>waystone tier 10 is fucking 9 exalts>my doryani only sells tier 14FUCKING JEWS I SHOULD HAVE STOCKED UP WHITES WHILE I HAD THE CHANCE
I NEED TO STOP CLICKING BUTTONS WITHOUT READING THEM. YOU CANNOT UNCLICK THEM. THERE IS NO PASSIVE RESET.>THERE IS NO WAY TO GO BACK TO LOWER TIER MAPS DORYANI ONLY SELLS T14 IF YOU ARE ON 15. IF YOU JUICE IT ALL UP ITS PERMA JUICED. CONSIDER THIS YOUR WARNING.softcuck moment
It's a deadeye's world, you're just living in it and eating the scraps
>>569151968my doryani only sells tier 1 :(
>>569152053hoard tens when you get the chance, don't buy a 15 and skip ahead like a retard(me)
How does this body armor look on a female character?
>>569151584>killing shit en masse and getting loot is the core fucking premise of these gamesNo it isn't, it wasn't the case in D2 it wasn't even the case in PoE 1 in the beginning, before Atlas of Worlds mapping was extremely rudimentary and not even close to ADHDfest it is now>following a linear tedious campaign over and over is not itself ever what made the genre popularOver and over again is how many times? Once? Maybe twice every 4 months?>Searching for map exits over and over in these horrendously shaped randomly generated maps is fucking CANCER.As opposed to searching for X monsters remaining over and over in same horrendously shaped randomly generated maps in the atlas thousands of times?
>>569152226if its cheap, ill buy one and model it on my tomboy brb
>>569152270>1 orb of annulmentnot worth, sorry
Wyvern gemling build for insane oil barrage uptime???
>>569152226
logboats are pretty fun. Integrating the old logbooks onto the random nodes and a boss to work towards on every section is good.
>>569152235>As opposed to searching for X monsters remaining over and over in same horrendously shaped randomly generated maps in the atlas thousands of times?NTA but it is different because in maps the goal is to kill mobs because they give XP and useful drops. For much of the campaign, the goal is just to walk to the next area. My characters usually strong enough that if I could teleport 5-10 zones higher level I would still be fine. That means that dead ends in the campaign are purely wasted time, but in maps at least dead ends have mobs that benefit me for killing them.
>>569152416HOLY FUCKING SEXOOOOOOOOO
genuine question because i hope its just a me / early endgame problem - but does anyone get excited for expeditions and runic stones? are you using your Verisium a lot? have the kalguraan gems changed your buildcraft substantially?random expedition chests and 6+ runes are reasonably rewarding i guess, but it doesn't feel that great. no more than opening any other box like abyss or strongboxes.same for ritual, delirium, vaal temple circles (idk about the temple itself). all kinda crap.kinda reminds me of... not sure what exact league maybe around Kalandra? when the best options was just to do Legion or anything that gave reward boxes because they nerfed mf and drops from mobs so much.
do you guys think PoE2 will get lancing steel ported overit was my favorite skill in PoE
Whats the companion zoo strat
>>569152172why hoard tens
>>569152585I have no used verisium or an alloy since act 1.My sexond map gave me 2 div off an expedition which was nice.The best since then was a couple perfect transmutes
>>569152712look up the trade market on how much they cost right now
>>569152416yyessssSSSSS DADDY LIKES
kinda over the season already
Did they nerf xp rates? I'm level 83, hovering around T11-12 maps and leveling feels way slower than usual.
>>569152585there will be an occasional juicy pillar but overall after clicking a lot of them I consider them worthless for SSFalmost none of the rewards are usable for ssf purposes, except for your standard runes we already had >>569152671I think we will get a bunch of fan favorites when sword arrive
>so many cucks playing monkey that the +1 rare modifier is like 6 annuls
>>569152934It's only anecdotal, but seems like everyone is feeling it.
>1.0>you now have to go through 2 extra acts every league before you reach endgameARPGs pretending anyone gives a shit about their story has been a disaster for the genre
>>569152585I skip the runestones unless they're 6+ runes, otherwise they're complete garbageI have about 16k verisium saved up after spending 8k on runes, I've stopped picking it up completely nowExpedition went from something I did every time it popped up last league, to something I consequently ignore, because it gives nothingThe new skills outside of Refutation just dont seem very useful, and having to give up a ton of defenses on your armour to be allowed to get the resource to use them is idioticThe only thing that seems relevant to farm to me (in SSF) is Essences and Abyss, because they give useful crafting materials, everything else is essentially the same as just hoping something useful drops.Ritual is also decent, but I haven't seen a good crafting omen in about fifty maps of rituals, so ehAbout ready to dip, just gotta do another 100~ maps for the atlas point challenge
Sisters? I thought it was just the free weekend numbers??
>recovered from a 10s abyss hang without crashingthats actually pretty impressive. my screenshot didn't come out and got corrupted and guess because the graphics driver was dying and rebooting.
idk what the fuck I should playI respecced my tac to gemling but I can't commit to anything
>>569153194witch hunter permafrost
>>569152416ZAMN but prayers for rain is still my fave
>lvl 89>71/311 atlas points
why would I use verisium? how often do I upgrade a piece of gear? why would I want ward on it if it detracts from the primary defensive stat I can scale?where is the verisium sink? I can buy runes sure, but how often am I using THAT many runes?not that often...and so I have thousands of the substance in my stash, unused, because there is nothing worth using it on, since Ward is a meme Am I going to gamble for super rare runes that give me less damage on my weapon than another greater iron? Probably not. the system is half-baked or maybe not matured yet, ward doesn't seem very important (yet), and refutation is certainly going to be nerfed, so building around it is dumb
>>569152526Fundamentally there is no difference between the campaign and atlas, you kill the same monsters on same maps, get the same loot and improve your character to get to harder monsters. You are playing the same game, doing exactly the same thing the gameplay is exactly the same.The only substantial difference is that atlas absolutely showers you with monsters and loot, which makes adhd monkey brain happy.
>>569153281>maps outside dont give you atlas pointswhat where they thinking?
>he is a jingakh

>>569152412does oil barrage consume all the charges at the start or does consume them bit by bit?rolling magama gets extra chains so that could be a thing too
>>569153331you don't play the gamemost builds don't truly come online till interlude or early maps
you are a pathetic loser
comparison is the thief of joy
Mirror pawg
>>569153487it consumes them bit by bit, so you can use something like red conduit armor for permanent charges while channeling
>>569153491So the problem is not the campaign but the fact that you don't start with completely decked out character? What the fuck is the point of playing then?
any good loot filter for metaslaves? I'm planning to sell shit to them since my rng kinda suck since league start never found any divs yet
>>569153150All Chinese bots.
I'm currently in the Interlude and I have only one Ascendancy line completed, is this normal?
>>569153629The issues people have with the campaign have been explained in detail many times in these threads. You can pretend to have not heard them all you want, but everywhere here knows you are just a mentally ill contrarian looking for a fight.If you don't like the game, go play something else.

>>569154576Twister and Grenades are both mechanically AWFUL.The only correct answer is bows unfortunately.

Which one is the best?
>>569154648>The most efficient way to play the campaign is to run past over half the mobs.If your goal is to get to the atlas asap sure, but by the same token the most efficient way to play atlas is to rush arbiter while ignoring most of the maps and mechanics. I imagine the majority of people who play PoE actually enjoy character progression, getting better loot, killing monster and bosses and general moment to moment gameplay, all of which happens in the campaign as well as atlas, otherwise I see no reason to even play the game. Speedrunning and metaslaving seems like an absolutely miserable thing to subject yourself to.
>>56915541420% for an Atziri Unique.
>>569154965Is flat damage ever better?
trying to upgrade my crossbow, at t14 maps. I do phys and cold but most of the cold just comes from skill conversionsFrom a damage perspective, what would I be prioritizing between:>%Physical>+physical to attacks>+to projectile skillsSo far I've not been able to get one that has all three and I've just been settling for the combo of additive physical and percent physical but I'm wondering if actually gem strength has a much bigger effect and I should be looking for that first instead
>>569155429the game for speedrunners is the idea of efficiency and minimizing wasted opportunity costs. its partly because in poe1 ggg hadn't realized they needed to give players proper reasons to do league mechanics during campaign, so it was almost always better to skip them.
Martial artist was really strong in acts and early end game but it feels like it’s falling off in late endgame. I’ve put about 20div into my build and it feels weaker than my 5div invoker from 0.4 at level 90 for both.
but does the monkey have to be so big and opaque?
>server lag microstutterthis is maddening
>>569155414atziri unique gamble
>>569155548IPD is the most important mod for martial weaponsadded phs is the second most important iirc no exceptions. in ssf weapon crafting consists of picking up white items, slamming them, then dropping them on the floor if they don't roll IPD as a prefix.
>>569155861hum, was hoping that skill ranks was some hidden tech to boost my damage but I guess you just can't go wrong with tons of physical damage
>>569155429Why are you still posting? Your opinion is objectively held by a tiny minority. Almost everyone does whatever they can to shorten the amount of time they spend held hostage by the campaign.What is your goal by posting this garbage? Do be acknowledged? Very well retard I acknowledge that you personally enjoy playing the campaign on repeat. Now stop trying to fuck it up for the rest of us.
>>569155697>the game for speedrunners is the idea of efficiency and minimizing wasted opportunity costs.I'd rather kill myself that minmax the way I play video games. You either enjoy it and keep playing or you don't. Everything else is a mental illness.
>want to try a new build>doesnt come online until level 84
Is gambling for items worth it? I have a couple million gold but I'm worried I'm going to run into one of those ventor strongboxes if I blow through it all.
bow bros?
do not buy and run maps above tier 10 until you complete both western and easten enigmas
>>569155801Makes me just not want to play at all, but the same time I keep coming back for like 1-2 hour blocks before it's just way too janky to continue. Makes me sad, just bought it for the sale, hoping it gets a bit smoother in the coming weeks/months.
slept on it and yeah i still think the game is garbageits worse in every single way compared to poe1
>>569156171winning
>>569156182Why?
>>569156121Crying because someone else wants to skip the campaign after having played it 10 times already is much more mentally ill.
>>569156123Grim Dawn has the same problem, I can't believe GGG has actively gone backwards and fallen into the same trap they did nowFUCK build-enabling uniques with a level requirement of like 90, so fucking stupid
>>569156220is it true then
>>569156250you get locked out of tier 10s unless you want to pay 9 exalts on trade market. and the bosses are quite difficult past tier 10s if you are not geared properly
This happened a few maps after I got the ritual passive to reduce defer costs, I wouldn't have had enough juice without it.
finally fucking found jadoand immediately benched him because uniques that don't come from boss tables are pretty much universally trash
>>569154965For minions never it seems but i like it its a chase mod
How do I keep my gorilla alive?He's thick, but he has no sustain and gets chipped down over many fights.
ez 5 div
>>569156338Sounds like a you problem. I got to t15 maps before both enigmas and never had problems with bosses or waystone sustainssfbtw
Melee sucks I should have made a spell caster again.
>>569156027skill ranks is more of a priority for spells because they don't have base weapon damage to multiply. often +skills on a weapon just gives me mana problems.
almost
>>569156594never ending story
>>569156123if only it were possible to level using a different build then respec. ah well. >>569156124good as a source of bases to slam, you're not normally going to get something that's already good.

If you're like me and clicked on the altar at the end of loathsome mire, got no reward, and left then you'd probably like to learn that your loot filter is filtering the double annointed amulet
>>569156440honestly it's amazing they give you Hilda first considering how good she is.
>>569156121it's not even fucking about min maxing. It's simply about getting to the part of the game you actually fucking enjoy and is what a majority of the people play the fucking games for. People play ARPG's for the mechanics, making interesting builds, and acquiring gear and loot to trade for it. None of that happens during the campaign. Not even the interesting builds part because you can't even adequately test it and know how it will scale.Your inability to understand this is fucking mindboggling. Did a friend get you into this game or some shit?
How to dodge this attack? It covers the entire screen
>poke my friend>he's complaining that his meta build damage isn't par as the other meta builds>wants to reroll for the 3rd time as wellI will never understand these people trying to turn this into a weird competitive game
>>569156887>People play ARPG's for the mechanics, making interesting builds, and acquiring gear and loot to trade for it. None of that happens during the campaign.Weird that the best ARPG is ONLY campaign then
>>569157056I believe there's a spot near the beast if you're zdps, but literally just kill her faster.
>FULLY UNCOCK YOUR FATLASwow a guide on how to run map and than run next map, I kneel gaming gods!
>>569156369what is it?
>>569156440extra lineage gems, exceptional items and cryptic keys are good for ssf. otherwise he's just a less good map jucier than doryani.
>>569156887Nigger, I already understood that you force yourself to play the game you don't enjoy, which I consider to be mental illness.>None of that happens during the campaign.Somehow it happens every time I play. I wonder how could that be? Oh yeah! It is because I actually like the game.
>>569157121>Weird that the best ARPG is ONLY campaign thenHey, Last Epoch has a pretty good endgame... You don't need to pretend you forgot it
>>569156582have you done t15 enigmas?
>watching rues streamhow much currency do i need to get to that level of oneshotting bosses and insta clear?
>>569156887bro stop. Your autism is so advanced you can't comprehend that people can actually enjoy the campaign and aren't in some autistic rat race to the endgame
TWO CAMPAIGNSZERO GAMES
>>56915735815d
>>569156887>mechanics, making interesting builds, and acquiring gear and loot to trade for itall of those things happen in the campaign, though...
>>569157469dang
>>569157197do you realize that things can be changed if players fucking ask for it? Or does everything have to be set in stone for you? things just happen around you and you have no idea how it happens it's just there.You can play the fucking campaign as many times as you fucking want but taking some fucking retarded pointless stance against other people wanting to skip that one part of the game they don't like just because you want to piss on the parade and be a argumentative faggot does nothing for anyone
>>569156338use your overseer tablets
>>569157121poe1 was better than d2 in 2013.
>can't do T10+ maps with my current gear>don't really want to invest because my build is going to fundamentally change at lvl 84 and I need my currency for that>T1-9 maps are basically giving negative expfml, why did they hide all the cool new abilities behind high level endgame gear?
>>569157676Do T7 maps
>got the doryani quest to defeat the immured fury>map has immured fury>complete map>no immured fury and it's now gone from the mapI've never seen a league with these many bugs. Two major quests now completely broken for me the other being Bodach boss
>>569157435>voluntarily start every introductory quest before finishing any of them>this is the game's fault btw
>>569157564You are an argumentative faggot who tries to convince yourself that you like the game you hate 80% of.
I wanted to post my build and ask for advice but POB sucks and doesn't support Stonefist
>>569157696It's gonna take me like a week to get to 84 doing that
How do I "enjoy the campaign"?
Playing slam titan rn, does anyone knows an efficient way to break armour? Shattering blow + increases to % armour feels like too much of an investment
?????i can't select any other maps
and of course the same map bug where the map node has no travel pointbug since 0.1 still not fixed
>>569157676>my build is going to fundamentally change at lvl 84oh really what build is that
>>569157909resonating shield served me well last league.
>>569157794>pretending this isn't what everyone's shit looked like on hitting endgamefuck off. it's a literal second fucking campaign just to add time because all modern devs understand is the correlation between hours played and mtx purchased.
>>569157989Twisted EmpyreanGonna switch to manastacking with EB, but since I'm a regular ass mace now putting on a bunch of mana/es gear is gonna do jackshit for my damage and I don't wanna invest in a high end physical mace when I'm gonna switch off it.
>>569157854do you love 100% of everything unconditionally in your life? if you don't you should kill yourself by your logic
>>569158338im playing with a friend who is casual and it is incalculable the difference these quests make to the feeling of knowing what youre meant to be doing
>>569157909mark for death on a mark that you won't trigger
>>569156338Thanks im printing exalts by bulk selling them, and hiding one for 1 div in the bulk. Ive made 12 div from the scam so far
>>569157892play as sorc and zoom in to check out all the different armor bases especially ES. she loves showing off her lovely little perkys.
>>569158427No I don't, but I do tend to do things I enjoy for the most part and not do things I don't enjoy. It's a very simple concept.
>>569158338they said themselves people need an excuse to stop playing, and reaching the end of a quest prompts that. the logic is that people can come back and do a different league's quests next league. but because all the content is new, players are sticking their dicks in every NPC who shows up in a map with no idea of how long its going to take to complete something.
>>569158793This still works even after all the changes they made to the trade tab?
>6 million HP on a random T15 mapAnd here I was thinking my damage would be enough for the endgame...
Are there any chill strats in PoE2? Something where 99% of your profit is from 1-3 currency items and is fairly stable Something like stacked deck farming or harvest farming in poe1I don't want to fucking craft I don't want to deal with 1000 bubblegum currency and I don't want to memorize which of the 50 different omens are pieces of crap and which are actually worth a damn
Quarterstaff with +5 skill level or +300 dps?
>>569158417above level 80 the xp margin is 8. so at 83 you are probably getting 80%+ xp running a tier 9 map. if you were to do this again from the outset it probably would have been better to level with shield wall because its so much easier to get a high armour shield than a high damage mace.
>>569157915oh it's just bugged and my inventory is raped until they fix it in a monthvery cool
>>569158906People still spam buy after finding a bunch, gotta hide it in the pack of properly priced ones, but its worked for me
I don't understand, how the fuck does this work?
How do I learn how to craft past finding blanks and trans/augmenting for a lucky affix
is the precursor refiner rippy?
>>569159082Yeah, I'm realizing. I thought maces were gonna be cheap because, you know, maces. I wasn't factoring in everyone and their mom wanting one as stat stick for their boss baby zoophilia builds.
>>569159196it gains charges over time and then spends them all when you use the spell to give it the big aoe
jesus christ
>>569159395Yeah but how does 0.2% of cast time mean?
I can't believe they changed the waterway levers to pressure platesthey're ruining the integrity of the game
I dont understand how to profit craft
>>569159719now the game can feel MY weight
>>569159301its just because its early in the league too. shield wall is disgusting, you just pick up/slam magic shields until one has +armour and slam them with essence of enhancement and you have a 1000+ armour shield. I'm currently stuck trying to kill arbiter of ash with twisters and a 290 dps spear in ssf.
>uniques can be disenchanted to 1 chance shard>a chance shard is worth a little more than an ex>you can buy low tier uniques that are 1 regal or 1 ex and then disenchant them for a slight profitcall me mr moneybags
>>569159719thank god the precursor fortresses still have those massive slow levers, imagine if they just had pressure plates too that would terrible haha
>>569159695the tooltip is probably fucked test it out in game
>>569153150>losing 50% after free weekendthis is a good thing
What the fuck did they do to hailstorm rounds? I remember it reloading like one round every 1 and a half second or something. Now the entire 42 rounds are loaded in like 3 seconds.
my friend wont play with me until they add paladin :(
Do you unlock them just by playing, or do you have to do something?
ssf leagues should be removed from the game
>>569159905get this guy a job on wall street
>>569160234trade leagues should be removed from the game*
>>569160164do the expeditions and you will find more of those runes for the guy to copy like he did in the campaign
>>569159032What character in poe has the saggiest breasts?
Is there any way to get a bunch of gold from trading or currency?
20% movement speed boots while leveling? oh yeah, it's moving slightly faster time.
Can someone explain to me why the map in regions I've already visited go blank after a while? I don't really know how it works.I open up all checkpoints, but then sometimes I travel back to the place and I have to walk around it all over again to open up the checkpoints.
>>569160234it'd be alight if the game was still dropping a dozen greater transmutes and augs every map.
gemling translated as gem-ojisan is kinda funny
>>569160070They tried to make it work. I tried playing it last league but the damage per bolt reloaded recently support didn't work and mirage deadeye's spawn with zero bolts so I gave up.
>>569154757>>569155016honestly crossbow with the ice frag combo is quite good early on if you're playing soloor pick up a talisman and play bear that's ezmode in act1 but you need some strength from somewhere
>>569160234players in trade league should only be allowed to fill half their item slots with gear they found, the rest must be with traded items. you should have to contribute to the economy.
There should be a way to speed up these atlas points without having to do arbiter.He's way too rippy on hardcore, I'm not touching him even if I'm at a point where I could probably melt his quest version
>>569160370it's to stop new players reaching content that's too difficult for them and just getting stuck. the idea is that if you die more or take too long you have to kill more monsters and get more xp and loot, so that you are always an appropriate power level for the content you've currently been able to reach.

>>569160370Zone instances only exist for a short time (like 10 minutes?) after you leave. Then they disappear and when you try to go back it gives you a fresh one with a new layout and new stuff in it. It's a hold over from how Diablo 2 worked online.You can force open a fresh zone by ctrl clicking on whatever you clicked on to enter there.
>>569160686the way to avoid opportunity cost is to just do the maps to path to the arbiter and the west and east guardians, then go out on the world map and progress the league mechanic trees instead. that way you avoid doing maps that you'll get the points for eventually anyway.
>>569161013>or take too longTL;DR: Every zone automatically resets if no player has entered in for a while.You can control+click doors to each zone to see if you have any open instances plus how long till they expire.
Using the monk's rune body just for resistance feels wrong
>>569161013No he misunderstood what you meant by 'maps' and is rambling about something else.
>>569161013if you're not in a zone it will reset after 15 minutes iirc. monsters in the zone you're in will always respawn if you die. but you should die less if you kill more monsters anyway. it means you get rewarded for playing through the campaign at your own pace especially first time.
Decided to take a break from leveling and help some newbs finish Trial of Chaos several times.Grabbed a few prizes of my own on the way through.

So lore wise, the endgame started out as visiting the past after the first cataclysm.Now it's evolved to be current day Wraeclast, implying we fail to stop the beast in Act 5/6 and cause a third cataclysm. The placeholder cinematic having it happen after the interludes will be removed, obviously.
>>56916099050% Increased isn't really enough to warrant jumping through that many fucking hoops.
>>569157358>>569157469the ring alone is 15 divvies I played it myself and ran out of defenses/dps in t13 because I didn't have the div printer or streamer rng or whatever
>>569160990take mind over matter and get hit :)maybe use the rune that kills your mana regen for ward regen
>>569161462>the endgame started out as visiting the past after the first cataclysm.no? we visited the past in the previous league but its only the vaal mechanic.
>>569161337And on that note, Bahlak the Sky Seer FUCKS holy shit.
>>569161739i think he's referring to time traveling in a3
>>569161094>>569161141>>569161230>>569161312So these areas I'm clearing when doing my missions are called "zones" and "maps"are a completely different thing? And "zones" reset after 15 minuets and I'll have to open it up all over again if I ever decide to backtrack? I wasn't really paying attention to my quests so I have to back to these zones and it's pretty annoying.
>>569161739before they added act 4 you would finish act 3 the second time and then take refuge in the past as the world blew up
>>569161861They're technically the same thing mechanically, but yes.Maps are a special semi-random single-area type of zone found only in the endgame, whereas zones in the Acts are interconnected.The distinction isn't super important.>pretty annoyingYeah, some quests aren't worth doing if ya wanna go fast, but you'll figure it out as ya go. For now, just try to clean up your quest log when possible to avoid backtracking.
>>569161527>>569157358>>569157469>>569157559streamers probably do get helped. they are marketing the game over launch weekend so doing content first prompts players to log on and helps keep the youtube clips and content promotion train going. if they could get stuck due to bad drops it would make the game look bad.
>PoE2>no "Oh shit!!!!!" moment
>>569161861There's not really a specific name for them. 'Maps' is just confusing because the poe 1 endgame mechanic involved itemised zones called 'maps'.
I'm running 60 fps but the game feels off, anyone else have this?

>>569161861"Zones" is more common because PoE1's endgame revolves around "Maps" and the Map Device. The equivalent items in 2 are called Waystones but generally speaking, people still divide the game into "acts" (story) and "maps" (endgame).Also yeah instances reset if you aren't in them for long enough. It's good practice to poke your head in and grab a Waypoint if you find an area before you're done with the current one or if the path splits. For example, if you find Ogham Farmlands' entrance before reaching Freythorn, grab the Farmlands Waypoint first and then double back to Freythorn so you don't risk the Hunting Grounds instance resetting.

>>569168016A ton of people don't even use their endgame build to level up, they use some other build until level 60 or whatever and then spend 100k gold to reset all of their passives and respec into the actual build.

>>569152585I only like them in expeditions. Outside of that the mechanic is too slow and impersonal. I don't understand what I'm fighting or why. It's just two waves of random weak magic mobs, like 6 in each wave. Then occasionally there'll be a scorpion that fucks me up.

It's kind of amazing that with 6 solid months of development, they never actually penciled in time near the end to have a QA guy go and play a fresh start from interludes to arbiters. So many of the issues they've had to fix (and could apparently fix immediately after discovering them) were happening consistently and would have been caught with literally any testing.Still the best PoE (1 or 2) patch ever though. Finally feels like a real sequel.
>>569168659what did anon mean by that
I tried making my own build with synergies, but in the end the one or two skills in the 5-6 I was using was just outperforming everything else by so far I ended up just spamming that one skill. And my investments are all for nothing basically.Time to quit.
>>569168016Two stage of the build"Leveling build""The build"At some point either during the campaign you have to go through before the endgame or after you get some specific items you want you redo your statlines from the leveling build to what you actually want.Each class has a couple subclasses that determine the identity of what you are playing which you get points for from in game trials that are separate from the main stat tree. Spirit Walker, as subclass of huntress, for example lets you capture and summon boss monsters but you can't really do that until halfway or more through the campaign so you need to do other things until then if you want to focus on that.

Newb here, in early maps for the first time.Should I even bother learning about crafting? Every time I click currency on a base item with 2 good stats I just waste the currency. Seems like a way better idea to just save currency for the trade market. Am I supposed to just click my currency on Maps to make them all yellow?

are there good/basic decent item crafting guides?My gear is kinda fucking dogshit and I'm not sure if it's more imposing to craft some basic gear or try to figure out a good trade search filter to buy them
>>569171792>But the game is just fake, there's no variety, just metacuck builds.that is true sort of but there's always bunch of strong builds that fly under the radar because they aren't getting streamer attentionbut doing the whole use 5 skills to deal damage on one mob is bait and leads to bad builds

>>569173408I dont follow minion players but i think Ghazzy is the go to guy for them. He made a spirit walker boss tamer build this league. Theres also mobalytics you can go to and just search minion and pick one you like from there
Guys I'm studying game design, what is a better mechanic to onboard new players? >it's called Robert Smith's 8th album of Disintegration and it looks like a blue rock identical to the other 150 in the game and it drops from essence mobs that spawned on top of an expedition on forest themed mapsvs>click your bench

>>569174031great
What i like to do is look around on Twitch and poe.ninja for builds I like the look of (on Twitch, I look for people with 50-100 views, find their char name from a level up, then look them up on ninja) and just shamelessly steal the build.I look for characters who leveled fairly slowly so I can get snapshots of their setup over time to get a better idea of what I'm aiming for.Someone who started just after day 2 started and hit level 70+ in a single day just isn't helpful.
>>569172491>or try to figure out a good trade search filterPlay SSF and learn the game instead.
>>569174412So perhaps you should provide the learning he is actively asking for so as to dissuade him from using trade, potentially helping secure another SSF player instead of pushing him away with an elitist douchebag reply?
I'm playing explosive shot and explosive grenade, it uses two weapon sets, one with a grenade crossbow and another crossbow for explosive shot. I've used the talent points for each slot.I've found a pretty gg grenade base that gives +5 proj gems. If I swap my explosive shot gem to weapon slot 1 (grenade base) tooltip goes up by about 60%. Should I only use the one weapon slot now?
>>569174412>learn the gameAka spent 100 hours farming for shit you could just buy to craft your own gear in minutes.I work and dont have time for ssf

>>569174176Uhm the bench trivializes the game onechudNow if you excuse me I have to buy a sugma jeweler's orb so I can upgrade my bossing skill to 8000% damage effectiveness
>>569174626Probably, yeah.You don't have to fix your trees though.Just unequip the second crossbow, then right click your weapon swap slots (the I and II above the slots).
>>569174626Yes, unless you absolutely need those weapon swap passives.I cleared all content using a single xbow in 2 leagues its not really necessary

>>569173602just don't wander aimlessly then. go left. my autism kicked in pretty hard and i had to stop playing duo with my buddy because he's just runs randomly around maps. pissed me off.

>dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slam dodge roll slamThis has been my life for past several hours now
the campaign is boring because there aren't meaningful decisions to be made. you're dirt poor throughout the campaign, there are no interesting drops, there's nothing to craft with, so you just grab 1-2 good affixes per item slot. they need to be more aggressive with campaign-level league mechanics. imagine doing 5-10 desecrations in act 2, not just 1. imagine getting 5x as many regal benches in act 3 and filling out all the affixes on your gear. the campaign would be slower, yes, but more interesting, because now you're doing the same kind of problem solving you get at end game.as soon as I get to maps, I start dropping interesting currency, chasing specific league mechanics, and generally feeling like it's actually worth my time to kill monsters. everything in the campaign is worthless garbage because I have no way of engaging with items beyond ID -> slam -> keep if 2 good mods otherwise vendor.
>>569159032Please respond I am getting no fucking loot my whole net worth is like 3 divs
Guys please explain delirium to me. I follow the fog, get to the map boss and kill it, and then nothing happens for delirium, and I get none of the liquid things. The delirium bar is still there, and eventually the timer appears and it goes away as if I failed it. Is something supposed to happen? Am I supposed to do something else?
>>569175945Snap Gemling has potential with cdr stacking
>>569176789Just Abyss. Can't get any more braindead than that.
How am I supposed to play anything else after playing Witch Hunter Grenades? It shits out damage, screen wide clear, and one of, if not the tankiest ascendancy in the game.
>>569175132I go right because it's the right way
Projections for 1.0 launch playercount?
talk about a glow up
>>569175945You guys always shit on Jonathan, but isn't Mark in charge of balancing? He's fucking terrible at his job and this league is the proof.
>>569177194One millie.
>>569177052Isn't like 80% of abyss drops gear? I don't wanna have to ID and price check shit
>>569177194People used to meme about one million, but I can see it happening at this point.
>finally reach maps>dying in a boss arena will wipe every content in the map aside from the boss itselfI see GGG is still being retarded about their map policy
>>569157892Pretend like you don't know there's more loot later on
>>569174412I usually do in PoO1 but was just planning to play free weekend so I just made a normal character
Fully delirious boss seems not worth. Basically takes me 5x the time to kill and drops don't seem worth.
>>569177530I have yet to see anyone mention how delirium is a good money maker. It seems awful now
>>569176361>5look at that 9 skill combo
>>569177334No. Just hide any gear drop. You're looking for raw currency and the jawbones and ribcages and shit. The skill tree facilitates this.
>>569176552str stack titan?
>>569174250I have plenty of currency to spend because I'm a jewish mastermind, I just fucking hate trying to balance buying a bunch of different items at once, especially since I don't know PoE2 at all
Is 2 hard to get into if I've never really played 1?
mobalytics have updated their .build downloads so that you get a .zip with every build variant and they're named properly ingame
>FUCK a panu islandwhat's a panu and where do i find them?
>>569177912Its easier to get into if you've never played 1.
How deep into map you have to go to see the hideout maps or is it just purely die roll where they end up?
What in the fuckshit is this? I thought Wisps/Essences were the only way to have a stack of mods like this.>>569177530Got 3 divs off deli bosses so far, but they were also empowered. But I agree it's not worth it, especially with how high the risk is.
I like when chat combos with the game
>>569177981Only got about this far in 1, but I picked up 2 while it was on sale this past weekend.
>>569177912POE1's campaign is so stupidly easy that it warps your perception of POE2 and you die the moment you leave town. They are quite distinct games in their own right.
>>569178069>name hiddenwe all know you wrote that in the chat yourself
>>569178109Yeah thats fine, you'll be fine. Just dont play warrior.
ggg are cowards for letting you roll through enemies
>>569177737Thanks bro so basically I just Ulamanmaxx
>>569178356They suck, don't they?
>>569178396I think that's how it works, yeah. You will get enough skill points to pick everything up on the atlas skill tree.
>>569178405No they don't actually. Warrior is quite a strong class. But since you're new you'd be inclined to follow GGG's suggestion for the class, which is using maces and those do suck.
>>569178395you can't roll through them; rolling gives you a 1 pixel hitbox that can path around them, but overlapping enemies can block youit was one of the very early discussions jonathon was having on release when r*ddit started shitting themselves
>>569178395mhm
>>569178237you don't play merc or you would know the green line is merc's line, so my name ends in 'o'
>>569176790So not a single soul browsing /poeg/ knows how delirium works? PLEASE RESPOND.
>>569178623Have they added in two handed swords/halberds? Not sure which weapons they haven't added yet.
>>569176790They forgot to add rewards to delirium this time aroundSometimes a monster will drop a low tier emotion and that's about it
>>569175023That was posted earlier did you both steal it from reddit or something?
>>569178736and your second account?
is plasma shot viable for merc? any build you guys know that can run it or that it's built around it?
>>569175945When there's obvious outliers, people tend to do the same shit.For example, you see almost all monkey over Sky Seer because Sky Seer, while he has nuts damage and coverage, also has mediocre AI and his ball lightning attack has an unscalable almost 5 second windup (even though poe2db says it's 1s cast time) before it casts and it's slow as shit, but he casts at range. He's also horrible on narrow corridors. Monkey just does everything better and has mad damage multis and huge AoE.Similar for support gems on monkey and Varashta, 95%+ of them are gonna run Muster because it gives you 35%+ More damage (100% uptime) just for running a few shitty minions instead of some shitty spirit buff that does almost nothing for you.Don't blame the players for avoiding bad support gems. Blame the developer for refusing to make most support gems good and interesting.
>>569178770Delirium spawns glass shards while you follow the fog, shards spawn encounters, encounters can drop oils, the more shard encounters you clear the better the loot the boss drops. Once the boss is killed the encounter is basically done, even if the timer keeps going. So you're inclined to follow the fog, rush the shard encounters to the boss while ignoring everything else and then quickly kill the boss. It's high risk high reward, since dying to the boss which gets omegajuiced by deli will remove all other loot from the map. It's basically for the toppest of tier builds.
>>569176789>my whole net worth is like 3 divsHow? I play a couple hours a day and im making 3 div every day by just selling random shit that drops and converting it to divs.Do you just have a tab full of runes you will never use?
Ground loot is real
>>569176790delirium no longer drops any rewards at the end. it drops emotions from deli mobs, and stepping on the shards will sometimes juice your emotion drops, but there's no swoosh of loot at the endemotions are way more expensive than any other league currency because everyone is too retarded to understand this btw

Maaaan I just noticed that if you have Staggering palm buff up you can get power charges from culling but other triggers like blazing critical and thrill of the kill struggle to happen because the bells get hit by the staggerings shock wave before the palm or something.Very annoying.

Does using an Abyss tablet on a node with an Abyss on it add more Abysses?

I think deli just gives them a boost to rarity/quant or whatever, so you probably need to further spec into bossing with Hilda or something, further increasing the risk, to get the most out of it.
>>569162891maybe? we need to test it!
Wrd which mechanics give which items?
what's the penalty for being over gem encumbered?
>>569182170>uhm sweetie exalts weren't common streamers told me that...and...uh...no YOU haven't played 0.1!it's funny because I know I played 0.1 and you know you didn't but you're going to keep acting like you did to try and lie to other posters starting from act 2 you were exalting your shit constantly
>Equip quarterstaff with +20% critical bonus>Get something like more 100% bonusWhat? Huh?
>>569182194Because it feels like such a stupid way to lose it. I thought Asala would say something so I clicked her and looked away for a second for ping. So stupid.
>>569182608One of them won't work
Ok, it took me 15 hours to begin every mechanic (reach respective hub). Fuck ritual was far away.
>>569181976I have to say they 100% nailed the feel of a bearYou have some control but not too much, you feel like a real force of nature, idk its just fkin awesome im looking forward to scaling this

I can't believe I stopped playing pd2 for this slop
>>569182661Except you're literally not losing anything
>>569182627it's +24%meaning it's increased by your increased crit damage bonus so if you have 100% inc crit damage it's +48% in the end
>>569182627Crit damage bonus on weap is different from PoE 1It adds it to your base crit bonus rather than increasing it like 99% of other crit damage bonus sources in the game (theres a few exceptions that work the same as weap crit damage bonus)So if you have 500% increased crit damage bonus, and 100% base crit damage multi, your final multiplier is 6*1+1 = 7If you have 20% crit damage bonus on the weapon, its 6*1,2+1 = 8,2
>>569181534It is genuinely gross that 2rists think that ARPGs haven't been like that since 2 decades ago.
Predictably Reddit has started its whine campaign to get respecs added to atlas.GGG will cave like they always do, and it'll probably be made cheap enough that remove any feeling of choice or consequence from the system, so unfortunately this is probably the most interesting it will ever be. Enjoy it (if you don't get fucked over by bugs)
Man I feel so fucking squishy as a monk. I'm killing things fast, but got forbid enything touches me. I have like 1.1k life, 1.6k es and 42% evade, and no idea what I should be upgrading.
>>569183071>>569183148ThanksDamn, I thought it was just straightforward additive, but it’s way better than I thought. Is this stat available anywhere else apart from weapons?

>>569183243Who even cares if you get all the points eventuallyTwoggers are so insecure about the perceived "difficulty" of their screen clutter simulator, jfc
>>569183375There's a passive point (Sundering)+25% to critical damage bonus against stunned enemiesTheres a few other sources i know because i was curious about this myself before but i cant come up with any other than this passive point
>>569179287They had the perfect opportunity to remove damage on support gems entirely and they squandered it. I don't know why GGG does this sort of thing so often, casually give the playerbase something they won't be able to easily take back. It's the same with infinite master respecs and arbiter unlocking atlas points and stuff, that should be things you add in 1.0 after you see what people complain about. There's no reason to just give your players convenience and power before they beg for it. They'll always ask for more convenience and more power and your job is to keep it from them so the game can have some semblance of balance.
what the fuck does the soul eater mod do on abyss monsters? I just fought a rare with that mod and it was one tapping me through like 9k effective health and I basically tickled its balls with my attacks

>>569182748>all rare drops are good for your buildyou got excited for your es rare drop on your es build because it was usable/exaltable without a regal and the bad luck protection was disenchanting the shitty bases like off-build weapons you found in the meantime to build towards a guaranteed yellow on a good base. I need to explain this concept to you because you didn't play 0.1.>>569182932>nuh uhwhy even bother responding, tradie?
>>569180773I can't cast this for whatever reason. It just won't let me.
>good quarterstaves (not great, just good) are 40div+fuck this
>>569183183And now there are tons of mobile idle RPGs for you grandpas that just want to drool over a game that plays itself for you and gives you items.
>>569183576I see it now. It’s +x% increased chance rather than just an x% increased chance.
>>569183672Ive got plenty of divs already that i farmed on my league start. I was pretty sure you could olroths legacy this weapon, couldnt you? Im actually leveling a titan right now that has the same effect as that unique
>>569183148Fucking no wonder crit stacking is so strong. God, I absolutely despise the people who make games.
Why this thing won't fucking die
>>569184006you need to find and kill it's minions
anyone watching the playstation ting?hoping for poe2 ting
>>569183934I have no clue what olroths legacy is, this is my first league> Im actually leveling a titan right now that has the same effect as that uniquesomeone was talking about trying to stagger the effects by slamming with a different weapon first then swapping but I don't know what the result wasI can't imagine they're stupid enough to let them stack but you never know
>>569183635Infinitely scales monsters strength and defenses based on how many monsters you’ve killed in the level. If you see one towards the end of a map it can be numerically the strongest thing in the entire game, and the counterplay is to run away from them. Idk why it’s still in the game.
>>569184006Bunch of Runic Ward?
>>569183616They had no trouble taking away so much player power that it permanently fucked everything in PoE1 back in Expedition.They even promised not to do "just damage" supports REPEATEDLY in the leadup to PoE2's dev life before 0.1 dropped.And like everything else, they fucked it up.
I've never done a bleed build before, should I be getting more attack speed if I want to do more with bleed? using rake + bloodhuntmy basic attack time is 0.24s
>>569183856Basically every affix on your weapon, is on some way a potential ~20-30% multiplicative bonusEvery single one, except flat which is just the only thing you basically exclusively get from weapon>gain as mods (taper off if you have too many other sources but still)>+to crit damage bonus>+ to crit chance>multiplicative attack speed>+level to skills Thats why mirror weapons are just beyooooond so much better than anything else in this game, its just multiplicative on multiplicative

>>569184386back to d4 lil gup
Is there really no other way to repeat the Aberration fight besides just spam spawning Logbooks until Olroth pops up? And all the other expedition bosses are literal wastes of time? You need to be alch-and-going the logbook maps, too, because their guaranteed expeditions can spawn a guaranteed olroth logbook if you're giga lucky.What the fuck is this league mechanic?
>>569184123Olroths legacy is a new high end rune, that lets you extract an effect from select uniques (i believe the one you posted is one of them) and put it on another weapon. So if you want the ancestral boost effect you can use the rune aswell. But thats pretty expensive last i checked
>>569184386Took you that long to notice?
>>569183753That's a lot of words to say "please stop raping me I only just got maps :("
how are you all niggers doing t16s and hard content when all playerbase are still finishing the campaign? I'm at xii red maps and my boomer hands are hurting, I have to stop for the day
>>569184234You attack 4 times per second? That's more than enough.You do want a decent amount of attack speed on a DoT build because 1. Your hit damage is still a decent amount of your DPS and 2. More attack speed ensures you'll apply a DoT closer to your maximum damage roll, which can be like a 20-30% damage boost over the average. In general if you see an attack speed mod, just halve the number in your head and decide from there if it's worth it. 5 points to get 20% (10%) attack speed, maybe not. 1 point to get 15% (7.5%), probably good.
>>5691845253 days isnt long
>>569184908Do you have a job?
>>569184461I don't get this angle when poe2 is 10000x closer to D4 than poe1Sprinting, rolling, generator/spender combat, dodshit uniques, low build options and variety, it's basically just a marginally upgraded version of it
Protipp for beginnres, getting a high rolled adorned is an extremely easy way to scale literally every build.
FIX YOUR FUCKING GAME WHY ARE THERE SO MANY BUGSYOU HAD 6 MONTHS
>>569185009didn't read, go back to d4
>>569185159They spent 6 months making those bugs you better appreciate them.
>>569185181>didn't readOh yeah that's another way that poe2 is way closer to D4 than poe1
>>569185395back to d4
/our girl/ smokie_777 doesn't play poo2, so it must be a bad game
im bored af with my spirit tamer build any suggestions for a different build to check out thats a bit more engaging or is poe2 not for me?

>>569185431lol
do you guys throw 4 mods on every map you do or what>>569185159they’ve added so many more bugs than they’ve fixed, maybe 10x
>>569185575poo2 is a funny game where the good builds are also the boring/one shot builds while the bad builds also require you to play the pianoanyway, djinns

>>569186083>>569186760poe 2 does have a serious loot problem. you can play a character for like 40-50 hours and not see any good ground loot, just slowly acquiring currency to eventually buy someone else’s. it’s surely intentional but it’s gay as hell.

snipe is fun
Ill admit this is a weird criticism since poe1 also has a similar issue I supposeBut the relative difference in map bosses is really weird. like one map youll get hillock or whatever with 1 slam thats telegraphed for 5 secondsthen on digsite youll get sirius at home or god forbid you get that azmeri spirit chick with like 50 mechanics that fills the entire arena with shit.
>10:10 for divs on playerauctionserm
>>569187050i know poe1 players have crippling autism and don't understand things being the same but different, but it is what it is.
Just bumped a skill I was using from level 17 to 24.Will I notice an improvement? :^)
>>569186985actually?fuck me
>>569187674>~70% more damageDepends how much you were doing before
>>569187541its giga fun and comfy when it hits it hits
Post you are main skill. How much damage are you guys doing?
The new endgame is actually amazing
genshin collab that replaces ranger with Ganyu for kino ice shot builds when?
>>569187673>Sprinting>Rolling>Generator/spender>sounds like poe1You are making a fool of yourself
if you play trade and all you did is follow a streamer build you are not playing the game, you're just a tool
>>569187812I wish I knew lmao
>>569182297heist is coming?
>>569187696Witch and Sorc are also the same VA, also Gianna from POE1 HeistDuelist is going to have the Merc VA and so on, POE2 alt classes are all alternate versions of the same person

>>569187959poe2 NEEDS this, also cute catgirl to pick up currency
>come back after 0.3>game is piss easywhat happened to the VISION lads? I enjoyed the challenge and combat, why are they making another poe1 with 3 builds that everyone uses 1 shotting everything?
>>569188170I wish it worked but it just doesnt show the info.
>>569187541meanwhile me building 6 power charges + mantra of chaos + falling thunder and it's a 50/50 chance it won't do any damagei dont really get it sometimes it just doesn't hit at all
Welp finally got to equip Twisted Empyrean and it's fucking garbo. At least at the budget level I'm able to put into it, which is only around 4k mana. Thought the huge amount of flat damage would lead to at least somewhat of a net damage increase, but the loss of +skill level actually turned into a net loss. And with no longer being able to use Ancestral Cry I basically lost all my boss burst ability, because the inbuilt glory skill absolutely ain't it.Time to reroll. Feel like casting shit now. Maybe that volcano build I've seen.
>>569188206>poe1 sprinting is done with a quicksilver flaskI didn't think it was possible to see twosisters more gaped than in 0.2
>>569188358>Flasks store different amount of charges and spend different amount per sip depending on flask type.so you GENERATE charges for your quicksilver flask, and then you SPEND those charges. so tell me again why that isn't a generator spender.. and then you can tell me how warcries work, and vaal skills. and i'm sorry, just saying "you can automate everything in poe1 now" doesn't negate from the core mechanic of the skill/item.
>abyss meta againbweh... why do we have 6 endgame mechanics if one of them is significantly more important and rewarding than the others?
>ex hit fucking minions
>>569188819Generator/Spender talks about skills unless you're daft enough to think that using mana is now Generator/Spender
missed out on ritualfagging is it over for me?
>>569188587Because they tried making it "hard" in 0.2, realized they had no idea how to make that kind of game, and gave up. People will blame the players complaining but it was legitimately just dogshit gameplay that they came up with and they didn't know how to iterate in that direction any more.
To all the doomers who still don't get it. PoE2 is fun to play, PoE isn't. Hope that helps.

>>569189854most people became aware of generator spender because diablo 4 had basic skills like spark that generate mana every enemy you hit, you then spend that mana on more powerful skills. poe1 is full of generator spenders, it always has been. anyone who played old poe remembers the cwdt enduring cry immortal call nerf. >cwdt procs enduring cry to generate endurance charges, the charges automatically get spent to enhance immortal call.idk what you tell you sister, but if you ever wondered why warcries aren't spells or attacks, that is the reason.
infernal legion is dead now right? no ones gonna use this?

holy shit monk upgrades are so expensive, feels like everything is an order of magnitude higher, stuff that should be 10ex is 10div
I thought PoE 2 was supposed to be more than 1 button gaming. Why are 70% of the top performing builds 1 button?
