this is really weird, is this a bug or is there a method to the madness

tall lantern
#

Do I just have weird RNG or are others getting a ton of breach rings with multiple fire based rolls. basically every second ring is fire attack, damage and resist

narrow cosmos
#

how do i get atlas points?

idle hazel
#

Completing Corrupted Nexuses and Unique Maps, or doing the boss encounter for each of the other smaller trees. For the Breach tree, it would be by defeating Xesht, for the Boss tree you just need to fight higher level bosses, and so on.

#

How do people afford wind dancer, ghost dance AND companion ? I only have enough spirit for 1 of these, and my body armour has 54 spirit on it. Is there a passive node somewhere that boosts spirit greatly ?

#

Or do you need to buy a 200 divs amulet with spirit on it, to be able to afford it ?

civic sail
#

has anyone resolved this issue? I spoke to him but i cannot complete the quest.

what should i do here

#

There a good video or guide outlining the general approach to juicing maps? has it changed much since 0.1 league?

I'm not sure on the best way to get ilvl80 and above maps? should I irradiate?

kind cypress
#

is there anyway to tell on the trade site if a modifier would be targeted by a whittle or not?

#

like this bow for example how would i go about checking if i could whittle off the leech or mana per killed

#

Anyone familiar with poelab.com? does this mean lab layout resets everyday and the guy who runs the website updates it daily?

amber helm
#

well the lab does reset daily

#

the site isn't updated daily now that the guy is retiring

leaden iron
#

also the blue lines with circle is getting me confious

amber helm
#

oh it seems hes semi back

leaden iron
#

ye its updated as of now

amber helm
leaden iron
#

the blue circle's locations correspond on the map orientation in game right, no need to think about it too much?

amber helm
#

yeah i guess

#

doesnt really matter unless you're going to be a lab runner

#

I want to maximize the dark shrine, to get more tries on the divine font if ever I got it

#

thanks fr the help

heavy kayak
#

Is there a way to use PoB to check damage differences when applying different sockets

amber helm
heavy kayak
#

like

#

I have a soul core of ticaba in my TT

#

I want to see what the damage would be like if I had a Saqawal's Rune of the Sky in there instead

#

but obviously i don't want to waste the divs trying that out in-game

amber helm
#

yeah

#

just import and hover over said runes in pob

#

it will say dps change

#

pick the higher one

heavy kayak
#

I'll be honest, I'm fairly new to PoB

#

how would I do that

#

wait I think I figured it out

#

i don't even think that socket is in there 😦

#

that rune I mean

amber helm
heavy kayak
#

... how xd

#

Edit item text?

amber helm
#

Gain 6% of Damage as Extra Cold Damage
Gain 6% of Damage as Extra Fire Damage
Gain 6% of Damage as Extra Lightning Damage

#

copy paste that into the item

heavy kayak
#

ok

amber helm
#

observe the damage with this and without

#

and with the other rune

heavy kayak
#

well dang, it looks like it goes up

#

42k with the soul core vs 43k with the rune

#

o.o

#

thanks 😄

amber helm
#

it could be off depending on config but that's something you'd have to figure out

heavy kayak
#

in-game seems to reflect the same thing

#

works for me 🙂

rotund trench
#

I'm not sure how to modify gear in pob either. In the windows app I just see a list of gear. I can hover over them and a popup appears with some stats, but I'm not sure how to edit the mods etc.

#

Oh, I see you can copy gear to the edit panel on the right side.

crystal wyvern
#

Is there a list of effects and modifiers and gems that are affected by “increased skill effect duration”

rotund trench
#

Do jewel modifiers have tiers or is there just one tier for each modifier?

amber helm
#

or: how a new player gets really excited that all their mods are the top tier.

crystal wyvern
#

That link is for poe1 and trying to replicate it on the poe2 site doesn’t work…

junior hornet
#

maybe search duration here

#

these are skill gems only, not effects, but most effects has a duration so uh it applies to them I think

#

btw mod messing up channel name lmao kek

rotund trench
#

Found a Relequary Key and trying to figure out what it does. From the wiki it sounds like you go to a vault and if you have a unique you want to modify with a visual effect you can add it? Is that right or ...?

junior hornet
#

the vault is near your 🏠 location on the atlas

rotund trench
#

Yeah, I see it but what are you supposed to do exactly?

junior hornet
#

use it like a waystone, on the Vault

dire panther
#

yo are citadels rare? i swear im so far from the starting spot and s till havent found one

junior hornet
#

you get a random foiled unique and a nice (or cursed) message from a supporter

rotund trench
#

ah, ok

torn thistle
#

Does Increased Magic Monsters mod on a map stone add extra packs to a map, or does it upgrade existing normal packs up to magic packs?

placid fern
#

the way i understand is is blue packs are larger

karmic zinc
# dire panther yo are citadels rare? i swear im so far from the starting spot and s till havent...

Not super rare. You can spot them fairly far into the fog as well so make sure to look around every time you reveal more; especially a tower.
Additionally the most recent patch makes it so that if you find one citadel the other two are going to be in the same area.
I don't know what the actual luck / RNG is on it but I find that my citadels start to appear 4 to 5 fully zoomed out screens away from my starting point

#

Also you have already gone to the burning monolith to start the quest correct?

dire panther
#

yeah i have

torn thistle
placid fern
#

i assumed the generic pack size mod effected all packs like a global mod

#

but now that you mention the specific blue pack size mod..

#

i think it increases the number of total packs of blue mobs

#

Increased Magic Monsters that is

rotund trench
#

I can't pick this stuff up. When I click on it nothing happens. The other stuff in this cluster were far from the label. What should I do?

#

porting to hideout and back fixed it.

idle hazel
#

Press Z twice, that hides and then shows the tooltips again and resets them to be closer to where the items are.

rotund trench
#

k thanks, I'll try that next time

nimble frigate
#

when im usiong pob for arc do i put in lvl 20 or lvl 27 because of the plkus globel lvls i have in game

twilit sequoia
#

what can i do?

#

already the second time occuring...

idle hazel
#

It's a known bug, the Remnants still have their effects afaik, you might be able to see the effects by hovering over the little icon that appears on the bottom right after you place an explosive. As for what to do outside of that, just wait for them to figure out the issue and resolve it, GGG is already aware of it.

twilit sequoia
#

ok thx

dire panther
#

god help me ive been maping to the left for 4 hours and st ill ahve yet to find my first citadel

#

temppted to ticket for support lol

rotund trench
#

The wiki says that Olroth is affected by all previous remnants in the chain. I thought I saw a video that said he wasn't. Which is correct?

rotund trench
#

Anyone know which expedition chests can drop waystones like this?

#

Oh, it seem like they are "Vaal chests".

narrow cosmos
#

how major is level of skill gems stats on items in general?

#

it's usually better than flat damage right?

junior hornet
#

spell skill: huge
attack skill: it's a % increase, but not a high priority

#

exception for attack is totems, you would wanna scale levels on that (dunno if there's anything else)

junior hornet
narrow cosmos
#

there's pob for poe 2?

junior hornet
#

yes

#

oh wow that was quick thank you

#

If pob says I'm at leech cap, adding more leech on gear shouldn't do much, right?

any idea why i cant 1 or even 2 shot t4 bossess? spent so much on jewels and items but i really struggle with boss dmg, it was the same with ingenuity belt

cobalt fog
#

When I ascended the first time and I run the second trial - can I change my class immediatly (and have 4 points) or do I need to run the trial again a third time?

idle hazel
#

You can respec the ascendancy class if you get the same or more points from the Trial than you have already, so if you have 4 points and do a Trial that would've given 4, you should be able to respec.

cobalt fog
#

ok so I can

does the waystone used on a "Moment of zen" map make any difference?

hi guys trying to farm a good beast for tame beast skill. how do i reset the rare with the checkpoint? its not working for me

dire panther
#

i have farmed 1.3million gold worth of maps and still no citadel is that normal?

placid fern
dire panther
placid fern
#

But also not really indicative of anything

dire panther
#

ive been mapping for like 6-7 hours now and not a single one

placid fern
#

Try a different direction? Idk. How much gold you farm isn’t really related to anything but the gold find modifier on your maps

sick fog
#

So I am running a t15 on a map boss, irradiated, and corrupted map and it is only showing level 79 and will not give me my atlas points. Thoughts? When I slot in a T16 it only shows lvl 80.

placid fern
#

It won’t show the increased monster level from irradiation until you open the map

sick fog
#

So any reason you can think of as to why it wont give me the atlas points? I have run 3 maps, 2 15 and 1 16 with irradiated and corrupted

placid fern
#

On the boss tree?

sick fog
#

yes

placid fern
#

Do you have the double corrupt node on the main tree?

sick fog
#

I do not

placid fern
#

I am not sure then

hmmm, thanks

itll go well with my

placid fern
#

I been trying to offload my owl charm before the price implodes but not much luck

Not yet I think only through corruption or natural drop?

worn moon
#

allegedly Cat is the 2nd best one

#

dudes in here were saying mines worth a mirror+

#

but i dunno

#

im on standard, i just said fuck it, ima use it

#

tossed it on my LS ritualist

#

its def badass

placid fern
#

Yeah if you’re on standard just use it

worn moon
#

well i mean, im poor rn otherwise on standard

placid fern
#

I wanted to sell mine so I can buy a Chernobogs

worn moon
#

well not poor

#

just currency poor

#

also hit this vaal earlier

placid fern
#

I’ve done what I did last league, spent all my shit leveling alts and respeccing only to hate my respecs lol

worn moon
#

im using it rn- but unsure if i should be

placid fern
#

That’s a good corrupt

worn moon
#

ya for a LS ritualist its great

#

i live on crit crap

placid fern
#

I use that ring on my thorns build it’s awesome

worn moon
#

i just started using it last map so i havent really gotten to see any benefit from the ground effect

#

it'd be helpful on those temp chains maps

#

n such

placid fern
#

You probably won’t see much use on LS since you move so much

worn moon
#

i can also see 2 ingame miles

#

well i am using it for the large crit

#

i get 3 ring slots- and they are all amped via ascendancy

placid fern
#

The consecrated ground part I mean

worn moon
#

right it would be a 'catch your breath' couple seconds

placid fern
#

Yeah

worn moon
#

esp if u temp chain

#

i dunno it may be useful

placid fern
#

I run time of need to deal with temp chains

worn moon
#

if im only running one companion tho i need a dual aura one

placid fern
#

Does consecrated ground cleanse curses?

worn moon
#

ya

#

50% faster

#

or takes 50% duration off

placid fern
#

Yeah that’s good then

#

Didn’t know that

worn moon
#

i forget what the life regen number is

#

not super important tho

#

but it halves curse durations

#

but hard toss up between extra raw dmg

#

cause base dmg on the stupid spear im supposed to use

#

is wretched

#

placid fern
#

I hate tangle tbh

#

Idk why they release busted weapons like that

#

Busted anything really

#

this new i think

#

rustic canyon
#

why I keep disconnecting

worn moon
#

Cause u keep reconnecting

rustic canyon
#

do you have this problem too? Ping sudenly 14 sec and then dc

worn moon
#

i do not

rustic canyon
#

I keep loosing ultimatum progress and maps, can't do anything. Area is closed or non existent

worn moon
#

#

until it clears up

#

play an alt or something

rustic canyon
#

I am going to play another game, was thinking about buying some supporter pack, but if they can't put enough money to run reliable servers, there's no way for me

worn moon
#

its not their servers brother

#

its your end

#

everyone else is fine

#

youre the only person, in days, ive seen mention connection issues

#

and theres hundreds of thousands

#

i think

#

?

#

unless u in a backcountry country

#

with wild internet stuff goin on

#

thats still not really even GGGs prob tho

#

first thing id recommend is analyze who is using what devices on your router

#

ie who has access to your wifi, and what devices are you/they using

#

perhaps one of the devices is streaming in some ultra HQ mode

#

or one has a torrent program running unawares

#

precursor question- is anyone else near you complaining of problems? are your other games/programs working normally?

#

my qualifications to issue recommendations: Im 40, My dad is my room mate, I play path of Exile 2(not 1 at all)

#

next caller please

rustic canyon
#

I am not streaming anything and I am the only one using my router(only connected iphone by wifi and this computer by LAN), I am listening to online radio only and using no other programs with internet connection except poe2

worn moon
#

but can you use other games/programs without issue

rustic canyon
#

yes, I am playing another game without issue

worn moon
#

single player?

#

all i can say is: you can bet it isnt GGG. No one else has/is saying anything

#

so it has to be on your end- perhaps your provider

#

man, my elbows are dry

rustic canyon
#

are you playing on Frankfurt server? I guess most people are sleeping

#

Why the area is closed, not accessible after disconnect? if it was on my side, I could still access the area

#

no, it's runescape, mmorpg

#

I don't say it can't be some hardware issue, but the other game is fine

worn moon
#

no man im in the US

#

does Blackflame bypass Fire Immunity?

rustic canyon
#

torn thistle
#

My Tame Beast has Reviving Minions as a mod, but it never summons anything. What gives? Is this mod non functional or is there somthing else i gotta do?

lunar shard
#

Maybe it only revives your own minions not mobs you have killed

placid fern
#

I think it doesn’t apply because the rare itself has no minions

junior hornet
#

Its reviving not summoning kek

torn thistle
#

....It certainly did have minions when i blew its head off with grenades lol

junior hornet
#

But you capture the beast alone, not the minions kek

torn thistle
#

Sure, but the minions sit under the Beast which has Reviving Minions - the same tag thats on player skelly minions

junior hornet
#

Mod isn't tag

torn thistle
#

Wording needs to be updated in the UI

junior hornet
#

From my way of understanding,those minions are "assigned" to that beast with the mod

#

#

guess next project is acrobatics

simple trench
#

does doubling up on +1 map bosses like this do anything

placid fern
#

yes

#

though at that stage there may be a cap im not sure

simple trench
#

yeah thats what im wondering

#

ie does it go from levl 85 to lvl 96

placid fern
#

i usually do that before i have that many points

simple trench
#

er 86

#

oh hm

placid fern
#

i was wondering the same thing but im not sure how to verify

#

maybe fight the same boss with and without and see if you have to deal more damage to kill

placid fern
#

according to the wiki

#

oh its the same tooltip as in-game

amber helm
#

what a coincidence

placid fern
#

who would have thought

rotund trench
#

For a particular build guide on maxroll, can you export the example build in the guide to a pob to look at in the app?

worn moon
marsh furnace
#

I failed the first corruption nexus with an earlier character and now I can't seem to find another one? is it just that I need to keep looking or did I fubar my progression? also is there a way to reset my entire atlas progress or do I just have to wait for them to do another update?

rotund trench
#

You can talk to Doryani to refund atlas points.

hot knoll
#

is this within radius of a tower ? not sure if its worth plugging a vision of paradise

placid fern
#

i dont think so

#

its so close its hard to tell

dire panther
#

do you need 3 different types of ultanatums for trial master or can you do like double deadly ?

placid fern
#

you need all three

dire panther
#

so they have to be the different types like coward/victrous/deadly?

placid fern
#

yup one of each to open his door

#

can probably use currency exchange to swap out doubles if you get them

#

some of them have orders up it looks like but not all

#

im gonna research

#

that was underwhelming

#

i take it back

#

no its worthless lmao

dire panther
thorny widget
#

guys is there a way to increase the radius for font of rage/mana/blood on totems? specifically on ballistas, the game won’t let me use magnified effect or reach.

placid fern
#

if you can it will be through stuff that affects auras

#

i dont see anything on the passive tree tho

#

Hello everyone, I have two questions about expeditions:

  • Does the bonus for increasing items discovered in chests apply to chests already unearthed? (To find out if it's better to complete the expedition before opening all the chests)
  • Does the difficulty of the expedition increase the rewards for all expeditions, or just for Kalguuran?

Good game to all and good luck !!

placid fern
#

your second question im not sure i understand

#

logbook difficulty applies to all logbooks

past horizon
#

Which page of the wiki is it? I looked but I didn't find anything.

placid fern
vernal ruin
#

excuse me, how do you get atlas boss skill points? when i hover over maps with corruption they dont have a +1 to enemy level.
i tried doing a t15 irradiated+corruption map, however the boss did not drop the book. i am currently 6/10 points

hmhmhm thank you

#

ill check if i have that double corrupt node

rotund trench
#

Might try google to see if there is some info on it.

#

Found a For Utopia Stone Charm

vernal ruin
#

it seems they have changed corruption, it now has a chance to roll +1 to level, rather than being guaranteed

placid fern
#

yes that's new this league

vernal ruin
#

very intuitive changes

placid fern
#

lol my only t16 corrupted back down to 15

thorny widget
placid fern
#

no i checked the whole tree i didnt see anything except Volatile Catalyst that might apply

#

all other increased AoE nodes are specific to something that i dont think would apply to fonts, like Attacks or Banners, etc. very specific to certain gems

queen cloak
#

How hard is the Breach boss? Does he have any one-shot mechanics?

placid fern
#

i think he is one of the easier pinnacles but he has some hard hitting moves

#

would not be a bad idea to watch a quick guide to know how to deal with them, none are too complicated

queen cloak
#

Damn, i'm scared then, i'm HC level 90

placid fern
#

for difficulty 1 there is probably not as much to worry about

queen cloak
#

On the PoB, are green nodes = weapon set 1, and red weapon set 2?

#

Or am i misunderstanding something?

placid fern
#

can you take a screenshot?

queen cloak
placid fern
#

yeah

queen cloak
#

Hmmmmmm

placid fern
#

if i remember all those nodes it looks like a weapon swap to drop curses

#

seems good

queen cloak
#

So the staff is being used to put the curse down?

#

Like Blasphemy

placid fern
#

blasphemy is an aura

#

probably despair in this case since it looks like it takes chaos damage stuff too

#

but yeah, drop a despair and then swap to your other set ( wand + shield im guessing)

Ah right

Thanks!

#

These plots show a switch in the galvanic shards early mapping tree from high shock chance to more shock magnitude and evasion. Pob says the shock chance drops from 23% to 16%. I'm worried this will make me weaker. Any thoughts/suggestions?

placid fern
#

try it if you dont like it just go back

#

magnitude is probably better

#

5% shock chance is not so much in comparison to all that magnitude

rotund trench
#

So magnitude makes them more vulnerable to dmg?

placid fern
#

yeah it increases the effectiveness of the shock

#

base is 20% increased damage iirc

rotund trench
#

I see so if you have 10% increased mag it would go to 30%. or 20 x 1.1?

placid fern
#

i think 1.1

rotund trench
#

yeah, makes more sense

placid fern
#

50% increased magnitude would be 30% increased damage

#

if i am mathing right

rotund trench
#

On pob where does it tell you shock magnitude?

placid fern
#

its easier to see on bosses

#

im not sure i dont use pob that much

rotund trench
#

oh, regarding bosses. It says galvanic shareds projectile has very low shock chance (3% even for high sock chance tree). and 23% for beam. But don't you only get the beam if there are multiple targets? or can it beam single target?

placid fern
#

i dont see anywhere in the tooltip where number of mobs has an impact

#

the beam can only chain once as a base but against bosses doesnt really matter

rotund trench
#

Ok, so maybe it just chains to same target it hit.

placid fern
#

no if there isn't another target it just wont chain

rotund trench
#

I guess I don't understand why there are separate stats for projectile and beam. I guess I was imagining projectile hits target and does low dmg then splits into beam that does higher dmg.

placid fern
#

because its two different things happening

#

the projectile itself, the bolt

#

then when the bolt hits an enemy it triggers the beam, a second calculation

#

the bolt only converts 60% of the physical damage to lightning

#

the beam converts 100%

placid fern
rotund trench
#

In pob the shock magnitude is represented where the arrow points. For the lower magnitude tree this is x 1.0.

placid fern
#

35% increased damage

sour pine
#

Is there an in-depth pob tutorial out there ? That software is quite hard to get into

rotund trench
#

Well 15% increased. 20 x 1.75 = 35

placid fern
#

the shock when applied is 35% increased damage i meant

rotund trench
placid fern
#

i struggle with PoB too

#

the UI is kind of..

#

lacking

rotund trench
#

But the more time you stare at it the more it makes sense.

placid fern
#

equipment specifically is kind of a headache but you can import builds by logging in which is a huge help

#

oooh twilight key

rotund trench
#

You can create any gear, but you have to specify all the mods etc

placid fern
#

yeah the UI is just not the greatest, the more you use it it does become easier

#

i havent had any luck using the calculator to find actual gear upgrades on the trade site with it

rotund trench
#

I haven't tried that

#

You pretty much know what gear you need. Just a matter of money/luck.

placid fern
#

yeah

#

amazon: more accuracy = gooder

sour pine
placid fern
#

im not sure what you mean by cant select the value

rotund trench
placid fern
#

there is a slider that lets you change equipment

sour pine
placid fern
rotund trench
#

There is a slider on the right of the mod

placid fern
sour pine
#

Yes so when you adjust the slider it changes the value, but non match exactly what's on the tooltip in-game

placid fern
#

if you want to match what's in-game just import the build

#

like yeah its not 100% precise but its close enough

sour pine
#

Ok I didn't know that existed

placid fern
#

top left there is an import button

#

you can login to your poe account and just import each character

sour pine
#

Alright thanks for the tip !

i just learned this myself recently

#

after also being like ok in-game my weapon is 206-411 but because of the slider i can only get 205-410 lol

sour pine
#

Will the res/Crit chance/DPS etc match exactly what's in-game then ?

rotund trench
#

If you clone a gear, do you know how to edit a mod already there?

placid fern
rotund trench
placid fern
rotund trench
#

many things are based on assumptions about monster level etc, but these can also be adjusted

placid fern
#

i think he means the equipment mods?

rotund trench
placid fern
#

dps i am not at all certain how PoB works cause in-game the tooltip will update in real-time so if you want accurate spooled up DPS you look at it while youre killing stuff. my assumption is PoB calcs fully spooled DPS

#

but it might have a calc where you can tell it what you're targeting with resists and stuff to get even more accurate readings

rotund trench
#

my impression is that it tries to come up with realistic values taking as many factors into account as it can

#

but those factors can be adjusted manually

#

Anyway, both in-game and pob are just estimates. But if it goes up it's probably better.

placid fern
#

big number good

sour pine
#

Ok. There is some unclear stuff to me, like support gems placement. Do you out it on your main skill or your herald for better DPS etc... For example ambush. When you put it on your skill the DPS gets lower, but you're killing things way faster than if you had a 35% increase dps (if you slot in another support gem instead).
How do you calculate "true" dps ? Even in-game it's not clear, so I'm not sure pob is able to calculate that ? It's all very confusing, you're supposed to theory craft a build very precisely but can't trust the DPS tooltip to tell you if you'll kill things fasters or not

rotund trench
#

Problem with amazon crit scaling with accuracy, is that harder enemies have higher evasion, so you both hit less and have lower crit. Double wammy.

placid fern
#

its actually super busted

placid fern
#

this is an example of when the in-game tooltip isn't going to calculate and show the damage because it's conditional

sour pine
#

I'm using ice shot as my main dmg skill, with herald of ice. Yes those are conditional, but how do you calculate that ? You just have to test it in-game right ? So what's the point of pob then, it could even push you towards the wrong direction for maximizing dos

placid fern
#

wow

#

just got DCd and lost my chaos run

#

instance just died i guess?

sour pine
#

For example my Crit chance is 50, so with ambush I'm critting 100% of the time against full HP enemies, but it doesn't take that into consideration..it just says lower dps

sour pine
placid fern
#

because it's conditional

#

POB will probably calc that

rotund trench
placid fern
#

i just personally dont care enough about min/maxing to investigate what its doing

rotund trench
#

Oh, it does have blind on winddancer

placid fern
#

fine for clearing but basically useless against bosses

placid fern
sour pine
placid fern
#

true it would vary build to build

sour pine
#

Also, do you know why I don't have enough spirit to use wind dancer, companion, and ghost dance ? I have 151 spirit, so wind dancer 30+ ghost dance 30 + companion is 39% of 151, so let's say 60, that's 120, less than 151 ? Why can I only use 2 of those and not 3 ?

placid fern
#

some support gems increase SPR requirements or have a flat cost

sour pine
#

Right. So my next question is : how do you increase your spirit that much to be able to afford it ? I have spirit on my body armour and amulet already

#

Playing deadeye

#

I don't see spirit passive skills on the tree

placid fern
#

there are nodes for companions that reduce SPR reservation

sour pine
#

Oh really? Which are these

#

Hm ok that's hard to get

placid fern
#

how much are on your body and amulet

#

and are you missing* any from campaign, act 1 king of the mists, act 3 ignaduk and act 3 cruel ignaduk

sour pine
#

I'm not on right now, but i have 151 total, so 91 between the 2 of those

#

That's totally possible, how do I check that ?

placid fern
#

on the world map

#

thats act 3 cruel

#

should get 100 total from campaign

sour pine
#

Hm ok I'll check later when I get on, but I think i killed that one

#

Oh really? Ok I definitely missed some then

placid fern
#

so it sounds like maybe you missed one

sour pine
#

I only have 60

#

Yes exactly

placid fern
#

yeah so you missed act 3 cruel

#

that should fix all your SPR issues

sour pine
#

Damn, that was such an easy fix...thanks for the tip ! I'd give you currency if I was rich but I'm broke right now, 5 chaos to my name

#

damn im pissed about that trial run i was gonna fight trialmaster

sour pine
#

Servers are so unstable

#

These last few days especially

rotund trench
#

what happened?

placid fern
#

i usually dont have any issues

#

i guess the instance died, i got booted to main menu and when i logged back in was in zigg encampment and trial door was closed when i went back to the temple

#

i was just sitting at the reward window tho

#

game was paused lol

sour pine
#

Are you also in eu ?

placid fern
#

no west coast US

sour pine
#

Hm ok strange

rotund trench
#

but you still have your keys?

placid fern
#

yeah no rollback occurred i still have the twilight that dropped

sour pine
#

Eu is sometimes unplayable, depending on the time of the day. Getting disc every 2 mins or so

placid fern
#

oh look another foiled widowhail

sour pine
#

Trialmaster is very hard compared to the trials bosses ? Should you use chaos inoculation for him or does he not do mainly chaos DMG ?

placid fern
#

yeah i didnt lose anything but the trial itself, i hadnt gotten to trialmaster yet

#

i think he mostly does physical and elemental actually

#

he was harder for me this league than last league but i think overall once you learn his moves he is a pretty easy fight

#

he doesn't have anything that is super crazy

sour pine
#

Never fought him yet, I'm anxious to go see him and lose my keys...I can farm trials pretty easily, but apparently he's another beast

#

He has super telegraphed attacks or sometimes you just get os withiout knowing how ?

placid fern
#

very telegraphed

rotund trench
#

I'm glad we were talking about skill gems. I realized I had 1 skill and 1 spirit I hadn't qualitied up.

placid fern
#

two of them he freezes time so its impossible to not see them coming

If im using exiled exchange do I need to open the game in window mode? Every time I open exile ex Poe2 is minimized. I cant open both at once

rotund trench
#

I don't use it, but I think I recall you hit shift-space or something like that to bring it up in-game. It should tell you what the keybind is.

sour pine
#

Is exiled exchange better than sidekick ?

rotund trench
#

Some people seem to prefer it, but it feels awkward to me. Maybe I just haven't figured it out. Sidekick is super simple and since I have two monitors I can just set the price popup to open in another screen. There might be ways to configure exiled that I haven't figured out though.

#

ok im in end game many different things in the smoke in this giant map. what do i aim for?

#

theres a reliquary vault like 3 things away from me, some some other stuff in the smoke different looking buildings

#

3 seperate directions.. 🤔

idle hazel
#

The first tower is an endgame boss, though you won't be able to do it any time soon, as you will need three keys from other maps.
The second is a regular Tower, it's a type of endgame map node that allows you to enhance the surrounding map nodes with Precursor Tablets - the game should give you one to use when you reach it, and explain how they work.
The third is the location of a Corrupted Nexus, that is how you obtain Atlas Passive Points, the game should have a tutorial quest leading you there.

celest lava
#

Are there any guilds?

#

Searching for players?

sinful mango
#

im confused wtf is this?

placid fern
#

The expedition?

#

One of the endgame mechanics/activities

sinful mango
#

@placid fern no how to activate it . all these things i cant press and detnator says i need something

idle hazel
#

You need to place the explosives first, not sure how that's done with the controller UI

#

I believe you need to assign the action first, though

sinful mango
#

also whats difference between corrupted, and normal maps? im right next to area with red stuff and red tower says curropted, and a map ...thing.. what are they called...the tablet thing that says irritated maps or something

#

🤔 ah ok... when i get on ill see, i know how to assign stuff so i will assign that action later

idle hazel
#

Map nodes that are Corrupted will spawn additional enemies and can have an additional modifier specific to them. Corrupted Nexuses, the map nodes that spawn in the middle of a Corrupted zone and have a tower-type thing next to them, are Corrupted areas with a boss that spawns after killing the last rare or regular boss. Completing a Corrupted Nexus is how you get more Atlas Passive Points.

#

Irradiate is a modifier that you can apply to map nodes via Precursor Towers that increases the area level of that map by one.

sinful mango
#

am i suppose to interact with a hand or something in this curropted map?

placid fern
#

think you are thinking about breaches?

simple trench
#

is this just a bug

#

because i can't start wave 16

placid fern
#

yea

simple trench
#

ah ok

novel crow
#

more waves would actually be cool

#

and I don't mean like the old 30 wave version, just yet another tier harder

#

unlimited tiers

placid fern
#

i still havent beat my first

novel crow
#

oh it's my favourite fallback thing, my build feels designed for it

#

checks splinters

placid fern
#

i might be in better shape actually now that i slotted a curse into my build

placid fern
#

might see some deflation with the poe1 league starting

indigo turtle
#

I haven't played in a month or more, have they done any changes to Armor?

#

or is it still poopy

idle hazel
#

In that time, no, there were no changes to Armour.

indigo turtle
#

What's the difference between ''Maximum Lightning Damage" and ''increased lightning damage'' ? Does "Maximum" only increase the number on the right? So if it's X-Y damage, only Y gets increased?

placid fern
#

yes

warm gorge
#

Will I get the emotions at the end or get nothing like with instilled maps?

placid fern
#

nothing

placid fern
#

anyone know why resistances change in my hideout v. other areas like temple of chaos entrance

#

im not using any auras or stuff that gets turned off in town

idle hazel
#

Some areas have a lower area level, the penalties are applied based on area level rather than campaign progression status

#

Trial of Chaos is in an Act 3 zone, so it has the matching resistance penalties. If you go into a level 80 Trial, however, it should have the same penalties as endgame maps.

placid fern
#

they need to move these things into their own areas once you hit endgame and change all the portal destinations

#

so tired of going back to ardura caravan

#

or just let me choose my own portal desto

spice stump
#

Can someone explain to me wheree is point for travel of sekhemas??????

placid fern
#

you have to take the caravan there first and unlock the waypoint

#

this can only be done after you defeat jamanra at the halani gates

rustic canyon
#

are they going to change new cores to be better and more valuable? Most of them are not even worth 1 exalt

placid fern
#

their value will change as new weapons and ascendancies are added to the game

#

accuracy is a good example, had very little value last league compared to this league because of amazons

thorny widget
#

guys can someone tell me if i understand leech correctly, if i have whatever 8% physical leeched as life and for example use a skill that converts 100% physical leeched as to something else leech is gone right? /wont work i mean

placid fern
#

yeah unless you have a way to get leech from another vector like amazon ascendancy can get leech from elemental damage as well as physical

thorny widget
#

yeah i just wasn’t sure if leech worked if the base skill has phys but converts it, thx

placid fern
#

if it converts 100% then yes

thorny widget
#

got it 🫡

#

also is there a way to apply poisons or chaos dot on enemies with big aoe? not like contagion or something, i am looking for a way to make almost all enemies on screen targetable for dark effigy or how the totem is called

placid fern
#

decaying hex support gem in a curse

#

i believe that will proc dark effigy

#

its a chaos dot scaling off INT

thorny widget
#

but needs selfcast right?

placid fern
#

yeah same as contagion

#

unless you slot it in like

#

cast on crit or something

thorny widget
#

i tried the ignite enemies in presence helmet with blackflame since effigy says chaos dot but the ignite converted to chaos dmg doesn’t count 😦

placid fern
#

yeah thats a weird one that doesnt apply

#

essence drain, contagion, decaying hex..

#

profane ritual

thorny widget
#

yeah

#

guess i’ll dismiss the idea then, i wanted a more convenient way so that i just would have to place the totems

placid fern
#

oooh

#

i just had ideaaaa

thorny widget
# placid fern

yeah i tried that too plus the shocked ground boots but idk how to make sundering itself strong plus it’s super slow

#

if they don’t die companions are helpful aswell

placid fern
#

i found even with every companion node on the tree they still die all the time

thorny widget
#

yeah

placid fern
#

maybe i just didnt do it right but couldnt get a companion build to work

#

im messing around with sundering now will let you know if i get it working

#

i think increasing presence area of effect will be important

#

it has a huge radius which is nice

thorny widget
thorny widget
#

actually draining the ailments from stuff wasn’t the hard part but to make it a build i failed miserably

placid fern
#

this should help

thorny widget
#

yeah

placid fern
#

im at 10k sheet dps

thorny widget
#

that was my idea aswell 😂

#

maybe i tried to early or effortless, i was just done with campaign

#

but the delay of the explosion felt clunky and i didn’t know what might reduce that

placid fern
#

i have a good bit of attack speed, it doesnt feel bad but im just running a t1 white map to get started

thorny widget
#

idk if something like reduced skill duration or stuff like swift affliction works kinda like on earthquake

#

skill and attack speed feld like they speed up the spear throw but the explosion didn’t feel quicker

placid fern
#

i am not sure

#

the tooltips show an attack for each explosion but its already short, .52 seconds

#

the pulse has it's own attack time so

thorny widget
#

yeah it’s not unplayable but it feld too slow to make mapping fun i feld like

placid fern
#

that makes me think skill speed does affect it but the base is already very short

#

i like it so far,

#

drop the pulse and just keep running

#

my build is jank and not optimized at all

thorny widget
#

or just get aoe instead of faster explosions 🤔

placid fern
#

i put martial tempo in will see if i can see a difference in explosion time

#

that was why i suggested presence area of effect

#

so you can ignite from farther away

thorny widget
#

yeah

placid fern
#

need to slot blasphemy and fire curse also

thorny widget
#

my idea was just using one of the ignore resistances items or original sin if i had one lol

placid fern
#

original sin is a good idea too

#

i think is the primal strikes build i was dreaming about

#

sundering for clearing and primal strikes for bosses

#

i need a lot more gold to finish respeccing

thorny widget
#

yeah something like that and/or trinity stuff idk

placid fern
#

trinity yeah

#

holy shit

thorny widget
placid fern
#

original sin too hard to work into the build cause of resists for now

#

but a sceptre with 78% presence area of effect makes if feel waaaay better

#

can drop the sundering much earlier

#

plus gets me the spirit i need for blasphemy

placid fern
#

at least for targeting a single element

#

i cap at 100 fire resonance so its only 15% increased damage

thorny widget
placid fern
#

only fire but going to experiment with thunderous leap and shocking leap, see how consistent i can get shocked ground

#

the shocking boots are an option but the movement speed is only 10% so big yikes

thorny widget
#

maybe the infusion supports and heralds

placid fern
#

it will create shocked ground every time it crits

#

im running herald of ash for 50% damage, will prob throw thunder on too since thats another 50%

thorny widget
#

with reversed element supports they can shock and freeze too

placid fern
#

oh shit

#

i can use Embitter so the Sundering itself causes cold damage

thorny widget
#

🤔

placid fern
#

if i can get the first sundering to freeze the second one will consume it?

#

oh wait

thorny widget
#

yeah that’s what i thought, else you could just use ignition, glaciation and conduction on a second sundering xD

placid fern
#

its fine

placid fern
#

clearing feels really good

#

been testing on black chambers cruel

#

doryani is slow and awkward but my passive tree is still borked and my amulets not annointed with serrated edges so

#

no jewels

#

rings only have flat phys

#

so much room here

placid fern
#

my spear is dog doo also lmao

thorny widget
#

do you use rising tempest? it should work if i am not mistaken

placid fern
#

no but i will lmao

#

just did a white t15 basically one shot everything

#

and thats with mostly not using lightning and just relying on fire

#

when i get to rares i started thunder leaping and they evaporated

#

if i could figure out how to get power charges into the build

#

my sceptre is also sort of meh, an omen one would be really good

#

or one of those new guiding ones with the shrine aura

#

i dont have a div to reroll mine sadly

#

havent even scratched the surface

#

since when are curses barrageable

willow jewel
#

I give up, I've travelled at least 5 screens worth of maps and I havent found a single "Corrupted Nexus" to progress the atlas quest line. I've triple checked the map half a dozen times, it's not there. I know what it looks like because I did the first one fine. F this.

placid fern
#

can you see the red glow in the fog?

#

that is a nexus

placid fern
#

finally sold my rite of passage

steel wolf
#

If I have Inc phys dmg on tree does that get boosted by Dmg as extra chaos.

placid fern
#

does the chaos read "gain x amount of damage as chaos"

steel wolf
#

Those are identical

#

This is a know it or don’t. I don’t think it’s a depends

#

Cause as extra is the same as gain as. Both are gains

placid fern
#

I'm asking about the affixes or what you are talking about because language is important

steel wolf
#

In this case it isn’t

#

Gain is gain

placid fern
#

and Im asking you to confirm homie

#

because in your original statement you dont say Gain

steel wolf
#

Dmg as extra is gain

#

They’re 1:1 identical

placid fern
#

okay good

#

glad you established that for the third time

#

to answer your original question

#

it depends on if you have physical damage on your gear OR what your skill gem is doing

#

if it's converting 100% of the physical damage, then taking increased physical damage on your tree won't do anything, so no additional chaos damage from gain

steel wolf
#

I never said convert.

placid fern
#

you didn't say what gem at all

steel wolf
#

I have 100 phys dmg on now shot. I have 100 inc phys dmg on tree. I have 100% gain chaos. Am I doing 300 or 400 dmg

#

Cause order goes: Convert > gain > inc.

#

So I’d assume 300. But I wanted to hear from someone more down in the weeds

placid fern
#

where is the gain chaos coming from, a notable?

steel wolf
#

A notable, an item, Idc

placid fern
#

but yes in that scenario you are gaining chaos damage from the phys

steel wolf
#

Could even be the support gem

#

Fk it I’ll test on pob

#

Now I’m home

#

ok as i thought answer is no it doesnt

#

increase goes after gain

placid fern
#

glad you figured it out

#

good luck dude

steel wolf
#

next time dont answer without knowing ty

placid fern
#

learn how to communicate and you won't get bad info

i like amazon for the crit

i think both would work tho

hmmm

im not married to the sceptre but id lose a lot of spirit

#

all of it actually

i need to test it on a boss and see how it feels, i think i might have overdone it on damage

i don’t think it’s enough with such slow skill

placid fern
#

also that old guy in the cemetary of the eternals, he sucks

#

its pretty fast

#

i just dont stop moving and immediately dodge roll after dropping the pulse

#

or thunder leap out of there

#

thats partly why i like amazon for this, everything is scaling damage up to a degree

#

thunderous leap doing 22k on its on

thorny widget
#

and then u die

placid fern
#

ive only died a few times 😛

thorny widget
#

actually if u go infernalist u can apply ignite with that dog and use alphas howl helmet 🤔

#

but the dog will die like companions i guess

placid fern
#

will the dog ignite everything reliably

#

this is pretty brain dead

thorny widget
#

if u give the dog aoe

placid fern
#

i considered burning inscription

#

but they nerfed it hard

thorny widget
#

but then u have to spam curse + sundering

placid fern
#

its terrible anyway, the burning doesnt start until the curse expires

thorny widget
#

damn

placid fern
#

at least with cursed ground

#

which made more sense so i could re-ignite

thorny widget
#

does spell cascade still work with it?

placid fern
#

you can use spell cascade or spell echo in conjunction with cursed ground to proc both burning inscription and impending doom

#

cause of the way it overwrites the cursed ground it forces an expiration proc

thorny widget
#

yeah

placid fern
#

hitting 135k when im rocking and rolling

#

almost died trying to pull up my gem menu

#

i tried freezing mark to proc freezes but its just not reliable and useless for bosses

fangs of frost is fine for bosses anyway

Is remnant collection affected by presence area of effect or something else from gear/jewels?

Hey, any advice for me how to "know" or at least, what to look out for when checking mercs? Are there any skills which are better than others, or anything else? Thanks a lot!

but thanks, I thought of 5k hp build, but wouldn't be able to use CoC, so gave up

that stupid thunderbird in trials of chaos is wrecking my shit

placid fern
#

only time i cant beat thunderbird is when he's the last boss in the run

#

skill issue?

i think its the arena

#

its just too small

edgy solstice
#

The small arena doesn't help, but he hits way too hard, way too punishing and poorly coordinates his attacks imo. If i didn't have a 1-shot build i wouldn't be able to kill him, and i'm not ashamed to admit it, lol

placid fern
#

yeah he has like three different moves where he jumps vertically out of sight and comes back down, its basically impossible to know which

#

one is a slam, one is where he does the insane wind kicks and then the third i think he just moves and doesnt actually attack

#

the wind kicks usually is what kills me

edgy solstice
#

Willing to bet 100$ the dude who designed him also designed Vaal Factory map. Designed out of pure hate and spite, lol

placid fern

lol

#

im glad its not just me then

anyone know how bloodmagic passive interacts with lich passive eternal life?

anyone knows good youtube for newbie player in poe?

#

i went with witch and weird combo and i feel like i need to set up a clean build and not this lol

#

Where can I find my stun threshold?

placid fern
#

unless otherwise modified it's the equivalent of life

modern adder
#

Oh. Yikes. Okay. So, say, plus 80 to Stun Threshold isn't much in endgame.

placid fern
#

nope

#

its one reason heavy belts are popular

modern adder
#

Do they give %, rather than a flat number?

placid fern
#

yeah they roll with an implicit 20-30% iirc

#

do i have to care about my build in the early game ?

Lioneye Bow:

Whats the point of barreagable stuff repeating itself only when no enemies are around? Is there a trick to using it?

idle hazel
#

Specifically, it's when there are no enemies in your Presence, the area of which can be reduced, and it's still something you can use as long as you keep a decent distance from enemies.

If there's a second tower nearby, is it possible to reirradiate an uncleared node that was affected by visions of paradise but already had its irradiation removed?

Is there a way for a character to leech with avatar of fire? Does the conversion happen after leech or before?

Conversion is always first

Gotcha so berserk buff and avatar of fire would not be great unless I could leech life somehow, thanks!

Paranoia is usually top pick for the best distilled emotion for juicing maps, right?

#

It grants more rare monsters. Greed grants more rarity. And guilt grants pack size. I believe Paranoia (rare monsters) is considered best, followed by Guilt (pack size). Mostly I'm just looking for confirmation on that -- does that sound right to anybody else?

#

Hello everyone, I also have a question about distilled maps, is there anything that maps with delirium dropping from monsters allow you to do that hand-crafted maps don't (for example, more delirious) or is it just that they allow you to get expensive distillations?

modern adder
#

I don't think so, as long as the non-distilled map has a mirror of delirium. Otherwise, the distilled map would drop simulacrum splinters and emotions, whereas the non-distilled would not.

past horizon
#

I meant the maps that already drop distilled with the Altas skill "Get out of my head" and those distilled by hand from a classic map

modern adder
#

Ah, okay. No, I don't think they can drop or do anything different than one distilled by hand. They might have unexpected instillations different than what might normally be applied by hand, but I believe they function the same way.

past horizon
#

Ok great, thanks! 🙂

Hi guys

Am I the only one having trouble searching for citadels?

#

They're pretty rare... If it helps, they're beneath the columns of light protruding from the fog of war.

I defered a good item in a ritual, now it's gone. What would cause it to dissapear?

modern adder
#

I believe deferring means it will show up at a later Ritual, not that it is guaranteed to appear in the next Ritual. It should still show up eventually. Usually it only takes a few to see it again.

idle hazel
#

Correct.

narrow marsh
#

if i have 50% lightning penetration and i attack shocked enemy, would it be counted as enemy having -70% lightning res?

placid fern
#

No shock causes an increase in damage it doesn’t affect resistances

modern adder
#

Do Rituals within a map get sequentially harder? I always feel like the third and fourth are substantially harder than the first and second. Did I miss somewhere that that is by design?

narrow marsh
modern adder
#

Oh! All the enemies from previous rituals reappear in each subsequent ritual in that map?

#

That would definitely explain it.

narrow marsh
#

if you want to remove that penalty/get more tribute, take the node reinvigorated sacrifices on the atlas tree. can get 7k-11k tribute

modern adder
#

I just want them to be easier. lol. I don't die often, but when it happens it's usually Ritual-related. I'll probably just stop playing them for a while until I'm stronger, but I seem to handle everything else just fine.

#

Or maybe I'll only play the first two Rituals per map. Hmm.

narrow marsh
#

yea its rough, some char/build simply cannot fight in enclosed spaces. need a lot of investment for a single char/build to do all content

trim scroll
#

is lightning arrow or elemental hit the better skill to use?

idle hazel
modern adder
#

Debatable. Reading isn't even barrageable.

#

One could say reading penetrates chaos, though, so maybe it's the best after all.

whats a good atlas passive tree to make currency im playing a bow build and i currently have 66 atlas points

#

im trying to look for an early game legion atlas tree

#

ghazzytv has one but it includes delve which i dont see the point in doing

#

does it add more mobs/loot to the map? it just gives sulphite i thought

Question:
Are there any new ways for Acolyte of Chayula to use it's instant leech with spell damage since the early access release? Haven't played in months.

drowsy fog
#

Is there a reason why delve materials (fossils and resonators) are so cheap this league? Normally I can make a bit of profit running them, but I'm not seeing the point this league since most are like 1C

Oops sorry wrong one.

How do people get hypothermia without meeting the 191 int requirement ? I see on their poe2ninja, they only have 120 int and get to use hypothermia ? Is there a way to make it cost less ?

That socket arrangement is from PoE 1. This is a PoE 2 channel. Fairshadow supplied the link to the After Acts Help channel for PoE 1 (twice) a few messages back.
