[proven vapor]

how does spell echo work with hexblast? it doesn't seem to be doing anything

[granite wren]

Just go to her ?

[rugged kayak]

how or why do they form?

[acoustic comet]

how do i tp to my party?

[opaque stone]

Mobs have a chance to drop them on death. They spawn because of the Corrupted map modifier

[acoustic comet]

im also at the sanctum

[rugged kayak]

AH ok, corrupted. i did one, are they always rare enemeies?

[edgy jacinth]

New player here. What’s the currency exchange. Is that just for PC or is that built in to the game for consoles too.

[opaque stone]

Built in, speak to the Gambler npc in each act once you hit Cruel difficulty

Thats uhh

Finn/Risu/Alva iirc

[edgy jacinth]

Gotcha thank you kind sir

[north holly]

how to get the 5th support gem slot on Poison Concoction ?

[safe lance]

The normal trading itself had a UI like currency exchange in poe1 (no need to interact with players), so it could potentially be a future thing in poe2 as well.

*on console

[cunning olive]

how should i farm for t15s (im poor as hell)(someone donate)

[opaque stone]

Hit level 90

[humble bobcat]

does Titans 50 inc of small passive interract in any way with the jewels socketed in the tree ?

[north holly]

thank you.

[dusky burrow]

real

[scarlet falcon]

can you list items for sale from a guild stash

my brother's account for some reason won't let him buy gold or stashes or points, and trying to help

[silk tide]

does anyone have a spirit gem lvl 9? Not sure if this is the right channel

[foggy birch]

maybe

why

[silk tide]

Sent ya a PM

[modest thicket]

Got one after messaging 228 ppl but it cost 2 @safe lance @dusky burrow @night pike @haughty niche

[foggy birch]

ahahah

[modest thicket]

Figured y’all might want an update lmaooo

[safe lance]

228

[haughty niche]

tip for next time: bottom of trade filter, set minimum price 2 ex, get instant trade

[night pike]

that took way too long

[modest thicket]

Yeahh I was trying to find one for 1 bc I gotta buy the rings too

Question tho

What’s the interaction with the +36 health and 50% converted into shield

Does the health add after or before it converts?

[flint wind]

health should be calcualted first

[haughty niche]

all of your flat health is added together and then converted to ES

[modest thicket]

So it doesn’t really hurt me that much

[dusky burrow]

didnt have to ping that many ppl but ok

[flint wind]

this unique is very forgiving

there is abug right now with CI

CI sets your health too 1 but this unique armor ignores that and uses your "complete health"

[haughty niche]

Conversion in poe2 ignores the %increased of the original stat, but unfortunately they forgot to add %increased life fucking anywhere so that doesn't really matter for Ghostwrithe lol

[modest thicket]

My b lmao

[hallow iron]

does fire exposure and flammability stack? how are they different?

[foggy birch]

pinging entire server 🤣

[safe lance]

Yea the nitpick is prolly corrupted with no sockets but 2 ex is nothing in long run

[modest thicket]

They were helpful lmaoo

[modest thicket]

Yeah I just wanna get the build going and I’ll farm a new set

[oak forge]

I am regretting going melee build ngl

[flint wind]

what build?

[oak forge]

lightning monk'

[flint wind]

what? invoker monk is amazing

i ahd a great campaign with it lol

[oak forge]

So was I until act 3 everything stuns me infinitely

[flint wind]

may be a gear problem
are you Energy shield focused?

[oak forge]

All of my armor keeps having different focuses so it's not really any focus

My rng has been terrible

[flint wind]

ok i did campaign by focusing on life amounbt

trying too get that on every piece

i also didnt really focus evasion/armor/es lol

[oak forge]

I have 889 life and 18% armor with 82 energy shield

7% evasion

[rough kiln]

can you leave path of exile and login later and finish your trial or will the instance reset

[flint wind]

i have no idea if thats good at that point:D
but more life helps with stun resist

and secondarily monk likes evasion and ES

[oak forge]

tbh I haven't gotten any defensive passives

Because I didn't feel like I needed it but now I'm regretting it lol

[flint wind]

the problem mnonk defense passives focus on increasing your Evasion and energy shield you already have

which you dont

[oak forge]

well none of my venders have anything good lol I might be cooked

[dusk forge]

so my 2nd acend coin for my 2nd acend is gone how do i even replace that?

[flint wind]

anpothe roption is alsoa anti stun charm if you have that

[flint wind]

was it a green one? (green text)

[dusk forge]

no

[oak forge]

Majority of the new armor I get wants insanely high stats too

Like I do not have stats in the 70s-90s

[dusk forge]

i got it in the trial of strenght then i went to put it in my trial to start it i lost connection and its gone

[flint wind]

thats third and 4th ascendency

Second ascendency is trial master quest line and has infinity tries

third and fourth are limited and drop

[undone kiln]

Can anyone help me with the trial of chaos please?

[dusk forge]

so what level do i do 2nd trial?

[oak forge]

My highest stat is dexterity at 54 🫠

[flint wind]

is a questline
i thinka ct 3? sekhema?

[undone kiln]

I’m lvl 46 and struggling

[flint wind]

no other way around sekhema was act 2
trialmaster was act 3

[dusk forge]

so sekhema is in act 2 and i did the one for the quest for the 1st acend but my sencond wont be till act 3? thats wierd

[flint wind]

erm third and fourth will be way later

[undone kiln]

Could you help me complete the Trial of Chaos please

[flint wind]

try lfg or ask in global chat #2┃looking-for-group

[undone kiln]

Thanks

[flint wind]

is it in the one ina ct 3? story quest?

[tame saddle]

where to use djin barya? at chaos trial? It still asking for inscribed ulti

[hybrid star]

trial of the Sekhema, act 2 underground

[flint wind]

barya is sekhema trial act 2

[tame saddle]

is this like 2nd ascendency?

[flint wind]

first ascendency is sekhema
second is trialmaster

thirsd and fourth is endgame and you can decide which one too use

[tame saddle]

apparently i did trialmaster first lol

is sekhema cruel?

[tulip jungle]

any tips for how to get through 1st ascendency with mercenary?

[flint wind]

yes but you can do it in act 2 normal
you need too kill the traitor in traitors passage

[twin prairie]

I need help act 1 full

[modest thicket]

Where do I buy jeweler orbs in game?

[tame saddle]

kk will try ty

[hybrid star]

you can do 2nd as Sekhema also, if you have the coin for it

[flint wind]

you dont.
you either get them form the poe trade website

or with alva trade you get once you reach endgame (from other players)
they 4 and 5 th socket are VERY expensive

[modest thicket]

Even like the lowest tier ones?

[kind crest]

Its so awesome that one of the name bosses got 20 times harder just because I have the quest for them...

[flint wind]

the low tier ones are cheap

[modest thicket]

On the trade market?

[flint wind]

everywhere they are quite useless for players after a while

[modest thicket]

So there’s no in game vendor correct?

Someone said the gambling vendor

[flint wind]

not as far as i know
but maybe lol never bothered checking vendors for currency

[haughty niche]

the djinn coins are monster drop only

same for jewlers orbs

There is a guaranteed one in act 3 tho, first area has a chest that drops one once.

[tame saddle]

whats the diff between djinn and balbala barya?

[haughty niche]

https://poe2db.tw/us/Ascendancy_class#Ascendancy

[flint wind]

great link

that website is a livesaver btw

[haughty niche]

Balbala is the name of the djin you rescue. Thats the quest item for the first ascendency. The other 3 ascendency ones are from djinn baryas which drop randomly

[fringe sphinx]

almost 200 hours and my friend is stuck in act 1 still no matter what loot I give nor the lvls I have him farm to get ahead

what else can I do?

[median eagle]

Is this ok going into act 1 Cruel any other ideas? ( acceleration arcane tempo encumbrance glacation )

[flint wind]

well thats impressive

[haughty niche]

at that point you should tell them how to turn on their monitor

[fringe sphinx]

its low key frustrating hes been playing this game for alot longer than me and just still there

[flint wind]

yeah like idk there is a deeper problem here

[fringe sphinx]

keeps dying on monks and warriors

[haughty niche]

warrior is a little rough. Kind of demanding and has a lot of life flask spamming.

[fringe sphinx]

at least 30 charters in

[flint wind]

wait
cant you play together in coop?

[median eagle]

hmm cast speed stacking on frostbolt may be really good though MP demanding

[modest thicket]

These ppl asking for an exalted orb for lesser jeweler gems are on surely on crack right?

[haughty niche]

no

[fringe sphinx]

already have I cant stop him from dying though lol, can bring a horse to ater but cant make it drink kinda thing

[haughty niche]

No one wants to sell anything for less than an ex. Wasted time

[modest thicket]

Some ppl have them listed for aug orb

[haughty niche]

the only people you see selling for less are bots or scammers/pricefixers

[modest thicket]

Damn

[flint wind]

well there is a more complex problem here we cant see in this chat

but my advise is if he still has fun why not

if he doesnt he should stop playing and you 2 find something else too do

[kind crest]

Technically, you can bring a horse to water and make it drink, if you hold its head under water until it drinks enough so it does not drown.

[modest thicket]

Do jeweler orbs start dropping b4 act 3?

[rugged kayak]

Is it a scam if someone is offering to carry from 70 to 90 for 3 div?

per person of course, for a group of 4

[flint wind]

i call it impressive
like how long woudl tghat take? 20hours+?

but yeah he can can jsut take the div and block you afterwards

[rugged kayak]

He claimed T15 for 1.5 hours ish

but maybe im an idiot but for 3 div that seems odd?

[flint wind]

i personally dont see a good reason to ndo this

but if i would take that deal i would say i pay later

[rugged kayak]

prob got taken for 3 thenkl i didnt care about 3 div to test out lmfao

will be a good video for youtube of another scammer anyway haha

[brave scarab]

I'm short like 5dex on my witch to use scattershot, is it bad select attributes in passive tree for the 5 dex? or should I keep with int?

[flint wind]

thats what they are for:D

[brave scarab]

and try to get the 5 dex from gear instead

ok ty

can they be changed?

[haughty niche]

scam

[rugged kayak]

he hasnt kicked me yet, so lol

if it was, why not just kick and ignore lol

[haughty niche]

or at least, very easy to scam

and not worth doing

you are basically just robbing yourself of 90% of the reason people play the game

[rugged kayak]

true, does ggg do anytying to these scammers if you have proof?

[flint wind]

like thats why i say i pay later

[rugged kayak]

prob not, devs for these games they never do

they dont really care

eve online is RIPE with scams

[flint wind]

if its a scam i dont lose my currency
if it isnt i get the stuff i want and then pay

[haughty niche]

YOU are in charge of your currency. If you get scammed thats on you

[rugged kayak]

Oh yeah, but people offering a service, etc. its on them if they lie lol

[haughty niche]

at least, thats how ggg handles it

[flint wind]

there is tft that tries too protect services like this
and make it save from both sides

[haughty niche]

Anything not facilitated directly in the trade window is fair game. If you gave em a div and they kicked you they won't be penalized.

[rugged kayak]

https://i.imgur.com/vHEdK97.png

still shitty tbh, they should police outright scams lol.

[haughty niche]

thats borderline impossible

and costs money

[rugged kayak]

hes waiting on one more, i just dont see the point in keeping someone around afer they pay lmfao. unless you are truley a fucking loser lol

[flint wind]

btw i think we are going past the point of a help chat
this conversation should continue in #2┃general

[haughty niche]

at that point they probably aren't scamming but its still not really punishable if they don't do anything at this point

[rugged kayak]

nah and tbh as lazy as i am

i dont mind taking the risk I fully alreayd left he just pmed me backl

and showed his gear/waystones.

and its only 3 div lmfao

woopy do, im bored enough to see lol

[haughty niche]

if you are soo lazy that you intend to pay for levelling from 70-90, then do you even want to be playing the game at all? Thats like... the MAIN attraction for majority of players is the moment you just hit endgame and start grinding

[rugged kayak]

just seems like hes gonna run these, take what he can and regardless of our level leave then. benefit of the extra players for loot obv lol

[rugged kayak]

im already at that point

[modest thicket]

So basically set my minimum to 2 exalts to buy anything?

[rugged kayak]

the end game is a boring grind once you get to end and do a few repeats, its over. now its all repetative, so im really just burning oil here tbh

hence why i didnt care about 3div lol

annnnnd he kicked me

[haughty niche]

if you want near-instant trades sure. I usually get responses on 1 ex shit within less than a minute or so just messaging through and taking first response

[rugged kayak]

jk lmfao knock on wood haha

[flint wind]

btw we did have lvling services in poe 1

like 6 ways legion stones

so its not a new thing

[modest thicket]

I assume ghostwrithe was an exception bc it’s being used A LOT

[haughty niche]

yeah probably.

[modest thicket]

Gotcha

[boreal wedge]

is grim feast bugged? sometimes it doesnt give ES when picking up the remnants.

[rugged kayak]

74 to 90 in 2 hours? seem correct? lol

idk about that tbh.

although 1 level an hour maybe

maybe 2

[haughty niche]

It doesn't sound correct at all to me, but im very unfamiliar with the endgame's xp rates

In poe1 you could do 70-90 in like 30 minutes with legion carries

[flint wind]

i doubt it lol
mnaybe he has t15 maps with exp gain prepared? then it may be possible

[rugged kayak]

well just based on what I have done so far, and my own t15 on my own, idk either lol, didnt seem worth it to risk the death based on what I got per run, so if u clear fast I suppose./

i ONLY ONE SHOT IN PARTY UP TO LIKE T5 ISH,

oops caps

[flint wind]

tzhe main problem will be the exp share range

you will need too stay all clsoe together
and some of you will be slower then others

[rugged kayak]

idk why he is not posting in the trade chat tho, only in the open party thing

thats the odd part, hes not even advertising, its just an open party lol

titled carry to 90 3 div lol (def a scam then haha)

if they only have 1 person in cus he kicks them, he wont get anyone to join or pay lol

[hybrid star]

trade chat is the place for scams

[rugged kayak]

true,k but not even offering (if you are legit) is just asking for no one to come

its gotta be the 3 of them all scamming to gether, probn why its 3 div lfmaooo

1 for each lmfao

im the sucker hahahahahaha, took a risk knew it just wanted to prove 3 losers lfmao

[stark nebula]

You don’t get anything from freythorn cruel 1 right? Spirit is locked at act 3 big witch?

[jade wadi]

always check tft discord bruh

they have list of scammers

4th accendacy cost only 40 ex not 1 div

[rugged kayak]

tft?

link?

path of exchange?

[jade wadi]

add me

[hybrid star]

the forbidden trove, not sure if I'm allowed to put links here

[rugged kayak]

me?

[jade wadi]

how am i suppose to give link then 💀

[rugged kayak]

pm lol. dont NEED to add, I mean I did, i dont care, just thats why i didtn know if you were asking ME to add you or someeonw else. lol

he startin

[willow fox]

Cruel act 3 which do I pick and why? Also, how can I see what I picked on normal act 3?

[rugged kayak]

we started want me to stream to see if he scams us? haahha

[haughty niche]

discord links get auto-modded.

[haughty niche]

i like the chaos res one

chaos res is stupid to get, and really good

[rugged kayak]

still 2 maps in lol.

[golden condor]

unless they plan to go heavy ES and CI build only later on

but yeah it's what I picked for mine

[rugged kayak]

may as well be a scam, hes clearing so fast, and moving so fast, but not killing enough stuff that we cant really keep up lmfao

so of course me and 1 or 2 of the others die easy lmfao. so BASICALLY a scam, lfmao prob just wanted extra bodies (although why not get people that help lol)

[flint wind]

wow yous till talkign about this

technicly not a scam
thje service was reaching lvl 90
so it should coninue until youa re lvl 90

[lapis stone]

if I use a breach percurser that says 'area contains an additional breach' Does that mean there are two hands to start a breach in the map?

[stable swallow]

lol died on spwan xD nice build

so i have question, so this build is getting damage from levels. and max we can get on quiver is +2. So even with low level +2 we are good to go right?

[hybrid star]

use Widowhail

[stable swallow]

had it from level 1

🙂

using junk other then both wep and chest

[lapis stone]

if I use a breach percurser that says 'area contains an additional breach' Does that mean there are two hands to start a breach in the map?

[hybrid star]

yeah the +2 will scale with Widowhail and the quiver passive

[vapid roost]

I am at viper boss act 3. I feel like I am under gears. Any good places to farm at act3. I play ssf

[night pike]

is poisonous concuction through pathfinder?

[stable swallow]

yes

its op build O_O

[night pike]

rip

[stable swallow]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/poisonous-concoction-pathfinder-build-guide

i just reroll from my level 95 barb

[carmine sable]

does anyone know how to turn off the arrows that show which node I can take?

[full tiger]

yall, i just started playing and ive been stuck on the rust king boss and its really annoying, does anyone wanna help??

[carmine sable]

i.e. these

[eager basin]

I don't even know how you turn them on

[carmine sable]

i dont either, i didnt have them on my first character :D

i think the issue might be that I killed the boss to enter the encampment before finishing the tutorial to take a passive skill tree skill

and now these arrows are just... here

[eager basin]

[half pumice]

hey for the cultist greathammer - how much damage does the splashes deal? and does increasing area of attack increase the range when i click on it it mentions it is an "unsaclable value" but when i add "+40 area" to attack the splash increases in size, is it then talking about the splash damage instead of the area

[timber saddle]

Where do I see critical hit chance?

Cant see it in character Window

[hybrid star]

it's under each skill in the skill gems panel

there's an arrow to open detailed info

[timber saddle]

Oh i see it now ty

[oak forge]

idk if I can beat viper lol

I do very little damage and the window of opportunity to hit her is very short in between 20+ second long attack strings

[lusty hinge]

It only works on strikes, if the strike has it's own aoe - then it will be affected by aoe nodes, if it doesn't - it is unscalable

Boneshatter has a strike tag and does aoe, but armor breaker doesn't have aoe

[half pumice]

cool i understand thanks

do you know how much splash damage it would be

[idle silo]

I’m playing a Sorceress on Hardcore. If there’s anyone who has completed the campaign, could you share any tips or things to watch out for?

[smoky delta]

Just finished campaign, is it normal to be dying a lot to Tier 1 maps?

[lusty hinge]

It's only getting an aoe, no dmg increases to these strikes are happening

[half pumice]

add more evasion to equip

[fallen arch]

you tend to get to maps with poor resistances so yes

[lusty hinge]

So whatever dmg your strikes do

[fallen arch]

up resistences makes sure you have some decent hp to tank some of the hits and slowly fix up the gear

[half pumice]

oh like the full amount? sick

[fallen arch]

Big tip play slow, we ain't racing nobody, some builds better than other at that point

[half pumice]

i thought it would be cut up

[smoky delta]

to get HP at this stage is to just get as many max life on items as possible right?

[lusty hinge]

If it did, it would state it, in general

[fallen arch]

Focus on resistances i would say and try to get some hp rolling after all 1 hp aint gonna help even if u are capped, just a temporary solution until u boost up that gear, and yes just get hp for now, but dont go invest like crazy no need at all

[smoky delta]

okok thx

[wintry oriole]

what are so good support gems for solar orb skill?

[humble bobcat]

if i have 100% phys converted to fire, will the phys from "10% dmg as extra phys" also be converted ?

[flint plume]

No

[humble bobcat]

cool ty, that would allow me to leech stuff

[merry dock]

hello anyone know how to get the yellow halo everyone uses?

[karmic pumice]

chat how do i convert my splinters into breachstone

it just says 300/300 with no tooltip to convert

[flint plume]

Try unstacking and restacking

[karmic pumice]

did that

[flint plume]

It's supposed to happen automatically when you have a stack of 300

[karmic pumice]

weird

[lusty hinge]

It was a twitch drop campaign, not sure if it's still going

[karmic pumice]

omg dumb. it worked in my inventory and not in the stash

[merry dock]

ahh okay cool thanks

[karmic pumice]

can anyone carry breachstone boss?

[rugged kayak]

whats the discord with the scam list?

[craggy gyro]

Need help with jamanra cruel ign draxnter PLEASEEE

[lusty hinge]

Try asking in #2┃looking-for-group or using carry services like poexchange

Or, the best solution is tweaking your gear/skills so you won't have to look for carries

[rugged dome]

Hello i have a lot of rare items why should i do with them, i know the mayority of them will not be accept for trade

so idk if a should just sell them to the npcs

[stable swallow]

so it say life is low. if i have 1 life and million ES. dose it count as low life?

[cursive ibex]

would anyone be a G and get their boy poe2 for my bday🙏

[sage token]

i just did a lvl 68 trial of sekhemas, why cant i ascend?

[flint plume]

You only beat the first floor. Need to be the third floor if you're going for your third ascension.

[merry dock]

hello, anyone know at what level you should start going into an "endgame" build? Im at 28 now do i start changing my skill tree?

[sage token]

how do i get there

[flint plume]

It depends on your build, but you're not even close to endgame

[flint plume]

Door at the back of that room

[sage token]

ohh

i see

[merry dock]

the ice monk, what level should i start? because as i understand its quite expensive

[sage token]

if i die the djinn barya is gone?

[flint plume]

Yeah. If that happens I actually recommend doing a 2-floor one before attempting 3 floors again. That unlocks more relic slots, and relics are a really big deal.

[short hedge]

Is there a way to buy poe1 cosmetics for my ps account? I can see the mtx on the site but don't see a way to actually use it. (also if this is the wrong place to ask, let me know)

[merry dock]

mabe level 40-50?

[flint plume]

I think on PS you need to buy them through the PS store

[short hedge]

I bought the mtx points through the ps store. If I can only spend them on things available through the ps in-game shop, that's a bummer.

[flint plume]

I don't know the build that well. Actual endgame starts around level 65-70. Maybe you can transition to it sooner than that, maybe even later. Probably depends on the version of the build.

[sage token]

dang okay i see

[merry dock]

okay perfect thanks

[clever geode]

how does shock works? like higher the damage done = higher chance to shock?

[flint plume]

Yeah

[clever geode]

then why did it get harder to shock when playing with 2 person

[flint plume]

Maybe enemy ailment threshold goes up along with their life in multiplayer

Not sure if that's how it works, feels like it shouldn't, but it's possible it does

[cursive ibex]

would anyone be a G and get their boy poe2 for my bday🙏

[smoky delta]

i currently have really low res from just finishing the campaign. Is it worth using artificers orbs on my current subpar gear and using runes just to make sure I can farm maps? or save them for when I buy better gear

[shut abyss]

you got exalts? you can get alot for a few on the market

[smoky delta]

yeah i have 18 exalts - as in buy artificers with exalts?

[shut abyss]

as in spend 1ex per every piece of equipment

@smoky delta you can get up too 86 resistances on a ring with this right now for 1ex

[oak forge]

I got viper to 1 health and she decides to do 5 back to back immunity phases this boss legit hates me

Burned through my last 4 pots and died

Is she hard coded to do a certain amount of those phases in her boss or something?

[night pike]

just 3 spear phases

[meager galleon]

nah, just unlucky rng

[night pike]

thats her only immunity is it not?

[oak forge]

I got 6 in that fight 🫠

The fire and chaos circles

[night pike]

isnt immune in that

[oak forge]

She takes way less damage and the circles one shot so it might as well be

[night pike]

just attack during fire, dodge during chaos

fire is easy dodge

but chaos is wack

[meager galleon]

you might be lacking some hp and resistances if the circles one shot you

[night pike]

yeah chaos resist is a must for aztaal

[oak forge]

Well I can't get any upgrades from vendors so that's not really something I can change

I just had bad rng

[meager galleon]

happnes

[oak forge]

I'm out of money because I tried to get some better rolls (that didn't happen)

[shut abyss]

got a chaos charm?

[meager galleon]

you mean gold, or also the like transmutes/augs/regals ?

[oak forge]

gold

[meager galleon]

not using the other stuff to try and rng into a good item ?

[oak forge]

I've only had one drop 💀

[shut abyss]

one chaos charm is enough

[oak forge]

I did on all my current gear

[oak forge]

I already used it

[glass saddle]

Can anyone help me with figuring out how much this would sell for

[oak forge]

What I got from those was garbage, I keep getting accuracy and damage types that I'm not using

[meager galleon]

seems like at this point the only advice i can get is to try until the fight rng doesnt fuck you or you get better at the fight ¯_(ツ)_/¯

[oak forge]

Like I barely have any lightning buffs on my armor and that's all I use 😭

[meager galleon]

we dont do price checks here, check the discord linked in #trading

[glass saddle]

Aw don’t even know there was one thanks bro

[oak forge]

Actually now that I check, none of my armor is buffing my damage it's all just stats and QoL stuff lol

[shut abyss]

@oak forge whats your level? i can check if my box of scrap got any chaos res for you

[oak forge]

46

[sage token]

why is this shitty door not opening

[meager galleon]

thats fine, in general weapon is your main source of dmg, you dont look for dmg mods on other gear until later

primarily everything except your weapon is defensive stuff in acts

[meager galleon]

did you put a djinn barya in the altar and click start ?

[oak forge]

Well my weapon is a level 20 quarterstaff because every quarterstaff roll I get is either completely out of my stat band or it has absolutely nothing I'm looking for

[shut abyss]

oh yeah /invite mopparii

[shut abyss]

good luck

[merry dock]

anyone know if there are any quarterstaff MTXs in poe2?

[sage token]

yeah\

it worked it just took a while for some reason\

today been weird i keep disconnecting from the server and it kicks me out

just got kicked out during the sekhemas trial again

[humble orbit]

is there a way to get back to zigurrant encampment present once you finish curel? I dind't took venom draught first time and want to take it now

[halcyon sky]

hey! im a new player to any poe game I played the first one for around 2 ish hrs and thought this one looked a lot more my pace, I've played alot of souls games and was doing some research into the game and mechanics ect but what im really stuck on is what class to start as I decided agents any spell heavy classes as those aren't typically my prefured style however I do plan on playing solo and just wanted to ask for any suggestions

[rigid bridge]

any class can use any skill

all classes are fine though the campaign and into early endgame

certain classes/builds have a harder time going int o the super endgame stuff

[sage token]

is anyone else having connectivity issues

[rigid bridge]

1. you may or may not care/worry about that
2. there will likely be balance/content changes coming as it is EA after all

[halcyon sky]

ohhh alr so really it doesn't matter they can all be interconnected in a build and still be overall viable?

[normal ibex]

not really, but i did notice that a bunch of servers have quite high pings, worth checking to see if theres a faster connection

[flint plume]

Class matters, classes are just flexible and there's a lot of room for creativity and not just going with the obvious builds.

That said, when you're new I think it's still easiest to just pick the class with the play style that looks like the most fun to you.

[halcyon sky]

alright fair enough lol thank you!

[misty sinew]

How do I fight uber bosses? Do I need waystone tier 16 for that?

[stoic nacelle]

are we able to improve the quality of quiver or belt to +20%?

[rugged tangle]

I dont believe so, havent seen anything that increases belt quality for sure

[stoic nacelle]

also are there any materials that can increase quality on %rarity stat?

not sure if catalysts like defense or something improve it

same question for +spirit stat too

[craggy gyro]

hi anybody know how far 7meters are in poe 2?...on screen...asking couse of far shot deadeye tnx

[plain relic]

its like a few exalts

[meager galleon]

thats an old pic from poe1

[zealous osprey]

Few ex, what?

[meager galleon]

for the meters just drop the zeroes

so 8 is pretty much edge of the screen

[zealous osprey]

That ring doesn't have any useful mods afaik

[meager galleon]

should be accurate enough to approximate distance in poe2

[cunning geyser]

Is it possible to have more then 1 anointed item equipped?

[fallow dune]

what are your thoughts on Kripp’s exploding sniper infernalist?

[meager galleon]

you can annoint only amulets

[cunning geyser]

ty

[fallow dune]

it doesn’t seem very strong rn but it could be that I don’t have fireflower amulet yet

[rich summit]

need help w/ last step to gate

act 2

[normal ibex]

if you have any light mod gear wouldnt that also be useful for gauging distance?

[meager galleon]

no, and if you dont stop with that i'll ping a mod

[shut abyss]

thats 6 meters so lines up with the earlier image

[rough birch]

Is the minion build, bad? I keep reading in the in-game global chat people say infernalist/witch minion builds are just not good?

[zealous osprey]

Won't say they're bad

As in good damage, defences and scaling

Just that minion playstyle is near always clunky

[zealous osprey]

I'm personally playing DD and sometimes my minions get me fucked by doing random BS

Very rare, but yeah

[rough birch]

DD?

[zealous osprey]

Detonate Dead

Rest of this area is brutal too

and yeah

[night pike]

i read "ranger do no dmg" in chat...

dont trust em

[shut abyss]

you're weapon is probly lacking in damage

[celest cape]

cant join servers offlines

[rough birch]

Wat this

[celest cape]

servers offline

[rough birch]

Is this a "Keep clicking until you get in" angle

Also if vendors only ever restock on level up, how do you get them to restock after high levels?

By playing alts or?

[meager galleon]

you dont

[shut abyss]

vendors(expect the gambla) are limited to too low ilevel so you dont use them

[meager galleon]

you dont rely on vendors in endgame

[rough birch]

Understandable

[sudden jasper]

[meager galleon]

endgame loot is from monsters and crafting and player trade

[rough birch]

Are servers in the mud or is my internet shitting itself?

I keep getting in and getting dc'd after

[meager galleon]

you arent the first today to complain about disconnects

so there might be something fucked

[celest cape]

cant connect the game.

[meager galleon]

tried different login server?

[rough birch]

Amsterdam gaming let's go

I think it's Frankfurt that's dead and buried

[zealous osprey]

Frankfurt was always meh

SG too

[meager galleon]

frankfurt is the default for way too many ppl in eu

[zealous osprey]

And SG in Asia

[woven zealot]

Dammit....Frankfurt went down. London works....

[celest cape]

london works

[rough birch]

Don't go London

It might have people from the UK in it

[woven zealot]

?

What do you mean?

[silent mulch]

someones offended

[winged crescent]

me Im offended cause I dont know whats going on

[shut abyss]

racism is going on D:

[meager galleon]

not exactly but kinda

[winged crescent]

its not racism if you just hate people

[elder axle]

i hate black does that mean im not racist ?

[shut abyss]

but if you discriminate because they're from uk isn't that racism?

[meager galleon]

no

racism is hate based on skin color

[winged crescent]

No I just hate everyone

[meager galleon]

discriminating based on country of origin is a different kind of fucked up

[winged crescent]

Its like having a least favorite flavor of ice cream

[shut abyss]

ah no racism doesn't need to be based on a skin color

[shut abyss]

calling people objects is bad too

[meager galleon]

the name is literally based on discriminatiog based on persons race

[winged crescent]

when did I call them objects?

[hybrid star]

I hate the Maraketh

[meager galleon]

thx for bringing this back on channel topic lotte

yeah, lets drop that line of conversation, its not for this channel

[shut abyss]

comparing people to ice cream and saying it's not racism then 😄

[winged crescent]

I was saying it as I just dont like Ice cream

[shut abyss]

stop stop back to topic

[tacit knot]

Do i need to rebuy poe 2 beta to play on steam

Its better for controller i think

[winged crescent]

shouldn't as long as you can manage to get the cd key for I think

[meager galleon]

you should have access on your poe account

login to the website and check for a steam key

here https://www.pathofexile.com/my-account/early-access

[sudden jasper]

Where are the keys on the website if i may ask?

[shut abyss]

that link right there ^

[tacit knot]

What it does : The Steam Key provided on the PoE website does not grant Early Access (EA) . Instead, it allows you to add the game to your Steam library. If you share this key, your friend can see the game in their Steam library, but they won’t be able to log in to play.
Where it applies : If you’ve purchased EA through Steam, the Steam Key from PoE will not provide EA to anyone you share it with. It simply allows the game to appear in their library for download.

I think this means i still have to repurchase for steam

[meager galleon]

no

it means that giving the key to someone wont give them EA access

but you already have EA access on your poe account

[clear crest]

this is so random

[rigid bridge]

no you just have to link your steam account to the poe acct

[meager galleon]

if you have this green line here

it means you can play poe2

[hybrid star]

oh wait I bought from the client that means I can also play on steam?

[meager galleon]

if you want to, yeah

[royal canopy]

Where is it guys?

[hybrid star]

vally of the titans, near the waypoint

[royal canopy]

Thanksss

[tribal goblet]

Can someone tell me what this buff is called on the left

And how i can get more numbers to it

[haughty niche]

Shock?

[tacit knot]

It worked thanks esge should have done this long ago, becsuse steam offers controller suppory and it lets you type etcetera

[hybrid star]

shock magnitude

[haughty niche]

I believe shock has a default cap but forget what it is in poe2

Should be 30 or 50

[normal portal]

Hi, I need help for path of Excel two full campaign

Could you join me to go party of new members, so I can play with them together?

[hybrid star]

let me launch my Office suite real quick

[haughty niche]

#2┃looking-for-group might help

[normal portal]

Ha ha ha, that’s funny LamaO

[rigid bridge]

shock

[rigid bridge]

base is 20%, cap is 100%

[mental tusk]

is trading site not working?

[rustic venture]

runes are plentiful and cheap. keep using them unless you're ssf

[smoky delta]

why do people put lightning infusion on herald of ice on double herald setup? doesnt that reduce the cold damage from the herald?

[rustic venture]

goal is to shock and freeze the enemy. herald of ice cant freeze, but it can shock if you give it lightning damage. reverse for heard of lightning

[rigid bridge]

even then you don't really have to be too judicious. If you get anything even moderately "ahead of curve" i would go ahead and slap runes in there

[shut abyss]

and this is because with enough damage it will chain until everyone is dead

[tribal goblet]

How can i increase shock number?

[lean cobalt]

hello any1 knows whats wrong?

[rough birch]

If I equip the one on the left, will I notice the loss of move speed

And will it be worth the loss of move speed

[shut abyss]

wont be worth it, only thing you will notice is the loss of movement speed

[hybrid star]

that's personal but I would prefer MS over anything on boots

[shut abyss]

magnitude

[cursive bluff]

The regen 0.3 life one never drops for me lol I have more cores than those ones

[rough birch]

You mean to say pick right one over left?

[tribal goblet]

Can i get that in support gem?

Sorry new to all this

[shut abyss]

yes or passive tree

[shut abyss]

yep

[rough birch]

Also, when am I supposed to be doing my ascendancy trial stuff?

[honest carbon]

what is the DPS of minion?

[shut abyss]

keep both, swap between them and see if you can tell the difference D:

[shut abyss]

try it out, if you get your ass kicked, try it later.

[rough birch]

One of them is on vendor inventory atm

[shut abyss]

ahh

[rough birch]

Won't lose the entry thing if I die?

[stark lynx]

nop

the first of each trial method is repeatable

[dense pagoda]

can anyone help how can i tp to them bro

[craggy gyro]

think so

i was gonna too, but actually deadeye is my spice now

[shut abyss]

you can guess little bit how well you will do on how easy you clear 38 level zones in the campaign

[dense pagoda]

anyone

[wary crest]

is it possible to hide party member loot?

[rugged tangle]

range OP with the right skills.... good clear and crazy single target..... I blasted through normal and halfway through cruel atm with my ranger in little time

[stark lynx]

nop

[shut abyss]

you need to catch up to them

[craggy gyro]

yeah its not that kinda clear that sorc can just full screen dmg lol. but its got some aoe and bossing feels good. early on the aoe is kinda gas arrow and flame wall

[stark lynx]

loot is in the instance

ig one way would be to change allocation settings to ffa and just joink everything

[rough birch]

Where is this temple of chaos

[craggy willow]

Is it normal for the yellow named enemies to be tanky as hell?

[rough birch]

I gotta go back to regular Act3 I guess?

[wild hedge]

In HC, if i press pause and exit, will i be dead?

[rough birch]

No but how will you sleep at night

[shut abyss]

either one is fine

[wild hedge]

Fine, because the game is currently stupidly tuned

[rugged tangle]

havent made spark sorc yet, its probably better for clear with the coverage spark gets but ranger clear is definitely good

havent decided when/if ima make a spark build, they tend to be really expensive late game and last spark build I did(poe1) I got so bored with cuz it was too easy once heavily invested

[craggy gyro]

think its real good, and early on evasion is pretty good afaik for surviving. maybe not the best tank later but i think if you kill everything everything fast enough no worries. you might like sorc for comfyness tho

[rugged tangle]

depends on your build, you unlock ones you may like better later on but its personal preference and how you build it

[craggy gyro]

after campain you can do lightning arrow with lightning rod, and use herald of ice/thunder with cast on shock and shoot lightning balls on shock 😄

[rugged tangle]

you can do lightning arrow + lightning rod from the start.... blasted first 4 acts so far crazy fast with them lol

[craggy gyro]

yeah you can, i liked gas arrow

[abstract frigate]

which one is better?

[rough birch]

If portal is disabled in trial, how do I hoard my loot?

[round patio]

if i use an item that gives -17 strength but have less than 17 strength, is my strength below zero or does it just get stuck at zero

[stark lynx]

are you a minion build?

that should answer your question

[rugged tangle]

do you play controller or m&k? I feel like controller would feel bad on ranger

[craggy gyro]

ikwym if its that you gotta toss out lightning rods, thats why i think LA comes together better later and went with gas arrows.

and just explode gas clouds with flame wall

[shut dune]

did they fix the bug with the kabala/sun relic ?

[rugged tangle]

didnt know there were any lol

[shut dune]

ye bc i can't get the boost from the relic quest

[rugged tangle]

odd, ive done it on multiple characters and havent had an issue..... first im hearing of it tbh

[shut dune]

its like the "slot" where i need to drag my relic into its dissapear for no reason

[rugged tangle]

ya idk, havent seen that myself 🤷.... if its a known issue im sure it will be fixed soon but idk when next update is planned

[abstract frigate]

Yes

So +3 level to minion skills is better, right?

[stark lynx]

isnt it 9 levels stronger skele warrs?

[shut dune]

alr i need to wait so

[abstract frigate]

6 yeah, mine are currently level 5

[rugged tangle]

hes adding the +3 from the item too

[abstract frigate]

oh okay

I understand now

[stark lynx]

• you can craft the +3 scepter to give more affixes

[abstract frigate]

how can I do that? I am sorry for asking basic questions

[rugged tangle]

orb of augmentation>regal> exalt if still good

[covert lily]

Is anyone missing 2 skill points post campaign? I just double checked and have done all the +2’s for all 6 acts (+4 in each act) but I’m missing 2 points.

Any ideas?

[fading carbon]

Is anyone able to help with a level 68 trial of sekhemas so I can get my ascending points please

[tall gulch]

Shouldn't endurance charges give me staff charges?

[shut abyss]

imma guess here, do you have resonance passive?

[tall gulch]

Yup

I tried disabling it, same thing.

Refunding*

[shut abyss]

what are you generating charges with?

[snow tartan]

Anyone able to help me with Black Chamber and the Boss after?

[tall gulch]

illusion = endurance, and tempest flurry for power charges. But it really is hard to regenerate power charges. I am 100% doing something wrong lol.

but I can't figure it out lol

[shut abyss]

well illusion creates power charges with are turned into endurance charges that do not work for charged staff

[tall gulch]

What does it work for? Also what is the fastest way to charge my staff?

[shut abyss]

there's few options but resoance uses combat frenzy which is quite carefree

[craggy gyro]

can someone help me with giant's blood? I have 232 strength, i try to equip a 27 strenght req 2H mace, but i then can not equip my shield. I am misunderstanding the effect?

[tall gulch]

sometimes I keep hitting a mob with a lot of tempest flurry but it takes time to shock

[rough birch]

When the dumbass bird boss in Act 3 trial place becomes an invincible tornado and starts whirling towards me, what's the counterplay? Literally run in the other direction and hope I'm faster?

[tall gulch]

While using Electrocute it is a little bit faster, but still the same

[shut abyss]

combat frenzy does not give you charges on shock, freeze,electrocute or pin

[tall gulch]

what then?

[rugged tangle]

combat frenzy generates charges whenever you freeze, electrocute, or pin an enemy.... those charges are converted to power charges with the resonance passive....... if your not using combat frenzy with resonance or arent doing enough freeze/electrocute or pinning enemies you wont get the power charges for charged staff

[shut abyss]

^ soo get freeze or electrocute somewhere in your kit

[tall gulch]

Can you please tell me the right support gems on tempest flurry for it to generate?

[rugged tangle]

how many sockets you got?

[shut abyss]

electrocute and neural overload

[flat swan]

What sort of bow should I use act 2 merc this should I just buy one wth an exalted i got or what

[rugged tangle]

try martial tempo/electrocute/lightning infusion assuming your only using a 3 support socket gem

[tall gulch]

I have 3 sockets, but can increase to 4. Got one greater.

[rugged tangle]

go with primal armament in the 4th then

[tall gulch]

That is actually faster. Thank you! But I still have a lingering question haha. What is the use of endurance charges haha?

[rugged tangle]

you wont get endurance charges, with resonance they get converted to power charges..... slot charged staff on your hotbar and when you get charges hit that button and all of your staff attacks will get charged staffs buff..... you need to continually refresh the charges and buff to keep it active but should give you range and dps improvement

[unborn delta]

Is there some kind of cooldown period on freeze? If I freeze a boss, it seems I have to wait a bit before it starts freezing properly again.

[flint wind]

would make sense

[willow tendon]

Hello everyone

Just wondering, where can we see the bonus of critical strikes and the chance to critical please ?

Thank you

[shut abyss]

they get alot of resistance for a while

[scenic salmon]

Yes you can't freeze the boss for 3 years until you invest a bit more

[willow tendon]

Hi Lady Ilori 🙌

[shut abyss]

the arrow button on your skill window

[willow tendon]

Thanks for yesterday tips, I passed the boss of act 1 🙏🏻

[scenic salmon]

Nice!

[tall gulch]

so basically it keeps my charged staff active, right?

[willow tendon]

Okay thank 👌

[rugged tangle]

ya as long as you generate and use the charges

[willow tendon]

Yeah my rob was not strong enough actually 😂 went from 20dmg to 94 with runes 😂

[tall gulch]

But if I only have endurance charges the staff won't activate, right? (Because that is what is happening in my situation)

[torn hill]

what can i do to safe (defer) the divine orb? all rituals are done -.-

[rugged tangle]

you using resonance on passive tree?

[tall gulch]

yes

[rugged tangle]

then look at your skills and whatever skill says "generates power charge" or whatever to that affect STOP using it

with sekhemas, its 2 points for each floor

[modest thicket]

I thought I did I had the djinn relic of whatever

[meager galleon]

relics dont make it more difficult

[modest thicket]

Oh I gotta beat it 7x

[near garnet]

nope, thats Trial of Chaos

[modest thicket]

So do I just need to be level 45?

To make it harder?

[near garnet]

You are doing the Djinn Barya, correct?

[modest thicket]

I just beat it but yeah

[near garnet]

if you hover it there is number of trials

Hallo. To get my second ascendancy is it by beating Trial of Chaos?

[near garnet]

but it gotta have more trials than 1

[near garnet]

yes, boss at the 4th trial

[modest thicket]

Ah so those are only open if you have a relic that have more than 1 trial?

[rough birch]

If I give this reforge station thing 3 white sceptres, is it guaranteed to give me a white back or?

[fleet sleet]

Thank you!

[modest thicket]

Or was it open for me on that last run and I fucked it up

[steel wing]

how do i get back to the hideout?

[near garnet]

there is also area lvl writen on it, it has to be more than 45, to have more trials

[near garnet]

type /hideout

[modest thicket]

So I’m level 38 rn, will it not even drop until 45 for me?

[buoyant isle]

F5

[steel wing]

thanks

[near garnet]

int act 3 you can also do

[modest thicket]

So these also give points?

[near garnet]

in 4th room is boss, after that you can pick up points

[modest thicket]

I think I’m close to act 3? I just beat that monster || on the caravan where she cuts off his head || {campaign spoiler}

[modest thicket]

So it’s basically a trial?

But slightly diff?

[near garnet]

yes, different challenges, and you can get hit

[mystic valve]

is the totem shockwave build good for 1st char

[fleet sleet]

Oh you only have to get to the fourth room for trial of chaos to get your points?

[modest thicket]

Dope Ty

[fleet sleet]

(Very new to the game. Sorry!)

[steel wing]

Question, the jewels you put in your passive tree

do you get the benefits of them?

or do they need to be in an item ?

[fleet sleet]

no the big jewels can only be socketed in your tree and they give you the benefits

[sleek goblet]

Does anyone have a djinn barya ascendancy 3 I can tag along for?

[clever geode]

#2┃looking-for-group

[high saddle]

Is socket system different from POE 1 in poe2 .. heard people they ruined their items by using bad gems so can't they just remove it ?

[shut abyss]

yep, runes are permanent.

[near garnet]

you don't put gems in socket

[high saddle]

Oh I am still in between PoE1 and PoE2 which to grind i not able to decide for long run

[near garnet]

now the gems have sockets for supports

items have sockets for runes

[high saddle]

Oh

Will it be worth it to buy early access of POE2 or wait until it's fully free. I started PoE1

[near garnet]

there are about 9k people online in poe1 and 281k in poe2 right now

trading will be bit harder in poe1 now

[elder axle]

for minions that deal cold damage what type of cold damage i need to look for on ring ? cold damage or cold damage to attacks ?

[azure lava]

neither of those apply to minions

[elder axle]

oh

[merry berry]

Cold damage

[azure lava]

minions only benefit from things that specifically apply to minions

[merry berry]

Wait huh?

That’s crazy

[elder axle]

Xd

[merry berry]

I need to fix my Witch

No wonder she sucks

[azure lava]

like "minion damage", support gems linked to minions, and things that apply to allies

[elder axle]

okay i see

thank you

[zealous osprey]

🔥

[merry berry]

Oh so the cast the cold Skelly does isn’t a spell?

Like it’s all minion damage

[azure lava]

I'd recommend holding alt and clicking the minion keyword on a gem or the passive tree

[azure lava]

if it uses a spell, you're still not the one casting the spell

your passive tree only affects things you do, not your minions (unless it specifies minions)

[merry berry]

I need to amend my horrible mistake

I’m so sorry witch

I’ve made you crap

[zealous osprey]

Well, you'll eventually understand how stuff works XD

Lots of reading this game has

[azure lava]

you can also hold shift over a node on the tree and it'll tell you which of your skills' dps values it will impact and by how much

[merry berry]

Yeah like I’ve left her on the back burner because she felt so much worse than my Sorc

I finally understand why

[zealous osprey]

All ascendancies, built well, can yeet the most difficult of content eventually

[merry berry]

Honestly I just might roll another sorc for chrono but like I want to level every class as is 😭

Like I wish I had infinite time

It’s so fun

[azure lava]

just have one chrono and respec it. You can do everything on chrono.
This message brought to you by the chrono gang

[merry berry]

The hammer of gods build is so funny looking I might legit roll one just for that

Tiny petite mage dropping that shit out of the sky is 🫡

[sudden zealot]

can you proc multiple ailments on a boss? eg. freeze and burn?

[near garnet]

you should be able to

[craggy gyro]

Good morning exiles!

[unborn delta]

o/

[craggy gyro]

Hi @unborn delta

[azure lava]

yes

[craggy gyro]

Almost done with Act 3 Cruel SSF. I didn't know it was this complicated without trading

[shut abyss]

what skills would use use to level up a chrono?

ah rod

[modest thicket]

Also when do support gems level 2s drop?

[alpine silo]

act 3 i believe

[near garnet]

act3

[modest thicket]

Ah

That explains a lot

Lmao

Also how does cruel difficulty work?

[alpine silo]

same acts but harder basically

[unborn delta]

Same shit, take 2.

[alpine silo]

more anemies

[modest thicket]

Do I need to start a new character or can I take this one I have?

[alpine silo]

same character

[modest thicket]

Oh sick

[alpine silo]

its placeholder for act4-6

[modest thicket]

Ahh

Did they say when those are coming

[alpine silo]

not to my knowledge

but im not up to date with all the info

[unborn delta]

I'd guess not much sooner than, say, a year from now.

[zealous osprey]

harder higher level

[clever geode]

[alpine silo]

i mean so far i have died more on cruel than normal

[unborn delta]

Going to come down to how your build scales I imagine.

[tall spear]

hello guys

[rough sierra]

can sombody help me

[unborn delta]

Should I be saving up these weapon skill points or use them immediately?

[tall spear]

i am new to poe 2

can someone help me kill jiramaia or whatever his name xD ?

[azure lava]

#2┃looking-for-group

[azure lava]

this is a help channel, just ask your question

[azure lava]

weapon skill points are not bonus points. Unless you have a specific plan for your build that involves weapon swapping, I wouldn't touch weapon skill points

[weary minnow]

Is there a best way to farm jewels as ssf?

regular jewels

[azure lava]

sekhema trials have above-average jewel drop rates, especially from the reward chests, I think

[rough sierra]

ive reached endgame with my spark build currently struggling with Low damage and mana problems

[weary minnow]

ok cool, which chest type would drop them?

[azure lava]

then you want #2┃after-acts-help

[unborn delta]

Oh I think I just got it, they're for having a slightly different passive tree depending on weapon?

[azure lava]

I don't know the name, unfortunately

[near garnet]

chests: royal, time-less, time-lost

[weary minnow]

Cheers!

[azure lava]

yeah, basically. The way they're displayed, most people think they're free extra points when they're not. Then they end up allocating them without realizing what they do and they make their build worse and their life harder

if you see "16 (16)" in the upper right for a weapon set, that's what it's supposed to say. You're not missing out on free points

as long as the "Skill points" at the top says 0, you've allocated all your passive points

[unkempt birch]

Need 3 and 4 ascended what cost

[azure lava]

if you're looking to buy a carry, we don't do that on this server. Check #trading for alternatives

[hollow kernel]

do ssf and standart share the same chat?

[lament stone]

no

[vivid heron]

i think im the final part of act 2 where i have to invade the moving enemy cart and its a bit harder to kill the swarm of enemies. should i grind previous areas before trying again?

[buoyant isle]

You can even get a Against the Darkness Time Lost Diamond Jewel with Spirit

[lament stone]

theyre not getting one of those in the campaign

we keep campaign and endgame channels separate for a reason

[azure lava]

imo, if you feel the need to grind previous areas, you're just experiencing a symptom of a larger issue; You haven't been diligent about upgrading your gear as you progressed.

Check vendors, gamble, pick up more stuff, sell, salvage, and/or disenchant the extra stuff for more resources to make improvements to your gear

transmute + augment white gear that has a good base

prioritize life and resistances on gear, and especially movement speed on boots

[buoyant isle]

This is a drop from Zarokh from the Trial of Sekhemas. True the Ascendancy is not a Part of the Campaign.

[lament stone]

yes i know, zarokh is level 75+ which is past the campaign, this channel is for new players who have never beaten the games campaign

[half pumice]

anyone know how to switch weapon set when doing passives for ps5?

[hard blade]

Dose resistances get nerfed each act you complete?

[opaque stone]

Yes

[azure lava]

yep, -10% to your ele resists

[vivid heron]

i think i got some decent gear thanks to my guild stash's stuff and they're better than most things i found or crafted for several lvls now, except for a ghostwrithe i found.
I'm not getting a lot of orbs for my lvl tho i think, i have never found a Alchemy Shard, only had 2 Artificer's Orb, only have a few Exalted Orbs and Regal Orbs

[azure lava]

alchemy shards aren't a thing in poe2
are you salvaging items with sockets? that's the primary way to get artificer shards (10 of those make an orb)

you don't need to use exalts and regals. you can beat the campaign with magic gear with two mods

just find gear that's terrible and transmute + augment bases to try to hit life + a resist

if you do, that's when I'd regal it

(if they're good tiers)

[lament stone]

life and elemental resists are all you need on gear

[waxen portal]

how long does the trade site usually go down for?

[lament stone]

movespeed on boots

damage and attack/cast speed on weapon

[vivid heron]

yeah those dont drop a lot hence i only got a few

[azure lava]

items with sockets?

[vivid heron]

yeah i picked up all the ones i found

[azure lava]

and you're salvaging them, not selling/disenchanting them?

[vivid heron]

in the beginning i think i sold/disenchant non-white item and then in act 2 i dont see a lot of them and salvaged all i found

[azure lava]

if you see a socketed item in the vendor for cheap, I'd maybe buy it as well

[vivid heron]

ok i havent considered that thanks

[alpine silo]

dang, good amount of resistances

[azure lava]

as an ssf player, I'd exalt that

[alpine silo]

what is ssf?

[azure lava]

solo self found, no trading/partying

[alpine silo]

aah

[lyric crescent]

Also salvaging an item with any amount of quality gives you a whole scrap/whetestone/etcher

Not only shards

[azure lava]

it gives you one for every 5% quality it has, rounded up

[dark ridge]

im in act 5 and having a rough time now but haven't updated my armor in over 10 lvls. I haven't gotten any good drops. I need to use trade site right?

[civic rose]

as a new titan, which path should I take first?

[azure lava]

you don't need to use the trade site, no, but it's an option

[dark ridge]

whast the other option

[azure lava]

whatever you think looks the most useful. You can respec ascendancy points if you change you mind

[lament stone]

you might be too restrictive on what you think is "good"

any 2 mod item with life + an elemental resist is good enough

[dark ridge]

less evasion and resistance

[lament stone]

evasion doesnt matter

[dark ridge]

oh

[lament stone]

not at this point

[azure lava]

check vendors, gamble, socket your gear and puts runes in, transmute + augment white items.

Prioritize life and resistances on gear and movement speed on boots. ignore all other stats on non-weapons

[dark ridge]

ok ill go for health

[lament stone]

life + elemental resists are the most important stats, other defences like evasion or energy shield come after that

[dark ridge]

i have 1200 hp at lvl 56

78% evasion

get randomly 1 shot in a lot of mobs

[lament stone]

and your elemental resists?

[dark ridge]

51 fire, 32 cold, 13 chaos, 20 lightning

[lament stone]

that sounds like youre ignoring elemental resists

yea those are pretty low

[alpine silo]

lol i now have wind dancer spirit gem with vitality and cannibalism. the life regen is crazy (i have a body armor with spirit)

[dark ridge]

okay ill get some more

[lament stone]

the cold and lightning at least

chaos doesnt matter

51 fire is fine

but the combination of life + elemental resists does far more for you than going all in on evasion

because of how evasion is coded, you will get hit every so often, so you need to have other defences to deal with the hits that damage you

and also evasion only works against melee strikes and projectiles by default
