Path of Exile

[tight kiln]

i was doing citadel

sec lemme go in poe1

god i miss my cosmetics

oh wow i still have my old axe

[tight oak]

hand it over

[tight kiln]

sec i forgot how to play poe1

[tight oak]

https://pobb.in/wqhJjwXMqvuk

[tight kiln]

oh ye

i was doing strongbox

but scarabs

[tight oak]

i've been doing currency

[tight kiln]

i forgot what scarabs im using

[tight oak]

i did a scarab one once but idk who i would even sell to

[tight kiln]

you bulk sell

ye i forgot how i juiced

LOL

[tight oak]

the one i've been following uses

3x ambush 1x potency 1x discernment

[tight kiln]

i was using something else

3 ambush

i think 3 ambush 2 adversaries?

i cant remember

[tight oak]

i might drop the discernment for nemeses

for +2 mods on rares

[tight kiln]

https://youtu.be/wYc39asT1Nw?si=-OmBsg4Q0eXuP_RZ

ye

this one

i can pretty much do every mod

so i jsut roll like

200% scarabs and go

[tight oak]

guess i'll adapt to this one

shouldn't take too many unmakings

[tight kiln]

lul

[tight oak]

i can easily sustain my own maps as well

[tight kiln]

nah i just bulk buy

[tight oak]

i have like 50 8-mod underground seas lol

[tight kiln]

idk how much it is now but back then t17s were like 1 div each

[tight oak]

most are still around 0.9-1

tbh the big thing i need rn is just exp

so i've been doing synthesis maven rotations

[tight kiln]

TORTEL

i remember farming stacked deck as well

that was pretty good.

but too much clicking

[tight oak]

i think the best way i can improve my survivability in t17s

is get a way to recover ES

[tight kiln]

delete the mobs before it deletes you

[tight oak]

well i can do that

but eldritch altar mods

[tight kiln]

just do exarch if it helps

[tight oak]

also to upgrade my damage output rn would take a billion currency

by normal means anyway

[tight kiln]

i have 111 divs if you want

[tight oak]

unironically best way for me to up my dps is by upping my defenses

cause i need to get ancestral vision + 100% avoidance up and running

so i can drop arctic armor for skitterbots

[tight kiln]

or you can swap to frost blades of katabasis

[tight oak]

nah fuck it balls to the wall we full int, retaliation gladiator respec

[tight kiln]

ah i love poe1 skill tree + jewels

rational doctrine to make consecrated ground while standing
timeless jewel to get immunity to ALL elemental ailments while on consecrated ground
while im casting my skill = im standing

consecrated ground = -50% curse effect on you
grab another 2 jewels with 25% reduced cursed effect for 100% reduced curse effect

okay back to poe2

[blissful plume]

so necro settlers is gonna be a 1 year league by the time 3.26 happens from what he's saying

[tight oak]

it's bleak

[blissful plume]

doesn't seem like 3.26 development has even started

i just want to see what the launch numbers are for poe2 when leagues start will it make them a ton of money or will the tourists not come back

6 months to 1 year for poe2 release seems overly optimistic

i give them 2 years for release and then they start placing people back into poe1

[tight kiln]

257%

FUCK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU

[gleaming palm]

KEKW happy for 1 sec thinking it was the good one XD

[tight kiln]

holyyyy 6 or 7 breaches popped so far

[viscid fulcrum]

No mirrors, its a wash

[blissful plume]

damn got lucky with chest explode

[tight kiln]

damn

since no patch till 0.2 i probably go back TLI

[blissful plume]

guess no more poe1 to compete with TLI, LE or d4 anymore

[tight kiln]

game telling me to play tli

[blissful plume]

deep space?

[tight kiln]

nah

i dont even have 500 bil damage

and deep sapce needs 1 trillion

[tight kiln]

https://youtu.be/IyOR96NVKFM?si=KYlRJZLuMnjeLjMo

[blissful plume]

But in profound right?

[tight kiln]

ye

i started doing profound with 100 bil

im close to 200 now

[tight kiln]

nvm i got bored after i see the prices of iris2 stuff

[blissful plume]

Lol

Is it 3k?

[blissful plume]

Done with body

[blissful plume]

Almost done wands

[heavy blaze]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=soxW6FzM7zk

[blissful plume]

That's the gooba strat

He got like 2.7k FE from 1 ultimate room

[tight kiln]

do you need to do t80 above to have any impact

[blissful plume]

I think t75 is about t8 tiering

[blissful plume]

Don't worry poe3 will save poe1

[blissful plume]

gooba ignored the city unless it had ultimate rooms and only ran ruins

[heavy blaze]

is there is good video explain aeterna ? wanna try it

[blissful plume]

aeterna is quite simple, buy the pages to fill up the tree

get reverberations to run ruins

think the ratio for it is 4 lvl85s and 5 lvl87s if you're doing city

https://torchcodex.com/latest/en/soulCandleFusion.html this for candle fusion combinations

[toxic wing]

@blissful plume why are you not using those israefel gloves or what ever they're called?

[blissful plume]

Because I need to balance res first

With the priceless stuff

[toxic wing]

res pro

also for surging

some cheaper ones are listed but they have the lose % mana corrupted

is that a no no?

still working on getting enough fe though atm

[blissful plume]

Does not matter because clones don't care about mana

[toxic wing]

back to farming

i'm like 400 ish short

[blissful plume]

Best is double spell surge on cast then there's no need for cast speed anymore

[toxic wing]

too expensive

i still need to try and get a better candle atm

so i still have some other stuff that i need to work on

unless i fuse it i guess

but fusing a jump is also expensive

[blissful plume]

Just buy unid or at least 28% spell burst dmg ones and corrupt

[blissful plume]

Just run aetherna

You can force jump to appear

[tight oak]

just found a quirky little thing if anyone's familiar with ragnarok online

[covert frigate]

oh? ARPG with anime girls?

is this like a separate game, or a gamemode in Ragnarok Online?

oh its like a private server using the Ragnarok Online game engine but with new features and balance changes to resemble an ARPG?

kinda neat

[toxic wing]

@blissful plume

[tight oak]

yeah

im trying it atm

[covert frigate]

Let me know if the grind is reasonable or not and if its p2w or not

[tight kiln]

People actually going back poe1

Wtf

[covert frigate]

yeh lmao

im in act 8 now

[tight kiln]

ben is playing poe1

[toxic wing]

We have like 3-4 more months or more left til a new league so ppl are prob saying fck it might as well

[tight kiln]

Maybe i go back and hit level 100 or something

[toxic wing]

@tight kiln what do you sell those snowpaper fragments for btw

I have 2 full stacks atm

[tight kiln]

Check market?

[toxic wing]

Ppl are only buying the 75-80 ones

[tight kiln]

Huh

Then sell at 85 or something i guess

[toxic wing]

Might as well ig
Finding an uncorrupted surging is more expensive than i though atleast with 28%

[blissful plume]

https://youtu.be/kYlSjETtus0?si=OFjv7jwjw5iTETQu

[tight kiln]

remember when johnathan said it will not affect poe1's development

haha

get your ass back to poe1

its been 6 months

[blissful plume]

people already calling for ggg to sunset poe1

[covert frigate]

wtf i hope they dont

[tight kiln]

nah they wont

as ben said "why does poe2 even exist"

[covert frigate]

its crazy that they decided to make POE2 without hiring a whole dedicated team for it

[blissful plume]

did they abandon guild mtx in poe2?

[covert frigate]

like do they think a live service game is a weekend project or smth?

[blissful plume]

nah the project lead hates what poe1 has become

so poe2 is their reset button

[tight kiln]

when you think that affliction league was ran by 7 people, then ye it made sense

LOL

i need to dig the clip again

when 7 people's work deletes D4

who has close to 1k people working on it

[covert frigate]

what does he hate about POE1?

[tight kiln]

zoom zoom pew pew too fast

[blissful plume]

1 button builds

looks at poe2

[tight kiln]

just watch Ben's video when he is complaining about poe2. hes playing that on a 5 link

at mid tier maps

https://youtu.be/nA1MzS2l_rw?si=Wt4ogk7TkkbztXnE

i think its trickster power siphon miner?

shield charge drop mines shield charge drop mines

[blissful plume]

and those 7 people weren't any of the senior devs right?

like why couldn't they have the non-senior devs work on poe1 again

[tight kiln]

ye they werent

i forgot if its affliction or some other league

but basically for the entire 2024 the poe1 leagues were done by 7 people

LOL

cant wait for Void to hit end game and discover true end game with poe1

[covert frigate]

like as in 1 league in particular was so good it completely overshadowed D4?

[tight kiln]

yah

basically more content than D4

[covert frigate]

damn which league was that good?

now im sad i missed it

[tight kiln]

affliction was insane

[covert frigate]

should have played POE1 religiously for the past 3 years smh

[tight kiln]

imagine the map bosses

being tougher than arbiter tier 4

lemme see if i have a video

https://streamable.com/6hetsm

see this here

basically in the league you go to a different area to collect these wisps

yellow makes the mob drop more currency but makes the mobs deal more damage

blue makes the mob do more critical damage and have damage reduction but gives more drop quantity

and they scale together

theres one more thats purple

purple is rarity but makes mob take lesser damage

[covert frigate]

bruh you gave me this video but like

what am i supposed to be looking at here?

[tight kiln]

so it ends up, on top of all the map mobs and atlas mobs, that the fucking map bosses are THICC

[covert frigate]

if this is what POE1 endgame looks like, i fear that my laptop wouldnt even be able to handle it

[tight kiln]

this is one of the map bosses

this is 500 million dps

they take longer to die than the hardest bosses in the game

[covert frigate]

lmao i can barely see it

[tight kiln]

but yes

thats the end game for poe1

[blissful plume]

zoom zoom loot explosions

[tight kiln]

thats a fully juiced map

actually thats not even fully juiced

i should record a video this league with t17 delirium strongbox strat

and ye maybe i just go back poe1 and hit level 100 on my toon

https://streamable.com/xdxkwx this is one of the hardest bosses in the game and i removed 30% of my dps lol

i think i havent gotten my mirror tier helmet yet

[covert frigate]

i couldnt even tell what was going on lmao

[tight kiln]

ye because everything gets deleted

LOL

you overcome everything with raw dps

thats why johnathan didnt want poe2 to be like that

[covert frigate]

yeh sounds like POE alright

[tight kiln]

but what happens

poe2 is literally poe1

[covert frigate]

but worse endgame

[tight kiln]

the bosses in these fights take 70% lesser damage btw

[covert frigate]

its an action ARPG, idk what he thinks is gonna happen

[tight kiln]

there are people who just has 300 hp

[covert frigate]

its a DPS race game

[tight kiln]

pure dps

instant delete uber bosses

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhWu6oOjiGI&ab_channel=thaihoanguyen

he has 198 hp

and i remind you the bosses have 70% damage reduction

so you're only doing 30% damage to them

the staff allows elemental damage to deal triple damage

[covert frigate]

lmao instantly disappeared

[covert frigate]

why are there so few builds on maxroll.gg?

only 18 builds

[tight kiln]

idk i dont use maxroll

i usually pob + poe.ninja

but you cannot solely follow poe.ninja because that ladder can be cheesed

holy shit this uy is still playing

i used him for reference

he copied my unnatural instinct reduced curse effect strat lmao

[covert frigate]

i just want to look at some builds to get a feel for where to go after im done with this league starter lmao

[tight kiln]

what are you playing

[covert frigate]

wave of conviction

elementalist

[tight kiln]

i mean my old PoB will probably let you clear till 4 void stones

easily

[covert frigate]

im not looking for a strong build specifically, more like learn how to find a build i can transition to after finishing league starter

[tight kiln]

ye but WoC can clear all content

[covert frigate]

at least i think thats how it works?

[blissful plume]

some league starters can clear all content

[tight kiln]

people use league starters to farm a few hundred divines before changing to another build

there are league starters that can clear everything

WoC is one of them

[blissful plume]

you mean leveling skills transition to main skill

because changing another build means you don't want to continue doing WoC

[covert frigate]

yeh i guess

WoC doesnt seem to have the insane clear speed i see in videos

[tight kiln]

well ye

you're in act 8

LOL

[covert frigate]

no i mean when i watch the endgame vid of WoC

compared to other endgame vids

[tight kiln]

if you're looking at speed

[covert frigate]

WoC doesnt seem to clear very quickly or nuke boss quickly

[tight kiln]

yes because you're doing DoT dps

you can see speed

and think wow i wanna do that

then bring up the build and see mirror tier items

[covert frigate]

lmao

[tight kiln]

https://streamable.com/0nvs1e

cast on crit tornado shot ice spear

minimally 300 divs

[covert frigate]

lmao

[tight kiln]

you can link some builds on the speed and i can tell you if its doable or not

[covert frigate]

i dont even know where to find builds lmao

[tight kiln]

honestly dont look at those zoom zoom build

most of them are mirror tier or super expensive

[covert frigate]

how do i find builds that are reasonable to reach?

[tight kiln]

you gotta know the scaling of each skills to know what you wanna build towards

which is why league starters are good to learn about poe mechanics before diving deeper

because they scale good without gear

https://youtu.be/HtU5mT1B0I0?si=xKGsfnDMQvvnE6yv

this is the fastest build in the game

it costs at least 8 mirrors

[covert frigate]

thats so many

[tight kiln]

1 mirror in poe1 now is 820 divs

so ye

[covert frigate]

ye theres no way lmao

[tight kiln]

thats why ben said "i dont understand why poe2 exists"

because hes a player that reaches this levels of power in poe1

[covert frigate]

ok, so is there anyway to make WOC build kill bosses faster?

[tight kiln]

uhhh

i need to see your pob

to understand whats going on

lol

[covert frigate]

i mean its not like its slow or anything

i just want it to be faster

but lets see if i can grab my pob and send it

[tight kiln]

its probably more links

more gem levels

[covert frigate]

https://pobb.in/dExzKQ0QbPvW

ok heres my current char

[tight kiln]

bro

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G8MMJJDF86Q

LOL

jim pls

[covert frigate]

i dont think im doing badly, bosses just takes more than 10 seconds to kill

honestly, i think i can take Flame Surge out of Arcanist Branch and cast it manually and that'll solve my boss kill problem

[tight kiln]

nono WoC should be your main dps

lol

[covert frigate]

is it supposed to be main dps alr?

[tight kiln]

you're playing arma brand now

yes

the build name is literally the main skill

lol

[covert frigate]

well the build im following says to run arma brand until i get to maps

but i feel like either are doing fine as main dps on mobs

[tight kiln]

any build guide that requires you to swap build to t1 maps is staight trash

[covert frigate]

lmao

[tight kiln]

because regrets are so hard to get early game

[covert frigate]

https://maxroll.gg/poe/build-guides/wave-of-conviction-elementalist-league-starter

im using this build

[tight kiln]

ye no

i dont trust maxroll at all

even if its ziziran

[covert frigate]

where can i get good realiable build guides?

[tight kiln]

i thought i linked another video for you to follow

[covert frigate]

you did, but i forgot to save the build in the video

and im too lazy to find it again

i guess i could find it again and follow that instead

[tight kiln]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8C-cdsb6Ek&t=262s&ab_channel=Jorgen

his mapping showcase is how you play WoC

are you playing settlers or necro settlers

[covert frigate]

idk what necro settlers is

i think im just in standard league?

[tight kiln]

check top right

[covert frigate]

im not in game rn

ill check tmr

[tight kiln]

if you're in settlers or standard i can pass you regrets to respec

[covert frigate]

damn im gonna need to respec a lot

[tight kiln]

yeah

LOL

the top fire tree

the fire pen doesnt make sense

LMAO

you dont need that wheel

you just need the dot ignite wheel

https://pobb.in/X8wJLNSKxKjR

you can follow the leveling one for now

this one is easily like

yellow tier doable

[bronze dirge]

https://old.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1idtg9q/pohx_is_hosting_a_private_league_for_the_community/

For PoE1 ^

[tight kiln]

https://www.pathofexile.com/private-leagues/league/Settlers+Restart+xdd+Thanks+GGG

pohx poe1 private league. 7.2k out of 9.5k players so far

[toxic wing]

Ssf?

[bronze dirge]

Trade

Its worth it a shot
Fresh economy usually very fun

[tight kiln]

1st arbiter yay

[tight kiln]

trade.

i probably wont play

9.5k people isnt really enough to make a proper economy lol

74% quant

[heavy blaze]

back to poe1 time boycott poe2!

[tight kiln]

playing pohx league?

[heavy blaze]

applied for it

[covert frigate]

@tight kiln ok im in game, how do i check what league my char is in?

[tight kiln]

press tab and see on top

it should say what league

[tight kiln]

i got no time to sweat it so im probably skipping

[covert frigate]

Yeh its just standard league

[tight kiln]

oof

okay

then the prices are all whack as fuck

i can come and pass you some regrets

[covert frigate]

Im doing lab rn

Ok nvm the game fucking died

Thnx ggg

[tight kiln]

LOL

whats your nick

god i love my shit

[covert frigate]

Abyssal_Void#1444

Yeh the game just crashed completely lmao

[tight kiln]

okay added you

[covert frigate]

Well i was only in the 3rd chamber of the lab anyway

[tight kiln]

wow all the shit i wanted to sell

lemme know when you're on

[covert frigate]

Im in

[tight kiln]

huh i dont see yu

add KuorriaAfflict_Witch

did you give a wrong name

[covert frigate]

That was my account name

Thnx

[tight kiln]

nah need the character you're currently on

[covert frigate]

Oh ok

[tight kiln]

enjoy good sir

i got about 500 div here if you need any

and 13k chaos

i dont really play standard

pohx league has 10k people now

imma be honest void i think joining pohx league might be good

its a controlled environment with current league mechanics for you to enjoy instead of the skewed market that is standard

as much as it is trade, 10k people isnt too much but not too little for an economy to get going, and decent enough people to get advice from in global chat.

you also need to go semi-ssf to learn since not everyone is playing the same character/build

holy they are adding more

[covert frigate]

Alright asc2 achieved

[tight kiln]

holyyyy

[covert frigate]

Bruh poe1 crashed twice alr today wtf

[tight kiln]

weird

i rarely crash in poe1

like really rare

wtf even poe.ninja is supporting the league

[toxic wing]

pro

not sure if i wanne play tbh

@blissful plume is there any way to get jump on this?

i have a +1 jump and +1 for chain skills on the side atm

no clue how fusing works tbh

it seems random

[blissful plume]

get a +1 jump with t2 skill area or lightning then fuse these together

[toxic wing]

does it matter on what row it is?

[blissful plume]

no

there's also a chance your t1 jump fuses with the t1 crit dmg

[toxic wing]

should i get some stuff on the aeterna tree then first

or does it not matter

[blissful plume]

fusing isn't affected by tree

besides cap of fuse currency you can hold

[toxic wing]

also got surging btw

it's 29% though

[blissful plume]

but fuse currency is a consumable now

good enough

you only get corroded 2 spell burst for when you swap from play safe to barrier of radiance

[toxic wing]

no clue what that means

[blissful plume]

your magister talent

then you no longer need cast speed as much

since each cast will give 2 spell bursts to your clones

[toxic wing]

kinda low on fe so i'll just save for now

can i do anything with these?

for the second candle

[blissful plume]

yeah if u fuse these 2, there's a chance for lightning dmg to fuse with your +1 jumps and chain skill

of coz its a all gamba and no guarantees

or it fuses the t1s to get t0 grudge

who knows

[toxic wing]

hm should i go for it if i'm low on fe

i cant really replace it if it bricks

[blissful plume]

then wait till you have enough fe in case it bricks

[covert frigate]

Yeh ive never crashed either but somehow crashed twice today

[heavy blaze]

just take it slow and applied for it no way say you need to sweat like a official league start

i use this league just for fun and new economy start

[heavy blaze]

someone found a lifesprig thats cheating already

[heavy blaze]

meme:
poe1 player:ggg can we have 3.26
ggg: we have 3.26 at home
at home -> pohx privat league

league is 2month end on 1st april most be out of season april fool joke

[toxic wing]

@blissful plume good enough?

lost a bunch of times

[blissful plume]

depends on how much crit chance u have

[toxic wing]

56,27 %

spell critical dmg is at 480%

[copper mortar]

more hayama poe thumbnails

[toxic wing]

she's really fallen in the poe hole

is she still playing monk?

[copper mortar]

she's doing a breachstone now https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uSFbOPm_DrU

[copper mortar]

yeah

[toxic wing]

i guess it's on theme

[copper mortar]

unless kaela did it offstream then this might be the first vtuber pinnacle boss kill

[copper mortar]

she killed xesht

[copper mortar]

she got her 4th ascendency (yes she did this after )

[toxic wing]

pohx his private league is full

they maxed it out pretty fast once someone posted about it on the poe1 sub

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnKvJYlAb-8

ziz got his vid out,mathil had one as well iirc

[tight kiln]

its not full

its 14.6k players over 16k

lol

[tight kiln]

maybe i try WoC Elementalist in pohx league and see how fast i can get to maps

oh its capped at 20k

[toxic wing]

yeah

when i opened it several hours ago it was at 18,5k or something

and filled up in like no time

ppl are asking ggg now to up the private cap

but yeah i guess the demand for a fresh restart is still there

doubt we'll get it one anytime soon though

[tight kiln]

nice

[covert frigate]

Bruh 3rd time poe1 crashed today

Wtf?

Maybe i need to restart laptop or smth

[blissful plume]

Or verify files

[bronze dirge]

Maybe try switching between DX11/12 to Vulkan or vice versa
Usually fixes it for me

[tight kiln]

ye

try switching

[copper mortar]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3_5OnoWKuP8

[tight kiln]

Wow LE not dead

[copper mortar]

no the devs are just slow

ether way now would be a good time to steal players from PoE

[tight kiln]

It actually is

Nvm its in april

"Yo look a spider!! See more in 3 months!"

[copper mortar]

this is what they're adding from the looks of it

weaver unqiues are the ones that upgrade from getting XP if you're forgotten

[tight kiln]

i didnt play season 1 at all

[copper mortar]

season 1 was just the release version

[toxic wing]

hows le endgame?

[tight kiln]

shittier than poe2

[toxic wing]

ez skip then

are you playing the private league?

[tight kiln]

nah

[copper mortar]

ehh, i would say it's better atm

it has more variety then "kill all the rares to complete the map"

and the monolith isn't actually infinite since you'll run into a orobyss shade at some point

[covert frigate]

alright made it to act 9

[copper mortar]

ether way they're clearly updating endgame so it's more of a wait to see situation

[covert frigate]

getting difficult to keep my ele res capped lmao

[toxic wing]

ignore the res for now

you'll usually start to fix that stuff around when you start mapping

if mapping is difficult you can always aquaduct farm and for levels

[covert frigate]

Lunaris and Solaris boss fight was really cool tho

[blissful plume]

use ur bench to fix res

[covert frigate]

i am

but even that isnt working too well

cause i also need to get enough str to equip my armor

[blissful plume]

are you leveling molten shell or something?

[covert frigate]

No

I just have a body armor that requires like 124 str

But it gives 900 armor

[toxic wing]

should be fine if you're playing a build that focusses on armor

[covert frigate]

The build runs determimation so im assuming it focuses on armor

[toxic wing]

No clue tbh
The thing is in poe 1 determination is such a good aura early on that it's worth running regardless of it

[blissful plume]

you're elementalist right?

or are you templar WoC?

cause in poe1, determination and grace are standard auras to run no matter what armor u use

even for ES

@tight kiln do u use str armor as woc?

[tight kiln]

no. evasion ES. you need ES for eldritch battery, evasion to get spell suppression

[blissful plume]

Void going str armor cause determination

[covert frigate]

the prev build guide i was using says stack armor

this new one doesnt specify what defensive scaling i should use

so i was just sticking to armor cause determination

[covert frigate]

yeh im elementalist

[toxic wing]

it's ok for now ig

but once you get to maps you should prob stick to the main defense

if it's evasion//es according to kuo you go for grace

with either a hybrid base of evasion/es or a pure evasion chest usually atleast for extra spell suppression

[tight oak]

so far not at all p2w, grind doesn't feel awful, basically just mapping

a very confusing mess though

also yeah if you're not like on the left or bottom side of the tree you kinda just default to evasion/es

exception of ranger being practically full evasion

maybe wardens go armor/eva actually

the RO server i'm working through right now and starting to make sense of it

[covert frigate]

Hows the combat?

I looked up some gameplay and it still look like tab targetting and not actual hack n slash arpg

[tight oak]

well it's RO

you press skills and things die

alternatively i play a build where i auto attack things and that procs spells

[gleaming palm]

very old mmo KEKW

[tight oak]

it's an MMO from 2005 made by a company that was/is both incompetent and extremely restrictive

[gleaming palm]

good for botting and sellling accs KEKW good and ez money back then thou

[tight oak]

RO was less about playing the game and more about being a social hub

[gleaming palm]

yea LOL

[tight oak]

unironically i've never seen any other MMO have

[toxic wing]

is it still profitable for botters to this day?

[tight oak]

as many god damn marriages happening in-game that translated to irl

[gleaming palm]

not really nowadays

[tight oak]

like istg 20% of the playerbase ended up getting together outside of the game

[gleaming palm]

i used to bot and sell accs for quick money after getting my 1st PC LOL

[low ermine]

probs at that time people were more comitted to meet each other irl compared to now with how easy and accessible communicating through internet and more couple just stay as e-couple

[covert frigate]

Wtf i didn't know RO was that weird lmao

[gleaming palm]

the gameplay is not bad for its age

[low ermine]

Yeah

[tight oak]

RO is one of the MMO genre's biggest "it could have been"s

[covert frigate]

I never played and only vaguely aware of it

[toxic wing]

it was pretty common for that stuff to happen in mmo's during that time tbf

[tight oak]

cause it was setup in practically every regard to succeed

[low ermine]

RO was my first mmo or online game in general

[tight oak]

before becoming an MMO it had a huge following from the manga, it had a creative director that already proved he was very capable

[copper mortar]

speaking of that, blade and soul neo global is out this month

[tight oak]

it just fell apart from incompetent suits trying to launch as a global powerhouse before it even got started

[low ermine]

Korean MMO was huge back then. Played RO, seal, RF and I forgot what else

[toxic wing]

is neo like another attempt at it?

i played the og

[tight oak]

to this day the art holds up very well, OST is beautiful and the game looks pretty

[gleaming palm]

i rmb RO had a "fan made" off game which was quite fun, its like an arcade game

i still can rmb the "thing" sound effect from logging in XD

[copper mortar]

yeah but it doesn't look great from what people say

[toxic wing]

still don't trust them after what they did to the og

if it's still the same publisher atleast

[tight oak]

i had so much fun with blade and soul

and then i didn't

i was but a humble blade ca dancer

[toxic wing]

smh blade dancers

[gleaming palm]

blade and soul also had different publishers for different regions >.>

[toxic wing]

i was an assassin main pretty much

[tight oak]

fighting assassins in pvp made me want to backflip out my window

even if i won it was so obnoxious

[toxic wing]

i felt the same about summoners

or summoner bots

[tight oak]

i only hated fighting scummoners if their pet interrupted me mid-grab

otherwise it was free cause they don't have a tab to break out of CC

force masters though

[toxic wing]

well the ones who were managing global

[tight oak]

get in and punish force master for mistake

frost nova --> teleport away

do the same in the next 15s

oops they can do it twice lol

[toxic wing]

i just played the tag game with them

if they did that

[tight oak]

i did eventually learn

that the moment they blew both i could just phantom grip them

[gleaming palm]

i played in the TW server with fan EN translations

[tight oak]

which lead to a 100-0

[gleaming palm]

so it was fine

[toxic wing]

too much lagg for me to play on other servers sadly

mainly cause i liked pvp though

[tight kiln]

[covert frigate]

wait theres an act 10?

i thought there are only 9 acts?

[tight kiln]

10 acts

you kill kitava as a final

[covert frigate]

is it the same length as other acts?

i thought you kill kitava in act 9

[tight kiln]

no act 9 is triple abomination

almost same length

i think act 10 is the shortest since you can zoom

easy shield charge flame dash spam

[covert frigate]

i mean ive been zooming in all the other acts anyway

[tight kiln]

you should be the moment you get all hits ignite

[covert frigate]

i think i should do some side dungeons to get craft recipe and unlock hideouts tho

ive been skipping a lot of sidequests too

[tight kiln]

a number of side quests give you points

like poe2

[covert frigate]

yeh i know

can you go back to prev act to do side quest after finishing the act?

[covert frigate]

Couldn't unlock incursion apex

https://tenor.com/view/crying-emoji-dies-gif-21956120

[covert frigate]

Ok say what you want about poe2, sanctum in poe1 is ass

Enemies attacks are way too hard to avoid getting hit by

[low ermine]

In PoE 2, for first ascendency you have to do sanctum. And people were complaining about it (including me, since I played melee, and earlier level melee was kinda hard since, especially in sanctum). It's ass.

[tight kiln]

sanctum in poe1 is harder than poe2

its also why the no-hit unique is 1.6 mirrors

aka original sin

[low ermine]

how much that flask cost now?

[tight kiln]

29 div

[covert frigate]

It wasnt that bad when i did it as caster in poe2

In poe1 even as caster, its pain

Fucking 8 squares quest item

Jonathan, you did it again

[blissful plume]

sanctum is optional in poe1

but in poe2 it isnt

different builds can do different league mechanics better than others and by better I mean less pain points

[low ermine]

yeah, that what makes it suck. It's mandatory for ascendancy 1. Yes ofc you can skip Sanctum and directly go Ultimatum, but in league start character, you kinda need that ascendency upgrade (depends on your build) like my monk. I need the spirit from ascendency

[blissful plume]

blood mage doesn't need ascendancy 1

[covert frigate]

Damn the atlas skill tree is as complex as the passive skill tree

Do i need to look up an atlas build guide too?

[bronze dirge]

You can search for atlas progression trees

[tight kiln]

do you care about actually rushing to t16s

[low ermine]

you can, or you can just pick your fav league mechanic and type it on your atlas for the path.

[tight kiln]

people will rush to t16s

then farm from there

but usually.

i rush to this first

[covert frigate]

nah i want to take my time learning the endgame

hm, i think im most interested in doing more delirium, incursion, and breach rn

the rush is fun

[tight kiln]

ye but you need

map sustain

so you still need to rush middle

[tight kiln]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVOfwMWhMvU

[tight kiln]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5nTFO6k7O7g

[blissful plume]

AH was mostly because LE had one and ggg got scared that they would fall behind if they didn't compete on that

[tight kiln]

their outdated ideologies

[copper mortar]

not that the LE auction house is good mind you

[blissful plume]

The idea scaring them was more than good enough for ggg to act

[toxic wing]

Is that flask on the same rarity as the maven one when it comes to droprate?

[covert frigate]

i keep dying once or twice in map cause my game freezes lmao

turns out even poe1 doesnt run that well

[toxic wing]

Idk for me poe 1 runs way smoother personally compared to 2

I only freeze or lagged before when they do the clear cache thing that you need to build up or when i'm doing deli + some other heavy stuff while juicing the maps

[fluid timber]

I'm not gonna act like it's amazingly optimized but if you're having issues with two games on different engines a significant number of eyars apart, you might have an underlying issue

actually looks like they're still using their own engine for POE2, I thought they switched to something else. So looks like there's something with your hardware/drivers that REALLY doesn't like whatever they built in-house

[covert frigate]

its still smooth

only when loading into a new map(incursion for example) or when lots of enemies are spawning at once that it lags

but if enough enemies are spawning, the game just freezes

at least boss fights arent a problem cause theres no huge amount of enemies spawning

[covert frigate]

im pretty sure its just the models loading in

smth weird with how the engine load models i guess

[covert frigate]

Are uniques worth holding onto or should i just sell them to vendors if i don't use them?

Or should i try to trade them?

[tight oak]

awakened poe trade is your best friend for determining if items are worth holding onto quickly

this deep in the league 98% of uniques are trash

at the start it's closer to maybe 80% of uniques are unusable garbage (especially weapons)

[covert frigate]

yeh i checked and all the stuff i had sells for like 1 chaos orb lmao

[tight kiln]

At your stage rn most uniques are 1c or 1 alc.

[tight kiln]

Have you tried dx11/12/vulkan?

[covert frigate]

Bruh poe doesnt even boot up anymore wtf?

Time to verify files i guess

[tight oak]

for some ungodly reason my poe will explode and die on everything except dx10(dx11?)

[covert frigate]

GGG magic

[covert frigate]

Damn validating file didn't fix?

Lets see if restarting does

[covert frigate]

You know what? I think the reason why my game is freezing when huge amount of enemies spawn is cause im playing the game on max setting

[toxic wing]

as in everything maxed?

you could prob mess with the settings or worst case scenario mute the sound or something as well

[covert frigate]

Yes every graphic setting was max lmao

Also they removed divine blessing support?

[tight kiln]

yes its dead

they dont want people to cheese an extra aura with no downsides

GGG added 10k more slots to pohx league

[covert frigate]

Hm this guide tells me to put molten shield on left click to constantly cast it while moving but seems like ggg disabled that too

Jonathan HATES fun

[blissful plume]

i don't think molten shell on left click was ever a thing

[tight kiln]

it was

you just move as usual

but yes

left click is now solely for moving or non-instant skills

wait which guide are you using

ziziran one still?

[blissful plume]

hmm guess i've only ever used builds with molten shell on cwdt

[covert frigate]

No the video you gave me

Ok i have capped res and like 4k armor but some packs can still just one shot me in maps from off screen

What do i do now?

[tight kiln]

huh jorgen plays armor?

[tight kiln]

pob?

huh wtf interesting

oh

his auras dont really work anymore

he only updated his skill tree to 3.25 lmao

[covert frigate]

https://pobb.in/Rn4a39dXD5Yc

heres my current char

[tight kiln]

you're probably getting killed by

phys

hmm i dont like your tree but you dont have the gear to move stuff rn

i should start pohx league and play WoC as well

i forgot how i progressed

[covert frigate]

Its literally the same tree as the build you linked me lmao

[covert frigate]

Im getting killed by phys even tho i have like 60% phys dmg reduction?

[tight kiln]

ye i didnt realize jorgen was playing armor

[tight kiln]

60% is nothing in poe1

LOL

[covert frigate]

Guess ill just have to live with this for now?

[tight oak]

oh damn pohx league is happening

i didnt know

guess ill start late

[tight kiln]

your target now is to get enough resists to remove purity of elements.

[tight oak]

tbh

i don't take off purity until freeze immunity

usually through brine king

[tight kiln]

he has a freeze flask

[tight oak]

oh then yeah makes sense

[covert frigate]

And how do i accomplish that? Just pick up and id all the rares i find on the ground to get good res?

[tight oak]

early on pretty much

there is a little basic crafting you can do to get decent resists

never needed to go out of my way for it though

either ends up being pick up a rare --> id it --> good resists + vital stat (i.e. movement speed on boots), bench it and socket it

or it's a 5/6-link --> alch it and bench it

[covert frigate]

Ok makes sense

[covert frigate]

Lmao i need to remember to check if my auras are on or not

Did a tier 3 map with 0 auras on and it was miserable

[blissful plume]

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3716196 no need to

Reddit did it with their crying

[covert frigate]

Ok i got to cap ele res without purity of elements

Now what

Still have -60 chaos res tho

[blissful plume]

Early maps chaos res isn't that important

[fluid timber]

GGG be wilding with their rollercoaster announcements

[blissful plume]

Guess they didn't expect backlash at all to their announcement

They were hoping everyone just ate the news and moved on

[tight kiln]

you can map to t16s with -60% chaos ress no issue.

i can guide you to my set up

i really dont like their set up at all lmao

[tight kiln]

use malevolence now

actually

use pob to see if hatred or malevolence is better

[covert frigate]

how do i check which is better?

just switch one for the other and see which gives more dmg?

wait hatred is cold dmg

[tight kiln]

its extra phys as cold.

oh ye

right

they changed hatred to no longer give cold damage to spells

nvm

use malevolence then

remember WoC is physical based spell that gets converted to fire

so juicing any physical base also works

[covert frigate]

wait for some reason pob is saying hatred gives more combined dps

[tight kiln]

yes

because its also a hit

[covert frigate]

i still have no idea how "extra x dmg as y" scale

[tight kiln]

idk how to explain it properly

LOL

[covert frigate]

lmao

damn GGG always making everything so complicated

[tight kiln]

but yes i used herald of ash and herald of purity for my build

2 heralds

[covert frigate]

so should i grab hatred or stick with Malevolence?

surprised that for a DOT build, the hit is still such a big part of the dps

[tight kiln]

the bigger the hit the bigger the ignite damage

use hatred then

now try to get 5L

swift affliction, burning damage, deadly ailment, unbound ailment

get this for your fire mastery as well

[civic grove]

turns out backlash does matter

[tight oak]

wait, PR matters when your revenue depends on sustained transactions?

curious

[tight kiln]

ye

[covert frigate]

planning out my Atlas tree, does smth like this look alright?

https://poeplanner.com/a/bEB

[tight kiln]

Ye looks good

Add 2 more nodes on the small exarch diamond shape for more exarch pack size

Exarch is really good for small currency farming

[copper mortar]

have fun with the balls though

[tight kiln]

1st time i see people go for delirium first

[covert frigate]

idk i just like delirium

its cool

is it bad?

[tight kiln]

nah

but the difficulty is way different than poe2

it scales with the amount of base rewards and the tier of the rewards

https://streamable.com/njsd4r

500 mil dps wave 30

its basically delete it before it deletes you

[covert frigate]

lmao insane

how many divs is this build?

[tight kiln]

uhhh

lol

about 2 mirrors

[tight kiln]

https://pobb.in/WQ5f0ERev9ee

pob isnt accurate because the gem got nerfed and the damage is after the nerf.

helmet is 1 mirror alone.

that timeless jewel is one of the most insane jewels i managed to buy

[covert frigate]

bruh ive never even seen most of those modifiers

these exist?

[tight kiln]

yes

lol

welcome to poe1 crafting

thats why people see poe2 "crafting" and its like ??????????????????????

[covert frigate]

how do you add the flask modifier that make them use when full?

[covert frigate]

are these league mechanic crafting or are they just base game crafting?

[tight kiln]

both

its mostly base game crafting

[covert frigate]

i gotta learn crafting cause damn, these modifiers are crazy

[tight kiln]

its essence spam into apply influence into elevating influence

https://youtu.be/l8m-4J0OtVk?si=HOg6xXV5V__d5Kxh

this is 7 link. mine is a 9 link

[covert frigate]

i dont even know what influence is

[tight kiln]

uhhh

[covert frigate]

you can get to 9 link?

i thought 6 link is max

[tight kiln]

yep

[covert frigate]

[tight kiln]

basically 4 links on helmet

anything socketed related = 1 link

so my penance brand in this case has

Penance Brand links with

• Empower
• Swift Brand
• Intensify
• +2 levels
• Concentrated Effect Level 25
• Hypothermia Level 25
• +30% more Elemental Damage
• +4% Base Critical Strike Chance

you can even do 12 link btw

[covert frigate]

damn

[tight kiln]

https://pobb.in/WtZa0zalTVwJ

this is my 11 link carrion golem

[covert frigate]

i see the difference between an insane zoomy build and a build that can just clear content now

[tight kiln]

yes

oh nvm thats a 9 link

10 link*

cast on crit is literally one of the best builds to ever play in poe

once you play a good CoC build you cannot turn back

nice CoC

https://streamable.com/3fwdwo tornado shot cast on crit ice spear

[covert frigate]

i have no idea whats even going on in this vid lmao

[tight kiln]

i dont have the build here i think

[tight kiln]

basically using an attack based skill to cast spell

[covert frigate]

that was about the crafting vid

[tight kiln]

oh

its normal

thats why there's a 3rd party site to allow you to play with crafting even before you commit to buying the stuff required for said craft

https://www.craftofexile.com/

[covert frigate]

assuming i even know what im playing with

but thats why trading exists i guess

[tight kiln]

https://youtu.be/DXDxV0pccxw?si=vGS9qYijDQUPMKb_

[covert frigate]

so people who are focused on doing other mechanics can still get good gear from people who are crafting

[tight kiln]

2 years ago

yes

basically you farm whatever mechanic you want to buy the item you need

the easiest way to earn money is from crafting

a lot of people profit craft in poe1

[covert frigate]

its very interesting GGG basically setup a natural job specialization that let people freely pick jobs they want and organically contribute to and benefit from the economy

[tight kiln]

yep

thats why people play poe1 like some stock market irl economy trading LOL

[covert frigate]

its something i dont think any MMOs has ever even managed to achieve

[tight kiln]

its the reason why people who play poe1 says "wtf is poe2"

[covert frigate]

i understand now

i see why POE1 is so good

[tight kiln]

but its also because of all these systems most people are like

"nah fuck this im not putting time to learning a PHD in poe"

[covert frigate]

POE2 acts and new player experience are better than POE1, but once you get pass those hurdles, POE1 is insanely great

[tight kiln]

you should watch the videos of streamers who were playing D4 and drops to poe1 for the first time

raxx, darth microtransactions etc

[covert frigate]

thats fair too, there are so many mechanics and each mechanics has so much depth to learn that its the equivalent of getting a PHD

[tight kiln]

thats why im like

7k hours in?

im still fucking shit at the game

LOL

[covert frigate]

i dont watch streamers outside of vtubers

[tight kiln]

its a good insight that they have

especially DM

[tight oak]

wave 30 sims isnt too hard

wave 30 sims deathless is pretty god damn hard

and yeah poe1 with a fresh economy is a massive socioeconomic hub

which is what all MMOARPGs should strive for

[tight kiln]

ye that was deathless

but they removed the 1st 15 waves now

the new wave 15 is the old wave 30 now

[toxic wing]

Kuo too pro

[copper mortar]

here's the leaked poe1 ascendencies for the league

[covert frigate]

Time to main Scourge

[toxic wing]

The visionary is too op

[fluid timber]

gonna roll Dead

[tight kiln]

@covert frigate think the new patch might fix the freeze on poe2 for your pc

[covert frigate]

well its too late now

im addicted to POE1

[tight kiln]

LMAOOOOOOOO

Welcome to the crew sir

The addiction will carry you for the next 5 thousand hours.

[covert frigate]

well idk about that

i have a lot of games to play

but a few hundred hours at least

and prob more later on when more leagues drop
