comparison is the thief of joy
So what build are you playing?
>>574870159The real bait is early progression bossing. I predict 100,000 people will say quest eater/exarch are impossible because they're playing full aurabot and their merc dies even with your purity of elements buffing him. Meanwhile phys DoT elementalist can 2-stone with 1c gear and zero thought in 1/5th the time.
>>574870705I going with something fresh and interesting, Im going to play slayer.
>>574870705the usual
>>574870705Champ corrupting cry into bloodbanner
>>574870705I'd like to play luminary mercHow b8 is it going to be though against bosses?I don't know what else to play, typically do minion something since RSI is so bad
>>574870705WORBWORBWORB
>>574870705str stacker jugg
>>574870789See that's what I'm worried about>>574870828What's the usual?
>>574870705jugg stacker jugg
>>574870906Looks like bait, needs a few mirror to get it started (and not be janky).
>>574870397Slayer being an ascendancy with pure upside that provides a strong mixture of offense and defense actually makes the PoE2 shit blood in rage.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vq-ui0FGZxEeven ziz is on the sluc scion train wtf?
Why did GGG join the extraction shooter bandwagon? Didn't they see what happened to marathon
>>574870705Crackling Lance Archmage Hiero (as if there is another mana class).If CL is bad after it got more cast speed, more damage effectiveness, more flat, and more damage per intensity then it will never be good. It certainly got some of the biggest buffs in the patch. If it is still bad then I'll just swap CL to something else and probably be fine.
>>574871052i buy the strength gear, buy the crown of eyes and deal damage
>>574870705BoC trickster
>>574871169We already had a battle royale mode and also heist has extraction shooter gameplay already.
>>574871052You're actually cattle if you truly believe this
>>574870705Reminder that you MUST either be legion farming or 5-way krangling. That is the meta this league. Worb sucks for that. Bowchads, wandchads, phys DoTchads run this game.>>574870982Well we know the trapper dude and the molten strike dude do sick single target. How many people who are reading Rue's old guide and watching videos that say "YOU MUST USE KBOC MERC" are going to actually be capable of pivoting?
>>574871312>MUST either be legion farming or 5-way kranglingnah im alva double corrupting
>>574871312>Well we know the trapper dude and the molten strike dude do sick single target.Is the same as merc league in that you can swap merc in hideout? Or how do you actually pivot?
>>574869251>>574869416I do like comfy builds and I'm already a slow goyGonna flip a coin between that and shield crush slayer
>>574870705freezing pulse crabs
>>574871424Yeah but you have to put appropriate gear on them.
>>574871227>>574871295>my spoonfeeding bait didnt workAAAIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEJust tell me then, is it any good? Can I really league start it?I've been eyeing with it because I want to run a kino attribute stacker, but every comment under build videos talk about it being extremely pricey...
>>574871521Actually makes the gearing a bit more interesting, albeit aids, since you'll need gear for yourself, an AG, and at least two mercs
>>574870705SRS for campaign at least, then we'll see.Patchnotes might not be a complete lie about dps increase, as back then it was common knowledge to stack movement speed for minions when skellies weren't dogshit (and that's why it got nerfed like twice since then).
>>574870869>I'd like to play luminary mercplaying trade? biggest streamer faggot just posted a starter. do you care about cheaper items? I wanted play mercs but now?...
well since the chance of getting a doryani mod on luminary is pretty minimal if new legion does not bail me out, plan B is to just give my merc insane int gear to give my spectres like 80% increased cast speed :P
>>574870876its bait ! im fishing expert
So what does Intangibility mean on items using the new league crafting? I presume it's some way to prevent using it repeatedly up to a certain amount but don't understand the purpose currently
>>574871547It's extremely pricy to max it out, your amulet craft can put you out of house and home but you shouldn't be aiming for that until the very end when you already have money. Starting a str stacker jugg is incredibly easy. Start with flat str, focus on % str later down the line
>>574870705Exsanguinate pathfinder!
>>574871601im checking out minion shit too. think I'll do explodey srs with ignite prolif for campaign. then I wanna check out soulwrest stuff with umbral army for endgame for endgame. leveling with phys srs seems miserable, not sure if melee splash can carry
>>574870705kf totem warden feautring perma freeze and perma 100% shock
now that the dust has settledwhat do i think of ggg deleting the wombgift locker and the fragment tab's breach stuff and moving it all to a new tab (sold separately of course)?
>>574871547you just buy rares with strength on them
>>574871820It's more than likely exactly that yea, probably poofs your item if it reaches 100% cuz it's an intangible ghost or something now
>>574871820
>>574871601Alberons warpath is a cheap unique for skellies. you summon one at a time but your max limit is unaffected. permenent minions at level 49
>>574871820chance to produce only one outcome from craft (default is 4 i think)
>>574871952>>574871864Okey, thanks bwos. But does it have decent defensive layers on a low - mid budget?
>>574872053you are a jugg niggaand strength gives you health
>>574871684Yeah, I'm in a similar boatall the cool shit like kaoms is probably going to be way overpriced Not to mention it's quadruple a problem since it makes your AG, merc, and your items all more expensive
>>574872000>>574871978>>574871961okay that makes sense, hopefully we'll have some more data on scaling and when it starts to become a real concern
>>574870554i'm listening. got a PoB?
>>574871943Good. Breachcucks deserve the rope.For real they should've sold 2 different fragment tabs starting years ago and moved all the new shit to the new fragment tab. Fragment tab is insane value and most of the other league tabs are worthless.
Anything else I should add to my wheel?
>>574872126Don't ping me as well, I was wrong don't put me in the same group of people that actually know stuff...
>>574872109good thing that mercs wear mostly rares that you will craft yourself
>>574872126you still get result but not with bonus just like normal currency craftYOU STILL SLAM because no reason to stop and use normal currency
>>574871547>but every comment under build videos talk about it being extremely pricey...the point of stackers is to play a build that will keep up with investment, instead of capping out and being unable to scale damage and tank past a certain point no matter how much money you throw at it.that said, you can start playing STR stack with comparatively low strength as long as you're fine playing a build that has some clunk. MSoZ, HSoT and other ultra efficient skills that people play are gonna feel worse than like, smite of divine judgment, especially early on, but you can start playing the str stack shell pretty early because they have great damage efficiency and you scale damage, tank (somewhat) and leap slam speed/time needed to do bigdam at the same time.
>>574872263nah, you tried to help anon. It's the thought and effort that counts
>>574872250KF TotemSRS

>>574872285>good thing that mercs wear mostly rares that you will craft yourselfthere will be a bunch of uniques that will be needed for good clear/high single traget. and those will be fodder for the new legion craft. uniques prices will go through the roof.
Don't want to play meta skills in league start? But still want to blast like one of the cool kids?Have I got the build for you!https://youtu.be/6yCzWzwoqrIhttps://youtu.be/6yCzWzwoqrIhttps://youtu.be/6yCzWzwoqrILITERALLY BETTER THAN FROST BLADES!! NO REASON TO PLAY FROST BLADES ANYMORE BROS!!LOGIN!!!
>>574872394did KF last league
Just boughted my mirrored crucible gear for my luminary merc in standard. I don't even have to touch the keyboard he gonna oneshot ubers for me forevermore.
>>574872250flicker strikeslamcyclone
>>574872250What best for SSF 36 4 stone ?i go luminary second chara need 4 stone pusher
>>574872416bro. these uniques were alweays in the grinder for vaal corruptions, it will be fine.
>>574872541esl-kun...
>>574870705PoE2
>>574872445Not watching but static strike is officially off meta meta thanks to Alohaa so you can't call yourself a hipster if you play it.
>>574872339>>574872106Alright alright, I will leave my safe bubble and give this a try. Thanks!
>>574872551>bro. these uniques were alweays in the grinder for vaal corruptions, it will be fine.yeah except with vaal corruptions you could buy the not so very good ones so they are still available. with the new mechanic the items goes poof.
>>574872608we all esl here... japan website btw
>>574872053You are a Juggernaut, defense is your nature. You have easy access to Fortify, extra res and tons of armour on your side of the tree, and if you substitute Unstoppable for Unwavering Stance, you can also put in Unbreakable/Untiring besides the Endurance Charge nodes for even more defenses
>>574872613>PoE2shan't be playing this pile of doo doo
LuminarySolo Self FoundGonna have a BLAST.
>>574871873Absolution is still an option if anything. Melee splash is fine on 4l+, but earlier it feels like a net loss, i'd rather some flat damage from added X.>>574871991>level 49Main struggle is first 6 acts, so that's whatever
>>574872674one person can vaal more items than entire server feed to legion. these items are common, are you new to poe or what?
>>574872445hmm I was looking for assassin builds but everyone was only suggesting poison. Is this bait? I know frostblades is arguably pretty shit on league start and the fact this guy shilled it for so long is worrying
>>574872789I want to rape this boy while his sister watches
>>574872668>Alright alright, I will leave my safe bubble and give this a try. Thanks!just a warning: jugg is not THAT tanky. without multi hit protection you are not going to just wade through packs of mobs. the tank comes much later with more armour and divine shield and additional endurance charges. slams are fine for start tho
>>574872445This is ULTRAbait>total paper>playing trans static strike on an ascendancy without attack speed scaling means you'll have to ramp constantly, clear will be sad and comparable to heavy strike with ancestral call>melee build that can't get a lot of endurances, no easy fortify, low pool, conflicting stat reqs>trans static strike isn't a powerful leech skill so you have shit sustain, no easy mana solve so no good tincture uptime>bosses that teleport around and gain invuln will make you suicidal because you'll lose stacks all the time
>>574872789i hope you find Kinetic GF lesbian bitch
HmmmmmmmmmFirestorm buffed though....
>>574872445>6k phys max hit>no actual test character>no league start run>10 seconds to kill normal map boss "example">trust me it'll be like this lol, lmao
>>574872412>used conquerors soundtrack in teasers>ziggyd invokes zana during conquerors erathis is no longer a coincidence, CONQUEROR TIER KINO INCOMING
>>574872250>shield crushis shield crush good? I'm out of the loop with poe1
>>574873091>is shield crush good? I'm out of the loop with poe1its good and scales well with slayer/crit/frenzies but its still shield crush.
>>574872412>34 minutesNo. Is there a reason to do the mechanic in acts? By that i mean uniques, flat chaos or other currency?
>>574873091https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BiorPV-Cv4E
>>574873412you can do whatever you want to do, anon
>>574873412yeah he showed currency and unique chests in campaign
>>574873412ssf ruthless maybe ? Also there is chest with low tier uniques in video... might help you in normal ssf
test
>>574873280It's a bit rough in act 1-2, but after that it's pretty goodCan also play it a few different ways as well
>>574873598welcome back retard
I have nothing to do before the league start
>>574873574Luminary's unique chest...
>>574873680Grim Dawn's new expansion, Fangs of Asterkarn, releases in 23 hours!
>>574872445Do NOTDo NOTDO NOTPlay static strike as anything other than Slayer. It is a squishy build that does not have much in the way of natural defense. Slayer lets you stack endurance charges, take less damage while leeching, and actually survive. Static Strike Slayer is very good, either gathering storm or regular, regular allows for snapshotting.
>>574873742Fags of Asterkarn lmao!
>>574873680Cute little game that can tide you over for the next 2 days
>>574873574>>574873591Welp, that usually means it'll be heavily nerfed when leg drops. It's been years since last league where currency in acts was plentiful, so expecting poverty AGAIN is a given.
>>574873280last time I played shield crush was settlers and I did it on glad and built it with bleed. I liked it a lot.
>>574873680my issue is the opposite i have too many games to play
>>574874013retard. its designed to be useful in the campaign like most leagues lately.
>>574874220definitely going to have a free 6 link in act 9
Reminder that shrine belt can NEVER come back at full power now that Luminaries exist.GGG has 2 options: 1. The belt is permanently legacy2. They nerf shrines completely into the groundYou should sell your shrine belts on standard immediately if you plan on playing other builds with mirror items.
>>574872785I just found this!
>>574874383>You should sell your shrine belts on standard immediately if you plan on playing other builds with mirror items.playing in standard... bro...
>>574874383>playing on standard
>>574874431wow!!!!
Everyone will have a free 6-link now because you can socket anything in any corrupted piece of shit. Gone are the days where proper color shit armor is 5x more expensive than a shit color one.
>>574874517>Everyone will have a free 6-link now because you can socket anything in any corrupted piece of shit. Gone are the days where proper color shit armor is 5x more expensive than a shit color one.and thats a good thing
>>574874517And here's why that's a good thing.
>>574872412>this change is because i died in the tutorial by the way, you are welcome.ziggy died and they made league mechanic easier for us kek
>>574874517Actually, making shit corrupted 6l usable instead of vendor trash is good
Any guides for speedrunning acts?
>>574868526Might do a Hierophant doing lightning tendies, seems like fun to scale the AoE to a hilarious degree
>>574874517Have to have at least something good out of patchnotes you know
>>574874876Nyes
>>574870397slayer is just the most comfy ascendancy, what can i say
>>574874876go fast
>>574875049>go fastand dont forget not to go slow
>>574875129very important step
>>574874876Don't have guides but you can watch imexile or someone a bit and just pick up shit from them.There might be a discord for speedrunning for POE or something that has the resources. I don't know the name but google those terms, you should be able to find it.
>>574874876HRT & she/her pronouns
>>574875046LS slayer for me was a great build but it relied on charges and ralakesh's so im going worb>>574871753it is a boat league after all
>>574875046>slayer is just the most comfy ascendancy, what can i sayExtra comfy since I can have five of his ascendency notables for fairly cheap and or go permanent fortify while also having the option to completely cheese uber boss fights (immunity timer abuse) with Glad's War of Attrition.
>>574875398>but it relied on charges and ralakesh's so im going worbwhat do you think worb will rely on kek
>>574875543*or go perma fortify. I could have written this better.
>>574875623i dont need ralakesh's for movement speed with the build im going for but probably the same im guessing
>>574875761Well what I mean to say is that a lot of casters (especially worb which doesn't have some quirky alt scaling) will default to powercharge stacking, and powercharge stacking is best done with items that eat your PCs like tul wands, willclash, malachai's, graven's etc, which necessitates using ralakesh.But it's not that you physically can't play worb without it. It's buffed af anyway.
>have to deal with spectres and AG as a mercslutI don't want to play this build anymore.
>>574872191https://pobb.in/o8WJC8FzhsOl
>>574876140Do don't use spectres and AG, what seems to be the problem?
>>574876140>buy 5 items>slap them on ag>done>died? well whateverIt was WAY worse back then, having to rebuy the set every time + pming 30 niggas for each set because it's 1c
>>574876292>Do don't
>>574876342I fatfinger sometimes ok? I'm getting old and my keyboard fingering skills aren't what they used to be
>>574876140you dont invest in minions on mercslut. ag you might use but spectres you never will unless you are some mongoloid like ghazzy or some shit
>>574876536>Giving shitspammers attention for 0 effort replies
>>574873837Fags of Amsterdam... oh wait... thats plausible
>>574876708I've even give you some attention for a 0.1 effort reply, I know you anons are starved for it <3 chu~
>>574873742>cringe yawn
>>574870397TUB SHIT OF EXILE 2STALE CONTENT OF EXILE 2GOD SHIT OF EXILE 1NEW CONTENT OF EXILE 1
Speaking of AG, I can't believe they actually deleted Mask of the Stitched Demon.
>>574876982>NEW CONTENT OF EXILE 1did poe2 actually have anything new on its own? so far the only thing that poe2 achieved on its own is that they tubbed breach and monetized it AGAIN across both games
>>574877028qrd
Bros Conner's build looks really good.
>>574877028its even funnier when you realize that it was an item used exclusively on ag and now it will literally never be used by anybody. excellent balancing right here.
>>574877028Last time i played with the AG w/o the mask - only deaths happened from onetaps, such as corpse explosion on blightravaged. And maybe standing in the sirus storms for 10 years, grukthul can only outheal so much If you can spare 2 asc points - catarina ascendancy fixes that too since you can just logout or resocket the gemerald
>>574877118it now requires PLAYER maximum shield instead of any (that means AG's). That means you can only expect like what, 5% hp regen if (you) have 2500 ES? Not worth the heavily weighted incursion vial.
>there are poe2 players RIGHT HEREfrightening...
I want to crush Legion, what build for me?
big shit 2HUGE stink
>Ruetoo tried to big league Lance again>Lance was chain farming ubers on day 2 and had already made 2 mirrors>Rue's only response was "b-but mirrors are cheap on day 2!"Kek bodied that freak yet again.
>>574877318Ye. Nobody wore it in any serious capacity after fucking Incursion League... 8 years ago.It settled nicely into a slot as a permanent AG item and nobody ever had any issues with this due to the extremely niche nature of the item.Choosing to kill it now is just a sign that they're starting to sunset Incursion.>Start small, weaken/delete bad/niche items>Work your way up to divesting the mechanic of value (something we've seen done to other mechanics like Breach and Harvest)>Then sit on it until you're ready to remove/replace it (Breach permanently fucked, replace with Keepers, then they already started the next gimping cycle by massively nerfing packsize in Unstable Breaches this patch), Metamorph was replaced with Ultimatum for example

>>574877761That was actually funny. He was whining the entire time. That also made me respect Lance more. His builds are actually well thought out, and like Palsteron, considers the comfy factor
Im just gonna do 36/40 asap and quit in a week
>>574878302>not going 40/40pathetic
>>574877821its actually infuriating that they are willing to cripple and completely rework beloved, even if dated, mechanics. and then theres fucking torment untouched because mfniggers are abusing it all the time and god forbid ggg nerfed party faggotry. a mechanic literally useless without heavy abuse and too aids to interact with for normal people.

>>574881062>Can't you still ancient orb into EE it with that div card?they increased the rarity of EE, it went from like a 1/8 chance to a 1/200 or something retarded with that strat. Definitely a second or third build once I amass some trump heads.
>>574880628top left looking <Zesty>
Isn't Reliquarian just an absolutely retarded league start?First 2 ascendancies are kind of whatever, but once you get raise spider on kill, you get the fucking lvl 20 version, giving fucking 400% poison damage and 40% attack speed, and the minions themselves aren't too shabby for early maps and are invulnerable. Pair that with pconc of bouncing, picking the free dawnbreaker node, and then eventually free melding + decent jewel crafts, you are absolutely chilling with a fully capable uber bosser and endgame map farmer effortlessly. Just use worm flask to get your spiders up during bosses.
>>574881214Dont talk shit about my man Tealc in the best series ever made.
>>574881116unless you get some absurd attack speed early somehow, it'll work well enough until less duration at 31
>>574881427>Just use worm flask to get your spiders up during bosses.on a pconc build? you really want to dilute your pconc with worm flask?I get your point but the hard part is making a good pob that actually outperforms pconc PF or assassin or other builds.

>>574881962Todd, you already lost the IP, it's over...
>>574881909its literally the same as heist but you dont have to portal out after each wing (if you want to pick up every rare item for some reason)
>>574881707Didn't think of that, yeah that does kind of suck. Worm ring is kind of a cope. Fuckin on kill effects. Too bad only the crit on the phys spells got buffed.
i will simply not play ANY build that requires me to press more than 1 button. no i will not use shitty piano keys for buffs. ONE button only.
>>574881962i would play this but i will not buy the game unless it's 90% off.
im literally shaking and loging in to play standard RELEASE THE LEAGUE NOW
>>574882218That one button better be your movement key, you wouldn't lie and actually use a whole separate button for damage would you?
for me its no mans sky
I am playing war thunderYou should not
>>574882567i dont know what it is but maybe i should look into it. reminds me of star lancer and i played that game A LOT as a child.

realistically, the BEST choice for leaguestart is boneshatter of complex trauma juggbuild a solid baseline with a good crafted weapon, ryslatha's coil, etc, and farm essences / harvest, liquidate everything for divines in the first week. Once you're rich just play whatever you want
when is reliquarian worth it? i have looked at several pobs and its always worse?
>>574883250when you want some crit chance without going sh*dow
>>574883250Convert shenanigans makes it more than worth it, people really underestimate how busted turning most of phys damage taken as elemental or taking most damage as 1 element is, there's a reason ggg deleted most easy sources of it.
>>574883108>build a solid baseline with a good crafted weapon, ryslatha's coil, etc, and farm essences / harvest, liquidate everything for divines in the first week. Once you're rich just play whatever you wantwhat if you are a one build per league andy?
>>574883108>realistically, the BEST choice for leaguestart is boneshatter of complex trauma jugg0 reason to play that on softcore trade unless you really enjoy it
>>574883586>what if you are a one build per league andy?>andyyou go back to lebbit
>>574880463>endgameEarly game the build is so unplayable that you have to play cold dot which is beyond shit and then midgame is expensive as fuck not just endgame
>>574883586rf cheiftain
>>574883831I have no idea what you're talking about but there's no world where you HAVE to play cold dot on any class.
>>574883754>you go back to lebbithow could I? I dont even have an account.
I HAVE to play Cold DoT because I like it and think it's fun
>trade league
lol is the new poe1 league looking that bad? heard ben talking how doomed the current end game is and now I see this title from quin. the league is not even out and he's talking about palworld "after poe".
>>574883108100% this
>>574884601stroomersissies are having a melty because there isn't an obviously abusable mechanic that they can rake in money via RMT with
>>574884601the vibecoded game itself is pretty meh but the twitch integration with the extension is legit cool
>>574884601If I'm burnt out after playing 3.28 and 0.5 nonstop then I can't imagine how sick streamers must be of the game(s)
Why CIV 6 map generator so shit ? its literally worse civ generator.... pick fucking jungle civ - tundra pick plains civ - surrounded by mountainspick CANADA - jungles LMAO
>>574885291Did you turn on that bias checkbox? Also sometimes if the world gen is so shit or there's too many civs with the same climate, it just boots you elsewhere.
>>574885415i swear even poe has better terrain genthere is no bias check in civ6 damn i need play something not shit 2-3 days

>>574885671how do they explain tides ?
>>574885671Anon? Have you never made it to act 8? Or hell even act 3 if you're paying attention.
>>574885608that would be civ 5
>>574885671Not after act 8 hehehehe
>>574884317sorry anon I really hate the "andy" thing.on the topic of bleed jugg, I don't think it's that hot of a build for a one build per league guy. it. it's good for hcssf ubers but it doesn't turn into a giga blaster unless you use another skill and do some other jugg thing like str stack.
>>574885671Cute little retard making me wanna sit you down and learn lore
You can't have a goddess of the moon if there's no moon.
I really really really hate the wildwood wisp garbage and wish it would be removed from both games
Therefore, if there is a goddess of the moon, that means there is a moon
Moon is hoax
Lunaris is made of cheese and rabbits.
I landed on Lunaris
Moon is real but you know what's actually a hoax? Saturn. Completely made up for Hollywood
Do we have the numbers on the new rolling magma? I tried leveling with Frozen Pulse but it was a soul crushing experience
>>574886446How can Saturn be fake if he consumed his son?

every single league starter looks like dogshit slop to play. literally no fun or even normal build to start with jfc how did they butcher the builds like this. >b-b-b-b-b-ut myshut the fuck up, there isn't a single fun starter.
>>574887418wait, he's not pausingHE'S NOT PAUSINGAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH
Did GGG forget to viewbot the 3.29 trailer or something?
>>574888016Describe what's a fun starter.
>>574888075I keep telling you retards that it's all about if they want them to be placed on Youtube's ad listing since those count as views for some fucked reason.
>>574888016I've been saying this for years ever since Expedition patch, which sapped a fuckload of baseline player power, so now every build either needs to use a skill that feels terrible to play (how the FUCK does anyone stomach leveling with Absolution?) or have some jank bullshit that makes it unfun. Things like:>Warcries (annoying)>Traps/Mines/Totems (feels like shit)>Minions (bad AI or have 0 HP so have to constantly respawn them)>Oh yeah, this build can't be leveled with even though the Gem is available at level 2, you gotta convert into it in the mid-high 60s when you have the Skill points and links to make it function at all (shit in a meta kind of way)>Bows (negative HP)
>>574887601right i forgot you just get 25 instilling orbs day 1 ssf every league

>>574888351Hit the button yourself, knob-head.
>>574888090what this >>574888302 based gigachad said
>>574879176I wouldn't play that shit if it did 10x the damage, it's lame.
>>574888302>>Warcries (annoying)Don't you get auto exert fairly early on? And you just need like two.
>>574881962this but unironically. I called a nuke down on a community event and it was kino. nobody really pvps so it's pretty chill most of the time. linking up with people to boss is fun too. everybodys in power armor so it's kinda thematic.
>>574888302>>Oh yeah, this build can't be leveled with even though the Gem is available at level 2, you gotta convert into it in the mid-high 60s when you have the Skill points and links to make it function at all (shit in a meta kind of way)
>>574888631Hitting the buttons isn't the annoying part.
>>574888075It's summer. Views are down across the board.
>>574888027fool...
>>574880628GOOLD?
>>574888302>>574888687What skill is that even?
>>574888976A few of 'em.>Glacial Hammer is strictly inferior to almost any other Skill except Heavy Strike, you CAN level with it, it'll just be miserable>Perforate>Shield Crush>Double Strike>Dual Strike>Explosive Trap comes online sooner than 60, but is pretty ass early on>Viper Strike>Blight>Kinetic Bolt>Spark (which is going to be even worse until you have hundreds of Divs in gear now due to its honestly insane nerf this patch)
>>574888302tfw you cant leaguestart a build that clears screens and instaphases bosses and never dies and comes online in act 2
Does anyone have the Remidus armor set in PoE2? I wanna know what it looks like.
>look up early league builds from Mirage to check progression>flicker strike gladiator>day 1 60K DPS random rares, wonder how he even finished the campaign>day 2 1.5M DPS, 200+ chaos of gear
>>574889419shit game desu
anyone starting smite ?
I'm going Slut Scion Merc slave starter and you can't stop me
Gonna play aurabot Luminary and NOT level as sunder. Hopefully it won't be too painful! Pretty excited for 3.29!
>>574889520might start cold smite slayer
>>574889520I played a smite champ last league. Good with cheap gear, scales great, becomes unkillable late game (except DoTs lmao).
any build that will get me 36/40 by sunday night? i got shit to do next week
>>574889749If you are asking at all, the answer is no.
>>574888403wow it only took them the entire league!
>>574888302it genuinely sounds like ARPGs aren't for you
>>574888969It's pronounced GOO AH OOLD.
>>574872339>HSoTwhats this?And is acc stacking still a thing or is that dumpstered aswell?
>>574890260Protip: If you can figure out what MSoZ is, you can figure out what HSoT is.Git gud.
>>574890260hot sex of trannies, ds_lily's leaguestarter
>>574890260>whats this?heavy strike of trarthus, it's basically heavy strike for staves with crown of eyes built into it>And is acc stacking still a thingyeah though I'm not sure if jugg is go-to for stacking accuracy specifically and not strength, people do that on deadeye and other ascendancies too.
>>574890509I thought they nerfed those claws into the ground making it unplayable?
>>574889317i just did a naked 1:05 dominus run with blight no +1 no dot multi
>>574890647https://poe.ninja/poe1/builds/mirage/?items=Foulborn+Hand+of+Thought+and+Motionstrong things can get nerfed like 5 times before falling out of fashion
>>574889449Magefist makes it happen
Your face when you fell for a league starter meme build
>>574890775im curious if people will still play it now that the belt is goneMy fav build, dont know if you can play it on a budget anymore tho
static strike bait or not?
>>574891020your fault for not researching and thinking for yourself.
>>574888302I've literally never stopped using Storm Brand -> Arma Brand for all my Inquisitors, Elementalist and spell Hieros since it started being a thing
>>574891080dunno how big the difference between 280m dps and 500m dps is, especially considering you gain a belt, which is a powerful attribute stack slot.I'm sure it can be adapted still, and str stacking probably got stronger with the ability to enshroud various uniques.
>>574891154its very strong and good for new players
>>574891224I'm not the biggest fan of Brands for leveling, but I can't deny that they are a good fallback and don't feel awful to use.
>>574891293On the high end? Not verry much, but I fear the lowend of the build is hit alot harder.>enshroudits only weapons and jewelry that cant be enshrouded right?
>he is a jingakh
>>574890810Yeah I'm sure you farm 200 chaos in a few hours with a build that takes a minute to kill one rare in a map.
jingakhballs
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_oBZ-N5Fg9YITS UPwarden is better though
>>574891520>I fear the lowend of the build is hit alot harder.it never was a day 1 build, and I imagine that with enshrouded shit and easier crafting with the allflame mechanic, it shouldn't be hard to get it off the ground.
you now remember good old times
>>574891672Not anymore
>he is a jing-ACK
>>574892015I miss prophecy...Runesmithing in poe2 is basically the same, just less cool
So Kalgurans are not human?
>xhe plays in a trade league
>>574892461Wet and slippery flesh, clinging feet and tongue. No matter the colour before, now the earth is green.
>>574892741no they're just saying that you're a powerful entity, and not retarded enough like the vaal to literally put the gems inside your body and instead put it inside the gear
Woo, roiling tempest is only 1 not point for my build.
huh they are waaay cheaper than i thought they would be. and people actually are still selling/buying them
>>574892916Isn't this horribly bad? Like I get you might find some lucky mod but sheesh.
>>574892856I miss Navali whispering such delicate sweet nothings into my ear, I'm so happy she's at least in poe2
>>574893025retard
>>574893025>100-100000 lightning damage>Now 50-125000 damageYou tell me anon
>>574893025They want to push harder on the gimmick of lightning either one tapping niggas or gently tickling them, which is good
>>574893198And also costing your entire Mana pool every 3 casts.
>>574893152Okay, I haven't considered how low the floor is.
>>574893152>best way to scale lightning is archmage>doesnt work with the keystoneretard
>>574893247Still doable with eblade inq coc i'd bet
>>574893247oh shut the fuck up about mana already jesus fucking christ there's this thing called a mana flask
>>574892916So fucking cringe these are all next to witch.
>>574893295Archmage should have long ago been changed to give max damage
>>574893295Oh right so its the best keystone for evey lightning build that doesnt use archmage?Holy retard
>>574891831raider is better than warden
>no chaos dot builds in the league start indexoh no no no no no
>>574893814>bane of condemnation gets 100% more damage per hex>socket in 5 hexes>30k dpsI'm good
>>574893961damn sis, you might even make it out of the campaign with that kind of dps
Where is everyone seeing these new nodes I'm not seeing a link to it on the main site?Anyone willing to post a link?
>>574894030https://poedb.tw/us/passive-skill-tree/purple newgreen changed
>>574894030i look like this
>>574893814If they would do like during good ol' times just casually buffing shit by 50% then we'd talk. 10-15%? No.Death's oath is the only noticeable winner of this.
>>574893618now list lightning builds
>>574893373>there's this thing called a mana flaskWould be fine if one could automate it.
>>574894575>oh noooo I have to press buttons in my video game, daddy Jonathan help!!!
>>574893373this post reeks of pootoorist
>>574894751this but unironicallythey should undo the changes to master surgeon so I can afk in maps as a pathfinder and never take damage too
starting slam juggbut i'm gonna think about cats on crit ass the entire time
bloodline ascensions will ALWAYS be shit while we only have 8 ascension points, they need to add another lab layer so we can have 10 points and then they'll finally be used, I don't understand how they can't notice it
Give me a viable eternity shroud buildNOW
>>574894751I'm already pressing left click, right click, w, e, and r keys. Losing a flask slot to a mana pot would be fine if it could craft "use at end of effect" even as a regular affix instead of a benchcraft enchant.
>>574894956or they could make the bloodlines actually good and make them competitive with most ascendancies last pointsAlso maybe they should have made more bloodlines that weren't filled with minionslop that literally no one cares about
>>574895137>bloodlinesArent they adding new ones this league or am i retarded?
>>574895325yeah, they're on here>>574894165note that the abyss one won't be active until 3.29.1 as per GGG
>>574895137bloodlines sole purpose is filling up your points when last points on your primary ascendancy are shit. they are not supposed to compete with normal ascendancies and never will.
>>574895137nah, they should be sprinkle on top that you spend 2 points maaaybe 4 points max, but we don't have enough points to waste like that. 10 ascendancy points fixes this.
>>574894956how come I made hundreds of divines selling Auls at the start of Mirage then
>>574893689TRVKE
>>574895519the problem is that most ascendancies don't have shit options for the final points and the options given by bloodlines are dogshit in like 99% of cases
>>574895774>noobs who can't get stuff done by themselves falling for the honeypot bloodlinesuh, I wonder...
I don't know who needs to hear this, but unless you're a highly efficient blaster like fub then worb is bait.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but both poe1 and poo2 are good and fun games
>>574871923>wardenwhat the fuck? what kind of zhp zdps build is that?show pob
>>574896353I play and enjoy both games, but I still shit talk PoE1.
>>574896353I play and enjoy both games, but I still shit talk PoE2.

why does this button shit keep happening? any fix?
>>574896564There was a whole thread dedicated to it, not my problem its mid.
I think these are ~13 years old
>>574896564It's a meme. A fun one, but still a meme. Not really starter material. People are gonna talk about it again when it's time for their second or third toon.
>>574896564>Can't use channeling skills>Is locked to a shitty staffGee, I wonder why nobody cares about it.
Talking about memes, did anybody make the raven RF staff work in PoE2?
>>574896914im starting it
>>574894956retard
>>574897024my condolences
>>574896607makes sense, poo2 is the poe1 for children
>>574897109its going to be good, just you wait
>>574897138Those stats are day 1 PoE1 gear and multi mirror in PoE2.
>>574896984No, and I wish GGG would stop tying abilities to items.
>>574897315Everyone would just play bows
>>574896564we were hyped when it was announced. you want people to be doing jumping jacks over a cute meme unique for 5 days straight?
allright I will turn my merc into a cast speed buff bot and my character will just equip doryanis prototype...... what could possibly go wrong, am i right fellas ?
>>574897440No, as in abilities granted exclusively by an item.
>>574896607
Alright, what are (you) starting?
>>574897760holy sneed of hammerfalls berserker
>>574897841I’d let Mark fuck me
>>574897624Just make them worth using then. But ggg would need to get up off their asses and stop making 1ex uniques.
>>574897919
>>574897760The fact that Fub is playing WORB over bows is a very strong argument to run that.
2 days before a PoE2 patch we're burning through a thread in like 90 minutes. Just sayin'.
>>574897958poo2 has so many uniques that are unusable simply because they don't have +x to skills, they insist on keeping that shit fucking mod in the gamewhy equip a gimmick unique with a cool effect when it cuts your damage in half compared to a dogshit rare that has +x to skills
>>574898213Is it that reset?
>>574898173Molten Strike war crime: pictured
spectres actually got a pretty massive bonus with the you can use any socket for your skills memequality on most minion gems are just small bonuses and you can buy a +1 spectres delve chest now with 6 links and gain 2 spectres late game and not have to go through the extremely hard job of recoloring it if the base wasn't es or eseva
>>574898213People will still play 3.29, but literally nobody is hyped for it. Just watch any build guide, the lack of enthusiasm is palpable.
>>574898230Just gives us an ability to graft a mod from a rare onto an unique
>>574898173I want to play molten strike...

Should I try making EB Inquis work in SSF or just bite the bullet and become an RF senior citizen?
>>574897760flameblast ignite elementalisttime to dust off the classic
>>574896564Crab totems are actually very counter intuitive because unlike traditional totems, you may freely move and cast and still enjoy your totems support, meaning it doesn't belong in a conventional totem build.So it's something you bolt onto a regular build or use as an engine for something like semi automated bladefall bladeblast.
>>574895871this is extremely build specific. sometimes you get ascendancy for something key for you, but other than that it has no synergy with what you are doing. this is where bloodlines come in.

Is smokie a better femboy vtuber than lazyexile?
>>574897760Pconc reliquarian into deaths oath.
>>574899264>So it's something you bolt onto a regular buildExcept you give up your weapon slot for it. Not exactly "bolting on" when you make it actively worse.

>>574896801btw you can now organize them in the map tab because with changes to map system, map tab is no longer restricted by map series.
doesn't hypnotic gaze of the lich fixes all archmage nerfs?

>>574900443>>login on my berserker>>attacks slow as fuck>>rage doesn't give attack speed anymore>>no blitz chargesI'm still sad about this. Blitz was kinda interesting since it let you consider building Crit but no damage for easy stacks for AS.

neon i know you're reading thispost the challenge rewards so i know whether or not i can skip
>>574901609i played rf back in merc league and i was tanky enough to never die, but damage was so shit that i spent 30 minutes or more on every boss. you will be an expert for boss moveset after that.
>>574901609Pick Jugg and something tanky.
>>574901728okay I'll post them in about 5 hours
my kind of game
what do this shit look like in poo2?
for me it's eepy sleepy
>>574901609Actual thing would be to do a slayer with like 10 endurance charges + over leech + 65/65 block. You can probably do smite or static strike (regular) or really whatever decent strike skill you want.Ben's berserker slams is also good, I know it is zerker but you just don't take carnage, he plays HC it is very tankyJuggernaut or RF is kind of a meme. You can get really tanky but dude do you want to actually kill bosses or slowly burn them down for 15 minutes?
New league new CWS build. Yep, it's Netflix monitor two time. For any other DoTiggas out there are we thinking of doing that Scorching Ray of Immolation totem tech shit they were doing in gauntlet or is it just fire trap some more.

WHERE ARE THE CHALLENGES
>>574902901Hope you like raising my Karui kids back in your hideout
I hate the mercenary change, it was fun gearing them and having a second party member even in ssf, they could've just removed the item bonus or something instead of forcing you to play like the sissy auracuck dev wants
actually crazy that ggg never thought of selling a league tab. it would be some kind of evolving kinda tab that changes every league to be the premium variant of the free locker.
>>574901980there is a video in poe2, there is even like 3 or 4 helmet variants
>>574903030No, now get on your knees for your carry. Open that flame link wide like a good little support. Yeah, that's good. Just like that.
>>574903056Why would they when you can sell a league specific one every league?
>>574903030luminary is quite literally the best ascendancy in the game. merc provides substantially more utility than any other ascendancy.
>>574903127Best of both worlds. Sell the league specific one next league, and the "current league tab" one now. The current tab always rotates so you'll always want a new one anyway.
>>574903221lol
>>574903127because they didnt make a new tab since delirium.
>>574903221Get off /poeg/ ziz you have starter vids to slop out.

>>574903440surely you will apologize when they will nerf luminary and mercs in 3.30
>>574902704Its me, Jonatron, kinetic merc waifus only spawn in corrupted t17 maps. Get baited, goy
>>574893025>algebra is hard.This example was from an arc build I put together.
>>574903574>No free player scaling>No unique chests>Nerfed stats on perm versions>Uniques that come on mercs are disabled unless you have the nodeRemove two of the above and then we can talk about being best ascendancy.
>>574903221I don't know about best ascendancy overall, but it is blatantly better than Reliquarian or Ascendant because it actually gets a lab in act 3. You'd be stupid as fuck to click anything other than Luminary with your Scion in act 3.
>people are too retarded to understand how strong being an unkillable aurabot is for a mercenarydid you not watch any of the mercenary gauntlet?
>>574903739ziggyd spawned infamous kineticist after dominus
now that reflect has been effectively removed, you're all gonna run risk scarabs to maximize juice, right?
>>574904063Blatantly better than ascendant is true, but Reliq has some power this league. That dawnbreaker node makes you one tanky bitch.
>>574904087streamer client privilige, please understand
>>574904170i ran risks until they mooned to like 2d+ per scarab. that shit isnt worth
>>574904087Ah yea, the shiggyziggyd videos known famously for showing the exact state of the game after the upcoming patch.There never ever been a change between video and release. Never.
>>574904298then there's an atlas strat that makes at least 3d per map back. they're not 2 div for nothing.
>>574903739You can buy merc contracts to fix this. Unless of course you're one of those SSF cucks.

>>574908321>>574908468You might be right. I might have misclicked when I used an alt orb on it
>>574908746Corrupting Fever. This is the like 80% of the reason you go elementalist, because it's the only ascendancy that can scale CF (it's neither a spell nor an attack, so it has to be scaled with golem effects)Exsanguinate - exanguinate is used for its own damage and as a delivery mechanism for CFReap/Vaal Reap - used as a single target skill.there's also storm call of trarthus as a phys dot skill, but no one uses that shit because it has delayed damage and small aoe.
>>574906397record yourselfpull up a vod of someone faster playing the same build compare and emulate what they are doingbut most likely you are killing inefficiently / wasting time on bosses
>>574909016thanks for the detailed response anon. self cast or miner for these skills? i assume it's pretty glass as far as max hits go
last time acts took me 10 hours so you are doing fine , anon

>>574909380NTA but no, I will hit maps day 2 and enjoy my campaign time.
>>574908907Nah, I just can't create 4 mods tablet anymore, I don't know
maybe I'll do 3 acts per day this league
>>574900850T....NT?!
>>574909253I always get bored half way through acts and go to sleep. day 2 I lock in. I'm around 6 or 7 hours for acts
>>574909201>self cast or miner for these skills?the miner exsang/reap playstyle is something else entirely, it's used to play these spells as hit-based instead of dot-based with cold conversion. the mines enable delivering many hits quickly, which you don't really need when you play the physdot skills as dot skills.As for phys dot, it's played in 2 main ways:1) poet's pen (using wand attacks to trigger exsang for a more comfortable playstyle)2) self-cast (poet's pen is not good for caster damage so you eventually need to drop it when you move on to harder content and need a good wand)At a very high gear level, physdot ele doesn't need to do much casting, it delivers CF everywhere with 1 cast of exang or reap, which triggers explodes which inflict CF stacks on everything and it can cause a self-propagating explode-CF chain.

>>574910389>no damage taken/life loss penaltyThe penalty comes from starting in the shadow area.
>>574910476yea im gonna do auras instead of link hp scaling
>>574910528So i just use Lance build and dont switch from RF at lvl70?
>>574910389Berzerker is one of the worst ascends to begin with so why not
Question for you experts!I see all of the merc guides skip the permanent flame link node. That seems like a terrible idea as even though you get an extra item slot from skipping it it means you need to press flame link on your merc jumping around every 10 SECONDS for the entire time you play the game
challenge mtx today
>>574910476you have to scale one or the othereither you aura/support your merc, or your merc aura/supports youif you are supporting the merc, you go flamelink and/or regular aura supportif the merc is supporting you, you can go basically any build in the game that isnt enabled by a different ascendancy
>>574910923is gonna be the diver suit they showed in the preview
>>574910815I thought lances guide uses the flame link node as the second one?
>>574910815You want the permanent link node if you are mapping. If you're just gonna walk in and one shot an uber boss with your 347 trillion damage armor stacking merc then you don't need permanent link.
>>574910714*clicks on every energy shield node**activates energy blade*shadow area of the tree is good, thougheverbeit

>>574911286varashta with khelari's deception, shield wall bringer into titan later, most martial artist builds.get ~15k es and you're good to go though I don't really understand why you'd want to interact with poe2 bosses.they're unfun, die immediately and just vomit mechanics. I only play builds that can kill map bosses in under 5 seconds, they're fucking unbearable.
i have my build pickedbut now the most important part of a new poe leaguehow do you maximize your gamer food so you don't miss playing the game? cooking takes too much time
>>574912065I will order Del Taco for dinner
i thought about going luminary but then remembered theres only like 3 good mercs
>>574912065Cook before league start, you fat fuck.
>>574912065im slow cooking some chicken thighs on thursday night to shred up and put in the fridge for later for some burritos only like 4 ingredients
okay 23 minute act 1 now... just need to shave off 3 more minutes somehow.
>>574912015thanks broidk I just figured it's something to do while I'm bored.
>>574912065Planning on making a pork roast with baby carrots and mini potatoes in my multi cooker so I have multiple days of dinner I can just have.
>>574870397YJK this dude loves to watch
>>574909687>updating drivers before league startngmi
>>574912516That sounds fugging delicious.
>>574912516That's a good idea, I think I'll do the same. What's your process? I got a pork loin in my fridge that needs out.
just order pizza
>>574912065the trick is to prepare food in advance that you can eat with your mouth while you play with your hands so you dont waste time and eat while playing
>>574912889I did it before for a bigger cut than what my multi cooker fits in, so I had to spend half an hour just to get something that fits inside the pot itself, it would help to marinate and rub down the meat in spices before setting in and adding the water, but if you have the space, you can also just put the meat in and add spices later, clean the carrots and potatoes, don't need to skin them if they're not growing horns. Make sure to add a lot more salt as if you're making a soup so your meat can absorb enough flavour while it's basting in for the slow cook. If you have an actual crockpot for roasts, you'll typically have the meal around 8 - 10 hours, but I typically like to give it 16 on the multicooker since slower to cook, but also get that extreme tenderness of the meat going, that's the best part for me when it literally slides off the bone. You can add onions and other aromatic veggies in there, but I prefer to keep it simple so I don't have to work too hard for it.
>>574910615>he thinks crit resistant stops crit builds lmao
Brooooo winter orb is insaaaane now these spell buffs are crazy! check out my league start build bro ralakesh's impatience, maven belt, badge of the brotherhood, elegant hubris, red nightmare, watchers eyekeep on hitting these home runs ggg!
>>574913402That's about what I do but I throw in onions during the cooking, and it doesn't take as long due to being a loin. Thanks for the input.

isnt kineticist merc mechanically and numerically just better than worb?
>>574913768We're not sure yet, perma-mercs have some debuffs that we don't have concrete numbers for.
>>574913172>Eat with your mouthAs opposed to??
>>574913738>priceTrading is for retards the game should be balanced around ssf
>>574913889You ever seen that one south park episode?
>>574913768Yes, we're sure. perma-mercs have some buffs that we have the numbers for.
>>574913657if you cant kill a soul eater crit resistant rare with life map mods and 80% deli in 5seconds max then you are playing a zdps build. im not even joking.
>>574913910You're not wrong but that's not the game we have today.
>>574903538buyanad
>>574914031glad we agree, assassin is zdps vs crit resist mobs.
>>574914367maybe this league you will kill kitava
>>574914031so basically 10m dps non-crit?
Trading has completely raped the balance of this game
>>574913768Nobody play mercs!!!If too many people play it and it's fun GGG will nerf it like they always do
>>574914558no forbidden jewels, this is a valid starter
>>574913402recommendations for pork tenderloin marinade?
>>574914671use yogurt, muscle proteins can handle lactic acid but citric/acetic dissolves them
>>574914558have you considered farming it yourself
>>574914549according to poeg thats unattainable at the baseline
>>574914671Can't recommend anything too complex, I used Lawry's Total Seasoning, Salt, and Pepper last time just to rub it down with no marinate. Still tasted fantastic.I would try bbq as a marinate if I really wanted to, but since I'm slow cooking it in water instead of sticking it in the oven, I just throw spices on it and call it a day.

For me it's prioritizing comfort in SSF over div/hour tinkchasing in trade.
>>574922313For me it's rerolling 10 times in trade league and never killing any ubers.
>>574921443you can do crackling lance of disintegration instead
>>574920410Shhhhhhhhhhh
>>574871873srs leveling is very smooth and easy, maybe not the fastest but still
>>574899860How was that viable? Wasn't its main thing that you deal 20% less damage per spell?

>>574923638voyage is a bastard child of delve/heist/expedition and its going to be glorious

>>574914996I'm going out the night before, my league start is toast
>>574923812im genuinely excited for the league and hope that it goes core immediately if plays well. it has the potential to stand on equal footing with other out of map mechanics.

>>574923873Two forbidden jewels actually.
>>574872416Kaom's heart will not be necessary for getting four stones. Flame link will carry hard. It's also not that hard to farm the div card or drop it from the genesis tree. There's also a div card that should be a 50/50 for nycta's lantern.
>>574908174>life leech on anything they were unkillable.Completely your fault to have not mitigation there, especially when you know it's something you're running into often enough. Retard...
