why did the league flop?
>>568854083>literally 0 good guides why the fuck is this community so lazyThe cost of super autismal gameplay. So few truly understand it that most aren't even willing to attempt to teach others. Also the way the game is structured there's just no point in guides for most skills because it would be pointless to make a guide that says. "This skill will make you struggle in campaign and you can only make it good spending 500 mirrors".
even aris reached maps day 1 of the league, whats your excuse?

>Mid part of Act 2>Already feeling weakDo I really need to craft (ugh) my gear this early?Where are the drops?

>>568854389What is she doing?
What are you guys running on martial artist? I thought whirling assault would feel better, but maybe I'm not building it right. Hollow palm still feels fine, maybe I'll try a power charge falling thunder build. Anyone fucked with gathering storm + the new bell interaction yet?
>>568854410>Where are the drops?You're getting drops, crafting mats are the main drops of the game. If you want gear to drop you have to play other games that get people super mad if mentioned so I'll leave it to your imagination.
>>568854598thats a pretty good idea for mtx sets

>>568854841PoE1?
>>568855206EDC like every fucking league
do you need to equip higher level items to get higher level items to drop or is it just based off character level
>>568854841But man, I hate crafting. I don't even use trans and aug in PoE
>>568854598>Inconsistent video namingEw.
>>568855385That's the game autists cried for, don't know what else to tell you.
>>568855206Essence drain contaigion lich lich makes you impossible to kill and the build is extremely easy to learn and execute

>>568854714Whirling Assault just got nerfed a few hours ago so you can't 100% movespeed it for free anymore. it's still really good otherwise as long as you can gen powers for it and scale the damage. the easiest way to do it is stonefisted lochtonials which will allow your clones to generate all three types of charges to you on hit and also upkeep Charge Regulation for free.

>>568855481I miss my crafting bench
>>568850697Oh, you're a retarded tranny.Carry on, anon.
>>568855758rather, Hollow Form got movement nerfed, not Whirling Assault.

>About to fight jamanra on my mace build
Ive beaten arbiter in every patch I did it on ssf in 0.1 I still have absolutely no idea how to gear in poe2 besides >lol just pick up a good item lmao

>Annul drop it Matlan WaterwaysNeat.
>>568856447Based off the monster level. Shows on the top right of the screen.
Game sucks. This fight took me legitimately 20 minutes and then I died near the end because I got so bored. Horrible, horrible game. Way, way too fucking difficult.
>>568856805go back to d4 you soft brown retard.
>>568856805I think a real weakness of the campaign, as a campaign enjoyer, is that newbies have no clue as to how to actually improve their build. There are no zones they can farm in and no direction to meaningful upgrades
>>568855752JONNY'S GUNNA FREAK
>>568856805did it literally as fast as it could phase on my sorc sucks to suck
Is ice shot dead eye meta
>>568855752they showed monk deleting bosses in the preview vids, I think this meaningful combat thing is just a delusion that people are shadowboxing
is it worth it to go find map pieces for the baby expedition in act 4do you get something for it
Why cant shaders be precompiled?
>>568856936the worst offender is that the gem system is bloated to hell and back and most of the "suggested" supports are hot garbage.
>chimes 25d>not coming downbald
>>568855532Can it do all content?
>>568857174It's so-so usually but it's tied in to the league mechanic this time around.
Did hollow form wing blast anon make it work? Thinking of a respec.
>>568856875I've never played it but after this shit show I might try it out.>>568856936I don't know if I qualify as a newbie with 3k hours in POE1 but I also don't get how you're meant to get stronger in this game without vendor recipes etc. I refuse to go back to old maps to farm but if even if that were a thing I can't think of a docks equivalent. The acts in these games fundamentally should not put up a challenge at any point as long as you know how to check vendors. The fact a weaker build actually has to prepare for Jamanra is a complete failure on GGG's part.
when does bear start to feel betterright now it feels like the worst of all worlds>long as fuck cast animations that you just straight up die in the middle of because they take so long>stand in one place in melee and get one shot because lol melee once it gets rolling it does good damage but my god everything is so fucking slow and stationary. i picked this build because i saw clips of a sickass bear running around with explosions everywhere, did i get baited into playing a slams build
>>568856936I dont think it's possible for a new player to enjoyably get through the campaign without a guide
Project Diablo 2 > poop of excrement 2
>>568857271Just farm it yourself, it's not even that hard
What are the best stonefist unique gloves? I really don't have any luck with gloves so I'm thinking of buying some
>>568854324Have to work this weekend, got next week free though. Still I'm at 2nd interlude with 5 hours played
Why can't I find any wyvern builds? Every druid build is just gay plants or bear and a couple of wolf builds. Did wyvern get nerfed that hard?
>>568855752They sell the game on "meaningful combat" but there is literally no difference between poop1 and poop2 endgame.
Do I continue my Stormweaver Twisted Empyrean mana stacking build or swap to gemling and just go with whatever skill has a cool secondary effect and stack gem quality and stats? Not enough out of A1 yet so it doesn't matter.
Do any of the mace warr builds from last league(s) still work?
>>568856936I also think, as someone who actually enjoys the campaign in poe1, that it was a dumb decision for them to make Act 1 BY FAR the hardest part of the game and campaign and it gets stupidly easier and easier so by the end of Act 3 you're steamrolling Doryani and could honestly be doing t1 maps instead of Act 4 or interludes a lot of the time. In PoE1, even picking up some white armor bases off the beach and tossing it on will make you feel stronger fighting enemies, the mud flats rhoas are a meme largely because they're so lethal to people running literally naked for the extra movespeed, but as a noob if you equip literally anything in every slot you won't have trouble. Most of the enemies in Act 1 of PoE are also slow stumbling zombies and shit, and deal mostly cold damage so by the time you fight merveil you only need cold res from some rings and you're fine. in PoE2, there's hyper-aggressive fast pack monsters like werewolves, deadly phys dot ground effects in ogham manor, lots of high hitting phys hits you can't really mitigate and have to dodge like executioner guillotine, and you need cold res for geonor but want fire res for earlier in the act and charms are a massive downgrade from flasks.In PoE1 if you're a noob or not following a guide or trying some meme shit, you can still get through Act 1 easy and your poor decision making will probably bite you in the ass by the time you fight Kitava. In PoE2 you're MOST punished for being bad or inexperienced right off the bat in Act 1, and by the time you fight Tavakai in Act 4 even with an empty passive tree you can still kill him just by equipping a decent staff with high % increased and +Gem Level because the passive tree is so weak and so much power is in gearSo there's the structural question; in PoE1 Kitava and the Trinity are intentionally harder than Merveil. In PoE2, should Count Geonor be the hardest boss in the game? Because right now he is, by far. Doryani is a joke by comparison
Ok cool, so you can't run any valuable map until you find one of these to run it under, awesome
Are PoE 2 minion builds tanky? I was looking up some guides for non-minion builds and a lot say "don't get hit playstyle"
ITS DAY 2 AND THE CUSTOM SOUNDS FOR THE LOOTFILTER STILL DONT WORK I REPEAT, THEY STILL DONT WORK AND ITS DAY 2
>>568857905Varashta Djinnsit's one of the go to HC builds
>>568856805Bonestorm is your single-target skill here.Wand/Staff with % as Extra LightningEntangle + Living LightningBonestormStack Channel/projectile/generic damage on passive tree.That's it, that's all ya need for bosses.
>they add a remnant gathering modifier item the league AFTER i do remnant buildfuck u
>>568857859jamanra is still a humongous difficulty spike even after many nerfs too tbqh. even though i agree with the rest of your post act 1 is too hard.
it's another league launch and it's another thread of me proven right by poo1babs complaining about poe2 being too hard, even though when it's not league start they will deny this
>>568857847just find an updated one for 0.5path of evening titan is what i'm followinglexd tank build might be worth looking at too but its shield wall
>>568857694>2 skills on bar>1shots bosses>clear skill more than likely 1shots the screen if his gear is strong enough to 1shot the bossesPoE1 is literally harder because a lot of utility isn't automated until you've spent hundreds of divs, if you invested an equivalent amount into a PoE1 character you'd still be using arcanist brand/manual curse amongst other things on the boss, and you still wouldn't be oneshotting it
>>568858084Literally does no damage either. All it does is stun him sometimes. It's not salvageable and a flopped leaguestart in this game means the game is over because the acts are torture. Getting to act 3 legit takes me more time than getting to maps in POE1.It really sucks because I WANT to enjoy POE2 but it's so insanely hostile to it's players I just can't justify playing it.
>>568858242>path of eveningheheheh the poe2 players don't know
>Here's three back to back, longer than usual zones during which going back to town will give you as much cancer as possible
Ugh, you aren't playing the game optimally!!!
>>568858282>Literally does no damage eitherThat combo 5-shot Xyclucian just a few hours ago.You are lying out your ass. I was giving you the benefit of the doubt, Frakfurter, but you're just as shit and annoying as always.
>>568857694ive been saying this>play poe1>press 1 button to blow up the screen>collect loot>play poe2>the selling point is supposed to be le meaningful combat>press 1 button to blow up the screen>no loot drops because its poe2
God-damn it.I keep asking myself. Why am I not having fun? I am cruising through the game without any struggle, so, what's missing? Did I pick a boring build!? Should I re-roll? Or is the game bad and GGG shit the bed once again?No.The problem runs deeper.The problem is following a build guide. Following a plan laid out for you by another. Playing the game in softcore trade, a league where you have nothing to lose. Everything you do is meaningless because your victory is assured. It is barely even a video game and, even less so, is a challenge. I might as well be playing that dogshit Mixtape game.I am ashamed to have followed a build. I am ashamed to have chosen to play softcore trade once again. I mean, what would Alysa say if she caught me 'playing' the game like this?I will delete my unethical build. I will reset all my progress gained in these 17 hours of gameplay back to zero, where I deserve to be because I have earned NONE of this, and I will be playing HCSSF instead.The only real game.But that is not enough. No. To atone for my sins of playing softcore trade every single league so far, I will be playing the least played ascendancy this league, Pathfinder and not only that, I will play mace. You say melee sucks? I say you lack vision.Let Silverfist farm me as many times as it pleases him. Because maybe by earning my victory this way. I will finally feel something.And no, it's not a shitpost.
>>568858487No idea what Frakfurter is but I could literally record myself doing this boss. It's not hard to prove things, retard.
alkaizer died and his 2nd character has 10k es on day 1 on hcLike whats the point of gear progression when you cant die and delete everything day 1?It has less gear prog than d3
How would you design a POE card game to rival MTG?
>>568857271i've literally made over 200 divs farming them and selling them to streamerchuds.
>>568857694When was the last time jonathan said "meaningful combat" I bet it's been at least 4 years.
>>568857367dunno about the new 0.5 stuff but it could do all the pinacle bosses and shit I never make it to super hyper late end game juiced maps so idk how it fares there
>>568858670Alkazier knows what he is doing you do not
>>568858916I know what im doingIm not playing a Jonathan's shit smear game
>>568858047I already have a sorceress, maybe I should. I'll look into it today, thank you so much anon!
>>568857471once you get rampage with herald of ash and a decent weapon, maybe some attack or skill speed I dunno. bear is basically unusable outside of rampage imo. i level(ed) as wyvern with rend, devour, and oil barrage until then, though I don't know what changes those things got this league. you can also level as thunderstorm coursing current through basically the entire campaign but it requires a bigger respec at the end.
How do we fix these low pickrates?
GGG really expects me to do this shit every 3 months
it sucks that if your leaguestarter is not good you might as well quit because the early game experience is so awful. i cant believe im actually for an acts skip, i never once uttered those words in poe1.
>>568858991and yet here you are seething sounds like cope
>Abyss quest wants me to fight a boss in an abyssal depths>If I fail the map, I can just put in a new map and it forces the abyssal depths spawn for the story every timeIs there any reason I SHOULDN'T abuse this by spamming them and resetting?
i brought two chars to act 2 and dropped them i dont think i have it enough in me for a third one
At this point the best thing GGG can do is just blanket nerf the HP of every mob in the acts by like 25%
>>568858916>spend 1ex in every slot> 10k es achieved
>>568859280then dont play trade retard
>next purchase is free for 220>in the same shop as 40%ms boon and no more minor afflictioni swear if i somehow throw this run
>>568857510That's exactly what I did and I loved it. I had only ever dabbled in ARPGs and had never played PoE.
i know what atziri's butthole smells like and you don't
>>568859365>play the economy game without the economy?
>>568859067give broken gimmicks to all ascendancies instead of just one per leaguenerf rangedmake melees tankier
>>568858487Here's how much damage 2 bonestorms did. You lying piece of fucking shit, kill yourself.
>>568859479nice cope shitter, you complained about the trading making the game easy then take the training wheels off and play ssf you pussy
>>568859067By killing all youtubers and streamers. Oh and the internet while your at it. Then the game will be fixed. And there will be balance in the world.
On PoeNinja under builds, is that just the number of characters scanned today or that meet a certain requirement?If so it is crazy to me how dead hardcore is on PoE 2 (both trade and self found) and how dead self found soft core is.
>>568859624>play ssf>end up having 10k es in 12h anywayok what now? do i turn off es bases in my filter or what?
>>568859434Depends what build you run.I imagine a brand spanking new player going blind two handed maces (which is what I expect a new player who is WHITE to do) is going to be utterly baffled.
>>568859715>>end up having 10k es in 12h anywaygo on then do it 12 hours and ticking get 10k ES and post the screenshot of your character11 hours and 59 mins left
>>568858328go on...
Campaign zones aren’t big enough, they should all be AT LEAST as large as that one at the start of the act 2 interlude
>>568859825kek you can tell this is a turbo shitter that genuinely struggles with the game
>>568859280>>568859479>1ex in every slot>750 es chest>386 es helmetMe when I lie. It would be minimum 1 divine a pop even in softcore, let alone HC1/10 bait made me reply I'm not bothering to price check the rest of his items because you're already off by so much and such a faggot
rolling and sprinting is killing this game. when will they return the game to the fluidity path of exile had?
>he already pulled out instantly from getting 10k ES in SSF in 12 hourslmfao lmao lol hehe
>>568859713You have to add your build, if I remember right.>>568859801Frankly I did get lucky. I usually like melee DEX classes. I only ended up picking Witch begrudgingly thinking I wouldn't enjoy her that much because I usually don't like casters, it was just process of elimination that led me to pick her.
>>568859947Anon, you have to click on the funny blue nodes on the tree too.
How do I survive as monk?I've done hc past leagues, but I am getting buttfucked trying to get through campaign as monk. I've tried es and es/eva(all defense nodes) with no success. Do I have to level with bear or crossbow? It feels like I'm doing something wrong with how squishy monk is.
>>568860045Imagine if they had red es nodes on the treeNvm thats too confusing for the 60 iq retards GGG is targeting with PoE 2
>>568860008>shitter is a genshinfagcolor me suprised
>>568860169its not genshin and you are losing time boy giddy up get to work on getting that ES time is ticking
someone give me a decent monk lightning build, I'm level 55 and kinda struggling
>>568860169that's not genshin dumbass nigger kys
I'm fairly neutral on th egame and not invested in it's failure but I sincerely do not get why ES is still this strong like a year in.
>>568860008It's fairly trivial to get 10k ES on the first day if you don't care about MS or +Spell levels on your Focus. If you do have 10k ES with those then you're pretty lucky.
>>568860148>red es nodesCome on now, what the FUCK are you suggesting??That would be WAY too confusing, I mean, a stat that increases RED ES is way too complicated, how would that even work?
>>568857859I will fucking end you all if you take away the last bit of challenge the game has. Geonor is the best fight in the game and all fights should resemble it. It's the only scrap of soul they ever came up with and we should be asking for more of it not less.
>>568860169Godshin posters own /vg/ tho
>>568859095maybe poe 2 just aint for you, kiddo.
>>568860325Im just confused thinking about what "increased maximum life" would even meanMaybe its more of a diablo 4 stat
>>568860257>>568860250that's genshin what are you talking about??
uh oh stinky
>>568859585>2 bonestormsit's a channeled skill. there is no such thing as "two bonestorms". you don't have any idea what you're doing.
>tried free PoE2>literally PoE1 with better graphics>I mean LITERALLY PoE1 (same quests, same decors, same storylines, same systems, same mechanics)>log outI don't know if it's the heatwave this week that's fried my brain or not, but I'm just not into PoE2, sorry.
>>568860534>he doesnt know
>>568860447retard
>>568860447it's neverness to everness, it's not genshin it's chinese anime gta
>>568860045https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/runesofaldurhc/character/AlkaizerX-7789/poopgodI mean, can you look at this gear and tell me where that retard got "1ex per gear slot" from? You aren't getting high ES gear with dual res or a tri res belt with T1 life for 1ex in SC, let alone HC, like I said.
>>568860575its actually d2 but alright
>>568860534what the fuck are you talking about are you an ai bot.
newfag to poe 2what do I do if I don't like any of the skill gems? they're all super fucking lame (playing Huntress)
>>568860643>>568860661>it's not genshin it's "genshin but X"
>>568860719Pick a different weapon and try those.Crossbows for example.Or Spears.
>>568860447Nah, Genshin has different kind of kino loli
Haven’t been lurking the thread much cus I’ve been playing so much but this is a great league. Plenty of currency from drops + seasonal mechanic so rolling good gear for acts was a breeze and overall player power seems to be in a really good spot. I’ve got my hollow form stormwave martial artist in maps and just made the oracle/mom/archmage switch on my spell totem build. Overall I’d say this is the best league yet.
>>568860575It's d5 thobeit
$5 dollar subs and only getting 50% of the money, he is making an extra $7.6k this month. You think he ever writes Jonathan and says thank you?
>>568860643>>568860661It's not genshin... but it kinda is genshin.The ABSOLUTE state of gachafags.
AAA WHICH ONE IS OPTIMAL MY GUIDE DOESNT TELL MEt. monk
Stun stacking minions alongside stun on maxed out 4 point sand verashta is so fucking good
>>568860327Making the rest of the game harder than Geonor is almost definitely not happening, given GGG's behavior so far (they even nerfed Viper AGAIN this patch by giving mid fight flask recharge).In PoE1, the first act is the easiest and shit builds/noobs will have a harder time killing Kitava than Merveil. In PoE2 the first act is actually the hardest, whether you think Geonor should actually be the easiest boss and everything after him HARDER is a separate question from acknowledging that the current PoE2 difficulty curve is the inverse of PoE1.
>>568860808upvooted!
so the shitty bait build is totems this time? waggle/nick/steel are all struggling badly.
>>568860874find a better guide
>>568860915Finally some good genshinslop.
>>568860742>>568860868that trash wishes it was genshin
Which supporter pack should I buy so I can use the points on the new blight ranger poison set?
>>568860327mah niggageonor is so fucking kinoeverything leading up to iteven the voice acting is SSS+ tierso much fucking character delivery in just a few lines during the boss fighthow??? HOW?????count kinorCOUNT KINOR
>>568861059sure retard genshin invented anime games
>>568860719Skills are limited by weapon, not class. And spells can be used with any weapon.
>>568860915look at that cleavagegenshit could never
>>568860860This is why none of the streamers (Who pretty much all hate the game) keep their mouth shutThey will lose a lot of money if they tell everyone what they thinkAnd thats also why they can freely shit on other arpgs, because those games dont have hordes of retarded brown paypiggies to give their streamers money
>>568861169They literally invented that look
so where's the temple thing in Waterways supposed to be because I can't see it.
>>568861221>paypigs>brown

sorceress is the official white man classall the time delay on dps means you need high IQ and predictions
>Quin copying Mathil
>>568861135I still get chills when the fog rolls in. Hope whoever came up with that fight got a raise because he deserved it.
>>568861310Quarterstaff, spears, and unarmed are all for the chinese audience. By process of elimination that leaves maces being the whitest melee weapon.
>>568861281Go back from the crossroads. You need to start the map by entering from a different location if you generated it via the portal.
>ultimatum to ascendwhy did you homos bitch about labs
GGG did some smart shit with the archon and verashta its now do you scale and go all in on puppet master and archon for full on caster with commands or do you mix it with more damage and life for your base minions youre some smart bitches ggg
it unironically takes me like 33 hours to beat the acts in this. ive done poe1 leagues night 1 for as long as i can remember. your character is so absurdly weak in poe2 every boss is like a 10 deaths until you get lucky kind of affair
>>568861404>indian voice+5000 izzat
>>568859585>I fired off this skill at 2 stacks out of a possible 20 and it didn't do anything. how could this be happening to me?btw they nerfed movement with boner storm this morning so it's not really worth using since you can't actually move around while channeling it anymore.
>>568861582Which genshin game is this from?
>>568861637more like +5000 iqq ahh
>>568859095If you build can't do the campaign, it doesn't deserve to do endgame.
>>568861620equip a better weapon sis
free weekend shitter herehow heavily did the sword transforming wolfman boss get nerfed between poe2 launch and now? I remember seeing streamers struggle desperately against this guy but today I mashed bear slaps against him and he fell over.Did a lot get nerfed? Is it too late for me to ever be able to say I beat the game?stupid me I asked this in the old thread
>>568861620you're just extremely bad at the game. i'm bad at the game myself but I only take 10 hours to do poe 2 acts on a fresh league start.
How does the endgame feel, anons? Is it really that much better as they showed in the trailers?
>>568861698genshut the fuck up
>>568857694people want meaningful combat, just not in this game. this is not the meaningful combat genre.
>>568861882I was genuinely asking :/
>>568860874Wait which quest is this?Is it new?
>>568855752Jonathan had to make a containment zone for you speed running faggots and this is the end result. YOU RIKE?!
>>568861834He's a hollow shell of his original self but still putting normalfags in the grave so he's still doing his best and making it work even though Jonathan has tried to ruin the only good thing they accidentally made.
>>568861857hahano
>>568860575>same decorsPoE 2 looks worse than PoE
>>568861815there are no better weapons in a game without vendor recipes.
>>568861857Do you like more nodes? There are more nodes and circles to click. That's what you wanted right?
>>568861537>You need to start the map by entering from a different location if you generated it via the portal.Jonatroon I kneel to this dogshit game designalso the mobs are invincible. fucking horrid ass dogshit game.
What NPC do you gamble at in endgame now? I thought it was Alva but she just changes hideout and she isn't in the Ziggurat Refuge and none of the other npcs I have give the option.
>>568862001act 1 is all chris and it shows
>>568860874wtf is this????
Bros I'm in Act 3 and LA is still working. I thought they killed it
>>568862202The Merchant chick
im in early act 3 and completely utterly filtered. every boss is raping me over a dozen times before i kill them. there is no gear anywhere. i'm gonna quit.

>>568860915>stun on maxed out 4 point sand verashtawhat does this mean
spiritwalker fucking sucks dudeall the unique beasts blow major fucking dick
>>568854304>"This skill will make you struggle in campaign and you can only make it good spending 500 mirrors".why are you acting like character progression in an ARPG is a bad thinggo play call of duty or something
money time
>>568862459BUY MTX
>>568862459>Missing the first PoE 1 challenge league.Enjoy your bricked account lol, lmao.
does taking physical damage up increase my minions' physical damage
>>568862486you will play the dev approved build or you will not clear anything
>>568862452i got 2 uniques in keth from 2 chests. Skill issue.
>>568854058>played for 15 hours straight>went into a coma, woke up 12 hours latermate, this game is crack and I haven't reached endgame
(i presume the answer is yes)
comparison is the thief of joy
I have never managed to pick a good leaguestart and so I've never managed to beat the acts. I don't have the time and energy to do the awful acts twice per season so I usually just quit when the build fails but I also can't even tell if I think the game is good or not.
>>568854058
>>568862729>to do the awful acts twice per seasonwhy would you do them twice? There is no repeat of acts, there hasn't been for a long time.
>>568862680>15 hours and can't reach endgame even with handholding How shit are you?
where the fook is the act4 rune thingy
>>568862853the acts take me like 30 hours and i can do poe1's in like 6 lmao. the acts in this game are just absolutely brutal and difficult
>>568862870You need to collect all the map fragments then do the grand expedition, after you beat it a cave opens and you do the last league unlock
>>568862723Can't steal from an empty pot, where is the joy?
>Play ES build>You get infinite honour in the trial for some reasonHuh.
what a fuckin boring pile of cluster fuck shitscreenshot this post, the game wont meet expectations and jonathan gonna leave the company
>>568863001Trial of suckmas counts ES damage towards honor damage doesn't it?I always assumed it does, I've never played an ES build because I'm not a SISSY.
>all new creators videos on builds and memes>no video review of the new endgameHow am I supposed to make my opinion?
So what did they actually change with endgame?
>>568862830You can skip acts in POE2? That seems very unlike GGG wtf.
>>568863107it does yes
>>568863113There's a new endgame?
>>568863107Yeah, it does but in turn you just get an insane amount of honour i guess.
>>568862428Thanks, completely forgot about her since I was trying SSF this league.
>>568863121No? you do act 1-4, then there are three interlude acts to get you to endgame
>>568863221Oh. They count each point of ES as equivalent to point of life so you end up with 9999999 honor?
>upgrade unique>required level increases by 30>stats get worset-thanks?
>>568860957I guess maybe I should go to reddit if I actually wanna talk about the game. This place seems dedicated solely to shitposting, dooming, and tranny obsessing. Gay
>>568863265no it's a normal amount of honor for a ranged character, other anon is retarded
>>568863253Then I don't get what the post I quoted was talking about. But it also doesn't matter since I picked a bad leaguestart again so my league is killed and over, thanks GGG for making the game as hostile as humanly possible to anything even 1% off meta. If I ever play this game again I will just copy fub.
>finished act one to get the portalYeah, I'll take a break from this league. Took long enough already. I still have to finish challenges in PoE 1.
>>568859585I'm around this point and one built-up cast of Bonestorm did over 8k.You are big shit, my dude.
>>568862474anything with stun on support gems alongside more damage and stun build up on tree
>>568860915Doesn't this get niggered by the post stun 99% stun immunity period or do you just make sure you kill things off of one stun?
>>568863393bro there's plenty of stuff that works fine. Any spell caster can just run plants from the start then swap to whatever. And if you want to play melee, bear is good, and so is monk if that counts as melee. It's really not that serious.
>>568863457Yeah sure it did. The astroturfing this game receives is out of this world I wish they'd spend the money on actually making a good game.
>>568862853taking in consideration that it's my first character, ever, I say am pretty good, but please, post your map progression and /played
>>568863586>Doesn't this get niggered by the post stun 99% stun immunity period or do you just make sure you kill things off of one stun?its plenty of time to kill in 1 stun
>some skills so ass you don't even need to pick them up during the campaign >Explosive spear with an hour long detonation timer Good luck with boss fights. Who the fuck thought about that, lol!
>>568863465Are the other points on sand jinn good? I saw most people going deception and then also taking the fire jinn. Also channel skills normally feel like ass to play.
>>568863823bro...you are supposed to use explosive spear with charges...without charges it's absolute dogshit
GGG Appreciation PostI havent even reached Endgame yet but I already love this League so much. Been playing ssf since 0.1 (as someone who never got into poe1) and it just keeps getting better and better.Every patch gives me so much to work with, both new stuff and so many old ideas to revisit.And thats with (probably) some of my favorite weapon archetypes not even being in the game yet. I cant wait to see where this game is going!Huge shoutout to the Devs and everyone involved. You guys are amazing.
>>568863837beetles i use for extra stun, i occasionally use the crit judgement kinda wish it was something else but i take it anyway fire is great for clear bad for damage vs these 4 so its up to you and your playstyle
>>568863621I don't feel like respeccing to fucking plants and my char is tainted with a bunch of deaths already anyways. I'm sorry but this game just has no variety, either copy Fubgun or don't bother. Half the streamers I'm watching that aren't on one of the 3 good builds look like they're only a couple days away from quitting.
no complaint threads on reddit = successful league
>>568863976never going to understand people fellating the new league when they aren't even done with the campaign
>>568864024I'm going to make gemling flicker strike work or die trying.
Where's Ailith's Chimes come from
>>568863648The lengths some MF will go through just to farm up a single (You) is impressive.1 single cast of Bonestorm ~2s hold.Bonus cut cause I crit the first time lol.
>finish interludes at lvl 57>enter first map>4 min to kill jiquani bossmaaaaaaaaan
>>568864241The point is I don't care. You rmt'd or excessively grinded to get this damage. And it still barely dents the boss.
Impressive volume of butthurt.
>>568864095They've already dropped the game.
What's a reasonable amount of spirit I should have at the end of the campaign
>rmt to beat silverfistI guess someone in the brief history of poe2 has done this
can you block the natali spears with frost wall?how the fuck do they even expect you to survive, i have 1k es 1k life but only 16 chaos res, and i will never ever attempt this boss again unless i have 75 chaos
I dropped the league after a few maps. Game is still too easy.
>>568864521100.
>>568864174he is still lvl 5 anon-chan, what do you expect
>>568864536learn to dodge
>>568863976Upvoted!
>>568864665name one thing that doesnt instantly go off that's dodgeable
what's the whirling assault tech, because damn it seems to be awfully low damage
Not gonna lie having some regrets starting twisterthe damage is there, but by t10 maps i'm kinda getting tired pressing all that shit and getting flashbanged (died to gate boss multiple time, because it's impossible to see the mechanics)How are companions doing? Feel like it's time to go minioncuck until i can afford LS gear
>>568864823Deadeye is the way
>>568864757literally everything she does is dodgeable, it's a bit difficult to tell it all apart on your first try because of all the projectile spam but the spears on the side of the arena charge up over several seconds before attacking which gives you time to line yourself up into the correct location. same applies to the phase 2 damage circles, and all her linear attacks also have tags. if all else fails you can just parry her over and over since all of her melee attacks are parryable
liner attacks have tells, rather
>Fuck it, let's go do a low-level Temple>Go finish my missing altar in Jiquani's Sanctum (a bitch to find)>Open it up>First room drops 1 DivComfy slow gaming.
Okay you win jonathon.I wont play mace. Congratulations. You "fixed" melee by removing it from the game.How is bleed spear?
anyone find good uniques to do the base upgrade on? specifically, talismans for bear stuff. thinking maybe surge of the tide or spiteful floret are good candidates
I still have no idea where is the price check and in-game build guide button is
I believe in the vision now. Chris lost.
lets fucking gooooooooo
>>568865298It's bugged.
OH GOD I'M GONNA ROOOOOOOOOOOOLL
Why do I keep getting the same fucking skills? I didn't want any of these pieces of shit the first 3 times and I still don't fucking want them now.
>>568865298Triangle on playstation.
Okay, over a day into the league and I've restarted twice.Can someone give me a Spear build that's strong? I shouldn't have tried to experiment with Mace and then Bear.
>>568865592i think it's buggedmy spell list hasn't changed for fuck all either, unless it has something to do with the rune quest
>>568865592Because for some ungodly reason, they didn't include an alt recipe for that rune set that lets you peace out and get some extra Verisium instead.A lot of the middle size Runeshapes are so hilariously shit.
Is there even a tell for whether arbiter's going to do laser beam or explosion first, I've killed him every league by waiting for a good RNG pattern and then never fighting him again
why does sprint still existholy shit bring back chris I can't take this anymore, this game is so BAD
>>568865592>>568865836It's reliant on the runes, ya goobers.Because that last rune is locked in place, only outcomes with that Rune can be made.There's like 2 other Runes that can do pure Skills (although one of them also just gives you pure Verisium as an option too).Simply put, you got unlucky AND GGG is too silly to figure out how to do it right.
>>568865963Sprint is kino, fuck off. You're just crying because you suck.
>>568865781Twister that's it.
>>568858561
Why do people cry again about lighting damage being OP? Cold damage litterally breaks the game because you freeze everything.
I have not seen a single breach encounter and I just hit maps. I am seeing 3 of the new ward events when I zone into maps but I don't see any Vaal Temple nodes.Are there tablets for Vaal Temple now? Where do I unlock breach?
>>568864620but I start with that
>>568865963you get used to it. You can easily dodge roll before u get hit. Know when to spam roll and when to sprint.
>>568865910Never mind got the good pattern
real talk senpai imma keep it 100:it sucks that poe2 isnt a good gamedo you know how fuckin hype exilecon2019 was? a new updated poe? wtfffffffffff yoooooooo
I wonder if he made it >>568644975How many newfags actually survive the campaign?
>>568866309because it's easy
>>568866424>Know when to spam roll and when to sprint.Traveling? Sprint. Running passed enemies? Sprint. Fighting a pack? Sprint.Why ever not sprint? Just roll when about to be hit. Mistime the roll? Eat the death. Worth the occasional death.I really don't think this is a good thing.
>first time doing interludes>sel khari sanctuary>fuck you huge desert map full of fucking nothing>go find it ;^)what in the time wasting bullshit is this
Isn't this absolutely fucking insane?
>>568866357yes there are tablets for temple
>>568866749>Surpassing chanceWhat in the hell is this.It seems to be all over the new dex and int stuff.
>>568866704there's a thingy that gives you a compass to the required story thingy
So what was the crafting with essence change? You cant use a greater and perfect on the same item anymore? And alloys were suppose to replace this but all the alloys fucking suck?
>>568866749It's not that much better than normal Kitoko's even for skills that want proj, but normal Kitoko's is pretty good, so sure
How the FUCK are you supposed to do Sekhema Trial 3 & 4 as a non-meta melee build? Is this entire game designed around metacuck ranged builds that oneshot bosses and offscreen with one click or something?
>take map to dannig>dannig wont take mapfucking retards
>>568866867TL;DR: Only 1 Essence/Alloy can be used on an item.If you wanna use another one, you have to remove the previous one by some means, like Chaos orbing it off.
>>568866704here you go retardbro
>>568866858Means it can stack beyond 100%, like 150% chance would mean a guaranteed extra proj + 50% chance for another.
>>568867187Wrong Dannig.
>>568867173Yes, you aren't supposed to play melee. The devs don't want you to play melee so they made it bad on purpose. That's why there is only one melee weapon because they are contractually obligated to say melee is in the game but they don't have eto actually make any melee content.
>>568867187give it to the ship captain
>>568867173this is not a melee game
>>568867225well... thats kinda shit lmao.
The challenge set from this patch will be the most rare gear in the game because only the most insane would be motivated enough to get it.
Newfag query: in terms of purchasable stash tabs, which ones should I prioriitise to get on-sale?
>>568867325That sounds sick. I guess it can never work with bleed and ignite because only one of those apply at a time anyway, right?
>>568867173Do chaos trials
>>568867810game is fucking annoying without a currency tab
I have a currency and map tab from poe 1 with one or two premium tabs. Are these already enough for poe 2 or are there other tabs needed?
Plants on Lich or Oracle?
>>568867837some ignites compound
>>568867810Currency and merchants for sure. I really like the gem tab also
>>5688657814th reroll coming up
>>568866749Nah your bow willa have 200% surpassing once u get a good one
>>568867954Incinerate and flame breath or are there more?Is it the compounding ignite thing?
>>568867271thanks anon but its less about actually playing it and more of WHY ARE THE MAPS SO BIGi get it they are trying to impart a sense of scale, but it does not translate to good gameplay at all
>>568866661Your hallways?
>>568868167I counted those as traveling. Unless there's enemies in the hallway in which case its running passed mobs.
>>568865963i really dont get what chris would do for people like you like why is the view on chris as a dev so warped now? even in his most recent interview he stated he would have turned the whole game into ruthless without people holding him back.
I'm about to finish act 2 and I'm already bored with my grenade merc should I reroll?
I'm honestly baffled people are in maps already. I just got to the fire faggot in act 3 at 10 hours played. In POE1 I would be in maps for a good amount by now.
Okay - well I tried to get melee (Mace) working without relying on Shield Wall and it's complete dog shit no matter what.What's the most meta Twister build. Fuck this bullshit. Time to follow the meta. How do I level this shit?
>>568868398play a better game
>>568857431>3k hours in poe1>can't kill a campaign boss in poe2pottery
>>568868398I would rather leave the game than play the campaign more than once a league
Im so fucking bored I need to gain like 4 more levels until I can get 3rd ascendency and finally pop the fuck off with my wasps goddamit. I even got this baller neck for 1ex
>>568868567You need lots of divs to make twister fun. Just play LA until you have a nestegg.
>>568865370what are these stats
i have never bought a single cosmetic in all my time playing poe i wish there was at least some way to make my character look like a non-hobo without dropping money on it
>>568857431>20 minutes on chimera of all things?
just bought a +4 all levels +60% spell damage staff for 1 ex lolretard really didn't know what he had
Level 80 and I've got no fucking currency
When does spark get good?I am in early maps and that shit feels ass, takes me a minute to kill the fucking boss and the build feels squishy
druid feels like complete ass nowarmor/es is better but still rough feeling but pure es got gutted to hell
>>568868957It doesn't take any damage.
>>568869031where is your 10k SSF ES lil guppy?
quin just yolo slam this shit
>>568869097retard
does flicker still count as only 1 combo or does the martial artist node (Gain Combo from all Attack Hits) actually count every hit?
>>568867173Jonatron playested in personally on a 100 mirror tier LA DE last night. I watched personally. Skill issue
>on long hiatus from poe2>been playing d2 the past month>come back to poe2Why does it feel so bad to play now
>accuracy
>>568869139Fuck off, this is why this game is dead
>>568869054it's not good until later early on you want to use Arc and combo it with something
>>568869232Because nothing really changed since the last time you played.
>>568867173retardt. 0.1 2h mace titan sekhema farmer
>>568869097can you actually just post your whole build instead of whining about itjust record yourself and mouseover all your items and gems and post it
>>568869251I put that shit in the trashif you use your weapon to actually hit things you are playing this game wrong
>>568869370I'm just playing Steel's spark totems.

>>568869276retard
>>568869429so, no? shut the fuck up then
>>568869452All you retards whinging about endgame being lame are to blame for this.We could have gotten swords.Instead we got atlas 2.0. I hope you're enjoying your twister atlas gameplay or whatever class you're playing because you will be playing it for another six months.

HOW DO I DEAL WITH GETTING SWARMED BY MOBS
>>568869232What has changed so far in Poo2 the second: - Quest bloat- Power creep- 1 new act and 3 mni acts with MASSIVE ASS ZONES - 2 new classes, 5 new ascendancies, 1 new weapon typeWhat has not changed- game is still a fucking slog- poe1 mosnters vs poo2 exile- trials of suckmyass and cuckery still in the game. tota somehow still nott in ( expect a travesty )Conclussion: poo2 is le bad
>>568869614you gotta talk inside the island hideout
>>568869592I've been asking for a better campaign since the beginning. A true gamer knows it's always about the journey.
>>568869614sameI also can't disable the quest tracker
>>568869739Please stop asking for that.Poe2 was their attempt at improving poe1's campaign.I really don't want them to improve it any further.
>Cast spell>Roll>Repeat Ad infimum Does it get better the further along in the campaign
>don't worry guys, we might have taken out homos and multiple essences, the only 2 hedges against vision crafting that gave players SOME agency but we added new crafting mechanics to compensate >oh btw the new methods take the same spot as the essences so you can't use them together>oh and they're all "surpassing chance to gain a minion infusion when you start recharging ES" tier dogshit>my job here is done I'm going on vacation Does Zachary deserve to get jumped at Exilecon?
>>568867375Also if anyone asks, the reason is simple. It costs way more money to animate and maintain multiple different skeletons doing a particular attack animation than it does to design a new projectile model.
>>568869661I'll forgive all of this when they give me Templar. But to be honest, after revisiting d2, I just don't like the general azmeri themeAngels, demons, and humanity caught in the middle is a far superior vibe

Can a specter build skip minion gem levels?It doesn't seem to do much compared to how mandatory it is for skeletons or whatever.
>Waypoints>Sprint>Gimmicks that roundabout show you the wayAny bets on what else they will add just so they don't have to address the zones being too large?
>>568868840No you don't. Twister can be played from level one and only requires a decent spear, which is cheap as shit to get as leveling items if you play trade. Just buy a new one every 10 or so levels unless you craft a good one yourself.

Is poe2 the only arpg to lose players during the weekend? I've never seen this phenomena before, usually this is when games peak. What happened?
>>568870531https://pobb.in/LrcYqA3FzbJd, here retard. pobb.in seems buggy as fuck for POE2 so there's probably inaccuracies on there.
I gave PoE 2 another go, but got bored and quit halfway through the first Act. No it's not that I can't do it. I have done it many times over since 0.2. It's just so insanely slow and boring that I can't be arsed. Hope you're all having fun. I'll wait until 3.29 to play a real game.
>>568868943They have been giving away full armor sets for free for years at this point.
So hollow palm sucks by the time you get to maps now huh? It seems like everyone drops it in favor of an actual weapon

i feel legitimate confusion when i see people acually enjoying poe2.
....I should have picked martial artist instead of spirit shart, shouldn't I?
>>568871995it sucks if you can't get +2 amulet+3 is pretty comparable to a well crafted staff until you start hitting 74+ territory
>>568871920what the fuck are you doing lmao
>>568872179the reason poe works is because it isn't fun all the time. when a skinnerbox gives you everything you want the second you want it, you stop playing.
So uh is the new endgame good?
Not a troll question, I asked yesterday saying I wanted to eventually try flicker strike. I was told to pick merc and eventually gemling legionnaire would be the best path for it. I found a crossbow build to level with, is this going to be a good plan or did I get tricked? When can I actually play the build I want and make it work?
>>568872327seems fairly normal to me. but youre not meant to actually play the skill you want to play in the acts.
>>568872345I got the feeling from anons that it is the same
anyone wanna hook it up with a mb on mirage?
>>568872345I'm enjoying it so far
>>568872345What new endgame?
I miss an endless delve Event in poe1....
>>568872345it feels mostly the same you just have stuff to distract you now
>>568872469ok post ign
>>568872345nope
>>568871686Armor piercing rounds.
uh oh stinkypoo
>>568872345so far it's really cool. It is definitely way more involved with the story and NPCs. They are cooking with this map. Idk if it will be fun once Im back to just spamming maps though.
>>568872361Not tricked exactly but it'll be a while. Gemling is the king of 2 Flicker, certain other ascendancies are viable for it (like Deadeye, webm rel) but as of this league Gemling's the undisputed best - it makes Flicker's gem quality give it a chance to refund charges which is extremely useful since charges are the main difficulty in making Flicker work Your main problem is that it really wants a large currency investment especially with Gemling, and it might be a while before you have what you need to be able to comfortably Flicker. So yes the crossbow build is probably a good idea and you're on the right class if you want to end up playing Flicker.
Who best witch?Infernalist or Lich?
I’m really surprised how many people return every league. I had like 10 friends playing 0.1 and now I’m the only guy still doing it.
>walk through map watching monkey and bear kill everything>occasionally press runic parry and intentionally get hitthis is the trve arpg experience as the d2 necromancer intended
>trying to figure out how to unspec atlas points>realize you can't>realize it is designed so you are supposed to allocate every single node on every treewhat's the point
>>568872801Really? You played before the game was available to the general public?
I'm hard stuck in act 3 and it's 4am. I think I might as well quit the league at this point, I'm so far behind and I'm not having fun doing the acts at all.
Anyone tamed any bosses yet? How’s the damage?
>>568872593not on rn
Any good league mechanic farming spots where the mechanic spawns at the entrance of the instance? Any area level.
>>568872769Alright thanks, I don't mind if it takes a while it gives me a goal to push for. I do have a question about flicker because I've never used it and just got interested in it because it looks cool. Does it work against bosses as well or do I need a different skill to fight them? And will there eventually be guides for it because I haven't been able to find any yet and I'm too stupid to figure this game out on my own.
>>568872926why ask for a mb then
what build we trying in 0.5?i'm obviously out trying to catch em all, currently starting act 2 and using parry + fangs of frost (with harold of ice), + twister and this shit feels strong af so farcan't wait for me gang of beasts
>>568872894what
it would be really cool if all my uniques would stop dropping as shields
>>568873023spell totems baby. blasting through maps with mild clear and mild single target!
>>568870531So nothing, guessed so.
>>568873023im not even looking at new builds until Ive spent a week farming on my Shaman.
>>568873352LA Deadeye
So. Didn't they promise that ezomyte unique items would have foulborne modifiers, or am I getting something wrong?
>lvl 6what the fuck
>>568873247>there are people who don't try an entirely new archetype every characterside note just dropped picrel from the fire miniboss in madwun, time to absolutely shit on everything
>>568871469>Your visual clarity, sir
>>5688720241c
>>568872952To my knowledge most Flicker builds end up using Tempest Bell for bossing and if you have your bell(s) out while flickering it'll pingpong between the bell and the boss and Charged Staff will have each Flicker hitting both the bell and the boss along with your actual quarterstaff hitThere will be guides and you can use poeninja to check what other people running your build are doing but like 80% of the playerbase isn't even high enough to use Flicker yet
>>568873547it sold for 5c instantly :O
>>568873640yeah thats how currency inflation works also you probably got robbed lol
>>568873482I genuinely enjoy playing spectrres. I wouldn't even play another archetype if they actually made spectres good and POB could tell me which wands were better dps between phys vs ally dmg rolls.
>>568871941It's such a huge self report when people think anyone would quite poo2 over the difficulty kek
>>568771395>>568771483You jungle fucks should be beaten with hammers. Act 3 is still terrible, and I still have more than half of it to go. Fucking hell.
>>568873608>poeninja to check what other people running your build are doingI had no idea such a thing existed, this is really cool I found a high level player using exactly what I was going for. Thanks for the heads up.
I AM FUCKING PAPER I LITERALLY CANNOT STOP FUCKING DYING
>When you're SSF and freed from the trade madness
>>568874228Have fun bro, just remember to read and do comparisons before blindly copying, also its DPS numbers are never really accurateIt's super useful though, the heatmaps are fantastic for getting a broad view of how people are using certain skills
>>568868391anti-sprint is not anti-ruthlesssprint is just a bad workaround for bad design. this genre already solved this problem long time ago, but poe2 managed to make it feel like shit again to move around the map
>>568874372retard
i feel like i have so much fucking damage and i want more mana but my skillpoints do fuck all for my manaits just like... ok now i can allocate more int points....wow!!!!!!
Never understood the hate for the meme of "it gets good after xxx hours" until I played this game. They really need to fix the onboarding process, I can't get any friends to stick it out even to the end of the campaign let alone maps.
>>568873937That's usually the comeback people throw in my face. Oh you quit the game? Game must be too hard, eh?Clearly it's not. It's just tedious as fuck.
>>568873723i have to switch it up every time to try something new>tempest bell monk>poison pathfinder>wyvern druid>chaos blood mage>frost tornado/beastmaster huntressall different and fun in their own right, monk and druid focused on combos to ramp damage, poison was fun watching hp bars absolutely melt but was squishy, blood mage was nearly 100% crit chance and basically a one button screen clearing machine with chaos bolt and insane survivability with blood and mana remnants (with mana as a secondary life pool) but single target damage was kinda mid in comparison
>only saved 8 divvies up so farIt's already over for me
>>568854058So uhhh... Whatever happened to the "biggest patch in poop of excrement history"?
>>568874578nta but i don't consider 98% of characters using shield charge/leap slam/whirling blades and 100% of characters using frostblink to be particularly good design
where the fuck did my transmutes gowhy do they just never drop now
Died to Geonor when he was at 1HP
>>568874970OH NONONONONO POO2 SISTERS
>>568874924>Oh you don't want to run through zones the size of Australia, with the added spin this league that you have to find a rune within it, for the 20th time? You are just too much of a shitter it seems
Not hard just tedious
>>568874913I gave all of my codes away to people I played WoW with who didn't have one already. I even got 2 extra codes just by asking nice to customer service. Out of all the people I gave a code to I think 1 has continued playing every other league. People who already played PoE or aarpgs in general played, but the outside crowd didn't really get into it nor did they give it another chance after .1 and .2.
>>568874913I only just started maps and the amount of feature creep in endgame is already overwhelming
Is there even a point of grabbing all this Verisium?
>>568875008HE DIED TO CAMPAIGN
Did my first t15 in a hideout map
>>568875150My oldest friend made it to act 3 and asked me why he wasn't getting any good gear and never saw anything good from killing bosses. I told him about crafting and how most of the good drops are stuff that lets you make your own custom gear. That was back at launch, I haven't been able to convince him to play since. I think they really should rethink how gearing works in the early game. Just let good fun stuff drop until you get to maps and then teach the players about crafting for the endgame.
>>568875121>The morbidly obese, literal swamp hag gets to move like fucking Usain Bolt fused with Harry Houdini>Your character needs a solid 2 seconds to come to a stop from a medium speed jog How come?
>>568875150.2 being a lot of new players first introduction to the seasonal model was fucking hilarious. Welcome back everybody, no loot drops now and everything is a sponge.
>ignore the new ascendancies>Mace and Bear suck>fine, I'll play the Spirit Walker with Twisters>Troonathan Combo slop
the fuck is this dogshit>minions
>>568872894retard
yay or nay? i have a gut feeling that it'd be only worth it at -70%
>>568874913>Try to get friends to play PoE 1>None of them want to because it seems like there's too much stuff>PoE 2 EA releases>All of them play and have fun>Finally.jpg>0.2 league begins>Friends are all offline, ask if they want to come play>"Sorry anon, I didn't realize you have to play the campaign again it's way too long"
>>568859696>wake up>all streamtubers are dead>ritualist is still a dogshit boring ascendancy
>>568875627Bad for minions no es no spirit
>>568875661arguably worth it at FREE
Day 2 and act 2 completedI'm starting to feel like I should actually pay some attention to my gear and try to craft some better shit because god damn I feel like I fall over quick
>>568859696>He UNIRONICALLY thinks the pure steaming pile of dogshit classes would actually see play if we had 0 infoAll it takes is you accidentally stumbling upon Kelari Djinn, Twister or ice Shot to realize how dogshit everything else is in comparison.
>4ex staffTrade leeg is a joke bros.
>>568875961Jesus Christ
I know shield wall is bricked, but what about those resonating shield builds with bleed?
>>568875661I bought it today, I considered waiting until it's F2P (likely end of year) but didn't wanna bother with all the fucking runes and shit so I had to get coins to buy the tab anywaynot sure wtf to do with my remaining 111 coins tho, probably gonna buy a merchant tab since I just have two premiums and it feels like a mistake to convert one
>>568875961Probably meant to put 4 div and fucked up
so that means I can have ice twisters without making chilled ground?
I'm genuinely getting 0 joy out of this game anymore and I'm actually trying. I really don't get how people have fun playing this.
>>568876284It's artificial fun. GGG has successfully workified gaming with PoE 2 with the goal of making you feel like you're doing something valuable when you're just playing cashnado alert with bad combat.
>>568875905This but LS Spear/Ice Strike heralds/Spark/Constricting Command/LA Deadeye/Poisonburst Arrow/Lament BM
cool
Any new way of creating chilled ground for the frost Djinn to detonate?I don't like having to do frost bomb+nova, having the muster army is very gem slot intensive
>>568876505Yeah one of them just straight up gave me 3 div. Bought a new staff after that
>>568875661I would say it's worth it but you also need to remember you are getting half of MTX coins too
>>568876284I played witch when I first started and had an absolutely horrible timeThen I made a monk and had probably a better time than 95% of the time I spent in PoE1, now I'm playing bear druid and it's pretty good so far but I liked monk a fair bit moreshould've rolled MA after all
>>568872769>>568869146>does flicker still count as only 1 combo or does the martial artist node (Gain Combo from all Attack Hits) actually count every hit?nta but do you know if this works?
>doomers entirely reduced to kvetching and nitpicking
>>568876685It's been like this since 0.3
>>568876685doomers genuinely lost and it's not even funny
lol
Ghostwritgr gets 138 runic ward if you runeforge it
>>568875837You're almost always going to feel like paper in the Acts.Trying to build tank in Acts is a moumental waste of time.More damage will serve you far better.But if you really wanna beef up your defenses on the cheap...Cloak of Flame.
>>568876776There are actually 800k+ playing on the standalone client. I know this from an insider source so it's legit.
>>568876776296 this time yesterdaydoomgawds won bigly
dunno brosspiritwalker minionguy is kind of fucking boring
Is it just me or are there hardly any Tranny, Aug, and Alch drops this league? I feel like I'm constantly running low on them compared to before, it's making it difficult to roll maps.
>>568875661Don't you only get 150 points instead of 30 if you buy now? That's kinda gay.
>>568875404they probably need to either add tier drops earlier so shitters can actually get upgrades somewhat regularly or just squish the skill gems so you've got more stuff available faster
>>568877007What did you expect? It's literally a walking sim build.
>>568876156Definitely convert your premium. Premium is for hideout sales and all trades are async now. I prefer using standard tabs and 2 quads for dump tabs of uniques and materials. So 4 standard 2 quads gems maps currency and 3 pages of merchant feels just about right once you are 200 hours deep in a league. I kinda regret the deli tab and I wish they had a breach tab.
where are the big runething locations in act 4? i didn't run into any when i was full clearing it
>>568875961>Spell physicalHe probably doesn't know about plants or feels bad for plantsissies and is throwing you a bone.
>>568876284You simply aren't one of us. You can go do something else now. Bye.
>>568877024For me it's zero fucking support gems and I'm rolling in spirit gems
>>568876685
>>568877064No the game is fine as is. They're just noobs. It genuinely takes a long time and real experience to understand just how strong a god roll rare is. Everyone wants uniques to be expensive cause orange but it's just not like that. The expensive ones u have to target farm, which is frankly better. I love spamming xesht.
all of the dooming around shield wall nerfs was so overblown. it's still a really good build
>>568877245You gotta do the treasure map sidequest for the rune stuff in act 4 now.
>>568877586oh that is extremely gay. oh well
>>568877084dunnoi thought it would like also have good clearbut it doesnt and you get surround by mobs but you dont have anything to click
my starter is a flop so that's my league over for this time. is the next one 0.6 or 1.0? it's kind of insane how much hinges on having a good starter in this compared to poe1, wasted my whole weekend getting to act 4 lmao.
Remember when the game was a meme factory?
I have not been keeping up with buffs and nerfs. What's the new hotness and what makes it good? How are u guys liking you build so far? I've been okay with minions but it's the same problems as always and a bit slow if dependable.
>>568877726It still us but now we are the meme.
Female monk class when I'm tired of having shitty unarmed witch that can't beat act 4
>>568877705my leaguestart failed too. if i ever play POE2 again i will play whatever fub is playing and nothing else, ever.
>>568877705Nothing new until december when we might get swords to entice the normalfags who dropped it in 0.1 to give it one more shot.
>>568876284>>568876284I used to enjoy Mace but all the nerfs killed Mace entirely. Bear is way too slow and only really comes online at end game once you've spent several div. Even then it's a subpar build. I tried Twisters but it's so fucking boring. I don't know what to play, so I'm just sitting here bored out of my mind. How is Bleed these days?
>>568877943>>568877705Relax bros. Tri got u with the private league once the hype is dead after next weekend. FVRVVR FRVSH
>just got the tame beast skill gemoh bb here we go
>>568878051Try plant druid, it's good and straight forward and kind of unique graphically.
PooTwo
>>568878051Did they do anything to CoA Comet? I loved that shit I was planning on doing it again.
>>568872335bro doesn't know...
let's go
im freezing monsters with grip of winter but the combat frenzy buff isn't giving me any charges. im using storm wave if it matters
>>568877943Same desu
>>568874383that works in trade also though
which one is the merchant tab? i bought it twice and i dont think i got it
is poe1 pretty playable on controller yet? I'd just automate potions asap but the one button playstyles should work a lot better right?
>my league start is a flop>wtf i can't kill this campaign bosspoo1sissies get humiliated every single league start and i love it
Name one meme in PoE2. You won't because there is none.Memes are important because they are free "feels good man" ads for the game. How can a hyper ugly (and desu retardedly anti player) game like the firstDarksoul became hyper famous? Because of the " YOU DIED" meme.Memes are even more powerful than porn.
>>568878210nice haul
Is monk too strong? Like would it be better for the game if they made every class this good?
>>568878459it isnt in your stash. talk to the nigger to put stuff up for sale
>everyone I know whos in maps is grinding their fortress points>meanwhile the first thing I did was run over to abyss, where you can get all 35 points in like 25 maps and 3 automatically spawned boss fights>now I can grind my fortress points while printing money from abyssam i missing something or why is everyone doing that shiet when its so fast to max out a league mechanic
>>568878563Tub of shit.>>568878669Yes.
>>568878362It really is the best way to play. POE2 is not designed to allow people to play the builds think are cool. Copying Fub is just the best way to get to maps which is the only fun part of POE. I don't trust anyone who said they played a non-Fub build to maps easily.
>>568878421SSF removes the "temptation"
>>568878810some people aren't trash at the game
>>568878328i found the problem, hollow palm defaults to weapon set 2. my auras were on weapon set 1. i had been playing without buffs for like 3 acts what the fuck jonathan
just got some kind of weird reflect modifier when doing a runecraftinstantly deleted me through 2.5k mana and 1.1k health
>>568878563Every other username is something like EnormousCOC. We all love pillaging atziris juicy temple. Meaningful combat. Two campaigns, one shared endgame. 2 years of early access. "Free" game. You forgot to post your frog image btw.
where the fuck do you farm jawbones and shit in campaignhavent seen a single one
>>568878859I don't think skill can overcome a bad starter (which is 95%) of them. And even if it can, in POE1 this isn't an issue at all and a bad player will still get a sub 10 acts. In POE2 if you're bad the time scales up to like 35 hours minimum.
>>568878810It's because the game is just retardedly unbalanced and has been since 0.1.Half the skills are literally completely useless. The other half require all this setup to get to work, and then there's like 10 skills in the game that just do a fuckton of damage for absolutely no investment. And playing anything but those last skills is utterly retarded
>>568878731I didn't get that far yet but I will be focusing on temple and spamming straight line paths directly to atziri.
The endgame is definitely more fun with these lil objectives and mission.
>>568878731Bro this is a cazzy game now the vast majority of 8hr/day players are hardstuck at Tavakai at best. Nobody's doing map stuff til week 4.
>>568878810hard to go wrong with crossbows, my friend wanted a carry for abyssal lich and accidentally fucked up his dex so he couldn't even use twister here and I still nuked him>>568879037it's very, very fast to get all 35 points in a league mechanic compared to getting to a decent spot in the generic tree so it's well worth it to have actual profitable shit to do while you're grinding out the 300 points or whatever
>>568878974Lots of abyss by act 4 and interludes. But they are probably easier to buy. I got 2 jawbones in campaign but I skipped most of the abyss.
>>568879080poo2only's actually think this btw
>>568878810Spark / arc witch is dead simple. So are plants.
>>568879046Does it turn into the same old infinite atlas when the mini quests end
>>568879271Neither of these are viable builds. Maybe plants.
jamnra down i guess
>>568879387I did both of those last league they are fine retard. Plants scales exceptionally well if you are willing to do a 2 click build and water your own plants.
Plants are viable I did it last league but compared to actual good skills in the game why would you play that shit unless you hate yourself like me.
>>568879558Plants become tolerable late Act 2.
>>568879271arc or spark witch are not good builds wtf are you talking about.
btw if anyone is playing supporting fire tactician and you just want to keep puppet master stacks up you can spam the arsonist command
>>568879558It's a very easy transition for oracle shaman into any other build. 2md character with an ascendancy carry for inevitable crits at lvl 20 is fucking nuts. Then respec at 65 into w.e u want. I tried raxx's CoC build and kinda hated it with CoC. I was thinking about league starting it and skipping CoC to scale it another way but I never looked into it.
>>568879645Holy retard.
Where is the mark on hit support
>>568879558Just respec, retard. It's cheap as hell in poe2.
>>568879879A talisman or quarterstaff in weapon slot 2
>>568879175im not paying 5 ex when i have zero ex for a jewelry bone
>>568879872Show me proof you did a frictionless arc witch run and I'll concede. No trading.
Shit. Most of the posters here really suck at this game and never played 1, huh? I did not expect to be in the top 1% here as a 800 hr noob who doesn't craft but I guess it is what it is.
>>568856805Get some better gear and try again.
Use the same skill from campaign to endgame, is this what arpg players call peak?
>>568880396a lot of the people who are bad at 2 are from 1
>>568880401There's no reasonable way to do that and having to get better gear to beat an act 3 boss is fucking retarded and the only ARPG that expects you to do that is POE2
>>568880245But anon, arc spark has been the go to witch levelling build since forever. I did it on poe1 and poe2. The rank 1 build was BM spark last league. I'm not going to waste my time justifying myself to a dumb nigger.
Oh you're NOT SSF?....*blows smoke in your face* lower your voice when talking to me you nigger.
first time trying poo2, game is big shit, now I can leave and wait for real path of exile aka poe 1.
>>568880396im a poe1 player primarily and i think poe2 is absurdly fucking difficult (not a compiment, its asinine game design)
>>568880551>Chat isn't completely muted Idk how u can play like that.
>>568880551What do you mean "wait"? That indian abandonware is available right now
>five and a half hour act 1do poowunners REALLY
Is there a less AIDS way to generate power charges on Acolyte of Chayula that isn't Profane Ritual+Reaper's Invocation?
>>568880537nta but i seriously cannot imagine spark/arc being good in poe2, in a leaguestart context.
>he is a jingakh
>>568880840
the amount of people in this game filtered by the acts is unreasonable and something GGG should look at. i'm pretty confident less people get to maps in this than in poe1
ssftranny finished xer daily act now xhe's come to sperg out in /pooegg/
This was supposed to be the league that would streamline the endgame mechanics for new players and instead they made them the most obtuse shit imaginable. You need to drink the sap from the withered willow and then go back to this zone in A2 to unlock the recipe to combine the splinters into a boss invite and after you chase him in 7 connecting maps you unlock the ability to annoint your amulet.Not even mentioning the atlas bricking bugs.
Trade toddlers think they're "people"
https://poe2db.tw/us/DominionIs this a real notable or was it something that got removed?

>>568881089literally says its bad at acts in the negatives which a good league starter isnt allowed to be.
>>568881014>PoE is finally becoming RuneScape 4I'm so excited bros
I still haven’t heard of anything sick from the gemling special gem changes, has anyone discovered anything cool yet
>>568881046I think it's one of those that you can only anointIt's on the official website
No... OH SHITThat guy was rightI AM a jingakh.......
>poe 1 baby can't even clear campaign with spark LMFAO
im a poe1 player primarily and i dont think the game is very hard almost every boss in poe2 is just full of gotchas that will kill you on your first time if you arent very observant and otherwise everything is so telegraphed and slow that once you've figured out the gotcha you cant die as easilyi can consistently send a singular hcssf run every poe2 league, and while i do die in the campaign sometimes, it's usually one or two characters to get to 90+ and i'm not dying to the bosses in the campaign everreally the only sort of struggle a build might have is straight up running out of mana and mana flask chargesive killed arbiter 4 in hcssf and pinnacles are the only time where the boss pacing feels ok, but it ends up not mattering because it's so easy to get enough damage to nuke themi also like both games though so i dont really care, and i think the difference in gameplay between the two games is very overstated, i just dont know how people think this game is so hard
>>568881290maybe it's worse than we thoughtmaybe they're well-balanced
Damn that took a while
>>568881161If the rank 1 build isn't good enough for you that's fine.
is there a secret to the rune towers? some of them fill in with 1 rune, some with 2 or 3. Is it based on the number of monsters you kill nearby?
ngl I think the whole "bloat" or "too much stuff" is completely meaningless, you can just ignore the mechanics you don't want to do like you can in PoE 1
>>568881532precisely true, i'm already finding myself skipping ritual, alva, and breach in 0.5
>>568881290I was looking at them on Friday waiting for the patch. Flicker gets chance to not consume charges, Stampede gets 100% movement speed (but then you need to play maces). Those are the only 2 I remember.
>>568880779Lingering Illusion.
>>568881014I mean that's basically what's in the launch trailer.
>>568881409spark is zdps
>>568881486that doesnt mean shit. rank 1 on poe ninja trade just means rmt.
why the fuck do I need to reach act 4 to sell shit
>>568881585>less AIDS
>>568881634It's a test of strength.
>>568881414I play both games, or at least I try to play POE2 too, but find the 2nd game to be far too difficult. WIth no exaggeration I think beating the acts in POE2 is harder than doing most ubers in POE1.
>>568881619it's been consistently one of the easiest and comfiest league starters since 0.1 you fucking shitter lol
>>568881634because otherwise everyone would rmt twink loot on day 2.
>>568881750i am so sorry if zdps is comfy for you
>>568881515more runes = better drops, goes up with zone level
>>568881760You can still trade with your premium tabs but most people exclusively use async now.
My "Skull of the Titan" zone in act 2 is bricked and I can't actually summon farrow wtf do I do
>>568881750no it fucking hasn't. stop trying to force this shit.
>>568881912Idk come back later. I went back and did all that near the end of act 4.
I just want a female monk class
>the guy claiming it takes rmt to do dps on spark is the same guy who died to chimera for 20 minutes how do people this stupid manage to survive life
its fucking over poo sisters
>>568882113He's not that stupid.He's playing the insufferable retard who KNOWS he is right (but is obviously wrong).The purpose is to farm (You)s.He's been here for quite a few years now and has a pretty easy to notice tell.Frankfurt.
>>568881414>i just dont know how people think this game is so hardyou'd be surprised how fucking bad the average gamer is nowadays
>>568881743There is no way anybody actually believes this or types it being sincere. First 4 ssf acts I just pressed maul until boosted Slam was available and almost every boss just falls over. Got bored of bear and started playing bleed huntress and it was only slightly harder due to using parry. That is playing with absolute shit internet also.
im told the learning curve for this is crazy. if true, im really worried about making bad decisions on my character and being more or less locked into them long term if i fuck it up. How easy is it to change your guy if you dont like something you're doing/set it up wrong
>>568882113i have no idea what youre talking about, multiple people called your build dogshit. because it is.
>>568882631not very, POE is a game where you make one character and get gear for a better build
>>568882631there aren't really bad decisions in poe 2 unless you really really colossally fuck up your passive tree by doing something insanely retarded like just taking a bunch of attribute nodes around the tree and nothing else
>>568882631different build or ascendancy in the same class isn't a big deal, just grind any content you can do quickly for gold to respec. if you want to change class entirely, then you have to level from scratch, but you can use twink gear to make it faster.
>>568882631the cost of respeccing is trivial until you hit endgame at level 80+ and the passive tree is way simpler and boring and has wayyyyyy less character power in 2 compared to 1, it's basically just generic % increased damage and then your choice of armor/evasion/es for 80% of it. If you click things even vaguely useful to your build you can't brick.even with 0% increased damage I'm pretty sure a retardmaxx character with pure travel nodes could just buy 1 ex uniques to get like 350 spirit, equip a Threaded Light and Doedre's tenure, and still faceroll to red maps with +600% increased damage just from items
>>568880495how are you filtered by an act 3 boss. You have done something fundamentally wrong with your build if that is the case.
>>568882464Poe1 is way easier. Especially the campaign everything just falls over. My first time ever in poe1 every act boss was like 5 seconds maximum.
>>568881296Awesome thank you, because i couldnt find anything on it anywhere and it was driving me insane, wasn't aware they added anoint only notables.
>>568882930>>568882751poo2trannies unironically think this standard of design is good and that it's an improvement over poe1 like this btw
>>568882631Respecs are pretty cheap these days. You might fuck up and progress slowly, but they've made it so that there's very few real walls that you'd get hardstuck on. It's basically just the act bosses and trials that you'd have trouble with, and you can grind up to outstat them anyway.
>>568883081Seething tourist spotted, how many attempts did geonor take you lil bro?
>>568883081>tranniesFunny how poe 1 has more trans people playing it despite poe 2 having much larger playerbase
>>568882941I've posted my build, it's exactly copied from streamers (who also struggled to be fair).
>>568883081you get like 30 free respec points in poe 1 just doing the campaign, not to mention all the regret orbs that drop along the way.
anyone here play controller?I'm curious where people bind their pot, map, and portal buttons
>>568883337Portal LT + BMap Dpad DownPots Dpad left and rightRoll on BAbyss and Ritual I use keyboard and mouse because ground effects and controller sucks balls for trying to target dangerous stuff.
*killsteals u*
>>568882631just play with a build guide to get a hang of it in the beginning.
>>568882941tbf he's playing spell totem which was mostly untested and unproven. most people who are playing dont swap to it till much later
Removing the levers from the waterways and replacing them with squares to stand on is so soulless holy shit, GGG needs to stop listening to reddit bug men
what does the highlighted mod mean? It means it's crafted somehow?
>>568883718Yeah
how do i make whirling assault/staggering palm not do zdps because this is my worst transition into mapping as monk by faaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaar
This was an almost 15 minute fight too.
>>568883796so is it from runecrafting?
>>568883909How? Are you dogshit at the game or something?
>>568883909
>>568883581"Excuse me! He asked for no pickles."
>>568883930Probably i dunno the new crafts yet. You can try just searching 'jewel' in the currency shop and it should show all the crafts for it. God I hate the poe2 crafting shit so much.
Playing POE2 with a friend, we're in the same room, he's on 800 Ping, I'm on 40What the fuck is going on? We were playing it just fine last night.
I love my minion witch but she has a LOT of upkeep to pay attention to. I think I'm rolling an oracle plant druid. IT'S TIME TO GROW!
So can you no longer use multiple essence crafts on the same item?
>Varashta players are already in T15s killing 9 Rune 15 mod rare monsters with more HP than uberswhat the fuck bros why didnt you tell me it was this broken?
what does endgame rage sustain look like for shaman with rampage/walking calamity? right now i can use either for a solid 10 seconds or so, but the cast time is so long that i can see if i had to use it in maps i would probably just die mid cast
I think I hate PoE2's Flicker
>>568884115MaaaaaaaaaaanI wish magi didnt go to complete shit... I guess its my fault for reading a manga written by a woman...
I want to sex the big tiddy french streamer
>>568884115everyone been saying it bro, shit is gonna get gutted for the next league if not this one.
>>568883909Bosses should take 20-60 seconds, act bosses kike 3-5 minutes. Your weapon or your skills something is wrong.
where do you get simulacrum splinters from lol
>>568884391Weapon I can't fix. Skills are just copied from a build, doubt they're wrong.
>>568871268any pobs bro?i still dont have my cruel lab but dunno damage feels kind of ass and clear sucks kind of tooi see some ppl play with pack wolf thoguths?
Did they fix the bonestorm trick where you could move at full speed.
>>568884565YeahNo fun allowed.
>>568884456buy a weapon probably cost an exalt or two
>>568881912>>568882027The thing is I was already way past act 2, it still seems buggedI even get to the end of the vault and my character says something about Farrow which is an obvious spot for it to give the prompt to summon him, but it just doesn't show up
What's a fun build that requires more than 2 buttons but is still strong? Infernalist?
poo sisters, how do we feel about the game so far? Besides the added runic things I don't see whats different
>>568884685I did and it didn't fix anything. The build is just unplayably bad.
>>568854410yes you have to constantly autismmax your build if you don't want to get anally ravaged by white mobs :)
act4 today for sure
>>568884838Get to maps and u will see
anyone playing ice wolf on druid? i have been leveling using bear but the casting speed is just killing me literally and figuratively. wolf looks a lot snappier.
>>568884996I did all of 2 'n 3 today.Gonna chew some more of 4 before bed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NGpnFSr66h4port it with updated space shit to poe2
>still massive fuck off zones>still massive requirement just to movement skill that we'd get at level 4 in poe1>still massive fuck off zones in campaign that take a year and a half>still fucking zero ms>game balance is still utterly fucked>LE EPIC COMBO that fucking sucks ass when we have streamers 1 buttoning>slow and thoughtful gameplay just kidding play meta and blast everything anyway>literal GAME DESIGN 101 type shit that they keep failing for years
why can i only activate one of the rune things on each map, and the shittiest one each time?
Going on an adventure.See you in 30 minutes.
>>568883909holy shit dude you are so bad
Maybe I can just go to sleep and never wake up again..?
I won.
I am starting to regret leveling sorc. I barely finished act 4. More than sure I am going to be fucked by Azmadi.I need to press 7 buttons to finally start doing decent damage it's insane.
>>568883909You might not be a fit for this genre. Normally the shitpost would be "back to Diablo" but I'm pretty sure even D4 isn't dumbed down enough for that to work.
>>568885903should've gone disciple
>>568885886Bloody idiot. Dhalit cannot become a brahman just be complete the quest
so now that this failure of a poe2 update is over with, when we gettin the next poe1 league. new mechanic isnt rewarding in the slightest compared to the effort, atlas tree rework and new masters are half assd two parts of the same whole they already got right in poe1, still missing classes/ascendencies/weapons/ux options, kiss curse bullshit leans too much on curse, THE VISION has fucked poe2 and poe1 gets collateral damage due to time effort and resources being taken from it. fuck poe2
>>568885612okay they spawned on top of an expedition, I did the expedition and they disappeared
>>568883337you can also press and hold start or select for extra stuff.
I genuinely feel retarded because I have no clue how people are making whirling assault work. I'm full glass cannon damage, tried every combination of martial artist asc nodes, tried hollow palm and a decent +4 skill decent phys damage staff and this shit sucks even when I have mantra of destruction + staggering palm + charged staff up. The fuck am I missing here because this is like 1/10 as strong as every other monk build I've done
>Go to town>Suddenly, TEN THOUSAND ShadersJesus Christ, man.
Nade merc is fun
>>568886554if in doubt buy a better weapon.
>>568885664what is the red wheel thing
>>568886839rogue exiles
>>568885052Wolf is better played as a summoner/melee hybrid on an Oracle. If you play it as pure melee damage it is very mediocre.
Damn everyone here just likes to be a complaining bitch instead of being good.
slog of dogshit
>>568887043Complaining about complaining is still complaining, nigger.
>>568886745I'm only at t6 maps my nigger I don't have dosh for that. The damage is so bad that doubling it with a better weapon isn't gonna help. That's why I'm so confused, it's genuinely trash zdps but others seem to be doing fine. Tired of wasting my gold and uncuts respeccing and it still being zdps
finally got around to checking out some other people's builds and there are some really funny ones. obviously all of the spirit walker shit is based as hell but i'm really intrigued by the plague fortress titan i just saw.
>>568886554>>568886745You don't need a weapon I am killing yellow map bosses in 5 seconds with Hollow Palm Whirling Assault. You just need Lochtonial gloves so you can infinitely sustain 3 illusion Hollow Form. Press Rend in weapon set 2 every 10 seconds for 60% added damage as Lightning+20% Shock. Bells are a meme and do 0 damage.
>>568887043PoE1 has a lot of players who copy meta guides and think being able to clear most of the endgame means they're good, and when they get raped in 2 it's clearly the game's fault
theres definitely a mageblood in there right?
>>568887043oh yes, because spamming fucking tornados or using actually broken coded boss summons is soooooo good, this new update sucks and the league is shit
>Game server lost contact with the realm
>>568887291why are you here? it's saturday night bro do anything else but troll the general for a game you don't like
>>568887210I'm in t4s and I've found 4 div already.
>>568887430Well lucky you I have 0
>>568887371>Get dc'd>Log in>Inventory empty, map gone, items from my stash in inventory are gone, just lost +2 levels of map progressionT-thanks
>>568886554Charged Staff does fucking nothing for you unless it's consistently shocking, which it isn't unless you're investing heavily into lightning, which you shouldn't because most of your damage is probably phys
>>568887291what do you think is "good"
well what the fuck is the point then
>>568887417its called multitasking retard, i can complain about a shit game while playing a good game, just cause you cant says more about you then me
>>568887270damn nigga chill out. ur hurting the only poo won ers feelings!
Tubgun even said that twister was just a skill he liked and the big con is it's combo gameplay all the way through endgame. So of course everyone is going to copy the OP build then complain it's not 1 button.
>>568887556"You may only spend your money on shopkeepers you found before the end.""Also fuck you."
>>568887560you're a special guy anon
>>568887560>multitaskingposting here is not a "task"
>>568887263Got a pob/tree for this? Losing my mind here every build I've tried to get suggestions from is utter dogshit
>30s ApocalypseComfy time.
>>568887560You're not playing a good game (or any game) thoughever
>>568887617personally I'm not having trouble with the combos I'm having trouble with the eyecancer of my screen constantly being filled with ground effects, bright orange ascendency summons and multi-elemental twisters zooming around at 500mph
time to multitask cry in a bunch of general threads for games I don’t like!
>>568886931is the hybrid version actually good?
>>568887546anything that doesnt require multiple actions to deal with white mobs, anything that doesnt require you to do a ten step process to do worth while damage, any build where you arent rooted in place or reduced to 10% movespeed, any setup where when you push button you do damage without having to deal with builder/spender nonsense, A FUCKING LEAGUE MECHANIC THAT GIVES MORE THEN 3AGUMENTS IN GOD DAMN T15 MAPSi just want to zoom and blast, get a couple dozen or hundered divins, make a new blaster build, and call it quits after 100ish hours. iv put about 16 into this new update for poe2 an already done everything iv wanted to
>companion build is just a worse summonerDay wasted.
uhh....the endgame is kinda.. um.. its kinda the same? :/
>>568887617they can all change to what DM is doing, a literal 0-button build where he watches monke slam things.
>>568887982Its totally different, its been cut up into pieces and had a mockery of an atlas tree also cut up into two pieces with the masters therefore making the entire thing worse to balance it. do much better right?
>>568887905retard
>>568888107>>568888107>>568888107>>568888107
>>568887852If you aren't catching up on this week's anime while playing an actual good game while also posting on 4 different boards on cooldown you are NOT welcome here.
>>568888109d4 enjoyer
>>568888217you complained both about the 0 button boss summon build and combo gameplay, there's obviously nothing that would satisfy you.
its been 30 hours and i have 30 atlas points...
