[silent leaf]

let it happen pls ggg

[thick goblet]

triple es + life mastery is less life?

[soft perch]

no its more

[strong totem]

you're right. i'm dumb

[soft perch]

especially cuz u have to click life mastery on life stackers

[worldly bridge]

if you dont want to roll life mastery then this is the best outcome

i thin i would go for life mastery personally

[soft perch]

no u want to lol

life stackers click all life masteries

[worldly bridge]

[soft perch]

theres a 10% more life mastery

if u have all of them

[sacred bane]

would it not be better to get all the es mods cause mine is 1250 as straight es?
nvm

[opaque sphinx]

on body armour that is wort h

on others its worth doign the split

[strong totem]

It's not a huge difference on other armour, like 60life if everything is maxed.

but the life roll is the way on other pieces

[steel light]

if u're getting all 6 isn't max life on twilight bad cause u lost 15% life?

[strong totem]

yeah don't get life roll on twilight.

[opaque sphinx]

on 30 qual warlock for example its 415 es
vs 343 es + 129 life

like a 60 flat life dif

[strong totem]

60-70

[elfin shale]

hmmm

think i might go Daughter of Oshabi

Having to click the shrines tho

[strong totem]

the hybrid es/life roll is worth approx 76life

So crafted life works on a budget

or if you have es/mana, you should vendor the item

[sacred bane]

recomb it if the others are good

[strong totem]

and waste my precious dust and gold?

[elfin shale]

cough

[strong totem]

flying under the radar

[elfin shale]

whats the wand called

[strong totem]

solaris something

[elfin shale]

Eclipse Solaris

holy shit thats a lot of damage

100 to 250

Battlemage is wasted though

[wooden elm]

@stuck phoenix congrats on mod btw

[stuck phoenix]

Ty

Not that I was aiming for it xddd

[hard cliff]

@opaque sphinx

I'mma cook

[cosmic eagle]

finally the best event ever happened on this game is returning

[candid moon]

Forced labour

[stuck phoenix]

Real

[candid moon]

Manipulated in to the position

[stuck phoenix]

Totally wasn't asked first

Trueee

[stuck phoenix]

Not endless delve? :3

[elfin shale]

Give us back krangled passives GGG

[potent bramble]

So obviously I'm going to run a couple builds for this... the question is which builds. FRoSS was a great time in Keepers, and would have been even better had I been smarter about how to start it. Some sort of minion build is almost obligatory... and ???

[cosmic eagle]

go big and play the proper flicker

[potent bramble]

I dunno man, I value my sanity - what little of it I have left, anyway

[final owl]

flicker is great, just not for bossing

[elfin shale]

hmmmmm

[cosmic eagle]

its either a slammer, flicker, minion madness or good ole scav gameplay

[elfin shale]

we've gotten the runegraft since the last time we had this

gotta check the delirium boots

[potent bramble]

I do wonder if anyone's gonna try and mix Marauder/Antiquarian's "Kalguuran Armour" with the Olroth bloodline passive "Boon of the River" for crazy ward stuff

[final owl]

hard to go past AC cyclone, but I try not to play builds i have played before so idk

[cosmic eagle]

in b4 the best build is still gonna be surfcaster

[elfin shale]

Unless they nerf it, probably gonna be it

which i honestly hope they dont and they bring other things up towards it

[cosmic eagle]

surfcaster LS in 2026

[elfin shale]

hooooly shit Beacon of Madness might be kinda real with Scavenger + Runegraft of The Warp (and stasis prison lol)

[hard cliff]

https://pobb.in/jX5NfDLw9pfG

How's this look for a bog witch Grey Wind lifestacker slammer ?

[crystal willow]

What happen to phrecia characters when the event end guys? Do we keep those ascendancies in standard?

[hard cliff]

Should I get warcries ?

[elfin shale]

Read the post (no)

[crystal willow]

Oh..

[potent bramble]

I just wish I could have cyclone work with a fishing rod 🙁

GGG, I promise you: I'm fully capable of holding a fishing rod and spinning in a circle!

[drowsy eagle]

what to build with scav

[cosmic eagle]

was there a good build for cyclone during phrecia 1?

[drowsy eagle]

last time I did hexblast but uhh

[cosmic eagle]

full screen RF

[sage falcon]

whatss the point of preswnting this with no items and no skills

[potent bramble]

If there was, I didn't play it - I only have a build for RF and one for Zombies from Phrecia 1

[leaden mural]

chaos dot spiders gonna be a banger

[cosmic eagle]

hmmm i was too busy drooling over server of arakali builds and ofc surfcaster for the endgame farm

[drowsy eagle]

man have anyone made an alt ascendancies build index

[strong totem]

when we fish, we cast

[hard cliff]

it has the core

[sage falcon]

usually cores nowadays have more than that

but sure

[spice pecan]

harbinger ascendancy gets runegraft of the warp as a 2 pointer

which means you can use the graft as well

beacon of madness harbinger LOGIN

[strong totem]

scavenger gets more reduced debuff

[spice pecan]

i have a feeling scavenger will get the items shuffled around or otherwise nerfed in some way

it was the top ascendancy

[strong totem]

harbinger needs a buff as well

[spice pecan]

yeah

[granite nexus]

probs

[elfin shale]

I hope Antiquarian gets big buffs

Its my fav, theme wise

[strong totem]

ngl, harb was garbo

[spice pecan]

yes, it was not played like at all

[elfin shale]

I still cant fucking believe they let Harbinger go live with a max of 1 Harbinger global

[spice pecan]

besides some scuffed cursebot

[elfin shale]

wait

[cosmic eagle]

giving us phrecia because they are trying to test if scav will fit in the main poe league

[strong totem]

there's no harb guides either

[elfin shale]

is that the right one

yeah harbinger

[spice pecan]

it sucks because it literally turns you into a harby once you ascend too

none of the other ones do cool shit like that

[stuck phoenix]

Lul

[spice pecan]

you turn blue and start floating

[stuck phoenix]

Tbf we don't really have any other such mechanics in the game

[spice pecan]

exactly

[stuck phoenix]

And Phrecia was always just supposed to be recycled stuff

So they took the harb map mod and slapped it on for fun

[spice pecan]

let us automate summoning the harby allies or something idk

otherwise it's just a scuffed cursebot

[strong totem]

I imagine with a little creativity we can be the harbs that buff our minions and allies

[spice pecan]

in an age where groups dont use cursebots

[hard cliff]

has anyone found a way to use runegraft of treachery to exclusively buff enemies to make a reverse aura bot?

[spice pecan]

it's used with rakiatas

[elfin shale]

Or the superior wild strike of extremes

[spice pecan]

the only aurabot type that uses it is one that wears hand of phrecia

[strong totem]

speaking of rakiatas..

[spice pecan]

so that only you and link target even get auras in the first place

[strong totem]

gambler has a nice rakiata node

[sacred bane]

Did they reveal a new league or sum?

[spice pecan]

not exactly new

[normal hedge]

https://pobb.in/X42lTNT_piT3

ok i dont think that was a good idea 🥀

[spice pecan]

but a rebalanced phrecia event is coming on the 29th

[fickle glen]

How does this item have 4 prefixes? I thought 3 was the max for each mod

[strong totem]

the p2 is hybrid

[normal hedge]

its a hybrid prefix

[spice pecan]

it's one stat line that has two prefixes that give it, so one is a hybrid

[fickle glen]

Ohh that says R at the bottom

What the heck is R mean?

[normal hedge]

thats a bench crafted suffix

[spice pecan]

my favorite way to spell that word is Rcrafted

[stuck phoenix]

Rank

[normal hedge]

ruthless

to remind they dont have it

[stuck phoenix]

Xd

[strong totem]

cRafted

[stuck phoenix]

joocy

fucking elixir of the unbroken circle

[normal hedge]

did you tried the foulborn weapon

idk the name

[spice pecan]

foulborn tulfall or whatever, the +4 cold one?

yeah that's probs the play

[normal hedge]

ya

[spice pecan]

this pob is from owen back in 3.25 tho

[normal hedge]

owen?

is it a content creator?

[spice pecan]

yes

he does wintertide brand videos

[normal hedge]

i see

[fickle glen]

Nice

[worldly bridge]

What if molten strike of zenith on prophet

The balls already go in random directions

Then could go for abyss jewel staxking

Do corrupted magic abyssal jewels count for adorned

[elfin shale]

Only if they're in the passive tree

[spice pecan]

msoz was probably just placed on ancestral commander instead with the runecraft for return proj

[worldly bridge]

:o

[normal hedge]

i dont think you want random direction on ms

ah

[spice pecan]

even without that anymore, i'd still wager you want AC for msoz

[normal hedge]

nvm

[elfin shale]

It doesnt really matter does it

[normal hedge]

with less proj speed no

[elfin shale]

wait can you give it giga projectile speed to send the projectiles the distance

[normal hedge]

yes

[worldly bridge]

Youre on right side so easy slow proj speed

[spice pecan]

you want less proj speed

[normal hedge]

but then you gonna have 0 single target

[spice pecan]

to make the balls hit the same target

[normal hedge]

the same issue with rolling magma mines

[worldly bridge]

zenith is single target skill anyway

[spice pecan]

^

[solar smelt]

Lol guess people people can stop asking for phrecia league to come back now

[elfin shale]

Does this work with Sandstorm Visage

[solar smelt]

Not gonna lie that fracture armor set looks Hella dope, but ugh gacha

[hard cliff]

What happens when you use these both at once

---

Removes all Energy Shield
Gain Maximum Life instead of Maximum Energy Shield from Equipped Armour Items
-3 Maximum Life per Level

Plus ->Your Maximum Energy Shield is Equal to 50% of Your Maximum Life

You just ignore energy shield on gear now and get armour or something cause the FB Ghostwrithe is just feeding you your life back onto itself once at 50% ?

[elfin shale]

You have 0 ES

And however much life

[hard cliff]

Does the conversion work ?

you gain 50% of your life back as more life once ?

Note that this modifier does not affect conditional or global modifiers; for example,

The Ivory Tower
's +30 to maximum Energy Shield per 100 Reserved Life modifier does not convert the global maximum energy shield (which you cannot gain, as your maximum ES is 0) into life.

So it doesn't work

[elfin shale]

No, that modifier on Ghostwrithe does nothing

[fiery marsh]

No

[elfin shale]

Its basically ignored

[hard cliff]

Thank you

so you wanna go bog witch apostate ?

[fiery marsh]

You can test with CI

[hard cliff]

Than get ES on boots and gloves

that's gonna suck lol

[fiery marsh]

Whisperer nerfed 100%

[hard cliff]

What if I just get a fuckin

Hnghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

[fiery marsh]

Do they touch scion tho? That shit was strong af too

[normal hedge]

i can imagine they're going to shuffle the uniques

lol

[fiery marsh]

We'll have foulborn uniques too

The biggest issue tho, breach eating random mechanics

And campaign potentially really hard

[hard cliff]

What's the support gem that lets you only do melee elemental damage

[fiery marsh]

Idk? There isint one

[hard cliff]

Please help me @fiery marsh

my children need this

[umbral crag]

What

[worldly bridge]

That doesn’t exist

[hard cliff]

What's the support gem that lets you only do melee elemental damage

[worldly bridge]

Brutality exists for phys

[fiery marsh]

He's thinking of brutality reversed

[hard cliff]

ok what's the support gem that boosts melee elemental damage

[umbral crag]

Repeating doesnt change what u said didnt make sense

[hard cliff]

🤔

[worldly bridge]

Elemental damage with attacks support

[fiery marsh]

Yeah

[hard cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/its-so-obvious-eric-cartman-south-park-s10e9-mystery-of-the-urinal-deuce-gif-20870314

[fiery marsh]

Can we roll reflect on maps tho?

[worldly bridge]

Nope

On zones no

[fiery marsh]

T16.5s go brrrr

[hard cliff]

What the hell is the point of stacking rage and fist of war at the same time

I guess bosses 😩

[fiery marsh]

Lvl 90 free with breach too

[hard cliff]

Can I just not fuckin use fist of war

Is that even legal on slam ?

98% more damage is insane

[cosmic reef]

They're probably not going to balance anything. Just fix totally broken stuff. Like interactions with runegrafts

[hard cliff]

awww fuck I need endurance charges

Goodbye fort

👋

[steel light]

join the cult (caspiro)

[fiery marsh]

Whisperer is busted with current kboc

[elfin shale]

Non-Aura Curses you inflict are not removed from Dying Enemies

Does this do anything in a vacuum

[hard cliff]

Does Eye of Innocence self sustain ?

[normal hedge]

wait i forgot about jolt graft

[hard cliff]

ohh I can get leech on gloves @normal hedge

[normal hedge]

Jolt
42% more Maximum Attack Damage
+56% to Critical Strike Multiplier
14% increased Damage Taken = +20m dps

[stuck phoenix]

No

[sacred bane]

What on the max roll

[stuck phoenix]

It's only relevant because you have something to make curses aura

[opal ingot]

wohoo phrecia

[stuck phoenix]

From corpses

Or something

[hard cliff]

chat help

How do I run blood magic auto extert

:weary

😩

[elfin shale]

dont

[hard cliff]

I have too I'm playing a lifestacker

[elfin shale]

press your buttons

[hard cliff]

Too many buttons to press

[elfin shale]

Or Eternal Apple if you can finagle that

[hard cliff]

it's not possible

That's insane

I am not using this

[drowsy eagle]

poeninja doesn't keep phrecia data?

[opaque sphinx]

u just get +1 min endu charge sources

and make ur min 1 less than ur max

[hard cliff]

I found a way through

Stand back and stand by

[elfin shale]

What was last league

Im blanking

Secrets

wait no

mercenary

[rancid sluice]

itll be research time for me i missed the first phrecia league

[elfin shale]

Do any of the Phrecia ascendancies have an arcane surge gimmick

[hard cliff]

https://pobb.in/rkjPKbtqgu6L

I give up I can't find an attack skill to use

Lifestacker bog witch

[vapid dirge]

Same, have no idea wtf are those new ascendancies from the previous phrecia page

[steady elk]

How fast do y'all finish the acts typically

I'm on my second ever character in poe1 and it took me about 18 hours this time

Firs time took 2 weeks

[umbral crag]

~6hr on league start chilling

If twink, maybe 4hr

[steady elk]

Shieeeet

[vapid dirge]

About 8ish hours over 2days

[elfin shale]

This league took me 10 hours iirc

[rancid sluice]

it all could change anyway so its all just kind of fun theorycrafting at this point

[steady elk]

Fast as hell

What does twink mean?

[rancid sluice]

juiced leveling gear

[gritty garnet]

2nd character, with currency from the first to make you go faster with levelling uniques

[normal hedge]

4.5hours ish

[umbral crag]

U gear the character with gears meant to power level

[steady elk]

Oh that's dope

So you can't league start with twinks right?

Hell of a name too

[umbral crag]

Yeah

[gritty garnet]

and on your second character you should also skip league mechanisms and lab trials

[elfin shale]

@hard cliff
I mightve found tech
Gambler gives you 50% chance to invert res. Foulborn Kiloava's Bluster gives 25%, and mastery gives 15% for 90% chance

[rancid sluice]

tbh im boring even with phrecia + foul ill prolly just look if one of my standby skills has a build that works. maybe go crazy on the second

[steady elk]

How come?

[elfin shale]

Theyre already done

They stay completed

For all characters in a league

[steady elk]

So you don't have to do it again in the league?

Oh that's dope

Well shit I guess I'm doing more than one character this time

[fickle glen]

Whose corpse is this 🤣

[hard cliff]

Herald of Agony Herald Witch looks fun

[rancid sluice]

the goal is three characters in mirror gear each rocking tides/hh/mb. full on belt enjoyer

[elfin shale]

And then you can run a non-attack skill since normally invert is limited to only them wait in kinda cooking

Hit-Based Hexblast of Contradiction Gambler...

[hard cliff]

If you play Herald of Agony minion build what would you use to poison ?

Cobra lash requires a dagger that seems bad for minions

[fickle glen]

Is there a way to use that corpse and how?

[drowsy eagle]

one of the corpses in my freezer how did it escape

[elfin shale]

Raise Spectre

[fickle glen]

Oh that’s some witch stuff

[elfin shale]

Or Detonate Dead lmfao (dont do this)

[rancid sluice]

you 'use' it in hideout and summon the corpse

[compact bronze]

How can i make this area black like in some hideouts?

[hard cliff]

Arakaali's Fang poisons on hit

ARAKALI SPIDER HERALD HERALD LOG IN ?!

[elfin shale]

Lancing Steel of Spraying i think

Maybe Ethereal Knives

[hard cliff]

Lancing steel is a great idea

[stuck phoenix]

it's a decoration

I forgot the name

[hard cliff]

It needs a sword or axe

[undone gazelle]

If I wanna run fusillade again but on phrecia what would be good, considering that my amulet and ring slot might be locked by timeclasp and timepiece

[stuck phoenix]

but it's just a black cube

[elfin shale]

Blocking Volume

[hard cliff]

What about this

-Cobra Lash (enables arakali) + GMP + Faster Attacks + ???????

[compact bronze]

Ohh, very nice

[hard cliff]

Can you play arkaali without a squire

or is that illegal

[drowsy eagle]

bido is purple

[stray sedge]

yeahhhhhhh might try some slammer duelist

[stuck phoenix]

most would call it blue, but yes.

I turned blue

[drowsy eagle]

I need to delete my message history

[stuck phoenix]

xdddd

I have only bonked bots so far

and deleted some trade posts or so

[hard cliff]

The Squire is like what

50 divines ?

75 ?

1 mirror ?

Damn I need to go minion poison for this I bet

that sucks

[fiery marsh]

In phyrexia no. Inflation will make other things unattainable

Mainly your relics will be extremely expensive

[drowsy eagle]

iirc phrecia people were farming rouge and pooped tons of uniques

[hard cliff]

That's insane

What the hell is a relic

[drowsy eagle]

idol

[hard cliff]

Ohhh ok

[final owl]

the thing that made people actually like (or hate) phrecia league

did you just not play it or something

[fiery marsh]

Rogue nerfed tho. Idk if it still works. Ritual interaction was gutted

[hard cliff]

No, I thought they were called idiols

also yes I quit at maps lol

After I got my box

didn't wanna deal with idiols

still don't

[drowsy eagle]

but we have async trade now

[hard cliff]

Yeah so true

That'll help

[brazen vector]

Giga blight will poop uniques, dw

Squire 1c

[final owl]

i can assure you phrecia 2 will be idol boogaloo, if you don't like that aspect

[fiery marsh]

Yeah but there still gonna be extremely expensive

[hard cliff]

Hopefully I can just steal cheap builds from people

I like expedition and harvest well enough I guess

[fiery marsh]

Every build cheap lol

[opaque wing]

I mean, can always do the Deadly Prey idols+ Meticulous Appraiser idol+ Arid Lake strat for giga uniques if they're needed

[fiery marsh]

Mageblood maybe hold value. Probably not cuz breach

[fickle glen]

What to do when this event glitches? No more monster and it won’t finish

[hard cliff]

it's so over

[fickle glen]

😩

[hard cliff]

is the new foulborne mageblood good?

[fiery marsh]

Indigon gonna be expensive af

[final owl]

it is the same

[fiery marsh]

It's the same thing

[hard cliff]

sure but which one is better

[final owl]

the only difference is which 4 flasks are affected

[hard cliff]

which format is better

[final owl]

neither

as in it literally makes no difference at all whatsoever

[fiery marsh]

Boss drops will be expensive cuz mostly ppl gonna be mapping

[final owl]

when we're sayinf it'e the same thing, that is what is literally meant

[hard cliff]

https://tenor.com/view/i-dont-believe-you-whatever-lies-gif-3602502

[brazen vector]

Its true

Just put your unique flask in the middle slot

[jagged raven]

which build are u guys playing for the phrecia event

[hard cliff]

we don't know till patch notes

[fiery marsh]

Whisperer dex stacker kboc

[jagged raven]

oh when does patch notes drop

[hard cliff]

I want to go minions if I can avoid spectres

[hard cliff]

no clue

[brazen vector]

Bog witch aul relic of the pact adorned stacker

[final owl]

in the days before the new league starts typically

[jagged raven]

ok

[opaque wing]

Need to see the changes that they have for the ascendencies, but assuming no major changes, Servant of Arakaali Summon Phantasm

[jagged raven]

is that english?

xD

[fiery marsh]

Jugg nerfed

[hard cliff]

he needs it

[brazen vector]

No, its PoE

[jagged raven]

lol

[fiery marsh]

And fishing shit gone

Meme tier crit lol hopefully they extend like last event

[opaque wing]

They have an actual league planned, so hopefully not

[final owl]

they have been adhering to the 4 month cycle pretty closely. why would they extend

[fiery marsh]

At least a month. They ain't gotta do no maintenance on phrexia

[fickle glen]

This cool looking slayer popped out of nowhere and started slaying with me

[final owl]

4 months is already longer than any league needs to last

[brazen vector]

Huck cosplay

[opaque wing]

No, but they do have to give downtime for players to detach from one league of PoE, to get ready for the next without burnout.

[fiery marsh]

Burnout lol

[fickle glen]

It’s an npc tho

[hard cliff]

hell yeah

[brazen vector]

Then its huck himself

[fiery marsh]

Fucking 4 month league bro.

[hard cliff]

we got phrecia so reddit will shut up

[normal hedge]

hes clearly not talking about that

[fiery marsh]

Phrecia is the best event ever

[fickle glen]

Looks like battle beast from invincible to me

[normal hedge]

hes talking about phrecia -> 3 weeks -> 3.28

[elfin shale]

@hard cliff Am i cooking with Oath of The Maji+Precursor's Release

[fiery marsh]

No league or event touches phyrecia

[brazen vector]

Nothing beats affliction

[true falcon]

Worst part about PoE2 is having to remember all of the PoE1 mechanics. Like I forgot poison stacks infinitely

[fiery marsh]

Phyrecia

Phyrecia is 100x affliction.

[brazen vector]

Phrecia

[final owl]

where is the y coming from

[drowsy eagle]

Phrecya

[fiery marsh]

Phyrecia is the most loot you will ever see in the game period

[hard cliff]

sounds awful

if everyone has loot it has no value

[final owl]

phrecia was not totally unlike the current temple situation in PoE2.

[brazen vector]

Poo2

[fiery marsh]

This shit will be bonkers too with risk scarab every Mao

Map

[final owl]

in terms of those who locked in good idol setups early made so much bank the economy got wonky

[fickle glen]

Inflation

[elfin shale]

@hard cliff Ive cooked real and serious dogshit

[ocean field]

gng do any of you know any skill or method that adds attack speed to cast speed or the other way around cause I distinctly remember someone in yt saying the ability to do to but I can't remember

??

[hard cliff]

nice

show me

[elfin shale]

Daughter of Oshabi EBlade

Ill whip up a PoB in a bit

[fiery marsh]

100x that. There are ppl who have dropped 40 mirrors last event

[elfin shale]

Wylma's Requital

Note the Ancestral Bond also on the item however

[true falcon]

Phrecia idols more loot than standard

[hard cliff]

isn't that a ranger class lol

[elfin shale]

Yup

[ocean field]

ah yes thanks

[leaden jacinth]

So are they adding the phrecia stuff to private leagues permanently to be turned on or just during the even?

[fiery marsh]

Necro on crack

[brazen vector]

Phrecia idols more loot than ruthless

[opaque wing]

attack speed to cast speed? I'm fairly certain there isn't, I assume you're inverting it or whoever you're getting it from inverted it. There's ways to get cast speed to attack speed, but not the other way around.

[ocean field]

Wilma's Requital

[true falcon]

I wonder since we're have asybc trade, if we'll get idol crafting for SSF

[fiery marsh]

They disabled it with pohx league soo

[ocean field]

that is what I was looking for

[fiery marsh]

If they buff drops of idols win win

Said 50% off map boss

[hard cliff]

how would you even get es?

Shadow area?????

[opaque wing]

Eh, idols were common enough last time, just clunky to trade, async will probably more than make them feel more abundant this time.

[fiery marsh]

Recomb time

[elfin shale]

Oath of the Maji doubles base ES from body armour

I have not thought further

[brazen vector]

Idr was there unleash tech in phrecia ascendancies?

[fiery marsh]

Scion is a good start for noobs

[opaque wing]

There was not, that's new to the bloodlines

[fiery marsh]

Could be nutty with new foulborns too

[true falcon]

2 leagues in a row rolling a Ward based build

[hard cliff]

Ivory tower

[brazen vector]

Sadgely

[true falcon]

But now I have Antiquarian

[brazen vector]

Wait why am I even awake

[ruby otter]

wait they're just doing another legacy of phrecia??? oh no, this is another one of those "all our devs are working on POE2 right now" things isn't it

[true falcon]

No this is a mid league mini event

[opaque wing]

They would have stated if there was a delay if there was one planned already.

[fiery marsh]

It's dex stacking whisperer time

[final owl]

it is definitely a "this was popular and people have been asking for phrecia back in some form for a while now" thing which also is less work for them

[ruby otter]

oh... I guess that's fine then...

[opaque wing]

If it was a delay they wouldn't be ending it just in time for the PoE1 teaser cycle.

[ruby otter]

I did not know it was like a mini league

[fiery marsh]

If it delays to March 13th?

It is probably the most popular event ever?

[hard cliff]

[fiery marsh]

Like 327 nerfs don't even bother it

[opaque wing]

Idols being divisive alone will make sure this isn't the most popular event.

[hard cliff]

[brazen vector]

[fiery marsh]

90% of ppl don't even hit 90

[strong totem]

Well .. no gems and untouched soul

[fiery marsh]

Kboc break my game

[strong totem]

Bruh how am I going to hit level 90 without hierophant

[fiery marsh]

+1 fork

[fickle glen]

What’s that

[strong totem]

Templar ascendancy

[fiery marsh]

I suspect early zones acts gonna be pretty hard tho

[fickle glen]

Weak

[hard cliff]

good

[heady cliff]

async trade

[spice pecan]

literally ancestral commander

that ascendancy is incapable of dying

unless they nerf it

[final owl]

yeah AC makes leveling / endgame pretty cruisey

[strong totem]

Hiero best

[spice pecan]

hierophant doesn't exist in phrecia

and isn't even the tankiest asc in regular poe anyway

[final owl]

s'why it's gonna be hard to not just go with AC cyclone again.. which is what I did for last phrecia :I

[strong totem]

It's the best ascendancy in the game

[gritty garnet]

let's not address the hierophant in the pob

[opaque wing]

Some people still don't like having to fiddle with their idols instead of the tree. Its going to be better for sure, but some people will just get turned off completely because of idols.

[fiery marsh]

Nerfed 100% Ben won the gauntlet with it too

[heady cliff]

i thought of elementalist then i remembered that phrecia deletes it :(

[hard cliff]

you can zoom still f/f him I think

[spice pecan]

as someone who plays multiple hiero builds every league, i will say it's not even close to the best ascendancy in base poe1 lol

[hard cliff]

maybe

[heady cliff]

what could you replace it with for harold stacker or just abandon the idea?

[spice pecan]

herald stacker probably plays either scavenger or ac

tbh

[hard cliff]

their is an entire herald axcedasny on witch

[spice pecan]

and it's bad

[strong totem]

Click arcane surge. You are now playing the best asc

[hard cliff]

it'll be fixed

trust @spice pecan

[spice pecan]

my brother in Chris, that is not the solution

[heady cliff]

anyway best builds would be almost for sure abusing some obscure foulborn mod

[strong totem]

It's the whole pizza

[heady cliff]

and some phrecia gimmicks

in combination

[spice pecan]

most of my poe time has been playing longneck lefty

if you want to hit level 90 with literal zero effort, play RF scav, or play literally any slam on AC

assusming those aren't nerfed, which they probably will be

you can straight 2 stone on AC with like, act 3 gear

[livid quarry]

dont nerf ggg make everything op so ppl wanna play

[hard cliff]

stinky

[strong totem]

I tried to level rf today on hc. I nearly fell asleep without arcane surge

[spice pecan]

then play AC slams

[strong totem]

I only play spells nowadays

[spice pecan]

then play fuckin scav EK

lol

[strong totem]

Mana stack only

Hiero is the best

[elfin shale]

okay so this might not be the most realistic leaguestarter

[spice pecan]

then play dex stack whisperer

you get 1 mana per dex

and you get free awakened fork

[strong totem]

You know what.

[spice pecan]

you don't have to play kboc even tho it's the best skill for it

you can play selfcast power siphon of the archmage

or even selfcast ice spear of splitting

[strong totem]

Whisperer is missing a lot of qol

[spice pecan]

okay i'm not taking that bait lol

[strong totem]

Namely arcane surge

[brazen vector]

Why not play herald herald stacker

[spice pecan]

what if there was a support gem that gave you arcane surge

maybe even at like, level 2

that would be INSANE

[elfin shale]

or a cluster

[normal hedge]

coming calamity is bad for lycia ascendancy

[spice pecan]

or a passive node on the tree

[strong totem]

Hiero arcane surge gives 20% more spell damage

[spice pecan]

who cares

[strong totem]

I care

I scale effect

[spice pecan]

you can get far more than that by not being married to the concept of arcane surge

and by that, i mean you can get far more of everything that that buff grants

[strong totem]

There's a reason for this

[brazen vector]

How much rmr do herald stackers get?

[strong totem]

It's frostblink of wintry blast

[normal hedge]

eh

[spice pecan]

whisperer gives: awakened fork, mana scaling thru dex, 4% of mana as lightning damage, and crown of eyes

[normal hedge]

12% mastery, 20% presage, 12% enlighten

[spice pecan]

you can also drop crown of eyes node for 4 min power+frenzy charges

[normal hedge]

vs 200% from coming calamity

[spice pecan]

you can also drop crown of eyes for rage on mana spend

[brazen vector]

Yea okay, case closed

[strong totem]

I need speed

[spice pecan]

and rage will give you everything arcane surge is

[opaque wing]

I have to assume that whisper node will get chopped given there's an oshabi one that basically is the same the same effect.

[normal hedge]

herald ascendancy literally a downgrade for herald stacker (lycia+herald of hive) xD

[strong totem]

I wouldn't want to play an attack. I'd rather go spark or fireball whisper

[spice pecan]

spark blind prophet is a build iirc

but probably busted on whisperer too

[strong totem]

They go coc?

[spice pecan]

if you want coc, go surfcaster

[brazen vector]

What will berth do without fross occultist

[spice pecan]

free 10,000% inc crit chance

[spice pecan]

this is literally what i was thinking LMAO

[strong totem]

Can't attack with a fishing pole sir

[normal hedge]

berth gonna do eviscerate

[spice pecan]

fr*ss bog shaman will probably be a thing tho

[elfin shale]

https://pobb.in/oei8EgFa_loA
Can anyone take this into a playable state i have no idea where to go from here

What fuckin skill do i use

[brazen vector]

Purity of element to fix res

[spice pecan]

maybe equip items

or a skill gem perhaps

[strong totem]

Blind prophet has base crit for coc. Surfcasting no coc

[elfin shale]

Whats the popular attack skills nowadays

Is it all smite

[spice pecan]

smite, molten strike, ehit, LS

mamba

[opaque wing]

Lightning strike is still decent and played.

[elfin shale]

hmmm fromst blades

[spice pecan]

LS blind prophet will still be good

[hard cliff]

@spice pecan

that's a great idea

[brazen vector]

[spice pecan]

idk i had a blast on kboc whisperer in phrecia 1, i'm almost definitely playing wintertide bog shaman this time

unless there's a league start perma vaal coldsnap build

[strong totem]

Tell me why this won't work with coc

[hard cliff]

oh man you can do more than a freaking brand

[normal hedge]

https://pobb.in/xnA4gMpDY7rm

[spice pecan]

to be fair this is actually incorrect and is bugged

[kindred silo]

tell me wut skill u can use

[normal hedge]

still good

[spice pecan]

that node back in phrecia actually just gave like 10,000% inc crit chance

which made it not work with herald of thunder

[strong totem]

It's because we can't attack with a fishing pole

[normal hedge]

ah custom modifiers w8

[spice pecan]

but ye if you have any skill with more than 0% base crit then it works

[drowsy eagle]

just bonk the monster with it

[normal hedge]

https://pobb.in/CuTswi7Q7VbM

[spice pecan]

you can literally default attack to proc coc

[strong totem]

Vaal eq weapon swap

[spice pecan]

is it good? probably not

but you can absolutely proc coc with it

[strong totem]

How are you going to link default attack to coc?

[opaque wing]

How are you linking CoC support to default attack in PoE1? 😛

[kindred silo]

can u?

[spice pecan]

make siphoning trap or kbolt of frag playable, and ill cook

till then, im out the kitchen

[spice pecan]

no i am dumb

this is why i don't cook builds

[elfin shale]

You can with Cospri's

wait

[spice pecan]

oh wait

yeah you can

[elfin shale]

hrng and the CoC chest needs unarmed

[hard cliff]

coc chest

[spice pecan]

there's always coc shako

which i think actually works with default attack

but i'm not surgeongeneral/poopbutts2200-pilled enough to test that

but i know there is a way to trigger coc with default attack

[true falcon]

I played Kibo of Frag last league :)

[hard cliff]

will antqiyitarian get buffed?

[spice pecan]

i'm so fucking sorry

[hard cliff]

that was a cool class

just under powers

[spice pecan]

make behemoth able to use spells but at like a 175% cost multi or something

[hard cliff]

https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Antiquarian

[elfin shale]

Use spells but still no damage with spells and ill take it

[spice pecan]

make gambler pendulum effects be good on both sides

[true falcon]

It wasn't that bad damage wise, it was just awful because I was Ward based and never got enough hits/second to refresh my ward fast enough to be my only defense

[spice pecan]

if you didn't experience 3.23 kbof, then i truly am sorry

[strong totem]

I think we'd need a shaper fishing pole. Nah, I don't believe default attack can coc

[spice pecan]

one swing, delete uber

[true falcon]

Yeah, I skip anything vaguely "played"

[spice pecan]

there's a reason they orbital nuked it LMAOO

[true falcon]

0.1% builds LOGIN

[earnest raven]

https://tenor.com/view/homer-smart-simpsons-flames-gif-12447941

[spice pecan]

it is still "playable", it just requires about as much investment as making fuckin Bear Trap your main skill

whereas you can just play regular kbolt on a dogshit gear str stacker at the same effectiveness

[hard cliff]

these plus a blood line

[true falcon]

It was better than flame surge of combusting when I read it wrong and thought ignite duration scaled the damage

[spice pecan]

wasn't that a mathil build or am i tripping

[true falcon]

No idea

[spice pecan]

flame surge in general is another skill i'd like to see them give some love to

[true falcon]

That one does keep getting stronger as they add more "ignites deal damage faster" things.

[spice pecan]

that and base LC are poo2-coded skills from far before poo2 was an idea

wait fuck, tristack TS miner aristocrat was a build

[hard cliff]

it's best friends forever with arcanist brand and Flammability

[spice pecan]

god dammit idk what to play anymore

[hard cliff]

wait till patch notes

[spice pecan]

no dude you dont understang

[hard cliff]

ok

[strong totem]

Omni aristocrat

[spice pecan]

i need to get hyped for a build, only for it to get orbital nuked mere hours before the patch goes live

and then rip my hair out trying to find a diff build to play

(image of me wanting to play hexblast mines before stealth nerf in 3.26)

[hard cliff]

support link paladin

[spice pecan]

i think wtb bog shaman is like my fallback build tho, i'll play it as long as something cooler doesn't come around

i'll play paladin if i have friends that want to group play

but wtb shaman is probably very safe from nerfs and probably only gets buffs, so i think it's a solid fallback choice

[strong totem]

Play with 3 paladins for all 3 auras

[final owl]

I might just do AC cyclone again with the expectation i'll just bail at 90. if it manages to hook me proper maybe i try something else

[spice pecan]

AC is surely getting nerfed

it was literally the strongest ascendancy poe1 and poo2 have ever seen

[final owl]

hasn't yet so I am free to get hyped for a build, only for it to get orbital nuked mere hours before the patch goes live

[normal hedge]

all nodes could get nerfed and it would still be strong

[final owl]

yeah i don't really believe it's going to get gutted

[spice pecan]

yeah but im saying that AC is one of the sketchiest ones to hype about

AC and scav are likely the prime targets for nerfs

[final owl]

yeah that doesn't bother me because i don't actually care what i play. that's my plan and i'm sticking to it, until i'm not.

[spice pecan]

totally fair. hype up behemoth buffs instead tho

[split maple]

I wonder how much they nerfing whisperer

[spice pecan]

probably 1 mana per 2 dex

[thick goblet]

i wonder how much t hey'll change the vaal one cause of the vaal bloodline

[spice pecan]

they likely leave awakened fork in there

[split maple]

I am rolling ancom unless it's literaly nerfed to trickster level of mid

[elfin shale]

0% and we get some truly heinous perma vaal skill builds i hope

[spice pecan]

but nerfing the dex stack node by half wouldn't kill the build, but it would make it way less good

[dusky urchin]

Cls

Like

[spice pecan]

a real perma vaal coldsnap would go hard, lance's 3.27 version was too janky for me

[thick goblet]

i hope so, and i also hope uber dan (like the real one) cooks up something

[granite nexus]

if they dont nerf Anc Comm too much ima do GC again. thats really good

[thick goblet]

i might go vaal bv cause i saw a post on the subreddit about it the otehr day

and that looked cool

[split maple]

So okay whats the likely nerfs, 3->1 Max endurances and some conditional on defiance kinda like defy pain?

[kindred silo]

probably just 15 -> 10 and 2 end charges

[granite nexus]

i think its probably 2 end charges

[spice pecan]

BV MENTIONED

[kindred silo]

no need to gut the ascendancy

[normal hedge]

wish spider ascendancy was better

[spice pecan]

dont rly care about nerfs, i just hope they make the unplayable ascendancies better

[gritty garnet]

yeah cats > spiders

[spice pecan]

behemoth, gambler, etc

[kindred silo]

behemoth playable

[spice pecan]

go play it and tell me how playable it is

[hard cliff]

meow

[spice pecan]

i dare you

[kindred silo]

i did

and it was good

[split maple]

Gambler could have some funny memes with treachery graft and invert reses chance stack

[normal hedge]

bruh

[spice pecan]

do you also think dex stack vgyre is good

[kindred silo]

no

[gritty garnet]

would be funny if rampager also disabled grafts

[ionic folio]

Will you guys play phrecia

[kindred silo]

it was like 100m ls w/ good max hits

[spice pecan]

yes, that's the reason we're all talking about phrecia rn

[split maple]

Gonna farm me a milion morigans and jucie then go back to keepers

[kindred silo]

although that setup probably got half the dps now

[split maple]

Tho I am kinda worried about idols changes

[thick goblet]

big brain, get your beast farming done in phrecia

[sacred bane]

whats all this about phrecia?
new event league?

[empty ivy]

a short-term event league of 3 weeks, based on Keepers
replaced the Ascendancy into a completely different one
replaced Atlas Tree into Idols

[opaque sphinx]

https://tenor.com/view/magic-trick-ricky-berwick-card-vanishes-in-thin-air-card-disappears-gif-14561828700475520529

[split maple]

Also harbs and ultis heck 😄 I am rly hoping they aren't touching idols too much

I keep forgetting how broken they were compared to current state of game

[opaque sphinx]

poof first click

[umbral crag]

Nice

Quit league

[blazing ore]

are toxic sewer and wastepool the exact layout except the boss room?

[split maple]

🤔

[barren river]

I will probably play MFA

[opaque sphinx]

holy

bought 2 more hom

both went poof

spent last 43d on unrequited

upped it to 5

sold and bought 2 hom

[hybrid harness]

so ur -1 tot?

or was that 1 -> 4

[opaque sphinx]

+1

i started with 3 poofing

[hybrid harness]

ah right the unreq counts as 2 too

big then

[opaque sphinx]

do i click again or just stop and buy simplex

[hybrid harness]

if what u have rn can get u that upgrade sell lol

or u go big cuz not like ur playing next week anyway

[barren river]

TBH I really hate idols

[opaque sphinx]

[junior otter]

I don't really like them either

I'll go for the level 50 box maybe but I won't bother with endgame

Just treat it like leaguestart act practice

But like hard mode I guess because of buffed areas and bosses

[thick goblet]

post updated pob

[opaque sphinx]

so close

[hoary scarab]

big smart

[steel light]

high iq, gambling addict

[opaque sphinx]

[opaque sphinx]

wait no i ditched sigil for clarity

[tranquil sedge]

async now tho

most of that headache is now gone 😄

[opaque sphinx]

wait this old helm too

anyone want an ingenuity belt?

#2┃general

[opaque sphinx]

ok this should be actual pob

idk why says 97 its 99

[umbral crag]

Will the corrupted graft push u to 3.5b?

[thick goblet]

holy that's nice

[opaque sphinx]

3.4 if the grafts i have now, had that implicit

if they were 4% int ones, prob 3.5 ye

[opaque sphinx]

tyty

[foggy jasper]

anyone know what they gonna play for phrecia yet

[barren river]

I dislike idols as a system :(

[opaque sphinx]

if i use other watcher we could get it to like 3.75

[tranquil sedge]

sure but at lesat most of the headache with them is gone

[barren river]

I like the wonky ascendancies tho

[tranquil sedge]

like it's not gonna be actively impeding your enjoyment anymore

just coz players are too stupid to price idols properly

[neon orbit]

u saying u want it?

[tranquil sedge]

saying ur in the wrong chat sir

this is for poe1

use that channel for poe2

[neon orbit]

ohhh ty

lol mybad bro

[split maple]

eh annoying, there is no 3.27 [alternate] tree in pob

i wish ascendancy and tree dropdowns were separate

[opaque wing]

I mean, its all one compiled thing, ascendancy data is the same as the standard tree data. (They're in the same JSON file)

[thick goblet]

kboc whisperer if it's mostly untouched, or commander slam something if it's not super nerfed
what im most interested in is how they're tweaking the vaal ascendancy cause of the bloodline, could be some cool perma vaal setups

[silent leaf]

Ancestral Commander buffs please

+5 max endu

[foggy jasper]

i might do herald of agony shiz

idk yet

[silent leaf]

oh right

time to search up smth for phrecia

[foggy jasper]

shhh

[split maple]

tree is a buff

like ancom with 6l and 900 pdps axe in like what act 7 😄

[silent leaf]

nah

you get only 600 pdps or smth in act 10 no?

since you need ilvl on the axe

im going HCSSF on phrecia

no banners is kinda rough though

[foggy jasper]

vigilant strike ancestral commander

[silent leaf]

CWS ancestral commander

im waiting for it

HCSSF VStrike is kinda hard to get going

[foggy jasper]

i mean i would assume hes going to do same thing as last time

with arakaali

[silent leaf]

shit

fml also why is all duelist kinda dogshit

for ssf

[foggy jasper]

go gambler

trust

[silent leaf]

like this is the only one i consider "good"

bottom one is ok ig you have petrified blood and if you dont fuck around with lori's

maybe some olroth schnenigans later

[gilded cairn]

how do you add support gems to this?

[opaque wing]

You don't.

[silent leaf]

you cant lmao

[gilded cairn]

so arakaali's fang + squire still mandatory?

[opaque wing]

Indeed if that's the build you're trying to play

That node is more for the fact that the spiders give the player
"Each Spider grants 2% increased Attack Speed
Each Spider grants 15% increased Damage with Poison"
as a buff

[gilded cairn]

doesn't that mean it's worthless for minion-focused builds?

[opaque wing]

That is correct, imo that node should be attached to the center, not to a minion poison chance node.

[grizzled lily]

minions do poison also

[whole bluff]

Yoooowwww sick

[silent leaf]

yknow what, i hope they extend 3.28 timeline so they can extend phrecia to 30 days

[gilded cairn]

is there some sort of perfect agony effect I can apply to minions? If i wanna play crit poison minions

[tranquil sedge]

u mean to 60 or 90?

[silent leaf]

i REALLY dont mind if its 60

90 i do mind

by 60 im already fucking bored

[tranquil sedge]

oh its only ~21 days right now

i see wym i thought it was 30 lol

[silent leaf]

yea

21 days is

not much

[tranquil sedge]

im not playing it coz to me its like a new league, may as well be

21 days aint enough to zero to hero a new build

[opaque wing]

There is not, the closest you can get is giving some crit-dot multi effects via Necromatic aegis, or the crit-dot multi support "Critical Strike Affliction Support"

[silent leaf]

no lyfe

[tranquil sedge]

even 30 would be too little to farm multiple mirrors worth of stuff if i wanted to

and try enough strats

[gilded cairn]

not even coralito flask + mother's embrace belt?

[opaque wing]

That would work if you have a legacy one in standard, the current version doesn't have Perfect Agony.

[silent leaf]

hmm

how hard would it to make CWS scion

we got stasis prison

[fickle glen]

If I use skills that reserve my health by 50% does that mean I am on low life status or will that become my new 100% health?

[minor mantle]

You're low life

u haven't lowered ur max hp u just reserved it i geuss

[rancid peak]

So literally just Phrecia with a few balances and the League Mechanic?

[opaque wing]

Yes

[rancid peak]

• Necropolis mods

So Necro-Phrecia Breach league

[final owl]

painful it doesn't come with ability to block defense breach

[opaque wing]

No, necropolis mods are different, these are just map mods applied to areas

[rancid peak]

Ohh

15 mod maps 💀

Lets see it

[fickle glen]

Trying to make this ring work

[opaque wing]

Well if history is to be trusted, the last time they did this, these mods didn't grant their benefits like quant.

[rancid peak]

Dont need the quant if Idols still work the same. Juice was insane

[final owl]

that ring is already great for light radius leveling

[fickle glen]

Is light radius just how far you can see in the dark?

[rancid peak]

Also map discovery

[umbral crag]

But.. why?

[rancid peak]

Like how much of the minimap is revealed

[fickle glen]

Evade chance

[opaque wing]

There are uniques that grant benefits from light radius scaling so that'd be the main driver to do so

[umbral crag]

For a whole ring slot? And that affects the dmg, doesnt help evasion much

[final owl]

thats it's base effect yeah. but eclipse solaris scales flat fire damage off light radius, thats the leveling tech

[gilded cairn]

how are you scaling evade with that ring

[tawdry olive]

At league start people were talking about light radius stacking wander before transition, but I don’t think it’s worth scaling beyond that

[fickle glen]

Damage of enemies hitting me is unlucky

Doesn’t that mean miss?

[tawdry olive]

Wait that’s not evasion

[gilded cairn]

that refers to the damage range

[rancid peak]

Ill be doing Arm Brand into PBOD

[split maple]

Lucky means roll twice and take stronger, unlucky the opposite

[final owl]

no it means their damage takes it's lowest of 2 rolls

[split maple]

It's Just smaller hits not less hits

[gilded cairn]

so you'll maybe survive 10% better against lightning enemies or something

[final owl]

if they happen to max hit twice in a row it does nussink

[umbral crag]

Not just lightning, but yeah pretty bad

[fickle glen]

I am tired of these devs not explaining how their stats work

[gilded cairn]

for other damage types it's almost nothing

[umbral crag]

Not wrong kekw

[split maple]

Whens the last time you opened wiki habibi

[final owl]

lightning just has the largest range from min to max. it doesn't do nothing Bfor other damage types. it just does.. less

[umbral crag]

Whats wiki - habibi, probably

[fickle glen]

I shouldn’t need outside resources for a fucking game, they need to do better!

[thick goblet]

ive been trying to get them to read the damage types ness bot message for like three days

[final owl]

my dude, if you are here to moan about needing external sources to play a game, you have chosen poorly.

[split maple]

So go play Candy crush or something

[umbral crag]

Have you tried using alt on an item?

That you should know how to by now?

Like pressing alt while hovering the item

[fickle glen]

Sorry I’m done bitching.

[split maple]

Whatever alt is on xbox

[final owl]

Like, I don't disagree in spirit. But this is genuinely the game that literally leans into being complex and inscrutable, even IF you read everything comprehensively.

[umbral crag]

Good point, but surely there must be a button for that

[gilded cairn]

to be fair, that ring was BiS for most shavronne builds in 2014

[split maple]

i get that game is kinda overwhelming when you are fresh and thats okay

its just the complexity is what that makes it fun longterm

wiki is a good habit to develop 😄

[fickle glen]

Yeah I hold left stick for that but it still doesn’t say what unlucky does the way you explained it

[umbral crag]

I thought it was pretty obvious...?

[fickle glen]

How would I know it’s not a “miss” it’s just less damage

[split maple]

(damage is what makes you hurt)

(life is red)

[final owl]

well, the issue is the difference between unlucky hit and unlucky damage right

[thick goblet]

it says damage

[final owl]

if it's an unlucky damage by definition it has hit, so there must be some damage

[split maple]

then it would be "Chance to hit of enemies hitting you is unlucky while..."

or well idk whats exact phrasing there probably not enemies hitting you

[umbral crag]

Unlucky things rolled twice and worst result is used.

Damage from enemies hitting you is unlucky.

Damage from enemies hitting you is rolled twice and the worst damage value is used

Idk

English ig

[final owl]

the devil is always in the details

PoE has a lot of devils in a lot of details.

[fickle glen]

English is not my first language I am sorry.

[split maple]

now whats exciting was when unexciting was introduced to the game

[umbral crag]

Fair

[fickle glen]

I speak Arabic as main

[stuck phoenix]

Is it an outside resource when it's linked on their homepage

[final owl]

then you just have a better excuse than most for getting tripped up. I can assure you it happens to english only speakers all the time.

[stuck phoenix]

Also ngl I do think it is explained in-game

[umbral crag]

I speak chinese as main, cool

[stuck phoenix]

Enemy damage works the same as your own

It has a range

Damage roll twice take worse result is logically comprehensible

English also isn't my first language

[split maple]

i am starting to kinda like idea of bleedshatter commander - thats without any passives allocated

[umbral crag]

Anyways, whats fun in phrecia that ppl are theorising? Ig we don't fully know the changes yet right to the phrecia ascendency?

[golden phoenix]

Words hard. Haha numbers go brrr. Number go up good except when not.

The only real truth

If dying: don't

[stuck phoenix]

And like, it can't be explained better in-game on the item without being significantly more wordy

[final owl]

idk, i feel like there have to be some new builds that would come out of foulborn uniques + phrecia but if anyone is cooking anything wild they're keeping it under wraps

I hate how the best use for these 2 nodes is to not play poison-focused minions

[stuck phoenix]

And it also can't be approximated properly because its value varies

[split maple]

i need patchnotes like tomorrow

and datamine the day after it

[stuck phoenix]

I mean, the second one was not made for poison

And it's behind the first one

I feel like the first one gives you a choice

Commit to poison or crit

[gilded cairn]

i guess... but using withered stacks as just a form of crit scaling
unless you also scale chaos hit dmg with 4white triad grip or smth

[gilded cairn]

does this involve a ton of abyss jewels

[opaque wing]

It can, but I'm planning the 50% poison chance from Skincrawlers+ Chance to Poison Support +1 eyeball until I get setup for a Darkness Enthroned to make two eyeballs cover the poison chance without the support.

This will sound like a very noobie question, but i am so oh well lol. Why are most kinetic blast elementalist builds i see on poe ninja primarily doing lightning damage? I know most of the bands have added lightning to attacks but is that it or is there other stuff im missing ok why pretty much all are doing for the most part all lightning damage when KB isn't inherently a lightning damage spell

[gilded cairn]

i might try that too... thing about unique-based skills like phantasms and spiders is that gem level scaling is off the table. I'm not that good at finding damage sources

[opaque wing]

Well to be fair, the strat I'm planning is to use The Dark Monarch, to just do overwhelming DPS by having 44 minions hitting twice a cast with returning proj. Like minion flat eyeballs will help, but the core is built on just doing overwhelming amount of hits that do poison.

Thunderfist as far as I can tell
