[frigid lantern]

Brother what is that? Is that your ascendancy tree!

[subtle roost]

that's part of the atlas

endgame content

[autumn valley]

its part of the atlas passive tree for endgame, its to make map bosses harder/more rewarding

[zenith linden]

Can you complete the 3rd ascendancy at anytime if you have the item from another character to enter the trial? Looking to get a boost some time.

[gentle pollen]

yeah

as long as it's the correct trial amount

[frigid lantern]

@autumn valley ahhh.

[rain crag]

Can get help with the act 1 boss

[pearl flame]

when you are doing an expedition. Do the modifier of each detonation/Pack stack up and apply to the next packs aswell?

[grizzled grotto]

https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1308714168576249887
also https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1308714834543513652

[subtle roost]

sequential stacking

mods from 1st explosion apply to 1st 2nd 3rd etc

but the mods from 2nd explosion do not apply to the first

[grizzled grotto]

you should be asking campaign questions in the latter chat, but boss help requests belong in the lfg chat

[vapid grove]

@amber helm yeah gain as extra dmg can't be converted

[candid crystal]

Nice layout GGG 😂

[vapid grove]

conversion is so dogshit now man

[amber helm]

cool

at least its consistent with wht i read

[fleet steppe]

what is cotb?

[agile dragon]

Should I sacrifice some resists for MF in early maps?

[amber helm]

call of the brotherhood

[agile dragon]

Am res capped but looking at how crazy rarity looks and idk

[amber helm]

now 100% conversion

[fleet steppe]

ah the gloves yeah

[amber helm]

ring

[fleet steppe]

you can convert skill-inherent conversion. But all other conversion happens simultaneously

[grizzled grotto]

rarity does jack all if you're dying

[amber helm]

the one the spark aura stackers / carries ran in both slots with 20% quality for 96% convert

[vapid grove]

in poe1

[fleet steppe]

yeah i know

[vapid grove]

just had to double check

[wind light]

is this not supposed to be aggorat in act 3? i have a heart i need to get rid of but since its not aggorat but this dirty version of it i can't put in the heart

[vapid grove]

what makes the mobs on floor 4 so much tankier than floor 3?
more life? more res?

[dull plank]

It’s not a big deal since you can walk back to aggorat

[ripe remnant]

how to access endgame? do i have to ascend a 3rd time before I can do that?

[vapid grove]

beat act 6

[ripe remnant]

i did that

[dull plank]

Endgame are the maps

[vapid grove]

then ur in it, the maps arte the endgame

[ripe remnant]

and i went to hideout automatically, but there was no way to use a waystone and i still had the quest "go to chaos temple" so i went there, now i dont know how to get back to hideout

[vapid grove]

/hideout takes u to hideout

when u log out and back in u also appear there

that chaos temple quest will stick around till u do 4th ascendancy

u dont need to worry about it for a while, just work on maps till u feel comfortably strong around lvl 80+

[tawny anvil]

Is ruthless bugged on minions? When I socket it, it says only 5% increased stun build up every 5th hit rather than 500%

[sleek jay]

I'm guessing Atziri's domain insta kills you on hit if you go CI without taking it off?

[ripe remnant]

so, i beat the entire campaign(on cruel) and tried relogging and /hideout, but it doesn't work. i have already been in the hideout tho!?
and when i relogged i started here

[sleek jay]

go to the ziggurat reffuge via the waypoint

hideout comes after doing some maps there

[ripe remnant]

i cant go there, whenever i try to WP there i end up in the past version of zigurrat with a missing timeportal???????

omg finally, had to tp to a neighbouring region and walk through portal to get to present version... so that problem seems solved at least, but why have i already been at hideout if I cant go there anymore?

[minor bobcat]

CI nullifies the chaos damage modifiers in ultimatum right?

[olive barn]

is attack / cast speed additive?

[fleet vessel]

are logbooks always dogshit or did i do something wrong? My ROI was literally like 5ex

[daring heron]

how much could i sell this for?

[lunar sundial]

liek 1/4 maps crash me when i try and use the portal skill any idea?

[fleet vessel]

put similar mods into trade and check

[daring heron]

I did but its like between 1 and 8 divine

i dont believe that though

[ripe remnant]

zigurrat still looks like that for me, shouldn't it look differently after beating act3? also there is no ENDGAME tab in map? i feel like my game is bugged, please help. i read a dozen guides on how to use map device and all show a different area than the one i can access

after beating doriyani in act3 cruel, i automatically got to some area where doriyani and some other priests where with a stash and other stuff, looked like one of those tempels we cleared before. what should have happened after that and how do i get back there?

[hasty sphinx]

is there a channel here im not seeing to pay or just join A map xp run?

[sleek jay]

no, Refuge - that's the encampment - there's 2 places

[ripe remnant]

damn im dumb. thanks a lot. next question tho, shouldn't there be a map device

[daring heron]

yeah bro, its in the picture.

[sleek jay]

Not dumb, new 🙂 round thing in the middle, not obvious I know

[daring heron]

play the game for like 5 more minutes then come back

[rugged hamlet]

is it possible to search for specific skills on Prism of Belief on the trade site?

[ripe remnant]

the place it should be is in the pic but i cant click it and it doesn't show on map?

[daring heron]

talk to the npcs

[cunning nymph]

Show quests so you know who to talk to and where to go

[true raven]

which one is better the one that gives me +2k dps or the one that gives me shoot 3 arrows?

[ripe remnant]

thanks you are my saviour. this is totally a bug tho because if i open maps there was no quest shown. but if i enable quest tracking it suddenly shows who i have to talk to... WTF
anyway, thanks ❤️

[hasty sphinx]

is there a channel here im not seeing to pay or just join A map xp run?

[olive barn]

is there a way to bump up my listing on the trade site

[sinful hamlet]

Excuse me, can someone help me slaughter abomination boss in act 2 pls ?

[loud canyon]

why im not getting ES from everlasting gaze .... im los t

[olive barn]

how much mana u got

[next light]

be cheaper

[olive barn]

what about if everyone has the same price

[loud canyon]

3440 @olive barn

[craggy pilot]

why is my item not showing up on the trade site?

[next light]

give it a min or so, can take a bit sometimes

[craggy pilot]

gotcha, it just took under a minute ago for one, and taking over 10 mins for this 1

[next light]

it do be like that, i have once waited 15 minutes. for one item

[craggy pilot]

okay thank you king

[minor bobcat]

now show mana 😼

[fading basin]

Does anyone have a level 60 djinn barya? Im almost level 75 and still havent found one I can do lol

Last time one dropped it was level 47 in cruel

bruh...

[craggy pilot]

can buy a lvl 60 one usually for 3 ex

[olive barn]

if someone does a 10 trial trials of chaos and they havent gotten any ascendancy points before, would they get ascendancies 1, 2, and 3 at once?

[craggy pilot]

but can look for a 60-65 for 1ex

[fading basin]

can I just do someone elses level 60 one?

rather not spend 3ex on it

jsut looked the 1ex ones are people just putting them up but not selling them

[olive barn]

like you got a friend that has it?

[fading basin]

yea

[olive barn]

you will both get ascendancy

[obtuse parrot]

I am in mid tier maps right now and unsure what to do tbh.
I am clearing slowly and steadily, but I'd like to upgrade.
I can't afford gear, because everything costs several divines.
I can't increase my rarity found to afford those, because those items cost several divines, meaning I can't get the currency to afford gear that gives me currency.

Do I just reach tier 15/16 maps first, and then focus on upgrading my gear and rarity to farm currency?

I tried looking for guides, how they approach the endgame, but instead I get to listen to basic shit like "how to usee the map device".

[fading basin]

got one for 1ex

same dude listed 2 at once

lowkey easy money if u get all the atlas things and just farm tier 1 maps and sell them

[past coyote]

Right, time for my second character this league- a mercenary.
Are there any really fast levelling strategies / builds out there?

[stoic shale]

hey can someone explain why mind over matter in the skill tree is telling me req not met im lvl 68

[ripe remnant]

is there any reason to kill all monsters on a map if i alr killed the bosses and it counts as complete?

[fringe canyon]

What are "Transcended Monsters"?

[ripe remnant]

i think it says that when the node you want to allocate is only connected through weapon points and you are trying to spend a regular skillpoint

you should be able to see a difference in color

[ripe remnant]

i got to 200% rarity increase by spending 15ex

(and a lucky orb of chance) so ~140 without that

[stoic shale]

Nada

[obtuse parrot]

The only way I see is Ventor's Gamble, but then I'll just die instantly from the -% resistances, no?

What do you recommend?

[ripe remnant]

what no there is gold amulet, gold ring, boots, helmet

[craggy pilot]

still don't see it after waiting near an hour

any ideas

[ripe remnant]

i also have that and just cleared a t1 map easily

but even without unique ring you can easily get 150 rarity increase

[obtuse parrot]

the -20% to all ele res is scary

[ripe remnant]

makes the game more fun 😄

[tropic geode]

g

[verbal wave]

any 4th ascension groups here?

[dense pumice]

Maybe some1 can help ... Played a Delirium map for the first time. Had 2x the same item and 1 other. So i tried combining them with my amulet (which i bought for my first ever Div orb), then it says i can't enhance the item with those things, and now all Delirium orbs and my amulet are gone.

Where is my amulet? 😦

[frosty glade]

are you sure its not on your stash tab?

we had cases where items moved to stash tabs from failed trading

[lethal axle]

How should stampede be built for clear now that armor explosions don't work as well?

[vestal sierra]

hello, any1 need helps with any early maps?

[lethal axle]

In the crafting window probably - open it with another distilled emotion

[vestal sierra]

eww first time post ^ why is there an xbox icon on my name!

k gone!

[charred chasm]

could someone tell me what i need to upgrade

[valid flint]

Is there a rough number I should be aiming for in terms of Health, ES, evasion and resistances now that my monk has finished the campaign and heading into endgame mapping? I feel like I am very low across the board in those areas, despite damage seemingly being okay relative to the beginning tier waystones.

[grand sun]

how do i scroll over to global to mute it on console, when i pull up the menu im stuck on local and guild

its hella annoying

nvm i got it in options

[merry tartan]

Guys can anyone give me a hand

That quest wont go away and Doryani (Past and Present) wont let me turn the quest not even in the refugee camp

[acoustic dove]

why do people join my party then immediately leave xd

[midnight kindle]

when does the next patch come out?

[gaunt sun]

What item Incrases quality on belt armor?

[sonic ice]

how hard is the arbiter of ash?

[silver warren]

Quick question: If I equip Iron Runes onto a weapon, will it only do 20% increased phys damage for that weapons phys damage or my total phys damage?

[midnight kindle]

that weapon

[vivid blaze]

Did anyone knows how they get uncorrupted T16 map?Don't you have to corrupt a T15 to get a T16?

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Standard/3bmOpG5I5 like these

[brave quarry]

How to use chance orb on a normal item it doesn’t let me ???

[silver warren]

Which item are you trying to chance orb?

[pliant lion]

is there any point in going to cruel act 3 temple of chaos over normal act 3 temple?

[tardy flare]

is logbook level relevant for fighting orlong?

[dense moth]

i've had this for a while but dorayani doesn't say anything. I've tried in the a3 zone and ho. do i have find him on the atlas?

[noble wigeon]

part of the end game atlas map, you have to find the citadels.

[dense moth]

ok so i don't have to intiate it with him?

[noble wigeon]

negative

[dense moth]

k thanks

[sterile delta]

there is quite a few ppl on global chat selling ascendancy point, does that mean they carry you through rewards room ? is this legit?

[haughty heath]

Can you pause or port out of Ultimatums like you can in sanctum?

[lofty grove]

how do people get so many divine orbs to be able to afford anything people are selling on the market at this point?

[cedar escarp]

What’s the best way to progress gear wise if I have gear with good stats but my resistance is pretty much non existent 😭

[lofty grove]

it feels like a case of the rich getting richer because they already have the gear to farm for currency and better drops causing prices to inflate more and more

[fading basin]

Whats the best way to target farm specific uniques? Like the polkciren ring

[gilded wadi]

Yes it can be done, but it is obviously possible for them to scam you if they ask you to pay up-front

[hot pier]

is there a hideout gambler npc?

[gilded wadi]

no

[nocturne jasper]

Is there a drop rate penalty if you farm low level bosses as a very high level player?

[kind token]

how do you set up diff skill gems per weapon swap?

[olive barn]

which one of these items have expensive uniques? I know saphire rings, stellar amulets and heavy belts do

[kind token]

apparently im supposed to be switching between blink and archmage on a weapon swap but im not sure how to set skill gems to specific gear sets

[granite ginkgo]

Hi! can someone help me clarify how this skill works exactly?

• It says ignites IN FRONT OF YOU gets consumed etc -
  its generic and it works into the skill range or it has a special range where this trigger?
  thx a lot

[iron sun]

can i play tier 16+ with those res?

[gilded wadi]

On each skill in the skills menu there is a arrow to the right of the skill that opens the advanced options for the skill. At the bottom will be something that allows you to select which weapon set the skill is used with

[gilded wadi]

yes

Elemental weakness maps will be little more dangerous because you aren't over-capped, but that isn't a big deal

[iron sun]

i see, so i should use the rune socket on my boots for extra evasion adn energy shield?

[gilded wadi]

That or chaos res (soul core)

[kind token]

holy thank u lifesaver 🫡

[iron sun]

ty

[iron sun]

bought the soul core for 4 exalted and put it, now all my res are 75 except lighting

[craggy tiger]

soo I have 2 Djin Barya's that grant ascendencies. Do I have to get an inscribed ultimatum to do my 4th? or can I do both in the Trial of Sekhma

[drifting breach]

Yes

[cunning nymph]

You get to choose between sekhema and chaos for every ascendency

[craggy tiger]

oh so I can just do both then at Sekhema?

[pliant lion]

im lightning arrow ranger what rune would be best for a chest piece?

[tardy flare]

meh i fought orloth twice and he dropped the same item

lame

[mild flare]

how do you get an instilling table in your hideout?

[drifting breach]

Always def

So iron i think it is

[pliant lion]

kk ty

[drifting breach]

Chest its always same runes

[onyx chasm]

done t15 on warrior now time for next build >.<

[drifting breach]

Lol

I don't think i could roll up another character

[onyx chasm]

oh i have done 2 already 😮

[drifting breach]

💀

U mad lad

[onyx chasm]

Stromwever and Warrior

[drifting breach]

Wild

I could never

[onyx chasm]

now Monk time but need a build to test that char 🤔

[drifting breach]

Obv do bow monk

[onyx chasm]

its EA so best time to try builds

i want to test ES how strong it is then armor

[drifting breach]

I might test build i wanna do on release

[onyx chasm]

Armor felt weak later in the game

[drifting breach]

But nothing else

[drifting breach]

Armour is very very weak

Compared to es

[vital dagger]

whats the chance for audience with the king to appear? i feel like i have done hundrens rituals..

[cunning nymph]

Yes

Pick whichever is easiest for you

I think the only one you can't choose on is the first. I believe that one can only be done through sekhema.

[vagrant summit]

what the hell, trialmaster decided to freeze time and just not unfreeze it

[cunning nymph]

He didn't want you to succeed

He's praying for your downfall

[drifting breach]

F

[proud vale]

mine did that sat there for a few mins and it came back

[warped tapir]

do Hideouts and Towers progress your "Complete T2+ Maps (2/10)" quest if used with a Tier 2 waystone?

[vagrant summit]

ty, did the same and won lol

[drifting breach]

Pretty sure it does

[cedar escarp]

What do I do with all the skill gems?

Like I have an influx of them

[nocturne jasper]

ive always used T1 maps to clear towers (even during t15 runs) since its much easier

[drifting breach]

Nothing or just sell lol

[drifting breach]

Towers are really good to get though those quests fast tho

Since they so short

[nocturne jasper]

yea but id rather get it done with and move on to bigger maps 😄

[drifting breach]

I mean for the atlas points is so good early

Improving maps

[viral blaze]

does it matter witch portal i choose to start map?

[drifting breach]

No

*which

[sturdy latch]

the lack of visual clarity in this game is starting to annoy me. what killed me there?

[drifting breach]

Its very clearly there?

[viral blaze]

mb king

[sturdy latch]

very helpful?

[fading basin]

How do you target specific uniques? I need a Polcirken

[past forge]

any thoughts on how to find citadels? does it matter if your revealing fog with a T1 or T15 tower? each citadel is biome-locked?

[drifting breach]

One of your enemies placed down a timed dmg area

[viral blaze]

btw do we have to kill everything on the map?

[drifting breach]

U can see the blue thing on ground in clip

[drifting breach]

No

[sturdy latch]

that faint line hiddein in the grass?

[drifting breach]

Only the rare enemies

It legit is not

[swift bronze]

are bosses included in this?

or is it specifically just "monsters"

[drifting breach]

You can legit see it just fine

[sturdy latch]

lol

[tardy flare]

i always wondered this

[drifting breach]

This

[opaque mason]

looks like a visual glitch, There is a faint blue light from whatever exploded

[viral blaze]

dang this maps are hard

[rustic wedge]

Do you get reduced exp on lower level maps the higher level you get?

[opaque mason]

Its likely a combination of lower exp the higher you get and more exp required to level

[rustic wedge]

yeah i mean I was getting a couple hundred k experience from completing maps there were giving 50m+ an hour before

So I assumed there was some level of drop off

[drifting breach]

U should get res to max

[glossy galleon]

is it normal to take 4-5s on white packs? Playing Galvanic Shards crossbow and I usually need a reload or two to clear one pack.

just hit t15s

[wide quarry]

Hi, anyone selling The Everlasting Gaze Azure Amulet for at most 30 exals, willing to buy. 🙂

[hardy sonnet]

its a struggle, you probably need better gear / fix stuff in build

[rustic wedge]

what tier maps?

[round knoll]

https://poe2db.tw/us/Prism_of_Belief#TradeSearch

[runic wolf]

Is the +10% chance of stronbox only affect the one that got Irradiated?

[rugged hamlet]

yeah but is there a way to search for a specific skill prism on trade?

[glossy galleon]

how do people scale damage? I already have a 500pdps crossbow which costed 1div, how important is flat damage on my glove and rings, and are there other sources of damage i should get to be able to do my t15s?

Not sure if this is intended design but needing multiple div of gear to do t15s feels a little backwards

[round knoll]

did you click the link?

[hardy sonnet]

im not too familiar with crossbows but on my cold invoker i didnt multi div gear to do t15s

[rustic wedge]

how many sockets do your skill gems have? Also why would you expect for it to be easy to do the hardest maps?

[upbeat geyser]

for atlas, is it better to branch out and travel in all directions at once or focus on going in one direction?

[viral blaze]

omggggg i keep dying

[hollow bane]

the fact you only have 3.6k efective health is what killed you here

[rugged hamlet]

oh now I see the trade tab- didn't know that was a thing on poedb thanks!

[glossy galleon]

5 link, i never expected it to be easy but at the same time i'd have expected to be able to do t15s with 2-3 divs worth of gear

[warped berry]

Ok I am lost, but maybe i'm an idiot - I ran a map after getting to the endgame place with the map device. I left after running a map to do a trade. Now I can't get back to that place to run maps. I haven't unlocked a hideout yet. What have I screwed up?

[glossy galleon]

but instead a single invuln aura rare in a breach completely bricks my map

[hardy sonnet]

are you following a build guide or home brew, maybe there's some key nodes in tree that you can respec to make it better etc

[rustic wedge]

Yeah it's hard to say. What's wrong with your gear/passive tree without seeing exactly the stats. You should be fine tbh

[glossy galleon]

half homebrew half build guide

[rustic wedge]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/fb52362f-f676-4e13-9b3c-20ba74063008/builds/af7fcff4-a64a-48a6-8903-0083fcd8942f?widgets-state=eyJmN2Q4MjEwMi03ZTc3LTRhNDQtYWQyNC0zM2I2N2U4YWU3YmYiOnsiZmlsdGVycyI6eyJhY3RpdmVWYXJpYW50SWQiOiJkZWZhdWx0LXZhcmlhbnQifSwidHlwZW5hbWUiOiJOZ2ZEb2N1bWVudENtV2lkZ2V0Q29udGVudFZhcmlhbnRzVjEifX0

[hollow bane]

people putting 0 investment into defences and wondering why they get one shot

[hardy sonnet]

cause monster health doesnt scale that much from t11 - t15

[glossy galleon]

and here i am wondering if i put too much invesrtment into defenses becasue my damage sucks

[sturdy latch]

ya relying on what the game is showing me was silly of me

[hollow bane]

pro tip, standing in acid fog not only damages you but obscures any enemies within

side note do make sure your elemental and chaos resist is high, especially chaos resist if running es

[sturdy latch]

well that acid fog is mine, but thanks

[hollow bane]

also running mind over matter will add your mana to your effective health pool for even more defence, only reason not to is if you are running high cost spells

[viral blaze]

Useless right?

[hollow bane]

its good... if you are starting a monk

i was tempted to try getting that on a monk to see how high the dmg can scale

[viral blaze]

Using this rn

should i start building more strenght or u think dex better for this wep?

[hollow bane]

it really just depends on what weapons and skills you're using

[hardy sonnet]

your stats depend on what your skillgems and equipment requirement wants

for monks its always a mix of dex and int unless you're doing a non generic build

[hollow bane]

so if you run quaterstaff you at least need to get enough dex and int to run the gear you want to use and the skills

[viral blaze]

im using ice strike and charged staff as main skills

with tempest bell

[hollow bane]

i was going to think for all characters run barely enough stats to use the skills/gear then rest in strength for hp but you can add mana as a hp layer if you get a keystone

[acoustic dove]

so more modifiers make enemies drop better loot?

[hardy sonnet]

no, more rarity

generally it does come with more modifiers but rarity is the key line

[haughty heath]

Anyone else running sanctum? Wondering what you are doing for your loadout.

been messing with key quant for the loot boxes at the end - its been alright. had a few raw divines drop, some really high rolled rares, and a huge chunk of jewels.

[acoustic dove]

whats the point of "deadly evolution" atlas passive

[hollow bane]

some modifiers will add to the waystone drop chance on the waystone but there are others like more magic enemies that will not

[lyric jolt]

Delirium is so buggy lmao

It just doesn’t work half the time

[viral blaze]

5.5 atk per second lmfao

[hardy sonnet]

its not good for monk, its good if you're playing a stat stacking build

[gray ore]

does the logbook say if youre gonna face the boss?

[cosmic lava]

is the bird boss in chaos trial impossible to beat lol

[viral blaze]

thats sad to hear

btw how do we complete map i dont see any portal?

[hardy sonnet]

kill all rares

[viral blaze]

yeh i completly cleared map

[hardy sonnet]

then just portal out and the node should be done which lets you waystone onto another one

[viral blaze]

ah ok

[swift bronze]

is my map glitched?

[hardy sonnet]

probably affliction that hides rewards

[kindred kraken]

For some reason my Set All Price in my stash isn't working at all? It's set to public and I've tried restarting my game, adjusting the price, and even trying different tabs and I can't get it to work at all. It was just working fine earlier today

[swift bronze]

the only affliction i have that would affect my map

is hiding rewards

wtf

i thought it would just block out

what it gives me

??

not the whole thing

[hardy sonnet]

well, the reward is the middle of the icon

so its not showing you that anymore

[swift bronze]

what the fuck

[hardy sonnet]

rewards being like "fountain" "shop" etc

[swift bronze]

i should have just picked black smoke

that is crazy

[kindred kraken]

anyone know a fix for this or what I can do?

[swift bronze]

i can see like 3 rooms ahead

they need to reword that

[hardy sonnet]

well, poe is a language i guess

[swift bronze]

jesus

that's a run ender

[sage marsh]

can anyone help with 4th ascension? i just cant even seem to beat it once because of modifiers, i deal great damage tho bosses get melted

[hardy sonnet]

the one that teleports you to random rooms is the real run ender

[swift bronze]

man i had so many good boons too

[obtuse parrot]

I have 3 questions about rarity (new player, bear with me pls)

1. Why is everyone talking about rarity being such a problem, when stuff like Ingenuity, rarity rings WITHOUT -20% all res and mahu shield cost multiple divines, and other rarity items not really giving a significant amount?

2. I have 2x Andvarius (60% increased rarity, but -20% all ele res), is this worth equipping? If not, how do you even get a significant amount of rarity while also staying res capped?

3. At what point are you expected to get your 4th ascendancy and 5th support slots?
   I'm not getting any Perfect Jewelled Orbs (running tier 11 maps right now), and they cost divines in trade.

[violet edge]

you can't transmute logbooks?

[amber helm]

stuff like Ingenuity, rarity rings WITHOUT -20% all res and mahu shield cost multiple divines,
that only makes it worse - it means it's only avaliable to the already wealthy, further increasing the divide between new and experienced players.
other rarity items not really giving a significant amount? :think:
not really, you get like 25%+ rarity on a few rare suffixes and it makes a world of difference.

andvarius is really hard to fit, so most dont bother i think

[viral blaze]

i hate vultures soo much

[amber helm]

the album?

[obtuse parrot]

jumps on you
does 80% of your hp
refuses to elaborate
leaves

[viral blaze]

real 🤣

[hazy dirge]

Does the level of your djin barya affect the difficulty of your 4th ascendancy run?

[obtuse parrot]

That makes sense.
I guess my confusion is that I had some luck getting +rarity and have 60% rarity with res caps, but I see people say you should strive for 300+ rarity, and I'm unsure how or when I'm supposed to go for that.

[valid latch]

Any1 here who can do expeditions T15/16 with titan? If I blow up more than 4 I do 0 dmg and white mobs 1 shot me wtf

Breaches idc

[amber helm]

you get the divs, buy the shield

[valid latch]

People who are lvl 95 and >300 rarity have a high roll ingenuity which is already like 50 div and morior invictus and make up for having so much dmg they kill everything in 100ms

You have to be deadeye or sorc to make it work

I've yet to see any warrior MF build work personally

[obtuse parrot]

Why Deadeye or Sorc specifically?
I'm running Minion Witches

(sry if dumb questions, I'm a new player lol)

[valid latch]

They have enough damage and range everything on the screen eyes obliterated in milliseconds so they can sacrifice defenses in general OR if you're archmage spark sorc you have mind over matter (mana takes dmg over life) and chaos inoculation (immune to chaos but 1hp) and they have 9k mana

[hardy sonnet]

basically just the strongest / fastest builds

[valid latch]

So they can sacrifice some damage/defense in their items for rarity

[obtuse parrot]

But don't you need to have expensive gear to do that in the first place

[valid latch]

Mostly ingenuity belt and morior invictus body armor

[obtuse parrot]

Which are expensive

[hardy sonnet]

the overarching problem that rarity has is that it affects player experience way too much

[amber helm]

thats one of the problems with the system, yeah

[valid latch]

You don't but I'm talking about people who are breezing through lvl 82 maps solo and have >300

[obtuse parrot]

Hmmm

[valid latch]

They are literally 1 button builds maybe 2 buttons for bosses

[obtuse parrot]

How did they get to that point in the first place, is what I'm wondering tbh

[valid latch]

If you can slot in a temporalis and sacrifice morior then you get a 0s blink to do maps x3 faster

[viral blaze]

some maps have such bad color tht i cant even tell whats on floor

[valid latch]

Warrior has nothing even remotely close to the clearing speed of any ranged class

If you can afford 200div monk is probably faster with the tri attribute build

[obtuse parrot]

How do I get from lv 82 with pleb gear in tier 11 maps to that point?

[steel grotto]

I'm running witch minions and I'm on t8 maps and thee's no way I can afford to run more rarity without giving up resist

[valid latch]

https://youtu.be/zVKwreDZxYo

[hardy sonnet]

a lot of experience in progression and how poe economy works

[obtuse parrot]

I was hoping to rely on your experience

[viral blaze]

wtf is this lol

[steel grotto]

mean while I take 10 seconds to clear 1 pack of mobs XD

[thin river]

So how does the trading site works? Does everything really get exchange via exalted/divine orbs?

[steel grotto]

yep

[obtuse parrot]

Take it as a "So, what am I supposed to do now" post if you will

[valid latch]

Yeah I never played poe1 but after diving into a lot of videos from experts who played poe1 on release they find the most broken builds, become top 0.5% compared to the avg player base, buy the items they need early for like 25ex before they become insanely expensive like 10div right now

[steel grotto]

Need better gear to run higher maps but you need exalt/divs for that and well you need higher maps and more rairty to do so which cost exalts and divs lol

[thin river]

Great, I wasted all my exalted orb in the past for low level items

[faint swan]

this means multiplicative right?

more for multi increased for added? or backwards

[obtuse parrot]

[valid latch]

Also a lot of these people seem to have theorycrafted on the act 1 beta or whatever earlier this year what would be broken which I didn't play myself

More is multiplicative increased is additive

[upbeat geyser]

for atlas, is it better to branch out and travel in all directions at once or focus on going in one direction?

[faint swan]

gotcha

[swift bronze]

uh

any idea why i can't see my item listing on the trade website?

[obtuse parrot]

relog

helped me with that

[swift bronze]

from the website

or from the game

[obtuse parrot]

both

[valid latch]

Tbh makes me feel bad for picking the "wrong" class of warrior because other classes have these insane builds but then again I know PoE2 is a PvE game and I'm just ruining my enjoyment comparing myself to the top 0.1% builds

[viral blaze]

i though i was the only one lmfao

and i still die xD

[obtuse parrot]

I'm only confused because I don't know how I would get there in the first place

[split flame]

generally speaking, you want to prioritize higher value tiles to use your better waypoints on. unless you really have your shit figured out and want to beeline a citadel, you spread out to knockout plain tiles to use juiced waypoints on boss/ritual/expi/deli tiles

[fresh grove]

how do you get the last two points for the boss nodes in atlas tree? irradiated+corruption+t16 waystone didnt do it

[hardy sonnet]

the game is just not balanced in that sense, the same problem has existed for years in poe1

[steel grotto]

which is why EA is a thing and hopefully they tune alot of things with time

[valid latch]

AFAIK these are people who have >10yrs of PoE experience and understand what is ported into PoE2, they know how to level and grind efficiently, and are good at theorycrafting strong builds

[steel grotto]

like witch minions are good for clearing but they suck when it comes to breaches.

at least mine does 🙂

[split flame]

I can't imagine they're not thinking about how to adjust armour to make it more inline with ev/es

[valid latch]

Standard just amplifies the top 0.1% from the rest of the player base because they know not only how to play efficiently but also how to play the market and what's "value" and how to grind currency fast

[viral blaze]

this stuff active only in certain range or how does it work

[obtuse parrot]

needs to path from the first node

[split flame]

you place charges to blow the totems, starting from the first node. limited distance each charge can be from the previous

[viral blaze]

oh

[valid latch]

If I blow up more than 3 of those on any T15 expedition I die from white mobs smfh

[split flame]

if you mean the modifiers, they affect all monsters that spawn as described

[obtuse parrot]

Title: "This build is really cool and fun"
checks gear
Temporalis for 2x Mirror

[swift bronze]

i listed it just to see the dps now i'm getting spam dm'd

[viral blaze]

im losing my mind with stuns

[swift bronze]

[valid latch]

I mean look at the top 1000 standard ladder in class breakdown it's like 50% sorcs

Out of the top 1000 players by XP, there are a total of like 45 warriors

[obtuse parrot]

Is it because of Temporalis?

[viral blaze]

shame on them

[split flame]

my strategy is to place the charges and light the fuse, and haul ass on my escape route to let everything spawn and then slowly work my way in

[valid latch]

Yeah or if you're playing arcmage spark u spam spark for 2 seconds and everything dies on ur screen

[obtuse parrot]

does that need anything expensive? I might try it out

My main issue is that I'm doing tier 11 maps, and I got kinda...
IDK what to do and what to aim for lol

[split flame]

nothing to be gained from comparing what you have to what others use, gotta make the best of it

or just make a sorc

[valid latch]

Not really I think you can get away with doing everything endgame including xesht and arbiter solo for maybe 150ex worth (under 2 div)

Unironically

[obtuse parrot]

150 ex is like 10 times what I have

kekw

[split flame]

well now you know what to aim for

[errant wraith]

is -4 damage from astramentis a joke or does that decrease a lot of damage

[split flame]

150 ex

[obtuse parrot]

lol

[valid latch]

Meme No1 cares about it it's the all stats

It's core on tri attribute builds either on monk or gemling legionnaire

[obtuse parrot]

I couldn't find a decent build that wasn't "ok first of all you need temporalis for 2x mirror"

[valid latch]

I've seen some lvl 90 gemlings be tanker than pure defensive titans with 10k hp

And something like 900 str

[split flame]

Idk anything about sorc builds

[bright lark]

can someone explain this plz "Corrupted Waystones are Corrupted an additional time when used to traverse a Map"

[cosmic flicker]

What's a good search queue on poe trade for waystones

[spare violet]

I cant believe i thought my infernalist was squishy, i just tried 2 other classes to 75 and they are wayyyy squishier lol

[split flame]

if you use a waystone that you vaal'd it vaal's it again

iirc

[split flame]

start with what you're looking for

xp? items?

more waystones?

[cosmic flicker]

I just literally want any waystones above tier 10

that's all I don't care too much about mods yet

and to buy in bulk

[spare violet]

Exp ones are expensive theres a bulk option

[cosmic flicker]

idc if they're white tbh

I just wanna get blasting lol

[split flame]

then look for combat mods that you can tolerate to juice waystone drops, and some item quant/rarity if you can afford it

[abstract marsh]

Anyone know wtf is going on performance wise

[split flame]

you generally atleast want to transmutate/aug a white

getting combat mods to increase waystone drops chance helps you

alot

[cosmic flicker]

yeah but I can do that myself

I don't need to trade for it blue

[valid latch]

I have a 3080 and i9 and the game still shits itself on breaches and I dip down to 25 FPS

Cringe performance

[cosmic flicker]

No I mean I'm literally on POE trade and just enter "Waystones" and nothing comes up, so I assume I'm doing something wrong, lmao

[cosmic flicker]

1 ex each is expensive af right

[split flame]

make sure you use "in this area" versions of item rarity/ quant

[valid latch]

1ex for a T3

[cosmic flicker]

Like area level?

[viral blaze]

Does this have potential if lvled?

[cosmic flicker]

Could you share that search link?

[viral blaze]

Im desperate for new gear my dps sucks

[cosmic flicker]

And I can go from there

[valid latch]

Realistically so many people are putting up waystones just filter for cheaper currency like regals or something for anything below T10

[split flame]

make sure you use the right versions of the tags

[cosmic flicker]

Even if I have no filters up

nothing showing up :l

I'm sorry

[valid latch]

I think the only thing worth 1ex are magic/rare T15s and T16s go for like 3-5ex

[cosmic flicker]

I'm struggling lol

I'm trying the bulk item exchange section too but nothing

[split flame]

all thefilters

you might want to search for something else, if it's still bugging, try logging out and in

[cosmic flicker]

This gives me nothing whatsoever

[split flame]

yeah I almost want to pity buy if it wouldn't give bad expections

[split flame]

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Standard/vG60l2WuE ?

[cosmic flicker]

oh I need to put a min in damn

I don't think there's a way to request in bulk though which sucks

[split flame]

yeah it cutoff in your screenshot but you need to specify a currency

[cosmic flicker]

is there a way to request like

10 stones for 3 ex etc

[split flame]

ingame chat

I haven't gotten the website to work for bulks

[alpine rivet]

thoughts? end of a2 start of a3

[tranquil mountain]

Is there a way to filter the trade site for this sort of stat?

"allocates" exists in the filters but doesn't seem like it is usable.

[glossy galleon]

stuck in the trial of sekhemas,, theres some Find The Exit challenge where I need to hit levers to open doors, but it seems impossible to reach one of the doors as that door is only open when i'm walled off from it. Anyone understand what I'm talking about?

[spare violet]

You can do that with delirium tho

[wind nebula]

For the Vaults of Kamasa, do I just put in a t1 map or should i juice it up? Will the vaults/chests in there have better loot that way?

[split flame]

unless your room is glitched, you might have missed a lever in some other area?

[glossy galleon]

can the room get glitched?

[split flame]

I mean it's EA

I've had bosses just not spawn

[glossy galleon]

because i'm lost half my honor just running around looking for a missing switch

[daring crest]

whats easier for 4th ascend, 4 floors of sekhemas or 10 floors of chaos?

[hardy sonnet]

switch might be on the higher ground where you started at

[glossy galleon]

it wasnt but i just figured it out

what i thought was a trap was some time rewind thing

that would solve the puzzle

[loud fable]

hey guys i am doing a rare with mana drain and proximal tangibility

why does it drain my hp so fast as well?

[hardy sonnet]

consensus is that if your build can do 10 floor chaos, 4 floors is easier

since chaos relies on a lot of rng still

[split flame]

most people do sek, if you can beat 10 room chaos you should be able to do 4 floor sek

[daring crest]

okay, I'll try 4 sekhemas then. This was my 3rd sekhemas result

[gilded wadi]

IF you do chaos, it is NOT just 10 trials of chaos. You would have to do 10 trials 3x and then beat the final boss

[split flame]

^ also that

[daring crest]

way wha, why 3x. You dont get the pts immediatly after finishing the 10

[split flame]

if they have a damage aura (lightning, chill, etc) I think the drain aura also deals damage, I think

[gilded wadi]

you have the beat the boss to get the points. Each time through 10 trials you get a part of the key to access the boss

[split flame]

Idk the first time I ran into a prox/drain rare it was a giant bug that I struggled to kill for 10 seconds before wiping

[daring crest]

wow wtf. Sounds rly tedious. But I guess after 10, you get to keep that part of the key as a checkpoint?

[split flame]

trials final boss is accessed with 3 keys, you get each key from one of the room 10 bosses

[split flame]

I think that's the design intention- three shorter (relatively) runs vs. 1 continuous run

[daring crest]

welp, I hope I don't get scammed with generator out of sync with sekhemas then

tnx for the insight

[alpine rivet]

is this good for start of act 3

[gilded wadi]

There is a 1-shot mechanic for the final 4th floor boss you MAY want to lookup a video for if you haven't seen it. It isn't hard, but if you don't know what to do, you just insta-die

[viral blaze]

its beyond me how i still get stunned with stun charm 😄

[split flame]

I wiped my T4 ascen twice before saying vaal it and joined a carry tbh

[jolly magnet]

where might i go to get a carry for 3rd and 4th ascendancy? i was pointed here...

[daring crest]

the tick tock one?

[gilded wadi]

yeah

[alpine rivet]

#2┃looking-for-group

[daring crest]

yeah, I might get fkd there. Might need to find some +MS relics if I fail it

[glossy galleon]

is the final boss of sanctum hard? Worried I don't have enough honour for it, already had quite a bit of trouble with the scorpion on floor 3

[split flame]

I never managed to solo it so

I'd say yes

but I might just be bad

[signal helm]

How many chance shards is a regal orb worth ? I have unique that aren’t selling , is it worth selling it for a regal or should I jsut break them down ?

[split flame]

not worth it, it seems

[cloud sun]

Will coming calamity be significantly stronger?

Im doing fire titan build

Its just so mucb more expensive

So idk if its worth it for calamity

[frigid lantern]

anyone know why armourer's scraps cost 2 for 1 ex orb? lol

[gilded wadi]

The final sanctum boss just takes a very long time to kill. I don't think he does much damage, but the fight takes so long that his damage adds up.

I did kill him once.... and it bugged and didn't give me my points 😦

[glossy galleon]

then is it possible to get a carry for this while i'm already inside, just before starting the boss?

[subtle roost]

final sanctum boss is mostly a bullet sponge yeah

doesn't really hurt all that much if you have max honor resist

[glossy galleon]

i'm life based and have the 0 armour affliction

around 55% honor res

so i dont have much base honor to work with (currently at 1.4k)

also dont have high movespeed

so i dont know if i can do the oneshot phase

[craggy tiger]

does anyone know the maximum level of a skill gem? debating on vaaling a skill and want to know how far off max it is

i know up to 19 exist right, is there farther than that?

[olive barn]

21 with vaal but it doesnt work

dps tooltip stayed the same for me

[craggy tiger]

gotcha

[split flame]

I'm a dumbass who insists on blindfighting bosses and the mechanics got me, but the boss didn't dps me.

[olive barn]

so just grab a 20 and call it done

[spare violet]

Thats a bit ballsy to use a vaal on that

[craggy tiger]

read my status

[devout saffron]

does it matter what waystone i use on this?

[gilded wadi]

20's are extremely rare, but they do exist

And you can vaal that to 21

[split flame]

per my understanding of how it works, yes calamity is better? Ash doesn't have a trigger effect, so it should always be on? But I haven't used it so can't promise

[gray ore]

where do you wait for people to join you to sell ascendancy?

[viral blaze]

idk i die every second map

[tardy wave]

why when i have 100 spirit and put on a chest piece with +100 spirit it only goes to 104?

[cloud sun]

Ye ash will always be on

[dapper mesa]

im stuck on a ascen trail in sekemas can anyone help me out>

[cloud sun]

Mayve ill run burn away

[split flame]

then yes it should be stronger

[cloud sun]

Then slowly switch into that?

Cuz its like triple the cost

Thanks tho

[split flame]

probably for the best

iso/suff is steep, yea

[split flame]

like, for a carry? you use the exit trial run from the altar in the room before the boss

then goto the hub, invite people, and go in when ready as instructed

[dapper mesa]

can someone help me figure this puzzle out plz

[merry estuary]

how strong do u have to be before attempting a citadel?

[cinder quartz]

hey guys looking for help with support gems for ember fusilade late game

is anyone running it?

[gilded wadi]

idk, I can farm T15/T16 maps all day with pretty much no issues. I've tried two citadels and died to both boss fights.

[split flame]

I don't run it #2┃build-planning might be more helpful than here

[gilded wadi]

Make sure you respec your atlas out of anything that makes rares more difficult since that affects the bosses

[cinder quartz]

Thanks wil lpost there

[merry estuary]

dang, so u did that and u still died? @gilded wadi

[gilded wadi]

No I did not. Wish I knew beforehand lol

[split flame]

the more you know (I didn't know)

[merry estuary]

ahh okay, thanks

[nocturne jasper]

How does the Delirium Fog direction work? Is it random or is there a pattern/way of identifying which way it is going?

[merry estuary]

and when u die u have to find a new one right?

[gilded wadi]

One of the bosses had mana siphon + fire trail and was a fast melee boss. So I had no mana and if I ran around I would be running over his fire trails constantly.

yep

[merry estuary]

ok, thanks for insight

[merry estuary]

its random the pattern doesnt really say anything

i just run around following the mirror

and if it goes off the map sometimes o well

[split flame]

direction is randomized

it generally forms a donut shape on the map though, with the center ending the fog

but the maps don't always allow for you to follow the donut, so backtracking or forced endings happen

[hardy sonnet]

not on the map, from the mirror

[split flame]

the donut is centered from the mirrow?

huh

[hardy sonnet]

normally

[split flame]

always thought it was the map

[hardy sonnet]

otherwise you wouldnt be in the fog if your mirror is off the side

[nocturne jasper]

Welp I'm just unlucky then. First I had a fog that never spawned anything and now a fog that ended as soon as it began :/

[hardy sonnet]

So far it feels mostly the same as poe1, which was a lot more distinct

[austere igloo]

Huh. What's that. Cannot use skills or portal. Random bug? Happened right after clicking shrine. Removing shrine buff didn't help.

[drifting breach]

wtf

you have div?

also your in wrong chat if your in act 3

[alpine rivet]

wdym div?

oh

na i got an exalt, and theres a trade for 1 exalt for 1 divb

[drifting breach]

costs 1 divine

[stark dove]

how do i scale unarmed dmg? flat dmg?

[drifting breach]

that one is fake

[alpine rivet]

ye i found out

[drifting breach]

1 div= 70 ex

[alpine rivet]

no response

[drifting breach]

yeahh

evne if u did

not good to do that

a lot more effective to just trade for ex

and then just buy like 10ex gear

[alpine rivet]

im a warrior class, but i like using the qstafrf and skills way more than warrior

but im end of act 2 so idk if its worth redoing it all from scratch as monk

[drifting breach]

what level?

[alpine rivet]

35

[drifting breach]

yeah resetting is fine, your not too far in

wont take u long

[alpine rivet]

mhmm

ok so then i gotta ask

for monk

whats important? armour? evasion rating? energy shielf?

[drifting breach]

monk is mostly eva

[alpine rivet]

evasion rating kk

[drifting breach]

eva and es

most eva

[alpine rivet]

and it is better to focus on one element or is mixing them fine?

[drifting breach]

id also reco u ask questions in the chat above btw 🙂

this is for 65+ people

[alpine rivet]

oh yeah true

[subtle roost]

I focus on just cold. works fine

you only get so many skill points

[drifting breach]

mixing 2 is fine

but 3 is nono

[subtle roost]

yeah, 2 is probably fine

[jagged hound]

Is there any way to get max res besides soul cores and uniques?

[alpine rivet]

kk so like, fire and cold

[subtle roost]

jewels

[alpine rivet]

what would be the opposite for lightning?

[subtle roost]

fire and cold is ok, just suboptimal (maybe?)

I'd do cold and lightning

[jagged hound]

Wait really? Goddamn

[drifting breach]

honestly for poe2, you can play blind for most of game

you cant brick builds like poe1

[subtle roost]

experiment

it's FUN

[drifting breach]

thank god they made experimenting viable

unlike poe2

*1

[subtle roost]

LOL

[drifting breach]

its true tho

you kinda fked if you try experimenting

[subtle roost]

not really, but I don't think that discussion is for here

[wind nebula]

How do I see the range a tower's ring extends to?

[subtle roost]

it's bugged

shows only inconsistently

[stiff musk]

how hard is breachstone

[gilded wadi]

I think it just depends on how well you can dodge the bosses attacks since many will 1-shot you unless maybe if you are an ES stacker

[agile karma]

do resistnces affect the shield^

[stiff musk]

i have grim soul + eternal youth

is that enough

[subtle roost]

yikes

fix your resists

[gilded wadi]

I haven't gone in with an ES build so I am not sure how much you would need. I did go in with 2k life and 1k es and that was not enough. I would definitely cap your resistances though.

[stiff musk]

im still wondering if i should put +5% ele res rune in my boots and glove

for max res

i had max res until i used this

[austere igloo]

What the purpose of this node if its gives phys reduction and not armour?
lol. i just thought about that.

[stiff musk]

?

[austere igloo]

?

[stiff musk]

its armour

armour gives u phys dmg reduction

[austere igloo]

No. Its physical damage reduction

[austere igloo]

Yes. But it gives no armour.

[stiff musk]

dude-

u get armour

[gilded wadi]

I read it as (pseudo) Armor = (real) Armor + Evasion

[stiff musk]

base on ev and es

[austere igloo]

No.

[stiff musk]

it doesnt show that u have armour

[subtle roost]

is based on your combined armor and evasion

lol

[stiff musk]

holy shit

[austere igloo]

Yes, but physical damage reduction is uselss without flat armour

what the purpose of that.

[stiff musk]

mb still same thing

[stiff musk]

bro

[viral blaze]

Good for monk right 😄

[austere igloo]

No.

[subtle roost]

read the notable again

maybe three times

[stiff musk]

u dont have armour value

but that node allows ur evasion to be counted as armour

[subtle roost]

it does what it says

[austere igloo]

Cool. I understand this. I understand what is written.

It say phys reduction FROM armour estimated by phys and evasion.

[subtle roost]

much like dmg against monsters increasing damage against bosses in sekhemas

[austere igloo]

I have NO armour.

[stiff musk]

oh god

[viral blaze]

oh though u were talking about mine for a second

[drifting breach]

does anyone have any spare breach tablets I can buy? no one is responding on trade site

[stiff musk]

IT SAYS FROMMM

[austere igloo]

Yes, sorry, fixed it.

[stiff musk]

ok so do u get it

[drifting breach]

legit like 20 trades now lol

[austere igloo]

Phsical damage reduction come from armour itself.
If I have 100 armour I gona get some % of armour reduction.
It works TOGETHER in PoE1 as well as PoE2

This node gives Physical damage reduction FROM armour based on evasion and armour rating.

And I have NO armour.

[drifting breach]

how do I get tablets when no one responds to trade? and I cant drop any?

[austere igloo]

@stiff musk example from PoE1.

[stiff musk]

theres no point showing that

how do i explain better

[subtle roost]

really zero point lol

[stiff musk]

@austere igloo u get armour base on ur evasion

it doesnt show convert evasion to armour

and shows in ur stat

[subtle roost]

your evasion counts towards phys dmg reduction after taking that node

[stiff musk]

thats why u still have % armour

[gilded wadi]

When the game asks "how much does armor contribute to reducing the dmg of this physical hit?" it is going to use both your evasion and your armor if you have that node

[stiff musk]

because thats from evasion

UR GEAR has 0 armour

but evasion gives u 65% armour

[austere igloo]

Cool. So it's just a BUG?

[stiff musk]

oh god

[subtle roost]

lmao

[stiff musk]

i just explained

[subtle roost]

[austere igloo]

I mean, I understand that.

Okay

[stiff musk]

ok stop typing and read

[austere igloo]

I did.

[stiff musk]

ur gear has 0 armour

so in ur stat

it shows 0 armour

[austere igloo]

Okay, answer me:
It's working, right? Or not?

[stiff musk]

yes. do u see the 65%?

its not 0%

so its working

[gilded wadi]

PDR = fn(armor, evasion)

and evasion is only used when you have that node

[turbid kernel]

Is there a way to tell whether or not a map is in range of a tower you haven't activated yet?

[lofty grove]

How are you supposed to maintain stock of higher tier maps? I'm not getting any high tier maps to drop even though my atlas tree is set up to maximize waystone drops and tiers

Okay. I can't understand that:
HOW much effective my Physical damage reduction, like, lets pick PoE1 graph from top as example if it would be poe1.

[viral blaze]

lets go my first map completed!

[stiff musk]

[austere igloo]

@stiff musk what amount of damage mine 65% damage reduction would metigate to make it 50% of damage?

[gilded wadi]

Juice your maps (more mobs, more rare mobs), do boss maps, do breaches

[subtle roost]

define higher-tier maps and can you show your atlas? also, what are you doing to juice your maps?

[turbid kernel]

I've found map bosses are key right now. Waystone drop rate seems pretty low from normal monsters but very high from bosses.

I think Zizaran also has a video on map sustain, I haven't watched it but you can check it out if you want.

[lofty grove]

I've been throwing the 2 magic mods on it and then blowing a regal orb

[subtle roost]

what tier?

[narrow hearth]

look at mine atm XD

[viral blaze]

i have 2 atlas skill points what should i pick?

[lofty grove]

I've completed all of them but I only have T14 maps, and I'm not getting more. Also my tree

[viral blaze]

im thinking item rarity?

[viral blaze]

what did u focus first?

[subtle roost]

might want to consider alching t14s or exalting

especially if there's breach, expedition, or a boss

[gilded wadi]

For T13+ roughly, I think it is worth alch/exalt/vaal'ing maps

[lofty grove]

I'm trying to get currency in the first place because I don't have a whole lot

[narrow hearth]

mine for reference, also do t15 on bosses only if you are struggling on finding them - breaches are good for waystones too

[subtle roost]

how much rarity do you have?

[stiff musk]

i mean this is 20% chance for higher teir waystone

[austere igloo]

Bro please. I'm getting lost.

[narrow hearth]

and rarity is big btw dont skimp on the stats

[stiff musk]

u shld get it

[lofty grove]

where do I see that?

[stiff musk]

also i think rarity is a scam

[subtle roost]

open your primary skill page

scroll down to rarity on kill

[narrow hearth]

its not im sorry but i will fight you on this

[stiff musk]

i dont get anything

i have gotten 3 exalts from 5 t15

[viral blaze]

oof

[gilded wadi]

take it all off and see what happens

[stiff musk]

i get 1

exalt

[lofty grove]

I have 36%

[subtle roost]

get more

[lofty grove]

I only started trying to build rarity

[subtle roost]

80~

[lofty grove]

but again I need currency

[subtle roost]

it makes a big difference

[narrow hearth]

already with this i get at least 3 exalt per map

[stiff musk]

when does rarity start getting good

[stiff musk]

how

with this i get 3exalt in 5 T15

[gilded wadi]

Spending currency on high tier maps is almost never wasted

[stiff musk]

breaches

[gilded wadi]

I don't believe that can be your average. Maybe you are on a dry streak, but that simply cannot be your average if you are doing high tier juiced maps

[lofty grove]

how can I easily get more rarity on gear without sacrificing my defences?

everything is stupid expensive

[stiff musk]

ill go do another

btw is breachstone hard

i want to do 1 but im scared ill die and lose 1div

[subtle roost]

it's not always easy

and very dependent on build

[lofty grove]

Right. Like I have some gear in storage with more rarity but I already die sometimes in maps so I'm afraid to drop my defences for it

[subtle roost]

if you're running deadeye or ice invoker i can probably offer advice

otherwise idk

[lofty grove]

so I don't know what else I can do

[stiff musk]

enough res and dps?

im using eternal youth so my life flask heals 2k+ es

and the breach before xehst will max my grim feast

[subtle roost]

protect me from harm is really nice

[stiff musk]

its not good

[lofty grove]

I'm playing minion infernalist, was using arsonists but currently trying frost mages out

[stiff musk]

i tested it

[subtle roost]

okay

[wind nebula]

Yeah you just get one shot anywayus

[stiff musk]

it scales badly into late game

[subtle roost]

ah sure

[jagged hound]

Are Breach mobs actually able to drop things?

[subtle roost]

makes sense since armor is mid against 1 shot dps

[wind nebula]

Unbound Avatar is very nice

Big DPS boost button for 10 seconds

[stiff musk]

i could take unbound

but not sure if ill die to the boss

i seen a sorcerer took 6k+ dmg in 1 hit

[plain crypt]

i've seen sorcs deal 1m dmg with a single hit

[gilded wadi]

Just don't get hit, easy, right? 🙂

[stiff musk]

will this make xehst + 1

[austere igloo]

@stiff musk okay, I figured out. It's not (Physical damage reduction) from (Armour), right?
It's basicaly physical damage reduction from evasion rating that cutted for 40%. So the evasion plays a role of "flat armour" in that case?

[wind nebula]

You will but my plan is just one shotting it before it one shots me B)

[stiff musk]

ill just get someone to carry my ass im scared

so much MF do i need for it to be good

[viral blaze]

wow shade freezes u for like 5 sec or smtn?

[lofty grove]

Sorry to keep asking questions, but how does delirium actually work? I've had maps where I go the whole map without getting kicked out but more often than not a timer just appears and kicks me out pretty quickly

[olive barn]

how do i do wave 16

[narrow hearth]

you might just have bad luck but i am getting better, at least 2 per map -- i tried a 300 percent rarity only build on a t14 breach and in 3 hours i netted 150 exes

[stiff musk]

wtf

[vagrant parcel]

any disadvanatge in unskilling +1 boss difficulty nodes when attempting a citadel?

[narrow hearth]

AND a div. it was really insane

[stiff musk]

i have double ur MF but earning 100x lessr

[narrow hearth]

is not that consistant but do breeches???

breaches

[shy sky]

Is it okay if I ask about an item price ? When I opened the trade website people listing it for 1 ex so I did the same but got a lot dm so I thought something is wrong so I double check and found some people listing it for a looot so I couldn’t tell

[stiff musk]

yea i actually dont earn anything

i had a map with 3 breaches

1 exalted

[narrow hearth]

the multi breaches fucking suck i also got nothing when they were 3 smaller breaches

[olive barn]

whats MF

[stiff musk]

magic find

[shy sky]

Magic find

[stiff musk]

what do u farm then

[olive barn]

meaning

[stiff musk]

i wanted to farm ritual but it cost 20div for the atlas

[stiff musk]

IIR

increase IIR

alot

[subtle roost]

price fixing is a thing

[olive barn]

nice. do you know if this affects simulacrum?

[narrow hearth]

just breaches with high magic find but i didnt find a way to do a one breach map, so i just push longer breaches in dense maps with more magic find on the waystone

[olive barn]

and how much is a lot?

[gilded wadi]

that stat

[stiff musk]

hm

[subtle roost]

MF is from Diablo II, in PoE2 MF = Rarity

maybe even D1 idk

[stiff musk]

@narrow hearth how hard is breachstone

[stiff musk]

good ol days

[agile karma]

which item has a chance to become hand of wisdom with chance orb

[narrow hearth]

i didnt find it that hard honestly because i have aoe mace strike so i just stroll through

[shy sky]

Okay I see it’s make since, if you help me just how much is approximately worth would be nice if you cause the trade page for this item is crazy

[stiff musk]

wanna help me

im scared ill die lol

[olive barn]

ill help you

[narrow hearth]

okay we can try i have a 300 percent magic find gear you would be super squishy though

[stiff musk]

i have 16k es

[olive barn]

that effects drops from all sources?

[stiff musk]

with grim feast

[subtle roost]

I have no clue, but you can plug in those exact values for increased <attribute> and probably get a good idea

just make sure you're doing exact

[narrow hearth]

person has to be 6 meter around me so the kill counts as theirs

[narrow hearth]

we can give it a shot

[stiff musk]

ight message me rytze

[austere igloo]

Sorry, I understand its traumatic experience.
Okay, that's a good example to try to explain, what do I mean/trying to figure out.
In terms of PoE1: if character getting hitted by 100 damage, it would require 500 armour to metigate 50% of this damege (To get hit for 50 damage)

So, if Physical Damage Reduction in PoE1 would be based of evasion, and if I would have 500 evasion it would cut 100 damage to 50 too, right?

So what happening in PoE2 right now, is the Damage reduction based on Evasion and from now on If I want to count how much damage I able to cut in two I would need to use evsaion (and a little bit different formula, where is 5 replace with 12)

The thing is: I can't use the % stat from physical damage reduction to figure out what my damage metigation(because it depends on amount of damage I receive) for "specific amount of damage" and I need flat number for that, if this flat number is evasion now then I'm more then fine with that information.

[olive barn]

if i want to stack MF other than rings is it necessary to have it anywhere else?

[hardy sonnet]

best to have as much of it as possible

[stiff musk]

@narrow hearth i crashed

coming back

playing on a laptop

[olive barn]

around how much is good?

or noticable

[narrow hearth]

trade was so good you crashed

im having some lag with you

[drifting breach]

i just realised i rly have no fking idea how to do mapping well, anyone got any ideas on how to really do?

[stiff musk]

@narrow hearth but u know that my MF doesnt affect u

[narrow hearth]

no it will now with the gloves

[stiff musk]

only ur MF counts when u kill

[drifting breach]

winging doing maps on longer really working

[narrow hearth]

itll all be your MF

[stiff musk]

huh

[narrow hearth]

the gloves makes it that my kill become yours

[stiff musk]

wtf

[narrow hearth]

read em 😄

[hardy sonnet]

50+ should already be noticeable

[narrow hearth]

so only one of us goes full MF

[stiff musk]

i crashed b4 i could read

[olive barn]

wtf what gloves are those

[gilded wadi]

It is possible that with that ascendancy node there may be a multiplier on the evasion that they don't mention, just like how the exact equation (and its multipliers) from PDR from armor is not known (although some have come up with an approximation experimentally)

[olive barn]

good now i just need 120 divines

[hardy sonnet]

get it on multiple pieces instead

[olive barn]

im planning on getting it on the shield from trialmaster

with the soul core

[drowsy phoenix]

can anyone help me on 3rd trial, sea server, ign muninangka

[olive barn]

are u at the boss?

[drowsy phoenix]

no, i keep dying at third floor, tried like 10 times

[austere igloo]

If forget about possible existence of such multiplier: would it be correct to imagine flat evasion as flat armour in that case to count damage recived?

[gilded wadi]

I think so

[subtle roost]

i did the 3rd floor boss entirely afk earlier

[austere igloo]

Thanks.

[olive barn]

yeah i guess if you're already on the third floor ill join you. I cant make any promises tho cause my ping will be 200 probably.

[drowsy phoenix]

i can kill boss just the progress keeps killing me

[olive barn]

you use good relics for maximum honour % and resistance?

like 20-30% each relic

[zealous yarrow]

feelin kinda tanky now

[olive barn]

damn

those resistances

ngl i feel tanky too

[zealous yarrow]

stonks

[hardy sonnet]

yeah show your mana and your mom on passive

[zealous yarrow]

lol

[drowsy phoenix]

i only have 1 relic for honor resistance

[olive barn]

nothing crazy

[hardy sonnet]

yeah only sub 6k

[subtle roost]

max your honor resistance to 75 and then it's very easy

[olive barn]

if you get some decent ones it will make it so you barely take any honour dmg when you get hit

[drowsy phoenix]

where do i check my honor resistance

[subtle roost]

at the start

or add up your resist from your relics

[olive barn]

if you dont have any decent relics and have some exalts, you can buy a few cheap ones

or u can buy a carry as well there are people that are waiting at the boss selling carries for the 3rd ascendancy less than 10 ex

on the TFT discord tho

they just let u join and kill the boss for you

[drowsy phoenix]

and i will get the ascendency points?

[fleet steppe]

you say evasion but I think you mean armour right?

[olive barn]

yeah

[fleet steppe]

the armour value is given on your char sheet directly

[austere igloo]

It was about monk ascendency node. :)

[drowsy phoenix]

owh really? where to find that discord

[fleet steppe]

oh yeah

[olive barn]

i don't know if im allowed to send it here, so ill send it to you in private

[fleet steppe]

then yeah you use evasion in the armour formula

that produces its own damage reduction

and it's additive with armour damage reduction

[drowsy phoenix]

thanks man

[fleet steppe]

so unfortunately, not as good as gettting damage reduction from armour + evasion

[drifting breach]

how do people sustain maps? I legit cant

stat at t11 or even t10

with no rarity

[zealous yarrow]

try doing boss maps, i find they have higher drop chances of higher tier maps
