[maiden ledge]

is the kedge bay one in journey's end or in the bay?

[quick pike]

bay

[gray elk]

When will this staff fall off for me? I really like it but I was told by my guild it’s probably only good for early in the league

[daring rapids]

is elemental weakness bugged for anyone?

its not applying for some reason

[quick pike]

a +2 to level will be better

[shut monolith]

Can someone help for 2nd ascendacy trial of chaos?

[spare flume]

anyone know if shapeshifting between animals counts for "shapeshifted to an animal form recently"? Or does that only activate when you go from human to animal

[quick pike]

someone said that a streamer tested it and it's doesn't work

[spare flume]

thanks

[gray elk]

Fr? One of my guildies said you get capped by mana late game so the paper %dmg from +level is less in reality

[silk thistle]

Really struggling with the Endboss of Act 2. Idk what Im doing wrong or why Im struggling that much. Act 1 boss was a breeze compared to this one 😭

[midnight briar]

how does mana on hit works in party do I need final hit to kill mob or just 1 hit and then someone finish it

[floral knoll]

is bleed rake amazon viable in this league?

or should I just do something else

[quick pike]

• to skills for spells is really good , all build guides have +6 -4 from the wand and 2 from focus , the mana thing was more for melee

[gray elk]

Oh ok, ty

[lucid hamlet]

Is using a shapeshift skill while already shapeshifted count as "recently"?

[azure wren]

Thanks for the steps to try and fix it

[static patio]

what do i do there is no green enemies left?

[hearty walrus]

'on hit' gives you mana each time you hit an enemy

[light ginkgo]

Hi
If the passive says 'You gain xy buff if you have shapeshifted to an animal recently'
Do I get the buff If I'm constantly in animal form or no?

[hearty walrus]

'recently' means 'last 4 seconds'

[midnight briar]

I ment on kill sorry

[light ginkgo]

So you only get the benefits if you constantly switch back and forth

[hearty walrus]

that would be when you kill

[manic marten]

noob question guys, but what does the "2" in the Arc skill icon represent? could it be because I equipped it with the support Unleash and that represents its 2 'Seals'? or is it something else?

[topaz junco]

exactly that

its the seals from unleash

[manic marten]

thank you @topaz junco 🙂

[noble summit]

why isnt this boss phasing? ive been standing here for 5 minutes, i reset zone a couple times too

[cerulean bay]

hey guys i wanna put a 3rd support gem for my druid's rend (wyvern). is it possible to do so as i saw someone on yt have 3 support slots

and i cant even use lesser orb on it

[trim condor]

every league I spend maybe more than a hour in this area to find molten vault: it's driving me crazy 😅

[lost tusk]

slots are tied to item level if theyre weapon gems

p sure

also um like? anyone else having an issue where the game is using 90% of their cpu even when just idle on a map

[cerulean bay]

so in this case i just need a higher level talisman?

[lost tusk]

cpu usage goes way down when i limit fps to lower than 60

best results at 1 fps.

[cobalt zinc]

this is the blind beast no? I never got dropped the skill points and it shows incomplete, is there a fix?

[topaz junco]

higher item level, but yes

[cerulean bay]

gotcha, appreciate it

[silk thistle]

Any Advice on the Jamanra fight? I have no chance vs him right now and i dont know what to do

[flint plume]

Lightning res helps a lot

[quick pike]

get a life flask with gains 0.15+ charges per second ,maybe a better weapon

[silk thistle]

Where do I get some?

[flint plume]

Gear. Topaz rings

[silk thistle]

I got the amor mandragora changeling talisman legendary, feels pretty good.

[pliant glade]

Does anyone know around what time in campaign u get lvl 9 spirit gem?

[spare flume]

thoughts on best poison vial reward for druid? Stun threshold vs. elemental ailmant threshold?

[silk thistle]

Where do I get that

[trim turret]

Random drops and checking vendors, crafting, using runes.

[waxen osprey]

do molten fissures (like from the new druid bear skill) deal damage only once, even if I activate multiple at the same time? or does each fissure deal damage (5 fissures activated dealing 5x the damage)?

[spare flume]

I think when you use something like fury of the mountain to make a fissure it only activates that newly made fissure. You need something like shockwave totem down at the same time to activate all the previously made fissures

[neat sage]

does anyone know why nova projetiles doesn't work on my poisonburst arrows?

[warm cargo]

why are the items in my inventory invis?

[waxen osprey]

my question was more like: if I activate all previously made fissures at once - is that merely a larger AoE effect or do they also deal more damage versus a single target compared to merely activating 1?

[warm cargo]

aswell as the potion icons bottom left

[quick pike]

bug , I've see other ppl with the same bug on the poe2 reddit , I've had it too for like 2 sec , I've been deleting the shader cache every 4-5 h

[warm cargo]

so i need to clear the cache?

[quick pike]

worth a try

[warm cargo]

alr thanks

[rigid dragon]

guys is it just me or are we super poor during campaign again?

I'm like starving

[quick pike]

I've been getting a good amount of exalts in ssf

[rigid dragon]

just finished act 2 ive played 0.1 and 0.3 I don't remember being that poor before, I have nothing

bear is carrying me hard with my 10/10/10 resistances

[quick pike]

do the temple,check vendors

[rigid dragon]

i dont check vendors every level but like.

[glacial prawn]

is oracle worth it for the unseen path early game? like what the skills offer early on

[waxen osprey]

is there a way to increase the duration of "recently" effects (e.g. 4s after shapeshifting...)?

[edgy jacinth]

Should i even not worry about rarity on items in early acts?

[quick pike]

you change gear too fast to worry about it

[muted dragon]

do we lose the ability to mass ID gear in A4?

[buoyant jolt]

Ignagduk wont spawn I think, am I missing something?

[craggy gyro]

Should I be using my low level (spare) uncut gems on low level skills, even the ones I don't need, etc, or I can combine them, etc, to make high level ones?

[quick pike]

you can't combine them

[craggy gyro]

Soo only option to use on the skill level they belong to then?

Or just yeet?

[muted dragon]

@quick pike where do you mass ID in A4/kingsmarch then? Hooded doesn't seem to offer anymore

[red wolf]

Fucking bugged... Sin doesn't move

[quick pike]

check doryani , later he's the id npc

[muted dragon]

okay cool, thanks!

[signal nimbus]

any1 with "ghost/unlimited points" when u set them to a weapon set?

[sweet sun]

whats those for

[quick pike]

to sell for gold

[sweet sun]

oh

its saying quest item

[woven sigil]

my crossbow is loading the explosve shots but its not firing them

[dusk mortar]

When do ya'll ususally do your first trial?

[woven sigil]

lvl 22

[raw marsh]

Probably been asked before but quickest build just to beat act 1 and whatever other requirements to get the transmogs? Besides ranger as i did that o.3

[flat mist]

probably grenades

[woven sigil]

HELP PLEASEEEEEE

[raw marsh]

Which class?

[woven sigil]

mercenary

[novel gazelle]

No, the hooded one does it until endgame where doryiami takes over

[twin rivet]

hoo boy i feel squeeshy

[trim turret]

How are your life and resistances?

[trim turret]

Are you loading the ammo and then using the crossbow attack skill to fire? Are you using the correct attack if you have two crossbows equipped?

[woven sigil]

the ammo gets loaded but it doesnt shoot and yes i have 2 crossbows

[olive valve]

Evening all, id like to know what the right green part on the boss bar means ? The light green one means its poisoned, but the other one idk. As soon as the light green bar reach 0, the boss dies.
It also happens with bleeding, with light red and and darker one

[dusk mortar]

Did they add more acts this league? Or is it still just the three epiloge half zones?

[twin rivet]

oh they are bad i just started a druid. Not sure where to focus my defences. I died to the witch in the hut so quick

[trim turret]

Make sure you're using the "fire crossbow" skill or whatever it is called and make sure you're using the one for the crossbow that actually has the ammo loaded.

[trim turret]

Life and resistances are your two most important defenses.

[novel gazelle]

Same 4 acts and 3 interludes

[trim turret]

Still probably bleeding, the boss just also happens to be poisoned.

Or its showing the damage the poison will do.

Not positive.

[south sparrow]

How do you get sockets on Talisman skills?

[quick pike]

they are based on the character lvl

[craggy gyro]

I'm looking druid build, any suggestion? I found these while looking one, but I'm not sure.
https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/7n9o0um4
https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/bear-druid-build-league-starter-to-endgame?weaponSet=set1

[dusk mortar]

I'm doing that second one, it's pretty solid

Guide isn't written the best. Really gotta read the remarks because it changes skill gem usage and the infographic doesn't change.

[craggy gyro]

Yeah kinda I guess for example weapon part is empty at equipment for example, that's bit confusing for me 😄 And ACT1-3 equipment is fully empty :U

[scarlet estuary]

how do crits with elemental ailments work in poe2?
do crits apply chill or freeze or both? or just increased buildup? or no effect

[wanton island]

can some one party with me i am hard stuck on act 3 vall quest i keep dcinging when i go to insert the core , need some one to use it for me stuck for 2 hours now on this quest pls some one party

[dusk mortar]

Gear is pretty easy, just more damage and armor.

[olive valve]

Oh i see, the darkest part of the life boss means that he's bleeding, but shows as green because boss is poisoned right ?
Just a second question, why does the boss dies even when there is still the bleeding part up on his bar ?

[slate comet]

#2┃looking-for-group

[slate comet]

you probably have a skill/support that kills them when their remaining bleed is more than their health

[slow plume]

Not sure where mentioning this should go, but Cross Slash doesn't work like it says it does. It doesn't draw the Ice Fragments toward the center and then detonate them, it shoots them to the opposite side of the AoE of the Cross-Slash, crossing the center, and if they stop moving either because it caused them to touch an enemy or because the movement itself finished, then it detonates

[past kiln]

why does the top left only display shrine effect, herald and charm effects, but doesnt show like rage from using infernal cry?

[slow plume]

So it's better than it says it is

[slate comet]

rage is on your mana bar I think

[slow plume]

If your Fragments are to your side/behind you when you Cross-Slash, they will be moved forward. If the Fragments are in front of you, they will be moved behind you\

[near harness]

so what do i do in single target with a shield wall warrior? trying to do act 2 boss and i dont really hurt him much

[past kiln]

TY

horrendous change imo tho xD

[slate comet]

it's always been like this since poe1

think of it as rage isnt a buff it's a resource like mana or health

[past kiln]

wasnt rage displayed on the top left with a timer last league?

[slow plume]

idk if it was so last league but certainly at some point in PoE1's history

[slate comet]

was it? I didn't play a rage build last league so idk

[summer whale]

bruh...

[spiral patio]

is living bomb the only way to get fire infusion remnants?

[thorny geyser]

Do diffirent kind of jewels (ruby, saphire, emerald, etc) have different substat they can get?

[quick pike]

you can check all mods on poe2db

https://poe2db.tw/us/Modifiers

like https://poe2db.tw/us/Ruby#ModifiersCalc and https://poe2db.tw/us/Emerald#ModifiersCalc

[thorny geyser]

Thank you

[near harness]

how did i change which tab my stash opens to?
for some reason it ALWAYS defaults to my abyss tab in a folder now?
instead of my dump tab at the very left

[glass sinew]

alright so i am doing the prisoner fight and the boss just keeps healing i am immediatly hitting the ballistas right as it prompts but doesnt matter every time heal

[maiden ledge]

What do I do with this damned shark fin

[quick pike]

go the ngakhamu island and there's a woman on the right

[manic wolf]

[glass sinew]

alright can any1 help me with this Prisoner fight im get sick and tired of fighting him instantly hitting ballistas and all hes doing is healing

im running with a summoner but he isnt doing anything im soloing the fight but it isnt mattering hes still healing

[heady prairie]

is there a bug, i cant click the stone altar with the small core?

[quick pike]

maybe , try resetting the zone

[tardy lotus]

Hey i just beat balbala and obtained a green item but my quest is stuck at the same point, i explored the whole map of traitor's passage anyone knows what i'm missing there?

[heady prairie]

right click the green item in ur inventory if it grants something

[sweet sun]

how to unlock those extra hideouts?

[quick pike]

find the exit and proceed ,finish next zone too

[acoustic snow]

is it normal for any zone to load for a solid 15 seconds??

[quick pike]

no

you could try to delete the shader cache in appdata-roaming-poe2 folder , not sure if that will help

[subtle sigil]

Towns do. SSF is way faster loading

[acoustic snow]

cant do shit then, im playing on geforce now

[wide marten]

hi, anyone knows how to improve the "quality" of my basic attack?

[acoustic snow]

didnt have that issue before this league, no clue whats up, im on a brand new character with like 3 people in town

[flat mist]

i believe it's quality on your weapon

[magic nimbus]

Hi folks, what is the download size of the game? I would like to try the free weekend

[wide marten]

you just costed me a whetstone, and my basic attack quality did not go up

[manic marten]

This is my first time playing Sorceress, and I'm trying to understand this support gem guys, it does show that it should work with Sparks:

• the description in italics at the beginning says 'which sends Chaining Lightining Projectiles towards Drenched enemies.'
• the description in italics on the Coursing Current tab says 'from the Shocked enemies towards nearby Drenched enemies'
• the tooltip for Drenched says it's a debuff that causes enemies to be easier to Shock and Freeze

my question is... what applies the 'Drenched' debuff then? It sounds like the Chaining Lightning Projectiles will only chain from the shocked enemy towards (an already Drenched) enemy, if that's the case, what 'drenches' those enemies?

[dusky burrow]

thunderstorm (the skill gem) is probably your go-to for drenching enemies

[quick pike]

install size is 124 gb ,about that

[flat mist]

im sorry

[manic marten]

ah, I see, I was checking mostly under the skill gems for the Sorceress, which defaults to 'Elemental' skills, I just found Thunderstorm under the 'Primal' section. So, by itself Coursing Current won't work with Sparks unless I have another way of 'drenching' enemies, correct?

[dusky burrow]

yeah

[manic marten]

ty 🙂

[regal pilot]

I have a Sorcerer at level 46 I played at launch, then stopped for a while because I got a bit bored. Because the build basically just right-clicks everything and that was the best build to go for while I wanted to be using many cool spells, and now with all the new updates and a league, I’m a bit lost.

I don’t really understand what the endgame is in Path of Exile 2. Also, if I were to make a druid, would I have to level from the beginning again? Or should I just take my first character to max level first? what is the league?

Thanks!

[hearty walrus]

max level is not a goal most players have

you would have to go from level one if you want to play a new character

the league is 'fate of the vaal'. leagues are like seasons

[regal pilot]

and what does every new season bring?

[hearty walrus]

a new league mechanic and fresh economy

[regal pilot]

is there any other way to level up? or do I have to go through the same missions again if I want to level a druid

[hearty walrus]

there's no other way to level

[regal pilot]

ah could you also breifly tell me what the end game is

[hearty walrus]

I'm not really sure how to explain it. it's where most players spend 90% of their playtime.

[quick pike]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/resources/endgame-activities

[abstract pine]

build rake.bloodhunt good working with thunderous leap?

[minor scroll]

My Herald of Ice doesn't activate even though i have enough spirit. It says "not usable with current weapons set settings", i have a talisman equipped in main hand and a spear in off hand.

[regal pilot]

so is the endgame mostly done solo? and are you like competing for something or its just about getting stronger

[quick pike]

you can play in party too , party of 6

[hearty walrus]

there's no direct player competition and no content that requires a group

[quick pike]

it's more like you set your own goals , like if you want to try a build, farm for an expensive item , kill the hardest boss....

[rose pike]

is it normal to take more than 1 min to load into town? it loads into maps very fast, but town takes like forever

[glacial maple]

same problem here, it worked fine for the whole time, then I turned it off for a second and can;t turn it on again ever since :/

[minor scroll]

Me too twin

[past dust]

Is there somewhere I can learn how the rules of tile connectivity works with the Vaal dungeon building? I'm not sure what determines when two room cards are able to be connected.

[silk thistle]

How does gear progression work in the acts? I really really struggle with tankiness. Idk if its the gear or the class xd

I love the fact that in campaign you can literally glass cannon your way til the end, boss hits hard? No problem, you kill it faster.

[thorny relic]

No

[naive junco]

[cinder tiger]

Have I made a mistake by getting resistance tattoos and not attributes?

[wild bone]

Is there dueling in PoE2

[wide marten]

does anyone know how to improve the "quality" of the basic attack?

[graceful basalt]

where is the last 40 spirit in campaign?

[novel gazelle]

just support gems and weapon

[wide marten]

i did tried improving the weapon, it did not change that

also support gems don't have "quality" to improve

[wide marten]

these two does not help

[wide python]

yeah fk it lol, im so fed up of dying on Bear in act 1, feels horrendous

[static patio]

is my character bugged im nott getting wolves for using pounce

[elfin tulip]

[hearty walrus]

[tacit cobalt]

anyone got tips or can help with this act 1 final boss.

[hearty walrus]

cold resistance helps a lot

[tacit cobalt]

ye, its more i dont have the dps to keep his phases properly

if he hits a second frost mist phase i die because im out of flasks

[static patio]

does triggering through meta a skill have a skill cost?

[spiral sleet]

Is that new music i hear when you complete the trial of chaos?

[placid mulch]

Great graphics

[trim turret]

If you're using attacks try to improve your weapon or get a new one, make sure your damage dealing skills have support gems that actually increase damage as opposed to things that improve functionality or quality of life.

[tacit cobalt]

im using holow palm does that scail of a weapon. im trying to build a flicker strike build but idk if its possible

[trim turret]

So for that you want no weapon equipped and as much evasion and energy shield on your gear as possible. And gem level matters a ton for hollow Palm also.

[tacit cobalt]

im in act 1

is that viable

[gray elk]

How realistic is a 1-2 button build

[trim turret]

I know it got tweaked some but hollow Palm was amazing for leveling last league.

[tacit cobalt]

im trying to folow this dudes build but he doesnt use ficker in acts. so idk how he can say flicker strike starter league

[trim turret]

League starters are builds that don't require you to have existing currency or items, not that you have the build from act 1.

[tacit cobalt]

ye im using holow palm now but it feels terrible

[elfin tulip]

so I can use it...I thought it was read bc of some restriction for class o limit in attribute

[trim turret]

Is all your gear evasion or evasion/ES bases?

And you're upgrading your gems with higher levels?

[proven cape]

does loyalty gem still work if you are mounted on rhoa mount?

[tacit cobalt]

ye my hollow palm is level 5 with gem and level 8 with added mellee skills form staf

and ye all are ES and im missing 1 EV

this is what im folowing

[gray elk]

I've been running this with the lightning orb and the chain lightning

[ripe cape]

what is the difference between global physical dmg and without global?

[tacit cobalt]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/league-starter-hollow-palm-monk-fgkorbyn21?ws-ngf5-f7d82102-7e77-4a44-ad24-33b67e8ae7bf=activeVariantId%2C8 this is what im folowing

[trim turret]

Global will apply to spells as well I believe instead of being local to your weapon and applying only to attacks.

[abstract pine]

nerfed build the spear hunteress?

[proven cape]

actually does any support gem for rhoa mount even work when you are mounted on it? anyone knows?

[crimson sapphire]

dude wont move anywhere its constant trap between him and the door fog lol

[winter swan]

Does the oracles hidden passive for mana reservation not work on spectres? It’s 40 increases reservation efficiency for minions and 20% reduced for skills.. does that mean it’s actually just 20% increased for minions?

[placid creek]

How to find those goddamn Horn of Vastiri?

[hearty walrus]

you find pieces of it in different areas

[rancid tusk]

i saw a guide saying that contagion + poisonburst arrow gets better than contagion + LA around cemetery in act 1, but i just reached the cemetery and i can't see it being better.. i've tried both combos and LA just feels better and faster..
this is the build's link: https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/fubgun/builds/0-4-poisonburst-pathfinder-leveling-guide

[outer wadi]

when equipment becomes the thing that`s holdding you back, do you guys grind power through or just grind a campaign zone for a few runs until you get new gear?

[hard hollow]

WTF is this error

Is there a way to contact support for an item vanishing?

[placid creek]

probably i dont kill azarian

[pure fern]

can anyone help me with this weapon swap set up in dms

[maiden ledge]

How the hell do I get this quest item out of my inventory?

[shut wasp]

Drop it outside of city

[elfin tulip]

got my first spirit (herald of hash)...why if I activate it the spirit meter over mana goes from 30/30 to 0/30?

[hearty walrus]

because heralds reserve spirit to give you a permanent buff

someone can tell me this build is good for levelup or not ?

[young niche]

swear this node dosent work

i get less extra as fire and i consitently ignite but i get 0 shocks off

[quick geyser]

get something that creates shocked ground

[nimble fjord]

Can someone tell me without too much spoiler, what direction is a the new sorc ascendancy is going? Summoning build?

[elfin tulip]

what are weapon set point and how can I spend them...I have 2 )btw maxroll guide do not mentions them)

[young niche]

if you got spare points from leveling up you can instead spend them to be used on specific weapon

you got 2 weapon slots

so you can go full ice with 1 weapon slot and then full fire with other

[errant breach]

Question, if I take the blackflame keystone, do I want to allocate "fire dmg increase %" passives in the tree, or "Chaos dmg increases%"?

[elfin tulip]

mmm did not get you exactly😅

[young niche]

both r good

[young niche]

they are points that are used with your weapon

if you use weapon slot 1 it will use skill tree 1 if you use weapon slot 2 it will use skill tree 2

if you use none of those it will be global

[elfin tulip]

what is weapon slot 1 or 2? I have 2H hammer

[young niche]

i think when you press x it changes your weapon slot

[elfin tulip]

ah ok got you...why shout I have 2 weapons?

[young niche]

so you can use for example quarterstaff skills to generate charges when your playing axe build

but its optional

i dont use them at all

[elfin tulip]

ok so what is teh benefit or using weapon poitnt instead of passive points?

[queen jungle]

For example, if you mostly use one kind of weapon attacks, but another attack you think would synergize well requires a different weapon type.

[young niche]

you can use 1 point once for each weapon slot

basically you can use 1 point twice for each weapon slot

and when you weapon slot it will change to that skill tree

[proven cape]

when do you start to lose exp when dying?

[elfin tulip]

but where Ishoud I put this points? I click the arrow in top right menu...and then?

[young niche]

poe does a shit job of explaining it ngl

the whatever number at the top right dosent actually show how many points you got

but how many you can spend

whenever you level up instead of just picking something you gotta select weapon slot and then pick

does that make sense?

[dry siren]

Hello, how can I add an extra gem slot in basic attack (maul)?

[queen jungle]

I believe you need a higher level item

[young niche]

i think its picking up better weapon bases

[dry siren]

gotcha! Thanks

[elfin tulip]

support skill are for all skills?

[queen jungle]

yes

[elfin tulip]

I mean the guide says to allocate magnified area I to boneshatter but I find it in shockwave totem...

[elfin tulip]

ah ok so it's fine

[queen jungle]

Those are jsut suggestions

[timber valley]

is there any beneficial about molten vault or should i skip

[young niche]

3 for 1 station

and maybe passive skills

[queen jungle]

Yeah do it

[timber valley]

alrighty i shall then

[young niche]

on it rn myself lmao

[timber valley]

the coincidence 😭

u find it in drowned city right

[young niche]

yes its past the ambush bit on the left somewhere

pretty sure its consistently there

[elfin tulip]

no wait, I did not get it. I already got magnified area ok? So why is proposing me to take it again on herald?

[young niche]

supports are not global

supports support 1 skill at the time

[elfin tulip]

ah ok

[young niche]

so you can have magnified area on multiple skills

[elfin tulip]

so I can I take magnify area on bonshatter if is not even listed?

[young niche]

again those are suggestions

[young niche]

on the bottom left of this box you can see all supports

[elfin tulip]

ok but wht maxroll suggested soenthing that i cannot use it...

[young niche]

mate

[young niche]

you can use magnified area on boneshatter

its just not in the suggestions

[queen jungle]

In the bottom left is a box that says Recommended Gems or soemthing like that. Uncheck it

[elfin tulip]

jjst saw it...

now is clear thanks...I thought Iyou were sayiing that maxroll were suggestions...not that fucking checkbox....😂 thanks

[young niche]

mb you sent the screenshot so i thought you mean the box lol

[elfin tulip]

no no my bad...did not see it at all...

[heavy scaffold]

For Druid does the Talisman the only thing that gives bonuses when wild shaped or would my magic staff also use it's bonuses?

[young niche]

you can only transform with talismans no?

[heavy scaffold]

Yah and I'm just wondering if the other weapon slot would have it's bonuses tied to that or if it's only the slot that has the talisman

[edgy locust]

do the mmushrooms matter in act3 i forgot wat they do

[hearty walrus]

give to an npc in the area for flasks

[queen jungle]

good flasks

[young niche]

other weapon slot is disabled when not in use so no

[heavy scaffold]

'k

Thanks.

[edgy locust]

ty

[hard blade]

Is there going to be another hot fix tonight?

[proven cape]

'they removed the recombinator?

[polar heart]

Guys its the first time I play a channelling skill and I cannot move while using it, it gets cancelled everytime i move.
Is there way to make it work? cause i'm getting insane

[tender garnet]

So, two different friends started playing the huntress. First one holds parry and is basically invincible, no matter what.

The second friend, can parry a zombie like....1/4 of the time. And gets knocked down every time he gets attacked while parrying a single attack. He IS facing them.

Anyone have a clue what is going on?

[astral mesa]

No you need to find an Expedition in mapping to unlock it in your hideout

[proven cape]

ah that is the only way to combine and get higher tier maps right?

[astral mesa]

Ah, you're looking for the 'Reforge Bench' specifically unlocked after going to the Molten vault. A3 south west inside Drowned City

[proven cape]

oh ok thanks

[queen jungle]

Does the first friend have more evasion than the second friend

[tender garnet]

I mean, we are talking the very beginning

First friend fought the Grelwood...plant boss thing? And he parried the crap out of it over and over without issue, cause the rest of us died lol

Second friend can't parry a zombie

[queen jungle]

I mean

yes or no my man

[tender garnet]

maybe some?

Are you thinking that all the attacks just "missed" my first friend?

[queen jungle]

So if friend 2 has no evasion, they will get stunned every time

[tender garnet]

That very well could be it

Highly appreciate it

[minor nova]

can you socket more than this amount?

like hotkey another skill not shown here?

[hearty walrus]

hold ctrl?

[cloud shadow]

are you jusing talisman and keystone to use sceptre in offhand

bc I get the same message for a buff i used to be able to use

[timber valley]

is 50% less projectile range good or not?

playing pathfinder poisonburst

[cloud shadow]

i have same issue with another aura buff that I used to be able to use, have enough spirit but says same thing

[tender garnet]

Wait, is Thunderstorm literally THE ONLY thing that causes Overgrown?

[proven cape]

is there any way to socket a corrupted item?

[sudden cairn]

hey with life stacking nerfed, is bloodmage still good?

[queen jungle]

yes

[queen jungle]

you mean, add a socket to?

[proven cape]

yes adding sockets

[queen jungle]

I don't think so

[elder ruin]

it’s not really important

[proven cape]

less range means bad right? cannot hit across screens

[sudden cairn]

so best way would be to stack life and es hybrid build?

[heavy estuary]

Can someone help defeat viper napuatzi

[queen jungle]

I can't say that, but I know that its still good

[elder ruin]

Yeah with most builds it’s bad unless you know what you’re doing

[neat ether]

thabnks

[kindred pagoda]

Are you supposed to hit close temple every time you finish a run?

[glad aurora]

Yes

[blazing hollow]

is anyone selling trials carry ?

[kindred pagoda]

So you lose some of the tiles? what happens if you dont click on it?

[ionic shore]

is the blind beast bugged?

i killed it but it didnt drop skill book and it doesn't look completed

[glad aurora]

you can't run it again unless you close it first

so yes tile loss is guaranteed

[kindred pagoda]

crap i left without closing it, will i be able to open a new portal again?

[glad aurora]

I mean you can tp back real quick to the ruins

[timber valley]

what runes should i socket into it?

[sweet torrent]

Did you managed to get it resolved? I am stuck here too

[kindred pagoda]

Which charm should i be taking as a reward in act one to fight the act 1 boss?

[queen jungle]

cold

[glad aurora]

what element is lowest

on your character

[kindred pagoda]

chaos obviously, then lighting 7%..i actually have a cold one already

[glad aurora]

then lightning one

[craggy gyro]

At the minimap places I visited before get's reset after I go back town, visually it shows like I never been those parts, and opens when I go there, etc, can we close this?

[heady prairie]

yea u need to go to town, shift click the waypoint back and reset

i actually just died to 2nd trial. my a, or turn left, just stopped working

love these bugs

[round frigate]

can spectres buff players or just other minions?

[shadow ice]

can i buy some high item level rares from someone for 1ex? i only need like 10 pieces to respec my lvl 20 char

[round frigate]

there should be tons of cheap rares in the game market

so u expend less currency @shadow ice

[shadow ice]

no one accepts my trades and most are in their shop ( ,_,)

[round frigate]

damn

i would help but still act 2, im taking it slowly

[shadow ice]

all g (._.)

[kindred pagoda]

Do you get capped in act one on res? I cant seem to go over 35%?

[shadow ice]

nop

[hollow harness]

i dont understand the weapon set points, what does it mean

[glad aurora]

don't worry about them for now

you can look on youtube for guides if you want though

[uneven oar]

What summons the little wolves in werewolf form?

[glad aurora]

the wolf pack spirit skill

[uneven oar]

I dont see it

in my skills what am i missing lol

[glad aurora]

do you have access to level 8 spirit gems

[uneven oar]

no im like level 6 or 7

its weird i have 3

[glad aurora]

3 of what

[uneven oar]

well 2 now

im playting with bear buddy

idk

[glad aurora]

ok that idk about

[uneven oar]

appreciate it 🙂

[kindred pagoda]

Ya I have no clue how im getting my wolves either

[uneven oar]

Pounce?

[waxen osprey]

you all don't read skill descriptions or watch the skill videos?

[uneven oar]

not this time 🙂

makes sense now

ty

[proven cape]

can you do anything to corrupted items in poe 2?

[heady prairie]

no

fill an already made socket

[astral mesa]

You can with the new 'Vaal Cultivation Orb'

[proven cape]

oh it's only for uniques

[timber valley]

can anyone help me killing the solitary confinement boss?

[fiery elm]

can anyone confirm if "Shapeshifting Attack Damage" works if you just remain in the same form?

[dapper flint]

does anyone know if i leave the vaal ruins will i lose access to it?

[south sparrow]

A portal will take you back to where you started. But you can use the waypoint to get back home, then waypoint back.

[trail shadow]

Is there somewhere I can see what weapons roll with what skills/spells? I'd like to see what weapons I should be gambling for to get a good basic spell for my Druid

[regal pilot]

whats the difference in having a league character and a normal one

[hearty walrus]

a character in the league has access to the new league content and better economy

[supple stratus]

does that work if enemy is just slowed ?

[tribal wagon]

no, need hinder specifically which that tree gives a chance to hinder mobs on spells

[ancient robin]

does spearfield count as a melee attack for this node to work?

[tacit yacht]

Will pay orbs for trial carry

[maiden stream]

Is Lightning arrow still THE build or something took it's top 1 place ?

[dusky burrow]

not on this server, no

[dusky burrow]

there is no "THE build" atp

[maiden stream]

Does that mean that it got nerfed in 0.4 compared to 0.3 ?

[dusky burrow]

yeah, its single target got heavily nerfed

and deadeye lost wind ward

still a great build

but most players are more interested in shapeshifting of some form rn

and bow enjoyers seem more interested in poisonburst arrow on pf as that got buffed

[old axle]

I believe arc stormweaver should still be good and simple if you're looking for ideas. I'm doing experimental weird druid shenanigans with most the playerbase atm

[dusky burrow]

by "THE build" i suppose that means something totally dominant over the meta, and unless "shapeshifting in general" fits the bill, nothing does

[maiden stream]

Shapeshifting is something for druid ?

[tender sparrow]

how am i suppouse to reach the boss with this vaal ruin thing? i dont have enough cards

[dusky burrow]

anyone can shapeshift, you need just a talisman (weapon type)

druid is just new and oracle and shaman both look quite strong so many are playing it

[maiden stream]

Is there a shapeshift build that you would recommend that is meta ?

[dusky burrow]

i dont really want to, because it's literally day 2 of the league

i dont get the point of asking for "meta"

in the most respectful way possible, try thinking for yourself and making your own build

[maiden stream]

I just don't want to have an horrible experience going through the campaign and hopefully the endgame

[dusky burrow]

the shapeshifting skills are fairly straightforward in how they work and synergize with each other

[tribal wagon]

poe2 itself posted a druid endgame showcase and you can follow one of their builds (idk if theres a detailed build but its like a general overview of a build)

[hybrid plinth]

for skills granted by a weapon, how do you unlock more gem sockets?

[tender sparrow]

respectfully trying to make your own build at the start of a season is just about the worst advice some 1 can give you unless you really know what you are doing

[dusky burrow]

... in this case with druid and shapeshifting everyone is basically making their own build?

i guarantee that if you understand the game in general and you do bear or wolf (wyvern is little more tricky) and do logical things you will be fine

[tribal wagon]

so you are saying people playing the game in their own is a bad thing ?

[tender sparrow]

im not saying that at all? idk what ur smokeing

[dusky burrow]

specifically is this the default attack of a martial weapon or a spell skill granted by a caster weapon

for a martial weapon (talisman, mace, spear, etc.), it's based off of your character level, for caster weapons (wand/staff), it's based off of the item level of the weapon

[south sparrow]

There are a number of druid guides on maxroll, mobalytics and poeninja. They are still in progress, but you can look through some to find one that looks pretty complete. You can keep checking, watching videos etc, to figure out what people are doing and it should be easy enough to switch focus/skills/ascendency if/when needed.

[tribal wagon]

anyone know if poison spores explode on death like, the mobs dies first before the spore explodes?

[hybrid plinth]

the maul from the bear talisman, it scales as ive been leveling

[dusky burrow]

right, to unlock more sockets there's breakpoints with character levels

90 is socket 5 if you were wondering about that one

[short hinge]

#looking for someone thats starting Arastas Island - I'm bugged looking to join someone elses game. Game thinks I already completed Utopia but I haven't fought Benedictus yet

[dusky burrow]

#2┃looking-for-group

[hybrid plinth]

im waiting on socket 3 :p

[dusky burrow]

should be lvl 40

[kind compass]

What level is is about right to do the first asc?

[dusky burrow]

anytime after you unlock it to before jamanra

i usually overlevel so i cruise through it

first trial is not that hard anyway

[deep quail]

for wyvern build wich ascendancy is better

[tiny ore]

I went oracle

some of the hidden path passives are really good as well

[dull sluice]

After doing the rooms in the Temple in the campaign is there anything else to do? It says temple complete but doesnt prompt me to get out like in the Abyssal pit

[languid prairie]

I found something called Vaal ruins in freyfhorn act 1 should I do this?

I haven’t played since last year

Is it smth to do now or for the future

[tender sparrow]

how do you complete the new vaal ruins mechanic? (kill the boss)

[shell crow]

can you improve the quality of shred?

[cinder sun]

talk to risu in town

[wispy shell]

Scourge of the skies isnt dropping the weapon part, I ran it in two separate instances and ahve the other two. Is there a prereq somewhere?

[solid dune]

she didnt offer me a book

maybe i will go and kill em again xd

[cinder sun]

oh weird, she did for me after i killed the two of em

[solid dune]

no book

well she did it for me 10+ last league

only this league was a lil weirder

killed them again and no update

[cinder sun]

how many weapon passive points do you have (presuming you haven't been using em)

[solid dune]

22

[cinder sun]

and you've done the all the interludes? hmm

[solid dune]

yes

already lvl 78 without complete weapon pts xd

[cinder sun]

yeah idk what's up with yours -- just checking, you did do the delirium boss in act 4 right? could be that's where your missing skill points are and maybe you got the risu points without noticing, i had to go back for the act 4 encounter since they moved it

[wheat bay]

Is the prisoner boss balista bugged for anyone else? Even if I instantly pull the lever he gets the heal off and can never be finished off...

[rare oar]

ask, when i get recombinator? is it endgame/after act?

[tiny karma]

Do talismans only work on the druid ? Like can you only equip them on him ?

[flat mist]

no, any class

[tiny karma]

but you can only shapshift on the druid right ?

[flat mist]

no, any class
equipping a talisman enables the ability to shapeshift

[vernal pawn]

Hi, before update my friend can play 0.1-0.3 without any problem, but since the lastest update, everything just look like a playdough+the item-some monster doesnt appear on screen, any one have a solution for this problem? Thank you very much.

[feral stratus]

Is Titan still the best armor stacking ascendancy?

[tender sparrow]

can some 1 explain how vaal ruins work? how can i reach the boss?

[proven cape]

is there any way to reduce animation of barrage?

[hazy stump]

Anyone have a issue with gear not showing at all. Its there but it won't show up. Just a colored box

[silver rain]

Is this item good fo a contagion ED build for leveling?

[tender sparrow]

does literly no 1 know how vaal ruins work?

[hearty walrus]

iirc from the dev stream; you need to build a path to the commander(?). defeating him will reveal where a key in the temple is. need to build a path to that, then you can build a path to the boss.

I have not been able to touch this mechanic yet

[hollow harness]

the mechanics for the vaal ruin is scuffed, it doesnt make sense why a certain block can be put or not

i just got vaal ruin 2 times and there's no correlations

it's just put your piece wherever

and then when you close the temple, it removes pieces

[tender sparrow]

i got it like 6 7 times and still no boss

[hollow harness]

i just try all the pieces until i get something close to the middle piece

then idk how the boss works

[twin rivet]

I see a perk that says it just buffs damage. Uh. What damage

[fading carbon]

Can anyone help with mawden mine boss act 2 please

[leaden temple]

is it just me or is the game feeling pretty crashy

[twin rivet]

So would this perk not work on any of the talisman skills? Idk what damage is

[kindred sigil]

how do you get more sockets on something like shred? (werewolf basic attack from the talisman)

[dusky burrow]

everything is damage

at least, everything from your skills

so no to minions basically, everything else works

[dusky burrow]

breakpoints based off of character level

[kindred sigil]

ah ok, do you know what levels those are?

[dusky burrow]

https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Gem_socket

[kindred sigil]

ah thanks, 40 seems a bit steep but I'll figure it out

[candid latch]

I should be happy the mtx store doesn't load, it's a sign to not spend money

[fathom saddle]

I have a poison bleed build, what does it mean when a part of mob's life becomes a bit transparent ?

[heavy estuary]

Can someone help defeat viper napuatzi

[fathom saddle]

but the mob also dies before the "transparent life" part

[quick pike]

means it bleeds , dmg overtime

[fathom saddle]

why does it die after the normal health part and not the transparent one ?

[fluid bobcat]

i just realised all the break armour stuff on tree doesnt automatically break armour and u need to put in a armor break support on ur skills???

[dusky burrow]

well, there's many ways to get armour break

but yeah you dont just get it automatically

[hybrid star]

that's the damage the mob has taken by bleed, called blood loss, for skills that calculate damage from it, like blood hunt

[fathom saddle]

oh okay I see, tyvm

[timid minnow]

Can anyone help with 2nd ascendacy keep dying on the boss

[rose pike]

can anyone help me understand how pounce and wing blast work together? wing blast says it will stun if the enemy is primed for stun. however, when i prime the enemy with pounce, casting wing blast does not stun right away. it still needs the stun bar to be filled

[haughty depot]

how is hit chance for fork/secondary projectiles calculated? Based on first projectile or does it update dynamically

[twin rivet]

I made a temple and im in it but can i leave and come back? Theres these upgrade stations but i dont have stuff to upgrade on me

[quick pike]

you can

[buoyant jolt]

What Boon is the way?

[fluid bobcat]

does brutality make this not actually add the extra ele?

[wispy sky]

Correct, you deal only physical damage

[flat mist]

ms, you can always change it later too

[fluid bobcat]

so gaining 12% of phys as extra twice doesnt really compare to the 30% more phys right?

like numbers wise its more or less 24% vs 30% ?

[wispy sky]

Not necessarily, do you have any other sources of elemental damage ? Like flat damage on Ring and gloves or weapon?

[twin rivet]

Does druid actually get any dialogue? Like mid speach dialogue

[static patio]

can one skills glory be used to activate anothers skills glory requirement?

or does each skill have its own glory counter

[obsidian forge]

you need to cause enough stun buildup by dealing enough physical damage to make them primed for stun

[wispy sky]

Individually

[twin rivet]

Sry for phone pic but does this “every rage gives increased armor” only affect the base armor of the helm or is it all armor i have period? Im doin a rage thing so this seems pretty cool

[topaz nimbus]

Hello guys, I have a fresh druid and I can't figure out how to make the base attack ability, Maul and Shred, change when I shapeshift using a skill. it only changes when I select a shapeshift form on the weapon.

[twin rivet]

I believe you need two separate talsimans

[hearty walrus]

you can only hve one base attack per talisman

[topaz nimbus]

if I get another talisman and switch form using a skill, will that change the main attack?

or would I need to use weapon swap?

[hearty walrus]

you'd need weapon swap

[static patio]

i heard there is a way to gain access to keynotes even when they arent connected at what kinda level do you get access to those mechanics or is that not a thing?

[devout lynx]

azmadi still broken GGG

[topaz nimbus]

Thanks :)

[devout lynx]

why is azmadi 1 shotting me with basic attack

[gilded thistle]

low life or res?

[glacial warren]

yo guys in act 4 shrike island i see speak to matiki quest but i explored the whole thing and didnt find anyone

[quick pike]

I'm there too

[quick pike]

did you killed the boss there

[glacial warren]

the bird one yea

[quick pike]

then you can tp to town

hes there in the boss arena

[craggy gyro]

Should I be using lesser runes on my low lvl weapons, or keep em for later?
And I kinda feel like I should keep BlackSmith's Weathstone & Artificers Orb, true?

[glacial warren]

oh in the boss area where bird is?

[glacial warren]

interesting i must of somehow skipped him ill check it out again ty

[green prism]

as an early game summoner what should I use for minions?

currently on the new ascendancy

[quick pike]

snipers are pretty good

in act 3 you can get the best spectres if you want to use spectres vaal guardns with grenades

ghazzy has videos about minions, he's the minion guy

[green prism]

thank you

[thorny geyser]

Why does some items have (tier X) added to them?

[rose quartz]

weapon set passive?

is it possible to make it non set?

like global instead of exchanging passives?

[flat mist]

just dont select either

[quick pike]

https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Tier

[rose quartz]

what if i want to change the middle one for either int or dext

do i have to respec towards that node

or is there a way to rechange it?

[gilded thistle]

you can change the type of attribute when respeccing

without respeccing later nodes

[cloud stream]

where can you get powered zealots spectres?

[gilded thistle]

etched ravine in doryani interlude

its 1 area before the last

[hallow meteor]

game dedge?

nvm

[quick pike]

when you get the Powered Zealots check if they are Lightning Spark I had to get like 4 different ones to find them

[gilded thistle]

yeah theres 3 types of powered zealots

[tender sparrow]

bro this game is full of bugs

sometimes i click on stuff and i cant move until i die

[gilded thistle]

click on what stuff

[tender sparrow]

like the summoning altars that spawn stuff

[gilded thistle]

maybe you get frozen

[tender sparrow]

i just clicked one the guys spawned but my charachter coudlent move

other time is cause i clicked a lever

i didint get frozen for 20 seconds brugh

[gilded thistle]

lever locks you in an animation

[tender sparrow]

same with lever

[gilded thistle]

sounds odd then, would be easier to tell with a video

[tender sparrow]

noting to tell

its a bug

no stuns or levers animations or freeze

[near garnet]

could anyone ne help me with Doryani please bit of dps issue here

[gilded thistle]

then report it as a bug i guess if you're so sure it's nothing else

[tender sparrow]

dont worry i already did

multiple times

[vale skiff]

so we have a good acts build for druid? (bear feels slow-squishy early and can create death windows)

[quick pike]

I've been playing the plant druid build , works well

bear works too , you just need a good talisman and flat dmg

[vale skiff]

got a build for it? (gems/supports/tree)

[quick pike]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/deadrabbit-spellcaster-druid

[craggy gyro]

Monk wants Evasion or armor rating?

[vale skiff]

scales phys/spell dmg?

[feral stratus]

Does the "reinforced barrier" node in the skill tree mean armor also applies to energy shield? Or only with that node unlocked

[quick pike]

evasion/energy shield hybrid , but depends what you want , you can go full energy shield

energy shield is the best one overall

[fluid bobcat]

could i combine combo finisher and culmination to turn one of my skills into kinda like a super empowered use rarely attack or am i misreading somewhere

like i use lots of other skills then use that one for a big boom

[craggy gyro]

thx

[split kayak]

Hey guys, I am not exactly "new" I've had like a couple of semi-late game characters (following guides) but I can't say I understand the game too much...

So, I'm playing a Druid wolf... following this guide https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/woolie-wolfman?ws-ngf5-f7d82102-7e77-4a44-ad24-33b67e8ae7bf=activeVariantId%2C2

And the screenshots are my current stuff....

So what's with the potion chugging simulator? I am in Mastodon Badlands rn, and I am getting obliterated. I tried buying items with a little bit more armor, and stacking as much resistances as possible, but I am still taking VERY HEAVY damage! 🙁

[quick pike]

how's your dmg ? you need to have good positioning , armour/es instead of full armour gear

[split kayak]

damage is low... but looking at trade I don't see any talismans which would be a huge gamechanger

[quick pike]

that's the problem , get a talisman with flat dmg check the tips/talisman from raxx https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/eynf0uhb

[vale skiff]

contagion works well with entagle?

[split kayak]

thanks, I will try upgrading my weapon again

[quick pike]

entangle deals physical dmg

you can use contagion and essence drain for more dmg

[vale skiff]

oh because the guide says to use it together., so its just supportive aoe damage I guess?

[hushed bronze]

Hello gamers!
Why I dont see any dps impact from these passives? Playing as a bear form druid.

[ripe cape]

there is no meta ballista yet that lets you socket in projectile skills right?

[minor nova]

what should i do if the girls in interlude p3 won't fight me?

i tried to leave and reload but nothing

[craggy gyro]

Is it possible to reach Artitech & Atziri at first time on these Temples? If so, how, where I should place them? Or that's only possible when I come next time, etc?

[minor nova]

when u come over time you'll build up

[gilded thistle]

armour applies to elemental damage is a defense mechanic

[lunar mist]

yo guys, Azmadi keeps despawning mid fight and i cant finnish it. anyone else?

[quick pike]

try resetting the zone , ctrl+click on the entrance , it will reset all monsters too

[scarlet estuary]

how do crits with elemental ailments work in poe2?
do crits apply chill or freeze or both? or just increased buildup? or no effect

[hushed bronze]

Thanks!

[upper inlet]

Got +5 to melee skills on my talisman but it doesn't seem to add any levels to my werewolf skills despite them being melee. is it a bug or am I just stupid?

[quick pike]

no , you need to make a big temple with a lot of rooms , it's better to focus on making good rooms with tier 3

[quick pike]

press G and see the lvls of the skills

[atomic oriole]

Am I the only one who charging clearfell encampment map for 30min straight ?

[quick pike]

works for shred, check other skills if they have the melee tag , some are spells

[upper inlet]

most of them have the melee tag

shred only is showing a global +1

ohhhhh nvm, apparently it doesn't show unless you transform. I'm just dumb lol

[craggy gyro]

Why I should make tier 3 rooms, better loot?

[rose quartz]

at what point do i get the wolf level up mtx?

[minor nova]

thank u, finally beat them

[tight pulsar]

Any class can use items with Bonded, or only the druid (in which case, using the effect that is Bonded on the item)?

[crystal raptor]

Jesus Christ how strong does your pc have to be to run POE?

I thought you only need an Nvidia 960…

[gilded thistle]

yes the bonded stats apply only with the bonded ascendancy

[gilded thistle]

maybe for poe 1

[tight pulsar]

tysm

[gilded thistle]

960 is very bad today :p

[proven cape]

how do you make the red line appear and join in vaal ?

[violet hinge]

What

[proven cape]

need to connect the red lines all the way to boss room?

[thorny geyser]

Can you swap the buff later?

Because i have no idea which one to pick

[thorn tiger]

Okay guys so i just started here with a druid, i'm using bear and i'm kinda confused, everything feels so much harder for nothing.

I'm fighting Draven in the mausoleum and I can barely attack it because it takes an immense amount of time to do attacks

[fleet vault]

how can i gen power charges on my druid

[quick pike]

check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7HkGMqzD3Gg&pp=0gcJCSkKAYcqIYzv

[fleet vault]

i got this skill spell totem that consumes power or endurance charges

i cant find any way to generate them

[night veldt]

any one with Qimah Reservoir chekpoint i can tp to? can pay 3c

[thorn tiger]

Even him in the video the clean seems extremely slow due to furious slam's ability being SO slow

[quick pike]

you can get power or endurance charges from using shapeshifting skills, wing blast can give you power charges ,later you can use the totem all the time , at first you can't really

[fleet vault]

why would i be able to use it all the time later ? are there any skills that will give me charges or items ?

[quick pike]

items,skills,passive tree

[fleet vault]

i cant see anything about generating charges in passive tree

theres stuff like you can gain more

[quick pike]

check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hr-LLUU2znY , he's the totem guy

[vestal marsh]

Hello everyone, I have killed Blind Beast in Act 4 and it didn't give me +2 skill points.
Tried reseting location and killing it again - nothing.
What can I do???

[fleet vault]

thank you

[cloud stream]

is the sealt vaulted in the league mechanic bugged? i cant use the levers in couch coop

[hazy scarab]

How can I fix this shaders?

[midnight briar]

which island is these or is it rng to find it?

[copper spindle]

Does someone have a few min to help with choosing monk or warrior?

I'm really new to t he genre and I just tried the huntress but it was just rolling around throwing spears.

How does the monk and warrior play? Im 2 hours into the game.

Is there a good tldr?

is one more fun than the other? is one noticably tankier?

does one have more viable builds?

[floral jewel]

chat, new player, do I pick standard or this fate of vaal thing

[hybrid star]

fate of the vaal, it's the current league released just yesterday

[hazy scarab]

How can I fix Deadlock detected error?

[halcyon lagoon]

whats the counter to this? 4 fights in a row i die the same way

[near garnet]

well i had the hinekora guy here

didnt they say

[floral jewel]

dawg this channel 99.9% questions, 0.1% answers

[near garnet]

act IV will be different each league or smth like that

fate

when fate ends all stuff drops to standard

[floral jewel]

so I go fate?

[near garnet]

yep

[floral jewel]

ight bet W Fidel

[sand herald]

Am i fucked?

[near garnet]

i think thats "Blood Tendrils" attack

he should grab his chest and shout "Tendrils" or smth

try geting behind him

[halcyon lagoon]

alr thanks

[quick pike]

fate of vaal the new league , standard won't have the vaal league mechanic and the league economy is very low

[knotty perch]

proccing heavy stun with wing blast doesn't work/ is bugged in multiplayer??

it works perfectly in singleplayer but in multiplayer does nothing

[rose quartz]

why does rapid shot has 100 bullets but can only shot like 30 or so with the overheat thing?

[fathom saddle]

Do temples get better later on ? I keep getting rooms that dont work together

[near garnet]

stop shooting for a bit, to cool it down i guess

[fathom saddle]

Ok ty, but my issue is that i never get rooms to upgrade the others i have :/

[near garnet]

im sure it also scales with are lvl

[quick pike]

you get a new temple if you kill the architect

[worn stone]

What am i doing wrong i been stuck for hours trying to figure out what im missing

[vestal marsh]

check underground areas as well and go to npcs in towns, see if you have unclaimed some rewards

[lament stone]

thats probably the sacrifical heart in the alternate act 3

[quick pike]

Jonathan the game director was saying that you can store 10 temple runs, I've found 6 rooms and then placed them , then found 6 more and did the temple , so you could find 6-10 times make a big temple and then run it , but each time you run it you get to run it from the start so you're losing on that , a lot of good items and stuff

[near garnet]

underground or try going to past in act III

[worn stone]

i had blood sacrifice too, its just frustrating

[sweet sun]

is there a way to change ascendancy?

[near garnet]

dude

interlude

[worn stone]

o shit

thank you

[near garnet]

[worn stone]

i reran like everything im like wtf lol

[near garnet]

yes

[quick pike]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/guides/respec-ascendancy

[warm cargo]

how come my items aiint showing in me inventory

[quick pike]

bug

[near garnet]

do it again -> respec everything -> chose again

[warm cargo]

i tried the cache thing it didnt work is there any other ways?

[quick pike]

I don't think so , I've seen ppl with the same problem on reddit poe2

[warm cargo]

dam

[quick pike]

I had it too but for like 2sec and all good

[warm cargo]

mmm

[near garnet]

maybe try different renderer

could do something

[winged pivot]

if i have 4 ascendency points, can i respec my ascendency to another one in a 1 floor trial of the sekhemas ?

[lament stone]

no

you need to do a 2 floor sekhemas or a 7 round chaos

assuming youve already done the quest versions of both

[winged pivot]

damn

[sweet sun]

can I like not go there and do it later? or it will be wasted?

[warm cargo]

"deadlock detected" what would that mean?

[quick pike]

cpu game error , I had it too

[warm cargo]

alr

[quick pike]

not too sure , I did put in the rooms and then didn't start the temple , you will find more vaal circles in zones after that

[proud forum]

this geondor boss is the worst fight ive ever seen, how the fuck am i supposed to dodge the fog phase if I can't see him until he hits me?

[lament stone]

listen to him

he always dashes after finishing each line of his poem

[hearty walrus]

he always appears from the opposite side you're on

[rose quartz]

i find it interesting i just did geondor right now on my first try

and i played poe1 only with mouse and only i started today with wasd

[hearty walrus]

cold res also very important

[proven cape]

how do you get bonded implicit stat?

[timid star]

Ever since the 0.3 changes, it’s become a chore to use. You’re forced to spam grenades to get rid of heat, which defeats the whole machine gun fantasy.

[lament stone]

by being a shaman and taking the ascendancy node for it

[proud forum]

also why on the guide i am following skeletal sniper requires 30 spirit but when I try to get it it requires 41 spirit for me?

[fathom saddle]

this is my weapon, but I don't seem to leech any life or mana, is it normal ? I'm playing a resonating shield poison + bleed build, but the hits from resonating shield should leech right ?

[near garnet]

count, he dashes in same intervals and try avoiding staying in middle

[proven cape]

when they sell it on marketplace is it still bonded for other players/

[hearty walrus]

no

[lament stone]

because minion spirit reservation scales with level and reservation efficiency, theres a load of stats that will change it

[rose quartz]

and the combo just feels really bad and clunky, spamming cold shotgun in the end proved to be better

[lament stone]

no, it just tells you what youre getting from it

[near garnet]

if you level up the gem, cost goes down

[lament stone]

so if you do have the bonded ascendancy node, you will get that extra stat

if you dont you can ignore it

[timid star]

Used to be my fav skill. Still hoping it gets reverted in the future 🤞

[lament stone]

it would be kinda shit if they didnt tell you what stats you were getting from a rune until you actually socketed it on shaman

[fathom saddle]

this is my weapon, but I don't seem to leech any life or mana, is it normal ? I'm playing a resonating shield poison + bleed build, but the hits from resonating shield should leech right ?

[lament stone]

with resonating shield you are attacking using your shield, not your weapon

[fathom saddle]

are those stats only applying to my weapon ? not any physical damage ?

[lament stone]

yea, most stats on your weapon (for attack builds) apply only to that weapon

[fathom saddle]

sadge, but if i get "gain X mana on kill" on my weapon, would it work ?

[lament stone]

the +2 all melee skills is the only global mod on that weapon

everything else is local

[fathom saddle]

but if i get "gain X mana on kill" on my weapon, would it work ?

[lament stone]

i dont think it would

[fathom saddle]

so where can I get those stats, shield ? but also any armor piece ?

[lament stone]

rings for leech

and thats about it if youre doing a shield build

because your damage comes from the defences on your shield

[compact wraith]

hi! I am following a spark build. This build uses Projectile Accelartion II which has pierce, but also uses nodes which adds chain to lightning spells.
Is it possible to pierce and chain with spark?
Thanks a lot!

[fathom saddle]

okay i see, thank you very much

[lament stone]

you can also get added attack damage on rings and gloves, those are global mods

[cedar pewter]

Hello, any kind soul wants to help me kill Act 2 boss ?

[whole cloak]

i have a noob question, is the level of a item is importante ? i drop a wand Acte 1 and i never find a better one and i'm in acte 4 and i have no problem for progres

[fluid bobcat]

is there a max evasion/deflect chance

[quick pike]

the item level is important you can see the affixes on https://poe2db.tw/us/Modifiers , like ilvl on a staf to get +3 to Level of all Spell Skills is ilvl 25

[quick pike]

check vendors , pick white/blue/rare wands , use transmute and augments on white wands

[whole cloak]

Yeah this is what i do but i just don't drop a good one x)

[quick pike]

yeah it's rng , if you are trade you could just buy one

[noble nest]

Is chaos not a elemental resistance or does midnight braid's effect not apply to it

[hearty walrus]

chaos is not elemental

[hushed coyote]

if i use an alch on 2 mod item, will it keep the 2 mods already on it or reroll them

[quick pike]

alch works only on white items

you could use a chaos orb

that removes 1 mod and adds one

[hushed coyote]

...?

[ripe meteor]

act 2 boss kills me too fast. not sure what I can do

[quick pike]

true it's magic now too , it just adds 4 mods in total

[unborn lava]

it will reroll them

[midnight briar]

why does my game crash on these boss?

[quick pike]

try switching the renderer , dx12-vulkan , you could try to verify the game files

[midnight briar]

going to try verify

[jagged fern]

wouldnt it be stupid to not go for minions with the Disciple Of Varashta because the spells from the ascendency scale with it as well?

[fluid bobcat]

does the unnafected by slow pathfinder thing also make u not affected by attack and cast speed reductions like chill

[quick pike]

depends what you want to do , ds lily and dr3adful made full spellcaster builds and the build are strong

[rough dew]

Hey y'all, whats the blind beast in act 4 supposed to give?

I've beaten it twice now, no green reward dropped, and its not marked as done on map

[jagged fern]

lily has minions though?

[marsh chasm]

WTF is the price for PlagueFinger??? No freaking way this item is 150c

I played poison build last league. PF is a common drop unique, should be the price close to TrampleToe

[hushed coyote]

fubgun tax

[quick pike]

true seeing that now , this is the build by dr3adful full caster https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNw-9E-MEVI

[proven cape]

where is temple of chaos located at?

[thorny geyser]

Im trying to do the acendy trial again since I want to change it but the monsters are always level 50 (im leve 30) what am i doing wrong?

[lucid bay]

Hey guys, can I play with all the transformations of the druid or do I have to stick and build for one? I've only found videos of the werewolf and bear too but nothing on the dragon, anyone knows why?

[quick pike]

act 3 chimera lands zone

[quick pike]

monster lvl is based on the area level of the trial key

[thorny geyser]

Thank you. I didnt knew the Djin Barya had a level I see it now

[marsh chasm]

Ahhh, I tried Original Sin, but it won't replace the effect of PF. Gained elemental damage added after ele conversion to chaos

[thorny geyser]

Can you filter in the trade by askin price?

[marsh chasm]

Yes, there's the option under trade filter tab-> buyout price-> exalt only

[thorny geyser]

Thank you

[broken pier]

anyone able to help mne with jamanra boss?

[jagged fern]

how can i actually "water my plants"? 😄

cant find any skill

[quick pike]

the druid/primal has it , it's thunderstorm

[stark yacht]

What are some 1-2 ish button campaign destroying builds right now? Preferebly mega tanky. Need something to get my old dad through the campaign and back into mechanics and shit again

[shell bridge]

Why tf arent dropped items shown??? I have literally created a filter that only shows items usefull for Druid... Well, it only show items completely useless, and if i disable the filter, it still hides the items... What is wrong?????

[thorny geyser]

it togles and untoggles it. I had to figure it the hard way too

[shell bridge]

Oh

Thx

[thorny geyser]

Wait maybe its somethign else with filters

[quick pike]

z toggles all the items/highlights

[hard blade]

Ia there away to view how much rage you have?

Im doing an entangle sorcerer

Well with the new ascendancy

[quick pike]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/guides/rage , you see your rage above your portal , it's the red bar , you have to build rage,Rage generation are inherently tied to Melee mechanics such as Melee Support Gems or Melee Skills

[sweet sun]

I went through whole caverns and cant find it any ideas?

[jagged fern]

You guys think a plant/thunderstorm, skele sniper, sand jinn hybrid could work out?

[thorny geyser]

im not sure what i pressed but my map doesnt show anything anymore except my marker

nvm looks like its one of my debuffs in the trial

[quick pike]

skele sniper, sand jinn hybrid or plant/thunderstorm , not both , skele sniper, sand jinn builds on minion dmg ,plant/thunderstorm on spell dmg , physical spells

[jagged fern]

lets say i use the plants only for CC?

[quick pike]

not worth it

[jagged fern]

mhm ok

[shy rover]

should I just be buying normal gear at my level and upgrading it with orbs and stuff? currently lv 40 in act 3 with lv 27-33 gear

[quick pike]

I'm doing ssf so I'm picking decent bases from the ground and using transmute,augments on them

[shy rover]

I've been mostly using looted stuff and upgrading sometimes, but lots seem below level

[quick pike]

check the ilvl not the req lvl to use, ilvl is the most important thing , higher ilvl rolls better affixes , you can see them on https://poe2db.tw/us/Modifiers

[gaunt bluff]

Hi , I’m confused with the game loop. This is what I understand.
League : start with your class get through act 1,2,3,… to end game map keep doing that and wait for next league .
New league : strat again with same or different class do act 1,2,3 till end game and wait for next league

[shy rover]

ohhhh I've been looking at req lvl tysm

[lament stone]

yea

and the reason for restarting is to play new league mechanics or make new builds

[gaunt bluff]

But how do I make my self enjoy same story again and again plus spending time building your character just to restart ? I don’t get it sorry

[quick pike]

arpg , new league comes with league mechanics , a lot of changes/balance,fresh economy, I usually play to like lvl 95-98 and set a goal for the league , farm to buy mageblood or kill the uber boss ,farm for a new build... and then stop when I'm not having fun

[jagged fern]

is there any node that rewards having every minion of each kind once?

[lament stone]

making a new build is the fun part for most people

[quick pike]

I even delete all my character after the league with 100-300 h played , 500 divines+ worth of gear

[unborn lava]

New leagues also come with new exclusive mechanics and most updates also include endgame expansions. Currently POE 2 is quite lean on endgame, but POE as a game conept is primarily around endgame, not campaign.

Eventually you will sprint through campaign on league start and spend most of your time in endgame.

[gaunt bluff]

So keep playing and trying out new stuff until your are bored

[hearty walrus]

it's not an mmo. you're not expected to spend months to years on one character. there's many different builds to try out, even on the same class

[gaunt bluff]

Yeah I get that

[lament stone]

basically yes

and when you get bored of the current league you just stop playing, because you know you can check back in however many months and there will be a new league with something new to do

[gaunt bluff]

Ok I think I get it now thanks

[quick pike]

I would not have 5000h in poe1 without leagues , I like going from 0 to super strong on new characters , I've even played RF 20 times and trying to make it better each time

[sweet sun]

why its not there?

I did whole map

[quick pike]

what the siren boss ? or chest ? chest doesn't have anything important

[sweet sun]

okay I see now I have quest regarding hideout to go back to Ange

my bad

Clam I actually did not sure why its not grayed out

its bugging out sometimes

[verbal mango]

does dodge not dodge dmg? like with I frames? how do i avoid act 1 boss dmg when he is bouncing around when minons are showing uo

[quick pike]

ppl are saying to listen when he talks , I've been dodging his attacks from the fog

[noble nest]

is the molten vault worth doing on a alt

[verbal mango]

yea but he still dmgs me in my dodge so im confused

[hearty walrus]

he always attacks from the opposite side you're on

stand near the edge to give yourself more time to react

[verbal mango]

am i supposed to avoid him. or can i frame dodge?

[timid stratus]

is there a way to rebuild my vaal temple i dont like the way its placed

[quick pike]

yes , aoe dmg don't have iframes , so if you time the dodge you won't get it , I've been doing it like that

[quick pike]

when you run it some of the rooms get destroyed or if you kill the main boss I think it will reset it all

[fathom saddle]

If i don't add news temple rooms after the 6 sacrifice altars, will I still have them on the next one ?

[wise willow]

So we need to run the temple everytime to get 6 room more we can't just put all the rooms and the run the temple?

[robust cave]

Why the vaal portal isn't active sometimes? Nothing happened when I stand on that, all enemies near that are cleared

Update: Oh 1 enemy is missed. Done

[plucky snow]

Is there an explanation why wolf pack doesnt revive 4 wolfs? Bug or i miss something?

[quick pike]

you don't need to run it , I've tested it , placed all 6 room and went to find 6 more , you can do that , some ppl are saying when you find 6 vaal circles in zone you can keep going and it will bank it , but I have't tested that , you could keep placing rooms in temple and making a full temple ,but each time you run it you do it from the start so you're losing on gear and stuff

[timid stratus]

do you have 60 spirit

[plucky snow]

Yes, its activated and working, just when all wolfs die only 1 respawns

[clear vine]

What does the werewolf warcry do?
