If reflect is good why doesn't poe2 have it?
Anyone else consider the last 2 asc points as a bonus? I can almost never get them and if I do, I'm level 90+ and basically done with the league.
>>568112517because poe 2 isn't good

how the FRICK will hollow form work with ice strike
If every poe 1 player just died tomorrow, how much better would the world be?
>>568113316I have 300+ hours and have never done it on any character in poe2. Furthest I got was in the last floor of sekhamas and then just instantly died about halfway through the floor. Couldn't identity what killed me yet I was doing fine up to that point. All that time wasted killed my motivation to try again.
>>568113846from the wording the clones will probably just repeat the first part of the attack over and over againaka dogshit
>>568112391last time on
>>568112910Bad gear can gatekeep 4th asc desu>>568113000nice trips, melee?
>>568113880retard
>>568113880Probably the shotgunning fire trap. Not sure if its fixed now?
>>568113846I think Ice Strike's combo is considered separate attack casts so each hollow form clone will just do the first hit and disappear
Unarmed MA is guaranteed to be bad right
>>568112517Because reflect isnt good poo1 is an antiquated dogshit cookie clicker game
>>568113178>>568112539They don't call it trial of suck my ass for nothing
>>568113964sums it up quite well
>>568114148retard
>>568113964>brown bullshitsums up the whole thread really
>>568113880Shotgunned by the little time dudes or poison. Did you grab the % lost on hit? If you did, the big vase beetles instakill you with their swarm ability and fire traps also instakill you. Generally, even Zarokh doesn't do any damage worth considering if you move in a circle>>568114013They fixed poison and ignite deleting honor and life, but not multihit
I only do the final 2 points once I can one shot all the bosses in ultimatum. Not doing T4 sanctum
>>568113952>>568114053wouldn't holding down hollow form for a longer period of time make the clones do the full combo attack?
>>568113880>Instantly died on the last floor of Sekhemasthis retard to the -3% health on hit Affliction, got machine gunned by the machine gun monsters on Zarokh's floor, meltied so hard he quit POE2, then proceeded to continue whining about it on /pooegg/how much money have you pissed away on tradie streamer subs, nigger?
>>568114089Why? Glove node is nearly custom built for Hollow Palm>500 evasion and 200 ES on glovesGenuinely better than some helmets
>>568114013>>568114263Is attempting the trial of chaos for the last two points worth it in any capacity or is it generally just harder despite being shorter?
>>568114318No it just spawns more clones
>>568114557trial of chaos is like a billion fucking times harder
>>568113846kek it says any melee attack i will put rake in iti wonder if you can put it in without having a spear equipped.. will it then use your quarterstaff to calculate damage?
thread theme?
>>568113150top secret spirit walker tech
>>568114664that's gay and retardedwhat about falling thunder if I have power chargeswill they just be consumed by hollow form and clones just cast gay shitty small baby dick falling thunders?
>>568113964>GAME>LEAGUE>PLAY>POE2DOOMBROS?????EMERGENCY MEETING RIGHT FUCKING NOW WERE LOSING THE NARRATIVE
>>568114871it says socketed skills cannot consume charges so yeah
>>568114701I figured such. I hope whatever new trials we get in the future are at least FUN.
>>568114461did they show what the +level to mellee gems affix transforms to?
>>568114557It has it's pros and cons for both, Sugma is clearly longer and overall much more demanding because both the two dudes and the scorpion boss are ass-cancer tier fights despite having an easier final boss, but it's not as prone to bad RNG and unfair situations as Chaos. Chaos is probably the easiest to do assuming you don't die to the tornado bird or get the type of RNG that forces you to take ghosts and turrets with the payload segment. Frankly, I consider Sekhema easier since relics are OP and you can become almost immortal if you know what you're doing, but just as easily you can be forced into bad mods if you're unlucky
>>568114952you will be happy to learn that just yesterday I believe mark and jon said they want to go back to both trials and rework them to be more on the level of quality of the rest of the league mechanics.
>>568114997yes+2 to level of melee skills transformed into +1 level of melee skills and +10% quality of skills
>>568112939but you are the eat of the shit like me, rrright
>>568115053poe1jeets ruining everything AGAINFUCK this company i can't fuvking beliece i bought 6 support packs
>>568115015So what do I need to look for with relics to better myself for sekhamas?
>>568114871>>568114950Hollow Form itself consumes the charges first to give you many baby dick falling thunders, so yeah charge synergy isn't there. It's basically just for whirling assault or non-charge aoe slooms. If it ignores cooldowns, cross-slash as a shapeshifter or bear slams might be ideal as a variant of using feral invocation but>shapeshifting ES/EV monkSounds terrible from a stat perspective. Maybe you can summon multiple wyvern breaths? I haven't read the full skill
comparison is the thief of joy
>>568113851you first, 2rist
I WANT FUCKING REFUNDNO LONGER GAME I PAID FORGGG IS SCAM
>>568115276>just for whirling assaultbut whirling assault is TERRIBLE on monkyou need the warrior nodes for that skill to be good
>>568115410I paid $400 for this game and am very happy with it
>>568114997>>568115127Skill quality seems blatantly inferior to +2 levels on 99% of skills tbqh>>568115245The smallest ones can roll merchant prices, honor resistance, more water, and movement speed. Generally you want to prioritize>Merchant price and choices>Movement speed>honor resistance>water per map/on killThe main strategy for an easy Sekhema is to roll as many OP major boons on the merchant as you can, if you get the one that lets you see the entire floor you can't get bricked by bad RNG or bad routing but it's rare. Merchant price drop is another S-tier one. You want to prioritize water for the first two levels and buy something you like at the end of each level. You don't "need" 75 honor res but it saves you a lot of headache, especially on a melee build

ready for your "teaser", anon? HNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG BRAPPPPPPPPPP FRRrrrrrrrttttt plop plop
>>568115127seems like a downgrade for hollow palm since you get flat phys based on gem level. unless your skill is really dependent on quality
>>568115938It's Sunday
Never got the fourth ascendancy either, with 600 hours between both games. Never used an awakened gem either, or anointed an item. Best drop I ever got was a day 1 EE last league that sold for nothing since I didn't know it was made tier 0.I just make really shitty homebrew builds and give up once progress slows in red maps.
What anime should i watch until 29th?
>>568115942for hollow palm youll want to use the thunderfists and they transform to ice

>The Commanding Rage Notable Passive Skill now grants 2% increased Minion Attack Speed per 5 Rage (previously 1% per Rage).Were wolves just too absurdly powerful that they needed to gut this?
>>568116086>not stat stacking HoWAStat stacking is a pathway to damage some at GGG might consider... unnatural
whirling assault is such an awful skill
>>568113964ssf freeze twisters btw
>>568116338retard
>>568116338the 1h mace that allows you to gain attack speed per rage is the sole reason it gets nerfed
>>568116182Why? Aren't you going to be grabbing the superior crit nodes ranger-side and the herald tree anyway?>>568116338Nah, Pack Tac's damage was ethical even with this node, you had to jump through gigahoops for DPS and still relied on a level 35 pounce gem lol. This seems like a pre-emptive totem warrior and zoomancer huntress nerf, wolf-spam simply got caught in the crossfire. The main dude for it says it should still be league start viable and worth using lategame, but it's no longer granting 90% more damage to minions
>>568116662retard
>>568116559>paying for the sins of zoom-zoom players againIt's unfair bros, why not just gut the mace?
I wish everyone that plays the game exclusively to get to the end game to die in a car crash. There is no "meta". You're not "competing". There's no pvp or money on the line. You're all retarded faggots.
>>568116960that poe2 players cried so hard they got guaranteed tinks every 3secs then called it the best league ever will never not be embarrassing
>>568116035genre?

>>568117297I really enjoy to turn of my brain and watch some mindless action.Solo leveling is probably peak in my opinion.I also like good story and character centered animes like Frieren or Cowboy beebop
>>568116960>hard to go above 68% evasionprobably the biggest self report
>>568117365As based as it gets.
>>568116662>but it's no longer granting 90% more damage to minionsI dunno, the tradeoff is that you had to build around rage and that's in itself enough of a limitation.
>>568116960*TINK*HOLY FUCKING BASED GGGWE ARE SO FUCKING BACKTHE ECONOMY IS HEALINGMY KIDS ARE TALKING TO ME AGAIN MY WIFE CAME BACKCHRIS WILSON HIMSELF PLACED THIS DIVINE DIRECTLY INTO MY STASH TABLOOT HAS RETURNEDEXILES WINNINGDOPAMINE MAXXINGMF CHADS STAY WINNING*TINK*AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
>RF staff requires you to give up +7 gem levelsliterally dead on arrival
>>568116960grim
>>568117365I think at this point they're trying to have it both ways, also that was probably a pretty juiced martial artist that they showed off so people would feel like it does damage, if it did even a one minute xesht everyone would consider it shit out the gatehaving said, the general recount of jonathan's experiences in the interview with the ginger yesterday makes me feel they haven't given up on combat you can actually interact with and just don't have to statcheck
tinkGAWDS wonslow and methodical shitters lost bigly
GGG NEEDS to kill off trade in poe2. Trade is what allows these jamboys to rush to end game and pretend there's a "meta"
>>568117365kinda funny how Troonyman and his loyal dog can rework and bloat the shit out of poo the second, but still dont have forums on the poo2 website

>>568117710gem levels are less important this league

>>568117710>rf players caring about low dpsgoing to have 20% play rate

>>568117365>2 games>same endgame
>"NOOOOOO I WANT POOP 2 TO BE JONATROONS VISION">0.2 released and it was a disaster so bad that jonatroon was literally crying and zizaran seething>even the biggest normalfag youtuber cr1tical was crying about the patch to millionsYou dont want jonatroons TRUE poop 2 vision. It nearly killed the game
>>568117858they're not less important, gem balance is still the same and you still have insane exponential growth past level 20 a +7 spells staff will obliterate a 200% increased, 50% gain spell staff with +2 because of the way scaling works in this gameattacks are a bit different and not as strong but spells and minions remain the same because you're scaling base stats
>>568117884trvkethese pajeet troons play the game mode that lets you put each and every passive point and gear affix into damage and complain that they're blowing up screens and killing bosses in 10 seconds. the solution is right there.
>>568114185FUCKING KEK
>>568118093>Zizaran refuses to engage with disenchanting to make campaign regals>Gets an interview with lead dev complaining that he has no regals because he chose not to get regals and he should get regals even if he knowingly chose to not have any regals1trannies are insufferable
>>568116975i think melee splash is coming to minions now though? so thats a tiny plus
Jonathan fears this man.
>>568116662I don't want to go crit, if I go crit might as well just use the monk area since it has the best crit nodes.I I wanna go to warrior for area dmg and warcries. don't think early crit whirling assault is good. I made a tree and at lvl 62 I have everything I need from the warrior side, aoe and all the warcry shit. maybe much later might go crit if the damage falls off.
None of these complaints pale in comparison to the FACT that HC server literally has easy mode toggled on with less damage and more drops
>>568113150Ice shot + snipe if I figure out how to script the perfect window, like no way I’ll be gazing at the character’s animations in this visual clusterfuck
>>568117884the cope that follows is pure mental gymnastics. Softcuck players calling the game easy will NEVER stop being hilarious.
>>568118245can they add convocation next so minions don't dance in front of doorways like the three stooges
>>568118258>I played SSF to level 60 and basically beat itLMAO
>>568118404no, thats the real minion-tax

>Softcuck players calling the game easy will NEVER stop being hilarious.
>>568118119what's better +7 staff or +5 wand with +3 focus
>>568118372can we see your level 100 SSFHC character?
>>568117592True but Merc is actually in the perfect spot to go for minions while grabbing some rage, so it wasn't entirely insane. Still though, there's no compensation buffs to the minions and I doubt it'll ever go below a 3 minute Xesht again as Xesht will just kill dogs if he isn't instakilled and stunned
>>568118359WTF is this true????Did Jonatroon make Hardcore easy difficulty? Is that why Quin can play the game?
Why can't you customise your character in these games
>>568118258>I don't play meta builds, I just coincidentally played a meta build and INSTANTLY KILLED a tutorial boss??? WTF Jonathan?!?!?!>And I tried SSF, I took it to the endgame level of 60!!!What is this nigga smoking
>>568118258he might have a really good point but I didn't bother reading all that and neither does ggg.
>>568118708retard
>>568117710On the one hand>Free gigantic minion, but yeah it's kind of stupid of GGG to do this, generally you can only get 5 minion levels from scepters so a companion Raven isn't really missing out *that* much, but it probably isn't a super huge damage compromise.>>568117858This is false, there's simply less gem levels available for attack builds
stop calling me a retard
>>568118727>can't say the game is easy because you interacted with the new content from a patchyou are the biggest retard
>>568118747Well why can't you?
>>568118639Where are you getting +3 foci thou
>>568118706Yes, hardcore is easier by default. Streamers also have a better client
>>568116338nah thats a targeted nerf at movement speed tech that just hurts yifflords as collateral787prada made a video showing how to get like 60% attack speed from putting eternal rage in weapon set 1 alongside boneshatter with Commanding Rage and a Trenchtimbre, offhand empty for Dance With Death, so you get like 150% attack speed and can use it as a PoE1-style movement skill like Shield Charge or Leap Slam zooming around without any movement speed investment on tree. https://youtu.be/SGwFyH03W94?&t=2496This is also why the patch notes nerfed Eternal Rage to no longer work with weapon sets, you could use boneshatter as movement between packs regenerating it and then save 100 spirit on your attack skills before going back to zooming
>>568118614This is true thoughbeit
>>568118651I never get to 100. I have a job and family. But despite being a gamer dad I still play hc trade and hcssf depending on the league.
>>568118846the characters are actual characters, with their background stories
hardtroons really play immortal builds in white maps for a month then pretend they're good at video games
>>568118614>logoutcore cucks at it again
>>568118639A +7 staff with a +3(4) focus, but if you aren't playing the superior Varashta then you wandcuck>>568118245I guess you can also give minions rage innately so you can get them 30% more damage that way, but I don't think that's adequate compensation when you have to give up a support for it
>>568114185
If Jonatroon listened too ALL of poop generals major complaints and put them in the game would the game get better or worse?
>SCtroons melting down because they've realized hard mode is literally right there and they simply don't want to play it >They must finally cope with the fact that they never wanted a challenge to begin with, they just want harder bosses so they can get schadenfreude from watching streamers dieGod I love to see it
>>568117884TRVTH GRAVEBLAST DETONATIVN
i aint reading any comment on the forums from people who have bought 0 supporter packs
>>568118851isnt +3 standard on foci? i have this one on my chronomancer
>>568117858They did not make a single balance change to gem level scaling. You will still more-than-double your damage from +7 gem levels.What they did do is nerf every melee build by reducing +gem levels on weapons by -2 at the top end, and making perfect essence of battle worthless at +3. This just means every Attack and Melee build will be doing 30% less damage in 0.5 vs 0.4, they did not change skill scalings whatsoever. Spells and minions were completely unchanged by the patch as well and you'll still end up with +14 gem levels to play any endgame spell or minion build
>>568118980can we see your hardcore characters
>SCtroons melting down because they've realized hard mode is literally right there and they simply don't want to play it
>>568119219it would be a Doom game and it would be great
>>568118313I'm just not sure what you can grab for attacks pathing up? It's the same distance pathing down as up>>568118860I don't understand why not just nerf this in particular instead of nerfing everything this build is using?

im starting to come to the conclusion chrono is better than lich for defences and offences with its changes30% DR plus instant full life and ES recovery with Temp Rift Vs 30% DR for Lich with no instant recovery60% skill speed to 60% AOE vs low life casting which is maybe 30% cast speed and some incrased damageagony vs chaos on death and or 5% ES and life remove for % more damage however you lose any fast casting build this will fuck you even with 14k ES i tried this shit i think im going chrono
>>568119125You know it's bad when even the jamboys are calling out this infatuation with end game obsessers
>>568119471It should end up +1 anyway because of the changes. Typically though you round up when the main number is odds
>>568119530>>568119596damn.. i didnt play a caster in 0.4 so...
Well?
>HCchads hone their bodies and their minds. >>568119534I had this before, turned out my fan stopped working, check your current core temps (tool is literally called "core temp") and reaply termopaste.
>>568119550This didn't work in PoE1 and it doesn't work in PoE2. The truth is that they'd have to give every skill a similar amount of damage that then could be scaled at the passive tree, and they literally are incapable of this. We have skills that deals 1m DPS on a budget and skills that struggle to break 200k DPS. If the damage numbers elusively dictated by them, it'd be a complete fucking disaster, because now you can't rely on gems to fix it.

>>568121827retard
>>568120884I think the mechanic is you take the 9% you aren't mitigating as a hit so it should still influence max hit right?>>568121129What? Where are you getting .7 by 0.3? From my reading of the node you are immediately taking 70% of the original damage and then a further 30% of the mitigated damage, therefore the formula should be (0.3 x 0.3 = 0.09 received damage). 0.7 + 0.09 is exactly 0.21 less than 1 at 0.79. I may be reading this incorrectly though, my apologies if so

>>568121992good morning saaars
about a week ago i made a post asking which arpg should be my first ever. got a lot of recommendations, but in the end i went with poe2and man… this game is way too good.yeah, i only got like 25 hours so far. spent basically all that time doing the first 4 acts, learning systems and figuring stuff out, which probably sounds slow for experienced players :D and yeah, i still haven’t touched endgame yet.but even just these first acts were an insanely good experience. buildcrafting already feels awesome and honestly the game is less overwhelming than i expected. only got lost a couple times during the actsright now i’m just waiting for may 28. i know endgame is getting heavily reworked in 0.5, so i kinda dont wanna spoil it for myself. just wanna start fresh with all the new stuff and experience it properly from zero.playing bleed huntress atm. went ritualist ascendancy, but from what i’ve heard amazon is stronger for bleed. probably gonna reroll that next time. build itself is from the internet tho, no way im making my own build yet :D although i already changed a few talents around myself after trying to understand what would work betterhonestly the game is amazing. animations, skills, support gems, crafting, game optimization, all of it feels super polished. already saw some of the 0.5 nerfs too, but i was planning to go full evasion + deflection anywayoverall, game’s just peak :D
>>568121716>Youjo Senki>REDLINEBased department? My personal recommendations are currently more Gundam but I can try others.>Gundam Hathaway(but only after watching CCA and a recap video)>Kara no Kyoukai movies>Fate UBW>ID:Invaded>Brand New Animal>Little Witch Academia
>>568122291Many are saying this :D
Everything good about POE1 is good despite how fucking shitty of a game it is and POE2 is better in every single way that matters.POE 2's shortcomings will be fixed with content patches. POE 1's shortcomings cannot be fixed short of making an entirely different and better game, which they did.Nerfs are based, Jonathan is based, PoE1 should continue development only to be a playpen for fubgoon faggots, PoE2 needs to constantly keep yanking the chain on power creep, I hope the campaign is twice as long by Act 6 release and never gets shorter, and I love Path of Exile 2.
>>568122132we all are brown on the inside brother
>>568120442>>568120279why would I lie about playing hardcore? These are my only characters left in 0.4, the rest are dead because I either got lazy or bored. I'm not sure what you're trying to prove here.
>>568122076>>568122105My apologies anons I was retarded, you are taking 30% of the hits actual damage as delayed damage. So yeah, it's only about 9% mitigation. Not bad since it pretty much deletes dot damage, but still not as impressive.
chronosissies is this our league?
>>568122605too much bloat, too little changes, too little nerfs. Nerfed armour/Es LOL
HC SSF BTW
lads, I don't know what to leaguestart poo2 nor what I should trainI can't even be trusted with making a proper build that isn't shitgive me your best cookie cutter shit to play with, I don't want to follow some cuck streamer build
>>568122612who's we?
>>568122750basic attack smith of kitava
>>568122306i also agree with other anon that mahoako is very good but you need to be a special kind of person to appreciate it
>>568122660Its still extremly strong, you just need good recovery or get used to playing with temporal riftMany people would take 30% less DOT on its own
>>568122748hello fellow gigachad
>>568122750Ice shot deadeye
>>568122660Its still impressiveYou get 4 seconds to respond to hits that would otherwise be lethal, if it was 21% total hit mitigation it would be the most broken click in the entire game bar none
Im about finished with act 3 and im only level 24. I havent skiped any bosses or anything is this a bug or a machanic I dont know about. Im playing sorcoress.
>>568122862wouldnt the seperated hits also carry some minor synergy with recoup?
>>568122849I've never seen this one, I'll check it out. I must admit I'm not exactly the target audience but I've seen semi-yuri before. Like Lycoris Recoil (quite good actually) and Madoka (extremely good).Might also recommend the puppet kino known as Thunderbolt Fantasy
kinda hard to plan your build with this can only guesstimate how big this will be
>>568121584This doesn't work anymore. The only reason it did work is because Doedre's Undoing used to scale off of max mana, and they completely gutted that
>>568123065You’d need a lot of recoup to truly reach 30% DR with recoup alone but yes any form of recovery has synergy. The point of the node is lowering max hits, thats it, aslong as you got sufficient recovery you’re good
>>568123147we know how big the radius is, retard
>>568122862>>568122953>>568123065It does pair nicely with recoup but since it's not competing with your skill points it may be hard to invest in. Ultimately recoup is fucked in 2 because there's of lacking ES recoup and there isn't a high enough life pool for life recoup. Maybe a build focused around evasion and 50ish% MoM with life and mana recoup as defenses? Could even try pairing this with armor instead and armor mitigation recoup
>>568122837aryans
>>568123117>Might also recommend the puppet kino known as Thunderbolt FantasyFirst season was absolute cinema but now I don't know what they are even doing.
>>568123117first season of puppet show was awesome
>>568123319New ghost dance pairs pretty nicely if you went es eva ci chrono
>>568123319sacrosanctum, little guppette.
>>568123147>get this on a large time-lost jewelIt's practically the entire quadrant, the base radius on medium and large is already impressive
>>568123281https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/but this doesn't show the bigger radiusalso passive tree nodes might change positions
>>568123319I havent PoB’d id, only saw one PoB for the reverie chest, but if theres good flask nodes and they arent too costly to get you can easily go life with that node and just perma regen with flask
>>568120745>Anon you take 30% of the the 30% you mitigate.you press temp rift when you get hit and mitigate all of it or am i missing something?
>>568123596just use pob like a normal human being
>>568123604Running Reverie just to regenerate the Phased Form damage is fucking overkilljust run Footprints in the Sand or Convalescence you retarded chimps
only 7 months until all classes are added
I didnt play poe much, but you know what was my favorite moment? I was playing frost nova hiero and popped that jewel that gives you all unallocated nodes in radius in acolyte zone, getting all those nodes for free felt hella fucking good, especially when i realized it works with "allocated nodes grant lightning damage increase"There will never be feeling this good in poe2 because jonathan trivilizes bonuses from tree too much. Even 4s jewel is just "pop in anywhere and get free shit"
>>568123747>250 mb exeno thanks i wont install your virus
>>568123857retard
>>568123814Everyone will have to solve recovery, doesnt matter what type of build you’re playingIts not overkill phase form is exactly the node you want tons of recovery with
>>568123723No that's right but you need to take the 2 points after then
So is that phaze build a bait or legit? I don't want to play melee or spark again
So which part of the new endgame content is gonna have meaningful combat?
>>568123356Season 2 was also great. I must admit 3 and onwards it does get a bit sketchy in terms of writing but the payoff is consistently there, even if 4 is just setup for the movie which is a repurposed and shorter 5th season. Yes I am still mad about that, the fucking Han-Flu killed our kino
>>568124268lol
>>568124268gotta intentionally cripple your character and fight pinnacles with magic gear only
>>568123723Chronomancer before the "buff" could also use temporal rift to heal back up after getting hit.The only meaningful difference is now you're forced to spend 4 asc points for it instead of 2.
>>568122605holy mother of fucking based
>>568123604>>568123979>>568123814Problem with Reverie is that all the flask nodes that are good are on the other side of the tree, so you're kind of settling for a bad chest just for some recovery that might be easier solved in other ways
>>568124197Phaze makes builds that are good builds, better than what most people come up with, but not top tier builds, but he pretends like they're top tier builds
>>568124268all the endgame pinnacles will have bullshit you have to dodge. Arbiter is one of the most obnoxious (and best) fights in the game.
>>568122605I FVARKIN KNEEL.
>>568123915You tech illiterate fuck.
>>568124186oh yeah im taking that with sands of time and agony >>568120541is it because you want agony and time freeze temp rift? i feel the same about snap it should just be added onto time freeze in one node and make the 4 point something more powerful that scales damage and is time themed maybe a dot?
>>568124268Sounds like lightning arbiter is gonna be some souls shit if you go for him immediately
>>568122605>hates poo1>still grinds 40/40 for some trash cosmetic shit absolute state of some of you retards itt
POOP GENERAL IS THE /b/ OF /vg/
>>568123723>>568124408Yes but also you get to pretend you have a 30% larger hitpool than you actually do. It's kind of nice if you're planning on facetanking big slams but you should never plan for that
>spending 4 ascendancy points on chronomancer for an extra instant life flaskchronosissies i....
>>568124268the #1 leaguestarter (twisters) is literally a 6 button buildwhat a weirdly out-of-touch post
>>568124487Yeah thats what i suspected, ive never played a top build so i dont know what the tree looks like there. Flasks are semi related to pathfinder so i suspected as much
>>568124782I cant wait for people to see how it performs on azmadi
man Ice strike fucking sucks against jamanra as hollow palmI guess you really have to do the swap to storm wave

>>568122605>I hope the campaign is twice as long by Act 6 release and never gets shorterthis won't happen, but if they feel like it GGG can always add poe2 ruthless mode and people will play it.
2 GAMES1 ENDGAME0 REASON TO PLAY IT OVER DIABLO 4
>>568124782I said endgame, not campaign
>>568124993Many are saying this
>>568124268the part that was reworked
>>568124619yeah right now i get time freeze and temp rift with 4 pointsif i want them both after the patch it will cost all 8and what good is a chronomancer without the epic time freezing?
>>568124993tourists fuck off
>>568124970I would play ruthless between poe2 leagues if they went that route over whatever other slop I play
twister mfs be like you ever punish yourself
>>568125089You think multiple bosses in ritual is gonna be meaningful combat?
>>568124885I had to get 5.3k evasion and over 1.5k life to get past him in the stallathon league. it was fucking hilarious. ward and EV buffs will probably help though unless GGG are simply turning up monster damage and accuracy to compensate.
>>568124797Flask nodes are pretty much ranger and like 30% of them monk or merc yeah. Absolutely none on Druid. On the other hand though Ranger has nothing for recoup. Druid's lack of anything actually effective for recovery is another problem in itself. All the health regen nodes suck because they're based off of miniscule %max life
>>568125218doing quests is meaningful because you are progressing a quest towards the completion of the quest
>>568120745>Anon you take 30% of the the 30% you mitigatemitigating max hit is what matters 99% of the time, builds can have enough recovery/recoup/regen/leech/etc that taking 30% of a hit a few seconds later is irrelevant, what matters is that this means if before a 10k hit would one shot you now you can live because it's only 7k damage.90% of the things that kill you are one-shots or ground effects. If your build can solve for those two you're golden and just need to worry about shotgunning, but there's very little shotgunning from monsters in 2 vs 1
>>568125147Time freeze is literal larp node And im glad GGG didnt bend the knee to these ”chrono mains” who would have perpetually kept the ascendancy in shit territory forever because time freeze is so heckin cool bro
Why didn't PoE2 just steal Lost Ark's combatIt succeeds at everything this game tries to do
>>568125148PoO2 is dead, sister
>>568125314>progressing quest>meaningful combat>combatyou know what combat is?
>>568125036idk if there is a less button-intensive build for huntress. plus twisters are inherently visionary because you want to bounce them off walls. obviously with enough damage anything is possible but people are going to go straight to pinnacles and ubers with their 6 buttons if they can.
>>568125239I play huntress alot and azmadi is just scary every single time, the buffs will help a bit for sure but he isn't freeThe trick is to use attrition in p1, let it stack and push him in a burst
>>568125365I'm waiting for someone to copy LA and they just won't do itIt's so good aside from the awful Star Citizen levels of monetization
>>568124683i don't see much porn here
>>568125147>and what good is a chronomancer without the epic time freezing?i get that, hopefully they change it to the 2 point node, at least the agony change looks kino with a clock above the head and extra thing on the hp bar its why im going for the ascendancy with temp rift
This community is so fucking gay. We're getting a PoE2 tier atlas, 5 leagues worth of content, new ascensions and reworks, fuckload of new crafting and items... any people are still crying.
>>568125365>Why didn't PoE2 just [do literally anything right]
>>568125218maven brawls weren't very meaningful in poe1 either, very much running in a circle gameplay.
what is the point of copy pasting comments you found off leddit
>>568125338>And im glad GGG didnt bend the knee to these ”chrono mains” who would have perpetually kept the ascendancy in shit territoryIt will probably still be 0.X% of all players I even predict it will be last place this league
>>568124268Got your meaningful combat right here.
>>568125556those posts arent actual people, its bots
>>568125457im gonna play a druid again and i will oneshot every boss and pinnacle in the game in 3 seconds with oil barrage again, why is ggg so incompetent?
>>568125365idk why but I wish someone would.everything about that game's combat was 10/10 while all the MMO shit and monetization was pure ass and 0/10a singleplayer game with actual RPG itemization and gearing and not kmmo pay2win treadmill and Lost Ark's combat would be amazing

damn act 4 was really fun they need to rework 3 asap
>>568125639Secret chalupa ascendancy...
>>568125556Literally just ignore the doomers. They are loosing that weird culture war that they started.
>>568125556First time? People keep crying wolf, so GGG just ignores it.
>>568125556This game still has a lot of people who haven't even realized they hate PoE as a game, maybe as a genre as a whole.It's just the most popular game so they force themselves to play it, on account of being addicted to videogames, and then do nothing but seethe about it.
>>568124970With Act 6 taking so long I hope it's at least proper act size. I know they've been wanting to expand act 1 also (and maybe act 2 though) but I'd prefer if 6 was more than just a boss rush
>>568125534agony is tricky too since it only tracks hit damage and not dots so for my chaos build it was entirely uselessdepends on what you want to play yeah but it looks cool now
>>568125860Did they actually say this is a thing or did people meme themselves into believing it?
>>568125856acts 1, 2, and 4 are all good and varied.I dread act 3 literally every time. The jungle sucks. The vaal suck. The time travel gateway backtracking sucks. Venom crypts suck. Drowned city sucks. Apex of filth extra sucks. Doryani is a worse and more boring and easy boss than Geonor or Jaman Ra.
doomsissy streamers are the only reason why 0.4 ended up being goodget on your knees and thank them for all their hard work
>>568125856They areAct 3 should be a lot more fun with the touchups its receiving in 0.5
>>568125969Act 6 will be a boss rush pretty much Jonathan said its about half the size of other acts
>>568125302Looking at the Druid's tree, it's honestly just bad.>Armor and ES recovery have counter synergy>Life Regen Rate is pitiful compared to life recovery rate (applies to everything)>regen and recoup don't really do much and aren't very available>witch nodes are spells>warrior nodes are attacksGenuinely a what the fuck are they thinking-tier character
>>568124993>Prefers the game where you can hack items in the client with no external software because it's so poorly developed
>>568125650lmao if you think thats meaningful combat youre dumb.It just forces players into very defensive builds, making the game way less fun. Player deaths are always some bullshit and never failure to do "meaningful combat"
>>568125690>why is ggg so incompetent?maybe they want to make sure some people still play druid to test the ES/AR changes? is that this league?
>>568125860>>568126065I hope every class has a secret one eventually. But given that this is an Expedition league maybe a secret runic smith of kitava would make sense?
>>568125856Act 1 is the only good act Act 2 is dogshitAct 3 is irredeemableAct 4 is dogshit and only exists because they needed to jew out some money from the NZ government for "promoting maori culture"
>>568126065Jonathan confirmed it in an interview with Chris, its probably going to be related to beating xesht or breach at the leastNot sure about leaving the chayula ascendancy as shitty as it is just because it has a secret one, lich isnt like that
the karuis did nothing wrong
>>568125302>>568126151I already said it once and im pretty sure it was to you but the keystones are just garbage i cant believe they didnt even buff them slightly after seeing how poorly ES/Armour performed>no keystone should be mandatory for defensesYet basically every single ES build goes CI and that was grandfathered in
>>568125958Yeah, man. I 100% agree with you. When 0.1 took off it went to hard for its own good, and a whole bunch of peak normalfags got roped into the hype. These people genuinely have to business playing an autism sim like PoE, but they are too stupid to comprehend that.
>>568126230lol. Youre not testing any kind of defense if you avoid having to do mechanics. You just kill before you get killed. There are no ES/AR changes, just minor armour buff and ES giga nerf
>>568125856the core story, art and atmosphere are 10/10 for all four "real" acts, all they need to do is fix the pacing.

I'm genuinely happy that people are finally pushing back on all the cringe doomerism. I don't think PoE2 is perfect, but I still want to be able to discuss it without every 2nd post being "POO2 POO SHIT FART POOP".

Anyone who complains about the campaign should have their poe accounts deletedThey're the ones who have fucked the game up post 0.1 when it was BASED KINO

I still have no idea what the exact story of this game is because I skip every text box

>>568126580if it were up to me, the Apex Of Filth would be a massive spiral again. ;___;
>>568126763unironically though i miss walls where you have to farm a bitpoe1 used to have that and now you dont even do BA
i dont know what my starter will be
>>568126919BASED
>>568126961same (I'm baiting)
>>568126736holy fuck this is one of my favorite frog pics and i never even knew there was a full version also agree with you
>>568113150warrior
>>568127008gonna go with charmander
>>568126919It's ok. The main plot is total ass any way. All the interesting shit is the worldbuilding around it which you experience just by playing
>>568126432>cant graveyard zerg itanon six portals defensive layer is a poe1 thingin poo2 all the meta builds also never die because maps are lmao 1 portal so you're mega punished for losing a juiced map you spent multiple divines worth of tablets on; the builds doing 5 million dps are also facetanking arbiter. There is no equivalent to like poe1 ward stacking assassins doing a billion dps with cobra lash while having 2k ehp because there's no ubers to farm to make it worthThe average poe2 meta build is set up like an endgame breach/legion/ritual build in poe1 because those are the mechanics similar to it that have been ported, you need to survive a billion random projectiles and ground effects while also full screen clearing hundreds of monsters randomly spawning around you. Defense isn't an absolute premium like Grueling Gauntlet or Deep Delve poe1 builds designed to facetank EVERYTHING and never die ever, but they're also not zero hp full dps pinnacle farming setups designed to kill bosses during their spawn animation and nothing else
>>568126919If it makes you feel better nothing that happens in campaign actually mattersAnd I mean actually. Nothing of substance actually happens.
>>568126904so you're playing ES/AR Wyvern then?
>>568127112bro
why do people say chonk is badpurple flames are insane and go with multiple buildsdouble chaos resist + 10% max chaos resist is actually crazy as a node alone toofinally free spirit amulets will actually make darkness an insane choice for survivability, only thing that sucks is that you can't take enhanced darkness + double chaos resist + enhanced flames, you have to drop something, probably the chaos resist node but STILL that's an easy 2k barrier that regens on its own in addition to the crazy amount of gain% that flames offer
>>568126919i started paying more attention after the time travel
>>568122605My knees shattered. I'm forever kneeling.
>>568127123>The main plot is total ass any way.I'd agree except almost all other videogame stories are much worse. act 2 is kind of a bust the way it attempts to introduce a whole separate side-conflict that doesn't initially feel relevant to the main plot.
>>568127184Only retards say chayula is bad its been buffed enoughI dont think you take darkness ever though even with the new amulets
>>568127125The hardest possible maps are 1 portal. Most normally juiced yellows usually allow 2 or 3. Your average Fubgun mapper still dies 30-50 times in the first week, and your average SC player map blasting is never, ever investing into anything but some evasion or energy shield on the tree.They survive pinnacles by waiting 3 weeks and then buying the gear needed to instaphase it. They're barely playing the game at that point.
I have a strong feeling that the spell totem mana stacker build palstron is cooking up is going to be fucking busted. There are so many interlocking mechanics here.
>>568122605>POE2 is better in every single way that matters.what ways matter
>>568127184>double chaos resist + 10% max chaos resist is actually crazy as a node alone tooit's really good but Chaos Inoculation is even more overpowered in poe2 than it is in poe1 and Energy Shield is already the best defense by far so 90% max chaos res for 2 ascendancy points looks bad vs 100% for 1 passive point
>>568127184Its boring as shit even if they buffed it enough
>>568124268Who gives a shit? All that matters is the campaign.
>>568127184people assess everything relative to whatever they're told the meta is, which has never been monk until this league let alone the least played monk ascendency.
So tactician galvanic shardOr minion witch? never played witch or minion
They should delete endgame and just have campaign 3 times since it's the best ever made
>>568126432>>you got taken to fucking school bitch nigger. you never wanted a harder game.youre a mindless drone that cant think of anything other than your free2play clicker brokeboy.Hardcore is just boring and more grindy, its not fun and is more build limiting. People who want meaningful combat dont necessarily want to play 1000 hours and get kicked in the balls. They dont want your hardcore challenge, they just want more fun and engaging combat which game is lacking.Your argument is so childish, you might as well say "oh you dont want to play naked and find in magic gear? Guess you dont want harder game lol".I rather fight a boss 100 times in a souls game than play hardcore in an arpg, its retarded. Its a mode for streamers and people with small wieners.
>>568122605>Jonathan is basedYour idol got raped live on stream after 0.2 by notorious gay niggerfaggot Zizarian. He bends the knee every patch.You lost.
>>568127337>The hardest possible maps are 1 portal. Most normally juiced yellows usually allow 2 or 3.nobody does 3 portal maps because quantity, rarity, and monster effectiveness are exponential scalars that multiply with each other in greater and greater amounts the more you have. It's the same reason rushing arbiter for more tablet modifiers is non-optional, it's not just 15 to 20% more loot it's like 2x as much to fully juice a map
Whats the league mechanic for 0.5?
>>568127427yea that's why you go enhanced flames into chaos resist node then respec CI + darkness after 4th lab so you get the best of both worlds
>>568127337nta but GGG are right not to even bother balancing the game for that level of gear, at least not until literally everything else is finished. so many arpg players don't even want gameplay and the people who do can just reroll and speedrun back up to t15s on a fresh character.
>>568127184 How Acolyte of Chayula's Darkness actually works: Each hit or dot tick you take becomes a unique darkness reservation instance for that amount of damage taken. Every darkness reservation instance falls off on its own 5-second timer. Because of how these reservation instances work, Darkness effectively regens itself in combat. It allows you to absorb ~2000 damage taken over any 5-second rolling window before life or es or MoM are touched at all. Energy shield recharge can start while darkness is absorbing damage. In any situation where you have darkness available but your es is damaged, es recharge will start and not be interrupted as long as darkness is taking the damage. Which can happen really often. For taking large hits, clearly the popular alternative to darkness is high es, with or without ci. However es recharge delay was heavily nerfed in 0.5, giving darkness a relative buff since it regens in combat. EDIT: as others said, in 0.5, the new absent amulet base type can allows one spirit buff that uses no spirit. So chonks can have a single spirit skill. The 100-spirit buffs like CoC or trinity will be chase items, but lower spirit ones might be cheap.So why did GGG make darkness such a huge investment?Because darkness gives you ~2000 extra life that regens in combat, lets you recharge es while taking damage, and stacks directly on top of life+es+MoM+runic ward.
>>568126743>the game doesnt need to be balanced or have engaging gameplay as long as we have hardcore!impossible levels of out of touch stupidity.
>>568127575>Hardcore is just boring and more grindy, its not fun and is more build limiting.>People who want meaningful combat dont necessarily want to play 1000 hours and get kicked in the balls. They dont want your hardcore challenge, they just want more fun and engaging combat which game is lacking.So in other words, it slows you down and forces you to actually learn what mob mods do?It makes the combat more...meaningful?
>>568127582>Ziz raped and gaped Jonatron live on stream while Mark streamed for BFRMany rememember that day. It was glorious
>>568127184the thing is i dont want to play a pacman minigame picking up flames on every map

Total SCnigger melty LMAO>The game is too easy and zoomy but I REFUSE to play the game mode that slows me down
>>568127456it was good when darkness soaked honor damage making chalupa the undisputed best sanctum farmer and able to reliably farm temporalisof course a 0.1% playrate ascendancy having a good niche in the economy is unacceptable to ggg so they immediately nerfed it to not work. Same thing happened with Sorcery Ward, it prevents honor loss entirely but they coded it to still fail you on no-hit despite taking zero honor damage after it was reworked.
>>568127443So there is literally no reason to play 0.5? No new acts.
>>568127858When Ziz said this - my jaw dropped
how do you even target farm in 0.5?
>>568128020very carefully

I can't wait for the poe1jeet meltdown when poe2 is 260gb on 1.0 launch and they can't even install it KEK
>>568127884you don't need to you get so much radius that flames automatically are picked up when they're on your screen
>>568127731gonna go ahead and translate this real quick:Hardcore has balanced and engaging gameplay that you don't want to interact with because the truth is you rely on killing shit with bow/spellnigger meta builds and trade, so in the absence of those things, any elitism you have vanishes and you have to confront the fact that you're garbage.

I don't think any future twitch drop will outshine the Atziri well or Vaal stash
>>568126736I completely agree with you but six-month leagues are not healthy for the community at all. I really hope that after the release we’ll go back to a three-month gap between leagues even if each league gets less content on its own.
>>568127741>It makes the combat more...meaningful?The game is fundamentally not designed for combat to be meaningful anymore, even glazing content creators basically say "meaningful combat" is now dead and buried after this patch. It needs to be more meaningful and engaging by default, like it is in campaign.
I hate that I can't wait to play poe2

Nice build. We're nerfing it 30 minutes before league launch.
>>568128246temporalis runs give you max honor of 1 so it wouldnt matterI havent played chalupa since the rework but I assume its like sorc ward where you don't get increased max honor from it but it simply prevents all honor loss until you run out of darkness/ward, so sekhema is braindead and you can facetank everything taking no honor damage

>>568128171>Hardcore has balanced and engaging gameplayObjectively false. It does not have balanced or engaging gameplay. Do you even play hardcore or youre just trolling?The game is designed around softcore and its designed around trading. So why is the combat not meaningful with those things? Its not designed around hardcore or SSF. Its not my job to make the game have more engaging combat. I shouldnt need to gimp myself to have fun. There are plenty of games where you dont need to, youd know that if you werent a brokeboy glazer

Where do these niggas even come from?>The game needs to be just as slow at the end as when it starts Like, what? I'm an old fuck and I cannot recall a single game I played from the early 90s to 20fucking26 where the progression worked like that. Even the oldest, archaic, inaccessible, esoteric-UI laden, pen-and-paper inspired RPGs involved scaling from a nobody into a fucking God. Its fucking fundamental to gaming as a medium. I don't get it. I just don't.
>>568128835>its designed around tradingnah you can do all content in ssf, it clearly accounts for both.
When people talking about their campaign time are they only including act 4 or also the interludes?

>>568128857The thirdies will, but they've been shitting up the forums and threads for a while now, knowing path of shit 1 is garbage.
Mark said 4 passive voices will be 5 mirror territoryThis never happened before poe 2. Yes there were items worth a mirror but rarely much more than that. Then they released shrine belt which was the first real PoE 1 item that goes for several mirrors with good rollsI dont like this direction of the game its just incentivizing more and more RMT
post merc starters fo 0.5 pliss
>>568129120They should be including interludes, but lots of people exaggerate their times, and the races that Ggg hosted only went through act 4 so some times people talk about those
>>568129071john reddit aura farming in fub comment section
>>568128470Ritual but also probably Atlas masters or Atlas tree nodes that change how many uniques drop (vs other stuff).
The acts should only take you 20 mins each on launch, get gud
>>568129229can every uniques besides pinnacle boss uniques drop from all mechanics?
>>568129178i play ssf
>>568128835>Its not designed around hardcore or SSF. People have parroted this since early PoE1 because Chris Niggerson said it and it still isn't true.They nerf builds that are ONLY viable in HC. They do it all the fucking time. They arguably did it MORE often than they did it to SC builds. They only host events and bosskill races in HC. SC is a joke. Its always been a joke. It always WILL be a joke. When they have a SINGLE, actually important, non-gimmick-race event in SC, I will capitulate to the point that they 'don't balance around HC'. Until then, its a fucking laughable lie, and it has been for over a decade.If the game is too easy, play HC. If you don't, you're fucking coping.
>>568129178ssfbtwchase items, for something like voices which is just numerical buffs and not fundamental changes to gameplay, are good
>>568129348k post your gauntlet clear lol
>>568128904that's already 5 buttons retardbut you forgot Thunderous Leap, War Banner and Parry (free 50% more damage no reason not to use it vs many bosses)vs some bosses I'm going to swap in Explosive Spear because they stand still for really long periods of time and will take full burning ground damage.
What are we thinking?
>>568129049>You can do itdumbass , being able to do it doesnt mean its designed around it. The whole loot system would be different if it was designed around SSF. There would be smart loot and there would be less clutter and trash everywhere, the loot wouldnt be intentionally diluted to keep value of items high on market.
>>568129495trash
>>568129348>They nerf builds that are ONLY viable in HC. They do it all the fucking time. They arguably did it MORE often than they did it to SC builds. They only host events and bosskill races in HC.this is like saying they "Balance around Ruthless" because they nerfed Guardian specifically in Ruthless because even with poverty gear and no skill gems you can faceroll to red maps with sentinel and ele relics.one intern at GGG nerfing something doesnt mean the entire game is balanced around it
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nxi7gQQD7t4is this the REAL dan or an ai shit channel
>>568129425If I was home, i'd post my Demis, but that still doesn't address the fact that you think the game is too easy and won't play hard mode. 100% on you.
>>568129178>incentivizing more and more RMThaha whoops ;^D
>>568129178You should always have aspirational items in a game all about getting items even to the most insane pricing items should exist it just adds more layers to the amount of hours you can play each league its kino they should add something more expensive than voices i hope mageblood has a expensive variant like that for poe2

>>568129337some can only drop in specific types of league content. look em up on the wiki it will usually say.
>>568129636theres really 25k people practicing poe2 right now? thats a lot
>>568126338>CI mandatoryYeah this is sort of a problem I've thought about in general, it's fine for keystones to apparently be important to defenses in 1 since ghost shrouds, Zealot's, the no stun keystone, or CI is mandatory for certain builds, but apparently in 2 for some reason only CI is allowed to be mandatory. This really pushes the game further into blue life good red life bad. I just can't rap my head around the retarded decision to base life regen around %health when %health is at the most like a third of what it is in 1, and 1 has enormous amounts of regen available everywhere. Even more retarded I think, Werewolf has a leech node but Druid has no leech available nearby except for that, but leech is part of health recovery and not regen. Meanwhile Merc has maybe the fattest recovery node (40%) in the game, which applies to>regen>recoup>flask>leech>instant health gainIt's fucking absurd. And all those nodes too>recover 5% of max health per second if hit recentlySure, but why would I ever want to get hit? And why is it so far away? Even more baffling is that they want you to try out this hybrid spellcaster/transformation playstyle, but>spells do not combo (except volcano) with transformation abilities>you squishier in every way when you're not transformed>the hybrid nodes are about equivalent to the same level of node from other trees but come with conditionals like if spell cast recently or if transformed recentlyIt's kind of sad to see transformations go from>You can use any of (x) melee skill while transformedTo these pre-made combination skills that only really come together on the bear. Just frankly not a very good character from a game design perspective. Great animation work sure, and individual skills are fun, but it's mind boggling to go from Monk, Huntress, and Ranger's design to Druid
>>568129604>this is like saying they "Balance around Ruthless" because they nerfed Guardian specifically in Ruthless because even with poverty gear and no skill gems you can faceroll to red maps with sentinel and ele relics.But that IS balancing around ruthless. If they truly didn't give a fuck, if they TRULY don't care about balance in it, why touch it at all? This is nothing to say about the fact that they have done far, far, FAR, far, far, far, FARFARFAR more than balance one fucking class in Ruthless and you know it. They've done more ascendancy passes in Ruthless than in the base fucking game. And if one intern can do that, why can't they do it for the normal game?Nothing about this makes GGG look competent.
FUCKING KEK
>>568129178that's nothing

>>568129863>if one intern can do that, why can't they do it for the normal game?larger, more fragile audience = more consequences for fucking up. plus its been very obvious in poe2 that they've been running experiments and re-examining the core mechanics of the game (e.g. Evasion) in order to fix a bunch of underlying problems before 1.0. can't just keep changing stuff if you're trying to rework a bunch of fundamentals at the same time.

SCucks real quiet after this one...
>>568130374
>>568130124Give an example pleaseSome leagues an item can go up to several mirrors (like original sin this league) but usually its around one mirror. Same with the purity of fire sublimeGenerally the only multi mirror items are mirror items that others service. In PoE 2 its far more widespread, especially when it comes to the sanctification system and over divine system (which they foolishly introduced to PoE 1 aswell)
>>568130268yes its to shape the different ways it scales to give the skill a unique identity.
>>568130015ggg has literally said the loot drops are balanced around trade, youre ignorant.If it was designed around SSF it would never be in such dogshit state, there wouldnt be clutter and cancer on the screen. There wouldnt be bottom tier affixes and bottom tier bases in the endgame. Those exist only to make good items more valuable on trade and therefore more difficult to get. If it was designed around SSF youd actually have much much easier time to find upgrades from ground loot and much easier time to craft upgrades. This is not an opinion but an obvious fact.
>>568130423Is this a poe1 boss he's talking about? Can't think of anything like that for 2
>>568130136Man this format is rather cringe and unoriginal, but I guess that's the PoE2 content cycle.
Post your ranged starter build for 0.5
>>568129448You don't parry on twisters, you have scepter and an empty hand on the other weapon set.It's a 2.5 button build most of the time: hold lmb for ws, rmb to release twisters, mmb for ice tipped once per 4 casts. You only use barrage on bosses and especially tanky rares. Maybe endgame twister builds use barrage on every cast, but they drop ice tipped arrows by that time (and no one used war banner before)
>>568130373You can't convince me they're afraid of fucking up after the Archnem ---> Exped ----> Kalandra debacle. Chris, Jonathan, Rory, and Neon were more than willing to shove god awful shit that any sane person could have seen being catastrophic through.Its even likely that Rory and Chris finally quit because the rest of the team finally told them they were being insane when they decided to take an axe to support gems, and subsequently every build, instead of just nerfing the builds that get 10m dps on SSF gear instead of killing everyone for the sins of 5 skills.
for today i'm replaying sekiro on hard again (with 2b's ass ofc)

>>568130758>people who ssf want the same loot that drops in the base game,Not true. But this is also why SSF is unpopular because its a bad experience, it becomes a challenge mode for hardcore players. But a system designed around SSF would be actually much more casual friendly and not hardcore at all - and therefore would be much more popular than ssf is right now.Youre so out of touch and ignorant its funny.
>>568130707>shit no else even remembers
>>568130793Armour*
Wish Mountains Teachings scaled off of max ES even if it gave less DR.
>>568130758SSF at minimum deserves higher drop rates for low % uniques or currency. There's basically nothing you can do to farm the flesh and flame jewels for your ascendancy, and you're more less rather limited on uber bossing because you can't buy fragments. Ultimately SSF chads will play past this until they get to some ridiculous state anyway but it's extremely annoying doing 10 billion pinnacle bosses for a specific drop. HCSSF or race gameplay I think it's fair to keep drops the way they are

>>568130912I mean, whatever makes you happy>Guy That Dies was also using the empty-offhand keystone a lot. there is no "official correct" version of huntress, she's very flexible.It's not also, it's part of the setup - one of your swaps is max aspd spear and an empty hand. You can't weapon swap keystones

>>568130701You can certainly parry on twisters, I have done it plenty and it is strongParry is underestimated, you parry an enemy and it takes 50% more damage for a burst window, the issue is setting your damage up in said window
>>568119550This could literally be the case for minions.But I'm pretty sure every single build uses heavy swing, heft, and brutality because that's like 3 of the 8 support gems that you're actually ALLOWED to use on minions.Most of them are tagged explicitly for "does not modify the skills of minions" or some such gate.Once again GGG is too scared of letting players have fun to implement their own philosophy.
>>568131335>it's not alsoI meant he wasn't only using one "correct" build. because there is no one build. I was mucking around testing huntress before the reveal of a new ascendency for her, I even tried cull the weak and might find a use for that as its gotten massively buffed.
>>568131335What you are talking about is just the typical dwd weaponswap twister setup, there are more ways to play twister but thats the most popular for sureYou dont have to using whirling slash you can just whirlwind lance and twisters are even stronger

Do i understand correctly, that when we will get some way to protect energy shield this item will become op?
>>568132180like Mark said, 50% deflect is about the most its currently efficient to get. they're changing it so getting near to the 95% cap is actually realistic. the way its supposed to work is that the specialist suffix for your defense type should always be nice to have on gear if you're res-capped.
>>568132364No
>>568132253retard
yea they balance the game around the mode that like 3% of the playerbase plays
>>568131986saaar you are stop using of the GPT of chat, and learn the word, rright
>>568132180>Armor provides double the evasion if evasion is working>One of few armors in the game that actually provide damageIt's almost like it's actually good?
MA is definitely not meant for mapsIt's designed to be flashy and get people in for the 48 hour launch window concurrent player countWhether it's actually playable past campaign doesn't matter
>>568132431Why not? It will literally double your armorinb4:>armorYeah, its actually op at degen numbers
>>568132253>I want to play SSF>just change it like this, this and this you fucking LOSERS>I'm super cool btwerrr based
the totems are gonna get nerfed or changed, right? it's either they're gonna add a mana cost or make archmage not work on it. it's too good otherwise.
>>568132364chalupa darkness or sorcery ward could do that
>>568132524retard
>>568132364Double Armor isn't that great and how are you going to get energy shield bypass? There's only like 30% in the game
>>568132536Armor and Energy Shield do not work together, you will get your Energy Shield depleted no matter what and with the nerf to faster start of energy shield recharge you are going to have 0 ES after its depleted
>>568132180current formula for deflect is bad, thats why they are changing it in 0.5It is stupid good when you have like 1 modifier that gives ~40% but stupid to invest more.
>>568132364the problem is instead of using a body armor to conditionally double your armor, you could just wear an ACTUAL high-armor body and double it or more with no conditions. 296-370 armor on body armor is useless
>>568132593they'll probably just bugfix arc and the other bug that made totems do a trillion damage.
oh that got them seething
>>568132690zealots oath, lil gup
>>568132486i dont think losing your entire defense on hit for 10% damage is worth but thats just me
>>568132536But how are you going to protect your energy shield? The only damage that goes over it is Sorc Ward (nullifying your bonus) and Darkness (playing Ch*nk). Maybe there's some tech you can rock with hybrid armor/es lich for the 15% bypass or Atziri's but this seems like overinvestment
>>568132364Body armour gives about half your flat defensesSo you’re sacrificing a bit less than half your flat armour to get double effectiveness of armour with some wacky conditional. Only way this thing becomes OP is if there ever comes easier ways to get flat armour
>>568132667>>568132690Please read my post again>when we will get some way to protect energy shieldfor example: Keystone from poe1 that makes your ES protect your mana insteadSome bullshit new keystone akin to "your ES doesnt change until your life drops to 1"Perhaps reverse leech node ascendancy
>>5681325362x a low number is a slightly less low numberarmour needs high numbers
>>568131596Id wager monk will be ok but plant will be ass and ice shot well fubgun is playing it so expect shit to be expensive as fuck

Brokies in chat rn
>>568132835Where are you going to get the type of excess life recovery to keep up uptime? Shavronne's already does that for flasks and unless you have a crazy leech build you're not doing much there. You can maybe get yourself some es leech with the sanguinis gloves but overall you're jumping through hoops to get value out of a pretty mediocre unique, just like the Reverie flask setup
>>568132424what are they doing to deflect? I missed it
>>568132924>When we will get some way to protect energy shieldWe won't, more than likely. EB works to convert ES to Mana and because of Lich's retarded health node GGG will be extra mindful of how many ways to protect energy shield there will be in the game. If the keystone where all damage bypasses ES makes it into 2, Lich will have to be reworked because that keystone would be tantamount to 100% DR
>>568132180have you actually seen how atrocious the deflect formula is
i will post a thousand terrible bait builds in /poeg/ and hype them up as the best thing since sliced bread and there is literally nothing you can do to stop me
>>568133507No mitigation can ever be more than 90% pretty sure they hardcode that stuff in
>>568133505worse if you have low deflect rating, better if you have more.
>/poeg/ complaining>reddit complaining>forums complainingIs it really that bad? Give me 3 or more fair reasons to criticize PoE2 in its current state. Also as a bonus give examples of how to improve the game.

>>568133505basically what i said the algorithm used to flatten out at like 75% or something, but they moved it up
>>568133507>If the keystone where all damage bypasses ES makes it into 2, Lich will have to be reworked because that keystone would be tantamount to 100% DRYeah, ngl didnt think about lich becoming immortal with my ideas. ES protection is still possible as ascendancy for other class thou hierophant for example :^)
>>568133656The node reads exactly as>Your life cannot change while affected by energy shieldPerhaps they could pull some mental gymnastics to say that grabbing a node like this will cause you to be "unaffected" by energy shield, but I still find this unlikely. It's not real damage resist, it's more like damage nullification>>568133710Don't you have better things to do Mark?
>>568133561all i see is how little people invest into their defenses and then call everything bad.its like the retards getting 10k armor and spewing ARMOR BAD everywhere
>>568133841Well we know all/most of that will be in the game eventually. Is the issue that GGG is taking too long?
I'm gonna play boneshatter
>>568133970the issue is drip feeding us from 0.1 to 0.5 then telling us we're not getting anymore cake and have to look for crumbs for the next 6+ months
>>568119009>self-reporting
>>568133969that'll easily be at the cap in 0.5. if a player has capped evasion and deflect they're only going to take 1 in 400 hits at full damage.should feel very safe.
>Realize the new vaal pact allows you to use life flasks>excitedly check out Olroth's>realize the specific wording of Olroth's and Vaal Pact means that Olroth's will genuinely not work and Olroth's specific statement on life recovery means that you cannot cheese it with Azmeri Brew0 fun allowed. At least the rage flask everyone uses will function
>>568133710It's the problem with waiting 3 weeks between the announcement and the actual launch.People, i.e retards, draw their own conclusions about things they know very little about and make up scenarios to get upset about in their heads.
>>568133741correct, which is why you get a layer of ES to buffer the 0.5% chance to take actual damage.going pure evasion is foolish right now because we dont have a billion options for defensive layers like poe1.
remember when this general morphed from endless shilling-for-rupees to begging-for-codes and crying about $30 on 0.1 launch day? I sure do lol
Not one thing Connor has said about Poop 2 has ever been proven incorrect.
>>568133969This much deflect is unrealistic if you want good damage. Also, like with EV, this is pretty much ignoring that it's dependent on monster accuracy and is a rating and not a fixed amount. You will foolishly believe yourself to have 88% deflect and then it'll fail and instakill you because the monster had like 20% more accuracy than expected. As an aside, I've made an armor character with 25k and above armor and honestly it's still not very good
>>568116035redo of a healer
You retards can't understand, we warriors want the challenge, we want the game harder and harder, we can sustain ludicrous nerfs and nonsense balance, just look at forum and reddit crying on touching a little of Pathfinder/Deadeye builds, you guys would not be able to live in the world of BOTTOM TREE STRENGTH ENJOYERS.
>>568134227we're a kalltorak board sister
>>568134227He said poe 1 is better
>>568134227the meleefag clip was his biggest trvke ever
Is Hallow Palm Technique the kind of thing you can grab in the campaign and just use to maps? Or do you really need to get a decent set of EV/ES gear before it is viable? In PoE1 Hollow Palm is different, but essentially even with campaign gear it is a significant DPS increase in early acts.I want to do a full on Hollow Palm build, so I am not sure when I should actually switch over. It makes damage scale from gem levels, is there enough damage on the low level gems?
>>568134459he's right
>>568134206The funniest shit is that I stole a code from a third worlder probably, I just randomly entered the thread and someone had dumped their cd-keys, saved me 30 dolars I guess, that I decided to spent on divines on 3.27 launch.
>>568134315>5 deflect nodes>unrealisticuhh self-report?

Genuine question: why are content creators still shilling Deadeye for Ice shot so much?Like, I would understand it in 0.2, but now you have half of her tailwind on a single node (unless you cannot live without that +10ms). Additional arrows are now added to quivers, and it's not like it makes a huge difference if you have 6 or 7 arrows in the late game. The same goes for 60 / 70 movement speed.Far shot / Point blank gives 20% more damage with conditions. Idk why would you want even more damage, but Amazon gives you the same +20% more without conditions if you sum up all the open weakness parts. And +Phys, and +Leech, and skill speed from her small passives
half the game is going to ragequit from martial falling over at maps and twister being torture to play for more than 10 minutes
>>568134635>RMTingThat makes you an honorary third worlder.
>>568129020Chris Wilson was right. Don't take advice from anyone. People are fucking retarded goycattle who lie about what they want. Just do your thing and the people will come.
>>568134315ggg don't want us to be 100% safe. hence the ES nerf, which will probably cause a lot of whining until people get used to it.
Fun fact of the dayPoE 2 has never had a league with lower peak player numbers than PoE 1s highest peak player count
>>568134667And how much evasion do you have?

>>568134817it's alright there will always be 1 button shit for the playerbase to reach maps at half the speed with.
>>568134947tri is a psyop paid to cause cultural disorder within the fanbase
>>568134621its good if you can rush it; I do before executioner and I usually have no problems killing anything from there on outthe secret is +1 melee skills on gloves ASAP, basically puts you an entire 3-4 levels of "expected" damage per levelyou can also roll it on amulet, kind of rare but if you have both you become insane, especially with damage rolled rings the ev/es scaling isnt something you can kind of avoid, but you get enough on the tree and the gear slowly ramps it up
>>568129178Yeah I boughted accel/resistance for 50 mirrors and even if they leave them in the game next league it'll still be worth ~1,500-2000 mirrors in standard. People don't understand how much money flows through PoE accounts.
>>568134621from memory it's always good in campaign as long as you're still actually trying with the rest of your gear but once you're in maps it loses to a decently made quarterstaff

>>568133710>Give me 3 or more fair reasons to criticize PoE2 in its current state. Also as a bonus give examples of how to improve the game.1. too much bloat, they just adding shit, more things to click, more runes, more tabs, more things to parse, more things to filter out2. too much clutter, too many items dropping, loot quality is low3. combat is too easily trivialized, endgame is zoom zoom screen clear metas. There is no endgame content where youre rewarded for engaging combo gameplaySuggestions: 1. remove wisdom scrolls, regal shards and other trash from the loot table. Wisdom scroll should be a button with infinite uses in the UI, not an item. 2. lesser jewelers shouldnt drop either, you should be able to upgrade them, or maybe there's just one universal jewelers orb or something, support gem slots limited by skill gem level.3. Prune and streamline. remove item rarity affix from gear, remove accuracy rating (and missing entirely), 4. Increase base movement speed of all characters by 10%, reduce max movement speed on boots by 10%. No brainer balance change5. more content with beefy enemies instead of just many enemies, lower incoming damage. Make combo gameplay most rewarding

>>568136208in my mind the worst possible build you could run with Martial Artist is a build that attempts to make value of the 4-point Combo node just so you can uhhh ummmm run Culmination 2 support on slams with a offhand Rapid Assault spear to combobuild or somethingCombo 2-pointer, Combo 4-pointer, Way of the Mountain on a build without Freeze, and probably Hollow Form
>>568136401>if you don't give your data and money to elon musk you're underage actually kill yourself, dude
>>568136401my dad says as long as ppl don't use any bad words it's okay :)
>>568135684It's an officially GGG-approved combo build. You can't claim to like Poopy 2 and not like twisters. The problem with twisters at endgame before you get good gear is that most of your twisters will miss the boss and you'll ragequit at the boss DPS and whine that you were baited. This is what people have done ever since Snoobae (inventor of twisters) started pushing the build to players.Now that Fubcels and Jungcels are going to be playing twisters you will absolutely see 10 million posts about how it's poison tornado shot occultist all over again and that the build ruined the game for them. Fubgun and Jungroan will abandon the build and claim they never said it was good and that bad creators like Snoobae were the ones who told everyone to play it actually.
>>568136551Not helping your cause with that statement, see >>568136401
>>568136126Because having to Cull for charges feels like shit? Just play Ice Strike with Combat Frenzy, Armour Break/Endurance charge support and Aliths for automation
Can someone explain to me what the fuck the point of these nodes are?The two-pointer kinda makes sense, there's a build idea where you run Martial Adept with Delayed Gratification Support while wearing Prayers for Rain for consistent in-combat ES regen. The double combo gain will be cool for triple-bell oneshot builds. I don't think that's good, but it's at least something. Why the fuck would you ever take Martial Master? Four points of your ascendancy pissed away so you can run the just-okay combo spender supports.
Can't just run invocations for charges like normal people?
>>568136956I know exactly why, I tried to do a build with it in 0.3 but found out combo isn't retained between weaponsets
>>568135778cringe speedrunners will always optimize the fun and experimentation out of this gamedon't pollute your mind with their filth
>>568136845>Because having to Cull for charges feels like shit?BUFFED
>>568136531The 4 point combo is insane it literally resets your energy shield recharge. With heralds that means constant energy shield recharge uptime
>>568136401>only adults use twitterFucking lmfao.
Twisters shilling didn't happen.And if it did, they weren't that bad.And if they're that bad, that's your fault for playing them.
>>568137119Isn't the energy shield one the 2-point node?
Can I play spell totems from level 1? Not playing this shit game unless I can.
>>568136956Martial master is mainly to allow you to build combo on a different weapon set like for example using ranged attacks for combo then dropping a bell using that combo on a Quarterstaff. Yes, it's dogshit and no one will ever use this because you can't run two versions of the same skill anymore for 2 separate bell combos, but there might be some version allowing this to work well with werewolf strikes to build up and combo off of bell for instance. Just imagine that this allows you to use combo as a supporting archetype rather than a main archetype. It's way worse than adept though, monstrous node for 2 points.
>>568136956being able to build combo with something like twister probably enables some goofy build.
>>568137101I doubt anyone in these threads is being slowed down becasue of their build. it'll almost always be timewasting and playing inefficiently.
Is it true that GGG spent over 2 years hyping up weapon set gameplay and combos and passive tree combinations then deleted it all because people were having too much fun?That can't be trueCan it?
>>568136956the unique xbow that lets you fire without reloading -> dump a mag on the fastest skill shooting the biggest amount of bolts available -> cash in the combo on your actual weapon
>>568137119Small didn't read moment here huh>>568137239Yes it is, in theory this lets you use combos even if you aren't playing a QS archetype but I personally can't see why you would.
>>568134782It's qol and immediate power for leaguestart i supposeYou don't leaguestart with +proj bow and quiver, and ice shot feels like shit on 1 proj, compared to LA which has autotargeting beams (and bigger hitbox? it certainly feels like it). Automark is nice qol, and 100% inc evasion from tailwind should be pretty good for new deflect formula together with 10% extra DR.It remains to be seen how viable leech is, and amazon crit node is quite a bit less efficient that you may believe, because you are always distance penalized.
>>568137239I dont remember regardless you need both since heralds dont build combo on their own. Every attack will build combo, which if it works with heralds is cray cray
>>568137241level 22enjoy rolling magma into stat stacking, poowunner
>>568137241No. You need a level 7 gem which you get in act 2
>>568137119reducing shield recharge delay is about to become a whole lot more valuable this patch, too. it'll make sense to get it on an ascendency.

>>568137579>it fucking suckedpoe2 would be better if devs ignored poo1 player feedback
>>568137290yeahp pretty much thatanything that attacks giga fast you can use culmination and aliths chime to spendfalling thunder will hit for 1 billion damage if you do this without having to touch whirling assaultyou can slap culmination on many things too, so if you get whirling slash to .1s attack time, you generate combo on like 5 big attacks then they all do 150% more damagebut yes with alith's chimes, generate a billion combo, generate max power charges, falling thunder or flicker is one idea
>>568137808I will continue to ruin your game
>>568137808we won :)

>>568138040its 5 days from now
Everyone start revving up your steamdb player count predictions for the next thread. We need to get the basic gestalt on whether doomoids or hopeoids are correct when the league launches.I predict 280k peak. Good endgame changes but no big patch note changes will limit the top end.
>>568138040no tomorrow we get updated patch notes
Can we all accept that playing any form of Path of Exile is psychotic behaviour

0.5 is going to have challenges right?
testing out Supporting Fire tactician on a respecced old character (RIP my stomping ground+rake+deepest tower 0.2 build, you were too based for this world) and it's easily the best feeling minion build for general clear/mapping I've ever played in poe2. The problem with 90% of minion builds, even ones that can outright delete pinnacles like -150% lightning resist doryani's prototype+powered zealots (which I played in 0.3) is that they feel like ASS when mapping and your defensive layers need to be good enough to survive running face-first into a bunch of mobs before your minions catch up and start hitting; you can alleviate this somewhat with Unearth but now you might as well just play a totem build if you're gonna be mashing temporary attackers every few seconds. Supporting fire totally solves this with its fucking huge aoe covering your screen and then some, and with bidding 3 it has higher uptime than cooldown so it's just running around pressing right click once every five seconds. every white mob in multiple zip codes is dead so all you need to care about are magic and rare packs, and minion AI works a lot better with fewer enemies on screen (probably because monsters are coded with fighting players in mind, and even in party play there's only 4 targets to worry about, not 50+).The obvious downside is its single target damage against map bosses isn't great, but who cares this shit has zero spirit reservation so you can just have actual minions kill bosses and press an offering once per map. For pinnacles you can just swap in shit like powered zealots for the 30 seconds you'll spend fighting arbiter or xesht in a league (and even cheese them with doryani's prototype, not like arbiter of ASH is doing lightning damage lmao) there's no maven or uber elder to worry about. The other annoying thing is you only get your 6th support gem slot at lvl 90 which most people will have enough money to buy a perfect jewelers by that point

>>568145685Its kind of funnyThis entire league is "we fixed endgame"What if it still sucks?Is that just gg? PoE 2 is dead?
So, we've established-poe 1 players are jamboy faggots that love trade-poe 2 players are straight, white men that play ssf and fuck big titty latinas

>>568145638>6 months
>>568145685its clear that tencent gave them marching orders. this would explain why jon and mark have COMPLETELY abandoned all the principles they laid out in the run up to 0.1 and 0.2. somewhere into 0.3 or 0.4, they had "The Meeting."
Shame SSF isn't a viable option anymore in 0.5.Too much bloat to not tradecore at least a little.
why are the poe2ers malding
Wish we could path from any starting nodes as any class, Martial Artist looks fun as fuck but it's going to made of paper in T15 maps. The defensive bonus from Mountains Teaching basically won't function with a single damage mod on the map playing Eva/ES
>>568145945Nice try jamboy. Now rub it on your skin.
>>568145685Jonathan wants to retire like Chris and he probably can't until 1.0 is out.
>>568145945its the opposite, you keep playing longer when you have something to farm for
>>568145828playing ssf is like going to the motor race track with nothing but running shoes. you can do it, but then you should ask yourself why you are not just going for a comfy run in the woods instead of running on a track that was clearly designed for cars.
>>568145828latinos but yes
>>568145979it's SOFT poe1'ers posing as HARD poe2'ers trying to doom as they tremble in fear of the 0.5 HYPE.
>>568145769The good part about PoE 2 being a shitty convoluted garbage heap is that nobody in the entire world other than maybe 4 streamers actually knows how anything works. There will be ZERO competent guides released this league (in game or out of game) just like always and the game will remain "unsolved" and therefore have more legs than it otherwise would.Basically, by being bad, the game is seen as "good" because it's unsolved. Compare it to a solved game like PoE 1 that dies instantly because there's nothing to think about anymore.

>>568146493Cool, I figured as much.>a few daysYou said the same thing last time and we're still stuck with it.
>>568145769The game itself is pretty good, especially since the nigger ape super density problems of pre 0.4 got changed so t16 reds aren't filled to the brim with juiced one shot machines and damage everywhere. The main problem with the game has really outside of that been bad balance and no content, but more endgame pinnacles and more chase items should mean there's plenty of content unless you play a ton of hours. Enough for 6 months of game? Not so much but PoE 1 is there despite my belief that poe1 development should be stopped until 2 is fully out. Genuinely just give us Phrecia League again
>>568138947that's a very nice portal, and the druid portal last league was good too, I use it
>>568146305there is no rush. if you like running so much, why are you running on race tracks for cars instead of taking scenic routes where you will be unbothered by the hard asphalt mechanics that are balanced around cars? >>568146349spamming quotes is the reddit of discussion
