[icy zinc]

tripped over a key

[true falcon]

Is reddit even complaining? I just saw memes about like oak

[onyx heath]

yeah just lab

The difficulty is fine, but I think the gamefeel of PoE does feel worse when you're struggling to gear/kill things in early acts

[surreal musk]

https://gyazo.com/f9eba694e52458fd4c2509e25baf384a

[fair jackal]

in acts i normally don't have to fight every unique enemy before the act boss

also doedre isn't having temp bubble normally

[hoary scarab]

welcome to gauntlet bosses

its a lot more fun for me with them around

[opal ingot]

aw man i was gonna use those boots

+1c profit i guess

[scarlet sonnet]

Any build recommendations for Phrecia? I just wanna get to lvl 50 for the reward

[hoary scarab]

theres also a reward for 90

[onyx heath]

Honestly if you're just going to 50 most main game leveling builds will get you there

[hoary scarab]

just pick shadow and use cobra lash

[signal hawk]

Going to 50 you barely need to ascend at all, no change from a keepers league starter

[tough cove]

honestly most stuff is viable just to get to 50

and most decent builds will get 90 with no difficulty

rf and hoag probably your two best easy to gear options

as well as cobralash arakalli

[scarlet sonnet]

Right, just don't want to sufffer with the bossfights. I read about maven degen so dont know how good RF will be

[tough cove]

Cobra lash shadow probably the way to go if you just want 50

since first lab envy is so rediculously strong for leveling

[scarlet sonnet]

Gotcha, will give that a shot, thanks ^^

[lone night]

i mean the enrage was a bit annoying but it was fine
(i lvled with rolling magma )

[tough cove]

i did magma into srs for my early go

[tranquil sedge]

yea its a bit rough from what ppl are saying

u got this 👍

[proud gorge]

yeah screw it, I don't give enough of a shit to go to 90

I'm getting one mystery box and dipping

[fair jackal]

are you even supposed to complete act4?

[opal ingot]

xd

thats what i feel on act 3

[hoary scarab]

act 1 was harder than act 4 for me

and i didnt even upgrade gear

[lone night]

infinite retry tech

[opal ingot]

mine was act 1 to 3

[fair jackal]

how am i supposed to kill a piety, the 3 fuckers all at once?

with zdps?

[hoary scarab]

corpseroll

[proud gorge]

get some dps

[hoary scarab]

or dont have zdps

[fair jackal]

how man?

[scarlet sonnet]

Cast On Death

[fair jackal]

i can't roll a better wand

[hoary scarab]

what are you playing

[lone night]

oh yeah that one was fun good luck

[fair jackal]

kinetic blast of clustering

[proud gorge]

did not mean to send the letter f, I just sort of bumped my keyboard lmao

[hoary scarab]

yikes

theres a reason ppl dont level with kboc

[fair jackal]

kinetic bolt was even worse

there was no guide for it

[tough cove]

bolt is usually good for leveling though

[fair jackal]

so i had to wing it

[proud gorge]

if you are determined to level with KBoC, uh, get some flat damage links or something

[opal ingot]

fuck bolt

[stoic horizon]

yes you dont do either for lvling

[opal ingot]

swap to la

[proud gorge]

Added Lightning support

[ember torrent]

worst skill in the game fr fr

[stoic horizon]

fullisade is the only wand skill with servicable dmg in campaign

[tough cove]

power siphon you mean

[hoary scarab]

throw away both, get a random claw from a vendor, use cobra lash with 3 flat dmg links

[stoic horizon]

psiphon got bonked already and it was good on mines

[opal ingot]

+45% of 1%

[fair jackal]

will try that

[proud gorge]

that reminds me, is there any uniques that have, like, "can't regen mana" or whatever as a downside?

[fair jackal]

altough i still have a bigger problem with damage from enemies

[plush galleon]

will you get combat focus if you do the recipy with a trans ele hit?

[fair jackal]

will we ever get a revisit to the acts?

why do i get one shot by piety laser?

[proud gorge]

I still really want to cook something with Foulborn Quill Rain

to justify its existence

my boy foulborn QR deserves something

[hoary scarab]

wich one

[fair jackal]

why is the game expect capped out resists and good physical mitigation by act4?

[proud gorge]

the one that lets you attack without spending mana

[tough cove]

also i want to know who changed the chemist chest in prison so it doesnt drop anything

all i got was a lousy large flask instead of my quicksilvers

[proud gorge]

or, uh, attack with insufficient mana, anyways

[hoary scarab]

just go poison mana stacker assassin with council helmet

[fair jackal]

like people call poe2 the ruthless mode, but at least i can complete the acts there with one or two deaths at most

[proud gorge]

there's no good way to get it to function with MFA

[tough cove]

im planning on foulborn QR to carry my hoag build for a bit once i get to maps

[bright viper]

Is this a phrecia complaint or an acts in general complaint

[fair jackal]

kinda both

[proud gorge]

so my other thought was just to get a bunch of attack speed and attack super fast with a high mana cost attack without any mana regen/leech/whatever

[hoary scarab]

feels like its just made for mind

[fair jackal]

i have had a problem with act difficulty in poe1 for some time

[true falcon]

I just picked Sunder for campaign, idk what everyone is complaining about :)

[tough cove]

its only really act 1

[stoic horizon]

i feel exactly opposite

[bright viper]

Because some things you're just supposed to dodge, but idk why they decided to make it miserable in phrecia

[tough cove]

act3+ is a breeze

act2 is generally pretty chill

[stoic horizon]

poe2 campaign is harder than poe1 in my experience

[tough cove]

act1 can be a pita

[proud gorge]

oh hey, nice, that works yeah. I was trying to figure out "bow Archmage" so that works perfectly

[fair jackal]

fire storm meteors with taking one third of yoour hp with each tick isn't excatly dodgable

[tough cove]

poe2 campaign strictly depends on your class/build

[brazen vector]

Imagine if they reverted the acts back to normal/cruel and added the phrecia2.0 boss mechanics

[fair jackal]

or degends in general

the dominious ghosts and so on

[true falcon]

PoE2 campaign is really easy, unless it's impossible. There's like no inbetween

[proud gorge]

nice that Mind of the Council doesn't even say "unreserved mana" so you can reserve all your mana

[bright viper]

What kinda builds do you play

[proud gorge]

and still get the full benefit

though I do kind of want to build mana tank anyways

force Heiro

[copper vale]

Lightning arrow aristocracy

[bright viper]

For the record I'm not going to just turn around and say "oh play Bettrr builds xdd"

Just genuinely curious which ones you've had the issue with

[proud gorge]

no wait that doesn't work

you can't build Mana Tank with Foulborn QR since it spends all your mana anyways

[fair jackal]

i play semi meta builds

[proud gorge]

bleh

[hoary scarab]

wait wouldnt whisperer work well for your idea

[proud gorge]

sure, but I don't like idols

[hoary scarab]

well i dont like you

[proud gorge]

so I'm planning to build something with it in regular Keepers instead

[bright viper]

I see, I think more often than not in early acts its usually less of a res thing and more of a lifepool thing in my experience

And or if you're zdps everything becomes giga scary

[true falcon]

Oh wait. Widowhail + essence quiver is way stronger than I expected. What's the highest hits/s bow skill?

[hoary scarab]

good old TS

or barrage

[fair jackal]

sure, i know

[tough cove]

ele hit probably is the way to go with fb qr

[true falcon]

It doesn't have to do damage, just hits for ward refresh and wither

[pulsar dune]

With normal proj count either blast rain or roaofsat

[icy zinc]

👀 spellblading it up

[fair jackal]

just dex/int has limited life avability

and it is also dependent on life rolls on gear

[tough cove]

nah for spellblade jsut get a nyctas in acts

[pliant hamlet]

also fuck brutus

[snow summit]

is there any rewards for playing on the temp league?

[tough cove]

nothing beats nyctas for battlemage/spellblade stuff in acts

[hoary scarab]

glory, honour, wealth

[icy zinc]

nycta is prob good but this is accessible

[hoary scarab]

and 2 mtx boxes

[icy zinc]

also cast speed

[pliant hamlet]

mtx box at 50 and 90

[pulsar dune]

I don't think you can afford the gold fee for a T3 unique unless someone drops a low ilvl one

[snow summit]

ok thanks lads, any build recommendations

[tough cove]

its 5k vs 3.5k

[icy zinc]

nycta is way above 1c atm by the looks of it

[opal ingot]

no way

i played an excrutiating hour for poe2 level up effect

i need therapy

[sage falcon]

why was it excruciating

[stoic horizon]

you isnpired me to open my lvl 50 one now and i got portal effect 🔥

[stuck phoenix]

You can't use it in poe1 yet?

[copper vale]

0 it shares the same challenge reward as the regular keeper

[opal ingot]

nope checked yesterday

[opal ingot]

did u like it

[stuck phoenix]

Well, you can in the future, probably

[icy zinc]

balloon changed balloon heads

[plush sinew]

capped res 4khp i get 1 shot from fortress explosions.................

BS

[stuck phoenix]

Or maybe they won't make level up effects work hm

[snow summit]

oh really thats sad

[stoic horizon]

portal effect always good

[copper vale]

What build u play hucu kun

[stuck phoenix]

2 free boxes be like

[plush sinew]

5 minutes to get 1 shotted...........

[stuck phoenix]

Well, it's also not true

[copper vale]

Oh

[stuck phoenix]

https://tenor.com/view/how-it-feels-when-you-meme-nanami-jjk-gif-10683277372535996893

[copper vale]

From doing what

[icy zinc]

screw the boxes bro

idols hoooly

[stuck phoenix]

Imagine saying no rewards

[icy zinc]

thats the fun stuff

[stuck phoenix]

Without even having fucking read

[pulsar dune]

Those are afaik phys/chaos

[copper vale]

[sage falcon]

capped res is bare minimum anyway

if mapping is analogized to climbing a mountain, capping res is simply putting on your shoes

[plush sinew]

YOU SHOULD GET fkn 1 shotted anyway?

[stuck phoenix]

The only place you can read that would tell you no rewards also tells you what they are and how to get them

[plush sinew]

20% max

[sage falcon]

you shouldnt feel entitled to not getting oneshotted by just having the bare minimum

[hard oar]

Gambled it from the gamba vendor. I think it's quite neat while still being in act 3 start?

[pulsar dune]

Also did they give fortresses map mods?

[stuck phoenix]

That said

[snow summit]

@stuck phoenix never played the league before and seen it hyped up you know a good fun build for it?

[opal ingot]

i like to live dangerously

[stuck phoenix]

I only play homecooked shitty builds

[copper vale]

-40 chaps res

[opal ingot]

we dont talk about my chaos res

just avoid the green ones

[snow summit]

fairs guess ill try check youtube thanks for the info

[stuck phoenix]

Be wary of bad guides on YouTube

[fair jackal]

also what's the reason for these fcking energy shields on every boss?

[stoic horizon]

chaos res is a crafter propaganda to buy more expensive items

[opal ingot]

^

[plush sinew]

ok so i should atleast have 500k max hit is that what you are saying and if im not im just stupid? not the game thats unbalanced and annoying? that the main part of the mechanic that kills you is after you cleared EVERYTHING?

[opal ingot]

majority of the shit you see when you search are probably from bad guides

[hard cliff]

hello chat

[pulsar dune]

You should probably have some phys and chaos mitigation

But yea, those explosions are scary

[daring bluff]

kinda wish we had more POHX tier guides

[crimson hearth]

hello

[hoary scarab]

bye

[sage falcon]

im not passing a judgement on whether your death was justified. i'm just pointing out that capped res is not a significant factor for your argument.

[crimson hearth]

ive been going through maps rly easily now im at t12/13 but ive hit a wall feels like i cant progress

sometimes i melt bosses ok but sometimes i struggle with rare mobs also my survivability is shyt i have good hp and ev and 100% spell suppression but still

any tips?

[plush sinew]

its a valid argument beacuse u shouldnt get 1 shotted by a mechnic

[icy zinc]

time to update filter these hives mate

[pulsar dune]

Nah, 1 shots are part of the game

Tho fortress explosions probably aren't supposed to do that

[opal ingot]

aren't you supposed to get an idol when you clear the map

[pulsar dune]

It's trivially easy to make a build that is only threatened by oneshots

[icy zinc]

imagine dying in hives

lo

[crimson hearth]

[icy zinc]

everything tickles

just get better brother

or hit harder

[fair jackal]

unironicly the maven laser malachai is significantly easier than the boss rush preceding it

holy fuck

i wasn't minding the boss swarm in act1

[hard cliff]

What's everyone listening too ?

I got some Wintersun on

[fair jackal]

but repeating it every acts is bs

[stoic horizon]

which album?

[opal ingot]

bonus points if they go ham on the boss itself

[native plaza]

so for the phrecia event, i see there's no atlas tree at all. Are there still voidstones?

[wispy comet]

welp, should have followed a guide and now i'm fucked

[opal ingot]

shockingly they restrained themselves for arakaali

[valid coral]

my build sucks i bearly beats act 1

[hoary scarab]

yes

[fair jackal]

i don't mind that

i kinda like the malachai fight

[modern zinc]

Thinking about making a wander. I've never played a wander before

[fair jackal]

especially considering maven phase3 is one my least favorite part in any boss fight

[modern zinc]

kinetic blast looks cool

[tranquil sedge]

yes.
atlas nodes are replaced with idol system

[modern zinc]

Idols are cool

wish the Idol storage was bigger tho

[hard cliff]

https://youtu.be/ZFfN3G2vjqM?list=RDZFfN3G2vjqM

Randomly started it cause I was looking up Dethklok charecter inspirations

[tranquil sedge]

you can put them in your stash tabs yknow

[modern zinc]

yeah but then they won't work on the maps you open

[opal ingot]

first armor graft

[stoic horizon]

nice, Time I is my fav

[opal ingot]

will i get a juicy six link

[tranquil sedge]

i mean

[hard cliff]

What level of the mines act 4 is the trial on ?

please

[tranquil sedge]

limiting how many idols you can use is a balance point

[modern zinc]

there are no trials there

[stoic horizon]

none

[hard cliff]

hoooly shit

it's go time then

please help me my family is starving to death with all this traveling

That thick skin tho

my precious

[opal ingot]

lmao wtf is that

[tranquil sedge]

man's gotta feed his family
second coming of C Engineer here

[shrewd fiber]

is self cast physical spells viable? leveling with reap and struggling rn

[tranquil sedge]

-# this is c engineer btw https://www.youtube.com/@CEngineer

[fair jackal]

reap is ass, try exsang

[stoic horizon]

they were in keepers, idk how good they are in phrecia

[tranquil sedge]

reap's perfectly doable but its more common to see it as cf/kb+reap or reap+exsang

rather than pure reap early on

[stoic horizon]

reap is miles stronger on bosses but exsang is better on clear, phys dot builds usually use both

[hard cliff]

wth is C Engineer

[tranquil sedge]

^

osrs youtuber
chill guy

[hard cliff]

runescape

very strange

[shrewd fiber]

what is cf and kb? kinetic blast? how do they combo with reap

[tranquil sedge]

i probably complicated it more than i needed to sorry, exsang is the common combo with reap

[stoic horizon]

df is corrupted fever, blast is just used to apply it

[tranquil sedge]

cf is corrupting fever, kb is kinetic blast, used to apply the cf debuff to enemies to make them take damage

cf+kb is a combo used for clear, just like exsanguinate instead here would

if ur just using reap right now and struggling on clear/packs, get exsang going too prob helps

[fair jackal]

corrupting fever and kinetic blast. kinetic blast stacks up corrupting fever on groups, reap is used againts single target

[shrewd fiber]

does exsang need to be leveled up? i have one but its lv6 and im at act 8. should i just raw swap to it or level it for a bit first

what supports should i use with it

[hard cliff]

dude needs a hug

[fair jackal]

absolutely. spells get their damage from levels

exsang is no exception

you need damage over time or spell damage supports. efficacy, swift affliction, etc. chain support is also used for better clear

[hard cliff]

it's not worth your time to go level a gem in act 8

just blast and it'll catch up

[tranquil sedge]

(all skills want to be levelled up in general)

[shrewd fiber]

well clearing is kinda hard in the first place, im not quite at a true roadblock but im kinda struggling rn

[fair jackal]

sure, but lacking a level or two on an attack skill isn't the end of the world

[shrewd fiber]

would it be easier to swap and level with one of teh kinetic attacks instead?

[stoic horizon]

no wand skills by themselves are meh for lvling

[modern zinc]

I would love to play specters but they feel kinda slow

and minions are so squishy while leveling

[stoic horizon]

you lvl with srs anyway

[modern zinc]

yeah I really should

[stoic horizon]

and then absolution

[modern zinc]

I think I'll try again anyway

[modern zinc]

I had a wonderful experience with absolution

but I was annoyed that I had to keep resummoning the dudes

wish they would just clear the map for me

honestly thank you I forgot that skill existed

leveling should be easy then

[valid coral]

my beloved

[hard cliff]

Grattus signet in act 4

don't mind if I do

[pliant hamlet]

why are valdo's boxes 12c lol

[modern zinc]

gambling is fun

[split maple]

12c is ridiculusly cheap for them tho

[wise dawn]

are EU servers still fked?

[bronze falcon]

hes pretty muscular. yeah

[hard cliff]

so muscular and sexy but no phyrecia/gauntlet mods?

[hard cliff]

we should get a frozen legion transfigured variation that's rushing swords guys

It could use your shield and sword daresso bro style

[sleek barn]

lucky mf

[normal hedge]

its actually pretty

wtf

[fervent crescent]

why is crouching tuna's HOAG build all ES body armour shit? Like does he just expect us to somehow get a 5l or 6l early game with 5 off colors lol

[opal ingot]

gz

is for me?

[hard cliff]

I'm going shield throw of Tarthus when I can afford emp vigilance

or chance it

[opal ingot]

bro stop giving me ritual nodes

i want harvest

[pulsar dune]

It's tree league

But off colors are rough, true

[tranquil sedge]

^ tree league
also 4-5 off colors are still not as bad as it sounds if you do the jeweller trick

maybe on day 1 its shit (based on prices) ye but by like day 2-3 its np as jeweler orbs continue to tank in price

[hard cliff]

tree league let's gooooooooooooooo

[icy zinc]

what a shit

rollbacked

[gentle ice]

noooooo

[sharp fulcrum]

please servers i believe in you. i'm in lab

tree moment

[fossil mural]

People already in maps

And I am microdozing click to move

So I dont go insane

[hoary scarab]

lmao i just saw like 50 people suddenly disappear in town

servers monka

[bronze falcon]

They got raptured

[fossil mural]

It was 50 bots

Of the same guy

[bronze falcon]

Botting is pretty lame

[fossil mural]

Damn, there is actually a lot of people playing

[fervent crescent]

i don't think tree league matters with FIVE off colors. that's still ridiculously hard to hit

[bronze falcon]

Jewelers method makes off colors easyu

[gentle ice]

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

[opal ingot]

this arcanist idol doing jackshit

[gentle ice]

server are crashing constantly 😭

[fossil mural]

Its not, you get 4 offcolour for free essentially, and then 5th isnt that expensive with jewellers on average. And 5 link is cheap too

[fair jackal]

Are the servers dying or is it just me?

[hoary scarab]

servers dieing

[fervent crescent]

right, but then you're having to 6L the item. so then the tree league doesn't really matter in that sense

[fossil mural]

Deing

[fair pulsar]

they ddosd your house, garry

get out of there

[split maple]

it does

[bronze falcon]

GGG can't afford RAM 🙁

[fair jackal]

ah fuck

[split maple]

tree gives 6l = 20 fuses + less demand for 6l = less demand for fuses

[hard cliff]

Roooooooooooooooooom

[split maple]

so cheap fuses

[fervent crescent]

i guess for later. I'm mostly asking when he's talking about using an ES base 6L with 5 off colors for early game lol

[fossil mural]

Surely treetree drops a lot of fusings right

[fossil mural]

Early game for him is t15 maps

[fervent crescent]

true lol

[opal ingot]

im not complaining

but why is it always vruun

[fervent crescent]

streamer things

[opal ingot]

where are the other breach bosses

[fair pulsar]

vruun vruun motercycle noises

[opal ingot]

im guessing too low level

[hoary scarab]

there is only vruun

well there is technically tul and esh, but you need hive gland for them

you can tell where alira is on the road too

there is a broken road on the side of alira

[lament hearth]

Boys and gals
What should I run?
It’s my first Phrecia event

[bronze falcon]

Run whatcha like to play i dunno

[gentle ice]

run away 😱

[lament hearth]

[pulsar ice]

What the actual fuck is cruel lab, the guy oneshots me with his regular attack

[gentle ice]

i have fun with elemental hit so far even tho i'm super squishy, died tons of time compared to normal league...

[hoary scarab]

ok someone in global chat just said they got feared as a random area mod

not sure if i should belive it

[bronze falcon]

I got maven and hillock together

[hoary scarab]

thats normal

[bronze falcon]

Dam

I skipped phrecia 1.0

[spice pecan]

best ability in pokemon

[eternal hill]

and here I thought Phrecia was an event

silly me

[grizzled lily]

this event hunbled me

[earnest raven]

Gauntlet mods

[grizzled lily]

mechanically i didnt think i would be so stupid on this game cause wdym i would die so much IN CAMPAIGN

while rushing for maps

brutal if youre playing anything besides slams in HC

[eternal hill]

nah

its missing the monster mods

just gauntlet additional mechanics

[grizzled lily]

yea

act 6 brutus fight

the lasers and

[gentle ice]

the enrage is doing the job too to counterbalance that 🤔

[eternal hill]

in gauntlet those same bosses got haste + aoe + dmg and lmp

[grizzled lily]

enraged

ew its so good

the gauntlet mechanic

[eternal hill]

and life ofc

[grizzled lily]

so hard

[tranquil sedge]

this is not a normal campaign experience

this is a gauntlet type experience

[grizzled lily]

its not blasting

[tranquil sedge]

ur playing on difficult mode lol

[grizzled lily]

its surviving

[gentle ice]

yeah definitely 10x harder than normal

[grizzled lily]

yep

i love it

[tranquil sedge]

normally it is blasting

this is the exception

[eternal hill]

do the random mods only appear in later acts than 3

[bronze falcon]

Its fun tho, good mixup

[grizzled lily]

when i saw the campaign boss i was already preparing to die

like 10 times

cause of enraged minibosses

jumping at me

ele hit surfcaster is good but leveling with cobra lash was such a pain

and i barely had any luck finding 4 links

i found my first one while mapping in act 5

[tranquil sedge]

even at the gold gamble vendor?

those guys crap out links

[grizzled lily]

yep i would get dogshit idk

weak start

[tranquil sedge]

happens

[grizzled lily]

and starting on the right

is so dogshit

youre scaling only dmg no survive there

[civic charm]

I found tons of 4 links. Be sure to get your act 6 think

Link*

[grizzled lily]

gauntlet mechanics just spanking u from left to right

[civic charm]

Yeah it be like that tho. I could imagine how rough on surf caster

My slammer was getting cooked act 1-2

[grizzled lily]

i tried to rush day 1, i would skip 80% of the map

yea bro slams

ur playing normal poe at that point xdd

[civic charm]

If I was playing today I'd be in maps rn for sure

Slams zoom

[grizzled lily]

yep

i mean

slams are so good but

i wanted to have a better lategame character

what do u do after getting your kaoms primacy

like you get your axe

some phys reduction

maybe the warcries helmet

and ur slam build is done

like fully maxed out

[civic charm]

Oh I'm just using slams for leveling

[grizzled lily]

what are u transitioning into

[civic charm]

Tri stat stacker with howa

[spice pecan]

slams are also some of the most boring builds in poe

[azure oar]

when does this phercia start?

[grizzled lily]

no really

[spice pecan]

but yeah i had to use sunder till act 4, snoozefest

[stoic horizon]

been out for 22h

[civic charm]

Yesterday it started

[azure oar]

that's not a friday

[civic charm]

Is indigon on the market yet?

[stoic horizon]

correct

but for them it was

time zones exist

[golden phoenix]

Time zones suck.

[azure oar]

where's phercia rutheless mode

[elfin shale]

This act 1 is fucked up

[stoic horizon]

wheeze

play it and youll understand why not

[civic charm]

If you want ruthless go play phrecia 2.0 hardcore

[grizzled lily]

hard to start at 11 pm on a thursday, good thing that the people i work with are also gamers

or my boss

said im coming 1 hour late

just so i could sleep

[golden phoenix]

Always fun when I ask for time off. They always ask what build I'll be playing.

[grizzled lily]

same my boss is a preist and a player himself

baptizing on the day and blasting on the night

is poe considered a heretic game

[stoic horizon]

i bet bro plays support characters specced into full dmg

[grizzled lily]

he dowsnt have the time to play

[azure oar]

is my game bugged why is maven with hillock?>

[stoic horizon]

heh

[grizzled lily]

theyre together

[stoic horizon]

told you

[grizzled lily]

its some lore

you dont have to worry ab it

[plush fjord]

If I wanted to level w/ animate ranged weapon because I have Envy, what would my links look like? Basically the same as SRS except LMP instead of melee splash?

[spice pecan]

wouldn't you just use envy aura anyway

[dusky void]

whats the easiest way to get 5 green on cloak of flame? corrupt and tainted chroms?

[azure oar]

has there always been 2 hailrake ?

[stoic horizon]

[stoic horizon]

cant wait till you reach brutus

[dusky void]

that surprise was good dont no one spoil it

[plush fjord]

yes, but animate has way more QoL than SRS

[hoary scarab]

its time

for the worst part of poe1

[whole bluff]

FUCK

I sold a 13c jewel for 1c

[keen veldt]

Is campaign finished when you kill kitava or when you get all your skill points from acts?

[whole bluff]

dex + %# mana

dex&str + %# mana

[hoary scarab]

kitava

[elfin shale]

Craft four green, tainted jeweller's til you get a fifth i think

[keen veldt]

ok cool ty

[elfin shale]

i mean you should probably get your skill points

[tardy rampart]

to respec ascendacy i need to run a trial with no ascendancy points???

[golden phoenix]

I bought boots that are currently 100c for 2 div (135c) last night

[elfin shale]

You can just respec after beating it

[tardy rampart]

i dont need to respec points or anything?

[elfin shale]

You do, you can just do that in front of the altar though

[hoary scarab]

how did you get 2div

[stoic horizon]

you must, but you can do that at the end of it

[hoary scarab]

smh GGG client

[golden phoenix]

I liquidated all my various currencies for chaos, then chaos to div, with the currency exchange

[stuck phoenix]

Tainted chroma favours equal distribution. It's terrible for 5 same colour

[stoic horizon]

i got a div already too, in act 5

[hoary scarab]

smh GGG client

[stoic horizon]

i work at ggg now?

[golden phoenix]

Welcome, I guess. Help yourself to the snacks. (for legal reasons this is a joke)

[hoary scarab]

you're a content creator and a GGG employee without knowing now

[stuck phoenix]

I don't think you needed to clarify

[hoary scarab]

damn he is legally not allowed to have snacks?

[native abyss]

[hard cliff]

I got a 5 link I am CRUSHING

[pulsar dune]

Lessgo

[native abyss]

big if true

[hoary scarab]

theres 2 guaranteed 5l in campaign btw

[strong totem]

Truly big

[stoic horizon]

and if you do breach from time to time you can easily get one way before the guaranteed ones anyway

[soft perch]

do i log in again

[hard cliff]

yeah so true

I just bought one with a chaos drop lol

[soft perch]

idk if i want to play more lul

[strong totem]

I'm playing more after 4 days of work

I need to make a hc shaper run too

[soft perch]

i just rly hate enrage its so overtuned

[strong totem]

I swear it has increased effect per life lost

[soft perch]

i mean its just insane in general

its like 60% increased cast speed and 35% increased damage

[strong totem]

True and not wrong

[soft perch]

its rly souring me on the event cuz defence is a scam u need to oneshot bosses

[strong totem]

I'm playing pp brand, so it doesn't really affect me rn

[dire valley]

Oh no

[fossil mural]

Always has been

[dire valley]

Failed to join any instances

[soft perch]

no

[dire valley]

I cant

[fossil mural]

You just didnt have enough corpse removal and clear

[inland vortex]

wtf, did stockholm went dead

I just was pressing tree

[strong totem]

How much evasion do you have rn?

[fossil mural]

Playing stockholm is bait

Russians will ddos it first always

[inland vortex]

It's me sup.

[whole bluff]

stockholm works fine for me

[fossil mural]

I got disconnected

And not working

[desert orbit]

but stockholm gives 19 ms

[fossil mural]

Other eu gates work

[inland vortex]

Tho, I had spikes like 4 horus ago, not that fun on hc. On constant. Pause works thanks god

[split maple]

i am almost considering going back to keepers due to all tradie bullshit in 773 global

[tranquil sedge]

wot happened

and whats 773

[split maple]

like dudes why the fuck do you have to say "i usualyl play ssf just for 3 week even imma gonna go trade" every 5 min

[split maple]

ssf global

[tranquil sedge]

lmfao

no game safe from that

runescape - ironman btw

[strong totem]

Surfcaster freeze when hit is op

[tranquil sedge]

poe - ssf btw

whatever other games - their own thing, btw

[fossil mural]

Why are you in global is the bigger question

[dreamy charm]

ironman btw 2k total lvl <-

[tranquil sedge]

the brain damage is sometimes worth the memes

[fossil mural]

Infernal brel no death btw

[split maple]

this one is pretty mature usually

[strong totem]

What's happening in 773?

[split maple]

well after week2-3 of league

[tranquil sedge]

^

[tranquil sedge]

LOL

https://klipy.com/gifs/fireworks-fast-light

[copper vale]

Dodgable just react faster noob

[full fossil]

what builds are good atm, i got like 40c was levelling elehit but shits way to squishy for my liking

was considering rerolling ancest commander or herald, pbod but idk

[inland vortex]

ggg servers were just fine in Moscow realm, 5ms for me, until gov banned something and this made connection to Moscow server reroute to some asian servers(randomly, mostly during maps) and then back to Moscow or something like this. They end up with eliminating moscow server.

[valid coral]

what fuck am i watching

[hard cliff]

I've beaten so many Touhou games but the movement system in poe just fucks me up lol

[hard cliff]

Act 5 mini boss

[valid coral]

nevermind

[viscid pike]

Bro the tower boss on top of the scepter of God 🤣 🤣 🤣

[stoic horizon]

huh innocence does that?

i just insta phased him

[split maple]

wolves carry my ass so hard i dont see shit of boss mechanics

[viscid pike]

Fuckin Brutus at level 9 was a fuckin trip🤣 🤣 🤣

[split maple]

kinda sadge

[hard cliff]

I need to find a public party

This free Envy makes everyone elses buiilds so much better

[fossil mural]

Spectral wolves?

With the envy?

[viscid pike]

I have just embraced that each mini boss in each act is going to result in multiple deaths

[hard cliff]

I was playing with a Winter Orb in campaign chad earlier and we were crushing it

[split maple]

wildspeaker wolves

just for flat dmg

[hard cliff]

Sorry it wasn't winter orb

[split maple]

like shit is dying

[hard cliff]

it's the cold spell that you fire forward to spit out a bunch of icecicles

what's that

[kindred silo]

eow

[hard cliff]

Yes eye of winter thanks

[strong totem]

Winter eye

[hard cliff]

that was crushing in campaign

[strong totem]

I did rolling magma until act 8ish

Then decided it was time to stop

[stoic horizon]

ayy i run eow too

[strong totem]

And play ball lightning

Then I got pp brand in lab, so..

[hard cliff]

I need a 1 divine shield to swap off cobra lash lol

[strong totem]

What shield

[soft perch]

ok i might swap to kboc surfcaster

[fossil mural]

Game froze on ignited ground in trials

[kindred silo]

wut r u playing rn

[fossil mural]

[soft perch]

fusillade arakaali

its doable but i think getting the lightning to chaos tattoos are a bit unrealistic

[elfin shale]

oh this is scaled with herald buff effect thats why its so good

[mystic flint]

gamers is the league worth playing

[soft perch]

campaign fun

endgame miserable

[mystic flint]

https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1155268898984300614/1158896020663574578/think.gif

explain

[soft perch]

enrage on uniques makes bosses extremely dangerous

enrage + gauntlet mods on pinnacles makes them bullshit

[stoic horizon]

do you like jumpscares?

[whole bluff]

7 deaths by end of act 4, this is getting bad

[stoic horizon]

i had more in just act 1

[mystic flint]

why

[stoic horizon]

i wont spoiler

[whole bluff]

I looked at all the free speed and defence of oshabi, then I looked at my inc dmg, then I looked at wildspeaker and my dexterity

then I went wildspeaker

[soft perch]

@mystic flint can u dodge this during ball phase of exarch

[elfin shale]

lmao when people described it i thought it was gonna be like Maven beam where they're all just side by side

That shit is fucked up

[livid quarry]

good thing i didnt join the leag

[hard cliff]

You goofy goober @livid quarry

[woeful dew]

IDK if its just me but POE1 is crashing non stop

[copper vale]

Just move to the side smh

[copper vale]

What are u doing here then lol

[fossil mural]

Time to spam totems to block meatballs

On every build

[short prairie]

What’s the deal

What’s the build

[soft perch]

Kboc surfcaster

[short prairie]

💀

It’s 2026, still on kboc?

[soft perch]

Yep

[copper vale]

With a temporalis or nah

[hard cliff]

Does the leader of the guild have to clear twilight strand to get to the guild stash and fix it for a new league ?

[livid quarry]

i want to see ur death count

[crimson hearth]

quick question

is far shot better for LA or point blank

[stoic horizon]

we only allow long questions sorry

[hard cliff]

yes

[crimson hearth]

bro what

wich one

[stoic horizon]

la usually doesnt use point blank

[crimson hearth]

ohh

what about maps that are close range tho

[stoic horizon]

you dont make your builds thinking about one map type

[crimson hearth]

ok ig

so the fledgling helm is good?

[hard cliff]

If I can afford one of those impossible escape jewels for iron refelxes I can grab this circle with it and skip the travel here ?

[crimson hearth]

ok

[hard cliff]

I would save one point @crimson hearth

[crimson hearth]

1 point is alot

[tardy rampart]

why surfcaster ele hit claw has no damge? shouldnt it have atleast phys dmg?

[soft perch]

ele hit doesnt do phys damage

[stuck phoenix]

Have you read ele hit

[hard cliff]

the kitva shield

[stoic horizon]

ele hit doesnt care about base dmg of your weapon much

[fossil mural]

You are asking a poe player

Whether has he read anything ingame

[short prairie]

Kitva

this new part of the fight scared the crap out of me lol

[jagged raven]

cant belive i finished the campaign in 1 day omg

[azure oar]

what was so special about him other hten being renamed to kole?

[stoic horizon]

my sweet summer child

you will see

[shrewd rock]

iirc it's based on standard

so they need to fix it in standard

BEFORE the new league starts

[hoary scarab]

keep going

[hard cliff]

thank you

[shrewd rock]

so if it's fucked now you're fucked

find a new guild

[stuck phoenix]

Indeed

[hard cliff]

It's not I was just curious

my guild is chill

[azure oar]

it wasn't that bad

[stoic horizon]

but was it fun

[stoic horizon]

but is it freeze too?

[strong totem]

I still haven't played kboc and I like mana stack.

[hoary scarab]

cool

[stoic horizon]

coool

[hoary scarab]

you called?

[strong totem]

Leeeen

[livid quarry]

is loot during the acts like normal

[hoary scarab]

not quite

[stoic horizon]

until act 7 yes

[hoary scarab]

cause of random area mods

[livid quarry]

[stoic horizon]

you get area mods since lvl 58

[hoary scarab]

man i cant afford my trans gem

despair

[stoic horizon]

thats a curse

[strong totem]

What gem

[stoic horizon]

should have dropped a div in campaign

[split maple]

a5 already, no?

[stoic horizon]

oh then maybe it was 48

didnt pay attention

[hoary scarab]

thats a6

[split maple]

oh yea a6

i cannot count

[hoary scarab]

smh srev

[crimson hearth]

guys im stuck at t13 maps cant go further my survivability is shyt what should i do

[hoary scarab]

quit while behind

[crimson hearth]

because idk what to upgrade i barely hav 2d

[blazing wind]

get anone a fishing rod in grain gate

[strong totem]

You should post your pob

[stoic horizon]

having 2d and not breezing t16s is interetsing

[hard cliff]

mannnn that's insane

post your build on POB

[nimble bay]

Can we get a translator for this?

[stoic horizon]

no clue what they meant by anone but grain gate is used for farming rods cuz it has a group of bunch of uniques

[crimson hearth]

https://pobb.in/-kcY4Xavt37h

[stoic horizon]

and fishing rods drops very rarely when you kill bosses while wearing fairgraves tricone

[crimson hearth]

2d i spent on a helm wich im not even using cuz farshot suks when trying to complete all atlas w voidstones

theyr always in my face how farshot

[blazing wind]

Get anyone a fishing rod in Grain Gate?

[mighty ermine]

may i take ur opinion guys?
Explosive Arrow ballista tottem poeGuy is better

or Fuillside Ballista Paladin of pal is Stronger ?

any experienced ppl in totem may help me to choose or tell me what is better in what ? i would appreciate your help

[strong totem]

Start by clicking two life masteries, then get life rolls on gear, and throw the boots away

[stoic horizon]

i wouldnt take the flat life one

[crimson hearth]

im swapping boots anyways to one with more life move speed spell e res etc but bad luck crafting

also life mastery rly??

[thick goblet]

are you following a build guide? your passive tree doesnt seem optimal

[crimson hearth]

im using fubguns LA guide

[strong totem]

Why. He's at 2k life.

[stoic horizon]

its not worth the point really

[strong totem]

He wants to survive

[crimson hearth]

https://pobb.in/afmi-zhZZ8ZH this one but he uses ele hit of spectrum and tornado shot instead

all work tho

[strong totem]

We also need to get you off purity of elements and on to grace

[crimson hearth]

im using grace just didnt config the pob

[strong totem]

Ok. But notice all the guide pob has +100 life rolls on gear where you have none

[crimson hearth]

tru tru

well

im trying to swap gear but bad rng when crafting

also requirements attribute are annoying

[tranquil sedge]

the life is by far the most noticable thing yea

2.3k is giga low life unless you have like instant off-screen clear levels of dps

or ur suuuuper tanky somehow despite being on such low life

[crimson hearth]

100k lol

[tranquil sedge]

neither of which is true yet for you

so ye more life is a priority

[crimson hearth]

super squishy char

[strong totem]

There's a lot of factors to surviving. You might be running rippy map mods too. Hc players often run magic maps over rare

[crimson hearth]

yeah il try get more life but hm?

[tranquil sedge]

no ye just making sure im not generalizing too much

[crimson hearth]

im running rare corrupted reds to get the atlas points

[tranquil sedge]

what's the reason behind those boots and helm

okay helm is kind of an offence thing i guess but what do those boots do 😮

[crimson hearth]

the helm could be swapped with this

the boots tho im working on it rn

[split maple]

heh didnt notice that yet

[tranquil sedge]

the enchantments on your flask need a bit of work im assuming you just randomly slapped one orb on each or something?

[strong totem]

The only solution to do this without changing anything is to go very slow. Otherwise change DPS flasks for defense

[crimson hearth]

ya lol i didnt know what to do with those

[tranquil sedge]

they should all just be use on full charges tbh that's the generic flask enchant

[crimson hearth]

so crit flask for amethyst maybe?

[tranquil sedge]

and anything like 'gain no charges during effect' is outright no-go

[crimson hearth]

ohhh okey il get new flasks then sure

[strong totem]

Armour first. Amethyst if you roll chaos map mods

[tranquil sedge]

diamond and silver are pretty important for you i think

[crimson hearth]

is the body armour good? or do i swap to darreso's defiance

[tranquil sedge]

can u link the guide ur following

[strong totem]

The body armour is good balance of damage and dps

[crimson hearth]

jade too like 12k ev after use

[stoic horizon]

got this in campaign lmao, i dont even play slams

[tranquil sedge]

ye

the 4th flask, quicksilver, is where u get a bit of freedom, its the one you can most easily replace if needed

even tho movespeed is great, its the one u can do without the most for now

[crimson hearth]

https://pobb.in/bq0nc-i43ZZ0

[hoary scarab]

did you know you can vaal orb mobs

[tranquil sedge]

aight peeking

[crimson hearth]

suree maybe armour flask ig

[tranquil sedge]

it'll not help as much as you're hoping it might on its own

[strong totem]

Needs to just replace all gear with life rolled gear

[tranquil sedge]

yea start with a glove and boot upgrade honestly
and quiver too if you can manage it

get big ass life rolls on all 3

[crimson hearth]

im broke as hell lol but il tru

[strong totem]

Just use breach tree

Or an essence on a base

[tranquil sedge]

if you can get like another 200-400 flat life across those 3 gear pieces that'll go a loong way

[fossil mural]

I know you can regal magic mobs

[strong totem]

Crafted life is a lot better than no life

[crimson hearth]

tru

il try and update kk

[tranquil sedge]

the prefix on your silver flask is not ideal. no reduced effect sir

otherwise ur flasks are actually pretty decent
except the enchants, redo that to use on full ofc

[stuck phoenix]

Just bench enchantment

[tranquil sedge]

yep

[stuck phoenix]

Used when frozen is too insane for me to have assumed it was targeted

[crimson hearth]

should i look for immunity to bleeding frreze etc:? those typa things

[tranquil sedge]

what's with the double 5-link in the bow

do you press vaal RoA for a dps burst or something or is RoA the single target skill

[crimson hearth]

? its 6l

[crimson hearth]

extra skill

[thin leaf]

When is it even worth switching to blind prop on LS, 3rd lab? xd
Surf just feels better early on.

[crimson hearth]

could replace with support

[tranquil sedge]

yea so that's having two 5-links

that's not a 6-link

[stoic horizon]

not could

should

[tranquil sedge]

^ only reason to keep it is if you're doing it deliberately for some reason

otherwise you're losing out on a lot of dps by not using an extra support

[strong totem]

The issue is you can't do both at the same time

[crimson hearth]

no no reason

ima replace with returning proj i have l20

[tranquil sedge]

sure idk the best supports for this just use something good 👍

[crimson hearth]

also when bossing most my dmg comes from ballista totems

il update after i redo allat thxx

[stoic horizon]

thats normal

[tranquil sedge]

your steelskin is linked to lifetap but not a cast-when-damage-taken support

you should probably do that

fuck manually activating guard skills unncessarily

[crimson hearth]

is lifetap not worth it

[stoic horizon]

thats not the problem here

[tranquil sedge]

idc if its on lifetap or not thats up to you

the point is to put it with cwdt so it gets used by itself

[vital lily]

it aint good for slam anyway

[strong totem]

How good are you at pressing steel skin all the time?

[sonic willow]

is sceptre melee or ranged?

[vital lily]

steel skin is useless

never use it

[stoic horizon]

ah right that doesnt count for exerts

[tranquil sedge]

for someone with no armor and no endurance charges its probably the best option he's got lol

[crimson hearth]

used to it actually lol

[strong totem]

The lower the life, the better it is

[vital lily]

you need molten shell

or immortal call

[crimson hearth]

i cant automate anyways cast when dmg taken says need skill gem req lvl 38 or lower

[tranquil sedge]

you should read how molten shell works

[vital lily]

enduring cry regens and give endurance

[tranquil sedge]

and then read the other sentence i wrote above that

[bronze falcon]

you can delevel gems if you need to

[stoic horizon]

both of these are trash if you dont have the things they scale with

[vital lily]

get armor then

[tranquil sedge]

that isn't happening here

[stoic horizon]

on deadeye sure

[crimson hearth]

kinda ruins the concept of steelskin

[vital lily]

reason steel skin is trash is coz it is 1.8k i think

[tranquil sedge]

like ofc steelskin is worse if you can use molten shell nobody is debating that

[vital lily]

and you cannot increase it

[tranquil sedge]

but if that was an option then we wouldn't be discussing how to use steelskin would we?

[crimson hearth]

l20 it tanks 2k dmg l1 maybe 300?

[vital lily]

short duration short effect

[opaque sphinx]

buying uniqs on leaguestart is sadnewsbears

[bronze falcon]

If you can't use it because of level restriction; the concept is already null. 🙂

[opaque sphinx]

[vital lily]

i feel like steel skin is made for 2k hp players who run tier 5 maps tops

[split maple]

slap on a guard graft and it aint so bad again

[tranquil sedge]

if you have no idea what you're talking about maybe its best to say nothing at all

[stoic horizon]

look for non async trades

[tranquil sedge]

in any case @crimson hearth look just put ur steelskin on cwdt or automation and call it a day

i dont know which is better but anything is better than manually pressing it

[wispy comet]

i wonder how much an aul kill is gonna cost

[vital lily]

my core items

[crimson hearth]

kk

[opaque sphinx]

[bronze falcon]

GG

[tranquil sedge]

hey
sir
u da mvp

[tranquil sedge]

i see that grace is in the pob but not enabled

[opaque sphinx]

[tranquil sedge]

are you using haste over grace atm

[heady cliff]

a day and a minute

full atlas (no uniques) and 2 stone

[crimson hearth]

no i use grace and precision @tranquil sedge

[heady cliff]

not bad for baited fishing build

[opaque sphinx]

start of a3 LA tooltip

KEK

[vital lily]

dont you dare mock me i finished 28th challenge not knowing what i do i killed Uber Elder okay and i had no idea what i do

that means my build is op

i do 0 tactics 🙂

[opaque sphinx]

lmao

[split maple]

28th challenge

[tranquil sedge]

and purity of elements right?

[vital lily]

i dislike paying ones or grinding ones

like run 50 000 map mods i got 25k

[crimson hearth]

no i dropped that

[tranquil sedge]

or do you not have the reservation for it

hmmm

[vital lily]

or get lvl 100 i am lvl 98

[split maple]

lass sure do as many challenges as you want but if you brag brag with something worth bragging for

[crimson hearth]

i didnt config my pob sry

[split maple]

and challenges this league arent rly dough burners

[opaque sphinx]

a3 gear is bangin

[vital lily]

game ends at 36

[opaque sphinx]

[tranquil sedge]

purity is where ur supposed to be getting ur ailment immunity from currently which does make u feel pretty tanky
its why fubgooner is using it too

-# and it also helps with resists ofc

[vital lily]

only 1 piece of gear i got remaining to be maxed

last season i was 36

[crimson hearth]

well i dont need the res tho?

[tranquil sedge]

ye is why i chucked it in small letters
lemme see how the reservation comes from

sec

[stoic horizon]

you can think of it the other way, if you use it you can care about it less on gear and get other mods

[crimson hearth]

if i use it and grace i have a total of 50 mana..

[tranquil sedge]

ye sec

[crimson hearth]

tru tru

[hoary scarab]

if its enough for 1 cast, its perfect

[stoic horizon]

ye just get mana leech

[tranquil sedge]

how expensive are silver oils in phrecia rn

currently still $$?

[hoary scarab]

20c or smthing

[tranquil sedge]

thx

[stoic horizon]

thats cheap

but idols ig
