No

No
what about rule 9, speculation allowed?
Trying to have fun? Not allowed
i get why speculation isn't allowed. could be fake speculation, a bummer but i get it
well
at this point speculation will be suspect
because of well . reasons
before the patch yesterday it was ok ;o
@swift pagoda did well on the reads I have to say

Here we go, ritual leauge info
wtf is this thing
It's your tribute currency you spend to buy items
A deterministic breach. Now that looks fun.
Huh, those were base items, not unique items that were revealed
Oh my the vessels can be used to juice maps.
is this single target league
Probably not
Yeah they have a boss, but I don't think it's anymore single target then something like Beyond
The league seems to favor clear while the Maven seems to favor bossing.
what did they say about heist's return?
basically unchanged
what did they say about harvest? I missed it
yes vauge
also, new league looks hype
I was gonna give up and resort to playing standard, but expansion is wayy too enticing
Can't see anything about it online @devout osprey
@wooden cloud You pick 1 each from two pools of mods everytime you see the grove, and then you can store up to 10 in a horticraft in your hideout i think
it was in harvest pretty weak stuff
oof yeah it looks bad, why does it vanish eventually 😂
I wonder if they removed certain harvest crafts
Ritual League. Damn that looks tight
wait there's no more elementalist herald stuff
Herald build crazy op, no?
is there an image of the reworked tree?
herald stacking was nerfed a while ago, although I believe herald BV is still good
ascendancy rework for me is the most exciting part; that and harvest
yeah heralds are gone
True actually, would be nice to see what new builds will arise
Ritual is interesting for deterministic shopping 🤔
oh boy we'll see if aura-stacking is gone 🦀 🦀
f split bp
they're nerfing blueprint splits lmao ish
Is it still gonna be the same atlas system? With conqs. and Sirus etc.
I missed the answer to the question of whether a region's trees affect other regions. Did someone catch that?
It looks like you can change the tree on each region?
My question is "if you're in an area with both Metamorph and Ritual active, can you gain an organ from a ritual boss?"
get your split blueprints now
Delete them. It's the only ethical move.
does somebdy have the ascendancy pics for deadeye and inquisitor
wait didn't someone on this server say "weapon damage applies to spells" or something like that
for inquisitor node
prophet
Does that include elemental damage rolls?
yes
The real question : if i defer payment on an item but dont defer it next time i see it . will it not appear again? or better yet can i cycle through deferring items to keep them alive and grab them all
did they mention anything about uber lab requirement?
no
sadness
summoned golems are resummoned 4 seconds after being killed
...minion instability golems?
absolute madlad
wait
can we reduce the cd on that
I wanna see if ascendant gets any of this or if she's left out in the dust
probably not, but with enough golems...
i also misread the deadeye node with mirage archers and substituted blink mirror clones and was like 
suicide stone golems
they confirmed ascendant changes
if CD can be reduced, maw of mischief looks spicy
just do it on necro instead
Sort of want scorch build with those new boots too
dunno if it's plausible to get scorch on a build without getting sap too though
but yeah a bit sad for the single deadeye summoner enabler 🙂
Scorch+shaper of storms
level 4

You can defer more than one item.```
I just decided that my next build is ignite elementalist off that ascendancy alone lmfao
2x obliteration + shaper of flames = fat chaos explosion ignite proliferation
https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/589531603118587957/796845910449455134/unknown.png shouldnt boost oblit explosion?
the oblit explosion chaos damage can (and will) now ignite
oh you mean that, but you dont get the more
therefore I can scale it with ignite rather than chaos stuff
and I can also use that one cluster jewel that prolifs ignites you inflict
I'm going to burn the world down
I was planning to start with a glad build but now i'm thining self-cast something

Elementalist golem minion instability build? Cause you get your golems back every 4 seconds?
Imagine if you can split craftable watchstones
what's the CD on this thing ?
Do we know what elevated modifiers are?
Deadeye 55% less damage taken or just me lol
T0 influence mods
Another new endgame reward, The Maven's Orb, affects items that have two or more influence modifiers. When used on such an item, it randomly upgrades one of these influence modifiers and removes the others. If the modifier that's being upgraded is already at the highest tier, it'll upgrade to a new elevated tier.
@silver kettle any chance you can clarify the CD on Bastion of Elements ?
it has the exact same mechanics as the other aegis skills
thanks
I wonder if you can woke orb after mawen orbing
Water + Lightning skill! Woo! That's sorta what I wanted!
Shame it looks like you can only have one hydrosphere though
3000 damage shield here I come 😄
yeah, for anyone curious the average build at level 90 takes 25-30 notables
(including asc)
what do you mean by notables
the giant ones are keystones
only 25-30 makes me sad. too many travel nodes. Wish more could go into interesting things
that means less then a third of your points go to notables the rest is travel
Blackflame + replica Alberon's warpath?
I'm sorry if I'm missing something, but do golemancers no longer get increased golem damage per summoned golem?
You can use intuitive leaps and threadsif you want lots of notables. 🤷
that's correct. it was considered trade-off for golem-focused elementalists getting much more out of their remaining ascendancy points than they used to
If you take battlemage with spellslinger, do you get even more added damage, or does the added damage from your weapon only apply once?
And if a projectile has 'always pierces' on it, is it able to chain off a wall, or no because pierce needs to happen first?
I don't see why it wouldn't add it twice, unless they make spell slinger "battlemage" too
I thought they fixed the interaction between different types of projectile behavior
that seance passive (which adds up to 20 tormented spirits to a zone) sounds wacky
@lucid stone yes it would still be able to chain off a wall
with the deadeye rework do you guys think deadeye will be as viable as gladiator for bleed bow builds?
assuming nothing changes for glad i'd still say glad will be the non super highend build
lancing steel deadeye 👀
I'm gonna do kb deadeye and then elemental warding ignite elementalist or somethin
Fireball builds in delve lol
Deadeye looks like it might be better for bleedstacking with that one keystone
Also FINALLY elementalist is good HOLY shit
because of rupture stacking as well
Elementalist has some cool stuff
I wish to shock and scorch at once
kinda miss the old rupture stuff like multi and lgoh
Oh wow, I missed that. Guess you have to use an elder ring or thief's torment now.
hmm would i rather have the elementalist shock node and EE or the elementalist fire node for ignite
fire node + flame wall actually, can't use flame wall if i want to stick to lightning ignites with EE
I am annoyed with the hierophant changes
elaborate? I'm not too familiar with hierophant
it ends up being a minor dps nerf if you have to use multitotem support instead
no longer summon 2 totems at once, and lost the 6% increased damage per enemy killed recently
there's no way in hell I'm using multiple totem support, I'm playing ballista totems and have 8 totems already
I don't understand why Arcane Blessing and Illuminated Devotion are spell specific either
like would it really break the game if those worked with attacks fully?
tbh never used hiero for any atk based totems
hiero is really the only viable ascendancy for ballistas right now, nothing else comes close
was assa/champ/deadeye for me mostly
I'm looking at those +4 minimum power and +4 minimum endurance charges though
mostly because ritual of awakening is ridiculous on ballistas, the rest of the ascendancy is mediocre but every other ascendancy offers basically nothing for pure ballista builds
dunno i'd rather take champion for impale ballista or assa for poison over that
If you die during a ritual, what would happen? Does it reset to the point where you can activate it again?
I mean if I was playing physical ballistas sure I guess
doing explosive arrow though, so it needs to be elemental or generic
true but the lack of anything outside of 2 big nodes made me never roll hiero
Heiro archmage looking decent
I hope pure ballistas get more attention in 3.13 than we've seen so far because it's a really fun playstyle, just hamstrung because it's not on GGG's radar for some reason
tbh i'd like them to revert the placement change
Phys wand ballistas is one of my favorite builds now
But it's so hard to get a good wand, and there's not a lot of skills to choose from
so put ballistas on the list of builds that lost their only good ascendancy, next to cobra lash and sst
Trinity support looks interesting
ascendancy still is fine tho and alternatives exist depending on skill
tri-ele hit with trinity support i guess
technically you only need two elements
the resonance with the 3rd will be super high but that's meh whatever
so it'd work well with Ele Equi
So resonance is basically a 25% more and a 10% pen if I'm reading that right?
we don't know what it is at max level, and also you can't compare it to nothing since it takes up a support gem slot
3% more per 5 resonance
we don't know the resonance limit, but I'm assuming it's 50
How the heck am I meant to detonate my golems? maw of mischief or something?
or that one flask+belt combo
They might put +1 summoned totem to tree, who knows
.. there already is +1 totem on the tree, ancestral bond, and panopticon + watchtowers for ballista totems, why would they add more mandatory nodes?
does it count as dying if you weapon swap w/ golem gem on weapon?
They have to hit low life
swap back within 4 seconds and you get more golems... hopefully
you COULD use something like infernal legion
but it doesn't work because golems are immune to elemental damage if you take the preceding node
not sure why you're trying to kill your golems, but: Minion Instability + Umbilicus Immortalis or Mother's Embrace + Coruscating Elixir
minin instability is the why
Umbilicus immortalis doesn't work on golems
Mothers embrace consumes flask charges on summon right?
uh, Fleshcrafter can kill your minions too IIRC
I don't know if it works with Minion Instability though
Flesh crafter might be interesting but the 4s cooldown is rough
no they wouldn't get low life
Flesh crafter and mother's embrace with the take chaos damage flask might work?
chaos doesn't bypass the es so they'd still be tanky as shit
Ah fuck yeah you're right
besides, converting the life to es kind of messes with MI
yeah because more life the better
the only method I can see is mothers embrace + coruscating elixir, or just letting them die normally somehow
Time to make tavukai work for SRS and golems
yeah I think Mother's Embrace with Coruscating Elixir would be the only way tbh
sustaining flask charges sounds painful but it would kill the golems as they're auto-summoned
... I have a sort of awful alternative solution
fortress covenant
actually that's super bad nevermind
Thought on what this is? from the new passive tree
Did i do the math right? A lv20 mirage archer with the new deadeye node is 83% MORE damage
that elementalist nerf to golemancer is a big weirdchamp from GGG
yeah i think golemancer died to give selfcast and triggered elementalist life
so out of curiosity what makes it feel like a golemancer nerf
when I was balance reviewing elementalist it felt very much like golems came out pretty even
lemme reread and compare
ah
so the thing its missing now is the immune to elemental damage, correct?
the exposure buff should compensate
no i cant read, thats there
that's still there, you dropped 180% inc dmg
its just the - yeah
this line got removed
right, but now you get to care about all of your ascendancy points instead of only 4
okay, i think dead is an overstatement. i had it in my head that there were 3 +1 golem nodes on live elemancer and theres still 2
if you want to go full damage grab exposure and the shock node
yeah i think golemancer is better off from this tbh
I'd recommend bastion tho, I think it's the best node on there
you get access to more consistent better shocks and better exposure now, for the cost of 180% inc damage
^ if you dont care about pure more damage you go the primal aegis one now which seems worth if i understand its function
the 4 second resummon is soo good
yeah the rework doesnt solve golem survivability issues but it is qol + more damage or tank which is a net buff
it's a ~3000 dmg buffer with a 10 sec refresh
MI Golems 🤔 with auto summoning
afaik golemancers cant run content with big phys/chaos damage because golems melt anyway
and that was the biggest issue the build had
ye now you just chill for 4 sec
@silver kettle im kinda sad that herald builds died for good as a non broken herald elementalist player but hey this version looks more fun
Doesn't matter if golems melt now, they resurrect themself in 4 seconds with golemancer
that might make the difference tbh
dammit, was gonna mention something, but I forgot what it was, whats got the minion is immune to damage for set amount of time when summoned?
the auto summon is massive buff to non golemancers
I feel its very minor for actual golemancers
Blessed Rebirth on clusters
Yes, that one
that might be worth as qol now
You could prob just grab that and your golems survavibility should be long enough for your golems to do stuff before they die again for 4 seconds
allowing for glass cannon golems
always have golems up because theyll be invulnerable and die on a rotation
And if you abuse the jewels and chain, you can have a stupid amount of golems up constantly
allowing you to focus on their damage or your own stats without having to worry about golem survivability
also abusing renewal would be cool too, since they be switching between full life and death
stacking call to slaughter too is actually funny
@silver kettle not sure if you can answer this, but is there an ascendancy (internally) pure ballista totem builds are balanced around, or is it purely seen as a secondary damage source for bow builds currently? similar to how golems are heavily balanced around elementalist / necromancer
So do we have patch notes now? Like has the new tree been released so I can start planning builds?
definitely cannot answer that sorry
We do not
they will be released in 5 days, though all the changed ascendancies will be shown the day before
guys what's the different between using the blood vessel on ritual and map device?
you use it on a ritual to fill it, then on a map device to add the stored monsters to rituals in that map
hmm, harvest craft saved to horticrafting station in hideout, i guess rip div card gambling? since they cant drop in hideout
Maven Orb is a pretty interesting gamble, can enhance or cut the affix you actually need
Supposedly, it can go beyond tier 1
just repeat till success, then harvest craft the other mod back on 
ez
50:50
Maybe it stays in the inventory slot Sieg? Like how Navali div cards work
for the 1 that double yes that could work, but the 1 that convert into different cards wont fit
Ah :(
So you first use it on the ritual site to fill it up, then after filling it up, you use it on a map device? So each vessel will be used on both site and map?
cant wait to see some 5 upgraded influenced mods item lol
use empty on ritual to capture, use captured on map to release and fight
If you can maven a magic item you can also imprint for woke ig
Do you think we'll get a section on PoE ninja for bosses in vessels then?
probably, anything tradeable and of value will be on there
Organs aren't on there though
cuz organs itself has no value, the mods are the value
True
this is probably more akin to beast orbs
Yeah
though not sure if there's any real "value" to them
ehh i could see ppl bulk buying them to generate ton of tribute and cleanout the favors like all the minor currencies and stacked deck etc
@silver kettle elementalist ignite multiplier now says it needs the highest damage to be fire, does that mean hexblast ignite won't benefit?
based on the way it is worded/described, yes
how IS hexblast ignite
hexblast ignite doesn't really make sense as an elementalist anyway, the main benefit of hexblast ignite is the "all your damage can ignite" component, which you already get from new elementalist
also sup redrach lol
Sup lol
I did hexblast ignite elementalist in heist and flashback, I liked it
Problem is you get rekt by hexproof and avoid ailment maps, so rolling maps is frustrating
I don't see how occultist isn't just better for hexblast then elementalist
old elementalist, not the new one
small tidbit but i love the trinity support ui looks
@swift pagoda my bad, elementalist's new Aegis has a shorter recharge delay than the other ones.
how much is it
I'll see if I can get it squeezed into the faq
if you can share ofc
cause there's another important thing about it that would be nice to mention while we're there
the atlas passives only affect the maps of that region, or is it just a trade off between having better x or y league mechanics
region
Ayt, thanks
Would be interesting how that affects what maps are good/high demand
also mindfulness where to use your master missions 😂
I don't understand what aegies does
this but way stronger
it's a ~3000 damage buffer on a <10 sec cd by what viper confirmed
Wait actual survivability tools for elementalist?
normal aegis mechanics recharge in 10
10 seconds definitely seemed too long for an ascendancy node
if it's 6 to 8 sec it's the best buffer node on the tree
at 10 it would be great, I played Magna Eclipsis necro, that buff almost never went off
pssst the trailer has footage of it in action
What is primal aegis going to absorb? all 3 elements?
can probably figure out the timer just from watching the trailer, exact value would be nice though 😛
how big can we get it, 100 per notable
I think viper noted the average for builds is 25-30 notables
30 sounds about right to me
seems pretty good
megalomaniac and thread of hope might help boost numbers 
my builds have around 27 to 35 without building for them specifically, I presume around 30 average
my (not at all fixed) hierophant ballista build has 33 notables
1passive voices 

27 notables in a lvl 80 build
My smol brain cannot handle how to use Trinity support gem
did u use normal mediums or megalomaniac? 🧠
elemental's primal aegis cd seems to be 5 seconds, from watching the trailer
you dont unless:
EE
you like dealing multi type damage
I hope something cool was done with Raider
found the effect
I felt like it needed more of a rework than inquisitor tbh
25:58 (hit, goes down to 3105) to 26:03 (recharges back to 3300 after 5 seconds of no damage)
yep works like aegis, recharges even if you haven't depleted it
5 seconds is the best defensive node in the game
holy
trinity and EE are a hand in hand kinda thing right
hits only, but not standing in bad and having golem regen compensates the DoTs
what is "battlemage" ? is it a new support skill?
i see some discussion on removing stats from items and putting battlemage on them instead
new keyword that makes weapon damage add to spells
but what are hte stats for battlemage? that same reddit thread also discusses instruments of virtue which isnt battlemage
you sure?
yes
"Gain added spell damage equal to the damage of your main hand weapon."
viper confirmed it
it's in the inquisitor picture
this is just a description of instruments of virtue. battlemage is another thing listed there but not described?
I still can't think of a good battle mage combination
hmmm
my god..........poe plays cant read 
the description at the bottom is literally an explanation of battlemage
Reading in 2021
oh i read that and the top part and thought it was a clarification of that
ahh
Elementalist lost the elemental leech lol

ok i see
well, the obvious broken ones got addressed
just go to wiki, list of unique weapons, sort by damage and go from there
so can you make a 1k pdps 2h weapon and then use that as a base for spell casting (and conversion) with battlemage? (and instruments of virtue) or just use one of the two uniques that has it now with a diff ascendancy?
I'm kinda weirded out by elementalist's new Heart of Destruction, why does Convergence have forced 50% downtime on bosses lol
im sure someone will make something disgusting with damage conversion build
I've already come up with an idea 
anyways too much thinking with very little info. on the 12th well get some real info. like what they doing to the precious scion 😉
Is there way to manually stop the ritual or do you have to logout?
its in map
so you can probably escape via portal
I really hope it has button to turnoff like delirium does
Will there be adds in the Maven boss rush 👀
undead versions of sirus shaper elder and some other abominations will appear in large hordes to replenish our flasks
obviously 😄
all I want is if I kill all 4 guardians at the same time shaper should just pop out
I dont even care if he drops loot
Hooo minotaur
i wanna know about the phasing bosses
what shenanigans will the solo version have
Innocence, Brine King, Primordial Blocks, Arakaali
yughol
goddess
malachai
kitava
and the list goes on ;o
actually tyhere arre two kitavas in maps. lord of the grey, and kitava the destroyer.
Can you have the Maven watch both halves of the Twilight Temple Map
So we can finally get solaris lunaris together in a map fight
@maiden coral no unique map bosses atm
for maps with multiple bsoses do we get them all at once
or do we choose teh boss we want to fight.. vaal temple comes to mind as well as the rogue exile maps
Has It been stated if any harvest crafts have been removed?
Not that i know of, wonder when that will be discussed more
Or maybe even on manifesto?
Do we know if we can replace the bosses in maven arena?
you can choose what you put in i think, so we have some control at least
Not sure about removing
I was thinking of putting the first bosses I face as soon as possible just to start the cycle, then replace them later for easier / harder ones as I see fit
I hope we can change them
Are you sure? I thought once you build 3, they stay there forever
Cause it'd be weird to immediately do a boss rush again after fighting 1 more boss
I'm not sure if it's always guaranteed, she has to invite you first
So it might be like harvest, where you can do it every 3 maps or so
Oh you're right, you build them up each time until you have 10 and they stay there after that?
Where you can repeat it each time
Cuz having to do 10 each time is kind of too much
ehhh looking at sirus cycles that need 20+ maps, it doesn't seem that bad
Also once she's interested, you can control which bosses are added by calling her on the map device
When you put it that way, 10 doesn't seem a whole lot, plus you can progress both at the same time which is great
yeah, that's pretty neat
I guess it's tedious that you have to do it for each of the 8 regions, but it's a good long term investment with the bonuses to league mechanics it gives
also believe he said you can buy the end game invitations.
You're finishing up the atlas anyways, so you're getting everything by the time you complete the atlas
had a bit going on so may have gotten confused with the rituals i will have to rewatch
It's just the atlas trees are so cool, the sooner you get them the better. I want them to be activated as soon as possible
yeah 😄
I wonder if they tweaked the spawn chance for each region
Like, will we get more legion in an area with legion tree just because it's there
As a stealth buff
minor nodes help with frequency i believe
Some do yes
I'm just happy to see another simple league with a nice reward structure
yeah the 10 one is tradable
there's both the post-kill loot explosion AND the shopping mechanic, which is lovely
just re-watched
Really, where in the vid?
somewhere around here https://youtu.be/aYGSoRaUZ8Q?t=363
I sit down with Chris Wilson, Lead Producer on Path of Exile to talk about the new Echoes of the Atlas expansion and Ritual challenge league!
Check out the official announcement here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64ZgB6qHJmc
Hope they continue Heist's smart loot in the store
Ahh thanks, i didn't finish the qna
Wait, so you get an item to activated to do the 10 boss fight? That you can craft?
that is what it sounds like to me
so you can do an entire day of nothing but maven fights whack
I hope they clear all the Maven systems before the league
Because I thought the invitation is a portal at the end of a map, not an item that drop then you activate
Oh he actually said "Invitation are quest items" Until the one with 10 bosses
yeah like i said only the end game ones are tradable
it's all going to be fun eitherway. pretty hyped for the league and the expansion both. I like the more simple leagues best. I just want to kill things and get loot and that seems to be pretty much what this is
I agree, the league pair well with the expansion
it's also neat that this is another layer they can shake the atlas up every league
I think the answer is yes, but can we defer any item we find? As in, a mirror would never be too expensive to defer. We'll always be able to defer it
It's very good to fill in the empty gap between sirus fights
They will be in future expansions
can't wait until he is gone lol
I like him. You don't see him that often, and the way he pronounces Oriath is amusing to me
you forgot bEURN to the ground
ehh all the visual clutter in the fight bugs my eyes out plus the map design itself with all the zoom in and zoom out is annoying as hell
You can just sell the fight ;p
yeah but the way it's set up that wastes time
don't like sitting around awaiting. i wanna play ya know
The atlas tree seem to add around 6%-10% chance for the desired mechanic to be spawned. I hope it's more impactful than I think
Oh true, I forgot about that
%6-10% is pretty impactful i would think
considering how often you encounter league mechanics
If you're specializing in a mechanic, you'd wana see it as often as possible, like the legion nodes do not add % chance for legion to be spawned. Feels like a waste when you go 10 maps with 1 legion
I'm hoping they stealth buffed these odds
wonder how this affects scarab value
may not effect it depending on how they interact
i think scarabs would just add additional so it should be fine
I'm sure they'll be less valuable, since people are getting more sulphite per map, way more
20% increased, with 10% of getting double
Never mind what I said about legion, the big node gives 10% to encounter a legion
Each with a general, feels good
Can get ~92% increased chance of it being maraketh from new watchstones
What are the normal odds on a general appearing?
not known
Only time I ever saw a general was in a tier 3 monolith room in Incursion
Which guarantees both sides have a general
Now, it's 100% chance to get 2 generals
get general pretty often you just have to be really fast to get to the edges
100% "more"
Doesn't that mean it's 100% to be a general
one of those weird cases where increase is better then more
That's not consistent with increase and more. Why lol
?
u do 100 dmg, 100% more dmg, u do 200 dmg
I suppose it's possible I've had generals spawn, but didn't free then so I didn't realize it.
It honestly really suprised me when I was fighting in the Incursion room and heard the voice line of someone yelling "Traitors!", since that was just something I had never heard before.
Oh okay. You're right
Wonder if there's a passive node to increase odds of getting a lab trial
since we can reallocate out
not a league mechanic so probably not
all the different words get confusing pretty easy sometimes lol
% to drop upgraded offerings tho
Especially when it's a second language lol
Are they releasing the full atlas tree on the 10th ?
Haven't all of the Atlas ascendancies already been revealed?
I thought I saw that on Reddit
i want to take a deeper look at the inquistor was curious if one of the new ascendancies will work like wise oak. but didn't get a good look at the wording. If both strength and intel is the same % I wonder if that means it counts both as the lesser so you get to double dip crit
zana - no
I said "Atlas Ascendancies". I was talking about the passives on the Atlas.
And thanks, Viper
It's fun reading the speculation based on just seeing the images :D
gotta say, the torment 1 came up better than expected
hey viper, does every influenced mod have a t0 now lol
The wording on the incursion tree says
"Area have 3% chance to grant an additional Alva mission on completion"
So, we still have the same default chance, but when it occurs and lands on alva, there's a 3% of getting two instead of one. Right?
yes
Ritual looks really solid from just The few pictures and vids we got. I like loads of monsters and this seem to do just that
just wait for the reddit post where ppl spent their last tribute on refresh and cant defer a hh or mirror
It's on them if they do it, you can see all the items when you first open it
i mean after u bought everything u wanted, had leftover with nothing good left to buy, and hit refresh
Were there any Synthesis icons in Atlas passives?
Thank you for that!
Wait lol torment needs to have touched monsters for benefits?
you defer a good item for 20% of the cost, so if a HH showed up foir 40k and you had 7k tribute, you couldnt defer it so you'd just lose a HH? I mean they said higher tier maps with "offerings" or vessels will give nuts loot and tribute, so I assume by the time ur doing those maps, rare items will show up, however if you defer the item did they say it shows up in the NEXT map so u can immediately mega juice it with 4 vessels etc to ensure u can afford the big item or?
Blight is going to work very well with this mechanic. Since for the most part you desperately want oils at the start to get your ideal aniont, but then oils aren't too useful after that.
Are you sure it's 20% to defer?
yes
So you start with focusing on Blight, then refund the points once you have your oil
yes, 20% is in the video, and while they didn't specify immediately next zone, it seems reasonable to assume so
lol i literally just heard that 20% number in the baeclast
and i imagine things like hh/mirror will cost alot, and most likely are spawngated behind using the captured vessels
^ hopefully
so u should only even see them when using the vessels which mean have at least enough to defer it
my assumption is that high tier items and t1 uniques wont show up unless mega juiced which means you can either afford them or defer them for another juicy map
Imagine finding a Headhunter, and then Defering that like 10 times in a row until you eventually have the ability to buy it
that or high tier maps giving more tribute, etc
it's also important to note that you can keep paying the 20% cost as it gets lower and lower so you're basically renting the item for a long time until you can finally juice a map enough to get it lol
I hope there arent stuff you see that you cant defer
So it's almost impossible to defer a mirror at the start lol feelsbad
yeah but Chris was REALLY adamant that shit like that wont show up early
he was like players DEFINITELY wont be getting a HH, they DEFINITELY wont find one that easily
lol
just hope ur instance dont crash before u can defer it in the 5th map or smthg ;|
in b4 first t1 map HH and mirror
Itd suck to have to pass up on a goldrim or tabula cause you cant afford 20% of it yet or something
3 mirror drop from betrayal
It will probably be the easiest way to get an HH regardless
Apart from ancient orbs

yeah i'd love to do an early levelling ritual and be like oh tabula.. ah no points gg 15
I thought you could defer any items with the amount they give you. No matter what it is
But it doesnt really count
😞
no you need 20% of the tribute to defer, if its super rare like 40k+ and you have 7k tribute, you wont be able to, but im assuming unless its literally a HH, mirror or shavs or something it should be deferable
im interested to know what items show up, if anything
imagine alt quality stuff \o/
I do realize that now, probably won't be much of an issue. But those unlucky few will hate it
getting alt quality gems without heist
whats the weird item below the breachstone
im assuming its a new unique?
i just wanna target farm those new 20 alt cards
Does anyone wana speculate what that is? Maybe synthesis?
you can you just need to abuse watchstone mechanics but its aids to setup
and only early on
Those people that farm tower for shavs or burial for the doctor beg to differ
rip burial farm
I see an organism inside of a crystal
My bet is on Essence
Makes sense
those numbers are always unconfirmed really
560 pts to defer 4 ex if you couldnt afford it? Big stonks
Not really since you get a lot of tribute
it'll be higher
imagine you defer it then it doesnt show up for 20 maps and when it does your game crashes and all portals rip
2.8k is kinda low
I wonder how do we get the item that allow us to refund the atlas tree
also note that those numbers might/can change between trailer and launch
I hope the div card will be common af
balance is still ongoing
interestingt you'll see 3-4 ritual areas per zone, i thought it'd be one but multiple ones is nice, i wonder if the tribute 'stacks' up per area so you can bottleneck your tribute for those items
Yea never saw any tease of the atlas refund
It wasnt alongside the plat/chromium stones and the Maven orb
i do like the "pick an item" aspect from guff's stash so this is a +1 for randomness
yeah, woke cadiro is great, no need to pickup coins and half a stash of selection instead of just 1
and ppl can't jack it like cadiro
im so excited to see how trash the low level zone items are haha
imagine doing one in coast and it sjust a bunch of ilvl 1 white items
although saying that im sure if you went mudflats and did it you might clutch a few early transmutes or alts for gems
imagine finding a tabula 💰
trying to think what act 1 zone would be the best to do it on, i'd say ledge imo
kind of wish you could 'save' tribute though but its good cus you dont get to abuse early zones to keep target farming a good item like exiles+tidal island style mechanics
saved = ppl will ask for trade = balanced around economy
so i prefer this method instead
ye fk trading for tribute
at least theyve confirmed to dump party play further on though
map owner only gets access and you have to 'share' it
this is literally just a better version of perandus league
luckily im solo this time around
So do rituals benefit from mob density in the map?
i wasnt watching baeclast, fell asleep to nugis angellic voice 1 hour in
woke up to tarkecat screaming and went back to sleep
legit this
kind of confusing that you do the 'mavens' challenge in every map if you want, but did they clarify whats to stop you doing a bunch of shitty non-phased easy bosses and abuse those for the challenge
i mean we gonna expect "10 GUARDIAN OF THE PHOENIX MAVEN CHALLENGE.. YOU WONT BELIEVE HOW I DID THIS" clickbaits soon?
10 hydras with balls
phrasing
faust, can ur ballista take on 10 bossess? 
tfw you didnt play harvest cus of garden and lack of import now harvest is core with pre-made gardens
Bex: "Atlas Passive Trees and then Ascendancy Classes."
On what's redacted
They can take on anything!
I might die in the process but they can
chris said he felt harvest target craft was op so probably lots ?
he also said he didn't want to nerf the crafts
i think the good ones will just be extremely rare
rather than gone
I feel pretty hyped but I cannot figure out what to play
if only conversion trap work on unique mobs ~
Th bossing focus made me doubt the blink mirror arrow starter I wanted to do tho
^
I was gonna do some CoC or flicker originally, but I feel like bossing would require too much investment to be smooth
Although this may be possible with tributes and harvest?
cyclone with vaal cyclone suck all 10 bossess on to u
😳
Just don't bring along the map boss that has "nearby allies can't be killed"
Really curious about the new inquisitor ascendancy that encourages attribute stacking
or that one racecourse boss with the reflect shit lol
Feels like it's a lot of free crit
I think you can probably aim for what like 400-600 attributes pretty flexibly?
soooo 600% inc crit chance
that's pretty big
battlemage is extremely interesting to me
replica kongor's undying rage inquisitor CI build 🤔
Actually, Amulets with +% to attributes ars better for stacking large amounts of attributes then Astremeties is.
Astrmeties is perfect for meeting attribute requirements. But when you're trying to stack things up to very large numbers (like 800+) then multipliers beat out flat bonuses for attributes
astramentis till we can afford a % amulet it is then
i use astramentis forever cause it's convenient
and i'm too lazy to think about % attribute mods
Indeed, lol
i would highly recommend looking at various 2H unique weapons to see what kind of nutty shit you might be able to do with battlemage
for instance, there's this staff called The Stormwall...
I believe Shaper % attribute mods go to 15%.
So it you already have at least 670 or more in flat attributes, then +15% beats +100 flat.
However, a rare amulet can roll a flat bonus in addition to that, as well as other useful stats like resistance. You can also have it be a dual attribute base instead of the triple attribute base that astremeties is. So more reason to go for it.
But if your Templar also has some green gems that he needs dexterity to use, then Astremeties might be better after all since it also allows you to meet those requirements.
After doing the math, it would seem that Astremeties is actually the way to go after all. And those % attribute amulets should probably be reserved for those pushing insane numbers, going past 1000
How would templar abuse both strength and int stacking wrt to item choices?
I admittedly don't know. I'm not sure what all scales off of attributes
You could get the Divinity body armor (I think it's called something like "Cloak of the Ephereal") that has insanely high Strength and Intel requirements.
does battlemage benefit from added elemental damage on the weapon
yes, if it's a local mod on the weapon
i'm guessing it works the same as spellslinger
ah neato
to the people from 2 screens above. chris said no duplicate map bosses for now
Not sure if this was answered somewhere, if i defer an item and then use the refresh feature
Does the defer still work, if so does it defer to the next area or right into the refreshed selections in that area
guys is the ritual league going to be in the echoes of the atlas league or sperate ?
echoes is the expansion everyone gets, ritual league is optional like heist was
OH thats big help, thank you friend !
Im still new to the game 🙂
So it you just going to have to kill enemies around the altar ? or will it be like a tower defense thing ? Im asking because am thinking about a build. Totem builds could be quite useful here maybe 😄
Just kill
ritual league will be in the echoes one ?
echoes is what everyone gets = expansion, ritual is the temp league like heist
ok thanks
i think people will try lure the whole map mobs into ritual then complain its too tedious to get reward for ritual mechanics
anyone think so?
anything that does not originally spawned within the vicinity of the ritual does not count
unless you meant people do it not knowing it doesnt work then complain anyway then yeah
that's reddit
sounds neat...was that confirmed?
yes, on the stream q&a session
Man slayer looks juicy
Do you think its gonna still be worse than champion if you go for impale?
Considering how boss heavy the expansion seems to be
can't wait for the "only 2000 more ritual encounters before i pay off my HH" complaings on reddit woooweee
free loan no bitching
first midleague patch will probably introduce a visual effect for Ritual mobs if there isn't already one.
don't forget on death effects reduced in dmg
oops
I love how this League is even more simple than Metamorph or Legion
This is just "approach an arena and kill all and get some coins in order to buy stuffs you like"
Honestly I'm fine with it, I'm down for killing more mobs
Perandus but good
Eh perandus does have quite a lot of loot as well, If you meet it every area that is
I absolutely have no hope to see any exalts though
cant wait for "i forgot to defer my HH for the 25th times fucccckkkkk" 
i can see myself just mapping and completely forgot to defer important items 
You speed run your sirus rotations by leaving once the conqueror shows up
Then cry cause you didnt defer the HH
the whole ritual urn thing where you fill it with kills and can trade it later thats ritual right
not part of simping for the lady
right which is all part of the watchstones
crafting them to affect the boss orgies
did they say how many items you can defer in ritual?
i know it was multiple
multiple items per ritual , didnt mention limit
indefinitely on the same item (across multiple instances) till u can afford it
Mmm
what if we miss a payment
Hillock comes to your hideout to rough you up until you pay
probably poofs if you do a ritual and dont defer it
ill test it in first area 😄
inb4 deferring hh for 10 maps and the 11th map crashed before u could defer it
but yea I think my understanding from video was that you'd lose it if you didn't keep deferring
aye
but you can skip rituals if you want right? or do non comlpeted rituals couunt as missing a payment
yea that's a great question - hopefully only if you actually open the store after?
so you don't have to 100% maps to find it haha
99.9% u can skip rituals
the wording is what made me skeptical on it
it said defer to next area
not next completed ritual
I hope crashing mid ritual doesnt cause you to lose deferred items haha
i hope juicing maps makes you get more tribute
liek t19 100% delirius ez buy evrything
aye, there's no reason to defer it to the next "ritual" since u get multiple rituals in an area which share the same inventory
Was there a showcase of the Deadeye rework and when are nerfs/buffs etc. Revealed?
Some map ascendancies thing look very nice
All magic mobs incursion is probably extremely good xp
So what are our thoughts on currently seen ascendancy changes? Elem/Deadeye/Inqui?
Can't wait to see what they did to scion too
"actually deadeye is shit and worse than she was before" - quite a few people in this discord
lol
I don't like the change to Rupture, but I really like the defensive changes
For my high evasion, high dodge, build, this essentially gives me 30% less damage taken from hits in most situations, except the ones where there a very high amount of attacks coming at me.
No wait, it's damage taken in general, not just damage taken from hits. So this also saves me from damage over time.
So I'd say it's a nerf to the Deadeye's offense, but a big buff to their defense
deadeye will actually be fucking meta for lab farming now lol
literally never die to traps
kintsugi + wind dancer + wind ward
= never die
replace kintsugi with qotf if you want 2304982394 movement speed i guess
lab farming 
have any of the elevated mods been released?
nope
besides the %int/+1 int gems one
from that you can assume there will be ones for dex/str too of the same quality
Does ritual loot use that weird "roll an item multiple times and pick the best outcome" system?
and the life flask one @violet nymph
oh right
we don't know
actually being excited for poe
I did not think it could happen again after shite league
if you think a little about it both the expansion and league mechanic are pretty small
expansion is literally just new watchstone stuff + boss rush + tree passives
and ritual is ritual
that means there's not much room for bugs, right? ...right?
the secret tech of maximum impact for minimum effort
please do it more often lol
honestly i prefer the ritual choose-your-award mechanic over what we've been getting recently
i don't like it when the economy is overinflated with shit
100% it's gonna be buggy
I wonder if the new deadeye ricochet thing works with frost wall. Or is it only natural walls?
lol that didn't take long https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Lha5B4PPJ4
Echoes of the Atlas will be Path of Exile's new endgame expansion which will come in Patch 3.13 alongside Ritual League. Rebalancing of ALL 19 Ascendancy Classes, New Skill gems, the Maven, Harvest going core and much more. This trailer summarizes the announcement in a humorous way that is not to be taken too seriously. I mainly mean to shorten ...
frost wall hasn't interacted with player projectiles in ages
The reworked "Ricochet" node has an interaction with terrain in general. I'm going to try it once the patch hits.
Ok guys, big question, which spell will benefit from added phys damage and high crit chance? Going for battlemage. With 2h weapon
Have they rewarded new hideouts for challenges before?
nope
this dude seems to think that the narrower scope didn't actually happen lol
That's really cool that this is a reward now
The hideout looks pretty nice as well. I'd like to build that in Minecraft and have it be a base in that.
Will altars be in every map?
Cute
man i love yojis actual trailers
didnt chris say that the league would be narrow in scope not that the expansion would
jebaited
We have defined a very specific scope for December's 3.13 expansion. It contains everything that a large Path of Exile expansion needs, but no more.
they're both pretty small
the expansion is just a boss rush, a boss fight, and the atlas passive tree/craftable watchstones
it's not a whole lot
the base changes of the expansions are those things
the content looks bigger than it is lol
that being said i'm fucking excited
it really is maximum impact for minimum effort as well
yeah i also enjoy the underpromise overdeliver approach this time
changes carefully selected to make players the happiest relative to the amount of work required
new content much the same
viper since you are here, what are those sticks ive seen in ritual pics?
I either don't know or can't answer 🙂
for those who dont know what im talking about
those look like shards of things we've seen but i'm not sure
viper, what happens if i defer an item and refresh the favor?
- deferred item is in new selection and deferred
- deferred item is in new selection but no longer deferred
- deferred item does not show up till next instance
- toucan
I don't know but it'll be in the faq
I really don't know anything more about ritual than you, I haven't worked on it or playtested it at all personally
you probably buffed ballista tho 
SoS buff
ah, just knowing it'll be in faq is enough for me 
can you get offered an item that you cant even afford to defer ?
I'm guessing yes
that would be tragic
can't wait to be offered ONLY things that you can't even deffer 
Don't get me wrong when I say this i'm totally hyped for the new league and stuff, but what peeked my interest the most was when the video said poe 2 may be sooner then we think.
imagine getting hh or a mirror in a t1 map but you cant even defer it
@fair prairie that's a bad thing
the more they rush it the more of a shitshow it will be
i feel like im the only one that doesnt really care that much about poe2
it's been worked on for awhile now, i wouldn't consider it a rush job
like this expansion and league is hype AF
considering they had only done two acts in over a year?
if the rest are done quickly that means they're rushed
poe2 looks slow
I just want the 6 linked everything already... and new campaign. Not gonna lie i'm bored as hell with the current one
after you do the poe2 campaign once you will go back to the old campaign
poe2 expert ^
i'll likely find a way to rotate them so i'll be less bored on restarts
act 1 boss with phases 
i guess we didnt watch the same gameplay
not gonna lie that worm terrified me, but it was also made to be more difficult for exilecon. Our version will be easier
if you think the new act1 is as fast as the current act1 i cant argue with you
they intentionally made the demo more difficult you need to factor that in.
they said they want to make sure new acts and current acts take about the same time to beat
won't matter much. you will always league start the campaign that has the ascendancy you like
campaign 2 could be trash but have the meta ascendancy so it would be the most played campaign
you can choose any ascendancy you want after you play the new campaign once
is that tied to the account or league though
Can we play older witch in poe1 campaign ?
i think its account but im not 100% sure
unless they say account i think its safer to assume it's league
i think they said acc
imagine being forced to play both campaigns every league to choose all classes
yeah that sounds bs af
doesn't sound much different from now. your still forced to play the campaign to level a new character
we will find out in 2050
lol
for now lets enjoy the BIG juice
i got a feeling i'll dig this ritual thing... except for the mario part i don't like mario
if there is no limit to how many mobs you can get in the jar it will be insane
I literally said last week i'd cry if they made Path of Exile: Mario and what did they do
they add the spinny wheel of death
mario ?
yeah mario Where you have to avoid getting hit by the spinny fire arm in koopas castle
ritual has that same thing
pfff just face tank it
since when dodging is part of poe ?
you just build more defence and more damage
maybe
but i get the feeling their gonna make spinny lazer hurt
I'm thinking legion chargers level of tears happening
just a date when they will reveal the map ascendancy nodes associated with it that i'm aware of
wait a sec the vessel shows how many mobs there are
so you can just search for insanely stacked vessels
It could be like Scion just unlock and then you can choose which char your want from poe1 or poe2 at creation time and it's account unlocked
you can juice the shit out of maps to make stacked vessels for sale
@wooden cloud 10% base rate as usual I bet
vessels to me seem sort of like Ambush, but you get to choose your loot with a shop attached
not sure if this is the proper channel but did they mention the resonance cap for trinity support
sad
from what i understand the mobs you kill in the circle of the first ritual get revived on the other rituals too
so if you juice it with scarabs and sextants those also get revived
and by the time you reach the 4th ritual it will be stacked 
sounds like something cyclone would be good at
now imagine buying 4 of those stacked vessels and putting it in your map
or ED, Cont
the map will crash 
its the selfcurse dream
just imagine how many rares will be there
is this gonna be another vaal nova league
sadly revived mobs cant spawn beyond portals so you cant have infinite beyonds
if they somehow gut aurastackers this will be a selfcurse league
What if you Vaal breach in the ritual?
you kill them, and then they revive
There's no vaal breaches anymore?
dude that sounds like an early league bug 
if there's breach in map device you can vaal breach
you can get it from the div card that gives a corrupted gem too
gemcutter promise
anyway, it was just a thought
I didn't see the challenges yet
pretty eez access to explode for elementalists now with inpulsa and guaranteed shock on any dmg
yeah that's my plan pre explode chest if it's not going to be too expensive
inpulsa is always expensive
with harvest back getting explody should be pretty easy
im going fire 5 * 50% (2.5% x all more/inc fire)
kek depends on how rare harvest and those crafts are
too bad elementalist doesn't have anything for freeze
why ?
@violet nymph im prolly going fire bv again albeit with elem this time
15% more (shock min)
30% more (the reworked pendulum)
25% (exposure)
1x golems node
out of the reworked ascendancy it looks the best
yeah i know it says you
and i already used woc on brand
in my last bv builds
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5j1jZIHS8hc&t=8s (during harvest) so obviously with pretty good gear
fire bv doesnt need explody, the herald of ash does enough damage to chain
but nice QoL tho, more reliable chains
i'm not sure about melee range in ritual league tho
10 bosses, probably bufffed
with melee range?
4x Vasts and 6 pcharges will get BV to 30ish radius np
i'm prob going golemns tbh
also i can always switch shock node for chill node (for surviv)
when will the new league start?
might as well get all the fucking autohotkey shit and the loot filters ready
loot filter jan 12th
oh yea
