[stuck grotto]

As far as I'm aware

[minor tree]

yep can confirm, i had a visage of ayah to try

[bold oxide]

are we able to change the venom draught quest reward yet?

[minor tree]

oh you're right, increases to es won't apply since the conversion is first, that's convenient, i can ignore es x)

[zealous dawn]

Hi, I'm trying to incorporate reverse chill into my Oracle Druid build that focuses on entangle. What would be best to actually get enemies consistently chilled? I have a wand with 30% extra cold damage, I tried added frost nova to cast on critical, and looked a possible support gems for Entangle.

[modest ginkgo]

yo guys

Might be going bit crazy with this but why is my damage on stormweaver so so bad?

I followed this guide

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/animeprincess-coc-comet-stormweaver

this is my skill tree around level 65 but i cant even do maps . Im tempted to jump back on my level 94 wolf build but wanted to badly try stormweaver

not the best build but should have been enough to go through early maps fine

but there is literally no damage lmao

[thick thunder]

What build is the smoothest to maps on league start? ED lich?

[rich bolt]

I have a build idea but need to know if cooldown reduction works with living lightning?

[modest ginkgo]

Shaman bear

simple and pretty strong just stomps elites out

[thick thunder]

I mean that's a good build but it has the same problem all attack builds have which is damage spikes based on your weapon so I wouldn't say it's the smoothest

[pastel forge]

In that case just play a disciple of vaswhatever it was since the staff+focus thing is so strong especially when the unique focus everyone uses is cheap as well

[upbeat hinge]

Grenade snapshot question: Say I fire a grenade and weapon swap to a melee weapon set and choose to have the surrounded damage nodes allocated on that weapon set, then walk into range of enemies to trigger the surrounded status. Does anyone know if the grenades benefit from those nodes when they detonate or do they only keep their tree's damage? I'm aware Mortar Cannon only uses its own tree since it's a totem but I wasn't sure about grenades you fired yourself

[next zealot]

hellooo friendos, got newly into PoE 2 after 800h on PoE 1 (most hours at Delirium League 3.10 + Harvest 3.11) and I started with a Shaman Bear to know like the core mechanics, but i'll be probably looking for a high attack speed lacerate Gladiator-like build like I had in PoE 1 but don't know if a similar skill exists for PoE 2 ? Do you have any ideas if thats possible in this game ? If not, something similar ?

[timber talon]

how this works this is my lightning spear crit chance in game

but PoB says its 48%

🤔

[jade stone]

Any suggestion on what would be a good sanctum farmer?

[brittle anvil]

Temporalis

Or fake temporalis with cooldown stacking

[jade stone]

Brother I’m farming sanctum because I’m poor 😭

Was looking at lances self chill idk if it would work

[brittle anvil]

Yeah self chill sounds nice

You just wanna go fast

[jade stone]

Yeah I think he hit like 70% action speed or something

Kinda don’t wanna do entangle though as my last two chars were

40D gloves are not ideal

[atomic halo]

instant is instant

you would be capped by flask charges of course

[atomic halo]

the second number is what is added to the 36.85%

ingame shows a range because accuracy is variable

no

[timber talon]

so pob is the real value?

[atomic halo]

i would just follow pob here yeah

[timber talon]

I guess the 33% crit chance from helmet is not gonna change much since from 15% on gem I got 1,8% might aswell grab some attribute or something

[midnight zealot]

Yo chat, pretty much finished with my djin sorc now. What’s a fun build I could re roll a new character for?

[north talon]

What ways exist to scale fire resistance reduction for ignite that don't depend on high int investment? Is the much beyond just 20% exposure + effect?

and the Firestarter notable I suppose

[pastel forge]

Fire pen gem?

[north talon]

Fire pen only effects hits not ailments

[pastel forge]

Ah hmm

Actually doesn't ignite just scale off the damage you deal with the fire dmg hit? Or are you using an ignite skill without hits?

[north talon]

so iirc, ignite scales off hit damage but the scale is based on pre mitegation damage.

Unless ignite has to deal with resistance twice?

[pastel forge]

Doubtful, so you just need to handle resists for the hit it seems

Since there's 0 supports for resists with ignite

[north talon]

That is what the game says specifcally

which to me sounds like premitegation fire damage applies a fire damage DoT that has to deal with resistances still

The normal tools to do that are exposure and curses, but both are pretty heavily gated behind intelligence which I just do not have and cannot reasonably fit

[pastel forge]

It specifies final damage of hit for the ignite no? Which would have gone through resists?

[north talon]

but not any modifiers that would affect how much damage they would take from the hit, which would include resistances no? And that would be consistant with PoE1 ignite and with PoE2's Bleed and Poison mechanics

[pastel forge]

How did ignite deal with resists in poe1 then?

[north talon]

Resist applied to ignite and penetration had no effect

But I guess based on this wording maybe resists are applying in both places in PoE2? Which sounds wrong but may be what is being said

Since mitgation is mentioned seperatly from modifiers to damage taken

which is what is explicitly stated in ignite

[pastel forge]

Sounds like ignite is a pain to scale without exposure/curses then

[north talon]

Ignite is very underwelming in general I just want it to work

expecting it gets some love with Templar most likely

like how bleed did with huntress

[pastel forge]

Flame breath is the only ability that allows stacking ignites I believe?

[north talon]

Incenerate too I think, but that is gated behind the wacky fuel stuff

[pastel forge]

Main issue is ensuring you get a power charge for, you get 5s free channeling flame breath if you get that consistently and can stack attack speed

At one point I was at 18hits a second on a slow weapon

Tho I end up killing things fast enough for the ignite to not matter so idk what to think of that

[north talon]

I am playing ignite crossbow atm, which is mostly ignite damage with minimal hit stuff from rapid shot (because it is the only source of heat so forced generator spender >.<). Oil Grenade and Incendiary shot

[north talon]

I guess Xoph's Blood is an option 🤔

[autumn shale]

which builds constantly use remnants?

[scarlet mason]

is there a way to turn off infernal hound without un-allocating the passive?

[uncut bay]

bloodmage spark?

[near jewel]

guys, is physical throns warrior viable nowadays?

for bosses tier 1 only. and comfy t16 maps?

[golden violet]

Any HC build recommendations for disciple of varashta? All guides I found are for sc

[lime narwhal]

levelled ice shot deadeye to 80, but I don't think theres much point in investing more into this.

any ideas for not a bow deadeye or pathfinder builds that are popping?

[viscid sail]

oi... whats a build i can follow that is garanteed to get me to endgame and enjoy endgame activities?

need help.

(if its druid, would be better)

[pastel forge]

Can try this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtgVHOXteWA

[viscid sail]

ill check this when i wake up 👀

[fringe lagoon]

Poe ninja is your friend!

[fading flicker]

im losing my shit, running siege casc tact, takes a fuckton of currency to get the dps running high proper

might reroll the TACTICIAN into a shield wall... or do i go lvl a titan? go back to lich minions? make a last lament lich? or bm entangle? or lvl an oracle??? 😭 plz idk idkkkkk

[stark kestrel]

Did anybody manage to get incinerate to work?

[fringe lagoon]

Reroll tactician into witchhunter and go whirling slash twister

[fading flicker]

ewwwww

[fringe lagoon]

If you don't mind moving with the mouse https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile2builds/s/9ahvIEBD3i

At least u don't have to level a new character

[fading flicker]

im familiar with the build i just rly dislike the playstyle :D

not for me at all, mouse moving being one reason as well

[shut hill]

anyone else who is not completely noob like me having trouble getting builds to do t15s+ ? its like everything is so stupidly expensive, playing ed contagion witch, a good wand is apparently now 200+div like how am i supposed to farm that , it feels like you either farm juiced content and farm enough or you don't and you farm .. basically nothing

[terse haven]

Hey, I am trying to get a hold of Crown of the Pale King Cultist Crown in SSF. I was hoping I could do it through the gamble vendor but After nearly 100+ purchases I haven't gotten a single unique let alone the thorns helmet I need. Can anyone give me some SSF advice on how to somehow get a hold of this specific unique? As far as I know aside from chance orb and just spamming maps there isn't any other way but I am hoping some experienced SSF players are able to help out with some advice?

[shut hill]

i have about 20d right now and looking into what I could invest it into , and everything feels like a scam , I know temple inflated the economy but this is just too much, I think its a problem that goes beyond temple

[hoary ingot]

guys

so i was using a lvl 18 choir of storms

i got a lvl 20

i cant socket my support gems in it

but my lvl 18 choir works fine

[fading flicker]

naaaah ima lvl a titan, then pivot it into unborn lich build brrrrrrrrrr

[whole nymph]

why ED/Contagion is nearly under 1% played ? i thought its on the same metalvl like poisonburst pathfinder

i cant decide what to play 🙁 ED/CO, PB or bloodmage comet /spark crit

[hoary ingot]

my int wasnt enough which is weird

[fading flicker]

play something not meta

[earnest igloo]

craft your wand

[whole nymph]

Have fun, others play what they enjoy, regardless of whether it's meta or not

[flat jungle]

does swift affliction work on herald of ash?

[long parcel]

pls someone can tell me what this means

does it have anything to do with a shield?

or is it literally just 20% increased armor but only if i have energy shield

[flat jungle]

the top line gives 20% increased energy shield

the bottom gives you basicly 20% more armour as long as you have AT LEAST 35% of youre energy shield

very strong node if you go ES armour hybrid

[long parcel]

i see

thank you

[fading flicker]

well obviously

i just happen to have more fun not playing the meta

[flat jungle]

i always want a strong build but i dont like meta because its expensive i currently try out bleed crossbow still in campgain but i just got plasma blast and the dmg is SICK

[thick thunder]

Is there a way to get lightning bolt cooldown to 0 seconds without temporalis?

I only see like 76% cdr on the tree

[olive compass]

If i have a life flask that removes mana, but i have no mana at all (such as Blood Magic), do i still get the increase recovery from thd flask?

[placid grove]

yes

[fading flicker]

yeah kinda same, but also a mental thing a lil too, i just feel a bit >:( when i play meta lol

tho for a weird reason got an itch to try spark choir or something suddenly

[fading flicker]

maybe with titan

[flat jungle]

yeah the least meta build to ever exsist since release XD

[flat jungle]

no but you can get it to only a few server ticks and thats enough for manaflare too loop itself

[fading flicker]

damn right

thats why im doubting my existence rn

[inland wyvern]

it seems like wind dancer dont work with spears anymore. did ggg announced it anywhere?

[fringe lagoon]

It surely does

[inland wyvern]

yea i mean, i was using it before. i just logged in and saw that its disabled and with the message in the screenshot

[split rock]

Check your weapon sets

[inland wyvern]

set 2 is empty

set1 is just the basic spear scepter

[split rock]

I’ve had issues with it. Click the box on and off.

[inland wyvern]

ill finish the area im and relog to see if it fixes for some reason

[old oriole]

uh i got far following this build, but the defences are kinda....?

[inland wyvern]

same problem. wind dancer doesnt work

[lilac hinge]

hmm yeah

olroth is a really big defense

[old oriole]

so far i have two things to address, i don't see how defences are working here, also can i change from crossbow to bow?

[lilac hinge]

you can

[old oriole]

olroth?

[lilac hinge]

the flask

[old oriole]

ah....

shit

[old oriole]

that's too rich for me

what do u reccomend i do about defence instead?

[flat jungle]

LOL got 2 perfect double corrupted herald of ashs and 1 plasma burst is that a sing for bleed crossbow?

[inland wyvern]

now herald of thunder did the same

[flat jungle]

do you wield a caster weapon?

[inland wyvern]

a scepter for extra spirit, but it wasnt a problem until last hotfix

[peak leaf]

which coc comet variation is the easiest to get into?

[inland wyvern]

and the hotfix dont mention anything related to not being able to use scepters on spear builds or changes on heralds

(and wind dancer)

when i told here that wind dancer wasnt working, herald of thunder was active without problems. it just disabled now

[flat jungle]

disequipp scepter activate herald of thunder wind dancer and than equipp scepter?

[inland wyvern]

it doesnt work. even with only the spear equipped it says it doesnt work with the weapon set

[placid grove]

with spear your other ones are working fine meaning you dont have enough spirit to turn it on no?

have you checked if its on on both weapon set in skill settings?

[inland wyvern]

if the problem was spirit the tooltip would say that i dont have enough spirit, like it did when i passed the mouse on herald of fire without the scepter (not being rude, just explaining that at least this part the game "knows" whats going on)

[inland wyvern]

oh this i didnt check. lemme see

didnt need to do that before so ill check

ok this was the problem. for some reason it disabled itself and it didnt happened before even in other leagues

thanks for the info. i didnt know that this was a thing

[placid grove]

well game sometimes do remove it, i would assume it was cause at some point you might have equiped sceptre as main weapon and it just disabled both cause it was not martial weapon

[inland wyvern]

makes sense. when i remove the spear the scepter goes to the mainhand slot, so maybe that was the cause

[old oriole]

i had this issue earlier probably issue with attributes not enough

if you're using +levels

even if it shows u got enough

[north talon]

is there any way to cause a bleed with Avatar of Fire?

I guess only Blood Mage 🤔

[inland wyvern]

ah no, that part was fine. Velo showed a UI i didnt know existed and it was there the problem, as those auras/heralds werent checked on the weapon set for them to be used #2┃build-planning message

in the end it was a weapon set problem, but not the one i thought it was lol

[old oriole]

for this build do i need more ele dps or phy dps? or balance?
https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/vaal/character/jeyzzzi-0927/jeyzzzi?i=0&search=name%3DJey

[fringe lagoon]

check on pob how much u scale with phys compared to elemental

[old oriole]

i still don't know which skill is main dps but this is for the skill i use most

[fringe lagoon]

Might be elemental then, u can try adding some % or flat damage (elem and phys) and see how much it affects ur dps

[old oriole]

i'll go for highest ele dps when buying then

[dire shuttle]

what is the best withc essence drain build to level campaign? i got overwhelmet with tons of builds my goal is decent single targer with the contagion for clear and nothing else special

[old oriole]

when using a bow, what skill would be similar and also is good with all three elements and heralds?

[fringe lagoon]

Not sure, I don't have much experience with bows builds

[old oriole]

it's fine then, i don't have much experience with builds ig

[zinc linden]

can someone recommend build for like 1-2 div budget that can clear temple?

[midnight bolt]

Is it a bug that shattering spite despite having aoe tag doesnt get damage from concentrated effect?

[balmy fulcrum]

Twister build, better deadeye or amazon ?

[placid grove]

not sure on this league but i leveled lich ES/Conta build last league it was easy to set up and play as and cheapish

[dire shuttle]

you got any resources on it? a link maybe

[placid grove]

i believe it was Wudijo ED/Contagion Lich build but not sure if he did play it this league

[craggy plover]

Does Efficiency 2 effect glory generation? or just mana?

[fringe lagoon]

Witchhunter

[craggy plover]

as in, does it make the skill require 40% less glory?

[dusky wadi]

im looking at a poison pathfinder build on poe ninja, is there a reason this guy is skipping the damage nodes?

[fringe lagoon]

Pathing to attributes save points that can be used to get more value somewhere else on the tree

Very common in tuned high lvl builds

[dusky wadi]

fair, does it make that much difference in early game or did he just respec completely?

[fringe lagoon]

early game u want the opposite usually as it is difficult to reach further, more valuable points, on the tree

and u take all the dps nodes u can get instead

[dusky wadi]

so just take damage and normal stuff and respec later?

[fringe lagoon]

yeah

[dusky wadi]

isnt that expensive?

[fringe lagoon]

gold for respec should not be a problem

unless u spend all time crafting in hideout rather than mapping 😄

[dusky wadi]

nah

im at like 1.2 mill rn

[hybrid ocean]

Just sell rare weapons you find instead of leaving them on the ground

That way gold is almost never a problem

[dusky wadi]

also, why are alot of pathfinder builds using the plaugefinger gloves?

[zinc linden]

is atziri contemt spear enough to ge to t15?

[fringe lagoon]

You need other pieces of gear, but that spear is very good especially if corrupted

I use it still on a 700d build so..

[zinc linden]

what else i would need to get it to somewhat safe/easy t15

[fringe lagoon]

U can check my poe ninja / pob here: https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile2builds/comments/1py1149/witchhunter_whirling_slash_twister/
Can look at the time machine functionality on poe ninja to understand progression

[timber talon]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Zrebak-0045/character/Nygelia
Anything I could do to improve my amazon? especially boss dps and maybe ability to clear lobbies alone?
btw maybe im also doing rotation on bosses wrong? Voltaic mark -> Barrage -> storm lance -> barrage -> Explosive lance spam?

[zinc linden]

yeah, but i can't guess when you did t15 on each day :D

[fringe lagoon]

I did t15 on day 3

[zinc linden]

ok thanks

[fringe lagoon]

[placid grove]

from my understanding its just "easier" to increase magnitude with elemental damage instead of pure Phys, and maybe little forgiving when gearing

[warm grove]

Hello i'm playing coc comet oracle and i got some issue the build feel clunky like i dont have a lot of coc proc while mapping my sustain of life is good but damage wise i feel like i'm low. if someone can help me thx! https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/14f7f

[regal zinc]

any plants build using palm of the dreamer?

[north talon]

Avatar of Fire seems like it keeps being bait. Turns out some only real ways to scale ignite involve dealing non fire damage

[dusky wadi]

is chaos attunment worth it on vine arrow? it says its a damage down but thats only on the impact i think

[north talon]

Are there any faster to use high value exposure skills (50%) than Primal strikes that do not have intelligence requirements?

[minor tree]

cast on crit says "missing socketed skill" on weapon set 1, but both it and the spell socketed inside of it are enabled on both weapon sets

i also use the same weapon for both sets

what gives??

i'm not using weapon set passives either

i have the spirit for it too

[austere berry]

hi trying to find the right channel to ask this

any good new player builds for witch?

[formal silo]

idk what I am doing wrong but when I cast despair its no longer activating to let me hex blast

only thing popping is doom after curse ends

[white maple]

Hey guys i wanna make my own build any tips you got?

[formal silo]

honestly get in there and just do it, you gotta fail like 1000 times and see what interactions happen from cooking

[white maple]

KNOW WHAT??? FUCK IT its only a game man i got nothing to lose literally

[cold hawk]

I'm looking for a monk build guide that I can follow from Act 1 to the endgame. Do you guys have any suggestions?

[formal silo]

figure out what you want to make

like I love chaos melee and chaos in general, so I always cook up dumb shit 95% of the time it fails, but when that 5% hits oh boy

[fringe lagoon]

Learn to pob, use Poe ninja for learning new tech

What are some easy budget builds a relative newcomer can try? My only experience was finishing act 3 on an invoker in 0.1? Right now I'm trying a wolf build but basically anything would be new to me.

It would also be helpful if it didn't have epilepsy/blindness inducing animation 🤣

anyone know how this person is using unleash as a main skill? It's a support gem as far as I know...

[robust ember]

If i wanna play infernal legion with 1 big ignite and cant stand the elephant - what are my beast/spectre alternatives?

[olive compass]

Im using a banner that cost 30 spirit. I realized that quality gives me Spirit Reservation Efficiency of 10%. This means the actual cost is 30÷(1+0,1) which is equal less than 3. This sounds ridiculous. Does any one knows if the efficiency apply for the support gems that also cost spirit? If so it could make sense to have the quality.

[cedar aspen]

Is ambrosia 1 or 2 better?

[hybrid ocean]

What's an instant attack/spell ?

An invocation, or something else?

[dusky wadi]

im torn between doing poison pathfinder or doing somekind of whirling assault build cause it looks fun, any recommendations?

guys is it bad to use a totally different for my class?

like if i play huntress and i use cross bow

nah its not bad, there's probably some synergy you can get with your ascendancy and your weapon

i want to get my single target damage higher without affecting my clear much

struggles heavily into t3 pinnacles

@dawn heath https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/wq102300 here is a version with the sceptre showing

idk why it wasnt before

its purity of ice not fire idk why its fire there

[lilac hinge]

is there any way of useing up a lot of power charges on a spell caster (not lich)

[upbeat ivy]

i could get this one

[dawn heath]

What's your unused spirit in game? It should only be using like 120 I think

[fringe ibex]

if you reduce ignite magnitude to 100% does it make you take 0 ignite dmg?

[upbeat ivy]

Yeah im using 120 if i take off regalia its fine

[upbeat ivy]

yes

[fringe ibex]

oh wow ok

thanks

[upbeat ivy]

thats why bears self ignite

and then ignore it

[fringe ibex]

yea, that's what i was cookin

[upbeat ivy]

Like me

[fringe ibex]

didn't see anyone on poe.nijnja

you go ritualisT?

[upbeat ivy]

my build is shaman bear

its linked above

[fringe ibex]

ah, i was gonna try to use it as my main like clearing

[dawn heath]

jeez that's expensive. Also see if there's a 5 socket moriors

[upbeat ivy]

I do too

[fringe ibex]

ah

[upbeat ivy]

not with that set up

[fringe ibex]

you keep charm up 100%?

[upbeat ivy]

:9

Which charm?

[fringe ibex]

the beira's one

[upbeat ivy]

i dont have that charm

[fringe ibex]

oh that's what i was lookin at, using that reflect ignite node

Self Immolation and the charm

i know infernalists were able to self proc it like in .2.0

[upbeat ivy]

its not out of budget

it just is expensive

https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2/search/poe2/Fate of the Vaal/ky9RnJ7ru5

change sockets to 5 and nothing

:(

because i need minimum 11% chaos per socket to make up for the soul cores

though if i go to 5 sockets 9% would work too i guess

wait

no dont worry

there is one

LOL

I just cant afford it

[dawn heath]

pob it, put in ES runes into your boots and take iron slippers if you can with decent ES boots (your passive tree doesn't show) and then you get 35 more sockets to see how much survivability u gain. Then decide, but if you're trying to upgrade everything at once it may be easier to do that, I just saw an easy piece I'd upgrade

[upbeat ivy]

wait

i forgot to take off only non corrupteds

its a lot cheaper nw

now

[upbeat ivy]

wait this part confused me

[dawn heath]

import your build into pob. See what it says your survivability is. Copy the 8 div moriors into pob, put in 4 iron runes or whatever and equip it, change your glove runes to iron runes, see how much your survivability changes

Then you can decide if it's worth buying before actually buying (try b4 u buy)

[upbeat ivy]

How do i copy smth off of the trade website into pob?

im new to using pob tbh sorry

[dawn heath]

copy button bottom left

import button in pob

[upbeat ivy]

this button isnt copying it for me

:o

[dawn heath]

I think u can also hover over it and control c

[upbeat ivy]

got it*

[upbeat ivy]

That one isnt there for me

[dawn heath]

It might be my extension

[upbeat ivy]

i just visited and copied it in game

[upbeat ivy]

bruh it keeps doing this when i import it

[dawn heath]

I have no idea. That's a really good moriors though

[upbeat ivy]

i would love that one actually

[dawn heath]

make it yourself I guess

[upbeat ivy]

yeah have done

Okay so if i bought that regalia

what else would i upgrade id still have 40 divs

[dawn heath]

not sure I don't play wolf

[upbeat ivy]

ME NEITHER THIS IS BEAR

[dawn heath]

socket charge regulation with leftover spirit and upgrade boots to 35%, hat to not have reduced attributes, anything else instead. I think it'll be expensive since those are literally near perfect but you got 40 divs. Alternatively look for variants with 2 sockets or put an extra charm in (you're missing a charm slot from campaign)

Most people like the hunt unique charm, freeze charm, stun charm, rarity beetle

gloves are missing +2 to melee skills (important)

[upbeat ivy]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/13d05 I want to know how this guy does 7m dps and i do 700k :(

its the +3 amulet and +2 glove huh

[dawn heath]

Yeah 5 levels is like 70% more dmg

[upbeat ivy]

How is his health so high

is that just titan being a better class

[dawn heath]

I saw a guy with 3 perfect grand spectrums day 3 of the league. Elon Musk's softcore char I guess

[upbeat ivy]

do you think i can survive swapping to a +3 amulet?

[dawn heath]

Only if you swap everything else

[upbeat ivy]

hmm what would need to change

[dawn heath]

Ninja stans also make impossible builds just to show a larger number I wouldn't worry

[upbeat ivy]

i dont get how to swap to it as a shaman and survive

[dawn heath]

Olroths resolve guard might go well with defiance idk. It won't raise your dps though

[upbeat ivy]

yeah my dps is the issue rn

idk how to fix it

i mean like i genuinely dont think 800k average dps is bad but its not enough for pinnacles

Sounds like a tomorrow problem i am tired as hell

[dawn heath]

800k is without buffs no?

[brave furnace]

whats a build you recomend that isnt just a 1 button clear

[brittle anvil]

the classic ED/contagion, plants and storm, atziri's spear these are 2 buttons, or do you want more

[brave furnace]

more buttons to click plz 🙏

[brittle anvil]

damn, maybe some kind of chronomancer build, chrono adds a lot of buttons

[brave furnace]

chronomancer? sounds sick

[brittle anvil]

yeah you get a button to stop time, a button to refresh your cooldowns, but I don't know any specific build tho

[brave furnace]

i was checking the popular builds on youtube and i was trying to find a non 1 button build like the autobomber

already got a druid to high maps so it doesnt need to be a league starter

[upbeat ivy]

that’s without hh/lunar assault

just pounce, roar, calamity rampage

but can’t really get buffs like that on pinnacles

[dawn heath]

rage. U got more than enough dps for a pinnacle t3

[upbeat ivy]

oh no it’s 800k dps a

i’m using rage when rampaging around the boss so

not exactly at full rage often

[pastel forge]

800k dps isnt enough for most t3s?

[upbeat ivy]

idk t3 xesht had 40million hp when i went in 2 player earlier

i don’t think 800k dps is gonna cut it

[pastel forge]

i guess if you are trying to carry group runs or something

[brittle anvil]

well that's 50 seconds to deal 40m damage

[upbeat ivy]

whilst avoiding pinnacle bosses attacks?

considering i have to run in a circle at their feet

it’s difficult

[pastel forge]

i mean, many skills tooltips are straight up inaccurate

like oil barrage

[upbeat ivy]

800k dps is NOT my tooltip lol that’s like 40k…

800k is just me timing killing a boss and dividing its hp by it

[pastel forge]

ah

well not much to be done except better gear i guess

aside from changing builds ofc

[upbeat ivy]

yeah i just don’t know what to replace for more damage because im already toeing the line of survival

[upbeat ivy]

unfortunately the easiest way for me to fix all my issues is to level a titan and give my gear to it because it’s just better than druid

at being a druid

which sucks

[pastel forge]

depends on what type i guess, oracles at least seem to dominate the wolf builds, idk about bear

[jagged wadi]

any poisonburst arrow lords here that can take a look at why my dps is such shite (I know the gear is trash).

https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/3q10ev0u

[hollow bronze]

when building ice wolf, inside pob which skill should i look at for dps increase? nothing seems to increase my dps atm

[livid flume]

does cooldown get ignored when in coc? (for example frostwall in coc, does cooldown get ignored of it?)

[pastel forge]

you mean passive or?

[gaunt ether]

am i being stupid, zealots oath means if i have 100 life regen, and im full hp im regening 100 es per second?

[hollow bronze]

the skill, when i put in a new tailsman nothing changes lol the dps is always worse.. not sure if im missing something

[pastel forge]

default skill you mean? of the talisman

idk could be a pob problem

[hollow bronze]

no im trying to see if this new taiolsman is better for dps but when i click the skills its always red and not green lol

[pastel forge]

ahh\

which 2 talisman are you comparing

[hollow bronze]

mine atm. i have 12div to spend not sure if im looking at the wrong stats when looking lol

[pastel forge]

and the target talisman you were comparing to?

[pastel forge]

your weapon is better than that, what am i missing lol

[hollow bronze]

well im dumb then lol

with my build not sure where to put divs tbh lol..

[pastel forge]

your weapon has both higher phy and fire dps and the other stats are pretty much identical so its a downgrade

[livid flume]

https://poe2db.tw/us/Invocated_Limit

Isn't this just a negative?

[hybrid ocean]

Do we expect these to work with invocated attacks?

[lament sentinel]

has anyone tried instruments of power with unique foci? wondering how the 50% reduced bonuses gained would interact with unique modifiers

[frail fable]

Can I use the weapon set 1/2 skill points if I’m using a QStaff?

Without actually using normal skill points?

[knotty aspen]

im playing explosive shot deadeye, is it better to switch to galvanic shards for more damage or better scaling?

[atomic halo]

depends what the modifier is in question

[tranquil steeple]

whats the best twink levelling build with like no budget rn?

[stone spindle]

hi, does flammibility magnitude on jewels affect minions on infernal legion?

[atomic halo]

some unique modifiers are perfectly scalable and some are not

[atomic halo]

no

[stone spindle]

ty!

[atomic halo]

modifiers to your skills never affect minions' skills

and these stats implicitly only affect your skills

[stone spindle]

how about xoth's pyre, does it affect infernal legion?

[white maple]

So i was watching a video and it said one intresting part which is dont try to force a build on a character thats not intended. That got me thinking since im playing ranger and its main stat is dex, bow and quiver. It wouldnt make sense to go cross bow right? Cause then i have to invest into str points

[wary canopy]

What happens if you have Chaos Inoculation an you sacrifice a percentage of current HP? Instant death or nothing?

[tranquil steeple]

https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/builds/fubgun-twink-ranger-amazon?ws-ngf5-f7d82102-7e77-4a44-ad24-33b67e8ae7bf=activeVariantId%2C3844ae35-22d0-48cd-a1e4-d75af661ffc9

Theres a few supports that have no details can anyone ifnd out what they are?

obviously they are removed

but like some are replaced/have tiers

wondering which ones they are though

[small anvil]

No one can know except perhaps the creator. Old builds have support gems that don't exist in the game anymore or it's name might have changed.

Maybe there's a way to view old data but I don't know how to do that

[fervent ember]

Does Dialla's reservation efficiency work for spectres? Und would it be worth dropping Muster for Dialla's hence dropping all skeletons for more spectres?

[steel lynx]

what builds are people doing for temples? the temple feels ridiclously tanky and unsure what to do

[meager hemlock]

Is there like a guide for building builds?

[lusty surge]

anyone has a good plant build for HCSSF?

[stone spindle]

is there a way to auto switch back to weapon set after a casting a spell?

I set my curses to weapon set 2, all my spells and minions are at set 1

I've binded most my active casts to weapon set 1 but sometimes things get janky, or I lag

or even just forget to swap back and I become a sitting duck because all of my minions are not summoned (I also can't maintain most of my minions in set 2 cause most of my spirit is from my scepter)

[vagrant plinth]

Hey I wanna make a warrior build using talisman and spears, I only plan on getting enough Dex/Int for max level Thunderous Leap/max level Wing Blast. After that its all str. Stat spread wise, is this bad?

Also what's a good way to build stun using Bloodhound's mark? On my recent excursion to level 30 on my merc, I felt like the bleed from Rapis Assault wasn't stack heavy stun for nothing! I had bleed nodes too. How do I get bloodhound mark to really stack some heavy stun? Because I wanna pop it using wing blast 😭

I prefer rapid assault cuz i wanna blow the spears up with thunderous leap.

[white maple]

Guys does it make sense to use fire attunment on a non fire ability? I want my ice concoction skill to do apply 3 elemental dmg

[brittle anvil]

better use the painter gloves

[naive mason]

is anyone using thunderstorm? somehow when i use it enemies don't get drenched or shocked at all

[woven depot]

strange, share pob or ninja if you have it, just in case you have put elemental focus or something in it lmao

[naive mason]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Chatbaran-4680/character/MF_INSANITY___

i tried switching to use it on weapon set 1 as well but it still doesn't work

it is doing damage though

[woven depot]

primal strikes, respect

[naive mason]

someone in global chat said the level is too low

apparently that's the case lol

[woven depot]

that could very well be true

thats how it works for curses and marks as well

[naive mason]

"poe players when they need to read" moment

[woven depot]

does your hand of chayula work properly?

[naive mason]

i think it doesn't as well but i barely use it since i forget it exists lol

[woven depot]

yea

[naive mason]

yep 😭

[woven depot]

well now you know!

[naive mason]

thank you for the help 🙏

primal strikes feel so much better now that thunderstorm can apply shock over and over again

[uncut bay]

no, the stats are fine. increase the damage, get aggravated bleed

[uncut bay]

you dont have to do the final strike, 2 spear stabs 2 primal strikes works too

[naive mason]

but final strike looks cool 😭

[stone spindle]

is there a way to auto switch back to weapon set after a casting a spell?

I set my curses to weapon set 2, all my spells and minions are at set 1

I've binded most my active casts to weapon set 1 but sometimes things get janky, or I lag

or even just forget to swap back and I become a sitting duck because all of my minions are not summoned (I also can't maintain most of my minions in set 2 cause most of my spirit is from my scepter)

[vagrant plinth]

Ay ay capn. How necessary are weapon nodes? I felt super spread out cuz i really want the spear ones at the bottom right, but im starting to think i can really do without

[obtuse citrus]

if a have a skill that can generate multiple of the same charge at the same time and give it charge profusion will it then have multiple chances of giving me a random other charge?

[vagrant plinth]

Side note, the only skill I want stunning is Wing Beat or blast or whatever its called. Should I put Brink on everything but that skill? I noticed i kept popping heavy stun on enemies with skills i wasn't trying to stun with when I tried my first iteration of this build

[worldly stone]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=URUXWBKgNrI&list=WL&index=3

[worldly stone]

can someone explain how hes not getting stunned on a rhoa

[midnight bolt]

do i understand it right that nodes like this still increase the ignite dps since the bigger hit=bigger ignite based off it?

[plain cloud]

Hey, can you still use persistent buffs on Sceptre's Aura skills without the need for extra Spirit ??

[naive mason]

yep

[round pier]

which build might use something like this?

[pastel forge]

yes as long as you hit and burn again during the first burn

[upbeat ivy]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/15165 Is there a way to get rid of DoD and replace it with a +3 amulet whilst gaining more defences elsewhere?

[zinc hawk]

Which class and ascendancy is desired for running flame breath?

I heard shaman gets overshadowed by pathfinder and some other things

[pastel forge]

i ran it on invoker building full crit and it was pretty decent (tooltips 1-2mil w/ 525dps weapon), oracle should work as well if you prefer all the rage nodes at the left side

shaman doesnt seem to support shapeshift too much imo

[zinc hawk]

Ty

[wheat socket]

Hey all. Is it possible to maintain 100% uptime on Lunar Blessing ?

[ruby wadi]

Thinking about rerolling into a gardener, what ascendancy seems to be the choice to grow?

[pastel forge]

i do it with weapon sets on invoker

[wheat socket]

Thank you! I am playing Invoker as well, tried twice the Druid and really disliked it. Died twice on HC

Can you tell me more why is weapon swap important on your setup??

I am still level 55 but hyped about using Lunar Blessing 😂

[pastel forge]

i use it to increase rend buff duration to 31s, along with a bunch of support gem buffs

plus lunar blessing for pretty much 100% uptime

this gem becomes a 1min buff for example

this one only 15s but still very good

frees up gem slots on my main skills for more dps

i get to stack ice bite and bhatair's vengeance together like this even though they are in the same "category"

[pale canopy]

does compounding ignite "reset the duration of every stack" or do old compounded ignites somehow stop applying? flame breath feels like it plateaus on long channels but I can't be sure

[wheat socket]

I’m super clueless about that tech lol but thanks, will get to endgame and try to figure it out

[pastel forge]

a bunch of gems give extra damage buffs when you meet certain conditions like hitting with a crit or freezing the enemy

ice bite and bhatair's vengeance are in the same category so you cant use both in the same skill, using 2 weapon set i can take up skill duration nodes that gives me longer lasting buffs including lunar blessing

normally the buffs last for 5s, with weapon set i get it to 15s for example

[wheat socket]

I see. How many weapons do you use tho, one and then lock set two or you have two weapons?

[pastel forge]

just need 1

but it does lock me out of using non-shapeshift skills

[wheat socket]

Yeah I tried using Shattering Palm and had to equip the staff

But didn’t like it very much and dropped it

[pastel forge]

this is basically my main buffing skill

crit +15% extra fire 15s
freeze with 30 rage = +30% extra cold 61s
attack with power charge = +50% extra lightning 31s

[crisp nimbus]

How to you stack them?

[pastel forge]

bhatair on rend, ice bite on lunar assault

i just click rend every minute to rebuff bhatair

[crisp nimbus]

Oh interesting I didn’t think about using rend for weapon set 2. Currently playing witchhunter. Weapon set 1 is dps and 2 is all freeze build up and AOEA for clear with lunar assault. Might look at rend and some buff duration if I can reach it. I’m generating lots of frenzy and endurance charges currently and was getting power too from a charm so maybe I’ll try that again with rend

[pastel forge]

depends on your build path i guess, there's like 176% increased skill duration in between witch/monk area so thats how i do it

playing invoker so its right there

[crisp nimbus]

Ya nice how many nodes is that? Been thinking of eventually swapping to the 100 weapon skill points so this would fit in nicely

[pastel forge]

might be a bit far for you if you build downwards

[crisp nimbus]

Oh shit ya that’s too far for witchhunter pathing

But rend tech may still work

Since I’m only shredding to get the fake headhunter lineage buff steal once a map basically

[pastel forge]

rend without any duration nodes lasts for 10s so its not as bad as the other gems like blazing crit

[crisp nimbus]

I’ll play around and see

[pastel forge]

you'll need a way to get power charges tho for rend

devour is the easiest one for mapping but it wont work for bosses

[crisp nimbus]

Ya I have the charm that gives when taking cold dam that gives a power charge. I won’t have a lot of uptime but for what I’m using now it’s a net benefit if it’s up at all just swapping shred to rend on my offset

[pastel forge]

since i get a bunch of free spirit as invoker, i just use this for power charges at bosses

roll around a bunch and let the boss hit them, easy power chages

[crisp nimbus]

True I could use that instead of herald of thunder probably but using charge regulation so it may eat them all anyways

[pastel forge]

i dropped charged regulation cause the charges were a pain to maintain for bosses

[crisp nimbus]

Ya I think with that much added damage it’s worth idk if I could get the uptime

[daring veldt]

hey! is anyone doing a ice shot build? How good is it for juiced mapping and bossing? What ascendancy can do that build well?

[languid kindle]

What are some good blood mage builds like which skills they usually build and is it possible to make a curse or aura centric build

[upbeat ivy]

Any knowledgeable bear gamers

i need help with my build

[upbeat ivy]

CoC comet

thats like THE blood mage build

[languid kindle]

Coc it’s crit on cast right ?
Isn’t it hell of expensive

[round pier]

cast on crit, it's from spirit gem

are there builds where you just run with some large aoe plague that pops enemies?

[signal wing]

hello can i ask whats this skill and where to find it?

[pearl vine]

is quality better than a lvl corrupt on cast on crit? and do spell put into cast on crit benefit from quality or just levels?

[upbeat ivy]

shaman ascendancy

[regal zinc]

for plants, would it not be better to have a wand+offhand since wands can roll +6 to physical spell skills too?

[fading flicker]

yall think would be cheaper to get entangle bloodmage going or shield wall titan ? i wanna prog maps q_q

[celest oxide]

Constricting Command just needs to be 4 fewer now right?

5 fewer doesn't do anything?

[lavish ivy]

I want to get a Firestorm Sorc going, the buffs sound super fun

But I have 3 characters already going, a tornado druid, plant druid, and a djinn sorc

[stoic kindle]

which draught should i take in act 3 im a witch

[crisp nimbus]

This rend tech works great thanks for the tip!

Is there anyway to convert physical damage taken to cold specifically?

[bitter cave]

Inspriring Ally gives increase damage to companion also applies to youself, but game tooltip doesnt show change, but PoB does. Do I trust PoB or game lmao

[flat jungle]

does pinnacle of power get scaled by increased duration?

[lethal epoch]

can voltaxic rift with lightning arrow + tul's stillness lineage support gem work to freeze bosses?

wondering if this would work because the shock + freeze + DoT damage would be pretty cool

snipe also consumes freeze for extra damage

[fringe lagoon]

No reason to believe there is a bug, trust pob and the game working as intended. Tooltip does not account for many other things anyway

[fossil magnet]

Hey my mates playing rend wyvern , we're having difficulties deciding shat to anoint on his necklace. Anybody got something good? He's pretty stat starved

[fringe lagoon]

Can use pob to automatically find highest DPS or defences nodes

[upbeat ivy]

150div budget, whats the best build for clearing and t3 pinnacles/uber pinnacles i can get

[final fern]

Is there a way to regen life with spells outside of Blood Mage? I wanna play oracle with blackflame covenant and the hidden nodes that increase chaos dmg but also convert some mana cost to life

[fringe lagoon]

Lot of viable builds for that budget, personally I like WH twister, check out https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile2builds/comments/1py1149/witchhunter_whirling_slash_twister/

[formal mountain]

Im at a point with my sorceress where i can have 3 buffs turned on. Im playing lightning and i already use Mana remnants and Arctic armor. But now i can see some use Blasphemy, others Siphon elements or elemental invocation. Im a bit lost

[upbeat ivy]

im thinking oracle CoC comet

cus of the new node inevitable crits

[versed pasture]

What's a good build to start ssf as?

[cedar aspen]

I don’t know about converting mana cost to life, but you can grab the arcane surge nodes near the start of the tree, and then the arcane surge gives life instead of mana just above Mind over Matter?

[final fern]

Ohh didnt know this existed, but I dont think it will suffice. I just found the convenant altar robe though where you can do the vaal corrupt thing and it can have spell dmg leeched as life on it

[austere veldt]

Does the echoing thunder node work if I have a tamed beast with trail of lightning?

[cedar aspen]

Oh there you go then! Well if you change your mind there’s options on the tree. I’m going to try it out with my build later on

[edgy marten]

what are some chill tanky builds for t15 farming i have 20 div, im thinking of infernalist minions

[reef hedge]

hello there titan's i wanna play a new build, and want to run temple. but unsure of what suits it best ? anyone have anything to recommend? was looking on kingkon stamped build, but have a feeeling it wwould struggle on it fara out . appricate all tips. and happy new year for those 🙂

[candid fossil]

anyone play ember fusilade have a good starter build thats not 300+ divs

[whole epoch]

what's a good bossing build with a reasonable budget?

[dawn sage]

Guys, is "Inspiring ally" bugged in PoB ? Just allocating the 5 nodes leading to it says it boosts my DPS by 25 %, but the nodes are just simple "increased" nodes, when I already have 175% increased in total

[wooden delta]

Chaos damage increase percentages on rings do affect poison damage right?

[woven depot]

Nope

poison damage scales from the hit that causes it, so if that hit is chaos damage then it could be worthwhile but it doesn’t scale the poison damage on its own

The same is true for passive nodes on the tree

No point going chaos nodes if you aren’t doing chaos damage

[wooden delta]

Yikes, so none of the chaos damage nodes improve the poison dmg

[woven depot]

Nope:/

[woven depot]

damaging ailments in Poe 2 are all about scaling the hit that causes them, so things like crit becomes very important

Which is why Plasma Blast is one of the popular meme skills to reach dot cap with

Big Hit Big Dot

[wooden delta]

I get it, so that ring wasn’t as valuable as i thought

[woven depot]

probably not

[wild rapids]

Hey guys, which one is a better one, considering I'm using Rend (melee skill)
I can technically use the 2 socket one for more attack speed but not sure what would be better in terms of DPS

[languid kindle]

How expensive will a bloodmage coc build be

[toxic beacon]

The basic version shouldn't be that expensive

The really high end version is probably the most expensive build in the game though

[languid kindle]

Ok

What are some good caster builds for witch or something else

[fading flicker]

titan nearing maps... still dunno if i should reroll lich into bm entangle or spark.. tho would need to respecc, buy all gear etc so titan might be less hassle to do but i want both

[flat jungle]

WHY CANT I WEAPON SWAPP ADONIAS AH

[dreamy valley]

what's a good, easy build i can set-up for about 50 divs?

[upbeat ivy]

Could someone help me pick a staff to buy for my CoC build please?

[uncut bay]

sure, you have PoB?

[upbeat ivy]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/vaal/character/JohnsonQAQ-4003/神廟打工人?i=21&search=class%3DOracle%26sort%3Ddps following this rn

this robe doesnt have life cost efficiency but the cheapest that does is 120 div so cant afford, is this one good without it?

[uncut bay]

you should hover over increased damage, cast speed, gain damage, crit passives in pob to see their ratios, but generally a good place to start a weighted search is increased damage 4, crit chance 6, gain damage 20, + to skills 250 or just use + to skills in an end group

cast speed 12, crit damage maybe 8 etc.

[upbeat ivy]

idk how to use the trade website well but ill put that in now

[uncut bay]

seems fine

[upbeat ivy]

how importand is the Life cost efficiency?

i guess it makes sense if im casting skills from my hp

[uncut bay]

helps me a lot, so I guess important

[plain monolith]

Anyone know how Oracle Inevitable Crits and Garukhan's Resolve interact? Will it improve the damage or make it potentially worse?

nvm solved

[dreamy valley]

Hey guys, i'm looking for a new build to start. I currently have 60 div, what is the best things to go for?

[flat jungle]

does adonias buff that allows all ele dmg to cause freeze buildup to cause all ele dmg to chill aswell?

[teal pollen]

I really need some help for my witch hunter, other than rakiatas every cross bow i put in that has more dps than mine on the trade site lowers my damage on POB with exception of like 100 div crossbows

unsure whether to change to tactian for the stun and pin

https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Charismo-1399/character/CrossbowSquiby

[fringe lagoon]

Get better DMG rings, gloves, lvl 21 skills

It's not all about the crossbow

[teal pollen]

is it just worth me making a deadeye lol? Im lookng at the damage on ninja and its literally double damage playing deadeye over and merc class?

[fringe lagoon]

Damage on ninja is not accurate, I might have 200% DMG to ignited enemies and 300% magnitude and that would not be reflected in the dps u see there or in-game tooltip

Dps there is also heavily influenced by attack speed, which is not always relevant if for example u cast a skill every few seconds when clearing

Check pob DPS instead and focus on average hit

[teal pollen]

i think i cant run deadeye because i hate evasion builds i find them so squish

[fringe lagoon]

Witchhunter has excellent defensive tools via ward which u are going to miss when playing deadeye, you can still push much more DPS with your build anyway

[teal pollen]

okay so rings and gloves

and skill gems

[fringe lagoon]

That's where I would start, pob is your friend

[teal pollen]

i use POB all the time haha i just didnt know ninja was so unaccurate

[fringe lagoon]

U can also analyze some top WH builds and compare to yours to understand where are the sources of their higher dps

Check under configuration in pob, there are plenty of settings there u might need to enable

[teal pollen]

thank you very much, different question, in terms of weighted sum for damage to attacks for gloves for example what kind of weight should i use, i usualy just do everything 1 but then lighting has a much higher ratio

if that makes sense?

[fringe lagoon]

I'm not familiar with your build so I can't tell you the weights but u can let pob calculate them under items / trade

If you have a lot of increased fire DMG for instance it will weight fire DMG to attack higher

Can also just experiment urself, under configuration try adding more phys or lightning damage to attack: how does your dps increase?

It's fine to consider changing build or ascendancy but it seems you are still a bit far from the top end you can reach with your build

[fading stone]

IS "I am thunder" ascendancy node a reliable source of shocked ground if I'm using thunderstorm + shock conduction?

[upbeat ivy]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1537b 65 div budget, not sure how to improve damage tbh

[north talon]

Is there any way to scale ignite proliferation? Or is it just stuck at 1.5m and 1 second

[white maple]

Hey guys i know you can make whatever build you want but I saw a video on YouTube saying its best to try to do super crazy shit that completely deviates from the skill itself. So like using lightning arrow but I build fire dmg

Idk if sticking to the recommended is best either

[glad rover]

what happens if fI combine barkskin and adamant recovery?

would barkskin make my energy shield also go up?

[winged rain]

fan the flames + wind dancer/twister/tornado

[north talon]

Well that is spreading ignites not scaling the proliferation mechanic

[winged rain]

it's better than the prolif, there's no other source of prolif that i know of

[languid kindle]

Guys I’m have a bit of dilema I’m playing a build I made myself I’m doing a grenade witch hunter it’s the first time ever I am trying to do my own build and honestly in terms of the power and how well the build is coming I feel like I’m doing quite well and I’m happy with myself for doing it but I’m having a bit of regret cause I’m honestly am not really liking the grenade playstyle I’m only level 30 currently so I’m wandering is it better to respec all passives if possible and cut new skills and pivot to a new build or just make a new character?

[fringe lagoon]

If you are happy to stay mercenary you can respec and change build

[languid kindle]

How mouch does it cost to refund the full tree

Like at level 30 more and so

[fringe lagoon]

Some gold, it gets higher based on level

[languid kindle]

Cause if it costs more than I have will it be worth going to farm gold or just rerolling the char

Let’s see

[fringe lagoon]

You can play bow or spear with Witchhunter I guess

I leveled with whirling slash twister, had a lot of fun

[languid kindle]

Yeah Il check if there’s something else that looks interesting to me

[fringe lagoon]

Pushed the build to very top end endgame

[languid kindle]

If not Il make a different char

hey can anyone give me tips on making my own build? I feel like most people dont know wtf to do as the majority just follows a build guide

[woven beacon]

Does anyone know why all the plant oracle builds on poe ninja that use entangle seem to have atziris acuity equipped but have no source of spell leech? im REALLY confused....

[fringe lagoon]

Learn to pob, plan for defence/offence, identify best improvements for currency invested, draw inspiration from top builds on PoE ninja

I've made my own builds since 0.1 and the experience helped me with the game tremendously

[woven depot]

I don’t see this, if anything The Covenant is more common than acuity for oracles and the combination even more so

[woven beacon]

using entangle?

[woven depot]

Yes

[woven beacon]

am i filtering wrong or something, if I click into these:

they all use atziri's acuity

and have no obvious source of spell leech

this is just filtered by oracle, entangle, and sorted by dps

shrug

[woven depot]

yea you’re right

I was just looking at the overview

for oracles+entangle

And 58% of all using acuity are also using the covenant

[woven beacon]

the cov gives spell leech?

[woven depot]

Ye it does, but strange with all these who don’t use it

[woven beacon]

right

[languid kindle]

I might pivot from my witchhunter till I decide what to do with him and will try to do something more magical based like witch or Druid

[burnt gust]

can rakiata also drop if I do jade isles with like a t10?

[languid kindle]

What you guys say witch or Druid

[wheat socket]

Hey all! Am I gonna get ****ed if I invest in an endgame talisman base of Jade Talisman instead of Maji?

Jad seems to have less crit and attack speed, but the phys damage on it is insane

my build has 0 crit on it btw

[dusky wadi]

is toxic domain any good for poison pathfinder?

[wicked tiger]

Does your build use rage?

[wheat socket]

Yes. I use rage just to turn on Lunars Blessign. I am playing Invoker wolf

[wicked tiger]

Higher rage makes it easier to keep blessing up forever, but if you can manage without the extra rage, then Jade is fine

It’s definitely cheaper to invest

[wheat socket]

I have 30 max rage I think and I managed to keep Blessing forever with 4 passive points on tree for skil duration on a weapon set

thanks! will keep an eye on Jade Talismans too then

[knotty aspen]

which is the best ascendancy for playing galvanic shards/shockburst?

[finite crow]

how do you get the ailiths chimes support gem

[woven scroll]

hi all, does anyone know if the base item level matters to chaos orb for an atziri's disdain? im playing ED+C HCSSF first time

[carmine flicker]

what would be best way for caster single target spell rn?

can trigger spells very often, but nothing good to trigger

[silent shard]

hey guys tryng to make a spark but my single target is kind of low any tips dont have pob but have poeninja link

https://poe.ninja/poe2/builds/vaal/character/Ragfextrem85-5177/Ragesparkx?i=0&search=class%3DStormweaver%26max-level%3D88%26name%3Drage

[old oriole]

can someone tell me if these lines actually help in defense or not

[carmine flicker]

you have no armour
how could it help?

[old oriole]

since it shows between 0% and 62%

so something between?

[wicked tiger]

Estimated, probably on the lower end

[old oriole]

why lower end?

[wicked tiger]

It’s a joke since you have 0 armor

It’s like saying I have an estimated 0-1000 divs in the bank

In reality it’s closer to 0

[old oriole]

fine, good to know at least

[pastel forge]

pretty sure the 62% is just the convert amount you got for that element not the actual deduction

[old oriole]

i'll remove it then

[pastel forge]

eh acually thats physical, idk why its listed like that lol

[old oriole]

so confirmed both useless?

[pastel forge]

with 0 armor yea

its like chance to deflect for evasion

if you have deflect from the tree but 0 evasion to scale that its still 0% deflect

[old oriole]

i see

[sudden stirrup]

m a spark blood mage im using arc and comet in my coc wondering if energy retention is worth using over a damage gem?

[boreal zinc]

Is there a way to share remnants with allies?

[young scarab]

Guys someone that use coc build? With comet? Can help me ? I got some questions

[robust ember]

Hi! Was hoping for some help here. Just got my witch to maps in HC but was looking to try ice shot. Is it at all viable as lich or am I significantly better off rerolling deadeye or ritualist/Amazon?

If lich i was looking to go for low life and the rage gloves. I'm too bad at PoB to actually sim this

[minor tree]

if i slot the same support gem with a cooldown in multiple skills (like mana flare, or coursing current) will they proc independently or is the cooldown shared?

[olive compass]

Do i suck at the game or is 30% crit chance decent enough? I struggle a lot on crit chance, though my crit dmg is high. How much crit chance does builds usualy run?

[fringe lagoon]

30% crit chance probably not high enough to justify a heavy investement in crit dmg

[olive compass]

When you play a martial crut build, how much crit chance you usualy get?

Im warrior btw, if that ghanges anything

[olive compass]

If my math is correct, a 30% chance with 250% dmg gives me more 85% dmg in avarage. So i wouldnt say its not worth it.

[fringe lagoon]

Whether it is "worth it" or not depends how much you have invested (e.g. skill tree points) to get that crit chance and bonus

For every 1% Critical Strike Chance you possess, you should aim for roughly +10% Critical Damage Bonus for optimal returns

As for what is the crit chance of certain builds I'd recommend looking at some builds on poe ninja and analyze their pob

[olive compass]

Oh realy? Thats nice to know. I have 22% crit chance and 250% dmg. So i guess im pretty close to the optimal balance

[fringe lagoon]

I suspect most crit builds are aiming for much higher crit chance (60-70%+), unless Garukhan Resolve is involved

[brisk bridge]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UlDcUMtP1No

How does this build work? Im trying to do it, im like 80-85% of t he way, but nothing is freezing or electrocuting like im seeing on the screen. The build is in the desc.
Also how does he get dps for stampede so high?

I end up just doing the fissures stuff

im too new to this genre to understand with my smooth brain

[olive compass]

Wtf, doesnt even seem possible (for a normal and casual human like me lol). I have both big clusters of crit near warrior and a +3,9 crit on mace. On my mind, all i was missing was a possible +30 crit chance on helmet and amulet.... cant imagine reaching that much of crit chance

[fringe lagoon]

I guess it depends on the ascendency, tree etc.. Looking at some titan builds on poe ninja it seems they get to 32% (which gets increased 50% with garukhan resolve).
For other ascendency like coc stormweaver/bm or deadeye/amazon the crit chance is gonna be much higher though

[old oriole]

40% increased minion hp vs 20 %lightning or fire minion res?

pls

[olive compass]

30% seems possible to get. I didnt know about this gem you mentioned. Seems to double your crit chance, right? It would be amazing to use, but its 100div the price

[warm grove]

Guys someone got a good build for an oracle to farm temple? thx

[cedar aspen]

It does. What weapon are you using?

Warrior will struggle to gain crit chance because if you’re using maces there only 5% crit chance. So you’ll have to invest in a lot of crit chance to make that even worth it, which generally speaking isn’t great.

Talismans are better for crit, as well as Druid skills, some skills have their own crit chance, best one for martial weapons I think is quarter staff.

[olive compass]

I always play warrior so i didnt know different weapons had different crit base. Either way, its one mod on my weapon + something like 10-15 nodes in the tree. All of that for more 80% dmg in average (assuming my math is correct). Seems a good trade. Btw i have 90% thorn crit chance, so even better.

[pastel forge]

yea, spiny talisman can go up to 16% crit with perfect crit roll for example

[minor tree]

if anyone knows whether multiple copies of the same support gem share the same cooldown, please ping me

IE: if i have mana flare (1s cd) on 2 different spells, can it proc twice per second from each spell?

[hallow terrace]

Is attack speed different from skill speed? Atk speed is giving me a bigger bonus compared to skill speed at the same percentage, is atk speed multiplicative?

[flat jungle]

first recoup build im playing still very early but sustain aleady can ramp

[tulip fog]

does this affect elemental infusions? and if so, what effect will it have on them?

[cedar aspen]

The critical hit bonus if your math is right is good, I just wanted you to make sure that most of the affixes on gear and nodes on the passive tree are percentage based INCREASED critical hit chance.

That mean you’re not adding like a flat critical hit chance ‘rate’ to your weapon or your stats, it’s going to go off of the critical hit chance of your weapon and/or skill and/or spell I believe.

So even if you get 100% critical hit chance through the tree and on gear, that means your mace with a base of 5% critical hit chance is going to be 10% crit chance instead.

I’m not saying it’s not possible it’s just a lot of investment to get any mace skill to do critical hits. That’s why they pretty much have aftershock chance instead because aftershock is 100% of the initial slams damage. It’s maces version of crits.

Anyone correct me if I’m wrong of course I just wanted you to know that’s the case if you suddenly thought you weren’t getting the damage or crit hits you thought you were getting.

[olive compass]

Hmmmm thats true. I didnt think on the aftershock as 100% more dmg. Do you know if aftershock III works on channeling skill such as supercharge slam?

[cedar aspen]

Yep.

Jorgen just made a supercharge slam this league too I believe.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=EpXKjQpBWJ0

Like I said, aftershocks are the way forward for extra damage from slam skills used by maces. Because then once you have sufficient aftershock or ancestral boosted slams sorted, you only need to worry about ramping the damage of the initial hit. The rest of the extra damage comes from the slam and aftershock afterwards.

[olive compass]

Hang on... this means i can have 100% on supercharge slam... also my Sunder is slow as hell (im using 2h weapon and i took all reduced attack speed node). I belive i can achieve 100% aftershock easily, and i win 10-15 nodes on the tree + i can get the double accuracy. That sounds like a good trade. Btw having 200% chance of aftershock gives me 2 aftershocks? Or is the cap 100?

[topaz estuary]

attack speed works on grenade skills right?

[light kettle]

hello should i replace this ring with the seed because imm going for a oracle plant driuid build

[celest oxide]

Is there any way to target % or Flat Armour on this

without having a desecrate

or do I need to remove the desecrate

[olive compass]

I dont think it makes the projectile faster. But you will launch it faster though. If you play chaos trial or sekhma and get reduced projectile speed, your granade travels much less.

[brittle anvil]

armor break 3 support

[dusky wadi]

ah thank you

[gray sparrow]

hey somehow reverse chill doesn't work anymore? I am leveling a new character using cold infusion sparks and I equipped sierran and chill reflected glove at level 16 and I'm still getting slowed by chill when it's suppose to reverse the effect on me? anyone know what happens?

[languid kindle]

Guys can I use a wolf build
And make it so it’s pounce skill does cold damage and freezes/chills the mobs and than use a different skill to shatter them

[carmine flicker]

it doesn't unless you somehow add extra effect to those remnants(no idea how)

[low notch]

whats the best build to use in partnership with herald of thunder, already have an established character, want to run something op with herald of thunder for the skill gem MTX

[runic umbra]

can someone help me please. I put this ring on and my dps goes down?

from no ring in the slot to this ring

is this just a glitch?

[brittle anvil]

you have "damage while on full life" somewhere

[runic umbra]

LMAO

thats exactly it

THANK YOU SO MUCH

[cedar aspen]

Well… I don’t think you can really reach 100% aftershock but I believe you can get really close, close enough that it will happen 8-9 times out of 10

What ascendancy are you?

[minor tree]

does anyone know if support gems with a cooldown (like mana flare) share the cooldown if used in multiple skill gems?

aka, if i have mana flare on spark and thunderstorm, can i trigger 2 flares per second?

[sudden stirrup]

ive seen clips of elemental weakness coc build but cant really find a build guild about it can anyone link one plz

[tardy gust]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ssa-l2D-o70&t=500s

I use this one. Cleared Arbiter in a few seconds. Currently pumping about 10m dps

[drifting parcel]

Is Rhoa Mount recommended to use with Deadeye?

[past bramble]

Does general cooldown reduction apply to everything? Seeing different cooldown nodes for command skill and warcries on the tree. (Trying to get near 0 cd with ice djinn)

[oblique marlin]

why this two not working together? ie i must summon 2 wolves from one jump, isnt it?

[dire shuttle]

Man how do people go from this
https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/AlaMicDeRespiraGreu-6728/character/IsrlafkingL
to tuorbo engame what am i missing

[oblique marlin]

what if i have 0 ES no ES at all, this will work?

[dire shuttle]

No, low energy shield by default means when you are lower than 35% of your total ES if your total is 0 you can;t have 35% of it to be considered at low es

[past dust]

is it possible to get decent phys max hit on a pure evasion character?

[pastel forge]

If you can get like 100k Eva, cap deflect and get the invoker passive that applies to Eva to armour maybe? And have like 3k+ life

[past dust]

pain

[pastel forge]

But if you play invoker you might as well go Eva es lol

[patent shell]

hi guys i alrdy made an oracle and ive seen that the Rend skill is rly rly strong scaling especially with powercharge generation but how do i generate powercharge without resonance and snipers mark ?? and is there a strong basic attack version of it with oracle ascendancy ??

[pastel forge]

voll's protector armour
redflare conduit armour
lingering illusion (30 spirit)
pounce + culmination + ailith's chimes (need to build combo)

[celest zealot]

Could use some suggestions of how to make this more viable viable. Running open palm monk+sorceress. I'm thinking just going for high crit and maximum shock uptime so I can spam the siphoning palm? I know it's an odd build but I like the combos and the satisfying mobility/flow.

[hardy relic]

Is it possible to make the curses applied on enemies be inverted?

[upper vine]

anyone know this, on the planner it says to have skeletal warrior but i cant find that ability when searching even tho I have both uncut skillgem 1/2. im new so confusing planner for me https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/p4wnyhof/builds/plant-druid-perfected?weaponSet=set1#build-overview-0

[brittle anvil]

it's from rattling sceptre

[upper vine]

thanks

[celest oxide]

Is Armor applies to Elemental Damage still a good mod if I’m only at like 45% Armor reduction?

My build has Grand Regalia, Constricting Command, and HOWA so I don’t actually stack Armor that high

So wondering if it’s worth crafting my boots with Armor applies to Elemental Damage still or if I’m better off going for a 2nd res

I can cap res without it but it puts a lot of pressure on my Rings

[languid kindle]

Question if I want to add a bit of leech to my build and I want to take nodes on the passive tree and it says increased amount of life leached is it sales if I don’t have a armor or weapon that has a leech line on it ?

[fringe lagoon]

I think you would need some base leech via ring suffix, weapon suffix or maybe weapon rune

[languid kindle]

Yeah that’s my question so don’t touch those notes if I don’t have a source of leech than

Gonna need to think of something than if I want leech

[cedar aspen]

Is there a way I can get Devour to target primed enemies for culling rather than corpses on console?

[glad rover]

not that i have observed, i have to put my mouse directly on them

[slender bone]

Best corrupted mod on Atziri's Contempt?

[autumn lodge]

wanted to try something new and use a weapon that isn't a class's "default" (e.g., mace on warrior, bow on ranger, etc.) so I wanna try Spear on Invoker .. probably either utilizing just lightning or all 3 elements for some added spice. Any ideas/directions? not finding much info on spear invoker ❤️

[teal pollen]

i really need some advice, so here is my poe ninja: https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Charismo-1399/character/CrossbowSquiby

Here is my train of thought, I am doing a lot of physical damage so life leech could be worth specing into. I am thinking of changing back to witch hunter because of how much tankier it is, i wont have pin anymore so i could take those nodes off and put them all into leech, my damage will drop a bit but then i will be a lot tankier because of the ward. Damage wise I have seen some people run Painter's servant gloves with high elemental damage crossbows so then you can run herlad of thunder. I am unsure if this is the way to go or not. Just some advice or a lot of advice would be great

[fringe lagoon]

Depends on build, could be crit, elemental damage to attacks

[old oriole]

can ingenuity boost rings by 92%??

isn't the highest roll like 37%

[kindred cradle]

alright gang flip a coin titan or witch hunter for HCSSF

[hybrid ocean]

There's really not much pressure to use the 'default' for any ascendancy, with only a couple of exceptions (e.g. Smith of Kitava having strength or melee requirements for practically every node)

So I'd look at what Invoker provides in a vacuum, and see what has synergy with that.

Invoker has:

• An easy way to generate elemental ground effects, potentially synergistic with wind skills (twisters, whirling slash etc.)
• Big big buffs to spirit reservation and meta skills, not sure what you'd use these for with a spear though.
• Synergy with critical hits. Tangletongue is a unique spear that comes to mind here, should be quite nice, what with ignoring non-negative resistances. Spearfield is also apparently really good for triggering elemental expression.

@autumn lodge

[low notch]

any cool builds that spec off herald of thunder i should try?

[autumn lodge]

was thinking using all the 3 elemental heralds with wind dancer + something else perhaps, maybe ghost dance, the spirt passive could be good for that. also using .. i think its called lightning thrust or something for elemental exposure? not sure, still cooking. right now just lvling up with lightning spear and projectile dmg

[pastel forge]

triple herald is a bit much probably considering it does nothing at bosses

[hybrid ocean]

Primal strikes?

Well, as mentioned before, if you go the crit route, you'll already ignore resistances natively

[pastel forge]

man what do you even put into feral invocation

most of the good stuff are channeling so cant be used

[hybrid ocean]

I mostly see people use cross slash

[pastel forge]

i guess lunar assault is an option if you want a burst of freeze buildup lmao

[hybrid ocean]

Oh, while browsing spear skills just now, I found something interesting

Do we have a way to apply elemental ailments to our own minions?

There's fireflower Solar Amulet I suppose

[dusky wadi]

how do i search +1 level from corruption on the market?

[autumn lodge]

yeah this is the type of esoteric knowledge that im still trying to grasp. love making builds in general, but not there yet with poe cause i dont know the various interactions of a lot of things.

[hybrid ocean]

Maybe infernal legion?

But that's a burn and not an ignite

Maybe there's a spectre that shocks themselves by default or something?

[hybrid ocean]

I recommend just browsing Poe2db and making liberal use of the search function- it's fun!

[pastel forge]

mm ok so feral invocation doesnt trigger moonbeams from lunar blessing, kinda lame

[teal pollen]

Okay so this i my new pob: https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Charismo-1399/character/CrossbowSquiby

So the witch hunter ward isn't recognised by POB so i need some help. Do i go to WH and take that to be tanky or should i stay tac for the pin? Or if anyone has any ways i can up my survivability without destroying my dps im all ears

[autumn lodge]

Sorc Ward feels great imo, but you need fat defenses for it. and your tac passives are mostly in the south, mine are in the east part, so not sure how to change it up. .. this is what im playing as Witch Hunter. https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/block87-1960/character/JimmyStorm

[teal pollen]

when i put ward on before i changed to tac i ahd like 4500 ward if thats a lot?

[autumn lodge]

thats more than mine XD

[teal pollen]

the main thing i die to is like heavy boss damage so i think that would be easiest

and then i might spec into a lot of life leech as i do a lot of phys i think

[autumn lodge]

now im wondering acolyte over invoker.. for extra spiciness..

[bright pine]

kitava if u want the easiest experience

titan good too tho

[kindred cradle]

I picked merc and I'm kinda using HCSSF to teach myself the game Tryna be careful, read everything, plan everything and spend a lot of time on a char so I'm hype to see what witch hunter can give me

So far I am not using crossbow on merc but the spear I found is pretty nice at the beginning

Not sure at all what skills to use as spear merc I honestly wanna go to fireball

[bright pine]

yeah witchhunter is solid too can work if u play it carefully

[kindred cradle]

Heck yeah

[tight sparrow]

Help please idk which is best for damage

[fading flicker]

could a mf get a decent bloodmage gardener going with 20div or so ?

id imagine so but wanting to confirm a bit, might imbue some coc choir action too to it

[low notch]

any cool builds that spec off herald of thunder i should try?

[wicked tiger]

Flat damage

[somber pendant]

im switching over to quarterstaves on abyssal lich but ive never really played monk past lvl 50

anyone have a good, more recent source of info like useful links and supports... uhh im gunna be using charged staff with whirling assault (i think, not sure yet))

[tight sparrow]

Okay tyty

[stiff meteor]

that surely doesn't wotk with Blood Magic (you have no mana), right?

[teal pollen]

Changed to witch hunter and have ran like 20 maps and its SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better

so comfortable

[autumn lodge]

comfy sorc ward ❤️

[upbeat ivy]

Is Uhtred's omen or Rakiata's a bigger dps for CoC comet builds?

[fringe lagoon]

Sorc ward is the best

Just make sure u don't die from dots..

[upbeat ivy]

what is this

[cedar aspen]

Ascendancy passive on Witchhunter

[upbeat ivy]

but im asking which lineage support gem

is better...

OH HE WASNT ERPLYING TO ME

LOL

[fringe lagoon]

My bad

[fringe lagoon]

Check on pob

[upbeat ivy]

Uhtreds doesnt account on pob

because they dont include archmage in calcs

[fringe lagoon]

Can just manually level the skill no>?

[upbeat ivy]

no like pob doesnt account for archmage at all

so it doesnt matter

if i do that

[fringe lagoon]

If archmage is not supported you should add it manually under configuration anyway

[teal pollen]

I have charms for bleed and ignite

[stiff meteor]

does this reroll block chance as well?

you can use

[covert cargo]

Can anyone tell me why he has socketed cold / fire and lightning and has chaos damage from armour when all of his damage is fire / grenades?

https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Bungtotronvo-5038/character/Rong_tudemboi

[teal pollen]

Its for defences

[stiff meteor]

can I ask why are you using this notable? what part of your defenses "prevent" damage? nvm I got it, you have no energy shield

[teal pollen]

so its 40% of armour applies to incoming lightning damage

[covert cargo]

Ohhhh I thought it was an offensive stat thanks

[teal pollen]

i wish lmao i would be doing SOOOOOOOOO much damage if so haha

[covert cargo]

Ya I’m doing the build now but not sure how to scale up from here and dang I ususally resistance cap with sockets but can’t with his buildset

Here is my build if familiar with totem warbringer I’d appreciate my “next steps”

[chrome shuttle]

How does Inexorable Critical interact with skills like Hailstorm Rounds?

Does only the first hit critical and the increased critical chance is lost after, or does it persist for the entire duration?

Fragmentation rounds fires 10 fragments/shot, is the increased critical chance applied to all of them, or only the first fragment that connects?

[sage tulip]

Is there a way to build the Sorcefer to do shock, burn,and freeze so I’m doing a full element sort of storm build. I want to be doing a ton of AOE damage and proc all sorts of ailments and just want the world suffer as I have everything trigger off of one skill. Maybe Spark.

[lament isle]

quick question: will ANY skill with the "detonator" tag explode grenades? For example Rolling Magma or Explosive Spear?

[weary bramble]

how do i get this wolf pack gem i dont see it under skill gem

[wicked tiger]

It’s a spirit gem

[thin plinth]

How do I get more spirit?

[stiff meteor]

all the possible ways of gettigna stat are usually listed in wiki https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Spirit
the most common way is though the campaign buffs (100 spirit in total), prefixes on body armor and amulets

[thin plinth]

Oh okay spirit on amulet is what im missing

[upper viper]

Does anyone know this build, and know how hard to got nerfed to the ground?https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/deadrabb1t/builds/0-2-1-thor-mjolner-warp-titan

tried to read thru it, and i'm just fried

[pine willow]

what supports are best to run with entangle when using it as my primary clear skill? Right now have Accelerated Growth, Branching Fissures, Brutality and Armour Break, not sure if anything will give me more damage/dps

[hybrid ocean]

Are there any spectres that self-apply an ailment?

Doesn't particularly matter which one

Trying to concoct a build using Elemental Sundering

[stiff meteor]

you can use a beast companion with a ground effect or with "all hits ignite/shock/chill" mod, those can also get you some useful auras like haste

[hybrid ocean]

Ah, but I want the minion to ignite/shock itself

or other allies, if it's a companion

not enemies

Or at least, not just enemies

So far the only way I can think of is the fireflower amulet

The reason being this skill

[stiff meteor]

there's an infernal legion support gem, maybe you can couple that with minions not dying for 6 seconds after death support

[hybrid ocean]

Yeah

I somehow doubt that works, but I suppose I ought to try it

Since it says 'burn' and not 'ignite'

[stiff meteor]

I still think the tame beast is a better idea, after all the explosion is created around EVERY source of the ailment, and if the minion/beast/spectre only applies it to itself that's only 1 source of AoE

elemental sundering is supposed to capitalize on overlapping AoEs

and I very much doubt there is any mob that freezes itself

[hybrid ocean]

true lol, kind of a bit of an intentional 'click'bait on my part

still, even a third of that is great

the idea is to apply it to a minion that can be spammed, and will just reapply the ailment

Since it's not like you get those overlapping AoEs against bosses

[stiff meteor]

that's true, maybe some skills just aren't meant to be any good in single target

[upbeat ivy]

https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Threads-6624/character/Firento Sorry to but in but does anyone know why my comet generation is not as good as i want for mapping

[hybrid ocean]

Yeah, it just seems so fun, and it's only like one unique item away from working, if it can't already

[stiff meteor]

would I be able to recover ES like that?

• [Keystone: Zealot's Oath] Excess life recovery from regeneration is applied to ES
• [Keystone: Scarred Faith] I cannot recover ES from regeneration
• [Keystone: Chaos Inculation] Maximum life is 1

I've seen plenty of builds on poe ninja that have both first two keystones a great ES pool and life regen

Surely that means it shuld works

[sage tulip]

is there a way to build a sorcerer to do all the damages to be able to trigger a storm every second or so to have a fire storm, lightning storm, and ice storm going at the same time from critical hits so the entire map I see is just a hurricane of elements ?

Im planning on using storm weaver and using fire, lightning, and ice damage.

[carmine flicker]

storm have 3 second cooldown, so it's hard to trigger it that often anyway

[sage tulip]

well its been a while since I played but was hoping there was a way to shorten that cooldown as well

[carmine flicker]

also there is no real difference between 3 storms of the same element and 3 different(3 of the same element will be easier to scale, really)

also if you are going stormweaver anyway - druid's lightning storm is damn cool

(thunderstorm)

[sage tulip]

fair but was thinking of doing a tri element sorcerer doing fire lightning and ice damage at the same time while triggering cast on freeze, cast on ignite, and cast on shock and cast on crit so the entire map is just a constant hurricane of aoe element spells

[carmine flicker]

thunderstorm is best skill to tirgger cast on all 3 ailments

ok, two at time at least

also cast on X are one gem now, "cast on elemental ailment"

cause with support it can(and will) shock even when it deal zero lightning damage

so you can convert it all to cold with that ring and freeze everything while shocking

while proccing 100500 comets per second(or w/e you want to proc, anyway)

(best stormweaver nodes are multiplying squall and refracted infusion - first to have 4 thunderstorm at the same time and get insane proc rate, second to quickly farm infusions to proc tri-infusion firestorms)

Guys, I’ve been playing Path of Exile 1 for a few leagues now, but I only played the league mechanic. This season I want to change that, so I’m thinking of playing Tier 17 maps and then Uber Shaper. What build would you recommend that can match what I’m aiming for?

[carmine flicker]

1)wrong channel
2)uber shaper easier than most t17
3)I can give you a couple of ideas if you want in some other channel

[sage tulip]

yeah I need to adjust to this new tree and these limit things and infusions so I got work to do anfd I see that druid has an ascension that has apocalypse which can cast 3 random apocalypse of different elements which sounds fun so maybe switch to druid but sorcerer stormweaver has +1 element limit so need to decide

[sleek monolith]

Thanks for pointing that out. I’d appreciate it if you could share some of your ideas.

[carmine flicker]

apocalypse never worth it IMO
but druid is really good
also weaver have it's perks. +2 to limit is HUGE

Which channel am I supposed to talk in?

Is totem druid viable late game?

Or even doable for that matter

ohh I found a way to make this work rather well. though now not sure what to grab on sorcerer asencdancy storm weaver, should I grab arcane surge or storm's recollection for a tri element sorcerer build

Hi, does getting a skill passive and wearing the equivalent unique gear with same stats stack?
Or its better to refund the skill to another and wear the unique?
Thanks!

[west wharf]

need to give the specific scenario

[graceful ibex]

Like armor Incoming Calamity + to herald dmg, and the passive skill same name +dmg to heralds.

[west wharf]

those will stack
