They changed a ton of engine stuff this patch, it'll probably be a while before they iron all the kinks out. Good news is the game's performance is way better for most people who aren't you

There's been a bunch of new crashes introduced this patch, it's normally a very stable game all in all. Some are more common than others - are you using any trap skills by chance?

So....pathfinder BV feels very clunky and unwieldy right now (towards end of Cruel diff). Part of the problem is that I'm using ZiggyD's build (he went CI around 70), but also he's using a main BV and then a secondary BV (for curses), and I'm wondering if that's really the best option. Granted, once I get to where I can spam quicksilver (per Rodent), maybe it'll be better -- I dunno tho. This is what I have thus far tho: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/shinino/characters

So what exactly do I do re: builds and skill gems while leveling, I'm just kind of using whatever skills I find and am mucking along okay but it doesn't feel very... coherent? I guess that's the word

I guess that's the word Generally you want to focus on 1-2 skills and look for gear with linked sockets that'll let you attach support gems to that skill. Make sure to check the vendors in town since they sell skill/support gems after certain quests in each act. For spellcasters you can level with Firestorm very easily regardless of your final build and you get it in Act 1. In Act 2 you have access to more support gems and Herald of X skills. Act 3 gets you more auras and high-end attack skills, and Act 4 has niche skill/support gems.

I guess that's the word Not an expert, but what I generally do is pick a skill and class (and weapon if necessary) from the start (even if I don't want to use it right away), look up or (if you're more experienced) plan a build around it, then go from there.

Started up a Sunder 2H Mace Templar, having a lot of fun these first 30 levels; using Heavy Strike for solo targets seems to work well. Haven't grabbed any mace specific nodes yet, so could still swap over to axes as well. I've got Resolute Technique right now to give up crits and always hit, but I'm probably going to grab Inquisitor for my ascendancy; should I drop Resolute Technique and start scooping up crit chance / elemental damage nodes around the time I do? Right now giving up 5% crit chance for the jump from 80% to 100% to hit is a no brainer, but I wonder if I shouldn't drop it later one. e: Basically looking at a core of this: https://www.poeurl.com/LhX Mo_Steel fucked around with this message at 23:30 on Sep 5, 2016 |

Does the chill from Vortex apply before damage? For the purposes of getting Hypothermia to apply to the initial hit.

baby puzzle posted:Aren't there skills that are literally just better than heavy strike? Like molten strike? No idea? I remember Heavy Strike being the def-facto single target damage dealer back in the day I thought and it's been a while since I've played. Heavy Strike: Deals (150-193.7)% of Base Attack Damage Molten Strike: Deals (120-146.6)% of Base Attack Damage 60% of Physical Damage Converted to Fire Damage 2 additional Projectiles 40% less Projectile Damage With the right supports maybe it would do more based on how often thew orbs overlap on the single target?  I'm open to suggestions.

Is getting skill gems you want hard at all, or are all of the gems builds get based on available pretty early on? I'm still in A1 though I think I'm near the end if I'm in the jail.

No. Getting every single skill gem you need is quite easy now. And you're more like halfway through A1.

I'm still in A1 though I think I'm near the end if I'm in the jail. 99% of gems can be bought at vendors for pretty cheap by the end of normal difficulty, although not all by one class so you might need to get people in guild to grab you one.

Close enough  I might restart with a more concrete plan in mind now that I have a (very slightly) better idea how the game works.Some questions while I drawl through the gamepedia wiki- - With Ascendancy, does class choice mean significantly more than a starting location on the grid now? Do classes get any unique skills, or is it purely passives? - What do I keep and what do I sell and what do I not even bother picking up? What's worth stashing? - Story and lore interesting enough to pay attention to? I know most of you lot have been through it all several times by now but still - There really don't seem to be any holy smiting type skills and that makes me sad  - Is guild membership by character or by account? gently caress everything ever if it's the former, argh Ciaphas fucked around with this message at 01:52 on Sep 6, 2016 |

Class choice is now pretty big. No unique skills but pretty much every ascendency has some pretty gamechanging passives. Keep uniques (although a lot are kinda poo poo), sell rares you won't use (you want life + resists on gear, damage on weapons) and all currency Lore is kinda okay but its not something most people pay attention to By account but you're invited by character for some reason

It's probably too much to take in right now, but you can see all the ascendancies and their passives here: https://www.pathofexile.com/ascendancy/classes/ What to pick up and what not to is pretty complex, but you can download a loot filter which will hide items you shouldn't pick up and highlight most you should. I'm not sure which one is popular since I roll my own and people have been complaining about Neversink's changes this patch. Lore is pretty interesting in that its largely inspired by Lovecraft and Maori mythology. The stuff that you click on to play voiceovers are generally the most interesting stuff (e.g. all of Kaom's lieutenant's rock carvings in act 1 are nice), followed by asking the masters about poo poo. The non-master townsfolk are generally mundane. Post a character name with a guild invite request.
