Report the bug i guess

Check area level

And yes the boss is abit hard if u got no gear/ roght skill setup

[steep plover]

16, so I guess I’m just bad lmao

[clever geode]

He hits really hard

Just dodge the heavy attack

[normal ibex]

i was 18, but also monk hits like a truck, area is bugged, you need to exit game to fix that problem

[steep plover]

Lovely

[clever geode]

I died alot there too but had no issue
That was before the patch

[normal ibex]

yeah, its a post patch issue

[clever geode]

I do have 8 chars so i did that map 16 times

[grave crystal]

act 3 is such a slog

[clever geode]

Act 3 is slow without a carry

U can zoom pass act 3 if someone give u portals

[grave crystal]

i hope the future acts arent as big

[steep plover]

Jesus, I only have like 3 or so hours every other day to play tops. Fun while I do tho

[normal ibex]

eh? i hope they have acts to get you all the way to max level

[sharp light]

what do i do if i completed an entire map but it doesnt show that i got credit for it

[normal ibex]

imagine only having boring repetetive shit to do to level shudder

[clever geode]

I dont think they can
Together they must be same as act 1-3 again cause if too long we will over level for mapping

[clever geode]

Bugged map i guess

What map are u talking about?

[sharp light]

it was the sulphuric caverns or somethin like that, i already closed the game lol

[clever geode]

I mean endgame?

If so go to #2┃after-acts-help

[fast bane]

Yeah I get this too, there's a bunch of posts on the forum about it.

[surreal hemlock]

I play monk - do i always have two staffs? Or just one is enough and only the one stats in slot I apply?

[clever geode]

1

Unless u using other slot for debuff etc

Which i am doing

[trim turret]

You only need items in your second weapon set if you're using the weapon swapping feature that assigns specific skills to specific weapon sets and the weapon set specific passive points you get in the game.

[surreal hemlock]

Thanks guys

[hard cypress]

I just started Merc, can you reload manually or have to shoot till it reloads ?

[austere tree]

why there is two energy shield values ?

talking about one in bottom vs top

this is on trading website

[clever geode]

1 is mod

The other one is the value u get

Mod increase the value

Btm is mods

So if btm have +100 then top auto added the +100

[outer whale]

where do spirit stones drop

[austere tree]

but it has 100%+ increased energy shield shouldn't it it be double

[clever geode]

Yes

It added the value

The top is the total calculated value of the gear itself

[clever geode]

Anywhere it can drop skill gem

[normal ibex]

from earlier conversations it seesm likely the bottom value is what the energy shield eill be at max quality

[clever geode]

Ah

U mean the very btm

Mb i did not see

[austere tree]

ah now it make sense

thanks

[clever geode]

Yes at the very btm its the value it will be when u give it 20% quality

[languid plinth]

Why is that Bros name 💀

[clever geode]

How did your go to the btm
Mine is at the top right

[austere tree]

I got no idea it was always like this

[wooden crane]

How good is the dustbloom vest with its fragile regrowth

[clever geode]

Unique are mostly
Trash

Excluding some op one

[clever geode]

Fhats the one u take damage and lose the stacks right

[wooden crane]

Yeah

[clever geode]

Kind of bad i think

Cause to not get hit u prob a range

If mage u need es

If eva build u need eva

That armour dont give much stats iirc

[wooden crane]

Im a electric monk

[clever geode]

So

U need evasion

Alot

If invoker

U need es and eva

Even early game i don't suggest using it

U get hit quite abit

[wooden crane]

Im focusing a bit more on energy shielding tbh

[clever geode]

Iirc u need both

For spirit

[wooden crane]

Yeah im not using that passive on my monk atm

[normal ibex]

i give in, its impossible to learn a bosses moves when it does unavoidable moves that kill you in less than 3 seconds

[wooden crane]

Already got my chest piece that gives me 39 spirit

[clever geode]

?

[normal ibex]

i'll google it and be a loser like everyone else 😛

[clever geode]

Yeah thats good

What boss u fighting

[clever geode]

Sooner or later u need that passive

[normal ibex]

its not at all good, its fucking piss poor design

[clever geode]

Well

Sounds like you meed more resist

It play a huge part

[normal ibex]

chaos resist is a myth

[wooden crane]

I feel like im doing alright on boses did jamanra second phase with no health potions lol

Took ages tho

[clever geode]

What boss does chaos

[half schooner]

Reinstalling my game seems to have fixed my crash issues for those dealing with it

[clever geode]

I watch a streamer fight that boss for hours

[normal ibex]

how, the twat just one shots me with the wind, cant see enough of anything to get past it, same as the traitors passage bitch and the unavoudable gass cloud

tho i might try that one again now i have more levels

[torpid burrow]

I was under estimating resistances and I was hard stuck a few times, they are mandatory. Even with them capped you can still get clapped but way less.

[wooden crane]

He is very tanky and ontop of all the bs he spawns your dodges 80 percent of the time are environmental related not actually him

[normal ibex]

i check traders every level, i have one pair of boots with 5% chaos res

[winged quiver]

why do i feel like 35 percent of all element resistance is rlly good xD

[normal ibex]

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

[hard cypress]

umm gas could is not unavoidable. Wind thingy is also avoidable

[wooden crane]

Eh i mean between charms and runes ontop with what prefixes can give not too worth it

[hollow halo]

Would it be okay to get a price check in this channel?

[normal ibex]

no

[hard cypress]

#price-check📉

[hollow halo]

Oh okay thank you very much

[winged quiver]

true ig i dunno thought it was decent for a helmet

[trim turret]

The gas cloud dissipates if you find her in the arena.

[normal ibex]

i'm calling BS on avoidable arena filling effects, you cant dodge anything or anywhere, the cloud is worse, but the sandstorm drains so fast i didnt even see if i could get to the bridge

[wooden crane]

How good would u say this chest is?

[trim turret]

The sandstorm the girl puts up a shield to stand behind.

[pale kindle]

question can you remove and/or add implicits?

[normal ibex]

i have more health and better flasks now, so i might survive the gas cloud now, it drained me so fast earlier in the game

[wooden crane]

You are going to be hating hard on jamanra

[trim turret]

You aren't meant to try and survive it. It's a gameplay mechanic, not a stat check. You just find her where she's hiding.

[crisp quarry]

What does having an item filter do? I see it says strict and semi strict, etc but why would I want less loot?

[trim turret]

Not really. Corruption can do it but it's random and can also brick an item.

[trim turret]

It hides items that aren't worth picking up and highlights ones that are. You get to a point where grabbing everything is a waste of time.

[pale kindle]

thanks

[crisp quarry]

But how can the game tell me what's worth picking up or not? Just based off of rarity or item level? I feel like I should watch a video on this

[trim turret]

Neversink designs and updates the filters based on both general value of items you'll pretty much always want, like currency, along with what is valuable in the player economy.

[crisp quarry]

Okay that makes sense but why do I hear so much about PC versus console filters? Something about mods maybe?

[hard cypress]

Even if you need to pick up everything, the basic filter changes color and sound of better drops like exalted orb which are valuable but don't highlight well by default

[trim turret]

It's just harder to get filters onto console.

[wooden crane]

What does elemental invocation mean with trigger socketed spells will it just proc all my spells at once?

[crisp quarry]

Okay I'm on act 1 on cruel i do see a lot of white items with no quality or stats or even sockets

[trim turret]

Exactly so at that point those bases only have value if you need one for crafting cause your gear is in rough shape or because the base can be chanced into a valuable unique item.

[hard cypress]

Base items can become unique ?

[crisp quarry]

Alright I'll look up what they do and choose the best one

[hard cypress]

I thought uniques only drop naturally

[trim turret]

Neversink is the one to use. Strictness is up for interpretation but we used to recommend semi-strict in POE1 for the campaign.

[trim turret]

Nope. They all use a base item that exists in the game.

If it's the right item level and base you can chance it. Not guaranteed of course.

[hard cypress]

So if I make them magic, I have a chance at it becoming unique ?

Oh chance

[plucky light]

I need some help

[trim turret]

No, you need to use a chance orb on a white item.

[hard cypress]

Gotcha, thanks

[trim turret]

This is the channel. Unless its for a carry.

[plucky light]

Fighting final boss in a3 cruel. I'm a lightning ranger. I wanna use cast on shock with something socketed, but I never see it proc,ever

Can you not proc cast on shock as a ranger???

[meager flower]

Uhm... when we "chance" items, they simply disappear from inventory?

[trim turret]

Read what chance orb does.

[crisp quarry]

This?

[plucky light]

Like, I've read and re-read the description of it.

[trim turret]

What do you have socketed with cast on shock and is cast on shock turned on and reserving spirit?

[thick cliff]

is this worth 3 ex to use temporarily ?

[trim turret]

Should be.

[meager flower]

yeah but I don't like the destroy part 😄

[crisp quarry]

Ty for the info

[clever geode]

At lvl 55 yes

It seem good

[trim turret]

No reward without risk.

[plucky light]

@trim turret lightning conduit & impetus. Yes it's assigned and reserving spirit

[clever geode]

I got a near perfect hh from it

Do it

Just do it

[plucky light]

@trim turret

Like...I don't understand lol

[trim turret]

Hm. Not sure. It's turned on, lightning conduit is linked to it (and you meet the requirements to use it), and you're shocking enemies? Is the little percentage meter increasing in the top left of your screen?

[plucky light]

I even had Comet socketed just to test the proc

Whats it look like exactly

The yellowish bar that goes up under enemy hoM

Hp?

[brisk root]

so do totems ever get better for merc or do they just suck?

[azure lava]

what does merc have to do with the totems?

[trim turret]

Are you investing in them on the tree?

[brisk root]

i was yeah.....but it didn't seem to change anything

[brisk root]

their turrets

[azure lava]

all classes can use all skills and gear. Are you referring to crossbow ballistae?

and as totebag said earlier, it depends on how much you're investing into them and maintaining your gear, especially your weapon

well, I'd have to check on the weapon part, I'm not sure if they use your weapon or not

[brisk root]

yeah that's what i'm refering to

it says it uses it's own weapon

[idle mantle]

I see all these monk builds that use Resonance so they can easily build power charges, but how do you actually get the frenzy charges that can than convert to power?

[trim turret]

Combat frenzy, a spirit skill.

[azure lava]

what skill are you using, specifically?

[idle mantle]

okay thank you

[brisk root]

artillery ballista

it's damage only does like 10% of a normal mobs hp

and that's a generous estimate

[trim turret]

With what support gems and passives invested in it?

[brisk root]

idk i'm still only like level 35 lol. i'm just curious if at later levels the damage gets good enough to one shot mobs

[azure lava]

everything gets good if you invest into it

[brisk root]

k

[copper brook]

is there a way I can view my current critical hit chance?

[brisk root]

is there a build already for totems? or not yet?

[azure lava]

if you're just slapping a skill onto your build without optimal supports or passive tree bonuses, it will feel weak no matter what it is

[brisk root]

i got to the first totem upgrade at the bottom that gave me 1 more turret to place

[azure lava]

the game is in its infancy, so idk if there is a build guide for ballistae yet, but I'm sure people are using it to at least beat the campaign

[trim turret]

Gotta look at each individual skill since it can vary between them..

[azure lava]

it scales super hard with + level of projectile skill gems. do you have that stat on your crossbow?

[brisk root]

level of projectile skill gems?

don't think so

lots of physical damage on my crossbow currently

[azure lava]

that and %increased ele damage with attacks are about the only two stats on a crossbow that would help artillery ballista

[stable swallow]

can anyone give a fun invoker build

which is fast

and ofc work >.>

[brisk root]

would projectile damage increase the ballista's damage?

[azure lava]

yes

[hearty meadow]

Do most players actually make it to wealth in this game? Is like 10 div a lot as you get to farming? I’m thinking like old school D2 with Ber runes…

Can’t believe items make it up to like 20-60 div+

[azure lava]

I've found at least 3 divs just from playing in ssf

[brisk root]

would it's damage be physical? or just fire?

[azure lava]

up to around t11 maps

[azure lava]

I don't know off the top of my head, check the gem

[hearty meadow]

I found 1 div so far in like a t5 map

But I go to upgrade my bow and the next best upgrade is many divs haha. Guess I’ll get there eventually…

[azure lava]

there are probably loads of much cheaper upgrades you can make first

getting quality on your gems, more sockets on your skills, quiver, etc

[brisk root]

says physical damage (although at the top one of the categories it has is fire)

so if it's damage is physical, shouldn't physical damage lines on my crossbow increase it's damage?

[azure lava]

read if it has damage conversion

[normal ibex]

pretty sure that was over 20 attempts and only 3 got to second phase, his explosion junk is fire damage right?

[limber yarrow]

So I am a level 40 witch. I have saved all my yellow gear. Just started to play around with trading. Should I trade yellows, salvage, or sell to vendors

[brisk root]

ah yup looks like it converts 60% to fire

[azure lava]

90% for the explosion (which is the bigger part of the damage). I just checked with an uncut I had

[brisk root]

well no wonder i'm not doing any daamge....i put brutality on it which makes it deal no elemental damage hahahaha

i'm dumb dumb

[azure lava]

lmao, tbh

[brisk root]

this is very helpful thanks ❤️

[azure lava]

reading is op

glhf

[brisk root]

who has time to read

aint nobody got time for that

[azure lava]

definitely not the people who spend 10 minutes in discord trying to figure out why they're doing zero dps

[normal ibex]

#AudiobooksAreReal

[limber yarrow]

Did I ask a wrong question?

[hearty meadow]

I’ve got all sockets on my armors. Ive only got one skill gem at 20% so that’s true I can buff the rest. All my gems have three sockets. Actually not sure how to get more lol…

[azure lava]

nah, I just didn't see it; check this out https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1328202289755983932

[brisk root]

XD

[normal ibex]

all trhe yellows, probably best as disenchant fodder

[brisk root]

i took that support gem off fyi and it tripled the damage in the stat window XD

[azure lava]

greater jewelers orb to get to 4

perfect to get to 5

[hearty meadow]

Ah haven’t found any of those yet.

[azure lava]

it's actually way more than triple because the stat window only accounts for the artillery damage (the 60% phys to fire)

[hearty meadow]

Guess I can trade in some ex for them? Unless they super expensive. Good point though, probably a decent upgrade

[quick magnet]

Is it pretty normal for the game to crash fairly regularly?

[azure lava]

greater jewelers orbs can't be more than a div, but idk, I don't trade

[brisk root]

would giving it over abundance make it so i can place 2?

[normal ibex]

i got 2 jeweler orbs is deshar, and a level 9 spirit gem i cant use

[compact owl]

Is there a known issue for joining parties?

[azure lava]

3 with the passive node, yeah

[brisk root]

is the passive node what you call the skill tree?

[azure lava]

yeah it's the passive skill tree

[brisk root]

i saw there is another passive on the tree that gives +1 to totems placed. do they stack? ( can i apply both and with the support gem get to +4)

[azure lava]

yes

[brisk root]

ohhhhhhh

thanks byron ❤️

[bleak sand]

Which venom draught is better for monk? Thinking mana but not sure

[azure lava]

they're basically preference. none are all that impactful

[brisk root]

sorry for not listening earlier, i am stubborn and frustrated with learning this whole new system and what everything means hahaha

never played poe 1

[azure lava]

I'm just still amused that this was one of the first things totebag asked on the subject and we could have saved a lot of time if you asnwered it sooner 😛

[brisk root]

is the 30% fire resistance penetration support gem good?

[azure lava]

if the enemy has at least 30% fire res, yeah

(and you have no other pen)

[limber yarrow]

Ok just read the article. So basically disenchant the yellows, sell blues, and if anything seems like it has a good bit of affix’s look up to see if it’s worth selling.

[brisk root]

ok time to try out this totem stuff again. thanks again @azure lava ❤️

[azure lava]

nothing in that guide says anything about selling to other players

and don't DE yellows

unless they have 6 affixes

[limber yarrow]

Well yes that is true

[fierce panther]

what does DE do on 6 affix yellows?

[azure lava]

gives 2 regals shards instead of 1

[fierce panther]

ah cool

good to know

[normal ibex]

surely 1 is better than none given the cost of making them with complete mods?

[azure lava]

what do you mean?

in what scenario do you get none?

[normal ibex]

if you dont disenchant

[azure lava]

gold and regal shards vary in value depending on the person doing the valuing

imo, gold > regal shards in the campaign for rares, usually

[craggy gyro]

how many characters is the limit

[normal ibex]

start typing, see how far you get?

ive seen some long ass names tho, which i'm assuming is what you mean

[brisk root]

HOLY COW yeah they do WAYYYYY more damage now @azure lava hahahaha

k next question. what's the jewel sockets on the passive tree?

what do i put in them?

[rugged dome]

How much for these,is even good?

[fierce panther]

Is this part of The Titan Grotto supposed to do anything? It has a checkpoint and seems important

[topaz junco]

just world building, its not important

[tired forge]

What sort of tank should you aim to have before heading into Waystone Level 8?

Is 1400 HP, 6500 Armor, 3000 Energy Shield sufficient?

[scenic salmon]

I entered with 2k you should be fine

(that said I'm a ghost dance abuser now)

[river grove]

dont need help

[trim turret]

Because you have no skill socketed to cast when you shock enemies.

[river grove]

yeah i asked a freind who has it lmao

i just realized

[opaque stone]

It may have been meant to do something, but currently doesnt

(There used to be a map icon named "Titan's Treasure" which was removed)

[fierce panther]

is there a known bug where you invite someone to party and the party is formed with no one in it and the person cant be invited because they are "in the party"?

[crisp quarry]

[wooden crane]

Heard that its not added yet because of early access but there was meant to be treasure there

[final fog]

does this affect Spirit requirements?

[crisp quarry]

No because Spirit is not an attribute

[brisk root]

yup that was a stupid question hahaha

so what's the purpose of corruption altars? just found my first one

sounds like it yolo rerolls the items lines?

[fierce panther]

basically, it also allows much greater stats or even mods you cant normally get on the item. But it is huge rng most of the time

[plush mantle]

depends on the item you corrupt, but yeah, rares have a chance to have their affixes changed, or the values of those affixes rerolled (with the possiblity of being higher than normal), or an enchant added...or nothing

[brisk root]

so yolo on items that aren't your main itemn

[fierce panther]

yea definitely dont gamble an important piece without a backup lol

many a people have ruined their build by corrupting their build defining piece and getting reemed by rng

[eager bronze]

If I complete trial of selhemas except the 3rd boss, can I just invite a buddy and he can join so he can get his 3rd ascendancy?

[zealous osprey]

Yes

You gotta portal out though

When you portal in you start from waiting room before boss

[eager bronze]

Ohh portal out and then invite?

[zealous osprey]

You can invite whenever, but he can only join after you portal out and start (resume) trial again

[crisp quarry]

Is there somewhere to test damage?

I'm using minions so the DPS Tell doesn't help

[plush mantle]

pick a campaign area, watch the damage on a boss in the area.

[timber fjord]

hey

im still surviving in hc ssf

[plush mantle]

that sounds like a bug 🙂

maybe a bit of a general question, but at lvl 75 roughly what waystones should i be clearing? Running deadeye and seems 3 is my current limit

complete APRG noob too

#2┃after-acts-help

but the answer is: depends on your gear and how much your build needs that gear

[languid shuttle]

Any advice on the ascent to power mission

[plush mantle]

in Cruel? it's bugged, not supposed to exist

[languid shuttle]

Wym not supposed to exist

[haughty niche]

its a side quest that rewards a quest item to get your first ascendency points

[plush mantle]

becuase you unlocked Trial of Sekhema in normal Act 2, running the quest to unlock it doesn't make sense

[haughty niche]

its not supposed to be a quest in cruel difficulty

Cruel difficulty is a temporary placeholder until they complete acts 4-6

[languid shuttle]

Yeah im act two

Assuming this is the mission to where you get your sub class

[haughty niche]

then find the djinn in the area and kill them

[plush mantle]

act 2, level 20ish, or act 2 level 45ish?

[languid shuttle]

Level 20

21

[plush mantle]

okay, so where are you stuck?

[languid shuttle]

Im playing witch and im just struggling to output the dps

I just get hoarded on the portal missions

[plush mantle]

ahh, IN the trial

[languid shuttle]

Yeah

[plush mantle]

avoid the ritual rooms if you're having trouble with them

do u maybe know does deli effect drops? like in poe1?

[languid shuttle]

Im just wondering if i should level more before attempting it

[languid shuttle]

Alright thank you

@languid shuttle I was 27 when I did it as a minion witch

the only 2 people i expect knowing are here... u and byron xD
asked there already 2 times lol

[plush mantle]

😭

[crisp quarry]

People switch between channels to help

[plush mantle]

we have no reason to believe the mechanics of delirium have changed, other than the fog direction

[haughty niche]

I have an undending grudge against delirium because it is the most boring mechanic and greyscales every piece of content it touches. Never interacted with it in poe1 or 2

so no i don't know how it works in this one

[safe lance]

Nah, Delirium is cool, good music etc.

[humble karma]

u never used deli orbs? i dont believe u lol

[haughty niche]

i dont

they are annoying and i value my fun over profit

[safe lance]

I value profit but I am not good at making profit so I pretend to value fun.

[void crest]

I have to admit, i distill every map i run and it kinda sucks that these beautiful designed colorful maps are all just a grey mess

[safe lance]

I am trying ritual on this new char its been decent.

[humble karma]

u get used to it after a time xD

[void crest]

?

It just sucks, it looks bad is all.

[safe lance]

I forget this is the acts channel, the only acts thing I can think of is to make sure to get every essence you see.

[haughty niche]

you also get used to making a bit less currency to enjoy the scenery

[humble karma]

nah xD can i hit 100% btw?

[haughty niche]

🤷‍♂️ id assume its similar

[safe lance]

I think you can only hit 100% in delirium map but I could be wrong and havent even read in poe2.

[haughty niche]

they ported the mechanics nearly 1:1, soo much that they don't fit poe2's balance. So id assume it can reach 100%

[safe lance]

There is a hard timer, correct?

[humble karma]

probably if i try distill them more then once if its even possible

[safe lance]

nice

[haughty niche]

the distilled emotions provide layers of delirium ala poe1 orbs

but anyway, #2┃after-acts-help

[edgy mauve]

when following path of exile builds what is considered mid game, when should i switch off of a leveling build to a mid game one etc?

Can grenades chain? They count as projectiles but… 🤷🏻‍♀️

[void crest]

Just picked a random one off the ground.

I use Fear Paranoia Fear when im instilling though.

yea I havent done a single one yet sry. I think I finally found a build I like and am progressing the char. I have a level 87 that is with 0 gear. Technically I am always in acts, I am also currently leveling a gemling with my wife in coop.

[faint obsidian]

Hi everyone, I’ve searched the entire traitor’s passage in cruel (also defeated balbala) and Jamanra…but the quest still prompts me to search traitor’s passage. Is this a bug?

[plush mantle]

yep, not supposed to get Ascent to Power in Cruel

[haughty niche]

i like the pconc build i have but im waiting for a complete defenses revamp cause its completely impossible for my character to survive stray hits unless i drop life and go CI

[safe lance]

Unless it says it cannot chain, it should. Which skill specifically?

[humble karma]

btw i dont see the reason doing that on a t11 xD

[timber fjord]

im just winging a summon build

[void crest]

Currency drop rates are the same on t11 as t16, just a common misconception that you need to run higher tier maps to farm currency

[bitter fulcrum]

There is a node that says projectiles have a 10% chain an additional time from terrain.

[safe lance]

I went to CI and full ES with eternal youth and also shattering conc, it was very cheap to set up. Didnt have to buy much at all and just had to exalt a bunch of stuff.

[faint obsidian]

So this quest prompt will forever be there?

does anyone knows how to get back to the end of trial of sekhemas

[safe lance]

until they fix it yeah

[keen dove]

i got there and the game froze

[plush mantle]

should go away once you're out of the Act

[faint obsidian]

Awww shucks

[keen dove]

when i logged back in im at the start

[bitter fulcrum]

So I guess no since the original grenade skill does not chain?

[safe lance]

oh yea it shows only if you are in act 5 mb but if you go to quests lists it is still there.

[faint obsidian]

Okie dokes thanks @safe lance and thank you @plush mantle

[humble karma]

probably when out of acts depending on the cost i would say

[safe lance]

yea I would consider after acts as midgame too

[plush mantle]

yeah, PoE1 definition of midgame was generally "after campaign, up until red tier maps"

[safe lance]

But based on GGG videos I think they want to call this endgame, so maybe early endgame is the proper term now.

[timber fjord]

when should i start worrying about chaos res?

[humble karma]

i would say counting in the diversity of people who play the game, its where u want it to be

[safe lance]

I would say like over T8 maps maybe. I had like 20 chaos res on my char and was doing T15s, just gotta try and avoid as much chaos damage as you can with dodge rolls etc.

[plush mantle]

always...I'm always worried about not having chaos res. Doesn't mean I have any, but I'm always worried about it 😉

[safe lance]

I am CI on this char, so I never worry.

Is going ES/Evasion generally better for CI? It sounds logical to hedge defenses but it feels like you can get so much ES from tree and gear.

[bitter fulcrum]

I’ve never made it to maps ✌🏻 maybe someday

[humble karma]

some people do just acts and call it a day, some try maps and are done, some gear a bit take a look at t16, some aim for mirror gear, in the end its where they want it to be

[safe lance]

The pace gets a bit quicker once you are in cruel acts.

[humble karma]

btw thats what @haughty niche told me xD

[safe lance]

Spend more time updating your char gear when you hit cruel imo.

[humble karma]

i still consider endgame having perfectly nice mirror gear

[bitter fulcrum]

One day I will follow a build like it tells me and I will experience poe like it’s meant to be lol but for now we suffer and enjoy it

[hard cypress]

Unga bunga first playthrough is the most precious

[haughty niche]

if you want the true poe experience, play blind, in non-ssf but still without trading, and make the shittiest garbage ever seen then make a new character and follow a build guide

Really though, poe2 makes it very easy to do your own thing and end up alright. Less things to trip over than poe1.

[humble karma]

being able to use more then one skill is nice i like it 😄
in the end kinda fixes some of the dps u are missing

[haughty niche]

Like I think the only real rules to follow are:

1. Aim to cap resistances asap, elemental first, chaos if you can. You can definitely do acts around 30-50 res but higher helps.
2. Keep weapon updated constantly, its 90% of your damage on most builds, even spellbuilds now that weapons roll +x to skill lvls.

for minions theres probably extra rules but they are always wierd/scale differently

[exotic sierra]

just started a sorceress and now I find out weapon spells have no mana cost??

[safe lance]

yea

[haughty niche]

Its a weird choice yeah. Kind of forces you to use them, especially on bosses. Unless you go MoM with insane mana regen investment

[safe lance]

I only realized when I was helping my wife set up witch. Interesting design.

[humble karma]

not really, the tree is trimmed there isnt much wrong u can pick, when it comes to scaling +minion skill lvl and the weapon thats it but they kinda hit really fast a ceiling

[haughty niche]

ye besides the whole character/monster balance issue my main issue with the game is the passive tree being bland af. Theres nothing really attractive in it compared to poe1's which could drastically change your build and stuff. Theres a few cool things but very sparse.

[exotic sierra]

horribly unbalanced design. free fireballs when I have to spend 1/3 of my mana to swing a staff with a bit of cold damage >_>

[haughty niche]

mana scaling is giga fucked atm

[safe lance]

And also supports are very tame and don't mutate the supported skill a LOT.

[humble karma]

my char screams all the time out of mana xD

[haughty niche]

Shockwave totem adds like 9% of the mana cost per level after lvl 18, and thats the main/only way it scales damage. So you end up with like a 2k mana cost...

Definitely why im enjoying pconc. literally 0 manacost lol

[safe lance]

The most you can seem to get is a couple extra projectiles or damage buff/conversion etc. But I have only played bow builds so far and one staff build. I did see fortress was cool for flamewall but not as crazy as poe1 supports.

[exotic sierra]

oh is pconc free too?

[safe lance]

Its also a bit confusing that minions are persistent skills but they are engraved from skill gems.

conc consumes charges from flask.

[haughty niche]

yup. granted skill by pathfinder. I think their decision was that it uses flask charges so it can't charge much/anything?

[mortal frigate]

I just finished cruel mode with my first character and started maps. I'm running the ice strike monk invoker build from raxx. Not really sure what kind of equipment I should go for. Are there any unique pieces I should definitely try to get

[haughty niche]

though atm you can use pconc with 0 flask stuff taken on tree and its fine so probably a balance issue there imo

[safe lance]

Doesnt he talk about gear? Is this a Chaos inoculation build?

[haughty niche]

uniques aren't really the best thing in poe. They are simply unique. Most of your best gear will be well-rolled rare items

[exotic sierra]

you should ask in https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1308714975082053693 once you're thru the campaign

[tidal willow]

is there a way to check the DPS of Raging Spirits?

[humble karma]

isnt it at the skills?

btw i never looked actually lol

[tidal willow]

of all the minions, Raging spirits doesnt have DPS on the window

[humble karma]

yeah saw it right now two there nothing actually...

maybe pob knows

[languid sundial]

anyone need lvl 2 support gems i need to get rid of some

[humble karma]

does IGN stand for "in game name"? 😄

[languid sundial]

yes

[humble karma]

i was so confused seeing so many people with IGN names

thought they are related to IGN 💀

[thick zephyr]

is co op scaling absurdly high in this one? in a duo and i feel like my damage is cosmetic

[haughty niche]

should only be ~100% increased monster life per player

roughly

[tidal willow]

we play as a trio every weekend (Warrior, Ranger, Sorc). Mobs are tanky and every boss feels like a real challenge.

[thick zephyr]

i thought so

[haughty niche]

One issue i had with coop was level downscaling when there was a large level difference between me and a friend.

It made things like freeze buildup 20-50x worse

[thick zephyr]

yea

freeze monk

nothing dies

[finite prairie]

How are you supposed to leave a trial when it locks you out or doesn't give you anything on leaving?

[timber fjord]

hate the dreadnaught area

[ionic niche]

Can someone help me beat the wolf boss

[austere patrol]

Guy, i dont know why ES not recharge. do know have any idea about it

[ionic niche]

Need help beating wolf boss

[austere patrol]

i can help u

[wary widget]

when playing monk whats better when looking on trade website, an items with lest physical dps but more crit, or an item that list higher dps no crit

[eager bronze]

Anyone have a 270% or above widowhail?

[humble karma]

maybe 😄

let me login

[eager bronze]

I have some

[manic violet]

Is lvl 10 too early to be fighting Lachlann as monk?

Or is it a skill issue

[humble karma]

can only give u some of the higher once for later if u want

i cleared my stash yesterday

for free btw

have just those left

[eager bronze]

That's high enough

[timber fjord]

act 2 boss down ssf hc 😛

[crude vessel]

Where can I buy bulk items to sell for gold with ex?

[whole hound]

Hey, does anyone know why sometimes when you use a travel node, the other stats will go down?

[obsidian plover]

why does my minion stop doing doing damage to colossus? it's like he's invulnerable

[narrow burrow]

how do i get the 3rd set of ascendancy point ?

[glacial palm]

Hitbox on that dude is... less than fun.

I had my effigy firing into the platform for a good portion of the fight.

[obsidian plover]

yeah i figured it out, i gotta command minion to the chest, not the arm otherwise it do nothing lol

ggg really gotta fix this boss

[glacial palm]

There is another higher level token. Most people don't get it until after campaign.

[narrow burrow]

level 52 ?

[glacial palm]

Don't have them memorized. I think the sekhema one is 3 trials, chaos is 8?

Want to say it's more like 69-70. Again, most people would not drop them during the campaign. Usually they leave with 2-4 ascendancy points.

[exotic sierra]

7

[sturdy barn]

thoughts: there should be a node letting your clerics to heal your hp, or the coming witch necromancer class should have such node in their ascendency

[oblique harness]

is there any more gold rooms for farming gold like in act 1 mausoleum? ty

[daring dragon]

There is no need to farm gold like this.

[oblique harness]

im very low so i am trying to get ahead on gear by gold early on, just thought maybe another area. need couple pieces upgraded

[vapid cave]

What can i possibly do to not die right here? i have 20% move speed boots and its still faster than me

https://youtu.be/Uo57ClBsZRY

[daring dragon]

Keep playing and sell the majority of items to the npc

[undone kernel]

Bro needs a skill gem tab

Tbh tab priority imo
Currency
Premium
Maps (why don’t we have it in poe2 yet)
Skill gems (if ur ocd)

[plush mantle]

repeatedly dodge rolling makes you slower than just moving unless you have increased dodge roll distance

[vapid cave]

i started rolling becuase it was faster

i saw i wasnt fast enough running and was hoping i could at least get outside of it enough for it to end (it didn't)

[daring dragon]

It's not

[vapid cave]

it sure looked faster

[grave crystal]

will map tabs include trials of sekhema and chaos keys

[cursive bluff]

That's because the roll animation is actually faster but there's a small downtime from getting back up that brings the speed back down

[plush mantle]

it's faster at the start and slower at the end. But you are out of the tornado after the first dodge roll (you stop taking damage), don't take any damage on the 2nd roll, but the third roll is INTO the tornado and that finishes you off

[haughty niche]

highly doubt it

that kind of stuff went in fragment tab in poe1. though there wasn't a direct 1:1 item cause those didn't exactly exist

[plush mantle]

would be nice, but PoE1 had a fragment tab for things like that, so up in the air

[grave crystal]

hmmm kay

[plush mantle]

I think precursor tablets at least should go in the waystone tab

[warped jolt]

a quick question: do normal mobs in maps have resistances? thinking if the 30% res penetration support gem is worth it

[haughty niche]

Depends on the monster pretty sure

And any monster can spawn in any map layout as of right now

[warped jolt]

I'd mean the regular mobs, non-rare non-magic

[cursive bluff]

Can sunders aftershocks/fissures be ancestrally boosted

[plush mantle]

if they have a grey or yellow icon near their HP bar, then they're resistant. Most white mobs aren't from what I remember

[haughty niche]

Monsters have differing base stats

[warped jolt]

ah, yes the little icons

thanks!

[fresh mulch]

so i want to get this boss that i miss

where should i be to get it?

[cursive bluff]

You're in the area already

[vapid cave]

i meant the tornado sure looked faster, i know about the slow bit at the roll end

[vapid cave]

ahh

[fresh mulch]

cleared entire area and cant find it

[cursive bluff]

Got soul cores?

[plush mantle]

fairly sure aftershocks can't be boosted, but the fissures should be able to. you can tell their boosted as they have more area and red highlighting

[fresh mulch]

yes the big monkey with lasers

i beat it

but in act 3 there is jiquani machinarium on map and on act 3 cruel i cant find it

[plush mantle]

it's in Machinarium, not Sanctum 🙂

[cursive bluff]

It's an asc point so can't test it but I'm doing aftershocks sunder which can send out up to 8 waves from 1 slam

[daring dragon]

Did you actually clear the whole map? Nvm

[fresh mulch]

so where is machnarium in cruel mode?

cuz in normal act 3 it was here close to sanctum

[cursive bluff]

Past the chimera

[plush mantle]

have to look above ground to see the zone marker

[fresh mulch]

is it here? i miss this area somehow

[proper lion]

whats stock?

[cursive bluff]

How many people are selling

[plush mantle]

aftershocks don't count as "you use yourself" as far as I know

[daring dragon]

Yes, Sylvanis already pointed out the reason. I was just asking because you would be surprised how many people claim they cleared the map while actually not having done so.

[cursive bluff]

Well it's how many they have that you can buy for that exchange rate

[cursive bluff]

Yeah I figured I just didn't know if the fissures that come out after are still the same since all waves/aftershocks can take armour break for the crit

[plush mantle]

yep

and yes, it's unsigned, so Windows will try to stop you from running it

not worth the...$1000? it would cost to get a signed key for an open source project

[exotic sierra]

would you need to renew that regularly?

[plush mantle]

every year

[young pollen]

guys, I need your help lol. so it looks like I've totally skipped the stupid Witch in Act3 Cruel. turns our she gives 40 spirit and that's kinda a big deal, since I play minions. I've just realised this and tried to clean this up - killed her 2 times already, but no permanent buff is given...any clues?

[proper lion]

its a glitched icon that always says you haven't done it

[exotic sierra]

yea for that cost I'll risk ot lol

[exotic sierra]

I have not had a single one of the passive bonus quests fail to complete

[young pollen]

oh, alright! that's a huge relief then. I was really frustrated that I lost +40 spirit in there

thanks!

[plush mantle]

if you have 100 base spirit, you killed her and got the +40 already

[cursive bluff]

It's just visual the white icon remains

[young pollen]

yo, where can I check the base spirit stat?

[plush mantle]

take off your gear 🙂

[young pollen]

ah, makes sense

[plush mantle]

or do the math of how much your gear adds

[exotic sierra]

look at your mana bubble

[narrow frigate]

has anyone else had an issue with all game audio besides music completely cutting out randomly?

[plush mantle]

haven't heard that one. Know some people have an issue where it forgets the output device until you change the volume, but haven't heard that one

[meager galleon]

that feature is missing from the poe2 trade site currently

[main copper]

Just got the 3 dragons mask for my lightning monk build. Just wondering how do I proc lightning formy siphoning stike to gain power charges now?

I really wana use the helmet just a bit confused on how to go about it

[vapid cave]

omg i forgot controlled destruction disables crits so you cant shock... thank fuck i realized now at least considered casting was only 4dps loss and probably is better becuase i can shock now...

[swift rapids]

act 3 cruel gonna get real cruel now

[vapid cave]

ouch

im at cap with 2/3 in regular act 3 i hope it doesnt get too bad in cruel to lower that...

[plush mantle]

it's -10% per act and then one more when you finish the campaign, so -60% total

[swift rapids]

its more like just dont get hit

[plush mantle]

pretty sure the answer is "you don't". You don't have a source of fire with quarterstaff skills, so you'll have to use Combat Frenzy and the Resonance keystone to be able to generate power charges (or cull with Killing Palm, but ew)

[vapid cave]

well ill hopefully be able to unlock archmage from a gem by then to if thats the case it will no longer be an issue

[swift rapids]

when i first started playing the only huge issue i had was the boss of act 2 being honest

[vapid cave]

oh yeah he is kinda hard at the end

the second portal coming out kicked my ass

i didnt think there would be a second one! 😭

[fresh mulch]

killed fire guy but idk his name

okay where is this one???

[vapid cave]

act 1 boss with the blizzard was pretty bad for me becuase i couldn't get the timing right

[swift rapids]

oh yea wolf too

but in cruel it gets easier since your build is better

[vapid cave]

second time is... hopefully easier???

[plush mantle]

she's not here?

[fresh mulch]

i used those and nothing happend exept for buff

[narrow frigate]

doryani the official king of asspulls wtf is this guys fight and why does he do everything imaginable

[plush mantle]

ahh, that was the ritual circle

[plush mantle]

add that it was isolated like that

[vapid cave]

any tips for Uxmal before i fight it...

[fresh mulch]

what

[vapid cave]

i was hoping for spiky bird but no dice

[fresh mulch]

@plush mantle thats a bug or something? where do i find this witch/

[swift rapids]

should be

[plush mantle]

I usually find her in the top right of the zone, but you're backtracking for unfinished things right? Make sure you don't already have 100 spirit without gear

[plush mantle]

cry because the he spends most of his time in the air or moving between platforms

[fresh mulch]

i killed the fire guy whatever it was the one that spawns walls on the side of you and then fire is coming so to dodge you come close to the boss

is this the witch?

[plush mantle]

yep

[fresh mulch]

cuz if so its a bug

okay

[plush mantle]

yeah, that icon stays lit because she refuses to admit defeat or something 😉

(it's bugged)

[fresh mulch]

:P

[rancid elm]

so pain offering not work with magnified effect ?

[dire solstice]

What are good gems to socket into Archmage?

[plush mantle]

Clarity, if you have spirit for it

[scenic salmon]

+1 lighting

[vapid cave]

aww damnit the spirit guy got me killed

i had uxmol at 10% 😭

didnt even die at 7 stack either i died trying to stay away from the thing

frost got me tho

[fresh mulch]

why is this from higher to lower? should be better to have higher stat?

[plush mantle]

because it's negative numbers

[daring dragon]

No. It says reduced duration on you

Wait

[fresh mulch]

ee?

[daring dragon]

Yeah I see my mistake

[meager galleon]

on the backend its interpretted as
-50 to -46 increased duration

[daring dragon]

It's early

[empty sluice]

46% is better as it means it’s 54% effective

[meager galleon]

its always the lower number first

[fresh mulch]

ow

so its kinda bug

[plush mantle]

it's -50% to -46% bleeding duration. Negative numbers in PoE are show with the higher magnitude first

[empty sluice]

It’s just weird wording.

[fresh mulch]

btw what do i do with those items? i ended all quests i think all i have left is chaos trial

another bug or what?

[daring dragon]

Sell to Oswald

[plush mantle]

read the screenshot 🙂

[meager galleon]

its not a bug, just that instead of showing a negative number it says reduced instead of increased

[daring night]

Sell to the weapon vendor at act 3 for some gold

[fresh mulch]

ow

omg

i forgot

mb

[plush mantle]

asking questions answered by the screenshot you post gets you put on a list...🪦

[meager galleon]

nah

[empty sluice]

Maybe a corrupted bricked one

[meager galleon]

we dont do trading here

you can check the discord linked in #trading

or the trade site poe2.sale

[chilly stump]

oh thaks

[plush mantle]

huh, didn't know there was a redirect for the trade site

[empty sluice]

I have to wonder what Doryani uses all our gold coins for when we respec. Maybe etching gold circuit boards

[meager galleon]

yeah somebody made that years ago for poe 1 trade site, and they did it also for 2

[daring dragon]

Funding evil geniuses like Dr Eggman and Dr. Doofenschmirtz

[empty sluice]

Bro’s too self important to share. He gotta save the world himself

[daring dragon]

To save it there needs to be some who wanna destroy it.

[meager galleon]

guys this is a discussion more for #2┃general

we try to keep the help channels to helping

[empty sluice]

Sorry

[meager galleon]

its fine, its not a big deal since there isnt much going on here atm

but stuff like that gets chaotic when ppl ask questions inbetween

[daring dragon]

Of course yeah

Wouldn't have engaged in offtopic chitchat when there is high traffic

[dire solstice]

Is there a way to farm item that opens 4th gem slot on a skill, or is it pure rng drop?

[meager galleon]

rng

[daring dragon]

Rng or trading

[meager galleon]

there is no specific place it drops

in endgame there is a way to make it a little more common under certain circumstances

but thats about it

[daring dragon]

Trading as in using the currency exchange npc to be more specific.

[dire solstice]

I am about to finish act 3 cruel today so I assume it's time to get into those maps and such

[dire solstice]

Like Alva ?

[daring dragon]

Exactly

[meager galleon]

yeah maps/waystones is the endgame

those open when you finish act3 cruel

[grave crystal]

ima try to play hcssf on sorc without a build guide, i only have a basic understanding of the game but fuck it

[meager galleon]

gl

[grave crystal]

i feel like it would be more fun taking out external help

[fresh mulch]

i got quality on my staff what does it give me? cuz i look at the freezing shards that this staff gives me and cant find info about it

[simple igloo]

Do you have any issue with acrobatics in game? It seems like after I picked it I was completely slowed down like I dont have any movement speed bonus on my gear. Is that normal?

[daring dragon]

It's supposed to increase the quality of the skill on the staff but currently it's not working.

[fresh mulch]

so quality is useless on it? :C

[daring dragon]

As of now, yes.

[fresh mulch]

;C

[daring dragon]

It's early access

[meager galleon]

well just picking acrobatics shouldn't slow you

[simple igloo]

damn

just a random bug i Fear

[fresh mulch]

ik but still :C

[meager galleon]

are you using queen of the forest ?

[simple igloo]

yep

[meager galleon]

well thats the issue

that armor gives you speed per evasion

and acrobatics reduces your evasion singificantly

[simple igloo]

UNderstood. How silly I am

[simple igloo]

thanks bro, I was just freaking out on that

[pulsar spruce]

What was your evasion before you took acrobatics, Zeal?

[simple igloo]

actually plus 70% XD

[pulsar spruce]

What about the number?

[simple igloo]

let me check

[meager galleon]

with 70% its like around 13k

[simple igloo]

6957 wit hacrobatic on

[pulsar spruce]

Ahh. Ok, from what I've heard the sweet spot for taking across is 15-17k.
Oh, 6957 isn't too bad then.

[open nebula]

yay, finally got past act 1, and learned to make a mod too! whee

[meager galleon]

if he has 6900 with acrobatics, that means it was over 20k before

that means he lost at least 25% movement speed

from the reduced eva

[simple igloo]

well, the the real problem problem was just to figure out why I was slowed down slug like

[pulsar spruce]

Yeah that's annoying.

[simple igloo]

thanks both of you guys

I owe you one

[meager galleon]

dont worry, these silly mistakes wont ever stop happening

even after thousands of hours (verified personally on poe1)

[short cove]

why i still have energy shield?

[wraith ermine]

is it possible to equip 2 cast on minion death?

[sweet peak]

What is the easiest class to get through the camaign with?

[short cove]

rn? i think its ranger

and witch

[sweet peak]

ooo i have a choice ok

[exotic sierra]

anything ranged/projectile should be pretty easy

[sweet peak]

witch is the summoner though right?

[exotic sierra]

can be

[sweet peak]

this game hurts my brain lol i have too many options

[short cove]

my witch doing curse build

[exotic sierra]

that's a feature

[short cove]

welcome to poe

[sweet peak]

i wish i played more of the original game now

[vagrant anchor]

Arsonist witch or la ranger

[sweet peak]

guessing ranger is easier to gear?

[short cove]

... no

[vagrant anchor]

Witch. All you need to worry about is spirit and +minion on at least 1 gear

[short cove]

its witch have easier time to gear

ranger end game are hella expensive

[sweet peak]

oh really

[short cove]

i for one dont use wep and shield on my witch

[sweet peak]

i am not really worried about end game atm i've only got my monk to zone 2 so far

lol

[vagrant anchor]

Go witch. Literally can turn your brain off once you get 2+ arsonist

[short cove]

tho you can try legionare stack attribute stacking

cost me only a couple of exalts

[vagrant anchor]

Though Ranger is ludicrously faster

[short cove]

the cheap one that is

duh

[rocky coyote]

How much are lesser jeweller orbs worth?

[short cove]

less than 1 exalts

[sweet peak]

with my ranger i already found myself at a strength cap

[daring dragon]

You can check the prices of all currency items at the currency exchange ingame.

[dire solstice]

After sorceress, my next character will be ranger. Can't wait to get nerfed in a month or so

[sweet peak]

oh god the trading system on this game is so insane

makes me want to play SSF

why is it a website and not part of the damn game?

[flat mason]

u get used to it

its nice for multitasking though

[placid yarrow]

anyone rush leveling/Act

[sweet peak]

i've played 37 hours so far and i have achieved nothing lol

[heady quest]

Does circular teachings give double more ES if it’s with Gemling legionnaire(doble inherit from str)….

[vagrant anchor]

It's your first poe game right, there is a learning curve

[sweet peak]

i played the first poe for a short time i never got out of the first zone lol

[exotic sierra]

37 hours is nothing in poe. you've got lots of time to go before you start figuring things out.

[heady quest]

… anyone

[sweet peak]

let me revise my first question what is the best char for boss mobs?

[exotic sierra]

I remember someone saying that things that change the inherent bonuses of attributes don't work with the gemling doubling.

[dire solstice]

I have 100h and not even lvl 70 yet. Saw someone on Reddit today having multiple lvl 90+ characters, how much time people have

[placid yarrow]

anyone rush leveling/Act i pay orbs

[scenic salmon]

I feel everything one shoots bosses on accident

[sweet peak]

so your better than me and they are better than you

[heady quest]

I am literally saving 40-50 divas for that lol

[exotic sierra]

you can see if anyone is playing in the acts here https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1308714168576249887
or you can try checking public parties ingame
but we don't do services or trades on this server

[dire solstice]

How many people can play together in single world?

[scenic salmon]

Let's say gemling legionnaire cause I like Connor's builds

[vagrant anchor]

Campaign?

[exotic sierra]

up to 6 people can play together in parties, not sure if there is a limit on players per server

[sweet peak]

i have no idea what that is tbh

[daring dragon]

You have no idea what the campaign is?

[exotic sierra]

the campaign is where you're playing right now

[scenic salmon]

The mercenary

[dire solstice]

Damn that's a lot more than I thought, nice

[sweet peak]

oh shhh ofc i do

the merc with the bombs or what ever they are?

[scenic salmon]

No Merc with all the intelligence in the game and a wand

[sweet peak]

starting to think i should make my own build XD

[exotic sierra]

wait til you have a few hundred more hours in lol

[swift rapids]

are you able to somehow downgrade a spirit gem?

[exotic sierra]

learn the mechanics from experimentation and other builds for now

[sweet peak]

i am being pulled left and right when i try make an established one

[vagrant anchor]

Atleast beat the campaign with something stable before you do.

[exotic sierra]

only by making a new one

[dire solstice]

I did that first, then started to second guess everything I did and ended looking up stuff now anyways. Feels like everyone does way more dmg than I do

[swift rapids]

how can i do that?

[scenic salmon]

Choose any guide you like of course people have different build recommendations

[exotic sierra]

yea, you can't expect to make a coherent build when you haven't even tried mapping

[exotic sierra]

grab an uncut gem and use it to make a new copy of the skill

[sweet peak]

what would you recommend as a first build?

[exotic sierra]

the uncut gem has to match the level you want the skill to be

[scenic salmon]

Gem restrictions won't allow it
You have to change that in options iirc

[swift rapids]

oh yea that would be problematic since i get lvl 14 ones , need like level 10-11

[vagrant anchor]

Who do you like?

[sweet peak]

all i got lol

[lament plinth]

Anyone tried using Witch skills on Sorceress? Will she have Witch voice lines / dialogues?

How about other classes using another class' skills?

[dire solstice]

I heard Witch is OP so I chose to play as Electrician instead, just to be called OP by others anyways and also 46% of players doing the same class as me

[hearty tundra]

I might be softlocked out of the Ancient Vows questline. I inserted the first piece of the relic into the thing and zoned out. I have the second piece but I can't find the place to put it. It's not spawning...

[exotic sierra]

they're asking about how to make a lower level skill, pretty sure that option isn't gonna stop them

[hearty tundra]

(it's in Valley of the Titans)

[normal ibex]

pretend its single player game and that most other gamers are actually assholes, and just have fun 😛

[scenic salmon]

Why not? I'm using a ranger with monk skills
You can do whatever
No voice lines though

[fresh mulch]

im doing chaos trial and i have room with soul cores to find i did it few times already but now i cant find them
bug?

[sweet peak]

do you think i should continue with my ranger?

[lament plinth]

Ohh so no voice lines. Thank you!

[vagrant anchor]

Which class do you enjoy playing the most out of the 3.

[exotic sierra]

any skill can be used on any class as long as you make sure you can meet the attribute requirements for the required weapon. the voice lines are specific to the characters not the skills or weapons.

[scenic salmon]

Sure
I'll recommend ranged classes for starting so either ranger or witch

[sweet peak]

ranger unless i encounter a boss

[vagrant anchor]

Are you using orb and spikes for bosses?

[lament plinth]

Alright. I am already impressed by the amount of small details the game has. So I wondered if they had these voice lines despite using other class skills too lol

[normal ibex]

are you using a doublestring bow? you should be at that level

[sweet peak]

still using this

[dire solstice]

I never thought about using other class weapons, used some witch spells at the start but went with full spells of my own class eventually. Just assumed each class is best with their designated things

[frozen vapor]

Hi ,i started as ranger, currently in act 3 , lvl 34, just struggle that i don't really have any damage at all ,any suggestions?

[normal ibex]

theres no way thats a level 28 screenshot

[vagrant anchor]

@sweet peak Use rod and soceress orb for the boss.

Put the orb down and spam rod. EZ clap

[scenic salmon]

Some class are more restrictive gemling though can do any build in the game decently

[sweet peak]

the guide only says i have to get to 14

[rancid lintel]

act 2 norms level 28 lightning arrow , res all capped besides chaos about 712 health but i feel like im either not doing enough dmg or maybe i'm just weak should i be looking to up evasion or try get gear with energy shield?

[clever geode]

At the waypoint?

The place to put it is roght by the waypoint

[sweet peak]

I really wish i had some IRL mates that played games with me now

[high light]

Does having fire damage to attacks and lightning damage to attacks automatically grant ignite and electrocute?

[sweet peak]

I remember doing LAN battles on games in the past

[normal ibex]

if you had friends youd just level up faster knowing even less than you do now, following a guide is hurting you tbh

[clever geode]

Yes chance
But make sure the skill does not have support gem that remove any chance

[vagrant anchor]

"Following a guide is hurting you"

So true.

[high light]

i meant quiver/ring

[sweet peak]

all my mates have had kids now... no point even asking them lol

[high light]

if I have quiver/ring with fire and lightning dmg to attacks does that mean I automatically have ignite and electrocute?

[dire solstice]

I had much easier time second round with Cruel, however this viper poison boss was unkillable for me, had to summon friend to kill her. The only boss that was much harder for me than the first time

[clever geode]

Yeah

[clever geode]

Also asking twice dont help

Just check you skill

[sweet peak]

think i might just fuck this game off

i cba to learn it

[clever geode]

If it has fire dmg it has chance to ignite
If it has lightning dmg it got chance to shock

[normal ibex]

half this channel will attest to the fact ive been in here bitching about half the bosses being unkillable, annoying as it is, they arent

[clever geode]

[high light]

what should I look at exactly?

[lament plinth]

Why do some armor have gem sockets in them? For extra skills?

[clever geode]

Open your skill

And check the dmg

[normal ibex]

all i ever wanted was a shoulder, everyone here just gives you a ropadmap to your bootstraps

[clever geode]

? Rune socket u mean

[normal ibex]

😛

[clever geode]

[sweet peak]

might be back in a day or 2 guys cya

[hearty tundra]

i'll check

[high light]

it has ignite but no electrocute ?

[clever geode]

https://tenor.com/view/trump-wave-trump-bye-trump-trump-mcdonalds-mcdonalds-wave-gif-8236345955715528534

[hearty tundra]

aint no way i missed it

[rancid lintel]

what kinda stats should i prio on a helmet as a lightning arrow deadeye?

[clever geode]

?

Electrocute and shock is 2 different thing

[dire solstice]

She was unkillable by me

[high light]

neither is listed on ailments, just the ignite

[clever geode]

Electrocute is a special one u need aupport gem for it

Show dmg type

[high light]

i did in the screenshot above

[clever geode]

Shock dont show chance

U got ignite chance

Cold is buildup so no chance

Chill is there

Lightning is shock
Electrocute is support/unique glove

Any other question?

Did i miss any?

[high light]

so in the current situation this will give me 45% ?

shock + chill + ignite?

[clever geode]

If u apply all effect

[normal ibex]

https://i.imgur.com/v3uhfOG.png

[sweet peak]

i will be on here later for advise... i need to chill out for a bit

[normal ibex]

fuck the bot, everyone here uses worse langage than jack ass ffs

[clever geode]

U got
Ignite
Chill
Frozen
Poison
Shock
Thats 15%×5

[clever geode]

I assume its the word start with j and ends with s

[normal ibex]

yes, the least offensive cuss used here in the past 2 hours 😛

[clever geode]

Like what

[normal ibex]

really?

seriously?

[clever geode]

I am asking

[normal ibex]

...

[clever geode]

Give me an example that was said cause i probably overlooked it

[normal ibex]

if you cant find a worse word than 'jacka$$' in the text you literally repliaed to, not sure where to take this convo lol

[clever geode]

So u get it?
But then u have to apply all the effect to max the potential

[dire solstice]

Balbala was probably the worst boss first run, needed help there as well

[clever geode]

So
If i say fuck me i used div instead of ex
Its bad?

[dire solstice]

But this viper Aztec woman was surprisingly hard second time, considering I killed her first run with much weaker character

[clever geode]

Really depends on build

If u can dodge

[normal ibex]

i havent been back to balbala yet, i spent all my annoyed time last night with the main boss

[dire solstice]

I have no hp so all I have is dodge, but there's a limit how much you can spam something

[normal ibex]

i think sometimes and especially on bosses that one shot me early, i appraoch the fight again just trying to survive, not attacking

why dont you have health? is as if not more important than resistances

[dire solstice]

Frost wolf probably hardest and most fun boss so far for me, top 3 at least. Also has awesome soundtrack

[mental horizon]

Guys how do i make premium stash tab public?on ps5 to sell something?

[clever geode]

Right click it

Ah psn

Then select the tab

Options or aoemthing

[normal ibex]

its still going to be stick + dpad same as xbox controller

[mental horizon]

And theres 4 options

[clever geode]

This boss keep bug for me

I just keep getting stuck at the shield

[clever geode]

Picture

I dont know what you see

https://tenor.com/view/ken-jeong-cant-see-this-funny-gif-14446155

[clever geode]

No o

On the tab itself

[clever geode]

U selected the top right option

[mental horizon]

How I’m trying to move up

It just doesn’t get there

[clever geode]

How do you select whoch tab to see

[mental horizon]

L1 r1

[clever geode]

Select the first tab and show me

[mental horizon]

It’s on pick

[clever geode]

Then try buttons like l3 r3 or something

Idk i dont use psn

Or select button like how u pick stuff up

[quaint pivot]

Is warrior decent? I was considering trying warrior but I've been hearing a lot of bad things about it

[mental horizon]

Yeah it’s probably r3 but it’s just doesn’t do anything

[clever geode]

Good bad depend on how u play it

Lesser people play it

[mental horizon]

Maybe bc i didn’t finish act 3?

[clever geode]

Nono

Thats not it

Try the 4 buttons? On the right

[vagrant anchor]

Such a non answer.

[meager galleon]

its not that warrior is unplayable or anything

[clever geode]

R3 and left

[clever geode]

If u play a good build then its ok

[meager galleon]

its just not as great in comparison to the other classes, due to multiple non ideal balance things applying to warriror at the same time

[clever geode]

But some people dont want to follow guide

[mental horizon]

Yup

Amd then?

[clever geode]

So its a yes but no answer depends on who you are

[clever geode]

What came out

[mental horizon]

Screen with colors

[clever geode]

Yes picture

[clever geode]

Due to the limited skills warrior have rn

[rancid lintel]

what stats do i prioritise getting on a helmet for a deadaye lightin ranger

[clever geode]

Iirc that says public on the left side

[clever geode]

Resist

Maybe some rarity

[rancid lintel]

i've already got res capped besides chaos

[clever geode]

Then hp mana eva

Stats

[mental horizon]

Cool it works thank u

[clever geode]

If howa then int

[rancid lintel]

is it better to get evasion rating or % evasion

[clever geode]

Just see total eva

[mental horizon]

The size of screen dk hot to change it,cant see some thing in corners 😂

[clever geode]

Dont matter

[clever geode]

? Lol

[clever geode]

Example u get 1000% eva but end up eva on that gear is 100

[high light]

i believe I do, thank you

[clever geode]

Its still 100

Those +eva or %eva on gear are effect just on the gear itself

Not global

Unless stated

So it do not matter if u get % eva or flat eva
Just check total on gear

[clever geode]

Also are u going crit?

Maybe accuracy if you added the node that make it scale dmg

[rancid lintel]

im not too sure i'm following a fubgun guide

[green light]

in poe trade how do i make it show combined total resistance, so i dont want search for a specific element but i want the combined to be a specific minimum

[clever geode]

Any of your node adds crit

If fubgun guide that i rmb i dont think so
