My best PoE name is Vampira which I have no idea how it hasn't been taken yet. So very edgy.

Also Doctor_Robotnik which I've never gotten to using, I think I'll do it when I make a flame totem build.

I delete any character that's lower level and the same ascendency as standard.

So I think right now the cutoff is 92-93 for most like raider, assassin, berserker, jugg, and slayer. This league was my first necromancer to 90+ so they get kept. Ideally it means eventually I have 19 characters that will always stay on standard and 5 that I can use for leagues/races. They all get renamed to _Slayer or _Juggernaught eventually, whenever I feel like bugging support.

there should be a super hardcore where instead of getting dumped into standard on death it immediately deletes your character and everything he owns

'n suddenly there was a terrible roar all around us 'n the sky was full of what looked like 'uge bats, all swooping 'n screeching 'n divin' around the ute.
My entire PoE career is based around making clever puns or references with my character names, which is why I'm inordinately proud of Thomas_The_Shank_Engine and Dead_Frag_Bruise.

I think for people who play hardcore this is basically how it already works. No-one is dropping back to standard to play their dead toons.

Yeah, I have never touched any HC character of mine, outside of it's own league. I might change that, though.
Do you play HC Vulpes? Because if so, combined with your avatar, we would be best mates.

There should be a super hardcore mode where the character's death deletes the MTX that was equipped.

Just did an uber Izaro. He dropped an axe and Death's Door.
I'm probably keeping the axe and level a Slayer, but not sure if I still want to this league.

clearly that should be a scorching ray character who has a totem which casts it, 3/10

So.. I have an 86 Juggernaut that runs around with 60k armour, 8 or 9 endurance charges, ~1.1k life regen and 6.2k life.
He's currently dualwield Cleave (Labrunner) on a 5-L Brass Dome. Pseudo-6 link with the Cleave gem.
What holds me back from swapping the dualwield set-up to the 2h above?
Surely Cleave is not the best pick, but I could just as easy swap in Cyclone when I would like to map farm right?

Am I missing something obvious why it would be a bad idea?

You could swap to cyclone, earthquake or sunder with no problems at all

is there any way to drop more than one totem at a time?

I'd love to dual wield arc totems, or drop an arc totem and a life drain totem

Ancestral Bond (either from the tree or from Soul Mantle) or Tutokohama's Fortress. The former prevent you from dealing any damage, the latter is super duper expensive.

If you're Scion or Templar, the Hierophant ascendancy also grants +totems.

Ancestral bond keystone gives +1 totem at the cost of no longer being able to do damage yourself, one of the heirophant ones gives several with a damage penalty per active totem, tukokama's shield, iron commander bow (but only siege ballistas), skirmish quiver.

The Ancestral Bond keystone (+1 active totem, you can't deal damage with your skills yourself) and the Hierophant Ascendancy for Templars both let you drop extra totems. You can have up to four totems just with those two.

What happens in the course of duty is up to you...
Ancestral Bond is the most common way.
Hierophant also has a node for +2 totems.

Is a super expensive shield with +1, and a cheap armor.

I'm running a summoner witch, so right now its 5 zombies, an arc totem, and a horde of skeles when I remember to spawn them, so I can't see losing the ability to do damage myself being too bad.

Now to figure out how to find this stuff

Going to work on that spec then.

Teasers for next league:

quote:

There is a new boss in Act Nine
We have the first ever socketable belt coming
Green and black are the colours of a new league
We've prepared a new stash tab type for this expansion
There are 4 new skill gems and 6 support gems coming

Are they just re-doing the trio or completely removing that Black Core part as well? I read gud
I'm sure there's a dick joke to be had here
No green and red for Christmas? Missed opportunity
Already preparing myself for it not being maps, although maybe a subset of maps (frags and Offerings)?
I would like to know more
