kinetic blast merc still very scary to face
Whole lotta "not interacted with" in those statistics posted. Glad I'm not the only one.. lol.
I have this annoying thing with steam where the game validates files every time i need to launch, any way to fix this?
there is no update, what is happening man...
Can I have multiple of the same type of mercenary?
Or does hiring a cruel mistress block out all other cruel mistresses from appearing?
can triple attribute mercs wear anything?
Any gear suggestions for this merc?
wanting to pick up a new build, does anyone know how the energy blade inquis is?
i see captainlance has a video on it and dont want to be baited 
Which mod is that?
but hmm, seems like a cool build. Kind of torn between that and a smite build. Whether it be slayer or trickster idk.
got a mageblood and like 100d or so to start off with 
Remove 5% of Mana es life on hit. You reserve 99% of your life, so you just die.
ahh right yeah makes sense 😂
this one looks funny, probably not strong enough to use but def funny
weird to post about the extremely rare stats about the Merc items...
kinda sad majority of these GG uniques comes from gambling rather than doing the content
i never understood the key drops. fuck that system honestly
Now you know that you have astronomically low chances of getting good shit from merc so you can skip them with calm mind
does mana degen affect a merc ability to use their skills?
is it normal to have not found any t2 unique with over 5 million kills
Is steelskin ally borked and he Dosen't use it on ally or is it just a self effect for the Merc and worded terribly.
Don’t use steam lol… the stand alone client is better in every way. It’s faster to load/update patch and there’s no bloat
in t17, is box or abyss the better strat?
anyone know why my mageblood is not being listing in the trade site for life half an hour already?
Its tab is public along with other items I usually sell
@random inleti cant even see you as offline.
it's weird, I was able to sell other items fine, just this one, I been restarting app, changing area for 30min now
wait I cannot edit an existing regex? that's bad
not muted at all, yeah same price
dnd?
I saw one in global having issue with the sorting. it seems like it's not being sorted in the right price
if you tell me your account name i can check if i can see anything youre selling
what happens if u try and recruit a merc when u have 3?
does it replace an existing one
can u tell which gets replaced and do u get the gear back
no u dont get gear back
Gotta say, diversity is kinda nice this league
or replace one of the other 2
ok i'll head back to base i guess
and since i'm heading back to base i might as well dismiss right there
then go back into the map to hire
what's the scarab setup for t17 abyss? 1x abyss 1x edifice 3x risk or 2x abyss 1x edifice 2x risk?
Hey y'all. My friend gave me their BAMA bow cause they're done with the league, but I have 0 idea how to price this. Anyone with Trade knowledge and bow knowledge can help me out?
2 abyss 1 edifice then 2 other scarabs of your choice
2 risk if you can survive the insanity or 2 multitude/1 escalation,1 multitude if you want to sustain maps on your own
I did 3 risk, then 2 risk, but honestly can't really tell the loot difference
i found it
grats
thank you king
strongbox vs abyss for t17?
Hello guys, where can i find someone who could help me clear t17 map
so that i can unlock 6th slot
anyone have suggestions for really juiced content my champ armour stacker can do
power wise i can borderline do decently juiced rogue exiles but its pretty sketchy atm so i dont want to go crazy with rogues for now (as in huge vessels)
i knew it, im like the only one playing shadow lol
Anyone know what this does?
Containment should be fine
Are you running a gold flask or other MF gear? Are these T16, 8 mod corrupted maps or just rare?
Rarity and quantity does not affect harbinger loot
I thought it affected obelisk drops but not the rest
Quant and rarity will help you by global drops from harb summoned monsters
they dont do anything for shards
not from harbs not from obelisks
I've just set up a harbinger + beyond tree, farming T16 toxic sewer and run a few maps and the clicking is already getting old 😆 I wish the small stacks would just combine with each other to make much fewer but larger stacks
last day my mapperd did 1 map and got kidnapped, login after night and now i see that they again got kidnapped after 2 more maps
Either new or tired players not paying attention :D
BTW, GGG is not usually nerfing stuff mid-league, right? At least as long as it works as it should - even if potentially overlooked by the designers?
I am asking because I am about to start putting together a Mana character abusing the new infinite mana runegraft.
Would be a shame if all that effort was wasted next patch.
it has the spell tag so maybe
Is there any benefit for map mod effect when doing destructive play?
If running destructive play on conqueror maps yeah, since it raises quant, making conqueror exalts more likely
not really if running other maps
well I plan to run all of them
wondering what other mechanic to pick along the way. Alva maybe?
double boss increases chances of more inhabited maps
essences
anything that is fast, since with destructive play you want to do maps as fast as possible to profit
like if you aint doing 4 maps + invite in 5-6 minutes you have a problem
you don't even need map mods for essences
I dont think I can do 7 essence guardians, not yet
One of the essence notables transfers a random essence to boss
While I understand the sentiment, I am not aiming for super sweat efficiency, only a thing to do and make money while doing destructive play
if you buy some remnants of corruption you can make a lot of currency
otherwise shrines and kalguur
Hmm. So, no map mods effect, probably still need the +1 tier for more T17 drops? Or is that a myth?
so why try making dp slower? majority of profit you get from boss frags, maven drops, conflicts and maven writs + invite juice. Anything that slows you on way to that is harming your moneymaking
Im not saying "make it slow", trying to evaluate options here. On speed/profit ratio.
So, let's say we're doing essences. Map mod effect is not very useful, the tier 1 higher mods are probably useless as well. Maybe scarab drop chance? We're killing a few uniques after all
neither the mines nor the detonate open chest
ah I have to cast the detonate myself
if i wanna play Vaal Smite of Divine Judgement Trickster,in character select i need to choose shadow ye?
shadow becomes trickster, yes
thanks
Hello is there a guide to show how to add mercenary buffs to pob?
😮 nice I've finally killed Maven without dying and I was helping another player get his voidstone
you can add another new skill group and add stuff like auras, I have zealotry,temp chains and despair
then you can do
in config , Custom Modifiers
like this
Hello, anyone know why when I kill the captain in the settlers it look like there is a unique drop beams but they are not in the ground and the beams disapear after few seconds and i got only rares from him and this happen all the time?
sounds like your filter is blocking it, hold alt
No is not the filter i have disabled it , but nothing happen. It look like few uniques drops and the beams are gone after 1-2 secounds its very strange , and im not sure if its a bug or it is intentional by the game to look like good loot are dropped.
Anyone knows the difference between wild and non-wild rogue exiles? Are the rogue exiles added by map device option and Anarchy scarab not wild?
Thinking of starting a Forbidden Rite Trickster anyone playing that or knows how it compares to Occultist (budget/scaling/tankiness etc)?
wahts different bewteen low tier 5 ways and high one
im looking for most sturdy doryani merc setup you guys have... i have no idea howp to make them tanky enoughđ
if your rich
give them defiance of destiny and have both negative lightning res have minimum 20% damage recouped as life
and then stack armour on the rest of their gear
and make sure rest of res is capped
they wont ever die realistically
fubgun i think made a short guide on it
can't believe I rerolled for bossing and now I discover my leaguestarter is able to farm rogue exiles
I can even slot in a titanic scarab, wow
I'm leaguestarting totems every league now, insane
they scaled so well
Anyone know of a good Loot Filter for BAMA or have solid advice for a LF?
I never played the build before and play HC so I don't want to lose my 1Div gem and waste time and stuff
TY
I put southbound on my merc and she has no flat cold damage and is a wander, why is she freezing??
- nvm southbound adds cold damage lol
Can monsters summoned by harbingers be used to summon beyond monsters? And what about monsters from other mechanics (blight, legion, breach)?
yes to harbinger, yes to breach, I don't know about blight or legion
breach+beyond is used to level up fast
the mobs don't drop shit but give exp
Can someone help me? Which mercenary can equip both Kingmaker (2H axe) and doryani's prototype chestplate? KB guy cant....
Of course kb guy can't
He wouldn't be able to use his kb
Because kb requires a wand
Mercenaries, or Mercenaries of Trarthus, are unique enemies that can be encountered in an area during the Mercenaries league. Only one Mercenary can spawn in a given area.
i haven't found a single merc that can kingmaker + doryani chest
get a pure str one https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1u1y8x-gexn9FmH-PXN77aUMkpnBPBawcnhLFsQ11xJE/edit?gid=0#gid=0 "For Mercenaries with a single Attribute, any Armour gear that requires that Attribute is valid. (e.g. a Strength Mercenary can equip only equipment requiring Strength, Strength + Dexterity, or Strength + Intelligence)"
hmm Kingmaker is Str, Dex , doryani is str,int , their weapon type they can use is set
earthshaker and eruptor
I think 89 memory strands are worth a lot, right?
ah normal quality
the one on sale is 10 divines
chance orb 6 mods then split 30 divs
how can i add my mercs auras to pob
What build would you guys mage if you have 10 divs ?
that's barely a budget, usually 10d is what you expect to have the day after leaguestart
I would improve my build
I had 0 , started with holy relic of conviction by balormage , playing it for the first time , it's amazing , it's good for ubers too with investment , I'm at 200
, great for farming T16-16.5 - T17 , I don't even check the mods
you can add more than the auras , to add auras you do a new group in skills , name it merc stuff and you add the auras,curses if the merc has any
I am playing that VFos , but I hate it , and now I want to start something now
noew*
I am thinking of making a Bama character , but I don;t really want to lvl a Templar... I might just go for the Necro one
Maybe go for a double kb merc and reroll support
yeah VFos was one of the builds I was thinking starting, poison srs and holy relic by balormage and skele mages were the others, poison srs was my first Maven kill in 2023, a lot of ppl were talking about holy relic or conviction and I've started with it , I've farmed about 450
with it, super fun build for me
I've even killed Maven without dying while doing a Maven carry , first time not dying to Maven ❤️
Do you have a guide for it ?
For support ?
This Holy Relic Necromancer build will smoothly take you from Twilight Strand to Uber bosses in PoE Secrets of the Atlas 3.26
No , for the Holy relic one .
Ahh
Thank yo
balormage has a league start video too
I wanted to play holy relic at league start but it looked a bit too complicated , But I will try it
isnt this too long for a name? 
I have about 5 void maps , I should just do 1 before the next league instead of deleting my character with gear on 😄
was just gonna sell some stuff and buy my first mageblood and then i get a mirror from maprunners! haha love this league. my first mirror ever 🙂
almost 3 weeks after update fuckass game
how do you get dex on the holy relic ?
Anyone know how to config lucky dmg in pob
You've tried other server locations right? Not trying to be annoying just tryna help. I know servers have been rough.
I had a 30 dex node for a while and some dex on my gear , later you get elegant hubris caspiro , with supreme ostenation , ignore attribute req, you won't need any dex,int,str ,took me a while to find a good one
mind over matter node with 80% minion dmg can be expensive 20-50 div , I've found a different node
run exp servis?
I managed to make the Holi relic work .. i just need a quick respec now and it's all good... for under 2 divs ...
Hm. If you put a stygian vise to a merc, will it get the benefits from socketed abyss jewels as well?
why the heck is the new Memory Boss Gold Flask so expensive when the buffs dont even stack?
Does extreme archaeology still work with Righteous Fire?
Does anyone have a link to a toxicology merc build guide? I’m pretty dumb about DoT and chaos in particular.
Hey is there a global channel for people offering mercenaries? im looking for a sniper but i cant seem to get it
i think i read it somewhere that you can, maybe im confusing it with challenges and people offering compeltion when they found the merc
i mean i think you can invite someone to ur map when you encounter them
but i doubt anyone will stop and post an offer if its just a sniper
hey guys quick question what would you guys recommend to farm for currency as a Lacerate build?
kinda like bestiary. apply bleed, run to next beast, shout "EINHAR THROW THE NET ALREADY" from two screens away
think lacerate can do anything except maybe blight
Can anyone suggest any decent other merc items I'm missing? (Cold variant no doryani cheesE)
or am I just after zealotry effect at this point?
may look at a garb of the ephemeral but those are pretty pricy
Has anyone optimized a aspect of the spider + grace merc?
Suprisingly i never hear anyone talking about aspect
Im guessing otherstuff just overshadows it too much
More spell damage and spell crit is hard to match =p
curse on hit gloves / rare boots that drop brittle or sapped ground
perquils is better than shaper's seed imo
second divine merc of the league, hopefully i don't die this time xd
omfg
almost had her too
I'm actually kinda curious how mercs work with other players anyway
if I fight a merc and die
but it's someone else's attempt
does my death make the merc leave?
Phys-> Cold build so damage range is quite flat. Massive life drain from reap, so I think the seed is just comfier. IIRC Perq is only a couple % more damage for my setup.
Curse on hit gloves is an alright idea
though I'll need to give her another +1 curse ring lol
either way crafted/bought rare gloves ought to be much better
What's an ideal Merc for Ele EA ballista? ATM I'm using a KB with haste aura and inspiring
i hired a merc, she is in the town, but she doesnt join me where i need her? i have duelled her, invited her.
but i dnt find her in my zone
If a merc died in an instance you don't get to use any merc in that instance
yes but i have moved to teh next zone
my merc did die, i then finished that zone, went to town, picked my latest merc and returned to the new zone
You can't say return and new
oh i mean...i found this merc in my zone, i duelled her and hired her. then i went on with my old merc who died. i finished that zone, went to the next, used the waypoint to town
so in town, i invite her. and then waypoint back to zone...
cant see her. i can see the icon that shows her as my current mer
hi @sonic stirrup btw
Hello
So i did CoC inq last league and now i want to just do my fav strat wich is ritual, but i dont want to repeat the same build.
So i need something with good damage and survivability.
I tried VfoS but its too slow for clearing. I take alot of time clearing one ritual with good mods.
So what build should i try? Sell me your build
What do you want to play
welp, there goes my luck for the rest of the league
I've played holy relic. Not slow. Not the fastest. Tanky ish. Was good in t16s last I played. Kinda fun and different
Anyone try EK Ignite elementalist recently?
Anyone know a good ritual guide for 3.26
im doing this challenge tonight, if anyone wants me to slam their gear with my currency just @me no fee or anything just slamming and jamming
urgh those achievements seem like a pain
How am I going to sustain ES as a trickster using Energy Blade + Spectral Throw of Trarthus ?
Its a trap so things like leech, ES on kill etc etc don't work
is it LITERALLY only Evasion, ES regen, Suppress cap and Ghosts Notable ?
ES recovery on supress is fairly effective in combat, past that yeah, regen.
oh yeah theres a mastery for es gain on suppress or something
i also just learned about wicked ward notable. ill see about that in the endgame
attempting my own build :S
okidok ty
I'm guessing Garb is can't be equipped becasue it is outside lvl req (70% of 83 is 58, garb req is 56)?
howcome? str+int
since its from explicit mod
ffs....
savant robe is int item ye
thank you
Anyone have a good end game MERC build for physical/melee?
Need some ideas on how to further improve this armour stacking Merc. It's ok, but he just doesn't attack enough, unlike the Kineticist. Maybe it's just the case of getting the Infamous version?
I've been hunting for a Snaking Merc but haven't found one wiht good links yet
I think ideally, I want to find an Eruptor with 'Flame Link' at least
why bismuth suddenly lag so hard after the patch
my map is unplayable now if i trigger them, each click takes 5 second to register
can you guys suggest an atlass build for map sustain before hitting 90 or 100 points in atlass tree?
destructive play + influenced map chance
you can also take the points for originator maps
I am doing betrayal to level up at the same time
Thank you
betrayal and essences actually
skip those
go straight for maven, conqueror maps, originator maps, elder/shaper maps and synth maps
farm a bunch of those
Thanks again mate
Isn't it better to kill a decent amount of stuff, to get more boss spawns?
yeah obviously fully clear the map, but destructive play doesn't scale with mobs killed but with how close to 0 mobs remaining you are
the only real scaling is with domination scarab of terrors, which adds more bosses to the map, but they don't get witnessed, they only add droppable maps
So a linear map would be good. Maybe sth like silo?
Do you think it's still a good currency making strategy, or is it to late into the league to start it?
silo is actually one of the most popular destructive play maps
as you can just kill the bonus bosses and keep main boss alive to be able to run it over and over again
it's a bit late but it's literally scarab free, you get conqueror maps which can drop conqueror exalted orbs and get invitations
the feared has 1/500 to drop a mirror
even if you don't drop a mirror, you can drop valuable gems
Hmm, ok so maybe I should look for sth else to try.
I kinda struggle to get a decent strategy with my char going.
Maybe someone has an idea what would work well for a smite slayer.
giga
so if you want the easiest, fastest and rippiest gains you just go kalguur heist, then farm heist
What buffs does the infamous Merc have over the normal one?
if you want to stay in maps, non-awoken harvest is really good
I made 40 divs in a day with crop rotation
if you love the trading system and having to manage 6000 pings at one time, inviting a dude and getting declined because someone else invited them before you, go bestiary
Do you have a guide on harvest? Haven't done it yet (still pretty new)
Welcome Exiles! 🌌
In this video, I showcase the full breakdown of my 100-map farming strategy using Harvest combined with Eater of Worlds Altars in Path of Exile 3.26. If you're looking for a high-profit, low-risk way to make serious currency, this strategy is absolutely worth your time.
This guide covers everything — from initial investme...
very cheap version, it's still good
the expensive version is 1 awoken scarab
not worth it imho
too much variance
1d per map and if you're unlucky you lose it
with this it's like 20c per map
guys im fighting incarnation of dread, i finished the collect 2 rose
but instead of continue to next phase
it asked me to collect another red rose, and doesnt spawn it
anyone have same issue?
this ring is an insane amount of dps for me (and it's a low roll)
I have to try to fix my resistances to use it
i want to play jungroans forbidden rite but he has no leveling part in his POB. Could someone recommend me a leveling guide for occultist?
can anyone suggest me a cheap build that aint league starter that don't freakin use 5 keys to function? I'm freakin very disappointed with the builds I've played right now, always dies 😦
Probably a YT or a text guide that I can follow?
EA totem elementalist, 2 buttons
anyone can confirm that void manip still works with srs and infamous glove mod (convert 100% fire to chaos)? some time ago I was experiencing lower dmg when I started using void manip, so I'm still running with other support - and since then I see only questions if void manip removes the fire dmg before conversion
- I wasn't poison capped back then, could that be why I was seeing my dmg lower than expected with void manip?
I know in pob it does increase dmg, and I see nothing about it in changelogs and patch notes
Im trying to progress is maps but there to difficult is there a decent way to farm currency to upgrade my gear for the higher tier maps?
heist
Heist is free currency, and if you are fast they are also comparable to other low-end endgame farms or better
Depending on your luck, grand heists have some valuable uniques and bases such as helix and focused
hi guys, how would i know which map gives atlas point and which dont? im missing some points and would like just straight up buying from the poe trade
Does anybody know if our (players) magic find affects the gear rolls on mercenaries we encounter in zones?
Is Ritual still good ? (long time no play)
every map gives a an atlas point when you complete the bonus objective, or just complete the map in case of unique maps
any mechanic is good if you focus on it properly
ok i play ssf this is why i question and i search good atlas notes for it but i think here play 99% normal ? ^^
never was a ssf player, can't answer that
ok thx. 🙂
(also my general atlas tree start is "just pick whatever i feel like doing this league")
okay thanks
In ssf I would refrain from ritual unless I needed something specific from it (light of meaning) or found it way fun
It's not very good for gearing up
Get used to respeccing your atlas trees a lot in ssf
yes i try this and i dont know Ritual is still good in sff but i think its the best for good loot or ? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZJxICMRdsAc&t=216s&ab_channel=MAGEFIST its from last session but i think it still work ? ^^

Magefist is good, but don't plan on getting svalinn anytime soon
Ritual is more for jackpot fishing - like mirror shards (but you don't need them in ssf), fancy corrupts and synths, corpses if you are into that, audiences with the King (nameless rituals not ritual in general)
And it's not really reliable for anything
In ssf you Will want to Focus early on mechanics that let you obtain/craft passable gear for 4 voids and hitting t17
T17 enables you to get non-trivial quantity of scarbs
And then you can farm other content
(I wouldn't leaguestart flicker in ssf imho)
I think expedition and harvest are the best ssf mechanics , it’s always what I go for first after atlas progression. They feel mandatory
bro didnt even take the 4 link boots smh
would you say farming harbingers is worth it? I tried it out recently in T16 maps with 3 scarabs, map craft and all harbinger atlas passives and after about 10 maps i'm barely breaking even. No fracturing shards, just chaos shards and a bit of ancient shards
three garbo maps though
harbs really want their scarbs
no point running with half of them only
and ye, its click heavy and barely profitable strat unless you run enough maps that you consider fracs common
if the scarabs are too expensive to run and break a profit then don't run it
sell the scarabs
strategies that are always breaking a profit this patch are abyss and rogue exiles
abyss is also kinda easy
ambush breaks even most times
you can also just open the hoards yourself
it's not that tedious and it's a dopamine hit
i was using scarabs though, all except the one that duplicates curency since I still have only 4 slots.
no, just no
that means you missing 2 scarbs
i think ill just stick with blight
bro doesn't have a mouse
If i have to click more than two things per map it's not a strat for me
expedition, essences, betrayal and harvest are not strats for bro
also, what exactly is so profitable on abyss? Just the jewels and vises?
if you run a t16.5 map, the hoards inherit the quant of the map
including the scarabs and currency quants
ergo you get loads of scarabs and currency and maps
harvest is passable since at least all loot is close together, betrayal annoys me, other two are pain agreed
like if you need scarabs even by opening the hoards manually you get a lot of mileage
or you can play it unethically, clear the map and then with 16 regrets you get caster mastery + any spell, loot all hoards and respec again
you are still breaking even
it's that good
or you pay someone to loot for you
mercenary hacking
When you poof your Unrequited Love with harvest gamba 
Literally my first Eater kill this league and i get a fobidden flame worth 70 divines
i guess i won't have to worry about how profitable my farming strategy is anymore XD
can regular mercs have "infamous" items ?
no only infamous mercs
hey guys about coiling whisper, if my curse duration is 0 second because i have too much reduced, would the ring still works ?
No.
damn ty
What was the mercenary that no one found yet?
When the love do be unrequited.
So what are the best Kirac missions to roll for?
The harvest beasts ones is good but none others seem so great?
Map completion
Does HH work on mercenary ?
I mean the Kirac missions which gave good rewards my completion is done
the reports are selling good in bulk which means there must be profitable stuff there
6 mod abyss jewel from the beyond one i guess 
Hmm dont think I've seen that one
its something about abyss already being opened.
i found it in standard, should be in league aswell
Guys what do I put on my keneticist Merc for my vfos build ?
What do you want to do with him
I got perma knock back on my merc keneticist
She has inspiring cry
Items are dirt cheap not even over 30c last time i checked
But im playing aurabot merc
if you have 2 merc in town, 1 with you - what happens when you click reserve? are you able to replace a merc in town or does it replace the one with you?
u take the new one and the old one goes into reserve
and with 3, u can chose who goes away
thank you - didn't want to lose my current one but replace one in town
do mobs changed by the allflame ember of toads grant normal exp?
apparently yes
they do not drop jackshit though
what's up with smite of divine judgement price?
hmm , 4
from ships , nice
about 90% of the time I get at least 1 div
😄 5k wheat,blue zanthimum,50k dust, 230k value to kalguur
I've even discarded 1 div by mistake , I was thinking about the mappers
Didn't some guy make a build guide for it
Lul
welp, that's what happens when i can't read XD
can anyone think of good boots to use? (gloves are ele weakness on hit)
I'm using the stampede boots with anoint
for what build?
for the challenge equipped elites, does it have to be the same influence on all pieces? or any influence?
Is breach profitable as a farming strat if i have a flicker strike build? or is it better for me to farm things like harbringer?
Is there another build I could transition into from BAMA? Open to ideas and suggestions.
any build from the same class
Guys I can't take it any more Ive ran 100+ white maps gotten from 94 to 95.5 and i have not seen ONE kineticist , let alone a good one like wtf is going on
you mean white tier map ?
yes
no
I mean normal t16s
yep.. i dont think im doing something wrong.. keep killing all of them exiling annoying ones
ive seen like 10 sanguimancers
0 kineticists
im paying for the insane rng ive gotten this season..
are boats faster to get back if you have all level 5 ships?
how would you recommend leveling a witch nowadays?, i dont have access to dex stacking and all that
armagedden brand is pretty fast. to get to 28 i usually just use spark and do a small respec to arma brand at 28
is it decent enough to level even into maps?, dont think i can swap to my build until 80 ish
idk why it wouldnt be. what ascendancy are you planning on playing?
yes it is, i ran it until i had collected all i wanted for bama. so like halfway into yellow maps
alright sweet!
i was NOT tanky, but everything except bosses died of 1-2 dmg ticks
hello can anyone help me what am i missing?? im 114/115 and cant see what im mising
wat scarabs are good for ulti farm?
another extremely nice belt
anyone else finding that div card farming for porcupine is really slow or is there a good way to farm cards in hcssf anymore?
Is there any realistic way to get caster mastery (for opening chests) onto my VFoS Zerker?
Do merc skills and have quality?
trying to find a way to farm new orbs in ssf. any ideas?
have a question: I already have a Split Helical Ring in my stash just waiting for me to use it, and I just dropped a fresh Helical. Is there any reason for me to keep a 2nd split version ? I only plan on using 1 ring for stat stacking, but unsure if i would need a 2nd.
split then sell?
was ambush hit with a shadow nerf or something 4 containments in a row without a single good drop
cant even join milan and drankfurt on 1000ms sick
Getting Nada out of 4 maps sounds inside normal variance to me
Tho make sure you rolled your maps profitable enough
run 40 map and the sample will make more sens
still low but not as low as 4
any tips on making my manaman build able to do risk scarabs?
or it is better i go make a 2nd build for it...
Why am I even trying mercenaries league in HC ? 🙂
One shoted by a lvl 72 chaos merc, I was 89 with 59 chaos res, 6K+ life
Some leagues are definitively not for HC.
I thought mercenaries would be more balanced after a while to give a shot, after all the patches.
Any recomb expert?
Item Class: Gloves
Rarity: Magic
Minions convert 100% of Fire Damage to Chaos Damage
I have this 1p item. How can I 100% keep the prefix, combinging to another glove (DEX or DEX/INT)? What prefix/suffix should I add?
If i use asenath gentle touch on my mercs and the explosions occur , is there any loot lost coz of that as in does the map quantity apply to stuff killed by mercs and their explosion
Guys, first time sending 17 mil shipment. What is the best port? Riben fell or Ngakanu?
doesn't really matter since your primary thing is the mirror shard gamble
I like doing ngakanu for the extra tats but w/e
Does it still matter if the ports are asking for specific crops, as in does it still give a bonus to rewards or can you send crops of whatever kind regardless of what the ports ask for and still have a chance to get a mirror shard?
afaik up to what they ask it gives x1.3 value
but I think sirgog covers it in the 3.26 shipping video
Ah nice, forgot to check him out, thanks!
it can't (the skill is repeating, you aren't using the skill again)
do you guys open valdos? i was opening them when i started but since i dont really know all unique and its too long to price check i started just selling them
only open if you enjoy the gamble
this is the farthest i've gotten in poe after many years of playing. now i've gotta watch over my back with maps lmao, how is THAT a map affix lmao
surely theres a warning before clicking the portal?
there is
if I have a merc like this, can I add any gem to the last slot? I want to know before I hire this merc 😄
im pretty sure you cannot modifier their skills at all. just their items
Ah shame
5c card tinging
Update your filter
Anyone know what the best type of Merc I should go with for an occ arakaali build? Currently have striker with determ, vitality and enduring cry
This league is so boring... Maybe next league GGG will give us something worth a 12 month wait
I have Neversink uber strict updated daily and it's still overvalues certain div cards. Not new behaviour, happened every league I played
Yeah I moved to uber plus because he makes his filter tiering to accommodate ssf players
I just modify it a little to show some stuff I value
have fun upgrading cards
anyways
my build has 2 upgrades now
- New ring - 300ish div probably
- power charge impl
oh nevermind
the ring is
FOUR MIRRORS
and it is sold by a scammer
there is a different one that is 105d and is perfect
soo guys does it work when i have an merc and an ag and each has 1 additional curse
do i then still have the ability to mark aka 3rd curse or should thatt be done on 1 source allone?
When a curse is applied, it checks the curse limit of whoever applied it against the number of curses on the target
Not how it works
You need one entity with 2 additional curses and you probably don't want to have 3 different entities cursing
It's perfectly fine to have one entity with no additional curses curse and one other entity with +2 additional curses apply two curses
so waht are some good ranger builds besides kinetic blast
When it's just two entities cursing, the highest limit is the one that matters, though I don't think you can apply more of your own curses than your own limit to a given target, but you can't overwrite a curse if you have no extra but the other entity cursing has enough for both your curse and all of theirs
Ah, interesting, ty.
playing a cws chieftan any merc set ups good for defense?
lol double valdo drop
i find it funny how the only mods that really brick my build
are meteors and cores
because there is so much shit going on
lol
rolled perfect fracture
T1 48 is max roll
How come Hands of phrecia override Ichimonji?
If i read the items right Ichimonji disables allies auras from affecting you but when I link to someone with hands of phrecia they still apply
Either GGG overlooked Ichimonji and it's a bug, or Ichimonji's definition of 'aura buffs' is 'buffs that apply through an area of effect', which Phrecia avoids by applying buffs directly.
That's what I'm feeling too
Would be interesting to check if an Ichimonji wielder can also apply buffs to allies that way.
It does work correctly when I take the gloves off but the moment I put them on and link it "breaks"
Easy to test
We've seen a similar bug get fixed last league (Phrecia ignoring Arrogance's downside). This is probably a lot less abusive though, so I doubt it'll be a high priority.
Can report it with the /bug command real quick if you feel like it.
Made a post on the bugreport forum
Also, would the /bug command even be helpful for them? there's nothing instance specific wrong here.
would this be bait to put on a merc? I don't see it in the equipment strategies section of the wiki so I don't know if its been tested or not.
should work I think
assuming the merc deals enough damage for a significant chill
(chilled ground and other non-hit chills won't work though)
oh yeah, it needs to be a hit-based chill 
so the question is: how to get a merc to reliably get a strong enough hit-based chill. and if I can do it without requiring a strong bow, I can use widowhail in the bow slot.
i use it on my toxicologist with an icefang orbit to increase my poison dmg
its only 10% increased dmg taken, but better than any othwr quiver
icefang makes sense, but what about
but giving up a ring slot means it'll be harder to make your mercs curse enemies 
Can I change the gems from my merc?

you only need 1 ring for 3 curses
any idea of the price of this all positive mods reflecting mist ring I just dropped ?
wdym? one anathema? or one ring with three curse on hits?
just anathemas
is someone free to help me with a t17 strongbox map? I cant seem to clear cause mobs have block chance
i just rerolled a character so i didnt know i couclnt run that mod
im pretty broke from all the rerollin so i could use some help :<
mods
Any elemental bow or caster? Im wonder which merc you play and as tank/dmg dealer/aura bot
Anyone here playing Mage skeletons? Thinking about doing that for a second build not sure if six Divine is enough to get it off the ground
(Enemies chilled by poison aren't chilled by a hit)
there is definitly a difference tho, so there must be something going on
A difference in what?
in my dps
You're noticing 10% inc damage taken on a chaos build? That's saying you can eyeball your damage precisely enough to tell the difference between having 15 and 16.6 stacks of Withered. o.o
i was using it before i got a reliable way to wither stack and it definitly made a difference
Maybe your merc is simply chilling with cold damage? Icefang definitely doesn't apply Ahuana's inc damage taken stat. If it did, Golden Rule would be able to apply it to yourself for reverse chill.
so wiki is wrong on that?
also my merc has very little cold dmg, so i doubt its from that
could ofc be possible
what level should i swap to fross?
No, all of that is accurate. (I wrote it.)
Issue is that a chill inflicted by poison isn't a chill inflicted by a hit, which Ahuana (and Call of the Void) requires.
Icefang can apply chill-also-does-this stats that don't require a Hit just fine, like Bonechill.
the only cold dmg sources my merc does have is a t8 flat roll on the bow and the cold dmg from the ahuanas itself
might ofc just be placebo, now i dont notice it anymore cause im already dot capped against pretty much anything
Could be enough - doesn't take much for a minimum chill. If the hit inflicts a 5% chill and you also get a 10% chill from icefang, you'd still get 10% inc damage taken.
Probably not on big bosses, but dunno your scaling
so the chill effect overrides after a chill from a hit is applied?
Kind of - two chills would exist, the smaller one would tell the enemy yo, include your chill effect in your damage taken calculation, and the other gives the enemy its chill effect (the action speed reduction)
If you apply a 5% chill with a hit, applying Ahuana's, and then your elementalist friend slaps a 40% chill on the enemy, it'd take 40% inc damage.
(or the other way around, order doesn't matter)
any key items people are running on mercs for ES zerker?
others been constantly disconnecting today on aus servers?
random question - how many map modifiers does one usually avoid for 8mod maps? I got 6 and having trouble finding sellers with inventory...
Any heist runners in here?
I'd like to tag along in a blueprint run just to get my equipment slot (and id like a garbo amulet thingy too)
I'd trade 1 div for your trouble and a blueprint too if I have one you'd like
be careful when a shrine is in radius of a merc and you click it.
yep dc every 5-10 minutes just afking in hideout
yea same and even when im connected its cooked lag
im getting stacked slowly lol..
holy RMT? thats a weird stash
I’ve been pretty happy with the haste/grace sniper
@tropic sky i just got that sniper a couple days ago, been great for me
……so…..
Yeah his haste has to be up there
I’m zooming through the maps with him
Is it worth using vaal orbs on T16.5 maps, given it can reroll the map and cause it to lose valuable bonuses such as "% more currency"?
so just got my second atlas tree and trying to decided if i should go blight or abyss im vfos just not sure which to do to farm
any suggestions
i feel like abyss is better for going all in: T16.5/17 maps, multiple scarabs, etc., while blight is better while still climbing through atlas. Also, abyss farming requires you to have a pretty strong character to begin with
yeah blight in maps is forgiving just know how to play and stand back
which should be easy with vfos
Blight also needs a little bit of investment with the Rings but I don't think it's expensive
has anyone had a memory tear spawn on an originator map?
For Fallen Reverend mercs, only talking about their skills, what kind of support gems or specific skills am I looking for on it?
Course Wrath Aura + Battlemages Cry, but aside from those, if I wanted to look for a better version?
o ty
have a look see what looks good
fallen reverends won't attack enough to apply ele weakness with gloves, will they?
It'd be pretty hard to calculate which is better for me tbh
compared to a cruel mistress
exsang mines sso it's wrath vs envy and I sshould sscale wrath's damage way better
(big ele pen and sscorch and sstuff)
but the reverend can't wear the damage buff hat
and probably won't attack enough to apply ele weakness
or have staff... I guess should just sstick with mistress
guys any suggestions for a caster build for abyss budge 1000d?
hmm I wanted to get Mageblood and Progenesis but yesterday I've killed all ubers for the first time, even uber Maven that I was so scared of , I might even spend 300 div on boss invitation 😄
whats the regex to look for originator maps in map stash tab
How do I get my Merc's aspect of the spider into POB? I've tried writing this into cust config but it does nothing:
Enemies take 15% increased damage
search for memo
Just add a 'nearby' to that
I don't think this is enough to kill an uber, right?
(already set uber as enemy so it is 75% less damage)
oh yeah I need bottled faith
still only 7M dps
another guy beat uber shaper at 8M dps so it's not like I'm doing that much worse
I've been crashing to desktop every 2-4maps today. Anyone having the same issue? I have gotten a grand total of 3 crashes over the >100h played this league before today
I've given up on playing on my pc without streaming - kept crashing at leaguestart, it never did before. Got myself nvidia geforce now
it even crashes that sometimes
someone tell elon to stop ddosing the servers
sometimes my mamba poison doesn't want to proliferate even to close enemies, though I'm running master toxicist and there's no poison avoid mod 
bruh. apparently pausing right when a flask ends breaks the "reused at the end" enchant and it stops being used. so annoying
there's a chance it won't pause if you open a fullscreen menu like passives, atlas and others
havent had that one happen yet
i knew i should have played it safe and bought an omen but i didnt think id need it because of a bug 😢
do expansion mechanics get nerfed in the following leagues? Are they considered to be part of the league mechanics for the current league, then get nerfed in loot/juice subsequently?
this is my first expansion so idk about this stuff
If mechanics go core at all, they're usually reworked a little, which usually does end up nerfing power/profitability. It's just how the game functions: new mechanics need to be powerful (even before people acquire the knowledge to optimize them), and that power needs to be removed so the next league can offer that power instead.
Hmm, am I stuffing up Destructive Play somehow? I go into Silo > clear up to boss room and enter > damage boss until he goes invuln > kill extra bosses and leave.
my maven witness count isn't going up.. but it should be right?
no
maven witness goes up when you kill final boss
you do that strat only for the loot
ahhh okay, I misunderstood it then, thank you for clarifying'
I haven't done too much mapping, but ive gotten two trathus skill gems. What's y'alls opinion on them and are there chase trathus gems?
From what I've seen, the Trathus gems have been kinda underwhelming. Interesting, and deff a cool concept to explore, but not impactful enough to justify the hunt to find them vs just normal gems or transfigured gems
That said, even by adding the creators I watch and such, I'm still pulling from an extremely small sample size - so don't take my opinion as any sort of global truth
if it was to me, then not RMT, just dropped mirror recently..
https://poe.ninja/economy/mercenaries/skill-gems?name=trarth&level=20&quality=20&corrupted=No none of them seem to be super sought after.
I thought I would play like 3-5 characters this league but I'm still on my first , I'm playing holy relic of conviction by balormage for the first time , it's too fun , I'm at over 200 divs into it and I wanted to buy a mageblood and progenesis but I might just buy a lot of uber bosses with my 300 div left
Minions convert 100% of Fire Damage to Chaos Damage is great https://poedb.tw/us/Infamous_Modifiers
do you need to be crit capped w/o ambush with mambas?
I meant the expansion, secrets of the atlas
not the mercs
are 16.5 maps going to be nerfed?
16.5 technically are nerfed ,they changed them to fix a bug
"Fixed a bug where the 8 Modifier Corruption outcome on Originator Influenced Maps resulted in all Map Modifiers being Tier 17 Map Modifiers (rather than a mixture of Tier 16 and Tier 17)."
I meant originator maps at all, they feel insane right now
yeah I was talking about the originator maps
like a memory influenced t16 abyss feels like a shopping mall while not being harder than breach
they were even better before the bug fix/nerf
yeah I know I still have some
I cannot run them with my build
I can probably sell them for 5d each
defeated uber shaper, though not as much comfort as I hoped I had
does stormshroud prevent poison and bleeds?
they are not elemental
freeze is elemental yes
Modifiers to Chance to Avoid being Shocked apply to all Elemental Ailments , Ignite, chill, freeze, shock, scorch, brittle, and sap are referred to as elemental ailments https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Ailment
Ailments are a type of debuff associated and applied by one or more damage types. Ailments normally distinguish themselves from other debuffs by being applied by hits, which allows them to check conditions on the enemy, and vary their effect or duration based on damage instead of having a predetermined value from a skill or modifier.
Frozen, ign...
doesn't prevent petrify, which is not an ailment
petrify does the same exact thing as freeze, even builds up like chill, but it's not an ailment
it exists to punish you
specifically
Has anyone found a kineticist with power siphon? I want it for the cull but it seems rare on top of kineticists being rare
Can mercenaries get rage?
Hey, does anyone have any info, tierlists, or whatever on what atlas strategies are currently profitable and which ones are trash? I haven't played for past 2 leagues so I am way behind on what has changed since
can someone help me kill with incandescent invitation?
server ?
singapore
hmm I did help a player on the singapore gateway and I didn't have crazy lag from EU . I'm FloRyu in game
which one is better for u? japan or singapore
not sure , singapore was fine for me
yeah , FloRyu in game
can anyone help undertand why dying so much, the map mods seem to have no synergy but it's really rippy for whatever erason (I have 15k life)
The one that Okayed having a merc with Vaal Glacial Hammer deserv to be fired...
that crit strike chance is crazy high ,-33% res ,134% phys as chaos , if you're not chaos res cap that's bad news , are you crit immune ?
do you have crit avoidance?
I wouldn't do that map without crit avoidance, and -33% res means I wouldn't do it if I don't offscreen half of the map in one hit
Anyone know if replica HH is bugged on Mercs? Tried on a low level Merc and it seems he's not getting anything. I know replica isn't the best but I had one laying around from heisting
How feasible would it be to craft a pair of gloves like this one with a budget of 10-15 divs?
Not exactly like it ofc but as close as possible with the limited budget
Projectile speed doesn’t matter as much as the other affix
hey guys my wife is having an issue with her mercenaries, we just got to act 4... she can't use her previous act mercenary in act 4 and the one she hired in act 4 can't use in act 3...is this normal?
Betrayal Transportation
hmm only thing that comes to mind is "You cannot have a Mercenary accompany you if you are 20+ levels lower than the Mercenary"
😮 nice found Progenesis , I need it for my build , I'm still super bad vs Maven 😄 ,takes me almost all the portals
not the issue... since she is lvl 42 and the mercenary is 26.. also doesn't account for the fact she can't use her merc from lvl 4 in previous acts
did the merc died in that zone ?
if the merc dies in a zone/map you revive it and it will join the next zone/map
again... 2 issues... lvl 4 merc cant be used in act 3...
but she can be used in act 4
previous act merc can be used in previous act but not on act 4
what build next as 2nd char if u suggest? very noob player here... went for balista build as league starter..
when are they having a stash tab sale again
I went ballista and cleared everything but ubers, made freeze reap mines trickster and it's much better against bosses
Are you able to hire a merc from someone elses map?
If you can, can someone @ me if they find a wrath + zealotry merc
i been searching for over 9 hours now im going insane
you still need a lot of skill vs ubers but he gets a lot of comfort from cheaply scaleable mine damage from tree and energy shield regen on suppress from trickster ascendancy
I'm playing for the first time holy relic of conviction by balormage and I love it , I'm like 280 divs into the build, killed all ubers for the first time too, found Progenesis from uber maven
holy relic of conviction seems insane, I hate minions though
even though it acts more like a spell enhancer than a minion
for me uber Maven and Sirus were the hardest , but not really that hard , I'm just bad at the last phase on the memory game and I don't do well with the puddles
anyone from SG Server ? any lag issues ?
found 3 starfalls this league and got 2 shields
I did found it twice but no Svalinn I bought it for 83 divs at the start of week 2
Svalinn and Progenesis are my most expensive items , found Progenesis a few hours ago after killing Uber Maven 5 times
my most expensive is 1.3kp dps axe 80d and collecting for a mirror now
svalinn sure sped up the process
over 12 hours in total now... im not sane exile
i found one during early campaign which was hillarious but not one in any t16 yet yippee
can harbingers and beyond be farmed at yellow maps?
hmm I'm farming harbingers with beyond and deli in T16.5 - T17 , not sure how good it is yellow maps
whats the easiest way to get 4 green sockets on an armorbase still voricicalc?
have the thing 6l allready
probably the crafting bench trick
Once I learned this trick, I just had to share for people getting into Path of Exile, and don't really know what to do, or how to get the right colors easier! So, in this video I wanted to show you how you can use the Crafting Bench to adjust the colors of the sockets of your gear in Path of Exile!
Hope this helps!
#pathofexile #guide #sockets...
is there some benefit from rolling eldritch invitations apart from trash loot?
they don't seem to increase the rarity /quantity of exclusive uniques to me
Additional drops(Affected by map quant) like Forbidden Flesh , found a good one about 2 weeks ago and sold it for 40 div
I'm rolling 80%+ it only drops trash
rng ,yeah a lot of bad loot
I wouldn't complain if scours didn't cost as much as chaos orbs tbh
I had so many , sold like 3k
the nerfing of sanctum and its consequences have been a disaster to the human race
I have to switch to the mapping setup and go back to mapping it seems
this league has been pretty good for me , probably the most I've made , I'm at like 280 div into my build and 450 div in my stash overall , just bought a mageblood
jesus man
holy relic of conviction is insane
ive only made like 80div in total lol
idk how much I'm worth, I invested everything into my characters immediately
yo anyone wanna do a duo or something bigger group play bored of solo we start from scratch or use already earned currency if anyone would like to join drop a dm
😄 I'm still getting destroyed in T17 and T16 with harby,beyond ,deli , they are so strong my relics keep dying so is my AG and merc
I think this is the nicest thing I own, crafted myself for like 10d or so
I ladder recombed the fractured base with a non fractured isolated +1 all spell first try which was insanely lucky
-.- i mean i allready 6l the thing and all and am wearing it rn with another configration soo yeah im mjust asking ifi i can avaoid relinkin
check with vorici calc
Is legion+harvest any good or should I respec to legion+boxes
hon the topic how dies the 1-3 white socklet omen work is it like chosing rng which upto 3 wil get converted?
I'm doing strongboxes+ scarabs and all the explicit modifiers
yeah rng
I did get all 3 white on my sword
so i could endup with the last 3 as white?
it rerolls all and it's random
or is it choosing the first 1-3
its not corrupting right?
well it could do upto3 right
nice
I'm currently levelling a witch but i'm a bit torn on which spell to go for: i'm deciding between glacial cascade, lightning conduit and forbidden rite. Which one of these would you say is the best?
anyone of you has a pale angle to share as spectre ?
Is there a way to know the exact levels of skills of a mercenary? I want to put it into PoB.
whelp this happened while gathering the feared
not very good rolls
very disappointing feared
took approx 16 hours.... but i finally.. finally... FINALLLLY FOUND ONE..
Lucky
Still can't find a swiftblade with the combo I want
So lets say 150d budget, controller friendly build that can handle everthing, anyone have a suggestion? its the "controller friendly" part i cant really decide on
I wouldnt say aiming by itself is needed, but like... void sphere kinda sucks, things that you have to actively target arent great on controller.
Some totem/miner prolly
not very lucky i prob did over 200-300 maps i never want to suffer through ts again
i was speedrunning the maps and typically jsut going to merc > quitting map > repeat ;/
wouldn't RF be the simplest
I guess but can RF really do everything i've always stalled out near the endgame
if by everything you mean t17 multiple risk scarab dont give af about mods ez modeing probably not without motherloadiion of investment
if by everything u mean all pinnacles, some t17 and most t16.5 yes
what happens when i give my merc an item that links? will they link to me or.. do i need to run a gem that links.. im not familar with link mechanics
anyone know whats worth crafting for selling?
Any idea what's the Striker MTX? The name of it
Whatever the content creators are using is generally a good plan... RF gear (Pohx's website has the details), Empyrion is building out an Int stacker, I'm not sure what Ziz is doing, Ghazzy is (I assume) doing a summoner... Ultimately it's more just "make good gear", and defining what makes it good gear is... harder
Rings with good resistances is probably the most straightforward appraoch
Explosive Arrow on ballista would be a good thing to look at? I've been running one as an Elementalist and while I'm super squishy, it's 100% because I haven't bothered to cap resists yet. Half my gear is still leveling gear - apparently you're supposed to have more than 33% lightning res in yellow maps?
tried to buy 4 flask mageblood from this guy slizaringuy14#0194 and he swapped it for 2 flask is there anything i can do other than just reporting him in game?
Pretty sure it's just reporting him in-game, unless you happened to have found him on the TFT discord - but even then, idk if there's anything substantial that can be done
how are alts worth more chaos than alts?
what
i meant to say why are orbs of alteration worth more chaos than orbs of alchemy

ppl alt spam
nobody alc spam
aka because recombs exist
otherwise they're going to be like 30+ to a chaos etc.
only for flask spam and sad aug+regal crafting
Feel so dumb
Sold all of my gear on prev char
despairge through campaign to maps
paid for boost to 90
bought and crafted all gear for eviscerate ignite elementalist cus it looked cool
can't figure out all day why damage so low on single target
eviscerate isn't auto casted on block, its activated on block... aka still need to manually press it
true
anyone can share kinetic merc budget build with chaos orb?
why its extra info inside ()?
It's like shako
It rolls in batches of 3 per base roll drop, bout had a pool of 12 total(every minion batch)
Phantasams with the flat phys sceptre and wolves with craft seem real interesting for kbc exsang mines and ps mines, bout golems might be simply better
oh - thx
Black cane + phantasm monarch on with less curse duration and soul eater ring seems interesting
Bf of tartar sauce/bv/ps mines
Actally triggerbot bladeblast sabbo might be funny with that
I love crafting
What stats do I need on my BODY armour for VFOS ?
thanks.. whose pob u following? mind share?\
ill look that up... damn that expensive.. how many div u think should have before going for it?
Cheif or jugg?
I like yolo crafting with spammables
Like pneumatic dagger+lightning essence
Flasks and alts
does %increased effect of zealotry works on merc?
if she have it on her weapon
0 for me , started with it , got my holy relic by farming merc lab , got it to the first brakepoint of 14% and kept farming
the most expensive items in my build are Svalinn and the falsk that Maven dropped me Progenesis that's 170 div there
for mapping I go exsanguinate and headhunter
I also bought some gloves with the infamous suffix "skills used by mines and traps chain 2 additional times" and oriath's end to help with clearing
hello ,im doing a vortex of projection hiro, and may i ask you how should i build my merc?
Hi, Does anyone know why I can't get my favoured map to drop? Ive run 3 maps this morning in which ~70 maps have dropped and not a single one of my favoured map. I have all slots unlocked plus all 4 voidstones socketed. Im currently running Mesa and have Dunes T2 (Ithat's the only tier Dunes on my atlas) as my favoured.
put the keystone that gives you 200% increased chance of favoured drop and no non favourite maps cannot drop
I added that keystone, ran 3 more maps and not a single map dropped. I don't know what im doing wrong.
you aren't using the shadow shaping keystone as well, i assume?
typo
No, I'm not using that one.
Hey is there a crafting advice channel for poe1?
#1┃crafting-advice it's a bit unintuitively named, so no wonder you missed it
For some reason, it doesn’t show up for me lol but anyways, thank you
It's in the help channels you muted and collapsed
Where to find gold rotas aside TFT?
Oh lmao, my bad
why is my merc dying more than me
Is some merc expert here? My merc sometimes doesnt use skills for 1-2 seocnds... Is it because the merc is oom?
its cos low IQ
i have older sniper merc with phys pen on skills, i guess its just better than new one would be with +5ilvls?
4-5 uber shaper kills, only echoes of creation drops
I'm becoming progressively better and faster at doing it
that's the only good news
also the fragments are really cheap
thats how it works generally
the only scary thing is the slam because of the visual clutter
often you have one of the copies telegraphing it while you have two lasers on screen
do zealotry affect kinetic blast?
cant you just test it?
buy level 1 aura run it with wand and skill and see?
My guess - no, cos of crown of eyes doesnt anymore.
yeaaa you are correct, it dont work
but the conc ground part does
would you mind sharing your sniper merc gear?
or someone who could give some advise how to set up a sniper merc (the one with haste/grace)
i have mine like this, no grace tho.
didnt bother anything more interesting
this one not super endgame as you can see, but she pumps good enough
zealotry gives more spell dmg, wand skills and generally spell dmg conversions only apply to increased
Anyone have tips for fun builds that abuse doryani merc? Something for 100-200 div, preferrably with some fun self-crafting things
is there a good way of farming bladefall of trarthus for ssf? is there a zone in campaign I could just reset for it or something?
got everything else I need for the soul eater setup except bladefall now
Can't you not get trarthran gems in acts
Double negatives go brr
Well, even if you can, if you're overleveled you won't see any mercs in the first place
rip
back into the toxic sewers I go then
I also dunno if gems are more likely with higher rating, but I'd wager they are
Is there a endgane pob or a good guide for flicker strike? I cant seem to find anything, I have a good budget for it
Not sure if those gems can even appear in campaign
What do people usually pair with grove or boxes on a atlas tree? Or is it purely just the one?
Hence the double negative
I'm using the fubgun strongbox atlas https://poeplanner.com/a/n1t , strongbox and scrarabs
anyone know how good int stacking is for risk strats? Can it run all map mods or does it brick to ES mods?
How to find a specific merc? Im looking for a blade caster with both aspect of the spider AND grace. I found one but he was missing grace. Do mercs have random.abilitoes each time you encounter them? So just walk away and hope to see him again?
i heard someone say warpriest is a good mecenary, for single damage, is that true? my build need single target damage, so if i can get a mercenary that does that job good, i would be happy 🙂
check https://poedb.tw/us/Mercenaries you want a Bladecaster , I think the top 2 abilites are set and rest are random , get rid of other types of mercenaries and you will have a better % to get the one you want
PoEDB provides things come out each league, as well as items, uniques, skills and passives. Path of Exile Wiki editing functions.
So I know the benifit of having a billion mechanics is that you can choose which ones you wanna do. What do I miss if I just ignore heist becuase its boring as hell?
Literally nothing. This is a game, play the mechanics you want to
That is exactly why the atlas has nodes to turn off what you don't enjoy
Sweet
guys does anybody know if rarity culler is bugged or smth ? like we juice maps we are doing group play farming rogue exiles and literally nothing drops we see like 3 belts per map maybe with 6-7 exiles blood vessels, our culler is like 1k rarity
Is your rarity culler actually in range of what you killing?
it's really hard to stay motivated to play thjis game as a new player when I get one shotted in most maps in a split second
If your in Merc league i can give ya some help, you might be missing something from your build
I've just reached maps following the lightning conduit zizaran build and I'm just cruising until suddenly im dead
it's getting boring
I got some decent gear from trade but I'm still missing some pieces yeah
Send me a dm,
Guys, what do you recommend, Progenesis or Wine of the Prophet Flask?
I am playing Forbidden Rite Occultist
depends on what you want, prophet flask is like headhunter, giving you random buffs and progenesis gives you better survival
I'm using progenesis for the first time ever and it's great , it dropped on my 5th uber maven kill yesterday
nah not really, its quite rare to see gem on low, im not sure even if its possible in campaign but in maps i saw like 3 of them and im level 87 right now and never skip merk
I didn't think I would say this but to improve my comfort at uber shaper I need more damage
his damage is insane anyway might as well kill him before too many projectiles are on screen
Is there a break point to achieve this more often ? (i think i sent a 2 or 3 mil shipment)
The breakpoint is 17 mil
fuck
Can someone tell me, why i only encounter with a path to the courtyard of wasting?
I did many Tears in total and all of them lead to coutyard.
for the challenge i need 4 times the other ones but idk what i am supposed to do.
Am i just that unlucky of never seeing the other paths?
Or am i doing something wrong?
I also dont understand the atlas bc the bosses are not in the acutal memory threads so what am i blocking if i skill one of the 3 nodes?
what boss drops is decided at the start of the thread
ah okay so that has nothing to do with the path to Courtyard of Wasting, Chambers of Impurity ot Theatre of Lies
it does, each one always drops a certain boss
theatre of lies is always dread, courtyard is negligence i think and chambers is rage
so if i block this one i have lesser chance of courtyard?
Anyone know if the trarthus mods can spawn on any ilevel?
if i remembered correctly that neglect is courtyard then yes, the info should be on the wiki
thank you so much
anyone that can tell me how im supposed to fight the yellow harvest boss? it just stands there invulnarble and stares at me
anyone have any issues with essences making their drops just disappear? Had 2 essences die in this map and did not drop anything. It's not my filter (alt shows nothing) and one was a hysteria. Two things it could be maybe? Some weird interaction with culling strike, or the node that cursed monsters are destroyed. But that's all I can think it is. Been a bunch of maps I've noticed it a few times. Thought it might've teleported away but so far can't find the ones that I should have gotten
Hey guys, do you think that running Breachstones for invitation (Tul, Xoph, Esh, Uul-Netol) and then running Invitation (50-60+ quant) and selling the loot can be a profitable stategy? I'd buy breachstones in order to run them, not farming maps. What do you think?
should be good, generally speaking most strategies are profitable as long as you're not outright leaving value on the table
run it for a bit (10 rounds maybe) and track the results + costs
guys how do you fix your mana on vfos ? I can't kill any bosses in a 1 v1
Fuel the fight on a large cluster
Could anyone with experience let me know if this is useful or garbage? I doubled unveiled
Clever thief annoint is good until you can add cluster.
what cluster ?
cluster jewel on map, I didn't get it until near end game.
i mean what passive on that cluster
Fuel the fight, like 1776 said.
Question to all you allknowing people, when farming breach and picking up the rings for gamble i have understood that separating i lvl 83 and 84 is the best, but what about iLvl 85? is there any point on putting thoose aside to?
I'm not even sure what the point is of separating 83 and 84 rings tbh, none of the funky grasping mail mods have an ilvl requirement
i guess it matters for people who are going to craft directly on the grasping mail rather than transfering the mod to another base
Interesting, becuase i believe a inventory was double the price with 84s xD
I heard the same, I just don't know why that's the case
I can only imagine it's because of people crafting directly on grasping mails, but the only mods that care specifically about 84 are resists and some influenced mods
T1 pdr/suppress is 86, T1 %defences are 85
What's the best way to get thaumaturgic dust nowadays?
What's a good budget bossing build in this league? I leveled up as VFOS but I feel like I'm made of wet tissue.
t0 and t1 uniques
anyone have a suggestion for someone who's new on what strat to use to build currency?
which ones are the most cost effective?
I’ve seen people doing einhar, Alva, Jun and basically selling everything, bottling beasts is a bit tedious tho but it’s a triple farm you can do comfortably in maps. I personally love blight, just build lots of scout towers and a couple of freeze/stun ones and you’re golden
Blighted maps you anoint 3x amber and just build scout towers (maybe a few meteor ones) until your fingers bleed
trickster trappers, e.g. explosive trap, ice trap of hollowness.
For vfos, would this rare axe be better than koam’s ?
just check in pob
guys, does cartography scarab affect blight chest drop ?
which merc do you think its better?
is anyone here following Ghazzy's spectre build? Till not I don't know what my HP sustain is, I can't leech or regen HP due to petrified blood. Anyone know if there is any aside from flasks?
hm, it would be cool if mercenaries would use an aura that i give them via item (grants lvl 23 grace)
what should i dust for the best amount/cost ?
(this does not include everything and not all prices are correct + you aren't gonna catalyst jewelry, but it can give you an idea)
also, remember to filter for ilvl too in your trade search
it depends a bit on what you want to use the merc for but I think the left one is better generally
it looks to have much better screen coverage and you don't have the totem delay
left one for sure, right one is low iq to use balista i guess, cos i have right one and its just uses split arrow for single target 90% of the time no matter the position
i have this one for envy right now, and she basically dont cast despair, which i guess cos i have blasphemy so her script doesnt trigger if already cursed
anyone else have same experience?
is there a list of what ultimatum mod to pick and not to pick?
depends on build
just go over list and do your own logic on it, what you can tank and what not
i think emiracle has one actually, check their youtube channel - its fairly recent
the video is specific to CwS chieftain though
btw, if you do phys as well there influence suffixes on helmet
my took me like 500 alts to roll cos none on market on HC
hey i found her aswell but with zealotry which i need, do u have tips on what items to give?
mine does Z so stuff with +300% dmg does nothing really
i need mine to survive so ES body and shavrone ring is a plan right now
