in hindsight the idea to use varunastra with blade flurry might be actually overkill

I just hope they don't overreact when they nerf the poo poo out of it, I like the skill itself a lot

OK when did Cospri's Malice get up to 9ex? Makes me want to sell the one I bought for 1ex early in the league. Too bad it's too fun to do that.

If Blade Flurry lasts til 2.5 un-nerfed, will it be the biggest Flavor of the League skill ever? - Apparently OP as all get-out - New, so most players will also want to try it for the novelty - "Melee" so people who've been scared of melee builds finally have an excuse to try them out - Seems to excel at both boss-killing and clearing rather than being sub-par at one or the other - Could probably fit into a lot of potential builds even before taking into account that it being OP means builds that will get no use of it if it's nerfed will still be able to run it just fine - In the right build, will do good work in a 4-link as things stand, so can be flexibly slotted into a lot of non-BF builds too

It's definitely new meta if it doesn't get changed. It completely supersedes reave from what I've been seeing, and doesn't require a vaal skill to match reave's aoe. It will almost certainly get changed in some way. Hopefully they'll fix up blight too, because it looks and feels like garbage.

Seems pretty standard. A new enemy encounter type that leads to new bosses with new unique loots. I like the theme though.

RF Totem still seems like a decent build in 2.5.0? That new unique shield is giving me horrible ideas

It's a 3 month league... Glad to hear Blade Flurry is OP as gently caress and hope it stays that way, because I'm thinking of making a max block/bleed Gladiator.

https://www.twitch.tv/aggnog/v/101787467 Ahahahahaha good skill. For those who don't want to watch the whole video: Incredibly well geared ED/Contagion Occultist running 3 curses, 13000 ES, and two 6-links tries a lvl 18 6-link Blight in Dried Lake. It takes him 20 full seconds of standing there and casting to kill Voll.

Oh, I could have sworn that they wanted to do a 1 month league. Not entirely sure if the gimmick is good enough to entertain for a whole 3 month league, but we'll see.

After about the first month of any league, the number of players drops sharply. I would like to see shorter leagues but that would force them to come up with new content much faster than they're able to at the moment. The new skills have gotten some people playing Essence again, but it's mostly for testing before Reach begins.

There were rumors of a 1 month challenge league but it looks like they probably replaced it with that racing weekend thing? I totally remember there being rumblings of a 1-monther.

I haven't played this game before, but will try it now. Looks like something big is coming in 2 weeks though.. Either way, I want to play now. What are some ideas (character builds? modes? mods?) that would be a fun way to play this game as a totally new player right now?

Hey havent played poe in awhile im just wondering when this league ends and the next starts?

Thanks for the tips everyone. I'm trying to get the "Play More" bit down but outside of my longer stints on my days off I'm not squeezing much time into this game quite yet. I will hopefully be a more powerful gamer in 2 weeks when Breach League starts. Also is it just me or is the $60 Breach Supporter Pack some really insanely good value? $55 of points along with cosmetics that are probably like $15 on their own seems really good

The supporter packs are always great deals if you enjoy the specific cosmetics. Cosmetics are super expensive in this game, and as you've noted you get almost the full value of points.

Blade Flurry with a claw, class and build should be irrelevant because for two weeks it shouldn't be nerfed

So, I want to jump on the Blade Flurry bandwagon, but I don't know what to really go for passive-wise or gear wise. I have some good options, namely two Varunastras and a Carcass Jack, but I have no idea where to start, what ascendancy to go with, or passives. I mostly play casters, the closes i've done to melee builds are a Mjolner build and a CoC cyclone.

Bluemillion posted:The entire point of Blight is that the damage stacks. There isn't a single cast speed node on that tree. It benefits linearly from stacking, a contagion build switching over will be pretty close to as good as the skill can get. Cast speed is most likely the place to eke more damage out of it, but it also looks like supporting essence drain with wither would be a better use of your time. Maybe there's a unique item or support gem interaction the dude is missing though, that'd make Blight shine

I saw one thread where a guy test ran blade flurry on his coc cyclone and it worked pretty well just substituting it in. Attacks fast for good procs, good single target hits via the stacks mechanic and hilariously low mana cost. Downside was the stopping to channel it but it seemed alright if you are on the ball about playing a little more dynamically between cast and movement skills.

So in the new league, you click a thing and mobs appear. What a unique idea for POE.

Seems fine to me, it's a mix of beyond/rampage, fated uniques v2, and the usual boss summon via farmable items that they've used since atziri since it works well.

I dropped a Blade Flurry into my Lacerate 5l and it feels so much better already. What would a Flurry 5L that's pure phys look like? Flurry/Melee Phys/Faster Attacks/Fortify/?

I wish they'd do something a bit different but if you think about it, there's not a lot they can do other than monsters having more stats, scary monsters that attack you or lots or scary monsters that only attack you when you click something. I'd much rather the breaches happened on top of you at least once a zone without any input from you as well, so it's more like Invasion +the best league) and less like a strongbox

Also keep in mind that every other league is supposed to be a small update so GGG can spend more time on the bigger patches, which in this case is 3.0. And 3.0 hits in like 15 weeks.
