[ornate locust]

basically ive been trying to learn the game 14 hours a day so gathered so many random knowledge, but i still feel gear progression is so difficult. maybe because this is a craft league?
i especially cannot understand how people get 10 times my dps when my "best affordable upgrades" are only going to yield me 10%.

[placid stone]

Ah so I should have run all of mine on my 100% rarity deadeye instead of my 0% warbringer.

[arctic crag]

hmm do monsters drop items in logbooks in poe2? Idr. I tried in 0.1 and it was crappy.

[placid stone]

Runic monsters. Each logbook I've run now is an easy 30-50 exalt profit at a minimum

[ornate locust]

buying at 1 annul?

[placid stone]

Buying at 30-35 exalt

[arctic crag]

And your profit is basically dropped items? Why not run maps instead?

[placid stone]

Or dropping in maps, I'm dropping 5 logbooks every 10 maps.

[ornate locust]

maps is time consuming a lot of map crafting and luck to find tower overlaps and a lot of minmaxing

[placid stone]

The 50 exalt profit is from selling runic splinters. Anything after is bonus

[arctic crag]

ahh splinters, I was confused what was even the strat. Makes sense. It was awful in 0.1 where you had to pray you find the boss in a logbook. It was like 1/10 chance.

Ok then take what I say with a grain of salt and make sure to check wiki. If runic monsters in logbooks dropped runic splinters the logic would still be the same as poe1, you would want quantity over rarity.

[spring nymph]

Basically yeah, I just try to focus bosses as I got almost all my big currencys that way

[placid stone]

Quant would be on the maps and tablets, I was referring to rarity on gear.

[spring nymph]

But my real question is about juicing maps, and idk what to do after what that other person told me, what should i do :

1 :

Waystone Rarity
Tablet Rarity
2 :
Waystone Rarity
Tablet Quantity
3 :
Waystone Rare / Magic
Tablet Rarity
4 :
Waystone Rare / Magic
Tablet Quantity
5 :
Waystone Pack Size
Tablet Rarity
6 :
Waystone Pack Size
Tablet Quantity

Which one should i do if i want more high value currencys to drop ?

[arctic crag]

yes but you asked if it matters right? If your focus is to get higher number of things monsters drop, rarity should be irrelevant (as there is just 1 type of "thing" it drops and it is not tiered)

[ornate locust]

i think the day before you looked into my gear and ive got the upgrade for my boots finally, but now looking at the best affordable quiver is a 6% dps increase, bow is like 9%.
and the next step for my defence would probably be the chest which is like 50-100div and getting into spirit amulet and those timeless jewels etc. not affordable at current market price.
but you already hit end game, have way better dps and ehp than me, and you say you arent making even 1 div per hour... so im mega stuck at this knowledge gap of how is it even possible to progress without grinding, just like normal vetarans who can "finish" the game in 5 days.
as crafting mats are not common drops at all (i had 1 omen of light drop since campaign running all the pits, for instance).

[fierce horizon]

what would be ok map tier to run these kind of with map? should i saved them until i can run higher tier map or what min tier should i run them?

[placid stone]

The build I'm using does not have rarity on gear so I was debating if I should run on my other toon that has 100% rarity.

[arctic crag]

I looked into your gear? Sorry idr but I have been kinda struggling too, looks like sekhemas has been nerfed since 0.1. The normal jewels from the boss chests and even the time-lost ones are shitty and I have made nothing out of them, the only profitable things were the unique relics themselves, spectrum jewels. I was finally able to buy a HH like few hours ago

[arctic crag]

It shouldn't right? tl;dr you are farming for monster drops > but the things dropped do not have tiers and they just drop 1 thing > so rarity should be irrelevant. But again I am just saying based on how you told me logbooks have changed, so better read wiki to see if I am missing something.

[ornate locust]

there is a huge gap between my current gear and basically every single strategy people are putting out there to make money (without playing hideout simulator).
[although if u can get logbooks at 30ex maybe i can look into that]
my devastating realisation is simply that by theorycrafting on poe etc i cant really see the way how people obtained their ultra end game gear so quickly, seemingly not costing them a dime, then they can unlock all the viable farming strategy to snowball from there, like farming simulacrum bosses for instance, or doing boss carry services on tft.
there is essence farming that can run on white maps and is cheap to set up, but it requires difficulty 4 boss, which at the current stage 1 shots me. so i cant even do that...

the only other thing i can think of is to tower hop to sell paradise and castaway on tft, which if unlucky can easily go broke (because i cannot find node rarity/appear chance info online so...).

[arctic crag]

yeah min-maxing seems to be quite a jump. I wanted to buy a few things today but it was too expensive so I just settled for whatever I could craft for cheap. I am doing ritual atm as I am progressing maps and I think it could be decent, these omens are like consistent currency and once in a while you get the more expensive ones.

[ornate locust]

you have 3 times ehp and somewhat like 3 times my dps i think. it is not a 15% dps increase can get to, which is very weird (or just there is a huge knowledge gap somewhere).
but i did see you have the rare armour i might have to see if that can get me into essence farming with +4 boss.

[arctic crag]

FWIW the "richest" people I've seen in poe1 and now also in poe2 are the people who craft gear for profit (especially earlier into league), I tried to learn but all I did was to waste like 10-15d total with garbage returns. If you are good at it, you can give it a shot.

[ornate locust]

crafting this league is expensive because everyone understands it as a crafting league.
there is map crafting which i have been turning profit with.
in poe1 i was crafting flasks, very affordable and decent profit, also farming maps.
but poe2 doesnt have any of these xD tried tablet farming and failed to make more than minimum wage because there is no system to support it.

[spring nymph]

@arctic crag do you have any idea pls 😮 ?

[ornate locust]

2

[arctic crag]

Sorry I have to learn what's good as well. I am just technically starting maps tonight, and my goal is to get to 40 points asap. And I am doing ritual as I killed the bosses early into league and was able to get points onto that tree.

[ornate locust]

easy way to understand is that it is still the classic math of different multipliers scaling each other.
becasue you can only get quant on tablets and very limited atlas nodes, you want to grab every single bit of that.
then you just stack item rare.
another way is to think of it like there is 1 chest that drop divines, but your quant is too low it dropped 0 divines VS if you have enough quant it might drop 2 divines.

[spring nymph]

Allright

[spring nymph]

Yeah I guess so but all the values are quite hidden so since when i started I just go off what others tell me without really thinking much

[ornate locust]

also monster rare is less important i think because abyss rares diluting the multiplier base.

[spring nymph]

I need rares for my headhunter to be useful xD

[ornate locust]

😂 well with how long it lasts and the fact that you are not doing ritual every buff should last the entire map.

[spring nymph]

Basically yeah

Another reason to not focus on rituals i guess

Just to be sure for finding corrupt nexus, thats one tower with a corrupt nexus nearby right ?

[ornate locust]

i guess you guys can tell why im frustrated, like every bit of info online actually was made to helps you guys , who have already passed the gear score check 😅 and there is zero info on how to pass it.

[arctic crag]

Abyss feels very good, rewarding even during early progression. What do people do to invest into it? does the rarity (magic find mod) help with drops and pack size is irrelevant?

[ornate locust]

grab the chest node.

and desc. your map for the specific mods like pit always give reward or always lead to boss

[spring nymph]

Tbh theres a "soft cap" at a gear that costs maximum 10 divines which from what i saw is usually where people stop. I guess the amount of people that actually get insaenly good 1k+ divines gears are an EXTREME minority. Idk what you're aiming but yeah i guess thats how it works

[arctic crag]

gotcha, ty. Will take a few mins to read before I continue. It feels pretty rewarding even with no investment. I am just alching T15s and doing ritual atm.

[reef ledge]

maybe a dumb question but the only thing to raise chaos damage on a ring is just the chaos catalyst? reaver doesn't do it?

[frigid lantern]

what you have to pay to gear up to take on t 15s depends entirely on the build ur playing

minions for example cant get a decent amulet for less then 8 divines

or a + spirit +3 minion scepter for less then 15

[ornate locust]

i was just comparing to zed's pob the other day he sent me, 3 times of my defence and offence ish. and he certainly got GG gear already with farming bosses.

that is something that i should at least get to, to maybe able to solo the 150 splinter bosses. (100 splinter one is already a tiny bit uncertain right now for my defence).

i think that should be reasonable right, it is not like i want to do pinnacle boss farming or t18😂

[spring nymph]

I had a bit of trouble doing the 150 splinter bosses but tbh it's not that hard with ok ok gear, idk what build you're playing tho. Difficulty is so build dependant on poe2 atm

[arctic crag]

yea it is not bad, but I definitely take too long to kill king in the mists. I am playing a bad build because I hate Lightning Arrow and Rod visually and also the sound.

[ornate locust]

just the classic LA deadeye with some better leaderboard tweak.

[frigid lantern]

i have a 90 div minion setup that can barely do 150 simul and a 2 div deadeye setup that nukes it

[ornate locust]

i think if you sell those deadeye gear now they would be 200 div

[spring nymph]

;D

[ornate locust]

but would be great to know how you made it 😂

[arctic crag]

I can't do simulacrum well, I tried and herald of ice doesnt proc in it because there are no dead bodies that shatter from those minions.

[spring nymph]

So just to be sure, if i want to get to these two corrupted towers to get the 2 corrupted nexus my only way is to do every map until i reach these said towers right ?

[ornate locust]

yeah.. u need vision to grand project hop

nexus points isnt related to the tower tho

[spring nymph]

Wdym ?

I watched a video and someone said if theres a corrupted tower then there is c orrupted nexus nearby

[hardy olive]

so im using the website's bulk exchange to check some stuff. is there no way to see the currency exchange on the website?

[ornate locust]

yeah i mean you dont need to complete the tower,
only complete the nexus itself gives points

[spring nymph]

Ah yeah obv

[reef ledge]

i recommend just using the ingame currency exchange better

[reef ledge]

yes u need to run the maps till u reach the nexus

then you beat nexus and move onto other corrupted areas if u dont see any just look for towers to reveal the map to potentially find more corruption

[spring nymph]

Btw I dropped this it had a bright color so i assumed the filter meant it's a good item but i cant find it in the shop or in the currency exchange, whats its value and what is it used for ?

[arctic crag]

My latest pob is gonna be shocking, I switched to Pathfinder also my gear was somewhat irrelevant and could be a bit worse than mappers as I was mainly farming sekhemas until today.

[reef ledge]

what item

[arctic crag]

oops I thought I was replying to a comment, sry a bit distracted.

[spring nymph]

It didnt send for some reason

[reef ledge]

oh you use that on the treasury to the left of the starting point of mapping

and it takes you to a hall to get a guaranteed unique item

[arctic crag]

You get a free "foil" unique from it, with your luck you might get another headhunter, give it a shot haha

I got the minion shield and something else idr, both like 1ex items.

[spring nymph]

Lemme try it

[arctic crag]

@ornate locust what video were you refering to when you mentioned a video about selling services? I have missed out a big chunk of currency not selling trials carries, I should probably see how difficult it is without having to type a lot.

[ornate locust]

it was the castaway one about gold we were discussing.
trial is insta filled. a lot of people hate trial and doesnt have the setup.
the service i bought was basically the person already progressed to the boss, i tp in, he killed the boss, i pay.

[arctic crag]

GET OUT!! holy shit

[spring nymph]

I'm jk

[arctic crag]

I thought it was real

[ornate locust]

i think for vid you just search yt... multiples

[spring nymph]

I thought i was about to fight a boss...

[gaunt scaffold]

What are these Blue X's?

[ornate locust]

well, at least its a chance shard, 2x the price than if you sold it at 1ex xD

[jaunty crystal]

bosses or some keyplaces

[ornate locust]

empyrian put out a funny alc & go strat basically grabbing every rare that people was selling at 1 alc orb and making chance shards from them to ez profit xD

[gaunt scaffold]

they all look like this

they are like big boxes of gold coins

[jaunty crystal]

this map has these boxes as keyplaces... lots of gold

[gaunt scaffold]

OK ty

[jaunty crystal]

other map has random currency drop keyplace

[gaunt scaffold]

where do i farm the most shards? Just boxes of any kind?

[night spoke]

Is it me, or level ups in endgame are kinda slow? In PoE1 I finish around 65-66, and very quickly get to 80-s, and in t16 I'm around 90-92

In PoE2 I finished also around 66, but it feels much slower, I just got to 77 and it felt like slog to get there
(I don't die a lot, after I ended campaign I died less than 10 times)
Is it because I prefer to run waystones magic? Or what?

[spring nymph]

I'm never dying, currently 92 and it's SO long to level up.

IDk how it was before but its definetly slow lmao

[gaunt creek]

they made it faster till like lvl 95

[spring nymph]

Is there a way to know if a unique map will give me atlas point ?

Or if i already did this specific one

[zenith sigil]

it should tell you in the tooltip on altas when you hover over it

[spring nymph]

Hmm okay so i have none in range f

[bold mirage]

just finished act 4, what is exactly interlude? a direct continuation?

[sweet wyvern]

they're short temporary acts until they finish the rest of the acts

before this league, you had to repeat acts 1-3 on a higher difficulty

[warped stream]

anyone know why my arc's magnitude is 100% but orb of storms is 66%?

[inland juniper]

How do some builds run ghost dance, rhoa mount, herald of thunder and wind dancer all at once with only spirit on amulet?

[fickle hawk]

map is done but i can't move forward?

[sour pine]

Does anyone know what's the drop rate of Rakiata's flow in Jade Isles ?

I'm 0 for 7 tries.
I heard some people dropped it first try with a waystone t6, but that's not really relevant to an average.
I'm running a LOT of rarity on top and still haven't dropped it. Found several divs in the jade isles, but never the good stuff from the boss

[grim falcon]

guys i am killing abonimable yeti but it dont drop the icy tusk any help?? i cant get the +2 points

[spring nymph]

Whats the realmgate boss that is a multiphase one with 15 waves ? So i can avoid it

Guys, can we still able to get "haste aura" beast in campaign post nerf? or it has to be in map ?

[echo marsh]

what's an anomaly map ?

[dawn quail]

[hushed trench]

Does it matter what element "gain % of damage as extra" I get on wand? Iirc in poe2 you cant double dip?

[echo marsh]

oh i see ty

[analog summit]

Will the Divide price increse more? 220ex now.. Whats you experience with the Last seasons? Later the more expensive?

[dawn quail]

Exalts lose in value as people make more and more endgame gear

[analog summit]

Okay, so just Change and dont Hope the price descreases again in weekend

[plush swallow]

is this boss bugged or am I missing something

[pseudo barn]

It always helps to provide context about what kind of bugs you are experiencing.

[plush swallow]

Well, nothign is happening

The boss is underground or somethin

like you can see from the image

[sour pine]

To my knowledge you can get it from the tusk monster in infested barrens act 3 troubled camp, or the frozen mandibles ant in interlude (in ashen forest or something like that)

[rapid raven]

Is passive points from campaign bugged? I checked and redid every zone again and all the icons are grey and completed but I'm still missing two passive points, it's stuck at 22. Help plss

[plush swallow]

did you explore every area

[rapid raven]

yeah I checked every map and redid them

[plush swallow]

I am not sure there might be a quest reward in the end game town, did you walk around?

[zenith fractal]

after the nerf still can ?

[rapid raven]

yeah

[rapid raven]

for anyone using search function, to check passive points you missed, open map (U) and click Quests on top right and see from there, if you killed the yeti in interlude 3 but didn't talk to Hilda in town, it shows that you completed the passive point quest but false

[pseudo barn]

Not bugged, use this list to properly double check

[tawny steeple]

How do you add Gemcutters to Elemental Expression on Monk? It doesnt do anything

[pseudo barn]

You add it by clicking the gem then the skill. In terms of what quality does on this specific skill open the skill advanced info menu and make sure to check all thr sub menus in there.

[tawny steeple]

Yea but it doesnt do anything

[pseudo barn]

Sometimes quality doesn't effects the skill itself but for example a projectile of the skill.

[pseudo barn]

That's what the wiki says

Are you 100% sure this line isn't in the ingame tooltip?

Or did you not properly check?

[tawny steeple]

yea, sorry i meant it doesnt allow me to put in a gemcutter

[pseudo barn]

I see

[tawny steeple]

From the Invoker ascendancy

[pseudo barn]

Yeah nvm that question

I was thinking about support slots

I'm not aware of any other way to add quality to skills.

Try a relog if you haven't yet.

[tawny steeple]

Nope. doesnt work

[pseudo barn]

Shot in the dark, did you corrupt the skill with a vaal orb?

Not sure if that's even possible for ascendancy skills but if it is then that might be the reason.

[tawny steeple]

No, its not a slottable skill, it automatically went in when i got the ascendancy

cannot remove it either

[pseudo barn]

I suggest to also ask in the invoker channel in #1308715058716610580

[sour pine]

Yes still can. Although the spirit reservation for the ant is bugged, it takes half your spirit instead of 25%

[zenith fractal]

alright, thank you. 🙏

[tawny steeple]

Uh...

[pseudo barn]

Is this you trying to post in the invoker channel or trying to dm me?

[tawny steeple]

The invoker chat

[pseudo barn]

Then no idea, gonna need to ask support or Google.

You should be able to post there.

[tawny steeple]

Odd, the other church of invoker worked

[amber pasture]

what is the most efficient strat for farming for waystones? I say this becasuse sustaining t16s requires a whole 8 maps per run due to currupting t15s

[pseudo barn]

Trading

[half frigate]

You cannot quality those skills up

Any skill gained via an ascendancy cannot be GCP'd

Quality still exists on them in case you have certain modifiers like gemling legionare for 10% quality, which would affect that skill

[dreamy gale]

Hello. If I need a certain armor now, say 800ES + resists, if this item is 2Div now, will it get cheaper or more expensive 1-2 weeks from now? How will prices evolve during a league?

[steady flower]

how does golden charm work? does it work on the rare i kill or only works for 1sec after i kill the rare and doesnt affect it?

[half frigate]

God items typically get more expensive while mid tier crafts can get cheaper, but the general trend is that things grow in price overtime

[cedar flint]

does the item level of precursor tablets have any effect?

[amber oyster]

holy! what these ping spikes? I have tried mulltiple servers near me. Still the same. Tried other online games and they have no issues

[gaunt creek]

when you change the server try to ctrl+click on the play button

[torpid wave]

any written map juicing guide here?

[dreamy gale]

Monk: Storm wave skil. It gets blocked / nullified by any floor geometry, it's almost unusable in thight spaces / fissures /forests / etc. Can I go around this somehow?

[warm saddle]

Assuming capped res and some chaos res, what other defensive minimums should I aim for to get up to T15? Is there a generally accepted minimum max life + ES/Ev/Armor to aim for? I'm trying to understand balancing survival against damage as I progress gear but guide posts for what to aim for would be huge.

[atomic verge]

Is it better to do delirium at the start or at the end

[torpid wave]

Depends on your class

And build

Some build can go with 0 res

[warm saddle]

I'm not talking about specialty builds or specialty defensive setups, I know those exist. I mean just a standard defensive stats layout, what's an effective health that's generally expected into T15? We can agree that 500 health isn't enough and 600,000 might be overkill. So, there's some in between that satisfies "you weren't one shot every step."

[median escarp]

2-2.5k life and 75% all resists is like the baseline of what to aim for for maps

evasion/armour/es depends on your builds

some builds dont need to invest in life because they focus on es instead

[gaunt creek]

hmm on my sc character Lich ED contagion I had about 10k es in T15s , max ele res , max chaos res

[warm saddle]

Is that chaos too? Chaos res seems super hard to stack

[gaunt creek]

early on yes ,later not really

[median escarp]

getting some in early maps is good

but its not like you need to cap it to survive like the elemental resists

[warm saddle]

Ok that's super helpful, thanks guys!

Also, is there a good primer on gear? I've read alot and watched several videos to understand tiers, stat groups, etc, but what I haven't understood is when do you settle into your more graduated pieces? Is it strictly gear dropping with T1 and T2 rolls or is there a certain ilvl threshold the gear has to satisfy before it's worth considering? I think ilvl is what's tripping me up even though I understand it's not at all like Diablo gear levels. But, could an item drop in say T8 that is a long term gear piece even when compared to drops in T11 or T13 or something?

[raw wolf]

highter ilvl = highter rolls

[gaunt creek]

check the affix ilvls on https://poe2db.tw/us/Modifiers

[pseudo ocean]

fucking hasted pig with lightning aura and mana drain

that was an evil evil list of modifiers

[warm saddle]

If I understand, you mean once the item has rolled let's say a T1 stat, a higher ilvl piece would generally have a better chance at rolling the high end of the range of that T1 stat, or higher ilvl has a higher chance of rolling a T1 stat period.

[warm saddle]

Oooooh that's super helpful

[gaunt creek]

I would recommend this crafting video if you want to craft https://youtu.be/l6rXUYS9oXw?si=yir8MlOT-39BLBMl or just understant items better

[raw wolf]

opportunity to obtain a higher tier

@warm saddleits not hard, just check the poedb and use greater of perfect orb to get higher tiers on high ilvl

[warm saddle]

Maybe that'll help with fundamentals for items, I feel like I'm 🤏 this close to actually understanding gear, how it drops, etc.

[warm saddle]

I think I get it now, I think. Is the ilvl a hard cutoff? As in, if ilvl 75 opens the highest tier, ilvl 72 could never roll that higher tier, it would always roll the range below?

[raw wolf]

yeap

https://tenor.com/view/escribe3-gif-20768900

[warm saddle]

Holy shit I understood lol

[gaunt creek]

for example on a sceptre if you're playing a minion build , for +2 to all minions ilvl 25,+3 ilvl 55 ,+4 ilvl 78

[warm saddle]

God I feel like I just finally understood something so fundamental to playing this game lmao

[raw wolf]

and i u planning to craft, dont rush, double check everything

because you can screw up badly and lose your currency

[gaunt creek]

ghazzy in that video shows craft of exile 2 ,you can even practice crafts on that website ,use the currency and craft , if you find an item in game you can ctrl+c copy past it into the website and practice what you want to do to it

[warm saddle]

Yea, I'm going to run maps for a little while and just look at stuff that drops. That db site is huge to know about now, so I'm not rushing things. Now I can actually understand not only the stats but why the stats rolled how they did and what it could roll going forward. My god that feels like a weight off me that was making this game hard lol

[raw wolf]

This should be stamped on every video guide lol a simulator to understand without destroying the bank is actually massive.

Also, really big thanks to you guys for taking the time to explain piece by piece, it's actually going to completely change how the end game feels.

What are some ways I can use Power Charges in Essence Drain Contagion? I have been using Profane Ritual in my Spellslinger, and it gives me Power Charges, but they don't do anything for me.

[gaunt creek]

lich has a node in the ascendancy , price is power ,consume a power charge to deal 40% more dmg

[forest tree]

is there any way to remove the black box with map mods when you use the overlay map? im not of fan of losing 20% of my screen just because im using the overlay...

[gaunt creek]

no , you can just minimize it

[undone merlin]

projectile acceleration 3 say increases to projectile speed also apply to damage. then says adds 40% projectile speed. expected to see a dps increas on lightning spear but it didnt seem to do anything. can someone explain to me what this support does?

does it apply 40 % damage but doesnt account for it in game stats?

[pseudo ocean]

guys how do you filter for superior items in the trade tab

like the ones that spawn with +quality

[gaunt creek]

with a regex

https://poe2.re/

[dull moss]

how many floor there is in second ascnedancy of trial of sekhemas ?

[arctic crag]

I think it is not working, I tried to pay attention vs some boss and the amount of damage with and without that support seemed the same. It wasnt a very good test as there are other factors such as crit etc but I dont think it is just a UI bug.

[gaunt creek]

wait for points 3-4 , 2 floors

[dull moss]

oh

okay

[arctic crag]

Maybe it is better testable on PC, try it out and let me know @undone merlin

[dull moss]

bruh

[gaunt creek]

for points 5-6 , 3 floors and 7-8 , 4 floors

[dull moss]

omg this is absurdly difficult

[gaunt creek]

I need to do it for points 5-6 so 3 floors , I will have about 15 k honour if I do it now , I still need a key , I'm hcssf

[dull moss]

im at 2k5 loool

i have a second key if you want to do it with us

[raw ivy]

is it possible to change implicit on an item?

like on a base armor

[arctic crag]

vaal corruption can

[gaunt creek]

that's nice of you but I can't I'm hardcore solo self found

[arctic crag]

It depends on what item and if it is a rare, unique etc. Search for poe2 corruption outcomes in the wiki.

[dull moss]

hahahah good luck then

[undone merlin]

im not particularly good at testing stuff. cant chew gum and walk most of the time. will just get me killed

[arctic crag]

ok well, we will just assume it is a bug then

[hardy olive]

so im not sure why only the big gorilla boss with the pillar instantly one shots me. does it do chaos damage? (i have 1.6k life 1.6k es and 75/75/75/31 res with 70% dodge and 40% deflect) i feel like i can't ever outrun it on my rhoa with 50ms total

[median escarp]

it just does a lot of damage

physical damage

but it does more damage the closer you are to the boss

if youre talking about the big slam

[hardy olive]

i mean it leaps towads you and slams and i just instagib

im trying to outrun/get out of the way of the big slam but his homing seems way faster than my 50% ms >.<

[arctic crag]

you can just hug him and dodge roll around his legs or just stay on his back side if you are using rhoa, you are talking about the normal gorilla right? (the same as the one in jungle in acts)

[hardy olive]

rhoa can't dodge roll >.<

[arctic crag]

What is why I said or

[hardy olive]

no im talking about the map boss big guy with the pillar

yeah i think he was in one of the jungle acts

his homing seems way too fast for me to circle him

[arctic crag]

yea he is pretty safe if you stay super close to him and stay on his back all the, the further away you are, the harder it is.

[hardy olive]

ill try that next time

[sour pine]

This is pretty much true for almost all of the bosses by the way

[vale elbow]

how do i get this?

[mighty mountain]

if "monsters pierce 15% resistance" and I have 90% res (but capped at 75%), do monsters deal extra damage? or no?

[vale sun]

If i dont have ataluis bloodletting yet (cause it is so expensive) can i use something else in the meantime?

[waxen marlin]

What's the max level I may need to equip an item?
84?

[sweet wyvern]

you'll be treated as having 60% res

[vivid wing]

what happens when you fail a map? It looks like I can rerun it, are the bonuses that were there stripped?

[pliant grove]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFE6ETjgAKU
5 div per hour

[keen valve]

where is the list of affixes for gloves? https://poe2db.tw/us/Gloves#GlovesItem

[pliant grove]

not there

go to modifiers tab, then choose what kind of gloves

[gaunt creek]

depends on the item base ,for some items lvl 80 for other lvl 60-70 ... , ilvl is important you can check item bases here https://poe2db.tw/us/Items

[pliant grove]

80 is the highest ive seen

[waxen marlin]

I think it's based on the mods or something.

[pliant grove]

nvm theres a level 84 requirement haha

no, theres 90!

[waxen marlin]

👀

Can I see?

Oh, there's a filter for that.
Yeah, 90 is the maximum.

[pliant grove]

high roll on the implicit

[vale sun]

Can i use something different on lightning warp instead of ataluis bloodletting? I dont have that money to buy that yet

[mighty mountain]

so there must be a bug... deferring is supposed to be discounted about 90%, but it's only discounted to half of the discount (original cost is about 120% of discount, IIRC), so this means I'm only getting about a 60% discount or something?

[pliant grove]

theres a mod that increase defer cost

[mighty mountain]

i dont have that mod

[pliant grove]

it's right below

[mighty mountain]

that increases favor cost, not defer cost, and only by 15%

the math still doesn't work out. 0.13 * 1.15 = ~0.15. Deferral cost should still be a small fraction of future discount

[pliant grove]

2808 + 2808(0.5) = 4212 defer cost normally

[mighty mountain]

defer cost is normally double the discount? i thought it wasn't that much 🤔

in any case, 4212 * 0.13 = 547... So where tf is 1362 coming from??

[pliant grove]

1362/4212 means your discount is 67%

[mighty mountain]

discount should be 87%... :/

[pliant grove]

lol is this a double effect

87 down to 67 wow, feels like double effect

can you show the maps around how much it normally discounts

[mighty mountain]

wdym

like this?

i also have the 50% reduced from atlas

and all 4 of these

so that's 32% increased tablet effect

[pliant grove]

oh wait it shows 19% increased

i though 10%

cuz the screenshot was cut

so 87 > 68, now makes sense

[placid verge]

According to Craft of Exile, there are no desecrated prefixes on armor. Is this accurate?

[mighty mountain]

oh, 19 cause 15% increased by 32% from tablet effect, right. So the favors increasing in price is a double whammy? not just increasing the cost of the favor but also directly reducing my favor deferring discount? that makes no sense

Like the favor will already cost more to defer if the item costs more in the first place, why would they reduce my "reduction"

it's not the same type of effect so it shouldn't "add" together

[pliant grove]

yeh its an additive effect, thats why i slot a defer discount with that unique tablet
if unique increses by 14% i must put 14% reduced defer with it on the tower

[hollow sparrow]

there 2 of them in sealed vault https://i.imgur.com/e2RgQK7.png
where to use them? i cant find object to place them

[pliant grove]

dunno if intended or just wrong tooltips

[mighty mountain]

that's so dumb that it's additive, it's a totally different category!

Anyway thanks for that news. I wouldn't have thought those would add together, at worst multiply

[gaunt creek]

check on https://poe2db.tw/us/Modifiers , I see them on craftofexile too, make sure you're on poe2

[wicked basin]

Do we know what determines the skill level of a skill granted by a weapon? I thought it was ilvl but I see lvl 20 skill weapons at ilvl 81 but lvl 18 skills at the same ilvl

[placid verge]

It also doesn't show any

[gaunt creek]

the desecrated prefixes are the normal prefixes

[placid verge]

ohh

ok thanks

[waxen marlin]

Hmm, I'm rarely getting anything from Corrupting waystones. 🤔
Is it worth it?

[pliant grove]

ok for me

[gaunt creek]

T16 if you corrupt T15

[pliant grove]

1/10 i get a 16

they sell alot

i usually buy a bunch of uncorrupted for 1ex, then corrupt them all

[raw ivy]

wait, do i have to redo trial on max if ive already done it once but want to change? I cant use a low level barya?

im abyssal lich but wanna be normal lich lol

[sweet wyvern]

you have to do the trial that'd give you your current amount of points

in that case, you can change back at the same place you changed to abyssal lich

[raw ivy]

Oh, I need a new kulemak invitation?

[gaunt creek]

hmm it's probably just the highest trial , I don't think you can change at kulemak

[sweet wyvern]

https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Abyssal_Lich#Unlocking

[raw ivy]

ah yeah i need to do whole kulemak then

t.t

[junior dune]

Why can’t I pick up the hammer of kamasa, is this thing bugging ?

[sweet wyvern]

it won't drop if you already got it this league

[thorn badge]

ugh, keep getting stupid Blooming Field map bricking my atlas

[dull moss]

what should i do with my uncut skill gem that are low lvl ? Are they going to be usefull later ?

[junior dune]

OIC, thanks

[sweet wyvern]

no. level 1 uncuts can sell for a bit tho

[mighty mountain]

Does anyone know if you do a map with rituals that isn't "cheaper to defer" (like you're just traveling on random nodes on the map), if you DO the rituals, but never open the screen, will your deferred items still count the time that they "showed up but you didn't buy or defer them"?

Like do you basically need to avoid doing all the rituals to prevent your deferral expiration timer from counting up?

[dull moss]

on the player market or to the PNJ ?

[sweet wyvern]

pnj?

to other players

[icy steppe]

my build lacks 20 spirit
how can i get that?
mu gear is pretty much set are there any other ways to get that spirit?

[dull moss]

NPC*** im french my bad

[gaunt creek]

you get 100 spirit from the campaign and you can get spirit on amulet and chest and sceptre ofc

[sweet wyvern]

https://poe2scout.com/economy/uncutgems

[dull moss]

i need a stash tab merchant to sell items to player ?

or i use currency exchange

[gaunt creek]

yes to use the new trade system at ange and sell items you need a merchant tab

old trade system player to player is premium tab

[dull moss]

cant i just use currency exchange ?

[latent wagon]

How do you get back to the ziggurat refugee after you leave?

[civic nacelle]

do u guys just vendor your excess tablets

i have no idea what to do with all these things

[pliant grove]

$4

[pliant grove]

reforge them

or just dump them on merch tab if you lazy

some mods are crazy expensive, if you search a bit

[gaunt creek]

go to act 4 and from there use the wp to act 3 , the portal to the past will be there

[dull moss]

i cant put my gems inside this tab

so i need to do currency exchange

that's it ?

[pliant grove]

i think

ange is a better async option
except the slots part

[sweet wyvern]

you can use currency exchange for gems

[raw ivy]

idk what to do, i did kulemak after like a million tries. NPC to change was not there. :/

[mighty mountain]

so am i correct that I can use an omen of whittling + omen of dextral erasure + chaos orb to 100% guarantee it replaces the life leech?

[stoic wigeon]

I like running logbooks, any stats I should pay attention too?
Your Maps contain 8% increased number of Runic Monster Markers <-- Does this affect runic splinters?

[scarlet turret]

which place is the best to try to hunt for animal companion? any advices on biomes at atlas?

[mighty mountain]

and from there I can dextral necro + jawbone + ulaman/amanamu/etc to replace either onslaught or the new chaos one?

[gaunt creek]

copy paste the item in craft of exile poe2 and try that

[mighty mountain]

idk what that is

simulator site?

[gaunt creek]

this https://www.craftofexile.com/?game=poe2

ghazzy has a video about crafting and he's using the website too

you can just use the omen that gets rid of the desecrated mod when you use an anul

[mighty mountain]

oh is that cheaper?

i dont understand, where can I select omens?

i know what they're called IDK how to select them anywhere

i can't see a place to add them as part of the craft

[gaunt creek]

Omen of Light

[mighty mountain]

it has no ability to add omens alongside chaos orbs... that makes no sense

[gaunt creek]

check the video on the right

[mighty mountain]

oh, i guess its not importing properly?

does it not automatically select the prefixes/suffixes?

aand now it won't let me select the essences wtf?

it's not drop only lol

this site is so confusing

[marble plume]

Where do these types of socketables drop from?

[pliant grove]

i got a tecrod gaze somewhere

not sure if citadel boss, or just a random boss

[gaunt creek]

https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Tecrod's_Gaze

and Farrul's Rune of the Chase can drop anywhere can drop anywhere

[latent wagon]

ah, thanks

[scarlet turret]

meet the Sally, she is a lil bit shy but tryin her best

[undone merlin]

i thought it was supposed to drop another map from the last rare? i just got ripped off.

[marble plume]

ty ty

[stiff crown]

which bow bases should i put in my filter
to be on the lookout for?

[pliant grove]

not always, but last rare does have the highest chance

[stiff crown]

also why are my t15 maps dropping t14 waystones

[pliant grove]

never happened to me

t14 drops t15 tho, low chance

[pseudo ocean]

man temporal bubble is so meleephobic

[stiff crown]

just happened to me twice now in 2 diff t15 maps

[pliant grove]

maybe corrupted infusion?

[undone merlin]

im throwing lightning spears. but having trouble with breaches. need a way to help cover my back. as a sorceress i had snake pit ring but i dont know if there might be some unique that might help me?

[pliant grove]

the nova projectile

[hollow sparrow]

which catalyst use on breach ring with flat phys and flat light?
enchance phys? enchance attack?

[undone merlin]

support gem?

[wintry aspen]

im not seeing any citadel lights in my map. that could about about some graphics settings?

[undone merlin]

lightning spear doesnlt allow for more prjectiles. need something to make it chain or something like it

[opal dagger]

why can't I use a waystone on this silent cave map? all the nodes connected to it were already done

[dull moss]

hmmmm i think that i have a little problem, my boss won't spawn lol

[bleak osprey]

can someone help me farm gold with maps u can get all the loot

[sweet wyvern]

just sell all the rares you find

[keen acorn]

what am I suppose to do if the crow boss doesn't phase in maps and becomes immune

[bleak osprey]

i cant kill anything 🥀

[balmy hinge]

Are any of the unique tablets in particular worth using over another for juicing maps?
(Aside from visions)

[stiff crown]

should i be putting t16s when i find a citadel?

[mighty mountain]

ARGH. I'm so freaking tired of GGGs awful terrible manually plugged in "ratios" for market pricing.... now that we have a "buyout market", we REALLY need them to live-update currency ratios.... This "annuls are listed as if they only cost 25ex" thing is pissing me the eff off. THEYRE 75 EX. But they're sorted as if they're 25. That means a thing listed for 2 annuls is showing up AHEAD of items listed for 60 exalts, when 60 exalts is cheaper than ONE annul

These ratios should be updated at least once an hour, automatically, to maybe the 5th or 10th percentile of the market value of that item (to prevent outliers interfering with the ratios and sorting)

[zinc mica]

hello, can someone help me with a question? if i have "sunder my enemies" (critical hits ignore non-negative enemy monster elemental resistances) can i curse them with elemental weakness? does that curse do something?

[sweet wyvern]

if it brings the enemy's res below 0, then yes

but if you bring enemy res below 0, then 'sunder my enemies' becomes useless

[zinc mica]

ty

[viral stratus]

what is the ideal waystone desecration people want?

[snow garnet]

"Area is overrun by the abyssal" or something like that

High tier, good mods, etc.

[pliant grove]

and iir with high value i guess

[graceful oracle]

best charms for King In The Mist? He doesn't do anything except Physical and Chaos right?

no ailments

?

[rotund trench]

If you have an essence drain DOT on an enemy and hit it with another with a weaker dmg, will the weaker dot replace the stronger original one?

[sweet wyvern]

should be that only the strongest will affect them

[night zinc]

BUG! So, this is the second time I've encountered this bug. The last three nodes I've completed before this one have reverted to attempted (you can see from the screencap that there is no path from the other completed nodes on the map to where I am now). Posting here to make it easier to link the image in the bug report forum

[rotund trench]

ok, but when the duration on the strongest runs out will the weaker one kick in and do less damage for it's remainder? Or will the stronger be extended? Or will the second essentially do nothing?

[sweet wyvern]

if it works like most debuffs. if the enemy has a debuff dealing 100 dps for 2 more seconds and you apply a second dealing 50dps for 4 seconds, after the first runs out, the second will deal 50dps for 2 seconds

so, they each run their own duration but only the strongest will deal damage

[balmy hinge]

is undying hate really rare or am I just unlucky? 15 kulemak and none yet.
Fighting at max str.

[rotund trench]

Makes sense, so many can be present, but only the strongest at any given time is applied. I assume contagion would just transfer the current strongest with a fresh duration to the next target?

[undone crypt]

is missing 1% cold resistance a big deal

[sweet wyvern]

not really

[quartz cradle]

sorry for my friends audio coming through in this clip but why could i only damage the mob with my concoction? poisonburst is hitting, toxic growth doesnt seem to either. vine arrow > conc is the only thing that worked

the mob has ES and "damage taken from minions first" and part of me thinks it was just a really unlucky timing of their Minions entering their presence (if thats even how the mod works)

[undone kettle]

Does anyone know if any of the options on the "essence type selector" node on the Atlas tree apply to Essence of Horror? (or the other valuable one, blanking on the name) - I assume not cus it doesn't have any of those tags, but just checking

[vivid kiln]

what do I do with this?

nvm I figured it out

[naive gulch]

plz tell me this is just a visual glitch and this nexus isn't totally inaccessible

[grizzled grotto]

most likely a glitch. try clearing around it and make a bug report in case it does end up being inaccessible.

[fading timber]

Whata the purpose of this area?

[grizzled grotto]

advancing in the story

[sweet wyvern]

you cant go through there yet

[quartz cradle]

is that a hybrid lightning spells + minions build thats sick

[grizzled grotto]

two of your quests are telling you to go back to the crossing, so you probly missed talking to someone

[fading timber]

Yea its my own build

[quartz cradle]

best type of build

[restive pond]

Does mana tempests damage bonus snapshot on long duration skills or do they stop getting the bonus when I leave the tempest?

like, orb of storms or firestorm

[grizzled grotto]

if it's cast once for a duration or applied as a DOT, they use the damage that they had when you were in the tempest.
if they are channeled like incinerate, the damage would go down after leaving.

any new casts of the spell or applications of the DOT after leaving the tempest would go down

[restive pond]

So the whole "standing in the tempest" penalty can be kind of disregarded if you're dumping out some 5+ second long skill like firestorm and then leaping out of the storm

[grizzled grotto]

yea, or if you're using a skill that doesn't have a mana cost like incinerate or certain inherent skills from weapons

[restive pond]

just trying to think up a silly orb of storms as the main skill thing

[grizzled grotto]

fun fact, you can also use a sigil of power staff in your 2nd weapon swap for another damage boost

cast sigil and charge it up > throw down mana tempest > spam main skill > profit

[restive pond]

but what if galvanic field wand and spellslinger wand

for more funs

the electrocute "curse" staff is cute too

[grizzled grotto]

if that'll give you more damage then go for it

[restive pond]

makes me sad I seem to need to use the godawful +1 limit amulet if I want this idea work

[grizzled grotto]

isn't this a negative?

[restive pond]

that makes you harder to freeze

[grizzled grotto]

for a 3rd curse? or can you not get whispers of doom?

[restive pond]

I want the orb of storms limit high enough that I can cast them at maximum speed and still get infusions

without cutting its duration down so low that it loses zaps

[grizzled grotto]

so there's an amulet that gives +1 orbs? or like +1 to lightning skills?

[restive pond]

there's an amulet that gives +1 limit everything

that's just its only good stat

I guess the life isn't literally meaningless but you know

[grizzled grotto]

the dex also isn't entirely useless if you have a skill or two with a dex req. can take a little pressure off needing it on other gear. but I would think a +4 spells ammy would be better

[restive pond]

Maybe I can't even reach the limit I need to be able to get infusions

[grizzled grotto]

wdym?

you get infusions when the orb expires

[restive pond]

if I'm spamming OOS it will replace orbs instead of expire them, unless my limit is high enough

[grizzled grotto]

You don't gain anything by spamming orbs. you gain by spamming other skills in the presence of the orbs. you're ideally throwing down orbs to limit then spamming something like spark.

[restive pond]

OOS triggers OOS

[grizzled grotto]

that seems odd

[restive pond]

its a spell, that's all it cares about

[pulsar mural]

Anyone know if consuming different stack of infusion matter? for e.g on arc it's 200% dmg when u consume infusion - what if u had 3 infusions? does it beccome 600%?

[restive pond]

it only eats one infusion per cast

[pulsar mural]

but there are times when i have 3 infusion and it eat all of it?

[restive pond]

are you invoking arc?

[pulsar mural]

manual cast

[junior hornet]

unleash support?

[grizzled grotto]

I noticed it eating all infusions as well

[pulsar mural]

ah yes unleash

let me removve unleash n try

[grizzled grotto]

without unleash in my case

[pulsar mural]

without unleash it only consumes one at a time yea

[grizzled grotto]

tho it was fire wall eating all my lightning infusions in my case and I only used those skills for leveling

unless spell cascade is supposed to eat extra?

but it's still one cast so Im not sure if it should be doing that

hmm, deli splinters are going into the fragment affinity rather than the deli affinity

isn't there supposed to be an expedition stash?

[restive pond]

they only did that for poe1 when they made expedition artifacts untradeable

[grizzled grotto]

they really need to port the fragment tab and expedition stash

[void spire]

Was there a change to map device where if you don't die you can reuse portals or am I imagining things?

[spare fern]

yeah portal only close on death now

[light agate]

i really hate how insane fubgun fans are

siege crossbow bases are now 14 div for a good one

they where like 1 2 days ago

[grizzled grotto]

what determines the tier of maps doryani sells?

[flint grove]

does omen of chaotic rarity also change desecrated mod?

[quartz cradle]

Highest you've done, up to t14

[grizzled grotto]

odd, cause I've done t8 and he's selling t7

and I did a few t7s before and he was selling t5

[flint grove]

since nobody answered. yes, i tested it.

[rotund trench]

Did you level up within that time?

[grizzled grotto]

I just leveled. does he only refresh on levelup still?

[rotund trench]

I thought he refreshed on level up. But I thought I saw something like you mentioned, but I'm not 100% sure I leveled up. Maybe you got to kill a boss at a given level or something.

[grizzled grotto]

I'm almost thinking it's something other than levelup, or maybe as well as levelup, cause I killed king of the mists and his shop refreshed to t6s

[rotund trench]

Hmm ok. I'm not sure. Btw, wiki says (as a 0.2 version history note) he sells one level lower than highest level.

[grizzled grotto]

that's probly it, and probly why he only goes up to t14

[spare fern]

even if you do t16 it still only goes up to t14 though

[grizzled grotto]

last I knew, t16 wasn't a real, droppable tier but rather a corruption outcome, so it makes sense. unless they made uncorrupted t16s droppable in 0.2.

[spare fern]

no still corruption outcome only but that doesn't make it not real and t15 can drop as whites so I figured doing a t16 should let him sell t15 but still only t14

[grizzled grotto]

I feel like that would make the lore reason for the existence of t16s be that you are infusing the most possible corruption into a waystone that's already corrupted to the highest extent by the environment of Wraeclast, which is supported by the waystones becoming more engulfed in corruption as they go up in tier. Even moreso than Doryani's experiments that would lead to his stock of waystones.

[dreamy pollen]

why do on-death effects are not very visable in delirum?!

I died to random effect i did not see and where there no other mobs on screen

[grizzled grotto]

because deli needs to be extra hard to see in for some reason

welcome to PoE

that's been an issue ever since it was introduced in PoE1 3.10, and I guess there's not much of a way around it when a major aspect of deli is the fog

[dreamy pollen]

i mean if they put dodge button to let us dodge stuff. Let us see the effect to dodge. But no. You got to get killed by random bs.

[grizzled grotto]

need more defences I guess

I'm not sure why they pushed the game into an ES stacking simulator for PoE2 either, but that seems to be one of the best ways to protect yourself if you can get a bunch of it alongside res, armour or evasion/deflection, and block

[uncut cloud]

Question about expedition logbooks, which modifiers are worth hunting for. Im currently just focusing on additonal chets markers.

[dreamy pollen]

I am health stacks so the damage must one shot my very large hp pool while i nuke the entire map

[gaunt scaffold]

why where the distilling mods removed from the game?

[grizzled grotto]

don't you r-click to apply those?

oh right rclick opens the distilling window

yea, watch out for supports that add spirit cost

mana multi doesn't affect spirit but some add a flat spirit cost and I think heightened curse support has a reservation multi

[grizzled grotto]

also, the button to instill seems to be on the bottom of the window and you seem to have cut that off from your screenshot

[dreamy pollen]

it really strange teh suriviablilty in POE is so all or nothing type of deal. It is either you are completely untouchable or you just ded to a single hit.

[grizzled grotto]

above your mana globe

[tribal mesa]

first time doing logbooks, any tips how should i approach this?, the exes are totems and i have no idea what they do

[grizzled grotto]

that's how it's always been. used to be much worse in poe1 before the community got outraged enough at on death effects, but there are still alot of those that are widely hated.

they still have a long way to go for visibility in both games

[dreamy pollen]

I am not getting what is killing me right now. This game really need a damage report or something.

[rotund trench]

This waggle ED/contagion build that uses Ravenous Swarm, it doesn't seem like the swarm itself is doing much damage at all on it's own. Does the poison itself boost other damage or something?

[grizzled grotto]

If you can get like 5-6k ehp (life + ES), at least 75%+ all res (inc chaos), 70% or so armour or evasion/deflection, and manage to fit around 70-75% block, you should probly be good in most cases as long as you're not going too ham. You'll want more ehp if you're melee. If you can raise your res to at least 85% on top of that and get closer to 90% armour or evasion/deflection, you should be virtually immortal, but those are more stretch goals. In many cases, you may not even need block.

[grizzled grotto]

you'd have to take a look at your build to see if there are mechanics taking advantage of enemies being poisoned. aside from that it probly just adds a bit to the chaos dots that contagion carries.

[dreamy pollen]

if you talking about surivablilty, in my case. I can't get any more resistances or could even put block on my build as it would destroy the build completely. (missed using a shield though)

[grizzled grotto]

what build are you running?

[loud fable]

Hey guys is there a regex for tablets?

[grizzled grotto]

partially here, but aside from that you'll just need to figure it out I guess

https://poe2.re/tablet

[loud fable]

yea dam i need to have the code myself

[grizzled grotto]

it's just searching for what you want to see

[civic nacelle]

what's the standard waystone prep?

6mod -> throw on whatever 3x delirium bullshit you can afford preferably rare mobs -> vaal and go?

[grizzled grotto]

I think ghazzy did a vid showing that you can 5mod > desecrate for some good juice

[civic nacelle]

yeah i just kinda cba with the abyss desecrates; my laptop can barely handle abysses as is without juicing them up

also i sort of just dislike them

you have to wait around for so long at each pit or do heavy backtracking

[grizzled grotto]

fair

[civic nacelle]

i feel like each map takes forever when there's too much abyss stuff going on

but i probably should if it's in like triple tower area

[grizzled grotto]

ttho not sure what you mean by waiting around unless you just need more damage

[civic nacelle]

cus they come out of the pits hella slow

one by one instead of altogether

and if there's like a single random straggler that was behind a rock somewhere, the second pit spawn doesn't happen

[grizzled grotto]

they come out all around it as far as I can tell

[civic nacelle]

yeah but it's not instant, it takes a lil bit for them to all come out

that's not so much the part that annoys me so much as how long it takes to actually get that second wave to come out sometimes

cus a single missed white abyss mob delays the whole thing and you gotta backtrack to find it

kinda wish the second wave would just come if like 90%+ of the initial mobs were cleared

[grizzled grotto]

what build are you playing?

[civic nacelle]

selfcast nades

[grizzled grotto]

that seems like something that should be making them go quick. my ed-/con just annihilates them as they pop up lol

[civic nacelle]

i do kill them reasonably quick, it's just really laggy and slow relative to the rest of the map

cus rest of the map i zoomzoom around, abyss pits i have to wait around/backtrack a fair bit for

like, every aspect of them has a built-in delay

the second wave spawn is delayed, the monsters themselves coming out is a bit delayed, the chest rising out of the ground is delayed

[grizzled grotto]

maybe dropping frames if it feels slower. for me they seem to all come out over a couple seconds.

[civic nacelle]

when you get an abyssal depths you have random 2 minute jumping and getting up animation every time

the whole process feels like it has unnecessary sluggishness built into it

it'd feel a lot smoother if the chests just popped up right away, and you could skip the roleplay animation once you enter maps or somesuch

[grizzled grotto]

yea, still not the best optimised. hopefully they make alot of progress on that before release.

ah that part. the mobs come up in seconds but yeat the chests do take a moment.

[civic nacelle]

ya i'm like wiggling around waiting to see if a chest pops up or it's a dead node

hoping i'm not wiggling on top of random ground DOT i can't see under all the dead bodies

[grizzled grotto]

should be able to see it come up. I think there's a frame of some sort that comes up slightly before the chest.

[civic nacelle]

i'll watch for that next time and see if i'm missing it

maybe some of my wait time around abysses is just skill issue

[civic nacelle]

i was wondering a bit moreso about the last part though

i haven't bothered vaaling my maps thus far

because i just didn't make it a habit

am i supposed to vaal every map?

[gray surge]

am I fucked

[grizzled grotto]

try looking further out

"nearby" is notoriously vague with GGG, and apparently can be pretty far out in some cases

[grizzled grotto]

vaaling every map is a high level strat you can do. it gives you a chance for your t15s to either upgrade to t16s or downgrade to t14s, but it's like a 25% chance to change the level when vaaling and ~50/50 to go up or down, so ~1/8th chance for a t16. it can be a bit worth it if you have alot of maps to gamble and/or the currency to build up a pool.

[civic nacelle]

so pretty much when you have a big enough t15 base that you can prep a ton of waystones to run mostly t16s without annihilating ur map pool?

[grizzled grotto]

a big part of endgame juice in poe2 is towers tho. if you can get a bunch of overlapping towers and cram a bunch of bosses and mechanics, that's gonna give you a bunch of juice on top of the maps

ye

cause it's pretty much the same 1/8th chance to get a t16 or a t14 from a t15

Tho I admittedly skipped 0.2 so there may be some juice methods I'm not aware of

[civic nacelle]

my bum ass just hit 0 t16s and 5 t14s on a full inventory corrupt godbless

skilled gamer reporting for duty 🙏

[grizzled grotto]

welcome to PoE

[tribal mesa]

the icon only means the type of artifact that will drop right? they have no influence on logbooks or other stuff
So is still better to for the one with more quantity right?

[grizzled grotto]

in 1 they also had 4 different bosses, but I think it's just Olroth in 2

I should really do some expeditions so I can find Dannig lol

[civic nacelle]

if you have deli on a map, and deli on the waystone

does the map's deli mirror just not appear?

and if so does that mean you can't get the distilled emotion drops at the end?

or am i just super blind and missing the mirror

[gray surge]

wdym?

I already cleared one of them

was wondering if there is any way for me to visit it

guessing no

[grizzled grotto]

if you already cleared that node then you need to find another

[gray surge]

No I cleared a different node with a whirlpool

The pic I posted is the 2nd whirlpool I found

[grizzled grotto]

if you're trying to find a way into the swirly node, you need to run random maps in the general, undefined vicinity of it to gain access

[gray surge]

Ah forgot about that mechanic

Thanks

Is it the map that has a 10% chance of dropping the lineage supp that inverts positive ele res?

[grizzled grotto]

and according to what I've heard, there is no indicator for which maps have the thing to access the whirlpool. which is terrible game design.

[snow garnet]

I find lush isle is the best for splinters

[grizzled grotto]

I have no knowledge on where the lineage supports drop

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

if that whirlpool is the Jade Isles, then it does sound like that's one of three lineage supports that drops there

holy jesus there are alot of these

[gray surge]

man I hate the random crashes

just crashed halfway thru a ritual

[civic nacelle]

ok what, can detonating expedition thingies damage your character?

[grizzled grotto]

did you just stand on a bomb?

[civic nacelle]

i haven't died from like lv 90-96, randomly got instant oneshot as soon as one of the remnants exploded

no dmg mods on map no rares, just 100-0'd

[civic nacelle]

ya, i thought they didn't dmg ur character?

i have zero idea what i died to

[grizzled grotto]

idk if they do lol. I suspect there might have been a mob there but I haven't done much expedition in poe2

[civic nacelle]

the white mobs came up as usual but i got instant 100-0'd before they even swung

and almost no dmg mods on map

wtf

i wish there was a death recap

[grizzled grotto]

did you maybe nerf yourself to death?

[civic nacelle]

wym

[grizzled grotto]

I know there are alot of different negatives. I'm not sure if there's reflect but I've seen a few ways you can make the logbook impossible in my limited experience with them. tho that was mostly making things immune to all damage, not sure what all could potentially insta-kill you

[dawn quail]

Skill issue killed him

[civic nacelle]

ya i mean i didn't pay much attention to the negatives so i'm fine chalking it up to skill issue

[grizzled grotto]

do they have clusters of barrels in some logbooks??

[civic nacelle]

wasn't in logbook, was just expedition in a random map

[grizzled grotto]

those can catch you

[civic nacelle]

literally the 1st or 2nd remnant

[grizzled grotto]

ah ok

[civic nacelle]

i just got instapopped

[grizzled grotto]

so shouldn't be as nutty as a logbook

[civic nacelle]

like my fault ig but i have zero idea what happened

[grizzled grotto]

maybe you did a no regen map

[civic nacelle]

o no it was an instant 100-0

like not fast, just instant

[dawn quail]

You sure there wasn't a runic hiding amongst them?

[grizzled grotto]

or one that had ele weakness and - max res

[civic nacelle]

what's a runic

[grizzled grotto]

runic monster

[civic nacelle]

nope, it was like the first 2 remnants rather than one at the end

is a runic monster just a rare

it just looked like a white pack to me

[grizzled grotto]

maybe, not clear on all the mechanics

[civic nacelle]

what's a runic?

[dawn quail]

I dont really know, some expedition Modifier that really hurt

Can be on a white monster i think (not sure)

[civic nacelle]

hm, maybe

[grizzled grotto]

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

[civic nacelle]

i'll watch out for it from now on

dying at 96 blows

[dawn quail]

Yeah but could have always died at 96 in HC

When is the right time to start vaaling waystones for tier16?

[grizzled grotto]

when you have enough t15s to try to amass a large pool of t16 or you have the currency to buy a bunch of t15s in bulk

[dawn quail]

Ah so a but longer then gotcha

[grizzled grotto]

like I said earlier, it's ~1/8th chance for either t14 ot t16, so out of 100 maps you're likely to get 12 t16s. Unless you are juicing enough that you could afford to use omens of corruption to make it more likely. but I think that brings the base chance for +/- from 25% to 33%? so ~16% chance for t16s.

[white flare]

Why didn't I get the second set of atlas boss points for this? Map is 80 (T15 + Irradiated), and I used a 6 affix waystone (even double checked that I only had 1 portal)

Does it have to be a corrupted T16 now?

[grizzled grotto]

shouldn't. should just need to be monster level 80

[white flare]

so weird. oh well. Guess I'll try again this afternoon

[gentle kettle]

why my charm 0/0

[white flare]

permafrost /s

[grizzled grotto]

do you have anything that increases the number of charm charges per use?

belt, passive, ascendancy, any other gear

[gentle kettle]

iam using ingenuity belt

[grizzled grotto]

did you get one with increased charm charges used?

[grizzled grotto]

you want that to be reduced

yes you did lol

[gentle kettle]

so why the other charm is fine

[grizzled grotto]

thawing charm has base 40 charges per use and 40 max charges. you've made it cost 42/40 charges

the fire charm (ignite? res?) has I think 30 used and 40 or 60 max

so you didn't brick that by going from 30/40 to 31/40

[gentle kettle]

aha oky i will buy another belt then

ty

[grizzled grotto]

you should go for one with 2 charm slots as well

[turbid kernel]

What exactly does "Complete a Tier 3+ Corrupted Nexus" mean? Because that's my objective, I got to a Corrupted Nexus, did it with a tier 5 map, all the corruption around it is gone, but the quest objective isn't completed

[grizzled grotto]

it should mean that

does doryani maybe have a quest marker for you?

[gray surge]

Any Tecrod undying hate should work for the regen from life cost on skills right?

🙏 waiting for one to show up for 8d

[turbid kernel]

Nope

Oh

Never mind

Apparently the boss just takes a while to drop the items and I portalled out before they dropped

That's... dumb, but at least problem solved

[dawn quail]

16%

[grizzled grotto]

as long as the undying hate has tecrod, it should change keystones to that passive yes

[gentle kettle]

is this oky

[grizzled grotto]

17% reduced charm charges gained could hurt a bit

but for a max roll on the ring buffs, maybe worth it? I'm a bit pickier.

[zenith sigil]

gotta be picky within your budget

[grizzled grotto]

I still wouldn't go for that much reduced charm charges gained within my budget lol

[gentle kettle]

i guess this better

[grizzled grotto]

yes, that's much better

[gentle kettle]

thank you

[grizzled grotto]

a whole div cheaper and 1% off the ring buff cap

[sharp merlin]

whats a temporal tether? found 1 in a map

[grizzled grotto]

probly something to do with a unique map nearby

[sharp merlin]

oh yeah, a boss inside some sand it looks like

thanks

[grizzled grotto]

for the sake of my curiosity, was there an indicator on the map?

[sharp merlin]

kinda

[grizzled grotto]

seems like haunted mansion has wisps and the whirlpool has nothing

[turbid kernel]

Do you only get one shot at the Deadly Map bosses (specifically Jade Isles) or can you redo them if you fail?

[grizzled grotto]

haven't heard about the sandstorm yet

[grizzled grotto]

depends on the map you put in

[sharp merlin]

theres 3 adjacent maps next to the storm

i did 1, theres 2 more

[grizzled grotto]

3 directly adjacent maps doesn't seem to mean anything

[zenith sigil]

same as other maps, depends on the waystone you put it, but special maps can have a min requirement for tier and amount of affixes on the waystone

[sharp merlin]

the one i just finished had one in it, and theres no other nearby maps that indicate anything

i clicked on this thing i circled and it fell over, then the sandstorm let me see the thing that says "three"

[grizzled grotto]

if the map you just finished had a temporal whatever in it, then I think it should chain onto a neighbouring map to the one you just did, or at least the wisps did, tho you cut off the neighbouring map so I can't quite tell

[grizzled grotto]

unless that slightly different design on the bottom is the indicator, which I guess could be vague but possible

[sharp merlin]

ah

here's a bit zoomed out

[grizzled grotto]

did you find a temporal tether in each of those 3?

I thought you said you just found your first

[sharp merlin]

i only found the first, that was just the path i followed

the red

[torpid wave]

How profitable is trail of chaos this season?

[zenith sigil]

i think the sandstorm is just 3? random maps around the sandstorm, not like wisps for mantion wher eyou chase them

[grizzled grotto]

very disappointing if they have two more entirely random unmarked mechanics on the atlas

[dawn quail]

Is it possible to miss that tether? Or karui beacon?

[grizzled grotto]

as long as it's the same as the hengestones, they should pop up when you kill the last rare in the map

[hollow pumice]

what am i doing wrong? not getting any waystones, the npc ran out of waystones and I have no where to get any at the moments

[grizzled grotto]

doryani refreshes his stock when you level

[hollow pumice]

RIP still got 30% left

[grizzled grotto]

and you can buy them on trade if needed

[hollow pumice]

whats the normal price nowadays, i was doing tier 3

[grizzled grotto]

or in desperate situations, you could probly go back to the campaign and try farming for some t1 stones

you'd have to check

[hollow pumice]

oh sounds good

i felt like waystones drop way less comparing to standard league or I just missed few patches

[grizzled grotto]

for building up maps, you probly want to go towards the rare mob nodes as well, like Rising Danger and Twin Threats, so you're getting more loot. I'm not sure if that's where I'm getting all my maps from but I've been net positive so far, esp with buying some from doryani and even tho I'm upgrading them in the reforge table

having Constant Crossroads already is good, but you should probly respec at least one of the rarity nodes after it to get The High Road for chance for higher tier waystones if you aren't already at t15s

[hollow pumice]

alright i will check those out

thx buddy

[grizzled grotto]

the quantity of waystones nodes up top that you have are probly an alright idea. you should also be putting more mods on your maps and hoping for more waystone chance.

rarity is just rarer items. so you'll have a chance for a magic, rare, or unique chestplate over a normal one and I think it may affect gold drops some.

[odd basin]

guys how does people teleport directly to 4th level of Sekhemas w/o doing the first 3 and carry other people? Is there an item you can buy to skip the first 3 levels and port directly to boss?

[grizzled grotto]

you run the first 3 then leave and invite people

[placid stone]

What are some good builds to try out that are speedy and can blind run most maps?

[zenith sigil]

probably any of the bow deadeye builds tbh, i dont think there are any mods that would brick them, some are annoying, but thats about it

[grizzled grotto]

spark is a good one I think

I've seen it done on sorceress and there's a new build on witch that uses a new unique crossbow for free casting

GGG posted the latter as build of the week, you can probly find it on the website

[zenith sigil]

oh yeah, that one from build spotlight

i love seeing builds like that

[junior hornet]

isn't it unintended interaction?

[zenith sigil]

i dont think so

[grizzled grotto]

ofc lol. they never intend for builds to be that powerful and it's probly gonna get nuked next league.

or at least that's how it seems

[junior hornet]

the "sacrifice" on support gems doesn't work, but "sacrifice" on the crossbow works, so it must be the crossbow that is bugged

[zenith sigil]

if they did a video about it, they are probably fine with that interaction existing

now nerfing it if its too strong will likely happen tho

[grizzled grotto]

no way that interaction survives into next league, but I guess we'll see

[zenith sigil]

i mean fair, we are in beta so anything can happen

frankly i expected more drastic balancing with mid league patches nerfing/buffing stuff in the beta

[grizzled grotto]

they tried doing that early on and the backlash was pretty bad

I think they really wanted to do active balancing but the playerbase just wasn't gonna allow it

[zenith sigil]

yeah, i'm surprised they bend on that, but i guess its cos so many ppl bought into beta they felt like they cant fuck up their fun too much

[grizzled grotto]

so I cleared (1) and activated (3), which previously had a line connecting it to (4)
then cleared (2) and it activated (4) >_>

[zenith sigil]

yeah atlas has been weird at least since league start

[grizzled grotto]

these lines are buggered lol

[bold mortar]

does item rarity on equipment or waystones affect vaults of kamasa?

[grizzled grotto]

hopefully (4) is actually connected to the tower

[sweet wyvern]

you can buy trials in progress

[grizzled grotto]

changing the large cursor to extra large and having a size in between would be nice

Small > medium is like double and medium > large is like quadruple

[zenith sigil]

hmm i forgot you can do that with trials, i wonder if i could make money with that

[odd basin]

these Test of Time comes with implanted Relics? Also how can you tell till what room they are?

[placid stone]

I've got a 96 LA and a 94 Ballista warbringer and kinda bored of the maps.

[zenith sigil]

fair

[placid stone]

That also means I need to sell my kidney to set it up lol

[zenith sigil]

maybe instead of a good build, try making somethign silly

[placid stone]

I did see Rue posted a meme build

[sweet wyvern]

relics already applied (theirs that they ran with). i think it starts at the start of the floor

[zenith sigil]

yeah, fairly sure you can't leave the trial mid floor, so its always at the start of the next one, and you can tell by the name "Test of Time"

thats the 4th floor

[odd basin]

so you need to do the whole 4th floor or you directly start at the boss?

[zenith sigil]

nono, you do the first 3 floors

and exit at the start of 4th

and sell the barya

if you can exit after each room instead of after floor, then yeah, you'd probably want to go up to the room before boss or so

[vale elbow]

why do i lose spirit whe ni weapon swap?my passive tree is unchanged, all my auras are disabled on both sides

aw nvm

[zenith sigil]

spirit on a weapon?

[grizzled grotto]

attributes on one weapon set and not the other?

[zenith sigil]

or stats and you then cant wear chest ?

[vale elbow]

im stupid

i forgot i deactivated herald of thunder on a weapon set and it blended in with my other lightning skills so i didn't check it

[zenith sigil]

happens to all of us

[vale elbow]

haha thanks anyways for offering the help

[winged jay]

hello why are some belts always highlighted on the minimap and have a beam of light where they fall? can i do something to them? can i sell them as a base or something? im a noob

[zenith sigil]

in the case of a rare like this, is usually just being evaluated as having better chance to be valuable

on filterblade.xyz theres a section where you can paste the item in and it tells you what rule applies to it

[vale elbow]

its because the filter set them up that way. the thoughut process of the guy who made your filter was that jewelry like belts rings and amulets are hard to find and are scarce, so might as well identify them and see they're good (usually they're garbage)

[zenith sigil]

^

yeah, scarcity is also a consideration in highlighting sutff

[winged jay]

understood, thank you so much for the explanation guys!

[zenith sigil]

also you might want to update your filter every now and then

neversink updates highlighting tiers based on how economy changes

[winged jay]

good call, i will do it!

[brave folio]

i have killed the abominable yeti 4 times now and it hasnt dropped the tusks(item that gives +2 weapon passives) what do i do

[zenith sigil]

are you sure you are missing those 2 points and its not different 2 points ?

[brave folio]

i mean it shows on the minimap that its colored

idk maybe

ill check

[zenith sigil]

yeti icon has been kinda buggy on the map since league start

[brave folio]

oh

[analog atlas]

when doing the trial, where can i check my honor resistance?

[zenith sigil]

when you open the floor map when you are picking next room, there are some icons at the bottom of that UI

one of them will show your res in tooltip

[grand saddle]

Do maps have a end like poe1 or do they just keep going?

[zenith sigil]

they have an end

oh wait you mean individual maps, or like the atlas ?

[grand saddle]

This

[zenith sigil]

technically it probably has an end, but practically probably unreachable

like delve in poe1, it does have an end, but only 1 person ever reached it ¯_(ツ)_/¯

cos its at depth 64000 or so

[sweet wyvern]

STEVE

[analog atlas]

ty mate

[grand saddle]

What do these mean? Victorious, Deadly, Cowardly

[gaunt creek]

the fragments you get at the end ,you need them to fight the boss and get points 7-8 of the ascendancy

[grand saddle]

Thx

So um can I respawn at the last checkpoint and be good?

[gaunt creek]

hmm I don't know , never tried that

[grand saddle]

It's bugged out and won't let me start the trial

[spring nymph]

Hey anyone could explain me whats the thing about overrun by abyssal maps ? Someone said it allows you to run a map twice. Hows that working ?

[fresh junco]

is there a specfic boss to farm for kalandras touch? or is it just a conspiracy and only elites get gifted them from ggg xD

[dusky star]

just be lucky

[fresh junco]

Ofc why didnt i think of that

[dusky star]

it's so simple, really

[fresh junco]

thanks for advice im just going to go get kalandras a HH and a mirror now that i know the trick

[dusky star]

of course, the more you juice/the more efficiently you play, the more chances you get to be lucky

[fresh junco]

yeh i mean im just not lucky this season unfortunately been really bad with drops

[spring nymph]

Hanbi do you know about abyssal overrun by any chance ? : #2┃after-acts-help message

[analog atlas]

isnt abyssal overrun means the map will have a ton of abyssals?

[spring nymph]

No idea

[hallow orchid]

Abyssal to kill for abyssal chest. Never seen an abyssal depth from it though

[spring nymph]

Okay i just found the item that lets you run maps twice but damn its expensive

Almost 4 divs

[undone merlin]

they are a bit rare

[shadow yarrow]

which ring would u guys say is better

[undone merlin]

u use cold dmg?

[shadow yarrow]

i convert to do lightning and cold

[undone merlin]

id say the breach ring but dont take my word. im terible at gauging these things

[shadow yarrow]

i was thinking the same, it gives more dmg output too

just needed a second opinion

thanks

[undone merlin]

yerp

[blazing storm]

Is liquid paranoia the best to use to juice maps?

[chilly meadow]

do this is breach stone or breach stone is the different item guys?

[blazing storm]

It is the breach stone, you consume 50/100/150 of it to fight xesh. The amoutn consumed is based on the level you're fighting xesh

[chilly meadow]

150 is only t3, how do i can fight t4?

[blazing storm]

I think thats the max tier now, you get 2 skills from doing breach on regular map then theres 3 levels of xesh

[ornate locust]

has anyone tried essence farming? ive been getting only 1 or 2 mobs with tower buff.
when i was traveling to set up the essence chance towers i got 4-5 natural essence mobs???

[silk schooner]

the t3 league bosses you start from realmgate are 1 death per try ?

[chilly meadow]

what's the meaning of tier on weapon guys?

[pseudo barn]

Higher tier items will only come with higher tier mods.

[chilly meadow]

oh ok thanks so much

[pseudo barn]

Be aware that there is a difference here

[chilly meadow]

what do u mean?

[pseudo barn]

On the item itself like in your screenshot a higher number is better. But when looking at the mods on the item a lower number is better.

[chilly meadow]

oh yeah i know that

[pseudo barn]

Ok good

[chilly meadow]

just wonder what's it meaning

[gaunt creek]

means that the lower roll affixes will not roll , no (6–10)% to fire res , stuff like that

the new greater , perfect currency works the same way

[spring nymph]

So whats that thing exactly ?

[junior hornet]

"kulemak's invitation" what do you thing will be waiting for you

[spring nymph]

I mean I guess it's for a boss but where ?

[fresh junco]

anyone else noticed that fps drops are back for abyss ive been fine past like 4/5 days and now any abyss is just so laggy

[junior hornet]

well of souls

[spring nymph]

Thought it was only for desecrating items let me check then

[junior hornet]

I mean it's written right there

[spring nymph]

Wym ?

[neon thorn]

Hey all whats the best way to spend my 5 atlas points? I have no clue on where to put them

[spring nymph]

Theres a lot of names in the game ngl

[junior hornet]

[spring nymph]

Is there a way to avoid being teleported by one of the modifiers stolen by Headhunter ? Just died in a veyr juiced map bc of it...

[undone merlin]

they need to put in a bit of effort removing conflicting mod combinations. dying in impossible situations isnt fun
