[idle stream]

is there a way to access your trial relics without going to the trial? kind of annoying you have to go get them at the trial and then go somewhere else if you want to reforge them

[bleak urchin]

hideout has a box for it

[trail dove]

I think he means the ones still in the alter, and if so, no

[terse badger]

I think they are talking about the ones installed in the alter

[unique hawk]

100% is arguably the ideal amount
As it has decreasing effect the first point is the best

[ancient condor]

lf 4th ascendent carry

[worldly iris]

Do we get soul cores from doing 4 trial ultimatums?

[novel crow]

hrm I pickedup a distilled despair and paranoia from a t14 del

they're pretty pricey

but still less than a div

wonder if I should replace my anointment on my amulet... probably should buy a new one first

[terse badger]

Question:
https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/lightning-arrow-deadeye#gearing-header
Im following this build but am kinda confused on the switching for bossing. How do I switch from bossing to mapping? Im confused on what I should be doing/changing for bossing.

[unique hawk]

Slowly combine them to make an isolation

[terse badger]

yeah I know chat is dead there 😦

[bleak urchin]

do you mean deactivating heralds for cast on shock or what?

[terse badger]

Kinda yeah which am I supposed to turn off / on and is it just cast on shock and nothing else?

[novel crow]

roger, all the best stuff has isolation

[unique hawk]

Right? I'm perpetually surprised about how many notables have an isolation mixed in

[bleak urchin]

yeah heralds doesn't work on single target ie. bosses so you don't need to have both heralds and cast on shock on at the same time

less spirit requirements

[terse badger]

So just turn off heralds and turn on cast on shock?

[novel crow]

well that's by design, the better the passive, the rarer the emotion

[bleak urchin]

also i guess that guide swaps grim feast to ghost dance aswell

[novel crow]

though leaping ambush might be good for me

[tall lantern]

i believe herald of ice is always on so worth keeping that turned on for the passive damage boost

[terse badger]

and then just fight like usual? or use cast on shock instead

[tall lantern]

im currently using hand of chayula instead of cos, but gonna sweitch it out to see

[unique hawk]

If you want to be truly optimal look at the prices of each emotion see where you can sell for the best price

[junior hornet]

don't forget the mana unique ring

[terse badger]

Yeah I dont have that one yet 😦

[exotic gazelle]

what do i need to purchase to have a working guild stash?

[terse badger]

A guild stash tab they are in the guild section of the store

im confused on how cast on shock works? is it a skill I cast???

[ivory forge]

Whenever u shock an enemy

It will add energy, once u get enough energy the cast on shock will cast the linked spellls

[novel crow]

yeah my budget is low, I have pressure points atm since I'm a freeze build

but +100% crit chance is worth a lot more to me

[terse badger]

So I dont auctually cast anything it just casts itself basically a passive

[ivory forge]

Well yea, ur normal skill will shock

And then cast on shock will do its thing

[terse badger]

cool

[ivory forge]

Yes it would

Same with adds X to Y phys damage to attacks (gloves, rings etc)

However on like jewels, or passive tree anything that says %increased global phys damage wouldn't apply, as you're now converted to lighting, so you deal only lightning damage

[steel wolf]

Does a waystone with "increased pack density" affect the density of packs in breaches

[exotic gazelle]

hi there literally what is killing me?

[plain raven]

GGGs vision

srsly though i have no idea you probably desynced

[exotic gazelle]

the exact same thing keeps happening to me with breach, this time i just figured i'd record and ask

[knotty apex]

Should I use my key every reward room in trial of sekhma or hoard them for later (better) reward room

[half chasm]

did a t15+ map and a notif popped up stating "unlocked map favoured slot" or something. what's that?

[pseudo barn]

If it alreaedy happend repeatedly then have you already checked your gear if you got some self harming effects on it?

[pseudo barn]

Not in the game yet

It's an artifact in the games code from poe that hasn't been properly removed or they intentionally left it so they could build upon it later.

[half chasm]

makes sense, just like how tainted oil is mentioned which is a blight league item when we're not using oils this it's emotions.

[unique hawk]

Corrupted simulacrum sounds fun tbh but it has to be a boss gauntlet

[final urchin]

are there bugged breach maps? i found and started breach, it closes and i discovered the whole area and killed every single mob, but can't finish map

[upbeat geyser]

is it just me or are level 19 gems surprisingly expensive?

especially spirit gems, why are they 10 ex?

[plain raven]

in the last room you get the most options

[pseudo barn]

Pls share a screenshot of the info when enlarging your map

Where it says your map lvl, server, how many mobs left etc

[final urchin]

the map is finished, i can go to maps behind this map through map device, just the popup of finished map didn't came up

[pseudo barn]

Regular 19 gems are one ex. Only the spirit ones are valuable at lvl19.

[pseudo barn]

You probably just didn't notice it then.

[final urchin]

never missed that one, but yea, also a possibility

[tall lantern]

howa doesn't exist, 15 xesht kills now and not a drop yet

[stable root]

Why are you staying outside the breach ring?

[upbeat geyser]

are spirit gems rarer or something?

[rugged siren]

Hey guys, not sure if it's the right channel to ask but I'm looking to pay for a carry for 3rd and 4th ascendancy ?

[pseudo barn]

Relatively rare yes

[stable root]

Enemies spawn invisible on the outside of the ring and become visible when they get inside the ring

[tall lantern]

no idea, but you shouldnt be running away from the breach ring lol

[pseudo barn]

The forbidden trove discord has a trial carry channel

[rugged siren]

oh thanks, Ill try there then

[ancient condor]

do you have to be in range of someone on a map to get xp or can you be afk at spawn?

[pseudo barn]

The former. Approximately two screens away is okay.

[ancient condor]

ok ty

[unique hawk]

What level? Are you making an excel with the drops?

[stable root]

People didn't read the description of breaches. They basically connect 2 different dimensions, so basically the breach area is a way to connect the 2 dimensions, so they have to make them spawn outside the ring and become visible when inside the ring

[tall lantern]

+3 and no, just keeping count lol

[upbeat geyser]

would you say it's better to farm them or just buy them first

[tall lantern]

according to other farm tests it should be about a 1/6 chance

[pseudo barn]

Doesn't matter

[solar mason]

anyone want to carry in trial of sekema

[pseudo barn]

#2┃looking-for-group

[fleet steppe]

Wut

[stable root]

The breach challenge, just like any other challenge, has a description. Breach says that you connect 2 dimenions with it, the dimensions is done with the ring which basically mix the 2 dimensions inside the area shown by the breach.
The monsters are not "spawning", but they are starting to appear inside the ring

[foggy acorn]

Anyone needs ascendency full points. I'm about to fight the boss

Nobody. I'll just kill it

[stable root]

So basically they wanted to keep it true lore-wise by making the mobs spawn outside the ring and become visible inside the ring

The issue is that they forgot that while we can't interact with them, they can

So basically if you don't know who killed you and you are doing breach and outside the ring, it is because the mob spawned and still invisible killed you

[fleet steppe]

Oh right

I misunderstood I thought you mean tis good to be outside

[stable root]

No, the opposite

[novel crow]

is there anywhere I can examine my freeze buildup bonus?

it doesn't appear to be anywhere

google fails to find anything

guess I can manually check all my sources grr

[fleet steppe]

Suspect it would be on the skill

[unique hawk]

I'm cheering for you

[steel wolf]

.

[foggy acorn]

Wtf. Crashed when i haven't opened so many keys. what a waste

[novel crow]

sadly not

looks like +395%

and 590 on fireball and frost wall

[ebon fractal]

Any tips on improving survival with ranger? I'm running a lighting rod build and can deal insane damage but I'm basically 1 hit for anything

[low token]

Post character sheet

[ebon fractal]

Character sheet? Sorry I'm new to this what's that?

[quaint fossil]

guys, i need help.. why cant i equip this

[low token]

Press c and screenshot the big stat screen

[ebon fractal]

Kk 1 sec

[low token]

Do u have the giants blood passive node?

[quaint fossil]

yes

even if i remove shield i still cant

[low token]

Well there you go boss

[quaint fossil]

TRIPLE ATTRIBUE

OH

[quaint fossil]

ig solution is just to read

[idle stream]

why would you want to do a map with corrupted? is there any benifit or is it pretty much only a negative?

[pseudo barn]

+1 mob lvl

[idle stream]

ik, why would you want that

[low token]

You wanna pump up that life brother, and idk if you are running the acrobatics passive but you would want higher evasion too

[pseudo barn]

Higher mob lvl = generally better

[ebon fractal]

ya im using acrobatics

[idle stream]

why

[low token]

Then 65 evasion is a good aim, but definitely double your life

[pseudo barn]

Better loot, more exp, and maybe even more benefits I'm not aware of.

[low token]

Wait before all that...

Your resists aren't 75

That's number 1 priority, you are a twig in a hydrolic press currently

[ebon fractal]

ah damn, I guess im look at like all new gear :/

[low token]

Been there

[unique hawk]

How much money do you have?

[ebon fractal]

Like coins? Or exalted?

[unique hawk]

Exalted/divines

[ebon fractal]

36 exalted, havent seen a divine yet

[unique hawk]

Doable you could trade for at least cap element resistances
Are there any particularly good pieces in your equipment

[tall lantern]

not played a build that uses focus yet, this seems like a pretty strong roll ye?

[ebon fractal]

this is what im wearing, not really sure if its any good

oh ya, and blet

I like the boots and helmet alot lol

[unique hawk]

You are lighting rod what's up with the helmet?

[ebon fractal]

I was thinking the ignite could add some extra dps, but maybe not?

[unique hawk]

I dunno is a 100 DPS significant? How many lighting arrows is 100 ignite?

[ebon fractal]

ya thats a good point, that about 1/20 lightning arrows 😐 lmao

[bleak urchin]

looks nice when they're on fire

[ebon fractal]

it really does

so pretty

[supple badge]

hi guys im trying to do lvl82 map and I dont want to mess it up... can anyone help? singapore server

[fleet steppe]

So they drop items with higher ilvl? And more xp

[fleet steppe]

It's 20 dps

[fleet steppe]

Is 20 dps significant?

[unique hawk]

Bin the rings, and the uniques and do some shopping limit price to 5 exalts in the first searches
You'll need the tutorial on item search in #1308715317375270952

[fleet steppe]

Why would you want to run t13 instead of t12

[ebon fractal]

Ok 🙂 thanks for the help

[bleak urchin]

@ebon fractal ANYWAY you need 460 resistances between 8 items so thats 57.5 res per piece

[mint pivot]

460?

[bleak urchin]

40+75*4?

oh ah 3

[unique hawk]

460 but doesn't include chaos in the search

[bleak urchin]

43! let's go with that

[mint pivot]

Chaos also doesn't get the per act penalty

[bleak urchin]

ANYWAY 43, so for boots you would do something like this

then just go trough every piece

[unique hawk]

I think it's optiomal to adjust the weight up till there are only 100 offers left

[bleak urchin]

@ebon fractal like those are pretty okay boots

[silver solar]

hahahahahahah the delirium boss is so stupid

[faint tide]

Is it worth trading a divine orb for 100+ ex orbs for trades once i reach endgame?

[glass blade]

Are you building something with this currency? If so, yes

Guys, I can't figure out where I missed 2 Passive Points in my campaign. I tried to redo some of the quests and looked at all "skulls", but can't find where I might have skipped

[cobalt plover]

Yo what do I do now I’m back at act 1

[calm grotto]

clear it again

it's at a higher level

then u will reach endgame

[tall lantern]

you'll have to google the list of passive points sources and do them one I guess.. the skulls sometimes dont grey out even if you have done them but start with any that aren't greyed out

[glass blade]

Doint this right now, maybe its a bug

[main oasis]

For double herald monk staves should I just be looking at damage & crit? should I also be looking for %elemental or is that factored into damage? Assuming attack speed is deprioritized

[tall lantern]

attack speed is deffos wanted for bossing mostly. max phys will be good

im running this which isn't even the most ideal vibe and its slaying

actually insane trying to sustain t16 maps, just juiced and vaaled all of those and have a single t16 to show for it

[queen badger]

what does this mean?

[tall lantern]

if an item requires 100 dex then that core will change the requirement to 80 dex, 20 strength

[queen badger]

and should I go one more 5 percent res, 5 percent chaos, or 2 percent health for last socket?

[queen badger]

and it only applies to that item?

[tall lantern]

afaik

[ebon fractal]

wow, big differences after getting new gear

[idle stream]

do maps that have breaches only have 1?

[ivory forge]

Yea unless u have atlas points/tablets giving u chance for extras

[runic wolf]

Can you still add rune on a corrupted item with slot?

[idle stream]

no

[ivory forge]

Empty slot? Yes

[idle stream]

really? thought you couldnt modify it at all

[runic wolf]

Yes. Empty slot

[ivory forge]

Well one corruption outcome is to add an extra slot so 😛

[narrow marsh]

is there a way for me to quickly identifies all the loot on the ground? or do i have to bring a stack of wisdom scroll everytime i go out mapping

[pliant trench]

What does the skill tree max out at?

Or is it continuous?

[ivory forge]

123 points

Level 100

[gritty shard]

Hey i just lost some passive points after respeccing. Can't use my specter and boots now. For reference my weapon set skill points are 24 each. Don't know what happened but when i was done respeccing I lost like 20 intelligence and strength despite not respeccing those nodes

Anyone know a fix or some advice please

[novel crow]

Finally fixed my mana management with enough regen and 31% reduced mana costs

now I can run level 28 skills

[trail dove]

it will be a str/int/dex requirement you are missing (probably), you will need to switch some of the passive skill 'linking nodes' as required

[novel crow]

still have some more levels to build on as well

[pseudo barn]

The latter

[novel crow]

mom did not work for my build

[gritty shard]

Yeah i don't think it's that. I was able to equip my boots and specter before respeccing. I respecced some nodes(not nodes for upgrading strength/intelligence) and then suddenly lost points

[queen badger]

what am I missing guys

burial bog

[solemn canyon]

some tree points on weapon set? notables that included attributes?

[narrow marsh]

but the map says completed tho. what are you looking for

[queen badger]

I'm bugging

my bad

didn't see that

[knotty apex]

Cap on honor resistance is 75%?

[haughty snow]

That's what I've heard. Couldn't find the stat or cap in the interface though

[gritty shard]

What do you mean by notables? Could you explain

[haughty snow]

Big circles. Some of them are like +15% blah blah blah +10 int

[solemn canyon]

some notable passive skills have +attributes on one line that are pretty easy to forget about when respeccing if you're not conscious of it

[gritty shard]

Would passives that leach life result in lower strength since it affects life?

Or am i mistaken

[pale basin]

if i defer an audience with the king, can i have it spawn in tier 1 maps on a ritual or do you need to be in a tier 12+ for it to appear?

[chrome isle]

do i use high tier maps or nah

[runic wolf]

Is Orb of Alchemy only drop from a monster? Or there is an item that I can sell which can produce shards?

[plain raven]

1k waystone quant

[haughty snow]

Monster only, but currency exchange should have some.

[junior hornet]

Exposure (says -30%) would stack with Curse (-40%) and gives -70% resistance total?

[idle stream]

when does doryani refresh and get more waystones to sell?

[plain raven]

afaik when you complete one of his quests he refreshes 100%

idk if theres another trigger

[idle stream]

thats crazy. the next quest I have is to go to all the citidels.. which need t15 waystones.. and im doing t3-t4 right now.. so how am I supposed to get more waystones

[lavish nacelle]

hi if I use a wand with +1 spell, does it affect all spell gems or just the one on the wand?

[ivory forge]

All

[torn plank]

what does the community think is a reasonable ping to have for high tier mapping?

or gameplay in general

2-3 days ago my ping rose to 110-120 from smooth gameplay and now I suffer

[plain raven]

what is your atlas tree, you should be dropping tons of them

[idle stream]

i just said im doing t3 right now.. i have only got 3 atlas skill points at this point

[pale basin]

can you only get audience with the king in t15 maps?

[plain raven]

no, i got one in like t6

[quiet umbra]

Is it best to orb of alchemy blank white maps, as opposed to using other upgrade methods (orbs, regals), etc

[plain raven]

well dont worry about citadels for now just grind up to t15s, I dont have any low tier maps but you can buy a bunch in bulk on tft

[plain raven]

also he sells infinite T1s, so you can just grind up

[narrow marsh]

the second method is slightly cheaper

[plain raven]

get these nodes 1st you will be sustaining ez

[upper warren]

How are people pushing waystone quant up

[sharp compass]

do any of u know why for example i have a ring that gives me 30% fire resistance but when i press C it shows me that i have 2%...

[velvet lynx]

anyone interested in selling a 4th ascendancy trial carry?

[hasty cobalt]

You lose resistances as you progress through the acts

This is to keep it balanced at early and late game

[north crown]

Hello, i have a question. If you get teh ascendancy quest with your new character, and u finish a last asc level trial. do you get all your 8 points right away

[sharp compass]

so i need more

life in boots and armour

[hasty cobalt]

Yes. You want at least 75% on all resistances

Besides maybe chaos as that's harder to get a hold of

But you still want it

[sharp compass]

yea i didnt see any chaos resistances yet

but ty for help

[idle stream]

I have 3 whole points and you point out 8 different nodes to "get first" lol

[hasty cobalt]

You don't need to do the citadel quests yet. Just progress the x/10 ones you'll get more points

[solemn canyon]

from what I hear, yes

[north crown]

thank u

[dusky star]

so pick 3 of the 8 and take them? it's not hard to sustain early

in fact, it's not hard ever

use boss maps, roll your waystones

[hasty cobalt]

Most vendors are on level up. I'm not sure about Doryani, it might refresh you fully buy him out

[dusky star]

you can't fully buy out doryani, he sells infinite t1s?

[queen badger]

is this for one node or a whole trial/floor

[junior hornet]

for the rest of the floor

[queen badger]

for sekhemas

[viral blaze]

finally resistance :D!

[queen badger]

if I get it after boss, does it count for next floor

[hasty cobalt]

Ah right that's what I meant then. I knew I heard someone say it was infinite

[viral blaze]

need to get 40 inteligence now D.

[hasty cobalt]

I assumed it auto refreshed rather than just literally infinite

[viral blaze]

D:

[dusky star]

what did you pick on the second vial quest? not 10% chaos res, I guess

[dim turtle]

i used a tablet with "% increased chance to drop breach splinters" but the mods dont show up on the map? is it a visual bug or did it no apply somehow?

[junior hornet]

no if you hit V you will see that you are still in the last room of the floor

[viral blaze]

hmm what act?

[hasty cobalt]

Nice

[dusky star]

that's a6

[queen badger]

wait bro are you doing a free sekhema carry?

[junior hornet]

I do, yes. Doing, no

[hasty cobalt]

Act 3 cruel, venom crypt

[viral blaze]

probably picked something else lol

[queen badger]

Oh yeah np, thanks for the info anyways

[viral blaze]

wait this says i didnt do it yet right?

was rushing cruel to get to maps haha

[dusky star]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/getting-started/permanent-stats-from-campaign

[hasty cobalt]

The icon will be on the town I think?

It's not on the underground bit anyway. Because you get the reward in town not in the crypt

[junior hornet]

btw if you need 3rd ascend I have one ready, just don't have time for 4th rn

[viral blaze]

ah rip

[queen badger]

Yeah me and my friends doing the third

[hasty cobalt]

It's the icon of some vials/bottles

[junior hornet]

your ign?

[dusky star]

you shouldn't rush cruel so fast that you skip valuable permanent bonuses

[queen badger]

brutalitytaco

can we invite you

[junior hornet]

no you will join me

[viral blaze]

got it ❤️

will do

[queen badger]

cause we're already in an instance

can they join too?

[hasty cobalt]

That's the one

[queen badger]

can they join too

[junior hornet]

yeah, leave it and join mine

[dim turtle]

i used a tablet with "% increased chance to drop breach splinters" but the mods dont show up on the map? is it a visual bug or did it no apply somehow?

[queen badger]

alr thanks

[urban gazelle]

anyone having lag problem?\

[half glade]

I just wondering about the "Item Found Rarity" like what is the sweet spot for stats needed ?

[junior hornet]

100-150 that's what I heard

[plain raven]

its was just a 650% base waystone buffed with atlas, no towers

[lilac linden]

Is there a way to farm up Greater Jeweller's Orbs? Trying to get one but I haven't been able to yet. Still early in maps, only at about 6 right now.

[small umbra]

can someone suggest me a good atlas setup for map running sustainability? (tier 15)

[upper warren]

Nope just a random drop

[lilac linden]

Brutal. Are they pretty rare?

[tranquil forge]

yes thats why they are so expensive, you can try target farm it by using the top left keystone ont eh atlas tree, btu that will still take forever

[runic wolf]

What will happen if you failed a citadel? Will it generate a new one?

[tranquil forge]

defacto: just dont play with 5 support gems (or even 4) on almost all skills

[tranquil forge]

hahhaahahahahhaa
no

you will need to find a new one

[viral blaze]

idk if quest is bugged but i cant get it..

[frank lantern]

I feel like it's easier to farm currency overall and buy it, when you do, it's actually a very good deal

[tranquil forge]

i disagree. the 5th support slot will only be minor damage increase lol

but i guess that may depend on the skill

[hasty cobalt]

It won't generate a new one, but there are an infinite amount of them on your atlas. You just need to find another

[frank lantern]

It's around 20% more damage for a main skill

To be conservative

[dim turtle]

i used a tablet with "% increased chance to drop breach splinters" but the mods dont show up on the map? is it a visual bug or did it no apply somehow?

[half glade]

I see

Thanks !

[viral blaze]

omg i hate myself

[frank lantern]

Probably the biggest dps boost you can get for like 30ex atm?

[half glade]

did you vaal the ingenuity

[viral blaze]

nope just lost vs easy boss for map boss points

[half glade]

oh rip

[viral blaze]

gota find corruption with boss bs again now...

[half glade]

I always find Iron citidel on my map

[tranquil forge]

yeah that was super annoying lol
but these appear more often then you think

[high tide]

is 1 exalt broke in act 3 cruel? ive been trying to craft with them and havent made anything lol

[viral blaze]

hope soo 🙂

[tranquil forge]

complains that he finds citadels
cant be me

[half glade]

must be the Corrupted wolf like me

[dull plank]

What?

[high tide]

i only have 1 exalt and im in act 3 cruel ive been using them so im just wondering if i shouldve saved them or what

[tranquil forge]

do not craft using exalts

its 99% of the time better too use it too trade with another player a great item

[high tide]

gotcha

[tranquil forge]

a small design failure because of the free market

use regals and alchemy orbs though for crafting!!!

[high tide]

well after i use regals what if i need more modifiers?

[tranquil forge]

well you dont throw exalts at it and jsut keep it at 3

[high tide]

gotcha

[tranquil forge]

for campaing good enough

[high tide]

yeah crafting and trading seems really confusing in this game

[tranquil forge]

like once you have more exalts like 40+ i would start considering exalting very good items

and once you have 300+ you can use them on good items too hope too hit jackpot

but at the beginning use your few exalts too upgrade your gear trough trading:

buy the best piece of each gear for 1 ex you can get

[high tide]

gotcha

[viral blaze]

dang its tuff to get lvls

[tranquil forge]

what level are you?

[viral blaze]

85

need 90 D:

[tranquil forge]

its all about not dying and fast clearing

89 is very doable once your each t15
90 is a bit of a farm

[whole marsh]

any poe veteran here that would be willing to jump into a call with me and help me fix my build? need some ele res and iir but i dont know how to do so on a tight budged/ little item slots that are flexible. would higly appriciate it

[tranquil forge]

cant come into a call
but in general the trick is buying 1 ex items
and aiming for the highest res and life you can get using some tricks on the trade website

try the sum function and sort by value

and use Max 1 exalt price too only see items that are maximum price of 1 exalt

[quiet umbra]

So I just did a little playing around. in the currency exchange, you can get 2 alchemy orbs for 1 exalt. so I just converted a bunch of exalts to alchemy orbs at 2:1 for my maps 😄

[rustic tusk]

can a nameless seeker have a uniq what is only a boss drop?

[tranquil forge]

alch orb = 4 mods
regal 3 mods
so alch rob better

[whole marsh]

im lvl 91 clearing t15+ maps but i cant beat the breach boss for example since i just get one shot if i make a single mistake, already have quite a few divine invested in my build (howa/ ingenuite etc) but im kinda lost on how to improve further without spending like 200 div (which i dont have)

[upper warren]

Which tier of breach boss

[tranquil forge]

ah yeah same problem here
cant help with that
i jsut ignore all pinaccle bosses and do map clears

[quiet umbra]

Yeah that is what I am thinking as well, especially since you can get 2 alchemy for 1 ex

[whole marsh]

max difficulty

[tiny mirage]

what goes in this bottom slot?

[tranquil forge]

wtf

[upper warren]

That's a good question since it's my first time seeing that

[viral blaze]

yeh already reached t15 but farming little lower now

[whole marsh]

i cant take a single hit without dying

[tranquil forge]

ohh wait is it a magic offering?

[tranquil forge]

ahhhhhh not capped res

[whole marsh]

ye, but i only have a single ring slot open that i can put on more res since all the other slots are unqiues which i dont think i can unequip right now

[half glade]

Mine is high int

[tranquil forge]

i dont know your build or if that is expected
but Res is TOP PRIORITY normally

[tiny mirage]

not sure what magic offering is, but i used a regal inscribed ultamatum to make that bottom slot appear

[lavish yoke]

Can Conductivity Curse chain? Thinking if these nodes are useless (so I could use them for curse weapon set):

[upper warren]

Definitely need capped res, you're taking double the lightning and fire damage anyone else would be
How necessary is the unique ring since I feel like those don't do much

[tiny mirage]

oh i put the regal orbs in therei guess

[half glade]

40 all resist is fine to run but negative is bad

[tranquil forge]

yes read the top mod^^

[tiny mirage]

ya that was my solution to make question

[upper warren]

No it isn't if you're doing more than white maps

[whole marsh]

this allows me to insta clear my whole screen in breaches right now, so not equiping feels realy bad

[upper warren]

That's strange, what's your average hit for lightning wave

[tranquil forge]

oh yeah polci is dope
what does the unique belt do?

[solemn canyon]

no

[lavish yoke]

thanks

[upper warren]

Makes rings have higher stats

[solemn canyon]

unless otherwise specified, generally only projectiles that hit enemies can chain

[tranquil forge]

ok so belt is giving ton of res

[upper warren]

That's where most of his res comes from yeah

[tranquil forge]

wait is doublijng polci worth it?

[plain raven]

Does anyone know if there is a way to regex for waystone quant?

[lavish yoke]

Do you know any reason why I don't see my conductivity on the ground? Since I gave points into curses (utilizing weapon sets for the first time), it is invisible

[upper warren]

Not really, no

[lavish yoke]

I got A LOT of area increased so maybe thats connected?

[rustic tusk]

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Standard/EDQeZX0H5

are people crasy not even a week ago it was on 70div .. why people are that greedy

[upper warren]

Ah, you're not using lightning wave for clear so you're doing both clear and single target with ice strike, that makes it harder

[solemn canyon]

not on pc to check, is this temporalis?

[upper warren]

It's astramentis

[upper warren]

Supply and demand ™️

[solemn canyon]

prob just build popularity then

yeah

[whole marsh]

i mean i melt map bosses in like 2 second, but +4 difficulty breach etc bosses are a bit different xd

[upper warren]

Yeah not having a res capped or having a primary defence makes it harder

[whole marsh]

for polci its not, but my other two rings it is, i put on the 2nd breach ring when im doing bosses

[whole marsh]

i was thinking about getting the jewels that increase max hp by 2% for each one, so 18% more hp total, but they are like 10 div each so i cant afford that with my 2 divine xd and farming more div takes so long since i only have like 30 iir on my setup with all those uniques

[upper warren]

What about the amulet

[tranquil forge]

so against bosses you have capped res?

[upper warren]

Hmm, that seems upgradable

[whole marsh]

xd no, this is my res if i have my dps rings for bosses

[upper warren]

I think you're just gonna have to drop int on that for a res

[whole marsh]

but that will be an immense dps loss since im running howa for good boss dps with ice strike, and the amulet already has 15 all res no?

[upper warren]

You can get another res

[visual maple]

Or get ingenuity

[whole marsh]

already have ingenuity

[tranquil forge]

i say hand stays lol dope item

[visual maple]

Better rings? Pretty sure you can cap out Res with 2 rings and 1 armour item

[rustic tusk]

no

[whole marsh]

and i tried to find rings likethe one im using now but if i want onhit +attribute + all res they are like 20div upwards and i have 2 divine from the past two days of grinding xd

[upper warren]

You'll be losing a 1/10th of the flat damage from the gloves to take half the fire or lightning damage

Idk seems worth it

[dim turtle]

i used a tablet with "% increased chance to drop breach splinters" but the mods dont show up on the map? is it a visual bug or did it no apply somehow?

[visual maple]

Drop 1 dmg flat from it

[upper warren]

You can't replace flat damage with a res

[visual maple]

Have 2 dmg mods and 2 Res mods

For start

[upper warren]

There's no prefix res mods

[visual maple]

Drop a bit of dmg

Ye but value of item drops

So it's not 20div but 2

[whole marsh]

there are currently two listings on trade for breach rings with affixes i want, and both have super low attributes and attack :/

[wraith silo]

How much is a perfect jewellers orb now?

[visual maple]

Drop str or all att

[upper warren]

Definitely strength

[whole marsh]

but those attributes are what scales my dmg currently, the less attributes i have the less dmg i have since im using would it realy be worth to drop that?

[upper warren]

Yes it would be

You can't do damage if you're dead lol

[whole marsh]

sory for all those questions, im new to poe just started with ea releae

[upper warren]

You lose 10% of flat damage from gloves if you drop int on your ammy and replace it with a res

[plain raven]

In case anyone needs a regex to filter for high quant waystones for citadels, here's what I came up with (couldnt find anything on google):

WS above 400% quant: ([4-9]\d{2,}|[1-9]\d{3,})%
WS above 500% quant: ([5-9]\d{2,}|[1-9]\d{3,})%
WS above 600% quant: ([6-9]\d{2,}|[1-9]\d{3,})%

[upper warren]

And you lose like 7% of strength from dropping strength on that ring and get a res

[visual maple]

This

[whole marsh]

well that is true, but im not realy dying in maps. its more so that im dying to a +4 difficulty breach boss and it didnt seem to be ele dmg that xesht does or am i wrong here? like his hand that falls down? i guess that is phys dmg and it just straight up one hits me

[rocky halo]

can someone explain spell cascade and spell echo please? For comet, echo would fire a second, what would cascade do?

[visual maple]

Poe2regex site still not out?

[lavish yoke]

Do you know any reason why I don't see my conductivity on the ground?
That happend when I utulized weapon sets for curses on my passive tree. It is now invisible...

[plain raven]

there is but it only works for ws tiers (lol)

[shell pelican]

Are there any end game loot filters that someone can suggest me?

[visual maple]

Ws?

[plain raven]

waystone tiers

[lavish yoke]

Neversink + optimize it a bit for yourself (I am for example hiding most of gems and magic items)

[plain raven]

it doesnt let you filter quant, mods or anything like that

https://poe2.re/waystone

[visual maple]

Lol

Only tiers not affixes

[plain raven]

I assume they will come in an update but for now manual labour is needed

[whole marsh]

deleted strenght from my search, but damn, those attack mods are low and how tf is anyone supposed to afford that? i got 2 div in the past two days of playing several hrs each day 😦

[visual maple]

Well you could try using normal regex

[plain raven]

I am using fubguns and I am much happier than with neversink, which imo is not strict enough for breach: https://github.com/PoEDave/FubgunFilters/tree/main

[visual maple]

Id try chatGPT to list me all possible waystone affixes then find unique regex for each

[upper warren]

Can't wait for it to just make up affixes

[shell pelican]

which one did you take?

[plain raven]

very strict, the uber strict is only needed if you run annointed deli breach with like 200% quant

which is kinda insane

[glass blade]

Guys, best Precursor Tablet for Citadel?

[solemn canyon]

how did you make enough for howa and ingenuity

[twilit maple]

Is the trial of the sekhemas area not discoverable in cruel?

[whole marsh]

i did a annointed deli breach yesterday with 50 quantity using neversinks filter, hit the 3extra breaches and spend more time looting that map looking at all the useless items then acutally clearing it

[twilit maple]

I ran the map to find it twice and it wasn't there

[whole marsh]

well 10 ingame days playtime since release xd

[plain raven]

yea I suggest fubgun very strict

give it a go

[whole marsh]

i also only payed 3div for howa and 11 div for ingenuity, early in the morning prices are usually way lower- or before poeple think a patch might be coming xd

[plain raven]

the only thing I modified is I have hidden ws lower than 14

[glass blade]

Go back to the Act 2

[twilit maple]

thank you

[visual maple]

Think after next version lol unless it can access web

[tall lantern]

actually insane... i've been on this map for an hour. 10 breaches, a boss, rituals.. every screen looks like this rn

[glass blade]

Just more waystone drop?

[raw cosmos]

Oh hey. You got an uncut skill gem

[tranquil forge]

you need astricter lootfilter:D

[glass blade]

Where are the Divines lol

[tall lantern]

please tell me where

100% on items and the more on the map, t17

not a single divine but 60 exalts

[uncut abyss]

is anyone able to join a vc and help me find some better gear than what i have on the trade website?

[tranquil forge]

also not a fan of the controller UI

[tall lantern]

i really do, using neversinks

[tranquil forge]

divine drops are nice but money maker are the different things

[tranquil forge]

its only a lite filter i recommend a stricter one

that you would only use for maps like this maybe lol

[tall lantern]

its a pain as you cant press z with controller so have to manually reset the highlights

[tranquil forge]

rip

[tall lantern]

do you have one in mind?

[tranquil forge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DN1y5Jig5Wc
have been using this for a day WAY stricter

neversinks stricter lootiflter should come out this week probably though

[tall lantern]

much appreciated

[tranquil forge]

neversink is sucha benefit too this game

[calm grotto]

i cannot reforge this relics?

[tranquil forge]

i would argue his lootfilter lead too massive player retention andmillions in profit for ggg

[tranquil forge]

its a bug ggg knows

[trail dove]

some Really helpful Greater Jewellers price fixing going on at the moment...

[calm grotto]

ah

[tranquil forge]

a very silly bug

[tall lantern]

are you using the trade site to buy greaters?

[trail dove]

not at the moment, but I kind of need a couple, so will be tempted, yes

[tall lantern]

dont use trade site for currency stuff man, theres literally currency exchange in the game

greaters should be about 30 ex on exchange

[tranquil forge]

oh yeah trade site is a big scam for currency

[trail dove]

the one through Alva?

[tranquil forge]

exchange cant be scammed

[tall lantern]

asking to get scammed by trading for currency exchange items

[calm grotto]

put 1 div for 1 exa

[trail dove]

I'll give it a go, ty

[upper warren]

And the game will give you a pop up saying "this is stupid, do you wish to proceed"

[tranquil forge]

thats ggg trying too trick you
you are playing the market

[tall lantern]

still dunno how okes are getting all these divines in a breach, that map couldn't have been more perfect for 10 breaches on one map and not a single div drop

max breach points too

[viral blaze]

fr fr

[glass blade]

How much would sell this one guys?

[upper warren]

We don't do price checks

[glass blade]

Where do I get help with this?

[upper warren]

#price-check📉

[glass blade]

Ty

I can't find anything similar so just try and error for now

[toxic timber]

Damn found two Iron citadels yesterday still can't find that copper one lol. That's three iron and two stone I've found so far level almost level 88

[glass blade]

I'm 92 and found only one

[toxic timber]

@glass blade It took forever to find my first. Past two days I've found three.

[upper warren]

Doies Gas Arrow care for armour

[dim turtle]

why cant i fkn apply skill points in my tree

[still bay]

I just had an instance crashed on me and when I logged back in all the loots are gone, it had perfect jeweller dropped. wth

[runic wolf]

If I "Increase Freeze Build up" and "Increase Chance to inflict ailment". This will both increase my chance to freeze monster, right?

[pseudo barn]

Can you share a screenshot that shows your available points? Or provide any other context. It's hard to tell with the info you gave.

[dim turtle]

it was just a stupid bug

not it works

[vast turtle]

whats the best cidadel?

[vast turtle]

i found 2 and im still doing t10 map quest

[viral blaze]

check how much are fragments 😄

[rich patrol]

Are wandering traders always on the coast?

[vast turtle]

ye that doesnt tell me what citadel they drop from

[tiny mirage]

copper citadel is the money

[viral blaze]

yeh it does each citadel drops 1 kind of fragment o=

[trail dove]

what is the current equivalent of /passives so I can check if I missed anything through the story?

[toxic timber]

Found multiple iron and stone citadels no copper so assume that's the rarest lol

[dense schooner]

#price-check📉

[smoky oyster]

1ex

[river violet]

See if you have 24 weapon set points and make sure all the + icons are greyed out on the map (minus the bugged ones like bog witch)

[shell pelican]

Is it possible to filter items on trade with that have max 1 mod?

[river violet]

There should be a setting for number of affixes

[shell pelican]

cant find it anywhere

[bleak urchin]

i think best you can do is to search for magic

[glass blade]

Sold

[tranquil forge]

not sure if the new poe 2 trade has that option yet
old one has that for sure

[strong vigil]

anybody know how/if area level affects which soul cores drop

[charred island]

Can someone help with the maths behind this - why when i equip mahuxotls shield with 575% es and 618% soul cores am I losing nearly a thousand mana and a thousand energy shield

[tranquil forge]

are you unequipping another shield?
we are missing context here

[manic fox]

Am I the only one ending each Vaal Factory Map with 50+ monsters left even exploring whole map? Tried it 5+ times

[charred island]

Yes I’m unequipping a focus

[manic matrix]

hey guys, i`m already mapping with speed in mind, but im still poor, so every exalted counts.
Is there any list of uniques that is actually worth more than 1 exalted out there?
Checking if my loot is worth something takes so much time, i could easily do another map during xD
Need to set my filters better

[tranquil forge]

doe shtat shield have mana /es?

[glass blade]

Happened to me too

[tall lantern]

does anyone want an oaksworn shield, im gonna shard it otherwise. free of course

[charred island]

This is what I’m swapping but the maths just isn’t adding up for me

[crystal wyvern]

are cosmetics like wings only wearable by one character?

[tranquil forge]

well you are losing 172 es
and you are losing 4% increased maximum mana

you have lots of ES% increases in your skilltree that multiplies your ES from gear

[charred island]

Yes you’re right I’m using EB and MOM but the percentage increase is so big I’m not sure how it isn’t increasing those stats

[tranquil forge]

ahhhhhh

the % on the shield ONLY increases the ES the shield gives

not your total ES

%ES on amulet increases your TOTAL ES

[charred island]

Okaaaay. Ty. I’m using Gaze amulet at the moment obviously but really want to get away from it

Oh well I’ll sell the shield

[turbid kernel]

Only one character at a time but you can freely swap it between characters

[tranquil forge]

618 is quite a good roll
oh with the other roll 4 div

[charred island]

How so? On the trade site it’s saying about 23+ div

[tranquil forge]

ohh 3 runes didnt saw that

[turbid kernel]

Are you looking at ones with 3 sockets?

[tranquil forge]

btw the big gains from the shield come from the soul cores that you socket in

[charred island]

Yeah I was going to put 2% mana in all 3

But even then it doesn’t feel like a good trade off for my focus

[turbid kernel]

Well, if course it's making your man's go down without them

[limber oasis]

is there a way to trade for breach tablets? everyone is listing them for a divine

[tranquil forge]

it amy be worth even more because your sockets are empty

[turbid kernel]

With the soul cores it'll probably give a lot more mana but a bit less ES than focus. Not sure how the DPS will shake out

[trail dove]

you can still add to the sockets when its corrupted?

[tranquil forge]

nope but you can fill them

[charred island]

Exactly. Don’t think it’s worth the risk of filling the sockets. Think I’m just going to sell tin

It*

[turbid kernel]

Are you setting trade site to only show ones listed in exalts? Trade site is weird right now

[limber oasis]

oo

no

lemme try that

[trail dove]

yeah, thats what I meant, you can slot something in, just not add sockets

[limber oasis]

thanks

oh my theyre 10ex each for inc quant…

[trail dove]

interesting, ty

[charred island]

I really want to make my dps stronger but I just can’t see where I can

[tranquil forge]

like 1 of the corrupts is adding a rune socket

owuld be quite pointless if you cant put anything in because its corrupted

[river violet]

Is there a search parameter for "empty affix"? If so, put that to 5 for rares or 1 for magics.

[tranquil forge]

there isnt yet

lots of stuff missing on the poe2 version

[river violet]

Are your gems qualitied?
Do you have the most sockets you can afford on your main skills?
Are your skills leveled as much as you can?
Do you have quality on your weapon (if using a martial weapon)?
Are you using a weapon swap?
Are you using all 9 (or more) of your gem slots?

[tranquil forge]

also:
check your skill tree for more efficent skill point use
amulet/rings/helmetglobes can also add damage (flat/% damage/ +level too skill gems)

also weapon upgrade lol

[river violet]

Yeah, vaaling your weapon is very low on the priority list for boosting dps

[tranquil forge]

what didnt say that

like buying gear upgrades

[river violet]

Nah, they were talking about vaaling their stuff earlier

[floral pendant]

Hey people say above 100% Item rarity solo is a waste. this true? i got 220 item rarity and i can do t15 maps with delirium

[tranquil forge]

people are doing statistical experiments right now

and it looks like rarity above 150% doesnt really do much

[viral blaze]

where is block list? accidently blocked someone

[river violet]

We don't know the rarity formula. Anyone who says they know the breakpoints or when it's "worth" are trying to sell you something imo

[tranquil forge]

stay at 220% but i wouldnt invest into more rarity

[river violet]

Oh

[tranquil forge]

like the experiment sample data is NOT big enough too be conclusive

[river violet]

I'm also curious how these data are being collected

[tranquil forge]

well guy runs 50 maps each at 0 rarity 100 200 300 and 400

this was one of the big posts: https://www.reddit.com/r/PathOfExile2/comments/1hq957a/i_tested_increased_rarity_for_80_t15_maps_and/

[manic fox]

Is there an easy way to identify towers without tablets? I need to click on each to find out...

[vast turtle]

guys why do people want this so bad

[tranquil forge]

also that graph from the same guy

[ancient condor]

anyone have any extra low lvl spirit gems? mine are way too high and I dont have the int for it

[tranquil forge]

big roll for big damage from quiver

[vast turtle]

yeah but do i vaal orb it for profit or

should i just sell it

[tranquil forge]

well that really depends on what kind of person you are

and what the immediate guaranteed currency would do too your build

Vs the potential loss of that but the chanc eof more currency

and how risk averse your peronality is

[vast turtle]

the thing is i dont know the chance of getting a good roll from the vaal orb

and i dont use the item i just dropped it

[tranquil forge]

also if you gamble for the 20% increased roll
you DO NOT do that on high roll uniques.

because if it changes the numeric values it will ALWAYS divine the item first

so you do that on low rolls

[vast turtle]

so i shouldnt gamble on it

[tranquil forge]

if you vaal it you want the explicit or the extra rune socket

[tranquil forge]

25% extra rune socket
25% explciit
25% nothing
25% divines it and then increases it by 20% or lowers by 20% (can go beyond the normal range of the value)

[vast turtle]

what would you do

[tranquil forge]

[vast turtle]

i mean im not super poor ive got a couple divs

[tranquil forge]

thinking like that will only lead too regrets
i say take the guaranteed money

[vast turtle]

true

[tranquil forge]

there is no wrong answer here

[plain raven]

Do these nodes buff the Xesht breachstone?

i mean besides the boss difficulty

[velvet flint]

Do the artifacts sellers refresh the items by themselves or it only when we use Exotic Coinage ?

[viral blaze]

why tf cant i open portal to this area?

[swift vale]

i'm ngl mapping after the campaign feels awful to me. it goes 0-100 in how punishing it is and you basically have to just grind maps and hope you get gear upgrades to fix your resistances / defenses to be able to map properly.

[viral blaze]

nvm need certain lvl of waystone

[swift vale]

and the drops are so few and far between for actual gear upgrades

the average player is just gonna play a different game

[trail dove]

yeah, trade league makes it easy. If you are SFF then you asked for it.. lol

[snow wasp]

do I really need to run corrupted + iridiated + level 16 waystone maps to get the best items?

[swift vale]

I've been SSF throughout the campaign but at this point it's just not fun at all anymore

I shouldn't be forced to utilize a trading system that isn't even actually implemented in the game to progress lol

that's actually insane

[dusky star]

not really, no

[swift vale]

"utilize a marketplace that we don't even officially support as the best source of getting gear to progress into mapping"

[trail dove]

it kind of is, just go to their website, it whispers the player through the game

[trail dove]

PoE1 was a 3rd party, PoE2 trade is literally by GGG

[glass blade]

POE2 Trade is native

[dusky star]

poe1 trade site was the same as poe2

they're both by GGG

[glass blade]

It’s shitty, but it’s native

[swift vale]

well if they're going to officially support it they should just put it in the game and make it not so convoluted

[trail dove]

not originally, it used to be a 3rd party site

[dusky star]

sure, and it is now, for many years

[snow wasp]

but those level 82 affixes wont drop on "normal" maps!?

[glass blade]

What part of it bothers you?

[arctic crag]

Poe1 console had in-game trade (same as currency market), was

[dusky star]

perfectly valid if you don't like mapping and the out of game trade site - it is possible to do it SSF, but it's very hard and probably requires a lot of experience

[glass blade]

Also, it’s early access month 1

[dusky star]

if you need specific affixes/bases that are ilvl 82+ then sure, but are you sure you do? have you checked poe2db
and you can easily earn a ton of currency outside of those high tier maps, to buy stuff if you want, unless SSF

[swift vale]

Having something listed for a certain amount and having to go through whispering 10 different people, 9 of which will probably change the price, to maybe have them trade the item to you, if they haven't traded it to someone else, is just an awful trading experience overall

and yes it's early access month 1, but this isn't a brand new game

they've had a decade to refine these systems

[dusky star]

I don't have much trouble with trade, but I'm used to using it and understand that if something is too cheap, they probably won't sell it

so I just pay more

especially since you know they're getting spam whispered by 10+ other people likely, if it's high demand and too cheap

[swift vale]

I'm not saying it can't work, i get that you can find a way to beat your head against the system and make progress, but it shouldn't be this convoluted. They are actively shooting themselves in the foot. I would love to know the % of players that get past the campaign and just quit entirely

[snow wasp]

whenever i try to buy the endgame boss items like the rift stone, people won't answer, not even 1 out of 10

[dusky star]

seeing how active the game is, I think a lot of people are still playing in to maps

[dusky star]

you should not buy things on the trade site if they're on currency exchange, which is instant and works very well

[trail dove]

there was a stat thrown around in PoE 1, that 80% of the players that started the game never got to maps

[dusky star]

breachstones are on the currency exchange

(ctrl-click alva in your hideout for the currency exchange)

[knotty apex]

Can you keep key from one sekhma run to the other ?

Like if there no good gold chest should I keep them ?

[dusky star]

the bronze/silver/gold ones? no, use them all

[knotty apex]

Eh

Ok

Ty

[dusky star]

there might be better ones on a later floor

if you're doing like a 3-4 floor one

[knotty apex]

Im on last one

Finished

[dusky star]

c'est la vie

[knotty apex]

But no good one

Oui

Sadge

Had 11gold key

And not 1 good chest

[dusky star]

you should have access to/already be in a zone called ziggurat refuge (past), there should be a map device you can use to access the atlas by using waystones (which lets you unlock your own personal hideout, when you find one)

if not there, it's in a3 cruel towards the bottom on the map

run a map then

[near beacon]

which channel should i use to look for help on 4th ascendency?

[dusky star]

it appears when you use the device/run a map, I don't remember exactly

[dusky star]

#2┃looking-for-group or go on TFT (the forbidden trove discord) and buy it

(most people won't bother to help you, on TFT you can always buy it)

[hearty comet]

Yes you get map points passives from those quests if I remember right

[near beacon]

got it hanks

[vapid iron]

Is anyone selling the t15 maps

[dusky star]

on TFT you can buy plenty in bulk, sure

[hearty comet]

You can also get LOTS pretty easily

Look for high waystone dropchance mods on your maps and run the highest on a +lvl map node

[dusky star]

and boss maps, yeah

300%+ on a boss map = 3+ t15s

[vapid iron]

TFT?

I don’t understand the crafting and forging

So

What’s tft

@dusky star

[amber helm]

it's another server, search it up

[charred island]

No don’t have all 9 gem slots in passive have 6 but my skill tree doesn’t allow me to go that far yet (lvl 93) in which I’ll only get 1 maybe 2 more. My gear is all high rolls, only missing mana on my wand which has spell damage, lightning damage, additional damage as lightning damage and +5 skills. My skills are maxed out. Lvl 20 and +2 with focus +5 wand - could add amulet but using gaze at the moment and haven’t found a way to make my build work without gaze amulet. My jewels are decent quality. When I look at other builds I just don’t get how their dps on spark, for example, is 3 or 4x as much as mine

[charred island]

And if you’re referring to sockets I have 7 on my gear all together. I just don’t see how these things could add 300k to my dps 😩 I’m definitely missing something or speccing wrong

[distant crescent]

i'm looking for a witchhunter grenade build i rember seeing one that launched infinite gas granade with no cooldown but can't find it again. does someon have a link or a name on build that correspond to this and that is not more than a week old ?

[knotty apex]

Is this the best trial of sekh runner we know of atm ? (Hexblast blood witch)
I tried farming it on my monk but I’m a bit scared to go to the boosted with desperate alliance relic, and would like to make a dedicated character for it.

[unique pivot]

Hi guys, how do I get %increased max HP on chest armor like in this build guide?

[knotty apex]

Vaal orb

[unique pivot]

Ooof

Ok ty

[lavish yoke]

My game just crashed during breach, then crashed 3 more times when trying to enter it back on loading screen, wasting 3 portals and disabling my map. What is wrong with these crashes

that sucks so badly

[potent kite]

ayo, anyone tryna hop on vc and help me sort out my infernalist witch minion set up?

[uncut abyss]

is there a waystone stash tab?

[barren atlas]

im guessing a new type of catalyst used on ring with existing quality resets the qualtiy back to 1%?

kk ty

[chilly swift]

how do you increase the quality of amulets and rings?

[barren atlas]

catalysts. each one adds 1% quality of its type I believe

[twilit maple]

I got a nearly perfect Maraketh Cuirass but it's the complete opposite of what my build calls for lol

[chilly swift]

i see, tahnk you!

[barren atlas]

ah I see, I just never saw one used on a lower ilvl

[knotty apex]

What would be than ? Spark stormweaver ?

I mean I can run sekh clearly on my monk

[river violet]

I wasn't referring to jewels, I was referring to using all nine slots for skill/spirit gems. And when you say your jewels are decent quality, I assume you mean gems?

[twilit maple]

Sorry I meant to say a nearly perfect titanrot cataphract lol

[knotty apex]

But I have a CI build

[twilit maple]

Maybe if I make a gemling that could be decent

[knotty apex]

And 1 unlucky affix is 1div down the drain if I want to farm deperate alliance

[charred island]

Sorry all 9 slots? I have 5 to put support gems in?

[charred island]

Yes I mean the sapphire gems in passive

[river violet]

You have nine slots for skill/spirit gems (by default) , then each of those can have up to 5 sockets

[tribal owl]

how do chance orbs work? like if i put it on boots, can it just become any unique boots? or do different types of boots turn into different types of uniques?

[zinc elbow]

is it a waste to fully exalt all 15+ keys?

[river violet]

The base type needs to be an exact match and you cannot chance boss drop-restricted uniques

[median escarp]

Any drop restricted uniques

[tribal owl]

good to know, thanks! im guessing if its not an exact match, it gets destroyed? or is that just a random chance thing?

[river violet]

If there's no item it could chance into, it won't work at all

It won't let you use the orb

[tribal owl]

ah nice. thanks for the info!

[river violet]

If it can work, it randomly destroys it, yeah

[tribal owl]

oh and does item rarity% also increase orb/shard drops or only equipment?

[potent kite]

ayo, anyone tryna hop on vc and help me sort out my infernalist witch minion set up?

[sharp eagle]

is it worth running some lvl 50 chaos maps ? I'm 80

[river spear]

just do 70+ and above, skip those lower levels... youll see alot of them once youre mapping

[tranquil forge]

Chaos trial?
Nah basically never worth it

[sharp eagle]

gotcha, ty

[viral blaze]

anyone k where is block list?

[barren atlas]

speaking of chaos trials, this is "reduced" not "less" right? Or did GGG word it incorrectly

cause 75% reduced mana regen when I have like +200% doesnt sound too bad

but if its LESS then thats another story

[charred island]

Ah ok. I don’t really utilise all of them, does it make a difference? I just assumed all that mattered really were the skills I actually use

[river violet]

I think if you're not using all your gem slots there are likely more things you could be using your spirit for and/or comboing. What are your main skills?

[tranquil forge]

I am lvl 91 quite a good build at endgame as monk and have 2 free slots

So I think it just really depends on the class

[median escarp]

thats rate

so you recover mana 75% slower basically

[charred island]

Main skills really are spark, orb of storms, sigil of power, conductivity and mana tempest

[barren atlas]

so it functions differently than this node then?

[median escarp]

the same

[slender wedge]

Would archmage improve a lightning ranger or is it more for sorceress?

[median escarp]

but read all your nodes again

mana recovery is not mana recover rate

[barren atlas]

but that node only gave me the same mana regen that a 15% mana regen node would

[median escarp]

mana recovery increases how much mana you recover, mana recovery rate increases the speed at which you recover mana

[median escarp]

that node is bugged

[barren atlas]

oh

[wispy yew]

any tanky and high sustainable builds that will be great for rituals recommended? playing deadeye ranger and it is fun but yet so squishy

[barren atlas]

in display or function?

[median escarp]

its supposed to be rate, but currently does not increase the recovery rate

[barren atlas]

so it does nothing?

or its basically a mana regen node instead

[median escarp]

tbh i cant tell

[barren atlas]

damn if they fix that node my build suddenly gets way better lol

[median escarp]

but its not increasing the speed at which mana is recovered which is what its supposed to

[barren atlas]

yeah its literally because of that node that I assumed reduced recovery rate would have the same effect

[potent kite]

anyone tryna look at my set up and help me out?

im level 93

[near plank]

#1308715058716610580

[torn plank]

so I'm seeing the boss health bar for Omniphobia in a delirium map but I don't actually see the boss anywhere in the fogged area?

is there something I'm supposed to do for it

[river violet]

Are you using a weapon swap for conductivity? It's a really easy way to get an insane amount of curse effect just for the curse cast

[charred island]

No I’m not - I use sigil and blink on weapon swap

[river violet]

What nodes do you spec into for those?

[tranquil forge]

Blink on weapon swap sounds very annoying too switch too

[novel flame]

what equipments are good way to get more chaos resist?

[tidal geode]

Rings

[undone merlin]

Holy crap 117 exalted for 1 divine on currency exchange. Wtf

[torn plank]

Found him finally

Is Forbidden Gaze a good unique? I don't see it on Trade

[arctic crag]

Is this a bad thing? The function of divine orb seems the same as poe1 and lets say exalted overtook chaos in terms of usage. The ratio for div : chaos was like 1:200 (or less maybe) and on console it was 1:400

How much was 1 div to exalted before this?

wdym they are not? they do the same thing

ah true

That was the biggest sing

*sink

mb

But we seem to have no deterministic crafting in poe2 so technically they should be really worse then?

[ancient condor]

I have the neversink item filter and cant see any scroll of wisdom drops, any idea how I can enable this?

[solid thorn]

is getting deadly snare bad in trials?

Worth taking this?

Makes traps do 3x damage

[tall lantern]

wheresall this great loot the map bosses are supposed to drop? not sure why i even have maxed points in the boss atlas at this point

[pseudo barn]

Are you juicing your maps properly? And even then, it all comes down to rng.

You can't do more than juice your maps and run some magic find on gear.

But that doesn't guarantees good loot.

[tall lantern]

yep, pretty much all have quant and rarity when i do bosses. 100% mf on items. I literally never get anything other than waystones

[novel flame]

do i need to use high tier map to get unique ritual rewards?

[tall lantern]

just feels backwards, not very rewarding fighting a boss

[dusky star]

atlas bosses primarily drop waystones, you get your currency from mechanics (breach/etc.)

[tall lantern]

basically just use em for waystones rn

[runic marten]

Is there any benefit to getting chaos inoculation other than chaos immunity

[amber helm]

not really

[tall lantern]

its weird, i don't find chaos all that bad. Majority of the times i've died now in t16+ maps is to lightning effects actually

[arctic crag]

Is ES easier to find?

[dusky star]

ES is easier to scale

[arctic crag]

Probably easier on uniques too right?

[dusky star]

it's all over the tree

and grim feast is OP

[arctic crag]

yeah, I am using to too, its broken and feels like it would be nerfed

[crystal wyvern]

if you "consume" fully broken armor, does the enemy gain all their armor back?

[dusky star]

poe1 had more "balance" between defensive layers, but it also had +life/life% on the tree etc.

[safe birch]

hey question, is it worth using vaals on t14s? i got a t16 from one 14, or should i just focus using vaals on 15s?

[prime swan]

Does the Expedition Pinnacle boss not 100% spawn?

or am i blind

[river crescent]

does the # matter in a vorana jewel or is that just useless lore info

[round ledge]

I don't know where to ask this but what's the best expedition atlas point setup?

[river crescent]

why?

[warped niche]

how can I make hammer of the gods fall faster?

[river crescent]

that is hilariously unexplained in-game

and also that guide is saying basically the number doesn’t matter because unless you get the exact same number, there won’t be the same result

[gray ember]

Is it normal I’ve done over 250 maps and not found a citadel?

[rigid prairie]

So i just finished the campaign, someting dropped that said it was identified(Tier 2) what does the tier mean?

[river crescent]

yeah but the chances of a vorana dropping with the same exact number is like 1 in 30,000

so why design an item around a variable that’s almost impossible to replicate

[median escarp]

yes thats how timeless jewels work

theres normally a number of rolls that are relevant to a specific build

[river crescent]

that isn’t anywhere though for poe 2

[median escarp]

and the position on the tree you socket them can affect which rolls are relevant

[river crescent]

the number range isn’t explained anywhere of what the other effects are other than the keystone transformation

so you basically have to just slot one in and see what it does, as of right now in poe 2

what a waste of currency

[median escarp]

its the same in poe1

altho poe1 has pob, which lets you test which numbers are good first

poe2 will eventually have pob too

but it takes time to make tools like pob

[chilly swift]

is there a way to check corrupted stat filters in the poe2 trade website? i'm trying to filter the freeze buildup in the screenshot but it doesn't appear

[river crescent]

i’m not denying their value i’m saying there’s absolutely zero information on what they do, how am i supposed to explain to a new player being new myself what they do

it’s the only mechanic in the game so far that’s quite literally unteachable

ok since you have a computer science background, can you tell me what vorana #8372 does

didn’t think so

[median escarp]

theres 30000 different combinations

thats just how the mechanic works

[arctic crag]

I have a very old computer science background ama

been a dev since punch cards

[river crescent]

once the information is available, you and me will gain the same information- don’t act like a computer science background makes you better at guessing a hypothetical passive node benefit than me

[arctic crag]

That is 100% not what I said because I said nothing at all and have no context of whats going on here

Whats the question even btw? I am curious and bored in meetings.

[median escarp]

the stats are impactful enough that for minmaxing youd want to try and get a perfect one eventually altho those can be extremely expensive (see poe1 right now has rakiatas lethal pride 14435 at like several mirrors), but not so important that it would brick your build if you dont have the exact right number

[river crescent]

you only know what 14435 does because someone else or you has slotted it in and seen the benefit

and/or there’s a chart of data because of how many numbers have been slotted and what they do

there’s zero of that information atm in poe 2 so if you don’t hear first hand from someone what a certain number does, you’ll never know

[median escarp]

and whats wrong with mechanics like that?

[river crescent]

that’s horrible what

[arctic crag]

ah jewels nvm

I am curuous to see what pob 2 will say when it comes out, maybe they will have more info

[median escarp]

the stats arent important enough that you need to care about having the exact number

[amber helm]

it was fine in poe1

[median escarp]

theyre just bonuses, theyre not build defining

the keystone is the important part of the jewel

[river crescent]

ah darn it i spent 30 div on an item that gave me the talents i dont want, oh well, guess ill post what they do online so that hopefully the information finds a new player and they dont make the same mistake

[median escarp]

and you know exactly what the keystone is from the jewel

[median escarp]

.

you dont need a perfect number

the keystone is the main thing you want

[smoky oyster]

Do characters get deleted or moved on release? Meaning will names be available on official release

[arctic crag]

I have a simpler question about the HOI, HOT chaining. It doesnt seem to happen as often as I'd imagine. The HOI seems to always trigger HOT but not the vice versa. Does this mean I am just not there yet with cold damage? I have so much flat cold tho.

[median escarp]

the number is just a bonus

probably just not enough cold damage? you need to build up to a 100% freeze in one hit to insta freeze them

with lightning you only need enough to inflict a 20% shock

[solemn canyon]

they'll all go into early access league, extremely unlikely names will be made available

[arctic crag]

ah thats what I was probably missing. The the shock seemed super easy to build up obv because I am using LA/LR too. I'll check if I can slot in gems or have freeze buildup nodes left.

[river crescent]

for circular teachings, would it give you 1% energy shield per 2 of your bonus strength you’ve added, or per 2 of the total number shown on your character stat screen

[small tusk]

Wait I think I finished act 3 and the game threw me to a new act 1

[median escarp]

or getting more freeze buildup on tree

[small tusk]

Is this some sort of a loop

[solemn canyon]

no polcirkeln?

[arctic crag]

yes

[median escarp]

total

[solemn canyon]

yes, acts 4-6 aren't finished yet

[small tusk]

Or something similar to elite difficulty of Titan Quest

[arctic crag]

They ahve only done 3 acts for early access

So you are still in #2┃new-player-in-campaign-help

[solemn canyon]

so you replay 1-3 in higher difficulty before you get to endgame

[median escarp]

it removes the existing strength bonus (2 life per 1 strength) and replaces it with the new bonus (1% es per 2 strength)

[small tusk]

I have been hearing people talk about ascendency and mapping

So just keep looping?

[solemn canyon]

no, just once

you play cruel difficulty and then reach endgame

[small tusk]

Oh

[arctic crag]

yes, no porcelain (too hard to spell). I had so much flat cold tho, I'll check freeze buildup

[small tusk]

It is like elite

[solemn canyon]

you (should) do your first ascendancy in like act 2 though, that's not endgame stuff

[river crescent]

how does maximum energy shield work, if you have 1000es and add 1% are you now at 1010es or what

[arctic crag]

and you can do your 2nd in act 3 as well. So the 3rd and 4th are really the "post act" ones but technically can be done any time.

[median escarp]

all sources of globally increased es are added together then multiply the base value

[small tusk]

I already got 4 ascendy points

[solemn canyon]

it works the same as any other additive %increased, but uh yes if you have 1,000 base ES and no existing %increased, adding 1% will bring you to 1,010

[small tusk]

Hopefully not missed any

[arctic crag]

yea total is 8

no you havent missed any

*yet

[small tusk]

Thanksies

[arctic crag]

no probbies

[river crescent]

i’ve got a bunch of +es on my gear so you’re saying that will all be multiplied in and make the 1% greater than actual 1% total gain

[vapid forge]

i feel kind of stuck. i can run juiced maps up to t12 comfortably. cant run higher without better gear, cant get better gear without divs, cant get divs to drop. what do i do?

[median escarp]

the es from your gear is the base es that gets multiplied by the increased %

[arctic crag]

Gotta see what you can improve with what gear you have. This is what SSF players would do. I barely trade and I just went through what I already had but just in more detail and carefully.

[sand steeple]

Hi ! Im doing T2/3 and i have to change my build right now but i need to farm ex for it, what’s the best way to farm ?

[solemn canyon]

%increased multipliers to a given stat are summed together and then the stat is multiplied by the final number

[arctic crag]

Plus passive tree, also equally or even more important that most gear for most builds.

[solemn canyon]

I'm not really sure what you're trying to say though

[arctic crag]

Just keep doing them, even the early maps drop exalted orbs.

[vapid forge]

i dont think i understand what youre trying to say

im sorry

[arctic crag]

hmm I was saying "try to see if you can make your char stronger without trading"

passive tree probably easiest fix

[solemn canyon]

if you have 1,000 ES from all of the flat ES on your gear and you have 200% increased ES from various tree nodes and whatnot, you will end up with 3,000 ES

[sand steeple]

But I need like 100 /150 ex .. that’s very long, it is not better to farm trial of chaos or sekhemas ?

[river crescent]

i mean if i have 3,000es and add 1% im just wondering if there’s a number i can expect to land at, since everyone knows the answer to +1% to 3,000
or if it’ll be different for everyone because of how much +es they have on their character

[solid thorn]

how much dmg do you need for trial final boss zarokh? Man I got to the final room and couldn't kill him. Lvl 88

[vapid forge]

right. yeah ive played around with my tree quite a bit. dps and total health pool are both pretty low

[solemn canyon]

adding 1% increased energy shield will not give you 1% more total energy shield unless you had zero %increased to begin with

[arctic crag]

can you farm them tho? If you are doing T2/T3 you'd only be able to farm low trials right? 150ex does sound steep, just gotta play more or see if there is anything you have that is currently valuable. If there was a trick to get this many exalts quickly then everyone would do it.

[solemn canyon]

this should not be that difficult to understand

[arctic crag]

What build? Try the build help for that channel?

[solemn canyon]

%increased multipliers are additive with other %increased multipliers

if you have 1k ES and 100% increased, that's 2k

if you add another 100% increased, now you have 3k

[vapid forge]

invoker monk. they basically told me i need to get my dps up

[arctic crag]

My point was to stop focusing on trading and thinking that all you need is trading to get unstuck, because there are modes where people cannot even trade.

[sand steeple]

Ok, I’ll try altars but I wonder if the rarity of Omens goes with the tier ?

[vapid forge]

but i cant do it without plenty of divinity orbs. i have one

[arctic crag]

And you have max possible sockets on gems?

[vapid forge]

me? no i have one at 4 and the rest at three

havent got any to drop either

all but one 4th socket to drop

[arctic crag]

used all lesser jewelers you got so far?

no greater yet?

[vapid forge]

i have used all the lessers, yes sorry. only one of the greaters?

one skill to five supports

[odd imp]

down??

[exotic pilot]

yea

[river crescent]

hope u 2fa

[weary tendon]

down for me2

[arctic crag]

I havent played invoker, could you see if that would help DPS? (having an exgtra support). Again my point was that the mindset that you are stuck unless you can buy more stuff is sort of a fallacy because the are game modes that have no trading at all. You could also farm whatever tier you are currently able to slowly and steadily for a while.

[scarlet turret]

i';ve found like 10 limestone hideouts and 0 any different, what is going on even?

[exotic gazelle]

server crash?

[solemn canyon]

is this a threat lol

[river crescent]

should not be that difficult to understand

[arctic crag]

[safe kite]

server rollback right when i was able to click for my ascension points T_T

[weary tendon]

hope it was not fourth

[vapid forge]

i guess me being new to the game doesnt help. i imagine there arent many new people playing ssf. but yeah i get your point

[arctic crag]

RIP, maybe support ticket time

[fallen iris]

Anyone else having problems to login the game?

[safe kite]

saddest part ist, before that, i bugged my character by blinking on a pillar on 9/10 xd
