The Fragment tab is live now. https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2079766 75 GGG points.

I don't see the point in buying tabs for things you'll never have more then half a stash of by the end of a league.

I could fit all of my offerings/fragments/divine vessels/essences all in the same tab and still have room.

If you HAVE to spend money, get 2-3 regular tabs for the same price as one fancy tab.

Here's a video of me using it on a jugger (so no gladiator explosions and no haemo gloves)

The best part of that video is you capturing me bragging about all the cool poo poo I bought for my new character.

~30 maps, zero depths. I think that's around a 125% buff to liches instead of the pillars but I'm not sure.

i already have 60 ptabs and 4 big stash tabs, and dont use like 20 of them, at this point these specific tabs are more for convenience of not having to manually organize poo poo.

I got 3 liches in like 15-20 white maps, and the last one dropped a 2socket glove! I've not had any non-lich depths today. If you include all the maps I ran before and after the spree, I'd say 3 depths in maybe 50 maps?

yea it is kind of funny every new specific tab they come out with reduces another premium tab you need to use. Kind of wish we could sacrifice some premium tabs as a trade in to get a specific tab.

Or just recycle premium tabs into points at half value or whatever. At this point they're mostly just in the way

I have like 24 premium tabs. Previously, they would all be full and need to be sorted every weekend or so. Now like four of them are dumping grounds for characters before I delete them, six of them aren't named, and I didn't sort them all league.

Well, shit.
The more you play, the more you recognise what items are worth keeping and therefore the less space you need for storage. It's ironic that newbie players need the most stash space but generally have the least.

The only good race pace is suicide pace, and today looks like a good day to die
I've seen a large anecdotal increase in liches, looks like the challenge will be possible now

I go with rare boots and belt for maximum cooldown reduction then I start laughing maniacally as I put out 6m damage worth out of balls before the fight starts and my character frantically teleports all over the place uncontrollably.

I don't understand the connection between rare boots/belt and maximum cooldown reduction. Also what the heck is cooldown reduction in this game?

It's a mod that can appear on shaper(?) or elder boots/belts.

Cooldown reduction is exactly what it sounds like, but also has the added boost of reducing internal cooldowns on things like Cast on Critical Strike or other triggered skills like Mjolnir or Poet's Pens.

Oh, I don't think I've ever seen that before.

Where exactly is the cooldown recovery being put to use in a Desecrate/VD setup? Or is he on Poet's Pen and that's why it's useful.

I dump all my div cards and essences into the same tab and not having an auto-sort button is offensive.

In a regular Desecrate/VD setup it would be ok, I guess, because it would reduce the cooldown on Desecrate. But on pens it would be very good because it reduces the trigger time on them.

autosort is one of the things GGG has said they're pretty firmly against, since they want items to have weight and meaning and poo poo.


also it'd really lessen the value of the special stash tabs if you could just use any old quad tab with an autosort. :ssh:

I'm looking forward to next league since I will

1. have a premium stash tab to sell from, from the start
2. not be playing Gloomhaven every single night (we're nearing the end of the content, and have slowed a bit besides)
3. be playing like a madman to get some gaming in before kid #2 arrives

All of which means maybe I'll actually get some currency via this trading thing

next league i will tell myself im actually going to kill shaper and then get fed up and realize my build isnt that good about halfway through red maps

Next league I'm starting either SR Trickster or Spectre Necromancer. Probably SR Trickster because I started Spectre Necromancer this league. Depends on the Ascendency rebalance though.

Was kinda thinking about starting next league off by farming an oni-goroshi and using it for my first build. Would be cool to have a 6 link that early and dealing with the degen while leveling could be a fun challenge.

It would be nice if you could at least upgrade premium tabs to quad tabs like you can upgrade normal tabs to premium tabs.

Yeah but in the time you spend in the twilight strand you could get a character to the blood aquaducts and farm up a tabula.

Tabula doesn’t come stapled to a sword that’s better than Starforge, though.

Sure, but choosing to go full anime because you want a fast 6-link is a dumb reason to do it, since it's probably one of the slower, more boring ways to get a fast 6-link.

Weeaboo sword works well. Doing a flicker build and it's the first time I get to down all guardians. Now that I know them a bit better I can do them deathless too. Going to try shaper next, but the sword is good. What I do is use flicker for mapping, and switch to another identical Oni sword with Blade Flurry for bosses.
