Why? Ele Focus is more damage. I mean if you really need the End charges I guess.

For endu charges. If you take that ascendency node.

42% increased fire damage at 7 end. Which is less than a more damage I know.

I see... since i only got 5 sockets in my ngamu (dont have the orbs to try for 6 yet) ill stay with charges for now (no elem. focus).

Whats the verdict on Bronns?

More DPS, more AoE, less health. take your pick of tradeoffs.

See what your damage looks like with some suboptimal cyclone links, but honestly the meatballs do most of the boss dps, and more spinning means more meatballs.

E2: an actual POB bug???

Quote from a few pages back but I just want to state just how fantastic of a job Openarl does with POB. He's the guy that's been maintaining it. I was online when Insurrectionist was having this problem with Hypothermia, and he, myself, and a couple other goons were able to deduce that the latest update was causing the problem. Right after figuring this out, I let him know about the bug and he said he would take a look.

36 hours later...



I wanted to make sure I highlighted the Patreon button (usually located at the bottom left), because if you're blessed enough to have some disposable income, this guy seriously deserves it! He does an awesome job and POB easily is the best offline video game tool I've ever had the pleasure of using.

Just in case someone was wondering, I am NOT Openarl

Keeping up with tradition, a Wander every league, this time it's going to be something a little different, a CI Trickster. As good as Pathfinders are, I've been dying for something different. I've also wanted to get back to the old Wandin' glory days, where it was either CI or lowlife.

Anyway, here's the tree: http://poeurl.com/bQIv

Not totally finalized, but the changes I'd make are really small. For example, Fury Bolts and Art of the Gladiator instead of Forces of Nature. Or just heading straight down from Ghost Reaver for the power charge and socket. Anyway, should be fun.

I was gonna try CI as you can now get 50+ es on hit with discipline watcher's eye (30) and one of the spider items (20), and I think ES recovery affects es on hit, not sure tho, don't know if anyone has tried it really, but you can maybe get up to like 100+ ES on hit and skip leech all together which is a poo poo ton of nodes you get to free up.

Was gonna try it but people had the most insane delusions about watcher's eye prices at the league start so I never got around to it.

ES recovery does effect es on hit, and if you go nuts you can stack up to 210% for 155 es on hit. That is a double ES watchers eye though, so that wont be cheap.

I went with Ramako and Hinekora for my chieftain ngamahu, I dunno why you'd bother taking tukohama at all. Herald of ash gives you plenty of ignites to get charges without needing to do any crazy poo poo with ignite gems or special uniques.

3 color crafts are for forcing off colors on your 6 link. 3 and 4 links are almost always better off just chrome spamming.

For difficult coloring jobs it's usually better to use jewellers via the vorici trick. Do these recipes at vorici's bench:

Two sockets.
Two colors that you want.
Three sockets. If the third socket is the color you want, great. If not, do the two socket recipe again, and then do the three socket recipe again to reroll the third socket as many times as it takes. The trick here is that using vorici's bench for the socket recipes won't reroll the sockets that already exist.

If you need to offcolor more sockets, you can keep going with this. 4 socket, 3 socket, 4 socket bench recipe until you get a 4th socket, and so on.

I just bought the King's Path last night for 135c for this thing.

My build will have 9-10 endurance charges, this is 4% life per second regen from a single ring.
It's also going to include a Nebuloch so it's literally all about endurance charges, being on fire and regenning to not die from being on fire.

Crabjugg has been a lot of fun so far even before the crabs.

I need a second Kaom's Way, but I am going nuts trying to fit in stats and resists in just neck/belt/gloves, so I may have to go with a resist ring instead.

IT IS SAID THE TEARS OF THE BWEENIX CAN HEAL ALL WOUNDS




Okay so if you remember me asking about what to get next in heavy strike juggs

I found a belly of the beast and another exalt and have kept selling poo poo, and I'm now up to 4ex 100c

This is definitely enough to buy a starforge, but not enough to buy a 6L starforge, and I'd have to sell ex at 72c each which is probably worth doing but :timingthemarket:

Should I just bite the bullet, sell three ex, buy a starforge, and maybe a jeweler's touch to 5L it? I'm consistently running yellow maps and wrecking them, and can beat uber lab reasonably well but not for full keys. Need more life and more damage, weirdly enough.

if someone's asking for a price in flat ex you can offer 4 ex and the rest in chaos and see if they take it

Buy the starforge, 6S it, and then start throwing fuses at it until you get it to 5L.

Then start saving up your fuses, and when you get a big chunk, start spamming them. Once you get to around 100 fuses or so, stop fusing once you 5L it back.

repeat forever until you get your 6L.

Generally as a rule I offer up to / will take 75% in the preferred listed currency. Most people don't have a problem with it, and I'm not going to make someone play gently caress-gently caress games with poe.trade just to give me exactly what I asked for, so long as the vast majority is in the correct currency.

I just hope we never go to Legacy levels of chaos inflation when it's 120:1ex and the hard cap is basically 600c because that's all you can put in the trade window, and nobody is taking exalts.

For transactions like that most people will take ex using the current rate, which is about 1 ex to 72 chaos. So 315c would be 4ex 27c. I guess you might find the occasional person who won't, but the majority are fine with it. Honestly, most people just want to move their items.

I also suggest not gambling with fuses. I've found it only leads to sadness. If your bankroll is vast then go for it, but if throwing 10ex of fuses down the drain and not getting a 6L would ruin you, then don't do it.

Honestly, I turn most of my jewelers and fuses into chaos or exalts. Probably do another straight jeweler to ex trade today.
