It goes for 1 exalted mostly now, not getting used much as it's in poe1
I just did my ascendancy quest but closed the game before choosing. Now I'm spawned outside the trial and it says to use the altar but not sure how? Do I need to do the whole thing again? :(
It should, yes
anyone knows if path of building is avail for poe2??
sold to the merchant
Check the altar used to open the trial, if nothing is there - then you need a random drop key and do it all over again
Im sorry u have to redo it
How? I'm at the start
Oof
can anyone help with queen of filth i have been fine by myself all game except for this boss. (my first time playing poe2)
Why did you leave w/o taking the ascendancy you came for xD
Went to look to see what I'd prefer it's not a simple decision considering you can't reroll
what's your ign
Lxzyy
Went afk and closed the game, came back and spawned at start haha
well, that is unfortunate, but yeah you have to rerun it (I think)
Do the "troubled camp" in act3 ever get greyed out on the map or are there just permanent extra shops?
@lusty hinge what happen?
Got disconnected
ah
Got loads of extra skill gems dm me
Is it worth going there? 6 nodes away..
is there a way to transfer gear between your characters? i assumed it worked like diablo 2 where the stash is shared between them but that doesn't seem to be the case
yes stash is shared
it's possible i selected the wrong option when creating my second character
ty hero @lusty hinge
unless they're in different leagues (e.g. hardcore and standard)
Ooooh, haven't seen this one yet
the funny thing is that i initially tried making the character in hardcore but then i died and she was still there
not sure what that was about
When character die in hardcore they get moved to standard league
if both characters are in the same league (standart) then it is shared
i didn't last very long
np
my first hardcore character probably wasn't the best place to experiment with a melee witch build
that is... true.. and respectable
i just like the idea of being a deathknight fighting alongside a bunch of undead
I mean, might as well start in hardcore. If you die you just get moved to standard and you can continue experimenting. But if you get lucky you can stay in HC. Win-win
though it didn't really have the right effect when i was only wielding a club
so are the stashes not shared after my hardcore character got moved to standard?
or does it just take a bit to update?
you get a standard stash
anyone have a chestpiece that gives spirit? I'll give 3 blacksmith whetstones. Level 35
your HC stash stays in HC
I never played hardcore but if it's like a new league then your stuff in your HC stash gets move to standard stacsh into "remove-only' tabs
oh damn that sucks
what do I even do with quality pots? since I cant dismantle them
well yes, but we do not have any leagues yet
I already have 4 ascendency points(from first ultimatum and first sekhema). Is this telling the truth? Only 2 floors for the 6 pt?
no it very much lies to you
you need lvl 60+ with 3 trials
Doh. Ty! 🙂
I really need help with something. On console, how do I make the map cover the entire screen like I can in PoE1? I’m not seeing it in settings 🥺
I mean technically it doesn't lie since it says ascendancy class and not points
Ohh
zoom it in the options (though I don't do consoles so dk if that's a thing in there at all)
Hey can I have this
guys when do we get our 5th and 6th point in ascendance points?
Anyone got a level 60 sekemha coin for trade
sure
Sell em for gold
Level 60 sekemha
i just got to utzaal, is there anything special about these enemies? i was crushing everything and after getting here they fuck me up
We don't do trading here. You can check out #trading for alternatives
Moth_is_High ign
im already lvl 61. i dont see any quests popping up
Unless we do trade here I guess. What are rules I suppose
It’s a coin drop
this good?
Watch out for the poison gas clouds
Other than that, they’re quite aggressive
It's not an uncommon sentiment if it's any consolation
what does it look like?
not online, I assume no cross with pc/xbox or you're in hardcore or ssf
i wonder what the 'advanced' gear is gonna turn into when the last three acts come out
it was like after i went through that portal my dude got nerfed about 80% lol
Compared to what?
for it's level
There’s full crossplay on a dif toon my bad I dmed you
Same as the one you got for the first 2 points it’s just a level 60 coin
it'd be a little disappointing if you finally got into act 4 and had to wear an advanced shabby hood or whatever
Yeah I experienced a stark contrast too lol
I mean, you can hold alt to see the mod tiers. But without an item to compare against, I'm not sure how to say if it's good or not. It's a hell of a lot better than my helmet at level 60ish but that's not saying much
Cause the ones in further ahead deal physical with the blood spells
barya coin?
And the ones in utzaal deal slight damage over time
Yeah
whats up with this indie company and dcing me and making my map useless
ohhh
thank youu!
are they making respec cheaper
is their a seperate store for PoE1 and PoE2?
Can someone take a picture of the button info at bottom of screen when refunding passives for ps5? Mine is cut off by my tv i think so i dont know what it is saying
they are?
idk
Likely yes. #old-game-news @clever geode
nice i need to respec my whole tree
Apparently in next patch 40% less curve from memory
"We’ll also be making Passive Point respeccing cheaper especially at higher levels. It had a relatively aggressive curve getting more expensive with character level, we have flattened that curve so it doesn’t exponentially grow as much. This should generally result in approximately 40-50% less gold cost for respeccing between the start and middle of endgame progression."
nice nice
What counts as a small passive skill?
Are there 2 seperate stores for PoE1 and PoE2?
Not a notable, attribute node, or keystone
just weird its that big of a difference, the area before i could tank everything and 1-2 shot enemies, now i need to hit em like 8 times and if im hit 3 times im dead.
what's an example of physical spell
👍
bonestorm, unearth
has physical tag and dmg
what class do you guys recommend i should play?
anything but summoner, it got 3 nerfs back to back
So like a war cry counts as a small passive ?
anything u like
the one you enjoy visually and that compliments the playstyle to your liking
where do you get gem links from, is it only the lesser orbs? i'm mostly on 2L in a3 cruel still n dps is kinda petering off
What does ES and CI mean?
energy shield & chaos inoculation (sets your hp to 1, immune to chaos)
Sorry but whats chaos inoculation?
whats the exchange rate of divine to chaos
Ah, ok tysm
is there a price check channel
how do i setup a sell in the trade website
premium stash tab
u can only do that if u got the premium stash
so what you are saying is that this is worth 62-64 ex?
My buddy has both relics inserted in teh shrine for the ancient vows quest but he cannot choose a buff... nothing happens when he hovers over it... any workarounds?
cause that item was selling for 3 divine orbs
a bit more, but yes
80 smth ex
Struggling with chronomancer damage, I just hit Act 3 with Flamethrower build. I keep getting interrupted by mobs, any suggestions?
Click the relics themselves, not the text.
guys this is an emergency, is there anything i can do to not have to redo this whole trial? i killed the final boss after i died.
Nope
yeah no, gotta do it all over again
is there a version of path of building for poe2 or not yet?
Not yet
not that I'm aware of
The pob guy is working on one
i gotchu
is poe1 better than poe2?
what happens if i use an orb of chance on an advanced or expert item, does it downgrade the unique to the normal item?
so how do i sell this Amulet just post in chat?
yeah he validated his files and now it works.. we've done the quest multiple times the same way i guess it just didnt work this time lol ty
Depends on what type of game you like
do you have a premium stash tab?
do people sell the version of the entry item that already has the modifiers etc so i dont have to do the trials twice?
They're different games and POE2 is only a week into a 6-12 month early access period.
no but i used a code didnt get any currencies
If you die, fail, or lose all your honor, you have to redo the trial
no, I don't think it works like in poe1 with the tomes, you get a fresh, unmodifyable coin

Used a code?
Bruh this whole time there’s been a portal button?
Yeah
I’ve been running back to waypoints this whole time
so you bought the access but didn't get the coins with it? or did somebody give you a code?
to get the early access
someone gave me the code
code is just access, it doesn't come with coins
i got over 50 dms after getting this
Yeah then you wouldn't have any premium tabs.
then post it on the forums, in the poe2 trading thread or use trade chat in-game
are you supposed to just sell these to oswald?
yes
any ideas why when i load into a endgame T1 map it puts me back into login screen /?
price for this ? im so clueless
How do u get 30 more of spirit ?
that's very good
check on trade website
scale down
i got insta 15ex offer but its 3am idk
how did u get an offer this quickly ?
did you put it in the trading site ?
u can prob go for 50+
yes
Btw we don’t allow price checks on this server
ah
rly ? sry
I give up, no relics are dropping in Keth, how do I progress with these quests? Am I missing something? I don't have relics for the Valley of Titans
any ideas why when i load into a endgame T1 map it puts me back into login screen /?
kill da sneks
I've murdered them all
dont cost u anything
one is listed for 20 ex (yeah we don't do price checks)
it's his
ye ofc its mine
what happens if I rerun a failed atlas map?
i put for 55 atm, will be online all day tomorrow, thanks
rare ones with same stuff go for much less, idk
I'd advise you to learn how to use trading website to price check the items
well it can be use to craft better one i guess
Is there a cap on Stun buildup?
what item do you need for the 4 set of ascendancy points? just found an inscribe ultimatum with 7 trials
d'you kill all the mobs in there? you sure you're not missing the other one? keth drops sun relic (kabala)
well yeah, solid crafting base, I didn't say those rares were any good xD
lvl 80+ ultimatum with 10 trials and 3 keys, not 1
well, or this nightmare
I have neither
ah, so level 80 before you can get the item for the last set, got it
interesting, never had this happen (for it to not drop)
What level has everyone cleared the Trial of Chaos? I feel like I have a good build and haven't struggled with anything up to this point. I'm level 40 but I can't even make it to the boss. The "recommended" level is 38 but there's no way they're level 38 enemies lol
There was a green one in my pockets before but I dropped it since I figured I could go back and get it again next session
you can reset the zone and try again, but I'm not sure if you need a full reset or just reset the mobs with respawn at checkpoint
I'm on my second clean slate of Keth
oh.. well, that I'm not sure, never dropped any quest items xD
Need some help please. I unlocked Cast on Freeze and it says. "Reservation: 60 Spirit", but when i go to equip it, it says "Disabled: Not enough Spirit". I have 67 Spirit, so why can't i equip it?
put a skill into it
For perspective, I'm lv53 and I've yet to touch second trial. Probably will do it once I start playing today
Can anyone explain to me what Quality does on a staff? Did something else change that is not reflected here since clearly nothing worked here.
check the quality of the weapon skill
What are the total number of ascendancy points you can get ?
Playing as a chaos blood mage i found myself at a boss which i literally can't beat. My DPS is significantly lower than the HP i lose from casting spells......................... wtf do i do?
8 total
Ok thank you
get better gears?
Cannot compare before and after and the skill itself does not say anything. So that is all it does? Improve the quality of the skill it provides?
I put one exalt in , it’s a dps increase over my current staff for ice monk , but is it worth putting another exalt orb in ?
..
#anyone at Jamanra quest or just willing to help?
prob not
Good luck! Let me know how it goes. I can make it to the 3rd room pretty easily then get wrecked due to all the enemy density. The modifiers don't help any either. I may finish up act 3 then come back to it. Its rough lol
im on it
What does weapon master ascendancy do exactly ? I'm confused I've read it twice but the wording is hard to understand
Good staff but you’ll replace it soon
I need help with Viper Napuatzi
no, doesn't seem like it affects the skill
whats your ig?
Hey I just bought the game. Any tips?
Okay cheers it’s what I was thinking anyway
Play the game
read build guide
before starting
if u are totally new to poe
Like I’m new to the genre in general
You can play blind lol
that's like the opposite of a tip
Slot in staff, check numbers in gems menu
If you're starting maybe play a ranged build ? Just for a easier start ?
I’m not ass at game but figured I’d ass
Not sure how melee feels in poe 2
ok then dont go in blind
can I play the game on a different system than I bought it in? xbox-ps5 type
Yh no it’s deffo better
Melee feels fine, it’s hard but rewarding if you master it
I made a switch yesterday which gave me nearly 4x damage, now I feel sorry for the monsters
Yeah I meant in early game before you have a lot of skills and stuff
servi reward, whats better chaos resistance or reduce slow debuff?
Chaos
ok
But also does anyone know what exactly the weapons mastery ascendancy of merc does ? I'm confused
Chaos res is hard to get
nah it doesn't raise the quality, I guess just the good ol' crafting bonus
Yes but update is probably 2 hours later lol. Last I did was entering act2 cruel as warbringer
good call
no mana option?
Just finished A3 but didn't do trials of chaos at all, only did the first trial of sekhma - is it worth doing these or just going straight into cruel and doing it then?
Item rarity in order - White is common, blue is magic, yellow is rare and orange is unique.
But just play bruh
Go nuts
3rd was 5+ to all attributes
Okay but then - what does it do? Nothing at all? Just consumes the item? I see no difference at all.
How is that useful information
Lmaoo
Appreciate you guys
I’m not no kid so I now games lol but I’d figured it wouldn’t be bad to just ask
pretty much, I guess xD
Becuase he is new to the game you dingus, he will want to pick up blues and yellows
If u want to play if very safe, assuming u have a decent build. Lv55 u can do second trial. I'm at 53 and will be doing second trial once I'm playing later
Whites are good to pick up too
Is there things I shouldn’t pick up?
Only reason why I drag out so long is my build seem good enough till now in cruel, that I don't rly need a buff for ascendency
Bases for crafting and slamming on
in trials of shek, is +50% monster health also +50% boss health?
Pick up whatever you like, just stop asking questions and go in blind, once you have issues start asking
Ok bro
You gotta take that ascendency node off
As crude as he sounds, he is right lol
Play the game, enjoy the game
If ur new, pick everything
Slowly u'll decide what is junk since invent is ez to max
Like i could give you a rundown, give you the best class and skills to play with but that’d just ruin your experience
Very true
Same for build guides
Go in blind, and act 1 normal, personally is the hardest act normal n cruel difficulty combined
What are you talking about? Im confused
I’m sure I’ll pick it up pretty quick
Yes you will
Best tip is don't give up and don't go trigger skills
shek lmao
but I think there's a +% to boss health specifically
anyone on jamanra
is anytone else just dcing from maps when you try to enter over and over
Remember, if you have issues, go ask or you can always respec
anyone got a spare level 5 skillgem? i could trade something for it
quality has a tiny affect on the crafting outcome (at least it did in poe1)
is there a reason my chest piece is giving me negative move speed?
Is it armour base?
I mean, I went self cast skills with big damage, and double triggers, with big damage... And I'm flying through maps, so depends on how you can build ig
guys whats better, salvage a slotted rare or disenchant it?
evasion rating only
If you need artificers, salvage.
what you need more, regal or artificers
oh ayt ayt thanks guys
Ah, I see... But I got confused since I didn't mention anything in this topic XD
Was telling the guy to slot in new quarterstaff and check DPS to get a rough estimate on which one is better
havent been using regal for some time so artificers it is
Yeah he was asking what's the point if it doesn't change anything
Ouh, I joined the convo midway so missed... I see, I see
someone to go do history in insane im on act 1
can I play the game on a different system than I bought it in? xbox-ps5 type
Any can give me a Uncut skill gem lvl 4 please??
How do you deal with constricted spitter groups in Act III as a melee character? They attack so fast I sometimes die before I even have time to complete a single swing of any of my attacks. They're constantly barraging you with poison projectiles, there's no window to strike at them without trading health.
Yes, but you need keys for specific systems
What does upgrading rage spirits do
So to say, you'll need to buy keys for those systems too
Wait if you crash in ultimatum you lose your token... Wtf
Use the environment for cover and kite them
better than dying after loot at least
Do you have to complete every single trial in a row without dying once?
Sadge
How is that even possible
Antidote charm
It's actually very doable... But if you're struggling now, wait for the next balance patch
Should be sometime this week
what a good game
Yes. But is it painful? Also yes
I am using it, they just blast me out of the air with raw DPS 
Is anyone willing to help with the Jamanra, the abomination fight in act 2? I was messing around with builds and now my build can’t get passed phase one and I’m a brokie lol.
Does accuracy mean anything for melee players?
You can see they're the minions of a Rare enemy with the yellow "minion" text, which I would guess have the "revive minion" trait
Does the area level stay the same or does it scale with you?
Oof, well.. Try to avoid getting hit with dodges or smth, maybe getting your chaos resist a little higher
Sure I'll dm you
Your hits may not register on evasive mobs
If accuracy is low
Depends on the token level, not your level
Corrupting them with vaal orbs
i see
Also, it's a chance... Not guranteed
token level?
Is there a way to respec?
The thing you slot into the altar/pillar to start trial
Djinn Barawakawaka in case of Sekhema
Dunno the name of Chaos one
They have a level on them
That's monster level
Upur level doesn't matter
How do you check your hit chance as a warrior
Would an iron rune or cold rune be better for this ? Or even mana leech or something ?
Wait, so do I only have to complete the trial of strength for the first one? Im level 22
Sanctum relic mods are additive, correct?
skills tab G - find a skill - press arrow on the right to open detailed info tab, then find the damage category, should be smth like this in there
yes, but limited slots
Does the sacrificial heart drop in cruel act 3 too? Or just normal?
Best runes to slot in for this ?
Kk just making sure Ty
yep, 2 more points
So what exactly was the nerf on skeleton arcanists? do they cost more?
probably iron
when the patch hits, arsonists will cost the same (or very close) to other skelly mages (storm and frost)
and there goes my build
Patch need to hurry

w
patience exile
why do you want arsonist nerfed?
Would increased chaos damage from passive skills increase the damage of skeleton archer's gas cloud skill?
I want Vine arrow Gemling nerfed
Do the leech runes actually reduce your dmg or just convert a portion?
Has someone had issues with Giant's Blood and Shield Charge? I can't equip a 2 handed mace and a shield becauise the game says I have to remove the Shield Charge gem. Then I can remove it, equip the 2h mace and shield, and then put the shield charge back without an issue
it's super annoying
To hp or whatever
leech works off a % of your dmg, it doesn't reduce anything really
is there any specific good spell for leveling ? or spells that synergize specially well, essence drain is very low damage
hello, which jewel gives +25% increased small radius?
giant's blood tripples your stat requirements, so when you're barely covering it with the gear, once you unequip that gear - you need to get the stats back somehow to equip it
can you leech with crossbows? I have 5% but it seems like nothing
What does this mean? I hurt myself to regen mana?
it will use 15% of your mana to regen life
if leech isn't instant, it just works like passive regen pretty much, which feels like ass. there are nodes on the passive tree to make leech instant
or the contrary, whichever
I opted in for regen on cull supports instead of leech
That's what I'm trying to clarify lmao
you lose 15% hp to recover your mana
bro why am i constantly DCing every single map portal what is this game
give it a try, worse that can happen is you die 😄
if I do the trial to ascend with a friend, can we both ascend if we do it together?
reduces your hp (15% of mana recovered) when used
no it will do it for the host only
Oh I realized leech is from phys damage, I'm converting phys to element is there elemental leech?
yes
oh shit, than i am corrected 😄
ranger feels weak in aoe and strong in single target what am i doing wrong
haha mixed opinions
not that I'm aware of, my damage converts too xD
so regen from culling strike (from witch hunter) did it for me
Nah the problem is not the attributes, I have it even without the weapons.
yeah people capitalize on that fact, making stacks
recommended 400 strength for giants blood
how do i look at the other tabs on the skill info screen
Did you figure it out? I don't have Unwavering Stance or seemingly anything else that would drop it to 0...
like for high ammunition rounds i want to see info on ammunition
how do i survive geonors mist phase ive died like 20 times 😭
is cone width affected by any stat?
for me i obtained a better spirit skill then i was able to beat him
The AOE stat. There's a gem to increase it.
is this good for lightning archer?
you just click on the tab, if the skill has them
how
You need to hold Alt
testing aoe with fragmentation rounds doesnt seem to increase the width
That way the window stays up and you an click the other tab
thx sm
uhm, no, just mouse over and click lol
for me i had to click alt idk
but thx
Perhaps cause we have WASD instead of point to click mode on.
oh, there's an arrow to the right to pop the info panel open
ooo alr
thx
these
How do you get your 5 and 6 ascendancy points? I've passed the trial of will
is this good for Lightning Ranger?
Yes
lvl 60+ 3 trial sekhema, lvl 75+ 10 trial chaos
yes, 3
Yeah, it's easy enough to avoid getting hit... But not if I want to attack, too 😂 Those things fire their projectiles 24/7 in bursts of two, there isn't enough time to complete an attack animation between their attack intervals. Chaos resist is probably the only answer, I just haven't had any luck with talismans or rings to give me any chaos resist.
Thank you for your help
did the patch release?
chug potions xD
I did feel them a bit, but nothing impossible really. wasn't even that geared up
why does every boss summon minions to help in a fight? its become so tedious
(unless these are minions from some rare monster that buffs them)
for you to get charges for your potions/charms
that's their only purpose
If you're playing monk, by the time you get to act 3
They're pretty one shottable
Where can you farm the djinn baraya for trial?
it is a random loot drop
i find it tedious and boring and lazy. ive rolled two characters and keep hitting walls because of rng. i think im done with this beta
Tried the watchful twins on deshar
Any mobs, though for proper ones you need to take care of mob levels
Better target / farm rates?
*rares
But you need the trial to be level 60+ right?
mob density/rarity would certainly be ideal
Since deshar only level 56
For 3rd set, yes
yes, you need to be higher or at least around that
Is the new patch coming this week?
Much appreciated
Yep
nice did anyone give an eta of like how many days?
Nah
Some might be by end of this week
Some might be early next week
But all before Christmas
nice thanks!
190 spirit without sceptres feels pog
anyone have any tips for doryani im lvl 46 and get to about 50% and then get one shot by 3 dif mechanics, this is my 12th try

Class?
mercenary
Hug his backside
need high elemental resists, preferably get flasks with +0.xx charges per second
Triangle AoE stay beyone vertices, AoE spread outwards from edges
Lightning dodge roll once to go 180 degrees through it tanking one hit
Rest is easy shit afaik
For ranged classes
How's your DPS?
Im using Blasphemy skill.
When I equip more than 1 curse, I only see 1 of the debuffs on the enemy.
What is happening?
Curse limit is 1
I think some annoints/notable/uniques allow you to add more curses
But base limit is 1
okay ill give it a try dps is good i get to robot? like 2 min in
Any ability to make ur character move faster? Dash or smth similar?
As a ranged class, hug the backside of bosses
Especially big ones
But dodge AoEs
Blink maybe
Else it's gear and tree
My guess for blood mage. For it to be viable it needs health orbs. Hopefully the chaos buff makes witch more viable
Blood mage crit on bosses spawn orbs
Except for some select bosses/rares never had to pop flasks
Good luck critical on bosses
Hey! I got locked out of sekhams trials in act 2, so I cant ascend. Does anyone have a coin that is willing to help me out please?
does anyone know where im supposed to go to "find knoweledge" in the temple of kopec act 3
Office soon 
I am running chaos dot. So I be never critical
RIP
I feel ya
Yeah, sustain you need the mini mobs, makes sense now
Keep going down
any answer on why people are dcing like every map? maps are completely unplayabl
Stairs spawn randomly in one of the vertices of the triangle map
I have dced 0 times, but yah... People complained about this
It's servers
its BAD bro out of 10 mas i DC maybe 8 of them
fixed

its just an indie game its ok the dev will fix it
you mean the dev
Nah devs, they've grown since PoE 1
u mean the 1 dev its an indie game
what does this mean im confused ?
Instead of max 24 weapon set pts, you have 44
You know how they work?
Weapon set skillpoints can be used to assign the nodes for different weapons (they switch with weapon swap)
not really , i just was lookijng at what asendancy i would like to pick im still in early act 1
i explored the whole triangle
hi what is the name of the rune that adds elemental damage?
I'm a dumbass and feel like I screwed up the passive tree already - is it hard to respec later?
ooh nvm i see it now
You go down twice, lowest floor is boss
Knowledge
Yes and no
I only JUST NOW realized they swapped the attribute allignment of lightning and cold from poe1 lol
But they're gonna patch gold req
To make it easier?
theyre about to patch respeccing to be cheaper
I guess in early access it would make sense to make it cheaper tbh
Oh nice nice
even then, gold isnt hard to come by.
I always thought respeccing shouldn't be too hard
To give players more freedom in experimenting with builds
it was already easier than POE1 by a long shot (especially ascendency points)
It was fine when I was 15 playing diablo 2 and had infinite time, but I'm assuming a lot of us are old bastards now 😄
I agree, spent 200k again yesterday to respec damage

I've started getting white hair yeah, well my first couple
gold drops jsut keep going up. I feel like an idiot for selling stuff bakc in act 1 instead of disenchanting

I never sold yellows
which spirit skill is good for mercenary?
what's the diff between expert and advanced and regular gear?
cause gold drops go up like 50x just from act 1 to end of act 3
Higher tier gear, higher item level, chance to roll higher mods
gotta say, I was a bit worried about the speed of endgame because of how much slower POE2 is than poe1, but watching people play maps makes me see that the combat still looks insane at endgame.
is there a full list somewhere?
Maps are big, but killing speed ain't an issue
Poe2db
wait, reduced cast speed = slower spell casting right?
also what does these sockets do now ? since skill gems arent like poe 1 anymore ?
Less time to cast
Runes
You put runes in there
i assume runes are just a buff to the weapon
Runes cannot be removed once socketed
or is it like a link system ?
It says what it does on the rune
less time to cast = you cast more often = more damage?
They're wrong. Reduced cast speed = higher cast time
wtf do I do if the snake won't drop the kabala relic
Aye, my bad... Text is confusing still

Can anyone help me an my friend we’re in my discord an we kinda don’t know what we’re doing hmu if ur willing to help
ok nice
i thought i was tripping when my spells felt more sluggish cause the unique gloves i got had 25% reduced cast speed
Anyone mind helping me do the trials of chaos? Dm me pls
Hold alt and hover over text to read about underlined keywords. It helped me immensely
Those gloves are trash imo. Unless you do spell damage without casting, like with a cast on X setup that's triggered by an attack
do i have to do renlys mud burrow quest in cruel a1 again or just skip it and continue with the main quest?
hold ctrl and teleport back to the area for a new area
so......what happen?
rip
it's still good cause i'm just spamming flame wall spark
You get a permanent buff from the first time you kill any side content that has a + icon on it. Even if it's a repeat in cruel difficulty
Mmmm... Maybe, but not likely
You got dishonourably discharged
that one doesnt give it right
Ran out of honor
Idk, check your map
Hi guys, in the Trial of Chaos, if my friend or I die can we rez eachother if one of us finishes the round?
Deleted the game. It's nothing but a tedious frustrating experience. Don't need a job after work

Nope
when using the trading site... how do I remove items with certain stats? 🤔 It seem doing a "NOT" filter still gives me those stats?
Well not every game has to be like candy crush and for everyone, good luck on your travels
I’m on PlayStation
give specifics
Assuming you have no cast speed, those gloves become a downgrade when you reach around 150% total increased damage (without the gloves)
im trying to find amulets without the stats on the right
im warrior
but they still show up - so i must be doing it wrong
Can anyone help me with chaos asap?
Just play it and have fun, I find if you obsess too much over it, it becomes a grind yeah like any game
I feel this game hates the Fire element. So many bosses got fire resists, it's ridiculous
I converted 100% fire to cold, lol
Fire just ain't hit hard enough
Imo, you're going about this process pretty backwards. I would recommend searching for stats you DO want and not caring about extra stats you, well, don't care about. As long as those stats aren't actively hurting your build
whhere does one submit game bugs they find? Or the best place to report them? Vitality is causing Lingering Illusion to stop working
anyone not receiving their twitch drop?
Bug report forums
^^^^^
i went to cosmetics but nothing there
Forums
hmm.... but it would be nice to filter out items with stats i DONT care about
- Ensure twitch account is linked
- Sometimes it takes time, but you'll eventually get it in game (MTX menu)
Which is a shame, maybe on full release. I'm considering switching to lightning skills
But if those items also have stats that are super good, but just so happen to have int, you're missing out on them
ok I received the first two no problem, that's why I'm wrondering what went wrong
thnx
took me like a day to get mine
If an amulet has 70 life and 40% fire res, it's not better than an amulet with 70 life, 40% fire res, and 5 dex
nah, I'm later game. I don't want any item that has INT on it because it's a waste of a stat slot/roll
how does does the infernal hound actually work... it doesn't say per second or anything like that
is it 100% chance to ignite?
when is the update guys?
You can search by number of open affixes as well
if you’re so intent on not wasting literally a single affix on a piece, search by affixes you do want
It's more about caring for which stats you want
Go into detailed skill info
(idk how to do that on console tho)
Regardless, seems bugged
It seems there is a NOT filter for this purpose specifically, I'm just not sure how to properly use it
Yeah, you can do a count of, say, 4 or 5, and include an exhaustive list of all the stuff you want. Then it'll guarantee you see items with four or five mods that you want
Is this just a 100% chance application?
Out of curiosity, you have any level 18+ gems equipped?
Go look at the stay requirements
It's not always wasted
Stat*
Yes, but base level is like 15
Rest are from level boost mods
yea, i could do it this way. I guess I'm less focused on specific ones but certain on ones i dont want
ty for answers everyone
Hound has ignite aura pretty much
could also try putting 1 in min for NOT
Haha yeah welp from memory it's like 195 int for a LVL 19 gem
I would try putting in a minimum value and see if that changes your results
Hard to hit without any int on gear
I have 250ish, but see... Boosting gems doesn't increase req
atp just say 100%
So my req is still lvl 15, but gems are like 19
So like... is this a good amount of damage?
You have 250 int ALL from your tree?
Base chance say 15%, this means 60% now (just an example)
REALLY deadly monsters
stat reqs are out of control 
I barely have int on my tree, all str
The DMG boost on certain skills make it worth it
Something's not adding up sir
Where do you get int if not from gear or passive tree lolol
Cast on shock isn't a support gem
Idk, I use hound for ignite and debuffs specifically
250 int no less
Okay, if infernal hound has an ignite aura, how does that work with stuff that on ignite?
spirit gem*
is there something like "gear tiers" in endgame poe2?
Some from tree, most from gear
Just use the trade market
I never said nothing from gear XD
I'm not sure what you mean. All affixes on gear have a tier they belong to
melee is bad or range is bader?
How does the skeletal arsonist nerf affect srs minion witch. Is the build still worth continuing if I'm only in act 1
They can both be good or bad depending on your build
how do i make a specific skill higher level than what my character allow
How does fire exposure work with infernal hound?
- skill gem mods on gear
I'm guessing it doesn't?
does an enemy that is cursed dying count as the curse expiring?
ohh how do i do that
Not by a lot, just a few less arsonists
Go into options and disable gem cutting restrictions in the game tab
Or maybe interface
Look for gear from vendors or trade with this mod
which mod is it that im looking for
Which build?
seems to be some really nice changes, just wish they would tell us which skills will be buffed rn instead of saying quarterstaff skills
@lusty hinge how much do you think DPS will get affected. Not sure if I should pivot to another build since I'm early on anyway
im trying to make bone storm much higher level
with gear tier I mean a concept that gear is divided into categories depending on its power, usually it would be that certain content drops gear from a certain category, one way to implement this would be something like waystones 1-4 drop gear tier 1, waystones 5-7 drop gear tier 2 and so on
You'll need +x levels to all spell skill gems
I'm not sure what you mean. The hound supported by fire exposure? Or how does fire exposure on an enemy affect the hound's damage?
Underperforming* quarterstaff skills
Do you have to go through all acts twice?
yeah ik
just wondering which ones they consider underperforming
I just noticed fire exposure only applies on hit with ignite
Infernal hound applies ignite aura, so incompatible
Pretty much those not in the builds that like 99% of the monks skip xD
I believe later on you get gear that cannot roll lower tier mods, but in general a level 70 piece of gear can roll mods from level 1-70. The ilvl just sets the ceiling.
I'd ask in #2┃after-acts-help, they might know more about the endgame item system
Please remove that image
ok
mb
is the third ascendancy quest bugged visually, i have cleared the traitors passage 2 times and killed the miniboss 3 times and its not going away, im guessing i have to find an asendency token somewhere else? Can still fast travel to the trail of suckhemas
Yes
Well, does the hound do basic attacks that hit? If so, those might be able to ignite
oh thats going to annoy me forever
That's true
Tokens are random drops, the cruel quest is bugged, it shouldn't have ever been repeated in cruel
Once you reach endgame, it'll not show up in your quest log
So I have a question…if I get a weapon with good stats and good modifiers and I wanna keep using it…how do I actually make it scale up? Coz I would eventually get weapons that outdamage the current one…and I dont want that happening
that's how it works
You don't. Especially in campaign.
use orb
You don't. Not much of a loot game if you stop picking up loot.
guys what are the pros and cons of corrupting an item?
Don't XD
It'll be worth more endgame
There's always an upgrade somewhere around the corner
i dont change my axe forever
Pros: it could get a neat implicit mod or an extra rune socket (which can make it go past the normal maximum)
Cons: could reroll most of the mods and make the item terrible
That's a mace
oh damn. that sounds awful for the latter
That's a cool looking axe you got there, sir
Yep. Don't vaal anything you're not willing to lose
thanks man!
Or gamble and then rant of global if it turns out bad

Ew, imagine having global chat enabled
I never got the spirit gem reward for completing the quest to kill King of the mists in act 1. Should I just start over or should I keep going and hope one drops soon for me?
make new character and farm it in act 1
He drops a spirit gem, it's not a quest reward
I think
wait I thought he drops the +30 spirit item and the quest give you the gem?
are odds evenly distributed between each outcome?
like of extra socket vs fuck your item
oh those are 1/4 1/4 1/4 1/4
I doubt it
I think when you use the +30 spirit item, it turns into a spirit gem on your cursor
Sigh… I’ll level and alt and go and try again then
This is another global channel, in a way, just 3rd party and you seem very much alive
i corrupted a bunch and had not a single good outcome
does act 2 only drop lvl 1 supp gems
oh that's true
its unreal bro
That makes all the difference. And I can reply to people
And react with fun little images
hello playboi carti
hes sooo goated bro
would resetting instances to farm bosses be a good way to farm exalteds?
No shot
and how u guys lvl up fast btw
I need one more to buy the staff I want 
I wouldnt worry about that just progress in campaign
im like 13 hours in and just made it to my second asendacy trial (my build was omega cooked earlyy)
I’m in cruel so I want an upgrade rn
Hi how do i getmore spirit?
I don't hang in global much, but I sure did see some vivid images in there too at some point
gambling
Do side objectives in the campaign to get a total of 100 base by the end of the campaign.
Or look for scepters, chest pieces, or amulets with spirit on them as a mod. Scepters always have spirit tho
Besides sceptres and permanent bonuses - gear (amulet, chest)
There's also a unique shield I believe that gives spirit
and ventor's gamble gold ring, tho expensive for good stats
Oh right!
any guilds going for smooth brains like myself
this game has pvp arena?
can i use cast on freeze and blink at the same time or is it only one at a time?
lol i've tried to buy so many things off the poe2trade website....I direct whisper via the website, no one responds. Should I be following up or proactively inviting the person?
What jewels would you guys recommend for a witch hunter that primarily uses grenades?
Is crossbow gas grenades plus explosive grenades broken or balanced?
broken
why everyone say that it looks fine
i didnt play game even but the name of the build seems broken 😄
oh lol
Some people go afk w/o afk mode, some are in the middle of a shitfest on a map and can't respond (then they forget to reply), some do invite but invite doesn't reach (says the person declined) so they give up on inviting. Many reasons really. In poe1 there are quite a few accounts that post lower price items to artificially lower the prices people set the item for, then they buy out with live search.. So yeah, just keep trying to find one that does reply or invite
what;s the best ascendancy for fireball?
Was very overtuned, got nerfed/adjusted, now it should be fair
i see, thanks
Wil theu ever make it so you can change ascendancy
My character is bricked I swear. Can't get the Kabala relic after accidentally destroying it
nothing is dropping it in Keth
i found answers! I was using the NOT filters correctly - but there are seperate fitlers for IMPLICIT values and affix rolls
To be fair, you're not missing much, but I would submit a ticket just in case
When trying to respec it's not letting me refund the points it's just wants to keep changing what it is to either strength intel or dex it won't let me refund. Does anyone know why it's doing that?
I can't progress, I'd say I'm missing a lot. Unless I can continue the campaign without it?
I don't think it's a main quest
What can Vaal orbs do to uniques ,
so when an enemy has grey icon it means it resists that particular thing , when it has red it means it takes more damage from it , but what does the yellow icon mean ?
saw some enemies with the armour icon in yellow
Are you trying to split your tree in 2?
You can, it's just an optional objective
Maybe that's what it is
Which of these is the main quest?
@lusty hinge
Bright Yellow
Nope, it has to be connected to your starting point
this icon what does it mean
Trail of corruption and seals
anyone available to help with doryani
where is a good place to farm for rares in a1 cruel? my gear is really behind on my character, or should i be crafting it?
Sure
ty. whats ign
I recommend buying some gear since farming is...
Hello everyone, I am trying to do my second ascendancy. I had a level 52 Djinn Barya, just used it and I have no option to ascend at the final room. Theres no prompt at the altar. HELP PLEASE
This is my second run with no option to ascend
Can’t ascend with those.
Check your dms
How does one ascend then?
umm does anyone know how to wake up, or fix 'the hooded one'
i only have 8 ex
Need level 60+ AND has to say this
that's decent
i've been stuck here for the last 30 min or so lol
Start a new instance
is that when i close the game, and open it again?
When you click on a door or waypoint, hold the button down instead of just pressing it
This is what I’m working with. Trying for second ascendancy. Wouldn’t that one you have grant the third ascendancy?
It’ll show you the active instance and option to start a new one too
ah ok, this should. I thought you meant third.
anyone willing to help out with one of the act2 bosses?
Did you do both rooms @neat lance you shouldve killed both bosses (Well technically there will be 3)
anyone know how to get to zigurat encampment present after act 3 cruel?
I certainly did not lol. I didnt know there was another room standby
Dumb question, was planning to play gas arrow
any idea why the icon won't go grey?
Is that build nerfed or something
i killed the boss 2x now
Do the main quest
it will be saved, walk past the reward chests and enter the door.
gate is gone
Welp Zed, im an idiot.... thank you for the help brother lol
i believe i did.. he shows up on my map lol
yes, tp to zigg waypoint and then enter the time portal to enter current timeline. Then if you need go back to aggorat, enter portal again.
this one? didnt see a portal there
just map area
portal isnt in map, go there and enter the portal like how you entered it to go to the past
big circle
like idk marvel movies?
you mean the area on my first screenshot?
wait let me see
jump into act 3 normal
Anyone got some low lvl witch items? (around lvl 10-11)
ok i guess that worked thanks
you completed the campaign? then yea sry its closed and you gotta go backwards. What do you want to do there? btw?
the hooded guy
oh doryani does the item reveal and passives now.
@lusty hinge i traced the line to where you first start and that line is connected i don't know what to do
If a skull on the map doesn't have the + symbol next to it, does that mean that it doesn't give anything important? (like +2 weapon set passives, + perma spirit, etc.) Like it's still a boss I can kill, but skipping it won't result in me missing something important?
if you can refund the skill, it will get refunded w/o giving you the choice of stats
@neat lance I wrote these tips to send someone but might also help for 3rd sanctum
Do the level 40s/50s 2 room sanctums you might have gotten in acts even if you have both sets of ascendancy points.
- Completing the 2 room trials unlocks some of these extra spaces in the Relic Altar. And this means you can fit in more relics like this for example (too lazy to include screenshot lol)
- Since the gear you are going to be getting from these are going to be lower level and irrelevant, just use the keys on any relic caches you see at the end.
- If you have a relic with just one mod, use aug orbs on them to see if you get a good mod (especially the relics that are higher item level)
why doesnt work with blasphemy when you can fit it in there?
pretty much, yes. they do have some things dropping here and there but not permanent buffs
Is this good?
"...skill that you use yourself..."
It is good but needs specific setup.
infernalist witch could be hella tanky w it from the looks of it
The 40% physical dmg taken as fire dmg, is that changing the dmg I receive to fire dmg?
yes
which is good because fire res is usually much stronger than armour
no 40% of all of the physical including bleed and corrupted blood will now be converted to fire damage. And if you have fire res capped, it is better than armor
and armour works better against smaller hits
I also found out that ES now kinda blocks bleed/physical dot which sounds crazy and maybe a bug
Oh damn, pretty cool but not sure it's what I want for my merc
intended, read the associated tooltips
es blocks poison and bleed
not generic phys dot though
I had only leveled Evasion based chars so far, so just read it in passing from a screenshot someone posted or maybe dreamcore video.
well the keyword reads that it bypasses, so idk how intended that is, unless it's a typo
it bypasses but can only be applied by hits that deal damage to energy shield
so if you only take damage from energy shield you are effectively immune'
Is this better on a weapon?
Does anybody know how to unlock the Trial Master for the 4th ascendency point? I've done Ultimatum 3 times and got the same fragment 3x...
anyone else also have a glitch where when you reallocate your skill points it doesnt save correctly
What level do you guys recommend for trial of sekhamas (sp.)
can someone help me with second ascendance trial
I’m looking for assistance with first ascension
Is there a channel for reporting bugs?
if i teleport out of a trial in progress can i return?
https://www.pathofexile.com/forum
There’s a bug reports section here you can post in
hi can i get someone to look at my build? Im new to POE and am having a hell of a time on the act 2 boss. Im lvl 35 and it took me 20 mins to get him to half hp lol
tradign with someone in Ziggurate town is so annoying
there is like 3 different version of the town
and you can't go back to your version easily
they should just let us use map teleport everywhere in town
Why can’t I dual wield act 3 maces ?
what happens if you brick a unique with vaal? turns into a rare?
im a lightning arrow ranger currently in act 2, is there anything that i can buy from trademarket to have significant improvement? im looking at kitoko glove rn
I should test using those on uniques tbh, haven’t bothered yet
but I have 3 voltaic staves for some reason
should i be wasting gold on low level gear? only lv13
or should i just get a better dps bow
what do you guys take for the second venom draught? they all seem really good
The further you go in to the story the more gold you make, but always keep some in case you need to change some stuff on your build(refunding points get more expensive the higher level u are)
thanks mate
all good i updated it make sure to take a look
If I ignite oil with a detonator like fire bomb, which skill benefits from ignite support buffs?
i remember hearing about the refund part i saw in there latest patch notes that there reducing that cost thank the lord
can anyone help me with molten vault, keep running out of time
ign: Zheiwa
again thx
dooes weilding a two handed weapon count as dual weilding ? crossbow in this case
After killing doryan was he gonna give me something after the dialogue? Cause I accidentally telported to town thinking I would sell to grab his stuff and then I get reset to act 1 lmao
Never got to talk to him
Just some dialogue
Talk to him Act 6 if you ain't wanna miss it, has lore
When you think the next patch will make campaign a bit easier but instead they nerf the gems
Oh okay good. Was worried he was ognna give me some permanent buff and I just trolled my self lol
Got my 300k gold ready for nerfs
Sorry to ask this but I was laid off and can’t afford the $30 to get in.. anyone willing to help out and I’ll pay you back? On ps5
🙏
what does this exactly mean ?
i thought proper controller support was on the to-do list
Using a armor evasion base helmet, take the lowest value of it and add to your stun threshold
The value of the armor or evasion, whichever is lower
i see , so like if the base has like 100 armour and 50 ev (just hypothetically) ill have +50 stun threshold ?
can u use gear with higher item level than ur character level?
as long as required level is equal or below its fine?
Hello anyone know about passive skill Acrobatics, it says evade all hits. But i still getting hit, it didnt work?
And attributes but yep
also does the helment need to have both armour and evasion ? or like if an helmet jsut has evasion will that work too ?
It's a chance to evade all hit types
check your evasion rating
It needs both. If you have a helmet with just evasion, then armor is the lowest of 0 so it adds nothing
i see
Oh i see, it means the type of hit i can evade, that means strong attack i can evade too. Okay got it
Thanks everyone
this
I know little about witch. Is it possible to play them without minions in a viable way? I'm interested in a flame build.
It's typically implied to mean you can avoid AOE hits with that node
go sorc
for a mercenary , what defences should i focus on ? both for items and skill gems i have no clue on the gems
The answer is yes, but why witch over sorc
Just like the infernalist ascendancy. I'm open to sorc, though. Any viable fire builds?
Probably, I haven't looked.
Not a ton of creativity as people are still learning the game so viable may have different meanings
Fair point. Thanks, I'll tinker and experiment a bit myself.
I'll say I've made 3 wonky builds and all have gotten to low tier maps
"Vaal Skeletal Squire." "This monster is imprisoned by powerful essences." What to do now?
Kill it
Click on it thrice to release it
Or be nice and let it rest
anyone know which poe1 character effects work here in poe2
how does physical damage leeched as mana work?
sounds op or am i miss understanding something?
man poe 2 you cant play high sadly unlike poe 1
do all bosses that give permanent buffs still give them in cruel?
Can anyone please tell me how to get back into this first room, after beating trials of Sekhemas?? My game IMMEDIATELY crashed upon choosing my ascendancy. The room had chest and stuff inside it. I’m not sure if I was suppose to do something in this room. The game just spawned me back at the original relic altar.
Was I suppose to do anything in that room?
Hey! I got to the last boss in the trials whilst being level 23. Is the rattlecage guy supposed to be a DPS check or maybe I'm doing something wrong? By the time I get this guy to half HP he just floods the whole arena with his small volcanos making it quite literally unplayable unless you want to do anything other than dodging. I mean, I can always come back to it later, but I was just wondering whether I can avoid or handle this mechanic somehow.
what vial should i pick?, what's most important?
depends
if u need mana go mana
