What 8 drops lmao
I got about 6 or so on average from those from the league start
Do you meticulously write down every literal drop compared to area mods?
i was paying attention to it pretty thoroughly
You really think it took 2 days for them to turn off alert on killing things? No that time was spent "rebalancing" the loot and not mentioning it
Whats your sample size
and my exilence nexxt has been recording it
are u actually arguing this
every single person i play with
have you been running white/blue contracts or alching them?
is saying the same thing
This is some high grade tinfoil shit

then explain how I managed to get 28 catalysts from one heist
on top of about 10c or so worth of other currency?
Mhm because they 100% didnt do this with harvest and then later call it a "bug" and they definitely didnt do it with delirium while disguising it as a"buff"
I'll believe you once you bring some real statistical evidence
if you've really been recording it, how about you track all the drops prepatch and postpatch?
go on, I'll wait
Are you just completely blanking out harvest where they "buffed" seed drops and then all of a sudden we couldn't find any of the crafts that were actually worth a damn
and then 2 weeks later said it was a "bug"
"tarlomToday at 11:07 PM
I'll believe you once you bring some real statistical evidence"
this is the most creinge shit
how oblivious are u
every SINGLe person i play with that plays hard
says the same thing
the small chests drop jack squat now
they ruined the mehcanic
Youre still yet to provide any proof besides muh friends
sounds like confirmation bias to me tbh, especially with how absolutely ridiculous your claims of how drops were before the patch
I definitely feel like the loot per chest has been reduced.
Loot per heist is probably about the same.
1 chaos per box and 2 exalt shards every other box, yeah, sure, let me have someone of what you're smoking please
Or how with delirium they changed the drops from a single item which you could get to like 8. And it was practically gauranteed to give high quality shit. Then they changed it to the 5-3-1 calling it a "buff" but the quality of all the drops plummeted and actually hitting 5-3-1 was like twice as hard
the small bronze chests
more than half of them are just like 4 rare pieces of gear that no one care sabout now
my exilence next chaso per hour
has gone from
20-30
to
5
"exilence next"?
found a second le huep
also, are you kidding me? I've make twice consistently that in the past 3 hours from heists
are they common now? lol
heist loot ruined
did they say when they are going to fix grand heist doors
dude if you were only getting 20-30 chaos per hour before the patch, you were already doing things wrong
I just got 10c of a white heist (dropped corrupted), opened every single small and big chest, took less than 5 minutes. and that's less than what I've been averaging lately
one persons experience doesnt reflect the game i guess
What's the max level that an accomplice's skill can hit?
its different for each rogue
you can see visually in game when its capped though - it will say next level 0 xp
Can alternate quality gems become vaal skills, i.e anomalous vaal reave?
i think Isla has two main skills capping at 5 and Huck has no main skill(but i'm not sure)
Isla goes 5/4, noone can get 2 level 5 skills
Huck goes 3/3/3/3
Actually, vinderi can go 5/5/2
@pseudo hull whoo boy they really nerfed the drops of heist huh didn't they buddy?
can't believe I'm only getting ~10 chaos for every 5 minute heist map
alert can also be generated by this weird motion sensor? ish thing, on some tilesets
I mean really, how dare GGG lower the profit from your quoted 30c/hr to only 120c/hr, amirite?
is this guy still really going off
sir ur using the same logic u were accusing me of using
not quite, I'm actually providing evidence. but as they say... if you can't beat 'em, join 'em
I mean, obviously you don't understand actual statistics, so I figure provable anecdotal evidence would work better on a mind like that ¯_(ツ)_/¯
i do understand statistics better than u
i run a stats site
rofl
i ddont feel the need to go through the labor
i'm just trying to have fun playing a game
and not having fun cuz the drops were clearly lowered
based on how it was feeling before
ooo
a guy trying to earn validation by sayin he runs a stats site
and then sayin "on how it was feeling before"
big oof
Le sigh.
decided to do a grand heist. the door at the end is just stuck closed, won't open.
this league could be fun if things just worked 😦
i thought they fixed knockback
im still glitching mobs into the wall
with blast rain
that just killed it for me. maybe in a month it will all be sorted out.
did they fix abyss not finishing
maybe they should consider doing public tests if they're going to get extra creative.
^
it could help smooth the transitions
knocking mobs into walls is a serious bug to have several years into a game existing
that's collision detection/resolution
yes, it spoils the league a bit, but might be worth it now and then
people are goin crazy over lockpicking contract
currency chests right ?
yeah
yeah, and trying to get karst to lvl 5 asap
it's like 7-9c per
i might making money more buy selling these contract haha
7-9c is conservative tbh I think
gotta do lockpicking to get the dolars
how you get that many ?
that one I posted up a little bit ago was a lockpicking one, and that came out to about 15-20c or so
lockpicking is like the one the still gives money
what about delve chest and stuff ?
yeah but the currency will out money the other chest
juiced mapping probably still much better currency
demolition is still great too, and engineering if you get map chests
heist drops so much random shit every run i spend so mcuh time emptying my quad tab
Is there a consensus on which rogues and contracts are the best to run?
karst/nenet/tullina
are the big 3 rogues
Lockpicking is definitely the most popular contract currently
Is the chest rewards tied to the Rogues or the Heist layout/rogue requirement?
how do you unlock/get the item for new inventory slot?
Get a grand heist which drops the trinket is how I got it
grand heist.... lmao i still havent done one
because they are all bugged
cant open the damn doors >.>
I ran a couple safely, but YMMV
They were level 30 tho LOL. I kept postponing because of bugs
Do incubators drop their items as contraband when you're in a heist?
Is the "Tasteful" prefix just a mod that does nothing?
There was some mods that don't show up on description.
most are quantity
So wait why there are like 50 different new categories of items
Or is it just the 3 item slots on rogue for gear - tool - cloak
- brooch; 4 slots
and there's multiple different items which can go in each slot
and also trinkets
dunno haven't unlocked trinket slot yet
I guess I haven't yet gotten one
done 3 grand heists and quite a lot of contracts
what's the best agent to level up first
lockpicker maybe
If a heist equipment has like 20% melee damage, is that only for that heist member or for us too?
I've got a question about heists... Should we be just running them like blighted maps (White)?
All their loot is from boxes
You shouldnt do heist for now
this is a blueprint
with alternative quality gems
bugged door on both wings
nothing wrong with doing contracts
but yeah, save the grand heists/blueprints till they fix the two main bugs with em
Look at me, I get blue prints
not that I know of
I'm level 78 with 0 blue prints
idk i fukin love the mechanic i would just play this for over a month
but with those bug i wanna actually quit
wah
i agree but this is stupid isnt it?
Is the "#% for Regal Orbs to drop as Exalted Orbs" the best trinket mod?
I'm pretty sure that's not true
Ah.. gran heist is so rewarding, sad cant do it
one of my heist members seems to have just... vanished?
so its now incompletable
they're still using dialogue lines
they just don't actually exist
Where's the cheatsheet for Heist?
am i just special or is killing stuff still raising the alarm level?
is there a specific heist type for scarabs?
https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/ixi8r4/heist_perk_reward_npc_cheatsheet/
its not on the cheatsheet
nice, so the shotgun door camper, still havent been fixed, greatxD
im still getting swamred by the ones behind doors if i run them alched. dont know about you:D
i had one alched heist where like 95% of the mobs on the way out were behind one door
if theres any there.. half the time is like 3 mobs behind a door
fucking empty all the way to the last door
big vinderi buff tbh
then it depends on the contract location
i ran one alched mob lvl 75 records office crontract. and yep a dozen rare mobs behind door and shotgun. nicexD
i wouldnt worry too much if it was just one contract
i do think if i run the location alched again, it will be the same. i mean it was the same before patch and they said it should have been reduced. but at the doors i diddnt noticed any difference:D
so i ran a records office
literally 0 locked doors on the way out and i just ran straight out without slowing down at all
i did one too and i had two doors with a bunch of em and some with just a few. ok idk, may it now really depends on how mutch juice the alched one gets
wew, lightning floor trap in high level heists is instant death
it does at least 25k damage i think lol
was wondering if that scaled with level, sometimes it pops me sometimes i can just run right across it
Cant finish a heist because
it doesnt show the option to use my units
.
on a locked door
yeah, it did my whole life (4400) with capped res
so its at least around 20k
but i also had a guard skill up lol
so that may or may not absorb some of it (if its considered a hit)
@proven hamlet usually thats fixed by running a screen or two away from the door and going back to it
ah
i just left the heist
yeah the last door breaks sometimes
yeah the last door breaks sometimes thanks no rewards spent all my coins yaaaay fuckjdijsdifnsd
hey bright side, regular heists are piss easy to do now so you get your coins back in no time
can someone explain why i'm still able to roll this
because it was a hotfix and they havent gotten around to redoing all of the modifiers
probably going to take some time
that replica earandals is weird
it wants you to spam raise zombie, basically
since they die in 3.5 seconds
unless it works like RF and they can mitigate through resistance
It's supposed to have good synergy with Aukuna's Will and minion instability
the mod is disabled as in it has no effect, not as in you can't roll it
and yeah, it's likely they'll remove those mods with the next actual patch, or replace them with something else depending how they modify the league mechanic
@livid pecan you WANT the skellies to die
you do some shenanigans to make their death do shit tons of damage
it's clunky, but it melts stuff
@velvet palm replica version is zombies
gonna be clunky without aukuna gloves
Not running grands
also helps farming with double marker drops trinket
got a heist chest that seems to be impossible to open?
Does it make any sense to transmute / alch contracts?
yo guys im missing nenet she is not still in my crew any ideas why is this?
wait if killing no longer increases then theres 0 stealth elements left
whats even the point
did they really ruin the main mechanic of a league bc some ppl complained hard enough
goddamit
oh wait i think they are going to make the alert system slightly more complex later or something
Doesn't Tulina give Nenet, run some missions with her
like enemies actually having to manually ring some kind of alarm
which is still dum but not as dum
If you Take Videri you cannot Take all chests
You absolutely still need - alert perks or in the longer Layouts you will Run into issues
issues such as "not able to take 100% of the chests during the run" lul
it does feel dum dum
what exactly is the mechanic behind salvo + fork?
@jovial sail thanks ill riun with tulina
Is there any rule how to unlock the last 2 heist follower?
Newest mechanic is: "if you have good loot we will dc you and you will loose everything"
I keep hearing this same argument, that Heist is now just a loot collection side area, but you could fill my inventory with mirrors and it would not matter if I get plastered trying to get out. I have no idea what OP build you all are running that makes getting out as simple as getting in.
How do you unlock more rogues? I've done all the green heists
@celest hound just dont finish the heist
get all the chests and leave
dont finish the contract
izi
I guess that's an option, but not really in blueprints.
Not sure if this is a bug or not, got a item that can be equipped by Adiyah, can she be unlocked as a character?
Hey guys are those "Contracts" That seem to be quest items necessary to progress on Heist? I didn't get them on my second character which was also on a different league
Not sure if I should report it as a bug
Is there any way to fix grand heist reward room doors from not being able to be opened? the rogue ability was used and the door is still shut and wont show any prompts to open it again
is there any way to farm the quest contracts or to know how many you are missing?
Do I lose my grand heist portal if I leave to deposit loot?
@brazen pulsar so technically you can leave, BUT theres a very high chance of being put if a different Harbor instance that doesnt have your portal. If you rejoin it enough and get back into your original instance you can reenter
so I want a vaal discipline gem. can I just pick up a level 1 discipline gem use a vaal orb on it and level it up afterwards?
yes but its not 100% chance to turn it into vaal
stuck behind door AMA
i once clipped through a door in lab with lw on accident
i wonder if it works in heist
Cogblitz, can still use the gemcutter recipe on it once it reaches level 20 as a vaal gem for the 20% quality?
No
not on corrupted gems, no
You dont need quality on your auras anyways unless you're a support or summoner
awkwardly laughs in summoner
10% more valuable unique items trinket is so fucking op 😄
got carcass jack and hyrri ire zodiac armor like 5 minutes
i mean heist chest have a 10% chance to contain more valuable uniques
Does the amount of chests you open in a heist affect the difficulty of the escape?
i thought everyone hated running vaults of atziri
I still run it but just because I've had decent luck with it
Must be why the rest of the league hasn't given me anything at all
guys, if I die during heist, does the portal despawn?
can I enter again my current heist?
Not if alert isnt triggered
ok, I killed all guards but then died but my portal is still there
if I take the main obj do I have to clear the area in 20 seconds?
I mean escape
20 seconds is for lockdown, they lock doors after 20 seconds
but you can escape anyways, just dont die
Can you heist with friends at lower levels, or does it have to be grand heists?
Sometimes I hate Reddit. I must be the only one that thought that Heists were fine,especially once you got follower equipment. Now the whole "heist" Feeling is gone, you can just loot everything. Reddit turned the new league into just another "go in and click every reward" mechanic
Reddit Driven Development at its finest. Turn every interested but not the most efficient mechanic into most efficient mechanic that is also boring as hell.
All that by complaining like a 5 year old for few days after league start.
IMO PoE is at its core an ARPG - you kill so you can kill more. Heist's idea of sneaking around defeats that purpose.
I do feel like it got trivialized to the point of no risk/all reward
Hey guys I just crashed in my first ever contract and it was a Green one aka mission one.
Can you still drop the same contract???
People are claiming it forever bricks on your character forcing you to create a 2nd character just to get the specific contract to drop again. Is this true?
I guess you dont have to
I bungled a contract for karst once, then after a while it drops again
the contract where you take his lockpicks
im using the same char btw
@azure atlas yeah, at this point if we died after the alert level rises, we lost all progress and items
better if we have multiple attempts, like portals
i'm wondering why they bothered giving us another two level five contacts
that are dupes in a existing job.
Is there a specific way to unlock more thief people? I'm missing 3. Luckily I have all my bases covered for specialties
I think it is using the ones you havent used on heist yet, and maybe more specific in role you havent used before.
X2
which you will then use that friend after that to unlock the next
😦
ugh my dudes arent bringing any new dudes
i hope they learn and do a synthesis 2.0
Nenet is unlocked by bringing tullina along iirc
because synthesis strongest point was its more then just fighting enemies
Niles is unlocked by bringing huck along
My unlock order was Karst ->Huck ->Niles ->Vinderi ->Gianna if I remember correctly.
and then tibbs ->Tullina ->Nenet
Does anyone know if unique boxes have been fixed/removed from lowlevel contracts (lvl 3)? and at what level unique boxes spawn in a heist?
i ran two lvl 3 engineering yesterday no unique box behind the door, just nothing so i gave up
how do you get your trinket slot unlocked?
Is there a grand conclusion to heist story?
the end bosses aren't in yet
man getting 1 shot in heists all the time feels really bad 😦
should i be using an alchemy on every contract
@faint pebble Iwonder what its like having never built defenses
if you can survive the additional mods on the monsters and have the alchemies to spare, then yes
oh you mean like capped res and as much life as I could have grabbed?
this is like the people were saying herophant should wear cloak of defiance
That's not defenses
your not actually getting one shot in heist.
right
*Multiple layers of defenses. Both Cloak of Defiance and Fortify is one but standalone they are worthless.
anyone know the fix when a Heist mission doesn't complete and the item stays in your inventory and cannot be dropped?
the npc still has ! over their heads
Drop the item in a map and keep playing until you find the contract again
Wait, you have the contracts too?
They are green and have the NPCs name on it. Can't be deposited.
yeah best in slot chest peices should be fully defensive imo
If you do then you have to run that Contract with the item in your inventory.
yes i have the contracts still
armor/es hases are wprthless sadly 😦
Doing that will complete the quest.
because ggg refuses to rework armor
Reworking it is a massive hassle. I wouldn't be surprised if something is done about it in PoE2
Yeah armor got to the point its functional by itself It's just mixing with others they need to fix now so its not that big of priority
evasion/es mixing though
🙂
give me some of that
Does Whakano ever sell contracts above level 67
No
lol cool
that would defeat the purpose
well thats cool, 6s/5l shavs from heist
Hey guys how do i get more heist rogues still need one who can open deception doors got these so far: karst, tibbs, tullina, nenet,huck and isla.
so +1 level does not raise skill level
but the actual level of the character
which is super worthless lol
thats pretty sexy
but the +1 level (general) has got to be the second most trash mod
right behind -% alert from killing guards (now) lol
they actually deal fairly sizable dmg
as they are always area lvl
also they deal dmg when performing their door actions, like tibbs
might matter if you are low on the damage side of things?
its a bad stat, much worse than many other stats, but its far from useless
it can go to +5 i think?
that would be much better
i have only rolled +1s lol
i feel like all you want is -alert, high level auras, maybe - cost, and probably the "allies inflict x increased blah blah blah"
i like 'players and their minions deal x to x increased phys'
yeah, basically any aura effect
especially since grand heists let you run around with potentially like 9 aura effects
How do I unlock the heist item that my character can equip? (the one myself i mean)
do a blueprint that says it contrains thief trinkets
the recipe to open the slot on ur character is in the last room
ah I see, dont have any of those still, mabye the one my game crashed was the one
i have yet to find one of those lol
also my thief trinket slot on my character vanished XD
so if my portal to the grand heist is gone, is there anything I can do to make it come back?
keep leaving and going back into rogue harbor via spending tokens
your heist is still there, you are just in the wrong instance
known bug they are trying to fix atm
how do you enchant body armors guys
u cant, its dropped from heist
then how are people getting enchanted lorewaves
wait what
So is there really no way to leave and bank from grand heists ?
can someone explain the passive that gives curses have +4 doom
is that to initial? or per second?
initial
is the normal initial zero?
either way that seems like not enough to make a difference with anything?
man, floor traps have got to go
there is no way to get through some doors when the mage dudes set up like 30 of them
thus why im not heisting till they fix it lol the traps are ridic, had an entire room covered , no where to walk or dash without triggering them
The net traps?
oh, im still running, super profitable even with the high rips
nah, the ones that are blue spell circles
i think its in the mansion?
the lightning mages cast them
sometimes they set up like 30 of them on the doorway lol
so even if you dash through they all go off and you rip
i think you might be okay with a teleport skill
all the traps, net ones lightning ones all of them
net ones can at least be disabled
not if your npc bugs out lol
im just having a lot of buggy issues atm so rather wait
yeah, there are some serious bugs
but some enemies leave floor traps (mechanical spiders and lightning mages)
some of my friends are fine tho so its hit n miss i guess
the spider ones can be waited out, but happen when you kill them, so its super rippy
the lightning mage ones place circles on the floor that you can just ignore
but when escaping, sometimes they pile a ton of them up on a doorway
oh those spiders suck ass
yeah, the lightning mages are basically the same, except they do it in advance
and they have an infinite duration
you just gonna stand there?
can I leave grand heists inbetween wings?
you're supposed to be able to but there's a bug that places you in a different instance of the harbor, and if that happens you lose your portal
so, no, don't risk it
ty
yes, that is a known bug
welp rip grand heist
i would recommend just not doing grand heists at all right now
LOL
POOR GUY
Also map achievement on heist seems bugged too
Same as some encounters
I want my huck helmet
😭
how do you get reveals?
by doing normal heists
I wonder what they are gonna add to pre-alarm part of heist more exciting, what do you guys think they could do?
Anyone else not dropping blueprints at all ?
interesting
hello guys i have this and unlock 7 watchstones already and still can't get the contract quest to drop to finish the quest (i failed the quest before)
Has the alert been changed again?
I was in a standard Heist watching my alert bar slowly increase when i wasnt moving / opening any chests / killing anything - i didnt see a more recent update, so sorry if this is already covered somewhere!?
jmpuLz, there are some mods on either heist map or on trinkets that does increase alert every # seconds.. Just check closer on both of them before running
i see, thanks @craggy cedar - you are right, i didnt check beforehand, just transmute & go... 🙂
np dude, if speed isnt ur problems then u dont need to worry about it.. I did run a map with that mod on, just had to be even more faster 😂
@rigid idol Go into any non-town area (the delve lobby works fine) and drop the item there
You can pick it back up from Tully when you find the contract again
Also, the contracts drop from the heist chests. Make sure you're opening those when you find them
they are super rare rn tho
@next epoch tysm
these heist changes suck
i think its pure rng
RNG, typically from the little heist chests in world/map areas in my experience
i realy dont like this alert level change
i can basically loot/kill everything and still the alert wont trigger
its now just a linear map where you have to backtrack to your entrance portal
i'd rather have them fix the bug where the thief refuses to unlock the door and just spazzes out
eh previous option was not better, kite monsters in a circle while npc open doors
they should just rework the first part of heists
yeah like patrols with like detection circles
like the one in the robot one
the floaty droid thingie that turns the robots online
or like bells/alarms that mobs need to go to and use to raise the alert level, and if you aggro guards you have to kill them before they can activate it
Okay so. I am in grand heist, full inventory. 2 wings left. What to do?
it was boring before, it's boring now
the entire part before you grab the relic is just poorly conceived in general
I am once again asking if the grand heist doors are fixed
They never were broken for me
How do you generate reveals? It seems like I'm meeting the conditions but not generating any reveals for Gianna
is it worth it to alch contracts?
seems like 99% of loot is from chests, but I don't know how they are affected by the rolls
yes alch them
how can i lvl up a companion past lvl3? only with grand heists?
This should be posted in the cheat sheet channel xd
ok so lets say tullina agility can be lvl 5, so i just do more lvl3 contracts for her an she gets exp torwards lvl5
completing heists of that type levels that skill yes
pretty big jump in exp needed to hit 5 I think
I feel like a better way of representing the combination of skills and NPCs would be a grid
since right now every chart I've seen makes it difficult to see at a glance either 1) who has skill X or 2) what skills does person Y have and what are their limits
For unlocking new members does a specific person unlock a new one or can I just keep running random heists?
It's specific people.
Is there a list/guide somewhere?
another infographic for heist NPC skills
Is gianna bugged for anyone else? Just did like 10 contracts on her and didnt get a single reveal
structure worth noting: there is exactly one NPC with a 5 in each skill, and every NPC is a 5 in one skill except Vinderi who gets two because he's awesome and Huck who has none because he sucks
Worth
and a 6l oro's sacrifice lol
win for this grand heist
gloves that can ignite with chaos damage
an ex
a 6l oro's
i feel like the ignite w/ chaos damage gloves could make a fun af build
just confirming.. if you leave an INCOMPLETE heist with contraband loot.. you keep it, right?
yes
my first Ex drop of league and im just not willing to risk it.. lol
Smart choice. Just bank it. The heist target isn't worth it and chances on getting anything better is low
omg some guys are caped at 3 that explain so much
yep
you don't need to abandon the heist to keep the loot, as soon as you're back in the lobby the Contraband tag is removed
if the lockdown hasn't started you can then go back in and continue getting more contraband loot, and still keep the stuff that had the tag removed if you die/fail
whats the point of revealing more wings in a blueprint rather than just running another blueprint?
like if i have a bunch of blueprints should i just run them with 1 wing revealed?
ideally you'd be able to stash between wings and thus get more overall loot from a single blueprint (which drop rarely enough as it is) but the portal is glitched or something right now I think
what's the quickest way to pick up quest contracts once i'm in maps?
so i guess for now unless oyure short on blueprints you should just chain run them?
unrevealed
depending on the contents of the wings it's definitely still worth revealing them imo
anything that has a currency, catalyst, map, delirium, or fragment room would be well worth it
@still coral the portal bug should be fixed in 3.12.2
Fixed a bug where, when returning to The Rogue Harbour from a Heist area, you could be placed in a Rogue Harbour instance that did not contain the portal to your Heist area.
-- https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2945868
ooh, I hadn't seen that post yet. that sounds great
oh boy, i love it when i run into 3 door packs at once with undying.
this just got posted like 20 minutes ago
@weak jetty also in the patch notes preview, fwiw:
Monsters in formations during Heists now stagger the timing of their attacks, such that they're not all using their attacks at the same time.
Anyone know where tailoring orbs drop?
Are they grand heist only?
And if so what kind of reward?
I'd assume that tailoring/tempering orbs and both types of regrading lenses are most likely a single category of rare grand heist rewards - though if that is the case I don't know what that category is
either that, or a rare curio option for the grand heist categories of enchanted weapons/armors and alt-quality gems
Fixed a bug where some Grand Heists could not be completed.
what in perception does trigger increase in alert level?
literally got it to almost full before reached first big chest
Is the final door to every grand heist bugged or is it only certain locations?
tailoring orbs?
supposedly it only happens in some cases where there's a door that needs to be opened with Engineering but the grant heist didn't have an engineer on the requirements?
I'll need to double check and be careful, I found a nice blueprint, investigated all the wings and after I hired my crew I had spent about 10k marks and every single door was busted
so I had a total of 3 wings - I've run 2, and after that I could no longer see the other entrances
is that normal?
did you use an alternate escape route out of the second one?
I've noticed that the alternate escape route room is different than the lobby, and usually drops you right on the next wing's entrance when you enter it
yes
ok so I've portal'd in and out of harbour until the portal reappeared
when I went back, I could see all entrances again 😛
I have some trinkets (?) (items that 'any heist member can equip') but I canot figure out a way to give them to a hesit member/make them equip it. Where is the UI for this?
talk to them "equip items"
or hit V while in rogue harbour
"Show Inventory" from their talk menu
where is 'their talk menu' ?
when you click on them to talk to them in the harbour? like any NPC?
I can't find it on poedb, but is there a list of enchantments heist equipment can have some where?
if you have the same rogue in two different slots in a blueprint does his bonus double?
Are you guys completing contracts or just looting all chests and escaping?
completing if possible, depends on what chests spawn
if I can open more chests if it means losing out on completing the contract I generally do that
yep same
usually I can complete the contract with all chests opened, or with missing 1-2 small chests
is it repository?
huh? repository?
That's the only one that's bugged atm I think
Will be fixed with this upcoming patch
Yeah
Question: if I have a engineer equipment that gives me +2 to levels and equip it to vinderi, does that give him +2 to the demolition he runs as well?
No; it gives +2 to their actual level, not skill level
so like if you go into a lvl 60 heist, they'll be lvl 62 instead of 60
it's a small combat boost, basically
im trying to decide if blood rage is worth using at all 
seems like it would be good... but idk
4% life damage per second sucks
can some1 explain me what the fuck is wrong with this league?
im doing grand heist, oppening like 6/7 stashes and gettin 30% alert
then i run through of rest and it randomly increased to 90%
without opening anything
there are some traps/npcs that raise alert if you stand near/on them
I think the records office has Observer Posts, IIRC?
it's not the standard zoom zoom kill everything mechanic; if you play it like it is, you won't do as well 🤷
they said that from the outset
first wing reward lost due to bugged last doors, second wing reward lost due to random 60% alert jump xD
more bugs
faster at their skill (except agility, apparently?), more effective rogue passive/perk/thing
not sure if the higher level requirement gives better drops or not
I have lvl 5 lockpicker but still
I find that if I kill one of the big dog (greatboy i think), it'll raise the alert up as well
'Fixed a bug where, when returning to The Rogue Harbour from a Heist area, you could be placed in a Rogue Harbour instance that did not contain the portal to your Heist area.'
ey fellas
@still mural Ty for clearing that up about the +levels mod
rewards thing is possibly a buff (adding more types to Deception & Brute Force) and possibly a nerf (adding more types to Currency)
the lvl 68+ only changes are definitely a reason to run your <68 contracts now
Breach, Harbinger, Delirium and Legion rewards now require level 68 or higher before they can be found as Chest Rewards.
lvl 67 be like all talismans
feelsbadman
RIP
cant wait for the patch
these floor traps suck lol
even with the money being good, i hate dashing through the door and 100-0 instantly even with super tank
I mean. maybe don't dash into traps, lol
lol
yeah we'll have to see the new reward
seem like we still can just leave with all our loot without trigger the alarm
there isnt any way around them, Sora
its the mansion lightning traps cast by the mages at the doorway
just get max block, max spellblock, and a 20% chance to recharge 60% of your EHP a second when you block and the floor traps and lasers are no problem
they have an infinite duration
so you eventually have to try and cross lol
and atm the will all cast them at the same time so depending on how the alert guage was, there are like 20+ traps right at the door lol
(that is why they are nerfing them though)
Ahh, I see
I thought you were talking about the trapped hallways that need trap disarming 😄
oh, nope, those are easy
yeah, the lightning mages who lay these spell circle things are fuckers lol
I cannot find the Deception NPC for Heist, I can't do ANY mission because I havent found the NPC, how do I do it? I'm level 81 and have done like 40 contracts and got nothing
you get new rogues by running missions with your rogues (the ones who haven't already given you a new rogue)
specifically skill level 1 missions, I think
and the tileset may matter as well; not sure
gotcha
IIRC I got Gianna (the main deception rogue) from running with Vinderi
Niles is the other deception rogue, and I forget who I got him from... Huck, maybe?
roger, ty
Nice, just did my first grand heist and didn't get squat. I finished the first wing and dropped my stuff off in the main area and went to the next wing and my alarm level went up without me opening anything so I had to escape. And it put me in a different area and I couldn't go to the 3rd wing.
you may have stepped on an alarm trap, or stood near an alarm NPC (there's Observation Posts in bunker/records office, IIRC, which boost alarm by a lot if you stand near them for long)
yeah, they look like shockwave totems?
Yeah
So you're just supposed to run and kill quickly then huh
That's so dumb, why wouldn't you be able to kill them
You can kill the observation posts, they're just tanky
haven't encountered the others yet so idk about them
but with as tanky as they were when I saw them, it's definitely easier/better to just run through that room real fast once you notice they're there
Yeah I'm using splitting steel and it wouldn't target them
yeah, the observation ones you need to get close to to target them, for w/e reason
the shockwave ones im not sure why, some i can target, others i cant
And still dumb that it put me in a different area and so lost out on my 3rd wing, though I know they are fixing that in the next patch
yeah, that's maddening
and a good reason to not do your grand heists until they fix it
Yeah I have a 2nd grand heist but it's for repository and I know that map is fucked too
But I wanted to try this one in case they change how the alarms work again since it's all basically like free stuff
Halfway tempted to buy one for a few c, but not sure if I can afford another grand heist lol
you can press alt while hovering over the blueprint to see what reward rooms could be revealed, fwiw
So you go just for the final items then Eternal?
And I reveled the treasure rooms before and there were like 2 big chests in each room, there's no way I could open them all without setting off the alarm lol
a 6l oro's sacrifice in a safe lol
the unique new item for the player
or unique new slot, trinket, thingy
Yeah, i got that
also got this cool belt
wish it had more +life but it does a great job keeping me alive
How much is it to reveal the wings? Like 2k each right?
it varies, but something like that, yeah
but yeah, open all the small chests everywhere
and then only worry about large currency/div chests
and then final rooms
What type of location would you suggest me to try?
I'm not doing smugglers den again or repository lol
is this where I report bugs lol?
honestly, any location is as good as the next i find
nah, do /bugreport (I think? or just /bug) and then take a screenshot and post it in the bug report forums
eh?
What the end items are
oh, like on a blueprint, gotcha
Is there a way to see what the rooms are via poe trade by chance?
are heist spectre viable ? when yes wich one ?
Heist spectres aren't raiseable yet.
drat, did my first GH that had pure crap rewards
Does anyone know how to deal with Observer Totems in Perception jobs? They're usually in tiny corridors so running past them fills like 30% of alert bar, even when phasing... I tried killing them but totems and Hexblast don't mesh well together
Theyre not attackable
If you run past them they generate less alert lvl
Havent seen any way to avoid it
Yep you can kill them but while doing so 4 other totems are raising alert, so it's not really viable either
the lockpicking mini nerf is only after patch is deployed right
Oooh, my repository grand heist has 3 currency rooms
what mini-nerf? @quaint echo
if I want to make sure I dont lose my items, do I need to completely leave the heist? or just go back to the starting room?
starting room, assuming you're not hardcore
how do you get something with "deception" skill for heist?
So how do you deal with the totems that raise alert level super fast? Just run past them and hope they don't "see" you more than 3 times as you run by?
pretty much, yeah @main epoch
contracts have random skills associated with them, so just get more contracts, from drops, smuggler's caches, or buy em from Whakano at the harbor @shell turtle
when doing a grand heist, do i have to reveal item rooms to make them accessible? to be able to loot them?
yes
even when i win, i cant help but think the eternal lab is pure cancer
with curse rework does this mean i can put hex + mark on a single enemy or still limited to 1?
Marks are still curses, there is just a distinction between the two now for other purposes
So still limited to 1 (plus extra curse items/passives)
anybody knows why my heist members are stuck at level 3?
for their skills
some are stuck at level 2
@signal imp each rogue has their skills capped at different levels; only one of their skills can go all the way to 5
see the image in #guides-archive
Is there a reason I cannot break this curio display?
the glass cracks then unable to click anymore
Anyone able to provide an answer before I have to just give up on this map
never seen that... will it refuse to break if you don't have the space to pick up the artifact maybe?
anybody know whats the thing that lets us get 40% quality gems?
@eager terrace I made sure there was space, but the relic drops on the ground after breaking anyways so I do not see why It should matter about invenotyr
dunno mate never had it happen
does somebody know what the quest heists are for. the green ones
they dont have good loot or anything
story, rogue xp, and probably progress towards the heist bosses but I'm not certain on that
with the latest changes to grand heists, can you no longer leave to stash between wings?
i failed one of my isla green contracts can i farm the contract anywhere or in specific level zones?
they just drop from the smuggler's caches regardless of zone
Currently you can, but there's a bug where it may send you to a different instance of the harbor, which means your portal to go back in won't be there; you can try leaving and re-entering to get back into your instance
@worthy nimbus
the next patch planned should fix that bug, though, and you'll be able to leave & re-enter grand heists without a problem
do specific types of blueprints offer specific end rewards?
i havent seen any alternate gems yet
Ye they do
It says on the blueprint what they reward in the end
anyone can give me a tip, to not get oneshot at doors when the alarm went off?
7k hp, 50% phys reduction. 1.5k life regen chieftain
If you got event one link over, use the new void sphere spell. It saves me a lot in My poison bv
once they activate im dead. and before activation i cant attack them , even with void sphere
@polar marlin put a totem in the door to bait their shots before going through
works every time for me
let me know how it goes. you may have to wait for the door to fully open and place it a bit past the door way into the other room
idk i just throw my ancestral warchief. to soak/bait the original 40 shots at once attack. then dash through them unscathed
oh wow
nice that they fixed the "YOU HAVE BEEN DISCONNECTED" while doing heists
oh they didn't that's right
the only time I ever try to do a heist I get fucking disconnected
holy shit!
good boi 🙂
you may be able to spectre him in the next patch
it's a unique enemy
oh true
not a boss though
there's the small ones though
that's probably the largest none boss enemy in the game, and on a large scale of bosses
quick question. Many of my heist members have reached levels 2 and 3 but aren't getting any more xp and is at 100% xp for their current level. why is this?
What is Ring's Cut ?
I have a question abouts reveales for grand heists: how do i get them? i have done 60+ contracts the last to days and both the barber and the interrogator have 0.
@fallow veldt My guess is the "Ring" is the masterminds behind discovering the heist location, figuring out the inside and outside, what kind of threat level you are dealing with and putting it all down on paper, thus forming the contract you see on the scroll or contract. The people you hire are simply people experienced with the task that the "Ring" has discovered is inside the heist location
Planned robberies take a lot of effort, you need experienced people to go undercover, hack in and do all sorts of things without getting caught so that the info can be brought to the criminals attention so that they can form a planned heist. this means a great cut will likely go to those people who did all the behind the scenes stuff. Smaller groups or the heist members can do the same thing but with lesser success and more risk
But yeah, i don't know all this for a fact, it is only an assumption from limited exposure during games and youtube
So more rings = better heist ?
does n e one know if replica items will work with being a part of recipe crafting?
When you are too strong and he jumps into the water😆
do rogues npc lvl up beyond lvl2, or the only way to go further are items? with possibly max lvl 5?
PoEDB provides new things come out each league, as well as unreleased skills or MTX, as all of the information is directly datamined from the game itself.
short answer yes, but some have skills capped at lvl 2
if you have the same rogue in 2 slots in a grand heist does his bonus double?
Anyone know the drop rate for blueprints? I'm at endgame mapping, have been actively heisting, and I've only found one.y fiance same thing and he only found two
if you have the same rogue in 2 slots in a grand heist does his bonus double?
@distant osprey in my experience no, they don't stack. Each wing is like it's own incursion. You enter one wing, do it, get to an extraction point that's connected to another wing, and when you enter the second (or subsequent) wing they "next 3 members" are there.
Does the rarity of the heist contracts affect the drop rate of the chests? e.g blue or rare with mods
Or do you guys only run them white?
is grand heist still bug?
Does the rarity of the heist contracts affect the drop rate of the chests? e.g blue or rare with mods
@lunar knoll I've noticed a difference in quality of drops running magic/rare over vanilla. Much like regually mapping. I don't run them on white unless it's the same lvl as me. Getting one shotted with a good haul is soul crushing.
Okay thanks
Yea I'll look up bugs when I get to work. I'm Suuuuper disappointed that 1) caches have not been on every instance in the acts, and I have yet to see one on a map 2) blueprints are impossible to find.
I know there was a small patch to fix the Stash location in Rouge's Harbor, but didn't read it
I'm wondering if it's a issue like harvest with drop rates. They had to fix the seed bug twice and it wasn't til second patch that it was truly fixed 🙄
ffs why cant i open grand heist final doors
they keep bugging out. super fucking frustrating
Caches arent really important overall
Blueprints are rare, not impossible to find tbh.
Caches arent really important overall
@copper kernel fair. I've found stuff from monster drops and opening chests, but I don't want to open every chest and kill every monster to find smth on a map
Blueprints are rare, not impossible to find tbh.
@void wing so far the have had exalt rarity with everyone I've talked to. Given that it's a league mechanic, I expect more instances of drops.
I guess I should be saving grand heists until next patch, 3/3 fails because can't open the last door atm
they arent exalt rare at all
@rigid stream ...can you give an example of who it dropped more commonly for and where and how? Again by endgame I've found one, my fiance two, another guy lvl 86 hasn't found a single one.... Yea that's exalt rare .
i have found 2 in maps so far, but i rerolled after getting all conqs once. and like 10 during lvling on two chars combined?
wait a second
blueprint reveals are when you can reveal MORE rooms for a blueprint?
all ive known is you get a blueprint, go to the planning room, and run the grand heist...
i have found 2 in maps so far, but i rerolled after getting all conqs once. and like 10 during lvling on two chars combined?
@rigid stream oh wow. So you have found quite a few. Did they drop more after you defeated the conqs?
I have had 17 blueprint drops so far...
@void wing where, when, how have you found so many?
Mapping, mapping and mapping.
they randomly drop from everything
Just from monster drops?
I might have found mine in a heist 🤔
I have about 34 hours played on this char, mostly leveling mapping, only started doing heists recently.
I'm not even lvl 90.
Hmmm well I guess I'll keep to a grind then :/ glad to know it's not a big, just discouraged that they haven't been around. Running heist contracts is getting boring honestly
Ive sunk at least that much time into the game so far and with 1 blueprint... Heist has been underwhelming
Wut?
Idk what you're 'wut'-ing?
Finding heist underwhelming.
I get way more loot in heist than I do in maps.
But for blueprints I'm pretty sure mapping is better, simply on acc of killing more stuff.
Yea. Contracts are the same thing over and over again... And I mean sure you get loot, but at this point I've ran so many I'm just selling most of it. I want to do grand heists and get alternate gems, uniques, etc. Haven't seen them.
It's just mapping again with more loot 🤷🏼♀️ it's the same at end game mapping
The system is supposed to be an endgame alternative similar to mapping.
Much like delve.
Ah. That's good to know. Well in that regard it is better than mapping for looting purposes. But still, running contracts for the same basic loot 🤷🏼♀️ the hyped alternatives and uniques are non-existent for me and that's a buzzkill.
You're focusing on the wrong content for what you want I feel.
If you want to run grand heists, map for blueprints, then run contracts for reveals.
Rather than running heists and not getting any blueprints.
i can't get passed this door because of the enemy on the other side... any suggestions?
she just walks up to stand next to him
losing 83 contracts of shit like this is so painful
i think i've found a solution haha she eventually starts attacking them very slowly so i just have to wait for her to kill the rare
its a level 74 grand heist^^
@limpid dew equipping them with damage gear meta confirmed 🤦
Ugh that suuuucks
nah that's easy mode^^
what blueprint type do u guys think is best for profit? im thinking replicas/new bases?
modt of the gems seem useless. i guess certain ones are prob very valuable tho
What exactly is a grand heist? Is it just a blueprint or something else?
yes grand heist is blueprint
I would think replicas if the market isn't saturated right now
most replicas are trash but some i83 bases seem decent
Sure, but you will get those people who want to try a ridiculous build and shape it around a replica?
Are alt quality gems a grand heists reward too, or are they a chest item?
Wondering if those would be more sellable than replicas
theyre a grand heist reward
they probably are more sellable but you need to get good ones
i havent gotten one worht more than 10c yet
you've got to be kidding with me .-. now the option to open the main door is gone
Have you opened enough chests/killed enough guys to trigger a lockdown? At that point if you leave, you should aquire the contraband.
Not sure if you leave without a lockdown that it would be available 🤔
When I've left before a lockdown, the portal remained open in Rouge's Harbor. I didn't check inventory, but I'm assuming it would still be locked.
wait wtf is this npc doing over here??
Oh maybe they are stuck on smth? If you get them can you go back and the option will be there?
somehow the alert went up so i can just leave now
besides these bugs i'm enjoying the league a LOT more when you don't have to kite enemies all the time
I've had this happen before. The rogue was out of range. I 'got' the rouge and went back to the door and suddenly the option was available to open the door
