Oh that isn't too bad
I'll probably wait until I finish the build first
get a 5l/rest of the int needed
@copper kernel to put in a seed and see the results
Does worb interact with indigon?
Like does it gain stacks of the damage bonus during channeling?
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but is it smart to use or save the incubators?
Depends on what you want them for
what if I dont know 😛
Rng
Thanks! 😃
@ZushisAnneFrank I'd like to exchange my T15: (Acid Caverns) for your T15: (Summit) in Legion.
What depth can you find Abyssal Chambers for the 6 socket craft recipe?
lul wrong paste
@violet nymph if i were you i would use them
And I feel like it's just to use them when you get them, doesn't seem like it increases a lot if you use them earlier or later
so do you need to actually "leech" in order for Kaom keystone to apply?
Does anyone plays Spiderman here and have trouble breaking the legions?
..spiderman?
I assume he means that dagger that gives spider minions.
i thought maybe chain hook
maybe
Chain hook seems more likely
I know I'm having trouble with legions with my dumb flicker build
so Lethal Pride, can I stick that in any the main Slayer Jewel socket and I should be good regardless? are they all really different?
trying to figure out if its worth dropping 25c on one even though im not sure what it does exactly
@native osprey do you get challenge credit for allocated influenced nodes on a pvp char?
I don't know
i need to borrow some from guild then i guess
What does the icon look like for legion encounters that drop 6 linked items?
nothing special afaik
Well, i wanna know so i can target them specifically if i see them
@pseudo kernel they just drop from weapon/armour icons
Obviously a rare result of them
I see, thank you! Hella nice drop then.
does divining militant faith jewel change the 2 mods on the jewel? not the seed/name but things like aura effect and shit
Anyone else feel like Maraketh encounters and Generals have an impact on Latency times at map entrance? Each time it's high enough to have Jun/Alva and they aren't there, I've had a Maraketh encounter or a General on one side
no @zealous sleet, only the seed/keystone can be rerolled
Keystone can be rrrolled
It will change the name on it If it does
But like you might as well just buy the keystone
That's the only thing that's reliable about the jewels
Do you have to be the person opening the map for the 4way fight to unlock the 5map device?
no
Okty
Hi there, I have heard that legion was gonna end in 2 weeks, I wanted to know if that was true and if it is, if there was a reason for such a short league :O
Thanks guys
leagues dont end prematurely
so it was fake news?
(a couple of people were spreading such info on standard global earlier)
anything global says is a lie
oh im sure youre better off if you just auto assume anything global says is false
even not being in a global chat is good
I came there because I had some issue with my "empty only" map stashes in the first place
(they wont disapear)
did you relog
but well that's not really legion related, might not flood this topic with that
5 times :p
imma go check it now
perhaps downtime fixed it
it didn't
So, what's the strongest build in the game now? Asfacks cyclone build? Or something else?
in the legion 4-5 way battle, how do you reset the battle
stand near the crystal in the center
after about 2 seconds it respawns the entire room
generals have a short cooldown before they can be respawned so if you just killed one you may not respawn it
is there some bug that makes legion rares stun me, despite having Unwavering stance?
Do they stun you and not freeze
anti freeze flask was up
it happened to me several times already, i think i clipped few
happens when few yellow mobs jump on me
not mana issue as well, since my leap and cyclone are mana free thanks to -mana costs
ive found few threads on bug forum about unwavering stance not working, but other than that, no more info sadly
Freeze is the crypto of Cyclone 😃
I have decided though I really hate leap slam.
My mouse is always out of range at the wrong time
@gilded spire click leap slam on your skill bar, toggle always attack in place
No more out of range mouse problems
people, where can i find what the hell do these legion jewels do?
every seed is a little different, but if there's a repository of them its probably on poedb somewhere
I haven't seen a repository
I'm making a small one of my own for elegant hubrises while I hunt for one that suits my character but that's it
(As a side note, if anyone has a bunch of those they wanna sell, I'm game :p)
@undone meadow #guides-archive has an image
thanks
Can't get an answer elsewhere, so question is here:
Does any good, worthwhile build use Kraityn as bandit reward? I mean, I want the achievement, I've sided with Oak and Alira, but never with Kraityn. So if i wanna do that, I should probably find some decent build, yes? What would you guys recommend?
you can just change it with the vendor recipe later if all you want is the achievement
Yeah, but do i get it that way? Are you sure? Also, it costs quite a bit, first to change it, and then change it back
I was thinking, better to make an alt that uses kraityn
I meant as, do the quest as kraitlyn
then change it back to whatever bandit you wanted originally
Oh. But anyway, I would still like to know, is Kraityn crap or does anyone use it?
idk what he even gives as a reward lol
Attack speed and cast speed, something eelse too. some movement speed
6 % inc cast and attack speed, 6 % inc movement speed, 3 % chance to dodge attacks
All pretty mediocre
Basically no reason to take him unless you're like, going for a max dodge/max move build for some reason
So basically, the answer to my question is, yes, Kraityn is crap? 😃
Hmm, if i wanted the achievement, i guess i could run to act 2 super fast, kill alira and oak. Far faster than farming for 20 orbs of regret
Everything besides alira is iffy if not trash tbh
So most take points if not crit or alira if not super rich
They should buff the other bandits
Just take points
extra charge bandit when
Isnt that how it used to be before it was removed for being too powerful
Chance to gain charges on kill would be a more fun option for bandits
Though everyone would just take 2 passives
Commentaires -> Comments since you have everything else in English.
(Looks like probably a Franco if my own writing or thoughts sometimes are anything to sample)
Cool idea though, I started doing something similar for mine too.
Man those timeless jewels are the thing I'm most looking forwards to
When I get far enough for them to drop
So far in my experience they're kind of neat but typically not worth building something around specifically. In most cases, just dropping a decent lethal pride or maraketh one in a high-notable spot is going to be great bang for your buck
Though if you do find a really cool one, you can definitely build something neat around a few of the nodes in the right spots
I was going to screw with a lethal pride but there's a chance it does add X% of phys as fire or something like that and completely fucks my ele equilibrium
I'm using a timeless bleedx2+ frenzy on hit atm
it's pretty nice
frenzy on hit especially is amazing
Sounds like a flicker enabler
You'd need both I guess
though my uh
well it wasn't mine it was a guildmate's
but it had like 2 nodes of frenzy on hit and 2 nodes of damage per frenzy
the 35920
Wow
or like 1 node of frenzy on hit and 3 nodes of phys
idk something like that
lemme check
okay it was
frenzy on hit x1
damage per frenzy x1
melee phys x2
phys x1
so like 240% melee phys, 10% frenzy on hit, 10% damage per frenzy
definitely a flicker jewel x)
thats pretty noice
That's great
near perfect agony
I think an ideal flicker-without-effort gem would have 2 frenzy on hit nodes at least
keystone is the charge sharing one so wouldn't recommend using the keystone haha
Yeah or just go raider :p
Oh yeah that exists
But yeah you'd need two frenzy on hit for comfortable any weapon flicker
I've also found one that's like 240% spell damage + damage per endu and that's between templar and maraudeur so I was like
... totem?
What determines the monster level in the Domain of Timeless Conflict?
Karui notable Gain 5% of Physical Damage as Extra Fire Damage
I don't think I've actually seen this on any nodes I've looked at lol
I've had the damage taken as fire a lot
not the gain as extra
Regardless it's easy enough to just reroll it if it ends up with that on a node you actually allocate, @teal axle - I'd strongly suggest trying a few prides out since it's a very strong jewel
yeah just expensive
divining at least
I'll get one eventually, like I mentioned in the other channel, belt first
massive upgrade for me to get that belt
tbh just buying whatever the cheapest one on the market is and chucking it in your tree will likely be worth it
but yeah belts are nice
Does anyone pay attention to leveling after 90 lol. The XP loss is just lol.... Get close to 91 and seems i magically get 1 shot for no reason...
Yes, various people play the game differently than others
Question why is -mana cost a prefix? Shouldnt it be a suffix?
Why shouldn't it be a prefix?
or why should it be a suffix?
Just seems like it should be either way My steel ring popped a 2 exalted ring for 20 chaos 😃
should I wait till I have 4 emblems till I do the thing? And if I do, is it hard? Not really sure how the thing works
doing a 4 army is good to unlock your 5th map device slot
depending on how geared you are yet the bosses in there might be a bit tanky but they aren't that scary incoming damage wise
what does this "thud-thud-thud" sounding attack does in Eternal Empire rares?
I don't see its attack pattern due to all clutter on screen, but it absolutely destroys me
Shield bash thingy
They smash their shield thrice and send out a shockwave each time
Noticeable wind up and smacks you in the ass
does blood and sand affect cleave aoe?
If its an aoe and not a strike then yes
Are splinters nerfed? Rares doesnt drop any
they havent been, just your RNG friend
absolutely not worth it btw
Assuming a pretty good kill speed, what amount of legion emblems has the best returns per emblem used?
I really really really want to enjoy poes build making but man
I need to get good at making currency
doable and fun sometimes dont intersect
There's a good amount of affordable builds that can go far
guys, anyone has problems sustaining T2 glacier only monolith and out strategy? I have all t2 removed except glacier, t3 removed and leyline shaped. 137 atlas progression. full glacier drops not much more glacier returns, but a crapload of uncompleted connected t3. will it help if I drop some atlas progression?
Do u sustain ever?
Doing that strat
I’ve had a guildie tell me that he can’t sustain even with all t2 t3 removed and upgrade shaped
With a full atlas and a stronghold
just run the other connected t3s without running the bosses and you should easily get more glacier
I think, maybe it will be better if I shape glacier to T7 and shape atlas around it
cause the idea here to open map - do monolith - portal out
I don’t think u can ever fully sustain a map doing that
You just end up not killing enough things
yeah, I've thought about it
You're killing like 200 mobs max lol how can you expect to sustain
where do u get the IQ necessary to weigh these legion jewels?
sion pvp only
o. spicy
Way I've found to sustain: Do Alva and Jun when they appear and sell shards/currency
Not 100% accurate, but that'll give you an idea
For shards, I sell in bulk for 5c chunks and it works well
Does anybody know, if the "on kill effects" also mean more vaal souls?
++
@tawdry badger I sustain easy I went from 10 maps to 40 I only alch and go, only clear the first area
It was a little hard to get the sustain going had to buy ten maps after I ran out from my original 5 maps lol, but so far it's good I think I gained thouse thirty over 200-300 maps
When they say on kill effects fixed for legion?
Does that mean bleed explosion in frozen mobs?
Or its just stuff like Rampage/Blood Rage stuff
next patch will be nice mostly bug fix but 2 new really really great adds. time freezed mob in legion will now have a proper kill interaction with skill and so AND monolith will tell if there is a general
IN
SA
NE
You wont have to bother running all the time wondering if there is one or not
did legion node spawns get nerrfed?
Holy crap, bought a mystery box, costing 30 points, got Wrangler wings, which cost 320 points. That was a very good deal.
It'll be good to tease out the likelihood of generals
I've had him twice since the beginning of the league
So I probably missed him 10 times or sthg
btw out of 5 new bosses 3 are girls women

Yeah she's there. Could be an issue with your character's seed
I've seen her 2-4 times
Am I going crazy, I thought I saw a post that legion monoliths show when a general is available, did i dream that?
in the most recent patch notes
Ok, ty. It's for .3 patch, not live yet.
best map for legion farming?
glacier probably
report: after playing around with corrupted soul, I'm not sure that it's really worthwhile for a trickster to take. The ghost shrouds keep your white bar topped off either way, but the white bar is less effective at protecting your life globe. If I were to die I feel like it would be with full or nearly full ES, defeating the purpose. I'll keep playing with it to see if I feel the same way tomorrow
Trickster has a lot of flat ES
Corrupted Soul seems more useful when you don't have much flat ES
when opening a monolith, i've only been targeting mobs with loot icons above their heads. is this the right way or should I be trying to kill everything?
That's what I do. Prioritize warchests, generals, rares with icons/chests, normal/magic/rare mobs in that order.
ok. i'm not sure how to spot generals but i think that's going to be fixed with the latest patch
^
That's a general outline of how it looks... Generally
ha I get it because generals
generalslly
Chests generally spawn near the general so it's find the primary orientation, run to the back, kill those guys, run to the other side, kill them
No point freeing the guys by the monolith
God I hate buying maps. Every season I get to this point and its when i start to lose interest 😦 138 of 159
@gilded spire if you hate buying maps then don't buy them! You could just treat Atlas completion like you're ssf
Or at most buy the couple of super rare uniques that you'll never get ssf
@gilded spire tried trading maps with poemap.live? I've found that a lot smoother than buying/selling
at least for lower maps, not sure how well it works for high tier stuff
@next epoch Will look into that. Thanks
Poemap.live best website
@silver kettle Point is getting a map shouldnt be so dumb. I get the no AH... But maps need a better way.
There's a kind of a growing consensus that we do need an auction house for trading fungible items (i.e, currency, fossils, maps, fragments, etc)
Even GGG have acknowledged that they need to improve trading those items
So we'll see where that goes
also I'm really curious if legion jewels were made deliberately difficult to trade 😃
I think they were
And tbh im completely fine with that
Game is easy enough alrdy without the ability to find and buy the perfect legion jewel in 5 minutes
@next epoch Yea I could Care less about gear... But the small items that are needed to progress is a def must.. Also when theres just to many things now not to have one
Yo guys got a question. Is farming Burial Chambers still viable with a ton of MF gear? Or is City Square better?
or should I just T15/16 boss farm
depends on what your goal is?
monoliths changing up the farming meta a bit
people MF farm Burial Chambers because it drops the div card
solely measuring income per hour and comparing dif methods
What's the reason I don't see much discussion about farming for Nurse?
is there a website people use for timeless jewel checking
no one is letting me try before i buy
even if i offer double the price
buy try resell for minor loss
otherwise you can only trust what other people tell you it does
How are the on kill mechanics now against legion?
hopefully working
HH now procs 2x
The reason they won't let you try is because they have probably already tried and know the jewel is shit.
Only the really cheap ones are interesting, cause it means someone probably hasn't checked, and bots snag those.
What a great feature.
how do you clear the legion mechanic with cyclone? i cant even clear half of it reliably
its not a DPS problem its just that theres not enough time to get all of them
sounds like a dps problem
You need enough dps to pass through rares in sand stance without slowing down
And obviously you should have quicksilver of adrenaline, 30% ms boots and onslaught on kill
Saw something about spamming glacier maps with alcs. I thought Legion was unaffected by quantity
Are they? If you have 50% quant, do you get 50% more shards (so generals would drop about 10-12 instead of 6-8)
Anyone know if it;s intentional for timeless jewels to overwrite Lioneye's Fall?
Wait didnt the patch 9.7.3 allready updated ? Like the interaction for legion encounter that trigger effect on death should be in the game right now ?
@rancid cedar yes, timeless jewels "conquer" passives, which means that they can't be modified by any other jewel
ah dammit
@placid grotto legion doesnt just drop shards and i think glacier usually spawns legion somewhere quick to get to
i think glacier farming is about all of their drops
They do and it does
No, drop more than shards
considering if you're not eldering glacier you're not getting many maraketh spawns in my experience
you gotta bank on the other drops
Maraketh spawns normally
i feel like it's more frequent in higher maps
It could be, but it takes too much setup
1/10 maps seems fine for me
Not to mention availability of maps
i got 2 legion jewels i heard creating a pvp only scion helps you check the jewels, do i just unlock the 3 jewel sockets close to the start and put them in there? or what? and how do i price check them?
@pastel pilot i think the intent is to use the unlimited respecs to spec in to whatever jewel socket you want
or create multiple LLD scions that jointly have all the sockets
why the fuck do the timeless conflict zones lag like fuck
performing any action makes the ping spike to 1k
bad instance?
did legion drops get nerrfed
Its strange they are suposed to have made legion fully trigger on death effect but something as basic as burning doesnt.... thanks the the shit cleaning
So what does this visual indicator for generals look like? I haven’t noticed anything different when one was spawned.
Im really wondering if they did the update
They did
When you open the big crystal thing, if there is a general
There will be a big swirly misty purply thing
Pointing in the direction of the General(s)
Also what burning on death effect do you mean 🤔
Are certain legion factions more likely to appear in certain maps?
I have like 75% karui for some reason
Theyre all equal?
@proven wadi read as it is ->
I c
finding more vaal/empire personally 🤷
my experience has been eternal > vaal > karui > templar > maraketh
What a coincidence; I was just puting together my data on Legion encounters 😄
data I have from ~20 encounters so far
though I have no idea if higher maps have more likely to hit Maraketh/Templar
based on past league designs I suspect there's a level requirement for those two
this was only in Glacier (T2)
BTW here's the other data I have for Legion; looks like map quantity has no impact on Warchests and likely regular chests
I guess there is some map and tier where you'll most likely encounter some more than others, just a speculation
I doubt it. GGG have used those sorts of selective mechanics very sparingly, and usually with clear signposts
Anyone have a screenshot of this new mechanic thats supposed to show if a general spawns?
I've nearly finished my atlas and I don't think I've gotten a single Timeless Jewel?
is there a way to cause more incubator legion mobs to spawn? I almost never see them, sometimes i'll run across the whole encounter w/o hitting anything just to try and find one
also interested in general indicator gfx
Like not at all?
They just modify passives in a range
Oh wait you mean get like acquire
Haha ignore me
No, like I'm trying to figure out where I need to place the gem to get "Ritual of Shadows" which is:
"(25-35)% increased Chaos Damage
25% chance to inflict Withered for 2 seconds on Hit"
But from every image I see, I'm not getting it.
not all jewels will grant it
its based on your seed
each node gets properties based on your seed
you can divine a jewel for a different seed
10-4. Oh and the number of "bathed in blood" determines the size of the radius?
no
No that's the seed
for all practical intents and purposes, the number is fluff
yeah its not like you can really divine it for a specific number
Okay, I think I understand better now.
Question though, is the seed digit specific or is it a range?
So like would seed 1050 be similar to 1051 or would they be completely different
we have no idea but just assume they are all different and unpredictable
Okay that makes a lot more sense! Ty ! I'm on the same page now.
"we have no idea" makes me feel a lot better. I thought I was the only one.
yeah ggg made them intentionally obscure so that you cant datamine or i guess trade them easily
That's cool I actually really like this. It completely fucks my build up but also makes it so much stronger. So now I have found a balance but still needs way more work. Interesting mechanic!
ever played minecraft
1050 and 1051 are completely different seeds
Or any other pair of neighboring numbers
I feel as if the best profit for a solo player who doesn't wanna fickle around with sextants and investment is just glaciers honestly
I don't think at any point full atlas completion has been good in any league
how are people pricing their timeless jewels? and how are they selling the ones that do something good? i dont understand how these are meant to be traded
full atlas completion was good enough to buy me a headhunter early on few times
Are generals uniques usually?
Yes, Legion Generals are five specific unique monsters
Gotcha. How long does it usually take for that animation to pop up after clicking the monolith? Maybe I'm rushing into it too fast..
how does the visual indicator for generals look like
it was mentioned in the patch notes
and can it be seen BEFORE opening a monolith?
hmm
what is the indicator here? the crystal? or the flame aura thing arond the monolith
the purple aura wavey thing pointing to the right
oh i see it now, thanks
it's not super obvious especially in game :/
its good enough if you know how it looks like imo
bit unfortunate its not longer
so you will want to wait or come back after clearing half of it
Is multistrike still bugged or is the animation cancelling thing fixed?
What do you mean
it would never reach 3rd strike if you held button
it would just cycle 1-2-1-2-1-2
only if you have enough attack speed
pretty sure it still exists
i think cyclone is also sort of buggy with block or something like that
Man these Timeless Jewels are disappointing. "Try this item and see what random effects it has on your skill tree!" is not a fun game mechanic

On the new jewels do the number matter?
@safe fern it's another form of RNG, the entire game is based on RNG....
yeah it's just the jewels are such an endgame reward, it'd be nice if there was a little intentionality in them. I guess I can at least reroll with a Divine
not really, it's easy to obtain a karui jewel
and it's quite trivial to use a karui jewel on any build
if you divine a jewel
does it change the all rolls?
aka the name ones too?
@me if you got the answer
Yes, "Deshret" is considered a random modifier for this item
Notice that, if you hold Alt, "Deshret" has a range
Guys, have you noticed a drop in 5 way emblem returns?
are legion jewels dropping only from 5 way?
no they can drop for lower ones
Any general kill has a chance to drop jewels
Ppl report dropping them off map generals as well
are people just runnign two accounts to have one person sit in legion center
get friends l u l
lMfAo
it's funny how I've shaped glaciers
and doing legion alone without whole map is kinda sustaining them
Yh the general strat is to go in a map find the legion do the legion leave the map
why do anything else
you can sustain them just running Legion? I'm admittedly using T2 maps, but best I've been able to get is 1 drop/2 maps from Legion; more would have to come from either the boss or killing the other mobs
these are on alc'd T2 maps so 60-70 quant usually
If you have 100% chance to impale on hit and you hit with an earthquake that also has shockwave linked, do you get 3 impales (hit, shockwave gem, aftershock)?
does MF grant extra quant on boxes from legion or is it just the mob kills themselves that get extra quant?
ya i thought so too, thx
My data shows it's likely independent of map quantity
np you can find other data here
just adding things on as I go
just got a legion jewel that has 2 80% phys within 5 points of socket
is this good
Only you can answer that question really 🤔
percent damage increase is easy to come by, that's why crit builds are so much better
is it normal for legion jewels to override lion eye's fall ?
They conquer passives in their radius
There’s always at least one reward node in an encounter right? Or am I just that unlucky
That I didn’t see it
Well fuck
Did 10 maps this morning and 7 of those had no reward nodes. All open maps and I went from side to side
It's unlikely that 7 in 10 had no reward nodes at all
I think that I've ever seen 0 rewards 2, maybe 3 times
Yeah not that they weren’t there just didn’t see them
Must have been bad rng with only 1 node that I missed
Can someone tell me if just having a HH will make your build viable for emblem fights?
In terms of like you clear them optimally since from what I understand it's a time based event
It still depends a bit on which skill you're using and whether you're buffing damage that's already there or just trying to create damage that isn't
Generally you'd want to increase the duration that you have HH buffs for to stack more of them at once so solstice vigil and self-curse temp chains tend to be important
And these are specific uniques,gem combination, or some kind of rare lab/shaper enchant?
solstice vigil is an amulet, and you self-curse with shackles of the wretched
Like could you slap that combination on a build?
Ok so it takes a belt and ammy slot?
I see
A lot of people run kaom's roots with that too so that the temp chains doesn't slow you down either
Are those boots?
Yes
Aha
with those 4 slots taken, though, pretty much any build would be fine
Its actually very doable then
I lose out on a free vulnerability debuff
From the onyx impresemce
But with expensive enough rings I could still get the high resists
Ok and on another note, which melee skill would you say is preferable in those encounters? Cause my main skill currently is lacerate
hey guys im looking for lethal pride timeless jewels + the maraketh timeless jewel i jsut need to borrow them for challenge
I just found out that kaoms roots would destroy any evasion based build
it's a common mistake
@thick cosmos Just buy the lowest priced one, equip it, and sell it for 1c less. It works every time.
you probably gonna make like 10 times more than that in 60 maps
ehh maybe 5-8 times
Can anyone explain to me, why glacier is better than say, strand? Been running strand (as suggested by ti3n at league start), and don't feel im seeing the same returns
I think it is because frequently the monolith spawns very near to the start
it's not as good when it spawns in the cave section
but I guess it is offset enough by how frequently it is there in the first area
So if i run a qotf setup, there shoulnd't be that much of a diffrence?
I dont think it ever spawns in the cave section
So its just always a 5 second run to the monolith then 30 seconds to clear it
Then u ignore rest of map and go again
it does spawn in the cave. I think it's about once every 20 or so maps
I personally do Syndicate/Incursion if they show up and that's it
though lately I've been doing the boss as well
not sure if it's worth it; I'm doing it for the moment until I can get the Elder orb
but to answer your question, Glacier encounters feel larger than Strand's, which means you get more value/map. It's also usually closer to the portal. But I can see Strand being easier to sustain.
If you shape both T3s connected to glacier, it's quite easy to sustain. I usually run through the cave and kill the mobs before the main boss. Takes about 15 seconds longer, but I've got a stash tab of glaciers now
Is it possible to get a HeadHunter from a Singular Incubator?
is the singular incubator the one that gives you a random incubated item?
if yes then yes
but it'd be a minuscule chance
kind of like getting a HH from a void div card
ahh cool, even if that chance is miniscule its still a chance thank you for the answer
tips on getting 150+ enemies freed and full clears with cyclone?
Use Berserk
To become bigger and be faster do more damage
I have seen that doing it in Blood aqueduct is easier
Tigher area do Legion spawns in tigher grouping
Killing chests first frees surrounding enemies
And high movement speed and aoe is key
i guess if you spawn it next to passage to other side
if it spawns on the straight line there should be no way for 150
i hate when theres a wall and it spawn enemies on the other side
You know how easy it is to accidentally enter a portal? Even though you don't directly click on it? Is there a way to configure the UI to be less portal-sticky?
Do you get more rewards in emblems fights with more people in it?
how do i get the 5 slot map device ? do i need to do a 4 timeless conflict fight first?
yes
do you guys think a 6L essence drain + 6L blight setup is the best for SSF 4/5 way farming? blight can do lots of single target dps
I find the speed of cycloner lackluster and can't get past 2 rows with pretty highend gear (for ssf standars, so no HH, inspired learning, +3 range foils, etc)
i'm open to any other suggestions, I do have two BLS so maybe something with that?
that should be super good.
what do you guys think is the better money maker right now? MF burials spam or movement speed legion spam?
burials are even more of a noob trap post nerf
so stay away from burials and do legion spam with MS?
i didnt hear about BC nerf what did they do?
HH and by extension all its sources are more rare
so running BC isnt nearly as profitable as legion spam now i suppose?
i find the legion spam kinda boring i like seeing a juicy drop every once in a while
but im trying to be efficient as possible
burial chambers still super profitable to farm at t5
got my HH and 3 inspired learnings while farming BC's for a week
4 doctor drops out of 500+ maps
alch and go
I prefer Glacier for steady returns, personally. Isn't BC's average typically 1 doctor per 2-300 maps?
anyone know where I can find a carry for 5 man encounter?
not carry is in completion I have that already
carry as in someone with HH and inspired learnings who just wants to run for EXP
Huh BC would give about 2-4ex/hr assuming you can regularly get Doctors
Dah i been doing carries all day long for free
Appreciate the math Tralf
Guess i got lucky with drops compared to most people
Wait crap that's before costs
this was when HH was 100-120 ex and IL were 12-14ex
when you farmed BC did you run full MF or MS?
That's going to be a much smaller number
yes full MF
What's your sustain ration for BC? 1.5ish?
thats really low wow
Was running 6ld windripper and 6ld qotf though
HoI chain helped a lot with legions
did you use ventors?
no 2 white pariahs
Will message back once i get 2 of the 5 emblem carries out of the way
what other quant items you used?
im trying to setup a TS MF right now
take ur time ill be hanging around
i got qotf and windripper devotos rigwalds and seven step, now i just need some MF wondering what items were good for that
I'd drop the seven steps tbh and throw on goldwyrms
that's 20% quant and 40+ fire res you're missiing out on
my setup was Sadimas, Goldwyrms, 2 white pariah rings, biscos, and windripper
I didn't go for devotos at the time and bought a +2 TS mirrored helm that would cap me on my res
is the +2 really necessary to farm a t5 map?
and yeah good call goldwyrms would be a lot better
for a bad helm would be 6ex min
how much chaos did u net p/h on avg?
bcz most of these alch and go MS builds are netting like 500+ not on BC
although im guessing 3-400+ is more realistic since the dude had mirror gear+hh
Guess it's personal preference really
I wasn't really keeping track of that since i would run around 50 BC's and dump all my loot in quad tabs
I had a lot of 1-3ex item drops whether it'd be from a div card up to a 6 link
man ur really making me re-think running BC
ive just been strand spamming and its decent im making like 9-11ex per 100 maps
do you know how much you made per 100?
I just ran BC because i had a feeling I'd drop doctors lol
didn't get my first one until 150 maps in
then i got another maybe 20 maps after that
can't really say how much i made per 100
150 maps in jesusss thats nutty
do you know how long it took you to run 100 or even 10?
see if afraid ill swap over make less money and then wont get doctor till 1k
was hoarding all the currency i had until i knew i can liquidate and buy what i needed
I guess i can say each map took about 2 mins like Tralf said
maybe less if i were to run on a much strict filter
you're really making me wana buy some quant gear and shape bc right now.. <__>
just leave it done so i can get bc drops?
I don't get what you're saying
I just uncompleted all my t5/t6's
shaped promenade
well im doing t4 rn
ohhh
yea it doesn't hurt to add BC
i would still uncomplete all your t6's though
if i complete bc and dont uncomp t6s will i get them as drops from running t4?
yea you still have a chance to drop 2 tiers higher
so you would get both t5 BC and t6's to drop from running t4's
Ah makes sense yeah
im about 800 maps in with no doctor 😦
probably more worth it to go with unique incubators and hope hh drops XD
so i have two jewels and they're very similar
but one jewel has 10% chance to intimidate on hit and the other has 5% chance to deal double damage
which one to pick?
the one that has 5% chance to deal damage gives me only about 250 hp while the other gives 350 hp
but it also has phys damage taken as fire dmg
as well as reduced damage taken from critical hits
Hm chance to intimidate is like 10% more melee single target isn't it
Whereas 5 to double is only 5% more
If you do not already have a form of increased damage taken then yes the intimidate is better
what's a good small map to get full clears in
glacier
Yes
I didn't recognize the name because as soon as I looked at the keystone I thought "Nope."
Helmets are too strong to give up for lucky crits, even though lucky crits are great. It has a use case where you've got mid-tier gear and don't want to deal with an enchant maybe and you're doing lightning crit maybe
I think I'll use the blind + 25% more crit chance instead
its basically the same thing but my build gets no downside
it'll help since I'm using a unique staff without high base crit chance
Yeah that's interesting for sure
YO WTF just crrrashed in two different 5 mans
Are people still buying glaciers in bulk? Because then I might just do it so I can sell the excess maps to them :p
5 emblems? Not sure if it's actually the issue, but me n my friend both crashes when we had incubators on
Like constantly crashes
Then we made sure to not go in with incubators and havnt crashed since
So how timeless jewels rarity actualy do you think at some point we will be able to buy them at resonable cost ?
Yeah i just checked its seems fine, last time i checked there wasnt even any jewel sold so i thought this would be super rare
When was that
not so long and anyway i can see some jewel at an affordable price but OF COURSE there isnt the one i want...
fuck
my
life
How to you even know which one you want besides keystone
Because you go on wiki and you can see informations
And the keystone itself is enough, then there is the number but you can try to randomise them yourself, but there isnt even have the one i need.................................
If you can find the right base with the wrong keystone name, you can divine until you get the right keystone. I did that for doryani since the base with the wrong name was 1/3 the price.
this life just fond new ways everyday to shit on me
Divining changes the name
Well ofc there isn't the number you need because there's like 100000 different numbers for each jewel
is there a downside to constantly respawning mobs in 5 ways emblems? like i have my friend just constantly respawning the map as soon as its possible for him (and i just go around killing shits, nonstop*)
Seems no one had done listing for now but for what i saw in video and so maybe the number could be by ranges, like 0-1000 gives one bonus, 1001 -2000 another and so on
we're still on our early tries, so kinda wondering if we can make the runs more profitable
Pretty sure you'd make more profit selling the emblems, if you don't run HH or some speed farming build
The 3 cheapest emblems are p cheap
Not that awful to spend if you wanna invest in league content
Is there any act 1-10map that is used for monolith farm?
Or maps simply better?
glacier seems to be the best. some people like city square.
quarry is, imo, the "best" campaign area but its not better, just cheaper to run if you havent set up your atlas
I don't think you can easily find the spawn in Quarry
Anyone tried headhunter with ED/Contagion on 5 way emblem fight?
I think Bridge or Foothills would be better
They're linear and pretty close; Quarry could be in any direction, 2-3 screens away from the WP
Spawn in quarry is same few places every league mechanic always is
Bridge sucks
Not this league
Its never more than a screen or two away and u can see it about half the time u load in
From the area immediately around WP
However, things like Fortifications with Jun or Monolith can't be easily seen
Its only ok for experience
Is it a known bug/issue that you randomly get kicked out of the game during emblem fights and when you log back in all your portals are gone?
its an instance crash, they have fixed a lot of them but its possible that you have an undocumented one. you could check the bug report forums or make a new report there
did that already but my emblems are gone now, fml
yeah rip
dont incubate stuffs while doing emblems
I think there's some kind of bug with incubators hatching in general
Yeah, its just that there's more to lose for you, if its gonna lag/crash you during emblems
which map to elder, mausoleum or leyline?
Are you running it or for Glacier
glacier broke, no
send energy 
Inside
any incubators worth running for glacier runs, i wanna buy some to have 9 running all the time 😮
hmm probably gilded fossil incubators from red maps
should be able to buy for 3-4c and turn it into a 5-15c fossil
hmmm just ran a map to see how much stuff gets killed doing Legion and then boss, not really stopping to kill stuff. I think T2 Glacier has about 400-600 monsters including Legion. Over 1k if you get Alva
do timeless jewels only drop from the 5-way conflict?
no, they can drop from any domain of timeless conflict
I've seen some mention that they can even drop from generals spawned by monoliths in maps, but haven't seen confirmation of that
does any1 know why some of my auras dont effect me
which auras?
purity of elements
are you using generosity or victario's influence?
yea
Is a devoto devotion with ice nova damage actually worth 6ex like it says on poe trade?
I would imagine so!
@quasi vapor yeah, people want devotos for increased movement speed to run glaciers
and inc ice nova gives them better damage to do so (for Vaal Ice Nova)
yea the vaal ice nova farming seems very stronk
How do i sustain glacier without elder orb? Shape glacier and uncomplete tier 7/8s?
y
How do monolith scale with quanity and pack size of a map?
They don't
They do, with pack size
bwaaaaaah really?
I never feel like they're bigger or anything but I'll pay attention to that over the next few maps I do with rampage to count em
Guys where can i sell a 5way embelm set as a whole ?
If anyone's wondering, this is the loot from 50 shaped glaciers, alch and go + abyss mod. Full map clear. Started with 4 maps.
I anso ran dapth 400 delves with the sulphite and cracked monoliths from zana's missions. Full monolith opening beacuse ED.
TL:DR : Don't farm shaped glaciers, there's no point. Farm t2 ones.
what about this tells us not to run shaped ones?
if you ever saw loot from non shaped ones, you'd know it looks exactly the same ^^
this is pretty much twice as slow tho, you need to clear the grotto most of the time to sustain maps. Not worth it.
This is money tho and worth farming, don't get me wrong. But t2 is better.
Ye I mean to be fair we know that map tier doesn’t have a measureable impact on loot
I couldn't actually find any info on that.
That’s pretty common game knowledge
Also, There is definitely more rares with symbols in monoliths as you go up in tiers
It’s one of the biggest criticisms of the current atlas structure
Yeah that’s the case for legion specifically
So that part is true
and incubators drop better loot at higher tiers. Excepts I got a grand total of 0 incubators where tier matter.
hence, t7 glacxiars make no sense
For a long time it’s always been better chaos per hour to run low tier maps
Not to mention white sextants vs yellow or red
that's indeed a big thing
Yeah it’s kinda interesting that high tier maps aren’t really incentivized but perhaps that will change
Or maybe it won’t
to be fair
uber elder farming is usually really good, it's just eclipsed by glaciers/alleways atm
especially now that starforge is 8ex
Also, t16+ maps always have that chance to drop that huge shaper/elder atlas base that's worth a ton
(it's not like I carried someone who looted an elder astral lvl 86 and tipped me 5c:'()
anyways. time to sleep. bye ^^
Adios
just spamming any t5-8 gave more more over 100s of it , doesnt look to good
I'm not certain higher level incubators drop better loot
Testing with ilvl 72-86 hasn't given any clear indication
Granted, sample size of about 20 and still WIP
how does the jewels work
ever played minecraft
are all these insane mana modifiers on item going to be taken out for next league?
What do you mean
-mana cost most likely
isnt it mostly just insane because cyclone is a channel skill and doesn't cost much mana to begin with?
base cost of 2 i think, doesn't scale up ether since its an attack
sorta glad i splurged and bought a nice double -mana cost ring early on
-15 mana on a single ring, frees up my other ring to stack resists and what not
thougoh some of the legion mechanics still end up blowing me up
especially in t14+
¯_(ツ)_/¯
The mana cost craft will likely be neutered as will Cyclone
And ED/C, ironically
Though if Legion weren't the mechanic and something like Betrayal was (where clear isn't as important), EDC would be left alone
also time for a Tornado shot nerf feels like
or just buff and tweak up the other bow skills
vaal tornado shot when, its just ranged vaal cyclone
They should make wander not a pain
-mana rings aren't the problem with cyclone though. if it weren't for that people would just dip into mana on hit or mana leech or something
It doesn't matter if the rings are a problem or not; only what GGG perceives as a problem. Similar the (initial) Raging Spirit increase in mana cost last league
Anyone know what builds are good for 5-way legion farming? Is it just cyclone or TS with HH?
ed/contagion with high dps is not viable there?
No
I got my first abyssal depths yesterday. It was alright. Got a crappy stygian vise
In a perfect situation, how many mobs does Vaal Arc hit? At max level it chains 9 times, and the skill says "Each time the beam chains it will also chain simultaneously to a second enemy". So does it double with each leap and end up hitting 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32... + 512 = 1022 mobs?
(I'm adding Vaal Arc to my Storm Brand build to help with monolith clearing)
@safe fern did you figure it out? by the wording i would guess it can hit 27 or 28 at once. like it has one free chain per primary hit/chain. thats the way i interpret it. however i am not sure, but if you tried it let me know what the results were.
It definitely hits more than 28
it sort of looks like it does, and I found some discussion on Reddit speculating it should. no confirmation.
video of vaal arc in action (ignore the rampage): https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/cb36u4/rampage_vaal_arc_legion_monolith/
Normal Arc doesn't have exponential growth, the description says "Each time the main beam chains it will also chain to a second enemy, but that secondary arc cannot chain further." So that gets you to your 28 or so.
Will you guys alc your glacier maps or just run them as normal quality
Vaal Arc doesn't have that restriction on chaining further: "Each time the beam chains it will also chain simultaneously to a second enemy, but no enemy can be hit twice by the beams."
that "no enemy can be hit twice" helps force the Vaal Arc to spread further. But it also limits the amount of damage any single target takes. I'm up to about 100,000 average damage per hit (according to PoB)
that looks like it would make a good farmer build
it's helping me, I think. Storm Brand is great as a primary damage spell but it doesn't spread fast enough to unfreeze a whole Monolith spawn.
mostly I'm trying to work out whether I need Chain Support to boost it to 11 chains. if I'm right and Vaal Arc already hits ~1000 mobs, I certainly don't.
I do alc and go for T2 Glacier. Without Shaper orb and ~60% Atlas, I'm at about 50% sustain
this reddit post today has some clever Atlas manipulation to help sustain T2 Glacier. https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/cbhuap/how_to_contagion_ed_in_glacier_and_selfsustain/
sorry to have bored you with something you already know. it was clever to me.
Uncomplete all T4 maps. This is really only important if you plan to boss kill on Glacier in addition to doing the Legion.
at that point just shape it to t7
impossible to not sustain t7 with boss
Uncompleting t4s is a colossal waste of time
even with complete t4s he drops t1 99% of the time because bosses prefer adjacent maps
I should probably shape my t1
:\
I don't normally kill the boss though so 🤷
,.wat
“Impossible to not sustain t7 with boss”
explain
Even when shaped the boss still drops t1-t3
they're fixing that in the newest patch
its in the patchnotes
oh this was 6 hours ago lol
@safe fern I'd say the strength with Vaal Arc is not its hit damage but it's potential with Ignite Proliferation. Since Ignites are not based on hits you can also add Chain Support to arc w/o reducing the ignite damage, rather the extra chains will scale the Ignite due to Arc's damage multiplier per chain and Ignite Proliferation will spread the first hit's Ignite to all other enemies since it will be the highest DPS. The extended reach of Vaal Arc with Chain Support will, despite the extra damage from +2 chains, naturally come at a cost of a potential other support gem.
Anyhow, I got another question for y'all: Is there some kind of compilation of the Timless Jewels' non-keystone passive effects in relation to position/seed roll?
nope
The modifiers granted by passive skills that are conquered by Timeless Jewels are now displayed underneath the native modifiers that it grants.
das cool
The problem with Arc is the same as EDC; past a given radius, monsters can't take damage. This is typically where Generals and rares are. Except unlike EDC, Arc is nearly instantaneous so you can't help it along after casting
timeless jewels are like lotto
you need some website now to make people input with someone's above approval and based on numbers you decide if you win or not
number 1234? bam you win
🎆
A couple of questions about legion domain encounter: Are generals on a cooldown? do you need to hit the center to trigger them or just Wait a fixed amount of time?
They can't res for 30 seconds after dying
For glacier farm do you shape it or just break all map links and run it as t2 through the monolith?
Uncomplete so other T2s. If you have Elder Orb, use that and Shaper Orb on connected T3's then uncomplete all others. Otherwise, I think you can leave T3's completed for more chance T1->T2
shape alleyway leyline, elder mausoleum, uncomplete all other t2 and t3
Leyline* alleyways should be removed aswell as all other t2
hi, i was wondering if the legion monolith mobs can drop every unique in the game or if they have a specific loot table of uniques they drop
is it worth to kill generals in legion 5 way?
takes a long time instead of killing regular mobs
it's not worth doing the 5 way if you're not doing the generals and killing them instantly
better to sell your keys
if you wanna do it for fun then whatever
but you're wasting money
God im having fun with most stuff in this game, but chimera smoke phase and the maraketh flicker mobs just boycott my fun ....
/rantover
just getting oneshot from outside my screen
killing generals instantly? god how much dps do you need for that
i do have a headhunter but they still have a fuck ton of hp
you need a hyper optimized dps setup and/or to be on lowtier maps to do that
also
i think he meant he was getting one shot
Is there any gem setup for ES/Caster that would make me more resistant to these bursts? maybe something to switch into when doing legion encounter
?
Cast on Damage taken / Immortal Call maybe?
if you're dying during chimera smoke phase you just want to be faster or bring a quicksilver if you aren't running one
or a movement skill
but yes a cwdt setup would help
against legion rares, if you don't have it:
- basalt flask, dying sun or taste of hate can be effective defensively if you need it
- if you have 2 flasks to swap around, sorrow of the divine + a life flask for burst heal can also be good (not feasible for all builds)
- using shield charge or leapslam as appropriate with fortify-faster attacks to have fortify up
im running ed contagion with reserverd hp, so life flask is no use. stibnite is an idea tho
ok skip that one yeah
basalt or stibnite is good defensive option, um
ensuring you have proper EHP (around 7k eff life after MoM, or 10k ES for pure ES build)
so that you have time to react
leech is hard for you too...
(though i did recommend sorrow of the divine for a reason)
hm
endurance charges are a strong add if you can fit generation somewhere
if not at least get the fortify going
that + ehp + flask swap will be the bulk of what gets you there
sorrow of the divine looks nice, good idea. i mean for chimera i just need to time to survive till i unveil him and for legion cwdt is probably the idea against 3-4 melees jumping on me.
ill experiment a bit
ty
just watch your mods on guardian maps, don't be afraid to reroll
also consider block and rumi's concoction
possibly reconfiguring to fit a glancing blows karui jewel
not joking
75% attack block is pretty solid when its reducing half of incoming damage
Currently on a rather high dps setup with only 6k es, but that is pprobably the struggle. dps or survivability ^^
maybe i just need to git gud
xd
the others are not really a problem because movement just avoids all dmg, just chimera has that undodgable slash
^
On that note, why does the light mechanic with hp even exist? dark maps are horrible and putting a point into ES Light feels sop wasted
its mostly a thematic thing to give a sense of drama to staying on low life
does feel weird that arcane vision is needed though yeah
do es builds use arcane vision or just live with the darkness?
they usually take arcane vision
Ci prevents it too I think
probably because youre always on full hp with ci, right?
Yea
with reserving im basically always low life
just saw i had some points taken for HP, so i respecd got 1k more ES and Arcane Vision xD
A gift from my former, forgetful self
😄
they said in the update note something about better seening if general is present .. was that only for timeless domain or also for monolith encounter ?
with the 5 slot map device, can you put an atziri fragment in it along with a shaper set for bonuses to shaper loot?
