[wispy shuttle]

It's bugged

[cedar hamlet]

Do you know if they quarterstaff nodes work on hollow palm?

These ones

[wispy shuttle]

They don't

[lime tartan]

they do not.

[tacit tree]

Should I desecrate during the campaign my weapons or not?

[cedar hamlet]

Oh :c

[sacred kindle]

why prisoner HP keep healing up ?Wtf

[cedar hamlet]

Sad

[wispy shuttle]

One of his moves

Wait until he stops healing IG . Unless you have a good source of damage over time

[sacred kindle]

whch one? :\

i thought it was the ballista mech

[cedar hamlet]

No you need to fire the balista

Yes it is

[sacred kindle]

when do i need to fire, when the game told me to right?

[cedar hamlet]

If you are fast enough with it he Cant or barely heals

Ye

When he like is down kinda yk

[sacred kindle]

i did, and the next 1-2 minute he suddenly just heal up to fulll

without the game telling me to do the ballista shiet

[cedar hamlet]

Ye you had to do it again

Maybe audio bugged or some

[sacred kindle]

without the game actually tell me we need to do it?

[cedar hamlet]

But you Will see this mfkr is down a bit

And you Cant dmg him in that little time

[autumn escarp]

am I 100% throwing if I go strength mace build on huntress (due to ascendancy)

[pulsar verge]

Hey could someone help me with Jamanra ? Please 🙏

[cedar hamlet]

But you supposed to get balista real quick so he doesn't heal

[sacred kindle]

hmm ok

1 ballista is enough or need 3 of em

[wispy shuttle]

98% sure you are

[signal rover]

I’m in act 1 still anyone wanna link up and grind?

[autumn escarp]

I can pivot to a ritualist huntress afk dmg then? (lvl 9)

[quick pike]

FloRyu inv

[cedar hamlet]

Nah you just need to fire 1

Wichever is closer

[pulsar verge]

Cool thanks

[wispy shuttle]

You can try

I suppose

[cedar hamlet]

[pulsar verge]

Cannot invite you , get the message you’re in a different league , what does it means ?

[quick pike]

ahh

I'm in the new abyss league

[sacred kindle]

@cedar hamlet ok i saw what he did, after the blood aoe slam, he's like life draining me?? wtf?

its not the ballista move

[quick pike]

you are in standard , can't help

standard gets all changes except the league mechanics , abyss , the big majority of ppl are playing the new leagues

[pulsar verge]

So that means , this is the endgame content ?

[sonic sand]

where can I check rewards for interlude??

[quick pike]

no from the first zone , each zone will have the new abyss mechanic

[quick pike]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/guides/campaign-loot-normal#act-4-0

[pulsar verge]

ok

Ah yes ok I see

[midnight briar]

why is it not working

respawning

[pulsar verge]

Ok is there anyone that plays standard and can help with Jamanra act 2 ?

[cedar hamlet]

oh ye the blood shit

ye idk i insta died fromt that lol

I was happy to have alot of dmg and just dodge it like once or twice and beat him

[compact crypt]

so I'm in act 3 and my dmg kinda dropped off as monk. do I just trade for better gear? lv 37

[cedar hamlet]

go hollow palm

[compact crypt]

where is that node and is that actually a good idea for dmg?

[cedar hamlet]

ye

I had no issues

[compact crypt]

can I still use storm wave?

[lime tartan]

yes. look for a quarterstaff. make sure you set level and attribute limits, and how much currency you're willing to spend. then just sort by dps and you're bound to find something.

[cedar hamlet]

https://gyazo.com/3209e876ae915ffd9507737bc648c03e

its the top right there

Ye every quarterstaff skill

and its based on the level of the skill

you can enhance that with crit and affinity dmg and stuff

[compact crypt]

oh okay dope. I'll try it out

[cedar hamlet]

imma change it up abit in the beginning according to what fuze told me

but ye its the top right node there

[clear vine]

on larger maps, can multiple abyssal tears open up in seperate locations or is it always limited to 1?

[sacred kindle]

weird haha

[humble temple]

what does the circle thing mean? I went over to it and nothing happened

[frank sonnet]

I've cleared the whole kedge bay area but captain hartlin didn't spawn, seems weird

[quick pike]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/resources/abyss in campagin only 1 , found a big abyss with 3 fissures , in endgame maps you can add modifiers to waystones and even make a big map with only abyss

[frank sonnet]

it's an abyss, if it's grey you already failed it

[humble temple]

ohh

[frank sonnet]

or compelted it

[humble temple]

I don't think I failed because this one I didn't die but others I did

[quick pike]

my build kills them fast and sometimes I get 1 chest sometimes 2 -3 , it's probably rng if you get a chest

[somber wedge]

Stuck at Viper Napuatzi right at the end of act 3. I’ve tried to optimize what I can and have gotten her close once but I’ve been on this for an hour already and am just super frustrated

[frank sonnet]

yeah she is just a hard fucking boss, no two ways about it. what is getting you?

also what build are you playing?

[somber wedge]

I’m on grenade Witchhunter and my single target is just not it. If I get a good run I can sustain pretty well until I get to the very smallest rectangle and then she just unleashes too much damage with the shield guys on the side and is floating the whole time

[quick pike]

yeah last league I died on like 4 characters to that boss in hc, now on my minions sc build , had no problem

[frank sonnet]

yeah that last spear phase is just hard... she will eventually come down

she's bugged for me a couple of times and one side stopped doing the spear attacks, that helped lol

[somber wedge]

Well it makes me a feel a little better that it’s not just me struggling with her

[lime tartan]

in the spear phase from the shield walls, just stand by one and dance between them, don't go too far or run around trying to avoid, just stand in front of the inactive spears, then sidestep a bit to be safe. then when the wave comes, just dodge roll into it.

[split shore]

i need help to kill Asinia

[marble obsidian]

does minions revive timer start when last gasp is procced or after?

[harsh tartan]

Do skills that consume an ailment work with a support gem that also consumes that ailment? More specifically I was wondering if it works to put "Biting Frost" support (consume freeze to deal 40% more damage" on "Fragmentation Rounds" (ammo that consumes freeze to cause an explosion)

Gonna guess no

But wanna ask anyways

[split shore]

anyone can help me to kill Asinia id: king_of_evil_115

[frank sonnet]

what is killing you? most of her attacks are pretty well telegraphed and you can just walk out of them

[rotund jewel]

Soo, I am playing warrior and sometimes I miss attacks like mace strike/boneshatter right on the face of the enemy, is this a hitbox thing or it is really a miss? Skill says I have 97% chance to hit at close range

[frank sonnet]

I don't know for sure but I believe the answer is no - you could test it fairly easily

[split shore]

i think my build is bad

[desert sedge]

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

[harsh tartan]

Well not without spending my precious first lv 3 support gem to try it out and wasting it if it doesn't work (I know they become common later)

[lime tartan]

the ingame currency exchange has them, they aren't sold on the item trading

[whole pawn]

am i able to use that in act 1? If so, where is it?

[lime tartan]

nope. they aren't that rare though, should get one easily. and if you really want one guaranteed, just start a new character and one of the early quests will give you one as a reward. i wouldn't bother though, just keep going.

[whole pawn]

darn, still havent gotten a second one and really want the multishot thing to improve clear speed. Sooo slow. But thanks!

[harsh tartan]

@frank sonnet nvm you can't put biting frost on frag rounds at all, it's listed as non-compatible on the description

[trail lodge]

how can I remove currency orders from the last season? it says something about "Migrate all" on the character screen but that doesn't work

[upper pasture]

Guys, I really want to do a chaos DOT build with witch, but none of the ascendancies seem to help damage over time? Any suggestions?

[clear vine]

How do i buy the new finisher effects?

[quick pike]

lich is great for got builds https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/essence-drain-lich-build-guide

[analog flint]

Can you reset a checkpoint with controller or only mouse and keyboard?

[topaz junco]

lich does

[upper pasture]

How so? Maybe I'm overlooking something?

[lament stone]

you use it for defenses

and theres a generic more damage node too

[upper pasture]

Okay so there's not really anything in there that directly boosts DOT damage but it's the best to keep you alive is that what ur saying? lol

[lament stone]

pretty much

[upper pasture]

Okay, got it, btw how can someone sustain 5% constant mana loss per second? I see that in that ascendancy

[lament stone]

you dont take that node

[grim roost]

When using the dreaded Lightning Arrow & Rod combo, what's the maximum times I should shoot rods at bosses before spamming LA? If there is a limit

[upper pasture]

Ahhhh wait, I'm starting to connect the dots. So your chaos spells will explode enemies

[grim roost]

Oh nevermind I'm blind, it says 20 arrows max at the bottom

[topaz junco]

you dont really take that node either

souless form > eternal life > eldritch empowerment > crystalline

[lament dome]

Hey, I lose my video signal really often when I load the game or TP in, TP out, meaning that I gotta restart my comp. My comp has no issue whatsoever and thats the only game that crashes, any idea of how to fix this ? its quite random but yet frequent

[upper pasture]

Oh. What the hell lmao. Okay, kinda trying to wrap my brain around that but will watch a video or something, thanks!

[tight heath]

anyone can explain this? i dont get this node.

[mental nymph]

Can anyone help me with boss in 3 act please?

[topaz junco]

whats confusing about it

[topaz junco]

#2┃looking-for-group

[opaque wolf]

Cant activate spirit gem, i have 163 spirit free? Convalescence, why would i need spirit in both weapon sets?

[lament stone]

you dont take that one either, the damage bypassing es with life number cannot change nodes are very strong and the jewel socket is also good

scrolling down to the ascendancy section on that page would help, it explains why it takes the nodes it does

[topaz junco]

are you familiar with the invocation skills?

[upper pasture]

Life cannot change with energy shield, so is this the time where you'd want no HP basically and insane ES?

[tight heath]

i guess not.

[topaz junco]

yup

[upper pasture]

Also, yeah, don't know much about end game jewels, so no state of reference I guess

[lament stone]

yea its a high es build, but not ci, the life cannot change node enables low life stuff for more cast speed/damage

[upper pasture]

Got itttttt okay cool, I have a direction now at least, sweet

[lilac glen]

Sorry if this question isnt meant for this channel but I can still get a haste aura beast in act 3 right? Ive been reseting in jungle ruins for the past 20 mins with no luck 🙁

[upper pasture]

Sorry what's ci?

[topaz junco]

that node makes these skills activate every 2 seconds, and makes the skills they activate cost less energy

[lament stone]

sets your max life to 1 but makes you immune to chaos damage

[upper pasture]

Oh, so I'd want high life as well as high ES?

[clear vine]

How do i buy the new finisher effects?

[tight heath]

Is it okay if I don’t upgrade this node? Will it make a big difference?

[upper pasture]

@lament stone Ahhhhhh got it, need high life for high mana regen.

[topaz junco]

that depends on your build, if you dont use one of the invocation skills then you dont need it

[topaz junco]

not doing it for the mana regen, cause soulless form gives you mana regen

[upper pasture]

Right but I thought the regenerate mana equal to 6% of maximum life per second means I need high life, or high life regen? So I could have low life but high life regen?? Lol sorry

[topaz junco]

you take it mostly cause it blocks eternal life, but with those 2 nodes you essentially ignore 10% of dmg

[topaz junco]

you dont care about life regen as a lich if that makes sense

[upper pasture]

Got it! Okay sweet thanks, actually having an old school LAN party with a buddy and we just picking characters, appreciate the help, gotta run for now haha.

❤️

[eager gazelle]

is there a way to have dual control schemes? i.e controller everywhere but menus that use mouse?

[coarse hull]

is the Roving Wisps POI bugged?

[tulip dove]

I've not played with Minions so far in PoE2 - am I missing something? Isn't there supposed to be tooltip info on the attack stats for this skill? Chance to poison? etc?

[rigid plover]

there way to get uncut skill gems early on? Im in act2 havent gotten drop in while now

[valid sky]

Ok I have a warcry that empowers attacks and a CHANNELED attack with a support that increases its damage the longer I channel it. Does the support apply its effect to empowered attacks part?

[torn hedge]

Is there any way to make the shared weapon set swop not feel awful for crossbows? When switching to secondary automatically for grenades/totems and using primary for shotgun stuff it frequently doesn't switch back since it doesn't seem you can assign the "attack* to always use primary weapon set.

[thick badger]

any one got a list of all the desecrated modifier possible?

[coarse hull]

you either buy from trade or just farm more, but as you progress you will get lots so dont sweat about it so early on

[rigid plover]

how do you farm them just re do bosses?

[coarse hull]

for acts i dont bother farming for the gems

[rigid plover]

ok thanks

[quick pike]

https://poe2db.tw/us/Desecrated_Modifiers

[thick badger]

tnx

[jovial wyvern]

is there a way to find out which passive books im missing?

i have 22...supposed to be 24 right?

[fresh wedge]

why is my res so low im at act 3 atm

[trail lodge]

in the higher acts you get negative res

[fresh wedge]

so it's always gonna be low?

[final meadow]

Anybody helping with bosses guys?

[fresh wedge]

the max cap is 75% right?

[trail lodge]

well you have to get it to 75

[spark berry]

What's the best item to use omen of ancients on?

[coarse hull]

sure

[compact crypt]

how do I turn off global filter so I don't have to press alt?

[fresh wedge]

i hv +22% cold res and it's capping at 12%

[trail lodge]

theoretically more but softcap is 75

[trim turret]

You can't assign the crossbow attack that uses the currently loaded ammo to only be used by weapon set 1?

[final meadow]

Ig: ChronoMotor Viper is who I need help with. thank you

[trim turret]

Z shows/hides nameplates.

[compact crypt]

thanks

[valid sky]

Does armour even gets calculated when actively blocking?

[tired light]

is there a way to enable more detailed tooltips on skill bar?

[torn hedge]

You can, but that doesn't affect the actual fire a bullet skill

[trim turret]

Because you get a penalty at the end of each act. Its meant to keep you looking for more gear, and higher level gear can roll higher resistances.

[fresh wedge]

i get tht

[trim turret]

Assign the fire a bullet skill to set 1 only. Especially if you're only using one actual ammo skill.

[jovial wyvern]

ur res isnt capped at 22

[fresh wedge]

how do I check tht thing

[torn hedge]

There is no ability to set that affinity for that particular skill since it's tied to the weapon

[trim turret]

Only if some damage gets through the block.

[valid sky]

oh it kinda means its useless then

[fresh wedge]

look at this then

[trim turret]

Oh then it may be something that needs improvement.

[trim turret]

You said youre in act 3?

[fresh wedge]

ye

[valid sky]

@trim turret so the stun meter that you get while actively blocking is not affected by armour reductions at all? Like if I want to reduce its being filled I can't do that with armour?

[fresh wedge]

legecy of vaal

[torn hedge]

Basically means that the 100 point weapon skill ascendency feels like terrible to play

[floral abyss]

Why i cant Trade i do not have the required quest

What do that mean

[violet hare]

what to do with vial of sacred water? helppp

[trim turret]

Yeah, so 28% fire res minus the 20% penalty is 8%.

[fresh wedge]

oof

[noble jetty]

am alrdy at end game and i have these 2 in my inventory, i tried to use it in the altar but it isnt working, what am i missing?

[humble temple]

what's cold infusion?

[fresh wedge]

so how much does the res negates per act??

[trim turret]

Depends on the two weapons. In 0.1 I did two crossbows, one for grenade skills and one for my projectile skill and it worked fairly well.

[valid sky]

put them on the pedestals in the same location

[midnight briar]

Why do I get so slow XP in T1 maps with 50 char

[trim turret]

Read your quest log.

[coarse hull]

its a map POI

[trim turret]

You can't do the new trade method until act 4.

[valid sky]

@trim turret so does elemental resistance doesnt matter if actively blocking as well?

as in stun meter filling

[trim turret]

10%.

[fresh wedge]

💀

[floral abyss]

Okay thank you

[fresh wedge]

thenku

[trim turret]

I actually dont know.

[valid sky]

interesting 🤔

[violet hare]

im left with this 2

[fresh wedge]

u hv to roam the map for the 2nd one

[trim turret]

Im not there so I don't know what that item is for. Progress your quests and see if a use comes up for it.

[frosty stone]

blasphemy + temporal chains does not work? i see the purple circle below me but i do not see any buff on top left and i do not see any change on the monsters?

[trim turret]

Arent T1 maps a much higher level than 50? And this is a #2┃after-acts-help

[trim turret]

Well it doesnt buff you so you wont see anything. Any symbol above the monsters heads?

[midnight briar]

65

[frosty stone]

no, i do not see symbols above monsters head but i see the circle below me

[trim turret]

Yeah you're way underleveled so you get less XP. Theres a penalty for being too far away from the area level.

[noble jetty]

i tried at the trial but it isnt working, where do i use it??

[valid sky]

these are not the same things

these 2 are for the quest in the same area where you looted them

[frosty stone]

wait, curse level is lower than mobs so it can not effect

[trim turret]

Theres a third type of trial coming at some point, but isnt in yet.

[rigid plover]

should I worry about which skill to upgrade with lesser orb? still early acts or does it not matter much?

[valid sky]

I believe its this quest

two wishes one

[humble temple]

does this mean it's taking 25% more damage from cold damage?

[valid sky]

you put them on 2 pedestals and djinn grants you a wish of loot

[coarse hull]

jeweller are rare early use only on main skill

[valid sky]

thats 25% slow

[trim turret]

No, its chilled by 25% unless I have my symbols mixed up.

[humble temple]

ohh

[quick pike]

you should get plenty , I've upgrades all my gems and I still have 5 left

[noble jetty]

alright thx

[humble temple]

what would the 1% thing be?

[eager gazelle]

so im following fubgun's leveling deadeye build and it suggest i get a warden bow with 2 sockets around level 11. is there a way to farm this?

[trim turret]

Freeze buildup.

[trim turret]

Its more a suggestion. If you can get that, great.

[rigid plover]

alright thank you

[quaint saffron]

can any1 pls tell how to attach certain skills to a specific weapon on controller?

[warped copper]

hi, do people prefer new or old trade system

[lost scaffold]

very much prefer the new system
if I want something I'm not sifting through pages and pages of fake offers
and playing touch and go with dubiously human players if I do get a live offer

[coarse hull]

you dont have to follow it to the T just get a decent elemental dps you are good

this only matters after campaign

[tacit elk]

If you put support gems like clarity in your temporal rift does it actually work? I cant see a difference but its taking my spirit

[tired light]

is there a way to enable more detailed tooltips on skill bar?

[trim turret]

I dont think in the skill bar. Might need to view the advanced info in the gem menu.

[sacred kindle]

UH

[formal bay]

what are some good early on uniques on hollow palm monk ?

[prisma pumice]

does the guy in interlude 3 offer everyone the same uniques?

or is it randomly generated ones

[quick pike]

yeah I think that's a bug

[halcyon lagoon]

where can i find the trial

[warped copper]

do you guys have any loot filter for deadeye ls im act3 rn

[trim turret]

You don't usually need or even want uniques unless its for your specific build and does something you can't get from a good rare. I know there's a pair of gloves for unarmed damage but Im not sure what level theyre available.

[quick pike]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/getting-started/trials-of-ascendancy act 2

Trial of Sekhemas

[halcyon lagoon]

yeah i know im on this page

but i dont know where the trial is

[trim turret]

Loot filters arent that specific. Neversink semistrict should be fine for the whole campaign.

[vast vapor]

is anyone having the problem that you can't curse enemies? I cast the curse on the ground, the circle appears, but after it explodes, the mobs don't get cursed... I don't use any other curses, and I saw it with elemental weakness, temporal chains...

[quick pike]

check the Where is the Trial of the Sekhemas? section

[trim turret]

Theres like a connection between gem level and monster level for curses that may have something to do with it.

[halcyon lagoon]

i have no idea what im looking at here

i dont see where this is

[warped copper]

is it updated

[vast vapor]

THANK YOU... I'm so stupid... I just saw it

[quick pike]

in town in act 2 talk to the woman that moves the town

that moves the caravan

[rough dew]

Hey guys, what’s the seven pillars?

[brittle totem]

it doesnt work and now blasphemy has been crashed and it impossible to actrivate it anymore

[ebon helm]

How did I even die if I have almost full helath?

[coarse hull]

0 honour

[rough dew]

Nvm I found it, was in the small undiscovered corner

[ebon helm]

how do I get honour?

[coarse hull]

you start with honour you lose it by taking dmg

so dont get hit

[trim turret]

If you followed it in the website it will stay up to date as neversink updates it.

[ebon helm]

what a stupid mechanic is this

[eager lotus]

Some rooms contain fountains that restore honour too

[fresh wedge]

wat are the ways to get better gear??

[eager lotus]

And some boons can restore it

[trim turret]

Drops, throw crafting currency (cheaper ones and essences) at white bases, gambling at the gold vendor, etc.

[coarse hull]

from drops, merchant, trade or my favourite you GAMBA

[coarse hull]

it is what it is

[fresh wedge]

oof

[quick pike]

the new essences are great too

[trim turret]

Your max honor is based on your life and defenses so keep that in mind. Most damage in the trial is avoidable. They used a lot of monsters that have long windups.

[tired light]

did they bunch up all the gem levels together in the gem tabs? used to be more organized, no?

[halcyon lagoon]

she tells me nothing

[coarse hull]

the device beside her

[halcyon lagoon]

and what do i click here

[quick pike]

maybe you unlocked the area check the waypoint

it's underground

[coarse hull]

click this on the right

[fresh wedge]

is acuracy imp for aoe atks??

[halcyon lagoon]

so i have to find path to the trial in traitors passage? why is this so confusing

[tired light]

what happened to the organized gem tabs we had? Now they all just bunched into the same row?

[bold plank]

Can someone help me against Geonor?

[midnight briar]

how far u need to be from killer to get xp?

[fresh wedge]

wich act is dat?

[bold plank]

First…

[compact crypt]

it's not a bug it's a feature?

[fresh wedge]

i can help

[bold plank]

Go to your dms

[quick pike]

check this clip https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Sq-hHRsckRw

you need to kill the boss first

[tired light]

how do you mean? it used to be more organized, separating differing levels of gems into their own rows

[coarse hull]

btw anyone cleared the Roving Wisps POI in preludes? or is it bugged

[halcyon lagoon]

i watched it and thanks to the video i got balbala barya but i still cant figure out how to get to the trial. i he shows it on the video but i cant find this in my game

[warped copper]

should i sell or disenchant yellow items?

[quick pike]

I was just in that zone , only found 1 wisp and didn't get the completion

[trim turret]

Depends whether you need gold or crafting currency more. I bounce back and forth.

[coarse hull]

yea happened to me too so i am very confused

[quick pike]

you need to move the caravan in act 2 , click on the desert map

[south sparrow]

Why do sometimes abyssal troves not spawn? It just leaves a circle which is marked on the map.

[quick pike]

click to move to trial of sekkema

[eager gazelle]

so i found a blue warden bow but im not sure its better than my current rare?

[coarse hull]

rng

either chest, depth or nothing

[coarse hull]

your current bow is much better unless you wanna invest into the warden bow

but i dont recommend it since you are still very early into the acts

[eager gazelle]

also just found a spirit gem, how do i get spirit to craft the herald of lightning?

[coarse hull]

just right click on the gem

[trim turret]

You should have gotten it when you used the skull.

[coarse hull]

ah my bad the skull yes

[trim turret]

Yeah so that gives you your first 30 spirit which is enough to activate a herald skill.

[eager gazelle]

guess imma run around the map again looking for that skull that i didn't see

[trim turret]

Freythorn?

[eager gazelle]

im in the farm atm

[trim turret]

The boss drops it, you use it, it automatically gives you thirty spirit, and a spirit gem.

[kind crest]

kind of a dumb question. Trying to decide on a build for this go around, are flicker strike and/or hollow palm painfully hard or expensive to play?

[midnight briar]

whats good way to get xp from 50-55

[trim turret]

Killing monsters in zones that are within three levels of your own.

[eager gazelle]

i guess ill go do frey for the boss drop then

[final meadow]

I used my spirit gem on Herald of Ash and now my moba build switched to Thunder am I screwed ?

[trim turret]

Ritual points are per zone. Use them or lose them.

[trim turret]

Ritual points are per zone. Use them or lose them.

[languid notch]

movespeed prio

[quick pike]

movement speed first , life ,res

[fresh wedge]

gloves and belt??

[trim turret]

You are not your minions. Has to say minions.

[trim turret]

Life and res are top priority on everything but your weapon.

[fresh wedge]

so almost on all my gear i need lot of res

does armor and evasion do anything??

[lament stone]

if it doesnt say "minions" or "allies" it doesnt apply to minions

[fervent lotus]

Can someone trade me a low lvl spirit gem 🙏 name: Chlorokinesis

[trim turret]

Of course, its just that life and resists are the top priority.

Everything else you layer on top as youre able, depending on your build.

[signal raptor]

Quick question. Should I buy quillrain or a widowhail? Leveling a ranger rn

[trim turret]

Neither. You dont need unique items to level.

And widowhail does nothing unless you have an amazing quiver.

[humble temple]

if I have a quarterstaff that gives fire damage but I have no skills that do fire damage is it just a useless modifier?

[trim turret]

If its an attack it will use the flat fire damage.

Attsckd use all damage on a weapon when able.

[sinful sand]

every so often my game freezes for maybe 8 seconds and then the map resets with fog of war back. The CPU ad GPU utilization isn't crazy, temps are normal, drivers are updated. Any ideas on a fix?

[late veldt]

what happens when you put multishot on siege ballista?

[humble temple]

ooh okay ty!

[frosty stone]

can we change this later after we choose one?

[trim turret]

Thats an nvidia driver bug they haven't been able to fix yet. It used to crash the game but they made it reload the whole driver instead.

[quick pike]

try changing the renderer , dx12-vulkan, try deleting the shader cache in appdata-roaming-poe2 folder shadercache , change the rendered in the main menu and restart the game

[final meadow]

Guys when do I unlock Rhoa?

[humble temple]

does this mean it's not cleansed? I don't see any enemies around?

[serene ocean]

The other options still showed me availability to click on after I chose one so I assume so

[past kiln]

You can yes

[signal raptor]

Gotcha thank yku

[serene ocean]

Means u missed other rituals

[humble temple]

ahh okay

[craggy gyro]

Hey I got locked in chamber of echoes, siren doesn't spawn I can't leave the area, relogging puts me here again. Any ideas?

[quick pike]

restart at checkpoint?

[craggy gyro]

yeah but how? I cant die

[frosty stone]

is this maximum mana for everyone?

[humble temple]

I assume this has to do with fire damage?

[quick pike]

pause and respawn at checkpoint

[craggy gyro]

holy shit im rtarded

thanks bro

[coarse hull]

yes

[quartz ivy]

Hello, my Blasphemy stopped working and i can't seem to figure out why. The aura is toggled, plenty of attributes, activated in both weapon sets and only using the one curse in blasphemy. I also have some spirit left over still so not that either. What am i missing?

[trim turret]

Level of gem vs monster level.

Theres some scaling there I think.

[formal kayak]

how does this zolin / zelina fight work, anyone know? they just keep healing each other

[wild forge]

anyone elses game crashing every time they fight act4 boss torvian?? freezes my whole pc and then closes the game 10 seconds later...

amd software is telling me a driver timeout has occured idk

[quartz ivy]

That was it, thanks!

[fresh wedge]

is scroll of wisdom necessary??

[kind crest]

is it bad that I have died 6 times and have have not made it through clearfell... wth

[serene ocean]

In what sense

[fresh wedge]

for identifying items

cuz the creepy dude does it

[coarse hull]

nope for new players it is normal

[lament stone]

can still be useful for strongboxes, or identifying items that you might just drop back on the ground if theyre not useful to you

[fresh wedge]

hmm

[kind crest]

I think my next character should be named sean bean

[coarse hull]

i burst one down then burst the other

[opaque wolf]

its annoying that we cant use the same weapon in different slots as a second weapon set. I want to use wand / scepter and scepter/shield but this means i need two scepters with desired rolls

[coarse hull]

haha you can type /deaths to track your deaths

[dim sapphire]

Im doing a minion build at the moment and am stuck in a boss fight in the interlude, essentially the boss has a leech attack that hits my minions and brings them to full hp nearly. I've had runs where my damage is next to 1m total and they are full hp.

[serene ocean]

Yeah after that no up to how u want to do it

[sage raptor]

when do i choose the specialization?
I ended Act 1 and i thought it was somewhere there

[dim sapphire]

is there anyone that can give me some advice to beat it, ive tried moving my minions around to bring out stuff that may not be hit as much and I don't do damage without them

[serene ocean]

Which boss

In on minions and never had any issues

[dim sapphire]

Zolin and Zelina

[coarse hull]

its mid act 2

[sage raptor]

ok thx a lot

[dim sapphire]

they leech hp right off minions and bring themselves to full HP consistently

[coarse hull]

this is the interlude acts right?

[dim sapphire]

yea

I said it was interlude

[kind crest]

yes, i think im at 7.... I think when I first died early access when it dropped I hit 27 deaths before I got out of act 1... its why I stopped monk.. lol I probably shouldnt have started it back up

[coarse hull]

okay i can help but you gotta wait till i finish my map

[serene ocean]

Hm I think I remember them maybe recovering HP cause of new phase but yeah I did them first try on minions

[dim sapphire]

your minions probably out damage mine then

[trim turret]

You can lock the sceptre to both weapon sets unless Im misunderstanding what you're asking.

[dim sapphire]

cause they will regen from half to full in 2 attacks

[serene ocean]

Then yeah maybe a stat check case

[dim sapphire]

but ive had zero problems up until now

this would be a very weird place to stat check a player

[kind crest]

I might just go Smith: Boneshatter again and learn maps with that. I was hoping to try flicker strike

[coarse hull]

ign please if you need help

[serene ocean]

What's ur Sceptre / minion setup

[dim sapphire]

Minenpt

alot lol

2 war, 3 sniper, 1 forst, 2 storm, brute, 2 cleric

[kind crest]

a

[dim sapphire]

I have a spectre, bloodthief queen, but I have tried taking it off since I know it spawns so many minis, no diff, ive tried spamming poison with archers, was better but outhealed me still

[young tusk]

Can you change Ascendancies now?

[coarse hull]

dont exist

[dim sapphire]

Minept sorry, misspelt, my bad

[coarse hull]

now as in?

[young tusk]

In 0.3

[quick pike]

y since 0.2

[serene ocean]

I did it using only vaal guard specters (4 of them)

[frosty stone]

i chose %3 mov speed, it shows this. is that normal?

[wild forge]

for future people potentially reading this with the same problem, switch to dx12

[heady prairie]

why do the curses say do not affect enemies above level XX?

[coarse hull]

yes

[dim sapphire]

thank you

[rotund oxide]

im not sure what to go for this for hollow palm

[coarse hull]

that level will increase once your skill level increase

[restive wagon]

What’s max character lvl?

[coarse hull]

100

[heady prairie]

okauy

[quick stag]

what weapon skill level/item level do u unlock the 4th and 5th support slot?

[restive wagon]

Ok thank you and you can’t reset passive tree?

[glacial pewter]

Talk to hooded one

[coarse hull]

you can reset passives

but if you are talking about 1 button reset whole tree No

[restive wagon]

Thank god thank you happy farming u 2

Ok Ty

[coarse hull]

you need jeweller

[quick stag]

for weapon skills too?

[lament stone]

i think its 65 for 5th socket

[stable umbra]

Higher lvl weapon come with more support slots

[frosty stone]

how do i complete this quest? speaking does not work 😄

[quick stag]

for 5 link its ilvl 65?

i mean

its not ilvl, required level right?

[rotund oxide]

does charms recover in battle?

[lament stone]

it is item level

[frank sonnet]

I can't figure it out either but it's optional and trading works so don't sweat it

[lament stone]

item level 65 for skills granted by items

for default attacks and ascendancy skills it is character level 65

[outer wadi]

you guys think there will be a premium stash tabs sale next weekend?

kinds want to get the bundle os merchant tabs

[glacial pewter]

They do come around a lot

[lament stone]

merchant tabs wont be on sale for this next stash tab sale apparently

[outer wadi]

damn they are smart lol

[molten acorn]

Do we get way more gold later in the game or does it tend to keep it's worth?

[lament stone]

yea gold drops a lot more later on

[molten acorn]

Cool so I'll just disenchant until after the campaign

[lament stone]

but the amount of gold you spend on stuff also goes up

[frank sonnet]

looks like you can just talk to her in kingsmarch and it works

[quick stag]

gotcha, so its not required level/level on the skill itself. for example a staff granting a lvl 14 skill thats ilvl 64 would not be a 5 link, but a lvl 14 skill thats ilvl 65 would be?

[frank sonnet]

if an item sells for 1k+ gold and you have plenty of regals I say sell it

[fresh wedge]

wich type of resource is worthless?

[heady prairie]

oil

[fresh wedge]

huh

ther's oil in this game?

[quick pike]

no blight,but here are anoints with Distilled Ire

[serene ocean]

Almost none

Especially if you aren't ssf

[boreal quartz]

What're the most worth things to spend money on

like I'm aware you need points but which things should you buy if you need points

[quick pike]

stash tabs, but I would way for the 20% off in like 1-2 weeks ,

[serene ocean]

Currency tab and map tab/waystone tab

Are imo the 2 most crucial

[quick pike]

new trade merchant stash tab too

[boreal quartz]

nono I mean like which thing should I buy to even get points in the first place

[serene ocean]

Oh true

[boreal quartz]

I've already got currency and map tab

[serene ocean]

Oh

What are the options

[quick pike]

a 30 $ or 60 $ pack

[boreal quartz]

oh one of the packs?

[serene ocean]

The supporter packs always give u points equal to the money spent I believe

• added on cosmetics

So

[quick pike]

yeah you get mtx and 300 or 600 points

[boreal quartz]

ok cool

and then what's a waystone tab?

[restive wagon]

How long supporter packs on sale? How long is seasons?

[serene ocean]

It's the map tab

[boreal quartz]

ah I've already got that then

are there any other ones besides currency/map tabs that you want

[serene ocean]

What do u not have then

[boreal quartz]

I've got one premium stash, one currency, one map so idk any other stash tabs that are really wanted/needed

[serene ocean]

The new merchant tabs

That got added this patch

[quick pike]

there are 2 types the ones that have a 480 $ supporter stay in the store for a long time , each league they add new 30 - 60 $ support packs too

4 months

[restive wagon]

Ok tyvm 🙂

[pearl aurora]

if i wanted to swap my minion infernalist build to then try a demon build with different passives, is it possible?

[quick stag]

does this never get crossed out? ive already completed the mission with Ange

[pearl aurora]

basically what I mean is can you have separate build presets

[quick pike]

yes you would need to respec ascedancy points

[pearl aurora]

oh

but every time you chose to swap, you spend gold right

[quick pike]

y

[pearl aurora]

hmmm

[opaque lantern]

Hello everyone, I made a build help post, but I thought to ask here also, since I'm rather new and am having trouble with my warrior starter.

I play almost exclusively in a group, either 2 or 3 players, and I noticed that the normal slam+bone shatter doesn't really work since the mobs don't get to the necessary stun treshold.

Are there any alternatives? I was looking into a shield charge build, but I don't know how well it works with the changes to magma barrier. Also seen a guide sugest cold infusion+ice herald+polcikelrn, which I do have, luckly.

[opal eagle]

I can't get the boss fight to start

[serene ocean]

Someone I talked to a bit said they are doing the forge hammer + warcry combo and shredding on mid gear

[coarse hull]

you can try to relog if its bugged

it happens

[opal eagle]

it's gonna probably remove teh zone

[opaque lantern]

It's the goal, unfortunately level IX gems are still quite far away for me

[opal eagle]

and make me run through it again

[coarse hull]

oh wait you can do the respawn at checkpoint

[serene ocean]

Ah yeah didn't know how far in the list it was idk what he used first sadly

[coarse hull]

the checkpoint at the door before the boss

[daring tartan]

How can I enter Aggorat? im at the part where it says enter aggorat and im at these large stairs but theres no entrance?

[opal eagle]

I did that and also reloaded

still bugged

[coarse hull]

rip

[rotund oxide]

? which one should we pick?

[frank sonnet]

you can change it any time, which do you prefer?

[rotund oxide]

idk whatevres better

[humble temple]

how do I get 3 slots for my support?

[rotund oxide]

does it even regenerate in battle?

[serene ocean]

Jewellers orb

[humble temple]

ty

[frank sonnet]

you will drop an item called lesser jeweller's orb, first one is a guaranteed drop in the first zone of act 3 afaik

[serene ocean]

Start of act 3 there's a place that has a guaranteed one

[humble temple]

ah

is it possible to get it before act 3?

[coarse hull]

yes

random drops

[trim turret]

Does what regenerate in battle?

[old cradle]

So is the quest "Hostile Takeover" to "Talk to Ange in your hideout" bugged? I can't complete it

[coarse hull]

its kinda buggy, you can either talk to her in king's march or talk to her in the shore hideout you just unlocked (this worked for me)

[rotund oxide]

the charms

[old cradle]

Alright thanks. So I had to talk to her in Kingsmarch to swap hideout to the Shoreline Hideout, and talk to her in that specific hideout.

[trim turret]

Yes, the only way to get charms is by killing /damaging enemies so they need to work in battle.

[gaunt bluff]

Hunter class good or decent

[thorn bronze]

how do i know if the monster have haste?

[humble temple]

for echoing frost if the enemy still has chilled will it still be considered as "recently" or do I need to keep applying it?

[trim turret]

If you put together a decent build, sure. Classes can do a lot of different things.

[thorn bronze]

how do i know if the monster have haste?

[waxen osprey]

are interludes essentially random maps with bosses or do they have special things to discover?

[quick pike]

there are unlock , skills,res stuff

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/guides/campaign-loot-normal#overview-0

[quick pike]

only a few of them have haste aura https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/guides/companions-tame-beast

[waxen osprey]

is this list complete?

[quick pike]

probably not , best way would be to search on poe2db https://poe2db.tw/us/Monster

you could search a monster name and see its buffs

like this https://poe2db.tw/us/Vaal_Guard

[granite garden]

Does cast speed affect shooting with a crossbow at all?

[final geyser]

Attack Speed does, you're not casting Spells when shooting your Crossbow.

[trim turret]

No. You're attacking with your crossbow.

[granite garden]

Cheers

[neon robin]

Anyone else having problems with loading into the game? I can't enter world on any of my characters (new or old).
Yesterday everything went fine, nothing changed except a game update on steam.
Now I'm infinitely stuck in the loading screen, already tried verifying data integrity, changing from dx12 to vulkan and stuff like that.
What's weird is, that after a few seconds of loading screen I can hear the sounds as if im finally loading into the world, but the loading screen just doesn't go away...

[daring tartan]

Act 3 is so fucking cancer

[azure lava]

#2┃general unless you had a question about it

[daring tartan]

Yea ive ran around the entirety of aggorat and cant find the blood sacrifice

[buoyant cloud]

Is "The Search" in Act 4 mandatory to complete the act? Derp nvm - I was thinking of forgotten bounty, with appears to be options. pheeew as I missed 1 treasure map and dont want to go back through it right now

[azure lava]

It's usually in the northeast portion of the agorrat

[midnight remnant]

why mobs dont get cursed ?

[daring tartan]

Yea ive searched the entire map its full cleared

[coarse hull]

check gem tool tip

[vagrant thorn]

what is the best ?

[midnight remnant]

what you mean ?

[vagrant thorn]

I think i need too choose one

its from a quest

[azure lava]

Check their prices on the trade site if you can't decide

[coarse hull]

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Rise of the Abyssal

[azure lava]

Can you post a screenshot of your tabbed out map?

[coarse hull]

check what the gems says like this

[azure lava]

What gems are socketed in blasphemy?

Everything can be good in the right build and with enough investment

[daring tartan]

How do i zoom out all of the way?

ive ran all edges

[tardy mauve]

thanks...

[azure lava]

Options-interface

Minimap zoom

You can also pan the minimap screen with the arrow keys

I have no idea what you "should" do. It's your build. I don't know the deflection formula nor do I know what you'd be sacrificing to get more deflect

[daring tartan]

Theres no minimap zoom in interface

[azure lava]

Maybe it's game tab? It's a slider bar

[red lintel]

does skill effect duration affect corrupted blood?

[azure lava]

Hold alt and click on corrupted blood. If it's an ailment, then the answer is no

[tardy mauve]

does anyone know what is the difference?

[azure lava]

Hold alt and hover over detonation time

[frank sonnet]

have you moused over where it says detonation time?

[tardy mauve]

yea, that doesn't help at all

[azure lava]

What skill is it?

[red lintel]

its not an ailment, but im not sure bc it's from the unique mod instead of corrupting cry

[tardy mauve]

grenade

explosive grenade

[azure lava]

What support gems are on it?

[tardy mauve]

short fuse and multishot

short fuse effect both

[lucid canopy]

which island gives the extra spirit?

[azure lava]

I think fuse duration is base amount (with duration modifiers) and detonation time is the actual time to detonate after fuse-specific modifiers

But you said it affects both, so hmm

[serene ocean]

Far right interlude

[lucid canopy]

Thanks

[tired ingot]

why can't i socket this gem into the 4th slot even though I can swap it with the 1st one ?

[frank sonnet]

it will say something is incompatible

[tired ingot]

and if I swap it I can't socket the gree one in the 4th slot

[frank sonnet]

what gem is it?

[azure lava]

Which gems are those?

[tired ingot]

nova projectile and wildshards

[azure lava]

Yeah read them carefully

[tired ingot]

There are no message wen I click on the slot

[noble lynx]

The other day one of the Green rifts produced a hole which I jumped in but realized up top I was right next to boss. Decided fight him first but died. Then when I came back hole was gone. Figured it would open on some other rift for me to explore but it hasn't. Did I miss it permanently? What was in there?

[azure lava]

The rifts are random spawns and when you die the instance resets. There will be more

[tired wedge]

How do you get lesser essence of flames? First timer here and keep coming across these ritual looking things.

[noble lynx]

OK. Thx

[azure lava]

Essences come from essence monsters. They're the monsters that look like they're frozen in ice

[tired wedge]

I’ve only ever seen those once, and I’m like level 25 now.

[boreal quartz]

is there a reason why people want to use tornado shot and then specifically put less duration on its support gems?

[azure lava]

Rng is rng. I'm not sure how common they are

[noble lynx]

Have seen at least a dozen rifts since but none have been accessible below, was worried

[azure lava]

Yeah the accessible ones are much rarer

[boreal quartz]

I thought you want more duration for a skill like tornado shot

[frank sonnet]

I'm level 50 and I've seen maybe 10 in total

[azure lava]

Duration is beneficial, but it may or may not be more beneficial than other mods. Everything has an opportunity cost

[boreal quartz]

no like crouching tuna's tornado shot specifically has compressed duration

[tired ingot]

oh god it took me so long to see that

thanks

I was looking for level requirement or something

[tired wedge]

Ah so they are somewhat rare then I suppose. Just thought I’d ask as I’ve seen those rituals requiring the essences pretty much since I started, just felt annoying having to leave every single one behind

[azure lava]

Can you link the guide? I cannot see a reason why it would be used. It could be a typo or some weird tech I don't know of

[dull leaf]

why are my waypoints all over the place 🗿

i literally cant tp to some of them

[frank sonnet]

looks like your shit is borked 😄 maybe try validating game files?

[boreal quartz]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/lightning-arrow-deadeye#skills-header

It's worth noting that I legit hopped into his stream and then he stated that it was a mistake so lol

[azure lava]

Lmao

[boreal quartz]

yeah it's prolonged duration now

[frank sonnet]

"some kinda duration, fuck it" 😄

[mental needle]

Is there a way to turn off the rare mob's regen in Kaom's trial in act 4 or is it just a damage check?

[true turtle]

what this?

[azure lava]

#1┃new-player-in-campaign-help also rare mobs have randomized stats so you can skip it or make a new instance

[mental needle]

It doesn't have the regen affix

also this is in poe2

[green kite]

can you get a merchant tab before you beat the campaign?

[azure lava]

oh, my bad, I haven't gotten to act 4 yet

[azure lava]

you can get a merchant tab from the shop whenever you want

[neat lagoon]

can someone help me with jamanra the abomination ?

[azure lava]

#2┃looking-for-group

get lightning res

[safe hornet]

i can't find this ingame any help?

[trail lodge]

yes but you can't use it till you get to act 4

[green kite]

I bought one last season but I don't seem to have it anymore. the description for the merchant tab says I have to speak to someone in my hideout

[azure lava]

there was no "mini", my bad

[unborn notch]

Late start bc of family stuff. What's the strongest starter at this point?

[green kite]

oh I had to set it to public nm

[azure lava]

if anyone says they know the strongest starter in the game after two days, they're trying to sell you something

[unborn notch]

Eh, I feel like you can kinda tell which starters are really strong by day 2 or 3 poe1 leagues

[azure lava]

you can get a list of good ones, yeah

but "strongest" is incredibly hard to define, let alone select

[unborn notch]

Fair enough. What's the meta looking like rn?

[azure lava]

no idea

[mental needle]

Most people rolling Deadeye

[safe hornet]

any1 knows?

[azure lava]

since its level 20, I'm guessing it comes from a unique item or something?

[echo mountain]

so the follow wisp in kriar is bugged?

[mental needle]

They removed/renamed a lot of support gems

ruthless is likely one of them

[safe hornet]

i see, ty

[azure lava]

yeah ruthless is no longer a cuttable support gem it seems

[exotic quail]

i got this spear, should i swap to lightning spear on my deadeye ?

it also feels like lightning arrow is just overall slow clearing stuff

and damaging

[azure lava]

only if you have a time machine back to 0.2

[exotic quail]

it cant be that bad

[azure lava]

I mean, probably not. Check the price of that spear. that should be a gauge of how good it is

at least how good it's perceived to be

[exotic quail]

ik the price for it, i just dont know if LS on deadeye is better than my current LA build

[trail lodge]

probably

[exotic quail]

my current build feels like it clears very slowly

[scarlet latch]

have people been dropping Chaos Orbs during the campaign? ive had about 5 drop now.

1 regal orb 😂

[mental needle]

Lightning arrow has relatively high gear reqs to be your sole clearing skill

[exotic quail]

everything has tho

[craggy furnace]

guys how can i see how many damage can i block without being staggered? is there a stagger meter or something? or its just pure instinct

[trail lodge]

like what? you need a bow with flat atk and gloves

[mental needle]

Stun bar is above your flasks

[craggy furnace]

tyy

[azure lava]

it's not damage, but stun buildup. Some mobs inflict more/less stun, but it's based on their damage

[humble temple]

if i get all 3 of the echoing element in the monk skill tree do I get 90% if I have all procced or how does it work?

[hot ledge]

uhhhh

[azure lava]

and it's also based on your stun threshold

[hot ledge]

i should be hogging the armor quality upgrade thingies right

whetstone

[mental needle]

Yeah if you're playing an active block build you really want stun threshold

[azure lava]

that's exactly how it works, yeah. They're three distinct buffs that can stack

[frank sonnet]

they aren't especially rare but also they aren't especially good during campaign

[craggy furnace]

but my stun meter only goes up when i block? only when i block right?

[hot ledge]

im act 1 rn

do i keep 'em

[humble temple]

and if I have something that is like 1-5 dmg can I shock or ignite?

[frank sonnet]

it doesn't really matter too much

[dusky burrow]

shocks get discarded if the magnitude is too small

[hot ledge]

uhhhh ok

[humble temple]

wdym magnitude?

[dusky burrow]

and ignite needs flammability which is detrmined by damage dealt

basically if you deal vry little damage

you;re not going to get said ailments

[azure lava]

hold alt and click stuff to read more about it

[dusky burrow]

oh wait i was using the poe1 definition of how shock works

but still, chance to shock scales with relative damage dealt

so low damage = low chance

[azure lava]

if you do less than 4% of their ailment threshold, you have 0% shock chance

[jade bridge]

I'm confused by Bringer of Flame, do you just slap it on your build and now all the sudden you can inflict good Ignites? What is the ideal skill scenario to take it in?

[fickle sinew]

Can somebody help me kill azmadi? literally lost boss of the campaign for me and ive tried like 20 times lol

[dusky burrow]

for example, if you have a spell you want to ignite with and it doesnt have flat fire and you can't convert, you can use that to convert

[azure lava]

when you (and/or your allies) do lots of non-fire damage and you want to ignite stuff

[dusky burrow]

or a minion, or if you have an attack weapon with a lot of damage but its not fire

etc. etc.

[dusky burrow]

#2┃looking-for-group

[finite depot]

With the blackflame covenant passive node do you still build up Fire/ignite and spell damage increases or switch to taking increases to chaos damage?

[jade bridge]

So lets say I want to have a bunch of skeletons + Unearth, and I take passives to buff minion damage and physical / spell damage, now all of this starts triggering a bunch of small ignites since their individual damage is all low? And only 1 of those small ignites at a time actually does damage?

[dusky burrow]

modifiers to fire damage will nto work because it gets converted first

[mental needle]

You need to scale chaos, read the convert keyword

[dusky burrow]

yeah, so dont use it on a lot of small hits

that's not good for ignite

[frank sonnet]

converted damage forgets it was fire damage, fire modifiers don't do anything - you'll need chaos modifiers

this is different to poe1

[dusky burrow]

generic spell damage will still work the same

[vital silo]

is there a complete set for the Exile's Hood?

[jade bridge]

So is this also true for Bleed, for example I don't want to use Bleed with Bone Storm because it is a "death by a thousand cuts" type of spell?

[azure lava]

if you're using a fire spell, then fire damage no longer works, but chaos will now work. Spell damage and any other modifiers to the damage will also work. For example, if you're using a fire projectile spell, then projectile damage will also help you do more damage and thus build more flammability

[dusky burrow]

yes

[jade bridge]

And also Poison I assume

They all scale on the amount of damage you did in the applying hit

[azure lava]

poison maybe less so, but only if you get higher poison limit

[finite depot]

Got it, so I was still going the right path with only taking spell dmg increases for now. Didn’t know if it was an iffy thing where the fire damage was calculated first and then the chaos dmg was based off that or not. Thank you!

[frank sonnet]

bleeding is 15% of the hit's damage over time and only the biggest bleed applies, poison is slightly different. Easiest way to learn about dot mechanics is to check the wiki

[azure lava]

poison has no inherent chance, either

[mental needle]

All DoTs scale on the hit damage, poison can have more than 1 poison though so it's a little less punishing for applying a lot

[azure lava]

poison chance ONLY comes from things that explicitly grant chance to poison

[unborn notch]

are crossbows bugged rn I can't use mouse buttons to attack with them at all

[jade bridge]

Ok, tyvm, this is getting a little more clear

[azure lava]

do keyboard buttons work? or are you saying you can't shoot any of them?

[azure lava]

when in doubt, hold alt and click underlined keywords

[unborn notch]

oh I think I see there's a separate button to load ammo vs fire generic crossbow skill

[jade bridge]

I do that often, it is just a lot to take in and the keywords being so specific and technical in their explanation is a double edged sword

They're precise, but assume greater knowledge

[azure lava]

do they? If they require knowledge of something else, you can just click the underlined word you don't understand

you can pop out as many help boxes as you want

[jade bridge]

😛 do not deny the reality of your game, come on now. PoE 1 was impenetrable and 2 is maybe just as impenetrable

Half the game is learning what the keywords mean

[azure lava]

the fact that you can hold alt and click underlined keywords makes it WORLDS easier to learn

I learned basically everything I know about poe2 from those text boxes

[jade bridge]

I mean that part does help yeah

I used to learn from the wiki and I still use it to supplement

[mental needle]

Poe2 is much easier to understand

for now...

[jade bridge]

Maybe I just feel like it has weird gotchas then, like thinking Unearth was gonna be useful prior to this patch then finding out you don't have a good way to generate corpses during bosses

[mental needle]

There are ways to generate corpses

[plain ridge]

You need to talk in Shoreline Hideout

[mental needle]

namely Sacrifice spirit gem

which allows you to use minions as corpses

[final meadow]

Guys, how do I avoid Yama’s white wipe mechanic? Is there a specific pillar?

[azure lava]

plenty of skills have varying usefulness vs boss and vs trash. Unearth is a great tool in aoe scenarios

[hazy stump]

Act 3 town keeps freezing on me and I have to reset the game. Anyone else

👆

[jade bridge]

When you combo Contagion with Unearth what stage of Contagion gets applied to your minion? Does it reset to stage 1 or maintain the stage that killed the monster?

[tired nacelle]

Is the goddess of justice something in the abandoned prison that is supposed to grey out after doing something? I went through the entire area and it still shows on the map as a thing of interest

[mental needle]

Same for me, it's just lore from what I can tell

[noble jetty]

any suggestion for atlas tree? i'm always lost when it come to atlas tree

[hollow scaffold]

is arastas bugged for anyone? cant go into the church

[neat spindle]

Can anyone help me kill Tavakal in act 4 please?

[noble jetty]

sure msg Larelola ingame

[jade bridge]

Does Brutality double dip on Unearth then by making the spell itself and the minions do 25% more damage?

[signal raptor]

Anyone know what a weapon set point is and where do I use it? Tried googling and searching discord but cant understand it

[foggy forge]

Had to log off after beating the viper chick and my quest updated but she’s still there. Do I have to beat her again to progress?

[elder edge]

can you use two of the same gem that are different tiers?

[strange vigil]

what trade channel are people using 820 seems to be dead ?

[sage raptor]

is there any way we can share map progress?
I mean the fog of war on level

super annoying palying with someone and we dont share this

[vital silo]

lmao the stuff from the new mystery box MTX was briefly available for purchase from the store what a bug

[tired nacelle]

I see, thanks

[sage raptor]

yeah
I was happy to see that not all is RNG

[native lagoon]

where do i find the seven pillars buff? i looked all over Qimah and can't find anything

[dusky maple]

So, I'm playing the Lighting Arrow/Rod Ranger build. Currently I'm level 26. Currently my skill gems are sitting at,
Lightning Arrow 3
Lightning Rod 3
Barrage 5
Freezing Salvo 5
Should upgrade the levels higher? At what level is too high and not worth it cause of the mana cost?

[azure lava]

if you're not sure, take the level 3 gem out, cut a level 4/5 new one, put it in, see if it works. If it's too costly, put the level3 back in

until you start adding sockets/quality to gems, there;s no drawback to cutting an entirely new gem

[dusky maple]

Alright, I'll try that

Cause like I'm killing stuff, but not exactly quickly

[jade bridge]

@azure lava how do you know if a support works on both the spell portion and the minion portion? Is it in the wording of "Supported SKILLS deal 25% more physical" vs. Controlled Destruction specifies "SPELLS" deal more damage on hit?

I'm also guessing Brutality buffs the bone scorpions becauase you can put it on Skel Warriors

[azure lava]

of gem levels, your weapon, passive tree, and support gems, having a level 5 gem vs level 3 is probably not the biggest piece of that pie

[jade bridge]

Actually is that a good way to check for if something buffs the scorpions in general? Like if you can place it on a pure minion skill, it will likely work on the scorpions?

[azure lava]

it's all about the tags and what the specifics say, yeah. You can also socket it and check the gem detail panel

[dusky maple]

So, the difference between both aren't that big in terms of damage? Meaning it's my stats that are causing me to not deal that much damage?

[buoyant jolt]

Really cant decide between going Deadeye, or something like Lich/infernalist, any tips?

[azure lava]

your "stats" are a combination of all four of those

your gems, passive tree, and items all make up your stats

[jade bridge]

pick what skills you want to use first, then pick the subclass that supports those skills

[azure lava]

examine your weapon (and quiver, gloves, rings, and antyhing else that can give you damage), your support gems, and tree

if your build feels lacking, it's likely one (or more) of those three that has an issue

two gem levels for an attack build isn't going to make or break it

[dusky maple]

I mean items, not stats. I'm just following a build guide from maxroll. The the gems and passive tree i can follow, except it doesnt explain when to upgrade gems and what not and from what I can find, there's no real priority list in terms of item stats that I want

[azure lava]

yeah because all the 0.3 guides were made in the last 48 hours, tops

[sage raptor]

is there any way we can share map progress?
I mean the fog of war on level

super annoying playing with someone and we dont share this

[azure lava]

nope

maybe couch co-op solves that, but I'm not sure

[sage raptor]

kinda hope they add it in some update

[azure lava]

if you're following a guide then 9/10 times low damage means you have a bad/outdated/unsocketed weapon

or the guide is bad

but my money is on bad gear

[golden bay]

guys what do i do with yoon barya and rangeen barya?

[dusky maple]

My bow is item level 11 and I'm level 26

[orchid sonnet]

Sorry if this has been asked to death but pre 0.3 patch I bought some trade tabs. I just reached act 4. How do I add them to Ange?

[azure lava]

that's actually an abomination of a bow, then

but the stats are what really matter

the affixes

[dusky maple]

27-40 damage

[mental needle]

I white dualstring bow is probably going to outperform that tbh

ok it definitely will

[azure lava]

compare the damage values (or dps if you wanna calculate it) to the highest level bow base in the vendor

odds are a white or blue bow will beat yours

[dusky maple]

I'm 2 levels away from being able to get Duslstring to drop

[azure lava]

I doubt that

what level is the highest zone you're in?

[golden bay]

on hardcore do i lose any progress if i die or do i just turn into abyss league softcore

[azure lava]

item drops are based on area level, not your level

[dusky maple]

How can I tell?

[azure lava]

you get moved to abyss softcore. your hardcore abyss stash is untouched

[mental needle]

overlay map (tab) look at top right it will tell you zone level and other info.

[mental needle]

or that

[dusky maple]

Oh. 24 then

[azure lava]

so you're still actually 2 levels away, technically

[orchid sonnet]

Sorry if this has been asked to death but pre 0.3 patch I bought some trade tabs. I just reached act 4. How do I add them to Ange?

[azure lava]

because rare mobs drop items 2 ilvls above the zone level

[mental needle]

Either way you can easily get an upgrade that isn't a dual string

Just a blue bow with a decent phys roll will do until then (if it's a decent base ofc.)

[jade bridge]

Is there any way to tell if something like Minion Pact support damage gets transferred in Contagion when you use Unearth on a Cont Corpse?

Like do corpses snapshot Contagion as it was when it killed them?

[azure lava]

all the damage of the chaos dot debuffs gets transferred via contagion

[jade bridge]

Right, but is it snapshotted? Like if you had a stage 3 contagion with +200% more damage killing a corpse, does the bone scorpion you form from the corpse start spreading stage 3 again or does it reset to stage 1?

[strong inlet]

any idea if arc still has its unique chaining behavior?

[azure lava]

what do you mean by unique chaining behavior

[azure lava]

it has the +200% I'm pretty sure, but I'm not certain how it interacts with minions

[echo grotto]

How do I change my Venom Draught?

[azure lava]

make a new character

[warped hazel]

Need help, my minions are gone, in my skill tap it shows that they are active but when I go back to the home it shows my spirit isn’t being used. Why?

[azure lava]

are they activated? ie, is the spiral swirly moving on the skill icon in the gem panel?

this thing

[echo mountain]

wtf is this

[mental needle]

It appears to be Zolin the Blood Priest

[echo mountain]

this bitch just glitched. i already killed her then she just went immortal

[worn temple]

How do you set which weapon to use for which skill on controller?

[somber wedge]

When should I start buying Jewelers Orbs to invest into my skills?

Just hit act 4

[mental needle]

No need to buy lessers

you will get them passively and from quest rewards

[somber wedge]

Yeah I’ve got plenty of those

[mental needle]

As for greater you can do it whenever if you're confident you're sticking with that skill

But your money is better spent on a weapon before that IMO

[azure lava]

when the power:cost ratio of adding sockets to your skills outweighs the power:cost ratio of all other available build upgrades

[somber wedge]

Fair enough. It’s always going to be situational based on your build

Guess I just haven’t interacted much with the market and the later game before so I need to do some learning

[clear vine]

How many total ascendancy points do you get?

[jade bridge]

So if I were going to try and create a build that used Unearth to spread my Contagion, realistically I'd need to focus on personal chaos damage for my Contagion to really do anything? I can't really hybridize into minion and personal damage like you could in PoE 1?

[mental needle]

8, so you get 4 notable nodes

[sage raptor]

what are those tied people called?
wanna see the lore but idk what to look for

[twin burrow]

~~How do you command the raptor pet?~~Found it. You get a new skill.

[strong inlet]

arc used to be able to chain between 3 enemies repeatedly in a loop

at least i think it did

[azure lava]

nothing about that behavior was mentioned in the patch notes

[strange vigil]

How do I find someone to carry me through a campaign boss? last league there was a ton of people now I can’t find anyone

[jade bridge]

Byron do you know the answer regarding spreading contagion via unearth? I'm greedy and want all parts of this to be good, but realistically only the minions or the contagion can actually be good?

(or the direct hit physical damage of unearth I guess.. but that won't scale with minions OR contagion!)

This is what I mean when I say this game feels more complicated than 1 even, in 1 I would just make skeletons to toss Dark Pact at and take the nodes that buffed minion damage, and a notable that made minion damage buff my damage

In this I have 1 spell that wants to scale in 3 differerent directions that don't overlap very well if at all

Unless I'm misunderstanding something

[azure lava]

#2┃looking-for-group , but carries were never really the intention of that channel and/or this server

[strange vigil]

i ment like in game i feel like i always come across a boss that is just imposable with my build either they are mega resistent to my chosen element or just randomly kill me in like 2 hits lol

[jade bridge]

That all sounds like problems with your build to me, you have to account for resistance by having res pierce or armour break, and you need defenses

[azure lava]

I missed the original question, probably. If a monster dies while affected by contagion then it should allow the bone constructs to apply it

[jade bridge]

Right, I'm actively doing that right now

[strange vigil]

does the faridun prince do ele dmg i got 1.2k hp and 1.2k Es

[azure lava]

There are ways to negate enemy resistances and there are ways to build defenses to counter one-shots. I'd recommend checking out the gearing guide in #1308715317375270952

[azure lava]

so what was your question?

[jade bridge]

The question I guess is, is there any way to scale both my personal chaos damage, my pet scorpion damage from Unearth, and the on-hit damage of Unearth all at once?

I'm guessing the answer is no, not really, outside of edge cases like maybe Brutality support (which doesn't scale Contagion but I think scales the spell hit AND the minion damage)

[azure lava]

aside from + level to spells, not really

or weapon swapping for chaos nodes vs minion nodes vs physical spell damage nodes

[jade bridge]

That is a good point

[azure lava]

could have one tree for generic spell damage and one for minion nodes

[jade bridge]

I could have a chaos node / weapon and a phys / pet, that is perfect actually

[azure lava]

use spell set for contagion + unearth cast, then swap to minion tree

[jade bridge]

The problem then becomes, if I have offhand scepter for boners and then weapon swap they all die

[azure lava]

you can weapon swap to the same weapon(s), can't you?

[errant wind]

i need help, i have the quest to speak to ange in my hideout but when i try theres nothing going on?

[azure lava]

I guess it would mean you lose out on a focus for spell damage

[jade bridge]

I think it forces you to swap both hands at once and if your 2nd set has an empty offhand you just loes your boners

and you can't put the same item in both sets

[azure lava]

oh, I thought they said they were going to add support for same-weapon swapping ages ago

but I guess it never made it in

[jade bridge]

Did they? I mean I can investigate further

It would make sense to let you only swap your mainhand or offhand

[muted linden]

Hey am I able to portal to town from abyssal depths? or will I not be able to go back? want to stash some loot

[azure lava]

if you can make a portal, it should be able to take you back

[jade bridge]

Well, I think you're on to something Byron because I forgot about weapon slot specific talent points and that does help, but it just won't work with bone scepter in either hand

I will see what happens if I manage to get 2, but chances are it will be tough to match spirit total etc..

[azure lava]

yeah, imo, unearth is kinda fucked for trying to do multiple things with it

I think the whole witch/occult "fantasy" of doing chaos, minions, and phys spells all at once is more of a pipe dream

they're just not synergistic enough

[jade bridge]

At least we have weapon passives, that was meant to bridge this sort of thing as you said

[azure lava]

like, you can kinda make ice/cold/fire spells work because "elemental damage" exists and you don't need an entirely different type of weapon for each kind

[jade bridge]

it just gets messy with persistant minions from weapons

this is essentially an edge case 😛 because most of the persistant minion skills are not weapon reliant

so like if I was willing to go Archers instead of Warriors for example this would be a lot less messy (but also Scepter is what gives me +100 spirit on top of the free minions...)

idk this seems like the biggest argument to let you only swap 1 slot or the other that I've seen so far

and it IS weird that they push this combo so hard right at the start of Witch, you usually want to go with your best foot forward 😛

not the most complicated to scale skill that does your head in

Archers in tier 1 having an active that deals poison damage is ALSO fucking weird honestly because you don't get any more poison support in Occult iirc

[noble lynx]

I'm in singing caverns and see there's a hideout here but can't figure out how to access it. Help?

[boreal current]

I'm losing my mind. I have hollow palm activated. I just found a new helmet with 250 evasion from my old like 40 evasion one. When I equip it my DPS on ice strike goes DOWN!

Storm Peak : 1698dps
Oblivion Star: 1571dps

I lose like 40 damage per hit when i equip that hunter hood versus having nothing equipped even

[knotty current]

hello i found the body for venom draught but it didnt drop. Tried it again but nothing. What can i do?

[dawn yew]

how do i get back to utzaal after starting act 4

[tacit prism]

Anyone doing trial carries 8pt?

[sage raptor]

so I need to open second gate in halani gates
but there is no way to do that
all NPCs dead and cant do anything

[noble jetty]

why is the third slot is still locked if there are 6 modifier?

[mental needle]

Sometimes asala gets stuck at the first gate lever

[sage raptor]

went there and there was nothing

so we can only restart level?

[mental needle]

It has hybrid mods, press alt, it's not 6 mod

[noble jetty]

thx

[fickle ember]

is some1 able to help me with act 2 boss quick?
