Ye it’s just slow as fuck

leaden quiver
crisp plinth
#

Don't think that's true today

soft perch
#

Whispering ice damage is genuinely ok

#

It’s just rampy and slow

icy zinc
#

self cast whispering ice monka

crisp plinth
#

Yes ok is different than busted

icy zinc
#

i saw while channeling version

soft perch
#

Sure

#

For leaguestart numbers tho it’s not bad

pulsar dune
#

It's self cast single target CWC clear

soft perch
#

Although over time everyone is realising trying to get big damage out of a league starter is pointless

crisp plinth
#

There's also still a storm cap

soft perch
#

Fast and enough and then transitioning into a very good all rounder or a boss oneshotter is better

leaden quiver
#

its got a cubic growth with int its gotta be usable

stable pumice
#

Soo whats up with that ascendency?

leaden quiver
soft perch

elementalist gets to bite the curb next league

#

100%

crisp plinth
#

Iron commander also is usable

#

There's just barely a reason to

icy zinc
#

elementalist with 3 large clusters that rolled primordial bond is too free

leaden quiver
#

iron commander goated

#

replica especially

#

holer moler str stack

crisp plinth
#

Enjoy zero range

leaden quiver
#

isnt arrow nova the fix for that

icy zinc
#

can force it with life reforge

#

harvest

pulsar dune
#

TBH just play normal bow strstack atp, it's like 50% less damage, but also real clear

leaden quiver
#

grafts had proj speed per str :[

crisp plinth
#

Proj speed isn't the issue

icy zinc
#

a bit more common than nothing

crisp plinth
#

Low targeting range is

pulsar dune
leaden quiver
#

normal bow skills suck rn

soft perch
#

Im telling u guys

leaden quiver
#

elehit slayer

soft perch
#

Log in ele hit slayer

leaden quiver
#

beat you to it

pulsar dune
soft perch
#

Can’t be disappointed

#

Max block big damage great clear just pls equip skitterbots

leaden quiver
#

obligatory link

pulsar dune
#

It is tempting

soft perch
#

I think Tuadh is trolling in campaign btw

pulsar dune
#

But I think I'll do my meme PF

soft perch
#

I think skitters are mandatory on low gear

#

Cuz u get the big aoe enabled almost always without hitting first

#

And actually getting ur elements

rocky aspen
#

anybody got a private league I can join for some 2-stone practice runs?

modern zinc
#

I loved playing inquisitor RF
I think i'll make a spectre necromancer before the league ends tho

#

I wanna try it out as well

leaden quiver
#

holy shit is it time for self reverse chill arkhons tools

#

D:

elder marlin
#

how bad is it to chance rathpith and ivory?

gilded lark
#

If genesis tree going core, does that mean fracturing orb will forever be cheap?

Harbingers was already not so profitable, now the nerf is permanent

soft perch
#

I mean u can if u want to ig

elder marlin
hoary scarab
#

add divine shards

soft perch
#

Ele hit also gets an enormous power jump from secrets of suffering

gilded lark
#

From that pov I guess yeah

soft perch
past rain
hoary scarab
dense rock
leaden quiver
#

ig arkhons tools reverse chill is cool

icy zinc
soft perch
#

skitters travel to enemies and their aoe is very low

leaden quiver
#

meat shield fixes that iirc

#

but then ur reserving 10000 mana

soft perch
#

interesting

leaden quiver
#

so its troll

#

ill test rn

soft perch
#

but then u dont get ailments as nicely on enemies for clear

#

i still think arkhons tools is more for trappers/miners

dense rock
#

do you truly need the ailments for every random enemy or just for the tougher ones? 😛

soft perch
#

ele hit gets 80% more aoe when u hit an enemy with the ailment of the chosen damage type

#

so yes

leaden quiver
#

yeah just go skitterbots without arkhons + secrets of suffering

#

less headache

#

then tamings, then yoke

#

and ur good

soft perch
#

yup

dense rock
#

sounds like you should have some better source than skitters then 😛

leaden quiver
#

but they still go towards enemies

dense rock
#

stick closer to you and focus enemies that manage to dmg you over everything else, aint it?

soft perch
#

also ngl

#

i think im gonna spec into keepers breach for next league

#

think keepers is very overhated and fortresses are quite rewarding

modern zinc
#

Is it okay to play necro without using offerings? having to cast them every screen gets a bit old

soft perch
dense rock
tawdry olive
modern zinc
#

ok that's actually a good idea

#

i'll look into that

#

thanks!

leaden quiver
#

i agree hive fortresses are boring though

#

they should be super rare, super rewarding

soft perch
#

they are pretty damn rewarding

leaden quiver
#

from personal experience they were really good with those +magic monsters blight maps

#

with bismuth ore

#

there were loads of magics in there dropping good loot

tawdry olive
#

you're pretty much limited by graft blood and fortresses give a lot of them
then you just print fracturered int stack chest/helmets with provisioning wombgifts that cost 1c

thats only one of the strats, ive heard of jewel printing, foulborn unique printing, lots of different things people were doing

soft perch
#

well graftblood is gone

dense rock
leaden quiver
icy zinc
#

@leaden quiver found a way to get 5% all max res as well have that forbidden 1/1 es

leaden quiver
#

anymore

icy zinc
leaden quiver
tawdry olive
# soft perch well graftblood is gone

the graftblood on your existing grafts is gone, i dont know if graftblood mechanic itself will get shifted to something else, unless i read the announcement wrongly

leaden quiver
#

its ridiculous value if youre using a vaal skill

ocean field
#

being lucky and unlucky during shaper exalt at the same time 🙁

icy zinc
#

belt sacrifice is fine early on

leaden quiver
#

tru tru

crisp obsidian
leaden quiver
#

but dont bank on them being accessible

icy zinc
#

this is 15% spell block if you 75% normal block on paper

#

i keep forgetting and thinking its from your shield

#

like the other one

ocean field
#

I have to hit the 5% Es on block tho

full tide
#

this was on a t14 map

ocean field
#

🙁

icy zinc
full tide
#

so lucky but so unlucky

ocean field
#

Now pain

leaden quiver
#

wonder if overexertion will be hit with a stick

icy zinc
#

that one is +9% block

ocean field
finite quail
modern zinc
ocean field
#

like prefixes cannot be change type shit

I hope they delete all the ways to automate shit on attack builds

civic fern

which one is better for sunder?

leaden quiver
#

crisp obsidian
#

blame GGG

dense rock
#

the trick to play attack builds is to play something like strike builds with every strike hitting like 10 targets around you 😄

icy zinc

#

@soft perch tbh with arkhons on slayer you could do the funny tech with bonechill

icy zinc
#

energy cast on crit

potent bramble
leaden quiver
#

and converting damage taken to cold

#

very wonky trollbuild but

#

you get like 60% reduced ele damage taken without megagimping your build

i'm illiterate

I thought it was +1 to max number of spectres

Anyone else also feeling like theres way more hype buildup for the upcoming league than the last 5 or so. We have few teaseres but the community is very active

tawdry olive

50/50 baby

soft perch
#

ye u could multimod prefixes cant be changed and veiled orb it

1/3 to miss

ocean field

i mean

elder marlin
dense rock
soft perch
#

u can still reforge defence back on but its like

#

1/6 or something?

tawdry olive
soft perch
#

and can brick

#

its unlikely to miss on the veiled orb tho

#

its worth

elder marlin
ocean field
#

Tho where would one even go from here

#

what good suffixes exit??

soft perch
elder marlin
#

literal hell to craft but technically better than 20 qual 1

ocean field
soft perch
#

block prefix is pretty hard to get with good es

#

hey guys, does melee splash help frost blades with single target still?

ocean field
leaden quiver
#

@soft perch how do u even scale it for t17s

elder marlin
ocean field
#

got very lucky

leaden quiver
#

Got a pob or smth?

elder marlin
#

its not that bad, only like 2k essence

soft perch
ocean field
#

what is the best suffix mod at this point

finite quail
ocean field
#

??

soft perch
#

veiled orb time gogo

finite quail
#

Its pretty useless on frost blades

hmm

how to get double damage tho

and if you want melee splash, its on a node on the tree now

#

bottom left of Duelist

#

its called Tribal Fury

#

with it, you can get an attack mastery for +1 strike, too

visual depot

#

I think I mma just craft int or smt

spice pecan
#

oh shit i forgot how ass it is to get the maven witnesses for the remembered

#

cuz i didnt do the challenge the first time smh

tawdry olive
#

call it prismatic strike or smth

spice pecan
soft perch
#

well it was probably added in like

#

1995

#

so it makes sense

#

diablo 1 ass skill

tawdry olive
#

damn i was but a baby

leaden quiver

leaden quiver
#

And people say melee strikes are bad

soft perch
#

ele hit is goated skill man

leaden quiver
#

Xddd

soft perch
#

precise technique + elemental equilbrium for infinite damage early on

dense rock
#

melee strikes are bad. Until you mod them to function as ranged aoe splash 😄

soft perch
#

melee strikes arent bad

#

theyre probably a bit op

icy zinc
#

@leaden quiver forgot joltings can have upto 55% inc dmg as a positive prefix

soft perch
#

additional strikes + splashes gives a lot of shotgunning

icy zinc
#

that being said if you got spiritual aid

fickle glen
#

Yo, why is the duelist so zesty when he uses leaping slam while holding a greatsword?

dense rock
soft perch
#

i guess?

leaden quiver
#

Probably absolution of inspiring was nuts this league

dense rock
#

"yeah my melee attack works great, i just need to use it to snipe enemies across the screen in all directions"

leaden quiver
#

150% inc dmg from a graft

leaden quiver
dense rock
#

you bonk

fickle glen
dense rock
#

not you swing the air and enemies 25m away explode in a gory explosion

leaden quiver
#

Yeah and then youre inherently locked into 0 clear

fickle glen
#

My duelist

leaden quiver
#

Meaning its bad

sleek barn

its still pretty shit

zombies suck

icy zinc
#

puppetto

leaden quiver
#

U just gotta play falling on a saboteur

#

Xd

icy zinc
#

i cant even calculate my absolution dps

#

cause theres like 8 buttons

leaden quiver

Then do it

fickle glen
sleek barn
#

oh yeah hows your vaal absolution doing

icy zinc
#

its decent ye

#

zooming

#

i didnt go hard for the qol of the resummons apart from having 10 casts

sleek barn
icy zinc
#

which is fine for the next 225 seconds

#

4 min-ish

#

should be fine for most maps

sleek barn
#

did you get minion duration on grafts

icy zinc
#

nop, the only minion duration prefix is on a ash

tawdry olive
#

templar is probably responsible for the fact that POE characters cannot equip pants

icy zinc
#

very unfortunate

tawdry olive
#

he had a hand in it, i just know this

icy zinc
#

these are my grafts

ocean field
#

I am back guys

icy zinc
#

great avalanche bug does 4% brittle btw

ocean field
#

parents called to have lunch

leaden quiver
#

Im sold on the ele hit starter

#

If tapped, time to go witch poison maniona

sleek barn
#

but you did say duration is fine in maps so its chill

icy zinc
#

yeah its alright

ocean field
#

can essence be used at the end or only at the start

icy zinc
#

theres enduring bond near witch which is 44% minion duration

ocean field
#

??

icy zinc
#

but you're spending 1/12 of all your passive points on it then

leaden quiver
icy zinc
#

i thought of it

leaden quiver
#

44% minion dura which doesnt add to the soul gain prevention

#

And 20% skill dura which adds to the prevention

icy zinc
#

enduring bond has skill effect on it

#

righ

#

u righ

leaden quiver
#

Yeah but 100/80 < 164/100

icy zinc
#

tbh if i wanted competitive dps id go doryani prototype

#

you can easily push the uber killer dps

sleek barn
#

pain in terms of cost

leaden quiver
#

But its so pita

#

:(

sleek barn
#

but minions is already pain

leaden quiver
icy zinc
#

yeah you need ideal watcher eye and exarch shield

leaden quiver
#

Mega autopilot

sleek barn
#

just getting your clusters is fucked

leaden quiver
#

And divine flesh

icy zinc
#

i rolled vicious bite on large clusters for 100k harvest juice

#

and its always in the back

#

which minion combo makes crit in front?

uneven gust
#

12 passive 35% isn't too hard TBF

#

Enrolled until you get 25% and then you hit reforge on bench similar modifiers till it hits 35

leaden quiver
#

Renewal, vicious bite, skeletal

sleek barn
leaden quiver
#

@icy zinc

whole bluff
#

I wish they'd just allow players more efficient ways to make strikes clear well based on strike range and splash. Then you could use the mechanics inherent to vigilant strike, dual strike of ambidex, mamba (let's just accept mamba is cis dual strike), dom blow of inspiring, even though they have no free AoE or proj effect to clear, without having to spend 20 passives to make up for that

uneven gust
sleek barn
#

i don't think they want to reward "non-true" melee builds

tranquil sedge
whole bluff
sleek barn
#

yeah but they probably want it to be

#

part of the vision

whole bluff
#

Wish they'd stop wasting dev resources baiting people

tranquil sedge
whole bluff
uneven gust
sleek barn
#

poo2 melee is probably closer to true melee

tranquil sedge
#

and trying to make poe1 into a backwards ass clone of poe2

whole bluff
#

They could be catering to people who should actually ne playing soul calibur

fossil mural
finite quail
#

it has an attack cooldown of like one second between each strike you deal to it

uneven gust
#

All I'm saying is if they're announcing phericia Gauntlet is replacing ruthless I'm going to be happy

icy zinc
#

0 results

sleek barn
#

ruthless is staying

#

bc theres no reason for it to be removed

#

theres still the 10 enjoyers out there

fossil mural
whole bluff
#

I don't know if strikes without proj or AoE tag are made cuz Jonathan wants to play soul calibur or some players want to play soul calibur, but either way it's kinda clear it doesn't really do well in poe1

he can get more free time if ruthless is removed

Lord forbid people play with two buttons

icy zinc

#

And generally ggg have made a point and they want skills to do different things

uneven gust
#

For some people Lord forbid they even play with one button oh my God

#

Oh my God this build has half of a button oh my God this is stupid this this build sucks F tier build

tranquil sedge
icy zinc
#

pob updated

#

kinetic fusillade 69 fixes

tranquil sedge
#

and u can safely ignore their opinion

icy zinc
#

smh it will get nerfed!

spice pecan
#

to be fair you eventually get to a point where your character is so fast that pressing 2 buttons is like... kind of suboptimal

#

at least a lot of builds get that way

#

but yeah

tranquil sedge
#

no builds start that way

tranquil sedge
#

and if ur doing enough dps with enough that u dont even need a movement skill

sleek barn
#

i press many buttons to exercise my fingers

tranquil sedge
#

i think ur not the target audience for the guide

uneven gust
#

It comes down to by the time the player realizes the situation activates the skill they could have just killed them with two activations of their main skill

sleek barn
#

i see no problem

tranquil sedge
#

i mean the people complaining about buttons

#

aren't the people who'll surpass using buttons

#

unless they play a shit dps build like rf or some actual no button build like coc/cwc cyclone or something

So how do you think portal Scrolls and ID Scrolls work.

I think you pull the string and it just like pops like a party cracker

#

And then the Spells cast

ocean field
crisp obsidian
#

Essenes ignore them completely

ocean field
#

welp

#

then no spell critical strike I guess

tawdry olive
#

yea there's a couple of gotchas like that, always emulate on CoE first

ocean field
#

so one of the aspects

#

hmm

tawdry olive
#

rule of thumb is "does this sound like its too strong?"
then it probably doesn't work kek

sleek barn
crisp obsidian
#

Lots of strong crafts work

uneven gust
#

No you like can.... when you're crafting it you spam Essence then you met a mod benchcraft then harvest reforge and all pray and go with two crafted mods which needs three affixes empty

i have not had the time

Well ggg I have you seen alot of people say we want the old breach

sleek barn

likely true

tawdry olive

uhhh

i have no idea

at high juice levels most people interacted with old breach by running around popping 10 of them at once and clearing 3.5 screens away at 360 degrees

so like, i guess its those peeps who would be most worried

about the new unstable breach

If I add “50% more bleed damage” mods will it cancel out the penalty for this keystone?

You telling me the 50% less makes the new value the base value?

tranquil sedge

these are multipliers

what was kalandra mechanic again

tranquil sedge

1 * 0.5 * 1.5 is the same as 1 * 1.5 * 0.5

#

the order doesn't matter

#

more first less second or other way around

#

same outcome

#

50% more does not balance 50% less coz they multiply

stoic horizon

you need 100% more to counter 50% less

No no you’re all wrong

If the game calculates by 1 to begin with it resets it back to 1 with inverted values

stoic horizon

but 50% less and 50% more are not same values

tranquil sedge
#

i was going to reply to zemor saying there's always a chance maybe we missed something

but if that's your logic, yea we didn't miss anything

#

please go use pob to answer your questions next time then i mean

#

like its easy to go look at the dps

#

go type 50% more damage and find out for yourself

stoic horizon
#

more multipliers are not additive to eachother

tranquil sedge
#

then you wouldn't have to have this discussion either lol you'd have the answer immediately

you're probably messing up increased and more, 50% increased and 50% reduced cancels out, more and less are a differnt thing

I don't think I agree with your first point, b/c the expectation would be that Phrecia runs in addition to the base, so it's really only the people who get into it that swap. More like a private league that's open to the public

Your second point is a good one for sure though, they wouldn't want to increase the competition between the games, especially when PoE2 is still in beta and thus reliant on a regular playerbase for consistent feedback

tranquil sedge
#

now ur splitting the playerbase in a game that is entirely balanced around trade economy

#

well

#

thats what i get for not reading

#

private league works yes ignore that

True, but how many people are still playing a lot after 2 months? I know I tend to drift after like 3-5 weeks for most leagues

tranquil sedge
# fickle glen All I can find online is Reddit chats saying the same thing

i dont know what you expect us to say other than that is literally just how poe was designed and how multiplication in math works

the result of this is that

  • 'less' damage modifiers are actually meaningful
  • and also 'more' damage modifiers are not useless

and if you still have doubts just go put the numbers in pob and it will tell you the same thing.

That is how more and less work. They go off the final value, after increased/reduced. Maybe thats where the confusion lies?

if that was the case you would deal 1/10000 of your current dmg

That's just the difference between the 2 i fear ^^

More and less are very powerfull

the appeal of "more" multiplier is the multiplicative aspect

if u take a 50% less dmg node anywhere in poe, it doesnt matter how much else u got going u will deal 50% less dmg

i have never used a more multiplier akin to poe's more multiplier in development but its an interesting thing to have

@tranquil sedge
Tbh I get why he is confused. He assumed the more damage part part is a separate scaler which is pegged at 1 and more or less modifiers are additive to each other just like increases and reductions and only the final result is applied. Like say u have 40% more and 30%, then you would have 40-30 = 10% more is his calculation, which of course is not the case since u would have 100 x 1.40 x 0.70 = 98

A lot of them are designed with an initial node in mind with some downside.
Behemoth nodes would be completely busted for example.
Herald without having auras disabled.
Imagine Careless that just gives 2 extra proj without needing to path to it.
They'd have to completely neuter half of the ascendancies.
