[prime marsh]

Idk why that wouldn't be helpful.

[inland sentinel]

Don’t worry, PoE 2 is a totally different ball game

[viral cargo]

sry Im dumb what is suffix and prefix in terms of weapon modifiers??

[haughty niche]

you can press i while in the passive tree to open your inv

[elfin hornet]

How to fight ||Zalmarath||? He oneshots and his tells are horrible

[frank sail]

What does Quality do on a staff, such as blacksmith whetstones?

[verbal solstice]

Ball lightning gives 750% chance to shock, are there any enemies besides bosses who would be able to resist not getting shocked?

[ripe nexus]

where the slot

[wintry oriole]

my friend is asking what site show when and what are going to be on sale in the poe2 shop? like for the future sale items

[haughty niche]

searching it will highlight it.

ctrl+f is the search shortcut

[inland sentinel]

He is like fighting Kitava

[haughty niche]

there are a bunch of jewel sockets in the tree

[inland sentinel]

If you’ve ever played PoE 1

In fact the other boss also is like kitava

It’s a little hard to explain if you haven’t killed kitava

[ripe nexus]

pressing ctrl f but nothings happening

[elfin hornet]

So basically bad camera and oneshots.
I fought Kitava, kitava was bs

[proud briar]

whats corrupted items how to get them?

[inland sentinel]

Yeah ground slam, arm swipe, laser beams, floor explosions,

All the tells are pretty much kitava

[sour skiff]

is shared stash a different thing than just ur stash?

[elfin hornet]

Idk where his arm swipe is going to land. Tells are bad

[safe lance]

Guild stash?

[inland sentinel]

Generally lifts his arm slowly

[wintry oriole]

for the second ascendency trial do i need to do all 10 trials?

[tacit knot]

I feel so hopeless during boss fights..hopelessly flopping around while some people i just see it do first try. Is there really no tips you guys can give me

[elfin hornet]

I can't zoom out camera more

[sour skiff]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[inland sentinel]

What boss fight

[safe lance]

For every boss I do what most people do to cheese in souls/monster hunter games. I just hug boss's butt and roll a LOT.

[sour skiff]

thinking on getting this, but it says smth abt a shared stash which confused me, wondering if it is something else than just ur normal stash

[safe lance]

And I am a ranged char*

[inland sentinel]

Idk I just found that fight instinctual, it’s like really hard to put in words

[proud briar]

you can trade/sell items from that stash

[safe lance]

oh probably means you can make it public? Can you show where is says shared?

[haughty niche]

The stash is shared between characters

[safe lance]

^

[haughty niche]

within the same league at least

[vast robin]

Anyone up to help me finding and defeated Viper Napuatzi? Got there last night and then lost my instance cause I did some other things. Struggled like crazy on it anyways.

[safe lance]

I type too slow

[frozen moon]

Hi can some1 answer a question, that i have? 🙂

[inland sentinel]

#2┃looking-for-group

[haughty niche]

sup

[sour skiff]

Do I keep the premium stash after early access league ends if that's what it is called

[inland sentinel]

Don’t ask just to ask

[safe lance]

If it is a question about my personal details, then no.

[haughty niche]

yes they are permanent, even in new leagues

[inland sentinel]

Just ask the question and wait if someone can answer

[sour skiff]

thanks, ill get that seems like a fine purchase

[haughty niche]

Also you get the stash for both games if it applies

[safe lance]

and maybe also poe3

[sour skiff]

I have not played poe 1

[safe lance]

you can play it now and will have this

[frozen moon]

I have 12 Dex and cant wear my armor anymore. It says i need 12 dex, and i have 12 dex, but the "dex" text is red...

[heavy fable]

is there some trick to lingering illusion or is it just bugged? i have it active but get no illusions when i dodge roll

[inland sentinel]

It’ll be way harder for new players to grasp Poe 1 for different reasons

[safe lance]

FWIW these stashes didnt carry over from poe1, MAP, FRAGMENT, DIV CARD.

[inland sentinel]

Yeah no maps, no fragments because they go in map device and no div cards (yet?)

[elfin hornet]

raises his hand, strikes random location in a random way. has atatck that hits everything on the field. This is impossible

[limpid flint]

poe1 banshee supporter pack just not showing at all in MTX tab for anyoneelse?

[safe lance]

I didnt buy anything in poe1 but had a bunch of free cosmetics from the mystery boxes, none of them are availabe in poe2.

Not even weta pet.

[frozen moon]

I have 12 Dex and cant wear my armor anymore. It says i need 12 dex, and i have 12 dex, but the "dex" text is red...

[safe lance]

that doesnt sound right, screenshot?

[frozen moon]

Im on PS5...

[inland sentinel]

Bug or you actually need 24?

[patent charm]

Hi, how we can swap weapon for 1 skill and respawn for a other automaticly ?

[gray zodiac]

never tried that support, but a couple other minions gems i tried with it do not work...I truly believe there is an issues with it

[proven vapor]

is there a reason i can't put mana tempest inside a cast on shock?

[safe lance]

I am also on PS5, you can either use PS app or if that is too much work, just post picture of screen using your phone.

[proven vapor]

no, only them dying does

[safe lance]

character page and then the item itself

[wintry oriole]

for the second ascendency chaos trial do i need to do all 10 trials?

[torn inlet]

raging spirits cant exactly die

[proven vapor]

sure they can

[frozen moon]

can i send u a dm?

[torn inlet]

they dont have HP

[safe lance]

sure

[proven vapor]

yeah they do?

[sour skiff]

How do I unlock the currency exchange thingie?

[proven vapor]

i was running a build entirely focused around raging spirits proccing minion death comets

[prime marsh]

No only 4.

[safe lance]

Talk to Finn in act 1 cruel

[tacit knot]

Basically every boss fight. Final boss a1. Jamanra. The boss before that. They so fast and hard

[hearty sandal]

i just bought stash tabs and it doesnt show any squares in the Gem + Flask Tab.

Bonus Question:
When i ctr+click it doesnt sort the item where it belongs (e.g. currency in the currency tab, it just moves it in the active tab)

[proven vapor]

infernal legion+frenzy+minion instability kills them quite quickly actually

[sour skiff]

oh, thats gonna take time

[patent charm]

Hi, how we can swap weapon for 1 skill and respawn for a other automaticly ?

[prime marsh]

There's a support gem built around them dying and exploding.

[torn inlet]

does it work tho?

[plush anchor]

if an item has quality % i salvage it on the bench right

[prime marsh]

Yes.

[tacit knot]

Ill try pfff

[prime marsh]

I'm running them with 100% ignite change, elemental exposure and detonate on death.

[proven vapor]

i was running a build entirely focused around that for all of a2, a3 and some of a1c

[inland sentinel]

Idk yeah either it’s build dependent, or you just have to be really good at predicting the next move.

[proven vapor]

it works great

[torn inlet]

how do they die then since the tooltip indicates they dont get attacked by the enemy

[proven vapor]

who cares

[inland sentinel]

Bosses I’ve killed in like less than 3 tries each

[prime marsh]

There's also support gems that make them take dmg. Or killthemselves tod o more dmg.

[proven vapor]

they take collateral damage, infernal legion works

[prime marsh]

Or the fire skeletons you can also use to literally detonate your skull minions.

[willow heart]

If I'm in a party but in different zones, are party mechanics still in effect?

[heavy fable]

right click the tab and check the box that says affinity

[proven vapor]

eh those really suck at it

[prime marsh]

They do, but it's an option none the less.

[real abyss]

can anyone help with Azarian ?

[proven vapor]

true

[torn inlet]

no you're telling me them expiring normally isnt death and game says they cant be targeted by enemies and they dont show me an hp anywhere so im wondering

HOW do they die

[prime marsh]

They literally pull aggro.

[placid dock]

What's the name of this Rare Finisher Effect?

[heavy fable]

does anybody know how to make Lingering Illusion work?

[torn inlet]

game says they dont

so does my experience

[prime marsh]

Then listen to the game and don't figure it out for yourself. We're telling you what we know.

[proven vapor]

they dont need to pull aggro to die

[hearty sandal]

for some reason i cant click on it

[torn inlet]

they

dont get hit

by enemy attacks

[heavy fable]

the cirlce next to currency

[prime marsh]

What is your question my boy.

There are ways for them to take dmg and die.

Built into the game.

What are you trying to figure out?

[proven vapor]

idk man, my entire build was focused around them dying so i'm pretty sure it works

[prime marsh]

That's what I'm saying.

Man's just trying to argue.

[inland sentinel]

Corpse explosion?

[prime marsh]

They're not considered corpses.

[proven vapor]

nah just cast on minion death comet spam

[cyan galleon]

what does this mean?

[inland sentinel]

Or low hp minion explosion

[torn inlet]

you say you have a build around it but you're not explaining what makes them die because the game says they dont interact with enemy attacks

[prime marsh]

That looks like chopped flavor text.

[proven vapor]

they do interact with enemy attacks though

also infernal legion+frenzy+minion instability

[prime marsh]

Did we not mention support gems that make them die?

Multiple times?

[hearty sandal]

ahhhh alright thx

[torn inlet]

no you said there is ways you didnt tell me WHAT i can do to make them actually die

[prime marsh]

ALRIGHT.

[ripe nexus]

how to get advanced dualstring bow

[torn inlet]

and my question was

[proven vapor]

.

[torn inlet]

their expiration due to time

which happens naturally

[rustic locust]

Can anyone explain why Ghost Dance costs 30 aura...but when I slot it in, it then costs 40? 🤔

[torn inlet]

does that count as death or not

that' sit

[proven vapor]

yeah the answer to that is no

[bold ridge]

wHEN I TRY GO IN MAP it logs me out why?

[frank sonnet]

is the tornado chicken the "hard" boss in trial of chaos? Because I have got this stupid bird 9 times in a row now and it's so goddamn stupid

[prime marsh]

And it doesn't say that they don't attack them it says they dont "Directly Engage" your minions.

[heavy fable]

prefix is the basic type, all affixes are prefix or suffix and items have limited numbers of each...tier shows how strong it is...the words after are the tags for deterministic craftin like essences

[proven vapor]

bird feels like the easy one for me

[heavy fable]

you're prolly using a support that adds to the spirit cost

[prime marsh]

SO they don't take priority. But they can be hit.

[slate surge]

Does weapon held in slot 2 gives any stats?

[rustic locust]

Oh right, I'll check that. Thanks a mill 🙂

[prime marsh]

Only when you're holding the weapon @slate surge

[frank sonnet]

there's 2 birds I think, one is signficantly easier than the other. The thing that kills me is always the tornado phase

[wintry oriole]

question: i'm on cruel difficulty of the game now after doing act 3... do i need to go back to act 3 to do my ascendency trials?

[prime marsh]

But you can run a secondary weapon that has a buff on it and hotswap between that and your primary.

Works great for bosses.

[rustic locust]

feel so dumb 😂 thanks for that - that was driving me nuts

[prime marsh]

Get used to that, I was missing 1 spirit for a loooooooong time.

[heavy fable]

probably...either that or unlock the trial zones in cruel

[proven vapor]

i dont remember a tornado attack, do you remember the actual name of it?

[rustic locust]

I'm running Herald of Ice and Ghost Dance on my Monk and couldn't for the life of me figure that out 🙈 so much to this game. I kinda love how grueling it is

[slate surge]

So both my slot 1 weapons attributes gets nullified as soon as I attack with slot 2 weapon then both my sloth 2 weapon attributes and stats activate?

[prime marsh]

Yes.

If I have +70% fire dmg on my main staff and switch to a different staff I won't have that 70% added fire dmg.

[molten wasp]

Where should I go for builds?

[ionic marsh]

i equipped and activated combat frenzy but its not generating frenzy or power charges even though im shocking targets?

[prime marsh]

Not until I switch back. SO you could use hot swap for weaponsthat have massive mana regain and the "mana drain" ability for example.

[frank sonnet]

the boss? there are 3 random bosses, the chicken is bahlak

[slate surge]

Damn If I knew this earlier I would have invest in bow or something but it does req more optimizations and stats no?

[urban iris]

I have mine from mobalytics.gg

[proven vapor]

oh i was thinking of the other bird, yeah that guy's annoying af

[prime marsh]

Depends on what you're wanting to run.

[neat nest]

Hey guys, the sale for tabs is up, which one yall recommend me to buy?

[main dragon]

whats grants 30% increased elemental ailment threshold refer to like am i sturdier or do i inflict ailment on others better ??

[neat nest]

In abundance?

[prime marsh]

If i'm running staffs and I'm fully spec'd into int. Running another staff/magic shield/wand makes sense.

[slate surge]

I have a minion build so its very restricting they just disappear

[urban iris]

Currency, unique and maybe skill gems since this game will have a LOT of them.

[frank sonnet]

I have run the chaos trial 10 times now, the first one was uxmal but I took a 50% mana regen penalty and screwed myself, the next 9 in a row have been bahlak

[lapis radish]

where do you farm for more coins for trial of sekhemas? does it matter?

[prime marsh]

https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1309218816596906067 Hop in here robust.

[urban iris]

And if you can spare a bit more, maybe the quad tabs.

[neat nest]

So 1 currency tab or?

[urban iris]

Yes only buy them once each

[molten wasp]

Same, but idk if it's a good source

[urban iris]

Don't be dumb like me and buy some tabs twice.

[torpid coyote]

i keep getting trials of strength coins... how do I get different trials?

[urban iris]

I think its alright until they get path of building up for poe2.

[safe lance]

Any new info on when we get "teleport to checkpoint"?

[slate summit]

which stashes should I get?

[vernal elbow]

omg someone anybody help. I made a witch and the sceptre gives me 100 spirit and force summons warriors. I picked archers but I cant summon them because I dont have enough spirit 😂 How do I unsummon the warriors I cant for the life of me figure it out. Ive been scouring google and youtube for the past 40 minutes my god.

[sick spindle]

what skill triggers cast on ignite?

[urban iris]

Currency, unique and maybe skill gems and if you can spare more, quad tabs.

[proven vapor]

is there any way to bind a skill to one of your loadouts beyond it being an implicit on it?

[proven vapor]

ooh tysm

just grabbed a sigil of power staff for my other loadout

[fossil spoke]

Stashes are on sale, which ones to get for a new player?

[rigid wasp]

Any tips for horse bro in the beginning of act two? I'm playing a witch and I find my minions dying almost instantly and I can't stop to cast or I get one-shot

[late drum]

is there a trade channel on this discord server?

[inland sentinel]

No

Hello. Ive been playing wasd merc and today started happening that if I move and shoot/cast anything at the same time the movement bugs out and gets stuck in a stutter? can anyone help?

[fair path]

anyone got any ideia about the sacrificial heart drop condtion? been i while and i havent got yet

on act 3

[clear vine]

How do you use power charges?

[flint plume]

Currency and at least one premium or quad are most important. Could jsut get currency and a bunch of premiums if you want. Gem tab is nice in PoE2. Map tab isn't in PoE2 yet but will probably be nice in endgame when they add it (it's one of the best tabs in PoE1)

[fresh blaze]

Whats a good quarter staff for a lighning monk in act 2? like what stats do I look for?

[fossil spoke]

I was told by a streamer right now that it's best to get Premium 6x Stash Bundle cuz its on sale + currency and gems

Do I go for it?

[frank sonnet]

he's overtuned and kind of a dick tbh, you can dodge most of his attakcs, but I beat him by bugging his AI and the adds stopped attacking and he only did melee attacks

[rigid wasp]

Okay well I don't know how to bug him and I don't think I want to cheat, so that doesn't help too much

[kindred swallow]

The single biggest tip anyone can get is to embrace trading. This is a trading focused game. Solo self found is not a thing. Nothing good will drop and nothing you craft will be good. Use your currency and learn to use the trading website and you can massively upgrade your gear for very cheap. Every exalt you find can be a huge upgrade. Even alchemy. Completely turned my game around once I started trading.

[woeful niche]

is Cast on Shock disabled right now?

[limpid echo]

How to teleport to Guild Hideout?

[cedar blaze]

you have to put a skill gem as a support gem in cast on spells

[woeful niche]

ahhh

thank you

[frozen latch]

any tips or stuff recomendation for trial of chaos pls ?

[coral cave]

i cant go in Trials i got a crash an error message that the Server cant Syncron Terrain with client. Any solution for that ? Restart etc dont fix it ... 😦

[woeful blaze]

Close the trial. It's binned. Start a new one.

[torn kestrel]

i am only getting trials: 2 sekhema things, the whole ascendency thing seems fucked for me

[spiral rampart]

imo its better to pick many different lvl1 mods intstead of upgrading ones that you already have

[kindred swallow]

I heard we can do Sekhema again to ascend 2 rather than do chaos?

[woeful blaze]

I think 2nd sekhema is a lot harder than first chaos

[frank sonnet]

I don't really have tips but the thing that is really pissing me off about the chaos trial is that there are 3 bosses and they're all legit difficult, but it takes 10 minutes to do 1 attempt on them and because there's three, you learn at 1/3 the speed. The first sekhema boss was very easy which seemed fair since it takes so much effort to get an attempt on him

[woeful blaze]

And you have unlimited tries on 1st chaos

[kindred swallow]

In a combat way or a bullshit mechanics way?

[mint bison]

Yes

[whole mountain]

ancient vows - how to insert the relicts ? i think its buggy

[slim blade]

If you struggle with it a lot, I would recommend just over leveling and then go back. I cleared it when I was level 65 lol

[granite sphinx]

Can anyone tell me does the trials of Sekhemas boss scale based on your level? I couldn’t beat him earlier wondering if now with more skill and power it will be easier or if boss will scale

[kindred swallow]

No you can over level him

[frank sonnet]

I am 10 levels over and it's still a struggle tbh. Although I have done 12 attempts now and I got the chimera boss first time, the vulture boss once, and then 10 fucking goes in a row on the tornado chicken boss

seriously that guy can eat my whole ass

[slim blade]

He won't scale to your level.

[kindred swallow]

All anyone needs to do is trade for an op weapon.

[granite sphinx]

It’s the honor mechanic I always die to, not damage itself. I hate the trials

[frozen latch]

LOL best advice

[safe lance]

The real important levels in this game are the ones that get you notable passives.

[timid flax]

in the Valley of Titans, with the idol thing you need 2 pieces of to complete and put on the altar... you pick one thing you want between charms and flasks... do you get the other one you didnt pick when you do it in act 5?

[slim blade]

Yea I wasn't going to waste my time on it. I came back at 65 and cleared it first try, was a breeze

[safe lance]

or yes, getting a better weapon is more impactful than getting +5 dex from 1 level in most cases.

[buoyant kiln]

I can't enter the map after using waystone. the same problem even though I bought new waystones many times. Does anyone know how to solve this?

[terse trellis]

Just got my first legendary. It's unidentified and has 2 sockets. Is this unusual?

[whole mountain]

im in front of the titan in the valley of titans and im not able to insert the relics

[kindred swallow]

Identify it

[young shuttle]

what is the best 1button build atm? 🙂

[frank sonnet]

no. It's also a unique, not legendary

[frank sonnet]

uniques are unique, they're not necessarily good

[cedar blaze]

send us the unique's stats

[cedar blaze]

when identified 😭

[sullen widget]

Im level 38. can i use a 4 socketed gem yet? when is the earliest?

[terse trellis]

I thought the sockets might be an unusual bonus to the legendary

[harsh bison]

Has anyone been successful at running the first trial with a warrior yet?

[cedar blaze]

I had to help my warrior friend as a sorc for that lmao

[whole mountain]

im act5 in front of the statue in the valley of the titans- i cant insert the relics even tho it says so... any ideas ? i did all the pre stuff etc. it says i gotta insert them

[frank sonnet]

not hugely and it's easy to add them anyway

[hybrid fractal]

i failed the merc lab and now the key thing is gone what do i do?

[harsh bison]

Damn.. yeah it's kinda what I figured

[lapis inlet]

what should I do so that i won t fall damage-wise every time i go into a new map?

[terse trellis]

Ahh okay. In Diablo 2 I'd imagine this would be a bigger deal

[static gorge]

Can I get help with act 2 cruel

[torpid coyote]

does physical damage increase poison damage?

[glad cedar]

Is there a way to use a skill gem to get lower level skill? for example, can I use a lvl 10 gem to get lvl 9 skill? I don't have enough stats for a skill i'm trying to use.

[frank sonnet]

farm another key

[cedar blaze]

nope

[lapis inlet]

when i go into another zone i just don t deal damage anymore

and my damage falls drastically

[cedar blaze]

upgrade the equipment

[lapis inlet]

how

[cedar blaze]

or rebuild the build

[neat nest]

Uuugh guys I bough so much stuff that like

[hybrid fractal]

i failed the merc lab and now the key thing is gone what do i do? i forgot where to get the key ...

[cedar blaze]

trade, use crafting materials, farm some bosses, get more support skills

[slim blade]

level up and keep checking vendors for better weapons

[lapis inlet]

don t vendors just throw you random shit?

[cedar blaze]

no?

there is some good shit

[lapis inlet]

i just got a yellow rarity mace and until then i just don t get anything

[slim blade]

no bro, they're one of the best source for items if you're SSF

[lapis inlet]

better

or idk what vendors you re talking about

[hybrid fractal]

melee ?

[cedar blaze]

the ones at the town

[rocky lotus]

Looking for help with the molten vault boss please.

[lapis inlet]

u mean campfire?

[slim blade]

Ones in town, they refresh every time you level up. Always check

[cedar blaze]

whatever you want to call Clearfell Encampment

[lapis inlet]

isn t finn just selling random weapons?

lol

[karmic crater]

Im currently stuck in act 2. I dont have enough damage to get through it so i need to reskill but i cant afford it. Do any of you know a decent area to farm gold?

[lapis inlet]

or whatever was the guy that sells maces called

[cedar blaze]

Can definintely sell it for an exalted orb

just browse the ships at the ardura caravan in act 2 or clearfell encampment in act 1 or if you have reached act 3 go there

[terse trellis]

I'm too new to Poe. Gonna just give my orbs to my friend and ask him to figure it out lol

[lapis inlet]

like, i m playing slots with that guy

[sick raptor]

I'm not seeing it, why can I not refund the green node?

[lapis inlet]

idk where is the good shit

[cedar blaze]

Its not complicated, learning yourself will be much more beneficial for you

[sick raptor]

blue is the direct connection to the rest, green doesn't connect anything or at least I'm not seeing it

[viral cargo]

does that mean I have 4 points to spend? how to spend them?

[sick raptor]

I wish we could just set up an entire new skill tree and the game would tell us the total cost

[terse trellis]

How many Exalted Orbs do most people have around lvl 22/ First Trial

[karmic crater]

Im currently stuck in act 2. I dont have enough damage to get through it so i need to reskill but i cant afford it. Do any of you know a decent area to farm gold?

[tulip stirrup]

0

[viral cargo]

i had about 10 by then

[nimble crypt]

guys which one should i buy? i already have Quad, Gem and Currency tabs, i dont have enough for anything else(with the sale today i can get 1 of those)
which would be more useful?

[torpid coyote]

top bar says 0. you have 0 points to spend. if you select weapon set 1 or weapon set 2 next time you can divide thsoe points between two different paths if you want.

[cedar blaze]

1-2 from trading

[lapis inlet]

do i need to pray to the RNG that i get good items when i buy them or

[cedar blaze]

Also check out the other vendors

[iron rose]

How do I zoom out my mini map

[terse trellis]

Your answer is very different from 0 and 1-2. 🤔

[cedar blaze]

Hold Tab

[viral cargo]

thx, but wdym by next time

[torpid coyote]

Next level up

I don't believe its worth investing them in separate trees especially early on cause what are the odds you have two great weapons (:

[viral cargo]

yeah thats called rng or maybe bc I'm fully uncovering all maps and killing everything before I move on

i maxed out 1 weapon and boots and still have that at lvl 26

[torn sierra]

boi i thought i was good to try an unlock my subclass. no friging way. So want to be an invoker

[iron rose]

Not working

[torn sierra]

Do i need to be higher then lvl 22 to do it?

[viral cargo]

honestly i got most my exalted orbs pre lvl20, i somehow got lucky then and unlucky now

[cedar blaze]

wym, a bigger map doesn't appear on your screen in the middle?

[iron rose]

No I meant my mini map and the bigger map is zoomed in

[inland ibex]

my network bar jumps up whenever i lag / hitch, does that mean it's an issue on my end?

[nimble crypt]

Guys what do i get? please help

[cedar blaze]

no sorry, your thing is not a feature

[sinful carbon]

I'm new to Path of Exile 2. First character I made is the Witch.
I'm looking to go primarily if not entirely Ice/Snow build, should I reset to choose Sorceress or stick to Witch?

[nimble crypt]

i can only afford 1, i have currency, gem and quad tab

[cedar blaze]

why did you choose witch?

[lapis inlet]

there is only one vendor that sells maces what

[viral cargo]

lag can be caused by a network spike, or your pc has some kind of interrupt problem that lags the whole system for a short time, but that's rather rare

[sinful carbon]

I was debating on running Ice with Bones spells. And I preferred her cosmetically

[iron rose]

how do i zoom the mini map out on the top right

[spiral rampart]

settings->interface

[inland ibex]

poe2 is the only game i've having consistent lag / hitching issues
doesn't matter if it's the only thing i have open or if i have netflix or twitch open too
computer has enough specs, i got wired ethernet and i don't lag or hitch on any other game
i reduced the graphics to medium just incase, and still the same issues : (

[lapis inlet]

is warrior that bad that you have ONLY one vendor for weapons that are NOT 2 handed?

jesus christ

[iron rose]

Ty idk how it changed on its own

[inland ibex]

i can still play but that .3-ish seconds that my game hitches, i can get hit

[full flame]

Its been happening to everyone for a bit

Just lagspikes every couple seconds

[viral cargo]

no i dont have that issue

i get screen tearing occasionally, but no lag spikes

[spiral rampart]

thats a known problem in poe2,every single evening my ping is something between 20 and 2000

[viral cargo]

maybe choose a different server

could be that your routing is unreliable

[inland ibex]

i'll see if there's somewhere closer than london

[spiral rampart]

nah

[viral cargo]

im playing at a server very close to me

[lapis inlet]

is poe2 that lackluster or am i missing something

cause wtf

[cedar blaze]

?

[sinful carbon]

Anyone able to help answer this question?

[lapis inlet]

?

[granite sphinx]

Anyone playing as witch or similar would you recommend: Despair or Dark effigy? I like to use contagion a lot. So what goes better with contagion - despair that makes them more vulnerable to chaos damage, or effigy that shoots projectiles at those enemies with chaos damage?

[viral cargo]

i enjoy the lack of dopamine boosts at every corner, but its also EA

[cedar blaze]

go craft those weapons, farm bosses, trade

gamble for them, find them in shops eventually

[lapis inlet]

how and what the fuck am i supposed to farm lol

[cedar blaze]

Bosses

[muted urchin]

how do you get to load screen if u tried BES / Lasso and u still cant load in

[craggy willow]

hi im a monk using the lightning gems, i found a hammer and wand, am i able to use these and still have lightning powers or how does switching weapons work?

[fossil spoke]

I just got the Premium Stash, so how do I start selling stuff?

[spiral rampart]

right click it and make it public,then put an item and set its price

[torpid coyote]

The lack of variety of weapons is really apparent right now. I kinda agree farming for one handed warrior weapons is gonna suck since you literally can't do anything to help it along

[frozen dome]

hi, playing as lightning arrow ranger, can someone help me with trade link to buy some bow? 2-3 ex, max level 39? my dmg is low 😦 not sure what should I scale

[lapis inlet]

so building a warrior with one handed mace is like making myself weak on purpose?

[spiral rampart]

try lightning dmg and projectile damage

[lapis inlet]

cause that s what it feels like

[torpid coyote]

I'm not farming warrior currently so I don't know if one handed warrior is good or bad.

[cedar blaze]

Send a photo of your current mace/weapon and your level

[sick mortar]

i dont understand, they said they updated drops so that unique bosses being killed would always drop a yellow/rare item. how come i still get all blues on them?

[lapis inlet]

lvl 12

didn t get anything better than that, i just wasted money on gambling for a new mace

[pearl peak]

how do i increase spirit?

[craggy gyro]

Any build for Witch based on curses and chaos damage that I can use early until I get hex?

[lost dagger]

Is sorceress still viable for a casual player? im low level and not far into the game but its the class that interested me most by far...

[spiral rampart]

what tier?

[craggy gyro]

if you build lightning yes

[frank sonnet]

sure

[small pivot]

Physical, any elemental dmg, or increase elemental dmg, attack speed. If you rich get + projectile skill lvl

[cedar blaze]

for one regal orb, you could get this dude

hell, 5 augmentation orbs

[lost dagger]

Yay thats what i wanted to build anyway, frost never interested me much (i heard that it got nerfed heavily)

[cedar blaze]

doubling, tripling your damage

[simple token]

So I killed the boss at the same time he killed me, can i not get down there for the quest item now?

[candid vector]

Kicked from the game 3 times in the past hour. Hardwired connection. Internet is fine. .-.

[pearl ivy]

LF help with the forgemaster boss on normal. I'm kinda hopeless, with all physical and fire melee warrior (ingame name: Grozl)

[lapis inlet]

oh well, let me farm 100 hours in the zones that i can deal decent damage so i can get 10 orbs cause god fucking dammit they don t drop at all

[glad bison]

anyone think like me : Trial was bettter in POE1 ? 😄

[cedar blaze]

its orb of augmentation, i have like 50 of them

they are much more common than exalted or regal

[craggy gyro]

find a base and use transmute orb and aug orb should give you %phys or flat dmg and if that aint good its the game fault lol

[upper pasture]

Can anyone help me understand more exactly what magnitude does? Thanks

[cedar blaze]

maybe warrior is just too hard for you, a sorcerer or a witch could be better

[cedar blaze]

like in the passive skill tree

[frozen dome]

ty

[cedar blaze]

?

[upper pasture]

Yeah, I get it makes debuffs stronger but I can't tell if that means more damage or just stronger effect, like more slow, or longer freeze etc

[craggy gyro]

those classes are harder than warrior tbh

[lapis inlet]

not normal rarity

[craggy gyro]

the game is in a very bad state actually xd

[lapis inlet]

and it says target is not magic

[terse trellis]

Can the Ogham sword skin be used on a hammer? (or anything yet?)

[ember hawk]

Hey, I didnt get the reward Act 1+30 spirit despite doing it twice, is there a solution plz?

[cedar blaze]

Exactly as you say, it just increases the strength of the specific buff

[velvet edge]

I have 130 spirit but only 30 base

[cedar blaze]

Its okay, just let it out

[velvet edge]

does this need 60 base??

[lapis inlet]

guess i regret buying this game ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[upper pasture]

So not more damage? What if you got a bunch of magnitude on poison?

[frank sonnet]

yep

[winter portal]

How do I refund these stat points because when I click to refund them it just asks what stats I want

[velvet edge]

Damn I get more this act all good

[cedar blaze]

Maybe the genre is not for you or the game is just too difficult, that's okay

[lapis inlet]

i like the idea but i don t like gambling and losing my money for nothing

like jesus fucking christ

[cedar blaze]

Ugh, the explanation is so vague. I am trying to understand

[lapis inlet]

and can t even use skill orbs

[upper pasture]

Is it a combination of EVERYTHING a debuff does? Damage, slows, freeze everything? Just a multiplicative of that debuff on everything it does?

[viral cargo]

what does that mean? what are maraketh shrines?

[cedar blaze]

Gambling is one of the less safe options

[glad wedge]

is armor% global or local modifier? what about if it's on a ring?

[lapis inlet]

i just wasted my money on random maces that don t even have more than 1 upgrades on them

[upper pasture]

Yes it is vague, and it's driving me insane because idk if I should skill into it.

[lapis inlet]

and those were useless

wasted 2k for that btw

aka ~3hours of farming

[cedar blaze]

Gambling be like that

[haughty island]

just finished 1st floor of sanctum trial can i leave now or will it be gone tomorow

[cedar blaze]

Okay I think I might understand somehow

[cedar blaze]

When you hit someone with poison, they can become poisoned. If they do, they take extra damage over time equal to 20% of the initial hit's damage.

If you're using Poisonburst Arrow, this extra poison damage is boosted by 20%.

That's my hypothesis

[lapis inlet]

so now besides farming for another 10 hours i can t do shit to progress, right?

cause i don t have orbs to even upgrade that

and i can t upgrade my skills even, cause i have 11 lvl 2 skill orbs things

[ebon turret]

my gear is cheeks

[dusk lily]

So how many ascendancy points we can claim in poe2？

[flint plume]

8

[dusk lily]

Okay I see

[compact crypt]

website down?

[pulsar forge]

can someone give/sell me a lvl 4 spirit gem?

[exotic phoenix]

yep

[cedar blaze]

yep

[vapid pumice]

trade down??

[viral cargo]

what to do with all that sacred water? i can barely use 5 at a time if im lucky

[pulsar forge]

trade is down

[dusk lily]

Do we get it all done in main normal&cruel

[amber rune]

same...

[safe lance]

My herald of ice should cost 42 spirit with cold pen support, but its only costing base cost 30?

[cedar blaze]

yep

4 in normal

4 in cruel afaik

[dusk lily]

@flint plume do we get all the points in normal&cruel campaign

Okay

[night estuary]

Does anyone know if you still split all loot when you play together still? was that intended or bugged?

[tall pagoda]

i hear a lot of talk about stashes now there is a sell but there are sooo many stashed which one is worth the money?

[cedar blaze]

depending on the parties loot setting, its gonna be different

[cedar blaze]

buy a premium upgrade/premium and a currency one if you want the neccessary ones

[trim dew]

hello all, would anyone be able to explain the different elemental icons found on enemy health bars. i know they have something to do with resistances and weakness, but i cant seem to decipher the color code lol

[night estuary]

Did they fix the bug where you kept getting matchmade with other players?

[dull jacinth]

Currency ones & premium if you want to trade/customize tabs.

[torn sierra]

man these trails are rough as melee

[crystal parcel]

are sorcs stronger than mercs in the beginning? My buddy is melting basically all the bosses I was struggeling with :c

[flint plume]

Currency and at least one premium or quad definitely. Map tab isn't in PoE2 yet but might be nice for endgame once it's out. Gem tab is nice in PoE2 right now but not essential.

[cedar blaze]

afaik, yellow is high resistance
white is for low/med resistance
red is low/none

[trim dew]

ah okay

i thought red was a weakness lmfao

but in hindsight it may have been wrong lmfao

[flint plume]

I haven't tried merc yet but I've heard it's tough early on. Seems like sirc and ranger have the earliest time very early because they get very good skills rkght at the beginning

[flint plume]

Pretty sure it is. Or at least can be.

[tall pagoda]

thanks gamers

[arctic frost]

how to teleport between checkpoint,, i cant click the checkpoint

[cedar blaze]

probably? red should actually be weakness

[cedar blaze]

not in the game yet

[crystal parcel]

okay makes sense

[arctic frost]

owh no wonder

[tall scroll]

Does anyone know when level 3 supportgems are dropping? Currently in act 1 cruel

[cedar blaze]

should start dropping around level 53

[tall scroll]

nice okay, I'm 1 level off then

[velvet charm]

is there a way for spell to leech?

[frank sonnet]

no ways to leech mana, a small number of ways to leech life

not sure about ES

[boreal frigate]

only ES leech im aware of is chayula monk ascendancy point

[cedar blaze]

there is the mana drain

[small pivot]

You need to be in area lv53, not your lvl anyway

[rustic basalt]

Where is the feedback channel for poe2?

[cedar blaze]

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-forum/2213

[worn glacier]

just confirming, increased freeze threshold will be a negative effect right? takes longer to freeze?

[cedar blaze]

where are you finding the effect?

[shut ledge]

can someone help me understand what it means by leeches x% of phys damage as life? does this mean it'll drain my health?

[worn glacier]

on a jewel

[cedar blaze]

when you hit someone, 5.72% of the damage becomes your health

[cyan gorge]

Was I supposed to do the trial of chaos before I got to cruel? I couldn’t do it and just went on..

[cedar blaze]

you don't have to, you just have less ascendancy points

[shut ledge]

ohhh so is it a good stat then?

[cedar blaze]

its a positive one

[shut ledge]

not sure if i should buy it. im going deadeye lightning ranger

[shut ledge]

ah okay! thanks :D

[cyan gorge]

Probably stupid but you mean I have less rn where I am or I’ll get less overall? 🥲

[cedar blaze]

less rn

[cyan gorge]

Ok phew thanks

That trial of chaos was impossible no way I could do it where I was lol

[cedar blaze]

That's fair

[small pivot]

It’s mean your attack have life steal, and you recovery hp over time it not instant like other game anyway

[rare aspen]

do support gems scale off of their respective attribute?

[gaunt phoenix]

guys total witch newb here- can someone tell me what im doing wrong? I unlocked skeleton sniper, but its not summoning and this is greyed out. Why?

[rare aspen]

Martial tempo sounds nice for my 2 hander warrior but does the effect scale with dex?

[sudden loom]

what stash tabs should i get

[ebon turret]

is this good at level 20?

[small pivot]

Press G and manually edit how many you want to summon

[torn sierra]

sigh can't even do the first rail lol, how the heck do i do this as melee

[gaunt phoenix]

Ohhhhhhhh

[sacred leaf]

sorry but im new... I got some equipment and left it in the instance when i got new armor & i lost lightning rod & cant equip it. anyone know where i can tell what im missing to be able to use it again ?

[gaunt phoenix]

tyvm

[clear notch]

Heya,
So I basically just respecced my entire Sorceress after going for the first Ascendancy but when going for a new passive buff I somehow ended up falling short of the required spirit despite having enough?
Im using an Amulet that bumps my spirit up to 61 from the normal 31 I have "by default" and the buff (cast on shock) supposedly reserves 60 spirit so it should check out?

[dire shuttle]

Can someone help me with trial of chaos?

[cedar blaze]

you have to put a spell gem into the cast on shock support slot

[small pivot]

Upgrade premium stash tab, premium stash tab, currency tab, gem tab, quad premium tab

[rustic basalt]

Who here would like the items to be there after they die?

[clear notch]

So it only works when I put a spell into it?

[ripe nexus]

can you get orbs back through salvaging

[cedar blaze]

yes, with the spell that you put it in

[lost nexus]

Is my game bricked? This is my second character through the campaign and Doryani won't speak to me.

[cedar blaze]

you can get a chance orb through the salvage of 10 uniques

[rustic basalt]

Also who agrees the water hags need to be nerf into the ground in the drowned city.

[clear notch]

Thanks a lot homie
The "not enough spirit" thing threw me off cause it really doesnt make sense

[ripe nexus]

what does a chance orb do

[frank sonnet]

turns a white item into a random rarity

[cedar blaze]

unpredictably turns a white item into an unique or destroys it

[torn sierra]

is there any trick to these trails? i lose to honour and i just get hit a lot as monk

[cedar blaze]

https://tenor.com/view/dodge-the-matrix-swerve-lunge-dive-gif-22197111

[dire shuttle]

Anyone could help me with trail of chaos?

[wicked garnet]

just completed it as a monk... it's hard but you gotta move away from attacks

[tiny cosmos]

Would it be better to simply upgrade the 4 stash tabs we get base to a Premium over purchasing the Quad Stash Tab? 40 gold vs 120 gold with the 300 we start with

[torn sierra]

i do lol

i dont stand in the red lol

[small pivot]

What build you using, I got it in first try, only trials of chaos give me a hard time

[torn sierra]

lighting tempest flurry with bell

im a noob to poe

[frank sonnet]

it's hard as melee, overlevelling and coming back with a big honour pool helps

[ebon turret]

i hate these spiders shooting webs on you

[torn sierra]

how you get more honour

[wary zealot]

I'm new to path of exile and i have a question about enemy weaknesses and resistances, where are these indicated on the enemy

[lucid inlet]

may anyone please help me with the 3rd ascendency trial 🙂

[frank sonnet]

basically, yes. Quad is for dump tab and stuff

[viral cargo]

run a few trials and check every chest for relics, once you have a bit honour resistance its much(!) easier

[cedar blaze]

top right under the health bar

[frank sonnet]

little icons under their health bar, at the right hand end

[torn sierra]

so the relics give more okay

[tardy mauve]

is this bugged?

[wary zealot]

thanks so the weaknesses are red and resistance normal color?

[tardy mauve]

cruel act 2

[cedar blaze]

weakneses ar red, white ones are medium resistances and yellow is high resistance afaik

[grizzled dew]

noob question, how does crit damage interact with simple damage increase nodes. do the two stack or are they seperate?

[wary zealot]

awesome thank you :)!

[cedar blaze]

No worries, enjoy the game!

[frank sonnet]

this one for example, I think this means she has good frost resist and bad fire resist

[wary zealot]

Thank you! im trying to play with no guides or builds, and having never played before it is quite intense haha

[cedar blaze]

hell yeah

don't follow builds

[little moth]

monk ascension, invoker or acolyte?

[cedar blaze]

You gonna learn much more

[little moth]

same here, it's painful but more rewarding imo

[wise light]

Ah you like suffering

[viral cargo]

lol, game just told me a huge QoL tip: you can move overlay map around with arrow keys

[mighty gazelle]

Invoker is the most popular and easy to build around rn

[wary zealot]

Yeah thats what i figured, there are just little things that wern't ever clarified in the tutorial portion that I need to ask about haha, ie the resitances

[wary zealot]

I have yet to die but have shit my pants 3 times

[cedar blaze]

ask for mechanics, don't ask for builds is generally the way to go

[tardy mauve]

why all of my trial tokens have now this "allow you to choose...class"

[abstract helm]

#they still havent added changing ascendancies right?

[tardy mauve]

I already did it

[cedar blaze]

newest update

[timid flax]

i have more weapon set points than my friend ive played essentially the entire game with so far... any where to tell where she did not get them from?

[ocean whale]

guys is there a bug for mapping? I get kicked out and waste my way stone

[tardy mauve]

but 5h ago all of them had this

[ripe nexus]

what should i know or do before going into my first ascendancy

[cedar blaze]

Oh, then its weird

[cedar blaze]

Try your best and good luck

[wary zealot]

one more question, it seems like the areas reset, i killed all the mobs and the boss in one area and now they are back, im assuming this is normal and i just use waypoints to get around

[cyan gorge]

How come ppl list stuff on the trade website but then never respond when you whisper them? I noticed they were selling it for a lil cheaper than most. Is it just like they’re putting it up to flex or??

[cedar blaze]

Yep, if you leave an area, it resets in around 10 minutes. That way, you can farm bosses for gear and such

[wise light]

There will be times ^~^ it is inevitable unless you use very tanky builds/know all the mechanics already

[wary zealot]

perfect got it

tyty

[frank sonnet]

you can just ctrl click the entrance to make a new instance as well

[wary zealot]

now i will go and hopefully not die

[unreal leaf]

Did they nerf stun buildup on bosses? My heavy hit ascendancy perk doesn't seem to be working on them anymore and I need to completely fill their stun bars

[wary zealot]

im playing hardcore

[cedar blaze]

just make sure to 100% every map

[meager scarab]

Matlan Waterywats doesn't have a Waypoint?!

[cedar blaze]

nothing about stuns in the newest patch afaik

[cedar blaze]

nope

[meager scarab]

That's nuts. Thanks.

[vagrant valve]

how tf am I supposed to get new gear? or increase my damage? I got some good gear in act 1 and now I get nothing in act 2? How do I accomplish anything? I'm 2 levels above the zone I'm in and constantly dying

[cedar blaze]

you can, trade with people, gamble, buy off the merchants, grind bosses for loot

[meager scarab]

If you're struggling. Maybe consider using the Trade board and trade an exalted for a great upgrade.

[untold ice]

was this a good deal or did i just scam myself?

[mighty gazelle]

Check vendors regularly, craft shit, trade

[cedar blaze]

asking if its a good deal when its over is wild lmao

[rigid lintel]

Seems steep but it is 30% move so not awful

[warped idol]

hi all, best way to use 300 coin of the shop?

[vagrant valve]

I do all of that except trade. ugh. I never thought I'd have to resort to trading of all things

[cedar blaze]

stashes

[unreal leaf]

Yeah, nothing that I saw either, but still, used to get bosses heavy stunned around 50% of their stun bar with perks and now it seems like it's gotten meh

[cedar blaze]

that's part of the game

you can go SSF next time

[rigid lintel]

You can ssf grind if you want to, it will just take a while

[craggy gyro]

how to use gemcutters prism on life remnants??

[warped idol]

can u help me to chose? there are too much stash pack

[vagrant valve]

so basically merchants or crafting. got it. I've been doing that

[cedar blaze]

buy a premium upgrade/premium tab and a currency for bare minimum

[rigid lintel]

You definitely want a currency tab

[cedar blaze]

don't be shy and ignore trading if you are not SSF,

[rigid lintel]

The premium tab let's you sell things on trade

[mighty gazelle]

Maybe your build is the issue then, or you itemize wrong
Solo self found gameplay is fine right now for campaign

[unreal leaf]

Gems is a good one too

And one for uniques

[rigid lintel]

Act 2 you shouldn't be hitting a wall with found gear unless you're really unlucky

[craggy gyro]

is this good

[lunar cedar]

Did they nerf cast on shock along with cast on freeze?

[rigid lintel]

All of them

[fair path]

cast on gone

[mighty gazelle]

You can get stuck if your dmg relies on spirit gems at that point but that's a niche case

[vagrant valve]

Brother I hit a wall in Act 1 and Act 2. This game is literally just walls constantly.

[cedar blaze]

really good habibi

[craggy gyro]

23k tho 😭

[rigid lintel]

I will say the act 1 boss was the hardest in the game because you don't have good anything yet

[cedar blaze]

send me your weapon and level

[brave pagoda]

what does this mean?

[cedar blaze]

don't sell it?????? trade it for exalted orbs

[mighty gazelle]

It really isn't just send more info

[rigid lintel]

Top row, 20 from the left

[craggy gyro]

its to buy from shop

[sudden zealot]

Can I for example do a Tier 7 Map to clear the Tier 5 Map quest?

[wintry nexus]

What's the highest level skill gem?

[cedar blaze]

you are crying over gold?

[fair arch]

Hi does anyone know of any current "passive skill tree" guide that explains everything about the skill tree?

[cedar blaze]

get the exalted orbs

[rigid lintel]

Gold is the most valuable currency in the game to me

[cedar blaze]

fat money stacks

[cedar blaze]

there is not much to explain, you read a node and you click it if it fits your current playstyle

[craggy gyro]

how many

[fair arch]

yeah but I cant go backwards?

only forward?

[cedar blaze]

you can always respec

[cedar blaze]

check the trading site

[rigid lintel]

You can respec any node and continue from any purchased spot

[dusky burrow]

backwards? like, get a node you already got?

[frank sonnet]

respeccing costs a reasonable amount of gold but not so much that you need to be scared of it

[real mesa]

Jo Guys quick question, i Just got my 1st unique drop a Crossbow and would fit my build Bit Problem is IT makes only 10 DMG. And im on act 3 45 Level so question IS ,can i Upgrade IT to do more DMG Like 100+ or IS the drop worthless ?? Really Hope U can cause that would b awesome

[devout python]

Would you guys take a amulet with +1 to all skills or a unique that boosts mana + regen and energy shield a ton?

[craggy gyro]

i was but it just went down :c

[cedar blaze]

send the crossbow

with alt

info

[warped idol]

ok toke premium and currency, now remain 210

[real mesa]

How can i alt Info on ps5 ? Sec i try Brother , thank you

[frank sonnet]

depends on the skills you're using, how much of an issue mana is for you, and how much life/es you have and how safe you feel

+level is a lot of damage but mana is mana and es is staying alive

so choose the one you want more

[devout python]

True, im good on mana and survivability, so damage is prob best tbf

[cedar blaze]

just give me the name, i will look it up

[fair arch]

o wait nvm i can go backwards...haha... ok but like how do I acsess the other nodes? How do I go over where my mouse is pointing?

[real mesa]

@cedar blaze

[sonic moss]

Question: How do you get access to your supporter pack cosmetics like the kiwi in game?

[onyx umbra]

Hi guys im new, was just wondering if the stash tabs carry over to new characters/playthroughs?

[cedar blaze]

yes

[gaunt horizon]

Tried looking it up but there are all these "pick me" websites that want you to read this entire article.

Are the trials repeatable? I was curious if you can do them for gear?

[dusky burrow]

im blind, where is your mouse?

[real mesa]

@cedar blaze Name ist Something Like : (fogwhisper?)simple Crossbow

[fair arch]

ohh weird it doesnt screenshot... i mean I want to start at the Ranger start but I am a mercanry...

[dusky burrow]

you cannot

[frank sonnet]

yes, your characters in the same league share a stash anyway, and each new league you get all the tabs you purchased

[rigid lintel]

You just buy the passive skills all along the way in a line to get to where you want to go

[dusky burrow]

its one of the things class decides

[elfin hornet]

How does weapon switching work? If I switch from Crossbow to Bow I won't be able to use my crossbow skills and vice versa right?

[rigid lintel]

But that might not be ideal

[rare aspen]

I love how warrior knows literally everyone personally

[frank sonnet]

the warrior grew up in the act 1 area

[cedar blaze]

Uniques stay that way,

[dusky burrow]

yeah but you can set your bow skills to the bow set and vice versa so it swaps when u use the skill

[cedar blaze]

if you can use it, use it but you probably need something better

[floral plank]

i am brand new to poe i was thinking about just learnign as i go? can i do this or do i need to follow a build guide?

[fair arch]

ohhh ok. I guess the youtube video i watched was out of date they were saying you can start from any point.

[rigid lintel]

At the top right of the passive skill screen is a search bar, if you want projectile damage search for that and there might be a node further out that gives 30% or something

[cedar blaze]

Don't follow a guide, follow your heart. That's how you learn

[elfin hornet]

Does the swap take time or is it near instant?

[frank sonnet]

there are some guides now but there is tons of unsolved stuff in the game, no guarantee a guide is good. The game is very doable without one

[robust gulch]

How do you unlock more skill sockets?

[real mesa]

But how does a Level 41 unique can have 10 damage ?

[floral plank]

ok thanks! i was just worried about brickin gmy character

[exotic sparrow]

This, plus it’s more fun and you’ll get to play how you want rather than how someone else wanted

[rigid lintel]

Ah, I gotcha, yeah the very starting spot is based on class but you can buy any node from there

[frank sonnet]

you don't unless you're a mercenary and take a certain ascendancy

[cedar blaze]

That's uniques for you

[cedar blaze]

jewerly orbs

[robust gulch]

I mean for one skill

[fair arch]

can we multi-class later in the game? (like getting a second starting point)

[frank sonnet]

unique means unique, not good 😄

[haughty temple]

is there like aim assist or something for skills?

[frank sonnet]

later in the game jeweller's orbs drop

[robust gulch]

Care to explain?

[cedar blaze]

they are orbs like exalted or alchemy that drop from mobs

[real mesa]

Rly ? I thought unique IS the best category of Item you can get w Special effects on skills etc ? So there is No way to Upgrade ITS DMG to 100+?

[river sun]

anyone have the issue where you go to the next area game starts to lag and then computer totally freezes

[robust gulch]

So that will extend my skill with more sockets, ok…

[cedar blaze]

no haha

[frank sonnet]

the only thing you can do is add quality which will add a small amount of damage. Unique isn't "best", in fact for many builds rares are best, but uniques can do stuff other items can't

[cedar blaze]

its not the best, its the rarest

[frank sonnet]

if you press f1 it will show a graph that will show you what is making you lag

[haughty temple]

unique ironically means its not unique, its got a preset mods that may not be available elsewhere

[turbid kiln]

I got a bug where the gambling vendor in ther 2nd act I cant buy anything anyone know why? or how to fix???

[rigid lintel]

Like you might want to get to this node as it's +40% projectile damage

[real mesa]

@frank sonnet @cedar blaze thanks you Guys , i might missunderstood what U iques supposed to b .. @haughty temple

❤️

[frank sonnet]

[tight wyvern]

I'm at the chaos trial is there any other ascension trials I can do?

[rigid lintel]

You can't get a second starting point, but there is a late game mechanic that lets you get one passive from the tree and put it on an amulet

[cedar blaze]

the one in act 2 and the chaos trial are the only ones

[fair arch]

ahh ok thanks

Ahh yep the "heavy ammunitions"... I was thinking either that or the "Armor Break and Physical Damage" nodes which is only 2 steps away instead of 4

[tight wyvern]

Is there a way to ascend through the act 2 one a second time

[rigid lintel]

Exactly 😄 if you just work towards a big passive like that you can try to get the best bang for you buck for each point

[cedar blaze]

in mid-game you can (cruel) do it again

[tight wyvern]

Damn ok cuz this chaos trial is harsh af

[rigid lintel]

It only gets worse 😄

[chilly condor]

anyone have tips for beating trial of chaos Chimera? been trying for 4-5 hours now

[fair arch]

Might do both but first the armor break since i got unlucky with not getting a high damage crossbow need the extra damage to clear act 2

[cedar blaze]

you get another skill that you can assign

[torn sierra]

what the splle that let me shoot lighting waves out of my staff?

[small pivot]

I don’t think it the same boss every times

[burnt needle]

you get a max number of core skills you can socket. unset give u +1

[rich minnow]

Should I be using regals semi-regularly if a item has good magic rolls? Or is it better to just hoard them for higher base levels

[warped idol]

destroy or is good?

[burnt needle]

the exchange rate is 1 ex to 7 regals right now. so you can prob use them if it would help you in the campaign

you will come across jewelers orbs that do that

[rich minnow]

exchange rate?

[ebon turret]

trials just seem so luck based

[cedar blaze]

can sell it or destroy it for a chance shard

[rich minnow]

I'm not too bothered about trading

[burnt needle]

yes via the in-game exchange that unlocks in act 4

[burnt needle]

then just use as you see fit. they drop pretty regularly from rare monsters

[warped idol]

for 1000 gold?

[rich minnow]

Alright nice

Thanks

[cedar blaze]

trade it

[tight wyvern]

Can anyone help me through the chaos trial I can't clear the boss in zone 4 and I'm not sure what else to do

[warped idol]

sorry mh how i can open trade?

[cedar blaze]

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Standard

[cyan gorge]

Is there a setting to turn on so that when I’m clicking an enemy to shoot them and there’s loot on the ground, my character doesn’t move to pickup the item instead of attack the enemy?

[warped idol]

tyy

[frank sonnet]

there are 3 bosses and some are easier than others... it took me 12 attempts because I had 1 chimera, 11 of the goddamn tornado chicken boss, and 1 of the vulture

hopefully they tune the bosses down because 10 minutes for an attempt is annoying as hell

I liked that the sekhema boss was easy

you can always come back when you're overlevelled too, I did it 10 levels over

[tight wyvern]

Atp Im probably going to set the game aside for awhile cuz this shit is just a waste of time. Tornado chicken is ridiculous

[cedar blaze]

you can always do it later if its too hard for you

[frank sonnet]

yeah the tornado chicken is an absolute asshole, I got him 9 fucking times in a row! did eventually beat him though

[arctic condor]

why does this lower my int compared to the 2nd one?

[haughty temple]

another item that needs the 12 str?

[turbid kiln]

Guys the gambling merchant on act 2 is glitched i cant buy anything from her anyone know how to fix this????

[rigid lintel]

I honestly just went back at LVL 50 to stomp them

[frank sonnet]

might fix itself when you level up

[turbid kiln]

hope so

[rigid lintel]

At the bottom right is an allowance of how many gambles you can do, do you still have some left?

[haughty temple]

wtf really? why?

[rigid lintel]

When you kill rares/uniques it builds up

[burnt needle]

i noticed yu get a certain number of rolls as you kill unique and rares i think

[turbid kiln]

the 0/100 thing?

[burnt needle]

ya

[rigid lintel]

Yeah, if you have 0 you can't buy any, you have to kill rares/uniques to build it up

[turbid kiln]

how tf am i supposed to feed my gambling addiction?

[haughty temple]

wtf why would they limit it?

[burnt needle]

farm a rare at a checkpoint

[rigid lintel]

Find a rare and spawn camp it or just play

[narrow charm]

guys is trading offline?

[amber rune]

trading site down again 😭

[burnt needle]

pause > spawn at last checkpt

[frank sonnet]

seems to be having problems yeah

[rigid lintel]

So that someone with 10 million gold doesn't roll infinite bases

[turbid kiln]

Its a good idea now i think about it

[narrow charm]

does this discord have a selling channel?

im selling good items

[frank sonnet]

no #trading

[haughty temple]

they still need to farm that gold, and ya will get alot more bases from that farming then gamblingh

[robust gulch]

how do you access the market? 🤔

[rigid lintel]

Which market?

[narrow charm]

im lvl 52 and im too weak im stuck on act 1 cruel

[safe lance]

oof does candlemass give 8% max life in norma acts too, I think I missed this boss, just randomly found it now.

[narrow charm]

do i need to reroll or better buy items?

[frank sonnet]

npcs in town let you access the currency exchange, but there is no general item market

[robust gulch]

like how do you see what other people is selling?

[native hill]

Anyone to do ascendancy trial act 3 vs a exalted. The boss tornado one shot me otherwise it seem fine

[robust gulch]

then what is the premium tab is for?

[rigid lintel]

Pathofexile.com/trade2 is the trading website

[frank sonnet]

reroll your entire character? no, go back to a zone you can do and farm gear, maybe get some cheap 1ex gear off trade if the site is up

[icy nymph]

btw is the website down rn or is it just me

[rigid lintel]

When you put something in the premium tab for sale it's indexed on the website

[frank sonnet]

yeah the tornado chicken sucks but there are 2 other bosses you can get

[robust gulch]

502 bad gateway

[rigid lintel]

It might be down right now

[frank sonnet]

yes it's fucked atm but that's where it is normally

[narrow charm]

im lvl 52 but i need to hit 5x on normal enemies till killed. is my weapon weak?

[frank sonnet]

5 sounds normal to me

[native hill]

Whaaaat it's random?? I did it to the boss 8 time now always the bird lmao

[rustic wraith]

I did not get a uncut skill gem on my merc in act 1

[rigid lintel]

Website has been down most of the day

[narrow charm]

but i die so fast

[rustic wraith]

Do you always get it?

[frank sonnet]

me too, I had 1 chimera, 1 vulture, and 11 tornado bird, 9 of those tornados were in a row!!! I did eventually kill him though

[cedar blaze]

whats your ec and resistances?

[native hill]

If you have time for a help I would be forever in your debt

[narrow charm]

im on act 1 cruel

[native hill]

I do act 1 cruel easy just that bird it's messing with me

[cedar blaze]

100 es is crazy work lol

[rustic wraith]

Do you always get an uncut skill gem in act1?

[narrow charm]

what ec u mean

[proud raft]

can anyone tell me what those are for? I cant seen to find the sue of them

[native hill]

Sell to tje guy top of act 3 town

[cedar blaze]

look at the description of the relics

[chilly condor]

please tune down trial of chaos boss

[native hill]

And the heart you have to sacrifice it to a autel

[rigid lintel]

Kalimaa

[narrow charm]

how to know my weapon dps

[safe lance]

I though they already did tune down chaos, I tried normal chaos trial like 10 games gave up and the next day the mobs didnt feel so rough, boss was hard to gauge as there were different bosses.

[rigid lintel]

In the skill tab it shows the dps of all the skills

[narrow charm]

not the skills

the weapon itself

because i wanna buy on trading

[whole palm]

Is the checkpoint update out yet?

[rustic wraith]

Mercs don’t get spirit gems?

[rigid lintel]

I don't think there is weapon dps anywhere

[ancient crater]

idk where to put support questions, but what setting is making it so when enemies spawn the game takes a while to load them up inside? I am running vulkan with everything on low

[rigid lintel]

Poe1 had it in trading apps

[whole palm]

Not all skills unfortunately

[dusky steppe]

do u guys use keybored to move or mouse

[rigid lintel]

I don't know how much to really trust those dps either

I switched to keyboard

[cedar blaze]

poe2 has them in the trading website as well

[dusky steppe]

u reckon its better?

[rigid lintel]

Wasd feels pretty great

Especially with having to roll around

[dusky steppe]

fair

[lone needle]

what the best general affixes for flasks

[safe lance]

I prefer seething or whatever it is called now - some recovery is instant

[craggy gyro]

Is there a way to check the tiers of the affixes?

[safe lance]

yes, the detailed view, it is on the right side but the text is verrrrry light so its hard to see

[craggy gyro]

ty

[vernal arch]

I need a firewall spell for my witch. Minions not doing enough damage

[tardy mauve]

nice

[rigid lintel]

I like gain flask charges over time or on kills

[torn relic]

what is the solution for this game freezing my PC and potentially permanently damaging my rig? I think its a little fkin rediculous that this issue exists tbh

[tardy mauve]

kinda weird it is level 5 when I am 60 doing cruel act 3

[haughty temple]

damm what ya want for that?

[keen plover]

Can anyone help on dais of reckoning?

[leaden tapir]

guys, can you insert 2 of the same rune in a weapon for example, does the rune effects stack?

[native inlet]

Yea

[tardy mauve]

it is mine
I need levels

[rigid lintel]

Stack additively

[craggy gyro]

Isn't it a Windows 11 update problem?

[haughty temple]

darm, ok i wanted the mana and life regen

[torn relic]

why does not a single other video game I own do this?

[ember elk]

has someone experienced game freezes in the beginning and cast me into the main menu?

[minor urchin]

so how do you unlock more charms slots in belts?

[haughty temple]

cause win 11 sucks

[tardy mauve]

I am doing totem build, it is only mostly caring about level of gems

[ripe nexus]

what should i know or do before going into my first ascendancy

[leaden tapir]

oh alright, do u think 2 runes that increase physical dmg vs 1 phys and 1 that increase lightning dmg (my main element) is better?

[torn relic]

does it? every other game I have works fine

[native inlet]

Mine doesnt freeze just crashes maybe lower the graphics settings

[rigid lintel]

You can get 2 charm after campaign, I've never seen a 3

[minor urchin]

you can't change after picking it

[haughty temple]

security and other things plus the ai make it bad

[native inlet]

I put resistances in mine since there harder to cap

[minor urchin]

puff. what a waste. I just saw Empyrean with an unique belt from the pinnacle boss, the most difficult content right now and it only had 1 slot xd

[torn relic]

so the security and AI is why POE2 is hard freezing my entire PC and needs hardware reboot? its not just me there is an entire forum of people complaining about this issue as well

[midnight siren]

does runes socketed into armor count as base stats?

[native inlet]

Like my chest is really good but zero res so i had to make it up

[rigid lintel]

It does seem way too hard to get charms slots right now

[native inlet]

Na

[native inlet]

You just need to get futher into the game

I got my second on a piece of gear on act3 i believe

Farmfarm

[slate urchin]

need help The mad wolf of ogham

[native inlet]

Plus you only really need immune to stun or poison for story

[elder jolt]

why tf are all my warrior attacks just missing

[devout root]

is the shrine to use this on the same map you find it?

[elder jolt]

i have +17 accuracy on my weapon

[rigid lintel]

Yeah

[devout root]

what does it look like

been everywhere

[native inlet]

A shrine

[rigid lintel]

An altar with a knife

[slate urchin]

anyone can help me with The mad wolf of ogham

[rigid lintel]

Big green quest words

[tall lynx]

no its the next map

[native inlet]

You can make a post in game for ppl to join you

[proud raft]

i can't seen to find it

[slate urchin]

how im new

[native inlet]

Whats your name ill come help

[wheat quarry]

[slate urchin]

CantToucheMe

[wheat quarry]

yes give name

[slate urchin]

with the e

[rigid lintel]

It was in either the far right or left for me

[native inlet]

Ill dm u

[still turtle]

Ngl I haven't noticed a difference in the game supposedly being less confusing for new players 😂 atleast in Poe1 I could get past act fkn 1

[rigid lintel]

It looks really simple but that's probably ten years of Poe melting a hole in my brain x.x

[vapid violet]

no you shouldn't lose it, the chaos resist is the implicit(built in stat) of that type of ring (amethyst ring)

[native inlet]

Sent a dm on discord

[still turtle]

I'm on my 3rd character and I keep getting stuck around the same point just getting eaten by mobs idk what I'm doing wrong

[safe lance]

it is simple but requires me to use 10 buttons early on, its very hard with so many mappings on controller

[wheat quarry]

thank you! i didnt understand how vaal orb works yet, thanks : )

[still turtle]

My mercenary was ok but I wanted to restart after the update

[craggy gyro]

how do i detonate corpse as witch? is it a skill

[wheat quarry]

yes

[rigid lintel]

Do lots of damage, roll out of attacks

[still turtle]

Lots of damage is the hard part

[nocturne oyster]

I did my first trial and chose my ascendancy class. Additional trial token things have dropped. Do I have to find another trial site to get more ascendancy skill points? Or can I go back to the one I just did?

[grave tusk]

whats the rune called to add pd dmg to my bow?
and why is that betetr than the lightning one?

[wheat quarry]

yes, you need to do the other trials, cant repeat same one for points

[nocturne oyster]

Got it thanks.

[wheat quarry]

you can go the currency exchange to see all orbs

[nocturne oyster]

Can I use any token at any trial?

[wheat quarry]

no, each token is for specific trial

[nocturne oyster]

Appreciate the help

[frozen thunder]

has the look of the item somethink to do with the rolled mods or only the vendor's s

[grave tusk]

pls tell me, its not in there

[wheat quarry]

then please explain to me what you meant with "pd dmg" i didnt understand

[midnight siren]

does runes in armor count as base stats, as they increase the armor stat?

[grave tusk]

physical dmg

[slate urchin]

how can i check if a piece of armour is better then the one im wearing

[wheat quarry]

ah

[craggy gyro]

is contagion good for necro ?

[ripe nexus]

what do i choose

[rigid lintel]

I'd avoid the one that randomly selects rooms or hides what they are

[grave tusk]

oh, i have one of those. can you tell mwe if i should add iron or storm runes to my bow for Lightning arrow?

[velvet edge]

Guys why cant i equip Cast on shock?

[frozen thunder]

btw it can go on any martial weapon

[wheat quarry]

you want the ones with the least debuffs, cant tell without hovering on all of them

[velvet edge]

Says it needs 60 reserved spirit

I have 60 base

and 100 from my body

Do I need to do cruel first?

[wheat quarry]

i honestly dont know how rangers work, or how your skill works. im a fire/ice sorc. sorry

[merry pollen]

morning, poison... how do we deal with posion, dying a lot to poison

[velvet edge]

and have 100 base???

[wheat quarry]

bottom is obviously the best of the worst

[bitter bolt]

anybody know why my movespeed modifier is 14% when my boots are 20%?

[honest brook]

Are item notes broken for anyone else? And is it just visually? Controller on pc, it shows "last price used" but no item note

[frozen thunder]

go Double iron rune

[whole palm]

Can someone explain why my dps would drop if I get this passive it doesn’t make any sense

[craggy gyro]

monk is great

[wheat quarry]

you have a reduction from a different source, could be a passive tree node

[ripe nexus]

?

[wheat quarry]

pick the bottom one

[frozen thunder]

probably a visual bug

[craggy gyro]

What i've been reading from other players who are in endgame say to just use the tree to bump your damage a bunch, is that the case?

[rigid lintel]

The room type is if it's a gauntlet or other ones, so that's not terrible to not know

[whole palm]

Ok thx

[craggy gyro]

[whole palm]

Cooldown recovery rate shouldn’t have any effect on those skills though right there is no cooldown only reload time

[karmic isle]

monk feeling so weak early game (act 2 rn). any advice?

[velvet edge]

Anyone know if cast on shock is bugged?

I have 60 base but cant equip it

[torn relic]

hey guys, this is my PC.

What graphics settings should I run for best FPS / performance. dont really care about quality

[craggy gyro]

@karmic isle follow a build
