[autumn snow]

how much are they paying anyway

[mortal yarrow]

4-5c each

basically paying the maps back for me cause i take 4-5

[kindred dagger]

i still dont get your point lol you cant do anything about the guy he if decid to loot you

you are saying you kick him before entering the map lol

like the guy is gonna say on his own "hey im intend to scam you and still everything in your map, still fine are we going ?"

[mortal yarrow]

the thing you dont understand is the maps are practically free for me

so if a guy decides to try loot faster than me

he can feel free

he just wont be in next run

[autumn snow]

what if you drop something good

like an ex

[mortal yarrow]

then sucks to be me if he gets it first

even tho im doing it for the endgame grind

they are just there for the completion

so most of them will exit upon completion

thats what i made the team do that i ran with

[valid bloom]

1k hour of playtime

got a 6 link drop

but its corrupted so joke's on me

[spice cipher]

free divine

[sharp vessel]

you cant anoint any talismans, right? including rigwald's curse

[silver kettle]

right. can't anoint corrupted items

[uncut radish]

@violet nymph

[mortal yarrow]

@patent canyon and so ends one of the endgame grinds with shaper farm

[orchid cosmos]

but what if we turn one of our amulets into a talisman and had it anointed previously

[patent canyon]

Chris Wilson appears next to you and sprinkles you with water

[slender jetty]

do sextants affect blighted maps?

[mortal yarrow]

nope

[dusty umbra]

Neither do frags

[vernal stream]

Got 2ex to drop from two 20c blight maps this morning. Bought 10 and still have 6 left to run. Low tier maps is where it's at.

[autumn snow]

it's pure rng

[vast gazelle]

ok defiled cathedral with 140 quant, abyss and breach

u better help me sustain

oh and zana

oh sorry 130 quant

[hollow leaf]

which are the best oils for rings?

[wary smelt]

used t14 red map but only have 1 map lol time to lose money

[gloomy bay]

I’m using Scout Tower damage and seems to work fine

Solo’d a T11 Blighted map with towers doing 90% of the work

[warped mountain]

K so I need to use a golden oil

i have a t15 blighted map

what other oils should I use for max profit

[midnight phoenix]

Dont u need to use golden plus black for that challenge

[mortal yarrow]

gold + black yes

[elder night]

What exactly are lucky chests?

And do lucky chests count as 1 single chest or all the chests from a portal?

[mortal yarrow]

not sure about 2nd part

but it means it rerolls the chest

[deep wave]

Does anyone know if blight maps drop more loot for a 6 member party?

[deft girder]

mobs yeah

I guess you can get 5 people to do nothing but upgrade to avoid crashing the instance.

[slender temple]

I crashed a regular map last night with volatile dead was on burial chambers boss room. Game just stopped for two minutes then booted me to char select . Something to do with degen floor plus curses and all the autocast shit I had going . Had a few crashes on regular Cassia too

[acoustic lark]

can you get the 5 slot map device if you join a party?

or do you have to be the host?

[mortal yarrow]

@patent canyon we doing the blighted map endgame grind push now

12 to go

just bought 12

[patent canyon]

gl on drops

[mortal yarrow]

at this point idc about the drops

i just wanna finish

so i can get my HH and then go play borderlands 3

gonna be around 7½ days played time in total tho

for 40 challenges

kind of impressive

[patent canyon]

thats kinda low

got lucky with majority cancer ones

[mortal yarrow]

yeeee

i would be on 39 if i did rotas

tbh

im at 345/525 atlas hvande while being at like 60 of them being from rotas

[autumn snow]

@mortal yarrow that's a ton of hours in 21 days

[mortal yarrow]

yes it is

i have no life and i hate myself

[surreal helm]

So has anyone tried "Vengeant Cascade" notable?
How good is it?

[patent canyon]

complete utter trash

[surreal helm]

oof

and it requires a golden oil?

oh, it requires two

[languid path]

eh no, deadeye used to have the same node, but it never doubled your dps

as in it was useless then as it is now

I never said 2013

I said deadeye used to have the same node

irrelevant how? it's the same effect, doesn't matter when, and unless you can show the node did exist in 2013, otherwise you're the irrelevant one

the only other instance of returning proj I can remember was a tora mod, which didn't exist until 2014

[next epoch]

a Tora mod which was generally considered useless, at that

[wary smelt]

https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/da4qtf/psa_if_you_use_fractured_fossil_on_blighted_map/

[warped mountain]

question

3 golden oils

75% chance for a second reward or w/e

how does that work?

additional reward, rather

I don't see how its worth it to use 3 golden oils on a t15 blighted map and fractured fossil it

you'll never get the 160-200c fractured fossil return on every map, let alone the initial 3 goldens + t15 map

[slender temple]

Its like GGG put a requirement to exalt slam a map just for "challenge"

[thorny vortex]

what about selling copies of the map with the anointments on them...for people looking to complete the challenge or w.e. it may be cheaper to buy a mirrored map with the anoints than to buy the oils...but guess we see where prices go

[topaz imp]

lmao

that's an insane strat

might give it a go

[halcyon scroll]

can i anoint a ring that buffs the buffing turrets?

[grizzled moth]

double damage :/

[topaz imp]

wtf double golden oil drop

[patent canyon]

illegal

[violet nymph]

damn

[slender temple]

Oh my RNGesus

[topaz imp]

wouldn't recommend the fossil strat given how much everything costs and overal (from my experience) you're better off running lower tier maps because it's less investment for better reward in the long run

[autumn snow]

@topaz imp bullshit

you stole my rng

[topaz imp]

oh i thought you were talking about my comment

lmao

i lost like 7ex today testing t15 maps

[autumn snow]

what are you running now

[topaz imp]

i need this

t13

50% of the price

3 teals (you can slide 1 quant oil in also cheap)

[autumn snow]

what's the difference between 13 and 15

I've tested a ton of them and tbh

[topaz imp]

15s cost more to maintain

[autumn snow]

I'm not sure there's a difference

[topaz imp]

and from my experience give the same rewards

[autumn snow]

exactly

the breakpoint is t13 for golden

[topaz imp]

so you essentially need to make up the extra money in rng

that double golden oil drop was from a t13

if anyone is going to run maps at all i would 100% recommend t10-t13 maps

[autumn snow]

I still have to sell my two sporeguards lol

[topaz imp]

maybe t14s if you can get them for cheaper but the mechanic imo doesn't provide enough reward for the extra rarity of the t14/15 maps

and the lower tier maps don't provide enough of a reward to warrant buying them at the price they are either

[autumn snow]

I can only recommend t13+ for people that have enough currency to do 20+ maps

[topaz imp]

if you can buy 5+ i think you'll be fine honestly

[autumn snow]

5 is gambling

[topaz imp]

the fact stacked decks are so lucrative right now in their raw state 5 is easily enough to sustain imo

[autumn snow]

not sure now but two days ago I sold mine super fast at 4.5c piece

[topaz imp]

yeah

it's like 4.5-5c to sell atm

[autumn snow]

how's your sporeguard drop rate

[topaz imp]

havent had one

[autumn snow]

what really

[topaz imp]

but i'm having 6-10 gold oils a day

[autumn snow]

I'm dropping 1 every 20 maps

[topaz imp]

my rng for that kind of item is pretty bad

[autumn snow]

I'm still not sure what drops it

do all mobs drop it?

bosses?

[topaz imp]

idk if they drop it

[autumn snow]

specific boss?

[topaz imp]

i would be surprised if it's not generally from the loot explosion or mobs

[autumn snow]

I dropped 3 so far

all from loot explosion

[topaz imp]

they should have made the blight explode into a boss at the end

[autumn snow]

more like a chance to drop a unique blighted map at blighted maps

for the big boss

[topaz imp]

that would be cool

[autumn snow]

league looks kinda unfinished?

[topaz imp]

ever since the update the blight maps have felt less hectic

i'm pretty well geared

and i can literally afk an entire t13 map

with 0 towers

[autumn snow]

that's normal

[patent canyon]

better that than 2fps with screen full of everything

[topaz imp]

i never had problems before the change

if there was an option to get mobs at twice the rate for half the time the map takes

that would be amazing

it felt engaging before

[autumn snow]

I had 1-3 fps on my first blighted map lol

[topaz imp]

i had like 20-30 before the change

rn i'm getting 40+ ish

[autumn snow]

my cpu sucks tho :/

game lags a lot generally

[topaz imp]

ye see my pc is fat so my experience with it is very different than what most other people are dealing with

[compact junco]

i think its more about gpu than cpu tho

[autumn snow]

it's not

[compact junco]

i have pretty sick cpu but using igpu and game lags a lot

[autumn snow]

at least not for me

gpu is at 40-55%

cpu is at 100%

[topaz imp]

me

[autumn snow]

what cpu?

[topaz imp]

i7 6700k

[autumn snow]

yeah

i5 4430

[topaz imp]

yeah my pc is pretty chonk

i'm hoping they'll push out some more fixes so everyone can enjoy the higher tier blight maps without worrying

[autumn snow]

I wish poe ran like LoL

I know that's impossible but still :/

[wet plaza]

easy lets just spawn 3 packs per map

[autumn snow]

duh :x

[compact junco]

barely using cpu for me

that is 78/400

[autumn snow]

@compact junco what cpu/gpu

igpu? wat

[compact junco]

processor       : 7
vendor_id       : GenuineIntel
cpu family      : 6
model           : 142
model name      : Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-8550U CPU @ 1.80GHz

yeah

i have just igpu

[autumn snow]

...

[compact junco]

uhd 620

:d

[topaz imp]

lmao

[autumn snow]

"i think its more about gpu than cpu tho"

[compact junco]

this was supposed to be work ntb

[autumn snow]

runs with an igpu

[dusty umbra]

meanwhile chrome eats all my ram

[compact junco]

lol

[autumn snow]

what the fuck is that

89 tabs

[wet plaza]

12gb ram

heresy

[autumn snow]

3*4?

[dusty umbra]

4x4

[compact junco]

you just have to switch to hipster browser 👌 qutebrower for me is usually max at like 10% of mem, and that is with bunch of shit open

[topaz imp]

y'all know if the harbringer pustule for blight is the rarest one to get?

[autumn snow]

just close that shit

[wet plaza]

download more ram

ezfix

[autumn snow]

that's how I got my internet

I downloaded

[topaz imp]

@autumn snow have you had any exalts from blighted maps so far?

[autumn snow]

from what

[dusty umbra]

i haven't done many but i got an exalt or few from blighted maps

[autumn snow]

I had ex from both loot explosion & chests

[topaz imp]

i've yet to get an exalt too

is there anyway to check how many blighted maps you've done?

[autumn snow]

you can try checking end game grinds

stops at 100 tho

[topaz imp]

87 total

and easily 80~ of them are done in he past few days

[mortal yarrow]

I didnt get a single raw ex from 100 maps

[worthy turtle]

I gave up and bought some blighted maps. drop rates are just too low to farm them manually..

ran 15 t15's. 110 chaos each. 3 teal oils. if currency cop is accurate, the dump tab for them is 4,354c.
they're pretty profitable. Just a pain to have to buy them all the time..

[celest atlas]

hmm any comments on blight stability .. ran one on monday and crashed .. so im not sure if i wanna spend my currency on seeing a crash 🙂

[worthy turtle]

have had no crashes since last week

[muted lotus]

Ok i have a problem occasionally being one shot when I leap slam onto a pack of lane mobs....happened about 3 times now and I don't understand what's happening. Not a Fire lane, mobs not attacking me, its the instant I land, like a reflect....but no reflect mod on the map and I'm immune to phys reflect. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

[acoustic lark]

i got an abyss in an abyss?

[copper kernel]

nah

thats an indicator for a spawn point

[acoustic lark]

nothing's coming up

[copper kernel]

because the encounter ended

[acoustic lark]

is it worth rolling on gemcutter strongboxes?

[sterile brook]

that's a lotta ram yo

@dusty umbra restart chrome

[vast gazelle]

@muted lotus in some cases blight moons can have nasty melee attacks

Mobs

[runic zephyr]

are there 2 different blight currency chests?

this seems a lot more red-ish than the normal currency icon

[patent canyon]

thats because its inside hentai goo

[faint parrot]

Oh poe hentai

My dreams are coming true

[opal sierra]

My Nightmares!

[digital brook]

Different maps have different light settings

[runic zephyr]

whats the maximum multiplier a blight portal can have?

i just had an encounter with only one portal that was x7

was right next to the core too, much fun x)

[acoustic lark]

do you keep links if you use an ancient orb?

[royal gale]

you do not

@acoustic lark

[fervent path]

what are anoint items?

[violet nymph]

ignore the fact that i was building a fire tower on a fire immune portal (didnt realzie until it was too late) but this fucking UI, i legit clicked it 4 times and nothing happens https://streamable.com/1fxip

[torpid sonnet]

Fire enemies arent immune to fire towers btw, they just take less damage from them

[violet nymph]

and in my defense there was a non fire portal there as well but still this UI feels so clunky imo

don't get me wrong though i'm actually starting to love this league mechanic

and just as i write that i get a tower that is behind a wall so i can't use a minion tower

i love this league but man it needs some polishing

ok now the game is just trying to piss me off, some loot dropped behind a wall so i have to run all this way to get it

[celest atlas]

anyone know if there is a trick on how to activate a JUN Master Prophecies .. or do i just have to run a lot of maps to get it .. how is it different than before ...

now i even got a niko mission on a random map but still not jun

[neon pollen]

Should i Alch blight maps?

Do rewards actually change?

Or just TEAL white quant?

what's the best strat for blighted maps currently?

[runic zephyr]

did they buff blight map drop chance? lol

[neon pollen]

What r u running flying blightmaps or high tier maps¡?

[torpid sonnet]

alchs are so cheap that unless you are struggling to complete blight maps you should definitley alch them

[sterile stag]

Hmm, is there a link where I can find the mechanics behind the towers? Like the amplification towers and such?

[open stratus]

blight ring enchant suggestions?

[hollow crag]

http://puu.sh/En2yq/6315e9dce8.jpg

fun

[sand meadow]

Whats a good & cheap anoint for blighted maps?

[gray zealot]

teal or green?

[sand meadow]

I'm thinking 2 Amber + 1 Sepia o-o

[torpid sonnet]

teal is cheap and makes the rewards worth more

if you arent struggling to complete blighted maps Its the best choice as far as cheap oils go

[sand meadow]

triple teal?

I kind of like the cheap towers though

anw, Whats up with these?

They were all like this throughout the map and i had a hard time managing

[sand meadow]

Ooooh

naruhodo!

wait

but im the party's leader

he's the opener though

[sand meadow]

❤

[orchid cosmos]

has map drop rate from bosses been fixed?

[vast gazelle]

in retrospect

maybe i should be using soul of abberath for burning ground blights

[timber owl]

Hey guys I have a question! Anyone running blighted maps back to back for profit? I have and I have been profiting nicely on yellow blighted maps (all oiled of course). Wanted to see if anyone was having the same experience as I was.

[fallen tulip]

which oils are you using

[timber owl]

teals

they seem to be the most cost effective

[topaz ginkgo]

Is there any way to juice up blighted maps besides oils, chisels, and alch/chaos?

[patent canyon]

nope

[slender temple]

Can you vaal a blighted map?

[patent canyon]

only not oiled one

so technically no

[slender temple]

Weird

So of it's oiled you can't corrupt. That's like opposite of corruption I like it

[worthy turtle]

when you alch the blighted map, do the quantity and quality make any difference to the loot?
I know certain oils have a great benefit. but what about the map mods?
nemesis, bloodlines, beyond etc.

[karmic root]

looking for advice on blighted maps. i can clear normal t9 maps no problem, but t2/3 blighted maps are wrecking me because bosses get through. golem build. what should i be doing with towers? how can i tell if i have "enough" damage?

also yeah the question above - should i be quality-ing and alching blight maps for more loot? will the mods actually effect monsters? i tried running one without mods and it seemed just as hard

[worthy turtle]

got an answer on forums. quantity and quality don't affect chests, which the blight loot comes from.
the only thing it can affect is the loot explosion from the pump. which isn't very much anyway compared to the chests.
so I guess, alch, and aim for easier, non boss, no increase movespeed rolls etc.

[deft girder]

beyond is a nice mod to get if you doing most of the killing.

I think GGG made towers kills unable to spawn beyond.

[oblique horizon]

does lions roar (and knockback in general) help with blights?

[patent canyon]

in a way, yes

phys portal mobs are immune to knockbacks tho

[frank sage]

has anyone tested the poet's pen/necro build for blight maps ? heard some were doing blighted maps without moving with this build

[timber owl]

yup im doing that now

you have to move sometimes to get into the proximity shields lol

[frank sage]

how does it work ? desecrate and volatile dead if i'm not wrong ?

just checked on poe.ninja, seems like a cheap build

[timber owl]

1st pen you put desecrate + spell cascade

2nd pen you put volatile dead+ spell cascade

• concentrated effect

u need to go necro and get lots of attack speed

you can get a glove and use the insanity essence to get the % mroe attack and cast speed modifier

you put frenzy in there to proc the VD

[frank sage]

never played necro / minions build and spells, sry for asking

will try it out, seems pretty cheap and fun

thx for the answer

[timber owl]

no problem let me know if you have any other questions

[past badger]

Hmmm, i heard pp build and got all hyped

[timber owl]

poets pen is back baby

[frank sage]

quick buy 2 PP before Mathil makes a builds with it

[timber owl]

i doubt he would haha

[frank sage]

price for PP has fallen quite a lot since last week

haven't seen anyone popular on YT talking about PP Necro

[timber owl]

none of the big names

streamers are doing it

I happened to catch it with this stand alone streamer guy

check out Lord of Golems on youtube. His variant has the most dmg I believe

[quaint hemlock]

what's the best map anointment to use?

[timber owl]

teal

[quaint hemlock]

crimson would be better then?

[timber owl]

yea but its like 6c ea

[quaint hemlock]

it's t15

I have em on hand

[timber owl]

even for t15

[quaint hemlock]

even got 30 quality lol

[timber owl]

people have tested teal and crimsons on red maps

[quaint hemlock]

a blighted map costs 120c

[timber owl]

teal was more cost effective

[quaint hemlock]

I'm comfortable spending 18c to enhance it's outcome

[timber owl]

i would still use em if u have them tho

i understand

however in the long run

i believe you would lose money

[quaint hemlock]

yeah I'm not farming them

[timber owl]

i use teals on t6 blighted maps

[quaint hemlock]

just taking advantage of the 30q from betrayal

do sextants work?

[timber owl]

i dont profit consistently on red maps

nope

[quaint hemlock]

so other than rolling the map there's nothing to boost it correct?

[timber owl]

correct

you can rol beyond on it

for a bit more exp

[quaint hemlock]

good suggestion thanks

[timber owl]

u got it

[oblique horizon]

@patent canyon ok thanks for the tip. i'll just bolster the towers at phys portals then

[cyan jungle]

enfeeble, armor, and physical damage reduction. anyone know what order they go in?

i have the physical damage reductions down

i think

so say Damage 17067

reduced by enfeeble, then armor, then damage reductions

[gritty ember]

enfeeble is an effect on the enemy so its before any of your calcs

but overall yeah looks like your order is right

https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Receiving_damage btw

oh that was a while ago lol @cyan jungle

[wary island]

question - do imbueing/smothering towers count as empowering?

[silver kettle]

@wary island not for ring anoints no

[golden rover]

can you corrupt a blighted map?

[deft girder]

I wonder if I should anoint two 20% faster action speed temporal towers. Its around 2.5 ex though.

I don't benefit from cast or attack speed but action does work.

[wary smelt]

not worth

[sacred gate]

I got a Blight unique monster whose icon on the minimap was red. What does that mean, compared to yellow ones?

[vale marsh]

They seem to do a lot more damage to the pump

When I got one, it instantly destroyed my pump, but that could have been the 5 rares from the other lane

[vast gazelle]

probably a boss?

[sacred gate]

Hmm, ok.

[small mirage]

do buff towers retain their tower buffing effect when you upgrade to their specialized forms

or is it replaced

[vast gazelle]

replaced

so keep em at 3 if you want the tower buff

[small mirage]

and does the player buff apply to minions

[topaz imp]

the blight boss markers are red now

rather than yellow

[small mirage]

yes

[worthy turtle]

nice changes to the boss marker. makes it easier to see

just ran 13 x t12's
cost me 60c each map.
4 chisel, alch, 3 teal oils and go.

excluding anything that can be sold.. regular currency, essence, etc, run results are pretty sweet.
run 1 = 132c
run 2 = 83c
run 3 = 182c
run 4 = 261c
run 5 = 193c
run 6 = 187c
run 7 = 177c
run 8 = 105c
run 9 = 170c
run 10 = 186c
run 11 = 139c
run 12 = 178c
run 13 = 13c

run 13 = 213*

[vast gazelle]

Hmm might look into grinding some blighted maps then

[past badger]

woah, that is serious good profit

[raw nymph]

inflated economy there on leage

[obtuse tiger]

guys i just bought an amulet with Tribal Fury Anointment, but it tells me that it is unallocated. How do I make it work?

[topaz imp]

run t13s instead of t12s

t13 for gold oils

[worthy turtle]

thought golden oils drop from t11 onwards?

found 3 running t15's before the prices went up

[topaz imp]

i was told it was t13s onwards

[silver kettle]

It is. Silver is 11

[worthy turtle]

cool. I'll finish running what I have so, maybe 20 maps, then move up to t13's

still happy with the returns on t12's though. can't fault the profits!

[worthy turtle]

so finished the 26 runs.
all in all, just hard currency, it cost me 1778c @60c per map + 3 teal oils, 1 alch, 4 chisel.
just currency returns, 4120c. (value of all cards, essences, currency tab, scarabs, sacrifice fragments etc etc).

didn't count the 1ex that dropped, nor any unid's.

took me just under 4 hours to run.
so about 3ex profit an hour.

not too shabby. didn't get many good drops, 1 silver oil. 1 level 2 20% enlighten. 1 tabula.

[zenith warren]

How did you annoint your stuff?

Maps i mean

[worthy turtle]

3 teals

[jovial drum]

what does that yield ?

[worthy turtle]

6 blight chests are lucky

meaning, better chance for them to be currency, essence, div cards, etc etc than just the useless armor/weapon ones.

you could run crimson oil for more than 6 to be lucky, but it's not as cost effective as teal oils.

and silver for the extreme

there's a good detail of info on the wiki here on what oils to do maps.
https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Oil

[worn totem]

does anyone have issues with blight maps crashing in groups?

[low kindle]

Do you run blighted maps white btw?

[livid lake]

why would you?

[dreamy carbon]

To answer someone earlier who didn't get a real answer, all blight bosses appear red now, to highlight them since the most recent patch

[deft girder]

I want to run double fireball nova tower.

The question is can it crash blighted map from the lag.

[low kindle]

@livid lake because loot comes from chests, which are not affected by quant I think?

[midnight phoenix]

Not affected by player quant

As opposed to map quant

[abstract blade]

Are blight unique mobs based off tile set like rates and if so is there a list of where to find them

[quiet geyser]

How good are necros for t15 blighted maps?

[mortal yarrow]

Necros are good for anything

[slender temple]

Until next league . Max 1 minion per char

Server relaxation league

[amber surge]

can you still divine an amulet after it's been anointed?

[daring herald]

yes

[worthy turtle]

so does map quant affect the amount/quality of loot from chests then? as player quant/quality affects loot from monsters only

[royal gale]

yes

[topaz imp]

hmm

weird how golden oils have gone up in price because of the bug but not settled back down now that they're removing items

[slender temple]

#freeeconomythings

[placid grotto]

They're removing them? Did they announce that

[next epoch]

@placid grotto Quietly, but yes -- https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/dd5hzb/-/f2fe14x/?context=3

"We fixed the bug yesterday and are preparing to delete the bugged items..."

[timber owl]

hi guys ive been doing the exact same method with t6 blighted maps and have been profiting similarly

percentage wise

[acoustic lark]

how do i get uber elder to spawn? just do the guardian?

[low kindle]

What does your zana quest say?

Oh you haven't collected memory fragments

So to spawn Uber elder you need to do your zana quest of killing shaper

Guardian maps should be covered by shaper influence when elder influence is on t15

[acoustic lark]

so uh what's the change to the mastermind mission?

[patent canyon]

poor guy, i wonder if support would help to remove the anoint before item goes puff

[livid lake]

intentionally using an exploit to make an item, expecting GGG to be nice, lul

[low kindle]

They should go the troll way and give it a mod which raises the strength requirement by 10000

[livid lake]

lol make it unsuable, yes, i prefer this way

[runic zephyr]

did they ever mention if they gonna do anything about the fireball hell that some blight encounters are?

[slender temple]

Does prox shield block fireballs

[patent canyon]

prox shield blocks every projectile

[royal gale]

except some

cause its weird

[patent canyon]

well for something like ed the proj still does 0 damage

but it does apply dot

[royal gale]

yeah same with soulrend

[somber torrent]

Would be nice to be able to build at least 1 tower on a blighted map when you got 6 different paths.

jesus this league sucks

[dreamy carbon]

I'm having no problems with it

[worthy turtle]

i love this league

[topaz imp]

yeah i'm not having any trouble with blight maps tower placements

i prefer the in then out strategy so all of your towers are closer to the middle vs putting them out at the portal locations

[low kindle]

proxy shield blocks any damage which is sourced from outside the shield

doesnt block ground dots, bane, soulrend

[jovial drum]

Yo did they remove blighted maps from the drop tables? I haven't found one in a week

[wide totem]

Same, done hundreds of maps but not a single drop.

[jovial drum]

has any one had a blight map drop in the last week or so?

raise your hand lol

[royal trellis]

with slayer 2h cyclon i can do a t4 blight? lvl 89 xD

me @jovial drum

t8 and t4

[vast gazelle]

I have

T9

[vast gazelle]

also dropped off a blighted map

top rolled cospri

[violet nymph]

top roll 8 aps:DS

[vast gazelle]

sorry, almost top rolls*

the flat cold rolls are the important ones

similar listed just around that price range

so if it doesnt sell at 3 il drop to 2.5

[violet nymph]

no

search aps coc

in google

[vast gazelle]

i did

ones with high rolls on the flat damage + low AS go for 2-3ex

[violet nymph]

[vast gazelle]

someone trying to sell a cospris corrupted to RT tho

for 2ex

[gloomy cosmos]

How do i get lightning exposure on myself

for the vaal omnitech challenge

[thorny vortex]

i forget exactly, but would guess the room that augments omnitect with lightning? or maybe one of the tempests, tho im not sure

[toxic swan]

should I chisel blight maps?

if I'm only really interested in the chests will the chisels do anything for them?

[deft girder]

@toxic swan Chisel only applies to the loot explosion. Chisel are basically free though.

[oblique horizon]

@gloomy cosmos you don't need the lightning augment room. Just get hit by the blue lightning wave to get lightning exposure.

[wet plaza]

untick shocked in the config page

[patent canyon]

if you tick shocked it applied 50% shock regardless if you can apply it

[languid path]

that's literally what shock does, increase dmg taken

the magnitude depends on the dmg of the hit, up to a max of 50%

it's not as simple as just an "upgrade"

[wintry flint]

shock is just one source of additional damage

as a burn or fire focused build, its probably easier to scale your damage by raising your fire damage

well, like I said

shock is just 1 source of damage

on a burning damage build, shock wont be as strong as it is on pob, or as easy to access

path of exile rewards you more for focusing on boosting the damage of a single skill to its max potential, while only taking the more convenient sources of extra damage

yep, it scales

shock is the status ailment thats inheritly linked with lightning damage

you can only inflict it with lighting damage generally

yeah, im kind of trying to explain to you

thats not really how poe works

"rotations" arent really a thing

you would much much rather hit a guy twice with your souped up fire spell then try to shock someone then burn them

yeah im not talking about pob

[patent canyon]

Bosses are harder to shock

shaper needs a hit of around 50k to apply 1% shock

and hit has to be pure lightning too

[wintry flint]

The magnitude of a shock is determined by how much lightning damage you deal to the target when you hit them and successfully inflict a shock, based off a % of max hp

[patent canyon]

https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Shock

[wintry flint]

if you dont deal a big lightning hit and have some amount of increased shock effect, your shock is going to be rather weak

[patent canyon]

to put it in short way, if you are not elementalist you are not shocking anything and can forget it

[wet plaza]

well, skitters do, shock on focus too

[merry token]

Do you guys know if anointments stack? As example meteor tower extra projectile 2 times?

[patent canyon]

yes

[violet nymph]

I got both scout tower damage anoints

Though I'm thinking about getting flamethrower hits fire monsters and flamethrower damage

[last fjord]

is there any other website or tool that can show you all the oil combinations you have available besides the one in pins? I remember finding one some time ago but I didnt save the link

[topaz imp]

wiki

[wintry flint]

also, https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2628299

not really a tool, but more of a list

[last fjord]

ye that was the one i was looking for ty

[raw nymph]

is league still dead?

[runic zephyr]

does muscle empowering tower also increase the speed of minions and totems?

[frank hound]

I think it only affects towers in range...or maybe it was the other way around

maybe it was just player and not towers

one or the other

[thorny vortex]

i believe they only affect the player, not the player's minions. totems...im not sure; considering they inherit (some) stats from the player i would hazard to guess that they do get buffed in some way

[torpid sonnet]

Totems attack/cast spells using the players stats, so modifiers to player stats will definitely affect them

[river veldt]

Awwww, no special achievement for defeating a blight while dead?

[digital brook]

How would hardcore people complete it? 😂

[river veldt]

Well, it'd be the last thing they have to do. 😉

[rain needle]

@severe shell dret

[cold bridge]

some of the blight bosses in t13+ maps pretty beefy yeah, not just me?

i just had 3 come at me and couldn't handle them

[vast gazelle]

yeah they have pretty inflated HP

especially on a more monster HP map

[raw nymph]

just exploit them with ice shot + pierce + glacial cage

[wary smelt]

or just do 10mil dps and kill em

[quick raven]

Yeah they have an f ton of hp, and god forbid you rolled monster endurance charge on hit or something

I’m actually rerolling maps this league that have too many monster tankiness mods, its pretty funny

[raw nymph]

10 mil dps?

with glacial cage you are doing hundreds of million

say you have 8 pierce + return, min 16 hits with 10 arrows, 160 hits per shot

we are are talking potentially billions of dps

and all AOE damage that is targetted

you could just as easily kill 1 boss in a second or 10

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2645828/

ggg seems to not care because nobody has been doing it, even though it was made known to them in the first week or so

appearntly it's intended

they don't care about it

[vast gazelle]

@abstract cipher oh man that thrwos me back

I remember making people rage and stealing all the damage using mag when people thought she was bad

Meanwhile top dps even before the damage steal

[gloomy bay]

I got my Legion sextant challenge somehow by running a sextant’d map with a Legion scarab.

Might be a bug

[midnight phoenix]

Its been like this all league

[topaz linden]

What's the proper way to run blight maps for profit?

[patent canyon]

chis alch oil go

[topaz linden]

most efficient tier?

[spice cipher]

T13+ for gold oils

[topaz linden]

thank you

[deft girder]

Does temporal tower action speed stack?

I mean the anniot ring.

[worthy turtle]

I believe so yes. However, I've not tested that one. but the other ones do stack. scout tower damage, flamethrower damage etc.

[gritty basin]

So I didn't see it in the Wiki... do we know how the blight chests work? Specifically, do they act like a strongbox or like a kill? Because if they're a strongbox, then they should have a more or less predetermined drop table... but if they act like a kill, then IIR and IIQ should affect them, right?

Or am I totally off-base

[midnight phoenix]

Player IIR IIQ no worky

[gritty basin]

Ah, RIP

[violet nymph]

what are blight pustules?

[low kindle]

Reward chests

[violet nymph]

could you be more specific please

[severe grove]

Is there something specific you're trying to figure out?

[low kindle]

You do a blight encounter, you get chests with rewards

They are called blight pustules

🤷

[gloomy cosmos]

use blight oil on blight unique item

do the rings not count?

[patent canyon]

there are no blight unique rings

[lucid stone]

It means things like the gloves and boots

[worthy turtle]

blighted Map drops now drop at a minimum tier based on the tier of the Map that you are currently in.

ABOUT DAMN TIME

[jolly tinsel]

Any tips on avoiding being instagibbed by fireballs?

Besides "dont get hit"

[worthy turtle]

dont run nemesis mod on blight maps

[wary smelt]

well guess i can start playing POE again

[deft girder]

Wait so if i run T16 and a blighted map drop, its T16?

[silver kettle]

T16s are red maps, so you'd get a T11-15 blighted map drop

[slender temple]

@patent canyon there are blight unique rings

https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Blight_league

[silver kettle]

They aren't the Blight uniques referred to in the challenge, annoyingly

It specifically means the armour pieces

[slender temple]

Yeah that sucks

[sturdy plover]

what ring anoints do people use?

[fast spoke]

@sturdy plover https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2659360

[deft girder]

Meteor Tower Additional Meteor
Meteor Tower Stun
Its quite a busted combo. I had one doing 25% of boss hp in T16.

[slender temple]

I just use basic towers then I stand near a buff tower in the middle and hold down RMB on my auto desecrate volatile dead setup

[mild belfry]

Glacial Trap and Temp Chains tower is pretty much all you need to stop bosses.

or just 1 tier 3 minions xd

[topaz linden]

What's the most efficient oil to use on a blight map? I currently go with teal/crimson

[silver kettle]

Triple teal seems to be what most people are doing

[topaz linden]

thank

[analog atlas]

how rare are blight uniques?

and where I can get them - blighted maps, any blight encounters?

[vernal linden]

@analog atlas you get them from blight encounters, yeah

they aren't super rare, but not really common either

I'd say like about divine orb rarity

[analog atlas]

hmm... didn't got any at lvl 95 yet, luck I guess, haha

[topaz imp]

it took me 196 maps to collect all of them

i had several of the other pieces before i hit the sporeguard

[past summit]

Dudes, i need to use Golden and Silver oils for challenge, but kinda don't want to waste it just for it.
Is there any amulet that will sell — with any anointment to use them?

[low kindle]

Just anoint constitution on smth

Like xoph's

[vast gazelle]

^ can probably flip for a decent profit

Or a generically good fire anoint on xoph

Etc

[topaz imp]

buy an astramentis

[compact elm]

So, what's a good use for the dozens of extra low-tier oils one accumulates?

[gloomy bay]

Upgrade them three for one of the next tier

I usually do it when I have 30 of a low tier oil

[vast gazelle]

Do it up to teal to use anointing blight maps

Teal*

[half ember]

does the health of the pump affect drops? like if I have 1 health vs finishing with full health?

[quaint halo]

No

[leaden bane]

Yes

More health less drops

[chilly gust]

can totem builds afk blight?

[silver kettle]

Besides resummoning your totems from time to time, sure

[tidal minnow]

the rare monster challenge is a pain in the ass, any other tipps than running Feast mod maps and blighted maps of the needed layout? :"D

¯_(ツ)_/¯

[slender temple]

When you have auto vd and God tier aurabot helping

No need for towers except empower

[spice cipher]

that looks melty

[tidal minnow]

i opened the picture and my pc grunted disapprovingly to this heresy

[slender temple]

@spice cipher yeah I've crashed a number of times. But my aurabot buffs are so strong that her unlinked pet jewels she has for harrying enemies can clear maps they just don't go three screens away like vd does

Has happened on a boss before I thought damn aurabot is toast. Nope

Boss died instead

[spice cipher]

damn thats crazy

[slender temple]

Scion necromancer+guardian

Every aura gives 2%. Speed boost

Also victarios and 60% discipline belt

I think she gives you 2k es

You become a tank

Iirc it's 12 auras . + Temp chains aura and 10 pets

+40 vaal skel on bosses

Guardian makes all charges shared and you have permanent onslaught

She's running +3 precision too soon. Will be level 24 precision hehebebebebenw

[topaz imp]

you dont need towers with most summon setups

[slender temple]

Im trying now tho for that stupid achievement

Will take a few hundred maps. Np maybe I'll get to level 100

[runic zephyr]

am i the only one who is mega pissed at how shitty blight is in a party

why tf cant you build towers when cassia is not near you because she only follows one person

[slender temple]

That does suck

[past epoch]

How's the state of the game? I hadn't had the time to dip into Blight, and i'm wondering if i should just wait on 3.9

I hear the performance by blight mechanic is insane

and its time consuming?

it looks like legion on steroids + tower defense

[patent canyon]

wait for 3.9

[fallen tulip]

try the tower defense shit if you want to try a minion build

if you want to play melee or smth wait for 3.9

[past epoch]

Thanks. I'll wait then.

[small mirage]

melee is still plenty strong

[uneven falcon]

So like, so far my experience with blight has been meh

[small mirage]

Thx for the constructive input

[celest hound]

Does anyone know at what level blights start to spawn rare mobs?

[small mirage]

Very early

[celest hound]

I am attempting to target farm the bone rhoa and it will spawn in blights in Ledge, but no rare yet.

[small mirage]

Uh

I'm pretty sure blight mob spawns are entirely random

[celest hound]

I have heard that, but experimenting on a new character doesn't seem to be the case

[small mirage]

And an act 1 area is a pretty terrible place to farm anything

[celest hound]

Well, it literally never spawns on my map runner after 500+ blights, so I'm trying anything I can do.

Whereas on a brand new character, I have seen them twice now just moving up to Ledge.

[small mirage]

Uh

So if you've found some what's the problem

[celest hound]

None have spawned rare.

For the challenge.

[small mirage]

Oh right

Well ledge isn't the only spot in the game they can spawn is it

?

[celest hound]

No, but testing this out, it looks like blight mobs that can spawn are random from within the set of mobs you have encountered so far. I'm getting all goats, spiders, and rhoas of various types in Ledge, and that matches. Nothing higher than that.

So I am hoping that Ledge good enough to produce a rare at some point

[topaz imp]

why not just run low tier blighed maps instead

[raw nymph]

Gosh it is hard to play blight, feels like working a bad job

[bright kayak]

should you corrupt blighted maps?

[silver kettle]

You can't

[runic zephyr]

how valuable are blight uniques? i dont think ive ever found one, and it sounds like they would be very nice for the bonus annoint

sounds like you can do a lot of stat stacking with multiple blight uniques?

though the stats of the uniques themself seem to suck pretty hard

[topaz imp]

all are practically crap aside from sporeguard

and that's only because it's rare

[frosty aurora]

damn you need to specifically include golden oil to get te 35% blight chests additional reward

[indigo sluice]

@frosty aurora ye you knock out 2 challenges at once

use golden oil one and map oil one

for the low low price of 1 exalt!

that is it a boss doesnt spawn next to your pump and destroy it

[frosty aurora]

yeet

[plucky lichen]

top 3 towers?

[spice cipher]

fire, buff, ice imo

temp replaces ice when i need more range

[celest atlas]

do the buff stack ? e.g. if you got another tower with 2 buff in range?

[deft girder]

@celest atlas Nope

Only the strongest will apply.

[celest atlas]

so ifi had 2 i could do one to buff the tower and the other to buff my minions

[deft girder]

Yeah those are technically different towers so they should work but I don't remember if they apply to minions.

Also the tower buffing tower will buff the player buff tower.

[celest atlas]

ah yeah only buff players

[vital kite]

With the "Your Temporal Towers have 25% increased Effect" enchant on both rings, and some nice temporal chains, can you get monsters to freeze entirely

[low kindle]

Unless the map has cannot be slowed

Temp and chill towers stack btw

[topaz imp]

ice fire and scout towers are the most broken imo

stun from meteor on ring is insane + scout has insane ST

[cold bridge]

hi, what impact is the map quantity and pack size stat having on blighted maps? and also i'm assuming the blight mobs get all the map modifiers right?

[topaz imp]

blighted mobs get the map modifiers

some of the modifiers don't apply because blighted maps don't function like normal maps

but stuff that just affects mods does

such as reflect/life/movement speed etc

and the quantity (from my understanding) only affects the loot explosion from the blight in the middle itself

while you can do blighted maps without improving them from my personal experience I have only ever gotten blighted uniques from the explosions

not from the chests

so it's worth to alch anyway imo

[stone kraken]

hi, anyone know how-where i can find beacon of inevability uniq boss? / edit: find it in belfry blighted map

[analog kelp]

https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Aukuna's_Will
https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Corpse_Pact
So, do this two things give zombies 50% inc life?

I guess it should but pob doesnt count it and i dont see any instability zombie builds with this two

[slender temple]

Question: Ring enchant is only for map starter right?

[eager charm]

@analog kelp it works. The reason no one uses it? cause it works aka DD also applies to zombies cause of those gloves

[next epoch]

⬆ Meaning that a Putrifying strongbox ("Detonates nearby Corpses") will usually kill you

[gloomy bay]

You could just slap Infernal Legion on them as well and they’ll be walking bombs

[patent canyon]

boss will spawn from this portal

on the right one mobs are resistant to fire

minimap or look under portal i guess

[low kindle]

They usually follow the order either clockwise or counterclockwise

On minimap

[honest fjord]

Just out of interest is it worth using oils on blighted maps? if it is which oils are worth putting on them? never done a blighted map before and thinking of doing this T4 I managed to get

[small mirage]

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/List_of_anointments&ved=2ahUKEwjP2Mj3xaHlAhWQSsAKHX8hA7kQFjACegQIAhAB&usg=AOvVaw2IgWQhb5GllDXYq8YVSurS

Weird link but there you go

[lofty turtle]

@honest fjord cant speak for others but I've done ~50 blighted maps now and I just spam teal on all maps. The returns appear to be pretty good

i only run T13+ tho

I heard people spamming crimson as well

I dont like buying oils tho since it's time consuming and teal is easy to self sustain

But for a T4, don't use anything too expensive, so I'd just put 3 teals on it

[honest fjord]

@lofty turtle Alright mate thanks, I guess teals it is then

[gloomy bay]

Tried using Crimsons (3 lucky chests) for red tiers and couldn’t really sustain them; would also second Teal

[clever pivot]

Is there an easier way than just RNG to find blight maps?

[patent canyon]

buy them

[untold quail]

Do minions spawned from the Blight node benefit from your auras?

[serene summit]

Up to how many lanes can you get in blight? Max I've seen is 4.

[silver kettle]

8 is the max outside of blighted maps, which have 20

@serene summit

The number of lanes you get seems to be a bit tier dependent

[small mirage]

Very much so

[slender temple]

Bought tons of t16 haven't seen a eight lane have three left gonna pray to RNGesus all day

So when I get back I don't have to drop a few more ex on maps

I'll probably have to buy twenty more maps then I'll get it on first try

[small mirage]

Damn

I've had tons of 8 lanes in t15s and t16s

Haven't even run that many high tier maps

[slender temple]

ok so i ran 15 t16 maps

got it on my very last one

i was so excited id idnt build any towers until the end

when one of hte enemies got stuck

i was like oh i have some points to spend

[runic zephyr]

is there any way to make blight maps more profitable except qual, mods, annoint and sextants?

[slender temple]

do more of them ;o

[small mirage]

that wont make them more profitable

and also thats all the methods im aware of

high tier blight maps just arent very profitable, if at all, unless you get lucky

[deft girder]

Whats the most single lane multiplier you seen? I saw 7x.

[slender temple]

I've seen x6 only usually when it spawns on top of the pump

[celest atlas]

if i mainly use Meteor tower and glaicer .... should i reather keep the Empowering Tower III to boost my Meteor ... or would it still be better to upgrade to Smothering ( weaking the enemy) !? I also got 2x Meteor Bonus in my rings ..

so maybe buffing the meteor tower might still be the better option

[slender temple]

if you can afford it

get temp chains aura goin

dunno how you do it tho

i solo the blights

i dont use the towers

i just use empower tower

and i pop alot of chill and ston towers to slow things down a bit

[faint nymph]

Hi, are you able to annoint corrupted amulets?

[lone ingot]

if i have lord of the dead node on tree and i try to annoint an item to lord of the dead would it work?

do both apply?

[copper kernel]

no

[celest atlas]

@violet nymph yepp, thats that i was thinking having 3-4 Meteor next to an empower might profit more from the empower than the T4 weakening - that that i try tro play mostly .. if i dsont get sidetracked and up one by accident . might still have 2 empower one at T3 and another one at T4 for the full power of the force .-)

[lament timber]

anyone know what map to look for "beacon of inevitability" unique blight monster?

[slender temple]

@lament timber don't think it matters

[fallow pine]

So do t4 empowers also have the t3 effect or not

[compact junco]

nope

[cold bridge]

will the map mod action speed cannot be modified beyond base value negate the freeze/temporal towers?

[fallow pine]

damn t4 towers suck

[slender temple]

I use the player buff tower

And pres g for atlas then start vd spamming

[orchid swift]

theres no way to craft a blighted map right?

[silver kettle]

in the sense of making a non-blighted map blighted? no

[orchid swift]

what exactly does the transfiguration of body from tenacity do?

like if i have ~100% increased max life from tree, i get 100% attack damage?

well, at 30% efficiency

[low kindle]

30% attack damage

Also it's not only from tree

[plucky lichen]

is it worth to alch blighted map if i dont have any blight challenges ?

[patent canyon]

you always alch all maps

[slender temple]

more quant

also do your chiseling when map is white.

more quality boosts quant up significantly once you alch

white chiseling = 5% per chisel

[bold pollen]

question, for the sake of the "Spend Blight Resources" challenge, if you are in somebody else's map in party and they spend resources on towers do you get credit as well? or only if you build them?

[bold pollen]

nevermind, answered my own question. both party members get full credit no matter who builds

[slender temple]

yeah was like the first major patch i blight

guess they figured it was a bit douchey to force some kind of round robin on building . doesnt foster team play

they shoulda done that for chest opening too

[cobalt falcon]

Vendor map recipe 3 to 1 next tier applied to blight map?

[hexed crown]

best build for only blight?

[runic zephyr]

everything that can offscreen and is fast, ive had lots of success with any bow class and divine ire totems

[hexed crown]

Bow or necromancer?

[runic zephyr]

deadeye and hierophant

[slender temple]

@Killua#5733 try it you can see what vendor will offer before hitting accept

[nova cave]

have you guys been running all blight encounters? or only running the ones in red maps?

for me ive been skipping the white and yellow maps because they always yield nothing good for me

[autumn snow]

@nova cave white/yellow encounters are bad

only worth (if you are mapping fast) to do t13+ encounters

[nova cave]

tahts what i thought

[slender temple]

Im doing yellow blights in regular maps atm gotten up to opalescent oils from them hah never silver or gold tho

I did a test a while ago

50 maps netted me 700c approx of net profit

Regular maps doing cassia

With two chars

Don't think quant helps tho

[low kindle]

Silver oils drop from t11 and above golden from t13 and above

[velvet palm]

I've been running nothing but t14 maps and haven't gotten anything above opalescent

[umbral cairn]

my played time this league is 13 days 8 hours and i've only seen one golden oil. Still.. I wanted a mirror anyway

[vernal knot]

lol mirrors take a lonnnnng time for natural drop

but u have hh u can reach

[plucky lichen]

whats a good t15+ blighted map to do?

[plucky lichen]

whats best oils to annoint for blight maps?

[zenith warren]

3 * teal

Best efficiency

And the best t15 blight map is that one, where you like the layout the most, aka what your build like the most

Cant say something general about that

[zenith warren]

Guess i will try,as soon as i can play again, 10 blighted triple silver/gold/teal maps and will then look, what does bring more, and them continue running that

[velvet palm]

WhAt maP TO shApe

[zenith warren]

The one you like

[runic zephyr]

great to see they "fixed" the thing where portals spawn too close to the pump, how the fuck do you defend that when a boss spawns there?

[robust ferry]

Well one didn’t lol

[coarse totem]

Just kill them as they spawn npnp

[mortal yarrow]

@runic zephyr by damaging it

[nova cave]

Yeah quant doesn't work for chests iirc

[cursive crest]

whats a good loot-highlighter?

[patent canyon]

https://www.filterblade.xyz

[runic zephyr]

so does blight map iiq affect the chests or not

[mortal yarrow]

No

[runic zephyr]

blight chest is out of reach because a tower is in the way. im dying

[slender temple]

Try exiting and returning or press z twice idk

Kick it

[severe grove]

When the cyst gets the best of you

[runic zephyr]

just dropped 2 blight maps from one encounter pog

[serene summit]

how random is the chance for a blight map drop? haven't gotten one yet

[slender temple]

They are rare

I see one every 20-30 cassias

[runic zephyr]

i got 4 blight maps in red maps today

did about 40 cassias

*5, just dropped a t2 blight map lol

[slender temple]

Not bad

I have like 14 in my stash

Made two t15 ones into ,30%. From syndicate hehebe

[plucky lichen]

Do quantity affect blight chests?

[slender temple]

i think map quanttiy does

[vast gazelle]

Map quant does not

[violet nymph]

Oof

So violet oil on blighted maps is useless?

[vast gazelle]

it affects the lootsplosion from the pump

thats about it

so not useless useless

but not good

[slender temple]

I've done like 400-500 of 50-120 quant regular cassias and gotten 1 exalt from the pump loot explosion. And 2 from blight chests

[midnight phoenix]

Hey violet oil is good for memes

[vast gazelle]

owo

[timber owl]

im bored af sittin on hh and like 100ex. I haven't played in weeks. what do now? anyone wanna do somethin

[vernal knot]

ayy ur at the fun part of PoE

making some cast on ignite builds

moar meme builds

[violet nymph]

quantity doesn't apply to blighted chest iirc

so there's no point in stacking it

imo triple crimson oil is best

or silver if you feel like using mirror fossils

[plucky lichen]

so that means theres no need to make blight maps rare?

[vast gazelle]

not really, not unless you're hyper minmaxing and dont care about mods i guess

no reason not to but its worth avoiding mods that make it especially difficult to clear (MS mods, cannot be slowed ones, etc.)

[plucky lichen]

but quant doesnt affect blight chests right?

[vast gazelle]

not chests, but it does affect the pump loot

so it does do a bit

[plucky lichen]

so i guess normal is better

[past pond]

is there some sort of guide on how to handle t13+ blighted maps? I feel like im using the wrong tower combos and I almost always end up having to run up and down and manually clear all lanes and I dont have a single second to spare to build towers. I end up having tens of thousands of resources while getting overwhelmed by monsters and losing

[steady fern]

build faster?

[past pond]

thanks

i think i got this now

[silver kettle]

@violet nymph @plucky lichen @vast gazelle player iiq doesn't apply to chests, but map iiq does

Making blighted maps rare is pretty important

[vast gazelle]

oh wait really?

huh

carry on then

[viral bramble]

Buts it's more important to complete the mao so make sure u don't get any kinda dangerous mods

[slender temple]

Do sextants affect them ?

Just wondered

[cobalt falcon]

Not atlas map, so they not affected

[serene summit]

Is the anoitnent of that blight chests are lucky a good anoitment to run on blighted maps?

[spice cipher]

The best

[plucky lichen]

whats better better x3 black oil or x3 teal?

[spice cipher]

Teal is more sustainable

[vernal knot]

blight sextants would be crazyyyy

[violet nymph]

3x crimson is my favorite personally

Or 3x violet

[vernal knot]

3 gold

[low kindle]

Good oils are garbage

[zenith warren]

3 teal and go

[low kindle]

3 crimson for high tier

[runic zephyr]

tier 4 buff towers dont buff other towers anymore right?

[candid cargo]

How long left on the league guys? Haven't played this league yet, been wrapped up in wow classic :p

[patent canyon]

you have another month for wow

[candid cargo]

Nah end game lacks any real content, very stale very quick so gunna come back to poe and try a golemancer build or something

[vernal knot]

wut

hh is fun for end game

try the t15 blight maps

[candid cargo]

@vernal knot no no, you misunderstood me, WoW has lack of end game content 😛 poe end game content is great!

[vernal knot]

oh :p

PoE end game is fun until ur like 4th league lol

[timber owl]

anyone doing the fractured triple gold oil farming

[candid cargo]

i dunno man, i still think its fun now, so much replay value, and if you get bored with maps you can go delve, get bored with that you can go do the current league mechanic or breaches etc etc 1k+ hours and im still not bored of poe 😛

[low kindle]

Not sure about triple gold, but triple silver probably

[tulip vector]

if i have the helmet which gives extra anointments can i have a totla of 3 anoints?

[velvet palm]

you can get more with more blight uniques

[low kindle]

In total you can theoretically wear 6 anoints

[bitter holly]

hello

[lucid stone]

What build would use 6 anoints

And the associated armours

[vast gazelle]

2 are tower anoints, no?

but still

every build has 4 notables that are out of reach but good

oh duh

amulet, helm, chest, gloves, boots

is there a ring or weapon that can be anointed with nontower stuff?

[slender temple]

No rings and don't think there are blight weapons

The blight hats are double enchantablr tho

[vast gazelle]

oh wait

hurr

thatd be 6

[slender temple]

Problem is hat slot has alot of really nice unwiques to pick from that aren't the blight uniques

[vast gazelle]

yeah, and with that many uniques in general we're lookin at some mighty spicy resistance requirements

other than that, probably some kinda chaos hit scaling build

or something that can leverage sporeguard pops

[slender temple]

Hmm

[vast gazelle]

and the buffs from breathstealer

[slender temple]

Wander and ponder build ?

[vast gazelle]

maybe yeah

something like that, maybe DIre

a friend said sporeguard was pretty lit there

its no eshroud but its solid

[bright cloud]

unique boss affixed on a blighted map, affects the bosses from the portals?

like this : https://i.imgur.com/0NlXI4Q.png

[uncut zephyr]

yes

[wintry aspen]

do green buff towers that buff players buff green towers that buff players
