>literally not a single good gemling buildJONATHAN!
Guys?
i only bought a couple..
>>569302729many are saying this
Should I store my wealth in exalts or chaos
I have no clue how to price items like thisdo I just slap it in for a div and be happy and ignore the possibility of it being worth more?>>569302879bro wrong general we just press M here
NeverSink rates the league 6.5/10
>>569302741>Check the retention %>Same with Dawn of the Hunt at 86.7%>Fate of the Vaal was 72.5%Man, what the fuck happened there?
new endgame quest lines are FUN
>>569302295anyone? I'm on the first map heading to the hive colony, and I can't do anything. ailith isn't there, I can't break the walls or find a way in between them, and I can't finish the map.
Is this any good I don't play elemental builds
>>569303263>no increased cast speedits garbage
>>569303147he's right for oncewhile fun, it's way too buggy and unpolished for anything higher
These mana mods really ruin everythingI wish they hadn’t removed multiple essences pre item so I could gamble on it removing the crap and leaving the good stuff. But it’s a shame.
where's the wombgift locker...cmon ggg the technology existed in 1so shitty..
>>569303149a bunch of people played during the free to play weekend
>playing campaign as a mace mercenary>having an absolute blast>get to the Sekhema trial in Act 2>final boss is impossible to beat because the "honor" meter hits zero if you get hit too many times, despite having tons of damage mitigation and healing in your bildOh. OH. So actually melee characters are just not allowed in PoE2 at all. I see. I thought everybody was complaining because they were kinda slow and not one-click screen clearing monsters, but I was wrong and it's actually just because the game hates them specifically.
>>569303452
what's a fun warrior build?
How do I get a high ele res roll on this?
>>569303832>fun warrior build
>>569303145it's the same mess as pricing megalomaniactoo many variants
NOOO WHY IS FUBGUN ON CROSSBOW GO BACK TO BOW YOU FUCKING NIGGER
>>569303546>macecucks got special honour resist buffs to make Sanctum easier for them>STILL can't do itlol
>>569303951???
>>569303881your best bet is a dextral necromancy omen + ancient rib and hope for the best
>0.5 is our biggest patch of all time
>>569303881desecrate with the reroll omen and then omen of light if you don't like the result.
>>5693041052sisters... we got RAPED...
>>569303546no point in bother with niggerkhema humilliation rytualtrialmeister is a gorillion times easier for meleethe problem is that it also kosts more if you want to fight the niggermeister
>>569304115I was worried this was gonna be the answer. I probably need to buy a better base if I'm gonna do that a bunch.
>multiple Expedition logbook areas/underground that give a lot of goldI have over 5 million what the hell am I supposed to even spend this on
>>569304268ancient ribs and omens aren't that expensive. Not worth the light omen though
I want to grope the witch's butt, try to run and die from a Despair+Essence Drain combo, just to be resurrected as a skeleton warrior. Then I'll do it again.
>>569304245He's in Act 2 and is complaining about Rattlecage lmao
Watching Hayama now actually trying to learn shit and putting together a proper build after just throwing shit on and strugglebussing for like 24 hours just to get to act 3 is very satisfying.
>>569302407He pops up a couple times. It was labeled as "emperor" so its still him
>>569304105now i feel bad for uninstalling poop 2 and booting up Diablo 4
>>569304457heres hoping izaro or the emperor shows up in act 6
>>569304318did they remove gambling?>>569304402grim, I thought he was talking about zarokh or the niggerskorpion
>>569304318
whys ranger so fucking cocky
>>569302407you are a year late
>>569304105Uh oh... Poo2bros...D4 won. China lost.
>>569303149Temple was obnoxious
>>569304648She does have a lot of cock in her
>Needed a waystone tab early in release because waystones dropped like candy>Waystone tab wasn't in the game yet>They finally add the waystone tab>But they also quad tap waystone drop ratesI finally made it to t15 maps and I have a grand total of 4 waystones between rank 10 and 14 stockpiled. For most of my prog I've had literally 1 waystone of the current tier I was pushing.
i am really liking this game but i made a witch and her voice lines are really corny like she's trying to make sure everyone knows how edgy and devious she is she needs correction
>>569304648I am too autistic to understand whatever the implications are
>>569303186Everyone is saying this
>>569304648she likes cock therefore she's cocky
how can you losers keep playing this 10 hours a day every day? it's so boring at the end game, the fortress quests to reach T16s is way too long
>>569304907dude
>>569304573>niggerskorpionNot that guy but I just met niggerskorp for the first time two days ago and I'm still seething about hte poison eating away at my honor
>>569304897Merc has the best lines IMO. I still chuckle about the>Well, that's creepy.line from the red vale.
So close and yet so far
>>569304648she really just fucking hates everything. no wonder she lives by herself in the woods.
is there any lore and story actually worth paying attention to or is it mostly just filler to get you from point A -> B?
>>569304897>she needs correctionthis is unironically what hinekora says to her in act 4 lol
>>569304873The current map tier system is completely arbitrary in shitter2
>>569305343I like Poe lore
>>569303832I'm liking two handed mace but I'm only in act 2 since it's my second character this league
>>569304502Very unlikely sadlyIzaro is dead and as of PoE1 A10 the Eternal Empire is in shambles with Sarn being mostly abandoned and polluted, and Clearfell is former Eternal territory that the Ezomytes reclaimed Malachai didn't have Doryani's nationalism/loyalty to Atziri so he had no qualms in fucking over his benefactors and then the Solaris+Lunaris cults wrecked what was left
>>569305517:(
>>569305343Depends on the character you pick
>>569304648Tomboy correction is needed
>>569305343there's some neat stuff if you played poe1, like during the bodak fight it's confirmed that the morrigan/catha/mhacha ARE Solaris/Lunaris/Viridi and not just similar gods, the Mhacha's tree literally gives you Viridi's Blessing when you stand on it
>>569305517Don't worry, Tangmazu will bring him back somehow.
I member wenn the ape boss was....hard
>>569305667>morrigan/catha/mhacha ARE Solaris/Lunaris/ViridiWhat the fuck??
when
Why are shaders not precompiled yet? What is the advantage here?
I want to use a channel spell and a shield to make use of block/parry.What would be a viable combination of skills?
Anyone happen to know what specific atlas content /atlas skillbuild I should focus to finally get some higher tier socket orbs? I have a feeling that it is to focus on breach and abyss since those you can manipulate towards currency rewards but it never hurts to ask if someone knows better.
>>569305343PoE has fairly complex and interesting lore but between shit removed from the game (original Breachlords, the fall of Oriath, The Last to Die, Kalandra) and most of it being out of focus, most of the playerbase doesn't give a shit. It's also deep into grimdark territory though 2 is less so.
>>569306181>Breach lore before Keepers
>pooe lorebiggest ick
>he is a jingakh
poo lore? more like anal vore.
>>569305927I mean statues look exactly like every other image of the goddesses.Solaris spearLunaris these funny crescent tonfas or whateverAnd mysterious 3rd one unless you are Huntress then she almost name drops her before getting stopped
>>569306462I did not know that wow neat
>>569306308It wasn't much but it's enough to know why Chayula is a problem
is this shit gonna go away at some point?ive completed that island
anyone know of a spectre that costs 22 spirit? need it for my muster support gem for my djinn
>>569305447I don't understand why they have to be so scarce, or why I can't just buy my current tier AND every lower tier from the vendor. I can't even take map mods into account because I only ever have one waystone, it's not like I have a choice.
I barely stomached the disgusting campaign this time... I don't think i can do it one more time for 1.0...
>>569306631You didn't complete the secret area.
>>569305927There is a major case of samefagging through PoE mythologySolaris and Lunaris were also Sione+Lani Hua and Solerai+Lundara
why do these runic ward rares take 0 damage
>>569306832but>swords
>>569306631You missed something, find Navali's coffin
>>569306931What if... there are no swords with 1.0?
how the fuck am i supposed to pricecheck this dogshit
>>5693070171c
>>569307017It's all ass anyway.
>have a really promising item with perfect suffixes on it>only has one prefix and it's useless>look up omen that lets me guarantee reroll only prefix>it costs 400 exaltsThis is why the crafting is so fucking dogshit in this game.The very few tools that give you any semblance of agency are completely unfeasible to use. Those omens should be fucking free.
Bought the game from sale and now ready to dive in. Which class/build blasts campaign fastest and is a decent league starter?
How do I reset the vaal temple? It's still low level shit with a horrible layout from the campaign and I'm in t15s now.
>>569307151>i want muh item editorz!!!1!
I'm gonna give the new league a try. Which of the two new ascendancies is best? Melee in this game is abysmal but the animal shit is pretty cringe. I'm guessing the only actual viable build is still LA deadeye like it has been since release?
>>569307151Pay up lil gup
>>569307081mhmm refutation is being pricescammed for no reason huh? 1c my ass
>>569302741Let's see it again in 2 weeks
This Bloodmage Ballcano build is fun and all, but it's definitely not worth the amount of times it brings the game's performance to a crawl. Thank god I swapped over to it early on day 1 because now a lot of the gear I was able to pick up for cheap is worth multiple divines for even the smallest of damage upgrades. Also it REALLY sucks if the thing you're trying to kill moves around even slightly faster than a brisk walk. Probably would've been happier if I'd just stuck with Abyss Lich Plants.
>>569306946>>569306901REEEEEEEE
>>569303546>if you get hit too many timesyou can dodge those hits ya know.
>>569307307>I'm guessing the only actual viable build is still LA deadeye like it has been since release?retardretardretard
Fix your fucking game
>>569307404Im already hyped for the next poe1 leagueComfy str stacking, bonkin, marauder type shi
supporting fire means the safest and most boring hive fortresses imaginable
Remember when poe2 was supposed to have intro sequences for every class
>>569307610hive fortresses are boring either way
>>569307935remember when you didn't cry like a bitch
>>569307935Remember when it was going to have interesting and new mechanics, and be an evolution of poe1 instead of elden roll slop?Pepperidge farm remembers
>>569307339only low level refutations are worth anything since it doesnt get much benefit from gem level. the lvl 20 skills are all 1ex
>>569305927>>569306918The whole reason you can't permanently kill gods is because Divinity is basically cementing yourself as a concept in the human mind, and any expression of those values feeds you, so every schizoposter is fueling Tangmazu even in cultures where he's called The Raven or The Trickster or whatever stupid bullshit the Karui call him.>>569307224Quarterstaff Monk is not THE fastest but is very strong, has good placement on the tree, has a lot of build flexibility, and is good for learning the game.>>569307307LA Deadeye has not been the best build in the game in any league. MA is the strongest ascendancy in the game in terms of sheer point value, SpW is more gimmicky but also probably the best Huntress ascendancy.
Morning poog
>>569308180>he whole reason you can't permanently kill gods is because Divinity is basically cementing yourself as a concept in the human mind,this is some final fantasy x shit
>>569308180>mfw Kitava comes back in Kitava League in POE2
>>569308123well these are 15 since im in t1s
Is there a specific expedition keyword for 10 rune remnants to spawn?
>>569302643i could only stomach 50 hours of poe1. thought it was TERRIBLE. i got 500 hours in poe2. poe2 is better.
>>569308329It's more like a mixture between Elder Scrolls (eternal recurrence, enforced mythological archetypes, gods manifesting differently based on culture despite being the same metaphysical entity) and 40k Daemons (gods gain strength by living rent free in your head as emotions)>>569308338Not until they make Smith good :^)
My character looks dope
>>569306918IDK if Solerai and Lundara were Solaris and Lunaris undercover or just their chosen (like how in poe1 you fight the champion of solaris and lunaris before actually fighting the god), since in the Maraketh tale they were only mortal Sekhemas and needed a big alliance of everyone in the vastiri including the Faridun to fight the abyssals.Maybe it's like Elder Scrolls rules and they mantled Solaris/Lunaris and got enough worship after returning the sun to the world and banishing the eternal winter after the cataclysm to become part of the existing sun/moon godhead concept
>"we added indicators for maps in campaign so you know where to go!">they showed this like it was a big ass deal>it was only for like 3 maps or soWHAT THE FUCK?
>>569308013Stfu rue
If I switch from oil barrage SW to companion SW (~200d budget) am I going to be disappointed
>>569308763>go to jungle camps>kill a rare>you get directions exactly where you want to goI can think of like 10 zones that would benefit from having one of these, especially in A2
>>569308621>All this "artistic" effort just for characters to look like they're wearing TBC quest gear
what are the best ways to scale bear damage in endgame? i am in rare maps and my damage feels okay but not "one shot each pack" good. similarly, on shaman, what nodes are good to look into swapping for a weapon swap setup to grab some increased duration for walking calamity?
>0.2: Dawn of the Hunt>0.3: Rise of the Abyssal>0.4: Fate of the Vaal>0.5: Return of the Ancients>1.0: Path of the Exile
>>569308980TBC quest gear was peak thoughbeit
>>569308980Isn't that great?
How are your challenges coming along? Done with the 300 maps yet?
>>569308621>descry on the hammerkool
>>569308295that's a man
>>569309038GOD DAMN
Can the wyvern make use of all the 3 elemental ailment support gems? Especially with those gloves that convert fire to cold?
hehe
is makoru "daughter" scorpion from poe1even though poe1 is set like 20? years before poe2
>>569309038>>1.0: Path of the Exile>the exiles from PoE 1 are still alive and have returned from decades in the atlas>Adds all missing PoE 1 classes>They violently kill all PoE 2 classes>All retarded vision aspects of PoE 2 are removed>Movement skills are added back in>The league is about finding the random PoE 2 exiles and killing them, betrayal style except we're the ones betraying them
>>569309279The scorpion from 1 is Shakari, Sin and Garukhan's daughter
>>569309038Path of Exile: Path of the Exile?
>>569309119not sure why they're so easy in PoE2 I could get the rest of these in an afternoon
Say hello to my SSF cannon fu CORRUPTION CORE. What do you think? How are the trathan cannons anyway compared to I guess bombard crossbows or whatever. I am using this cannon for oil grenade but crossbow is my weapon slot 2 basically. Speaking of oil grenade though, it says its damage can't be scaled up. How is that possible? Or rather, if your goal is to deal decent damage with oil grenade and setting it on fire, how do you scale it?
>>569309251based
and how do i get rid of this onewhen ive been to that place
>>569309451I'll pay you $10000 in BTC if you do them today.protip you can't because swift alloy is bugged and doesn't drop. :^)
>>569308691Actually, looking at the lore, for some reason I thought the Winter of the World was more recent than it was, I thought it happened after the Vaal cataclysm but before Malachai's, but it actually happened BEFORE the Vaal's.The mortal sisters Solerai and Lundara fought Kulemak and the Abyssals in the Winter of the World, and what allowed them to ascend to divinity as the Three Sisters was defeating Kulemak and ending it. Then, Viridi created the Viridian Wildwood as a shelter for the Azmeri as a refuge that would survive future Cataclysm (which is why the Azmeri are the only surviving culture not wiped out by the Vaal cataclysm and have continuity), and Solerai and Lundara would later become known to the Eternals and Azmeri as Solaris and Lunaris, and the Maji called them Morrigan/Catha/Mhacha.
>>569309601oh that's annoying but whatever I'll get them then
Jesuschrist shader cache having to be rebuilt every FUCKING time a map loads
>>569309451they are just to get newfags used to the concept
what bases are best to uses perfect essences of sorcery on?
>>569309279makoru is just tavakai's daughter whose teenage rebellion involved running away from their straw huts and canoes and fantasizing about sex with blonde blue-eyed kalguurans. Shakari is Garukhan's daughter with Sin, you kill her in PoE1 as a requirement to seal divinity again, and in PoE2 Sin's basically in a depression because Geonor rendered all your work in PoE1 irrelevant, so he wishes he'd just left his wife and kid alive even if they were crazy bitches
>>569309130lmao seething larry troon
>>569308295same energy
Anyone else using that kalguuran skill refutation? I am using it with super charge slam and it lets me safely flatten breaches when the rares show up. God damn this is a god send. It synergizes really well with super charge slammu
the loot in this is still tied to the waystone level?
>has regen shrine on it>continually can burrow to become invinciblebravo, jonathan
I made a mistake of not buy at least one more basic stash tab while it was on sale. Crazy that they give you just 4. At least round it up to 5.
I am surprised at how much shit I can get away with by having Parry in the toolset but winning the DPS race in the molten gold trench was not one of those things.
>>569310450Why did you post an image of ts_larry?
Acshually maybe this league is all rite after all.
>no delirium passive node named it was real in my mindggg used to be cool
finally jfc
if I want to make a ranged lightning spellcaster do I really have to go sorceress I don't want to play as a woman
0.5 failed because no heist
>die fighting a boss in maps>whole fucking area resets>mobs removed>I need to search for the boss area in that empty newly generated spaceWhy the fuck was this needed?
>>569310868druid?
>>569310868grown adult man scared of playing as a girl in a video game
>>569310868you can do gemling because the quality for some gems are good like +4 proj to spark but youre gonna start at the opposite side of the tree with zero spell damage nodes so have fun with that if you dont have leveling gear.alternatively go acolyte of chayula, shaman or oracle as well.
>>569310959he has one lightning spell... clearly sorceress was meant to be the lightning spellcaster even has an ascendancy around it>>569311056yes I am terrified and you may mock me for it
>Open Map>Get Distracted>Forget you opened a map>It Expires>RepeatSIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIP, Yep It's gaming time.
Did i undercut that lol
i literally cannot be assed playing ice nova sorc if you have to hit a white mob 6 times for it to freeze only to THEN spawn walls on it and then snap those walls just so you can do it all over again when you lose all infusions to some dogshit
Is there an alternative to trial of sekhema because I have skill issue getting my third set of points
>>569311108bro you can use ALL the normal spells with the druid. do you think you're locked into Primal or something?
>>569311293You can do chaos trials but everyone says (rightfully so) to just get relics to cheese sekhema because chaos is just as bad in terms of "randomly one shot by something" but you can't build around that in the same way you can here.
