I see, thanks for explaining @indigo wolf

I’ve seen boss areas with Scourge monsters. It made going to Scourge dimension useful if I was running out of flasks or life

Found the boss in scourge mode twice today. Apparently he always drops a unique with tier 3 scourge mods

Does anyone experience sudden ping spikes in maps?

#

Scourge feels like the opposite of Expedition

#

People hated Expedition for the nerfs but the League itself was fun

#

Scourge was hyped for the QoL but the league itself is... Shit

#

Like dude I like the Krangleverse

#

But not krangling my items

quaint topaz
#

Yep essentially

#

Atleast ignoring scourge will be easier than ignoring all the nerfs of last league

#

how come I can't post a picture?

I had a question about a modifier

that is on it

I like how you can skip getting trials entirely by just finding a lab key from past league content

You don’t have to do any trials in maps

It’s very nice

Yo guys. Anyone lagging like mad?

why go maps take so long to scourge?

gonna have to get a second character with passive tankiness to actually do krangle in maps :D

I've prob spent like 6 ex on this so far

#

I don't think minions were nerfed directly, but you can't invest in them as much due to the changes in aura (especially aura effect stat)

Hey guys!!

I heard that the timer should stop when you encounter a Scourge boss..
Sooo, I found a few Scourge bosses now, but not a single time has the timer stopped...
What am I doing wrong?

violet nymph
#

Is Arakaali's Fang meta now or some shit? Since when is it 4ex 3 days after league start?

crisp tree
#

its rare

#

last league was easy to get with Gwennen and got "buffed" with The Squire shield

ok fair. I've just always picked one up early on for like 1ex, now it's 4 😦

do scourge monsters spawn in incursions?

can't activate scourge in map incursions at least, but i'd expect maybe in the temple map?

violet nymph
#

i defended this game so much in the last league, lost about 20k karma on reddit for it. But now even I am disappointed... I play this game for the lootsplosions. This league sucks.

#

Is there a trick to getting 6L from 15% add link, must have transformed atleast 80 times now, maybe its just very rare

indigo wolf
#

I heard it only works for 5+1, not any other combination of 6 sockets (e.g. 3+3)

#

The explanation being it works kind of like tainted fusing, where it adds one link to the largest link group, rather than adding a link independent of how large those groups are

runic zephyr
#

do scourge bosses have any loot worth killing them for? or just double scourged uniques

prisma charm
#

I was told there aren’t any league specific uniques this go round, which would lead to that answer being no

#

Just a loot explosion

tfw it's way less efficient to get corruption stacks on scourge maps because you don't control when you go into nightmare.
I refuse to believe they've tested this league more than a few days :/

I was live searching for a cheap Cold Iron point and there's this one that keeps popping up with -2 level of all spell from scourge . I always laugh when it appears

Lukewarm Iron Point

real ingot
#

So what do you think about Scourge so far?

#

The mechanic isn't that enjoyable for me, tbh... But the reworks, updates and all make the game far more fun!

next epoch
#

I like the general concept, but the risk-to-reward tuning needs some work. Negative scourge corruptions on items are a lot worse than the positive ones

#

Also, tainted currency feels like an unnecessary break of the "corrupted means it can't be crafted on" rule

livid apex
#

Core game improvements can carry the league, which is fortunate

#

Mechanic of swapping over feels nice but rewards are Big Iffy and there’s dumb unreadable oneshots

next epoch
#

Oh yeah. Also, the rare item drops from hellscape monsters are basically garbage

lilac saffron
next epoch
#

On a different note, Scourge feels like the writers went on break for a league. Not that they don't deserve it after all the work in Expedition

violet nymph
#

Anyone have any good lightning witch builds I can follow? Nothing online I've found that I like. I'm kinda doing okay so far but I feel like i'm going to fall off. I predominately play with friends

real ingot
#

@next epoch We need a new crafting league ✊

#

For real tho if we follow general PoE themes and order

#

Lore leagues are sorta sandwiched between non lore ones

#

I was excited with this "What if Kitava won" at first, tho

next epoch
real ingot
#

As for the risk reward of scourge, the issue I see can be applied to general crafting

#

"high end" doesn't matter since they have just larger pools, not better

#

Like getting an ilvl 80 weapon just to see a tier 8 mod on it

#

Combine that with the painfully long time it takes to transform an item, as well as the hard cap there is to it... And you get a mechanic that feels useless

lilac saffron
#

Kitava always wins

#

Blesses you with -60 res

real ingot
#

I mean we don't quite see that much lore

lilac saffron
#

But this time he doubles down

real ingot
#

For scourge I mean

lilac saffron
#

Ye not much lore

real ingot
#

As for the mechanic it's also VERY shitty how the good roll can be outright cancelled by the bad roll

next epoch
real ingot
#

Like "lightning damage is lucky No lightning damage" or smth like that

#

The issue is the amount of modifiers that outright eat the good mod alive

#

Like, imagine getting -30 to one ele res and plus 30 to another in an item

#

It feels... Pointless

next epoch
#

The resistance modifiers just feel really boring tbh

real ingot
#

They are

#

We got rings for that

#

I'm afraid Scourge isn't Core material until the mod pool gets sorted out

next epoch
#

Like someone had to come up with twenty new corruption implicits before lunch

real ingot
#

Or like, at least remove the tier hard caps

#

To avoid permanent bricking at least

next epoch
#

Hungry like Kitava

Well, I sorta like scourge as far ad encounters go

#

Anyone else having trouble surviving as an armor based build in higher map scourges? I notice when im running 8-9 maps once I reach about 50 stacks it’s generally a bad idea to go into scourge.

prisma charm
#

What other forms of defense do you have?

#

Block? Suppression? Recovery?

#

I’m not pure armor, but run a mix of armor/evasion/suppression and do still have situations where I can get chunked pretty hard, but rarely is it actually a 1shot. If you’re having trouble with getting swarmed, that’s more a speed/dam/clear issue than defenses

#

I’ll be adding block to my layers once I go dual wield

pseudo snow
#

ok, I keep dying in scourge to some sort of giant black orb spell/attack. what the hell is killing me and how do I stop it?

prisma charm
#

I think that’s effectively just a slam to move away from

pseudo snow
#

it's almost instant! 😦

prisma charm
#

Honestly that’s one I haven’t really paid much attention to. I’ve seen it, but I’m always moving forward, I don’t think its been an issue for me

trim horizon
#

For some reason can't complete hideout clear monsters when they are cleared ? Is it a bug ?

pseudo snow
#

I'm cyclone, it may just be a lot riskier for me. pretty sure I'm gonna roll up a DD character though cos I feel like I want a lot more spell mitigation.

sage breach
dire pawn
#

if you dont have phasing youre ruined

#

just get jammed on mobs and die

prisma charm
#

Evasion isn’t necessary

#

4.6k is what I run, but I’m also using that new low life aura

#

That takes a percentage of the dam and translates it into damage over time

sage breach
#

I might try that

#

Thank you

prisma charm
#

Ideally I want closer to 5.5k

#

But I’m only 81

#

I kinda feel like atm I’m really just being carried by damage, if things weren’t dead I probably wouldn’t be tanky enough

sage breach
#

Yeah I dont have the best gear, saving up for a big upgrade.

prisma charm
#

What build are you runnin?

sage breach
#

Ice crash zerker

#

Dying feels especially bad cause you gotta build up rage stacks but once you get goin, it’s fun as hell

prisma charm
#

I started this league with generals cry crush zerker, just wasn’t feeling it

#

Had survivability issues in yellow maps, wasn’t really doing good dam, didn’t like how the dam was delayed,

#

A lot of the problem was gear related, but it just felt like I had to put in so much effort paying attention to all the different layers of the build

#

Steel champ I just press 2 buttons plus mobility

#

One to do initial dam, second to clear the screen

sage breach
#

You are describing my issues rn. Except i dont feel like my dam is lackluster. I def feel the lack of survivability on yellow maps

#

Feel like the aura will help tho, and when I get my neck I get really good leech

prisma charm
#

The aura feels almost op

sage breach
#

I agree tho Zerker just doesnt feel like it meshes well with a mechanic that you are eventually gonna take more damage the more you do it

prisma charm
#

It gives you overleech + life reserve auras

#

As a champ it allows me to keep adrenaline up 100% of the time by simply popping a health flask when it fades

#

Thing is, zerker brings the dam. If it’s dead, it’s not hitting you

#

The whole point of zerker is to do massive dam

#

I haven’t done ice crash since it’s first league, so can’t really comment there

#

It’s somewhat of a slower skill right?

#

It hits, then radiates out in steps

sage breach
#

Kinda yea

tired spindle
#

what kinds of build actually excel at the league mechanic? im struggling to find something that feels good to go into the upside down with

prisma charm
#

Well, this steel champ build is cruising with a temp est atm, but I’m not in red maps yet

#

Anything with massive screen clear and speed is going to do well

sage breach
#

Whats the name of that aura?

dire pawn
#

Anyone here used DN this league?

#

I need to fix my flasks

#

Been lazy

#

But that kinda shows just how absurd the clear is atm, haven’t needed to bother with defenses much, and I’m even running 5link effectively atm due to not having -mana and using lifetap rather than gmp

shut magnet
#

"Randomly shift into nightmare" + "Monsters can't be stunned" on high maps might as well read "Your character dies at random times".

vernal isle
#

it prevents stun on shifting?

shut magnet
#

Seems to

vernal isle
#

sounds like an oversight

#

personally I want 3 seconds of stun to accomodate my lag on shift

shut magnet
#

Running along minding my own business, random nightmare shift happens and I'm dead on what felt like that frame and nothing looked stunned

#

I don't hit lag/performance issues on shifts because my machine is OP, so it wasn't that for me

vernal isle
#

by the way, recently thinking on potential atlas tree options that don't make content more rewarding, but less rippy instead

#

I bet there's be some demand for "Portal Disruption: Intervention assassins are stunned for 1 second on arrival"

prisma charm
#

Well, the problem is… it’s hard to not make it more rewarding while also not making it impossible without buying maps

#

Since… the thing you need to run maps itself is a very sellable item

#

The way you make the atlas easier is by taking out watch stones, which inherently caps the rewards too

indigo wolf
# vernal isle I bet there's be some demand for "Portal Disruption: Intervention assassins are ...

Eh, for that to have much value, every other option that improves rewards would also have to be removed.
I guess it would have some value for middle-scale players who don't play enough to produce a 5, 10M DPS build.
But you'd still need to include options that improve rewards and increase risk for the ones that do.
And even middle scale players will continue pushing for most DPS possible (because faster clearing is like a more multiplier on rewards).
And we're back to scaling the game against the top 1% of players.

pastel dirge
#

hey i'm champion supp and my friend is playing tornado shot ballista poison what link should we use ?

prisma charm
#

Are you stacking block? Use the link that gives your buddy your block

pastel dirge
#

vernal isle
prisma charm
#

It’s… people want the best rewards, and feel forced into content that is too difficult for them to obtain them

#

But… there’s nothing forcing anyone to play at that level, you can earn currency and buy stuff from 84+ without leaving white maps,

#

Why would they need to, give the player a way to make things easier when the player could just, not make things harder

#

I purpose keep watchstone unsocketed at times to keep at a specific difficulty until I’m able to improve my gear for example

reef sparrow
#

Hi, is the quality Effect of Energy Blade to get additional Critical Strike Chance an local bonus or an added chance?

prisma charm
#

I would assume that means it’s an “increased crit” modifier on any ability affected by the energy blades buff

#

But…

#

I’m unsure

#

A 10% more additive to the base crit would be rediculous

#

To the point of using it with almost no es just for the crit

reef sparrow
#

Wouldn´t go so far as to say that its usable whitout es but it would be much better!

dark void
#

Anyone Looking to buy a Locus of Corruption?

reef sparrow
#

Did try it out and it looked like the Weapon has the mod. X% increased Critical Strike Chance as Prefix.

vernal isle
#

so for example I want to do scourge or betrayal, but it's also the kind of content where you can die from a lag spike easier than in other content, and is also susceptible to lag spikes

prisma charm
#

Ah

#

That’s definitely an area that messes with me, I’d love to just farm delves, but, I can’t without interacting with trade, for example

#

The game doesn’t make that easy to understand

vernal isle
#

I'd just love GGG to own up to what seems like a well-known fact to me: that their game is not optimized in the best way in relation to their players' computers/connections

prisma charm
#

Or easy to see the ROI of buying scarabs to get sulphite

#

Hmm… I don’t have a comment on the PC spec issue

reef sparrow
#

I conclude Energy Blade Quality is a local Mod for the weapon and should work quite well to scale Crit! Just for anyone wondering.

vernal isle
#

funny enough, I'm on the other side of delves than most people seem to be

#

I would rather map

prisma charm
#

I just like smashing enemies constantly, not having to pick up loot on the way is just much more fun

#

Maps could technically have that, loot drops when you kill the boss, but having all the loot from a map deleted because you can’t complete it, along with the map…

#

I mean, that’s how delve works, but you can’t sell sulphite

#

So it’s less loss

vernal isle
#

Or you backtrack and loot later, provided you didn't use up all portals

#

Delirium kinda forces that anyway

prisma charm
#

Maybe…

#

Add a toggle in the map device

#

Loot drops at end or during

vernal isle
#

because you gotta zoomzoom along wwith the fog, no time to pick up stuff

#

ha
imagine if the lootsplosion went directly into your hideout

prisma charm
#

Yeah, at the top end of juiced maps, having everything drop at the end would be insane

#

🤷 I don’t really know how to remedy that issue

#

Picking up loot at the end would likely end up even slower than looting on the way

#

If it was all stacked there

vernal isle
#

I do love how temples can now be itemized

prisma charm
#

Yes

vernal isle
#

if I built a shit temple, I can just toss it into the "sell later in bulk" pile

#

or run later in bulk, I guess

prisma charm
#

Now do it with Sirius

#

So I can just hold off on fighting him till I have the gear

vernal isle
#

Now if I could sell compressed sulphite too instead of only the scarabs, I'd be a happy camper

#

I wonder if Betrayal could be itemized too, and if so, in what way. "Intelligence bundles" for Mastermind?

#

Doesn't build your board for you, though, so of limited use

So, I am curious if anyone has found a way to make the skill "Dual Strike" actually work.

#

pretty annoying

violet nymph
#

they show up on the map no?

small wigeon
#

i was looking in the minimap and there was nothing

#

😦

violet nymph
#

they might spawn out of range for minimap

#

I just remember the one I got was shown on the full map kinda farish away

small wigeon
#

yea it was also that stupid map with the layout where u find the ankh for clarissa in act 8

#

maybe he was in one of the boats

#

but i checked the ones i could

violet nymph
#

port?

small wigeon
#

well, next time i guess

violet nymph
#

that map bad

small wigeon
#

yea

violet nymph
#

any tips on how to not die in scourges? i get regularly deleted without any warningas a raider with 80% eva and 100% spellsuppresion since i started doing t10+ maps

prisma charm
#

Keep moving

#

Aka don’t get hit enough to die

#

At a certain point your stacks are so high that getting hit is going to kill you

#

Particularly when you have extra dam or turbo map rolls

Anyone have experience playing aurabot or a carry this league? Can't decide between champ aurabot and scion

can you use a divine orb on a militant faith if you need a different templar?

yup

#

nice that's like 30c cheaper

tawny pasture
#

cheaper if you are lucky

violet nymph
#

well divines are really cheap right now

my map got "shifts randomly in and out of nightmare", if i keep scourging it does it change?

#

i hate that modifier

#

so much backtracking

#

Hey peeps

#

Scourged maps are absurd. I'm doing tier 16 maps safely, and I die more often than not doing white/yellow scourged maps, and I don't feel like I'm getting anything for it

I’d try to get a few “rare nightmare mobs drop maps” scourges

The issue I have with scourge is that it's just a complicated, lenghty version of vaal orbs

#

It's just too common to see straight downgrades and objectively useless upgrades

#

That go beyond build niches

Hey all, do the tainted currencies have a stash tab or affinity?

Nope

so what number of corruption stacks do you all stop at in a map? seems like more than 70 or so starts to get really hard.

Does this brick my skele mage build? or cant crit only for my char

that tracks. I went yolo earlier and got to 127.

#

that was... bad

#

but I'm at that delightful point where it's still earlyin the league, I'm in maps, I have no currency, and my gear is ass.

lilac saffron
#

Vaal orbs are arguably less risky and more rewarding than scourging an item on average

restive anvil
#

@lime fractal should be fine

carmine canopy
#

so uh

#

you know how it says Level 58+ Corruption Absorbed under the meter for how much krangle juice you got on an item?

#

At least for maps that's uh

#

not accurate

#

at all

#

because I got progress on this bar in Act 1

#

granted it's not much but still

lilac saffron
#

I think its bugged

astral pumice
#

does scourging it to tier 2 reset tier 1 ?

restive anvil
#

What do you mean reset tier 1?

#

Int he context of maps I've been told that maps tend to keep the mod but most other items in my experience will change

#

Grimro's advice is if a map doesn't scourge a good mod (like rares drop something you want) then just scourge a different map to t1 vs. taking that to t2

#

Once you have a map you want scourge it until you don't want to run it

patent zinc
#

scourging overwrites the previous scourge mods, if that's what u are asking

maiden coral
#

Can the Scourge reality spawn Beyond

#

can

#

and they are still there after nightmare is over

#

Hmm, krangles first couple items, nothing like getting +28 int req as a marauder lol

fossil nimbus
#

is there suggestion too ggg discord or channel?

indigo wolf
#

POE forums is likely the most direct way. They read reddit too but unless your suggestion has traction in the community it won't be popular enough to be seen.

#

They listen to bugs moreso than gameplay feedback or other changes, though.

prisma charm
#

Seems a lot of people stopped playin early

#

Which affects the market

waxen radish
#

I think it could be that scourge league mechanic is just extremely unrewarding unless you do it on high juice and tier

prime wind
#

hey, did GGG mention anything about the sound bugs the game currently has ? especially on breach

prisma charm
#

At high juice/tier the mechanic is super rippy

#

The “randomly enter nightmare” mod made me miss out on a delirium boss

real ingot
#

I genuinely hope Scourge never goes core

celest hound
#

Scourge is super rippy for me even on white maps. Surviving the initial clusterbomb of like 100 mobs in your face is difficult.

real ingot
#

Ain't gonna talk about the rewards?

celest hound
#

Can't get rewards if you can't do the content 🙂

real ingot
#

True, yes

#

I hope next league isn't "OOOOHH LOOK AT ALL THIS MOBS, AND ALL THE MODS THEY HAVE"

celest hound
#

my rewards are my stash tabs full of shitty krangles, a sad and pathetic trophy case

real ingot
#

I'd rather have a crafting league...

haughty oracle
#

Golden Blood, Anomalous Aura or Stabilising Energy max ?

celest hound
#

I'd rather they tone down the packsizes in scourges, but it may just be I chose a bad build for the mechanic. Something like good old ED/cont would be doing better than Storm Brand.

#

maybe I need an explodey chest, something like that

#

but it seems like the key is to wipe packs WAY faster

surreal bolt
#

Do maps gain an additional upside/downside modifier at specific scourge tiers vs just making the existing downside stronger or is it random?

prisma charm
#

The scourged map rewards can be very good

#

Maps, fossils, catalysts, oils, scarabs, etc on killing nightmare rares

#

If you can survive it

#

I struggle in nightmares at 50+ stacks in t10 and up

#

Imo the damage boost from stacks simply needs to be halved

storm crown
#

would make sense if it was -1 of an other charge.

violet nymph
#

If you pop V and you get deleted, maybe work on your build?

#

But white maps tho..

#

You can only fk it up if you have terrible stats.., what are u running

celest hound
#

"keep moving" doesn't really help when it's immediately on entering the nightmare and I'm not moving yet

#

Storm Brand hiero, fwiw. if I get unlucky and warp into a really dense area, I'm in trouble.

#

let's not be elitist and assume everyone is facetanking T16 maps 1 week into the league

violet nymph
#

Ok, let's ask differently: what are you doing to fix your problem?

celest hound
#

trying different tactics, like always having a wall at my back to not get surrounded, and laying down all my brands first before entering. Plan is to not use the Cloak of Defiance I normally would for this build, and look into Inpulsa instead to try and blow up packs faster. I know it'll get better with levels and gear, my point is more that the league mechanic is hard to engage with early when you are undergeared.

#

I guess my main complaint is that you reach a point where you have too many corruption stacks relative to your build strength at the time, so you are faced with just abandoning the mechanic. That doesn't feel good.

prisma charm
#

I mean, ona super dense map it’s not hard to reach 150+ by the end

#

That’s a massive dam boost

celest hound
#

yeah, I know. Most I've ever survived is 127

prisma charm
#

Throw on “more” dam map mods like most yellow maps have, and your gonna die if you get stuck in a wall

celest hound
#

But like just now, I did a Museum map and popped into the nightmare in a corner of a small room, and the whole room was FILLED with mobs. Just so dense

prisma charm
#

They are stunned in that situation

#

I assume you can’t 1shot the whole room?

celest hound
#

Not with storm brand, no

prisma charm
#

Ouch

celest hound
#

but honestly... "one shot the whole room instantly or die instantly" is a pretty shitty mechanic

prisma charm
#

Agreed

celest hound
#

I expect this will get better once I get an inpulsa and can get some explosions going

prisma charm
#

My build feels like tornado shot of old

#

Attack ground, whole room explodes

celest hound
#

But I hear you, big aoe builds are going to have a better time in scourges

prisma charm
#

I had a fine time with my cyclone generals cry, but.. it’s also always moving

#

Brands have to be put on the ground first

celest hound
#

I can do that, and then pop the nightmare

#

that helps

prisma charm
#

But, that said

#

Given that I screen clear with 1 attack

#

And still get smashed in nighthmare

#

I have 40% evasion, 30% spell suppress, 8k armor, 5.3k life + petrified blood, all before jade/quarts flask,

#

Oh, and 40% attack block and some spell block

#

Lol

celest hound
#

yeah. I may have just chosen a build that doesn't mesh well with the league

prisma charm
#

Champ, so perma fortify

#

In other words I’m quite tanky And it’s still rippy

celest hound
#

I've been hearing that

#

I wonder how summoners are doing

dense ruin
#

Spectres handles it pretty well actually

#

Mostly because of dps

#

But you are prone to getting one shot if the mob ever touches you

celest hound
#

sounds about right

elder pawn
#

I'm playing storm brand too and it feels good. Inpulsa's is really strong

celest hound
#

crit or EO?

elder pawn
#

yeah crit as inquisitor

prisma charm
#

Kill or be killed

celest hound
#

just gotta grind for gear upgrades and hope

indigo wolf
#

I feel like there are only specific kinds of mobs that kill you.
The tuning on that screech damage buff helped.

#

But there are still other mobs. There's a pack of skeleton-archer type mods that delete me if I stop anywhere close to them

#

Some kind of walking simulator build is probably ideal. I am cold dot but I still have delay between dropping vortexes

celest hound
#

this is hilariously ghetto but CWDT+voidsphere sorta works

prisma charm
#

Getting savior really helped my survivability in nightmares

#

Having 2 clones running around clearing the screen for me as I leap by

#

Wonder if there’s some kind of… ignite build that could be linked to a movement skill, just leap through the map, starting the prolif on landing and that clearing

#

Or bleed/poison etc

#

Mjolnir build I had a while back kinda felt that way, arc on landing clearing packs

celest hound
#

can confirm, slapping on an inpulsa's helped a lot in scourges. seems "aoe any way you can get it" is the name of this league

chilly depot
#

Hey quick question, what are some decent league starters that people are running?

rustic mountain
#

I'm pretty sure I just found a janky interaction with new fortify

#

looks like every "fortifying hit" is a separate buff for mantra of flames

steep dock
#

That's just a feature

rustic mountain
#

I mean it lets me get hundreds of stacks soooooo

steep dock

#

@rustic mountain flicker strike slayer build would be fun with that

rustic mountain
#

I already have a build @merry gate and it’s bone shatter with soul thirst 1 minute flasks.

merry gate
#

Is there a guide or pob for that? Sounds interesting

rustic mountain
#

Self rolled. Did it last league and have a theory raft

#

I just started the league today but I did something close enough last league

#

It can get a couple hundred million dps if you go super dumb with it

#

And a couple hundred million life rehen

wide anchor
#

is patch already live?

celest hound
#

That sounds incredibly broken.

rustic mountain
#

I’m probably gonna cap out at 30aps on this one and probably not need a brightbeak to do so

#

No ms

#

if this works which it should?

#

Last league I capped at 22m and called it good enough

#

Granted needs absolutely everything perfect and the I harvested the dude for parts and just kept him farming

jagged marsh
#

no drop yet?

merry gate
#

@rustic mountain that sounds absolutely insane and fun. Which ascendancy?

vast gazelle
#

maybe some offline drops but regardless that is t0 im pretty sure

rustic mountain
#

juggernaut

#

for the regen

#

and taking the 3% es keystone too

#

since you prevent 90% of boneshatter damage

#

and use divergent boneshatter

#

its free real estate

#

I think I put myself at max 900 trauma stacks if the king engine got roaring

#

because I didnt want to get multiple mirrors worth of temp chains scaling in there too

celest hound
#

this is intriguing but sounds hella expensive

rustic mountain
#

I think the get in cost is <2 ex

#

the filthy console peasant cost is dumb and I'm not doing it either

cedar umbra
#

The irony of the downside is kinda funny

rustic mountain
#

again, I've done this once but I'm trying something like, 45 degrees off of it

#

so I might be blowing smoke

#

trying to figure it out

celest hound
#

I don't usually play melee builds but for some reason I'm interested in seeing how this handles scourge content

rustic mountain
#

what I think non crit version will do:

#

thats assuming you hit 420 trauma stacks

celest hound
#

crazy.

rustic mountain
#

the problem with this last league was always the cold start

#

I'm hoping soulthirst gives me what I need there

lethal anvil
#

does anyone know where I can find info on the delve recipes? I've been to like 20 azrite nodes and not a single recipe

indigo wolf
#

They were moved to maps

lethal anvil
#

just all maps or certain ones?

indigo wolf
#

Check the undiscovered recipes on the crafting bench

#

Certain maps, just like the other map-found recipes.

lethal anvil
#

ah cool thanks for the help

celest hound
#

How are you able to survive having so many trauma stacks?

rustic mountain
#

juggernaut

#

hard requirement to get 90% PDR

#

then you use fortify and arctic armor to reduce even further

#

puts it at like, 6% damage taken?

#

this one has 5k life 1k es

#

which if we go backwards means

#

100k damage in a single phys hit we can live. If we look at lvl 8 boneshatter, thats ~ 75 damage

#

1300 stacks

#

if we do 20, thats ~240 damage, and we can tank 416 stacks (so probably no)

#

you are net positive on regen at 90% PDR with just the unbreakable ascendancy node

#

and even more ridiculously positive with the ES node

#

the ES keystone

#

Divine shield

celest hound
#

seems like there would still be a very small window where you take a massive trauma hit where you could get plinked and die before the huge regen kicks in, but maybe that's not really a problem

rustic mountain
#

your regen per second outpaces your trauma per second pretty much always

#

sec, I'll snip something

celest hound
#

no, I was thinking of the "take x damage when you gain trauma" - I assume that's a straight phys hit, not a degen

rustic mountain
#

from someone else:

#

look at the main hand fire damage and aps

#

yeah so Unsmith your regen ramps up faster than the trauma will kill you

#

as long as you arent chunking your whole health

#

and with the new ES Keystone, you basically have a 0.01 second gap where you are chunked

#

again, if this works the way its written

celest hound
#

I get the theory, yeah. so you intentionally cap your boneshatter at a level where the damage per trauma meets a number of max stacks you're comfortable with

rustic mountain
#

basically

#

if you saw earlier

indigo wolf
#

lol DPS overflow

rustic mountain
#

to chunk my health completely you would need 1300 trauma

celest hound
#

and I guess to achieve 90% PDR you're going for all the phys reduction you can get your hands on

rustic mountain
#

which means 650 trauma you are chunking half your HP

celest hound
#

this is really interesting

#

how much armor are you projecting you'll need?

rustic mountain
#

not really any

#

I'm using determination cause I can

#

but endurance charges gets me my PDR

#

I use determination to just get me an armor value so my ES can regen

#

cause all my gear is ES gear

#

(planned)

celest hound
#

hm, to get 90% PDR with just endurance charges and jugg, that would have to be 18 charges unless I'm missing another source of PDR

rustic mountain
#

unrelenting + enduring cry + some warcry buff effect

#

and summon chaos golem, soul of grukthul, and soul of lunaris

celest hound
#

ah, I misunderstood as it coming only from endurance charges

rustic mountain
#

sorry it all adds up

celest hound
#

yep, I see it. call to arms for instant repeatable cast?

#

and I guess divergent enduring cry to get the cooldown as low as possible

#

oh whoops, that doesn't work

rustic mountain
#

mutewind pennant

celest hound
#

I'm guessing with a combination of duration and cooldown recovery that you're more or less always under the warcry effect

rustic mountain
#

I am using self curse temp chains too

#

again, thats the plan, not what I'm currently doing

#

I'm fresh in league for 3.16

celest hound
#

hm... good idea, since IIRC temp chains doesn't affect cooldown. Shackles?

rustic mountain
#

yep

#

I have one with rotblood too

#

thinking about that + supreme ego but it's only a 20% more

celest hound
#

I don't know why I'm so interested in this, but it sounds awesome

rustic mountain
#

its meme-y

#

I'm doing this as probably my only 3.16 dude

celest hound
#

the idea of getting pure 90% PDR is just wacky (to me)

rustic mountain
#

its always been pretty easy

#

not hard to get 10 endurance charges

celest hound
#

probably, but I suck at theorcrafting so these ideas don't occur to me

rustic mountain
#

with 10 you dont even need the additional 1% PDR ascendancy node

#

determination armor keeps you at 90% at 100k which is enough

celest hound
#

I'm not sure where the 10th endurance charge comes from

rustic mountain
#

boots

#

warlord boots

celest hound
#

oh, death's door... or that, yeah

rustic mountain
#

its an easy/ cheap ish mod

#

shoot seeing low end of 2c

celest hound
#

with that many stacks, you probably don't need any damage mods, all the damage comes from stacking 2% more hundreds of times

rustic mountain
#

honestly the best damage mods are

#

YUnyielding from asc node

#

and disciple of the unyielding

#

all of it gives great BS stuff

#

more stun -> bigger aoe

#

increased damageto scale with the mores

celest hound
#

yep

rustic mountain
#

just never do an ele reflect map

#

😄

#

#

oh this is the thing you said earlier about mantra of flames

I didnt know fortify would

#

yay double dip

celest hound

🙂

real ingot
#

WAIT THEY COULD HAVE DONE THIS FROM THE START

livid apex
#

Should have, even

#

The trick of the matter, I think, is that it’s not as simple as excluding matching modifier tags

#

And takes manual cataloguing of relationships between mods

celest hound
#

@rustic mountain are you not taking Unstoppable?

rustic mountain
#

I am

celest hound
#

trying to suss out which one you're not taking, all seem good for this

#

I guess Unrelenting can go, and make up the chaos res on gear.

Hey guys, anyone knows how to unlock 3rd map furnace?

indigo wolf
#

There's 3?

prisma charm
#

If there is, I’d assume it’s by doing maps.

#

🤷‍♂️

fiery tartan
#

I think something is wrong with this league

prisma charm
#

Nah

#

That’s not a new problem

fiery tartan
#

It scared the crap outta me

#

send halp

vestal token
#

didnt they change this?

livid apex
#

It's not in yet

prisma charm
#

Not yet

livid apex
#

They really should have been clearer about that lmao

prisma charm
#

Like making it part of a separate post rather than on the same post as actual patch notes

livid apex
#

Or even "The above changes are going live, this one will be going live next week"

#

instead of "We have additional changes planned" with no clear indication that said change was it

grand ibex
#

Well at least they are addressing it and have a plan 3 days into the league unlike other games that don’t give a fuck

#

This is a free game, and probably the best value of free games out there because they actually care about us

#

Blizzard be having server problems since 1982 and their fix is sexually harassing your girlfriend, and you gotta pay them for the privilege.

#

Does this mean if I don't have 6k life I will insta-rip lol

grand ibex
#

Hell yeah bro, get wrecked

prime wind
#

how do you get flawless breachstones ?

prime wind
livid apex
#

1,500 after regular resistance cap

mint salmon
#

thank you, i was like well shit there goes that map lol

prime wind
#

the fire dmg can rise a lot

#

did one with 12k, seen one with 18k

#

same on any form of dmg. Can get same on phys dmg too

#

did one with 6k phys dmg, dmg is rough

indigo wolf
#

There is one mod that deals specifically life damage per second, I forget if it's typed

#

Hard counter CI and not all that nice for low life either

prisma charm
#

.2%, and then a flat number per second after

#

It’s a counter to builds without much recovery

#

It hurts my build a bit because I rely on recovery for survival

#

With petrified blood

#

But so far it hasn’t been… a hard counter

#

Just an annoyance

#

Better than the mobs do more dam

quartz echo
#

Oh i got that mod all the way up to 1200 per second.

#

I was fine until I ran out of shit to kill. Also a map where I couldn't manually teleport out of nightmare so I either depleted the bar or died. xD

prime wind
#

the .2% is on es only. And it's phys dmg so it's managable. The 300 life per sec is deadly to CI and low life yeah. Without leech or high regen you're fucked

#

300 es per sec exists as well

#

I just cook maps as far as I can manage the dmg/sec on those. Define what your max is and just stop cooking as soon as it reaches those numbers

Long time player, uber casual and often vocal constructive criticizer on the lack of attention payed to making the game "fun" for all players (especially casuals). ...

and I have to say, I am enjoying Scourge quite a bit. Took a little, but once I made it maps last night, and did a couple it's actually fun.

I don't feel like I am crippled and forgotten as a player with limited time, and no real desire to spend hours and hours farming currency. Our lifetimes are limited, and I've got other priorities.

Simplifying the Atlas was great so far, still progressing but it doesnt feel like such an endless uphill battle.

Scourge maps are cool and interesting, and I don't feel over whelmed like with that one league where we played at tower defense.

Moving recipes out of delve was great, although I miss having access to some of them immediately at the end of Act 10 to help craft some basic resists gear. Mostly talking about 2/3/4 sockets and using that to get the right socket colors on something that has the resists I need. I think it'd be nice to have the 2/3/4 sockets on the tier 1 maps.

Still waiting on more UI, Stash, Maps QOL fixes. There are a lot of things yall could be doing in this space, and shit, I'd even pay for stuff through the store to make it happen. Being able to assign a quad tab as the default for gear, or assign a tab as the default for green gems etc would make organizing things less of a chore.

Lastly, the skill tree updates are great, love the masteries.

anyhow, thanks, the update.

shrewd vortex
#

I got an ilvl 63 quill rain, scourged it twice (so it's Tier 2 at bottom of tooltip), and the bar is max in the crucible, but i can't scourge it again (the Transform button is just greyed out)
Is there a minimum ilvl for Tier 3 scourges?

prisma charm
#

The gem one would be nice, ability to make any tab gem affinity

brisk stirrup
#

After clearing the nightmare part of a map, how to stop auto switching to it on scourge map?

indigo wolf
#

If it's an automap, don't think you can.

#

Doubt it stops even if you literally kill 100% of scourge monsters.

brisk stirrup
#

So I need to spam v for the remaining map?

indigo wolf
#

I wasn't aware you could control when you exit scourge on those types of maps

prisma charm
#

You can on some of them

#

The one that swaps you at 100%

#

It’s super annoying

indigo wolf
#

I was thinking of the one that "shift into nightmare randomly" or whatever

prisma charm
#

Because it doesn’t decay unless you kill something

#

And if they’re all dead…

#

Random one needs to go

#

It’s so bad

agile idol
#

oh yeah im feeling those scourge tier 3 drop buffs now. Behold

#

the physical-less impale phys bow

#

im gonna choke

shut magnet
#

I'm blowing away my personal record for number of deaths this league

#

I've been stuck at 94 since Tuesday, because I can't resist the "press v to die" button

#

Scourged maps are pretty good since the change though, even if I die a few times. I've just decided I've stopped caring about XP lol. I ran a rares drop 2 maps on a T15 and walked out with pretty much a full inventory of T15/T16 maps

prisma charm
#

What I do is skip nightmares when I’m above 50%

#

Till I level then I spam them again

shut magnet
#

Oh I know that's what I should do

#

But the button is so shiny

prisma charm
#

Yeah, and it’s like, maybe this time I’ll survive

#

🙃

shut magnet
#

Also I don't know if you've had a chance to blow up screens of nightmare mobs in a big quant T16 maps around 200 stacks of corruption

#

But the loot is real

#

Since the patch

prisma charm
#

Not t16 yet, but I’ve had some high quant 13’s

#

Before patch

#

Haven’t had a chance to do much after the patch

shut magnet
#

It's way better now. Apparently there was diminishing returns on the quant from the corruption exposure, and they got rid of it

prisma charm
#

Trying to push up to 92, 89 atm, so kinda skipping a bit on nightmares

#

Also getting my maven shtuff out of the way

#

Some of those combos can be rippy

delicate plover
#

Do I put a 5 linked 6 socket item or whats the best play to place in the thing

prisma charm
#

I don’t understand the question

#

6 links are better than 5, ?

#

But 5 links are good

glass folio
#

question for anyone who might have an answer, is there a good place to get an overview of how the league is going/what builds are popular/what is the general feel? i dont really want to scroll through pages of reddit. just had my first kid a few weeks ago and havent really had time to look things up, debating about whether i should try scourge or not

coarse totem
#

Can at least look at builds on ninja

#

easily understandable, he landed some pretty dope starters too

damn this league loves crashing

#

I was super stoked about the tornado skill this league. Turns out, 3 people on poe.ninja are using it. What a shitshow :/

prisma charm
#

Honestly doesn’t look great even in the introduction video

#

It’s slow

#

You have to put it up, then grow it,

dreamy karma
#

The buffs are nuts

prisma charm
#

You can only have 1 active,

dreamy karma
#

Idk what ggg was thinking

#

At 200 stacks in a 100 Quant map

#

Before you'd be at 300 quant

#

Now ur at 5250 Quant

prisma charm
#

Well,

#

Iunno.

#

On one hand I think the difficult warrants great reward

dreamy karma
#

That's a bit too great imo

#

Lol

prisma charm
#

But on the other once you can deal with the risk…

dreamy karma
#

It'd x17.5 Quant

#

Compared to before

#

Its

prisma charm
#

I’d rather they had gone in the opposite direction

#

Reduce the risk

#

Getting 1shot by things that cross the screen in a half second is… a bit much

livid apex
#

tornado is good but it requires you to spend time pressing buttons and thinking about breakpoints that you could be spending turboing to high level maps

cobalt field
#

Isn't tornado a secondary skill anyways

#

I have it in a 3l and it's noticeably boosted my boss dps, it's nice

indigo wolf
#

Does Alternate History (crucible skill) just mean you can scourge uniques, or does it mean you have a chance of turning a non-unique base into a unique?

livid apex
#

The former

violet nymph
#

I wish they added synthesis to core instead of expedition

#

I miss synthesis and build a map fun.

livid apex
#

Synth coming back at some point would be neat

violet nymph
#

It doesn't fit current poe genre! Ignore the wandering between dimension beings, time travel, a bored female interstellar boss, etc

#

Buuuuuuut I also think that determine crafting like harvest and others should be REALLY outrageous.

#

For this league though, leveling compared to expedition was better. Using the league mechanic wasn't a chore, it felt like a rush.

#

I just feel they should have waited one season to put expedition in. Give everyone a visual and audio break.

indigo wolf
#

I wonder if I wouldn't prefer synth's ability to manipulate implicits over harvest

#

I didn't play the league but it looked like it was deterministic, it was just an obtuse mess. Like any other crafting.
But a site could solve that. Plug in the implicit you want, it will tell you what fractured items you need.

prisma charm
#

i didn't like synth

#

harvest... is just so much simpler and more powerful

eternal badger
#

well then.. not even a pair with 2 whites anywhere online lol

#

i have to post this here, i legit loled, this isn't mine. he tried to sell it to me right before tier 3 scourge

#

Did you enjoy the new changes for the scourge mechanichs so far guys ?

I still feel like the risk/time invested isnt worth the rewards

honest fern
#

Most say the same thing. Not worth it

#

Hello peeps. Does anyone know if breach gets juiced by shifting into nightmare realm?

prisma charm
#

totally worth it if you get super lucky and get an OP scourge
