Bro this PoE2 league is so fucking wild, not even Affliction was this wild
Never was there a league where people were paid in PoE1 for just existing in a mechanic
I was paid 22d just for being in a temple
Like that is so wild
Was there a PoE1 league like that
Like people were paid to just tag along
I know Affliction was loot galore
Are u asking whether ppl were ever paid to provide quant bonus
It was a great league
Answer is yes obvs
But in such a large scale?
I dont know, because comparison of scale requires me to talk about poe2
Like I see many many groups advertising for people to join them
Which i dont want to do in poe1 chat
Man I want to talk about this in like PoE1 terms
That requires this chat to care about a poe2 league tho
True but I was hoping there was someone who played both lol
people would join pl, campaign skip, migrate to trade
Okay, I get that people don't like running campaign repeatedly, but what do you think the alternative is? Do you think Campaign Skip would also give you 70 levels?
buy private league
campaign skip 1 of each ascendancy
migrate to league
close private league
????
profit
you'd still need to level your character
in level-appropriate zones
and that means campaign
So your idea for a campaign replacement is to instead run through "maps" which span the entire level range from 1 to 70, in which you run through the zone killing enemies to level up?
there's no difference
okay what difference
? You still have to go into campaign zones and kill a bunch of enemies in the zone
so the benefit here is... not talking to NPCs a couple of times?
He isnt wrong tbh, the only difference would really be just no npc interaction
Wouldnt say quicker, would still be about the same
again, the slowest part of "campaign" is levelling up, which is why campaign speedruns end the campaign massively underlevelled
again, I think people have constructed this idea that "mapping" is inherently "more fun" completely regardless of any other context
Sure Mapping is more fun, don't think a majority would disagree with that, but it doesnt mean it would necessarily be faster
remember that, among other things, you wouldn't get the Atlas Tree
or, like, basically any other benefits of "mapping"
that make it not just functionally a campaign zone but with inconsistent layouts

If you could, it would most likely limit you being able to do proper mapping content until 60-65
like, maps are basically just campaign zones with inconsistent layouts, but you also have to spend an item to enter?
that's, like, two negatives and no positives
oof, you get unlucky enough to not drop a map and you're cooked 🤣
We NEVER said campaign was more fun btw
lvl 1 is going to feel the exact same no matter what the tileset looks like
the only real benefits of maps over campaign is a) ability to benefit from atlas tree, b) ability to benefit from scarabs, and c) ability to be rolled with currency that you don't have at low level
Again, do you have ANY proof of this?
so you just want more xp?
It sounds like you don't want campaign skip, you just want much faster levelling
which is fine to say, just don't pretend that's what campaign skip is
people have postulated about a theoretical "infinite delve" as a replacement for campaign levelling, since Delve is pretty good density even at low level
but just trying to replace campaign zones with maps doesn't actually, like, do anything?
im confused, what does ramp faster mean if it's not faster levelling
like genuine question
"You do not need faster levelling"
Meanwhile:
even rolling these theoretical "campaign maps" wouldn't serve much purpose because the main benefit of rolling regular maps is increased quant and rarity
in return for higher difficulty
so you are implying you'd only get better layouts?
and like, I don't think rolling "campaign maps" for higher quant and rarity in exchange for higher difficulty is particularly useful
for levelling
Yes, we all know about Blood Aqueducts lil bro, relax
Again, there's actual campaign speedruns, and they end up massively underlevelled because turns out you can run through zones massively faster than you can level up in them
Me 🤣
walking through zones is very much not the limiting factor in terms of "campaign speed"
unless you're really bad at layouts I guess?
So you dont even want to do maps, you just want multiple straight areas with mobs to kill
you can yeah, but again, the main thing that makes campaign "slow" is having to level your character up from 1 to like 65 or so
the actual "running through zones" is very much not the limiting factor for campaign speed
i dont think you can say that's in the framework ggg would agree, when they've said they dont want any form of campaign skip
He's right, Literally only feels slow because of how low level you are. As soon as you hit act 3/4, it gets pretty quick
you mean running shitty maps with zero loot? yea nobody is going to do that either
they'll just complain about that instead
no matter if you are in a "map" or on the beach
zero juice zero difficulty zero loot
Hello everyone I have a serious question
Wouldnt change anything. No movement skills, barely any skills and supports, would barely make a difference
side note, xp penalties are very much a thing, the speedrun is taking hard ass xp penalties by the end of campaign, because there's significant penalties for fighting significantly over leveled enemies. The only reason this is less of the case in maps is because enemies in map levels have a deliberately much lower "effective level" for determining xp penalties
so no, you would not be running massively overlevelled campaign maps for xp
you get the most xp from fighting enemies at around your level
do you think your campaign loot is even worth a dozen chaos?
which, guess what, the campaign nicely funnels you through
ur lucky if u get 20c by the end of campiang in value lol
you can run red maps on 20c of gear
that doesn't make it 'loot'
leaguestart builds are designed to run red maps on like 5c yeah
thats still trash
bro spends 24h in ossuary
running maps for a few hours to get 20c ?
but the reason people complain about campaign is that they want to make big bucks in maps
that is zero loot
Ranger * Default attack* if I upgrade Projectile passives the default attack do More dmg?
if you have nothing to say you want to end the convo
yes, the common exit of the idiot
it should yeah, default attack is a projectile
well, bow default attack
not sure why you'd want that though
literally any bow attack is just default attack but better
you can't find a coherent way to reason why people would run maps to get effectively almost zero loot for a few hours over running a campaign for a few hours which also effectively gets almost zero loot
and when people call you out for your bullshit you wanna end the campaign
that loot is worthless
its not even worth calling 'loot'
"I can not talk to people who don't agree with me"
^
Oh great thank you
one red map makes yo more money than the entire campaign
hell one yellow map with harvest already makes more
Look, I think a majority of players would prefer a campaign skip of some sort. I would love if Alts would instant be 65 and in maps, I make like 15-20 characters a league, It's just that your idea sucks 👍
of course its worthless
you think we consider value based on how much we make in campaign?
the only purpose of campaign is to reach maps
the point being made is that when people talk about "juiced maps giving loot", a single juiced map gives exponentially more loot than you get in the entirety of the campaign
no
campaign is zero div per hour
of course its your point because you responded to me saying if u ran maps instead of campaign for 4 hours you'd get almost no loot
you want to run maps instead of campaign zones
The XP WOULD BE THE SAME
im saying why would anyone run them
maps are fun because they give loot
maps without loot are no different to existing campaign
There's probably more mobs in the campaign zones than early maps
I use projectile and I use and attack dmg passives and tried to find the better on that’s why I’m asking
did you run out of coherent arguments again
Wouldnt mind that tbh
the point is that you're trying to insist that somehow replacing campaign with "mapping" would make it automatically better, but the main benefit of "mapping" over zones is that they make way more loot in endgame with a highly invested atlas tree and scarabs. And if you have neither of those things, then mapping is just running campaign zones but with inconsistent layouts
yea
im saying that we already do that and its better than the half-baked idea you came up with
Mate you will too. You'll run it, bitch about it, and still complete it like a good boy
ayy finally
yes
me
Me
ME
its easier just to leave lol
i dont need to see him anymore very convinient
It's wild that some people think only about surface level labels and no deeper
Id screenshot your messages in that case but i cba
maybe that's why he immediately turned to base insults
bro had very hard arguments for someone whos comments were on b0b5 vid in the rue drama 
he probably played diablo 4 once and decided lets try to cram some ideas from that here instead
"mapping" must be good because it's called "mapping" and not "campaign"
zero further thought
ironic he's talking about campaign skip especially with that poe2 tag on his profile lol
as if poe1 is the game that needs a skip to begin with
oh man, did you hear they made poE2 campaign even longer
just wait till all 6 acts are out 😂
I guess they didn't like people calling campaign the tutorial, so they really wanted campaign to be "the main game"
can someone give a good opinion for me to say so this guy would block me?
no matter how long it is
ask him why we dont make 5 div an hour in campaign
poe 1 campaign is simple asf. league start im finishing that in 8-10, alts 2-3 (Still wouldnt mind Alts being able to be instant 65 though 🙏 )
clearly that's what he took away from the conversation
I got some items from old player who helped me and I have too much attack speed and try to maximise default attack for fast relaxing farming to explore maps that why I’m asking for Projectiles dmg and Attack dmg
Still wouldnt mind Alts being able to be instant 65 though
they'll never do that for a bunch of reasons
but at least your second run will be like half ur leaguestart time
my leaguestart times are about the same as yours too
8-10h depending on focus
basic attack
relaxing experience
sure 
whats the tea for people malding again
I mean, mana really shouldn't be an issue, particularly for an attack build, even with very high attack speed
poe1 definitely doesn't need a campaign skip it in fact i don't even want it in poe1, but i would 100% take it on poe2 tho 🤣
oh right
campaign skip comvo yet again
a single mana leech node should cover mana costs entirely
Yeah, but when im making 15-20 characters a league, I'd REALLY love insta 65 for alts 🤣
i think campaign is pretty satisfying in poe1
Well
the pace of progression is fun
how many character slots do you have
yeah, what people want isn't so much campaign skip as it is levelling skip
join the "blocked by traplord" gang
u can feel ur build coming together
I might dial back on the amount of characters Imake now
which is understandable, but also there's no way they're giving us that
The base 24. I delete character in standard except for 1
yea we'll sooner get a combat dummy in hideout to test dps before we get that lol
yeah, personally I really enjoy running campaign for exactly that reason, the sense of very real progression as your character comes together
you remove the gear tho right
I only started playing in 2024, so I was still learning the game and making multiple characters to learn
ofc, I usually give my stuff to a friend who plays solely standard though
Didnt they mention smt like that? Or was i dreaming?
Tiny Text
i dont remember exactly
but i know its not an uncommon suggestion from players
I agree
You were the ONLY one bitching... WE had to go through it, not you 🤦
Feel like they've mentioned smt like it on one of their streams but i guess i could be wrong
the only reason ggg stopped communication for a long time is coz chris wilson had a bad take in kalandra league and got downvoted to negative thousands of votes and then they cried about it lol
torchlight has a dummy with a dps counter and its fun
You were on the side of complaints and giving ideas, which people do TO GGG, not from their viewpoint
community is a pain in the ass but lets not pretend ggg dropped the ball at times too
-# miss bex tho
i wonder how the game she does community managing now for will go
cuz afaik its not out yet
always find it hilarious what people go "everyone is disagreeing with me, this means I'm right and literally everybody else including experienced community members with thousands of hours of experience is wrong"
also even now their communication is pretty lackluster
that phrecia post fails to address severall points lol
- why did it start so late
- why is it ending so early
- when is 3.27 ending exact date relative to phrecia
- what date will the patch notes come
must be isolating to see the world like that
it wouldn't even be such a big deal if he could actually reason out his argument and justify his stance properly
but he can't even do that
i think phrecia will just be an end of the league event like we often get, like they used to do krangled tree or infi delve
Hes definitely the type of guy to type Sigh on instagram 🤣
its important coz it affects how people will play in the event, or if they'll play at all tbh
Another serious question
like this is just low effort on their part
Shoot
it does not respect players' time whatsoever
100% would bet they rushed that post out
feel bad for her, she left to be cm at riot's mmo, but the entire project got scrapped and restarted
and now she's cm for some mediocre top down br
If I use sockets on armor for bow attacks it’s the same like I use this socket on bow?
I will say, I feel like they have MANY more ascendancies locked away, I thought we'd see some new ones
unlucky yea
surely the mmo will release eventually 
in general it does not matter where you socket your gems except when modifiers or whatever specifically say that it should be in a particular place.
man, I need another source of Blood Magic other than Malachai's Simula to bridge the gap from level 44 to 61, but I don't really want to have to corrupt all my gems
but I think that might be the only option
an annual phrecia would be pretty cool
also i really wish they did krangled properly, as in everyone has unique passive trees and respecs are completely free
everyone having the same one makes like only two builds viable
Great I have a robe with 6 sockets and I use my socket items in that with supports
having a 6 link in your body armor is the same as having a 6 link in your bow, for example, most of the time
unless say the body has a line that says 'socketed gems have -15 to mana cost'
now it matters
Great thank you
the other situation would be if you were using triggers then the order of the gems matters
but again, whether its on a boot or helm or glove or body, just depends on the items
true, but also random per person would create some issues as well, ppl would be mad they got a bad tree and someone else got a cracked one
I think CWDT is the only one where trigger order actually matters
like there was an ascendency in 3.23 affliction that let u benefit from not having gems in your body armor
i think that's what it was?
since CWS just rolls every gem independently
so then ppl tried to benefit from that by using other rings and stuff
Understood Ofc
i think it also matters with the trigger craft
arcanist's brand applies in order too right, not that it would matter all that much?
ah yeah, fair enough
desecrate/offering is a commoncase
and yea it matters for the socketed gem trigger craft on weapons
but those are internal to a link
I think CWDT is the only case of trigger order mattering over multiple different items
and as a result which link you socket into which item matters
One more serious question and thanks everyone
In 6 sockets if I use 2 skills and 4 support. It’s fine?
u dont have to keep saying that u can just ask as much as u want lol
yes, that's the same as having two 5-links in the same gear
both skills will be supported by the same 4 supports, if all the sockets are linked.
*and the supports are applicable
a common example is corrupting fever + reap builds
well, assuming both gems can be supported by all the supports
Understood
i dont know what that means
he's just saying buzzwords lmao
the game isn't even out yet, there's no comeback to be made
Just want to draw the attention cause everyone discussing over here 🤓🫡
unironically less interesting than just going through acts
I’m not talking campaign I’m talking about sockets and skills
hes at it again?
new player help is for helping new players
bro cant take an L huh
that channel is for any questions new players might have
regardless of the question
also i didnt realise they changed the channel name again
oh, wack
ew
I got the help I need anyway thanks
np, just in the future if your questions get skipped here if people are discussing other things
they'll be answered in that channel
so what, the moment a new player finishes campaign they kick them to the curb?
then theres after campaign help ig
oh it's because there's now "after acts help"
god damnit discord fix your mobile bugs
basically the point of the channel separation is how much assumed knowledge the askers have
like in new player, we assume they dont know the basics of the game at all, like how links work, that you need life/res, etc
if you've completed the campaign before, but still have campaign questions you're encouraged to ask in the other channels
since you're familiar with all the basics, and people can skip to the high level stuff when answering
I suppose cases of people not knowing how links work but having finished campaign are probably relatively rare
extant but rare
(after acts has been there for a long time btw)
still not a huge fan of the rename to "new-player-in-campaign-help" since it implies that new players who aren't in campaign can't get help on basic things, but ah well
should just be a single new player help channel lol why split it up, ppl who can help with acts can prob help with endgame too
there was someone a league or two ago who reached act 3 with a white bow and default attack
we were all amazed they stuck it out for so long without asking if it's normal to do zdps
coz the level of detail and knowledge assumption in the responses varies
It used to be like that
and also the kind of solutions offered to problems
Ppl got confused with responses too much and the channel got clogged
asking how do i fix my sockets in act 1 and in red maps is a wildly different question
Nonsense
The answer to both is ur build is shit reroll
we had a guy here ask if proj modifiers work on bow basic attack cuz he wanted to do "basic attack relaxing gameplay" just today
-# said guy literally just asked that a few minutes ago and im sure he's here right now lol
-# you might as well use his name 😂
BASIC ATTACK?
What a champ
Chad
ngl i dont remember the name already
hey if empy and group can make a default attack project
he can make his default attack build
-# it won't be good but still
yeah
man, the interaction between Rolling Magma and Sabo's 50% to return is very funny though, and quite frankly would somehow be less good if it were 100% return
it was an armour stacker
it doesn't count
the magma balls just bouncing around everywhere randomly
basic attack with replica dreamfeather
basic attack
i rest my case
it had 3 1p voices iirc
hey at least it was in league

yes but at least it wasnt in std
and it used smite for clearing
i will eat my desk if someone can kill ubers with default attack and they don't use an armour stacker
also:
obviously expensive project to minmax dps
used expensive items that let it minmax dps
nah it doesn't count its expensive
and they don't use an armour stacker
whaddya got against armorstackers huh
someone did uber elder default attack if that counts
the archetype is too good
I mean, literally this league int/Accu would do it no problem
yeah
its really fucking expensive for how much you get out of it
just coz it has a huge top end doesn't make it an easy suggestion to pick
Wasn't the armor stack default attack setup group play even?
straight up can think of multiple other skills better off playing for the most part
it was
i love that u care about smite clear bc its not default attack but it having 6 ppl required for the dps is fine
Then armor stack is probably the most efficient choice
Groupplay arm stacking is numerically absurd
already duo is enough
if someone uses an int acc jugg to kill uber sirus with default attack, i will eat my desk
mark my words
i remember herro's duo trickster armorstacker from some pl last league
shit was cracked
@brazen vector
no takebacksies
@opaque sphinx
@opaque sphinx someone threw a glove
come make her eat the desk
Duo->trio is supposed to be a major power spike, tho that's merely hearsay
it is tbh
bc the main dps doesnt have to spend 99% of their points and gear slots on aura effect and res eff
u can just get a gracebot
and use double overcap
i did it
show us
ah ffs
@barren river go get the camera
i'm genuinely concerned
remember that wood can be edible if prepared properly
Hopefuly it's some soft plywood or smh
lmao
that wouldnt be good ngl
remember the dude on reddit who said if x happens ill eat a book and he fully recorded a vid of him blending a book and eating it like dry cereal
at least in long term
Better for teeth than hardwood
if we ignore the consuming lot of wood part
Or fuck these old Glass tables
oooi esm, Didn't phrecia suck in ssf?
better than the guy on osrs that bet on getting hot coffee poured on his butthole and followed thru
i dont think wood glue should be consumed
I'm debating between playing trade or ssf during phrecia 🤔
i did trade last phrecia so dunno
that was a weird watch and i still have reservations
there's only like 3 weeks so, i'm defo going trade
I played ssf but I also only played for half a day
if you're not sure, you can just play Trade and not trade lmao
that said i never did non-trade so it was an easy choice
i am overoptimistic but i am planning to somehow squeeze out half decent beast and blueprint idols
then bust my ass off to get a quad of fully revealed bps and 50 mors for keepers
I'd rather play ssf so I can fill out a bit more of my ssf standard collection
I still need kalandra's touch and mb
wdym mb is just 5 wretched cards
lmao
time to eat my desk :(
that said div boxes were crazy last phercia
It's more of I haven't played SSF since MB came out because GSF
might do it again unless they bring some fancy new strats
been in a lot of 1-10 man GSFs over the last 2 years
trade is the place where stuff that takes a week to farm is 1c and stuff that's easy to farm is multiple divines lol
It's a strange place
indigon prices make me fall of my chair yea 😄
mostly because stuff thats hard to farm gets less hard to farm when there is thousands of people
I heard good stuff about idols for ssf once you get going
Indigon being 160c is wild lol
it will be divs on legstart weekend
maybe even double digit divs
Like it's rough first little bit but pops off hard eventually
yea the only issue is 20 days timelimit
with whisperer existing yeah indigon will be money
there any good unique farming strats in phrecia?
think it was only like 4-6d day 3ish of keepers
Hmm, wonder what I'd need to be ruckus ready 🤔
Strong box setup means infinite scarabs at least
Blightheart is always pretty good for gold / gamba
i am going to be humble and settle on some nice helicals and magic jewels, dont even need rare ones 🙏 pls game grace me with them morigan idols
@barren river pls ping me when u eat the desk
lmao "settle on some nice helicals" is wild
i wonder what new idols wil be coming
last 2 leagues someone in our gsf did over 2k wings before seeing their first helical
@wheat sinew 

you can print fully revealed bps with idols, so prayge in that week after phrecia i can run enough wings to be reasonable
otherwise cogies will make me happy too
want to yolo mist one, then if mist bricks gonna mirror the other ring
yeah we had a ton of every other ring
This league we had much better luck, multiple of all of the t0s ignoring the ultra rare item
the replica baited breath
ssf moment
got a hateforge?
There's a replica hateforge?
nah i mean the basic ones
What's it do?
oh you mean heist t0s
Ah, yeah just talking about heist
i want phrecia reveal of ascendancies
I tried to do it
why are you eating a desk lol
i might log in and do uber sirus on my guy
lost a bet 
i think my character was worth like 10 mirrors 2 months ago
Default attack
lol
i can never stick around long enough to get that much
i rly need to fix that section 😄
when the upgades are like 1mirror for like 2% i kinda just stop upgrading
top end builds can hit like 5m+ dps on default attack, even trade league stackers can get over 2m can't they?
What was the bet? uber sirus or something?
Remi said you cannot beat ubers with default attack on non-armorstacker
Kira has nice accustacker
lol That's wild. Got a vid? I'd actually like to see ubers taken down on 2m dps
that sounds like pain
ah
what you starting in phrecia Iks?
I will not play Phrecia
I'm thinking doedre's scorn harbinger
iks what was your old profile picture, something blue/green ish? i cant remember
a penguin in a wizard outfit?
did they revoke your wizzard license iks?
ok i have no memory of that
haha Had a friend make something for her stream overlay
told her to make it as fast / bad as possible
logged in and my basic attack tooltip is 4.2m without aspect of carnage
peak
basic attack on a top end acc stacker
he actually has 90.3 aps lol but no multistrike obviously
yep very balanced
I forgot to say non-accustacker as well
backing off now huh
too late
the desk wont eat itself, go work on it
I mean, tbf you pump 20+ mirrors into a build, it better be good lol
i think id instakill uber sirus with basic attack lol
whats auto attack called in pob anyway
get desk eating
I tried
Does strstack get enough numbers? Probably right?
Im stuck between PBoD Surfcaster or KBoC Herald
create a new gem slot, put no gems in it, select it.
enough for what
basic attack?
Yea
Im thinking Golems to replace Auras, Triple heralds, maybe even quad or quin if I can get Poison and Bleed
I think any stacker on 5+ mirrors of gear can hit stupid levels of normal attack damage
golems will die instantly
mine is at 20mill apparently, easy ooba though seeing how u stay alive easily
Yeah, thats why im thinking of it as a second character and farm for Elementalist FF/FF Golem
not even worth the gem slot
What do the greater harbingers do btw?
...?
Oh wait herald
100% inc hex area and cdr is amazing
uhh
herald is awful
wrong ascendancy
I mixed the 2 lines Lol mb
and yea impending doom harb is ok but i think its worse than occultist
what asc do you use for penis brand herald stacking?
fuck
I think it's better
not sure though yet
I"m sick
eh
hi sick
Surfcaster
idk rly what to use for hive that wont be just worse than elementalist
cdr isnt that good honestly, you need quite a lot of cast speed for it
sick of this BULLSHIT
you get action speed with decent uptime
surfcaster wont use hive probably youd just use bereks with shock prolif
its only 10% action speed
its pretty meh
That's good
Surfcaster is probably stilll the go to this league for most spellcasters
wait, made me recheck occy, where are you getting cast speed from on occy?
doesnt surf also get inc dmg and less dmg taken from self chill?
ur not, my point was about cast speed for cdr for impending doom
But this league will be dominated by KBoC Blind Prophet or Scav
was talking about the harb action speed buff
why would you do kboc on blind prophet
which is like a bad tailwind
instead of whisperer
ah
and yea, I did try to eat my desk
surely kboc would use whisperer
Free Nimis
you rly dont care about nimis, return projs is good enough
KBoC isn't even good with nimis
its probably better than whisperer
going anything else is trolling
imo
its not
i can see a case for surfy for sure, for blind for sure not

kboc has built in convert
Wdym?
what
Kinetic Blast of Clustering is a wand attack skill that fires a projectile that causes a series of explosions when it collides with enemies or terrain, damaging enemies caught in each area of effect.
It is a transfigured version of Kinetic BlastKinetic BlastAttack, Projectile, AoELevel: (1-20)Cost: (6-9) ManaAttack Speed: 115% of baseAttack Dama...
surfcaster has the esh chest mod as a node, the chill stuff is ridiculous and whisperer offers no speed
theyre both good
And you use the whisperer for the convert node
for different reasons
IG surfy if you don't want indigon huh
whisperer for high end pob warrior
u can use indigon on surf as well tho
btw how do you make ID work w/o vixens?
Yeah, but then you're just worse than whisp since you have less mana, no?
It's cursed ground right?
u dont
can you even use kboc with fishing rod?
There's definitely some strat to make it work
no, u have other benefits
If anyone's wondering, I genuinely tried to eat my desk
proof?
You don't click fishing rod
oh right
i think surfcaster wander is probably the best starter build lol
surfcaster without fishing rod just didnt make sense to me ig 
https://youtube.com/shorts/wU6oIyJ7hO8?si=6T-mBVQTYKoZaSiS
turn it into cookies
My official review of the cookies is that honestly the flavor of the oak wood had a hard time standing up to the strong flavor of the butter. There was a hint of something there, for sure, but I could've used more. Next time I think I'd either let it infuse for a lot longer, toast them even more, or maybe evne try smoke infusing the butter (thou...
Oh yeah starter for sure
u just spellsling forbidden rite for the easiest self chill ever
get a bit of leech and u are omega chilling
foulborn choir and then u have a pretty crazy build already
vixens it's really hard to get the cast speed to make the cdr matter
whisperer is a bit pob warrior imo
like its obviously strong but man idk how id give up the speed
idk, i've played kboc whisperer in last phercia n kboc guardian in keepers 
also sea legs is genuinely crazy in a 3 week league
if nothing changes it'll be broken
Can kboc boss decently day 1/2?
I always sleep on wands because I think their bossing is awful
then with whisperer you can ff ricohet
with surfcaster, a spirit gives you the bad touch
might be a bit overkill at that point tho
with buffed Grace of the goddess, atk sped per dex mod on chest
Should be adequate enough tbh
yea with bugged squaling tulgraft (+1 tornado works on spellslinged tornado) you get at least 5-6 overlaps on bosses in open area
game will crash insta with too many proj
like once you get indigon its ubers in seconds
before indigon its good enough for uber elder so good enough to get indigon
or you can ff oath of winter to freeze entire maps
feel like oath of winter is slept on
I don't think I've ever had a functional pair of f/fs lol
i do genuinely think surfcaster is the better option cuz the league is so short itll be hard to actually get the dex chest mod and shit
and sea legs + foulborn choir is just so fuckin good
i think its kinda bait to lean into dexstack early too much, just do conventional manastack even on whisperer
yes
and just grab like 500dex
this is another reason why i think u just click surfcaster
we know all / there is more just feels so good no?
yeah i guess with runegraft of refraction there's less reason to go whisperer for the awk fork now
I can see the point Ig, like with refraction runegraft in the game whisperer feels worse than hiero for kboc
Which is why mfa is much more interesting to me
Since that's really distinct from base game

oh hey, I appreciate that the flask uptime calculator has a special result for "stable enough for pretty much any realistic use case"
(ignore the fact u cant equip crown of eyes and replica alberons)
its good bro trust me bro
"if you need more than 30 minutes of uptime on a boss you have bigger issues"
If I did anything wand related though, I'd just want to be blind prophet
Don't get to play with nimis much
how do u even have flask uptime of at least 30 mins?
KBOC has one projectile, so random directions are a bit rough
flask regen stuff
is kboc so overtuned it's the only viable wand skill?
that would mean you're edging the fk out of it no?
if so that kinda sucks
Nah, you can play KBlast as well
fusillade and bolt are both excellent
kblast is excellent for clear but quite a bit worse for single target
can kbof too
I saw some fusillade totem stuff
Fussilade idk how it interacts with random directions
damn no kidding
that's kind of insane
Hello,can I curse and mark an enemy at the same time by default?
it's a calculator for flask uptime with Traitor or other sources of flask charges per second
Surfcaster looks nuts
Dang it. Thanks
sea legs, tormented, reverse chill, shock spread for explody setups, perma-freeze, etc. so many good options
ye i think people are overhyping whisperer a little compared to it imo
it was quite helpful, since I was worrying about needing at least 25% increased flask charges to actually round up to 1 extra flask charge per slot per 5 seconds
but turns out you earn fractional flask charges
like yes surfcaster was a bit weird last time
uber sirus final phase done with basic atk clip uploading now
Whisperer feels like a stackers dream, Surfcaster seems insane out the gate
Are they both shadow?
no
Kboc is what you can do on day 1
rip
whisp ranger
But other options also good
whisperer is ranger
Surfcaster is fun, but has the issue of being an all-in offense ascendancy
this is false
just wait 15 mins 

surfcaster is very strong defensively
is it?
can u even upload that?
yes
Brine Bound is insane
Im starting ehots wildspeaker into mfa whisperer and I am not getting fucked on legstart trust
glacial wave sir
nitro lets u up to 500mb
fishing rod build
i thought it was 100mb
you just perma freeze the map. Glacial wave makes you super tanky
goddaym
I hope we will be getting the updates they are making for Phrecia before Thursday. Ideally later today or monday.
enemies deal 15% less damage, you take 30% reduced damage
fair enough
because the effect is reversed on you
I mostly saw Surfcasters doing fishing rod meme stuff
i've been meaning to try crackling lance surfcaster
ye fishing rod shit sucks
with is a very fast but very squishy build
You do have to make choices though
with the crest of desire helmet
You can't be ghosted, have sea legs, have reverse-chill, freeze the map and take less damage.
oh shit
u drop the ghost or wear winterweave
So if you want to be all in on offense, you can be lol
yeah pretty sure you always wear winterweave and take stormy seas/glacial wave / sea legs + 1
well sea legs isnt worth it unless ur doing foulborn choir shenanigans
but if you are then its cracked
I think a lot of plans folks got currently predict large enough playerbase for healthy economy
Fingers crossed for yall
I don't think you're picking if you're not 
either way i prob wanna wait until they release patch notes before i figure out what to play
I don't think torment touched / storm's gift / cold damage can shock / brine bound is enough to make you want to pick surfcaster
If you're not using fishing rod or sea legs, I feel like you pick something else
Whats ur plans for phrecia
Ehots wildspeaker into mfa whisperer around end of week1
Also pobed lategame ehots if whisperer nerfed too much
Was behemoth ever tested out? Or did people kinda give up on it before phrecia came out
im going surfcaster spark cuz its funny
Kek
some people tried Behemoth yeah
i played frostblade of casablanca behemoth
I agree especially as surfcaster has no smalls which makes ur early league worse
it's not terrible, but it is just strictly worse for attack builds than pretty much any other ascendancy
RIP katabasis
yeh dps is like 13m now if u use katabasis still
It has no smalls? Yeah you have to really want to leverage the big nodes then
the biggest issue with Behemoth is that the lack of spell skills prevents you from running most forms of defense, so getting lots of fortification is largely irrelevant
That's pretty impressive. Did it feel squishy?
Surfcaster smalls are some fishing shit
got hit so hard lol
they really want it as cold dot
https://pobb.in/N-KXcOC2Z_Gt hopefuly config isn't too padded, I tried to make conners reasonable. Probably second Leech wheel isn't needed and prolly needs to take Master Fletcher somehow
not really, the recovery was kinda mid if not leeching but otherwise ok
you have massive range so try to kill things before they kill you
glacial wave is really really really strong though
I was considering gencry bflurry or rbov behemoth
I feel like the kit really lends itself to rbov
i honestly think there is potential with HP behemoth with the uber chest
777
w/e the fk
teachings
Ill check pob in pc ltr but pobbin looks good
Taht chest feels so weird to build around
where are you getting 50 rage from ignore
Im still trying to reaccustom from stupid pob numbers just now kekw
You always waste 2 or 3 stats on it

point yeah, there's a lot more lifestack stuff than last time
bog shaman is going to be unbelievably broken this phrecia
so maybe Behemoth could finally be the best user of that one lifestack axe
Yea, that's a build I'm definitely considering
you may want to consider a bow mastery for 100% increased mirage archer duration btw
screenshaker
it makes the build feel a lot nicer to play personally imo on single target
(and even sometimes when mapping)
hah nice
personally I believe that any melee range build should be basically invincible to damage to justify being in melee range
but that's just me
🙇♂️
@frigid wedge @split maple @barren river finally uploaded
Another angle for Master Fletcher yea
Need to tinker a tad
any of the phrecia ascendencies lend themselves towards life stacking?
bog shaman on witch
aggressively Bog Shaman yeah, it's the lifestack ascendancy
I feel like grey wind has to be puppetteer
bog shaman is completely utterly ridiculously overpowered
Marionettes is just so good
pretty sure nightblood lets u get hundreds of millions of penance brand dps on like 10 div of gear lol
just gotta get a pool big enough + a sustain engine
energy blade animate weapon of self reflection could work well on puppeteer
with the catarina node for specters giving es
I'm thinking greywind on me + greywind on AG + Self reflection + the rest of the build life stacking
rem its ur turn
they tried and failed apparantly
we dont take fail as an option
bog witch looks like a poe2 ascendency lol
buy one of those miniature desks, blend it up and drink it

-20% all ele res for positive effect, 40% more damage over time but lose 5% life/sec when hit for 4s, -3 max life per level for benefit, etc.
I only bit it
yeah you gotta eat at least a little
mmm scrapped wood finish my fav snack
hey she's the one who said she do it if someone did something very achievable
hm?
check pins
get some graham crackers and some marshmallow fluff
assemble a graham cracker desk
get a nice glossy finish with some tempered chocolate
and working desk drawers
deleted user

mans was convinced he was reading PoEs obituary
anyone knows when stash tab sale?
poedb
btw is there a website where i can take the ctrl+c format of an item and it gets converted into the ctrl+alt+c format version?
oh shit
Guys which build to use for mapping ?
Lightning Arrow Deadeye or Archmage Ice Nova Hierophant
la
did the desk taste good, is that ur surprise
both can be doable
i have to do it
video proof of course
isn't ice nova heiro kinda derd
Lightning arrow probably has the stronger raw clear just from being a bow build
if u build it fast and zoomy and squishy but big dps
ice nova was nerfed yea but i imagine u could still make it work
she is a woman of her word everyone
might play surfcaster wander just to prove a point
Didn't eat his hat, just deleted account.
coward
bro fuck the vram and ram prices, I'mma play dwarf fortress
guys is it fine if i yoink an old LS blind prophet pob?
doesn't dwarf fortress benefit from fast memory too tho
big boi cpu and big boi memory are nice if ur hitting game limits
it can run on a rasberri pi
im sure i mean if u push worlds to their limits
define limits... it's not a spiffing brit playthrough xD
triple digit dwarf count on a long playtime world ig
games like factorio or rimworld or dwarf fortress are sim games so ultimately fast cpu and fast memory are the bottlenecks if u go far enough
but for casual playthroughs yea it'll run on whatever
has other stuff that scale off accuracy
like jugg giving attack speed
Man imagine if all acc stacking did was make u REALLY REALLY likely to hit
and boots giving flat lightning dmg
ah i see
Five thousand per cent chance to hit
thats what im sayin
No other effects
i was sure i was missing something
Would be lit
200% accuracy = hits twice 
someone really just need to hit their enemy
Always > 200% 
damn i just made a 5th char am i really about to do a 6th
i hit 80 and swap everytime i have a problem
some of them arent even 80
Many ways to get accuracy, very many this league specifically and then they give.
Attack speed from juggernaut at 1% per 150 accuracy.
Damage at 1 to 6 flat lightning per 200 accuracy.
Crit chance if you wish with gloves at 2% attack crit chance per 200 accuracy.
But this makes an okay build at best.
Big reason it's good is that you can stack accuracy and intelligence this league with foulborn hand of thought and motion and get even more damage while also getting defence, which is what accuracy stackers usually desperately lack.
yeah i was looking to see what skill i wanted to use with these claws
Grafts also provide some big juice.
just figuring out if i want to do jugg which i dont have or just use my elementalist
You very much would want to do jugg if you wanted to play acc stack
If you're accuracy stacking you want to be jugg or be able to flesh/flame Undeniable.
Random build I pulled up from poe.ninja.
what skill am i leveling with poe has me by the balls
Can we see a 10m item in a 3 week league? Fuck around and find out in Legacy of Phrecia 2!
Undeniable is, like, the main payoff for accuracy stacking yeah
Yes, definitely.
Will anyone but 3 people be able to afford it?
Different question. 👼
I just did Ele hit with brightbeak this league and it was very smooth.
People sitting on half in a bid war. That would be fun
Damn
I do love misted gear.
I should get rich next league and actually interact with it for once. 
you can interact with misted gear on low economy as long as you need a lot of one stat and don't care what you sacrifice to get it
lose 30 life on hit? easy
True but not the kind of interacting I'm looking for.
Proper misted rings are like Mount Everest. You've never seen it IRL, but you'd be sad if it disappeared
Saw very many good misted rings in the wild during mercs.
Never dropped a single mist to this day tho. 
Same, iirc
I've had like 500 of them by now and estimate rate is 1/100.
I do have 10 mirror shards on settlers. I really gotta put that money to use before we move onto 3.28.
I was close to making 2 perfect Doryani rings
ele hit is funny you were right
How?
Ya can defo get to around -170
Lightning res and all ele res can both roll.
It's going to be very painful to make.
Mist applies multiplicatively yeah
With all ele res you can get even lower than -170
-222% if that rolled correctly. 
I like current state of doryani, interesting and strong enough to be worth considering on certain builds
So what you're saying is we just need 25% gem lvl quality on simplex
hmm, disappointingly, apparently Rain of Arrows of Saturation somehow deals less damage than regular Rain of Arrows even if you get all of the arrows to hit the same target
Makes sense IG
Ngl, they should make a misted version of ichxel
what's the point of Saturation then? What really needs those extra hits regardless of damage?
Same. Return of Phrecia does mean that Doryani flicker is back.
Ixchel*
Maybe Wildspeaker gets buffed somehow and the build gets better. 👼
Gain on hit stuff
MFA manastack runs it
You saturate your hit requirement for CoC ETC, almost immediately
If there's a few frames and you have an available cooldown on hit, you get it
God I miss this build.
yeah, I guess I'm mostly just disappointed that you can't really use it as a main damage skill
Filling 90% of your life each time you hit and instant leech making your ES fill immediately.
🥲
I love it
because it's just strictly worse than Rain of Arrows for actual damage dealing
I don't care about if it does dmg though
I do smh
It's nice that at least one of the trans gems isn't an upgrade dps-wise over the cis version
clearly we need some sort of hit-rate payoff support gem or something, focused fire support or something. +1 damage for each time the enemy has been hit by this skill in the past second
just fill the air with arrows
both are also capped extremely low for a true "hit rate support" type thing
Vile Toxin caps out at 8 poisons
which is wild
Controlled Blaze is better, but still caps out at 26 hits in 4 seconds
There's also HoAG IG, but that one's pretty easy to cap in practice.
but yeah, in practice something like +1 phys damage for each hit in the past second would probably mostly benefit already really strong builds, like MS Zenith, or the Accuracy Stack build
rather than the intended target, Saturation or Barrage of Volley Fire and such
If woespike had "impales on enemies you hit become 10% stronger"
lmao, now that would get out of control very quickly if it triggered on every hit
Maybe maximum 200%
Yeah
honestly, the biggest issue with most of these super high hit rate skills is their super low damage, which most solutions don't really address, and even the theoretical +1 phys damage for each hit in the past second is limited by the skill's very low DE
Woespike is probably the best "high hit rate payoff" so far because it actually just adds flat damage completely regardless of the skill's actual damage or DE onto every hit
Yea, some DE independent stuff is in the game, but since you can get genuinely absurd amounts of hits in the game, they have to be capped
If woespike wasn't limited to melee it'd genuinely be the strongest item in the game by a wide margin
yeah
disappointing for my dreams of max damage Saturation/Volley Fire builds, but ah well
maybe I'll try Woespike at some point though
there's not really any melee skills that I feel like really evoke the same "fill the air with arrows" of Saturation though
rain of arrows of saturation?
yeah
you can, but like I said turns out even with every arrow hitting the same target it's worse damage than regular Rain of Arrows
I just like the idea of Saturation and its ridiculously over-the-top number of arrows
saturation is mostly for on hit effects
yeah
okay let's see
oh
smth with an independent dmg ailment then
idk what
but a stacking dmg ailment
maybe also good for assassin poison
every Rain arrow is 0.60 DE, its base is 22 arrows, and it gains 0.2 arrows per 1% quality, so each 1% quality is 0.12 DE
Saturation arrows are 0.35 DE, its base is 33 arrows, and it gains 0.4 arrows per 1% quality, so each 1% quality is 0.14 DE
RoA is 15.6 DE at 20/20, while Saturation is 14.35. That's a gap of 1.25 DE. To make up for that, you would need 62.5% added quality
so, a bit much
things get very slightly easier if you're looking at level 21 gems, and in fact the higher level the RoA gem the more Saturation gains comparatively, due to Saturation getting twice as many arrows per quality but gaining more than half the extra DE per level compared to RoA
but you still do need very high quality to make Saturation even match base
but yeah, the key issue with Saturation is just that it has way way too many hits for absolutely everything, unless it's uncapped
at 20/20, it generates 41 arrows per attack, and has no attack speed penalty or anything
the point is that there's not really great ways to abuse it outside of, like, life gain on hit and such
Yo I just got disconnected in the eternal labyrinth, does this mean I lost the offering of the goddess?
with an extremely mediocre attack rate of like 6 attacks a second, that's 246 arrows a second. That's absolutely miles above absolutely every single cap on everything that's attack speed based
Yes, rip
yeah, unfortunately
