i got 11 200% in 3.26, one of them was a mageblood but it was like 90d already lol, and when i 5:1 them i got nothing

pseudo axle

cluster jewel which is a giga brain idea

This @steel light

it aint gonna be 3synth for sure tho

#

we wussies fracing 12ps

#

Man I remember the days when we had % aura effect on cluster jewels lmfao

#

that was a FUN league

pseudo axle
#

so broken

shits depressing

pseudo axle
#

I remember doing carrion golem

#

you just run around map and they kill everything

#

oh that reminds me I should grind out like 100 divs and build a voidforge chains build or something

#

every league I gotta try and make a more giga broken animated weapon build

#

as chris wilson intended

normal hedge

#

That looks free

normal hedge

any map is free for glad cws

dont even need to read

Also y'all think Bloodnotch gets nuked?

thats real effort

Hello everyone, there is any person, expert from aurabots? Can some one confirm this is the breakpoints of aura effect ?

100, 120, 125, 134, 140, 150, 160, 167, 175, 180, 200 ?

It means lets say if i have 111% inc hatred effect aura, then 111% will do the same as 113% ? on 120% the dmg will increase or im thinking incorrectly?

🪨 🔵 = 🤢

normal hedge
#

🤔

split maple
#

That sounds like poe2 for some reason

pseudo axle
#

Hmm. I wonder if there are any fringe farming interactions that haven't been cottoned on yet.

normal hedge
#

they dont have hatred in poe2

#

i think

split maple
#

Oh poor fucks

#

Forgot they don't have auras

pseudo axle
#

yeah they dont get to have fun in poe 2

normal hedge
#

if i could i would choose to not have hatred in poe1 aswell

#

lol

silent leaf
pseudo axle
#

actually thats a lie poe 2 is fun

silent leaf
#

Kidney stones = sick?

thick goblet
pseudo axle
#

and yeah hatred has always been a dumb aura

#

but it makes cold-convert minions work

#

so dont take it from me plz

back home, 32 free points to go along with crop rotation UHM

split pagoda
#

i think I may have played more 0.4 than 3.27 xdd

#

actually idk maybe not

#

3.27 wasnt the greatest of leagues tho imo

split maple
#

What i am rly missing this leg is gauntlet

icy swan
#

hmm idk if fross is better than evi
feels to slow dot expiring maybe need to speed up it

And loot

split maple
pseudo axle
#

if so then idk, do a maven setup?

#

I'd minimize the amount of stops you have to make in a map

#

alternatively, memory strands/memory maps

#

tier 16.5s are good

pure loom
#

about hatred -

#

Is that true? over 100% phys dmg as cold = uselles in aura effect?

pseudo axle
#

yes

#

wait no

#

which stat are you referring to

#

Physical damage converted to cold is useless over 100%

#

but extra physical as cold damage is uncapped and scales infinitely

#

@pure loom does that answer your question

split maple
#

hatred is "You and nearby allies gain (30-39)% of Physical Damage as Extra Cold Damage"

#

so shouldnt be caped

pseudo axle
#

yeah no that works with extra effectiveness

#

thats how aurastacking works

#

unless they capped extra aura effect arbitrarily?

pure loom
#

and lvl 24 hatred gem, have any breakpoints?

#

asking because not sure if take corrupted mageblood with hatred or grace

split maple
#

well when in doubt get mageblood with both

silent leaf
#

When have we stopped using Megablood instead

#

Megablood Pog cult

pure loom
#

i need attributes on aurabot

#

so attributes+grace or hatred

#

so hatred scalling infinite?

#

more effect=better=more dmg yes?

split maple
#

i mean just do the math

#

40% * your aura effect with and without belt

#

truncate decimals

pure loom
#

i prefer answer from expeirenced player

pulsar dune
#

436% inc aura effect is wild

pseudo axle
#

what are you, playing on standard?

#

I mean the breakpoint quite literally kinda depends on what exactly the starting conditions of the equation are

#

so its hard to do the math for you

#

nor do I have the time to do that, but essentially, yes, bigger number = better

#

if you have a some break points where the efficiency doesn't matter on hatred, it might matter on other auras you're running

pulsar dune
#

I don't think there are relevant breakpoints for hatred at this magnitude

split maple
#

why dont you like import your pob with each mageblood corrupt into party tab in pob of your carry

#

and compare numbers

pulsar dune
#

+-1% won't matter

pseudo axle
#

at some point you just go 'good enough' and accept rounding errors

scenic delta
#

Anyone got any fun ideas if we get phrecis ascendencies? Lots of uniques didn't exist back then and 16.5s didn't either

pseudo axle
#

if your build tolerances are that tight then you either need to get better at the math or find someone who can dedicatedly build doctor

split maple
#

oooh mfa whisperer got some new toys right

pseudo axle
#

are we getting bloodline ascendencies with phrecia too

scenic delta
#

Yeah idk if we would get foulborn uniques

split maple
#

sure if you can do gauntlet simul you get bloodline 😄

pseudo axle
#

also I'm assuming the phrecia event will probabbly be void + loot spam?

scenic delta
#

Idk, phrecia was all about stacking map effect so...

#

They kinda removed all of that and risk scarabs

split maple
#

phrecia still had limit=5 1mod risks mmm

#

not as crazy as mercs

scenic delta
#

Yeah it was like 200 effect

#

Whispers of infinity dex stacking whisperer

split maple
#

mybe some lightning res stack for mana

scenic delta
#

They're both amulets lol

split maple
#

yeah instead of whispers

scenic delta
#

Really depends on foulborns bc we also didn't have the boss drops

pseudo axle
#

oh if foulborns aren't in that would kinda suck

#

unless they do something weird and wacky that isn't on anyone's radar

split maple
#

i mean if settlers town was in phrecia breach tree would have to be in phrecia2

pseudo axle
#

would it? marauderthinking

#

can we get PoE 2 abyss in PoE 1

#

Also we should have an option to pet the Lurking Creature in PoE 2, damnit.

gritty epoch
#

Might as well add Poe2 sanctum and ultimatum

pseudo axle
#

I want to back-port all the new mechanics to poe 1 and leave the gameplay to ruthless mode where it belongs

gritty epoch
#

Nope

polar jacinth
#

Abyss poe 2 feels better than poe 1

pseudo axle
#

I like how they tied unveiling to abyss, it gives it such a unique purpose

polar jacinth
#

Ritual no opinion

gritty epoch
#

Back port will inevitably add Poe2-ness

split maple
#

we already had good abyss

pseudo axle
#

I'd rather see them make allflames more of betrayal's thing to bring allflame prices down, put unveiling with abyss

split maple
#

like pretty recently

polar jacinth
#

Dilerium the map os big you have good space to play around compared to poe 1
I prefer poe2 simulacrum over poe 1

split maple
#

maybe 2 months ago or so

gritty epoch
#

Disagree

polar jacinth
#

Sanctum and sekhemas
Are both fine

pseudo axle
#

I would have played in prior leagues but my computer back then was terrible

#

I got myself a new one for christmas and now I'm playing at good FPS

polar jacinth
#

Most i think would prefer for those content to be seperate from trials

gritty epoch
#

How much does your ram costUHM

pseudo axle
#

I hate lab so please replace lab with sekhema tbh

pseudo axle
polar jacinth
pseudo axle
#

labs are evil and I've hated them since 2.7

polar jacinth
#

I do enjoy them tbh

pseudo axle
#

you youngsters don't understand how bad they were back then

polar jacinth
#

Ultimatum is one of the mechanics i hate in poe 1

split maple
#

"Due to how unpopular sanctum became after loot readjustment we decided to replace lab with it. This is a buff"

pseudo axle
#

back in my day, when chris wilson still had hair, we farmed exalted orbs

polar jacinth
#

I prefer poe 2

gritty epoch
#

After poe2 I appreciate lab more and more

pseudo axle
#

and we liked it

polar jacinth
#

But i didnt play much of them tbf

split maple
#

isnt ultimatum area in poo2 like 5km long

polar jacinth
pseudo axle
#

(this was before exalted orbs and divine orbs were swapped)

#

god I -hate- poe 2 ultimatum with a passion

polar jacinth
#

But both the follow the statue one

pseudo axle
#

well, in 0.1 it was ass, didn't even try it in 0.4 yet

gritty epoch
polar jacinth
#

I wonder if heist and beyond will be added

pseudo axle
#

ESCORT MISSIONS ARE THE DEVIL

split maple
#

yeah fuck that shit

polar jacinth
#

Delve not sure how in poe 2

split maple
#

i like starting round and going for a drink ty very much

polar jacinth
#

Its my fav content from poe1

pseudo axle
#

oh word, Poe 2 delve would probably be lit

#

no pun intended

gritty epoch
#

What about 5 seconds animation to pick up a stone

pseudo axle
#

...wait, that's basically what their end game is right now!

#

that's literally what their fake atlas kinda is!

polar jacinth
#

Going with my hated buid next league
Rf sion
Delving

pseudo axle
#

its just reskinned delve

pseudo axle
#

but even crappier

gritty epoch
#

I rather delve tbh

polar jacinth
#

Delve and heist are just pure awsome man

pseudo axle
#

I dont like the poe 2 endgame. It was cool for like a week. But the atlas is PAIN to navigate

split maple
#

heist yeah, delve idk man

polar jacinth
#

What endgame

split maple
#

i miss azuirte in map

polar jacinth
#

Was good extra currency

pseudo axle
#

thats the one thing I hate about some of these league mechanics every league, just leveling them up is zz

polar jacinth
#

I just want guild content in poe 2 speaific for guilds

#

But that will never happen

silent leaf
#

i like it

#

make the game worse

polar jacinth
#

Why woild it make the game worse

silent leaf
#

i hope it dies by this year

gritty epoch
#

Let Poe2 bomb and we get poe3

silent leaf
#

fr

polar jacinth
#

If they keep making poe 2 better
Its gona be good
But might take years for that to happen

brazen vector
#

Poo3 will be worse even more

split maple
#

We already have poe3 tho

polar jacinth
#

I have not even came across one citadel

gritty epoch
#

They ain't fixing that shit imo

brazen vector
#

You got to change the mindset of the lead devs for poo3 to be good

polar jacinth
#

And what else of an end game is there in poe 2

silent leaf
#

how to make poe2 endgame playable:

solution GGG came up with:
PoE1's scarab system

#

gee who wouldve thought what aint broken dont fix it

split maple
#

They Just Got sextants

#

Give them time

polar jacinth
#

Ya i prefer scarabs over tablets

brazen vector
#

They still didnt make the map slot a 1x1 slot

gritty epoch
silent leaf
#

melee was dogshit state when poe2 released

#

lets make poe2

#

melee:
FIVE. SECOND. SUNDER.

gritty epoch
#

U mean mace

silent leaf
#

is there anything else

gritty epoch
#

Quarterstaff

silent leaf
#

axe and sword is nowhere no?

#

oh

#

right that

split maple
#

that monk attristacker thingie was fun

gritty epoch
#

0.2second attack time Vs 5 seconds attack time

#

They do same damage per hit

icy swan
gritty epoch
#

Mace: 1aps base
Attack speed mod: weighted
Skills: 0.4 speed

GGG: let's add +1 seconds total attack time and hidden totem mod so that even if u get 1000% as it's still capped

silent leaf
#

ye dunno what they were smoking

#

i really did expect poe2 to have very reactive and fluid combat

#

like idk, warframe but arpg and no flying around

#

instead what i got was i cant fucking react to shit

gritty epoch
#

Auto attack is viable!!
Says deadeyes spamming rods and never ever used autoattack

silent leaf
#

poe1 you can at least react with a leapslam or attack

silent leaf
gritty epoch
#

Jonathan obviously

silent leaf
#

or the ones that pampered / spoiled archetype

#

or whining about everything while having,

everything

#

people like fubgun and his goons saying buff bows

#

while having nimis and +3 proj bullshit

gritty epoch
#

Some ppl actually discovered melee is bad since they tried bear this league, but mace warrior is like 5x worse than bear imo

normal hedge
#

the best bow skill dont even use nimis

split maple
#

i mean bows are kinda in sad shape rn

normal hedge
#

And the ones that use nimis, +proj dont means more dmg

silent leaf
#

eh kinda ig

gritty epoch
#

They buffed sunder attack speed for 0.35 to 0.4 that should help massively

silent leaf
#

ok so you are still forced to use manual attack

#

nice going ggg

gritty epoch
#

Two leagues ago they added some attack speed to sunder or something but added 0.5 total attack time shrugR

#

I have given up atp

How do u do prince without autoattack

silent leaf
#

reap is in poe2?

#

wtf is prince

gritty epoch
#

Like your fastest slam with attack speed investment is like 2seconds

silent leaf
#

i havent touched the game or consume content since 0.1 lmao

gritty epoch
#

Prince can kill u on 1 second

normal hedge

reap is a staff skill implicit

I'm a 2h souls guy so shrugR

silent leaf
#

strength goes big number

#

ooga booga attack once

split pagoda
#

shield wall warrior is basically the slam build of poe2

#

super strong early, scales extremely fast

#

but caps out eventually compared to high investment builds

normal hedge
#

its so braindead you can facetank all bosses

#

during campaign

gritty epoch
#

Look, I dropped like 3 phy runes by then and two of them I used on act 1 mace. Spent my 2 regals hitting some dog shit.

silent leaf
#

INVOLUNTARY RUTHLESS

gritty epoch
#

Mistake to trust Jonathans words

split pagoda
#

yeah idk about maces

gritty epoch
#

you should spend your exalts and regals to craft in campaign

silent leaf
#

thank god

#

we still have mark in poe1

proud talon
#

So hey, I'm not sure I'm gonna be playing poe 1 for a while but I don't want to lose my settings. If I just delete the content.ggpk file next time I run the launcher it'll install it again right?

we have no idea what files does in poe1

besides filter files

oooh

I'd love to play a endless something something

hybrid harness
#

any endless farm would be abused

gritty epoch
pseudo axle
hybrid harness
#

oh ur talking about events

pseudo axle
#

I don't think I've ever done endless delve before so that'd be cool

hybrid harness
#

thought he wanted a new mechanic

pseudo axle
#

just give me the ability to mod Path of Exile in 20 years and I'll be happy

hybrid harness
#

yea I'd love an event while waiting for 3.28

split maple
#

gauntlet would be nice

pseudo axle
#

I can finally undo the headhunter nerf xd

#

I hope they don't do a week of races or something like that

hybrid harness
#

wouldnt mind another phrecia/idol one

pseudo axle
#

that'd be kinda lame

silent leaf
#

empyrian

hybrid harness
#

yea thats the first thing that popped into my mind

pseudo axle
#

has anyone here done solo allflame farming before btw?

hybrid harness
#

when he said endless

pseudo axle
#

ethereal allflame stuff that is

#

I feel like I've hit a point where I break even on the maps but I don't feel like I've seen profit yet, and I'm wondering where the difference is coming from

#

unless I'm just maybe not seeing something

#

unless it just varies wildly with some maps bringing in 20div of profit and others being a lot less idk

#

haven't done a ton of them yet since they're obviously fairly expensive maps to run

split pagoda
#

hopefully for 3.28

#

seems like ziz is hosting them every other league or so now

silent leaf
#

isnt it all league?

#

i remember 3.26 had a gauntlet no?

split maple
#

it would be interesting with ee t0

silent leaf
#

oh nvm 3.24

split maple
#

& if anyone would manage to get accustacker of the ground in that timeframe

silent leaf
#

didnt get one

split pagoda
#

yeah and settlers was a year long kek

OH NO ANYWAY

turns out u can slap EE on alot of things and do fine kek

#

altho ngl that shit was hard carried by merc

#

in merc gauntlet

split maple
#

i droped ee like yday and idk if there is anything i would rly want to try with it this league

#

kinda nerfed too much

split pagoda
#

yeah evis is good but like the traditional strike builds are so zdps its sad

#

idk if an ee build would even be the gauntlet winner if there was one this league, even looking aside from it being t0

small tapir
#

anyone know of a private league me and my friend can do a duoselfound or trade?

split maple
#

accustack feels just a tad to finnicy to pull off in a week

split pagoda
#

yeah it would actually be super interesting to have gauntlet this league

split maple
#

life builds got a few new toys too

split pagoda
#

i know soul would do well with a bleed boneshatter build again

#

but I cant see him getting close to a full clear still

#

need that blue life lol

split maple
#

i realized yday after a month of ci that molten xophgraft dont work on ci

#

lil defensive niceties like that

split pagoda
#

im pretty sure gauntlet this league would be a 10day event even for ben

#

not 3-4day clear like previous ones

#

like ig u just start slams, farm for 8 days and reroll into w/e es build ur able to assemble in that time

kindred silo
#

i would be extremely suprised if it took less than 4 days

#

more than

#

gearing is so much easier with tree

split pagoda
#

id be shocked if it was sub4 days lol

#

no u had recombs before anyways

kindred silo
#

and u just roll some life based build with deli node

split maple
#

tree wont birth 12p int clusters

#

hmm deli slammer would be an idea

#

ben pobed that

kindred silo
#

idk about slammer

split pagoda
#

i played too much poe2 actually forgot about the new ascendancies lol

kindred silo
#

can u block cap with it

#

i guess maybe berserker can go w/o it

pseudo axle
#

the bloodline ascendencies are so cool

split pagoda
#

yeah deli life build is possible but I dont think its full clearing

pseudo axle
#

you know what would be cool? fully itemized ascendencies

#

or itemized skill trees templarLul

kindred silo
#

also foulborn items r kinda bonkers

pseudo axle
#

I need to farm for a foulborn headhunter, I think it might be better for my slammer than regular headhunter, specifically vs bosses

kindred silo
#

like roll life stack ignite build

#

idk how rare rathpith is

split maple
#

t1 iirc?

#

oh no its t2

#

thats treeable allright

split pagoda
#

yeah itd be most interesting gauntlet in awhile thats for sure

loud geyser
#

Do we have foulborn orb of chance

#

So we can chance our own uniques into fb

#

Working on already set uniques or white bases

#

Chance to destroy or create foulb

kindred silo
loud geyser
#

Yeah

#

Rip then

#

Would be cool to have a slam method

split maple

did u get that just now

split maple

I forget what my best div card pull ever was

it might have been a lock?

split pagoda
#

from unique belt div card is crazy

split maple
#

4th t0 this leg, i prolly should stop complaining about lack of juice

split pagoda

think I had 2 t0s in the time I played this league, both straight to the duster lol

from natural drop that is

lean urchin
#

ive had a t1, arkalis fang

split maple

mine was hh from tree, squire gamba from half a stack of cards in ritual, ee from dunes boss lol and now this

hybrid harness

got HH from gwennen and MB from ancient orb this league. yet to get either as a natty drop though

normal hedge

well, not for mapping

ancient sorrel

What is the real hidden power of sacrifice support?
Each time i try to build around, with rathpith, disso and blightwell, PB makes it irrelevant, like 15% dmg support on 4k unreserved life

Kboc hiero and cws chief

#

Prolly gonna slap it on cws to stop worrying about drought for now then start thinking bout that lightning res stack thing

ya maybe gonna want another build to get full value out of it, I assume u use hh on kboc

Yea

I do love traitor but mb good kek

boy back in the day they sure did have janky ways of juicing maps

whats the ... positive part of this?

Can drop temple moded stuff

what the hell is that enchant

i've never seen that

Kirac mission

spice pecan
#

thats brazy

split maple
#

It's like you click Alva and incursion mobs start appearing next to you

Like breach if it was good

#

But even less loot

spice pecan
#

the second line is something I would have expected to read on the krangled dyadic resonator

#

lmao

pseudo axle
#

man remember breach

#

I remember breach

#

then they deleted it

spice pecan
#

when are we getting a purple league mechanic

pseudo axle
#

I can't even listen to Purple Rain now because of the PTSD this league has given me

lean urchin
#

prophecy was hecking purple

spice pecan
#

i want to play shrine stacking EK ignite with like 25 breaches in the map again

split maple
#

We living in antipurple times

#

First hexblast dedged

#

Now breach

pseudo axle
spice pecan
#

fuck you're right, hexblast my beloved

split maple
#

Tomorrow they gonna dedge idk whats left of purple stuff

pulsar dune
#

What would you even play for purple, yeah

spice pecan
#

darkshard totem mtx Pogott

#

its kind of purple

#

other than that you have to play the best skill in the game, voltaxic burst

#

which unironically is quite good on pizza sticks or conner's incinerate build

pseudo axle
#

does each instance of voltaxic burst intensification stack seperately, if they're on different skills?

#

like if I had an auto-cast setup on one and a big DPS alternate

spice pecan
#

it only cares about how many total casts are queued iirc

pseudo axle
#

I remember long ago theorising some kind of Maloney's Mechanism shenanigan

spice pecan
#

i think it all goes into one buff

pseudo axle
#

with voltaxic arc

pulsar dune
#

People do brand recaller to stack and selfcast for damage

spice pecan
#

yeah, surgeon general had a video about it recently

pseudo axle
#

not voltaxic arc, uh

#

the name of the bow

spice pecan
#

voltaxic rift

pseudo axle
#

that started the chaos lightning convert

pulsar dune
#

Rift

pseudo axle
#

that thing

#

yes

#

I'm sure we have FAR superior conversion technology now

pulsar dune
#

Honestly that's kinda the most annoying bit of voltaxic burst, but IG Lycia bloodline is available now

spice pecan
#

lycia bloodline can make burst straight do 100% chaos

pulsar dune
#

Or you FF assassin's poison node

spice pecan
#

poison voltaxic burst sounds so unbelievably cursed lmao

pulsar dune
#

Or was it hit only, idr

#

Wait to stack up, then wait for poison

#

There are also the new foulborn jewels

#

Which probably do this

pseudo axle
#

we also have foulborn blue nightmare

#

and the maligaro belt if we're truly desperate

#

you know what would be a fun league?

#

or not even a league but like a uh, void event?

#

let us recombine or craft unique items or something

#

or add unique mods to the rare item affix pool

#

for a void league

pulsar dune
#

So many cool unique weapons may finally end up relevant

pseudo axle
#

it would be fairly easy to do, I think?

#

you wouldn't need to necessarily develop new assets, just shuffle around database entries

#

(highly simplifying the work flow that would go into this)

silent leaf
#

PoE1 is developed by 2 interns rn

#
  • 1 cs support
pseudo axle
#

yeah but I mean they put together keepers and honestly like...you could tell a vision was there it just did not bake fully

silent leaf
#
  • 1 trade website maintenance guy
pseudo axle
#

whereas vaal temple was heavily overcooked

#

I think vaal temple in poe 2 was way too complicated for what it needed to be

lean urchin
#

poe 2 is for thinkers, not me

pseudo axle
#

is there any combination of mods on the vorana boots that are useful

#

theory crafting a build

#

basically the idea is "oops all abyssal sockets"

spice pecan
#

replica shroud of the lightless Pogott

pseudo axle
#

is "gain extra as" converted?

#

it should be right

#

I always forget how that works

spice pecan
#

i think extra as is added after conversion?

#

i actually don't know

pseudo axle
#

"Gain as Extra is calculated on the source damage before it gets converted away by Converted to, and is thus not affected by it."

spice pecan
#

rip

pseudo axle
#

right okay

#

no its still like, good, its just that if I were to convert I'd need to make sure all the 'gain as extra' and the intended damage type are aligned

#

so if everything is getting converted to say, cold, I'd want 'extra phys as cold'

#

so I can just scale cold with % and more modifiers

pulsar dune
#

I'd probably play phys convert builds tri-ele with trinity support ngl

spice pecan
#

why tri-ele when you can get 100% from tree + gloves?

pseudo axle
pulsar dune
#

For minions it's different, yeah

pseudo axle
#

abyss jewel stacking with the aul ascendency is kinda the idea

#

with vorana boots

pulsar dune
#

Tho do you even care about minion damage types that much? Outside of lightning+doryani or smth.

pseudo axle
#

if I'm going animate weapon, absolutely

#

so I'm kinda feeling out the aul thing but I might just pivot to chains of command if I can't find something that cracks the build wide open

#

oh, hm, aul might truly suck for minions, actually

#

I was thinking it might be good for defenses and aura effectiveness but ehhh

#

I'd have to get like 3 pacifism which is a useless waste of a jewel slot.

#

well, maybe it wouldn't be, idk.

spice pecan
#

pacifism? are we using ahn's contempt or something

pseudo axle
#

no, the idea is to get more hatred effectiveness for cold conversion

#

this build is stacking a ton of flat phys abyssal jewels for minions, ideally

pulsar dune
pseudo axle
#

convert to cold

spice pecan
#

oh, right

pulsar dune
#

Oh I see

spice pecan
#

forgot about that part of aul

pseudo axle
#

or ranged animate weapon idk

spice pecan
#

would ranged animate weapon with bladefall of tartar work

pseudo axle
#

alternatively I could make it a uhhh

#

TRULY unhinged build

#

wormblaster dancing duo

#

y'all don't understand I have YEARS of extremely deep minion lore buried in my brain

#

I figured out brittle crit tech before ggg took it away from us

#

necromatic aegis + old brittle shield from heist

#

was fun

spice pecan
#

that's pretty funny

pseudo axle
#

that shield gave you like +15% flat crit chance, combined with old minion power charges and you had crit capped

silent leaf
#

GGG I pray next league has crafting league mechanic like tree

pseudo axle
#

from one block

#

vs a boss or whatever

#

that and fortress covenant was real

#

...I wonder if its possible to do this as a TRULY gem-less build, and just get hatred from some non-gem source, lol

silent leaf
#

Relic of the pact

#

P sure it is

dry tree
#

Relic uses gems

#

Not very many, but you do use some

pseudo axle
#

hmm...shame that lightpoacher sucks

#

I mean, we could do wraithlord but that feels boring?

#

plus spectres are so insanely finnicky

lean urchin
#

pokedex

pseudo axle
#

hale negator and defiance of destiny marauderthinking

#

its like peanut butter and jelly

#

defiance stops the shotgunning and hale stops the hueg nonsense

#

well, doesn't stop TRUE one-shots but not much stops those anyway

#

and honestly that just means I need to dodge more

pulsar dune
#

Wait does hale negator proc n times for n charges lost at once?

pseudo axle
#

so if I have 10 hale negator charges, it gives me back, say, 30% life and es if I take a savage hit?

#

with a well rolled one that is

#

and if I take a hale negator-level hit again 5 seconds after, I'd have 5 charges, so 15% life and ES

#

its really good with hybrid builds

#

I honestly think hale negator is slept on

#

just not many builds that stack abyss jewels

#

usually only good with conversion/extra-as builds

#

question: how does Toad's Price work?

#

it says utility flasks are disabled, I'm assuming that means no mageblood...but does that also mean no mother's embrace?

pulsar dune
#

I'd assume yes, but I didn't test

pseudo axle
#

thats fair

dry tree
#

Considering that mother's embrace requires the minion to "use" the flask I'd agree it wouldn't work

pseudo axle
#

well, wasn't sure how the game actually worked with it

#

I guess I could try it at some point but that'd be a tiny bit of a pain

#

man if only we could mix bloodline ascendencies

#

I figured out a VERY sick combination if only I could get it to work

#

...how big is 6 meters in poe? that doesn't seem like a very wide radius

lean urchin
#

pobbit

spice pecan
pulsar dune
#

6 meters is a bit, you can click frost blades of katabasis at 20qual, that's about their range

pseudo axle
#

oh, ohohohohoh, ohohohohohoho

#

nevermind, I figured it out

#

the minion build

#

the PERFECT ascendency node

#

we're COOKING chat

spice pecan
#

chat, LETHIMCOOK

#

if this isn't necromancer or guardian, i am very intrigued

#

actually even guardian would be cool

pseudo axle
#

sadly I don't think this is going to work quite the way I want it to

#

I'm getting closer though I think

#

trying to figure out umbral army shenanigans

#

...wait, hold on...bitterbind point with this build is almost, like...capped spell crit with 10 spectres

spice pecan
#

spectre builds Despairge

#

extreme stress and paranoia Despairge

pseudo axle
#

no this would be a raise spectre of transience build

#

the idea is we'd be doing all the fighting and the spectres are just kind of there for support and who cares if they die we resummon them

spice pecan
#

ooooh

pseudo axle
#

can you not use soul's wick and raise spectre of transience together?

spice pecan
#

damn, if it had a cooldown you could slap it on automation

#

souls wick is drop disabled

#

so we're going into legacy gear territory

pseudo axle
#

oh they removed it rip

spice pecan
#

yeah SADGE

pseudo axle
#

thats so annoying

#

actually its fine I guess

#

I could use just regular spectres to buff me into the stratosphere

spice pecan
#

but then regular spectres Despairge

pseudo axle
#

I mean I can get like 9 buff spectres with wraithlord

#

thats not nothing

spice pecan
#

i played minions for the first time in 10 years in ssf this league, haven't had an issue with my carnage chieftain at least

#

but i'm scared to death of like misclicking my gloves lmao

pseudo axle
#

lol

spice pecan
#

can you get power charges onto them or something

#

or have them share their power charges with you

#

and then do some power charge stacker stuff, to make up for the crit you lose without soul's wick

#

"Any variants of Soul's Wick are legacy items as it is removed from the corruption transformation (e.g. use vaal orb on the jewel) drop pool in version 3.23.0. However, only jewel that dropped from the monster/divination card, etc. before version 3.20.0, are non-corrupted. "

#

oh that's hilarious; non-corrupted soul's wick are like super legacy

pseudo axle
#

so the idea is go umbral army, wraithlord

#

alternatively there's a route where we go umbral army/hale negator

#

even umbral army lightpoacher

#

which would be kinda sick?

spice pecan
#

holy are we doing spirit charges

#

alkLFG

pseudo axle
#

...ooooohhhhh I think I figured out the tech

#

lightpoacher, block spirit burst, stack flat phys gems, get spectres for umbral army to boost global defenses and act as aura bots

#

I never lose spirit charges this way

spice pecan
#

90% increased global defenses with 9 spectres seems sick

#

that's like, what, 30k ish ES territory

pseudo axle
#

realistically speaking it'd be closer to like, idk

#

less

#

a lot less

#

if I'm not going wraithlord

#

the cool things is, if I'm not going aul, I can have

#

reasonable gems

spice pecan
#

yeah, and you can be one of the 3 people on planet earth who take the catarina bloodline kek

pseudo axle
#

precisely

#

like a real chad

#

but the other cool thing too is, I can go uh

#

the corpsewalk boots

#

with necromancer

spice pecan
#

bubonic trail, or something?

pseudo axle
#

necromancer corpse consumption nodes

spice pecan
#

do the corpse consuming boots trigger those nodes?

#

i mean they should

pseudo axle
#

they do

#

you automate desecrate somehow or any corpse making skill and go to town

spice pecan
#

incursion weapon is like the only way to automate desecrate right

pseudo axle
#

not necessarily?

spice pecan
#

i mean outside of like cwdt shit

pseudo axle
#

so either we get like, capped crit with bitterbind point + wraithlord

#

and that'd give us about 80% defenses

spice pecan
#

there's that one wheel on the ouside of templar area that has inc effect of arcane surge

#

i assume that inc effect doesn't apply to the buff that spectres get?

pseudo axle
#

or we do just, pure 4 spectres, which is 40% defenses, and go the lightpoacher route

#

it depends on if an extra 4 defensive spectres is worth giving up all that phys-as-elemental damage

#

wait, wait, IS THIS A DOOMFLETCH BUILD?

#

oh I think I just reinvented doomfletch

spice pecan
#

it's weapon phys tho

pseudo axle
#

oh did they kill it stacking with abyss jewels

spice pecan
#

oh wait no, wiki says you can scale phys damage

pseudo axle
#

yeah thats what I thought

spice pecan
#

"Scaling added flat Physical Damage is the most efficient way to increase damage with this weapon due to its quadrupled return on investment"

pseudo axle
#

the alternative is voidforge

spice pecan
#

can't use bitterbind with either of those tho

pseudo axle
#

right

#

hmm

#

I need a good one handed weapon if I want bitterbind, not that bitterbind is necessary if we go down this road

gilded hull
#

Looking at PoE2 chat like

pseudo axle
#

lets see what the wand department has in store

spice pecan
#

the best 1h weapon i assume would be like a convoking wand with fractured aggressive/minion damage and maybe temple mod if you want an easy way to automate desecrate

spice pecan
pseudo axle
#

is there a way to convert spell crit to attack crit?

ebon tendon
#

Next poe1 league is gonna b fyre guys

pseudo axle
#

if so I might have stumbled upon something kinda wild

gilded hull
pseudo axle
#

honestly GGG kinda shot themselves in the foot

#

people are overreacting but

#

this was very predictable

spice pecan
pseudo axle
#

hrm

#

I mean I kind of have narrowed down what I want to do, right, I just need to figure out what the last steps are gonna be.

#

honestly the real answer might just be "lol voidforge idiot" but melee? ugh

is arc raiders that good?

scenic delta
#

bro why are they hotfixing poe2 still... 88% of the playerbase is gone...

half junco

Yeah ten times better than Poe as a game and it’s brand new

silent leaf

Like most companies who try to keep spamming extraction shooters

#

One game per 2-3 months

pseudo axle

I mean I'm having fun playing keepers league still and right now I am brewing some REAL weird crap

Tbh Poe is arpg slop that’s slightly less slop than the rest of the slop

spice pecan
half junco

Last good arpg was Diablo 2

scenic delta

@half junco phrecia will be the best league ever released if they allow foulborns, it's going to be the most broken shit

spice pecan

and everyone's melting down as if it affects them, meanwhile like no one in there probably spent the 40+ hours it takes to actually get hit by the change lmao

heady cliff
#

if i understand correctly

ebon tendon

phrecia with all the nerfed farms

wow

Yeah phrecia was the only decent league since sanctum

And that was a mini event

nah mercs league was great too, tbh

Nah mercs was ass

Settlers - mercs was ass yea

the loot and farms were still pretty nice but the in map mechanic isnt really

like

half junco
#

ChatGPT could have figured out a better league than mercs

silent leaf
#

I fucking hated settlers

#

And mercs is kinda fine if not the loot nerf and buff you are supposed to get by having a merc glued to your ass

#

You get less loot on general without mercs

#

But more w mercs

#

And I fucking hated that I need a merc glued to me

scenic delta
half junco

Literally just slapped an npc that follows you around and holds gear

No setup
No need 10 map shittery
No bullshit

Like mercs, but actually mapping oriented

pseudo axle

I...I think I figured out the tech but now I need to figure out how to automate a spell and have it cast ultra fast around me.

silent leaf
#

Instead of "hope you don't get oneshot haha" oriented

scenic delta
#

the problem with phrecia league was trading, we solved that with async

ebon tendon

really mostly looking for a large scarab rework

no more 50 dump tabs of 'they will msg me if its worth something' bullshit and getting pretend afked because the guy found out his 2mirror idol isnt in the right dumptab

Just like last 3 years from ggg have been putting out slop and blaming it on they are working on two games

flint fiber

you have your temple ? you're fine you wanna build it? get fucked

half junco

Gets annoying

silent leaf

Just remove game 2

Lmao

half junco

Like Poe 2 league is slop “well we are working on two games”

silent leaf
#

Like it's so easy to see the solution

half junco
#

Poe league is slop

#

“Well we are working on two games”

silent leaf
#

But they need the money from poe2 cash cow

scenic delta
#

as soon as the main devs of poe2 and poe1 are out they will put better devs in because the game is 100% owned by tencent, which means they wont give up on a cash cow game

the absolute moment that china gets ahold of a game it instantly gets player feedback and just does the shit they want

They love eating it apparently

scenic delta

look at the last ARPG that almost died

silent leaf

Well "eating"

#

Dunno if they actually digest It or no

ebon tendon

oh

lol

spice pecan

because of sony

ebon tendon

what a cute cat i want it

spice pecan
#

you CAN migrate stuff from xbox to pc, but it's one way

silent leaf
#

There's this too

spice pecan
#

so if you bought them on your playstation, they're locked there, and same with pc

scenic delta
#

you know whats funny about phrecia is that the economy will basically feel like settlers because the main abuse in phrecia is that u could scale map effect to the moon, but because they changed both insane mechanics it will feel like u have options between bossing and multiple strats working again

spice pecan
#

well, we would be able to avoid the absolute worst part of phrecia

#

which was trading for idols

half junco
#

Getting rid of loot is one of the most bird brained things about ggg

scenic delta
#

I think they're going to do an item squish

spice pecan
half junco
#

Like yeah we wouldn’t care about getting little loot if the little loot we got was valuable

scenic delta
#

they're probably trying to make a new algo to delete the millions of bases being dropped every map and condense it into higher tier items dropping rather thane verything being able to drop at different ilvls

spice pecan
#

my prediction is that they add another loot goblin mechanic

scenic delta
#

we dont need 150 ilvl 81 crude bows to drop

silent leaf
#

They KNOW that trade will bounce back and fucking stabilize in any economy

#

Affliction OR Kalandra

scenic delta
#

trade will never be stabilized as long as yellow juice is in the game

sinful cove
ebon tendon
half junco
normal hedge

they're targeting ssf players to make their lifes even more miserable

they have to remake harvest to stabilize the economy

spice pecan

as much as it sucks, GGG literally cannot do anything about it unless sony allows them to

scenic delta

@half juncoare u in gorilla rn

because of sony's terms of how transactions are handled in their store

AI is trained on humans... And humans are so good at giving bad information

sinful cove

Welp I guess I’m out 50$

spice pecan

maybe poe2 can transfer, idk

but not poe1, and it never has been able to

so whoever told you you could transfer from sony to pc in poe1 probably doesn't even own a playstation

Ok technically they want $$$ then ye

Lmao

Paid for my time kinda thing

i generally have sympathy for console homies because they already have to fight with so much bullshit

in a game where you have to notoriously fight through bullshit already

All I have is empathy for them

Not being able to mod games

Not being able to alt tab

pseudo axle
#

can you scale ballista totems with abyss jewels?

spice pecan
#

uhhhh

#

flat damage abyss jewels i assume?

pseudo axle
#

I know, weird question

#

yes

elder marlin
spice pecan
#

i think the flat damage is only local? i honestly have no idea

pseudo axle
#

right I'm aware you can't use the minion damage ones for that

spice pecan
#

i'd login and test on standard to see if i proc shocks with a lightning jewel but uhh

#

im kinda playing hitman rn

pseudo axle
#

thats ok

#

the research continues

spice pecan
#

i only really have played spell totems

#

as much of a totem lover as i am, i don't really fuck with ballista totems

dry tree
#

If the jewel applies to your attacks or your bow it would work fine on a ballista

elder marlin
spice pecan
#

that's kind of what i thought but i wasn't sure

pseudo axle
#

I am creating a giga brain build

#

with insane interactions

dry tree
#

A jewel can't be "local" as such

elder marlin
spice pecan
pseudo axle
#

wait, hold on, nevermind, I think this particular part might not work

#

ugh, no it might

#

ballistas use your % inc damage right

#

like, inc attack damage from a buff

elder marlin
icy swan
#

lol literly immmortal

#

just dmg not good enaught

#

i just stand didnt need to move at all

pseudo axle
#

okay, so the reason why I need to have ballistas, is because I need to cast a spell while they're up

dry tree
#

Ballistas use your weapon and your stats

pseudo axle
#

and ballistas only work with bows, not wands, right

spice pecan
#

no they work with wands too

pseudo axle
#

stupid question probably but just wanted to double check since it can also theoretically range attack

spice pecan
#

they 100% work with wands, i played ps of archmage ballista

pseudo axle
#

oh

dry tree
#

Ballista totem support specifies bow or wand attack

spice pecan
#

actually insanely fun build, but i hate the ballista mechanics

pseudo axle
#

that is quite interesting indeed

#

QUITE interesting indeed

elder marlin
#

Amd wand atk skill can work with ballista

#

Any kinetic skill, power siphon

#

Thats the first things that comes to my ming

pseudo axle
#

I'll need to test out this build in practice, but in theory

#

in theory

spice pecan
#

somatic shell would also work

#

since that is also a wand attack skill

pseudo axle
#

its all coming together

gritty epoch
elder marlin
elder marlin
gritty epoch
#

Brain blast do more damage I think

pseudo axle
#

umbral army + zombie of falling + corpse consumption + abyss jewel stacking + ele-convert of some kind

#

and gain-extra-phys-as-ele

elder marlin
gritty epoch
pseudo axle
#

umbral army gives you 15% attack damage per zombie, theoretically you can have 200 zombies falling at once

#

I -think- that works

#

combine with necromancer scaling with corpse popping, and akuna's will gloves

#

summon ballistas, rain zombies

#

if you ever had 200 zombies falling at once and a ballista fired right at that moment...

#

200 x 15%

#

with flat damage stacking from abyss jewels

#

oh and we're getting 5% phys-as-ele from spirit-charge blocked lightpoacher

elder marlin
pseudo axle
#

necromancer corpse cast node

#

the one that ramps your cast speed up by 200% if you consume enough corpses fast enough

#

we can also do a cdwt setup with heartbound loop maybe but that seems annoying

#

listen if someone found the limit it must be possible

#

even getting 50 or 100 zombies going at once is like, insane giga damage

elder marlin
#

Like cws

pseudo axle
#

I think you can do spell cascade to summon more zombies

#

at once

#

oh its not an aoe gem

#

OH, ARCANIST BRAND

spice pecan
#

bingo

pseudo axle
#

of course, of course, brands, what am I, some kind of ape?

#

we don't need ballistas at all

spice pecan
#

so it does interact with cdr

pseudo axle
#

we just RAIN MEN on the enemy while sipping a chai latte and smoking a cigarette

#

okay I just found a video that CONFIRMS they all show up as zombies in the damn thing, it is possible, we've cracked the code

#

...actually the umbral army tech by itself alone is kinda nutty tbh

#

it could work with almost anything

#

if it works

#

but it should

#

actually yeah I think at the end of all of this I just discovered how to break umbral army, more than abyss jewel stacking nonsense tbh.

elder marlin
pseudo axle
#

oh

#

....oh

#

how do you do that exactly

#

soulwrest?

elder marlin
pseudo axle
#

its saying you can only get like 20

#

is there a bug or exploit?

elder marlin
pseudo axle
#

can't run dark monarch if I'm stacking here

#

plus I need a weapon that scales for damage

#

wait, actually...in theory that isn't even a bad idea

#

if I give up the abyss jewel stuff and just work on scaling umbral army then there you go

#

oh no we give up minions to do this

#

that is bad

#

if anything we'd want a zombie dark monarch to increase our zombie cap to 400

icy swan
pseudo axle
#

at 400 zombies though I think my pc would start dying though

#

as would the server

elder marlin
pseudo axle
#

honestly I think with this you can kinda just use whatever and go the most tanky possible build you can

#

I could theoretically like, pivot into this from anything that cares about attack damage

#

as long as I can automate enough zombie casts

elder marlin
gritty epoch
pseudo axle
#

I could use totems to do it maybe

#

brands and totems

#

with the insane cast speed I'll have its pretty legit

elder marlin
elder marlin
icy swan
pseudo axle
#

asenath's gentle touch + coiling whisper maybe?
