as I said its entirely separate from acts 1-3 normal

[south sparrow]

got it

[south sparrow]

So how does Delwyn know your character?

[weary osprey]

he knows your character is haunted

[hybrid star]

delirium fog dude entered the chat

[south sparrow]

oh, if i was on weed, you'd know it.

[south sparrow]

I'm using this galvanic shards build and you are supposed to shock enemies bosses/big guys with galvanic shards then hit them with shockburst rounds, but simply running around dropping artillery ballista is more effective for many targets. Also works for mobs.

The whole shock/switch thing is kinda low percentage.

Also ends up making you eat a bunch of dmg trying to make your shock count.

It's supposed to be an intermediate strat, before endgame though.

[hardy sun]

It's too bad they nerfed the bow shocking ability, that was my preferred method. Shocking via galv is kinda low chance, takes a lot of hits in my experience.

In a different build I'm currently playing, I'm using the spear leaping shock ability. I add crit to it, create shocking ground on crit. Seems fairly reliable if you have a tangletongue for the high crit chance

[south sparrow]

Yeah, hopefully it starts feeling better. It does do a lot of dmg but it's not consistent or usually convenient.

[blazing stream]

Anyone willing to help me through the campaign on dawn of the hunt

[coral blade]

https://pobb.in/h0VUe8X9YKPo ok gang just got into act 3, ive got a couple hundred hours of experience but ive felt my DMG drop way off

the plan is to just spam fireball proj which is why i took the "chance to fire 2 additional projectiles"

and ill eventually grab demonform as well, but i cant sustain 10 stacks right now

but like i said my dmg fell off very hard and im wondering what i should spend my first jewelers on as well as any changes that i should make to my tree

[hybrid star]

homebrew build

[coral blade]

yuppers

i saw the proj nodes for spells and i was like "man thsi would be REALLY funny"

the goal is wildshards + scatter shot + 50% chance for spells to fire 2 additional proj

then hold down fire ball and profit (probably not)

[hybrid star]

first thing I believe a wand + focus combo is always better than a staff

[coral blade]

i assumed so 😔

[hybrid star]

and you should find +level to spell

[coral blade]

i actually had a +2, but the current staff was a tooltip dps up

so i threw the +2 in the stash

[hybrid star]

sure, check your tooltip

[coral blade]

i do know that spell scaling rn is pretty much reliant on + levels

OH the reason i was using a staff is because i wanted to use dusk vigil

because idk ive gota bunch of proj why not throw EF in there

[coral blade]

ok yeah currently my +2 staff is worse than this cast speed/spell dmg staff

[hybrid star]

yeah I mean you can trust your tooltip

I think you went for the additional projectile nodes too early?

[coral blade]

probably

[quartz crow]

t2 supp gem is power spike for act 3

ricochet probably fine for fireball

[coral blade]

what about ice wall?

i would like to keep fire wall but ice wall is just so good mechanically

[hybrid star]

are you on trade? I think you can buy a few gears with life regen.

and I don't think Bringer of Flame is doing much here, you are dealing fire damage anyway

[coral blade]

nah i decided to do this char on SSF

for the heck of it

[quartz crow]

I think demon form nulls your weapons

[coral blade]

it helps the 20% of phys from srs

but yeah demon form bricks weapons

i took bringer beacuse it had the least downside until i figured more out

probably shouldve taken hound tbh

ill stay on the look out for regen gear

then make the demon swap

[hybrid star]

you mean the SRS's un-converted physical damage

[coral blade]

what

does the srs conversion not WORK>?? ?

lmao

[hybrid star]

I mean they convert 70% of phys to fire, you took Bringer to utilize 30% phys into ignite?

[coral blade]

i was mostly joking

i took bringer because i couldnt sustain demon, altered flesh was useless, pyro pact was useless, and so was grinning immolation,

i also didnt realize that if im ONLY doing fire then all my dmg already contributes

[hybrid star]

people usually take that skill to ignite with a cold skill or something

[coral blade]

i just swapped points over to demon form

ill spam flask until i have proper gear

[quartz crow]

I don't think the return on df is worth for earlier in the game

something like wand or staff with bringer of flame and maybe cold snap

[coral blade]

but the ROLL DISTANCE
hold on im cooking

[hybrid star]

DF is better than that staff for sure

[coral blade]

it feels like it

why does this shit have a CD

oh i can socket vitality for free

WAIT I CANT, DID THEY FUCKING PATCH THAT

it doesnt do anything

[hybrid star]

you need 20 spirit

[coral blade]

i turned my SRS off and my regen didnt change so i assume it doesnt work

[waxen osprey]

can I add quality to an item after corrupting it?

[elder ember]

no

you cant do anything to an item after corrupting

[lament stone]

you cant use currency items on a corrupted item

you can still do stuff like levelling up a gem or socketing runes

[supple garden]

hey so i just got to the manor in ogham and i keep dying like instantly to almost anything, is there a reason and/or a solution for this?

[dusky burrow]

low cold resistance and/or low life probably

#2┃looking-for-group

[trim turret]

Life and resistances are the most important stats on your gear.

[azure lava]

A sapphire ring and a sapphire charm will make that fight way easier

[lament stone]

is it geonor or the manor in general

if its those enemies with the blood pools all you can do is avoid them or have high enough life that you can survive being in the pools for long enough to get out

[azure lava]

Also having an up-to-date life flask with two beneficial mods goes a long way for the entire campaign

Your life flask is a massive defensive boon

Also movement speed on boots is super valuable. If boots don't have movement speed, they're not worth equipping unless all you have are 0% movement speed boots

[glossy python]

Life Regeneration is a form of Life Recovery but
Life Recovery from flasks doesn't count as Regeneration, right?

[twin terrace]

So there has been a complication

I was able to get an uncut spirit gem

But I have 0 spirit

How to get

[glossy python]

How to gain Spirit?

1. There's 3 quests in the campaign.

2. There's gear that grants it

3. There's a few passive nodes that give a tiny percent, some nodes that increase reservation efficiency for Heralds, and Tactician has nodes that increase reservation efficiency

1. The 3 quests that grant Spirit are in Act 1, Act 3, and Act 3 Cruel. In Act 1 you get it in Freythorn, the 8th area (accessed through the Hunting Grounds after the Graveyard) after beating the boss (King In The Mists). In Act 3/Act 3 Cruel, you get it from the Azak Bog, the 5th area you encounter.

First 2 quests grant you 30 each, 3rd quest grants you 40

2. Scepters are the easiest way to get Spirit, since they come with Spirit as an implicit modifier. All Scepters grant Spirit.

Then there's Solar Amulets which grant you 10-15 Spirit as a implicit modifier.

And then it can appear as a Prefix on Chest Armours and Amulets.

And then there's unique items that can grant it.

3. The spirit % nodes are up in the left hand side, and the herald nodes are in the lower left and the lower far right

[azure lava]

Correct. All regen is recovery, but not all recovery is regen

[azure lava]

Infernalist and invoker have nodes that grant spirit

[glossy python]

ooh

[rough mauve]

Anyone know why my game keeps pausing and then unpausing randomly

[azure lava]

Do you have another controller plugged in that is getting pressed?

[rough mauve]

No

[azure lava]

Then unless it's a faulty controller I have no idea

[rough mauve]

The controller im using is brand new but the games only does this shit when I enter fights

I checked to see if it's an issue with my Internet but that's fine aswell

[twin terrace]

Can I equip a scepter in my 2nd slot and gain spirit?

[azure lava]

Nothing in your unequipped weapon set provides you with any stats. If you mean your offhand slot, then yes, that would count as equipped

[twin terrace]

Like the one that says II and goes on your back

[azure lava]

That's weapon set II and does nothing unless you have that set equipped

[twin terrace]

Which quests grant spirit

[azure lava]

King in the mists a1n, bog witch a3n, and bog witch a3c

30/30/40 spirit, respectively, for 100 total

[livid fiber]

can someone help me kill Viper pls

[azure lava]

Sure thing, first off I'd recommend giving #1328202289755983932 a read if you haven't already. It should help you get way tankier and take advantage of the resources at your disposal.

Viper does lots of physical hits that inflict poison, so if you have a poison removal charm it may help. Movement speed on boots is extra important here. Dodging is everything.

Chaos resistance is hard to find by act 3 normal, but if you have any it might be worth equipping. But, as always, life is very important. Viper doesn't do any elemental damage so if you can swap a piece with high ele resistances and low life with a high life piece, it might be worth it for this fight.

[dusky burrow]

and #2┃looking-for-group

[plain saddle]

What does the guides mean by twink leveling?

[elder ember]

it means using currency from your first character to buy items that are very strong for low level characters. usually unique items that are weak in endgame

[queen heath]

Is there a way to select "auto compare items" ? Instead of pressing shift everytime

[stray lance]

Anyone ever play this build? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ctUwqF_jWBU

Is there also anyway to make it better if someone is willing to invest a lot more currency into it?

[south sparrow]

Not sure what you mean by pausing. But when I start a fight with lots of enemies, my cpu gets maxed and it's very stop and go for awhile.

[glossy python]

There's always a way, until you have perfect gear

[stray lance]

I think I have pretty decent gear im just not sure what I could do to make it even more tanky feeling. I was looking to see if maybe there were some uniques I should be using or maybe need more life regen. Im kind of stuck on the armor rating when I go to buy gear. I probably shouldn't be as concerned with that?

[trim turret]

How are your resists and life? Those are more important than armor a lot of the time.

Armor only protects against physical hits.

That's also an endgame build so you're either in the wrong channel here or trying to follow an endgame build way too early.

[stray lance]

Well My resists are at 90%

I think my block chance is 51% and my armor is 54%

i took some block chance nodes out and put in some damage dealing nodes instead but not sure if that was the right move

my life is at almost 3700

[glossy python]

Is Gloamgown tooltip bugged? I'm wearing it and it says 10 seconds to start recharging, but I gear switch back and forth in my hideout and it starts recharging that gap way sooner than that

[azure lava]

What are on your weapon sets you're swapping between?

[glossy python]

just switching between 2h and focus

i tested it in act 1 and it seems like it takes 10 seconds to recharge sadly

looking at other people talking about it, they seem to also concurr that it's bugged

it's supposed to change your base recharge start to 10 seconds, meaning there should be a different effect than if it said "your recharge starts at 10 seconds" or some wording like that

so it should still be modified by stats, but isn't

oh well, extreme amount of defense still

[blissful obsidian]

Someone for leveling im 24 atm

[dusky burrow]

#2┃looking-for-group

[odd bolt]

Can anyone help me with Viper Act 3 pls? IGN BowGoesTwing

[dusky burrow]

#2┃looking-for-group

[stray lance]

Were you asking me what weapon sets I am swapping? If that was to me I am not currently doing any weapon swaps. I did see some guys on youtube doing it but I wasn't sure why they were doing it and they didn't really explain.

[tired light]

is it just bugged to show the 'ascent to power' quest again when going through cruel?

says to talk to zarka but she has nothin to say

[south sparrow]

Yeah, I think it's just bugged in cruel as people are always asking about that.

[tired light]

so when can we do it again in cruel for more ascendancy points?

[south sparrow]

I think you can get more in act 3

[lament stone]

you need a level 60+ djinn barya or level 65+ inscribed ultimatum

so pretty much not until after the campaign

unless you get lucky enough to drop a djinn barya in one of the last few zones

[south sparrow]

So I have this and it says it will grant .... But since I've already done the first one I won't actually get skill points right?

[lament stone]

youre intended to use the quest inscribed ultimatum to get your 2nd ascension

[south sparrow]

The wiki says chaos ascension 2 is area level 55+

[lament stone]

OR any other quest token

"any other ascension 1" is incorrect

[lament stone]

its supposed to be this

[south sparrow]

I also have a couple of these. If I were to fail the quest one, would these work?

[lament stone]

no

but also if you fail the quest token it doesnt get consumed

only the quest tokens work like that

[south sparrow]

good to know. I've been holding off since I wasn't sure.

[south sparrow]

Sacrifice Monsters: Kill enough enemies within Blood Circles to fill up the altar and progress. Does that mean you need to be in Blood Circle or Monster needs to be?

I have 'regenerate 0.25% max life per second' which should be 0.025 * 872 = 21.8 per second. But I''m only getting 1 per tic. I think a tic is around 1/2 second.

[weary osprey]

move the decimal point over

[south sparrow]

I did 0.25 > 0.025

oh it's 0.0025?

even then it should be 2.18 per second.

[spice pagoda]

If you're getting about 1 every half second, that's about 2.18 per second

[spice pagoda]

Monster

[south sparrow]

yeah, thanks.

[strong mural]

is there a bug in dawn of the hunt that wont allow you to leave camp in act 1? i cant join clearfell, i changed servers as well

[south sparrow]

I just went to act1 and was able to go to clearfell from camp.

[strong mural]

thanks for checking. idk whats going on, i talked to all the npcs

[south sparrow]

can you teleport there?

[strong mural]

found out why. im doing a ranger spear build. i got to act 1, equipped a spear and deleted my default skill gem. i never assigned a new one becase the first 4 are trash. but it wanted me to have a skill to leave

[south sparrow]

This is the first time I've seen this. Gear drops with runes equipped; is that normal?

[weary osprey]

from rogue exiles

[south sparrow]

I honestly don't know where I got it. I just re-went through riverway in mean?-mode.

*riverbank

[south sparrow]

Is there somewhere, where you can see your accuracy stats?

[hardy sun]

I usually look at tooltip info for an offensive ability, there's a section for accuracy, 2m, 5m, 9m

[hardy sun]

Leave camp? Or go into the camp? From that initial zone, after you kill the Miller boss, you must take a point in skill tree before you can enter the camp. You'll be blocked from entering camp until you confirm 1 point in skill tree. If you're stuck in camp, that's a different problem I'm unaware of

[south sparrow]

ah, nice. ty

so if 'chance to hit' is > 100% does that mean everything hits?

[hardy sun]

As long as there isn't another mechanic in that equation. You could become blinded, enemy could have some kind of evasion buff, proximal tangibility etc

[south sparrow]

i have amazon chance to hit, so can go over 100%

ok and that's "estimated" so I assume they are estimating typical monster evasion at that level?

[dusky burrow]

correct

and it doesnt factor in stuff like you blinding them

[south sparrow]

i don't use flash grenade anymore but might not be bad idea. actually, mostly run around dropping artillery ballista. seems broken, and isn't even what this build is supposed to be.

[hardy sun]

Artillery and siege are very strong for campaign

[south sparrow]

i just discovered it on my own, so it's legit 🙂

[hardy sun]

They drop off for end game though, needs very strong xbow

[south sparrow]

yeah, i'm doing galvanic shards build so I assume that get's stronger.

and sockburst rounds

[hardy sun]

Galv is commonly paired with shockburst. Galv clears trash mobs, shockburst for bosses

If you can get a strong shock magnitude, shockburst does good damage

[south sparrow]

but i'm saying at this point, artillery is really better. shockburst does a lot of damage but takes a long time to set up and usually makes you take damage.

i do use it, but don't focus on it

[hybrid star]

you can try a bow swap and stormcaller arrow to shock

[hardy sun]

Siege cascade is very fun too. Great for campaign trash mobs, add artillery and it's lots of explosions.

[south sparrow]

might be worth trying. but swapping sounds, ugg. I use voltaic mark then shards, till shock then shockburst

i assume this build will do better shock eventually

[south sparrow]

Is there a build with that?

[hybrid star]

nah galvanic shards do small hits, means less chance to shock

[south sparrow]

well, why is it on maxroll, lol

should I transition to another build?

[hybrid star]

it's just a weapon swap, so you can shock almost guaranteed

[south sparrow]

ok, I currently swap for leap slam, but I hardly use that.

so you are saying a bow and gem is stormcaller?

[hybrid star]

yeah bow quiver, with phys and lightning damage, add shock supports to stormcaller

[south sparrow]

Ok, i'll keep an eye out for bows and quivers

[hybrid star]

you can also use blink for a movement skill on weapon swap

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/ben-deadeye-lightning-crossbow?weaponSet=set2
Ben has a guide, you can set weapon passives to be more effective

[half moon]

Does raging spirits scale off flat damage like iron ring? The tooltip suggests so.

[hybrid star]

iron ring doesn't say "minions" or "allies" so it's only adding to you

[half moon]

tyvm

[south sparrow]

I'm pretty afraid of deviating from the guide I'm using in terms of passives.

[hybrid star]

just a reference

[south sparrow]

but that tree looks pretty similar

except late game it completely shifts and goes to energy shield/leech.

In any case. I'll try the crossbow shock strat and let you know if I like it.

[hardy sun]

Stormcaller was my preferred method during 0.1 when I played galv/shockburst. Stormcaller got nerfed but still may be best chances for shocking. Weapon swap allows for big magnitude nodes and main weapon goes for big dps

Fun setup

[south sparrow]

How does finns currency exchange work? How do you know what is a reasonable exchange?

For example, what should I offer for a greater jeweller's orb?

Is this just a random npc trade or is it actually trading with players?

[final geyser]

It's trading with other players.

So, all of the prices it presents are based on what others are posting trades for.

[south sparrow]

No one is selling greater jeweller's orb. How do you remove the "i have" item?

[final geyser]

You can just swap it to something else. Generally, the topmost currency items in the list will be under the 'Popular' category, meaning people are often using these to trade for the other item.

So, if nobody is selling a Greater Jeweller's Orb for the currency you've put in, swap it to one of the Popular currency items that you have.

[south sparrow]

Is there a way to see what other people are wanting?

[queen heath]

Is there a way to toggle auto compare, like in Last Epoch ?

[south sparrow]

How did the Count know that Sin had the Seed?

[spice pagoda]

The lady told him. We don't know why she knows or really what she's up to yet

[spice pagoda]

Core currencies are exalt, chaos, divine, and mirror, in order of increasing value. Mirror is debatably not a core currency because it's so valuable. Generally you can buy/sell anything for some number of one of those

[south sparrow]

So it doesn't seem that you can see what the 'prices' are in this Finn's exchange. So you just sorta gota guess?

[south sparrow]

The Executioner is no joke.

[final geyser]

No, you pick a set of currencies to trade for and if there are any posted trades, it automatically fills in the values for you

And I already mentioned that the Popular list shows you what people usually trade the currency item for.

[south sparrow]

So if it fills in the values is it supposed to trade right away? Because I did that and it didn't trade it.

For example I want a greater jewellers. I clicked on the "i have" and it showed stuff, I clicked orb of augmentation and it put in 1. But no trade.

[final geyser]

Then nobody is currently exchanging those two currency items

For reference, a Greater Jeweller's is vastly more valuable than an Orb of Augmentation

[south sparrow]

ok

yeah, i assume so

just trying to figure out how this works. I guess it's not super active.

[final geyser]

It's very active, just that most people will be using things like Exalted Orbs, Divines, etc, for trading instead

[south sparrow]

But could I tell if anyone is selling a greater jewellers for any price?

[final geyser]

Just select Exalted Orbs instead and it'll show you, Exalted Orbs and Chaos Orbs are some of the most common currencies for trading, so most other currency items can be bought or sold for them

[south sparrow]

It doesn't show. It just changes jewelers 13 exalted 4

[final geyser]

So that's the ratio people are trading them at, you can see the Market Ratio above the numbers, and if hover over it, it'll show a bunch of other ratios that the item has been listed at.

If you want to buy at that ratio, just select both values to lock them in and press 'Place Order'

[south sparrow]

but it never shows individual offers?

[final geyser]

No

[south sparrow]

what does it mean if the amount is red?

[final geyser]

Assuming it's in the 'I have' section, then you don't have enough of that item

[south sparrow]

So why was the count digging a hole?

[final geyser]

He was digging up the bodies buried underneath the Manor.

[south sparrow]

to prove his bloodline?

[final geyser]

And feed the Beast, yes

[lofty gate]

whats a good starter character i got poe 2 today

[lament stone]

anyone trying to speed run me through the campaign lol ill pay, dont feel like doing it again

But also, you're able to use any weapon and skill on any class, so even if you decide you don't like a given weapon, you can try out another one.

[lofty gate]

ok thx

[pseudo forum]

yo guys, is it still not possible to change Venom Crypt Vial choice?

[wild hedge]

How can i search for elemental resistances, but overall (uh, idk how to explain it).

For example, i want a belt with 70% elemental resistances, it could be any of the 3, for example 30% fire, 25% cold and 15% lightning.

[warm jay]

idk if you already got an answer but the trade site has weighted sum v2 for exactly this

v1 works similarly but idk the exact difference and was told v2 is slightly better

so tldr weighted sum, set weight to 1 and minimum to 70% for the whole group

will show belts with 70 res total

[wild hedge]

Hmm...

I see!!

I think i'm doing something wrong, this doesn't work

[lime fern]

Put it as a weighted sum for each ele res, in the min box above the one you've typed write 60, make each of the ele res have a weight of 1

[wild hedge]

Ohhhhh

Okay, that worked

Thanks!

Man, that's amazing

[lime fern]

I like using the count and weighted sums together

Lots of nice little ways to search for all sorts

[wild hedge]

What does count do?

[warm jay]

yea you already got the idea (pc wasn't on before) but picture of your exact example would be this

[lime fern]

Just makes a list of mods you want to be on the item, and you set a count of how many of those mods you want

[wild hedge]

Ohh

[warm jay]

for example you can put in all 4 types of flat and say you want 2

[lime fern]

^

[wild hedge]

💀 That's OP af

[warm jay]

that seems to be the most common use I've found for count this season

[lime fern]

I'm thinking of poe1 tbh

Idol searching was the biggest bane of my existence during phrecia

[warm jay]

I never got into poe1 but I used it for sekhemas relics which I'd assume is similar ish

and that was nice

[lime fern]

Yeh 100% the same

[warm jay]

was sniping 1d relics for like 20 ex

[queen heath]

Is there an item that can remove a specified affix on an item, or do you have to remove a random affix everytime ?

[elder ember]

you can use an omen to remove either a suffix or prefix

or use an omen of whittling to remove the loweset ilvl mod

[amber island]

do people still use Poeninja to make look at poe2 builds

[queen heath]

Thanks p1ngers

Is there a use for all the uncut skills gems you're not going to use ? Maybe merge them into higher tier skill gems or something else ?

[elder ember]

you can use lower level gems for skills you dont have enough stats for

like some spells

or marks

[prime lion]

For some reason i wana already plan my build for a monk Chayula build ( leveling) version i dont get something here . First most skills are higher tier skills and this guides say they assume im already level 30+ what build should i do than if i dont meet the requirements

And the website is maxroll .

And theres no updated Chayula ascendency build guide on maxroll

[elder ember]

just use whatever

tempest flurry

[prime lion]

What about the passives than if i just wait until 30 i might get a new problem and that is resetting my passives

[elder ember]

just get stuff that gives you damage

worry about your endgame build later

you can respec

[prime lion]

Alright but is it still costly

Like poe 1

[elder ember]

its mildly expensive

but once you get into maps its cheap

[prime lion]

Sheesh lol

Alright

[elder ember]

you can still try to path near where you want to go for endgame build but just pick stuff thats nearby so your respec is easier

[twin terrace]

So entering act 3 now but I'm only lvl32 is it recommended to grind up some older act maps for levels first?

[final geyser]

Level 32 is perfectly fine, you can also just go out of your way to kill more enemies if you feel like you need more experience.

[twin terrace]

Act 2 boss was absolutely brutal for me

I can take mobs fine but bosses are becoming too difficult

[final geyser]

Jamanra is generally considered a challenge for many players, though it's also one boss where learning it tends to be a way bigger help (outside of kill speed) than raw stats. The subsequent bosses should be far easier.

[tough grove]

I have a build I am following where the build shows body armour that uses INT and Dex. No where on the tree is there dexs in the build until lvl 61. This is a campain specific build I was looking at also. How do I combat this problem? I am running witch going into Lich. Link to build: https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/essence-drain-lich-build-guide#changelog-header

[dusky burrow]

check the pob

[dusky burrow]

does he not use a pure int body in every set

[queen heath]

Can you guys explain difficulty modes ? I started a new game and I think I'm playing in normal mode, although I'm not 100% positive. Should I play in a harder difficulty instead? Will it give better loot ?

I'm only lvl 34

[dusky burrow]

there are no actual difficulty modes

there is "cruel difficulty" which is not actually a difficulty and just a repeat of the first three acts as a placeholder before you get to endgame

there's also self-imposed challenges like ssf (no trade, no party) and hardcore that you could have chosen but dont give any bonuses (only challenge) and generally aren't recommended for new players anyway

so just keep playing, you're fine

[queen heath]

Oh ok so the cruel difficulty is just NG+ ?

[dusky burrow]

well, it only repeats once

because it's just a placeholder for the levels inbetween acts 1-3 and the endgame

they will be replaced by real acts 4-6 as the game is developed

[queen heath]

Oh ok I see, thanks for the answer

[mortal trail]

Can someone explain how the spirit works with cast on freeze? my max spirit is 60 and im using both which is supposed to cost 120

[lament stone]

are they applied to different weapon sets?

[mortal trail]

I have both applied on both weapon sets but mainly use this one, the other set is just shield charge to move around the map

[trim turret]

Ok, so basically you just need more spirit to run both?

[mortal trail]

both are on, basically im wondering if cast on freeze is actually working

[trim turret]

What do you have linked to it that should be triggering?

[mortal trail]

going to use comet but don't have a lvl 11 skill gem yet

does it need to have a meta skill to work?

[lament stone]

what skill do you have socketed into it?

[trim turret]

That looks like you only have 60 total spirit. In which case you can't run both skills.

[mortal trail]

just impetus, going to run comet when I get a lvl 11 skill gem

[mortal trail]

but u see where I can turn it on?

the both of them at once

[lament stone]

im pretty sure that one of those is only applying to your second weapon set

[mortal trail]

just confused about cast on freeze

[lament stone]

where you have a sceptre equipped, which gives you enough spirit, but only in your seconds weapon set

also if you have no skill socketed it doesnt do anything at all

you need to have a spell socketed for it to actually do anything

[mortal trail]

gotcha, do u have lvl 11 skill gem by chance?

[desert sedge]

Rule 6. No trading, begging, asking for 'loans', giveaways, tips for services, etc for any game. See #trading for alternatives.

[lament stone]

just cut a random gem to socket for now if you really want to socket it

but that doesnt change the fact that you cant use it because you dont have enough spirit

[mortal trail]

well if I had comet then I would use that on cast on freeze instead of the armour

Don't really need the armour bc I keep stalling with freeze

[trim turret]

You get 100 spirit just from the campaign and you probably want a defensive spirit skill also.

[mortal trail]

using arctic armour rn

[trim turret]

I know, and I'm saying dont dump it just to run cast on freeze. Especially if you don't have cast on freeze properly set up yet.

[golden delta]

Good evening, I am looking for a PL for the ancestry and can you tell me the price? There are two of us, thank you.

[trim turret]

We dont offer carry services here.

[dusky burrow]

i think they're asking how much it would cost to make a private league

[trim turret]

Oh I thought it was Power Level.

[tough grove]

Sorry for the delay. If you look at the helmet, Gauntlets, Boots. All of them are dex int or boots str int Excetp for the chest armor

[dusky burrow]

those just look like random leveling bases

your focus during campaign is life and resists (and ms on boots) not the es/armour/eva

[tough grove]

I see. So not intentional. Didnt know if they did it due to poor survivability

Sub stats > Mian stat?

[dusky burrow]

there's nothing that says the armour/eva/es is the "main stat"

you have to figure out what's important based off of what it actually does

[tough grove]

I see

[dusky burrow]

as for attr you just get int mostly (because your skills need int) and then grab dex/str if there's something you dropped with a lot of resists or something that needs some dex/str

[tough grove]

Gotcha! I have been trying to focus resistances, Max life for survivability on gear. I see where I went wrong focused on the wrong thing.

[dusky burrow]

depends on what you add, seems it starts a 120 points (12 USD) for 10 days/10 players and goes up from there, see https://www.pathofexile.com/private-leagues/create/poe2

[dusky burrow]

well yeah, it is correct to focus on res/life

more important than whether it's an int/dex/str base

[tough grove]

I meant for the eva/int items he had

But alot of the other gear he shows was Int which I expected. I was thrown off when he was running other things

[south sparrow]

I killed Count Geonor in Cruel, but died from DoT. I was just wondering if I missed out on any significant loot.

[trim turret]

No quest items if that's what you mean.

[hearty cairn]

Im lvl 56 and bought a lvl 65 Dijinn Barya coin; it says it grants additional ascendancy points upon completion. Im about to enter the trial of sekenas but I'm still a bit confused about this. Does it mean I can use that lvl 65 and still get over 2 ascendancy points or use the regular one from quest and then use the one I bought?

[vague adder]

working through campaign normal on my young Deadeye Ranger Lightning Arrow, would it make more sense to take Elemental Ailment , or Stun Threshold long term from the venom reward? thanks

[trim turret]

Whichever one you currently feel like you need. Long term it doesn't matter all that much and you can get the other benefits pretty easily from other sources.

[south sparrow]

greater iron rune's are 1.25 exalts on exchange, but iron runes are 10.0. Why?

[south sparrow]

For the overwhelming presence aura, why isn't there an icon at the top for it like other spirit things I've tried?

[dusky burrow]

probably because it doesnt affect you

it only affects your enemies

[south sparrow]

makes sense. so if I pay attention, I might see that debuf on nearby enemies.

[hybrid star]

they get a blurring effect which is annoying if you ask me

[south sparrow]

oh. I think I know what you mean. kind of a melty looking thing. I thought my game was just taking a poop.

woohoo, just sold my first gear.

[south sparrow]

Does the salvage bench keep track of excess quality. For example, I think you get 1 whetstone per 5 quality, but I just got 3 from 14, so I guess it kept track of excess from other salvages?

[dusky burrow]

check wiki for this

1x quality currency for every 5% quality, with a chance for an additional 1x quality currency for additional quality between each 5% breakpoint.

[south sparrow]

ok, so if it's between, it does a roll. Does say 4 extra give better odds than 1 extra?

[dusky burrow]

yeah, the more you have the higher the chance.

[south sparrow]

so probably 25%, 50%, 75%.

[olive escarp]

I fucked up respecing to a build that ended up being worse than what i had. I have no gold now to respec back to my other setup does anyone know where in the campaign would be a good place to farm gold? Like restarting a checkpoint for consistent packs or something. I can't do on level (act 4) content atm without suffering. currently just running act 3 maps

[south sparrow]

For stormcaller arrow, does the chance to shock depend on the bow? Lotte suggesting trying this for getting shock with shockburst rounds, but all the rare bows I've seen so far have a higher dex level than I have.

[south sparrow]

I'm not sure, but I would guess farming the highest leve you can will give most gold.

[trim turret]

It depends on how much damage you're doing that's lightning. Stormcaller has 500% more chance to shock which is quite a bit as long as youre hitting consistently and have enough damage.

[south sparrow]

I see, so it depends heavily on how much lighting dmg the bow does.

[hybrid star]

and phys, since the explosion converts 100% to lightning

[south sparrow]

You also mentioned blink for movement. I don't see a blink gem.

ah, it's a spirit gem

[south sparrow]

Can someone give me some pointers on how to search for gear on trade site? If I put in crossbow, 55 max level and 200 min damage, I only get 2 items which seem super overpriced for my budget. Why isn't there more from this basic search?

[quartz crow]

you can abuse weighted sum

[weary osprey]

with these parameters?

[quartz crow]

and thats very good

[weary osprey]

(most of the time people search for dps not flat)

[quartz crow]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNT4apgEohU

when it comes to weapons on a budget you can appreciate high roll flat stuff

[south sparrow]

not sure what you mean by weighted sum, but your search seems same as mine:

[weary osprey]

yeah don't search for itemlevel

that severely limits the amount of items available as most people vendor all the shit rares before maps

[south sparrow]

That's max item level. I'm level 55

oh not my level, doh

[weary osprey]

requirement level != itemlevel

[south sparrow]

yeah, that was the problem

So how could I guesstimate dps of a crossbow with more damage than mine, but with +1 to skills vs mine with +3 to skills?

[weary osprey]

use pob

[vague adder]

Get familiar with Path of Building, it will save you lots of hassle

[south sparrow]

[south sparrow]

Rudja keeps one shotting me. Do I need to keep distance or what?

[dusky burrow]

there's one attack that will oneshot most builds

you just have to keep distance when she's doing that

swinging melee attack that goes in sequence

rest you can mostly facetank / easily dodgeroll

[south sparrow]

I'm not sure what the queue is or if there is a queue. Seems like everything is good then boom, i'm dead.

[quartz crow]

you see her visually messing with her flamer

attaching a grenade to the tip

slashing you

[elder ember]

yep they attach a grenade to their weapon and start wildly swinging at you. if you get hit youre dead. but if you avoid all the attacks it blows up and stuns her = free damage for you

[final geyser]

And Risu also calls out when she starts that attack, usually "Watch out!" or "She's coming!".

Anyway, the swings are always at the same timings, so it's possible to dodge roll through them relatively easily once you've practised a few times.

[weary osprey]

it's also possible to dodge them all perfectly and still die when your party member rolls into it

[south sparrow]

I'm a Faridun supporter.

[chilly cosmos]

Are the spell attacks range based or aim based? I ask because I was pressing Unearth at the first boss after a new character and it was attacking him nearest to me instead of where I was pointing my mouse

[elder ember]

if you have the "attack in place" setting on then whenever you cast it will always just cast in the direction you aim in, regardless of whether or not you are in range to hit

I dont recommend you turn that setting off, otherwise trying to target something out of range your character will instead start walking towards the target before casting - which is quite jarring

[chilly cosmos]

I believe this is what is happening to me

is it off by default?

[elder ember]

Im not sure, I cant remember

[chilly cosmos]

trying to find it

Feels a bit better

[south sparrow]

I thought he was saying to put "attack in place" on, not off.

[chilly cosmos]

Yea, it was off by default

I can't get this game to feel good to me, but I guess I need to play it more

[south sparrow]

So those mana draining enemies. How are you supposed to deal with them?

I just run

[south sparrow]

I guess there are millions of builds you could try. Some might not feel great.

[chilly cosmos]

No no it's just basic movement, animation time, aim

the basics

I can't get them to where I feel comfortable and not clunky / vulnerable

must be me

[south sparrow]

I think movement speed is pretty slow, is that what you mean? Or are you saying info about scene is delayed?

My main skills do have an awkward deley to start firing.

[final geyser]

Do you just mean the animation for the skill, or are you experiencing some delay before the animation plays on using a skill?

[chilly cosmos]

Sometimes I feel like I'm missing hits, sometimes my character keeps moving while attacking even when I didn't move, while attacking movement is slower and I feel vulnerable, abilities are not reactive there's a slight delay, sometimes I straight up feel like I'm not aiming at the enemies hitboxes at all and basic attacks just literally fly off on their side

overall the game feels much faster than I can be and I just get piled on, but I'm assuming this is something that eases after the campaign

[south sparrow]

I don't know if this applies, but the game seems pretty cpu intensive when you start a fight. It lags super bad when a bunch of monsters spawn.

[chilly cosmos]

Game's pretty smooth here

I definitely do not remember Poe1 being this clunky

[south sparrow]

This is the first game that has consistently capped my cpu. Gonna have to upgrade pc.

My favorite characters are the slaves pulling the caravan. I would probably be one of them if I were there.

[azure lava]

It's not easy to see, but their mana drain area is a ring, not a full circle. If you're inside the ring (very close to them) you won't get drained. So either be very far or very close.

[south sparrow]

ah, nice.

[chilly cosmos]

I think i might've fixed all the issues I encountered by just swapping to WASD movement

[south sparrow]

I started with WASD, but swithed to mouse because it was hard for me to press skills while moving. But WASD is nice for moving in one direction and firing in another.

[final geyser]

I would highly recommend WASD, it's my favourite way to play by far. You can generally rebind some of the skills to mouse buttons to let you press more stuff with just the mouse, so that you don't have to be pressing T at any point.

[south sparrow]

I was going to try WASD again when my build gets to end game. However, I'm lazy and WASD seems like more work.

[final geyser]

It's less work, in my view. You can just keep the mouse on the enemy and then move around freely, it's very convenient.

Whereas with mouse, you need to constantly move back and forth if you want to be moving around and using skills on the enemy.

[south sparrow]

yeah, that's true. that might be part of the problem i'm having with shocking and switching to shockburst

I mean, when i'm firing I'm using the mouse and am stationary and taking damage usually, but with wasd, i could still fire and move

[chilly cosmos]

I cannot play without WASD, not an option for me, firing aiming and shooting while moving with mouse feels terrible to me

[south sparrow]

shoot, gonna go back to wasd, guess I should go practice it somewhere.

[final geyser]

Make sure to try out rebinding some keys if they're inconvenient for you, or simply moving the skills that you use most, or ones that you use while moving, to keys you can more easily press on the move, such as the mouse buttons or Q and E.

For most of my characters, the primary damage skills are on Left and Right Click, if I'm playing with Bucklers I'll throw Parry on Middle Click, and then I'll have movement skills on M4 and M5 (side buttons on the mouse)

[south sparrow]

oh yeah, you get left click with wasd

[azure lava]

I might be weird, but I also bind abilities to B and N and press those with my thumb

[final geyser]

Ultimately, it's best to do whatever is most comfortable for you, so if B and N work well in your case, then that's all that matters.

[south sparrow]

definitely wierd

I do hit alt with my thumb

b and n seem out there

gonna try this. reload shockburst is alt-x but bound to mouse side button

[boreal hedge]

500+ hours and I'm just now finding this out lol....

[south sparrow]

If you've played that much, whatever you are doing is working.

[boreal hedge]

Apparently 😂

I guess I just never noticed because I'm usually using ranged skills, and never really tried getting near them on purpose lol

[south sparrow]

i always end up running very far away to recover. didn't realize you could just go in close.

oh yeah, that's what I don't like, when you are running at 45 degrees, you have to pay attention and press two keys

[queen heath]

What's the deal with secondary weapons ? What's it for ? Do you benefit passively from stats on your secondary weapons when you're using your primary weapons?

[lament stone]

no

its just so you can weapon swap if you need a different weapon for something

a common one for spell builds is having a chiming staff for the sigil of power skill in your 2nd weapon set

[azure lava]

You can also assign passive points to each weapon set. One thing I use weapon swaps for is to apply curses. I have my main weapon set on I and my curse setup on II. My curse setup allocates curse nodes, cast speed, curse duration, and uses a wand/focus/staff with +levels to the curse as well as cast speed

When I swap back to I, those curse nodes get reassigned to damage nodes for my main build

[south sparrow]

FYI Sash, this is pretty advanced. He is talking about assigning different passive skill points to different weapon sets.

[azure lava]

Yeah, during the campaign I wouldn't typically recommend assigning any weapon set points. If you don't have a strong grasp of what you're doing or why you're assigning them, it'll make your build worse and your life harder.

[south sparrow]

Sash. For my build for example, I normally use weapons set I for everything. But my build doesn't really have any movement skill for weapon set I. So it uses weapon set II for a movement skill.

If you have a skill gem assigned to weapon set II it will automatically switch to that set. and back to set I if you use a set I skill, etc

The weapon that is slotted in you weapon set determines what skills can be used for that weapon set.

[south sparrow]

But if you don't know/think you need to use another weapon set you probably don't, and no need to think/worry about it.

[south sparrow]

I found a good boss to practice my asdf movement on. super easy boss, but trying to deal with keybinds and not using my secret weapoon (artillery) i get to die and try again.

oh, it's Azarian

I like Azarian. He's so sad.

all these npc's beg you to kill them to relieve their pain. that's exactly the thing that nobody want's to talk about. the pain of waking up and having to live. sometimes you would rather not.

[south sparrow]

anything to do with excess gems?

[elder ember]

dump in your stash for future characters

[south sparrow]

ok, so if too many just drop?

[lament stone]

if you have limited space in your stash just dont pick them up

[queen heath]

@azure lava thanks for the writeup

[twin terrace]

trying to use combat frenzy with resonance but it's not generating any charges

What am I doing wrong

[final geyser]

Are you Freezing, Pinning or Electrocuting enemies?

[twin terrace]

Electro

[final geyser]

Just in case, Lightning damage doesn't innately Electrocute, only Shocks. You need a Support Gem, Unique or a skill that enables you to Electrocute.

[elder ember]

how are you electrocuting?

[south sparrow]

Is the cruel quest line sorta bugged? It doesn't seem to highlight where I need to go. And it tells me things I can't do like "speak to Zarka". but I've already talked to her.

[elder ember]

thats a bugged quest. its only supposed to be in a2n

its not even the main quest

main quest is "trail of corruption"

[twin terrace]

Storm wave and tempest flurry

[elder ember]

how though?

[twin terrace]

I can see sparks animation on the enemies which should mean I electrocuted them right?

[elder ember]

no

[south sparrow]

when i clicke on "trail lof corruption" quest. I don't see any destination heighlighted.

[twin terrace]

Bruh

[elder ember]

electrocution freezes enemies in place for a time

youre getting confused with shock

[twin terrace]

How to electrocute then

[elder ember]

you need to use a skill that specifically says lightning damage contributes to electrocution buildup
or put on a support gem that makes a skill do that
or get Kitoko's Current unique gloves

the support gem is just called "Electrocute"

[hybrid star]

isn't it Kioko something

[final geyser]

Again, by default, Lightning Damage does not contribute to Electrocute Buildup, only to the chance to Shock. You need something that explicitly causes Lightning Damage to contribute to Electrocute Buildup, such as the Electrocute support gem, Electrocuting Arrow, or Kitoko's Current.

[elder ember]

sorry yeah thats the one

mb

I should know, I use it on my build

[south sparrow]

sorry i'm pretty dumb. i'm just trying to follow quest but I can't go to either of these:

[final geyser]

Go to the Desert Map near the front of the caravan and use that to travel there.

The same way you travelled to Keth.

[twin terrace]

Ig I'll use freeze for the time then

[patent merlin]

Not a total newb, but very casual. I have a lvl 57 smith of kitava and I'm going to be perfectly honest that I've just been holding every single rare drop I don't use becasue I wasn't sure if I should be disenchanting or selling and also just in hopes of throwing them on a lightning spear twink

but really also just didn't want to deal with sorting through.... should I just disenchant or sell the lot lol?

[elder ember]

if you want to twink get the unique chest that gives movement speed

[final geyser]

You shouldn't really be keeping every Rare unless it's something good, I'd disenchant most if not all of them.

[elder ember]

disenchant if you want regal orbs
sell if you want gold

[patent merlin]

I want both, but I guess I'm more regal orb poor

so I'll disenchant. and twink gear is really easy to buy isn't it? So i really don't need to worry about hoarding

please help me save me from my hoardy ass ways lmao

[elder ember]

make your loot filter really strict

once you get to maps

[patent merlin]

probably for the best, because I'm portaling to town WAYYYYY too often

yeah I just upped it to stop myself lol

[elder ember]

bring wisdom scrolls with you so you can dump bad items on the ground to save time

[patent merlin]

oh thats a good tip

thank you

[trim turret]

Salvage items with sockets or quality.

And yeah, you shouldn't be taking more than one trip back per zone, if that.

And most of it should get sold/salvaged/disenchanted.

[south sparrow]

i don't have a filter, yay me

[patent merlin]

Yeah I'm salvaging. But 1 trip per zone, is what I can try to adjust to

[elder ember]

get one asap filterblade.xyz

[south sparrow]

it's not really a problem so far. i ican see if it's superior or socketed

[elder ember]

yeah but currencies all look the same

and no sound effects

you could drop a divine orb and not even know it

[south sparrow]

ah, so alert if something good so you don't miss it

i'll lt ry a filter, but don't likek knowing what exactly it is filtering

[elder ember]

even in campaign its good to hide bad normal/magic items

[south sparrow]

but what if i'm trying to collect some stuff to recombine?

[queen heath]

Is there a way to buy exalted orbs for gold somewhere?

[elder ember]

no

[elder ember]

you dont unlock recombinator until you finish the campaign

by that time the item is useless

[south sparrow]

maybe wrong term. I have a machine that recombines in cruel act 1/2

[queen heath]

On the trade website, is there a way to look for items that can be bought with orbs of augmentation/transmutation ?

[elder ember]

doubt youll find anything good though

try with regals at least

[queen heath]

Buyout price is the option I was looking for ! Thanks a lot

[languid snow]

Are u that down bad 😭

[elder ember]

its like trying to buy groceries with sea shells

Yea I guess

[languid snow]

or the bases to keep in general

[vale skiff]

Not a new player, played the last season, is the current time a good time to start this league?

[bleak quartz]

So are these two mods on Jewels effectively the same thing?

1.  (5–15)% increased Magnitude of Ailments you inflict
   

2. (5–15)% increased Magnitude of Ignite you inflict

Is there a difference in which one I buy?...

[lament stone]

the first one applies to all ailment you inflict, the second one is only for ignite

[small knot]

if you only care about ignite

yes it is same

[tough grove]

How do I fix it where I have to click alt to see items on the ground? I want them to always show. I dont have a filter on

[lament quail]

Hello PPL, Whydo I need A flask tab?

[lament stone]

its the least useful tab across both games

if you dont think you need it, you probably dont need it

[mortal socket]

Anyone need help?

[lament quail]

HAving a lot of issues killing last boss act 3 im a Spear lithing level 51 huntress,,, issue on second phase

[mortal socket]

ign?

[lament quail]

Was actually asking for advise.

[lament stone]

what problems are you having exactly? just survivability? damage?

[mortal socket]

sorry

gotcha

[lament stone]

yea was directed more at the other guy

[mortal socket]

I didnt know my bad

[lament stone]

if you want to help people ingame you can try #2┃looking-for-group but generally its better for someone to learn how to overcome problems themselves rather than get carried and not know for the next time

[lament quail]

Second phase i get behind giant robot but my flasks dont last,,,alwasy get killed around 75%

I can almost taste it but jesus

im an old man ,,,finger cramps are reall. lol

[random dragon]

Any new acts? or is it still 1-3 on repeat?

[lament stone]

no new acts yet

[random dragon]

ty!

[lament quail]

Wait....repeats?

[lament stone]

cruel acts

since acts 4-6 arent finished and ingame yet you repeat acts 1-3 at a higher level

so that youre not too low level when going into the endgame

theyre much easier than the first time imo, you usually have a lot more of your build put together when going through the second time

so youre still in act 3, whats your life and elemental resistances like?

having those high enough will help with surviving more hits if youre unable to avoid everything

[vague adder]

Honestly rebinding Z to another key that you won't accidentally hit isn't a bad idea, it's what I do

[north veldt]

boutta pull up to the mirror service with 2600000000000000000000 engineering shards

[wicked jay]

seriously now, what the fuck do you do with things like exotic coinage or black scythe artifact or sun artifact

gambling for items with them seems absolutely not worth my time

[north veldt]

wtf

[weary osprey]

I don't think anybody did something similar in poe2 yet https://old.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1ewei0v/free_mirror/

[half moon]

At what levels do implicit skills from weapons get more support slots?

[cerulean zephyr]

40/65/90 for 3/4/5 sockets

[half moon]

Is that for Item level?

[lament stone]

isnt that for ascendancy skills?

since item levels dont go that high

[cerulean zephyr]

player level for skills granted by the player (e.g. basic attack/ascendancy), item level for skills granted by items

[lament stone]

or is it just not possible to have 5 socket weapon skills?

[cerulean zephyr]

currently not possible yeah

as far as I'm aware there's no way to get ilvl 90 items

[half moon]

Gotcha so now 5 socket mace strike. Does Vaaling a weapon affect the implicit?

[frail cedar]

infuse weapon has a buff icon or something? I think I did something wrong, I dont think its working

[spice pagoda]

You have to consume a charge to get an infusion

[frail cedar]

yeah, charges pop-up and are consumed, but when infusion itself ha a buff icon? like the charge icons

[spice pagoda]

Do you see them rotating around your weapon after you consume the charge?

I don't remember if there's a buff icon but you can see the infusions around your weapon's model

[frail cedar]

ohhh yeah I can see that, so its wqrking I guess

[final geyser]

No, it can only add a Corrupted Enchantment, the implicit remains as is.

[craggy gyro]

you guys dont use a flask tab?

[weary osprey]

if you don't have one all your other stuff in the stash will get wet

[craggy gyro]

I have a question is stormweaver still good?

I’m on warrior rn but I wanna do spells and was thinking about switching to sorc

[spice pagoda]

I've heard it's expensive to really get off the ground, but still good

[craggy gyro]

What’s the best class for spells and stuff rn

[trim turret]

You'd have to be more specific than "spells and stuff."

[trim turret]

Depends on the specific build.

I know chaos damage lich is decent.

[craggy gyro]

I’m talking about elemental abilities not just spells mb

@trim turret

[trim turret]

Well elemental abilities is an even wider category. There are elemental spells and attacks and many different ways to build them, there isnt any one best way.

[craggy gyro]

So there’s no best class for elemental abilities?

I wanna play monk or sorc but I heard it’s really expensive to make good and I’m a new player

By new I mean haven’t reached end game yet

[trim turret]

There's nothing stopping you from doing either one of those. You can make a perfectly functional build to get you through the campaign and into maps with pretty much anything. Again, there are too many skills and too many ways to build them to just say there's one best class.

Incendiary shot is an elemental skill. I saw an awesome looking build with that on a warrior. You can do elemental spells on a deadeye. It's all about how you build it. There isnt one "this is the class you should use," which is what has kept people playing POE1 for thousands of hours.

[worthy drum]

poe is not your typical cookie cutter RPG game that follow the strict fantasy trope.
"elemental damage" here is just a form of damage scaling, which applies to almost any skills except chaos.
this is a game where all class can play all skill and use all items, and there support gems and other crazy stuff to change/augment how skill behave...
CI marauder spellcaster is a thing...
yeah...

[craggy gyro]

is there any reliable way to get the lower level ultimatums...only a handful on trade and no one answering or asking a lot. I need to get back into the second trialfor experimental purposes. Thanks

Anyone got a ssf guide? I have never played before and a bit worried 😂

[hybrid star]

do you trade during campaign? I don't think so, then any campaign guide is a SSF guide

https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1328202289755983932

[worthy drum]

you mean you never played even poe1?
in any case just jump in and have fun. What can goes wrong, maybe die a couple hundred times and ended up with smashed pc and table...
similar to poe1 situation, this isn't exactly low learning curve game. So just jump in & play - if stumble on something you don't understand then research about it.
reading too many things without actual gameplay context isn't exactly helpful - it just confusing info that you don't know where to use it. At least that's how I feel generally.

[craggy gyro]

I never really played poe 1

its wild because I legit have farmed so much currency and tried so many builds but have never played ssf, idk why I am nervous, should be fun 😂

[worthy drum]

i see, so you actually already experienced poe2 player.
just try it, it's not gonna bite back... it's good to learn where exactly you get stuff rather than just rely on trade and never knew where those stuff came from...

What's the best sigle target damage for Act 1 boss using a bow?

[hybrid star]

bow shot

or LA + rods if you aren't cool

[azure lava]

https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1328202289755983932 is a guide I wrote on gearing in the campaign without trade

[boreal tulip]

hcssf

[small knot]

bow shot by far

la for packs mostly

till act3 act4 i might say

then u can transition to la+rod with a dualstring bow and continue

for bosses

esscense drain and containgion scales with spell damage on gear? or only chaos? i cant find the spell tag anywhere

[final geyser]

They are both Spells, you can see the tag right under the name. Both Essence Drain and Contagion also state the following:

[glossy python]

Does Melee Strike Range increase the area of Whirling Strike?

[lament stone]

no

it only increases the range of the actual melee strike, not the whirlwind that is created when you use that melee strike

[kind crest]

so, dumb question. Leveling as a Witch, took the lich ascendancy, but have not allocated the points.
How do you overcome the %5 mana drain before you take the other points? or should I rerun the first trial, and take infernalist and then swap in maps after I do 3 ascendancy trials?

[hybrid star]

just take a few mana nodes near your starting point

you regen 4% of maximum mana as a base

[kind crest]

Thank you. I didnt know that..

[south sparrow]

How do I get over there? This is in Spires of Deshar.

[somber lion]

keep going around probably

one of the towers likely leads up

[half moon]

Jump if you can 😏

[quartz crow]

you can leap slam

I was thinking of the previous area

but it might work there

[south sparrow]

No i tried leap slam many times. It was way too far. There were no other areas I hadn't covered. I could see a rare enemy over there too.

[half moon]

How does CDR affect minions? Is it just their activated skills on my bar?

[cerulean zephyr]

It does affect those commandable skills, but also any other skills they might have that have cooldowns (which would depend on the minion)

[quartz crow]

spectres with cds

[half moon]

tyty

[half moon]

Why can strip away support flame wall? It doesn't give exposure and it can't be supported by fire exposure?

[half moon]

Also does exposure show up under health bars?

[azure lava]

The recommended supports are sometimes completely whack. That's early access for you.

[azure lava]

Yes

[half moon]

but it's off to the right not under where shock or a curse would be?

[half moon]

It luckily wasn't under recommended I don't think. But if I uncheck recommened, it was there.

[azure lava]

There might be other ways for it to apply exposure aside from the fire exposure support, but I'm not sure

[azure lava]

I just know that when I use incinerate I can see the fire exposure % under enemy life bars. I can't remember the exact position

[half moon]

Ooh ok, I have a feeling I'm not applying exposure at all. Also regretting this use of my T3 support. Oh well

[azure lava]

How are you trying to apply exposure?

[twin terrace]

So now that I got the electrocute support gem which skill should I put it on if I want to proc combat frenzy

For charged staff

[half moon]

I was trying with raging spirits.

I think this exposure approach og damage scaling is foolish though. I'm playing lich, so I have teh extra chaos damage aura for my minions. So I don't purely do fire damage across the board.

[azure lava]

What do you mean by "trying with raging spirits"? Raging spirits + fire exposure support?

[half moon]

Yes

[azure lava]

What level is raging spirits and what level are the highest uncut skill gems that drop for you?

The chance to ignite is based on the amount of fire damage dealt in a hit compared to the enemy's ailment threshold

[half moon]

Highest 14
Raging spirits is probably between 12-14

Yeah so they could just not be igniting.

[azure lava]

Yeah fire exposure support should work with raging spirits assuming they can ignite. What other support(s) are on them?

[half moon]

I think last breath and strip away. I think I should swap strip away for either a damage multiplier or somethingt hat can support ignite magnitude if it exists.

I'm in bed otherwise I could give more detailed answers

[azure lava]

All good, me too XD
Ignition support would be my recommendation

[half moon]

I think I'll try that, I also will try just stacking more damage multipleirs on raging spirits, because I think I have some available to me that aren't on my other DPS - Arsonists.

[peak crown]

ailments "stats" depend on the weapon set you were using when you inflict them right?

i have a warrior/smith of kitava and in the one handed mace set skill tree i use some "increased armor break duration nodes", changing back to the 2 handed mace won't reduce the duration of already broken armors, will they?

[azure lava]

correct, it will not

[peak crown]

ok ^^ did not use the double skill tree on my first character but here i though it would be useful

while i don't get giant's blood i use shield put the stun debuff and use resonant shield to break armor and then change to 2 handed for basic strike and perfect strike when stunned so the red set have the 2-handed damage nodes and the green set the break armor nodes

[craggy gyro]

Does anyoen know, if teh poison inflicted by blocking with the lycosidae shield, stacks if one has the poison spear equipped?

[azure lava]

"...from this weapon..." means that it has to be an attack that hits using that spear. Lycosidae poisons do not use that spear

[craggy gyro]

Do caltrops when reserved by a spirit gem, count as from teh weapon, cause those poisons can stack

[azure lava]

It doesn't say they use their own weapon, but it does say they have their own base damage, so I can't tell if that is intended or not

[craggy gyro]

nod nod. ALso, i am using the window to paradise unique shield. EVerytime i raised it, it would "open up" and you could see teh pretty shield. but yesterday, it stopped opening up when i raise it. exposure still activates. but i miss the pretty

[dusk storm]

when playing with a bow / poison build, if im looking for a bow like this:

is flat "adds # to # phys dmg" important?

or can it be replaced with more % increased phys dmg? like 230%?

[slate spindle]

anyone can help defiting the Queen of filth ?

[hybrid star]

those stats are "local mods", they are calculated into the physical damage up top, including quality and sockets

[dusk storm]

so if i have a bow with +adds 20 to 30 phys dmg", and another one with "50% increased physical damage", but the main physical damage up top is the same for them, they are the same?

I was wondering if the poison ticks took these mods into consideration differently 😄

[hybrid star]

yeah look at the number up to for comparing

things like "+3 to level" or "increased elemental damage with attacks" don't get counted into that, they are a bit harder to compare

[dusk storm]

ah yeah I am not sure how important is the +3 to level of bow skills

[lament stone]

gem levels give more damage

[hybrid star]

and more mana cost

[peak crown]

just curious, which one is added to a weapon before? the "+x to y phys damage" or the "x% increased phys damage"

[lament stone]

flat first, then % increased

[queen heath]

What's the point of accuracy rating ? I'm playing a ranger, and my DPS doesn't budge, whether I have a lot of accuracy rating or not on my gear, how come ?

[lament stone]

it affects your chance to hit enemies

you need more accuracy at further distances

you also need more accuracy against evasive enemies

iirc the dps on your skill is based on its range at 2 metres, the advanced info on the skill should have estimated accuracy rating for a further distance too and against evasive enemies

[queen heath]

Ok thank you

[lament stone]

dex also gives accuracy, so just by playing a bow build youre already going to have a bit of accuracy from meeting the attribute requirements to equip a bow

[plain saddle]

I honestly want to punch the boss designers of Geonor and Jamara the abomination in the face. Why are the who biggest road blocks the forst two bosses? And you give them the most bullshit sub 20% hp autohit screen clear chaos attack just when you are about to win.

[final geyser]

Both Geonor and Jamanra are act bosses, they're meant to be the most challenging fight of the act. Also, neither one has an 'autohit screen clear' attack, it's entirely possible to do each boss first try as long as you're careful.

[inland sentinel]

Geonor is good

Jamanra is pretty bad tho

where can i find builds to use?

[trim turret]

Maxroll and mobalytics.

[craggy gyro]

I love it to come in a new act and have - res .. and you cant do nothing. 😄

[azure lava]

that's not true, you can read the campaign gearing guide in #1308715317375270952

[craggy gyro]

No drops no res so..

[trim turret]

That's why you're supposed to prioritize life and resists on gear, there are quests that give permanent res increases, vendors have items, salvage/disenchant for crafting currency, and runes are designed specifically to help with this.

[craggy gyro]

When you are fresh in ssf you have nothing.. 😄

[trim turret]

All of those things you can be doing, SSF or not. Being fresh makes it even more important to be salvaging and disenchanting items.

[rough pier]

er, am i supposed to get microtransaction money?

[craggy gyro]

I found and craft very strong attack but def is yes .... hard to find and when i see so much life on items and stuff but no res... is yes shit ..^^

[lament stone]

and now find slots for it ... XD

i mean offensiv is very strong to kill all stuff but i think at act 3 its going harder.

[hard cypress]

So I started a new campaign after a long time. Did they like heavy nerf the first area and side boss ?

This is my first time after the dawn of hunt patch

[worthy drum]

did they? dont think so. The most prominent change in campaign probably is making act3 zone size less of a chore.

[hard cypress]

Hmm. Noticed vendors had some significantly better loot right at the start too, but too expensive for a first character lol

[spice pagoda]

You can be on a different character, if that helps

[twin terrace]

Between the ranger and mercenary which one has a more comfortable leveling build

[trim turret]

Well since they aren't limited to any single one leveling build, both should have options.

[twin terrace]

My only prior experience is monk and leveling him was a nightmare early on

[trim turret]

Depends how you leveled him. Again, there isnt one way to do it.

[teal lynx]

Hey all. Just got back into the game. Is it worth making a new char in dawn of the hunt ? Or just stay in Standard ?

[trim turret]

All the new content is in both modes. That will not be true at some point in the future once we start getting proper league mechanics. Most of the current players will be in Dawn for the fresher economy if nothing else.

[spice pagoda]

Yeah Dawn 💯 for the active playerbase and fresh-ish economy

[south sparrow]

Does a cost multiplier on a support gem have any effect on spirit buffs?

[cerulean zephyr]

no, costs and reservations are different concepts

some support gems can affect reservation as well but they will specifically say so

[vale falcon]

I'd add that it's not always quite directly mentioned. For example blasphemy allows you to socket a curse skill gem into the spirit gem AND add support gems after that. Blasphemy says it's 60 Spirit per reserved curse but if you then add something like magnify that has 150% cost multiplier it will affect the amount of spirit reserved; instead of the mana cost that this tooltip would normally apply to

[final geyser]

Most supports that only list Cost Multiplier should only affect Cost, but some will list Cost and Reservation, so those would indeed affect the Spirit reserved.

[vale falcon]

Oh. Well today I learned something. I must have glossed over the extra word. Thanks

[thin helm]

Hello, can someone please explain me these ones? And which one should i pick. I have a character on Dawn of the Hunt. But i do not really understand these leagues. Is there a new one?

[primal talon]

ssf = solo self-found: you cannot party or trade with any other players
hc = hardcore: when you die you get moved into softcore
dawn of the hunt: current league

basically just variations of the same league that are separate from each other

[thin helm]

Ohhh, ok, thank you.

[queen heath]

Guys do you know where in infested barrens you can find a haste aura boar ?

[azure lava]

I'm pretty sure this is false. I've used magnified effect with blasphemy and it did not affect the spirit reservation

Yeah, heightened curse does affect it, but magnified effect just has a cost multiplier

[queen heath]

How much exalts is a chaos orb worth ?

[azure lava]

The currency exchange, the trade site, or poeninja might have that info

[queen heath]

I don't yet have access to the currency exchange, and on the trade site it's about 12:1, but I'm not sure about the fairness of that price

[azure lava]

Then I'd check poeninja or wait until cruel act 1 when you can access the currency exchange. You shouldn't need to trade to complete the campaign

[glad linden]

either the numbers get adjusted so its still decent early on but not too strong, but then its bad in the endgame, or they just upgrade it to a higher tier gem so you cant league start with it which imo is the better thing to do

[final geyser]

The game is intended to be more challenging in terms of the action (compared to PoE1, anyway), but it is also entirely possible to get through the whole thing with no deaths if you're careful, so yeah, both.

[rough pier]

damn i suck

[rough pier]

how do i get herald of ice

[lament stone]

using an uncut spirit gem

[trim turret]

Prioritize life and resistances on gear, look for skill gem and support gem interactions that work well together, if you're an attack based build make sure you're trying to get weapons with higher and higher damage, sell/disenchant/salvage gear you don't need for resources.

[vast ibex]

FREE EXP) Nick: Baldwinnn

[lament stone]

unless youre too high or low level compared to the zone level then you get a massive exp penalty

[glossy python]

Does anyone know why Chaos Whirling Slash/Incinerate builds are using Lacerate instead of Envenom, even when not using Saitha's Spear? Maybe there's something I'm missing. Are they snapshotting with Saitha's Spear and then switching to Skysliver or something else? I would think Envenom would be better as a damaging ailment since you're Withering and Despairing everything around you. Unless the snapshotting works and then that makes perfect sense.

[lament stone]

a build is a lot more than just skills

like what class are they using?

whats their trees like?

if you have a question about a single part of a build, it does help to link the whole build so i can guess whats going on better

with incinerate that sounds like theyre using saithas to aggravate the ignite, they dont care about the damage of the bleed theyre purely using it to buff the ignite damage, at least thats what im assuming without knowing what the build is

where are you even getting chaos from?

none of that sounds like it has anything to do with chaos

[glossy python]

Blackflame gives Chaos. You use Withering Presence and Blasphemy+Despair. You snapshot a huge Incinerate with skill ranks and fire and spell and ailment/ignite magnitude onto the ground, then scoop it with your "cooldown" Whirling Slash, and then use your other to get around and kill stuff

One Whirling Slash with all the Area buffs, and the other with Martial Tempo and other stuff, knockback, bleed, etc

[lament stone]

yea envenom would do nothing there

theyre purely using the bleed to buff the ignite damage

there is no reason at all to have poison there because a whirling slash thats doing fire damage cannot inflict poison

[glossy python]

Yes, I understand that, I've played this on HC and just died in the 70's, I get how it works

A fire Whirling Slash can't inflict poison?

[lament stone]

correct, its purely doing fire damage over time, no physical damage to be able to inflict a poison

the whirling slash part doesnt do damage by itself

[glossy python]

Dude, I get that

I just explained to you the basics of the build dynamics lol

So a fire attack can deal bleed but not poison?

[lament stone]

no

[formal vortex]

https://tenor.com/view/aimoto-rinku-d4dj-first-mix-anime-eating-popcorn-gif-19850531

[lament stone]

once the whirling slash ignites an enemy you use the spear attack or whatever to apply bleed so you can aggravate that bleed and the ignite

whirling slash itself is purely doing fire damage over time

no hit damage

[glossy python]

..........

[lament stone]

technically not actually, it applies ignite to enemies within its radius

[glossy python]

Ok so I guess my question is:
Does anyone know why Chaos Whirling Slash/Incinerate builds are using Lacerate instead of Envenom, even when they use Skysliver or speed-stick Spears, and not using Saitha's Spear? Maybe there's something I'm missing. I would think Envenom would be better as a damaging ailment since you're Withering and Despairing everything around you, so Bleed would seem not just useless but inferior. Unless Saitha's Spear's aggravation is snapshottable, and then that makes perfect sense.

[lament stone]

this is why

its not snapshottable

it only applies to the enemy that has aggravated bleed on it

which is why you only use it on bosses

you use your buffed up incinerate to create burning ground, use whirling slash to snapshot that ignite and then run around the map within that whirling slash area, when you reach a tanky rare or a boss you use your basic attack which has lacerate supporting it to apply a bleed with saithas spear, which will aggravate that bleed and the ignite that the whirling slash has applied to that boss, then you continue running around the map with whirling slash

[glossy python]

Dude, I'm literally only asking about the one skill gem

[lament stone]

theyre not using the bleed as a damaging ailment, they are purely using it to aggravate the ignite that is applied to any bosses they fight

envenom does literally nothing in this build

[glossy python]

To clarify: I'm going off of POENINJA builds. I already understood everything you're saying. What I'm asking about is why the gem for bossing is shown in builds that aren't using their bossing weapon

[lament stone]

because poeninja shows all gems used

[glossy python]

So is it just being left in for convenience sake? That would explain

Because like I said, it's showing up within the pre-boss setup.

[lament stone]

pretty much yea

[glossy python]

Ok, thank you

[craggy gyro]

How do people level up so fast in this game? People also claim they finish campaign in 4-6 hours?? How?

[lament stone]

knowing what to do, where to go, not spending too much time killing enemies so they normally stay a few levels under the zone level

not too low so that theyre not getting the exp penalty, but just inside that range so they have to kill as few enemies as possible in each zone before moving to the next one

[ebon nymph]

For spread radius in CONTAGION which supp gem would be the best?

[trim turret]

Magnified effect is the most straightforward answer.

[wispy sand]

hey coming to POE2 brand new. what are people's favorite builds? i pick a leveling build or an endgame build and work towards it? down to play any style.

[trim turret]

Most endgame builds need certain items or need to be adjusted as you go. Maxroll and mobalytics have some decent builds, look for leveling builds or league starters.

Plus fun is subjective.

ahh

[trim turret]

If you build him to be tanky.

[trim turret]

Items can drop with sockets. Salvaging them is a way of getting artificers orbs.

What I mean was that it came with the rune already socketed in it. Like the item was unidentified, with a rune already in the socket

guys any news on a new league any time soon or can i still invest in a new character for this league

[final geyser]

At least 1-2 months away

[nova spruce]

Are the prices accurate ? I was hoping to get a tangletongue while leveling but really, 50 exalts minimum ?

[meager galleon]

what do you mean accurate ?

on the trade site ?

[nova spruce]

I mean is this real, yeah on the trade site

[meager galleon]

thats what ppl are listing it for

[nova spruce]

or did I jump into the season too late and prices inflated already

[meager galleon]

and they will keep listing it for that price if ppl keep buying

season has been going on for a while, so prices might be a little inflated

[nova spruce]

0 chance to get something while leveling then

[final geyser]

Most items that are valuable aren't going to be trivial to obtain while levelling your first character even at the start of a league, and Tangletongue is considered an incredibly powerful weapon, so it'll be expensive no matter what.

[nova spruce]

And thoughts on all the corrupted tangletongues on the trade site ?

[meager galleon]

you cant put sockets on an corrupted item, if thats not an issue for you, and its cheap, go for it

[queen heath]

Why is neversink's filter recommend to pick up a forked spear on the ground, like it's some kind of godly item, but it's just a non magic trash item ? Says there is a chance of tangledtongue, what does that mean ? If I transform it to a rare item it will become a tangled tongue ? I don't get it

[meager galleon]

define recommended

how was it highlighted

was it like this?

@queen heath ^

[trim turret]

Chance orbs can turn white items into uniques, but only of the same base type. So bases for valuable uniques can also be valuable.

[meager galleon]

and forked spear base has Tangletongue unique

which is a popular spear

[queen heath]

Oh ok I see, so is it worth it to use a chance orb on it ? Or will I spend more in chance orbs than what I will get if I sell the tangledtongue if i get it ? (Based on the chance for it to turn)

I mean statistically is it worth it ? (+EV in other terms)

[meager galleon]

filterblade highlights it only cos its a chancing base for a somewhat valuable unique

it doesnt know if ppl buy the base for any price worth the time selling it, gotta check that

and decide if its worth your time trying to sell the base

or if you want to gamble your chance orbs

[craggy gyro]

Just bricked a character. What do I do

Unbrick them or go back to lower maps to farm resources to unbrick

Even then, you can just continue on until you start getting normal barya drops
