as for summon builds, it's my least favorite of all arpg existed
simply hate AG and spectres
yeah i don't see summons played SUPER often in poe. holy sigil is around ig
golems are a joke tho
I hate the concept that a skill requires expensive things to use, and even then you can lose them in a fight
Fireball + blight to clearing maps, detonate dead + blight for bosses
Don't figure out how to use another skills well yet
yeah some skills combo
my build this league is just one attack skill with defensive layering options
you don't necessarily NEED to run multiple damage skills. some builds like it tho
i was playing a ci ephemeral edge frost blades trickster, which means nothing to you kirra, but might be relevant to minimap
i have about 210 hours myself, so i'm somewhat new
(i chose frost blades because i liked how it felt, not because it was the best option)
https://pobb.in/duugIYAwePN6 < that's my endgame version
https://pobb.in/3dvsIZtVsvH5 < this is what i have currently. i think i'm done for the season tho
Done act 1 and start act 2! The game is quite fun
Gratz c:
good job! you beat the hardest part of the game (excluding endgame t17's.)
oh well then I meet the server connection issue and it stop me to keep playing...Good reminder to take a shower and have a good rest after play poe 3h
fk t17 in particular, and the person making t17 in specific ๐
I keep opening this page once I open Chrome everyday but I never check them out because no power drive me to do ๐
I don't get why necromancer is act as a sorcerer more than a summoner in D4 even it's a necromancer ๐คทโโ๏ธ
And about d4...The gaslight site is D4 now due to the pre-stream ๐คญ
Never used Twitch.. remember 1 person paid for me to watch somebody but forget my pass since then๐
season 6 sounds pretty fun so far, hope it is
for d4 i mean
watching the campfire chat
i guess i should check out season 5, but i was gonna check out Witchfire maybe
and season 5 only has a few days left anyway
oh okay, i thought it ended on the 6th or something
I mean I could be wrong
I didn't check myself
But coming from D3 they would usually end season like a week before new season or something
@gilded elm lol. Received the respond for my application of that job just now... Yeah no surprise ๐
๐ Hope that people who EHG had selected bring us more impressive environment designs of course.
Such a pity that I can't know who's EHG selected for this job, I want to check out works from this people to learn something
Empty paper is the best description for me... Cruel fact indeed
No one knows when next chance will come ๐ซก
Unfortunate, but expected. Tech hiring has been very competitive these past few years, especially for entry-level positions. Your best bet is to continue to improve your portfolio and keep applying to as many other companies as you can, you have nothing to lose by applying. Many entry-level candidates go through hundreds of applications before even being considered for an interview. Just keep trying, there's tons of game dev studios.
it should be!
Noticed they added many Wow futures into D4.
its going to be arpg-mmoarpg in the end. D3,D4,WoW,bit of LE thats diablo 4 nowdays. D2 i didnt add it extra cause the runewords they posted are not runewords.
I mean. I think itโll be an MMO in the sense Destiny 2 is an MMO, which is โnot really.โ They did consult Destiny 2โs team at Bungie, after all.
caster, but with some cool color theme
wow futures? what future?
we don't even know the next few wow expansions to know its future
We know a bit
well if only someone could tell me btc future
haha but if I want to deep in diablo-like APRG...Not much choice actually.
Basic requirement for working in a game studio: You're passionate at their games. 
Well... Maybe I even don't play their games yet ๐
just look at d4 and see how true this statement is
the d4 devs are clearly passionate about d4
itโs just a shame they work in one of the worst work environments
(blizzard)
some are, like adam jackson
many others don't
I can't refund active nodes so only one chance to select which node is the next one I want to active?
Go to Kingsmarch, talk to Faustus so you can respec with gold. It's very cheap to respec with gold earlier, and late game you will have basically unlimited respec points.
oh I don't know where Kingmarch is even so it means the game don't allow me to refund points yet
league location, only this league has
are we seriously in POE 2? or is that 1?
poe2 is next month
Nooooo. I want my Vessel of Hatred first
VoH is only a few days away, there's over a whole month until PoE2 so should be plenty of time
what I'm actually amazed is how so many people are still very engaged in s5, like, judging the amount of contents d4 has, wtf are they engaged in
even as content rich as poe, I can never think of possibility to keep myself engaed for more than 1 month
people are weird.
VoH Oct. 7th / 8th, PoE2 Nov. 15th
so there's plenty of time
I think PoE2 is nov. 15th anyway
and d4, why is it inflated to 133gb already
prolly my 1st ever game above 100gb installation size
You probably have High Resolution textures installed, they get installed by default.
Don't need it though unless you are playing at 4K or downsampling 4K
yeah
mine's 72.9 tho, is vessel of hatred that big?
i think the original was 40gb no?
I play at 2k ultrawide, so it's kind of weird place, the basic texture is only 1080p max
40-45gb yes
The normal textures should be 1440p
they did say ingame that basic texture is for 1080p max
Which option are you reading?
texture
it's either 1080p or 4k, no in between
None of this says the non-high res assets are limited to 1080p. It's even implying that 1440p textures are included in the base textures.
I don't even see anywhere such implication, in fact I understand opposite
High Res = 4k textures for Ultra quality.
Which means that even 4k textures for up to "High" quality are inclued in the base textures.
It's there in plain English.
also, all the reddit posts say that if you have a monitor of 2k and above, better install hires pack, the difference is noticeable
idk, even on the base textures it'd just be slightly blurry. Worth that over the install space imo
yes if I need that space for something else, but I'm not that tight on space
Depending on your graphics settings, there might be some kind of downsampling from the high res textures if they're installed. Downsampling 4k textures to 1440p will usually look better than native 1440p.
ultra, otherwise it's not worth it to install hires at all, the only purpose of the pack is to enable ultra option
But that would be kinda weird, usually you would use something like NVidia DL DSR to do that, so no idea.
also my monitor is big, 34" 2k ultrawide, detail difference is more noticeable
smaller monitors I guess it doesn't matter at all
Depends on resolution, sure.
1080p is big enough for me, but my desk is pretty narrow so my monitor is like right in my face
Monitor size and resolution will affect how many pixels per inch you can fit, so quality will vary between different sizes of monitors for the same resolution, yes.
i just had to buy a new one cause my other one died on me, i'm not sure how big this one is
24.5 inches i think
kind of weird having a flat monitor again, i liked my old curved msi monitor
curve is love
played enough years to know what futures
i see what they are doing and where they are planning to end up. no need university to understand.
thats wow future.
well idk about that, as far as I can see, d4 will still remain an arpg till at least season 30
thats wow future
they copy-paste anythink possible to survive the ultra hit is comming in near future
look pretty much arpg to me
i don't think titan quest 2 will have a big impact player wise, i think it'll have an audience tho
the only things that scream wow to me are multiple skill bars, forced party contents, so I don't see anything wow in d4 for now
the higher mastercard will be the king. Diablo 4 trueform is near to be finished.
u dont see cause u have no idea
thats a think.
I think I have a lot of ideas
poe2 is wow cause it has wasd movement
but has Dark souls elements too i heard
the only dark souls element is dodge roll, but that's not a dark souls element
I just ignore tribalism. Play what you have fun playing. I'm in PoE mode for now, but D4 is still the most popular mainstream ARPG on the market and I'll def be checking out the expansion for a couple weeks then jump into PoE 2 and hop between seasons, what a time to be alive for an ARPG fan.
ofc you are free to play or say whatever u think its correct. We spend years gaming diablo 2 and wow so personally have other idea about them.
i just will sit back and watch them till 2030.
i honestly don't know if i'll like poe2, i find wasd movement annoying. I know it's optional, but it looked like it's kind of designed with wasd in mind
but i'll probably also adjust so who knows
depending on builds, non telegraphic builds are great with wasd
I was in middle school when D2 first came out and really loved it, great game. But D2 is a bad game in 2024. If Blizzard made a game that was exactly like D2 with updated graphics, nobody would play it.
do you know what its bad game?
they did make d2 with updated graphics tho and people play it
you must add exception: old d2 fans
d2 resurrected
Relatively speaking, nobody plays it.
D2R is great, I love it, but it's a trip down memory lane
Not an actual game I want to play regularly
fair
cause now days Rpg players either they play arpg or rpg. they dont wanna grind. reason Mastercards are on fire
Diablo 2 had tons of Grind which for this generation is too hardcore. Reason diablo 2 is so bad but has still big playerbase and Moding servers on top.
d2r doesn't click with younger players, and even for old players, a huge part of the 5M copies sold are bots
i wonder how many play project diablo 2 in comparison, my friend is exited for the new season
it's great, but I can't stand the graphics
i will take 6 years break of this scam and see their progress into time.
Thank goodness for the culture shift in gaming. I came to respect the shift away from unfun grinding as I got older.
yup
yep enjoy copy-paste coctail arpg wanna be ๐
well, we enjoy whatever we do, or do we have a fun police?
see ya in 2030 gl and have fun ๐
Man, zanzil
I'm sometimes not sure if you're just intentionally trying to annoy people or not
you called police? Nub is here
good lord, he totally misunderstood me
i'm not even sure what the conversation is about
me neither laters ๐
anyway that witchfire game is pretty alright, i've been playing it waiting for VoH
kind of repetitive starting out tho, but opens up a tad
takes a while tho
The reason D4 is so popular is because it captures a wider audience of people who don't have time to grind. It's an easy game to pick up and put down, and I suspect that's why it has comparably good retention, there's less burnout among its playerbase because they aren't the type of players who nolife the game.
the worst thing a human can do to another human, is to ridicule what other people enjoy, so I wonder
Also the name "Diablo" sells
it's better now tho
Launch was a completely different game and Blizzard did an interview explaining how that ended up happening lol
we all know before s4, it's diablo patch 0.5, EA version
They basically tried to recreate the same grindy experience of D2 and said they were surprised when people didn't like that
Oh, the irony.
we have 4 seasons of EA from s0-3
i think they misunderstood what people wanted from D2 maybe, but most D2 players don't grind out to 100 anyway
so idk what they were doing
They specifically mentioned the Holy Grail, I think
oh, i see
i personally can understand that. its normal nobody has so much time to invest grind so much.
its better like this. Those who wanna play original arpg aka D2 moded or non can play.. others can play D4 instead.
yeah idk, only a few really do holy grail runs like streamers and stuff
i did Holy Grail 4 years offline in D2.
They basically modeled a large part of the D4 experience around D2 Holy Grail runs, apparently lol
That's why ubers were so stupid rare
Like winning a lottery
Behind this grind is the fun but its hard to explain.
the rest be like spirit shako arach mara
enigma is out of the question
d2 tyrael's might too
imagine playing 1 game 4 years and still finding new items..
i've never seen one drop personally
lucky I'm not a part of that, tyrael in d2 is a bad item
It's been too long since I played, but I bet there's a handful of items I've never seen in D2. Probably buried somewhere in all of my Baal run trauma.
in 4 years casual grind i saw 1 Ravenlore droping
had 1 Zod drop also
thats the dopamine hits which are immortal during the years.
to get insane drops with high rolls etc
but ofc requires tons of farm/grind.
It feels good but that's not the experience you want to create IMO, it's unhealthy for the game long-term.
dictatorship opinion incoming
yes its too hardcore what i said. better have diablo 4 like this so both playbase are happy.
That's why crafting systems like you see in LE and PoE are so good, because you can take a bad item and turn it into something decent, or you can take a good item and turn it into something amazing. You want players to have some control over farming instead of just making everything RNG.
not everyone is a gambling addict
i wish there was more to do with blue and rare items in d4, in the expansion they'll just go to auto-salvage on torment I or something
missed oppurtunity
well if you add LE crafting it will become LE right
They'll probably get there, eventually. They need to shift over to a "base item" type system like PoE and LE.
i'm also concerned about the raid tbh, i hope it doesn't feel mandatory. I don't have friends that play and if it's complex enough pugging would be a headache
i enjoy LE crafting a lot just slaming is not my favourite lately
fk all party based contents, I just want to be a loner
Ideally you have a static group of friends, but yeah not everyone can commit to that. I'd probably approach it like I did with Lost Ark raids, just find a group to play with regularly.
Raids is wow future btw include marking etc
Probably more like Lost Ark raiding, which is more of a social ARPG than it is an MMO.
also heard in those raids going to be Pvp
Looked more like Lost Ark raids, any way
never played Lost ark or going to. did raided in wow for years and what i see is copy-paste wow.
retail wow too.
Because everything is a copypaste according to you
Oh no, the game has movement
it's a copy-paste of wow
it is lol
Too small to be a WoW raid
wow raids start 40 man into 25 man into 10 man
Yes, and D4 raids are small like in Lost Ark, 4 person
At least the first raid, Dark Citadel
this is 99% copy paste from wow lols
lucky I don't play wow at all, idk and don't care what copy what, the only question that should be asked is : is it fun
These kinds of raids are fun if you enjoy co-operative mechanics. Even if one or two people is jailing you in the raid, it's fun with friends for banter etc
idk why people care about anything in a game other than being fun nowadays
if you find it fun you play, if you don't, stop, simple as that
@desert jasper have u ever played wow?
i dont wanna argue with this just wondering
I believe I've told you before
I've played it to lvl 20 because a friend kept demanding that I play it
and it was the most miserable experience in gaming that I've ever had
so since you people never played wow how u know if its copy-paste or not
how u put an opinion or try to argue about something since u have no experience on it
And you never played diablo3 but you were fast to say that monk in D3 is just copypaste from wow...
Gee
There is probably gonna be gatekeeping in pugs though, depending on how hard the raid turns out to be. If it's decently hard, getting into public parties will be difficult.
Nah, don't think I will.
rofl ๐ whatever i like this. is like i wanna say something Wukong vs Baldurs gate but i never played any of those games
yeah another worry of mine. If it becomes gear checks where you get kicked out despite being able to do the content like in Lost Ark or WoW i'm out tbh
You should, they're both great games.
was an example mate for him ๐ played both and yes both was amazing games
specially Wukong super good optimized
It will be, unless Blizzard dumbs down the content and then it becomes less fun. Gatekeeping challenging content is a difficult problem to solve and yeah it's a big reason people quit Lost Ark.
Yeah you just conveniently ignore that I did try out wow
But since I didn't play to the very end game etc I "didn't play it"
You can usually tell quite fast if you like a game or no
try something out isnt enough to earn the max experience vs 800 days played
what do u think? ๐
Ah yes, most people max the experience & play a single game for 800 days
only to talk down to other people
"Your experience with the game isn't valid"
i enjoy your stories tell me more ๐
Which is absurd, of course. Your experience is always valid, nobody can tell you your own experience is wrong just because it doesn't match theirs.
my experience is not only with Wow but with Blizzard on general
was happy and ultra hooked when first time d2 got released same as Wow did.
2018 wow got released and same nostalgia again.
but was unhappy with other thinks which are useless to point out here.
vanilla wow was about the journey tho, and then they designed the later game in such a way to rush you into endgame which a lot of people hate. Do people that didn't do Ahn'Qiraj 40 in vanilla or Naxx or MC not have valid experiences?
Vanilla wow was ultra full at 2018 release
once Corona appeared even more
i will never forget to have 10-13 hours Dayli que in order to play the game (over a month)
was Woltk Gehennas Horde server. before that each new raid patch we had issues
its 20 years mmo-rpg game and they put 0 effort into it.
same they did with Diablo 2
only Fun base aka Modders keep improving the game instead.

ehm u see is useless to share this kind of info here since nobody play that xD

๐
my best experience ever in rpg game was Naxx40 speedruns as melee dps/tank.
10/10
How dare you guys talk about WoW in Last Epoch. ๐
wow, what is wow
wow? i don't know, wow
I might see Guild Wars 2 in a rose tinted glass, but GW 2 is great to play. except it's an area quest than storyline individual quest. but they also have area co-op quests and group quests.
I tagged the wrong person, it was for you @hexed stream
man, GW2 was nostalgic, I played it with my friend when it was still a paid game
the last mmorpg I ever played, after that I decide to be a loner gamer
before that I also played blade and soul, was also a fun mmorpg
I'm still playing it, I bought the whole expansion except the latest for 350 MYR
darn, there's a goblin shrine in LE now? I love it
I'd blame Minimap for tempting me to play Guild Wars 2 atm ๐
lol bruhther
GW2 is a lotta fun. I know Deias played a lot of it.
have anyone tried throne and liberty?
i looked at it, but it seems you can brick your character if you don't know what you're doing cause of its weird gear progression system
so i passed
Prince of Persia roguelike ๐
no idea why amazon suddenly gains this weird obsession over mmorpg
first new world, then this
i still need to play that
i really liked the metroidvania one
Chinese can't purchase it so ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
well I just ask for the sake of asking, not available in my country either
Which country are you in
below you
India?
well, darn, I just check the world map and so many countries are below china, darn again
๐
not ๐ฎ๐ณ , ๐ป๐ณ
Oh Vietnam... Tipo is the first reaction. That snack is delicious
truth be told, I haven't even eaten that once in my life, I prefer salty and spicy snacks
I literally had to google tipo when you mentioned it
but that's just me being weird, most people would eat sweet stuffs no problem
What corrupted means for this item?
unable to send SMS message...sigh
I don't get why poe server require users verify phone numbers
(https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Corrupted)
poewiki is your friend for most information
wait, there's phone number verification for poe client?
poe discord server need it
๐คทโโ๏ธ The fate let me live in le server
...Thanks, although I can't understand what the wiki saying at all
I want to know corrupted means negative or positive or neutral only and what is it means but the wiki tell me blablablabla about how to modify corrpted items, how to corrupt items, which corrupted items in game etc
Me:
Corrupted just means you can't make changes to it normally
Sometimes they get special stats
Also there is no official PoE discord
Community run
but poe discord is good, it works
If it was official PoE discord I'm sure they'd have link to it on their forums too ๐
Such a pity that verify phone number blocks me from joining that server
๐ these orbs in poe are amazing. I guess they as equal as runes and glyphs in le
tried Squad today with couple ppl from my country
was okay
i remember doing some boss with a group in GW2 and they wiped, so i did the boss solo for like 70% of the fight
and they all gave me gold at the end lol
lol There is quite confusing...I don't know what should I do for a while because I never see these monsters and I think I need to go anywhere to kill them
Well I'm slain then I can't craft again and I don't know what should I do really now
oh alright keep farming
I quit the league do you want any currency and items I don't need?
welcome! Through I don't know what are they mean to me...lol
Store something always good
It's not a lot but can help you with trading and stuff
I'm a witch
Also it's not real money trade if that is what you are assuming
Stuff like chaos orbs and whatnot
oh yeah chaos damage is what i want to play
No no chaos orbs and other orbs are tradeable 'currencies' in game
Don't worry they are also used for crafting
Game is kinda complex but you'll learn. I'm still learning myself lol.
Are you on console?
pc
? I can't dm you. I don't receive any invitation from social...
My god i bet there's a conspiracy why Manchester United owners want to keep ten hag.
๐คญ The way to check out playtime is unique
ugh that website
A plague on the genre
I had to go away. Also please ignore sites like that if you can.
Yeah PoE has a very good wiki, but also that specific site exists only to advertise their RMT business.
RMT? More like really muddling trains.
the issue is, poe doesn't have COF, so without trade, it's pretty miserable with low drop rate
like, not just miserable, but ultra miserable
Yeah
You can make it work, some builds easier than others
But you need to know what you're doing and even then it's still RNG
and you can't really make something that relies on a specific unique
Yeah but talking about the more rare uniques
or stuff that you can only get from Heist for example
I know a guy who tried that, he got to like... lvl 80? in SSF and then ragequit because he couldn't actually get his build going because he didn't get the uniques he needed
||he conveniently ignored when I told him that he should probably lvl as some other build than that and then change around when he has them||
oh and also cluster jewels are also something that you can't rely on SSF either
in a sense, ssf in poe is really like ssf irl, it's like you decide not to buy anything anymore, and grow everything by yourself to eat, it's doable, but a miserable experience for most people
Also largely depends on the type of end game content you're trying to do. If the extent of your playtime is just running T16 maps then you can get away with pretty much any decent off meta build.
And as we've seen in these past few days in the Gauntlet, and past Gauntlets (which are HC SSF), a skilled and knowledgeable player will have farmed bases, crafted high end gear and geared up enough to challenge ubers within just a few days. So there's definitely a huge knowledge gap (learning all the different ways to farm bases, the different crafting systems, metacrafting etc) that makes SSF way more viable.
Damn...But I can't join in poe community server...SMS still don't work
ssf is just working with what you got at first, expecting a build online at lvl 80 is kinda weird
I'm a little woozy playing LE right now
I guess various orbs and gems is the core of fun of farming in poe? I enjoying adjusting my gears by orbs a lot but these orbs just too rare :(
Get an excellent result by using orbs just now
I don't know what the sense of stacking intelligence though
I was about to complaint 5 P Damage then i realized it's a Mage gear
more often than not I see people in poe wasting 10s of divs of currency trying to play with crafting, not knowing what they do exactly, and in the end result in something that's worth 1 or 2c
poe crafting is something I personally will not do unless I gain another 5000h of experience or so
like, 200% of what I have now
i mean the basics ain't that hard
trying to craft crazy stuff is but if you stick to the basics it's fine
and i have 200 hours, so
yeah, wasting a few chaos or so experimenting is ok, it's cheap experimentation anyway, or essence is also good way to craft, and easy to farm as well if she knows the strat
you can also just do normal chance, alt, exalt stuff
personally won't touch exalt early on, that level of currency I start to save it up to exchange to chaos for trading, unless I'm around more than 1 week into league when 1 exalt is nothing
for me, everything before t16 is early on
i get chaos without trying early
what
how little currency are you making??
i make divs in yellow maps
idk, when reaching t16 I usually start making a few div/h, and when gears get better, 10+ div/h
You can make like almost 15d an hour from T5 maps onwards just by running essences lol
depending on league
cowgirl league I run harvest and then strongbox scarab farming
tf is cowgirl league
yes, but with a build capable of doing t17, otherwise the essence boss will 1 shot you
strongboxes are scams
Lol wut
they're dopamine but scams
part of that is fubgone fault
i have a friend running essences all league and they're fine
what
the streamer I watched this league also made all her currency running essence for 2 weeks straight too, her build was destroying t17 fully juiced with ease, yet t7 essence corrupted boss kicked her ass every now and then
what is fubgone
fubgun, but gone version
what
he's the best mf streamer in poe, always boasting the record for div/h every league
and how did he cause issues?
pretty sure strongboxes are just satisfying so people like running them, therefor the prices of the strongbox items go up, it's basic supply and demand
i'm sure a small part of the community switches to them because of some streamer but generally people just like them
for the exact reason I just said, he's the best mf player, so when he posts a farming strat, so many people use that for farming, thus the currency farmed from such method will crash in price
but cowgirl league I didn't play long enough until strongbox strat crashed in price, when I quit it was still solid 15 div/hr
what is cowgirl league
and only 15 coz my char not strong enough
why are we talking about farm workers
the ongoing league?
settlers of cowgirl
why in all of my god's names are you calling it that
like, the whole poe community call this league that way
even the major streamers put cowgirl in their streaming session names
so the weirdo side, yeah
idk, poe is really flooded with tons of weirdo including me
weirdo is good, I don't like to see myself as the normal one
the weirdo's i'm talking about are they type to sexually harass me
Chamber of sin is quite interesting, remind me of...emmm why dungeons for main campaign in poe is as same as d4, I must follow the coming way to return? Waste time on walking...
that's why everyone hates doing lab
i haven't had that experience with chamber of sin? if i understand you
that sentence's not computing in my head a bit
here
maybe she means the trial, but I could be wrong
maybe
in which case you just do the trials the first time you enter the maps
if there's a trial in a map the quest will appear on the right side
if you do them while you're there, it's no biggie
oh that's a dungeon where many gems inside. Ok not waste my time now
every league rush campaign never look back
i do all quests because i'm not yet familiar enough to remember which ones are worth it
just do all, don't waste that much more time
i don't remember much about poe to know what quests are worth doing or not
Ok I see why I always find a big dungeon in per act at least... That's what the lord's labyrinth need to do. Ok not bad gameplay
Claim quest's rewards time :)
I enjoyed the main tale showed in campaign of D4, I enjoy the gameplay of campaign of poe, I just don't find anything campaign of le I enjoyed.
The most quests I need to do in the campaign of poe
i personally have no idea what LE's campaign is about, other than there's a undead emperor or something
oh remind of a thing. I don't need to go back to a town or walk back for a long time in LE's campaign. This is the adventage of le's campaign
i don't think i know what PoE's campaign is either, other than i found the lore tid bits cool
like the gemling queen
LE definitely has the worst campaign, story-wise of all ARPGs that I've played. Even Grim Dawn's story was way better.
gd's lore is really interesting imo
Actually true, I shouldn't have phrased it like that. GD has some good lore for sure.
will I see you on 9th october for new season?
oh it's not 9th, darn, need to check my calendar or eyes checked
there's a release time map image somewhere for it, probably on their website or twitter
but it's 7th for NA/SA, 8th for the rest of the world afaik
timezones be wacky
yeah i like the witch gods(?) a lot
also ashes of malmouth went hard on the lore, so cool
i love those zones too
eu got shafted again :<
GD had a very similar vibe for me as playing D2 for the very first time, it was a well crafted immersive environment. Only thing missing to make it better would've been cinematics.
yeah, i like the little cinematics they did but there's only a few of them
the 2d cinematics
Too expensive ๐คทโโ๏ธ
If they had the same CGI animations like D2 had, that would've been amazing but obviously they're not that high budget lol
maybe GD2 will have a higher budget and we get some cool stuff, idk
surely there'll be a gd2 anyway
GD2 release date 2077
No idea, I'm surprised Crate wasn't hired to work on Titan Quest 2.
still can play, just no new class, new campaign and runewords
no way that can happen
crate has knowledge of the original engine, but they went with unreal 5 for TQ2 i think
I don't know what kind of terms they parted ways with THQ Nordic, but maybe.
and i think grimlore has unreal knowledge or something
i hear those rts games are really good, i just dont' play rts
Grimlore makes the SpellForce games
Yeah, just a shame IMO that the few remaining original TQ devs at Crate aren't the ones working on TQ2
oh for sure
i don't remember who originally published Titan Quest
oh it was THQ original before they went bankrupt and got wrapped up into THQ Nordic or something
I guess Ironlore/Crate own the actual original TQ engine and that's not part of the TQ intellectual property, dunno how else they were allowed to use the same engine for GD.
I think they bought the engine or licensed it from the publisher? I don't remember
i feel like i read about it though
dang i kind of want to play titan quest before vessel of hatred comes out
but that first act takes so long
Settings -> Game Speed -> Fastest (or whatever the fastest setting is) lol
lol true
i think i already play on fast
fastest is too fast for me if i remember right
at least for bosses
Fast is the current default in the Anniversary Edition, but there's one setting higher
Ah, yeah
Looks good so far based on the demo footage. AaronARPG has been keeping up with the news/reveals and seemed optimistic based on what we've been shown so far. Grimlore doesn't seem to have experience making an ARPG so I kinda expect the game to launch with some glaring design flaws, but they at least seem to be good about supporting their games.
Brutal ads for sure ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ๐คฃ
that's how you do ads, I totally love it
reminding me of papa john pizza guy on youtube shorts, the voice is really aggressive, but it's darn interesting
oh ok more contents on the wiki I can get now
Is that your youtube channel or why do you keep on linking it?
.......Monsters from the violent ritual is too hard to kill. They're like a group of hungry golf bite a little goat so I'm slain twice times
Bitter ritual is the same. What the hell...They're too strong
...๐ hah I even can build something in poe???? Am I playing build and survival game suddenly...
Yes, you can change your hideout and customize it any way you want
Add or remove NPCs, place your waypoint, stash, crafting benches etc.
lmaooooooooo what!?!?!?
It's unexpected at all...I just think I come here to play gears but then poe let me play building suddebly...
Wait until you learn about this league's mechanic (Kingsmarch)
She is playing std
Ouch, that's unfortunate. Missing out on one of the best league mechanics ever for PoE
Yea was about to say don't mention this league mechanic 
Hope it's ssf so u don't get wrong idea about traiding
Standard is sort of our graveyard
Hopefully if they keep one thing from this league, they keep Faustus/Gold respecs/Currency exchange
wait until you play town management and tower defense
Could you guys hold your breath for 20 seconds for this video?
icant, this is so much longer than how long I last in bed 
๐ The end of act 2 is tough. The laser kill me a few times even I use a traversal skill because the server lag...But I pass finally
Fun fact: I don't know what settlers mode means when I select the mode...
Of course, I still don't know even now
Settlers is just the name of the current league/season, Settlers of Kalguur.
lol hah damn miss the cycle entirely
Standard is like LE Legacy and Challenge League is like a LE Cycle. The current challenge league is called Settlers, so that will say something different next league.
But in PoE, challenge leagues have unique mechanics that are not available in standard.
The pity is...poe can't skip the campaign :(
Indeed
So play a new character is super troublesome
But it's about 6 hours or so once you optimize it and you'll be around level 70 by the end of it.
my 3rd league and I took more than double that amount of time
Yeah it's super easy to get distracted, so it's easy to lose a lot of time. That's fine though if you have fun with the distractions. But if you strictly just focus on campaign and only the quests you need for skill points and you become more familiar with the map tile sets, then it should be around 5-6 hours.
I tried to focus, but it's about familiarity with campaign map locations I guess
not just the quests with skill points, I did all
Yeah map traversal accounts for a huge portion of the time wasted
honestly when poe2 comes out, I'm not even sure if I will ever go back to poe1
If the goal is to go fast, then you'd only do the side quests that actually award skill points and gems/flasks that you need.
I still under the logic that create a new character, level it up to explore all game mechanics by error and trials, then use the storage from the first character to boost up process and expand the storage, run the loop until I tried everything in the game.
So... Play a new character from zero per a few months is what I don't get where the fun is still.
the fun is everyone starts from 0, not just you
every game with season, I don't play non-season, and I immediately delete everything when I'm done
Masters can still faster than your process even all of us start from zero ๐คทโโ๏ธ
yes, but that doesn't matter, starting again with everyone from 0 is still fun
it's not about the competition
no way to compete against people with more time and more knowledge
In PoE there's things you can only experience in a season, then it goes away forever. So you do also kind of end up missing out on a lot of content by skipping seasons.
I think they'll end up keeping some things from this season, but probably not all of it.
๐ The difference on logic. I don't get why people don't enjoy the advanced phase when everything is advanced (ready)
and also, in most arpg, leveling process will be your most memorable time, endgame farming is just the same old repetitive mapping
many of us don't want a silver plate handed to us when starting anew, it's more fun working everything up from scratch
It also feels great seeing the character come together
I agree that most of the fun is in watching the build come together, and not when you finally have the build.
That's the case for me too.
there's a good reason so many children of billionaires kill themselves, they are born with too much money that takes 100 generations to spend, and they don't know what the hell they wanna do with life, they lose all purpose in life
eating the rice you hard earn always tastes better than the rice you buy, as the saying goes
Like sure, mapping is nice and all
but it gets kinda repetitive so I usually listen to music or talk with friends when I do that for extended periods
in fact I don't even know how people find fun when they have everything ready for them at the start
I like the feeling that see the own character come together but I rather like I can control my character to do everything without limit
At least we get multiple Atlas trees so we can switch up the mapping to cater to whatever activity we want to grind, I enjoy a lot of them like Legion, Breach, Harvest, Betrayal, Expedition, Delve.
Yeah, I remember 2 streamers talked about that (Mathil & Zizaran)
and zizaran always used to get all the gear ready for alt characters before even starting them
and mathil said that's boring and how it feels much better to put the character together while lvling and craft the gear, see the power increase
and then ziz tried that and was like "wow, mathil was right"
the psychology is very simple, legacy character promotes dopamine, or we usually call it cheap, quick fun
seasonal char promotes hard earned satisfaction after going through difficult times, the hormone involved is also different, called endorphin
and in medical understanding, the satisfaction effect of endorphin is much more long-lasting and impactful than dopamine
I'm the people who get all gears ready for alt characters indeed lol
Sometimes I'll throw a useful unique on an alt for easier leveling/campaign, but most of the time I'll try to use whatever I pick up because the crafting system is already powerful as it is.
idk, imagine you level your alt to 70 using gears earned by other chars, meaning there's zero difficulty leveling, then at level 70 you equip all the best gears earning by the previous char as well, meaning you reach the near max potential of that build, so why are you still playing that build at all
everything is easy mode
Obviously I'll have plenty of currency that I farmed on my main which I can spend on crafting for alt
Then I lose the interest to play the alt character quickly yeah
The most happy memory is when I level up the first character always
also part of the reason why more advanced players often resort to playing hc mode
endorphin + adrenaline rush, ultimate fun formula
There's too many defensive mechanics in PoE, I can't fathom me playing HC. I'd definitely mess something up and get one shot.
big respect to ziz who almost always plays hc
There's quite a few HCSSF players in PoE, takes a lot of knowledge to not die lol
Last time I played HC in PoE was before Sirus etc were added
before the end game boss hp got... what, tripled or quadrupled?
the only game I dare to play hc is d2r, it's simple enough
Made it to like tier 6 maps and then I got killed by a red beast
Armor, Evade, Block, Spell Suppression, Spell Dodge, Resistance Scaling, Damage Shifting etc. So many defensive mechanics you have to be aware of, else you risk being vulnerable to a one shot that completely bypasses whatever defensive layers you have lol
or play armor stacking and afk on uber bosses
Everything in gameplay of a ARPG must spend lots of time to learn if I want to master at this game. Oh...stressful because of the huge gap on experience.
Don't think that's viable for everything though, or if it was, it probably requires specific passives/items to allow armor to mitigate non-phys so it's gonna lock you into certain choices.
part of the reason this genre is not popular
look at fps game, nothing much to learn, just know how to shoot a gun and good to go
Every genre that requires effort for entry isn't popular
DnD , fighting games, RTS etc
And thatโs not a bad thing
People are busy and lots of times canโt get into complicated games
But also, another reason is just that most ARPGโs are dated and generally donโt attract new players, choosing instead to cater toward their current community
This is why Diablo has gotten the โcasual gamerโ stereotype, because it attempts to bring in new players more consistently than others
Well Patrick Ewing is back on NBA
I guess why they're agree on poe is harder than le is too many gems the player can select when they claim the reward of main quests ๐ Options just more and more...
of course just one of reasons
Hands down the best feature this league. They better keep this and add it to the base game.
i dont miss whispering to 20 player for 1 trade
Surely they're online when they say they are 
I hope they add autoloot (and a proper filter that can also tie in with autoloot).
Soooo when do they make their UI art not hideous?
Dunno, that thought never occurred to me. Seems good, maybe a bit dated but at least the game itself (including the UI) feels very snappy and responsive (no perceptibly unnatural latency across UI actions) so that maybe reinforces my impression of it.
Why?
Because I hate having to pick certain curr up
This was a productive league. I am content and now we wait for PoE 2.
I figure a lot of Settlers will go core but obviously not all
Yeah I don't think Kingsmarch itself will go core, that's just such a huge mechanic to be repeating every league unless they nerf it.
Like Faustus/Exchange, and hopefully Runesmithing. Probably not mappers/plants/shipment.
Yep, and I would be happy with that. I'd be even happier if they kept the cheap early game respecs with Faustus, but since 90% of the reason for gold is probably going to be removed... I kinda doubt gold respecs will go core.
But then again, if they keep the Currency Exchange, that's a pretty big reason to keep gold in the game as well since you currently pay gold for the broker tax in the exchange.
Gold will probably go core if I was a betting man since it was backported from POE 2 and a test/feeler to see how it would feel in POE 1 with pretty much overwhelmingly positive reception for Gold/Faustus/Gold respec
I'd be shocked if that left tbh
I dunno. I think itโs too little interaction.
I can see most of the mechanical stuff but if Gold was gone I'd be shocked tbh
Yeah I agree. I think gold is a crucial feature right now that makes PoE appeal to a wider audience with the respecs and currency exchange.
They might have to find more uses for gold though, or raise the exchange fees or steepen the respec cost curve since we likely aren't going to have anything else to spend gold on especially late game.
I wouldn't be opposed to them keeping shipping though, but maybe instead of Kingsmarch resources, we can just spend gold on "goods" or "labor" or whatever and ship that.
So they could keep some aspects of the Kingsmarch mini-games that weren't as demanding.
You know what, they should keep the Recombinator and Thaumaturgic Dust as well, that would be another well received feature for people to spend gold on.
I think Kingsmarch should just become a core mechanic tbh
I trust it will go core even before the currency exchange
respec difficulty is a huge turn off for newcomers
which website are they uses for simulation about passive net of poe?
do you mean the skill tree? It's a program called Path of Building
I believe this is it. https://github.com/PathOfBuildingCommunity/PathOfBuilding/releases
You get to select that after you've done labyrinth for the first time
ahah that'll the most interesting part! Looking forward to that ๐
Be careful with the traps it has
they can hurt
Especially if you start panicking and run in more of them
I feel like I play PoB more than PoE sometimes lol
lol I never imagine I even play tower defence in a ARPG
Blight? Yeah it's not bad, and the rewards are good too. You get a bunch of different oils from Blight which you can use to anoint an amulet. Anointing automatically grants you a passive node specific to the recipe you used. For example if you wanted access to this passive node without needing to path all the way to it, you can anoint an amulet with the recipe shown (Silver, Silver, Golden) and it allocates that passive for you.
Blight is only one of the many end game activities you can focus on, there's a bunch of other really good/useful ones too. I really like Betrayal specifically for the veiled mods.
Too many things to do in this damn game that are fun (for me personally) like Betrayal, Delve, Harvest, Blight, Expedition and a little bit of Legion and Breach.
I ran soo breach so much this league
And delve too
really liked ritual in earlier leagues but it got really dangerous with the new monster additions
was it good, I was sad that the chayula scarab was removed, was doing tons of breach last league
Yeah it was pretty solid
Was doing Viper Strike of the mamba and the poison prolif just killed them all
It was especially fun when a boss spawned and a bunch of monsters near it died to poisonand the boss suddenly got instantly killed by the poison
what you guys rolling for the d4 expansion? I think i might do sorc just cause that's what i did at launch
and do spiritborn second
Iโd probably go spiritborn or rogue. I canโt afford the DLC, though.
I'm a rogue main but definitely will try Spiritborn first
spiritborn overtuned so much its hard to make it
but im starting with dance of knives propably
raxx literally said spiritborn = x5 of the next 2 best classes > sorc/druid/barb
No matter what class they release I'm only playing sorc
Necro maybe as an alternative but nothing else
do there no limit on which games you add in your page?
tons of games I never heard unfortunately ๐
idk what app that is, i've never seen it
Nexus, a platform for connection between content creators and game studios
https://www.nexus.gg/
Trusted by EHG ๐
๐ค alright...Then how to promote my nexus account is my business. Everything is ready. Go back to play poe
I must work more hard to do more fan arts for different games to gain my reputation...A long process
lol no way...Only games I can recognize and has played is heal, superliminal and last epoch only
oh layers of fear! That's an impressive horror adventure game
pathfinder is heard and played but not interested in the gameplay
Hi guys, how are you doing ^^
Hey
hello
oh gotcha, i've never seen it before
kind of confusing they named it nexus, easy to mix up with nexus mods
๐คญ ...BUY! But why am I buy your game? Ok...It looks so cool actually
lol, ACG rates games on a Buy/Sale/Pass basis. So "buy" is his highest review score i guess
Man, suddenly I want to play BL3
Wut game is that
BL3? borderlands 3 I guess
๐ฅ First time to do exclusive banner for profile page. Thanks for Nexus lol
Such a pity that I can't use the banner on ins
I feel the top banner is a bit boring because of different picture size though. The bottom one is better
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BLzxuIfD9rU&ab_channel=tomcardy this will get stuck in your head for the next 10 years Cha cha cha
I am really tempt to re-play V Rising, playing V Rising solo is boring and sad. ๐ฆ
Any rules for judging which gem is more value? No idea which one should I pick this time...
Base gems has no value at low levels/without +1 corrupt
U can buy all those gems in act6 vendor
Both are good
I like hexblast
just needs curses linked to it
I regret going to r/techsupportgore today
this is the problem. Both of them is good but I only can select one :(
I hate this case so much hahhhhh...I want both of them only
I'm thinking the way Gamers are stubborn using Epic Launcher is amazing.
I'd pick hexblast
Both are good but I'd still pick hexblast
You can also buy them from npc in the town after getting the reward
aren't there a few vendors that sell all the skill gems? can try stuff later on
i don't remember where they are though
act3 library and act6 town after you do quest
the library doesn't even sell all of them
not all but most
Yeah
Most of the ones you'd want / need
I must say Lunaris temple is the biggest labyrinth which I had walked
๐ข 3x size of temporal sanctum
Lunaris temple is cool
anyway, time to sleep for me
thanks, my difficulty in choosing gems is more now
I need to go to bed too...๐
What I appreciated poe the most on gameplay is the currency system.
So cool to pay different goods by different materials (different orbs) then max the value of all materials.
LE can improve this area. These shards are useless after I stored them a lot...Why not let them being the only currency for exchanging something ๐ค
I'm so happy on playing a game which not use golds to buy something I need
Well if you know, you know
There's a good reason humankind moved from bartering goods, to using money as common currency
The problem is not gold, problem is the role of gold in the game, how omnipresent it is
Booked promised weekend streams from a streamer about poe 2! Hyped to watch 
Although most of le streamers must stream poe 2 I bet.
The most trouble thing is I need to check out how to get the access
I need to do one more fan art for LE before poe 2's hype wave is live
hah alright GGG don't have the own ins account so...The only gaslight is on the reddit.
I mean, LE hasn't had any significant changes since, like... 0.8. I don't blame them for wanting to try something new.
Pay to participate, they already said that, and then it becomes f2p after a few months
I don't blame anyone for streaming a different game, whatever is legal and earn them money
Yeah earn enough money by single game only is super rare and need lots of luck for streamers... EHG know it clearly
Wait...I realize dungeon gameplay in le is inspired from this one once I see that ๐ค
Interesting to try how the origin one works!
Congratulations to myself, gain the chance to re-enter six mazes again hahaha (Damn the boss inside the labyrinth is too insane because of too many minions surround it then I even no chance to close to him)
I donโt think Iโve ever noticed minions when fighting Izaro. Thereโs also different mechanics Izaro can roll. What skill are you using?
I destroyed mirrors at first when I challenged it for the second time but still be slain because I took too much damage...Hah
I only can increase my armor and energy shield so far
Can say it's a dot build
You should probably try focusing on one skill and scaling that, not multiple
Hexblast mines (IDK what it is in your language if youโve swapped it) are probably your best language
Hexblast cost lots of mana then I out of mana quickly is current issue
I wonder any ways to gain mana from hitting enemies
lol The origin of manacharged node in static orb's skill tree is found
is the main rewards from the D4 raid cosmetics? Like you don't need to do it to target farm or anything? I was looking up more info about its rewards and didn't see much
Just done the combat with Dominus, I want to say drop items during the combat is pure bad idea. Blocks my controls and increase the misclick chance a lot
Thatโs good!
The way Deias usually does this with Hexblast is linking it to a bunch of mine supports, obtaining Clarity and capping it at around level eight, and linking detonate mines to automate.
Mine supports: various gems that support mines when linked.
Clarity: an aura (reserves mana or life) skill gem that constantly generates mana.
Detonate mines: a skill that detonates your mines when activated.
Automate: automatically uses whatever skill itโs linked to.
To further explain: Hexblast + Charged Mines + Increased Critical Strikes + Blastchain Mines is the typical 4L setup for early Hexblast Mines if i remember correctly

why thank ye, deias, ye olde basher of bosses
Not hear charged mines and blastchain mines yet
Ok not skill gems I can confirm
I just want to know which skill is it
you detonate your mines with that
I mean the skill name, I want to search this gem
its not gem
it appears when you equip mine skill
tho there is skill gem also with same name i forgot
https://poedb.tw/us/Skill_Gems?query=storm oh I don't find this gem in this website
which is mine skill...god ๐
questions are too much to ask
wiki is better for searching
Then I'm confused how to get these recipes, click the first one, divination card...Fine I don't know this thing yet because it's appeared since the beginning of act 4, where my progress on
๐คญ I guess I can start to think where my build will go until I done act 6
lol my guessing is right
Act 6 Fallen from grace
Let me check out if it's available on the town of act 3. Ok, no. See it in act 6.
Each maps per act is quite big to explore and find targeted people or bosses then cost much time.
emmmm do the max bonus of quality for armor is 20%?
...I want to know what happened only. Luminous enemies who looks like that are appeared and they're too much so they can kill me in 1 sec :(
One of those has invulnerability aura that it turns on some times
It does disappear after a short time
Yeah, that too
These luminous spiders are too amazing...Their nets trap and kill me instantly
I wonder how to kill them quickly now...My damage is dot so needs time but they doesn't give me time at all so...
I probably wouldn't go to Delve right away when you can
Yea you clearly dont know mechanics down there so leave it for now
oh yeah I leave it here and lay on the bed and fall asleep lol
well if you try it again tomorrow, the same thing will happen
lmaooooooo what can I do...I'm depressed
The main difficulty of I play poe is I don't know how to aoe really then I must be slain if enemies are too much ๐ข
I just suicide myself once I enter the arena. Nothing I can do...
Also Im not sure if anyone has told you yet but defenses/resistances are REALLY important in PoE
If you ignore them you will find yourself getting walled quite early and often as you go through the acts more and more enemies gain elemental damage types etc.
Also you should have more hp
The tricky point in poe is enemies do physical damage but no physical resistance...Only reduce physical damage. The same meaning though...But I can't find anything can reduce physical damage ๐ต
I gave up blight and use the recommended combo, contagion + essence drain. AOE become better now
lol I wonder what's going on...I go to a big arena suddenly then must kill groups of enemies and I don't know where to go after clear all enemies
hah the arena journey is over finally. I hate my characters move very slowly indeed...That quicksilver flask suppose to not work in boss combat?
It does work with bosses too
Just that it has limited charges and you don't get the charges back during a boss fight
21 charges I have
Too less...How to increase the charges amount
๐ ...700+ms delay within the combat then always be slain because of the lag
But poe Chinese version can't switch to English
lol 10K+ ms delay will cause my character died by burning but no death reminder. Then it's up to 20k+ms and out of connection
Sigh...This is the weakness of playing an online game. Always have to deal with internet issue...Offline mode in le is a big achievement definitely after I have experienced the pain of always died by the lag.
๐
I don't know why Autralia server can't be connected so I can select London only
What do you mean? Seems to work for me?
If that doesn't work, then there's also the NZ server which is probably the next closest.
Doing damage and taking damage are definitely one of the trickiest things to learn in PoE as a new player. Getting one shot without fully understanding why is definitely one of the more frustrating experiences while learning the game.
Also for flasks, if you want better uptime, you'll need to invest into them probably in your passive skill tree. Some ascendencies make flask uptime easier, like Pathfinder (Ranger).
Don't be afraid to use Alteration orbs on your flasks to roll the mods you need, as well.
shouldn't japan server be the closest to you if you play international poe version?
many times singapore server is unstable as hell, I turn on vpn, choose japan host, and connect to japan server, very stable that way with around 100ms, and I'm sure I'm ways further from japan server than you
currently using a free vpn called softether
Armor reduces the physical damage you take, but it scales weirdly and is hard to get if you aren't on the left side of the tree.
You start off getting flask charges by killing enemies. Later on you can craft stuff onto them that allows you to recover them on a critical strike, for example.
Yeah that's odd. European regions will have lower ping.
I still suggest you use vpn, whenever you want to connect to a server, you use vpn first to connect to that country, that will help stabilize the ping a lot more than without vpn, I learn it after days or trial and error
also, you play poe china or poe international version? the 2 are drastically different
I must use VPN haha because Chinese internet can do nothing on international games, apps and websites
HongKong is the region I select for vpn
Yeah I figured it out later, if the bottle become black, it mean I need to kill enemies to charge it at first. Only avaialble in some green in the bottle
Then it's not friendly in combats which single target only
I unlock nothing yet...The origin one can spend lots of time to explore already ๐ I guess it's relevant to the lord's labyrinth
ooo that is a messy passive tree
idk, this looks like a guide is needed
nah, just some discussion
0 refunding points ๐ต
generally how people build their passive tree is by getting to the outer ring as fast as possible. since the travel nodes (the smaller points you can select to get around) are more spread out, it means you can be more efficient with your passive points
so for example, if you really wanted these nodes, this would be a better way to path
this way you're spending less points on less impactful stuff
you can buy them pretty easily. i can also probably find someone to hop in and give you some
i might have some in standard
for example, this is much more efficient pathing
a lot of the small nodes you have simply aren't needed. there's some cases when they're great, but usually you want to get to large nodes with as little investment as possible
are you playing with a shield?
keep in mind i'm no expert, but i'm willing to help where i can
you also really need to pick up life nodes that are close early on
you can easily respec with gold until late in the campaign if needed
depends
witch might want go CI (chaos inoculation. itโs a node that sets your life to 1, but makes it so chaos damage cannot penetrate energy shield)
but usually i recommend respeccing into CI later in
๐ emmm You can understand my route on passive net is free to go yeah. I go anywhere when I find a node which maybe useful then I turn the direction so many branches on my route
CI is a late game thing, you never take CI until you have the endgame gear for it. No matter what class. Also, Witch isn't actually very good for CI anymore.
CI requires considerable energy shield investment that can only really be obtained later on AFAIK
Such as Trickster energy leech
So what can I do is increased spell damage now?
Yup. I didn't take CI on my Trickster until I had at least T2 ES rolls on every slot.
interesting
Early max life nodes can be really helpful for scaling your max life % until you get better max life rolls on gear
I've about 6k ES on my Trickster but still haven't gone CI
Would need to change my skill tree a lot and I'm just... not really feeling it
But I'm thinking of maybe starting a duelist and going glad
maybe bleed bow or lacerate
+50 max life mastery my beloved
Sadly nerfed to +30
yeah but gear life is crazy now so
I don't know the order of status I'll want in early games. Intelligence? Strength? Dexterity? Spell damage? Attack speed? Cast speed? Energy field? Life? Mana?...
entirely unrelated. what sauces do yโall like with popcorn chicken or chicken tenders or whatevs
I had 11k before I clicked CI, and then got to 13k in my finished product 
generally a mix of multiple stuff. you can pretty safely ignore strength, dex and int unless you need it to meet requirements early
You don't want attack speed for spells at all
Unless you are doing cast on crit build
donโt try and scale that to the moon or anything
yeah, attack speed is only for attacks, but hexblast is a spell
You only need Attack Speed for a Wand build if you are using a Wand Attack skill, there's very few of those.
I only recently learned that Frenzy can actually be used with Wands lol
But Spells use Cast Speed instead of Attack Speed.
https://pathofexile.fandom.com/wiki/List_of_skill_gems_usable_with_wands These are the possible attack skills that you can use with wands
i think i might make a standard โsecret sauceโ thing
It's kinda janky, pretty much only used as a Spellslinger proc with wands. Otherwise it gets shoved in a Manaforged Arrows setup for bow users. The transfiguration version for melee goes pretty hard though, it just basically requires Ralakesh.
There are also ways to get attacks to scale with increased spell dmg
For the refunding point, yeah i can purchase it but I don't have enough orb of chance to exchange orb of scouring to exchange orb of regret so I only can stick on here
Yeah I've only been using Frenzy myself with Manaforged Arrows for generating frenzy charges in my bow build
noooo donโt buy them from traders
you buy from players
oh damn
Yeah sucks, Standard doesn't have the Currency Exchange lol
yeah standard moment
Then I don't unlock the market yet
there is no market
this season introduced the currency exchange with the new mechanic, which lets you trade currencies easily
You don't unlock a market. Unlike LE, you have to go onto a website to trade items. In Settlers league we have an NPC for currency trading but it isn't in Standard yet.
yeah
The Currency Exchange is a "league mechanic" as in it's a special feature that only exists in the Challenge Leagues.
yo roomy you want
But there's a very good chance the feature will be adopted into the base game later on.
emmmmmm so it's time to create a new character again to play the game?
To be fair, when you create a new character for the first time, I think it recommends to you to play the Challenge League. You have to choose standard which you maybe did lol
Yea
i mean no you can play just fine, thereโs just a little less convenience
You have to choose standard which you maybe did lol
?
people still trade the normal way constantly, since itโs the only way to trade gear
when you create a character youโre given a choice between the current league or standard
I wonder how long the league will last and if it's the end of the league now
itโs going for like 5 more months or smth
I don't think this league will end soon because PoE 2 early access is Nov 15
yeah
If they did a new league now, it would be a very short league
So I think Settlers will be around for a while
It's gonna be a long one. I'd wager December or January for next league at the soonest.
I don't mind though, this league has been great
๐ค hah Ok...I need to play a character from zero again then...Made too many mistakes on the first class actually
Gives me plenty of time to mess about in Torchlight's season in a few weeks and then hit PoE2 beta next month, on top of being able to jump back to PoE1 league to knock out anything that catches my eye.
You dont have to, but you miss out on a lot of cool stuff they added this league which makes it VERY easy for new players. Like you can respec very cheaply with gold in the league.
Yeah this is the biggest mistake lol
Not complete the campaign so enough unknown contents which worth to explore is left
tbf the campaign is the literal start of the game
If you do make a new character, there's a lot of good build guides that will teach you as well if you want some guidance on how to spend your skill points and how to obtain gear.
yeah, if you arenโt comfy freeballing it there are guides
but make sure to understand why youโre taking the things you are
or doing things in a certain way
i think if iโd followed guides i wouldnโt really get how to build my own thing
Generally agree, but I think people can be prone to information overload with games as complex as this. Eager to learn, they try to learn everything and end up only learning a little bit of everything instead of a lot of something.
yeah discussing with people helped me a lot
Build guides provide railing for you to lean on and give you a way to dismiss or ignore things that aren't relevant to the build you are trying to play.
@twilit mountain got me into the game a few years ago so iโve been able to discuss with them the entire time
- now iโm in a small community server of arpg players so i can talk with all of them
i just think discussion is super important because itโs so oftโ i see someone following a guide and asking basic questions about gearing and stuff because theyโre just mindlessly doing what the guide tells them to do
Yeah if you wanna actually learn then don't just blindly follow a guide, of course. Ask questions and people will help. Still good for some folks to have some kind of anchor or goal to work towards which also makes discussion easier as well.
indeed
Irl friend introduced me to PoE in like... 2012 but I didn't start playing until early 2013
I stumbled into it on Twitch right at the start of Bestiary and have been playing since
I didn't play most of the early leagues tbh
my computer back then was absolutely terrible
twitch user.
But I remember getting a mirror shard and a few fishing rods in harbinger league
and a friend of mine was jealous and I gave them to him... because had no idea of their value lul
Tbf, mirrors were much less value back then
Yeah, don't keep in touch with that dude anymore
and yeah, mirrors weren't as valuable back then
In the real old days you could buy a mirror for like 15ex and a bunch of gumball
I don't know why I got hooked to poe during pokemon league but that was the first time I properly played
pokemon league?
Think I did around 100 hours or so
Bestiary
oh
Before that every time I tried the game I couldn't go past the halfway point of a1
Been playing sts mostly especially when I'm bored
iโve been playing a lot of singleplayer stuff and battlefield
working on modding skyrim rn
Been jumping games as needed. TLI (wanna get the pass out of the way before next season, I know I'm a loser), BL3 with Dream, Battlefield also with Dream, been thinking of starting Slime Rancher 2.
I've played a little bit of Darktide with friends
But haven't done any with random players
i have a friend who looooves darktide lmao
tbh I hate how long the loading screens are
and how much tutorial there is in the start
(iโve never played it to clarify)
i got vermintide for free and gave it a shot but it wasnโt for me
Yeah, I didn't especially like vermintide
i generally donโt enjoy a lot of those co-op vs pve horde games
i loved helldivers 1 for its twin-stick gameplay but i tried helldivers 2 and it was very underwhelming for me
Never played helldivers
either one of them
....A new question I meet is I can't kill all monsters here because it's stuck with the corrupted flower... 2 monsters remain ๐
you don't need to do those! those are seasonal mechanics
If the flowers are dead then you prob missed monsters somewhere else
This is probably my least favorite story quest in the whole game for me, I hate "kill all monsters" quests and I always miss one or two as well
kek we were drinking with a friend of mine and he bought wo long fallen dynasty when he was supposed to buy that wukong monkey game. Is there any way to refund on playstation?
Probably need to contact their support about it.
Campaign in Poe is literally an introduction to the game just very long that's why we do it as fast as posible ,i have 7 k hours it still takes me just over 6 hours at league start
After second char etc always go faster u can get twink gear . Just couple of things to consider ,Res cap before act 6 and capped all the way after and upgrade gear as u go sometime blue is better than yellow
Ohh also a tip u can craft stuff like Res very early as soon as u get your hideout
we are so back. got the modded lighting working in skyrim
I'm not bothered with this game anymore, hate bad builds
No idea why the enable one and unenable one remind me of layers of fear...
I'm doubt that they've used the same techique now
(this is also with 2k textures for... everything)
Global Launch. Localized time: <t:1728342000:F> (<t:1728342000:R>)
perfect time for me to go to sleep and to work next morning
got nothing to do with europe, I play with low ping constantly
you need to try to connect to that japan server, that's your best shot to low ping
for d4, that would be korean server that's the closest to you I believe
i thought PoE had a china client?
It does
๐ค oh Let's wait this event...A bunch of new games coming soon
Same lol. I most likely play it properly on the weekend...
Wish they had released it on Friday last week.
Wo long extra lime please
Steam is the best about refunds btw 2 hours play the game if not good just refund. Ez clap
About Playstation always Support in order to refund a game.
looks sick, makes me kind of want to play again. What ENB did you use?
a p2w version I heard
better play international version still
eat, rest, exercise, whatever guys
