go to the currency exchange in game (available act 1 cruel onwards), and you can see for yourself

or use the bulk exchange section of the poe trade website

[craggy gyro]

last i check ~116

or 117

[trim bough]

Thanks, i tried at the market first but it shows 1 to 1 - not yet familiar with the filters thx

[haughty niche]

this is why i tell them to do it themself

cause if you get it wrong and they trade for that amount, then they get scammed

[craggy gyro]

good idea

[grim nacelle]

Can any one help me beat cruel act 2 boss I’ll give you 5 exalted ords,

[haughty niche]

oh, yeah something is definitely wrong with the trade site for currency atm. Either something broke or a clan is pricefixing it somehow

like there should be a lot more than 1 page of results before you get people bullshitting prices like this

(I am using bulk item exchange on the site)

[craggy gyro]

ive only used the currency npc, to trade orbs. was that fine

using the sugg. market price it showes

[haughty niche]

it varies, sometimes you get better deals with trade, sometimes you get better deals with market

the few offers that are reasonable on the exchange before it becomes 1:1 trades are all around 120-122

[craggy gyro]

ooh ill check it out too, ty

[lapis loom]

hey guys, how can i go to sekhemas trial in cruel?
When i TP there, its still level 22 zone

[haughty niche]

if you are referring to the quest, ignore it its not supposed to appear

[lapis loom]

ah, okay, thanks

[haughty niche]

otherwise, yeah. Trials of the sekhima depends on the coin you use to enter. Higher lvl coins will open higher lvl instances

so the lobby is always lvl 22

[lapis loom]

also is this normal, that coin from quest djinn balbala on cruel doesnt give points?

[haughty niche]

ye

[lapis loom]

thx

Hello can anyone help me beat the act 2 boss on normal keep firing when he’s one shot

[craggy gyro]

Dammit this is my 15th time dying to the snake lady at the ziggaraut.

[storm patio]

do I hve to reunseal the door for trialmaster if I fail?

[wary juniper]

This was happening in a very specific version and was fixed. I'm sorry it happened but it happens.

[nimble fjord]

Any titan pros out there? I was wondering, if I put a brutality gem in my hammer of the gods(+35%phys, no ele dmg), and I use infernal cry, that adds 25% dmg as fire damage, will that be nullified by brutality or is infernal cry damage "another instance" of damage not counted by brutality?

[viscid willow]

oh shit the guy himself!! that's good to hear, ill give it another run

[real gust]

my map says "6 monsters remain" yet i can't find them and i have uncovered the entire map. Does anyone know what i can do here?

[wary juniper]

Glad to hear that, if you want to report bugs or suggest features, our discord is very active.

[runic acorn]

can 3rd ascendancy be done @ lvl 20 (by getting carried)?

[tight forum]

hey guys im pretty new to poe 2 and i have a infernal hellhound build, and im thinking of switching to a demon form mage, is it worth resetting my skill tree for it?

[granite mountain]

can that map be completed? there's a map i cant complete due to that, and many people reported that

[real gust]

right i googled it and it seems to be a bug with the oasis map which i am having that issue in

[haughty niche]

I believe so yes

[sacred mica]

Should I socket my runes into my weapons Im still early game level 28 and i heard its permanent

[dusky burrow]

runes are pretty common (and cheap) later on

[granite mountain]

if multi people go through the story together, how's the permanent upgrade being shared?

[dusky burrow]

stuff like iron rune can be a substantial dps boost

[sacred mica]

i have many iron runes should i just socket them into the rare weapon i just got, i just didnt know if its worth it since im still in act 2 and i might swtich weapons soon

[cyan meteor]

dont worry about that, by the time you would wanna change your socketed rune you would have already upgraded your weapon

[dusky burrow]

i can't speak definitively, but if you have plenty to go around, i don't see the point of not using them.

[cyan meteor]

when you get to endgame and gear upgrades happen a lot less frequently u wanna choose carefully

but not while levelling

[sacred mica]

Im a bit confused, should ijust keep investing and upgrading my weapon, or do i search for new better weapon drops

[dusky burrow]

why cant you do both

there's only so much you can do to upgrade a weapon

[cyan meteor]

dont invest too heavily, save exalted orbs in my opinion

[dusky burrow]

socket & quality, slam if it's really good

[cyan meteor]

what part of the campaign are you up to?

[sacred mica]

I just traded 2 of my low level spirit gems for 8 exalted orbs was that worth it?

[dusky burrow]

sounds good

[sacred mica]

I think im around mid act 2

[cyan meteor]

yes very very much

[manic harness]

Hello can anyone help me beat the act 2 boss on normal keep firing when he’s one shot names lvl slayer

[cyan meteor]

only invest into weapons for now if you really struggle with killing stuff

if your doing fine theres no need

keep looking for upgrades

[sacred mica]

I just socketed iron rune, i have another slot left in my hammer what else should i put?

[dusky burrow]

[viscid willow]

i can in like 10 mins, add me @daythieves

[craggy gyro]

I don’t know how you’re supposed to beat this damn boss. She just eats your health with poison and then fills the map with unavoidable damage

I’ll be stuck on act 3 for all eternity especially since no good crossbows ever drop

[inland sentinel]

Viper I assume?

IMO only the poison tipped spears which fire all at once are a problem

[craggy gyro]

Can’t stand her. Have never wanted to punch my monitor so hard

[inland sentinel]

But I just prepare to flask instantly

The ones that fire in a pattern are pretty telegraphed tho

[craggy gyro]

I can avoid those. It’s her levitated map spanning and her guard spears

[inland sentinel]

Yeah when she goes invulnerable

Those are also telegraphed and give you a few seconds to dodge roll

[lavish fossil]

holy crap yes

[west gale]

can anyone help with the trails of chaos

[inland sentinel]

#2┃looking-for-group

[sacred mica]

what do i use exalted orbs for? exactly is it the universal main trading currency

[inland sentinel]

Stop using this channel for parties

[craggy gyro]

I just think I need to add more physical damage or something

[inland sentinel]

You want to ideally use it to trade or craft on rares

[sacred mica]

what things should i prioritize trading, armor and gear?

[inland sentinel]

Exalts and divines are the premium trading currency

I honestly don’t think crafting is all that worth it

By the time you get a few dozen exalts, you’re just going to use them to buy quality upgrades

[haughty niche]

Ye crafting certainly a MUCH weaker option.

Weapon makes the largest difference

[lavish fossil]

I got 7 level 12-15 skill gems 4 support gems and like 5 high level spirit gems for one exalted orb idk how but I did

[inland sentinel]

I’m not in a position to recommend crafting outside of gambling for the sake of gambling.

[small heath]

I have tons of items I'd like to sell but I'm having a difficult time determine their value. Does anyone have any tips or resources i could use to help me put a value on these items?

[inland sentinel]

So we don’t have official price checkers

[haughty niche]

Price high, lower over time until offers

[inland sentinel]

And even the ones that do have issues because there are big problems with the fluctuating market

[haughty niche]

Look for similar items on trade

Unfortunately the biggest thing is just playing a lot of builds and learning what stat combos people want

It comes with time

[small heath]

Ok thx guys

[inland sentinel]

Understanding the value and meta research

Even some veterans aren’t all that good at pricing

[haughty niche]

Atm high rarity + 3 solid stats csn sell on basically any gear slot

People on thst rarity train

Getting 100 rarity is an insanely noticeable difference so i totally understand why

[graceful saddle]

How do I get support gems? I spent an hour farming and I only got 1

[glad grove]

Quite a few main and optional campaign missions will give you them as reward.

[leaden shore]

how to know if I have completed everything to get +2 passive bonuses?

is there any easy way

[vapid jacinth]

stop crying

[tall axle]

which will be best? for monk

[glad grove]

Not really yet.
You can see in your skill tree after act 3 cruel and check if you have 24 weapon set points.

[tall axle]

poison?

[glad grove]

Nothing build defining. Anti stun is my favourite if it is available to you.

[inner river]

The only one really worth using is the Stone Charm for Stun.

[glad grove]

Stop violating server rules.

[tall axle]

i dont hjave it

here

freeze, poison, bleeding, ignite and shock charm i can choose

[inner river]

Then get the poison one

[tall axle]

ok

[inner river]

auto charges are the best for charms and for Flasks

[onyx locust]

anyone met a "unique map" on atlas? any clue what's that abt?

[glad grove]

Its just special. The unique part about that untainted paradise is the increased xp gain.

[onyx locust]

meh, was hoping for "you get a guaranteed headhunter belt running it bro, you're so lucky!"

[haughty niche]

I ran that and got like 1 whole lvl from mid-80s

[glad grove]

Unique maps were more prevalent in poe1 endgame.
And just like with unique items they have unique features and arent just automatically better than other stuff.

[onyx locust]

wow it has unseen npcs and shit 😄

[polar rampart]

i need help with jamanra the abomination my user is GoonMercenary

[whole palm]

Do the shops stop increasing in item level after lvl60?

[onyx locust]

looked like an elephant from LOTR

map dropped nothing tho - felt sad

maybe i ended up on GM island or smthn

[queen juniper]

do you guys have any idea on how to xp fast ?

[onyx locust]

run maps, the higher the tier the better the xp

[copper maple]

So do I have to go out of my way to utilize the quest item: "Sacrificial Heart" or does it happen on the main path?

[queen juniper]

how does tier work ?

[onyx locust]

a waystone has tier level next to it

[queen juniper]

im lvl 19 rn, i dont think i can run higher tier :(

[onyx locust]

starting from 1 and going up to 15

you may get 16s too by VAAL juicing your tier 15

[queen juniper]

mhh got it

thanks :)

[whole palm]

Don’t worry bout xp right now you’ll jsut lvl up

[queen juniper]

im trying but im just stuck in act 2 rn, feel like i do no dmg, cant find good gears

[oak galleon]

wheres the traait explanation for something like this? can't find it on the wiki

[uncut wharf]

why are normal sapphire rings so popular what are people doing with them

[whole palm]

What’s your class?

[queen juniper]

monk

[whole palm]

Sorry I can’t help

[queen juniper]

no worries :))

[glad grove]

Reading your first screenshot helps.

[glad grove]

Using chance orbs to try and hit a very expensive unique ring.

[sacred mica]

If i use fire infusion support skill on my hammer but already have a hammer does lightning damage will it get cancelled how does that work

[whole palm]

What should I be using my chance orbs on?

[glad grove]

It will decrease the amount of lightning damage dealt while adding fire damage. Not entirely eradicate either damage type

[glad grove]

See the message i responded too

[sacred mica]

so should i do bleed instead of fire infusion then

[whole palm]

Is that the only thing

?

[glad grove]

From my knowledge the highest value thing you can chance atm, yeah

[uncut wharf]

the polcirklin ring is only around 20 ex so as orbs of chance are 6 ex with a very low chance of hitting how is it profitable?

[supple moss]

anyone need help with bosses

[glad grove]

Bleed doesnt help with lightning damage either.

[flint wind]

You sure it's just 20ex? Could swear it was more eypensive

[uncut wharf]

yeah bought one a few hours ago

[craggy gyro]

I’m looking at a build and I might need at least 100 div. I’ve only just reached endgame but generally what tier maps should I be able to farm that much?

[flint wind]

That will be a long farm and too get there you will buy lots of smaller upgrades before you can buy the big ticket items

First goal:

75% all res
More life and defences
More damage
And : around 100% item raritx

[glad grove]

Dream fragments is what you are trying to hit

@uncut wharf

[wind sequoia]

can you use 2 of the same relics in ascendancy trials?

[uncut wharf]

ah

[craggy gyro]

Oh ok noted. Thanks for the steps

[uncut wharf]

oh wow thats a massive payoff

[flint wind]

Normally build guides should have alternative budget gear and you slowly get there

My advice: focus on the mapping quest (do X map tier 10 times) and get all your atlas points.

During that using waystones like breach may add some good currency

[glad grove]

Also, everything post campaign is a #2┃after-acts-help topic.

[vernal smelt]

What ring is it?

[glad grove]

See above

[whole palm]

How are you guys getting max resistance?

[flint wind]

Btw my 2 pennies for chance orbs

Either sell them and take the guaranteed money

Or gamble on the big ticket items like headhunter and astramentis

[glad grove]

And dream fragments

[flint wind]

Like reaching 75% or increasing that cap?

[whole palm]

Yea

[vernal smelt]

Thats the ring name thats all I wanted lolm

[vernal smelt]

What makes it so good?

[whole palm]

Reaching 75 mb😂

[fresh mulch]

is this weapon good? im lvl 12 and made this item on like lvl 8 or something

[flint wind]

Increasing the cap normally only specific builds do. Didn't know any of them yet but they exist

Reaching 75% you do from your gear items. Resistance is therefore a very important stat (besides life)

[flint wind]

For lol 12 quite nice will carry you for a while

[fresh mulch]

:D

[whole palm]

So my rng sucks

[sinful ivy]

Hey how resistances works in poe2 i have kne ring in which i have 45% lighting resistances but when i check mu character it shows me only 12% how?

[flint wind]

You start with negative resistance? I think every 3 acts It gets lowered

[flint wind]

Just pick up all the rares and Id them that's the solo game 🙂

Hitting cap in Poe 2 during campaign is VERY difficult and I didn't do it

I recommend focussing on life and DAMAGE

[void jacinth]

is there a visual cue if leech is working or do I just have to eyeball my health? does it have the same effect when under flask?

[whole palm]

I’m t3 maps

[glad grove]

#2┃after-acts-help

[whole palm]

lol I forgot I was in this section

Time to move on

[flint wind]

Then it's time too use your exalts and trade a bit too hit res

[whole palm]

Ok thx

[whole palm]

How much does res matter

Would I not get one shot by certain attacks anymore🤣

[flint wind]

If a attack would deal 100 damage and you have 0% Res

You take 100 damage if you have 75% Res you only take 25 damage that's only a fourth of the original

If you have 50% Res you take 50 damage. That's double the damage you would take as if you where are 75% Res.

So the jump from 50% too 75% doubles your life against that element. So very relevant

[whole palm]

Wow

[supple moss]

anyone need help with a boss

[whole palm]

I have 41 fire 0 cold 19 lightning 10 chaos that’s pretty bad rii😂

[sleek fjord]

whats under global defences?

[flint wind]

What I always do is buy 1 ex items that give as much Res and life as it can

[whole palm]

Where’s that at

[proper lion]

Looking for help Jamanra

[sleek fjord]

morior invictus

[whole palm]

What should my res be at for where I am my offense is pretty good everything dies in one tap basically

[whole palm]

?

[flint wind]

For mapping even T1: 75%

[whole palm]

Waaaa rlly🤣

Yea I’m doing bad then

[whole palm]

Should I be looking for two resistance elements per armor piece?

[flint wind]

It's normal.

As i said I always do a shopping tour when reaching maps.

The total value matters so just as much as you can and once you have 1 at 75% stop getting that one

Trade side has ways too sort for that

[steady pasture]

Which is the best leveling class for campaign sorc sucked hard?

[vale vault]

hey when I'm in act 3, how do I get back to town? the portal takes me to the gateway thing in the past

i mean besides waypoints

[supple moss]

take the portal

[mental needle]

Go through the gate

[supple moss]

^^

[vale vault]

oh you can go through it? jeez lol

[mental needle]

What setup are you using on your sorc?

[mental needle]

Yeah it's annoying but that's how lol

[flint wind]

I liked monk.

But all classes will struggle if the gear is bad 🙂

[supple moss]

dont feel bad first playthrough i got confused also

[steady pasture]

I optimaze my gear i trade a lot but dmg sucked my friend plays monk with bad gear and solo all bosses

[flint wind]

Yeah monk is dope

[whole palm]

@flint wind should I be buying maxed out rare armor?

[steady pasture]

I play Spark Stormweaver with firewall

[flint wind]

All your gear should be rare or uniques your build needs

[whole palm]

I’m saying should it be rare when buying from trading ?

[steady pasture]

Yes im in act 3 rn i have 2,2k shield but dps said 158 for spark

[mental needle]

Sorc levelling is good besides some act 2 difficulty spikes, if you're truly optimizing your setup on spark you should be good

2.2k shield in act 3 normal is crazy

How many ES nodes did you take?

[steady pasture]

Energe shield?

[mental needle]

Yes

On the passive tree

[steady pasture]

A lot xD

[fresh mulch]

how do i dodge the red effect STUN from boss in freythorn?

[steady pasture]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/stormweaver-league-starter-sanctum?weaponSet=set1&widgets-state=eyJmN2Q4MjEwMi03ZTc3LTRhNDQtYWQyNC0zM2I2N2U4YWU3YmYiOnsiZmlsdGVycyI6eyJhY3RpdmVWYXJpYW50SWQiOiI0NWIwYmYxMC1mNmIyLTQ4MTQtOTMyMC0xODViNmI5NzkwNTUifSwidHlwZW5hbWUiOiJOZ2ZEb2N1bWVudENtV2lkZ2V0Q29udGVudFZhcmlhbnRzVjEifX0
I use exact this build early version

[mental needle]

You'd rather get your defenses from life affixes early on so you can actually spec damage on the tree in most cases

[mental needle]

When he debuffs you hover over it in top left

He wants you to stop moving or keep moving on order to not get ensnared

[flint wind]

Well if the one with the best resistance for 1 ex is magic that sounds quite solid too me

But I very very very strongly doubt that

[oak galleon]

where do you get your 300 points ?

[steady pasture]

Im lvl 41 and idk what i can do anymore

[oak galleon]

or activate them

[flint wind]

A bit more context pls

[oak galleon]

dont you get 300 coins for buying the ea version?

for stash tabs

[noble lynx]

someone ask devs to let us use 2 of the same support gems in a build?

[runic terrace]

Play gemling legionaire then

[noble lynx]

what who? ill ook into that

[flint wind]

Ahhh yes

Well that's a very good question

Right now I say don't use them yet

Currency tab kinda worth it

Map tab and other tabs seem not as good.

So normal advice is: 1 currency tab 1(or more) PREMIUM stash tabs (can also be premium upgrades)

Stay away from tabs like uniques or flasks

[runic terrace]

Ascendancy for merc

[mental needle]

Are you following the "campaign" portion of the guide?

[noble lynx]

oh.. i sorc

[craggy gyro]

Whoever created the viper needs to go drive their car off a cliff

[oak galleon]

I asked where do i activate/get them, they arent in my account lol

[mental needle]

You'll notice it's much more damage oriented because they don't have archmage to rely upon

[flint wind]

Ahhdid you buy the pack or did someone else gave you the code?

[mental needle]

They should just be there assuming you bought the pack yourself rather than just get the code

[oak galleon]

someone else gave me a code

[flint wind]

Haha

[mental needle]

They get the points then

[flint wind]

Well they presumably got the code for free

[oak galleon]

It's a code I activated on the side though

[flint wind]

So neither of them bought the pack

[oak galleon]

site*

[fresh mulch]

i even know what is killing me

[mental needle]

Well whoever bought it got the points, haha

[steady pasture]

I use the early game board idk maybe this is the problem do i change to the campaign passive tree?

[flint wind]

The pack gives 300 coins and the code

You only got the code 🙂

[mental needle]

You have to kill the totems he summons

[oak galleon]

thats dumb

[flint wind]

Why?

[mental needle]

Yes, absolutely

[fresh mulch]

damn my eyes aint for that i didnt even saw totems or anything

[oak galleon]

because my buddy gifted me a game he doesn't play?

[mental needle]

Ignore the gear, it's a bunch of uniques but otherwise it's decent

[oak galleon]

so the giftee doesn't just get the points? lol

[flint wind]

Squints eyes idk I think you should talk with him for more context

Maybe he played
Spend over 480€ on it

Got the code for free

But doesn't play anymore so just gave the code away

[steady pasture]

Ok its expensive but i try when dmg then sucks i switch too monk xD

[mental needle]

King and the zone he's in is pretty hard for the level you face him, I usually come back after clearing ogham farm/village and getting a level 5 skill gem myself, but since you're there it's prob best to finish the job

[winter briar]

Hi, am I missing something or, is there no button to continue with any of these rooms in this trial?

[fresh mulch]

i will

i thought i can stat check him but i cant

and i actually need to stand instead of laying down like monkey

i need to turn on my gaming carpet :P

[flint wind]

There are platforms with a pillar with a colour stone in it

These activate it

They look like trap plattforms

[winter briar]

ah, thanks! Hadnt come across that yet

[flint wind]

Yeah I think only floor that has that for some reason

[mental needle]

They are trap platforms in most (all?) cases Get off of them asap

[whole palm]

@flint wind trading is broken 🤣🤣

It’s too powerful

[sacred mica]

i got a unique item! but i just identified it at a low level did i fuck myself

[whole palm]

I don’t think it matters

The stats never change I think

[zealous osprey]

Item drop depends on mob level

Not the level it's identified at

[sacred mica]

how do i level it up? does it become useless later if i get better boots

[whole palm]

I could be wrong but I think uniques at all levels are the same

[sacred mica]

omg

so good

i just got unique boots

trampletoe trimmed greaves

[whole palm]

Someone fact check me

[flint wind]

Jep Design idea of Poe 2 was: people find rares and exalt slam them during the campaign

Reality: just buy a 1 ex rare from trade it will always be better then whatever you can find/slam

This changes in endgame though

[sacred mica]

i think you are right, the armor is 157 even though i am level 28

[flint wind]

Doesn't matter for uniques

[whole palm]

Hoe does it change at endgame?

[sacred mica]

is that a op unique? trampletoe trimmed greaves

[whole palm]

Cause I was using my exalts campaign and now I’m endgame using exalts to trade because of you

🤣

[flint wind]

You will get great rare items dropped and can sell them for a few exalts

But if you exalt slam them they could become much better and sell for way more

Takes time and experience too know what is good or bad.

[whole palm]

Is it mainly jsut based on tier of the substats?

And the type

[flint wind]

It looks cool. Not sure how far 2 meters is.

But doubt it's worth much but double check the price

[sacred mica]

its only worth 1 exalted orb :/ gg

[whole palm]

Also are uniques suppose to drop so frequently in endgame im getting like one every 2 maps or 2 every 1 map

[flint wind]

Well mainly the stat itself.

The best tier thorns is worse then worst tier mana.

Right now on equipment: life mana Res rarity mana regen and damage are the big ticket mods

Weapons are more complicated

[flint wind]

If you have rarity yes it's broken

But yeah you will get more uniques but a lot of uniques suck in Poe 2 hope they buff a lot of them

[whole palm]

I thought mana was trash I had some good items

[flint wind]

Well people struggle with mana in this game 🙂 it was trash in Poe 1 though

[whole palm]

You know when’s the next stash tab sale?

Now that I’m here I see that I may need them

🤣

[fresh mulch]

ez :D

[mental needle]

Nice, reward from him is really good at the least

[flint wind]

In general for new players I say vendor more items.

All items you keep should be currency (money) and items you want too sell

Maybe some charms and uncut gems

I think stash tab sell is every 2 weeks during weekend?

[fresh mulch]

i got choice for 3 charms

and spirit skull

[sacred mica]

should i rush and go for giants blood for warrior in path ignore the side trees for now?

[thorny karma]

What kind of venom should i pick as Ranger class, mana regain?

[craggy gyro]

OMG…..I Finally Beat Her…..

Hmmm y'all making the game sound good I'm tempted to buy it now ,should I wait for free game or buy now? Is it good like Diablo game?

Jamanra has been putting me in timeout for over an hour. Any help accepted.

I been lurking and reading what y'all saying lol

[mental needle]

I got no clue what you like brother

[flint wind]

You are buying for 30$ a game that will be free
And right now is in the worst state it will ever be

[mental needle]

Can only say I like it, but it's rough around the edges, definitely in beta

[craggy gyro]

I should wait then,I'll let em cook

[flint wind]

But I do like it and campaign is quite fun and challanging

Ah yes also only half of the campaign

[steady pasture]

I have changed now i have doubled my dmg wow but i have 1k shield now, hope i kill bosses like a monk yet

[craggy gyro]

I saw someone saying that it's way better than Diablo and like Diablo 2

That's what called my attention the most

[mental needle]

Monk is a beast, so your single target won't match the power of the bell

but it should feel better

make sure you're getting life and resists on gear, not just ES. ES early in the game is just OK

[scarlet cypress]

hi when is f2p???

[trim turret]

When it leaves early access in 6-12 months.

[scarlet cypress]

wow!

[solemn flame]

Happy new year
I finished act 3 and now starting act 1 cruel
Maps are really boring… too big
Is cruel mode funnier?
don t know if to finish cruel mode and reach endgame or start new pg and finish normal 3 acts again
Any advice?

[mental needle]

cruel is the same thing with bigger numbers

[fresh mulch]

how do i use this spirit ice armor spell?

[trim turret]

Cruel mode is a placeholder for the other three acts which aren't in yet.

[mental needle]

right click it in your skill screen to activate it

[trim turret]

Socket it and right click the icon.

[keen zephyr]

so why did you do it

[solemn flame]

the point is that i can't fast clear quests because of green items from acts buff

it's so boring with every map

look like a labyrhint

[fresh mulch]

just like other spells am i right? if so i dont see the icon for it

[trim turret]

Dunno what we can do for you.

[flint wind]

I agree with that. But it is different games.

I can see people liking D2 more

[trim turret]

In the skill screen (G) not the hotbar.

[rustic venture]

why does jamanra seppuku?

[flint wind]

Because I love it. Game was very fun had a great 100 hours with it and lots of feedback I send in that may be used too improve it.

I can experience it with my friends and you guys in this discord

Also a friend gave me the key for free lol

[mental needle]

Worst state it will ever be in is still more fun than most games to me, and I love poe1 so I entrusted GGG with my moneys

[trim turret]

Plus the $30 gets us 300 store points, so really the early access key is just a bonus.

[flint wind]

Well you normally would never buy just 300 points

I say the key costs 30$ and you get 300 points as bonus

[trim turret]

Right click the icon above the gem.

[fresh mulch]

aaa

[trim turret]

Who says?

[lusty hinge]

Let's be real you would

[flint wind]

Me? Never lol NEVER

I either buy a supporter pack or no coins at all

[lusty hinge]

First blood pack alone is 200coins iirc

[steel topaz]

does the ancient vows quest just bug out because ive ran the zone 4 times and the other half of it doesnt drop

[flint wind]

I played Poe 1 for over a year before I bought my first coins.

Why? Because the mtx in the supporter packs where not good enough for my taste

Blood pack is a ok deal though

Not sure if it's enough for currency and map tab though

If it's not bad deal

[cerulean portal]

does this just mean when its not on cooldown? Its an instant cast ability it recommends it on, not a continuous thing

[mental needle]

Which one is taht

[keen zephyr]

is there a lot of co op?

[flint wind]

If you want too yes

If not then no. You can play it completely single.

Or every map with other players

[lean pilot]

It's for spirit skills, which are always active

[mental needle]

as much as you want, co-op in the endgame is unideal though

[flint wind]

Hell no coop is dope

[cerulean portal]

but its got a cooldown though?

[flint wind]

Have you seen empyrean videos?

[steel topaz]

the one with two hal,ves of the relic

[lean pilot]

Yeah but it's also a buff technically, that gives you the skill

[flint wind]

It's active as long as it reserves spirit

[mental needle]

No one in the new player campaign help channel is going to be donkeying for 800% IIR

if you're duoing or trioing maps, watching your friend clear the map while you're a corpse sucks hard

[cerulean portal]

ah i see thanks

[zenith skiff]

literally havent found a single piece of loot worth using on my build in 3+ hours of campaigning today

this is so fucking stupid

[mental needle]

Look at the tags, it has "persistent" and "buff" which is what the herbalism support specified.

So even with cd or anything it will work

the tags tell all

[cerulean portal]

i see, thanks. It just seemed confusing with the nature of the ability that's all

[flint wind]

I did coop with 2 others.
1 of them had the best build but loot in total was WAY more.

Also more fun lol using voice chat etc

[nimble sluice]

campaigning is rather bad for useful loot ngl

[mental needle]

Understandable question, I was just saying for future reference

[nimble sluice]

it's a bunch of being greedy for life and res on armour and any sort of damage you can smack on the weapon

[zenith skiff]

dude im very annoyed, i love the game but im getting to a point as a new player where idk what i will do when i need stronger stuff

still using level 10 items that are carrying me

[nimble sluice]

are you willing to trade?

there are some rather cheap trades you can do

early items are super cheap

[zenith skiff]

yea but i have no matts worht trading

beginning of act 3 still

[nimble sluice]

you have any orbs at all?

[zenith skiff]

im still melting stuff cuz of lucky crafts

[nimble sluice]

people offer items for orbs of aug or orbs of trans

or regals

[zenith skiff]

ill see what my stash looks like after this map

[nimble sluice]

even a 1ex weapon can last you a long while

[zenith skiff]

i need some stuff with int and spirit on it mainly for shock ranger deadeye

[nimble sluice]

in end game, nearly every single of my early purchases were 1ex each

[trim bough]

Another question from the realms of no-knowledge. When I upgrade a spell, it shows the incrase of mana cost - lets say that my Flash grenade costs 31 mana, after upgrade it should go to 35 mana. Why does it cost me over 100 mp to cast it? 😄

[nimble sluice]

only later down the road I had to really invest

[flint wind]

Supports also increase the cost more

[nimble sluice]

support gems can apply cost multipliers

[mental needle]

look at the support gems. Some of them have mana multipliers

[trim bough]

shieeet

[onyx locust]

how do you get all res to socket in gear whats it called

[trim bough]

obviously 😄 Thanks

[cerulean portal]

Sorry for another question, but for some reason it doesn't let me cast it when i add that support skill, even though i have the spirit reservation for it, i have 10 left over

[mental needle]

https://poe2db.tw/us/The_Trial_of_Chaos#TheTrialofChaosItem Citaqualotl

[mental needle]

I believe herbalism is 15 extra spirit

[cerulean portal]

it uses 20, but after adding it i have 10 left over

[mental needle]

Huh...

Can you show me your skill screen?

[cerulean portal]

temporal rift is the one in question

[mental needle]

What is that green support on it?

ingenuity?

[cerulean portal]

yeah

[mental needle]

and you have 20 spirit before activating?

[cerulean portal]

yeah i have 30/30

[mental needle]

oh, so it's costing 20?

[cerulean portal]

im not really sure how spirit works to be honest. It says it has a reservation of 20

and using the skill takes 20 out of my spirit bar

leaving me with a permanent 10/30

but i still cant cast it

and i have no other buffs active

[manic whale]

Can someone help me with a boss ?

Act 1

[mental needle]

so you activate temporal rift by right clicking it but you can't put it on your skill bar?

[noble lynx]

what area has the most of the idols that you can sell to dude man?

[hoary parcel]

err, reading stuff through reddit and even here, are trade tools really that sketchy? exile exchange 2 for example

apologies if this is against T&C, please let me know

[cerulean portal]

i have it on f yeah, i can put it on my skill bar, the button just does nothing when the support gem is on it

but it works as normal otherwise

[mental needle]

Ok, so I'm looking at the forums and there are bug reports saying that temporal rift basically doubles the spirit cost of any supports on it.

[cerulean portal]

Oh okay, that would make sense, cheers

[mental needle]

lots of them

so seems a common issue

[cerulean portal]

how do i actually go about getting more spirit? I cant find it anywhere on the skill tree

[mental needle]

it's an affix on chests/amulets

[flint wind]

Not against ToS they are fine

We have 2 famous ones that are used by tons of people including streamers

Can't live without it

[mental needle]

and you get 70 more from the campaign

you will get 30 in act 3 from the azak bog

[flint wind]

You get it as quest reward and from grear

Or your ascendency

[hoary parcel]

exile exchange 2 and was it sidekick?

[nimble sluice]

yeah

[cerulean portal]

ah i see

[mental needle]

it's also on sceptres, but I assume you're not going to use those

[flint wind]

I use the one from overwolf

[zenith skiff]

is it worth it to use a vaal orb on an early game item or nah

i got a kind of strong bow

[urban ermine]

Happy new year guys

[zenith skiff]

i want to vaal when i find a potential replacement

[flint wind]

Eh

Sounds fun too me

[hoary parcel]

isn't that the one that received a lot of hate because of sketchy stuff?

[flint wind]

People do not like overwolf

But yeah probably

[solemn flame]

my skills are lvl 12, what to do with all the lvl 4-5-6-7 and others skill gem i have?

[mental needle]

yeah if you have something new to slot in you might as well vaal

[solemn flame]

just destroy them?

[mental needle]

vaal orbs are plentiful later

can do a bit of gamba for fun

you don't need them unless you plan on playing alts

[flint wind]

Throw them away

[mental needle]

I'd keep a few around though

[flint wind]

Well "plentiful" you will get more of them

[craggy gyro]

how come i cant use this ??

[mental needle]

clarity costs extra spirit

wait is that clarity?

[manic whale]

Can someone help me with a boss ?

Act 1

[mental needle]

No we're all too weak #2┃looking-for-group

[craggy gyro]

oh yea the precision does

[mental needle]

all of the spirit support gems cost extra

[flint wind]

Not all of them

Some cost extra spirit

[mental needle]

huh?

[rugged lake]

[mental needle]

You can put persistence or something for free, but that's not a spirit/buff specific support gem

[fresh mulch]

find lute
bring back lute
try to listen to song
no sound :C

[mental needle]

Yeah I tried too on my first playthrough has to be bugged

they posted one of them on youtube though if you want

[fresh mulch]

scam :C

unplayable

[mental needle]

https://youtu.be/yDHhqAP_Duk the song for ur enjoyment

[fresh mulch]

i just found that but thx

second one works i think

[lusty hinge]

there's 1 song working and it's default bg music of that town, the other 2 aren't playing anything and the town goes silent lol

[polar zenith]

q: i am in cruel - my friend is in normal - how do i join his timeline so that we can do the chaos trial together?

[toxic maple]

Press J invite him to your party, click on his blue icon on the top left corner, you can do the stuff with him and join his tps back to home

[lusty hinge]

you should be able to just tp to him

[toxic maple]

also your dps will be reduced to 90% so most of the dps dealer will be your friend

[maiden summit]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[toxic maple]

you should clear all the mobs for little lot and exp

[lusty hinge]

the blue swirly thing is tp to players location

[fresh mulch]

anyway she aint as good as jaskier :P 2/10 game :P

[polar zenith]

hmm ok let me try

thnk you friends

[ashen sinew]

it it worth it to map with a friend and we just slpit the map in half? or 4 people and split it in quarters? how much is the rarity buff

[maiden summit]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[flint wind]

I just go for Rares League mechanics and the boss of course if it exists

[toxic maple]

The problem at the beginning is the experience you're gaining at lv 30-35 you shoud look for any piece of equipment to chance meanwhile be checking items and comparing to your recent equipment do not be exigent

also, keep upgrading habilities that you're gonna be using and use also support gems .

[flint wind]

I would run together as mobs are stronger and split loot afterwards in shared stash.

But that could work.

The person that kills the mob applies his rarity. So the highest rarity guy should have culling gear

Normal mobs you have infinite off: as long as you have waystones

Rares and league mechanics give the best loot. These are limited per map

[toxic maple]

most of the drop comes for the person who have dealt most of the dps to the mob.

[cursive beacon]

So I got Giant's Blood but I have way too little strength to even equip a two handed right now. How do I get a lot of strength? What items give me more strength?

[flint wind]

That is incorrect
This may apply too who can pick up the loot though

[toxic maple]

I think everything gives attributes in equipment.

[ashen sinew]

some league emchanics are locked behind single player right?

[lusty hinge]

gear, some passive tree nodes provide increased str or % str

[flint wind]

No? You have an example?

[lusty hinge]

and of course attribute nodes

[ashen sinew]

like, ritual's can only be done by the host map

map host*

[flint wind]

? Everyone can join the ritual

Maybe only the host can start it

[ionic meadow]

is this for every floor or only this one?

[ashen sinew]

i meant for rewards

[flint wind]

Ah yeah probably

I say still gets shared between all players

[toxic maple]

It is the same, i am doing groups and i am not dealing same dps and my guy explorer deadeye, i take 2 items and he's taking 6-7 items

[ashen sinew]

yeah, friend died once and nobody else could get rewards at the time

[maiden summit]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[flint wind]

The items that drop are dependent on the rarity of the killer

Who can pick up which items is calculated differently

[toxic maple]

Follow any guide path that can help you to see what is important for your build and what satisfy you.

i htought they said they wanted multiplayer to be more of a thing in poe 2 LUL

[flint wind]

Looks bugged.

Exit it and check if it's completed on atlas

[flint wind]

Multiplayer is dope? Wdym

[maiden summit]

One message removed from a suspended account.

[ashen sinew]

on certain maps, but some maps it's rough

[toxic maple]

Tbh, for me feels like the guy who deals more dps is the one that gets most of the loot it also applied when i killed some mobs, i got like most of the loot. But also, I am not very expert, i am a new player learning this game for the 1st time after 2 weeks.

[flint wind]

Shrugs I did it for a few hours and had tons of fun and insane amount of loot

[lusty hinge]

every floor you'll lose all water

not good at all

[flint wind]

Yes that may be correct

But I am talking about the total loot that drops

[toxic maple]

It shares that's true. Even me dealing 100% of the dps to the mob my companier is also getting loot. But this is not really matter when there is build at the moment one shotting bosses like normal mobs.

[maiden summit]

[flint wind]

Damn that sucks

I personally would just run a new map

[toxic maple]

Man i am waiting when they will be realising the dagger class

[lusty hinge]

I wanna choke slam demons as a bear

[toxic maple]

Are you the hunter or the prayer?

[upper heron]

does monk build evasion only or with energy shield or armor?

[toxic maple]

I think my friend is running evasion full on monk

[trim turret]

Depends on your build. Thematically I think its evasion and ES.

[willow fox]

I killed curel bal at lvl 55 but only got a tier 2 token, Do I have to wait to lvl 60 to get a lvl 60 area monter token for it to count or what? lol

[lusty hinge]

you meant 'prey' probably xD

[toxic maple]

Eventually even if you were lv 80 the drop of the maps it's a ton of varieties

question of luck

you can mostly get lowers and also higher than your actual level

[sturdy panther]

Is endgame considered when u beat act 3 or when u do it on cruel difficulty

[willow fox]

ahh ok so i need to just spam kill him got it lol

[toxic maple]

at the end of act 3 cruel

[flint wind]

All 3 possibilities work
Full evasion
Full es
Evasion es

Evasion es is the cheapest option

[lusty hinge]

after 6 acts so 1-3 normal + 1-3 cruel

[toxic maple]

I think after you kill any campain boss once, it cannot respawn but there is the chance to swap map and comeb to the same so you might be restarting the map i had to do maps like 2-5 times the same one on the beginning

[scenic salmon]

Campaign bosses will respawn if you make a new instance

You can farm them if you want

[willow fox]

ty

[willow fox]

ty

[toxic maple]

What i did i just used teleport back to home, swap map and then comeback to the map where i was.

and it restarts the map

somehow

you have to comeback like 2-3 times if you're not missing anything sometimes

[lusty hinge]

you can just ctrl+click the area and create a new instance

[scenic salmon]

Clicking on way points works too!

I do wonder how they do in consoles

[toxic maple]

clicking of waypoints you mean the "usual 4 waypoints you have on every single map or the circle"?

if it's the usual waypoints once oyu discover them and you have the full map discovered it won't work

[swift yacht]

a friend is trying to use the trade site. when he tries to whisper someone its says " invalid query, your account must be in game to use this feature. " they are in game. they play on steam, steam is fully linked to their poe account etc. any ideas?

[toxic maple]

you have usually to go to another map or comeback to the portal to the city

[lusty hinge]

what?

[toxic maple]

maybe he is selling on POE1 version instead of POE2

i did that once

haha

he can be logged with POE1 account

[upper heron]

does % armor/evasion/es increase only effect the item or total armor etc.?

[lusty hinge]

pathofexile.com/trade2

[zenith skiff]

where do i go to enter temple of kopec

[lusty hinge]

you get the idol alva asks and then you put it in the door and it opens up

[trim turret]

Depends on which item it's on.

[zenith skiff]

what door tho

oh nvm i see

my bad

[lusty hinge]

in ziggurat encampment

[royal wharf]

What do mercs usually use their second weapon slot for ? Other than crossbow, that is.

[zenith skiff]

ketzuli is a dumb boss

[rustic venture]

uh i can't log into my character anymore. I get a "Buffer underflow" error everytime

[trim turret]

I have a crossbow that launches an extra grenade and then one that is more direct damage oriented and my skill/weapon points setup accordingly.

But you can use anything as long as you can make it work.

[royal wharf]

Sounds good, thanks.

[night pike]

tryna kill bog witch and my lord she is annoying

[royal wharf]

Also, what do you have for defence? I don't see many ES nodes for merc nearby

[whole palm]

When it comes to amulets and rings what stats am I looking for?

[scenic salmon]

Take your best guess

[trim turret]

Resists, life, armour and evasion gear.

[dense widget]

Is there a date when the next shop sale will be to buy storage pages?

[trim turret]

I have weapon set points I can't allocate outside of the weapon set. Should I just equip weapon set one and keep it equipped?

[visual trail]

Are jeweller's orbs supposed to be really rare? I've gotten only 1 and that was back in act 2. I'm in act 1 in cruel difficulty rn

[haughty niche]

they appear to be very rare yes.

ive only found like 10 in 125 hours between 3 characters

you should get enough by the end of the campaign to have 3 supports on the important skills you need

[visual trail]

that is actually wild lmao

Yeah only found 1 lesser so far

[clear merlin]

Is there a tier above red??

[haughty niche]

if by red you mean brownish/orange unique?

no

And uniques aren't better than rares

they are just unique

[deft flicker]

Can anyone help me understand weapon specialization points?

When they were first explained to me, I thought they were points that you could spend in two places at once, and would be different depending on the weapon set. So like, if you had 5 weapon specialization points, you could put 5 points towards, say, bow attacks for weapon set 1, and put the same five points towards poison for weapon set 2, and then have different builds that do different things depending on which set you're on.

But I tried to do that recently, and it seemed like once I'd spent points on weapon set 1, they were just gone. I couldn't spend the same points differently - all I could do is decide "do I want these points to be on both weapon sets or just one"

Is this right? Or am I missing a UI somewhere? I'd love to have slightly different skill trees for different skills. but if it's just "turn off some nodes when using this skill" that's much less interesting. 😦

Hoping I just missed the UI for re-spending the points or something. Th anks in advance for any help!

[late raft]

In wondering this too. I believe you can use it on one only

So idk if you should eauipe set. One and only put points in 1

[lusty hinge]

each lvl you get a passive point, if you have weapon set points - you can allocate that passive point into either weapon slot 1 or weapon slot 2, so when you change the weapon set - the tree changes

[late raft]

What are these then

What are those 20 points

Is there a way to use those?

[visual ruin]

weapon swap passives

click on one of them, and allocate using passive points u have

u need to have an available passive point to use those

[late raft]

So they're not points just the amount of regular passives that can be allocated to that set

[haughty niche]

ye

you still need a skill point to use them, but you effectively get to "split" the point between two sets if you choose to use them

[late raft]

I see

Thanks

Does Witch benefit from +# to projectile skills? or is that only for rangers and mercenary?

[sleek fjord]

whe4n is sale

[novel rampart]

Is this bugged in cruel?

[halcyon pumice]

anyone have good experience farming "boss kills" for gramble rolls in A2??

[novel rampart]

Same with finding the entrance to the ascension trial quest in cruel?

[nimble sluice]

that should not

[haughty niche]

its bugged in cruel

it shouldn't be a quest

Abandoned Shrine?

huh, didn't know that

I swore it was one but maybe too many quests for me 😵‍💫

[sinful ivy]

I can see some people have lvl 26 skill gem how to go beyond lvl 20?

[visual ruin]

they don't have a lv26 skill gem

they have extra levels to skills on their gear

some gear pieces like weapons, amulet, helmet, quiver can have these

[sinful ivy]

Ohk

[eager basin]

do you use projectile skills? completely unrelated to class

[scarlet magnet]

any class can benefit from +# to projectile skill once the skill you use it on has projectiles

[cunning schooner]

Does critical chance in the passive skill tree affect spell critical chance ? or uses a different critical chance?

[rare cloud]

So I play monk ice strike. Got the polcerkeln ring. But I can't seem to be shattering as quickly as the videos I'm seeing

What am I doing wrong

[scarlet magnet]

if it says increase to spell crit its only spells

it is says only increase crit chance it general

means it applies to everything

[cunning schooner]

Ah, thanks.

[scarlet magnet]

yeah just look out for the wording of stuff

[haughty niche]

spells use their own base crit listed on the gem, increasable as usual via passive points etc

[scarlet magnet]

yeah like bipolar is saying all the ones in the passive tree are increased crit chance not a total base addition to the value

meaning that if you have a spell with base 10% a 20% increase is just 2% more crit chance

[cunning schooner]

Ah, I see.

Thank you ~

[scarlet magnet]

np

[half pumice]

how rare are lesser jeweler orbs and other jeweler orbs. Im lvl 60 but I only have one skill that has a slot of 4 and 1 of 3. anyway to increase odds of drop?

also anyway to get thorns to trigger stun buildup?

[haughty niche]

i found like 10 on a lvl 70, 85, and 50 chars.

and none of the greater ones

[half pumice]

huh okay, is currency exchange working in game? might try that

[haughty niche]

should be

the lesser ones should be relatively cheap

the others... not soo much lol

[half pumice]

o wow they are expensive in the currency exchange lol

the middle ones 4 slots

let me try the 3 ones

[austere geyser]

im a newbie, and had 1 character to lvl 40 something. would liek to change toon, can someone carry me through the campaign please? id like to make a mercenary

[half pumice]

go to the looking for group channel

[weak harness]

no point in doing those bosses and objectives that dont have the little sign right

[half pumice]

worth doing all bosses

some give you extra resistances and extra weapon slots

[weak harness]

those are only the ones with the mark tho no?

the ones in the pic just give random loot dont they?

[feral badge]

how do i place my banner?

[past rain]

i just accidentally flipped a perfect jewellers orb for 1 exalt. forgot to put the number up to 340

[half pumice]

if they are blacked out you have completed them, if they are white skulls then you have yet to do them. if you hover over the skull in the map it will show you what they give you some will give you random loot. i think those 2 do just give random stuff

if it mentions nothing it is just random loot when hovering over it

[lusty hinge]

Read the skill description, you need charges for that first

[feral badge]

i meant binding it to a key. immediately found out i can just click the slot

my bad

[rustic venture]

my stash is full 😦 gotta wait 3 days for stash tab sale

Is recovery the same as regeneration?

regen is a form of recovery

[haughty niche]

it should not

[compact rune]

boo, okay thanks for answering.

how is currency taken from me for the currency exchange? do i need to setup a slot tab for it or is it automatic

[onyx locust]

all

[granite mountain]

thank you!

[vapid violet]

upheaval, innervate, primal armament

[onyx locust]

if i were to take 1 away what would it be

[vapid violet]

either primal armament or upheaval, they have diff uses upheaval make it cover a bigger area cause of the 2 extra waves whereas the other is just a dps increase single target

[onyx locust]

well i have ice strike for single so ill do primal

ty ss

[vagrant anchor]

What's the con of corrupted skill gems?

[vapid violet]

cant add quality to them

which for some skills makes them drastically better or reduce spirit reservation

[vagrant anchor]

Ahhh, I see.

[placid linden]

Doryani fun boss

But damm they beefy

[median eagle]

Im trying to beat viper naputzi the main attack im having issues with is when the statues shoot at you from the side how do you dodge it rolling seems to make you still get hit

[lusty hinge]

There are multiple sequences to that phase, first one is random soldiers attacking, you can just step aside to the opening or dodge roll out, the second one is when they do a poison wave, you can just run at it and dodge right before it hits you and you won't get hit at all

The most annoying part about Napuatzi is how often she bugs out invulnerable or the chaos aoe bombardment phase I'd say

[knotty verge]

Does the games dps take attack speed into account

[haughty niche]

the best strat for spear phase is to hug the wall cause they dont reach all the way to the other side.
The best way to get bugged out and stuck in the wall iss also to hug the wall

[knotty verge]

This I mean

[haughty niche]

somewhat

its REALLY bad for poison.

like it basically doesnt calc poison

[lusty hinge]

Wave covers the entire arena, phase before that - yeah, you can hug the sides since not everyone attacks

[old jetty]

Im currently in the mawdun mines and there were 4 mobs just not dying, they were dying and popping back to life. is this a feature?

[knotty verge]

Im still somewhat reliant on the attack itself for damage because im in early acts

So the dps only going down across the board when i put on a new quiver is info i should at least pay attention to

[near violet]

Did they have "minion" as a tag

[lusty hinge]

People keep saying stuff about these mobs but every single time I met and fought them they were minions that the rare was reviving, so blowing up that rare stopped it

[old jetty]

ye

[blissful stream]

Can someone help me understand str requirements on deadeye? I'm using Lightning arrow, at around 47 str. If i take off an item that gives me 30 str, my skills all disappear? None of my gear or skills say they have any str requirement. I'm confused

[near violet]

Rare monster with "revives minions"

The minions can aggro you without the rare so they can be very far apart

[lusty hinge]

Supports?

[blissful stream]

oh true forgot about that

[old jetty]

thanks

[zealous osprey]

Annoying in Sekhema, kek

[craggy gyro]

is anyone willing to help me understand how the passive skill tree works and how the pathing should be?

[broken flax]

I’m ngl I’m embarrassed to say this but I wasn’t too happy with my build so I respec’d to try a new build and I absolutely bricked myself. I want to respec back to what I was originally because it was just fine, I was just being greedy. I now have absolutely no gold and can barely kill anything where I’m at in campaign.

Any tips on how to fix what I goofed up? lol

[unborn vapor]

can I just skip the treasure of utzaal side quest? The one in molten vault, I already unlocked reforge in the non-cruel part anyway.

[craggy gyro]

Need help with viper boss IGN Draxnter please!!

[zealous osprey]

Yes

No perma buffs

[craggy gyro]

Need help with viper boss IGN Draxnter please!!

[zealous osprey]

I just do em for completion, but they're optional (stuff like vault)

[zealous osprey]

#2┃looking-for-group

[zealous osprey]

I can guide you through a bit, but would need more context

[zealous osprey]

Ask specific doubts, I'll try to answer to the best of my knowledge

[broken flax]

Essentially I just need to figure out the best way to get gold so I can respec and be back to where I was

[zealous osprey]

Best way to get gold, kill stuff and sell loot

No 2 ways about it

But what about your build?

[haughty niche]

i do this like every other league in poe1. always buy gear and then forget to get lvl req

[zealous osprey]

You mentioned issues while respeccing which bricked your build

Might help you adjust some things so you can respec easier by making some progress with this mixed build XD

[broken flax]

Tbh it really boils down to me being too quick to make a change w/o reading everything. Linking the builds will probably explain better than I ever really could lol. One sec

This is the build I was originally doing. After some research I had seen a lot of people say this build isn’t very good for endgame which made me want to switch to something new.

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/935c1e59-4ac0-48b0-9eea-61b7d3f2af59/builds/1064e611-a8cc-4e0c-b62c-1a7164f0f365?weaponSet=set1

This is what I switched to w/o reading everything and I can basically only cast a couple spells before I lose all my mana

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/935c1e59-4ac0-48b0-9eea-61b7d3f2af59?tag-ascendancy=stormweaver&tag-class=sorceress

[zealous osprey]

I'll see how much I can visit links and read stuff, on phone cuz travelling QQ

[tulip zinc]

Getting skill issued by Geonor , guess I’m over leveling any gearing

And

[solemn valve]

Anyone need help with Act bosses lmk,

[broken flax]

I then tried to make this work with most of the skill tree of the end game version and I am just bricked lmao

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/935c1e59-4ac0-48b0-9eea-61b7d3f2af59/builds/1064e611-a8cc-4e0c-b62c-1a7164f0f365?weaponSet=set1

[thick turret]

are mobs harder to kill on party?

[broken flax]

All good. It’s really a lot to take in and I’ve been trying to fix it for a few hours now lol

[undone sleet]

Yes, mobs do scale with party size

[zealous osprey]

This ain't link to a build

[knotty verge]

Is accuracy rating a relevant affix to roll on weapons? I dont think ive seen an enemy meaningfully dodge anything

[broken flax]

If you do end up with some time for some insight, and if you wouldn’t mind, PM me your info because I’m more likely to find it in my PM’s

[final idol]

Hello just want to ask where can I find help my stormweaver got bugged I can’t remove punch on my skill bar, my spirit skills don’t activate, and my the plus ranks on my wand don’t apply to my skills. Playing on ps5 currently on act 3 cruel. Thanks

[undone sleet]

Depends on the type of attack you're using. Area attacks are not evade-able

But if you're using melee or ranged targeted attacks, you will need some amount of accuracy

Accuracy is based on distance to the target as well, so melee needs less than ranged

[zealous osprey]

DM me the links to both builds, and if you can the issue you're facing rn (mana I believe)

[knotty verge]

My main damage is gas cloud so its not really evadable

[zealous osprey]

I'll check it out while travelling

[tulip zinc]

Fart attack

[undone sleet]

Gas cloud is an area attack

[knotty verge]

Yeah so im free to fart cloud and explode them

[tulip zinc]

Where’s the best place to grind gear before the geonor boss fight btw

Just the manor?

[undone sleet]

Check vendors in town as well

[tulip zinc]

Doesn’t that only restock per level? I remember reading that

[solemn valve]

Last call for act boss killing lmk

[tulip zinc]

I would but I’m at work rip

[vapid charm]

hey guys, whats the best way to get "oaksworn" thru gambling?

[royal canopy]

Hello thanks i just joined here. I can not log in now, is it maintenance?

[pseudo adder]

Did anyone encounter this problem? Everytime i went to seepage and woodland map, my latency suddenly went wild

Any other map is stable 30ms, but the moment i step in those 2, my latency went crazy like 100 to 1000 fluctuating nonstop

[royal canopy]

Hello thanks i just joined here. I can not log in now, is it maintenance?

[knotty verge]

Since im going for a chaos centric build with a bow, im only really looking for phys damage prefixes on my bow? Im planning on the majority of my damage to be gas cloud and maybe hexblast since im doing acolyte monk

[foggy birch]

lol

no

[royal canopy]

Thanks. Why i really hard to log in? my gateway is singapore with 50ms latency. But i keep log in and couldn't in

[foggy birch]

maybe ur server is cooked

try a diffrent one

[zealous osprey]

Singapore is cooked yeah, but I can only play SG

[wheat prism]

just retry, it's a bug

[zealous osprey]

Hit login a few times, it'll let you in

[wheat prism]

SG here too and some weird times it just doesn't let u in lol...

[royal canopy]

Thanks guys i relief hearing ur answer. I thought my internet couldn't effort this game . Thank you 🙏🏼 @wheat prism @zealous osprey

[zealous osprey]

SG servers are cooking 7-9 PM my time, so I avoid mapping around then

Very difficult to get stable instances

And playing maps with sinusoidal ping is a pain with 1 death (slightly off topic)

[near violet]

They're chasing you to sekhema balls

[near violet]

SG gang

[zealous osprey]

[rough birch]

If I got o bed and sleep halfway through a campaign map, when I come back I lose progress and trash respawns?

[wheat prism]

just dun disconnect

pause the game

[trim hamlet]

hey does anyone know what the monster level killed most efficient is? I'm lvl 76 so should I aim to be running tiers where there's monster level +1-5 above me? Like I can kill monster's 5-7 lvl's above me but it's slow, but monsters 1-3 above me are much faster. What's most efficent for xp? (sry coming from diablo)

[rough birch]

Before going to bed?

[wheat prism]

yeah dun turn off ur game?

[rigid elk]

hey guys, is the plus # to spirit on gear a 1 to 1 on total spirit gain? Im in Act 3 and have a total of 60 spirit from the quests and bought a chest piece with +52 spirit, which in my mind should take my spirit up to 112, but it only raises to 76... a 16 point gain.

[wheat prism]

i dozed off a few times struggling to force myself to finish the map before going off completely....

[wheat prism]

could the chest piece have spirit and you are replacing it and not gaining the offset?

[rigid elk]

my previous chest piece had zero spirit stats on it... if im understanding your question correctly

[wheat prism]

yeap you are, that was my assumption

the quest increment is flat increment for sure. was it +52 or 52%?

[rigid elk]

+52

[eternal mica]

does playing in a party increase item drop/exp gain?

[rigid elk]

i dont think there are % versions for spirit... at least not on chest pieces afaik

[wheat prism]

yeah not on armor at least

[craggy gyro]

Anyone willing to run me through the whole black chamber? I’m getting my ass handed to me by mobs IGN Draxnter

[wheat prism]

could you have gear pieces invalidated if the replacing chest piece has attributes that your other gears require?

[rigid elk]

not in this case. the only reqs are 63 Dex, which i easly meet on my monk

[zealous osprey]

Dunno exact XP falloffs for PoE 2, but from PoE 1 try to stick within plus-minus 2 levels for best XP

[rigid elk]

ok, so i just pulled another armor out of my chest with a lower +spirit stat of 34 and put it on, and my spirit went up by "1" to 77.... so weird.

[wheat prism]

huh hmmm

or is there some conversion?

[rigid elk]

I dont know if its a bug or not but

60 base spirit + 52 from armor = 76
60 base spirit + 34 from similar armor = 77

[spare sundial]

hi, is there any chance to get greater jeweller's orb in the campaign before the endgame atlas?

[rigid elk]

i had 1 drop in Act3 Cruel

[cursive fractal]

where can i buy ascension 3 ?

[spare sundial]

cool, im halfway through act 3 cruel, hopefully get some aswell. 🙂

[rough birch]

Is there something like an aim assist in the game for some spells?

Like I'm trying to use Unearth as witch on a bunch of corpses to raise my scorpions right

But I swear the game is trying to "correct" me into using it as an aoe nuke on the currently alive enemies instead

[royal wharf]

Do keys carry over to next trial if I don't use it ?

[rigid elk]

if you mean from 1 floor to the next, yes. If you leave, no.

[royal wharf]

Aah, okay. I meant a different trial, not a different floor.

[cedar skiff]

why are uniques so low level?

[lusty hinge]

They mostly added some low level stuff and some endgame options, but not much in the middle and overall there aren't that many uniques. Poe1 has thousands of uniques that they would have to port into poe2 (maybe not all of them buy most)

[median igloo]

I need help killing a boss please

[median igloo]

[median igloo]

[scarlet magnet]

[median igloo]

Awesome thank you!

[scarlet magnet]

chaos is like a whole new experience when you first do it

its super hard if you arent built for the area

[pulsar scroll]

is this the correct Icon for Regal Orb ??

[rough birch]

Bruh, I dc'd while trying to find this thing in Utzaal and now this utzaal in past campaign map is completely reset

[foggy birch]

uhmm yes

looks perfectly fine to me

[flint plume]

Finding that thing isn't very important, if that helps

[unreal ether]

when should i start using armor scraps?

[flint plume]

At their current price I wouldn't before endgame

[fluid heart]

how do I see more details of my character stats?

[foggy birch]

c_

[fluid heart]

there's not a more detailed panel?

[digital kestrel]

bro is smacking the taste out of my mouth

[crisp apex]

hey , new to game or online action RPG here
can you explain, what is stage T15 ?
I don't understand the term

[sleek fjord]

what does potcg mean?

[flint plume]

Not sure what context, but if you're taking about T15 maps, that's an endgame thing you worry about after the campaign.

[flint plume]

Pillar of the Caged God. Unique staff that scales with stats.

[sleek fjord]

anyone have a guide on the best str stacking gemling build?

[river hare]

can anyone help me find molten vault?

[digital kestrel]

any body willing to help ?

[foggy birch]

[flint plume]

#2┃looking-for-group

This is more for questions

[digital kestrel]

oh okay my fault you guys

happy grinding

💜

[flint plume]

Common mistake, I think the channel should be renamed

[brave needle]

The weapons have stuff like 1 to 8 lighting damage, does it means random between 1 to 8 ?

[noble lynx]

why only merc gets to use a second copy of support gems. frustrating

[night pike]

im halfway through act 3 and i still havnt gotten a lvl 2 or 3 support gem, am i doing something wrong?

[toxic wyvern]

Hello guys and Happy new year ! I got a problem with The Bog Witch I killed her like 4 time but she doesnt drop her spirit bonus I dont understand why

[granite mountain]

[upper heron]

[foggy birch]

[craggy gyro]

no one is selling me ritual table

it's sad

[fallen surge]

Anyone know if trading is safe with div items? I’ve heard rumors of trade being the way to get hacked

[spiral tulip]

are attributes nodes considered small nodes for hulking form?

[foggy birch]

cant be bothered

[upper heron]
