right, you still could miss something tho
maybe, but there's a reason pretty much everyone plays with the loot view "always on"
there's literally 0 chance of me missing a chaos or better
is there a way to list gear for sale in stash but continue to wear it?
you can list them on the forums page but they'll be immediately marked as stale
is there a way to hide the button to upgrade a gem? i dont want to upgrade frostblink from level 1
forum listing works? i thought it didnt
poe1? right click
wow, it says it when you mouse over it lol. i never looked, just clicked it. thanks
youre in a poe2 channel btw
thanks, didnt realize 🙂
yeah you're right people are just pasting the text/images on that section
I've entered cruel but still have sacrificial heart. I can't find aggorat. How do I get there?
it's between utzaal and the black chambers and has its own waypoint
interact with a waypoint > at the top click act 3 > click aggorat
when your doing party play do you have to be close together to do get the loot buff?
does anyone know of a resource that will list out all the possible modifiers these essences can add/maybe a guide or spreadsheet on them?
and look at the tags
thank you
so from here, how can i get to where it displays each possible "Life" modifier or whatever other modifier I want to see? https://poe2db.tw/us/Essence#EssenceStashTab
PoEDB provides things come out each league, as well as items, uniques, skills and passives. Path of Exile Wiki editing functions.
no you need to look for an item you would use it on
eg "boots (dex)" for evasion boots
then you can use the buttons at the top to filter for fire
ohh okay so the modifiers would be different depending on the item
interesting. I wonder if there's anywhere to look at the data the opposite way, where I look at Fire modifiers for each item on one page
instead of finding the item type then seeing possible fire modifiers
so lets say this is the item i want to see Fire modifiers on, how do I see them from here? https://poe2db.tw/us/Lapis_Amulet#LapisAmuletFourAmulet5
dont look up individual bases
PoEDB provides things come out each league, as well as items, uniques, skills and passives. Path of Exile Wiki editing functions.
what does quality do to a sceptre? im pretty sure before this league it was increasing amount of spirit but it doesnt seem to do that anymore?
go here, then click the type of item
main page -> modifiers in top -> slot you're looking for (amulet) -> https://poe2db.tw/us/Amulets#ModifiersCalc
oh it would be Amulets, like this https://poe2db.tw/us/Amulets
quality of the skill granted
how am i suppsed to do mana sustain at t15 maps and wanting to lvl up my stuff to 18+. I have plenty of mana on kill, so when clearing screens, its fine, but against bosses that's useless
(ritualist lightning spear)
at a glance that page will show all possible modifiers you can roll on that type of item
if you click on one of the mods it will show you the tiers, and the item level requirement for those tiers to be available
cool, thanks for all the info
when you find an item in game that has "(tier 4)" when its on the floor, that means that when you identify it it will not have any mods below that tier
which is very useful because there are some giga trash mods that only have a few tiers, so they are eliminated from the pool
man that makes so much sense but for some reason i thought additional tier was just increased ilvl
do people use essences in crafting very often or is it mainly just alch crafting to try and get lucky?
i feel like using essences maybe lets you get a specific thing, but you end up spending more ex
its better odds
speed on boots is great
interesting, i didn't interact with essences AT ALL in the first season
essences are the main resource for breach rings
i wonder if the essences can be combined to make stronger essences w/ reforging
they cant
seems like a missed opportunity
you can reforge to greater essence from normal essences
that more stuff can't be reforged
its random
mainly you just get another normal
when currency exchange is just right you can make almost guaranteed profit from buying low cost normal and hoping for expensive greater
i think you break even most of the time because it's a known flip though
does map or player item quant affect the boss fragment drops?
or is it just the waystone drop chance?
yeah if you think you are being smart by doing something simple you're probably wrong 
finally made it to lvl92, can do T15 maps, but still die instantly to the tornado of that dumb bird in temple of chaos... what is the point of an ascendency "trial" if you can't even do it if you already HAVE the full ascendency points and are in the endgame? I mean, there is hard, and there is too hard!
F the Tornado KFC 
If i deal 100% fire damage and wear Painter's Servant, Trinity will only ever gain Fire resonance, right?
Since its 34% fire, 33% cold, and 33% lightning
you don't have natural damage ranges?
your damage will likely roll, for example 100-150, so 34/33/33 is completely within the range to gain resonance of all types
it would only be marginally worse than 33/33/33
Is it not that damage is rolled and then converted?
does it matter?
oh i see
I think it would? If you did 0 - 99 damage, before would lead to 0 - 33 of each damage, letting all 3 gain resonance, while after would cause you to always have a single point higher fire
Receiving damage involves several steps to determine whether the damage hits, how much damage is dealt by the attacker, how much of that damage is prevented by the defender's mitigation, and what resources (e.g. life, energy shield) are ultimately lost as a result.
according to this page, conversion is a fair bit before rolling damage ranges
which lines up with how i had it down
Okay so trinity works perfectly then, awesome
Now does Trinity go based off of Damage Dealt or Damage Taken?
actually wait it must be dealt since enemies will naturally have varying resistances
based off the highest Elemental Damage type dealt by your Attack Hit
do you get unlimited attempts on t0 simulacrum like the other t0 pinnacles
yep, so don't until you're close to 0% I reckon
welp, bit late for that then... guess i'll grab an amelioration and pray
does this do anything for a companion i dont see any new minions or anything
brother I just answered your question in another channel
doesthis work for choir of the storm
no. you cant socket an inherent skill inside a meta skill
i see. but would it benefit from the triggeres spell damage?
cause choir lightning bolt dont have the trigger tag. just checking
didnt think it can drop
it dropped in trials
Probably because Trial of Chaos tends to drop corrupted items, so it may have corrupted the waystone into T16.
true
Does anyone know anything about the Flicker Strike Amazon? I just built it, spent 40 Divine, but it doesn't feel right. Can someone take a look at it? - i pay for it (divine)
is the node changing evasion into armor worth it for merc? I have about 50% evasion and dmg reduction from armor
i want to go there for my amazon!
Question: What's the difference between this sign and the regular blue one?
rarity of the chest?
you can try, not danger staff as those mods
i looted many logbooks in this and the previous season, chest is good
How hard are simulacrums, im lvl 76 atm, should i js ignore them for now
very hard
lvl 76 you have almost no chance
unless you have mad skills
apart from the instakill effects of pinnacle bosses, simulacrum is harder than all equivalent tier pinnacle bosses
how do u check crit rate?
whats the best way to buy flat dmg rings in trade? I feel like weighted sum disproportionately weighs some ele over others because of how it takes avg of stat and then sums it. so lightning gets lower weight since its at 1-x whle cold is 16-x
variance issue?
yea >.>
i m using lightning converted to cold amazon, so i have to decide on that too
Hey guys, when you add delirium to a waystone, what does it really do for the map? I know it gets the modifier boosts, but does it do anything else?
i have 3 questions
- Has everyone their own loot or is it shared if i Play With Others
- do Get everyone Atlas Points or does everyone make Progress with the Atlas tree
- Do i and everyone reveal their maps when we Play together or Only the Party Leader/host
My 1 question for your 3:
- Does playstation's keyboard automatically capitalize random words? lol
Answers:
- Shared loot.
- Are you asking if you also make progress on the atlas passive tree if you're not the map owner for the nexus?
- If you mean for couch co-op, IIRC each player contributes to the minimap revealing
@fallen matrix 1. think so
2. yes passive tree progress if im not the map owner
- no not for Couch Coop For online coop
Do you mean the minimap in a zone or the atlas?
I mean the map you have to uncover
it's called the fog of war
and no it's not shared
only the map owner gets the point
Why then Play Coop ? Makes nosense
to have fun with your friends 
if my friend Steal my loot i dont have fun xD
and yeah tbh that system needs more iteration, these days the most they are doing in coop mode is exp leeching
party leader can set loot allocation
Every loot is then for me@junior hornet ?
free for all or permanent loot for each member
Oh ok perm is better
yeah and you can always trade if a person wants something the other dropped
Yeah thanks for the Help appreciate that
Hello, does anybody know if the silent cave map is bugged? i killed the boss and doesn't complete the map
anyone know if there is a list of nodes on the tree? so i can see how many nodes there are that grant increased critical hit chance or critical hit damage?
Can I ask why the helper is not being called, thank you
not enough spirit?
How do I pick it up?
Hi guys, is it bannable to use AutoHotkey for automatic replies when trading, inv and kick?
can i replace the old instilled skill?
should i be cleansing a nexus first and then doing the surrounds maps or vise versa? im only at T8
clear it 1st
and it's not necessary to clear all place you see
just the juiced ones?
any ideas on how to drop a Maligaros? I'm wondering is it possible to get lucky from Alva and get it by gambling?
but i cant find it anywhere
tablet with it for juicing maps
sorry if its not clear what i want
i am not good at english yet
Precursor tablet (implicit) xx maps in range contain corruption s site
sometimes even better to keep some nice place before using tablet
also the mod will change after cleansed, so the +1 level may pop up on map boss location. unless there are already +1 on map boss before that
By god I hate trading in this game
that's why i hate upgrade the gears

many a sleepless night is spent in doing this random ass bullshit
usually when buy one gear, then you have to chainingly buy others
The reason you’d do the outer maps before the nexus is to farm higher item level base items, which is best to do when you’re running t15+ maps.
The “cleansed” zones supposedly have more chance to drop currency
Gotcha so until I reach the higher level maps, I want to do cleanse areas. Thanks!
I’m a ways away from T15
anyone know why this is happening
Can’t have 4 waystones in at the same time lmao
Hello! Can anyone help me with the last King of the mist fight?
Is there a chat for giving away sekhema carries?
I pretty much exclusively run sekhemas and I ran out of people to give carries to in global/forums
a great deal of people looking for help with trials there ^
anyone know if there is a list of nodes on the tree? so i can see how many nodes there are that grant increased critical hit chance or critical hit damage?
!pobinfo
Path of Building is a third party build planner for Path of Exile 1 which includes detailed build configuration options and statistics. LocalIdentity and some other members of the community have taken over and currently maintain the most popular version now known as Path of Building Community which can be found at:
https://pathofbuilding.community/
Right but even in path of building you can't just see all those nodes and add them up easily can you?
maybe you could extract the passive tree data into a spreadsheet or something?
why would you need to do that
there's a search bar, type in crit, look at what's avaliable
Right but I wanna do it for a bunch of other stats too
for what purpose
in poe1 there was a skill tree json
i dont think they've released such for poe2
Just doing some analysis. I want to see what nodes are available is short supply, see their values, quickly be able to sum them and determine if a build I've been thinking about could potentially work or if there isnt enough stats to support it.
I'd also like to be able to better value which stats are most valueable on pieces of gear by seeing whats available on the tree more hollistically
So for example, just looking at the tree nodes for critical hit chance. You basically need a spell to have 12.5% crit chance if you want to be able to get it to 100% crit (not including increases on gear)
is this crypt map bugged? can't figure out how to get these rare monsters
nevermind I'm stupid
increased mana regeneration rate increases the base regen rate of 4% maximum mana?
yes
is gain damage better %spell damage?
What makes a Tangletongue Forked Spear better?
than any other spear? high base crit rate and critfork
what is mana recovery rate vs mana regeneration rate?
so enemies just have 10% life less, yes?
When I have to leave, pause the game in a map, can I continue at a later point or will I get disconnected?
if you stay in game you usually can continue. But sometimes you diconnect etc.
is it just me, or is vaal factory the worst zone of all time (both versions)
i feel like it has the most dangerous enemies by far
I think so too. Citadel also is the only one where I sometimes die
it's super frustrating. It feels like I'm up two tiers in mapping just by playing on vaal factory
I'm just taking insane amounts of damage out of nowhere, compared to other maps
Yeah. I started using white maps for vaal factory, if I cant avoid it
does the tame beast skill work with those new spirit wisp things (asuming they grab an elite you can capture)
does conductivity lower their resistance to negatives? or does only exposure do that?
Question how can I get 5041 tribute so that I can get omen of whitling so far I haven’t bee able to even get close most I’ve gotten is 4k on a T14
Should i not actually run and complete a corrupted nexus when i encounter one before i run all of the maps around it? Just got to maps and did one to get atlas points but now notice i don't have the corruption anymore :/
You should do the nexus first
It cleanses the area around it
Which comes with buffs!!
Better buffs than the corruption? Thanks for the clarification!
both can take res to negatives
If you need help with doing arbiter, just dm me. Free help.
i want someone to carry me in Arbiter of Ash
i was linking to a guy, the one above my message @wet nexus
wil do thankx
hi @wet nexus i need help in Arbiter
Rad!
tx
need 2 min then i will add u whats ur tag
@wet nexus ready ?
i am ready
Fabianstrategy#7923
Did you send the invite?
i dont know also where to go
yes
(discuss this in dms or #2┃looking-for-group , not here)
will do sorry
Guys I'm stuck at black crow phase 2 he is untargetable and i dont want to die and lose xp what should i do 😭
Log out for 15 minutes
I'll try ty
oh ffs... just got dced during a boss fight and now all my protals are gone
i didn't even die... f*ing unstable servers
yeah servers blinked out for me too, lucky just after my audience
does anyone know why doees it say "incorrect sacrificee currency" here? thanks in advancee
the box below the ultimatum needs chaos orbs
ah kk thank you
I was doing my corrupt nexus node and I died it just shows the node as completed do I have to find another node ?
is there a way to allocate a spell to a second weapon set?
why is my only option to go right when it looks like I should be able to go down or left?
The completed node is connected to 6 other nodes, and due to a possible (bug?), you can only travel to 4 nodes from any completed node.
Maybe I am wrong, but that’s how it is.
interesting, thanks
Just did a map like this with T16 Lv81
But didnt get Point 7-8 for Boss Tree
Does it have to be 6 mods too?
+2 it should say if you got it right
why is it not +2?
Corruption + Irradiation no?
so its just random then?
in each corrupted nexus there is precisely 1 map that already has +1, do NOT clear the corruption, it's needed
if it has a boss, you irradiate it to make it +2
if it has no boss, you irradiate and add bosses to make it +2
then you put in a t16 waystone
YES IT'S RIDICULOUSLY CONVOLUTED
Mannnn im still at +4 corruption and now this too
Fml I want the old grind of 10 maps each back xd
so has to be corrupted, +1, irradiated +1, boss, and T16 waystone
0.2g should fix it, hopefully
corruption +1 when it feels like it :>
Did you put in a maxxed out waystone (6mods) ?
4
I will try to get a 6er and see if thats the problem
Anyone need help with arbiter?
on poe ninja, what does the diffrent color lines mean? are they all allocated?
Weapon Set I & II
ah i see
I found it
to corrupt an essence do i just use a vaal orb on the trapped monster
yes
thx
Very good, now you'll have to irradiate the area and add bosses though
and pray
I thought about it and the best option is to literally CLEAR everything else in tower range
Alright but somehow I got 4 Towers in range
so I might not need RNGesus today
gluck
yay... glitched rare moster has materialised belowground
Do you not have pickaxe, exile?
um, I think it's okay? You'll see +2 when you enter it I guess? Don't kill me man I spent 2 days trying to do that
make sure it's a t16 waystone
I am just mad at the game for adding more RNG
but it being PROGRESSION and not loot xd
yeah it's totally unnecessary rng in this scenario
it's not like you're after a rare pinnacle boss
I haven't killed one last league neiter will I in this one from this rng mess xd
I'm not going anywhere near as high in pinnacle tiers this league
1 maybe 2 tops, except for xesht who's the easiest and I went 4
0 for arbiter, that guy's stupid hard
More jank :>
the best (?) should be keep the corrupted map boss area undone, hope for they will be +1 after cleansed
also i tested, +map boss difficulty from the tree is also needed for the further map boss points
need many practice to dodge its one shot
Mate looking at my map you lying cuz every cleansed map with irradiation has no longer the +1
very few indeed
so far i bookmarked only 4 map boss +1 areas
oddly enough not the practice I enjoy
we can't trade here, but someone might help you for free in #2┃looking-for-group
Oh okay, thank you.
i hate that too
good, it's not just me
especially its one-shot is a bit random (the position)
in es calcs it overall all es = (base type es + flat) x %
and is the % es from runes additive to % on gear?
anyone has a low chance of getting delirum tablet?
not sure, I think I've only seen them drop within a delirium
huh?
yea I think u need a mirror
to have it to drop
deli infused waystones drop a disproportionate number of them
idk why in some maps I lose xp when I die but in most i don't
eh you do in all maps except for pinnacle bosses and simulacrum
but you can't lose levels, so the most you can lose is to the start of the level you're on
i dropped from 80% to 5% lol
is the an equivalent of a "voidstone" on arbiter kill or just arbiter points for the atlas tree
no rush for arbiter then thx lel
those last points are great, 30% chance of corruption on all maps with bosses is a nice boon
oh yeah so it can drop t16 possibly right
im down to 1 vaal orb so yeah might be worth it then
I've never seen it drop t16, it's just the extra corruption mobs, and sometimes the corruption boss
someone here saw a T16 drop in trial of chaos though
i avoid that too , and greed
it destroys possible bases
I only pick up those two if they have a second effect, and cancel the greed or corruption immediately
cant even socket the gear if it drops a nice piece
how you do that? click on the icon like POE1 ?
yep right click on it
thanks , didnt think its a feature never tried haha
np I used to portal out and in until I learned lol
hah snap
I spec hard into shrines since there's not much else to spec on the useless atlas passive tree - specifically the seeking variant which is +150% rarity while active
yes im full spec into shrines also
I also take the increased chance of unique strongbox node, they be good
and that
^_^
For a mainly lighting arrow build, show I place into bow two lighting 1-30 rune, two increased physical damage +25% runes or 2 souls cores that buff elemental damage with attacks by 30%?
Does soul core that buff elemental damage with attacks by 30% even works with lighting arrow?
iron rune it adds up with quality
yes the soul core works
lightnign arrow is an elemental attack
however i dont think it does full convert to lightning, its still partly phys dmg
so the ele dmg core will buff only the ele dmg part
which, depending on the build, could still be the best choice
Thanks
you found a base which has an implicit
yeah, i just hadn't seen that on body armour before
accuracy caps at 100% right?
wait why my pob doesn't show the numbers 👀
have you loaded it up fully?
if your hit chance is still under 100% it won't show anything from allocating that node
oh right, but seems like my hit chance is different from tooltip
have close range checked
why i have so low drop rate on delirium tablet
are you doing delirium encounters with rarity gear?
have you specced into precursor drops on atlas tree?
also the more delirious the more drops
my gear is low on rarity drop, but my delirium tablet drop is really low when compare with other kinds
this
try running a few maps with more delirium
and if you have any distilled disgust, that ups your precursor tablet drops by 30%
but they're pretty pricey
Give the ability to disable the friend effect in a pack and their minions.
just ran a 21% delirium with 200+ rarity (from waystone and tablet) and got none again lol
yep gotta love those drops... not
still rng, 30s rarity in a normal delirium suddenly dropped 2
yep that's how it is, not sure rarity helps there
although i should not be the one camplain that, as i got a perfect orb on around t3
nice, I did much the same
got perfect orbs early on instead of divines, and then they stopped falling
seems i got around 3 div on early tier maps
but got much less now lol
earned them through currency exchange and selling the fragments
I've only got one perfect orb. 10 divs total this run. last run i got maybe 20 divs, and at least 5 perfects
And I just hit level 88, yay
I might push through to level 90 and start hitting the citadels
seems hunting citadel is more efficient for non expert mappers
what do you mean?
their fragment worths a div
ah, gotcha. so farming citadel fragments for divs.
although the real earning is through trading gears? those can earn tens div each trade
but this is too much to learn as new (comparatively) players
tbh, it just hits a point that you just want to play through content you haven't played. so you trade for better gear until you can.
anyhoo... time to jump off for a bit
unless keep playing standard, there will be restart in the next season again
so just take the chance of learning for fun
but not push oneself too hard
Yo team, has anyone been able to reduce the charge time of Plasma Blast on Mercenary? Seems fun but 2.5 sec charge time is killer
Been clearing pretty well with grenades but getting a burst skill for bossing seems a good choice with my Lv52 Witch Hunter 🙂
storm lance (with frenzy) functions like grenade lol
is there an API for the currency exchange have and want prices?
can you change whats in the sockets of an item thats been corrupted?
yes
anyone has same issue? I got DC during trial and now cannot log any of my chars
me.
can't log into the game.
kinda wonder what voodo blizzard has as they never have server issues
man thay have so many issues and server crashes...specially on launch days 😄
try to change server
I tried, not oven old league chars can login
do everyone gets the ascendancy points even if one makes the boss and the others are outside ?
others can wait in the room before boss if it's sekhemas
any way to increase chances of getting boss map skill points or is it just purely low rng
no matter what i do pob never matches my character window
You could try the "fast forward" skill gem
Idk if that fits into plasma blast
But its the only way i can think of to make the channel time shorter
You could pair it with the gem that makes it so you fire 3 blasts
And then slap expanse ontop
Plasma Blast's charge up isn't a duration, so it cannot be supported by Fast Forward. It's the result of an increase to Total Attack Time, which generally can't be modified.
Does completing a corrupted tier 16 waystone, not allow you to purchase Tier 15 maps? I assumed "highest completed map - 1" should let me now buy tier 15, but it did not.
Anyone need help with arbiter or xest? I would like to help. (not for any money or resources, totally free. I just really like doing bosses)
Does that mean that Doryani maxes out at selling tier 14 maps?
guys i want to ask do you actually need elemental infusion in order to go for freeze based Lightning spear build?
what map mods does ritual get affected by? I'm like 99% sure it's not affected by quantity(at least the rewards window isnt, idk about actual drops) but idk about anything else
may be pack size? more monster so higher potential score?
would it actually work? doesnt it just respawn packs you already killed?
2 logbooks again, my going for chest theory at least works quite well on me
like yea the pack would be bigger in the first place but it wouldnt like double dip on pack size or anything odd right?
ye i was just tryna min max the rituals since idrc about how hard they are, but it seems like i'm just better off minmaxing the other stuff the nodes are gonna have (like breach)
just risky because it locks us into some tiny place
there were few times i couldnt see well the surrounding blocking me
Sekema i ned help ! 4 TH
do you guys know why infused weapon with the support lightning exposure is not making any when using storm lance?
storm lance will make shocking ground, so cant induce additional shocking?
oh I see, and the unique I was previously using mention all lightning damage so it was inducing it CorrinThink
im lvl 92 rn and im using choir of the storrms amulet should i keep using it or use a normal one? (lightning spear amazon build)
in contrast it works quite well with converted cold, as there are shocking ground already, and cold exposure's condition is critical hit
I see, thanks a lot ^^
Anyone need help with any bosses?
can i add you as friend? lol
Sure. Cangobrrr
yeah, finally leveled to 91, with once backwarded from 30% to 0 and 80% to 5% lol
hi guys, I'm looking for someone that can confirm this for me, is the prism of belief diamond with skeletal sniper levels bugged at the moment? no matter what i do i cant get the 3 levels from it
Guys, where do i find Beasts with haste aura?
go to map with high beast spawning chance, then pray to the rng god
There is any other way to get it? Like buy from other players?
account binded
there is one unique location only spawn beast
and, may also use waystone with +1 mod with rare
Does itemlevel of jewels matter when reforging rare jewels?
like do i need to only use high ilvl jewels to guarantee I can roll better mods/ranges? or are all mods on jewels just the same pool with the same chances
how does sekhemas carry work for the person carrying? do i press 'leave trial and save progress' then go collect a party then come back or have i missed something
does this mean the players will need 600 hp?
Hello is there a way to get a lot of tributes in a map? Like 5000+
any recommendations for amulet distilled emotions passive
Wondering if the beyond reality passive (maps have a 30% chance to contain corruption) also applies to cleansed maps?
Is there a limit to how many Phaaryl Megalith maps you can harvast passive atlas points from? I just did my 2nd one and got no Atlas points.
Anyone here leveled past lvl 96? 95 to 96 wasn't that bad, but how bad is it getting to 97, 98 (I'm never getting 99
you get total 5 sets of points from 5 DIFFERENT unique maps.
keep in mind there are more than 5 types available, i found 7 types so far
Thx. That's reasonable. Still was a fun map for loot.
when you place cursor over the map, it will tell you will you receive any points from that
What does "map portal remaining" actually do? If a map spawned with only 1 portal, does it mean I can't return to it if I port back?
it means how many time you can retry if you die
portal back to home is infinite
ty
Is this for affording audience with king? You probably need to defer it a few times and then it gets cheaper each time.
But also the way to get tons of tribute is layer the emotion on your way stone that increases pack size. You get like 24% delirious, a good pack size boost, and then on top of that, the random delirium mobs that spawn near the altars get included into the sacrifices. So more monsters spawn. I find I often am swimming in tribute on the 4 ritual maps with that layering done. (usually skip the 4th ritual even, because I already deferred, rerolled, and bought/deferred everything I want after just 3)
Also open maps end up with way more tribute. Like steppe or rust bowl or whatever.
Tiny hallway maps often have way less tribute.
forge lol
God forge rituals aren't just bad for tribute, they're murder walkways lol
forge expedition is also like, meh
Oh you wanted to dodge the mechanics by walking to the side? Tough luck.
Honestly some of the maps are just garbage for pretty much everything. I wouldn't mind if they had upsides. But hallway maps are pretty much all downside AND more dangerous, so it's just not good game design IMO
Like, give us a mechanic that's STRONGER in hallway maps plz.
and this game has bad visual on obstacles, have to pay attention on mini map
Breach weaker, delirium weaker/same ish, ritual definitely weaker and more dangerous, and expedition is weaker/more dangerous with hallways.... Where's the upside to hallway maps??
Not to mention hallway maps with less total enemies, more corners that keep enemies alive and therefore ready to kill you, etc.
Just feels weird. You'd think they'd try to have pros AND cons, but it's just "oops all cons" with like 4 or 6 maps in the pool.
Like trenches? Wtf is this. Tiny map, basically no mobs....
And tiny hallways to boot.
Vaal factory, fuggedaboutit
forget the name, that dark forest map only spawns 2-3 rare lol
The unique one?
i have high dead rate on vaal factory
no, just common one
Yeah I talked about it yesterday with someone else. It feels like that map has two tiers higher waystone plugged in. It's nuts. Idk who's in charge of enemy balance but the enemies on that map in particular need some serious tuning
Specifically the one that's not the molten gold version feels the worst. Though I hate the molten gold one just as much because the map design of that is sooooooo bad. You get stuck on freaking everything, so many things overhanging the screen, you cant maneuver anywhere....
and enemies immediately appear at the gate, plus lag can easily kill me
i learnt to just pause the game fast
oh ok thanks appreaciate didnt know that I have 3 omens of the good ones and i just wanna hope they appear when I have enought tributes i did not know deferring actually reduced prices thanks!
Yep! So it tells you when you go to defer it. Usually about 2/3 the cost is the future reduction, and the other 1/3 is just extra cost. If you see it again, but can't afford to defer it, it will still show up another time or three, but the price goes up in those cases (cause you didn't defer it). Apparently if you fail to defer enough times, the item goes away, but it'll warn you that it's gonna go away if you don't defer it (so I've heard)
ahh gotcha thanks!
does corruption on a piece of rare gear have outcomes such as delete/reroll/bricking the item ?
it reads the worst case scenario is only rerolling 3 affixes
what direction do i go to find citadel?
correct
significantly nicer than poe1 corrupt
there is no straight brick outcome, even the worst outcome can be neutral or even positive
lolz
nice to hear, got good results from a 1 hour gambling / craft session
gambling on body armour if just wanting +5 movement speed implicit is probably a poor choice over other pieces
gold is powerful enough in end game it can somewhat replace scouring orbs itself , just not ilvl82
it will probably take a content creator to make it popular for the average player before ppl catch up to it
and considering how buffed our odds are in this game relative to the systems/options we currently have
Just went past two islands and no citadel. Might submit big report
There’s a minimum distance away from the starting spot in which citadels start to spawn
pretty sure rerolling is getting new modifiers aka brick
nup, unless you are corrupting 6 affixes relevant to you (you are doing good already) , the 3 affixes rerolled might end up being better / worse (brick)
if its the best item you have then you'd still think twice but once you reach towards your end game gearing you'd be slamming left and right
like many other things in POE2 theres alot of hidden buffs in its systems at least relative to POE1 and even diablo 2
gambling in poe2 is exactly the same as d2r , except they made it more powerful by cutting off the lowest bases
if i have 4 affix item and it rerolls one of it then it's usually brick but yeah I suppose technically it may be positive
yes so because GGG has basically lowered the ceiling here, a player will win more slams overtime than before
Wth, did Dark Souls gate their content behind RNG
also this
Is 2k life in Poe2 like the equivalent of 6k life in Poe1
closer to 4k life i think
or 3.5k
can someone tell me what rolls on crossbow sell well? Is it flat or is it %dmg
is liek either good?
I read up about characters using melee skills being better off with armor instead of evasion and es. How true is that for something like monk?
ev is a gambling
I think you'll be better off with eva/es on a monk
everyone who's eva based is better off with eva/es
Even with gear playing around my current level (69) I'm still at 60% ev with a few perks involving ev/es. Is it better if I take pieces that are dedicated to one stat vs split stats?
there are nodes that capitalise on one item being pure, eg more ES based on EVA in body armour and vice versa for helmet
yeah spectral ward and subterfuge mask
that's why I have pure eva on body armour and pure es on helmet
👍
Could you give me a few examples of these nodes? I only have the ones that share ev/es
lotte said above, spectral and subterfuge
Subterfuge is a bit out of the way for me. Is it worth getting? I can definitely get spectral
I dont' take subterfuge for the same reason, there's an example of their relevance to a completed build
Also, I have so many +melee skill level perks that I'm consuming mana like a mf. Any advice?
you can see subterfuge adds a lot of evasion to mine, but only +2% evasion chance which I can get for less points elsewhere
if you head back to the middle it's okay but I head away from it
you know why people are using eternal youth ? what happens when life flask charges have run out on bosses ?
i cant think of anyway to top up that ES once all life flask charges are gone
convalesence
there are many ways to cook it for sure
ooo
Here's my pathing fwiw, subterfuge too far away
I note the evasion nodes look like a uterus and ovaries
but the best approach is gid gud and don't use that many charges 
get flasks with affixes that let you keep charges in boss fights yeah
im not using anyway, just dont get hit + ghost shroud lol
That's definitely out of the way for either of us tbh
yeah you're miles away - the other option is on a megalomaniac, it might be an unpopular node on mega and make it cheaper
amulet annoint is an option, altho I prefer offensive annoint 
same
getting a passive node on the far other side of the passive tree that gives the most damage is the goat for anoint
I've even done weapon swap into flask recovery nodes so I get some between phases
I'm thinking Beastial Skin to chain it to Proficiency actually. That should let me capitalize on Spectral a hell of a lot more
yeah beastial is great when you have pure eva body
you saw the massive boost it was for mine
there are my more or less finalised defences
that and ghost dance (+ wind dancer, the evade chance is counting that)
Does beastial actually add to the body armor eva%?
yes it's based entirely on body armour eva and adds to that
this is my body armour, to capitalise on that
you can easily get over 2000 eva on body armour affordably provided you're not after too good other affixes
ssf the same since you're only after 3 good affixes
slipstrike and exquisite vests have the best base evasion as bases to craft if you're so inclined
both 584
ideally ilvl 82
if not, 79 is close
slam them with defence essences (enhancement)
I think I lost them 15minutes ago
Anyone know if hammer of the gods can heavy stun so it builds enough glory to recast?
Why not this?
it's allocated by my megalomaniac
I want to get a better combo megalo so I can manually allocate that since it's on my path, but they cost 10x as much
Explore economy and build overviews for the action role-playing game Path of Exile 2.
and it only works out to 2.5% more damage with a better one; that's not worth 25d to me
also I only have 12d left
anyone happened when open the strongbox, the character lost access to control?
strongbox can have a modifier that freezes you when you open it
not freeze, sometimes is lost control access
it even happened on other conditions
and i got the charm
yes I've had it
there's a bug there I believe - if it freezes you when it opens, but you have a thaw charm it bugs out with the combo sometimes
I log out and in again and can resume
i started to do that too, but has to be very fast
well I was stuck for a good 10s and figured the game was bugged
i just dead, fortunately just leveled up
nice
with 30%->0 and 80%->5 to level up to lv91,
this time safely leveled to lv92
is there any point to using curses if i'm utilizing exposure? would a curse improve my damage in anyway?
yes
it can push resistances further negative
unless you are using an item which negates resistances like the beacon of azis, then it's a mixed bag and usually not worth it
elemental penetration hits a cap on the other hand
pushing exposure isn't worth it?
not with beacon, no
let's say you do a high tier boss, they have 75% ele resistance
with beacon it becomes 0%
with exposure it's 55%
with beacon and exposure it's 0%
ah gotcha
you have to 'choose' your approach, you can't just stack everything; some things are complementary but others aren't
exposure and curses are additive
yeah seems like for me exposure is fine for clearing but flammability will help with bossing
ele pen is pretty weak in poe2 since it maxes out at 0%
guess i can throw this exposure support gem in the trash 
beacon is awesome, but it makes a lot of stuff useless
it's nice to ignore taking any ele penetration
and is amazing on waystones with +50% monster resistances
I've seen as high as +90% in map with juiced waystones
it also means you can take a mix of cold, light, and fire added damage and they're all equally good
until you boost one of course
which is lightning 90% of builds
breach t0, bugged or i walked too fast?
(i have done t0 on last season) it started counting down and couldnt see any monster, then the road was shut
when counted to 0, teleported back to the entrance, seems there were few mobs, then couldnt see anymore
did you wait before tripping the breach? There are a lot of shaders to build when you first enter and things may be invisible until they're done which is shitty
See this shader bar go nuts when I first enter a map
i guess i ran too fast? i started to run when saw the count down
i cleared t0 on last season, so i have a brief idea on that
now i can stay in that world and do nothing
And over a minute later
the green graph drops to nothing but it took a minute on that map
if I load up the game newly and enter a map and start running, the enemies are invisible for the first half a minute
what the
it's not a problem when the game's been running for a while
but shaders always go nuts when I first enter a new map
means the lagging?
yeah it lags the frame rate but also some things are just invisible initially
took me a while to debug it
now if it's a real busy map I wait a bit before running out
it happened on me when meet the 1st group of mobs in map
but didnt happen this time, it just ran very smooth
Why do i have another ring/amulet slot on my second char?
how do I do this in pob
do sceptre afixes that increase minion dmg retroactively afect us due to the 'inspiring ally' node?
Titan is bugged and shows (purely cosmetically) the ritualist's extra ring slot if you take the extra 20-slot inventory ascendancy point. Is that character a titan?
No, scepters give a damage increase to allies in your presence, not companions
but it says that allies include minions and companions are minions, what kind of buffs applies then?
yup
thanks for the answer
you can test it anyway
Inspiring ally specifically states that increases and reductions to companions applies to you. Not allies, not minions, it must specify companion
Idk of any gems that would work
emeralds have 'companion deal +x% increased dmg'
Oh, jewels
oh f sry im new
maybe try using vulkan, directx11 and directx12 and see which works the best for you
I'll be honest though, poe is one of the worst optimized game I'm playing rn
to compare, I'm at 90fps on monster hunter, 160+ on warframe, and between 20 and 30 on poe2 x)
I tried, they all end up using the same backend
I'm on linux btw
I made the mistake of turning shader caching off a few weeks back which used to cache them at startup
then i re-enabled them to avoid this shader on entering map issue, but it never went back to the old behaviour
I also changed GPUs and driver so it's hard to know exactly when it began
anyway it's fine most of the time, it's only if I'm planning to record the map that I wait for shaders to complete since it adds a little more load to the GPU
How much does a 4th ascendancy cost now a days ?
how does pinnacle boss drops work? do i have to fight t4 for all possible drops? or can i just do lower tiers like t2, are there any difference
I believe 0.2 changed it so that all difficulties can drop all rewards, but you have a significantly lower chance to get the rarer drops from T0 rather than T4.
thanks a bunch
usually just ask in #2┃looking-for-group and someone might do it for free for you
otherwise, trade isn't allowed here, so check the TFT discord
Yeah I wasn’t looking to trade was genuinely curious 🙂 but will check other channel
'minions have increased life' on sceptre works on inspiring right?
No, inspiring ally only works for increases and reductions to companion damage
Literally only "%increased companion damage" and "%reduced companion damage"
Nothing else applies, regardless of how companions are categorized
how do i get out of this ritual
i ran around the whole area but nothing is spawning
hi!
im trying to use envy+paranoia+envy destilled but it says the combo doesnt exist (should be relentless vindicator for crit/dmg/stats)
probably some ground dweller
that one's been removed as an anoint in 0.2
uff
all the inner ones near class start are no longer anoints
ok, thanks!
Is it just coincidence that after my 6th set of Atlas points I stopped getting the guaranteed map drop or do red maps not have the guarantee like the rest?
seems the drop rate will be lower than 100% at some point (the map tier)
Thanks for the info, I thought I was missing it somewhere, even after scouring the whole place, and did two maps just to confirm.
Is there a way to trade for gold?
Just gotta sell random stocked up items to vendors
After defeating Balbala (I tried in both Act 2 and Act 5), I believe I either forgot to pick up the Djinn Barya quest item or may have accidentally discarded it. As a result, the Trial of Sekhemas portal no longer appears on the Caravan map, and I’m unable to access the trial.
I've tried killing Balbala multiple times again, but she no longer drops the item. I’ve also completed the campaign and moved into the endgame, but I’m stuck with only 2 Ascendancy points, which is a major issue for character progression. Some users on the forum suggested that I now need to beat the Trial Master in the Trial of Chaos to receive the remaining Ascendancy points — which is very punishing given this was not an intentional skip.
Hello guys. This is really frustrating, but I have no idea what should I do. Sometimes expeditions spawn these caster runic mobs which off screen insta-cast circles which literally instant kill me.
Any tip?
dont pick the dangerous mods
and plan the strategy before denote
the escape pathway
Is there a list for that? Escape is not an issue. and I even try to off screen kill the mobs, but still.. those circles, are just, instant killing me sometimes. 4mod t15 maps with some tablets..
and go for chest, i had high logbook drop rate from chest
i meant the mod from the expedition (forget how they call)
I know you mean the modifiers for runic mobs. But not sure which ones will spawn these annoying off screen killer pests
or just avoid those flag?
yes, which flags 😄
can you distinguish monster from chest before explosion?
Well I go for flags for sure besides chests and pack size / magic / rare count increase, but I did not realise the flag themselves will spawn different types of mobs based on their visual
Yes, but my only issue those instant kill circles from off screen
just avoid those fancy looking flag then
or experiment youself just after level up 😂
yeah, I just lost half level 😢 🤣
half level?
or maybe a full. Died couple times yesterday, and today, on same sh*t
yeah, not a big deal tho
but safely leveled from 91 to 92 with the new mindset
i went to fight the citadel before in 80% exp, doryani one shot me few times
its funny I had no issue on citadel, and limitation on deli+breach with buffed pack is my rtx 2060 does not like it.. but these runics, are deadly
that's why i dont want to stay with them on the same screen
in last season, i was using summoner, i think i kept the distance of more than one screen away from them
amazing. I never had this issue in poe 1 lol
and keep moving, dont stand lol
dont kill runic mobs as your bombs are going off, wait for all of them to blow up then engage them so you can AOE blast
they can be more deadly on the logbook area
i thought they updated chaos trials to allow 3rd asc at level 65, using a 10 trial token. i've yet to see a level 65-74 token with 10 trials
how i can switch to present after finish guys???
tp to drowned city and walk back to ziggurat encampment
can't
only uztaal, agorat, black chamber
tp to ziggurat encampment and use the gateway
i'm gonna be tp to riverbank if go to the gateway
yeah i mean i'm in act 3 normal
but your map says you have reached endgame
i mean i just want go back to present
oh ok
you can just go to any (present) zone and use a portal
assume you are trying to sell relics yeah?
where do ilvl 82s drop from?
like can rares in arealevel 79 drop them? what about 80? 81?
i know alvl 82 is best, obvi, but those are hard AF to create
area level 82
t16 irradiated and +1 area level node
also expedition logbooks
so rares in alvl 81 won't drop ilvl 82?
is it just bosses in alvl81?
i know i've gotten some ilvl 82s so far, and i've never run a t16 waystone
so i'm just trying to figure out how to maximize my ivl 82s
not sure if I need to try for 80s or 81s
you can only get ilvl 82 items from level 82 mobs
bosses can have +1 monster level from atlas passive
🤔
i definitely dont have that
and i've never run a t16 map
to my knowledge, I've MAYBE run an area level 81
i've definitely never done an 82
so how have I gotten ilvl 82 items?
dont wanna be rude but I found this on the official poe2 wiki so it seems you're wrong (or wiki is wrong)
sry i tried finding this earlier and couldn't. Google is useless these days
doesn't even lead to the official wiki with the actual answer....
huh
leads to shitty blog sites and ad ridden nightmares
guess i learn something new today
but also that is a bit out of date
corruption isnt guaranteed +1 anymore
I don't think anything changed regarding ilvl in 0.2 tho
you need map node with +1 area level specifically
yes, the +1 from area is now only certain corruption/cleansed areas, but the rest is the same I think
so it must have been bosses in alvl 80
or I got lucky and had a t16 at some point but I don't remember running one yet
Most likely a stupid question but… What do people mean by “Juicing maps”? Is there a guide, or is it as simple as “high level and rarity”?
the variety of ways to improve outcomes at (usually) a risk. so adding modifiers to waystones, layering emotions on waystones, and then doing towers with 6-mod maps so you can add 3 tablets to those towers (and ideally having multiple towers overlap on a few nodes)
What are people doing for their atlas passive tree for general map blasting at t15?
i'm currently specced into greater essences but it doesn't feel that great
Is it a pob bug, or the leech passives do nothing?
im trying to use bind spectre on a terracotta soldier in act 2 burried shrines but it wont let me
it's been a while but is there room?
sorry finished it >.<
I’ve grabbed every possible pack size/more monster/more rarity/more quant node possible and have been staying away from any of the REC nodes until wisps get their buff, then gonna spec into wisps and see how it feels
(REC = random extra content)
So just generic foodstuff and no specific content and no keystones? I can't get behind any of them. Can you share a Pic of yours? Am curious
Yeah it’s generic and boring but it makes maps feel more full and fun with more mobs to kill, lemme see if I can find one, one sec
Yeah I ask because I have considered doing the same thing. Little bit more waystone, more packs, bigger packs, more rares, more tablets (I have all the tablet ones) I'm curious if you went for the "increased explicit mods on waystones", cause those are double edged.
Couldn’t find a screenshot but it was something like this (on vacation rn so not able to check in game)
I just try to run 3 prefix / 1 suffix waystones as much as possible
WTB T4 trail for ascendency points
Is there an easy way to filter those out?
Like if I roll 20 alchs on white waystones. Do I just have to manually read every affix? My eyes start to gloss over sometimes lol.
you can use a sinistral omen to guarantee 3 prefixes and 1 suffix with alch
Oh. Smart. That's why those are more expensive tho I'd guess 😛
kinda, but bear in mind making the enemies harder also increases drops, so it's a 2 edged sword
I did it for a while and my drops decreased
but it's a good way to make hard maps easier
wiki is correct
i wish the poe2 wiki searches show up more often and not fextralife haha
wiki is outdated about coalesced corruption, and "official" wiki isn't official by ggg, it's maintained by the community
but yes you can get ilvl82 items in a lv80 area from uniques
this is one reason I spec into delirium bosses on the atlas passive tree, since they're uniques
ohhhh right. Are they the only uniques that aren't map bosses? That's clever, I hadn't thought about the fact that they're uniques and not just like, "super rares"
its so annoying. I've started just going straight to the poe2 wiki and using the search there.... I understand it's only maintained by the community but it's 90% better than any other source for MOST of the basic information I've needed. The worst part is the game itself just... fails.... to give proper information. For a game that has such work put INTO the late game, they need to have an in-game "exilepedia" with tons of the nitty gritty details about how stuff works
instead they just say "eh screw it, curious people can look online"
and like, no, you have a very complicated game, and you're even catering to "complicated players" as part of your core audience, and yet you feed them very little actual information about incredibly complex mechanics? cmon y'all.....
wait what? not really. Unless I'm misunderstanding you. As far as I understood, the suffixes on waystones have only two effects: "make stuff harder" and "more waystones"
if you don't need the extra waystones, suffixes are just pure downside, right?
do omens not work in titan inventory? i just ripped a chaos trial with omen active and it was not consumed
i dont disagree with GGG's approach personally but yes some things could be worded better but im used to alt tabbing and reading
its alot of info to upload on a game and probably dont have the manpower to delegate for it haha
reddit is also a source for info lol especially on how certain mechanics work
for the most part, yes, but it doesnt need to be avoided like the plague either as alot of the suffixes arent really that much dangerous
crit multi/monster damage/-resistance/25% resistance penetration/temporal chains are the ones i personally take note of, % increased life on monsters if it tanks my dps
the suffix modifiers are the ones that increase waystone drop chance, so it's a balancing act
also, just had a T15 waystone drop from an egg nest on an untainted paradise, yay!
does map mods affect unique maps ? (like untainted paradise)
yeah thats my annoying list as well. Also ignited ground is super annoying
ignited ground/shocked ground are fine to me, i just pay abit more attention on which map im putting that affix in
also dodge to pass through the degen grounds safely
time to get my 8th boss points
Yeah, and the very rare corruption boss
Making stuff harder also increases rewards, I thought otherwise but my experience confirms it does
i don't want to be rude, but do you have any evidence of this or a page that explains it? I'm not saying it's impossible, but it's also going against both what the game itself tells you, and what i've read on wikis and stuff
Nope, purely anecdotal based on this season's farming
By all means try prefix only waystones for yourself
They're certainly easy and quick
One suffix waystones are easy fodder
Unless it happens to be the one downside that bricks your build
are you not moving around
Hello, all i got the quest clear tier 2 corrupted nexus but when i try to open a map on the said nexus it wont let me open one? Can someone kindly tell me whats wrong?
what tier are you waystones
did you put in a rare one (4+ affixes)?
it tells you if you mouse hover over the button
rng is teasing me
does jewel ilvl matter?
or are they all the same chance to roll the same affixes/ranges/values
Hello guys, may I kindly ask how do we see the stun bar on rhoa? I play on ps5, thanks
does anyone know how to solve the problem of boss's hp bar covering the frenzy charge icon? Resulting in me not knowing how many charges I have atm. I tried deactivating a few spirit skills, but in boss fights where other buffs are proc'ed it still turned out to be too many. Thanks in advance
arbiter brrrr, even 1st one is like 😦
What are the best bases to use orb of chance on this season guys?
i saw a streamer that had a timer for a breach/delrium but it was like the entire duration of it had a timer not just the last 4 seconds. is that a setting or smthn?
wow... just did my first T16 map boss, and it took forever. I think that map had a mod i didn't notice
ummm does anyone know why I cant cast my lightning spear? ( grayed out on the skill bar)
it also has different rarity modifier
have you changed your gear recently and lowered the dex?
I swapped the gear from deadeye to amazon, but I have met the attribute requriement
about the rarity, what's weird is the number of rarity for lightning spear didnt change after I take off my helmet, but it changed after I take out the rings ( have 38% rarity on helmet)
it's like lightning spear just ignored the stats from helmet
what support gems are in the lightning spear ?
hey do yall regal waystones? do you alch wwaystones? what about in low teir waystones?
regal yes, but only in yellow tier maps so didnt have enough alchs to just use on non red tier ones
swapped this back to my deaedeye and it's working for deadeye but not amazon..
what support gems?
are jewels gonna be how im gonna get my res? https://pobb.in/kzPv9uCGw7s9
that is weird
weird deadeye
ggg devs want you to use runes
?
Also this was the wrong chat sorry
It’s poe1 build
That’s the wrong build
Igfhhchchchch
Or it’s not
Idk man
try forcing it to use weap swap II only
Still the wrong chat.
ah you're so right, im such an idiot lol
i equiped my gear on weapon set 2 withhout realizing it, and my lightning spear was set to only be active on set 1
me 
kek
i have ci on and 7k es but i still get 1shot? it bypasses shield
no ascendancy points
Does your mana flask have "removes X% of mana recovery from life on use"

doesnt matter, it will go poof anyway 
woot... got olroth on my first logbook and killed him first go
hey guys what uniques should I look at getting as a witch doing minions
Was hoping I wasn't going to have to read moby dick to figure it out
just go there and ask is fine
does this mean that if I'm close enough for accuracy, I effectively have 100% crit? or around 80% if far away?
venom crypts
do i just kill mobs?
boss
wait
no
its in a corpse
it will be highlighted green so you cant miss it
ok
it will always be at the last corner you check 
i found it .....
lol
the area you find it is called "Den of the Serpent Priestess"
shows on the map
Hey guys
I wanna help my friend with trial of chaos but he cant enter before boss room why
