[solar walrus]

Maybe diddy kong can fix it

[woven smelt]

negative

[crisp timber]

whats the best boss dps without temporalis?

[haughty wadi]

how high can gemling strength stackers get

like 800?

[static plinth]

I saw 1050 once

[haughty wadi]

that sounds like 100div+ budget stuff

[static plinth]

I mean, yeah, you should've specified if there was a budget

[haughty wadi]

but it's a good frame of reference, thanks

[tawny flare]

Working on an ice strike monk, anyone following any guides for it? Looking at rax or DonTheCrown for leveling

[dense elbow]

Node power is broken in PoB2 for everyone else, right?

[empty torrent]

guys, in pob, can i copy/paste skills gems?

[strong frost]

Looking to start making my endgame monk build. My budget is 5-10 divs.
Is Flicker viable or is ice strike just soo much better?

[quartz robin]

I couldnt for some reason. its also error coding on minions

[empty torrent]

maybe we're doing smth wrong?

could anyone copy/paste skills in pob? if so, can you explain how?

[thorny token]

you cant paste skills to pob

you can copy paste within pob but thats it

[quartz robin]

you just CTR C then V items into it but it wont do skills for some reason

[thorny token]

yea because the game doesnt have copy feature for skills only items

[empty torrent]

fucking stupid shit man

ggg can't make one endpoint by the time a full 3rd party solution for something they should have made ingame is released

how?

[tidal copper]

That's a very damned shit

[hasty vale]

Does anyone know how ‘increased chance to inflict ailments’ works? Specifically if I have no investment into ‘chance to ignite/shock/freeze’ would elemental damage from my hits have an increased chance to apply ailments if I only had investment into ‘chance to inflict ailments’

[thorny token]

you get base chance of 1% per 4% enemy ailment threshold (this is related to enemy hp)

the inc chance increases the 1% part of that pretty much

[hasty vale]

How does chance to freeze/ignite/shock work in relation to this kind sir?

[tidal copper]

What's the theme

[thorny token]

well only ignite and shock have chance, freeze has buildup

so inc chance to inflict ailments should only affect ignite/shock (and also bleed and poison, but those work slightly different as baseline)

[tidal copper]

Yeah bleed is great with it to cap chance

[wintry lintel]

Max life leech plus hat that gives my party life leech

[hasty vale]

So if I had 15% increased chance to ignite. Would that 15% be an additive modifier on the base 1%?

[thorny token]

nope, it would be multiplicative with it

so for example if you have 1% chance, it would increase to 1 * 1.15

usually you deal more damage per hit than 4% of enemy life tho so should be higher baseline than 1% :d

[hasty vale]

I see and so if I had 15% chance to ignite or 15% increased chance to inflict ailments would they do the same thing?

[thorny token]

nope

unless you mean 15% increased chance to ignite

then yes

because there is no source of base chance to ignite (unlike poison and bleed), its always based on the ailment threshold and your damage

[fervent briar]

Do you work on pob deathbeam?

[thorny token]

yea i did some stuff for this release

[fervent briar]

nice. i never noticed that icon before

[hasty vale]

I see thank you for your help! This is really useful. Essentially I’m trying apply multiple elemental ailments but I have better access to ‘inflict elemental ailment chance’ on the skill tree than having ‘increased chance to inflict ignite/chill/shock’

[tidal copper]

There is a bug with CI after you click it it should count you as full health all the time
But there are some nodes with full health text that won't trigger

[thorny token]

can always just click are you always on full life in config

but yea i noticed it wasnt working properly as well

[tidal copper]

Where do you report bugs? Or is it not necessary?

[thorny token]

https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding-PoE2/issues here

[fervent briar]

forums

oh pob bugs?

[thorny token]

yea

and its ideal to report there indeed just to have it tracked

as long as there isnt already issue for that

[lapis slate]

Is there any tip in upgrading your build??

I'm clearing T15 and I want to add a bit more of ES and rarity find but I don't want other pieces get locked for resistances

[thorny token]

the repo is kinda broken atm so noone is able to fix issues anyway

[lapis slate]

Locked I mean maybe that specific resistances with the upgrade are way more expensive

[tidal copper]

I guess if you buy a whole new set it won't be an issue

[lapis slate]

so I just save dozens of divines

[static plinth]

You can replace runes now, so that can help free up some

[tidal copper]

It's hard to tell what to upgrade end game...

[empty torrent]

does pob support annoint?

or can i allocate a node without connecting it to others?

[tidal copper]

Can you sort by DPS too?!

[thorny token]

you can

[tidal copper]

Nice!

[thorny token]

a lot of ppl are gonna realize how strong all those random bunch of increased damage annoints are :d

[fervent briar]

ya you cant really get 900% inc damage and 300% more damage in poe2 Its all fairly valuable.

At least i havent playing ssf

[thorny token]

yea, only warriors gets as much increased damage as poe1 builds pretty much (and quiver effect stacking) on normal setups

but warriors get fucked in other ways :d

[fervent briar]

at the cost of attack speed lol

[tender vine]

is it possible to make it so pain offering only uses skeleton warrios instead of my mages?

[merry bone]

target your warrior when you press the button

[tender vine]

i got so much stuff on my screen hard to see :(

[merry bone]

then no

[fervent briar]

shame when they make you have to actively interact with the game

[thorny token]

theres this gem on poe2db but sadly not in game

rip

[grand hedge]

Hey question for all Sorceress class fighters, how much intel would you say would be a good amount??

[fervent briar]

is that the berserker ascendancy after they added replica alberons and voidforge?

[median kraken]

Enough to use all your equipment and gems. Possibly more if you're mana stacking

[lone ravine]

Looking for a good invoker build - willing to spend a lot of currency as long as it’s strong

[woven smelt]

anyone figure out how to add stuff from timeless jewels. Like different Notable skills?

[fervent briar]

i played invoker in ssf and it was strong. i played ice strike/shatt palm with charged staff and bell. We may have diff standards though.

[shrewd jungle]

am i right that support spell cascade with choir hits bosses ?

its really hard to tell on video when it hits 6 times a second

[thorny token]

can always just trigger it once with something

but spell cascade doesnt usually overlap unless you aim it at side to overlap with 2 out of 3, or at least that is how it was in poe1 with most spell cascade setups

i guess you cant even side aim with the poe2 cascade even on regular skills anyway tho

[ornate bane]

why would my spark tooltip stay the same damage when weapon swapping to lower +spells and damage going from damage nodes to curse and area for spark

unless its based off what i click on the checkbox

that might be it

yeah thats it

[shrewd jungle]

it looks like all 3 hit, but i cant really say

[thorny token]

yea for bigger enemies looks good

for humanoids the side ones look like they wont hit

[shrewd jungle]

yep, i tried maxing out area in skil tree and using area suports but it just goes from .5 to .7

seems it rounds down

[fervent briar]

if you want aoe try out titan

[thorny token]

scaling area should also increase the spell cascade spread anyway

so idk if it would even help

[iron bane]

Is gemling or stormweaver better for a spark build?

[shrewd jungle]

spread ddoesnt work with are with choir

i tested that

[thorny token]

interesting

[timid lava]

Guys is there a website where you can put your stats on so you can experiment on which way to go? Especially when gear sockets

[shrewd jungle]

if you use concentrated support the spread is still the same, i planed to use that for smaller spread

it sux

[thorny token]

well pob2 just released so can use that

[ornate bane]

so made my weapon set 2 spec into curse node for my spark build and its so fast it doesnt even show the animation on the ground

its cursing though so whatever i guess

[iron bane]

Did you go gemling or stormweaver?

[ornate bane]

stormweaver

[flint coral]

Anyone feel like helping a new player with build? I've been playing POE2 since early access day 1 but new to this style game. Getting burned out trying to understand and build my characters. I have a lvl 90 sorc, 89 monk, and 74 witch. Please help me stay in the game

[thorny token]

well what do you need helping with

[flint coral]

It takes me sooo long to figure out gear. I have a decent amount of currency but every time I turn around I'm ending up with shit gear because I'm really just guessing with it all

[thorny token]

well you can maybe start with replicating your character in pob and then comparing item and seeing the upgrades

[fervent briar]

the more you play the more you will learn, and there are a lot of archetypes

[flint coral]

Something just isn't clicking in my brain for me to see how it all connects if that makes sense

[thorny token]

but finding upgrades is def pretty hard at least there isnt that many mods in this game tho, but you also need to understand how your build scales

theres also fairly useful button in pob for finding item upgrades but idk how well it works at the moment

[hasty vale]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/planner/ow8pp0n8 Can someone give me advice / critiques on this build plan I have for early game campaign? Eventually I will transition this into an attribute stacking HoWA build with Giant's Blood

[fervent briar]

interesting. What weapon are you planning on using

[flint coral]

Are you asking me?

[fervent briar]

no zion.

howa with giants blood

i got to thinking about totem builds with howa

[thorny token]

how i learned stuff in poe1 is mostly just following guides at first and then simply trying to understand why the build guide author uses whatever he uses, i would recommend same stuff here

[hasty vale]

Not too sure just yet will cross that bridge once I have the currency to transition it

[thorny token]

but i wasnt able to make my own builds for at least 2 leagues i think

[fervent briar]

well you usually use the weapon to scale the base damage. I would assume you have some unique that has a ton of attack speed or some weird scaling like that aftershocks mace

since youre using howa to get base damage i mean

[thorny token]

my first character i think was some minion build that was complete garbage idk if i even finished acts on it :d

[craggy kraken]

It works great, but gotta get used to it.

[fervent briar]

my first char was a witch and i specced into 2 elements cause i had d2 brain and immunity thoughts

couldnt finish acts lol

[craggy kraken]

Anyone else working in POB having issues with resists? I'm missing 45 cold res and I can't figure out where or how.

[fervent briar]

i went back and looked and i had a 1l fireball in 1 piece and a 1l cold skill and a 1l minion skill

[hasty vale]

HoWA just seems like the optimal late game item for all attack based builds. I think my mace for using Giant's Blood would really just need a good 'increased elemental damage with attacks' roll since the flat damage doesn't matter too much and I won't be building crit

[fervent briar]

are you planning on just using auto attack lol

that tilts me so bad how strong it is compared to everything else

[flint coral]

I worry mostly about blowing all my currency and then not being able to buy any better gear because I never get to wear I can farm it efficiently

[astral badger]

first is my current wand. second is one that just dropped. the second one boosts my dmg but drops my cast speed, mana by 200, and regen by 90. anyone have advice for my build? which one should i use? im a cryoshock/lightning storm stormweaver

[hasty vale]

Nah molten blast was what I wanted to build around, using chain off terrain to have a similar effect to spark

[fervent briar]

You should try out ssf, all of that economic stress goes away

[flint coral]

I dont know what ssf is

[thorny token]

idk if i would recommend ssf to new player in games current state

[fervent briar]

if molten blast didnt have that stupid forced movement it would be great

[fervent briar]

solo self found. no trading

[thorny token]

but also i wouldnt worry that much about blowing up currency as long as you dont brick your build in the process

[fervent briar]

i just think the divines/hr mindset is just a slippery slope to becoming a brain rot gamer.

[thorny token]

if you are just learning the game its fine

[thorny token]

sure but basically no crafting isnt rly great for progression either

[astral badger]

i should add that im using mom/ci/eld battery.

[fervent briar]

its definitely slow.

[craggy kraken]

Looks like the Grand Spectrum Sapphires aren't calculating correctly.

[fiery briar]

does eternal youth mean life recharge rate/delay will scale off increased energy shield recharge nodes?

[fervent briar]

most of my items are 2-3 mod max until around t10 maps on each char. even in hc i cant cap res until around t10s also. but its playable with patience.

[robust radish]

Is there a way to enable lightning exposure in PoB 2

I don't see a debuff checkbox for it

[carmine flicker]

what would be best mace skill rn? for 2h mace+shield or smth like that
for clear and bossing

[thorny token]

default attack and hammer

[astral badger]

anyone got some advice?

[thorny token]

[fervent briar]

2h mace with shield then a dual wield setup for offhand for hammer

[flint coral]

What would be a decent class to do a solo self found run to learn that isn't over complicated?

[fervent briar]

i found monk to be really nice

[thorny token]

monk probably

[fervent briar]

once you get ice strike with bell its game over. jus tpick a palm skill, use curse with chayula thing

charged staff later on

[carmine flicker]

is it really that bad?

[thorny token]

i mean warrior default attack is rly good

[fervent briar]

auto attack is strong af

[thorny token]

warrior other skills are rly bad

[fervent briar]

and there is no attack speed penalty

[thorny token]

also if you are wep swapping then wep swap to bonestorm instead

bonestorm op for any slow attack

[fervent briar]

wait

[carmine flicker]

I just want to do str stack infernalist(for life stack) with 3 beidat for low life with ROTF and ZO for regen stack and converting life to ES regen

[thorny token]

just slap widowhail and +2 quiver to offhand

[fervent briar]

for bottom left?

[thorny token]

ez damage

[humble frost]

I'm so sad that my stock "Scion Default Attack" recommendation is dead in PoE2.

[tawny flare]

How do you deal with mana? I’m currently lvl 21 with bell ice strike and herald of ice, the mana management is nuts. Especially on bosses

[fervent briar]

i never even thought of that

[fervent briar]

there are reduced mana costs things in the top right

[carmine flicker]

except AOE and clear speed left much to be desired

[fervent briar]

have you seen herald of ice tech with that stupid ring?

[thorny token]

yea can just grab bunch of int with wep swap passives also

[neat zinc]

any1 a millionaire that can trade me some gold?

[tawny flare]

Oh sweet okay I’ll have to work my way up there thx

[thorny token]

but bonestorm can be quite nice

[fervent briar]

up there? its right where i was planning on pathing on my monk

damn

once i rip this char ill give that one a go

[thorny token]

its gonna give a bit less % damage to 2 hander ofc but still

it gets like 20% more flat per level

and its a lot of flat

[fervent briar]

you can anoint this if you want too unless youre ci

[carmine flicker]

hmm, no
I kinda missed all melee tricks

[fervent briar]

i havent got to try it, ive spent a few chance orbs on sapphires but no luck

[tawny flare]

I’m not logged in so I couldn’t see where on the tree it was haha. I’m following a guide so tbh I haven’t looked to far ahead yet lol

[fervent briar]

it does like 1.5 screens

[thorny token]

you dont even need the herald of ice stuff for it ngl

[fervent briar]

mana has to be solved on every build now in some way shape or form. even if you have mana leech it doesnt seem to do much

[thorny token]

just mace splash with aoe and armour break is full screen clear

already

[carmine flicker]

I just want to stack 90 fire res on infernalist, 4k life, reserve it all for 3 beidat and go 10k ES with 2+k regen
easy, right?
just idk what to kill with with all that strange investments

[tawny flare]

Yeah, the mana per kill is okay for mobs, but damn it drains so fast on bosses, I could maybe swap a support for the reduced mana cost one

[fervent briar]

inspiration is good

later you can solve it in other ways but its totally good early

[carmine flicker]

(I guess I will have lots of spirit too, but not much to spend that spirit on anyway)

[thorny token]

(also i think impact shockwave needs more testing but i think it is impactful :d)

[fervent briar]

what is impact shockwave

[thorny token]

aftershock for strikes on heavy stun

[tawny flare]

Yeah, I may do that. Dmg is through the roof anyways as it is this early on

[fervent briar]

oh the heavy stun thing

[thorny token]

i think it can proc multiple times per attack and proc splash, but its hard to see sometimes

was testing it only briefly on my brothers account as i dont play stinky warriors

[fervent briar]

i used it early campaign but i just hate boneshatter functionality with prime

[thorny token]

you mostly need crushingblows to enable that stuff properly for clear

well not boneshatter that one is just bad

[carmine flicker]

that's why I want to build hot and strong melee witch

[fervent briar]

when i got crushing blows boneshatter quit working lol

[thorny token]

but impact shockwave

[fervent briar]

i think you have to drop all investment into stun to use crushing blows + boneshatter

[carmine flicker]

stomping ground is bad?

[thorny token]

its pretty bad

[carmine flicker]

I just see that infernalist can have huge regen with low life corrupted ROTF, but idk what to do next with that
where to get damage when all I have is tons of spirit

even not much in terms of minion nodes

[dark lintel]

can you give me some good annoints? crit/stat stacker/energy shield

[carmine flicker]

I guess I can go that strange 6% damage as chaos per minion scepter and reserve all the damn spirit for skellies and make it archmage-lite or w/e

[primal sluice]

Hey guys.
Im stormweaver spark archmage. For now im going with just spark, no cast on shock, because i lightning conduit eats my mana too much.

I have all parts rare with +mana, and everlasting gaze amulet to get some energy shield.

What is the next item i should farm for? Now i have 3k ES and 4.3k mana. Farmed 10 divs for now, not sure what i should spend it on.

[forest laurel]

so i pob an easy way to make and share builds

[foggy bloom]

which is the fastest attack skill?

[thorny token]

rapid shot probably

[rancid cipher]

With the changes to Blackbraid and the armor bonus, is there any chance it's viable to stack armor for mitigation? Or is this just worse than the Cloak of Flame approach?

I know the buff was only 15%, but I'm not really sure how bad armor was before to begin with. I've just heard a lot of people talking about it. Hoping someone with more knowledge can chime in.

[carmine flicker]

can you explode last gasp-ed minions?

[hybrid obsidian]

i was running CI with MoM i had 6400 es and 1990 mana, the only change i make is EB and i suddenly have 2600 es and still only 2900 mana ? can someone explain this interaction change

[carmine flicker]

well
you have % increase for your ES
and way less % increases for mana
so...

when you converted ES to mana less %increses work for converted ES

[hybrid obsidian]

ok so when " all es converetd to mana" it now no longer scales off the es nodes? so they would essentially do nothing?

[undone peak]

All you need to know is that when you take Eldritch Battery and have Everlasting Gaze amulet on, then all of your base energy shield is coming from Everlasting Gaze.

The energy shield numbers on your gear items have been converted to mana.

[carmine flicker]

well
they do SOMETHING
you have 1000 mana from it after all

[undone peak]

Any energy shield you have at the end of all the calculations is coming from Everlasting Gaze.

[stiff quiver]

I keep hearing that triple herald was nerfed, playing invoked? Anyone know anything

[hybrid obsidian]

i dont even have everlasting gaze

[split phoenix]

not really, I am eating content with triple herald

[carmine flicker]

and ES nodes increase ES you get from everlasting gaze

[stiff quiver]

Simulacrum too? Maybe I need a new build

[carmine flicker]

so with 3k mana you have 1k base ES and it's not that bad number

[undone peak]

Atziri's Disdain then?

[split phoenix]

havent hit that yet, but t15 is no problem

[stiff quiver]

Ye t15 is chill

[hybrid obsidian]

im not running any uniques

[split phoenix]

then again I am also using pathfinder conc build

[hybrid obsidian]

for this

i have ghostwrithe and brotherhood

[undone peak]

Oh it's ghostwrithe then

All your ES is coming from ghostwrithe

[hybrid obsidian]

ok so it seems like EB is really bad right now then i assume?

[undone peak]

It's great for archmage builds

especially with everlasting gaze

MoM, CI, EB is the meta setup for archmage

[dire stratus]

you can also run Grim Feast to overflow your ES if you can't use everlasting gaze. Have to drop eldritch battery though

[spice abyss]

is there a channel for pricing item help here?

[hybrid obsidian]

i wetn from 6400 es and 2k mana to 2600 and 3k so my overall ehp jsut went down right? and i only got 50% more mana? still worth it?

[forest crater]

Does “Cluster Bombs passive node”work for the skill Load Explosive Shot?

[hybrid obsidian]

i am runing grim i just dnt see tha buff right now

[undone peak]

well are you an archmage build?

[hybrid obsidian]

yes

[undone peak]

well that's a lot of damage and mana regen

idk why you'd run ghostwrithe as archmage though

[hybrid obsidian]

was cheap i only started mapping like a few hours ago

i didtn even know what gaze was tilla while ago either

[dire stratus]

i personally like running grim feast over everlasting gaze for my summoner because i can instead where a +2-3 minion skills amulet instead

[undone peak]

well presumably your summoner isn't archmage?

[hybrid obsidian]

so i guess last question dealing with this , can you tell me how im lossing es while i still have mana? with mom my es was dropping here and there whiel i still had tons of mana

[undone peak]

damage hits your ES before your mana

[hybrid obsidian]

oh shit so non " hitting" bypasses

[undone peak]

you're expecting damage to take from your mana first via MoM?

[hybrid obsidian]

and yes MoM seems to be bypassing

[undone peak]

huh

poison damage will bypass your ES and hit your mana due to MoM

all other damage will hit your ES before your mana

[hybrid obsidian]

im ci too

[undone peak]

okay then all damage will hit your ES before your mana

so you should be losing ES while you still have mana. that's the correct behavior.

[tough crow]

for Path of building that dropped a few min ago how do you allocate the weapon skill points?

[hybrid obsidian]

ya thats what i thought, so when i was mappping my es kept dropping , to like half

my mana never dropped below half by my es was going down here and there not consistently so i coudltn getll what was doing it

[undone peak]

well the mobs are dealing damage to you and it will take away your ES

[hybrid obsidian]

even though ihave mana?

[undone peak]

MY GUY

[hybrid obsidian]

with MOM

[undone peak]

THE DAMAGE THE MOBS DEAL TO YOU

WILL SUBTRACT YOUR ES

IT WILL NOT SUBTRACT YOUR MANA UNLESS YOUR ES IS 0

ES gets hit first

THEN MANA

[hybrid obsidian]

ohhhhhhhhhhh ok i get it

[undone peak]

ok ok

im losing my shit here

[hybrid obsidian]

sorry wasnt getting because its over my hp pool still, ive never seen this interaction in poe1

ive also never runa ci build in poe 1

[undone peak]

it worked different in PoE 1 since MoM was different

[hybrid obsidian]

well ty sorry i broke you XD

[undone peak]

poe 2 mom is "all damage is taken from mana before life" so it's even good with CI

in poe 1 mom is "40% of damage is taken from mana before life" so it's bad with CI since when you run out of ES and take dmg then you'd also take 60% of the damage from your life and you'd immediately die

[empty torrent]

is killing arbiter profitable?

if i buy keys

[silver anvil]

how can i stop allocating to weapon set 1/2 in pob2?

[keen sparrow]

anyone getting this?

[undone peak]

https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding-PoE2/releases

[humble frost]

Happened with changing the repository into being public. You can still file issues and download releases.

[undone peak]

but yes i see that as well on that particular page

[deft osprey]

so, how did you guys "copy" your build from the game into PoB 2? Just enter every single skill and item manually?

[keen sparrow]

oh i see

[undone peak]

for now, yep. you know you can copy and paste item text?

because that saves a lot of time

[deft osprey]

yeah! Havent done that yet, wanted to make sure that was the only way before spending too much time. thanks!

answered to the wrong thing lol, but yes copy/paste good

[wicked fable]

anyone using the new pob for poe2?

[queen chasm]

hello, i need help, how do i edit the vale of the jewel on the poe2 builder

[timid smelt]

are damage calcs in pob2 just wildly off right now?

[silver anvil]

cant swap my weapon set allocation points, any help here?

[kind mountain]

any functional map build with one handed mace? or they are useless?

[wicked fable]

damage calcs are super off lol

why even release it..

just continue to work on it and when your ready release it..

[ripe tangle]

Hey, I have SRS active with infernal legion and minion instability. I have flame wall with cast on minion death + impetus. when cast on minion death triggers, the flame wall is cast, but the flame wall does not cast the raging spirits. If I manually cast flame wall, I do get SRS. I thought this used to work about a month ago, did something change?

[meager shore]

does plaguebearer do hit damage?

[thin basin]

need to find consistence build for league start

i mean if not nerfed its always spark no

[iron meteor]

does stuff that increases warcry dmg also boost corrupting cry dmg?

[tranquil steeple]

did you work it out?

I checked and the functionality is there

[shrewd otter]

can we talk about POB here?

[tranquil steeple]

i just dk how

yea

u can

[silver anvil]

no, how can i swap it?

[tranquil steeple]

Idk either

Im tryna find out too

[shrewd otter]

is this the correct way to add support gems? i can't figure it out

[tranquil steeple]

yea

it is

[shrewd otter]

then click on new for every skill?

[tranquil steeple]

yea

[shrewd otter]

awesome ty!!

[tranquil steeple]

np

[shrewd otter]

was scared of pob in 3.25 when i first started but seem to kinda like it rn

[flint brook]

Hi guys I am LA deadeye. I have 420 dps bow without projecting spells. I have 350 dps bow with + 2 projectile spell. I equip both and my dps in skill tab is similar apart from the huge mana cost difference. Should I stick to the + proj bow and try and find mana? Or stick with the higher physical dps bow?

[jagged spoke]

whats the concensus warrior build for now?

[dawn spire]

I believe so, yes. I think they changed raging spirits so that they only get summoned when you cast a fire spell yourself. I'd check the wording to be sure

[dawn spire]

My vote is for Kripp's skeletal reaver warbringer. Seems nutty.

But real answer is that there is no consensus

[dawn spire]

If they're similar dps, I don't see why you'd stick with the one that costs more mana

[robust radish]

do i have to manually calculate my shock magnitude for pob?

checking the "is enemy shocked" config does nothing

[undone peak]

yes you do

you can just go into a boss map and see what your shock actually gets to

[forest mantle]

Anyone running hexblast demon form witch?

I have some questions

[foggy bloom]

do I get the notable bonus from a time-lost jewel if I swap to a secondary weapon set?

[hallow violet]

Why wouldn't you? Weapon swap doesn't affect your passive tree

[forest mantle]

anyone that can help is it worth specing into hex blast demon form if I already took max 10 demon flame stacks in ascendancy

[broken nexus]

I know that vine arrow received a nerf to its base damage, but is it still usable with enough skill scaling and just not crazy strong or is it totally dead?

[strong lion]

i have a quest to investigate the burning tower, but i cant get to it? how do i clear the quest LOL

[rough hill]

For pob how do I give it my gear manually? Trying to put in my build but I play on Playstation and trying to put in my gear.

[woven smelt]

you can copy each peace from in game and paste it individually in the add item section

and then just hit add to build

[hallow violet]

collect fragments from citadels

[rough hill]

I'm on my computer and putting it in while looking at my Playstation.

[woven smelt]

ohh, that's more fun haha

you'd have to hit edit and make the item

[rough hill]

I don't see how to do so. It's all grayed out.

[undone peak]

click the red skull

[tiny plaza]

there are support builds in poe 2?

[rough hill]

Oh wow. I suppose that makes sense but Idk if I would have thought to try that.

[woven smelt]

if you do create custom, you can just make it via text, but you have to know what to add

[rough hill]

Oof.

[woven smelt]

you can add uniques from here

but this is what an item would look like if you edited

[rough hill]

Thank you. One last thing. Is there a way to add stats to the jewels on the skill tree?

[woven smelt]

you can just edit the jewel and add the stats

like +5 to Inteligence

[rich fjord]

Is 14k dps on lighting arrow at lv 77 good or trash?

[undone peak]

you can put your gear for sale in a public stash for 1 mirror of kalandra then search for it and copy the item text through trade site

[woven smelt]

I don't think they have the copy button in poe 2 trade

[rough hill]

That's smart but that sounds like it would take forever.

Interesting. I don't think I can make my stats as low as they are in game for certain stats on my wand.

[undone peak]

it's probably a mod with spell damage and mana, not just a mana mod

[rich fjord]

Which one does better dps with a lighting bow set? Witch hunter or gemling legionaire?

[rough hill]

My wand is 15 spell damage and 19 mana.

[undone peak]

yep

sorry what's the issue

[rough hill]

On pob it's 15/ 17 and then 16/18, and then higher up the bar.

[undone peak]

yeah because the rolls within that mod roll independently

if u really want it to be exact u can force it

[rough hill]

How? Can you type it in?

[undone peak]

yeah hit edit and override the value

[rough hill]

Okay cool. Good to know for the future. Unrelated to this, am I crazy or is all quality descriptions of spells just gone in game since the patch?

[hybrid ocean]

Hey, what's the maximum slow magnitude for different enemy types?

[keen sparrow]

anyway to increase max shock in poe 2?

or is it stuck at 50%?

[undone peak]

stormweaver ascendancy node

only way i know...

[rough hill]

How do I add the correct corruption to my blueflame bracers on here? It's corrupted to be 122% of fire damaged converted and I don't see that when I click to corrupt it.

Oh. Corrupted is different from just editing the value.

[cerulean venture]

What are good simulacrum runner builds? I had a blast playing my atr stacker monk. But it sucks at simulacrum (get stuned / frozen all time and die also lack of aoe as herald doesnt work) same with ultimatum.

[rancid kelp]

do you put the post item modified level of skills in PoB or pre and let the item section handle the extra levels

[digital cobalt]

What's a build I can transition my gas arrow deadeye to? I'm in maps and don't know where to go now. https://maxroll.gg/poe2/build-guides/deadeye-gas-arrow-leveling-guide#changelog-header

Anyone have any fun ideas?

[undone peak]

LA deadeye is probably the strongest deadeye build

why dont u just play the endgame version of that build though?

[ornate jacinth]

What the a good budget mapper for beginners that can do t15?

[tranquil steeple]

timeless jewels not workong ong POB?

[rich pine]

I am probably stupid, but has someone figured out a way to allocate weapon swap points in POB2 yet?

[unreal crow]

New to this game. Help me pick a class based on a colour scheme!

From what I understand, no current classes use light as their abilities/attacks. Which class then has a similar scheme to white/yellow? Next best interest to me would be something with blues. Looks like lightning is in this game, but I'm looking for light blues and not dark blues/purple. Perhaps anything water related?

[rich pine]

The Int/Strength character (used to be the Templar in the previous game) is not in the game yet. There are a few semi-holy melee skills in the game tho, so maybe that is enough for you?

[empty torrent]

@unreal crow ice strike monk maybe?

[rich pine]

(Although I would not recommend starting melee as a complete beginner. It is currently not in a very good spot)

[tranquil steeple]

its ctrl scroll

alt

scroll

sorry

up and down

to swap

[rich pine]

THANK YOU!

[tranquil steeple]

took me so damn long

yea

[unreal crow]

holy melee sounds cool. That means between warrior and monk?

[pearl sluice]

Hey, what is that Path Of Building? I'm a bit lost

[alpine summit]

how to get session id?

to put it on pob

[rich pine]

In POE2 your class only dictates where on the skill tree you start and which subclasses you get access to later.
Everyone can technically use melee skills, everyone can equip a wand and start casting spells.
The few holy themed skills are mostly Mace skills, which is the "default" for warrior.
But once again, I recommend against it! Following the Default Warrior how the game is currently presenting him is going to be a little frustrating especially during the early parts of the game. If that doesnt matter to you, then yes, Warrior is probably your best bet.

[north stump]

do the slowdown from the Temporal Chains curse and the Hinder status effect stack?

[lunar totem]

Do we know if there are % leech caps?

[rough hill]

In pob how do I add gems to skills?

[lunar totem]

You add them on the right. Every gem on the right is a "set", so the support gems are tied to it.
To set up a new Skill Gem that you socket, you click "New" at the top left.

So to add a support gem to Hexblast there, I simply click the bottom of the row, the slightly grayed-out last line.

[rough hill]

Oooh okay.

[distant tendon]

is choir of the storm any good for a spark build?

[tranquil hollow]

is 355% rarity good on gear?

[distant tendon]

what gear

[tranquil hollow]

all my gear like total

[polar zealot]

does anyone know if physical damage on skill tree works with plague nova as it converts all the poison into a physical hit first , its like the most confusing skill in the game cos barely anything scales it

even pob

cant tell me which is what ive been waiting for it for

[north stump]

I believe that's called the rare drop support build. It's good for helping the team get more rares and uniques, but you need someone to kill shit for you.

[rough hill]

How can I add gems to an Ascendancy such as Temporal Rift?

[tranquil hollow]

yea that was my plan lmao

[robust radish]

so um why would i run lightning arrow which is less dps and ooms me quickly when i could run bow shot which is mana free and 25% more dmg?

can anyone explain this

why isnt everyone just bow shot

its BUSTED

[lunar totem]

Not sure, my Ascendancy skill just showed up in the list. I imagine you can manually add it if yours didn't.

[rough hill]

It doesn' tlet me include gems to it though, such as Clarity.

[lunar totem]

Adding another instance of it lets you add gems. Maybe disable the innate one that can't be deleted, and just add one which you can add gems to (I'm just guessing)

[rough hill]

That makes sense. I'll try that. Thank you.

[chilly vessel]

I swear I saw a support gem that caused poison on crit but I can't find it now. am I hallucinating

[tranquil steeple]

bleed chance isnt being applied in calcs

dont think any weapon set stuff is applied properly

oh nah bleed just doesnt work from skill tree rn ok

[chilly vessel]

oh I'm thinking of a helmet

[rough hill]

So I have 139 evasion, 81 armour, 501 life, 1393 ES. But my Effective Health is 1284. How does that work in the PoB?

[tranquil steeple]

its not all additive, resistances, dodge isnt just a flat value, same for armour

low resist = higher average damage taken = lower effective pool

[rough hill]

Makes sense. This character isn't even at maps yet.

[proven rapids]

We can tell

[proven rapids]

Because you need to understand that DPS tooltip is a blatant lie

[tranquil steeple]

bit rude

[clever sphinx]

which one better?2 socket so can put 10% res or second one dmg?

[tranquil steeple]

few things, Lightning arrow isnt jsut pure damage, use it for other things, the bsae skill of arrow shot is worse and doesnt have inherent effects tied to it

also any elemental increases ignore it etc.

in combat look at it I think depending on build

like I go from 170k dps to 500k+ peak in combat

[tranquil steeple]

its not asimple answer, but if you already ahve all res then damage is going to be better

[clever sphinx]

i see okok will try to get max res first, ty

[open ocean]

is it correct that supercritical gives 100% crit damage to base ?

[vast burrow]

hey so i loaded up pob nd the highlight for efficient nods isnt working

nodes*

is it just user error?

[odd zodiac]

I’ve levelled a ranger will ascend soon and cannot
Decide on pathfinder or deadeye. What would be best for map clear later on for casual player (have howa if that’s makes a decision easier) in budget
I’m leaning towards pathfinder poison as it’s seems easier to get damage on budget.

[hushed viper]

does CI count as full life?

[open ocean]

yes

Hello everyone need help from sorcerers veterans in this link

https://discord.com/channels/174993814845521922/1330053924073508874

[obtuse forum]

hey guys. i know most builds need at least 2 skeletal cleric. whats the ratio for when I should have 2? the most reaver i can have for now is 7

[limber pecan]

Pathfinder + Corpsewade boots = no button T15 map clears

[torpid zephyr]

Has anyone tried an ignition/fire spread dot build for leveling?

[rough hill]

In PoB how do you make skills via Spirit work?

[limber pecan]

For more info: I relied on Poisonous Concoction as my main damage dealing skill from Ascension up until low 60s, which is when I respec'd I to Skadoosh's guide build on Mobalytics. In roughly 5 days I've gone from level 1 to 86 and T15 maps are usually quite boring lol

[untold mesa]

I'm using Cast on Ignite, and I'm wondering if I should aim to stack as much chance to ignite as possible from passives. Is there any reason to go beyond 100% ?

[odd zodiac]

boring as in easy or just playstyle isnt great

[chilly vessel]

I can't get this helm to proc poison on spells. does that seem intended? or am I just doing something wrong

[gilded dove]

has anyone tested the effects of Temporal Chains with Shackles of the Wretched? IE: Can we make certain effects last longer on us like Unbound Avatar, Flames of Chayula, Quicksand Hourglass

[sage flame]

Maybe a dumb question here, but... does weapon swap speed affects demon transformation swap speed please? (°°)

[topaz bear]

is the pob2 github download link broken for anyone else?

[rough hill]

Any idea how to turn on spirit skills in PoB?'

[humble frost]

They're trying to unbrick the repo, it may be unavailable for a bit.

[topaz bear]

ty!

[limber pecan]

Boring as super easy

[forest agate]

did POB get taken off of github??

[robust radish]

yeah the repo went private or moved for some reason

[quartz tinsel]

You still need the spells to be doing damage which can poison (Physical or chaos)

Or use Plaguefinger

[humble frost]

The repository had gotten partially stuck in a transition from Private to Public when the PoE2 version of PoB released this morning, where none of the code was reachable. This meant that the PoB team couldn't collaborate and publish anything throughout the whole day.
While trying to work this out, it is now seemingly stuck in Private instead.

[robust radish]

oof, time for github support

or push up a new repo from a local copy

[full lance]

Im waiting for exactly that haha

[humble frost]

It's extra "fun" as the GH repo is used for things like the built-in updater as well.

[crisp star]

ok so how do people actually stack so much mana? more than 6k? i tried in PoB with all mana nodes. mana % against the darkness on a stacked area. Eldritch battery, 150+ max mana per piece(200+ per ring) with 20-30 int per piece and max mana soul cores on all gems with the morior victus set with mana % stuff. still not able to get anywhere further than 4.5k mana

even with ingenuity max i was able to get was 5k

dun get where the absurd 8k+ mana builds got it from

[full lance]

Any idea how long it will take? Appreciate the quick answers!

[humble frost]

Absolutely no idea, likely to require intervention from GitHub support.

[full lance]

Do you have the ZIP File downloaded and could pass me the zip in private chat? 😄

[ashen copper]

why does path of building have "crit chance" and "effective crit chance"?

how can you have a different effective crit chance from what your crit chance is

[humble frost]

I don't have any of the released versions unfortunately. I recommend being careful about whom you get programs from.

[robust radish]

i host github enterprise at work with premium support and it still took like 2 hrs to resolve a critical production repo getting stuck in private

[humble frost]

[robust radish]

so i imagine regular github support might be slower haha

[old oriole]

is there a point in irradiating citadels?

[robust radish]

unless one of the github devs needs their PoB fix (quite possible)

lol i just noticed i have randomly a bunch of cold resist passives in my PoB tree for some reason where they shouldnt be

[humble frost]

https://xcancel.com/Localldentity/status/1880527356231839852

[lavish sapphire]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/5m1gy05i can someone rate my build/give advice

[winter vortex]

Would 30% cast speed do more damage than +2 to spell level?

[old oriole]

how much % does fresh clip add totaly? and can i add that value to pob?

[fading ether]

can u download pob 2 now? i think they posted wrong link to git?

[old oriole]

yes u can

[feral fern]

well but we dont have the right link ^^

[fading ether]

no, their repo is down

[feral fern]

and also localidentity has said like 40 minutes ago that ther repo is down

so we still dont have access to pob ?

Does anyone play flickerstrike monk ?

[cobalt cape]

Hello I'm relatively new to the game, started 2 days ago. Just got started doing endgame stuff and was originally following the lifestack infernalist build. Looking into long term build goals, so considering the new patch, what is the best witch (infernalist if that matters) build as of now?

[elfin steppe]

Does anyone know if a detonate dead build would be just as good with infernalist as blood mage?

[tidal copper]

What does infernalist get to help? Ascendency are usually different not better or worse but if you don't get spirit it's going to hurt

[cobalt cape]

Infernalist has a node that gives spirit depending on hp

[narrow ermine]

Corrupted blood is just phys damage over time so it works as similar to any phys attack, right? First ES, then health, or first mana due to mom, etc..

[dull steppe]

Which allocate for amulet is good for pillar/howa monk if i cant afford the spaghettification atm?

[worn prawn]

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/y11ko0yw hello, anyone can help me to improve my spark Build? (can be copyed to POB2)

[wispy mason]

anyone here know if burning strikes "gain 12% og physical dmg as fire dmg" is that 12% of total physical dmg? or is it just weapon dmg

[thorny token]

its base damage and then it gets scaled by fire stuff after, but not physical stuff

[high marlin]

anyone knows how to put weapon set points inside POB 2?

[finite glade]

I'm having a hard time trying to figure out if a lightning build would work well in act 2 at level 32 or if I should wait until act 3 and a higher level

Is there anything I can actually do for a good build?

[tidal copper]

It'll work act2 is rough for almost all builds though I will highly encourage finding a good weapon

[crystal pike]

anyone got a link to pob2? as their github is down

[tidal copper]

I can zip it and send you my installation
But if it's a Trojan don't look at me

[finite glade]

Anything specific I should be looking for?

[tidal copper]

Lighting build? Orb of storms spark with wall of fire get a good weapon good luck
Maybe someone in #2┃new-player-in-campaign-help knows more about this types of build

[keen flint]

Guys can anyone tell me which is better for sourc at end game?
Lightning balls and warp or spark

Which is better and faster at clearing?

[orchid birch]

Hi

So I’m playing gas arrow levelling build from max roll to then eventually transfer into lightning arrow at lvl 80, does it go into each other? Like it works to change to that easily

[tidal copper]

Sure at level 80 you'll need around 350k to change all passive skills
Probably a new helmet and weapon so around 30/40 ex and you'll be on your way

[orchid birch]

Alright makes sense, just making sure since I don’t wanna f myself over

So why exactly is lvl 80 the threshold doe?

Unless that’s just a preference the builder made

[tidal copper]

Preference mostly yeah
The builder put the level where it'll work with zero issues if they are smart

[orchid birch]

Oh okay

[tidal copper]

Any build works at any level but worse or differently

Maybe some unique level threshold?

[hardy lichen]

what is a good passive that is like 30 ex max for ammulet for monk?

[tidal copper]

Monk what build

[hardy lichen]

the 2 hereld one triple element

[crystal pike]

yes please :^)

[hardy lichen]

this the wep ima use if that helps u deside

[native depot]

Why does my resistance go down when I’m on higher acts?

[tidal copper]

Overwhelm? The last point of the two handed weapon wheel near mercenary

[hardy lichen]

can u ss im blind sorry idk where to even start looking

[keen flint]

Any help?

[tidal copper]

Oh no the search is terrible but if you forge me to open the browser I'll find an attack speed node which will surely feel nice

[hardy lichen]

what direction is mercenary so i can search

[potent hearth]

guys I don't understand shock chances, I have invested in shock chance and magnitude in tree, am stormweaver and while my shocks are big I shock like once every 4 or 5 hits?

[hardy lichen]

then u need something that ignores resistances on enemys

[potent hearth]

oh? I'm doing like 60%+ of white mobs hp per cast though with arc for exemple

[hardy lichen]

idk then im monk and i shock alot

im looking cant find one mentioned but this one looks good so far

[tidal copper]

Blind is a nice mulpliet for evasion I heard

[hardy lichen]

damn these get expensive is it worth using all my currency on one of em?

on this ammy wort doing it on?

ima check what this does but appriciate help but those options u showed just a bit to expensive

would u say this was a good vaal for me?

[tidal copper]

Search a bit more the closer the wheels are to the starting area the cheaper* mostly
If you think you'll replace soonish whatever is fine like I think the ranger starting wheels have attacks speed and should be 3 greeds

Yes winning how much hp+shield is that lol

[hardy lichen]

well i crafted this one myself better ones prob exist but ill need money i have mine 15 ex rn

got 300 more eshield

now what is best thing to socket in here?

[tidal copper]

I'll bet ele DMG but I have never been answered how it affects the DPS
Is it just increased ele dmg%?
Does it interact with the weapon

[thorny dagger]

prob increased ele dmg

[plain topaz]

anyone have pob poe2 download for me?

github is down

[thorny dagger]

go straight to releases page

the respitory is down

Lightning balls and warp or spark

Which is better and faster at clearing?

@tidal copper, please can you help on this?

[tidal copper]

I'm not the Wikipedia, I feel like warp sounds fun but I haven't seen many end game lighting builds

[thorny dagger]

increased atk speed with quarterstaves, dmg of herald skills, increased lightning dmg and etc

crit too

[thick hatch]

anyone know what is the min - flat rate cooldown on temporalis to get perma blink?

i calculate, -2.8 would enough. but mybe someone can confirm

Didn't say that you are a wikipedia, was just asking, ty for answering anyway 😅

Okay, is it every second in time, or its every second slam?

every second slam

you can use leap slam for first and then your hammer will be boosted

can some 1 explain me one with the storm note? (Monk) why when Im consume 3 charges my charged stuff dont gain 4 stacks??

[main pagoda]

I love you

[honest ingot]

is 150% item rarity enough for solo?

[ornate basalt]

guys, how does Ingenuity Belt calculates the bonus added? like does it work with implicits aswell and does the bonus mutiply or is added to the percentual added from quality.

i.e.: rign with 33% lightning resist
33% + 20%(Quality) + 40%(Ingenuity) = 54%
or 33% + 60%(Quality and Ingenuity) = 52%

[main pagoda]

Dumb question but how do I set my ascendancy points?
Haven't used PoB since TOTA

[fiery scaffold]

ok why do i lose dps once i put this ring on?

Off the rim of the tree, not the middle.

[ornate basalt]

what is your current ring?

[main pagoda]

Got it thank you

[warped jackal]

Anyone? Because i feel like heralf of ice would be better for clearing, but cant say that with 100% since i havent used herald of ash for mapping

[near timber]

im not running minion builds, but could you give the amulet stats to your minion and regain those stats as their ally?

[lapis cedar]

bypass found for cockers

[old shuttle]

according to pob enemies cant go beloew -75, is this true?

[lapis cedar]

with base pen yes

thats why u need exposure

[old shuttle]

pen doesnt go below 0

i mean doryani

[lapis cedar]

pen goes to 0

exposure goes past 0

[old shuttle]

and doryi?

[sharp thorn]

There is one keystone that applies your amulet to your minions instead of you.

[near timber]

yes, that's what i mean

could they buff me with that amulet?

[lapis cedar]

we bypass god

[sharp thorn]

By defenition looks like the answer is yes. But you can always try it. Like You are an Ally to your Minion cause you are the entity that has stats and fight alongside.

[old shuttle]

ye but on pob you cant set to under -75

so my -150 lightning res is the same as -75 lightning res?

and getting an ingenuity to go to 200 would not help at all

[vast burrow]

so the highlight function on pob isn’t working…is it a user error?

[flat root]

is it possible to make a bloodmage with flickerstrike? (I know there are better characters for that but curious)

[old shuttle]

i mean i guess its possible

would you go for: Crit dmg for life. maybe the life for es Chest.

cause idk if you need 15% base CC

or is it spell CC for Bm i forgto

[full lance]

isnt there a way, to copy an item into pob atm?

[hollow hornet]

ctrl+c when you hover over item in poe

[full lance]

Damn i meant from the poe trade site

[flat root]

I suppose, hexblast and dd are just boring to play thats why, looking for something speedy

[old shuttle]

thankfully this makes it an easier choice

id say it could be good

i was honestly considering witchhunter flicker a lot

cause of the 5-30% first hit, culling (though flicker strike already can easily get culling with Mantra Strike)

the inbuild herald of ash

and the arcane defenciveness

i just went for gemling in the end cause +14 qual giving me hella power charge chance was lovely

[small horizon]

hello guys, do you know if perks from that tree actually gives their effect to minions too? I'm playing infernalist fire minions atm

oki

i think this is a good annoint if you want hella HP and ES from your chest.

[small horizon]

Im trying to optimize tree on a build where I cast flamewall with raging spirits, and make things blow up with Explosive demise (active from Arsonist), I don't know if it's good or bad, currently lv48 and doing ok

damn i dont thinkthis works

[elder mural]

Anyone tested if Spark better for 1 to 58 as a chronomancer for leveling or there is better option ? Considering i got most of the unique etc

[flat root]

whats generally considered the fastest mapping build with good damage in the game? (fast as in mobile)

[old shuttle]

there are a defenct few

Any Dex Stacking high AS monk builds can glide with skills. Lightning Arrow with Deadeye for tailwind is fast. High AF evasion + Queen of the Forest glides like there is NO tomorrow

Temporalis Blink is infinite mobility

[tardy wolf]

i leveled yesterday as spark took me 8 ish hrs but im slow i heard people do it in 6

[livid dagger]

wanna ask, if i use ambush, my minion will 100% crit right in fulll or it will be calculation again?

[flat root]

would monk invoker flickerstrike fit that category overall?

[old shuttle]

you said fast as in mobile

i would not dare call flicker strike mobile

its fast, it will get you somewhere

jesus will take the wheel, and its all up to him if thats into invisible enemies, a duo intangible exodia enemy, a lightning storm, out of a breach completely, or through the entire map in a single click

[past dust]

how do you place weaponset skill points in pob?

[delicate aspen]

whats the difference between AOE and AOE for attacks

[lean ice]

Hey guys hope everyone is doing well. What would be the best quarterstaff base? I was using a gothic one with high crit chance. If all quarterstaves had identical stats which would be best to use?

[viral trail]

I think aoe is like global aoe regardless if its attack or spell or anything and where as other one is for attacks only

[upper lance]

Is there a way to speed up the counting of this skill?

[delicate aspen]

You think Herald of Ash would be considered an attack

[viral trail]

I don’t think so it’s a buff/aura but it does deal attack damage so maybe 🤔

[delicate aspen]

hehehe so back to the same place I was

I really wanna just improve the chaining raidus from my overklil explosions

[viral trail]

I think adding aoe will improve it since it has both attack and aoe tags on it

Actually no

[delicate aspen]

monkaS no?

[viral trail]

Herald of ash doesn’t have attack tag

[odd spade]

in POB, can i cntrl+click my skills and gems like i can my gear?

[viral trail]

It doesn’t deal attack damage as well so no

[delicate aspen]

hmmmmmmmmm

[viral trail]

I think aoe would help but aoe to attacks prob not

[delicate aspen]

I see, interesting, It's such a small radius 😢 all i wanted was to use one skill and chain across the entire map

Guess it's too much to ask GGG 😠

Thx Lucius, much appreciated!

[wicked breach]

Hello everyone, can someone explain to me how Bleed works when you Dual wield? The details shows seperate lines (Main and Off-hand) but does it combine in 1 bleed or does it apply 2 seperate bleeds (which don't stack)

[marble steppe]

anyone know how rage on hit works?

[teal verge]

Hey how is hexblast calculated? Like if I do 1k, is that 1k regardless the number of curses? If I have three curses is that 1k divided amongst the three curses? Or does it do 1 hit per curse, so then it's three hits for 1k?

[honest adder]

I think it detonates one curse only.

[fierce sluice]

Does this tree look decent for a fire sorc? https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/wu25u05q

I did not add any skill gems or items obviously because I am ssf and will have to make tweaks as I go to the skill tree/gems

[teal verge]

Oh okay so when it says up to 9 explosions I take it that it's through some means like unleashed

[thin basin]

Anyoke knows if infernal cry works with osin

[shrewd jungle]

guys, im thinking of crafting bloodmage with quarterstaf

which quarterstaff build would you recomend for that ?

[waxen jewel]

Umm, what does this from the 0.11 patch notes mean?

"Map areas have been adjusted to have more distinct specialities for the content they contain. For example, one Map area might have more total number of monsters, while another is more likely to contain additional content such as Strongboxes, Essences or Shrines. Generally speaking, the more difficult a Map is to clear, or the smaller it is, the more axes it will specialise in. Here's an overview of changes we've made to give Maps more discernibility:
A number of Maps now spawn up to double the number of Chests, and twice as many minimum Magic or Rare Chests."

Does this mean that all atlas nodes with the same name have a special feature and that It may be beneficial to even build your atlas passive tree around this?

[pearl sluice]

It's just saying for instance a map like Crypt, might have x2 the chests that woods might have

[static thicket]

Do you guys think getting a .6 base cast time spell to .125 as a stormweaver/mana stacker with arcane surge and a lot of cast time passive nodes is possible or is DR to much of a hinderance

[pearl sluice]

as an example

Different maps on the atlas will have different bonuses

[waxen jewel]

Then there's a list of features each map may have:

• spawns up to double the number of Chests, and twice as many minimum Magic or Rare Chests
• contains up to double the number of Monsters
• contains 50% more Magic Monsters
• contains 50% more Rare Monsters
• has a higher minimum number of Rare Monsters you will encounter
• has a lower minimum number of Rare Monsters you will encounter
• has 50% more chance to contain Essences
• has 50% more chance to contain Strongboxes
• has 50% more chance to contain Shrines

cool

So in addition to the map layout itself, the speciality of it should/could be considered when choosing how to use your waystones

But Idk if it's feasible or worth it to shape your atlas passive tree around it in any way. Precursor tower buffs and +quant and shit work on every type of map afterall

Or if it's feasible to be so picky on your maps either

[thin basin]

Just run ur breach map w quant n rares bruv

Also i assume its to help those bad map layout nobody want to run

Mire n co

[shrewd jungle]

nah, the only map layout i hate is crypt with breach

because it spawns 0 monsters

[lusty surge]

should i path this way for extra cold damage if i cant buy lost diamond?

[robust radish]

That's a lot of nodes for one extra cold node

[lusty surge]

i know its really bad, but what else do i have?

lowest price for diamond jewel is 8 divs

[robust radish]

What is your goal, are you trying to freeze?

[lusty surge]

i need the cold damage to freeze yes

atm i am thinking about just using ice strike instead of tempest

but i need tempest for fast clear

[hybrid ocean]

Consider using Three Dragons

[robust radish]

Cheapest solutions:

1. run Polcirkeln ring
2. cold infusion support gem even tho it's DPS loss probably
3. extra cold damage on your rings/staff+ freeze buildup nodes on the tree
4. anoint the node (2 div)

[hybrid ocean]

Then throw a fire infusion & Conduction on your herald of Ice and you're golden

[visual seal]

in POB is it normal the tooltip of my spark isnt the same as in game?

[hybrid ocean]

My suggestion goes between 2 and 3, price wise

[visual seal]

like in POB it says 20K where in game i have 80K

of my spell skill ig

[robust radish]

I recommend just using a temp solution like Polcirkeln ring or cold infusion support then save your divs for an against the darkness to perma solve

[shrewd jungle]

what is pob

[robust radish]

Pretty sure archmage support isn't implement yet

[hybrid ocean]

Three dragons is a really easy solution though

Since you're almost certainly not hurting for lightning damage

[robust radish]

He is probably trying to start a herald chain with ice/thunder, will it still work if you fire infuse herald of ice?

[hybrid ocean]

Yep

Throw Conduction on it for reliability

But then it should just work

Always has for me

For best results get a few freeze buildup with quarterstaves mods on jewels

[lusty surge]

i might use three dragons

atm the problem for me is actually getting frenzy charges

so if i get resonance

i will see how this build feels without dragons and make assessment on the result

thank you guys for sharing

[robust radish]

Ye try the ring as well, 1 ex

[lusty surge]

yea i already have porc ring

[robust radish]

Still not freezing?

[lusty surge]

i am freezing, but i want to demolish the screen with tempest not IS

i cant make any judgement atm since i am low level

[teal hornet]

what runes should i socket on my armor pieces? this is without any and i got 5 slots

[visual seal]

how do i copy a trade item into pob?

so i can see how the gear affects my build?

[old shuttle]

Any weiladble power charge sources?

[teal verge]

Does cold or freeze do anything with crit at all?

[steep cloak]

i'm trying to use path of builder and gotten 99% in but after everything I'm 10 dex short compared to the toon in game

unequip all the gear and still 10 short

other stats are exactly right

any idea where i might be getting this magic 10 dex from?

passive tree looks right

[mint summit]

Passive tree seems most likely, should double check

But people are having pob troubles so it may just be messed

[steep cloak]

the required character lvl is correct

[tidal copper]

does close combat snapshot its damage or it progresses down as you leave the projetile in lets say ball lightining

[steep cloak]

is there some kind of implicit like mercs get +10dex?

[tidal copper]

yes merc start with ST 11 DEX 11 INT 7

[steep cloak]

looks like pob has that calculated

any way in game to see where all the dex is coming from?

[tidal copper]

remove everything?

i mean the equipment

if its in the tree pob can help you

[steep cloak]

oh yeah i took all the gear off and still 10 off

[tidal copper]

some notables have dex

[steep cloak]

but the str and int are correct, making me think the nodes are true

[fervent briar]

i found the cow level

[tulip fog]

downloaded the new POB2, trying to check what i can do to improve my Ignite DOT, why would this give me less ignite damage?

[steep cloak]

can the game client dump out everything adding to an attribute like pob?

[teal verge]

So I have a question. I'm watching this dude's vid and he says that frozen enemies are more likely to take critical hits, but I look at the wiki it doesn't say anything like this. Dos frost/ cold/ freeze do anything with crit, aside from the spells themselves having higher critical chance?

[steep cloak]

I figured it out! "Curved Weapon" isn't allocating its 10 dex

phew

where would we put a bug for pob?

[tulip fog]

probably on their discord or github (or any other such place they have idk what that would be as im only guessing)

[steep cloak]

well at least for now I can hack the toon to have 10 free dex

[mental burrow]

Hey, I have all my skills, items etc. but POB dps is off from what POE2 is saying, is that normal?

Im talking like 1000 off for some skills

[tulip fog]

the POB2 is only a beta version afaik, there are still inconsistencies in what it shows and what works/not works from my testing

[keen glade]

anyone tried if vile knight helm and attrition stacks?

[tulip fog]

like what i posted above in this channel, it makes no sense how getting more ignite magnitude would lower my ignite DOT

[sterile pebble]

did pob show you good dmg ?

[light mesa]

how should the adorned diamon work?

It's not doing anything, even though it should? 37% increase on the gem

[teal verge]

never mind. I had warframe brain and mis understood what he said. Critical weakness is specific to eye of winter. not cold.

[tidal copper]

easy if hit is lower ignite is also lower

do double check of course!

[tulip fog]

well, yeah, but hits is just 25% lower meanwhile i get 75% more magnitude and i already have 152% increased magnitude, so that support should be giving me another 100% magnitude at least, which should translate to something like 100% increased spell damage

roughly

[quasi oasis]

Can anyone help me on how to activate Archmage in path of building? I don't see any DPS gain but I see the spirit reservation

[thorny token]

the sceond mod is bugged, will fix

[compact wren]

Is there a big difference between 200 and 250 mf?

[tulip fog]

afaik, once you pass 100 - 150 you get diminishing returns for any additional MF you have, so probably not a lot of difference (just speculation)

[thin basin]

do u know if osin works with infernal cry? something something hotg poison

[thorny token]

infernal cry is as extra so nope

[sterile pebble]

looking for items work fine for you in pob?

[humble wave]

Why do I still have energy shield?

[tulip fog]

because of ghostwrithe

[humble wave]

aw man i was hoping it goes like

Ghostwrithe transforms HP into ES, then Battery transforms all the ES into Mana

[tulip fog]

i get you, but nope, it doesnt work like that

same with that amulet that gives you ES based on max mana

it also doesnt convert to mana

it stays as ES

[delicate aspen]

is there a way to get cast on block skill besides svalin?

[static plinth]

Does Controlled Metamorphosis let you allocate keystones like Thread of Hope did?

[static plinth]

No

[delicate aspen]

😢

[quasi oasis]

Can anyone help me on how to activate Archmage in path of building? I don't see any DPS gain but I see the spirit reservation

[rapid seal]

what is better 25% attack speed support or 10% less attack speed and 35% increased damage?

[primal valve]

damage if you feel like its lacking, speed if you feel like character movement is lacking

[rapid seal]

its a totems support

[primal valve]

https://tenor.com/view/phreak-league-of-legends-lol-gif-20688623

[proper pagoda]

how do you get warcries to apply to other skills in pob?

[regal turtle]

anyone know if temporal chains would make heavy stun last 25% more duration

[quasi oasis]

Can anyone help me on how to activate Archmage in path of building? I don't see any DPS gain but I see the spirit reservation

[slim pine]

Is there a good place to find Hardcore builds? i just jumped in

[dull eagle]

do passives that give % increased damage per ailment on an enemy counter things like freeze and chill as 2 seperate ailments?

[old ermine]

Does anyone know why I cant see the ascendancy passives on path of building? I picked my ascendancy but the nodes just aren't there.

[humble wave]

Let's say I'm starting with a high level white crossbow. I want to get... attack speed, physical damage, lightning damage, +level to projectile weapons.

How do I start crafting to get the best result?

Essence of Torment ( physical modifier ), then Augment Orb, then Greater Essence of Torment and then pray for good modifiers with Exalted Orbs?

[versed vault]

If I take a "cooldown recovery rate for grenade skills" passive, does that apply to all effects on that skill? (Including ones added by supports)

Elemental Discharge int/cooldown recovery stacking gemling

[distant cypress]

any prediction on when ggg will enable PoB2 api ingame export?

[thorny token]

they should, those 2 are separate ailments

[quasi oasis]

Can anyone help me on how to activate Archmage in path of building? I don't see any DPS gain but I see the spirit reservation

[dull eagle]

it seems as if its currently... bugged.

[spring marlin]

btw how does the "gem" work in poe 2?

[normal sluice]

I feel like this support gem makes a lot of passive nodes not worth it, so it seems at odds. But Conduction gives supported skills 100% chance to shock. Wouldn't that mean that nodes on the passive tree that grant any increase to shock chance aren't needed?

[dull eagle]

its 100% more chance to shock, not 100% chance to shock.

it basically takes your chance to shock and makes it 2x if you have no other sources of "more" chance to shock

so it actually makes the passive nodes on the tree far better

[forest laurel]

I cant find any decent build guides for blood witch that do not use minions with dd and hexblast is not doing good for me rn so i need a decent build for blood witch

[normal sluice]

Wow. Such an obvious miss on my part. Ty Kenny.

And there's no where to see my chance to shock is there?

[regal rapids]

where do i download POB 2?

[willow steppe]

Guys why while i want to set weapon set 1 skills into here (photo), marked skill is taking 1 normal skill point and 1 weapon set point ? others i could put normally no problem what am i missing

like this:

[vale heart]

whats the best arbiter passive points?

[flat island]

for ice strike invoker monks, what end game jewels are recommended? 33 divine budget

[silent karma]

what exactly is Burning? Not Ignite, but Burning? Is it just any Fire damage over time effects? Therefore Ignite WOULD be a Burn effect? I'm curious about the Intense Flames passive

[narrow trench]

Just starting a ranger build when it come to gear do I want just evasion or evasion and energy shield ?

[static canyon]

what should i go for first melting malestorm or Morior Invictus(spirit,mana) for stromweaver

[merry bone]

Correct - All Ignites are Burning, but not all Burning is an Ignite

[wheat cape]

is evasion or armour/evasion effective at end game or is energy shield really the only viable option?

[tacit lichen]

How do I get the poison cloud from decompose to give me damage values in PoB?

[dawn spire]

Burning damage is a fancy name for fire damage over time

[dreamy shoal]

any suggestions for what kind of jewels to put in mercenary?

[merry bone]

evasion is plenty effective - even better to pair it with some ES

[merry bone]

ones with stats that make sense for the build you are playing

[dreamy shoal]

literally in act 2 thanks for the help

[merry bone]

Do you even have any jewel slots?

[wheat cape]

how about armour/evasion? is that not viable given the current state of armour?

[merry bone]

Jewels go in your passive skill tree

[dreamy shoal]

yeah i know i have like 3 and just unlocked it ill just look it up

[merry bone]

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

Can view what mods roll on jewels and find ones that enhance the skill/damage types you are using

[dawn spire]

"Mercenary" isn't enough to go on to name any stats you might want for your build. And jewels can have so many stats as well. It's like asking what color/style of sink you should get without knowing anything about the decor of your kitchen

[static plinth]

Attack speed is a safe bet though

[wheat cape]

reload speed is nice imo

[dawn spire]

If they use attacks and/or crossbows, yeah

[merry bone]

Roughtly 60 affixes can roll on an emerald jewel.....

[dawn spire]

There are easily dozens of mods on jewels that could be useful for most builds, I feel

[latent salmon]

Why my cast on dodge not triggering my slotted spell

[merry bone]

you dont have enough energy?

[latent salmon]

I have plenty

[merry bone]

The skill you slotted cant actually be triggered, but GGG let you scoket it?

You have it assigned to the wrong weapon set?

[slim spoke]

Does anyone know if you can stack firestorm using over abundance. And if it has less duration, is it the same amount of projectiles just quicker?

[latent salmon]

I literally had it working and I did something by accident without knowing and it stopped working

[merry bone]

Make sure this is set properly?

Make sure you actually have enough stats for the skill

[latent salmon]

I’m doing cast on dodge with spark slotted in

I have stats and energy but it stopped triggering

[merry bone]

Welp time to reroll I guess

[gritty rose]

why can't we view/fork pob2 repo?

[merry bone]

The most common reasons are - You dont have enough spirit, you dont actually have energy when you are trying to trigger, you dont have appropriate stats for the skills you have equipped, or you have it set to the wrong weapon set.

Try removing and resocketing the gems if all of the above is not an issue.

That doesnt work - bug report

[thorny token]

github issue

[merry bone]

Literally says it on the screenshot you linked.

[gritty rose]

well, it's not like I haven't waited few minutes.

[thorny token]

well it wont be back in few minutes :d

its like that since yesterday

[near timber]

is mana on kill considered as leech?

[merry bone]

nope

[gritty rose]

that's a shame, I guess my weekend contribution plan has to be cancelled

[thorny token]

there is separate repo for contributions until thats solved

https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding-PoE2-v2 do you see this?

[gritty rose]

oh that's neat, thank you!

[near timber]

is the overflow like life remnant at 2x health?

[thorny token]

yes

[static plinth]

Yeah but due to the downside you end up at 1.5x hp

[royal hamlet]

"Increases" where? on armor? or everywhere?

[static plinth]

Global ones

Aka not on the pieces themselves

[dusk narwhal]

it's "reduced" life though, not "less" right?

[static plinth]

Yes

But this isnt PoE1 where 100% increased life is the bare minimum

0% is expected

Or well, maybe like 15% on amulet

[dusk narwhal]

yeah, true. My warrior's at 58% without chest currently

[static plinth]

Either way, that chest def has tradeoffs for how good it's upside is

[dusk narwhal]

been doing health stacking but never saw that unique before. I even have 20% life leech with blood magic

I'm gonna need to use it in place of a life/res morior though, so I need to fix my res elsewhere

[waxen jewel]

Does anyone else have bug where you can't assign skill to a keybind if it's only usable on one weapon set (due to attribute requirements)???? I have like 30 more int on my passive tree weapon set to cast higher level conduit smh

[dawn spire]

Don't you have like 10% increased from permanent bonuses or something?

[dawn spire]

Doesn't sound like a bug, it sounds like your set doesn't have enough int

[waxen jewel]

The set that casts the skill surely has

[dawn spire]

Try swapping to that set before you assign

[astral birch]

i tried it, was kinda ass

[waxen jewel]

What in the fuck is this, I try some temporary int boost I guess

It worked perfectly pre-patch

[thorny token]

also uncheck the skill to be used with the wep set that doesnt have the requirement

and just check it for other

[waxen jewel]

Idk what is the point of weapon sets if this doesn't work

It's curse

Conduit

Castable with anything, unarmed included (which I'm using)

[thorny token]

i had similar isse before and just making sure it only enabled for one weapon set that has the stat req worked

[waxen jewel]

And yeah, I have checked that support gem limits are fine too

Whatever, I'll try to fix with temporary +int item

I swapped from conduit lvl 12 back to 10, when my gear changed

this broke everything

[dawn spire]

If you have enough int on the set, I'd try manually swapping to that set with X and then assign the button

Did you happen to swap out an unset ring?

If so, try resocketing the skill.

[merry bone]

nah dog - wrong spot

[waxen jewel]

What is T17 anyways?

[merry bone]

T16 Maps on a Corrupted or Irradiated node. If its both - its technically a T18

[waxen jewel]

Why would you play your T16 maps on anywhere else than corrupted + irradiated both preferably?

[pearl sluice]

For warrior, duel wielding 2x 2h weapons does less damage than with one, is that how it should? or is Giants blood meant to be for one 2h and a shield

[merry bone]

huh? you would, whenever possible.

[pearl sluice]

this is in POB

[waxen jewel]

Right right, so calling one T17 or T18 seems just kinda confusing and unnecessary IMO

[merry bone]

But its exactly what it is. A T16 map is a T16 map - but if the node is corrupted or irradiated - its T17. If its corrupted AND irradiated - its T18.

If you called all of them T16 - h ow would you actually know which combination it was?

You could say "Corrupted & Irradiated T16" - but thats a lot of extra letters....

[near timber]

t16+2

[wicked breach]

how accurate is POB2?

[merry bone]

The alternative would be instead to refer to it by Monster level - so youd say Level 82 Zone, or level 81 zone - but again - extra letters

[merry bone]

Not

[static plinth]

Oh true i forgot Candlemass didnt just give flat

[wicked breach]

Still needs some work then I guess, seeing very different values in POB2 than in my game

[pearl sluice]

whats good sheet DPS for physical build like 20-30k?

[merry bone]

POB1 still needs work and is missing info on things - after like 9 or 10 years?

[dawn spire]

Any mods around?

[waxen jewel]

Does honour resistance get difficulty penalties? LOL

[fiery aspen]

never used POB before, trying to setup my poe2 character. am i on the right track for making the skill gem setups or?

[quasi oasis]

Can anyone tell me how to activate archmage in POB2?

[thorny token]

doesnt work yet
