Kild posted:is there a vid of his build? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VDMubijFGNs It's a cool idea, I had no idea the Scourge claw could be used for spells as well. But at its core it basically exploits the whole poison meta. The other clever idea is summoning the dogs and using them to finish off mobs that weren't quite killed by bladefall (which I've always found to be the clunkiest part of selfcast bladefall).

StashAugustine posted:inventory tetris probably has something to do with it. Problem is, I'm running t7-8 maps right now just alch and go (with chaos for anything that looks unmanageable) but I still only feel like I'm only keeping my head above water by doing chaos recipe, with the occasional exception of a rare unique or something I can sell. And I did just get a Shav's so that's nice but that's the only really good drop I've gotten so far  ) and I'm making a small profit on each one, though with quite a bit of variability depending on what drops on each map. If it's useful, here's what I'm doing:- The UN-id'd chaos recipe (which yields 2 chaos instead of 1) is great, and the source of the majority of my steady income. I basically just collect UN-ID'd rare rings and amulets and belts and throw them in a dedicated stash tab. Whenever I've got a few I just grab a bunch of un-id'd rares out of the next map and flog them to the vendors. I hardly bother ID'ing rares any more with a few exceptions for things like wands, 2h weapons on good bases and ES armour. Everything else just gets left or used for the chaos recipe. - If you can be bothered you can make use of the ID'd chaos recipe too by using all your lovely low-tier essences to effectively alch white rings and amulets and belts, but it's only half as efficient and you'll run out of low-tier essences eventually. - Even bad/common uniques can often be sold for 1-3 alch, which will pay for your next couple of maps. Silver coins are a good source of money, too: whenever I've got about 25 or so I fill up my prophecies. Monstrous Treasure is fairly common and goes for ~15 chaos or so. 6S weapons or armour are good, too: you can sell them for 7 jewellers, then use Clarissa in Act 3 to trade the jewellers for fusings. That means every 6S drop is worth something like 2/3rds of a chaos. That gives you a baseline trickle of cash, then it's just a case of farming so you can benefit from the occasional money drops, like exalted orbs, good div cards, the occasional sellable rare, etc. Clear speed is probably the single most important thing for earning money. edit: oh and get an item filter if you don't have one Zephro fucked around with this message at 11:46 on Oct 5, 2016 |

I've been pretty much doing all of that except selling the trash uniques, and banking your coins in case of a good prophecy doesn't sound like a bad idea either although I've never gotten one that's worth more selling than running.

I would suggest you stop doing the un-id chaos recipe and sell mediocre/good rares to players instead. I have made an order of magnitude more currency by IDing items since they added the stash tab API. I don't even bother with the id'd chaos recipe anymore. It's just not worth my time or effort.

I have recently been going the way of picking up less, a lot less ,skipping the chaos recipe completely and just running more maps faster. I don't mind running yellow maps even though I have over half a stash tab of t11-13. I only pick up currency, cards, maps, 6s, jewels and rares of specific types that are more likely to be valuable. The last one is the one that requires some experience, however a good item filter goes a long way. I don't roll these maps well at all, it's all about numbers - good layouts and density. If they're under t10 I even run them blue sometimes. If there's less than 50 mobs left and I don't know where, I leave the map rather than look for them. This approach will obviously only work if you can maintain a super high clear speed, and you have a map pool to sustain unlucky streaks.

Well I don't seriously start running a tier until I've got at least 15 or so of them. I also don't really have a good grasp on how to evaluate rares other than "life + resists = good"

Morticia makes me hard posted:really? you've been selling ilvel 60-74 poo poo to other players? I doubt that Believe it or not, people usually care more about affixes on rares than item level. Sure they can't roll the absolute top end affixes, but they can still roll high affixes. Most of my currency has come from trades for ~5c or less. Also, people buy items while levelling. E: ^^ a good way to get a feel for the value of various rares/affixes is to put a load up for sale and note what sells quickly. ..btt fucked around with this message at 13:48 on Oct 5, 2016 |

I'm new to having a character in endgame, how do people handle maps. I'm doing t10-t11, but I only have one t10 left and no more t11s. I have about 3 t9's and 10 each of the t7-t5. Is there some general rule of thumb?

Ask in guild for people to trade you maps that you don't have, and run them for atlas completion. It gets incredibly easy (compared to pre-atlas) to sustain red maps at a certain point. I've got probably just about every yellow map you could want and I'll just give you them if you message me ingame, and I'm sure that a lot of us are just as willing to help out.

My CWDTZerker is mapping up a storm now. It's great, I spin into a mob, and either they all die or I do.  For real, though, it's actually surprisingly strong! The real trick is that I really need level 20 CWDT and spell gems and that costs a lot more than you'd think I also really really need to finally clear uber lab for Cloaked in Savagery because at that point I'll be nearly immortal.

I've got this Vortex-Ignite up and running and it's pretty strong, but I've got a coupla sticking points: 1. I'm running dual-curse and discipline, as well as the 2 -4% mana reserved nodes and Deep Thoughts. This gives me enough mana to run around casting Vortex, but I wonder if that's too steep of a price to pay to have enfeeble on blasphemy. Alternately, I could just do a cwdt/curse on hit for enfeeble, I guess? 2. Is there some way to get sustain on this build? The life leech from Ghost Reaver is real garbage. I guess I'd need Zealot's Oath, but I don't know how to build up that regen?

What's a good way to level in the 90's, raking up a few more deaths then I'd like with 7k life, been stuck at 50% to level for ages because anytime I'll make progress I'll run across something that explodes on death, either a giant pack I'll stand in the middle of without seeing the explosion in time, or a essence mob that exploded on death and one shot me, or just a map boss that suddenly pulls out a 1 hit. Makes me want to reroll a CI character with those 5 digit life pools.

Morticia makes me hard posted:the first to 100 in hardcore was kinetic blast miner, so do that For real the Bladefall Totem build I put together is really, really safe: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Ultima66/characters I'm just kind of bored of it because it's a totem build that doesn't blow up everything instantly. Clear speed and boss damage is pretty much the same as Essence Drain as far as I can tell, with what I believe is better single target damage but I really can't tell for sure. It combines all the perks of being a 10000+ ES Soul Strike Occultist with the advantages of playing totems so you never have to be near dangerous enemies and can spend all your time running around. Also actually hitting enemies is less awkward than with ED to me personally. The mana costs suck though.

how does Wither work with the new channeling skill system? can't seem to find much up to date info specifically wondering if, when in a totem, you need faster casting support or other support gems to get it to max stacks, or does the new channel system just let it get to 20 stacks naturally?

cl_gibcount 9999 posted:how does Wither work with the new channeling skill system? can't seem to find much up to date info Not even close. Wither has a cast time of 0.28s, which works out to 3.57 casts/second. Spell Totem knocks this down by 30% to a nice even 2.5 casts / second. Wither itself lasts only 2 seconds, which means ST Wither can only maintain 4 stacks naturally (ok, 5, for like a nanosecond). You'd need either 300% increase in some combination of cast speed and/or duration in order to get 20 stacks total (10 casts / second times 2 seconds = 20 casts; 2.5 casts / second times 8 seconds = 20 casts). Or you can be a Hierophant and and grab Ancestral Bond/Ritual of Awakening and have 4 totems drop Wither on targets simultaneously It's sounds like you're thinking Wither works the same as Flameblast, which they did change the interaction with ST on. With FB, you can cast it until it gets up to its max of 10 charges and hold it there until your fingers fall off, but that's stupid as you'll eventually want to actually release to set it off. Well Spell Totem used to do just that, and would only release FB when the totem itself died. Now the interaction is that as soon as it reaches max charges it will stop casting (releasing FB) and then start back up again, continuing the cycle until the totem dies, which is infinitely better to work with (source: am Flameblast Totem this league). whypick1 fucked around with this message at 02:56 on Oct 6, 2016 |
