou don't need leech at all with Nightscale's 500 mana/second regen. A 10-15% flat damage nerf of a comet is irrelevant.The only question is, do I want to try something new like Ice Shot + Snipe, which basically stays the same as well or nah it's comet time once again
>>567837971none of the builds I use to nuke campaign bosses in 1 hit have been nerfedinstead, defenses and movespeed of two purely fun to play but not very effective classes have been nerfed, and now I'm wondering what the fucking idea here is, because all the absolutely overpowered classes are untouched or even got buffs. explain that shit, retard.

One league they'll remember they nerfed SRS into the ground and make it good again... right?
...Is the issue with Fire Spell On Hit Ember Fusillade that it cannot get the More damage for in-sequence outside Additional Projectiles?

I wish reading negative posts didn't affect me as much as it does, I was really looking forward to this new league, but after reading all the issues everyone raised I think I'll just skip it until 1.0
hollow palm chronomancer will be the most KINO build of the game
>>>making them more accessiblethese niggas really tried to paint this as a buff
>>5678389233 most likely
>>567838974KWAB
>>567838974I already skipped 0.4 and now im feeling low motivation for 0.5, although I do wanna see the challenges first
>>567838974I’m just disappointed that COC wasn’t nerfed and the weaker stuff wasn’t buffed.
>>5678389741.0 is gonna suck, bro. Come back for templar in 1.2
>>567838974nigga we don't know anything about the 20+ kalguran skills and new supports or the new lineage supportswe also don't know anything about all the new uniques
>>567839049they meant to see you'll have access to them earlier in the game, but english is not their forte
>>567839126templar got shelved, come back for shadow (now renamed assassin) for 1.5 bro!
>>567838974the league is going to be fine you big baby, there's lots of content at endgame to go through now
What content is melee good at in poe2?
>>567838974Doomposters are dooming so they have less people ahead of them in queue during League launch.
>>567833196I will join it
>>567839349>meleewho cares lmao
>>567834635Stop noticing things
>>567839001wasnt hollow nerfed yet again
>Everything nerfed
>she thinks ritual will be bad money in 0.5Oh no no no
>>567839163nigger who cares about that shit? this is just another vision garbage that requires ward to cast and jumping thru 100 hoops, which means you gonna do it once in a full moon.They keep bloating the game with 90% of useless shit each new league

>>567840512forced to play a game he hates, he lost BIGLY
Why is /poeg/ obsessed with streamers?
>>567840449
>>567840656streamers are /poeg/ culture since 2015, you need to lurk more
All these new shiny uniques and almost none will be used because you lose +levels.Sceptre wasn't nerfed, and +minions wasn't nerfed, so Ravens flock is pretty much dead in the water. The damage lost just equipping that staff is insane. The new companion sceptre, same deal.This applies to so many uniques. For melee and bow perhaps this nerf was enough, but for caster or minion builds (which ironically GGG added the most cool uniques for this league) the consequence in equipping these items is too much.I just think +levels really hinders build creativity and variety.
>>567840656zoomerfaggots love their e-celebsnothing one can do
>perfect trans/augs nerfed>have to pick up T5 magic for crafting now
>>567840656I only watch vtubers and northernlion
what new or buffed things are you looking forward to in 0.5its not just all nerfs, right?
>>567840743uhhh anon on of the ONE HUNDRED AND SIXTY new socketables will be gem levels on unique weapons
>>567836465there were several meta builds last league that were armour/es. it's just a better defensive layer than people seem to think because they still have this preconception from poe 1 that it sucks, when in poe 2 there's very little that "randomly" explodes in your face for 1 million damage and negates your armour and ggg did a very good job at telegraphing giga boss slams in poe 2.
>>567840807-2
>>567840807god, those are awful choices
>>567831662all those armourmaxxers still max their block too.
NERF NERF NERFNO BUFF TO SHIT SKILLONLY NERFLEAVE REALLY BROKEN SHIT UNTOUCHED BTW
>>567837241minions have been bait for the entirety of poe 2's lifespan thus far. the only time they were good was unintentional e.g. cocaine ants and infernal legion, and ended up deleted from the game afterward.
>>567840212i am somewhat hyped to play since i skipped 0.4 and miss the wasd controlsbut another week of waiting.... ugh

I was in this general when Moot was briefly playing and could barely get past act 1. Holy fuck man just take me out back and shoot me, its been so long. Before the freeposter and vocaroofag and projectpt era, the hans and esk era, the 2.0 mess....AAAAAAAAAAA

>>567841431what would "doing some work" consist of, in your mind?
>+ gem levels to spells not nerfed>melee gem levels werefuck you too, jonnyboi
>>567841729wheres her penis?
>>567841729namenamenamenamenamename
>>567841835So just like poo1Gem levels should only be relevant for spells
>>567841867yeon woo
>>567841639Its not just nostalgia. Things really were better
>>567841526
>>567841729i look like this
>>567841562sure... but recoup requires points investment and you also need to get recharge rate and recharge delay or you're just specing into a different kind of restore. the life flask example is particularly funny for you to use because it's only as good as it is on life builds and requires an extra step. great balance analysis genius.
>>567841964gem levels should be relegated to amulets or uniques
They didn't nerf nearly enough.
>>567841835soft
>>567842051no they weren't, it's just nostalgia
>>567841562>make recoup apply to ESThat's an Armour/ES Unique, btw>use new chest that gives constant life flask>make life flask apply to ESHas a fat Less penalty for the automation and charge free nature, which is annoying for prospective Blood Mage tangential use of the charges but that's probably the point.
for me its aris
>>567841562>Rape your life recovery from flasks>Wear a 0 stat chest to solve your recovery>All that just to wear Shavronne's anyway
>>567841639so did pt kill himself or what?
>>567842208Yes, it was and it's not just nostalgia
>>567842208The playerbase was better, and that wasn't just nostalgia. PoE1's early playerbase were diablo refugees that actually enjoyed the friction, and most people played hardcore. modern PoE 1 &2's playerbase is indistinguishable from Diablo players
>>567839623i do not care and the kino chronomancer chadess doesn't either
>>567842163yeah I bet jonathan's numerous fat folds are pretty softyou could stick your head into them and gently suffocate, or find a cursed baby like in dom deluise's folds
>>567841835Vertex was nerfed and that was like 30% of the problem last league.
Here's your only two viable builds for 0.5. Pick your poison:CoC Comet (mana regen Oracle version)Ice Shot + Snipe
>>567842268Isn't it good for blood mages since you have permanent Regen and blood mage gets to run their meme-y damage as extra from flasks node?
>>567842425I'm playing Twister Spiritwalker!
>>567842358>most people played hardcoreWhat did they call softcore players? Scrubcore?
>>567842358poe2's "playerbase" is only worse because of the shills for other companies inventing problems for money.
>>567842358>modern PoE 1 &2's playerbase is indistinguishable from Diablo playersAlmost like Blizzdrones finally stopped pretending that they like D3 or D4.
>>567842425No, thank you. I will still play shieldwall titan
>>567842425Ice Strike Invoker
>>567842425Twister is still in here bros>>567840969Yeah but in said meta builds the gameplay loop included "clear the screen before they could kill you"
>>567842358>indistinguishable from Diablo playersexcept that they're aren't playing diablo, which is more important than anything other characteristic they could have.
>>567842425>Oracle versionpost video/pob
>>567842658you like being suicidal I see xD
>>567842768it's 25$ on my patreon
>>567842358I think that the div per hour and twitchfags are unbearable "people" too, but the game is better now and this game is in the end a single player gameand lots of people would still be playing hardcore and would keep the spirit of being tryhard hardcore games, but GGG ruined it with poe1 having stupid random one shots everywhere, eventually everyone turned to softcore tradeGGG carries a lot of the blame for what happened to the community
>>567840743To be fair it seems if you stick to state mandated companion ascendancy (Huntress with the 60% added), you shouldn't need too many levels on companions to compete with minions
>>567837537poe2 youtube is genuinely grim.
>>567842825That's not cool dude, you can't just undercut the market like that.

they should have buffed the weak ascendencies more, chrono and gemling wasn't enoughI do think the leech nerfs are going to hit people way harder than they realize and make lots of .4 stuff unviable now but when there's no alternative people will just play the same thing again but weaker
I want to play the worst skill that isn't supercharged slam so I can have a fun 0.1 experience through the new endgame. I'm thinking some parry shenanigans. Which is worse: elemental sundering or wind serpent's fury?
>>567837639>>567842932>NOOO MUH YOUTUBE AESTHETICSsocial media is a trap for retards and we get the content we deserve
>summoner unchangedGood. We won.
>>567842705>Yeah but in said meta builds the gameplay loop included "clear the screen before they could kill you"there's very little in poe 2 that can kill you, as I said, which is why armour/es is a good defense in the game. armour has always been good at mitigating small hits in both games, and poe 2 has no real danger from random surprise big hits.
what's good leveling league start build for Sorc?
>>567843727>Huntressadd at least 3-4 more skills
ggg made playing hardcore on poe1 harder than having a job at NASA and that drove away the soulful people and nurtured a community of twitch loser viewers that chase div/hour with zhp builds and can't think for themselves and create a build to save their lives
>charged mark support unchangednice, I hecking love free damage
its still fucking forever until the actual launch of the league... GRIM
>>567843356>>567843517>everyone running +4 vertexI'm guessing it's still strong without
>>567843817Limit stacking (jung has a guide) is pretty good and I don't think any part of it got nerfed.

Quin and Zizaran (multi millionaires with six figure salaries) telling GuyThatDies (NEET that fully relies on his parents) that its unethical for him to try and monetize his buildsGuess which side the community took in this dispute
>>567843517have you played the build yourself? i clicked on some pobs and the mana regen did not look goodno way to recover es either
>>567844510You lost, tranny.
couldn't care less
>>567844558STOP TALKING ABOUT E-CELEBS, ZOOMER RETARD.
>>567843724Chrono is arguably the best ascendancy in the game provided you don't fall into the ES trap
>>567844558I heard both Quin and ZI ZI RAN were born into millionaire with six figure salaries families.
>>567844558quin and ziz are self-made millionaires. they worked their way up. both have loving families and support their local communities with their taxes, more so than the leeching neet.
Absolute retards putting ice tipped twisters as levelingNo way that combo survives
>>567844558>that its unethical for him to try and monetize his buildsHow do you monetize a build? The moment someone "buys" you a build he can just post it for other people for free and theres nothing you can do about it because you can't copyright a build guide.
>>567844793quin is from a wealthy jewish familyzizaran is from a country that has 0 poor people
>>567844425How's the clear?
I'm hoping for the new monk ascendency to be somewhat good.But I don't want to play it with quarterstaff.
>>567844875How do you monetize a film? The moment someone "buys" you a film he can just post it for other people for free and theres nothing you can do about it
>>567844913being white and jewish is somehow a bad thing now. I hate this day and age.
>>567844214lol that looks fucking stpretty good
quin is jewish?!?!?
>erm its unethical for GuyThatDies to monetize his buildsWhy?>the moment someone buys his build he can spread it for freeOkay so he wont succeed then, why are we worried about something that is destined to fail? Let him monetize his builds and then use it for free, nothing changes, right?

>>567842358there was never a point in time when "most people" played hardcore. the difference back then was that many streamers played hardcore and it was treated sort of like a badge of prestige, but now nobody gives a shit and most of those hc players either left or now play softcore because there's just too much bullshit in the game now.
>>567844971jews aren't white
the fact that the best melee ascendancies are now chronomancer and abyss lich both witch and sorc and not monk or warrior is fucking hilarious to me
>>567844875wait really? someone can just redistribute your intellectual property? no way
>>567844558I don't give a fuck about Zi Zi Ran or any other content creator. I will say that anyone willing to pay for build guides are retarded and should be euthanized.

>>567844214>7000 buttons just to kill one mob
>>567845086Only from his mother's side!
>>567844118it got nerfed again this patch (bigly)
>>567845119Its not impressive to play HC anymore because all they do is play white maps for 50 hours before touching a magic map for the next 50 hours and then they touch rare maps after 100 hoursThe real prestige in this game right now are valdo void maps. Thats actual risk and difficulty
>>567845095do you know what setting a precedent means?
>>567844587Yes, PoB does not calculate Arcane Surge properly and bunch of other stuff like constant mana flask and even runes. You are so never out of mana that I added MoM at some pointI played similar to this https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/vaal/character/Magnesiium-3216/LosogMagsOnceAgane?i=5 but with ES->Mana conversionMana nodes were buffed, so it became even better
People are going to be so hyped about res swapped and then next patch when you don't have the runes in every map they'll shit their diapers because of how expensive it is
>>567845174What IP? The IP is owned by GGG.
Is there a list of cringe layouts?I keep thinking>I'm pretty sure that one was alrightAnd then OOPS all corridors

>>567845828based
GGG need to let me edit the recommended support gems before league launch or I will have a seizure.
>>567845678temp rift, recoup, recharge on gear its not that bad you just have to invest more, the fact that you get 60% skill speed chrono and can scale attack speed with attack speed with abyss lich to the point you can movement speed your way around the map with boneshatter is evident of this
>/v/ is making fun of us again
WHERE THE FUCK ARE THE +GEM LEVEL NERF
>>567846059*scale attack speed with dead minions with abyss lich*
pathfinder it is
>>567845374interesting, i played eb mom coc comet oracle in 0.4 but with costs converted to life. if you can actually get enough mana recovery thats basically the same build but better. bravo jonathan
>>567846059what recoup, lmao
>>567846343Converted minions, there's no time-gate on needing to kill them. Which means you get NO skeletons, Clerics included, significantly bottlenecking some shenanigans.

I play djinnmancer again. It was comfy.
>>567846382pathfinder got gutted, retard

>>567846720What makes this a good pick
>>567846682lich looks better for endgame yeah
>>567846720fubcuck ice shot video dropping in few dayshybrid ev/esobliterator bowcadirio's gambitmaybe even a rhoa
>>567846701you need to know what you are doing in terms of build making because it is very specific in what you need to do to recover the damage it does to you for specific ascendancy points like demon form and i believe its called infernal flame i have not played it since 0.1 >>567846854yeah i might go for it then make chrono my second character its a long league
>only 2 more hours till OUR FUARKING HERO QUIN69 IS LIVEBASED BASED BASED. OUR FUARKING HERO LOVES POO 2 AND HE IS GONNA GIVE THE MOST KINO OF TAKES TODAY WHILE PISSING OFF TROONS
whats the point of chronomancer when all the nodes are defensive and the game is essentially a dps check unless u're playing hardcore?
>>567846720We're playing 3.29 in a month
>>567847052i am 40 years old and type like this and think like this
what ascendancy do i play if i want to try the new Kalguuran skills but don't know what they will scale with?
>>567846701the 50% more crit damage is nice i played this with tangletongue pre nerf you just need to handle the self ignite somehow
>>567847131Im actually 30 thoughbeit
>>567847106you mean phrecia 3.0 in a month
>>567847140we dont know what those skills are yet so dno
>>567846396There is also a bug with Lavianga + waistgate belt, which lets you use 2 mana flasks even when the belt is unequipped https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/vaal/character/%E6%B9%BF%E6%B7%8B%E6%B7%8B%E7%9A%84%E9%A9%AC%E9%9D%A2-1420/%E4%BA%94%E9%87%91%E4%B8%80%E5%A4%B4?i=8 PoB does not calculate shit, but I can guarantee this guy deletes maps while being invulnerable if using ahk. I would rather convert everything into mana tho with ward
>>567847095thats why im bitching about inevitable agony not having curse effect scaling being a bad thing because i seen a video where it scaled the damage it did prior to the change so im pretty sure 50% damage could then become 100% or more if you go full scale curse effect why they removed this 1 avenue to go and scale damage for chrono is confusing to me as we know abyss lich has minions, blood mage has crit if chrono had curse effect scale and 25% starting point then it would be a great ascendancy imo i just see it reaching a ceiling in damage compared to all other builds
>>56784665830% less mobility instead of 50%? yes I am aware about the poison duration but there are other builds than poisonburst arrow. you still have immunity against stuns while sprinting, less mobility penalty, immunities against all slows, elemental mitigation and extra skill points.
>OH MYYYY HECKIRINO THEY NERFED SOMETHING BY 0.1% MY HECKIN LEAGUE LAUNCH IS RUINED AAIIIIIEEEEEEEE
>>567847443can you put two lavignas this way and both will apply?
>>567847095Previously? It was just a utility class. Now it has that shopping retarded 40% more damage node without a trade off, despite the circumstance of being limited with what spell you can use
i love streamers, they are my friends
>>567847595its not 40% they nerfed agony
>The Corruption outcome that randomises the numeric values of the modifiers on an item beyond the normal range now multiplies each modifier based on the current value, instead of randomising the value.if omen of corruption is removed then how can you get out of base roll range now? regular vaal orb does it or is it some memetable in temple ?
>follow some fag youtuber's build because I don't want to learn poop2>fag youtuber makes youtube video saying build is completely fine after patch notes>fag youtuber also streams on twitch>check the stream to get updates on the build>fag youtuber on streams says the complete opposite and how he'll have to find different skills for single target and that the build will play differently?????I'm not playing this game anymore, everyone in this community is fucking stupid
>Bad news for my haters, I woke upSpeaking of which, what do I think about the patch notes?
>>567847736retard
>>567847443lmao, i guess its not a secret>invulnerable if using ahkhow so?
>>567847578You can equip two but only one will give you the constant mana regen
>>567847575this but unironically
>>567847667A man only needs a wife and family. Friends are completely optional so streamer friends are a fine replacement
>>567847710Pretty sure the Omen just removed the do-nothing roll, so in exchange for going from ~1/3rd to ~1/4th and not having the chance of a shit roll instantly turning great you get to have high rolls guaranteed to become 20% worse at most. Which means many-value Div-sinks are going to translate into a lot more Corrupted pushes since the odds aren't absurdly astronomical.
ggg has to target nerf the autistic streamers because they skew too many people to run their builds
>>567847578no, why? Lavignas recovery is shit (60 in 2 seconds) the bug is about applying it's continuous effect to the other "%increase recovery amount" flask, so you have a constant flow of 200mana/second from the flask, which after all modifiers from the tree/quests/belt becomes 600-700/sec from the flask only. And 1.5k-2k/sec total
>>567847858wife and family are only some minor (optional) check boxes in life. nice to have but entirely optional. wealth, staying healthy and turbo gooning are the most important things. god told me so so I know its true.
>>567847710regular vaal orb still goes over the base roll range, its probably going to multiply the current roll by 0.78 - 1.22it means that you cant use vaal orbs to divine a shit roll but it should also be easier to get a good roll if the item is already max divined. its a huge buff to omen of sanctification too
streamers don't know you exist, stop calling them your friends, it's pathetic as fuck
>>567848186CuteDog is my friend
>>56784813830mana/s is big especially if you couple it with other sources of mana/s and mana cost reduction. you can make it so that you never run out of mana. its insane qol but requires some investment.
/v/ is laughing at us again
>>567848186>streamer says thank you for the sub>they laugh at the sub message along with chatthey are my friend>NOOOOOOOOOO NO NO NO BUT BUTguess your friends suck then and you're jealous.Loser.
so now that EV+ES hybrid got nerfed, what will be the substitute? just full ES?I tested armour a lot last two leagues and it definitely works, same for ES, but ES+EV always felt like the squishy little brother of those two to me. never tried pure EV, I'm not that insane.
>>567848186Quin is parasocial with his audience. He thinks we're HIS friends
>>567848186they always say my name when I dono bomb, retard
>>567848138oh cool bug i dont use a life flask anyway
>>567848186lily is literally my girlfriend
>>567848435>my friends pay slight attention to me when i give them moneywow anon, such nice """friends"""
>>567848679lily is literally my boyfriend
>>567847667its ok boomers were the same way with tv shows
>The Vertex Unique Helmet can no longer roll +2-4 to Level of All Skill Gems, instead now being able to roll +3-5 to Level of All Curse Skill Gems.Are existing items affected or not?
>>567848706and your friends use you and laugh behind your back for being fat and gay. Guess I won in the end althoughbeit
>>567848894don't have any and don't need
>>567848884no but also who the fuck cares
>>567848706>talk to friend in real life>he lets me watch him play a game I like>he says something funny and makes me laugh>give him $5 in appreciation
>>567848884I dont think so
!
>>567848186Lily is my GIRLfriend
>>567848186she said my name when I donated $500we're basically dating
>>567848994i like to upgrade my standard league characters after every league so thats cool
>>567847736>do not want to learnwhy the fuck you even here, faggot
>>567848884In a few years a +4 Vertex is going to be worth a pretty penny.Shame it'll be imprisoned in EA Standard where nobody will ever care about it.
>>567849054the internet and gaming went to shit when teenagers/young adults from the 2000s got money in their 30s to constantly throw awaythats how we ended up with streamers and microtransactions
>>567849054jesus
>>567849097I love that. I always throw a few dollars at lily when I need a quick nut
>>567849054how does one prevent people from becoming like thisin all seriousness, what causes this, what kind of mental illness or brainwashing is this
How is the new Cat o' Nine Tails unique not a flail
>>567849139saar bloody benchood do the needful in other thread saar please go now
>Skills which previously had no cost now have a cost of 0, specifically so if they can cost something if a cost is added to themIndescribably gay.
>>567849054summit1g is my friend
>>567849373>Cost multiplierMultiply of 0 is still 0.
Man, he really can't stop milking this joke, huh.
>>567849363>actually being racist against peaceful indians I thought this was a /v/ only thing. Its so sad seeing this spread to cozy path of exile 2 threads
>>567849363ah, you're a stupid jeet, it must be a cultural thing
>you're indian>no you're indiandon't you ever get tired of doing this all day
>>567849156ea league is going to be completely irrelevantno race rewards so theres nothing to spend your currency on and it will stop receiving new stuff after 1.0 so it will have even fewer players than regular standard
>>567849720Plot twist they're both pajeets.
>>567849625saar jeet means victoryyou lost saaryou go now
Are all those poe 2 threads on /v/ for the past 3 years really false flags ?????
>>567849464Nobody said Multiplier quadruple retard.Currently, the only example of this is Shaman's Rage node which gives every Skill (excluding ones which had no cost.. until now) a cost of 5 Rage.So Shaman's Rage node just got giganerfed and it was already bad.There will probably be some flat cost adding effects in 0.5 as well.
What the fuck is going on here
I wanna play, release it already
>you are le indianyou are just saying i am the most highly paid, respected immigrant demographic highly represented in tech.... ouch, that's a really sick burn...
>>567849909Pretty sure someone let a bot loose in here and it's just spewing random shit back at people to farm (You)s.There's also at least one real shitposter doing the same thing.
>>567849934>hertaschizogo back to your blacked discord
>>567850049Z
I don't care how dogshit this unique is for not having +levels on it, literally every single fucking spell skill in poo2 feels terrible so even though this is basically a curse-based Somatic Shell (one of the more mediocre wand skills in poe1) by default it's gonna be 100x comfier to play than any of the garbage builder spender mmo garbage they're making. It's a weapon skill so mana costs are already solved, no need to care about leech or regen. Don't need curse effect or curse limit. Just need projectile damage, physical/chaos damage. It's 100% physical/chaos damage so you can poison proliferate or chain herald of blood+bursting plague. if
JONATROON
Saars please
>>567850195You need shit ton of AoE, since it only targets cursed enemies
Was wyvern nerfed?
>no new threadits over...
>>567850049no clue what you're talking about, schizo
>>567851064>>567851064>>567851064>>567851064>>567851064free thread no bitching
>>567851128>free thread>poopNope, crit fail. Doing LESS would've been a better outcome.
make a real thread
>>567850809Yes, Rend got nerfed by 3xDealt ~1200% damage at 20, now deals 400% damage at 20And splash was heavily nerfed so worse AoE
when they released the game I couldn't believe that this was everything and was sure that they would now release new content every month or so.then I thought they will fix defenses.then I thought they will balance underpowered stuff.but none of that happened. content just wasn't done and took 1,5 years to release. new classes stopped releasing. instead of balancing, we got nerfs to things that weren't even overpowered. and especially the nerfs tell a story: there will be more nerfs in the future. ggg wants defenses to be impossible to stack in any way. they seem to believe that dying more often = more time invested into the game.
>everyone is crying about mana regennoob hereis mana flask not enough to 'solve sustain'>spend mana>mobs die>dead mobs give flask charges>use blue bottle>mana go up>spend mana?????no?
>>567849880They put this zero cost on crossbow ammo switching, so whatever there is that adds a flat cost to something, would make switching ammo cost that
>>567848186wrong the 5 viewer vtuber I watch is my friendnot telling you perverts who she is
>>567851372The issue is more having to constantly sip your flask feels annoying. If you have to have it up 100% of the time, why not just delete it and buff Mana regen?
>>567851761game is not supposed to be easy, solving the puzzle is fun
>>567847443>>567848138explain how the bug works i have done everything but the flask only gives me 30 mana per second
>>567851761nta, but a good example for their usage is low mana skills for mapping, and high mana skills for bosses. my poison+bleed crossbow build can auto-attack through maps with okay speed and uses no mana at all. against bosses, I drop gas grenades that deplete my mana, then I use plasma shot with a support gem that uses my mana flask charges. mana flask enables me to play like this without investing a single point into mana reg.
>Lunar Blessing: Triggered Moonbeams are no longer considered melee skillsZERO FUN ALLOWED
>>567853172suffering is good
>>567846059>>567846682okok I'm following. But what do league start then?
>>567853808true and basedpoe2 will need a ruthless mode soon with all the bloat
>>567849720Statistically they are both right
>>567855364brotherdude you cant post stuff like that. I can literally see her areolas and her vulva
>>567855574you're imagining things, she's covered, i could frame her on my work office wall
>Paquate's Pact: No longer causes the supported skill to inflict Corrupted Blood, but instead it triggers a skill which inflicts Corrupted Blood, scaled by the level of the gem it is socketed into. No longer has Lose 2% of maximum Life per Corrupted Blood inflicted by Supported Skills. Instead, it now has Supported Skills Cost 10% of maximum Life for each time they've been used Recently, up to a maximum of 30%Haha, hope you didn't wanna like have a free skill inflict Corrupted Blood.Cause now it's going to cost ONE THIRD of your HP BASELINE
>>567855728how is she covered I can LITERALLY see her slit.
>>567855971are you blind and dumb?... that's her leg thigh to the left
>>567856072we will see about that
>>567856167doubt you can even find the right button, retard
>>567856361oh I found it trust me
>>567856480found what

>>567849321
>>567855848I don't understand, this support was already considered kind of a meme why even change this?
>>567851372Mana Regen is rarely the problem between supplies and leech. The problem is more that>Spellcasters can't get leech>Arcane surge often isn't enough so you have to get creative with setups like curse loops or lifetap record>Sipping mana from flasks is pretty boring
