[inland sentinel]

Yeah it’s a manual process

[vestal vessel]

so then how else would I go about killing the asina person

[inland sentinel]

You have explosive grenade?

[vestal vessel]

yea but it’s only lvl 2

[inland sentinel]

I would pretty much use that + fragmentation rounds up until you get incendiary

Then you can continue the whole game until you get gas grenade and flame wall

[vestal vessel]

I thought the permafrost are better tho?

[inland sentinel]

Flame wall is a spell tho

Under sorceress

[weak harness]

anyone know?

[vestal vessel]

So u don’t ever use permafrost?

[inland sentinel]

I don’t really use it

But it’s good for freezing bosses

I would also pick up flash grenade

Good utility for bosses

[vestal vessel]

yea I thought that plus the explosive = big chunk

[ebon moss]

If you want to look at the item affixes https://poe2db.tw/us/Modifiers

[vestal vessel]

Cuz the fire and ice

[inland sentinel]

For mercenary, fire is actually better

But on witch/sorc, fire is weakest

[vestal vessel]

wtf ass backward logic is that 😂😂😂

[dark tusk]

why does it say NO SKILLS AFFECTED on the ailments skill tree passives when my skills are build around cold?

[inland sentinel]

Yup

[vestal vessel]

So a MAGE can’t use fire but a hired gunman can

Checks out

[acoustic narwhal]

is there a way to respect the entire passive board without it costing a fortune?

[inland sentinel]

Yeah cause bunch of fire shots > dmg over time

And ignite sucks

[vestal vessel]

well I was following this which said to get it (idk why tbh) but figured it was legit

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/935c1e59-4ac0-48b0-9eea-61b7d3f2af59/builds/bec68c0b-2e23-49c1-9269-39097551d8dc?weaponSet=set1

[inland sentinel]

Stacking damage, adding stuns, and layering your oil grenades, it’s just easy for merc to deal damage

[vestal vessel]

So guess I’ll respec if I can out of it

[inland sentinel]

Yeah it should be fairly low to respecc

Especially early

[vestal vessel]

So then gas grenade isn’t good anymore or something cuz the videos show people just laying waste with it

[inland sentinel]

Gas grenade is good when paired with something that can ignite it

[vestal vessel]

which would be the explosive I thought

and then the ice is just to ensure it all hits

[inland sentinel]

Although there is a unique glove that will let you just shoot gas grenades and it will explode

No 2nd button required

[vestal vessel]

yea they mention that

but said it’s not till endgame

[inland sentinel]

Not sure but I heard it’s quite expensive

Yeah it’s a late game item

[vestal vessel]

I mean tbh u can just discord trade anything in this game

[inland sentinel]

True

[vestal vessel]

soooo expensive is relative

[spark light]

Hi! In temple of kopec fight. if you die, is it supposed to ignore the checkpoint and send you back to the beginning with no way to TP back?

[weak harness]

ty

[inland sentinel]

Did you check the waypoint?

[weak harness]

im a bit confused on how the prefix and suffix work

[inland sentinel]

You can tp to the other waypoint if you discovered 2

[vestal vessel]

If d4 taught me anything is there’s a reason why unqiue Ubers weren’t tradeable

which I’m surprised they don’t do

[spark light]

I dont think there are 2 waypoints in the Ziggarat.

[rocky thorn]

listen you don't understand. this is an advanced twig circlet

[vestal vessel]

Well at any rate u wanna help this noob get thru this boss?

[inland sentinel]

Is that the zone with barely any checkpoints?

Haha lol I need to get back to my own farm

[dusty sedge]

This hat I picked up has some kind of socket - what's it for?

[inland sentinel]

Sockets are for runes

[dusty sedge]

The item description doesn't mention anyting.

... rune? O.o

[inland sentinel]

Runes grant an extra implicit mod that can’t be removed

Once slotted in

[vestal vessel]

They need better tool tips / tutorials in this game tbh 😅

[inland sentinel]

Tbh this community are the tool tips

[vestal vessel]

yea but still

[inland sentinel]

In game has never been very clear about what is necessary or what is important

[vestal vessel]

shouldn’t be u need an external thing to have basic concepts is what I mean

[inland sentinel]

That’s sort of what has happened over time though, they valued that their community has a strong vetted interest in teaching new and casual players how to play the game

[vestal vessel]

like after u get cut from the rope they should like show u all this stuff tbh before u enter the town thing

[inland sentinel]

And they rolled with it because players do it better than devs

[vestal vessel]

Which tbh is different from a lot of other RPGs

[civic cedar]

How do you get golden tomb to complete in lost city? I killed all the bugs and there's nothing to interact with. I'm on cruel if that makes it different.

[inland sentinel]

Yeah that’s true

[vestal vessel]

Most rpgs u ask ull just get the typical “ GIT GUD”

[inland sentinel]

lol well tbh it is still kind of the same in Poe but we’re more like memeing/joking

People will actually give tips in global chat

If you ask questions

[vestal vessel]

well yea but there it’s like nope that’s the answer

[azure lava]

The first question I'd ask is how to read about underlined keywords on console

[vestal vessel]

There’s underlined words?

[inland sentinel]

I don’t know anything about console

[azure lava]

Yeah, on most tooltips. At least on pc

[vestal vessel]

0.o

oh

U mean the compare things

u just hit r3 on it then x

[tribal wagon]

are skill gems bound to weapon types now?

[inland sentinel]

Uh yeah kinda

Some are weapon bound just by nature of requiring specific weapons to be wielded

[vestal vessel]

How does one “ ascend” or whatever cuz the build in following requires the ascend skills?

[inland sentinel]

But other than that, everything should be global

[tribal wagon]

theres no scepter? what skills are possible with scepters?

[inland sentinel]

You will encounter your first ascension trial in act 2

[vestal vessel]

Occult

[vestal vessel]

Fml

[inland sentinel]

You get to pick 1 of 2 subclasses of your class you’re playing

[coarse moth]

Hello everyone! what can i do? it is just greyed out with no new objective?

[inland sentinel]

You cannot change this decision later tho

[vestal vessel]

so the act 1 boss is just gonna rub his nuts on my face till I just get someone to hard carry me tf on

Cuz the cheese requires the ascension

[inland sentinel]

Uh yeah kinda

[vestal vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/welp-gif-25015693

[inland sentinel]

Geonor is tough if you don’t know what you’re doing

[azure lava]

There are several underlined words/phrases in the gem description you posted earlier

[vestal vessel]

Yea u just hit r3 then x

[azure lava]

They're all over the place

[inland sentinel]

But after having practiced with him for like 5 characters and 2 versions of act 1-3 I’d say all the bosses are now easy

[vestal vessel]

So uhhh wanna get me thru this fucking grave yard

🙃

[inland sentinel]

How will you learn if I carry you

[nocturne swift]

Better for early game storm weaver?

[azure lava]

Talk to Zarka, enter the Ardura

[ebon turret]

i cant read that

[vestal vessel]

I learned how to be carried?

[inland sentinel]

But the journey starts with the first step

[vestal vessel]

https://tenor.com/view/tkt-smart-gif-20642718

[inland sentinel]

Act 1 is the first step

[azure lava]

I'm perplexed as to what is on the unique that could make you possibly think it's better than the rare that's 22 levels higher with life, spirit, and resists

[vestal vessel]

Ah yes but see what if the step is instead a push 0.o

[inland sentinel]

And you’ll find bigger and more difficult monsters than Geonor

[coarse moth]

THANK YOU THANK YOU!

[vestal vessel]

Also who tf is genome

[inland sentinel]

No idea idk

[weak harness]

is there any item other than boots that can give move speed and rarity?

[inland sentinel]

Not a lore Andy

[nocturne swift]

My bad

[ebon turret]

rarity can be on necklace and rings

[azure lava]

Movement speed is only boots. Rarity can be on almost anything but weapons, I think

[buoyant quarry]

Why tf is it sideways

[vestal vessel]

I’m on the cementary of enteral boss

unless that who u mean

[azure lava]

That's the same image

[weak harness]

oh is it? I was sure I saw it on other things
so is move speed only from boots and passive tree?

[inland sentinel]

Uh yeah you’re not at Geonor

But Draven is 2nd hardest boss of act 1

Oh wait forgot, Lachlann can be too but you just have to dodge 1 big earth slam

[azure lava]

Yeah, and maybe uniques in other slots

[vestal vessel]

Thought so I’m on some “ my family die must kill” guy who like sniffed a whole line of coke and is wilding out on me

[nocturne swift]

It is but I was trying to get a clearer picture.

[molten pond]

Rerollin from LA to something new. what is everyone doing?

[buoyant quarry]

Invoker Monk

[nocturne swift]

Taking a picture of it on my ROG lol

[dusty sedge]

Is there a waypoint in the Grelwood in act 1?

[vestal vessel]

Oh lovely that makes me feel better then cuz FUCKKKKK this guy

[dusty sedge]

Found one in every adjoining zone but not that one yet

[buoyant quarry]

Yes it's near the center of the map

[azure lava]

Oh, I could read it fine, but yeah. The rare is better than the unique in every conceivable way and several other inconceivable ways

[weak harness]

oh well damn

[nocturne swift]

Understood thank you.

[azure lava]

There's no shot this kind of post is allowed on this server

[inland sentinel]

yeah that's not allowed

[buoyant quarry]

<@&174997701513969665> ?

[nocturne swift]

#1312645838727811163

[buoyant quarry]

Oh hi Cinder xD

Didn't realize you were mod already here mb

[inland sentinel]

hi

[ember fox]

Oh oops didnt know it wasnt allowed my b

[inland sentinel]

uh, yeah

i was mainly just a helper tho

[azure lava]

Rule #3

[vestal vessel]

Anyone know how to dispose of these guys with shields quickly as a merc?

[inland sentinel]

well we already have lfg channels + it can't be paid busses

per discord's rules

[azure lava]

"merc" tells me almost nothing. What skills are you using? If they're too much of a pain you can always just skip em and move on

[ember fox]

Noted

[vestal vessel]

There like RIGHT at the spawn

And Merc is the class

[azure lava]

Every class can use every skill and gear, so it tells me nothing about what their build does

[vestal vessel]

I thought I ss the skills I had

I can try to do it again

[inland sentinel]

well fairly certain it's generic crossbow build

[azure lava]

You can cut a gem to be any skill on any class

[inland sentinel]

going gas grenade route

[neat musk]

@inland sentinel

[neat musk]

can you trade me 2 divines for 118 exalts man I really need to buy a new wand but I cant unless I get these like RN

[azure lava]

Oh, sorry, I spaced and didn't realize it was you who asked that.

Yeah, but it still stands. Skip it or reset the zone if it's actually blocking you

[inland sentinel]

that's really bold of you to ask a mod to give you currency lol

and ping them

[neat musk]

im giving you 118 exalts tho

:C

[azure lava]

Holy shit

This is gold

[buoyant quarry]

xD

[inland sentinel]

I don't have divs anyway

thanks for asking

[neat musk]

awwww

ok sorry

[ebon turret]

i wonder how a stormreave melee sorce with monk abilities will do

[azure lava]

I'd recommend you check out #rules-and-info

You'll see why what you did was hilarious

[neat musk]

oh

oops

🤣

[undone holly]

Anyone have tips for sorc act 1 damage? I'm finding Sorc way harder then the other classes i've played. Freeze CC is funny but I can't seem to do much damage, bosses are pain

[neat musk]

atleast it was a mod

😂

[inland sentinel]

cold is funky until act 3

I'd consider spark/flame wall

but that's like complete opposite of cold build

[azure lava]

If you have a staff with the ice shards spell, I think it's very good for single target. But other than that, yeah, it's kinda meh

[undone holly]

It doesn't help that I don't have a Spirit gem so no Ice Herald : (

[azure lava]

I actually used a crossbow swap so I could throw out three explosive grenades while my unleash was charging up for my ice shard spell

[dapper cosmos]

I'm hard stuck on the first ascendancy trial because every time I do the chalice trial, i cant interact with the chalices when there's monsters nearby because I'm on controller. Is there a setting or something to fix that?

[lament lotus]

Anyone mind helping with Draven Boss Fight Act 1 Cruel AutumnnWind is my tag

[vestal vessel]

Anyone know of a good build or whatever for the Merc then?

[azure lava]

No, the chalice has an animation. The intended way is for you to kill all the monsters before interacting with the chalice

You're talking about the one that restores honor, right?

[azure lava]

I'd check mobalytics, maxroll, or YouTube. Ziggyd has a solid merc guide on YouTube I think

[dapper cosmos]

It's the one where yoi get put on a timer and have to touch the death crystals

[timid ledge]

which venom do i take for gas grenade witchhunter? elemental ailments or mana regen???

[azure lava]

Whatever you prefer. It's not super impactful and it's not gonna make or break anything

[azure lava]

Ah, then I have no idea, sorry

[civic cedar]

Is it possible to complete the Golden Tomb in Lost City on cruel? I can't find a way to complete it

[azure lava]

#2┃looking-for-group

[round oak]

hey kinda dumb question but why cant i put more sockets on poison concoction?

[dapper cosmos]

There's no way I can kill them fast enough and still touch the crystal, and I'm lvl 32 doing this on a sorceress. My damage is usually fine but by the time I reach the crystal, I'll only have 2-3 seconds left every time and there's no way for me to get there faster. These trials seem to just be horribly coded for controller

Literally can't ascend now

[azure lava]

Jewelers orbs only work on skills that come from gems. Ascendancy skills gain sockets as you gain character levels

[timid ledge]

really? the 30% elemntal ialments wont matter llater?

or its just minor?

[round oak]

appreciate the help

[azure lava]

It's ailment threshold, it's not super huge. They're all stuff you can get on the tree from like 2-3 small nodes

Happy to help, ballsackjuice

[plush charm]

why is force of will buggs

*bugged

force of will does nothing LOL

[azure lava]

Do you actually expect us to have an answer, or are you venting?

[tiny cosmos]

I feel like the answer is self-explanatory, but if you're building Spell Crit, nodes on the passive tree that just grant flat "Critical Hit Chance" have no effect on spells, right?

I feel the need to ask because aguide that I'm looking at focuses on spell crit, but has a lot of the Critical Hit nodes on the tree and I don't wholly understand why

[azure lava]

If it's the latter, #2┃general

[plush charm]

im just laughing at myself mostly XD

[azure lava]

What nodes on the tree grant flat "critical hit chance"? I don't know what that means, either

Most, if not all, of the crit nodes are "increased critical strike chance"

Hold alt and read about that, especially the last paragraph

[chrome rapids]

~price 1 exalted Can I add text to this to identify which tab?

[timid ledge]

are there any white items i should be picking up?

[chrome rapids]

I've got 10 of them

[timid ledge]

and how to identify

[chrome rapids]

Like I want ~price 1 exalted A and ~price 1 exalted B and so on

[azure lava]

White jewelery sells for a good amount of gold, imo. I'd pick up all the best available white items for bases that you're looking to upgrade

[chrome rapids]

I just don't want to break my listings

[azure lava]

No, that breaks the pricing as far as I know

You can recolor them though

[narrow swan]

Does this actually affect cross bow damage??? it shows it might?

[tiny cosmos]

Sorry if that wasn't clear. There are nodes that explicitly state "Critical Hit for Spells", versus nodes that just say "Critical Hit Chance"

[azure lava]

Yeah, hold alt and read about crossbows

[tiny cosmos]

and I wasn't sure if it was that there are nodes that buff exclusively spells, or if it was that spells are only buffed if they're explicitly mentioned

[azure lava]

If it isn't specified, it affects crit chance for all hits, including spells

[narrow swan]

ahh awesome thx

[unborn dust]

this may sounds counter intuitive, but it's way more effective to "farm" tier 1 waystone maps in the campaign act 3 cruel, than inside the own Tier 1 maps.. Dropped 4 already. And in my main im having issues dropping them inside the endgame '-'... broo

almost every elite drops one

if anyone is struggling to get low tier maps like i am, get back to campaign xD

they may buffed a bit to get players ready whenever they finish it

[vestal vessel]

Welp got asina down

[vestal vessel]

Ok I’ll YouTube him

[azure lava]

Well, considering this is the channel for people that haven't beaten the campaign yet, I'd wager #2┃after-acts-help needs the advice more

[agile scarab]

is there a dedicated trading section? i want to trade with some people

[calm urchin]

what does this shrine give?

[agile scarab]

the fickle blessings of the wind

[fair arch]

It gives "Blessing of the Wind"

[azure lava]

I think a permanent buff of some kind

But I've ever actually gotten a shrine

[calm urchin]

hmm

[unborn dust]

this is also a channel for new players, to help each other. im still on the campaign tho, barely touched endgame. If the advice is not useful for you just ignore it. or feel free to share in other channel if u want

[past rain]

I’m so good at this game

[exotic shard]

where is the 3rd ascendency trial i cleared traitors passage 2 times and no trial entrance :/

[azure lava]

Please read the description of this channel tho

[unborn dust]

Ok

[azure lava]

It's not tied to that quest, it's bugged and should be ignored. You need a 3-trial sekhema key (Djinn Barya) or a 10-round ultimatum for your third ascension. They're random drops and I think they don't drop til area level 60+

[fair arch]

Thanks was wondering why the quest wasnt changing

[exotic shard]

ok i have they djinn barya key but where is the trial?

[azure lava]

You can use the same door you used in normal

[exotic shard]

oh ok thanks

[azure lava]

Did you actually find a 3-trial key?

I guess I should ask first, how many ascendancy points have you accrued so far?

[dapper cosmos]

Guys, I've been playing a freeze sorceress and now I need to pick my ascendancy. Stormweaver or chronomancer, which would you recommend? They both sound very different to how I've been playing

[timid ledge]

how do i put the soul core into teh stone altar

stuck on it now

[calm urchin]

for anyone wondering this is what blessings of the winds are

[azure lava]

They don't really have to change anything about how you play all that much depending on your build and the points you take. You can take the enemy slow, the two recoup nodes, and temporal rift and basically do the same thing but way tankier as chronomancer. If you don't have a build plan in mind and this is your first time seeing them, I'd recommend taking your time and reading them carefully.

Hold alt and hover to learn more about underlined keywords and abilities

[azure lava]

Holy balls

[dapper cosmos]

I'm on controller and "R" for info doesn't do anything

[azure lava]

Does the size match? I think stone altars need small ones

[azure lava]

I think it's R3 and then X?

[royal fable]

Are these anygood vvvvvv

[azure lava]

If your current boots have no movement speed, maybe

That 4th line is a hefty downside

Your call tho

[royal fable]

K thank u

[past rain]

I recommend the elementalist and take arcane surge

[azure lava]

Stormweaver*

[past rain]

Ok i recommend not chronomancer and take arcane surge

[royal fable]

This is my current armour is anything on it bad aswell ?

[azure lava]

Only unique (orange) items typically have actively detrimental mods. Nothing about your chest is harming you, but it's just really mediocre. Life and resistances are king and it has barely any of either

[dapper cosmos]

I can choose between stormweaver and chronomancer. Do you mean stormweaver by elementalist? Because that's what I'm weighing towards but on the other hand, it does seem to be focused on lightning damage more

@past rain

[azure lava]

It isn't actually that focused on lightning, tbh

[dapper cosmos]

I do see quite a few shock chance increase stuff

[past rain]

Yeah it’s not. And most likely on your first character you’re only going to get 4 points to use

[azure lava]

It has a node that lets all of your elemental damage shock, I think. Which means it's actually better for non-lightning

[zenith crescent]

is it best to sell items or disenchant them?

[woven saddle]

How much res do you need to rescap in endgame again?

135%?

[azure lava]

Depends on who you ask.

I sell everything except for items with sockets, rares that barely sell for anything, and 6-mod rares

[azure lava]

Yep, you have - 60% from the campaign

[dapper cosmos]

I'll just take stormweaver then. Seems like the more damage oriented choice atleast, thanks

[woven saddle]

and +20 from the campaign also right

so 115% total

[zenith crescent]

So this weapon that sells for 2k but has 2 rune slots, would you sell it or salvage it?

[azure lava]

Oh, true... I think it's 20%.

[azure lava]

Salvage 1000%

But keep in mind I play ssf so I can't trade for artificer orbs

[azure lava]

It definitely can be. If you build around chronomancer's cool down shenanigans, it can enable really strong builds. But in general, yeah, storm weaver is probably the more straightforward and powerful choice for spells

[steel cipher]

Question

[naive moth]

Ohh, so Stormweaver is why there's so much demand for the mana soul cores

[steel cipher]

is there any option to move and channel a skill at the same time, while being able to change movement direction (without releasing channeled skill)?

Left Mouse to move, no WASD

[tough summit]

Can anyone help me beat mad wolf

[cold oak]

can anyone tell me if the expedition boss needs a logbook of above a certain level to spawn? ive been doing many but i dont seem to see him

[limpid olive]

is +1 for all skills overall better than like +2 or +3 to a specific type of spell?

[plain abyss]

when are they gonna fix this multithreading

this stuttering is insane and its always when im in chaos trial

[summer burrow]

next year perhaps

[weak harness]

is this worth anything?

[subtle matrix]

so like why is this coming soon

[fluid heart]

the lore is coming soon

[swift yacht]

that just means the flavor text is coming soon.

[limpid olive]

hey guys question.... so im trying to compare a weapon on the trade shop to others to get an idea.... and one of my "stats" don't exist on the stat filter so im confused

[craggy gyro]

hey yall 😄 looking for some people to join for the start of act 2 c:

[fair arch]

item hasnt been released yet

[subtle matrix]

lmao alr. kinda a funny way to display it

[weak harness]

anyone know?

[fair arch]

no because damage is too low. maybe if there was a way to increase an unique items level

[stark lynx]

Its really good for its lvl req

[tender sequoia]

i grabbed a large node in the skill tree and the light around the other nodes i had near it faded, does this mean i lost them?

[acoustic narwhal]

I have a helm that has 35% reduced attribute requirements but its still showing the same amount of strength that i need as if i didnt wear that helm...

so i am kinda confused

[reef badger]

Has anyone had the problem of King in the Mists in cruel not giving the spirit reward?

[nocturne swift]

which is better for early game sw?

[weak harness]

is this choice perm basically?

[blissful furnace]

why is everybody selling in divine orb?

[zealous osprey]

Inflation is real buddy

More people reach endgame, more people have currency, more the prices of better gear to upgrade further, and the loop continues

[zealous osprey]

Yep

[weak harness]

im not built for this stuff man

[placid dock]

What are these for? Can't see an option to exchange to Oswald.

[zealous osprey]

Sell

[ebon turret]

wooooo campaign done 😄

so how hard are maps?

[near perch]

does anyone know how much the ring worth ? i put 3 exalted and ppl spamming me. some offer 3 divine orb. sorry im new to poe.

[buoyant quarry]

They start at lvl 65 or 66 I think, so they just gradually scale up with you. If you've got defences and good damage you're chillin'

[ebon turret]

and i have decent damage

[buoyant quarry]

Looking good!

I'm also playing Invoker Monk :)

[zealous osprey]

Monka giga

[soft tendon]

cast speed, mana, int and I guess mana regen are all playing into the current hotcakes-build that is int stacking spark

[shut abyss]

you'll be fine

[soft tendon]

I cannot tell you what to price this at; just to give you some perspective on who your customers probably are

[faint shadow]

are unearth and grim feast incompatible ? I think reviving those tiny minions consume grim remnants.... ? does anyone know ?

[soft tendon]

I believe that isn't considered reviving minions in the context of grim feast?

[zealous osprey]

Given how both gems read, they shouldn't be incompatible

[soft tendon]

as in, that refers to stuff like skeletons you reserve spirit for which respawn after they die

[zealous osprey]

If you're facing issues, then it might be a bug

[faint shadow]

i think grim remnants dissapear when i cast unearth and minions revive from those bodies

[grave tree]

is it normal that a yellow mob is out regening the damage my friend and i are doing to it... lol

[fervent leaf]

sounds like a bug, are you sure the remnants arent just despawning, or that youre picking them up by accident

[near perch]

this is my first time received like 50+ offering. i was shocked. thanks for clarify.

[fervent leaf]

if you got a really bad mod combo its not impossible, what does it have?

[faint shadow]

i made sure to be as far away as i could. I tried the same with corpse explosion and sometimes they disapear too but unlike unearth, some remnants stay

[ebon turret]

bro the endgame is way better than the campaign this is fun

[fervent leaf]

might as well get a vid and submit a bug report on the forums then

[grave tree]

it was just regen and the periodic fire but it was surprising that the regen was that high

[zealous osprey]

Do note that if a remnant lies around for too long, absorbing them won't give ES (in my experience)

[fervent leaf]

maybe it just had high resist vs whatever element you deal

[finite hound]

hey how do i make it so items dropped are always shown?

[fervent leaf]

press z again

[zealous osprey]

My endgame mapper sometimes suffers on some rares which have mana siphon + regen + cold resist

[fervent leaf]

almost everyone accidentaly hits z and then wonders why they cant see items, its like a rite of passage

[zealous osprey]

Which is like 3 ugh combos given I have AoE clear build and not bossing build

[grave tree]

huh ok... dang

[zealous osprey]

Might be similar for you both

[faint shadow]

yeah, i tried with both recently spawned or a few sseconds ones

[grave tree]

first time my friend and i rane from a yellow lmao (this is actiii)

[zealous osprey]

IMO, they should just despawn expired remnants, but that's prolly a super low priority patch

[void veldt]

can you put a new rune into a spot already socketed with a rune?

[dim junco]

bro, u can complete the whole 6 portals in endgame????? i was doing only 1 and putting a new waystone.......

[zealous osprey]

Negative

[zealous osprey]

If you die, portal gone

Else you can go in and out multiple times, each time going in consumes 1 port

[buoyant quarry]

Portals go to the same area, it's just so you can port out to drop gear off and then go back in

[void veldt]

yikes.. that's rough that the rune socket is just bricked once used, no changing.

[dim junco]

tyty

[zealous osprey]

Gotta make conscious decisions for "final" variants of gear

[dim junco]

once its complete just put a new waystone, right?

[zealous osprey]

Campaign gear is wtev, you'll eventually change it

[buoyant quarry]

Yep

[dim junco]

also, what's the best way to level up in endgame? i had to respec my passives and i lost a lot of dmg nodes

lvl 71 rn

[buoyant quarry]

I too moved a lot into defense around there, so it slowed me down for a bit but I upgraded my weapon and it made a massive difference. Just keep running maps and killing as much as you can, highest tier you can for the most XP

[jolly veldt]

Hey guys can yall help me understand why i cant equip this skill

[fervent leaf]

wdym cant equip, it looks equipped to me?

[jolly veldt]

it doesnt show up here

and i cant drag it in either

[fervent leaf]

so you have the gem socketed but the skill doesnt appear?

[jolly veldt]

yes

[wise sun]

is there a way to check your item dps like on the trade site in game?

[dim junco]

how much time do u think it takes to get to 85-90 from 71?

[buoyant quarry]

I'm not sure, I'm 76 atm and it's fairly steady, but it is slowing down so it'll take quite some time to get to 90 I think, much less 100

[void veldt]

old fashioned way. (Min+Max)quality/2attack speed.
so for example phys dps there is (63+253)*1.2/2/1.6=303.36

discord ate part of that formula..

(min+max)*quality/2*attack speed

[fervent leaf]

uhhh try taking the gem out and putting it back in?

[hybrid moon]

is this rare

[wise sun]

ic. ty

[void veldt]

eventually we'll have path of building for poe 2 and you'll be able to import your items into it and see their dps like the trade website, but until then.. we do maths

[jolly veldt]

it doesnt work

[real moon]

Which sceptre would be better in this case?
+3 minion levels vs 58% damage boost for minions?

[jolly veldt]

should i log out with it out of socket

[fervent leaf]

yeah try rebooting, and if that doesnt work maybe cut a new gem?

[void veldt]

can you show us a screenshot of how it looks with it in the socket?

[fervent leaf]

pretty sure gem levels is by far the most important. also malice is a dps boost whereas discipline isnt

[real moon]

So the omen sceptre is much better?

[fervent leaf]

yeah

[fervent leaf]

what are the supports

[oblique panther]

hey, quick question, what does frenzy charge quality upgrade do?

[fervent leaf]

weird. does unsocketing the supports fix it?

[jolly veldt]

nope

[void veldt]

hmm yeah maybe try it without the supports for now. also what about clicking the ability itself from the gem window, not dragging, but just clicking the ability?

[real moon]

Is there a good way to check DPS difference? hypothetically if I had a 58% ally boost and a +2 minion level boost vs a +3 minion level, which one would be bettter? Do you know if the extra level be much better?

[fervent leaf]

unfortunately minion skills are kinda bad at displaying accurate dps

[void veldt]

hmm yeah that seems odd.. it looks like it should be working just fine

[fervent leaf]

i think the best test is to go into a boss and see how much damage you do with each sceptre

at least you get a dps number next to their health bar

[real moon]

I think im in the middle of act 3. Can you rebattle bosses in this game? Also I always wondered what that number next to their health bar was lol

[jolly veldt]

nothing works

it was main skill too

[fervent leaf]

yeah if you wait until the zone expires, or ctrl click the zone on the world map to force a new instance, you can fight the boss again

[fervent leaf]

did you try making a new gem?

[jolly veldt]

oh i havent

[shell pagoda]

What is the best level to do the 3rd part of the trial? It's the one with honor

[void veldt]

can you click the little -> arrow on eye of winter?

[fervent leaf]

overlevel a little but more importantly farm relics for honour resistance

[jolly veldt]

this worked

wow

[fervent leaf]

you can get 70%+ with just the slots unlocked from floors 1/2

which more than triples your honour pool effectively

[void veldt]

can you click the -> arrow on the one that wasn't working real quick? I want to see something

[jolly veldt]

its lvl 13 now instead but its better then nothing

[fervent leaf]

yeah ok im baffled at why that fixes it but yay

ive seen other people end up with bugged gems before, seems to be a recurring issue

[fervent leaf]

[void veldt]

the used with weapon set things look strange.. is it selected to be used with one fo your weapon sets?

though the rest of it looks cursed, too

[zealous osprey]

How TF do we set used with weapon set though?

Never quite figured that out

Though I do know how to set weapon set pts

[void veldt]

very bottom, check boxes

[zealous osprey]

PoG

Thanks mate

[jolly veldt]

omg

i dont remember unchecking the boxes

[zealous osprey]

Sir, I need some of what you're having

[void veldt]

aha, so that was it? i guess it gets wonky if both are unchecked

[jolly veldt]

yea

Thank you so much guys

[ebon turret]

what are these buffs

[brazen axle]

Im fighting viper boss in utzaal but its lagging me like crazy I cant do anything lol does anyone have advice to fix?

Never had lag in a boss fight till this

[void veldt]

man, mapping is rough so far. half my maps are bugged and killing every monster still doesn't complete them, or have doors that just won't open after throwing all the switches..

plus i lose 10% lightning res once i leave town.. lol

[manic niche]

how I can use this item quest

[shut abyss]

you drop them into a cooking pot that is on the same zone

[manic niche]

location ?

[shut abyss]

apex of filth

[narrow swan]

is the Trial of Chaos Buggeed? i cant find any levers trying to do the Soul Core part

[devout prairie]

there a list anywhere of all working MTXs in poe2 or naahh ?

[verbal quest]

Most often right side of the map. North east

[lethal nimbus]

Hi, anything i can buy from trade market to have a smoother progressing? what should i be looking for

currently at near end of act 2

[frigid ivy]

will there be a snow act in the campaign when its fully released

[brazen axle]

not letting me enter

now its making me do it all again lol wtf

[last bison]

Can some help me kill Jamanra The Abomination please. Add Esmeralda_Vermont

[abstract rain]

i need help in ogham farm and village

[tender crescent]

does anybody has a list of sought after uniques? i dnt know which white items to keep for crafting 🥺 i only know azure amulet, jewelled gloves and utility belt

[fluid heart]

is there a website or wiki listing the drop rate/source

[sage oasis]

Hello how envenom gem works? how much damage do it as poison?

[cold mica]

whats the best amour for mages

[daring dragon]

The base damage per second dealt by a single poison is based on 30% of the combined flat physical and chaos damage of the hit.

[daring dragon]

Depends on your build

[cold mica]

arc mage nearly no strengh/dex

[past rain]

why does this staff i found have 7 attributes on it (no implicits)? i didnt think that was possible

[zealous osprey]

Usually armour or a combination of armour and ES

[zealous osprey]

One affix is double line

Or more

[cold mica]

thx

[zealous osprey]

One or more*

[past rain]

oh yeah true. even so it has 6. i didnt even know that was possible either lol

[zealous osprey]

Blue 2 max, yellow 6 max

[regal forge]

Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting 0 search results when I search for waystones on the trade site? No matter what tier I search for, 0 listings - every other item returns results, just not waystones

[past rain]

must be unlikely as hell i feel like it's the first i've noticed in 100 hours

[zealous osprey]

Can't list waystones in bulk

Doesn't stack

Search for singles using normal trade

[rustic charm]

question if i have 100% critical chance for spells, it would critical all the time right?

[stark lynx]

We dont know drop rates, most uniques are random drop, barring ilvl requirements

[regal forge]

oh ffs

[short axle]

So im here at cruel. I placed the key on the door, but after that i get no door to get in. If i try to join another player in there, it says not the required quest state. What the hell am i supposed to do ?

[stark lynx]

This node alone wont put you to 92% crit chance

[delicate copper]

No. It increases the critical hit chance of a move by 100%. Assuming your base crit chance is 5%, then it increases it to 10%.

[past rain]

it's times 1.92 not +.92

[fluid heart]

thanks, do we know the source/drop table for some items tho?

[rustic charm]

💀 OH I SEE

[delicate copper]

Yeah, you'll get used to it.

[sage oasis]

thank u

[stark lynx]

Wiki might have some, generally if something is drop restricted its more or less synonymous with end game pinnacle boss

[regal forge]

neither do precursor tablets but they work on bulk sale - thanks a ton though, that's what it was

[forest bramble]

Can I leave this for later? No idea what I should be doing with this

[short axle]

How do i reset a quest ? or a map ? The fucking quest i have is on the camp, how do i reset the camp ?

[fluid heart]

thank you

[zealous osprey]

It works like a vaal orb

[stark lynx]

Ie floor4 boss of trials has specific drops

Etc

[zealous osprey]

Ctrl + Shift + Clik entrance or waypoint from another zone to reset map

[worthy wharf]

I spent on an alternative frost respec after cof nerf and it's still awful, so little damage. what do sorceress have now, archmage electricity and like frostfire?

[zealous osprey]

Fireball + Frost Wall blasts maps

Haven't tried lightning builds

[stark lynx]

Seen ppl talk about spark

[zealous osprey]

I'm doing pure cold damage too BTW

[timber patio]

hey guys can someone help me with the temple of chaos?

[forest bramble]

Noob q, what does that do and should I use it now?

[zealous osprey]

It corrupts items

Can search wiki for how corruption works

Usually would recommend not to corrupt something you can't afford to brick rn

[limpid olive]

my guide says I want a shield as a sorc... How do I get access to a shield

[short axle]

What can you do when your quest progress is basically bricked ?

[zealous osprey]

Just, get a shield?

I mean... You can't use a 2 handed weapon with shield

So wand + shield combo

Staffs wont work

[scenic salmon]

Cry to cope

[zealous osprey]

Which one?

[short axle]

or uninstall i guess

[limpid olive]

i had a shield but it wouldnt let me put it on though

[short axle]

cruel, act 3, before entering the temple underneath the camp. I got the key, put it on the door, door dissapears and i dont get the text to enter.

[zealous osprey]

Shields usually need some strength

Do you have enough strength?

[limpid olive]

oh that might be it

[scenic salmon]

There are Dex shields too you'll just need to find it

[zealous osprey]

Might be an instance issue... Did the quest update to stay search for knowledge?

[short axle]

Quest still says enter the temple.

[zealous osprey]

True, but casters usually use ES (int) or Armour (str) shields

[scenic salmon]

Can you create a new instance?

[short axle]

I really dont know how.

[scenic salmon]

If you CTRL the way point I believe?

[short axle]

i did do that.

same thing

[scenic salmon]

What else have you tried?

Kill the boss again?

[short axle]

ill try to do that

[blissful echo]

on act 3 cruel what would be the best venom draught to pick for warrior titan ?

[scenic salmon]

#2┃new-player-in-campaign-help message

[short axle]

ffs

honestly i appreciate the help

i find it impossible for me to spam either here or in global to find someone having the exact same quest at that time in order to continue

[devout prairie]

why is my dog no active in demon form ?

[craggy gyro]

What is that marker? i cant interact with it, its In the room after killing Azarian

[gilded bluff]

do multiple cast on x supports share the same energy pool

[woven saddle]

chaos res is the best thing by far for every character it isn't even close

[vagrant tinsel]

there should have been something u pick up and put on the boddy

[blissful echo]

ok thanks

[rancid nova]

How do I get some sensible damage as a poison bow user? I deal just a fraction of damage compared to a warrior of my level.

[woven saddle]

literally if you did not pick 10% chaos resist there then your character is bricked and you have to reroll

[blissful echo]

ye i picked it up just wish u could change those sort of things as its a pain

[craggy gyro]

The only thing I got was the tears

I’ll just leave it be

[chrome rapids]

Tried using an orb of chance on a utility belt and got the message 'Failed to apply item: Item cannot increase in Rarity'

Any ideas?

[clever sapphire]

Guys I got a ore of transmutation that can turn an item to magic? Should I use it on my first weapon? I'm in the tutorial part

Or do I save it?

[sage oasis]

Mana leech is only for melee or work with spells?

[vagrant tinsel]

if it says physical it's from anything that does physical but u have leach in skill tree where it's from everything

[queen sandal]

is there a ballpark level where ppl start to switch from stacking attack to stacking crit? not sure when it becomes worth it in the campaign

[sage oasis]

so if i got mana leech in tree is for all my skils?

[green sierra]

i dont understand what this means am i supposed to equip something else to activate this|?

[vagrant tinsel]

yea but leach regens over 4s or something like that

[abstract agate]

guys... I lost all my spirit, idk how to get it back, everything is the same?

I'm playing as a witch with minions

[sage oasis]

yeah but im a acolyte im trying to cook something with this awful choice i made

i have instant mana leech

[limpid olive]

Why do so many guides say to take "Mind Over Matter" When theres so much damage youre constantly taking... youre literally never with mana which ends up killing you more than it saves you by using mana before health

[sage oasis]

so if i got that pasive on three 10% of mana leech is 10% of my skill damage?

[vagrant tinsel]

ye just not any dot dmg

[fallen ibex]

is picking mana regen veil the best option for all builds ? or is there a reason to pick any of the other 2

[vagrant tinsel]

but some mobs in game are resiliant to it

[sage oasis]

Thank u

[brave flare]

there're so many moms in this game

[vagrant tinsel]

???

[boreal kite]

yes its a trigger skill, so it'll need a skill that can be trigger slotted to be usable

[brave flare]

mom

mind over matter

[vagrant tinsel]

lmao

[green sierra]

yaya i spoke to soon i just figured it lmfao i just thought it had to be one that requires more spirit

[craggy gyro]

King of the myst boss help? My monk is struggling BAD

[past rain]

i just bugged the hell out of the forge lava guy. he kept doing the walk when he got out of the lava but the whole time no lava cubes were coming out

just shot him in the face until he died while he was walking

[fervent bison]

does temporal chains work with conductivity

Feels like it should but both icons aren’t popping up

[past rain]

unless you get a pasive node you can only do once curse at a time

[sacred willow]

Does armor break benefit the chaos damage over time debuffs in the occult skill section? Does it make sense to add poison and armor break on poison on Essence drain? Or am I wasting suport slots?

[past rain]

but there's a passive node right under the big electric one on top that lets you do two curses at once

[fervent bison]

Ahhh ok

Good looks

[boreal kite]

do you still need help?

[craggy gyro]

Plssss

Smoked him on my ranger but monk is failing

[boreal kite]

my ign is butterybow

[craggy gyro]

Tyyyy

[boreal kite]

👍

[onyx hemlock]

just started playing and i picked merc

[slim comet]

Can someone help i’m at the boss for the first ascendancy

[teal nymph]

are the 3 charms good enough to cap my resistances?
Image

[boreal kite]

ign is butterybow if you still need help

[pallid horizon]

how do I go to a hideout I just unlocked?

[stark lynx]

talk to alva

[drowsy marsh]

why i dont see other player on my ranger but on my sorceres i see everything

[boreal kite]

click the waypoint, on the right its the blue icon

[stark lynx]

if it works like poe1, the public party is based on the act

could be there are no pubs open in current act

[wooden quail]

does damage overflow on energy shields or would it be gated?
say you have 10 hp, 1 ES and took 2 damage, what would the result be?

[past rain]

can you wear multiple of the same rune at once or will it basically brick the item

[novel rampart]

Yo, where's the Machinarium entrance? I combed this whole map three times.

[zealous osprey]

Multiple works

Why brick?

[rugged tangle]

yes you can stack runes on gear with multiple sockets, just cant change them to my knowledge once socketed

[zealous osprey]

As in, what's your thought process here

[stark lynx]

should overflow

[zealous osprey]

Behind Chimera

[past rain]

ok i just ask because i'm hovering a glove with a rune and when i hover it's red

[novel rampart]

There's nohing there.

[zealous osprey]

Entrance is behind that arena only though

100% certain

Maybe more XD

[novel rampart]

Chimera is right here at my feet.

[zealous osprey]

Nope

This guy looks like toxic bloom

Not chimera

[novel rampart]

...

[zealous osprey]

[boreal kite]

thats not the chimera

[zealous osprey]

Chimera is the flying ice, fire, poison spitting thingy majig

[novel rampart]

Okay. The entrance didn't show up on my map even though I had explored it.

Thanks. I found it.

[zealous osprey]

Noice mate

[novel rampart]

Here, for the record.

[snow moss]

Can gloves get a + phys dmg roll? Once i put that specific mod on the trade site it doesn't find anything

[calm urchin]

whats the soft cap for armour %

[hot quiver]

can someone help me understand the Conduction Support Gem? it says "Supported skills have 100% more chance to Shock" i cant shock anyone with it. is there a way to see Shock Chance?

[scenic salmon]

You are likely writing it wrong

[novel rampart]

Probably 90% hard cap, but it depends on what hits you.

[snow moss]

is that not it?

[gilded harbor]

Should appear if u get closer

[boreal kite]

its the adds to physical damage to attacks one

[scenic salmon]

The mod is different in rings as it has to be global physical to attacks

[snow moss]

Oh alright thanks, im new so it's kinda confusing at first

[ancient rock]

how can i trade ? i have sent 30 requests for an item using website and got no message back

[wooden quail]

does roll give you iframes?

[twin hill]

Should I wait with this until I get the one that makes me take dmg as mana before life?

[scenic salmon]

@snow moss https://youtu.be/1ByO0C1JiUM?si=7bHD09l7z-e1bB1V
Also on general trading tricks https://youtu.be/7tjAx18ZINE?si=vw5O7mvhpJKzR2Fu

[ancient rock]

thank you

[amber oriole]

Okay, am I dumb? How do you use Skeletal Arsonist active ability?

[median hatch]

guys server down ?

[vivid scaffold]

doubtful

[twin hill]

I have only been taking INT as witch, should I take some strenght and such as well from those 5 choose whiich you want

[amber oriole]

Okay, I am dumb. You get the Skeletal Arsoninst ability on your toolbar. You just have to add it

[rugged tangle]

depends on skills/build, you likely wont need much strength though.... you can always respec the tree later if you need strength or get some on gear

[twin hill]

Yea I was thinking like support gem wise

[sudden zealot]

does lightning rod scale with more arrows?

[wooden quail]

anyone?
differing answers online

[rugged tangle]

most supports dont require much strength at all, my lvl75 has like 30 strength and havent found a support yet that needs me to have more...... main skills are generally what you need to watch as the requirements go up with lvl of gem

[twin hill]

I'm early in act 2 so I prob get enough in the end

[drowsy torrent]

Geniune question - What are the benefits of being melee when range can also build armor/evasion/energy shield etc?

[tribal anvil]

herald of ice or ghost dance? alraedy have herald of thunder

[split vessel]

does mana leach work, if my spell converts all phys dmg to ele dmg?

[true radish]

hi, is warcry shockwave count as hit?

[rugged tangle]

depends on class, each class generally has easier access to different types of damage mitigation.... all CAN do any of them but some do it better basically

[drowsy torrent]

if I understand this correctly melee should have more cons than range being having to tank hits while range can shoot from afar and kite and be tanky at the same time?

[cold mica]

is demange recuped as life good?

[primal hollow]

anyone else experiencing issue where a map suddendly crashes and after logging in back all the loots you picked up are gone? I was running a forge earlier and even had 3 exalt then the map just crashed and all my loots are gone except the scrolls

[half ingot]

Is herald of plague unnecessary since pathfinder gets basically the same from his passive tree?

[hybrid star]

the other way around I would say

[rugged tangle]

depends on the build, melee doesnt really have to tank much if built around evasion.... melee takes somewhat more skill to avoid bad situations though.... ranged can be somewhat easier but usually need to be able to maintain distance which isnt always easy depending on the content

[half ingot]

@hybrid star Well if you want to extra poison (#4) you need to take the spread passive (#3) so it's on unavoidable on route whereas HoP costs 30 spirit and a skillslot

For other classes that use poison I see the use case but I suppose for pathfinder not so much

[fading adder]

Does increasing the quality of items make the item stronger or what?

[half ingot]

Yes

That's what it says when you hover over the quality tag

[hot fox]

For staffs it gives gem quality, armour more armour stats and weapons more Phys damage

[rugged tangle]

on gear it increases its base stats.... armor,evasion,ES etc.

[frank sonnet]

It adds to the armour, es, evasion, or damage. On items with skills like sceptres, it passes the quality to the skill

[fading adder]

What about for wands ?

And focus

[frank sonnet]

Wands have skills, it gives it to the skill. Focuses have stats that increase.

[fading adder]

Alright thanks I thought the the quality thing is useless

[hot fox]

And the higher the value the more you get in return from quality

[raw geyser]

what level or how far into the ACT 2 is the ascendancy spec selection?

[hot fox]

So low level items quality is whatever

[half ingot]

Beating balbala

[hot fox]

Traitors passage unlocks trial

[shadow orchid]

beating balbala gives an item that opens a level 22 area

[rugged tangle]

traitors passage, beat balbala then you have access to it

[frank sonnet]

Beating it is hard though and it's a good idea to overlevel it, iirc I did it at level 35

[raw geyser]

thank you 🙂

[half ingot]

I had no issues with sekhema but I'm not playing a melee class

Chaos trial however...

[raw geyser]

so in order to get the spec I need to beat the trial?

[frank sonnet]

I think now they fixed the dot issue it's probably a lot easier

[rugged tangle]

I didnt either but I just hate that the 3rd ascendancy is 3 floors of that crap.... not a fan of the mechanic

[frank sonnet]

Yes

[raw geyser]

should I look up which spec is better for my class or I can go with whatever I like? I didnt play POE1 so I dont know how good they are with balancing these things

[half ingot]

Whatever you like buddy

[raw geyser]

I like this answer thank you 😛 😄

[half ingot]

You can always respec

[frank sonnet]

It is annoying that the runs take so long. I thought the first boss was made with fewer mechanics because it takes longer to get an attempt on him, but they forgot that with the other trial bosses lol

[raw geyser]

even the ascendancy ? I thought its one time choice

[rugged tangle]

you can use a guide for reference if you know what kind of build your doing but you can read through the skills in each before picking..... all can be good if built around them

[blissful furnace]

what happens if you die in a map

[half ingot]

This is always the correct answer, there is no point playing the "right build" when it's not fun for you

[hot fox]

It's EA things will change a lot in the next months not over Christmas but after that

[rugged tangle]

yep, 1 floor is.... tolerable.... multiple floors is just a time sink and it just makes me not want to bother lol

[frank sonnet]

The game isn't super well balanced right now tbh, it's early access, 2 weeks in, and half the gems aren't even in yet. But it's close enough and you can change gems very easily

[twin hill]

This is a weird one

[frank sonnet]

Seems straightforward to me

[faint oar]

Are there any totem/one button builds for poe 2?

[frank sonnet]

50% rarity is dope btw, really powerful

[rugged tangle]

good for a low life build

[twin hill]

Nah just a weird gimmick

I dunno how I can use it since I got life regen I think

[frank sonnet]

Totem yes, warrior has attack totems. Spell totems not in the game yet. One button, not so much

I don't know why people keep asking about 1 button builds. "Can I have a boring-ass game please?"

[rugged tangle]

really unless you're running a low life build its not worth using, certain builds have it so your always on "low life" so its effect would be constant making it very good for such builds

[faint oar]

to learn and then go more advanced. Its me first time playing

[frank sonnet]

Just go infernalist and reserve all your life 😄

[raw geyser]

btw if I am Ranger...do I max out dexterity and only put stats to allow me to wear my armor of need?

[twin hill]

I am infernalist

[placid pond]

Does it make sense to increase your bleeding chance when enemies are already bleeding?

[frank sonnet]

Attributes don't give you much really. They let you equip items and gems, and they give a small stat bonus (Dex gives accuracy). You will need a lot of Dex for your gems, bows, etc, once you level up so yes you want mostly dex

[rugged tangle]

if your happy with the proc rate of your bleed then no, if you think it needs a boost to frequency then yes lol

[zealous osprey]

Pary 1 done, part 2 - Reserve all your life

[frank sonnet]

Not really, if you're going bleed you already want a high chance to bleed

[zealous osprey]

Depends on build

As in, if you wanna go stuff like Acrobatics then you'll have to go pure dex evasion for the most part

[raw geyser]

I rly want to go bow build 😄

I like bows 😄 .... hAnZo mAiN

[zealous osprey]

I'm going pure dex except for stats for gems

Even armour is pure evasion

And a bow build XD

Deleting everything atm

0 phases on bosses unless forced by story

[placid pond]

@frank sonnet@rugged tangle I already have enough, but I wondered if inflicting one bleed after another could open the wounds more

[raw geyser]

also like the pathfinder spec with the concoctions

[rugged tangle]

alot of stat decisions are based off build... so depends on the type of gear your running such as evasion=dex, armor=strenght, ES=int.... then theres passives that scale based on stats so you'll want to stack whatever attribute for those as well.... as well as skill attribute requirements needing more of certain stats the higher the skill lvl

[zealous osprey]

I went deadeye XD

[frank sonnet]

Only the largest bleed you apply on the enemy does damage, so if you're applying multiple bleeds you're basically fishing for a big one

[zealous osprey]

But again, all ascendancies have their pros and cons

[twin hill]

When can I do that?

[zealous osprey]

So play what you feel you'll like

[snow cliff]

Hey can anyone explain why are some number in blue other in white text regardless of item rarity?

[raw geyser]

I saw deadeye has something which negates the accuracy stat need or something

[zealous osprey]

Ascendancies

[placid pond]

ok ! 🙂

[frank sonnet]

It was a joke anyway, don't reserve all your life lol

[zealous osprey]

I think so, didn't check deeply since I'm rushing though acts (it's an alt)

[smoky shard]

what increases the quality of jewelry? and how do i infuse it with a choice of category of what the quality affects?

[frank sonnet]

This just got a bunch of buffs too 🙂

[zealous osprey]

Choice of catalyst yeah

[twin hill]

So it's not good, I'm going with the energy shield = mana = life

[frank sonnet]

Catalysts

[fluid heart]

what's the name of the orb giving a gem slot to a skill?

[zealous osprey]

Jeweller

[fluid heart]

thank you

[smoky shard]

thanks, what do you use to increase it?

[zealous osprey]

Catalysts increase quality

Different types

Some increase attributes, some res, some other stuff

[smoky shard]

oh so , the first one chooses the type, and then you keep using them to raise it further?

[frank sonnet]

You just use more catalysts of the same type yeah

[smoky shard]

thank you

[zealous osprey]

If you use a different it replaces wuality

Quallity*
So you start from scratch

[smoky shard]

oh okay so its dynamic and not a locked in choice

but it wipes okay

[frank sonnet]

Yeah

[smoky shard]

thanks 😄

[zealous osprey]

[half ingot]

Deadeye is the more straightforward hit and crit dps, usually with lightning for added damage. Pathfinder plays more into the poison and status effects, DoT thing.

[wooden quail]

does dodge rolling give you iframes?

[zealous osprey]

I don't think so

[frank sonnet]

Yes

[wooden quail]

differing answers online

i asked like 30 minutes earlier xD

[zealous osprey]

Yeah XD

[frank sonnet]

It's pretty easy to test lol

[wooden quail]

with the correct spelling.

[half ingot]

Just don't get hit

[zealous osprey]

It's a confusing element

[frank sonnet]

You have iframes in the first part when you're moving fast

[half ingot]

[frank sonnet]

In the second part when you're moving slow, no iframes

[zealous osprey]

Le warrior enters the chat

[frank sonnet]

So actually a lot of the time it's better to walk if you don't need the burst of speed or the iframes

[zealous osprey]

Eyeframes though, LMFAO

[wooden quail]

:(

look at my message 30 mins earlier

no edit

[wooden quail]

can you disable auto targetting? can't find it in settings

[craggy ember]

Hey I’m currently stuck on the Quests (Cruel) : „Ascent to Power“ and „The Trail of Curruption“

They want me to travel to the Traitors Passage but I Alr went there they also want me to use the Horn of the Vastiri but I can’t use them because they don’t let me travel to the sandstorm because of the traitors passage thing

Can anyone can help?

[zealous osprey]

If it's cruel acts, ignore... Bug

[half ingot]

I'm waiting for a warrior build that fullfils the "stop hitting yourself" play style. Like the thorndamage and fire aoe unique but with ascendency passives

[craggy ember]

I can’t ignore … because I can not progress

[hollow gale]

hey all, my game always disconnected when entering new map. is there any fix for that? i'm using steam btw

[zealous osprey]

It's a Act 2 and Act 3 thing, the extra won't be there on full release

Currently they haven't patched the quests showing up again in cruel acts

Cuz, it's not supposed to be there

[twin hill]

Do I like just use it on the skeeltal arsonist? Is that how it works. It's not something I should wait on using right?

[craggy ember]

YEA but I can’t go to act 3 in cruel

Neither to the endgame

[zealous osprey]

Check what raising quality does

Press alt on gem

[zealous osprey]

Hein, this isn't supposed to affect that ability

[twin hill]

Doesnt it increase stats?

[craggy ember]

But it is

[zealous osprey]

Can you send SS of quests?

And also inform where you're at rn

[rugged tangle]

its different for each skill, some give different stats than others with more quality

[zealous osprey]

Different gems behave differently on raising quality

[lusty hinge]

No, at least base, it does what the quality % bonus it has on a gem visible with Alt. For arsonists it increases the max health % dmg of a command skill (blow up low hp minion)

[vocal cave]

hello, im new, and playing merc. Dumb question, but can enemies technically "evade" grenades?

like i know there's accuracy rating, evasion etc that factors when i use the crossbow
are grenades affected by this

[twin hill]

But should I save it or would it fine to use it

[zealous osprey]

Ah, trail of corruption is the main quest you need to complete

You should have a horn in your inventory?

[craggy ember]

Exactly but i cant use the horn

[zealous osprey]

Green quest item

[zealous osprey]

We're you in a party earlier?

[quiet falcon]

Guys act 3 is too hard

I’m crying

[rugged tangle]

it doesnt let you use at front of "ship" while in the camp?

[half ingot]

Did you walk to the front of the caravan?

[zealous osprey]

If not, go past asala to the northmost tip and use the horn there... You'll see a quest marker

[lusty hinge]

Well if you find some very good bonus for you on skills you can upgrade it (for example some gems have lower reservation coat of spirit), some stats may be useless to your build

[nova olive]

i got a buug i thing , i ended the story but in act 1 i still have that quest lol how to fix?

[craggy ember]

Ys

[half ingot]

It's a bug, doesn't affect anything. You can ignore

[zealous osprey]

You're currently in their instance, and the quest state isn't the same

Leave party and reload the area

[zealous osprey]

Instance of Caravan

[twin hill]

I didn't see what it increases, how do I check that?

[lusty hinge]

Hold alt

[twin hill]

I don't see anything specific

[nova olive]

thank you

[proven turret]

I have CI so my HP is a shield, but what does it mean when it becomes pink? Is it poison? Does that do anything with CI?

[frank sonnet]

It says at the bottom of the gem tooltips if you hold alt

[craggy ember]

Still wont work

[frank sonnet]

It will be some debuff - look in the top left

[twin hill]

Nothing changes, I just see those .... light up

[zealous osprey]

Might have to give it some time or keep reloading
But since you were in a party, it's 100% instance quest state mismatch

I had a buddy who I was carrying face the same issue earlier

[frank sonnet]

Additional Effects From Quality:
Deals additional Fire Damage equal to (0–4)% of Minion's maximum Life

[craggy ember]

God damn

Will it work if someone else will go there and I tp to him?

[twin hill]

Oh there

[proven turret]

Ah yeah it is poison; that's Chaos damage and is fully mitigated by CI yeah?

[zealous osprey]

If quest state is same, then yes

[ebon turret]

how viable is a dual wield totem warrior?

[zealous osprey]

As in they too need to use the horn

[frank sonnet]

Correct

[proven turret]

Ty!

[frank sonnet]

Iirc you are also immune to bleed because a hit has to damage life to cause bleeding

[twin hill]

Should I use the gem, or would it be better to get a better one before using, since this one is only up to 20%

[mortal wadi]

How we get the third and forth ascendancy points? I got the quest from act 2 cruel, killed the venon oldman but couldnt progride. The caravan dont show me the pin to move to trial map

[frank sonnet]

The cruel quests do not give points

[craggy ember]

Also the Horn Item says that i need to travel to the sandstorm BUT the sandstorm is greyed out and i cant tp to there :I

[frank sonnet]

Send the caravan there

[mortal wadi]

So I need to be at a lvl 60+ to drop the right coin and do the trial again?

[craggy ember]

Alr is

[zealous osprey]

Area needs to be 60+

Loot depends on mob levels, not yours

And yes

[craggy ember]

And the nothing to travel

[craggy jetty]

what do these mean?

[frank sonnet]

Go to the bow and use the horn

[zealous osprey]

Keep going past desert map and asala

[craggy ember]

OH MY GODNESS IM AM DUMB AF 😂😂😂

[frank sonnet]

Resistances, this mob is taking extra damage from fire and slightly less damage from physical and cold iirc

[zealous osprey]

Yes you are XD
Got it?

[craggy ember]

I forgot that I need to got to the front of that thing

😭😭😭😭😭

[zealous osprey]

Problem solved, nice

[craggy jetty]

thanks

[zealous osprey]

GGs mate

[craggy ember]

No one talks about this right? XD

[frank sonnet]

People make this mistake a lot lol don't sweat it

[zealous osprey]

I mean I was saying this only, go to the top past asala and desert map

But you got it now mate

[ebon turret]

how fun is totem dual wield warrior?

[zealous osprey]

Looks fun enough ig, I think ziz was using it

[frank sonnet]

That was Ziz first build yeah, but Ziz makes anything look easy

[ebon turret]

well time to play the drums on mobs then lol

[frank sonnet]

He farmed the beetle for 18 hours or something

[zealous osprey]

I mean, streaming is life for him

So I can't even call him a no lifer

[candid mason]

When I hover over this new armor I found, there is a circular hole in the middle, what does this mean? It looks like some kind of slot

[zealous osprey]

Rune slot

[ebon turret]

Rune slot for runes of different stats

[zealous osprey]

Either slot a rune or soul into it

[candid mason]

okay okay ty

[craggy ember]

It would have been nice if the quest said: „Go to the front of the caravan and use the horn of…“

[zealous osprey]

They might tweak the finer details based on feedback by the time for full release

But yeah, lot of people got caught up in this

[craggy ember]

I hope because it’s actually super confusing 😂

[zealous osprey]

I mean they already have this near the end of Act 2

Where it says walk down the ramp midway of the caravan or something

So fingers crossed

[craggy ember]

I hope 🙏🏻

[frank sonnet]

the NPCs do say this, but who listens to the NPCs

[craggy ember]

Make sence

[mortal wadi]

And what floor 2/3 means? I need to do it twice with coin 45+ and 3 times with coin 60+? Or is another floor after finish the first one?

[dry wigeon]

Can someone help me beat jamanra normal campaign please. My sorc is too squishy to solo him 😦

[zealous osprey]

2x and 3x

One floor = 8 rooms

With last room being boss

Each floor has different boss

And all boons + afflictions are carried over to next floor

[split vessel]

help pls 😦 does mana leach works if my skill converts 100% of phys damage to elemental damage???

[placid mulch]

guys what killed me??? i have CI, so immunte to chaos
full ES....and died...

[marsh oar]

How tf do I dodge doryani's edm concert attack 😭

[brisk lantern]

No

[split vessel]

ty

[brisk lantern]

Check mods on mana flask, it's usually that

[placid mulch]

nope :(
and also i only died in this zone. with CI and without CI, so i guessed its poision dmg and thats why took CI. But same result - dead instantly for weird reason. Its like hags have some weird op attacks? dunno

[ebon turret]

how do you get 3 totems up at the same time

[ebon turret]

hags can drown you and one shot you

[placid mulch]

o_O so fast? and doesnt matter how much defense and es i have?

how is this ok?

[cursive bluff]

They are too much

[fair arch]

Are the passive bonuses from the skill tree to damage additive or multiplicitive?

[ebon turret]

you will like most of my character names

[cursive bluff]

I hate those hags it's like 3seconds and a slow

[placid mulch]

i mean i cank them and all other mobs but i die just because...? so unfair

[cursive bluff]

Yeah it's a one shot regardless after like 3 seconds

[tight heath]

how much you guys think?

[cursive bluff]

Not really the channel for showing these though unless you're asking for help

[fair arch]

Cause I just picked up 20% boost to attack damage and it feels like its alot more than just an added 20% to my current 200%+ damage... like its multiplying the final equation instead of just being added on to damage bonuses I already have?

[lusty hinge]

We don't think, we price check on trade website

[sick mortar]

its saying ive used 3 weapon set points, how do i find where this is as it shouldnt have been done ?

[fair arch]

When it is "increased" it is additive. When it is "more" , it is multiplicative.

[fair arch]

Thank you!

[nova spruce]

How do I know if something is worth something ? Since I just saw that inflation went from 1e to 1div for most items ... Like this thing, do I list it ?

[neon crown]

I wouldn’t bother

[nova spruce]

What would I want to list ? Wands with mana/energyshield/spelldmg, gear with mana/energyshield ?

[lusty hinge]

Price check on trade, with time amd experience you kinda get a feel when smth is rather expensive by looking at the stats and their tiers or affix slots

[weak aurora]

good stats are high res, ES, hp and mana

[nova spruce]

Thanks ! I'll keep that in mind for gear

[drifting stone]

magic find can also be nice

[fading rampart]

hey yall any idea on how to get rid of the "speak to doryani" quest? i literally talked to him in every location even killed him again in the black chambers

[weak aurora]

search on market and see what stats are selling expesnsive then you have a clue

[frank sonnet]

It's the end of act 6 by the ziggurat I think

[neon crown]

Yea just items with high rolls, if you hold alt, to the right of the stat you will see how good the roll is, like T3/4/5 etc. the higher the better

[next jay]

I have a titan build while leveling (lvl 27 ATM) and put a lot of specs into stun buildup. Now my problem is, that I stun mobs very frequently but that much that I can't use bone shatter anymore, cause I don't hit the exact stun meter. Anyone else experience this?

So it feels like I'm over stunning the mobs

[lusty hinge]

Complete a random map in refuge

Or don't, sometimes it's just there because unfinished/bugged

[nova spruce]

I see the tier of the rolls ?

like my current wand, when I press info I see this, how do I check the tier ? I can clearly see that one spell damage is higher than the other, but how to see if it's on the "can sell" list ?

[placid pond]

hello, I play with my friend who plays magician and I am a warrior, there was a period where he did more damage than me, and it seemed logical to me, however, now, it is me who does it more and not just a little, my dps is 3 times higher than his.
However, I don't know how to advise him since I'm discovering the game just like him. In addition to me, my damage seems to depend on the base damage of my weapon + skills + talents but his weapon (the wand) has no base damage, so it's as if he had one less multiplier, strange right? Do you have any advice for him?

[lusty hinge]

Upgrade the gear

[hallow kelp]

hey i want to just ask what's the diff between projectile speed and attack speed on ranged characters

[ebon turret]

oh come on now what do i do with this

[placid mulch]

so silly, ye :( its themhttps://youtu.be/AhQABFOO9zY

[neon crown]

It’s cut off on the screenshot but to the right of the mods, is T then a number..
