This Path of Exile 2 expansion is the PERFECT time to get your friends, family, dogs (probably not cats) into PoE2.

Tighter campaign, revamped but defined endgame, tons of new character options - encourage those people to hop in!

Feel free to join me on launch - senpai is gone, I'll be playing a dumb amount and SOLELY be in SSF, going through the new systems, brand new story and dialogue, tinkering on my own build, and really getting the golden PoE experience.

There will be drops, the gifted sub, Bibles verses, and more surprises.

I am SO pumped for Friday, are you?

Belton says everybody who is crying about the crafting "nerf" is a retard. He says that most of the mods that essences provide a generic, which a regular tag, and only special ones that read "of the essence" (like hysteria shit for example) might be the exception.

reminder:
having modifiers tied to separate itemised drops allows for easier fine-tuning and balancing of acquisition
having metamod socketables on items with variable socket counts makes for more interesting crafting environment, where exceptional bases with more sockets than usually allowed opens up new craft possibilties and methods
new players get to slowly acquire knowledge of crafting possibilties as they keep encountering new runes instead of having a long list dumped onto them
socketables allow for interesting item affixes that interact with them or the socket count
socketables allow for non-destructive item modifications, increasing the flexbilty of player gear without impacting pre-existing item affixes
socketables can have various themes, instead of being fungible benchcraft tokens (divine orbs), which makes them target farmable via specific mechanics
socketable themes might interact with each other (ie. modifiers that work if socketable of type A is inserted alongside a socketable of type B into an item or for mutual exclusion of socketable types in one item)
socketables instead of fungible benchcraft tokens might interact with other game systems and mechanics (such as corruption, as seen in the case of soul cores and architect soul cores in the lira vaal temple)

it does make sense in poe1
some essences add mods with the same tier as existing mod tiers so ggg just reused those and only made new "essence" / "of the essence" mods when they wanted values that none of the existing mod tiers had
essence mods are exclusive for recombinators but ggg forgot that not all essences add "essence" / "of the essence" mods

Damn I cant wait until the 0.5 is out! LET ME FUCKING IN!
I will play Huntress for the first time and will pick the new ascendancy class, spears are a bit confusing but i am interested in new Unique Spear that lets you get angel wings and slam the ground. Will it be enough to just do lightning damage + attack speed or should i pick other nodes for DPS? Why I am asking since spears are fucking both Melee and Ranged but the damn skill for the spear is Melee.

>>568380683
due to the way poe2 works, its much harder to look at a pob and get an idea of what the character actually does or if its even functional
everything is conditional, generator / spender balance all over the place, using multiple skills for damage, recovery is hard to come by etc
you can look at a pob in poe1 and instantly get a good idea of the survivability and damage of the character, to the point where some build guides have literally 0 gameplay footage
not necessarily a good or bad thing but it makes poe2 guides a lot more interesting than poe1

...at the beginning of the league
after level 40 or so you start losing lots of armor/eva/es in exchange for ward
and runic gems scale their costs i'm sure and cost efficiency % probably applies to them
so a level 19 runic gem probably gonna cost basically 250 ward per use have fun playing with that while walking around with 50% less defenses

100k dps in poverty gear and only level 30 gems and only 4 supports (when you can get +levels from mainhand, offhand, helmet, amulet, and supports), only 200 strength, and not even counting the damage dealt by actual minions with your 300+ spirit. Highest AoE coverage in the game at 18.4 meters, getting buffed next patch with MORE command skill cooldown, archon buff, and whatever the fuck puppet master stacks are.

POB doesn't have supporting fire implemented properly but it's nearly 1000% increased damage, +14 gem levels, 70% Damage as Extra chaos and break armor with chaos damage, like 56% More damage from Muster, and then you can switch between Bidding 2 for 30% More damage and Bidding 3 for 80% cooldown recovery depending on if you need more single target damage or greater aoe coverage.

bro thats lewd
>>
>>568388002
I guess what i'm asking is does it convert the elemental types into it's own mod? so prefixes with prefixes, suffixes with suffixes? or do they keep the slot and just convert?
so if I have
t1 fire
t1 cold
t1 lightning
does it become
t1 cold
t1 cold
t1 cold
or does it get its own specific prefix that is just one line:
t1 cold (converted)
and then you can slam 2 more prefixes?
>>
>>568388203
you wont craft any good martial weapons this league. its all ogre
>>
>>568388223
Like all the damn ascendancies I play, I end up playing lightning. I play 1 Ascendancy each season so I am happy, so this season I will try huntress and guess what I will do my own lightning build
>>
>>568388297
It has to be the former
>>
>>568388280
that's herta, dummy
>>
>>568388297
It would not condense the mods.
You'd have t1 cold x3.
>>
>>568388389
yea, i'm assuming because then you could get 2 more insane prefixes and have basically an 8 mod item
>>
>>568388297
It probably doesn't work if you already have a cold resist mod.
>>
>>568387835
Over in the wand/staff space you can slam until you get high tiers of Gain As, Increased Damage, and +skills of whichever then force the alignment. Though Betrayal of Aldur working on Martial Weapons is going to lead to some funkiness with Chalupa and Poison.

>>568388297
Pretty sure the reveal explicitly shows converting multiple elemental affixes to separate instances of the same type, so if you have +fire and +cold then apply the Lightning one you double up still taking two slots. Which due to how some modifiers work means "specialized" builds like Avatar of Fire get an even higher peak.
>>
>>568388297
why would you assume it would be the best version, ever?

When these runes have 'limited to 1' does that mean you're limited to one Kalguuran super special new rune or is it 'one of each'?

Also, how strong does this make the Martial Artist's +5 rune sockets?

Looking at the unique mods that can potentially be scaled it seems pretty damn strong. Trampletoe has 1/3rd the effect of the unique, but some of these uniques would be pretty crazy at 1/3rd effect still.

No you cannot. There are literally no ES nodes in fucking templar anymore. They added back es recharge and armour to ele instead.

I inferred that to mean that they were buffing Merc. hybrid AR/ES is going to be held hostage by:
1) the overall ES nerf
2) the new base defense numbers on hybrid ES/AR gear, which we don't know yet.

my guess is the hybrid gear for druid will have larger flat values and make up for the tree being bad; i.e. more of the power will be in the gear.

are you retarded? it's literally in the merc starting area. plenty of people will take it, you already travel down for the jewel socket in center of tree and 90% of builds path down even further for Crystallized Immunities and Gem Enthusiast or Iron Reflexes/Polymathy or the Movement Speed+Attack Speed from Adrenaline.
Tactician already takes the entire wheel right above it for free Intimidate on pinning.
The skeleton of 90% of mercenary builds is pic related because it's 3 jewel sockets with the least pathing.

Every Tactician paths down past there because you go down and to the left for the +14 max rage because Eternal Rage is only 50 spirit for them. So it's straight up 14% more damage for 4 points right next to a jewel socket you're already taking.

>>
>>568395839
EV builds stop benefiting from raising their evasion at a certain point and start to need more buffer for the hits which get through. everyone has been going hybrid ES since 0.1 and ward is definitely an alternative worth looking at.
>>
>>568396195
I play poe, I don't read
>>
>>568396004
>then the problem isn't ES
this doesn't follow my claim. ES is the problem because it survives far more easily than other builds when shit starts flying. For the odd stray hit, you have massive buffer. Otther builds do not. this is very easily observable by just looking at the highest max hit builds on poe ninja. Its just basic math. Whatever heuristic GGG is using to balance, it certainly isn't actual defense numbers

GGG just aren't balancing the game around the 10k ES stage, not yet (I don't even know how much evasion or armour that is equivalent to). maybe they will get to it, maybe the nerfs to endgame basetypes will hit ES bases the hardest we'll have to see.
>>
>>568395839
It depends how favorable the conversion is.

Directly converting Armor and Evasion into a hit pool is a 4-point ascendancy for Witch Hunter, even with a 50% reduction it's still gonna be extremely good and get you ~10k pseudo ES. If Ward converts at a favorable rate it will be in high demand by pure evasion and pure armor builds because giving up some avoidance for raw life pool is always favorable after a certain point, a 100k armor build would rather have 50k armor and +10k life.
>>
if you have 10k max es and press convalescence without any other modifiers to ES recharge, you will have 5k ES when its over plus your ES will keep recharging @ 1250/s past that if you don't take damage
meanwhile life sissys have to chug a flask desperately or use the incredibly nerfed and RAPED leech and they die to a small breeze whereas ES can tank most one shots which is all bosses are now anyway

Way of the mountain with deflection cap, increased dmg reduction on deflect and a bit of damage taken from mana looks pretty good compared to ES/EV

>>
>>568396550
>Then why is the balance so fucking trash?
because most players aren't very good, and because once people are farming t15s with good gear (i.e. what you think "game balance" should mean) the balance ceases to even really be relevant (its just about movespeed at that point).
I wonder what % of players even turn the healthbar on over their character.
>>
>>568396497
personally most of my deaths are to ground effects and damage over time because one shots are basically all highly telegraphed or red flash melee slams but a five mod abyss rare teleporting on top of you and disabling recovery is a fuck you unless you have 10k ES.

At the start of 0.4 ignites were also bugged and the flammability buffs were affecting monster ignite damage which made dousing charms like 10 ex the first few days lol
>>
It's weird that the player stun gauge just... doesn't matter for most people? People aren't just standing still blocking or parrying. You are insta-stunned if you get hit while sprinting.

Why not make it so you simply get like 1000% extra stun while sprinting and not make it an insta-stun? It's still one or two hits to stun for people who don't spec into it while people with a bunch of stun gauge can now sprint around freely.
>>

>>568396173
This is a pretty bad keystone in poo2, since damage doesn't recall dick about itself you can only scale shit from generic increases and fire, which is blatantly worse than what they keystone was capable of in 1. And yes, ALL your non-fire damage becomes 0 at the end state. I'm not sure if damage as extra works since that's technically still you dealing damage? If it doesn't, then this is a terrible keystone even further
>>
Someone last thread said they already have 0.5 fatigue and I’m unironically feeling it
>>
EV/ES is the only hybrid that works in tandom. When the hits get through you have bigger hit pool and evading gives time to recharge. AR/EV is bad because when the hits get through you have shitty mitigation, unless you go Bitchhunter. AR/ES is the worst its anti-synergistic. I'm not counting using block because shields are gay.

ggg are balancing the game with totally different priorities to you are playing the game remember.
they want to kill you and you want to live.
you think you dying is a failure, they think equal % of OVERALL players dying using each defense type is success.
I doubt abyss rares with ground degen teleporting on top of you are being used as an argument in favour of ES because that's a combo of mods which might not be statistically significant but which you remember as being "unfair".

It's funny that this thing gives you 100% recoup against a boss, but does genuinely nothing while mapping. The phrasing of this shit is also extremely restrictive and unfair
>ES does not recharge
>Does not recover from regeneration
So we cannot use Zealot's Oath which is explicitly Regeneration only, but we can use Shavronne's which everyone uses anyway, we can use ES leech as that's recovery, and we can use what little recoup exists in the game. Meanwhile, Zealot's Oath legitimately only works with your natural health regeneration only, which is gay and cringe. It's all dogshit, even keystone on the left side of the tree has been neutered to hell and back except for plants. It's a little bit tiring

They all work in tandem. Every 10 points of armor is effectively 1 point of life against oneshots, 3 points against 2shots, like 5 against 3shots, 10 against 5shots. 1 point of ES costs like 1-2 Armour on a hybrid base so you're almost always coming out ahead. On a hybrid evasion base you're coming out like 2-3k effective life ahead vs slams, which is totally functional. Plus whenever you add Armour gear to a build you can add strength for extra life.

The real killer is the 8 second recoup duration, but honestly even if it were a 4 second recoup it's a fairly useless keystone.

Somehow CI is perfectly fine being mandatory and powerful but expecting every keystone to be as powerful as CI makes GGG big mad

GGG don't give a SINGLE FUCK if ES players with 500 div of gear die slightly less than AR players with 500 div of gear.
it's completely irrelevant to them and that's a good thing.

I'm lazy and want to avoid carpal tunnel but friends talked me into leaguestarting with them

between the two of them, is a minion or plant necro likely to be more chill to play and easier to gear for while still being able to to pinnacle content in a private league with limited trading?

I like the idea of plant lich (swapping to abyssal lich) but I know minions have traditionally been ezmode at least in poe1

Every starter in Poopy 2 requires you to press 5,000 buttons. Plantnigger included. The game is made for consolebabbies so you should get a controller and only use keyboard and mouse for trading.

Twister is unironically comfy because you start off with a combo straight out the gate. Compared to other builds where you pick things and drop things constantly as they stop scaling or something stronger comes along and certain levels.

If carpal tunnel is a real concern, it doesn't matter what you play. What you should figure out is setting up keybinds so that you almost never click with your mouse, except for menus, and essentially just use it as a pointer.

Yeah except it's a meta build and everyone on earth will be doing it and no matter what you do you will have to play with the knowledge that some chink somewhere has optimized the build better than you with his encyclopedic knowledge of every interaction in the game and you will never, ever figure out anything better than him because he spends 24/7 playing this game

GGG should timegate endgame to not unlock for one (1) week after launch in order to encourage people to take their time through the endgame. And then unlock one (1) additional map tier every 48 hours so the dadgamers don't get left behind.

>>568402218
I don't disagree but it's just, why play trade if you aren't going to rush to endgame? You are either mazed, delusional, or an SSF chad. There's no in-between here. I would go SSF but I don't know if the global is different between ssf and trade and I don't want to miss out on bantz and gibs
