that's a shame, I like incursion

fossil mural
#

Lock farming back

split maple
#

given how they messed up access to grasping mails i am hella scared about temple mod availability if they decide on incursion #2

clear lodge
#

What button in game? How do you see what's listed for trade without the website

pulsar dune
#

/ is the default keybind

fossil mural
split maple
#

especially since incursion currently feels in ok shape to me, like it has some depth once you get deeper into it than just printing locuses/doryanis

spice pecan
#

i hate the rng

#

feels like i have no control over what gets built

pulsar dune
#

IIRC I had like 50/50 doryani/locus temple bad temple

split maple
#

idk, last 20-30 temples or so i printed not a single one didnt have one of doryani/locus + one other room i like

pulsar dune
#

yea, it'd be nice if other rooms were more rewarding, but they aren't even like... actively terrible, just way less relevant than the two good ones, so they end up a bit worthless

split maple
#

like its pretty deterministic with technique

fossil mural
pulsar dune
#

yea, I use the timeline scarabs, which mess with numbers a bit

umbral crag
#

Idk, im doing it now coz i was hunting for locus to self corrupt stuff and not getting it a lot

split maple
#

yea i dont ocunt timelines there, i consider that just a gamba for another good temple chance for free

spice pecan
fossil mural
#

So its not actually that bad

#

And you can easily set up alva currency in the meantime

pulsar dune
#

and apex of ascension is not nothing, and there is a way to get some sort of 6l in temples

spice pecan
#

i mean it looks about as fun as setting up betrayal board

#

which is uhh

#

Not Very Fun

fossil mural
#

Unless they fix techs

#

If they fix techs it will be ass

thick goblet
fossil mural
#

Its super fast, straightforward (unless you want to giga optimize) and not rng. And you get good rewards while setting up

#

People complain about not getting the tiles they want, but thats because they want 1 to 1 fungoon temple

brazen vector
#

Yea but the rarity meta currently isn't a thing in poe

#

Unless you play with a rarity bot somehow

fossil mural
#

And then youll be printing mbs as well

split maple
pulsar dune
#

it's a shame that uniques are so bad in poe.

split maple
#

other ones are mainly if you want to target omnitect uniques

brazen vector
#

Id want something entirely new and not a carbon copy from poo2

fossil mural
#

Its a good mechanic

#

Unles they make it the league mechanic

brazen vector
#

Because why have 2 different games when they are the same in the end just one has worse graphics

fossil mural
#

In which case thats just lame

brazen vector
#

Could have just made poe2 a part of poe

fossil mural
brazen vector
#

OH WAIT that was the plan initially

fossil mural
#

Thats a really weird take

brazen vector
fossil mural
brazen vector
#

Last week

fossil mural
#

And did you play plants druid or something

pulsar dune
#

how are 3p voices only 40d?

fossil mural
#

Because its literally the same

pulsar dune
#

isn't that anomalously low

brazen vector
pulsar dune
opaque sphinx
#

ok lets try it

@lucid kiln inherited my gear and currency

Level 31 reap goes hard

pulsar dune
#

GGG has kinda been buffing some terrible uniques at least

#

but with every bad unique they buff, they add 3 more that are 1 alch/dust cost

frigid wedge
pulsar dune
#

yea, the entire global drop unique system needs a rework

#

it's literally just a mageblood lottery at this point

frigid wedge
#

imma be real i get happy when i drop willclash and valyrium

pulsar dune
#

valyrium is kinda based

frigid wedge
#

i like clicking vaals

brazen vector
#

Valyrium is super nice, has a special place in my heart

frigid wedge
#

good roll pc corrupt willclash is expensive

#

i genuinely get happier seeing willclash and valy than some t1 uniques tho

umbral crag
#

I just wish it doesnt take 20 years to complete 1 map

opaque sphinx
#

take 10 yrs longer cuz i dont have brutality linked to whirl sad

#

stuck FB everywhere

frigid wedge
#

wat

#

just link them?

umbral crag
#

What skill are you using what

opaque sphinx
umbral crag
#

My int acc stacker feels squishy and ive no idea why @.@

umbral crag
frigid wedge
opaque sphinx
#

i have no supports linked to whirl

#

my main skill is fine cuz of woke wed

#

fb is fine cuz of doryani making it deal 0 dmg

#

but whirl deals light cuz of claws

frigid wedge
#

werent u acc stack

opaque sphinx
opaque sphinx
#

nice drop

frigid wedge
opaque sphinx
umbral crag
split maple
#

lacro dont tell me you rly dont have instaleech

frigid wedge
#

that u have excess sockets that can be swapped to link brutality

#

to ur whirling blades

umbral crag
frigid wedge
#

chill tf out

umbral crag
#

But still squish somehow

opaque sphinx
#

i am chill i was trying to highlight the WB part

#

i dont have random sockets that do nothing

opaque sphinx
#

look ur ES leech without it

#

then look it with it

frigid wedge
#

so u dont have hydrosphere or a separate vaal reave gem

opaque sphinx
#

do u want to triple ur leech or have 10% more dps

umbral crag
frigid wedge
umbral crag
#

No more big pp dmg

opaque sphinx
#

i swapped to ls of arcing for the map anyway cuz of reduced aoe mod

tawdry olive
#

Es leech with claw mastery doesn’t work. The mod assigned is life_leech_%_is_instant_per_equipped_claw

Take the regular leech mastery for 5% instead, it’s good enough

frigid wedge
#

i still feel like u probably have a low value link group or smth u could replace easily

opaque sphinx
spice pecan
#

javascript error got awakened stuck and frozen on my screen, never seen this before

opaque sphinx
#

def feels like it works to me

#

without node it says i have 3k leech

tawdry olive
opaque sphinx
#

with the node it says 12k

spice pecan
opaque sphinx
#

yeh ghost reaver

#

im pretty sure it just doesnt work for mana

tawdry olive
#

If you’re using ghost reaver it may work

umbral crag
#

Hmmm i dont have ghost reaver but it still goes up

#

In pob at least

opaque sphinx
#

wait what

umbral crag
#

Yeah

opaque sphinx
#

how are u leeching es without ghost reaver

#

??

frigid wedge
#

es leech support time?

umbral crag
#

Stormdrinker

tawdry olive
#

Storm drinker yea

opaque sphinx
#

oh the fuck

tawdry olive
#

I got it on a megalomaniac with genius for %int

#

I’m a genius

frigid wedge
#

imagien not using 3 12 passive clusters

umbral crag
opaque sphinx
#

valid

umbral crag
#

Im using 4 cluster

frigid wedge
tawdry olive
opaque sphinx
#

damn look at this level 100 guy over here

umbral crag
opaque sphinx
#

wtf

#

im 97 i def cant fit 4th cluster

umbral crag
#

Not a 12p 4th cluster

frigid wedge
#

icl i havent played the int acc stack

opaque sphinx
#

i dont even have my 3rd cluster full

#

then again i do have more invest into aura

umbral crag
#

Ahh

#

Yeah

#

Thats why

opaque sphinx
#

need to run double purity and get 20% aura eff for this whack doryani setup

#

i mean i dont really need the 20% but like its +1 max res hell yeah

#

shit i never finished the map i got distracted typing here

umbral crag
#

https://pobb.in/S3HlbYmI2XHy

Mine is hella padded kekw

frigid wedge
#

int stack was already a boring archetype to me bc theres literally no puzzle, u just get int and attack speed, int acc jugg has even less to think about bc now the ONLY stat u realistically need is int so like

#

bleh

opaque sphinx
#

@split maple u dont actually do the ulti in this setup right

umbral crag
#

Maybe i should drop thr atk spd mastery for leech

tawdry olive
split maple
opaque sphinx
#

thought so ty

umbral crag
opaque sphinx
#

also put fortify in ur main links u pob baiter

tawdry olive
#

The good news is int/acc stack is definitely not surviving this league there is just no way

umbral crag
#

Only reason why i built it this league in the end

split maple
#

since if you dont have leech target you dont have recovery

spice pecan
#

i think herald stack is probably on the chopping block more than intstack jugg tbh

umbral crag
dapper fractal
#

whats this guy's problem

frigid wedge
split maple
#

heraldstack will get tripletaped, while they wont need to nerf accustacker if claws dont go core, it will be just dead

frigid wedge
#

nerfing heralds kills so many builds honestly

split maple
#

i think hive wont be surviving in current shape

opaque sphinx
#

bruh

split maple
#

maybe also some numerical nerf to pbod

frigid wedge
#

i hope at most herald of the hive might lose herald tag

opaque sphinx
#

ur IC is not on cwdt either

spice pecan
opaque sphinx
#

smh

dapper fractal
#

yeah

umbral crag
frigid wedge
umbral crag
#

And i needed convocation on automation

#

So jank work around

opaque sphinx
#

oh didnt see the auto im blind

frigid wedge
#

killing pbod just continues to stab sanctum runners in the leg

split maple
#

would be kinda funny if they nerfed pbod not because of pbod builds but because of autobomber with single target aspirations

pulsar dune
#

I'm down for another sanctum meta shakeup

#

But really, just give casters literally any other spells to use

frigid wedge
opaque sphinx
opaque sphinx
#

glove like this are cheap and give u lot more es from ur disc

frigid wedge
pulsar dune
opaque sphinx
frigid wedge
#

lmao

opaque sphinx
#

i guess not really needed, but more max res more good

tawdry olive
#

Kira is cooking some completely disgusting shit he’s not following the usual template

pulsar dune
umbral crag
# opaque sphinx

Yeah I'm just trying to self corrupt mine till i hit smth usable

opaque sphinx
#

these are like 50c tho

umbral crag
opaque sphinx
#

ok fine but at least put fortify on ur main links

#

and take the leech mastery

tawdry olive
#

Fortify tattoo works for mapping

umbral crag
tawdry olive
#

The one that gives you fortify on stun

#

I found it good enough for me

opaque sphinx
#

hmm

#

now i want to try this

#

how hard do i need to hit to stun an uber

frigid wedge
#

very

#

think ive seen tect slam do it

pulsar dune
#

You can only stuns Ubers once per 4s

#

Or well, they are stun immune if they were stunned (as in playing the stun animation) recently

opaque sphinx
#

4s is long enough for fort

umbral crag
#

How do you keeo your spec alive

opaque sphinx
#

its 6 base no>

#

i dont use a spectrew

umbral crag
#

In harby maps

#

Ahh

spice pecan
opaque sphinx
#

i just think they are bait

#

unless ur an actual minion build

frigid wedge
#

if u want lucky

opaque sphinx
#

yh i have one of those i swap to for reave

#

cant decide if that or frenzy on hit is better

#

i think frenzy for blight/bosses but lucky for mapping

tawdry olive
opaque sphinx
#

oh valid

#

i guess i forgot i have 900m dps

tawdry olive
#

Just int acc stack things

umbral crag
tawdry olive
#
  • Doryani for good measure
opaque sphinx
frigid wedge
#

u have 900m dps but like 33 aps and doryanis

#

so it doesn't help with stun v much

opaque sphinx
#

i bought that double purity + clarity gain watcher btw

#

working on divining it

frigid wedge
#

nice one

tawdry olive
#

What no pof sublime does to a mf

opaque sphinx
frigid wedge
#

ur tincture still makes me sad

#

partly bc ur using pen tincture with doryanis and partly bc its a crit tincture and ur nor using 35 inc effect mod

opaque sphinx
worldly bridge
#

i did hall of grandmasters :3

#

most of these are hardcore achievements lol

frigid wedge
opaque sphinx
#

oh it doesnt apply the inc eff

frigid wedge
worldly bridge
#

i was indeed

frigid wedge
#

also i get that ur cc prob needs it but is still upsets me

opaque sphinx
#

or does it apply the inc eff

tawdry olive
#

Achievement hunting requires me to play hardcore

frigid wedge
#

that u use a crit one

tawdry olive
#

Miss me with that

frigid wedge
#

so dont select minroll t6 prefix

opaque sphinx
#

yeh but im just trying to get it to get the numbers right atm

frigid wedge
#

yeah ur dps isnt gonna be fine bc a quarter of ur crit is ur tincture

#

it just makes me rlly upset

#

is pen actually worth it when everything has -200 res tho

opaque sphinx
#

it still scales decently just not as hard as multi

#

is one of the reasons omni was so good

#

pen is 2nd highest scaler after multi

#

at least iirc

#

i STILL never finished the map

#

dont smoke and check discord

#

oh neat

frigid wedge
#

u do know tinctures can have melee crit multi

opaque sphinx
frigid wedge
opaque sphinx
#

yes but i am lazy

#

and im not actually 100% its better

#

cuz pob doesnt apply qual/inc eff

umbral crag
#

Doesnt the 35% already reflect on the tincture value itself

#

So its just whatever the tincture value is

opaque sphinx
#

not when u create it in pob

umbral crag
#

Just math it kek

opaque sphinx
#

lazy

frigid wedge
#

we can tell

opaque sphinx
#

i am in moneymaking mood not math mood

#

not awful

umbral crag
opaque sphinx
#

reave+woke aoe for general mapping, LS+gmp for blight/reduced aoe maps, mamba+nightblade for bosses

umbral crag
#

Aoe with pulverise or just aoe for reave?

opaque sphinx
#

just aoe

frigid wedge
#

i should play another build this league

#

but theres so little to wanna farm

opaque sphinx
#

i find with woke aoe and vaal reave u dont actually need pulverize unless ur tryna do blight

#

but in that case LS is just better

frigid wedge
#

i should be playing pohx League but i be playn Minecraft

thick goblet
pulsar dune
#

Main thing I'm tempted to do is build a golden charlatan build tbh

#

But IDK if I want it enough to actually put together a Poe build

opaque sphinx
#

the fuck im p sure i got like 10% xp from that map too

#

i cant remember if i was at 0 or not

frigid wedge
fossil mural
opaque sphinx
#

why cant u do like flicker or smth

pulsar dune
#

golden charlaten is a pretty dogshit 2h sword

#

and attacks that can't cheat their flat somehow are thus unusable

#

I wonder if you could make like... ele hit work

opaque sphinx
#

flicker cheats their flat with cold per frenzy

pulsar dune
#

hm, true

#

franzy stacking is probably not infeasible

umbral crag
# opaque sphinx

My biggest drop from harby was 2x awakening, 1x pandemonium, 1x containment, 1x preservation

#

Pretty nutty map

#

Never again tho HAHAH

pulsar dune
#

tho frenzies will be annoying since you can't go farrul

frigid wedge
#

@thick goblet i aint dealing with hypixel again

#

i played 2.3k hours of their awful skyblock and hated every moment of at least 1.5k hours of it

#

when the first thing ppl say when someone asks how to start playing it is dont

pulsar dune
#

hm, ppl apparently do chaos convert spark with it

umbral crag
#

Pleasant surprise kek

frigid wedge
#

it gives me poor expectations for their other games

frigid wedge
frigid wedge
#

ek is preferred for most stuff bc proj speed

pulsar dune
#

yea, ek looks good

#

also scales well with hh

frigid wedge
#

mhm

opaque sphinx
#

ermagerda verd bertery

spice pecan
#

i wish EK was reasonably league startable

opaque sphinx
#

it is now

spice pecan
#

remove rolling magma, buff EK when ggg

opaque sphinx
#

with assa

spice pecan
#

why do it on assassin tho

brazen vector
spice pecan
#

it's phys, so it can already poison

opaque sphinx
#

all dam poison, gain as extra

spice pecan
#

gain as extra on spells is kinda weak no?

opaque sphinx
#

¿

spice pecan
#

at least compared to attacks

split maple
#

gain as extra on phys is kinda strong man

opaque sphinx
#

its the main way u scale ek

pulsar dune
#

is there any source of attack-specific gain as extra?

spice pecan
opaque sphinx
#

sword

#

voidforge w/e

#

starforge

split maple
spice pecan
#

it's the closest thing for spells

#

i dunno, my brain makes a connection that is hard to put into words

opaque sphinx
#

but ye gain as extra is good, u can also just play it crit

#

with sandstorm and pcharge node

pulsar dune
#

I'd trust EK leveling tbh

spice pecan
#

oh interesting, ek of lingering blades has a duration tag

pulsar dune
#

I have no idea what you are talking about mythik. We're talking about things like hatred, herald of ash, ele weakness balance of terror

spice pecan
#

i was talking about added damage to spells on weapon but whatever

opaque sphinx
#

yeh that is weak

#

but gain as extra + gem level is good

#

spell have high base so gain is extra strong

#

early on u can just use dual princess + heatshiver + hatred

#

and hrimsorrow

pulsar dune
#

dual wield CIP with entropic devastation surely.

opaque sphinx
#

cip is no ele dmg no?

spice pecan
#

correct

#

apparently tho you can still use oriath's end with CIP

#

which is really funny

pulsar dune
#

yea I was thinking about clicking this fucking thing

#

but cast speed is probably not happening

#

so it'd suck to play

spice pecan
#

if using ek of massacre i think you kind of need some cast speed

opaque sphinx
#

u can def get cast speed

#

actually nvm scratch that

#

is just better

pulsar dune
#

yea gloomfang is big

tender palm
#

@daring jungle Bro I been pouncing every unique I see but I still only get 6/7 wolves

#

My small brain is confused

opaque sphinx
#

i rebound portal to b and i still press i and right click it anyway send help

tawdry olive
#

Takes a bit of time to get used to it

#

Just like identify all

#

And then you get so used to it, you use it on an inventory with voices after a simu

ancient ingot
#

Anyone know why molten shell will not work with automation?

spice pecan
#

and have you turned automation on

pulsar dune
#

if you are in HO, automation doesn't activate

spice pecan
#

also yeah it doesn't activate in hideout

tawdry olive
#

Herald of the hive does though, ask me how I know

opaque sphinx
#

yeah im legit getting 10% xp per map at 97 with this harbi beyond invasion setup wtf

tawdry olive
#

If you fast that’s like 6 min per map

#

It’s absurd

opaque sphinx
#

what the helly

compact bronze
#

can i still level up a corrupted gem?

tawdry olive
#

I leveled to 100 with 2 characters and was on the way to a 3rd before Pohx league dropped

It was hide out tyvm

#

thanks

opaque sphinx
#

anyone have a semi up to date list on scarabs worth vendoring

#

i never really trust ninja on actual prices its slow to update

#

but i guess i could give it a try

#

valid

heady cliff
#

sorry but until faustus starts to appear on trade site, this is the only way

opaque sphinx
#

hek

#

how much more loot is 5x deli orb

#

if u have the dps is it worth doing

spice pecan
#

approximately one billion

opaque sphinx
#

ik the first one is like 10% but it has diminishing returns i just dunno how bad they dim

opaque sphinx
#

idk i ask here first cuz its open and check there if nobody answers

fossil mural
#

Maybe do the opposite UHM

opaque sphinx
#

ok we go full circle

meager ridge
#

whats the diff between these?

umbral crag
tranquil sedge
#

one is a notable and one is a mastery

umbral crag
#

Unless youre asking what duration and cooldown recovery means

tranquil sedge
#

or are you asking if those two stack?

when is the new league?

tranquil sedge
spice pecan
opaque sphinx
#

proxy shield + goatman = feelsbad

#

its the overlapping proxy shields thats whack

#

muh xp

spice pecan
#

bricked three red maps during atlas progression so far

#

poggers

tender palm
#

any good =o?

spice pecan
#

wrong game

tender palm
#

I just corrupted it and added 3rd socket otherwise it is ground loot from temple lol

opaque sphinx
#

how r u supposed to kill anything when every proxy shield venn diagrams 5 ways kekhands

tender palm
#

No way this is right?

spice pecan
#

you're using the wrong channel dude

tender palm
#

Oh lmao

#

Htf did I click here

spice pecan
#

your pc wanted you to play poe1

tender palm
#

I hate poe1 with a passion sorry, PEACE OUT

tranquil sedge
tender palm
#

I try to enjoy poe1 I just can't

#

Something about the socket system rubs my brain the wrong way and makes me wanna chunk my pc out the window around the 3 hour mark every single time I've tried playing it since it launched

opaque sphinx
#

1 map kekw

tawdry olive
#

average blight map btw

opaque sphinx
#

nah blight i hella get worse cuz im shitty at micromanaging them into overlaps

frigid wedge
#

nice

opaque sphinx
#

MUH XPPPPPPPPPP

#

i can read i promise

tranquil sedge
#

but poe2 sockets aren't much better, having to six link each skill gem individually instead

#

wanna try a new gem? oops time to relink

tawdry olive
#

best socket system be like

tranquil sedge
#

sockets in poe1 are also basically a non-issue in any build after like one or two days of playing, the cost of recoloring or relinking is kinda not relevant anymore after that for the most part*

tender palm
#

I get to where I have a full set of gear, socket some skills into it then spend 2-3 hours not replacing anything and looking at every piece of gear and it isn't useable, then I get bored and quit

#

I try to enjoy it like actually but =/

tranquil sedge
#

for up to 5 links that stage is like early maps, maybe mid maps
6 links is the moment ur making more than like couple divs/hr tops

tender palm
#

I have 200+ hours in like chronomancer for instance and a bunch of other indie ARPGs

#

the fact I can't get hours into poe1 is kinda funny tbh lmao

tranquil sedge
#

i think u just need to figure out how to get over that common hump ur describing

tender palm
#

I don't really like to have to "push through" stuff in a game

#

The progress curve in poe1 just gets stale to me really fast, like 2 hours in not even deep lol

#

Idk if I ever even killed the first act boss

tranquil sedge
#

uh

spice pecan
#

bruh

tender palm
#

It's just boring to me idk what to tell you I can't make my brain enjoy things it doesn't xD

tranquil sedge
#

okay yea none of what i said is even remotely applicable then campaign is like the starting point

#

yea fair enough just enjoy poe2 ig 😛

tender palm
#

I've had people tell me if I stick to it for a few days I can recolor my sockets which would help my issue but I can't know that ahead of time lmao

tranquil sedge
#

the progress curve early is just level up and wear whatever random shit u find that looks like it might have kinda okay colors and keep going on

umbral crag
#

Its fine if the game doesnt appeal to you in the end haha

tranquil sedge
#

like yea nobody has money to recolor stuff in act 1 or 2 at leaguestart

tender palm
#

Yea it's just the loot is boring as fuck like immediately

tranquil sedge
#

u just buy the gear from vendors or gamblers or whatever

tender palm
#

Usually in an arpg you are equipping new stuff constantly as you level and every item is like "oh shiny what's this can I use it?"

#

in poe1 you're just like oh it's another...5 multi color wtf ever base item I can't do shit with

#

awesome, very exciting

tranquil sedge
#

okay but how do you not find the same issue in poe2 then
you cannot meaningfully craft anything that early on there either

#

you're still just picking up and wearing whatever random shit you get that may be an incremental upgrade

spice pecan
#

getting a 6 link with the correct colors in poe1 is much easier than getting a 6 link at all in poe2 tbh

#

and you need like 5 six links

tender palm
#

Idk in poe2 you're immediately upgrading via orbs and you don't have to make your skills fit into every single new item you get while leveling

tranquil sedge
#

immediately upgrading via orbs
perhaps elaborate a lil on that

tender palm
#

You start using aug/trans/ex and can just keep the item if it's good you don't have to worry about upgrading to ANOTHER good item with the same color scheme

#

By like level 10-15 in poe1 you feel locked into whatever you're wearing and nothing that drops is exciting

spice pecan
#

i mean we use augs, transmutes, and alchs all the time too

tranquil sedge
#

if u find a good item in campaign in act 3 you can still use it for several acts later lol

#

literally the only requirements campaign has of players is some life and resistances

spice pecan
#

you can also replace it within like 2 zones too

tranquil sedge
#

you can finish act 10 on a 4-link on your main skill

#

and whatever gear you find in an act, two acts later you'll be finding the same or better without problems

tender palm
#

Yea but the gear is boring, trying to find the right combo of socket colors is tedious and unfun, the loot isn't exciting in the early game like at all

tranquil sedge
#

like i guarantee you whoever gave you the impression that u gotta worry about socket colors and links that much is dead wrong

split maple
#

game is balanced around 84link

tranquil sedge
#

it is something to keep in mind but u forget it pretty fast

split maple
#

but okay if you dont like playing suduko with gear sockets ig poe1 isnt for you, fair enough

tender palm
#

Literally every indie arpg I've ever played has more fun loot than poe1 has in the early game idk what to say lol

split maple
#

a1 is a tad tedious since you dont have movement skills and shite yet

tranquil sedge
#

aight i can't say anything about that xd

split maple
#

but like with experience it gets better and most folks dont consider campaign like part of the game at all

tranquil sedge
#

but if you give it a shot again at some point maybe get someone in a call with you to speed things up a bit even just by directing you around or whatever

split maple
#

just a lil chore before you can play

Conner makes some valid points

spice pecan

yeah, i agree with him

limber sedge
#

1 month poe1, 3 month poe2

#

if thats true that is insanely bad

spice pecan
#

so phrecia PL assets/templates literally already exist

tranquil sedge
spice pecan
#

and they deliberately choose not to give us access

tranquil sedge
spice pecan
#

but then why would they fund a pohx PL at all in the first place, i dunno

tranquil sedge
#

and pohx is their hail mary

#

again all tinfoil hat

spice pecan
#

i mean, they had to have known that the shit they did with the early 0.4 drop was going to do that, but yeah

tranquil sedge
#

but convenient enough as an explanation that im willing to consider it a possibility yep

restive nova
#

which one is better to take guys ?
in pob its showing way higher damage with with Dire Strike but elemental values are not changing in pob, idk if its bug or its showing correctly

tranquil sedge
#

show ur pob

spice pecan
#

well the second one is like specifically for a dex stacker, no?

tranquil sedge
#

what elemental values are not changing?

#

yea like thats clearly a dex stacking bow

#

its not impossible for there to be a dex breakpoint where its just better to use

restive nova
restive nova
#

if i swap out i dont see any change here, just total dps i see difference

tranquil sedge
#

u would not expect them to change for the most part

spice pecan
#

the scourge bow should actually reduce the lightning max hit because of the 6% increased lightning damage taken scourge mod lol

#

fucking krangled items man

brazen vector
#

I.miss scourge and I havent even played it :s

restive nova
#

so dire strike to take

tranquil sedge
#

and wratch fletch looks like its more damage in pob without changing anything else

#

am i missing something?

#

what kind of bow is best for ur build anyway

#

blast rain deadeye?

restive nova
#

left side change to elemental hit of spctrum

pulsar dune
#

it§s ehots

tranquil sedge
#

oh

undone gazelle
#

ehots deadeye, gotta go with proj speed and atk speed

tranquil sedge
#

okay dire strike is more dps then nvm

restive nova
#

lossing 1.3k elemental flat and still more with dire

#

% will scale a lot more later then

pulsar dune
#

ehots does have a lot of flat on the gem

tranquil sedge
#

im just looking at number in pob but ye

restive nova
#

just found out today that i could find items with pob

tranquil sedge
#

you also gain back 165 to 275 ish cold flat too

restive nova
#

else i was just manually searching all the time with dps

tranquil sedge
restive nova
tranquil sedge
#

i feel like first step is u should be figuring out what is theoretically the best bow for your build

#

before jumping to pob

restive nova
#

spine bow everyone says

#

but i am in standard league

tranquil sedge
#

sure thats because its a good combination of crit and attack speed

#

but yea standard can mess things up a bit

#

but base is just one thing

#

what mods are desirable

pulsar dune
#

usually high end bow builds want to go phys bow as well

tranquil sedge
#

do u need additional arrows, are u gonna be scaling dex more at endgame, are u converting phys to elemental ^ etc.

restive nova
#

right now i have 30 div, need to farm more

tranquil sedge
#

coz even with crucible tree weapons there's still gonna be a variety of stuff

pulsar dune
#

but then you kinda also need mirror quiver for conversion so that your gloves are sane, etc.

restive nova
#

oh one more, pob doesnt find unique items ?

tranquil sedge
#

idk never used pob to find stuff for me tbh

tranquil sedge
#

and u can do manual searches afterwards based on that too, to get more options

pulsar dune
#

POB goes by stats, so it won't look at any stats the unique has that can't be on a rare

#

but it would find a soul taker for example

restive nova
#

i tried but shows rare only, some unquies can be better but pob search doesnt show

split maple
#

That find item by DPS or whatever function?

#

I rly wouldn't rely on that

pulsar dune
#

it's pretty good, but yea, won't find uniques

#

not that good unique bows exist at your level of investment

undone gazelle
restive nova
#

not only bows, i was looking for helmet or armor, but it only shows rares

restive nova
pulsar dune
#

yea, as I said, it won't find fledgling for example

#

but it should notice hyrris

restive nova
#

doesnt find hyrris also

pulsar dune
#

(tho maybe it sets non-unique only)

restive nova
#

i dont see option for non uniques, i will check again

pulsar dune
#

anyway, for uniques you can just sort in the big unique listing

restive nova
#

thank you

spice pecan
#

conner ends up being right a lot of the time i think

silent leaf
#

yep

#

he says lightning will be meta 0.4 in poe2 like 0.1 - 0.3

#

seeing from ninja, thats true

tranquil sedge
silent leaf
#

kinda wish they hire more devs but i heard they are paying fucking peanuts

tranquil sedge
#

oh its newzealand oh their salaries oh blah blah blah who cares lol as a player

#

ur a company with money and ur not hiring people if u need them thats ur problem not players'

split pagoda
#

i havent watched the vid but it does seem like they are basically releasing poe1 3months into poe2 league so the new poe2 league launches a month after poe1

tranquil sedge
#

they're not some two bit indie studio that u gotta accept its a passion project of a few devs and shit goes haywire constantly is the expectation

#

they're basically a triple A arpg studio at this point

#

and they basically set their own standards with poe1 anyway

split pagoda
#

poe2 new league gonna be early april ig

tranquil sedge
#

the 1 month 3 month possibility

tight plinth
#

who needs more than a month anyway

tranquil sedge
#

especially the wrong way around

elfin shale
#

This league launched like Oct 28th didnt it? By early march i assumed they meant the first week, which while a bit of a delay would track wouldnt it

spice pecan
#

i tend to play more than a month

tranquil sedge
#

if the only things ur able to say are troll takes why even bother typing

tight plinth
#

yeah but its not like poe1 gets shutdown when poe2 league is up

silent leaf
#

MAINTAINENCE MODE

#

LETS GO

spice pecan
#

no but we stop getting content from content creators because they are required to play poo2

tranquil sedge
#

yea its not like the game has an economy that requires an active playerbase to play
its not like patches stop coming in for one game when they work on the other game

#

its not like content creators drag away more players too ^

#

yea can't be any of that that people are worried about no

tight plinth
#

so?

tranquil sedge
# tight plinth so?

so perhaps if you thought about why people don't like the possible timeline you might be able to understand it

karmic gust
#

i dont think any of that matters except the developers not fixing the league

#

and that part is definitely an issue

silent leaf
#

and its on a sunday and you are playing poe2

karmic gust
#

economy is already mostly dead 1 month in

silent leaf
#

you are praying that the day is just finished

#

so you can go back to work on monday

tranquil sedge
karmic gust
#

and noone cares about poe content creators for the actual league numbers

tranquil sedge
#

like why do patches for one game just stop when they switch to the other

#

its not like the other game ceased to exist

silent leaf
tranquil sedge
#

they're on what, hotfix 26 or some shit on poe2 now

#

where were the 26 hotfixes for poe1

#

???

silent leaf
#

some of them are forced to play it

split maple
#

i get why there wouldnt be content/balance changes etc, but like at least fix boss fights rendering lol

silent leaf
#

like ben or alkaizer

#

also carn

#

alkaizer literally says it to his stream kekw

opaque sphinx
#

so close

tranquil sedge
elfin shale
tranquil sedge
#

im not saying its the main factor, but it adds up

silent leaf
#

i remember carn also saying it but its more along the lines of if you have work and if you want a game that respects your time, better not play this

#

or smth like that

tranquil sedge
#

like if u went to twitch and every single poe streamer was only on poe2 you might feel like oh that's where everyone's at lets give it a go
even if u like both games

tranquil sedge
silent leaf
#

ben went back to poe1 lmao

tranquil sedge
#

none of this is unforeseen territory, esp. not to people like them who make it a parttime or fulltime job to know the game and make money off it

split pagoda
#

main thing I care about is how good the league is and if they actually have time to cook. Which it doesnt seem like they do rn. I very rarely play more than like 3 weeks on leaguestart tbh

silent leaf
#

or rather, he goes back to DI

split pagoda
#

thats what worries me about poe1 rn after 3.27

spice pecan
split maple
#

contentwise breach was kinda barebones

the one positive thing I heard is apparently they have a small dedicated poe1 team now

which would be good

otherwise might just have to annul and pray

uh, it could remove a mod that you dont want it to remove

annuls remove a random mod from the item

Shit, just bought this for all my divs lol mb

Thought i could replace last mod

Is the line "you have no energy shield" seriously agnostic only? 😭

spice pecan
#

prefixes can't be changed + scour is an option to remove all suffixes but i don't think you can craft that

split maple

Does this have empty prefix if you remove bench?

#

Beastcraft add prefix remove suffix

spice pecan
#

oh that works actually

tranquil sedge

^ that's still rng on what suffix gets removed but at least suffix only yea

split maple

And you get some trash prefix yea

Not ideal but prolly better than yoloing annul

You can force it to 0 with Divine Shield, though i think Ghost Dance has a minimum of 30 some unless you have no evasion

silent leaf

You can kinda force it to be at 0

But not 0/0

With chaos bloodline or shield

Divine shield or constantly taking dot seem like you'd be messing yourself up a bit. I suppose if you accept the stat must exist, but be empty, there is stitched demon

elfin shale

I wish there was more payoff

frigid wedge
#

doesn't apostate also work

elfin shale
#

Doing it for JUST broken faith sucks

elfin shale
#

Apostate doesnt work on shields, jewellery or any non-gear sources

#

Not working on shields specifically means it doesnt help with Broken Faith

pulsar dune
#

Does RF work?

elfin shale
#

Question is Apostate viable at all on a non-lifestacker

#

Im a big fan of red energy shield

pulsar dune
#

It's a kaoms heart with sockets, so can't be that bad IG

#

A lot of life builds don't care that much about gear defenses

whole bluff
#

Broken faith seems maybe OK on some RF early on, idk what else tbh. Guess the payoff is so low that even if it was easy and common to go 0 ES, it wouldn't be worth
