queeb posted:is arc totem heiro still capable of all endgame poo poo (uber elder etc) with the loss of the one totem? i guess you could add the +2 totem support but that's a 20% less mod on top of the spell totem less. Going from 3 to 5 totems and losing 20% damage is still 33% more damage. Depending on the totem that may be about as good as other damage supports. It will result in a slower ramp up though, since you'd have to cast 3 times to get all the totems out instead of just twice.

StashAugustine posted:Running an SRS build and it feels pretty good when it works (if a bit squishy but otoh my gear sucks). My two issues are that mana is huge (I am reserving a huge amount though) and that it feels kind of awkward having to start and stop all the time. Anything that can mitigate these issues?

If you want to play shattering steel, do something else until you can equip a terminus est and haemophilia

Maybe I should have looked up what It That Fled's reward meant before doing this safehouse; I now have two 'upgrade a breachstone' benches and zero breachstones to use them on, and even lovely breachstones cost more currency than I have  What I'm saying is, if someone has a breachstone and wants a free upgrade, I'm gonna hang around in the instance for a half hour or so, so just send me an invite - I'm Ayndin in game as well.

I was sick this weekend so I called out of work and spent all day playing my Necromancer - things are starting to fall into place. Did my Lab, bought 4-linked Bones of Ullr for 2 alcs, switched over to Shield Charge, and got all the gems I'll need. Had a nice 5-socket chest drop, spammed a bunch of Fusings on it but couldn't 5-link it yet. Running 3 Spectres and 9 Zombies, not using Skeletons due to lack of slots. Capped my resists, and didn't die at all today (some close calls though) and don't think I lost a Spectre or Zombie at all. Bosses just melt. Had a Safehouse chest drop 5 Chaos, which was a nice bonus! Going rates currently on a 6 socket Vis Mortis is 15-20 Chaos, so still saving up. Will try to link it myself, though possibly stupid. Will finish Act 6 tomorrow and hopefully be in maps before the weekend.

Quality and 6 socket the chest before you try linking it. E. And don't try to link a random 5s chest that dropped

I played a spectre/skelemancer for a few leagues, and the cheapest and easiest way to ramp up your damage is to buy the cheapest Vis Mortis you can find, then buy the Jeweller's Touch prophecy - this instantly 5-links any body armor for just 1 Jeweller's orb. I bought my prophecy for ~20 chaos at the start of the league, and a 6 link really isn't necessary.

Between atlas objectives, syndicate stuff, atzoatls, and delves, there is just so much content to do now. So much stuff can spawn in maps, I'm seeing some pretty ridiculous situations on a regular basis. I can't wait to see what types of absurd items people will be crafting now. Such a great patch.

Is there any way to make it not play the dinging noise when a poo poo ring drops? I assumed the loot filter would do that since it doesn't highlight them, but it still makes a dumb noise.

Randomly decided to play an arc-miner as my league starter. First time ever playing a shadow, and first time doing mines. So far traps feel fairly powerful (I'm only level 12 - using explosive trap until I get arc) but the playstyle feels pretty clunky. Hoping that when I switch to arc & mine and a 4-link it will feel a lot better. Initial 4-link to be Arc - Remote Mine - Minefield - Added Lightning. I'm following this guide - https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2249948 Hope that guide isn't terrible, since I did exactly 0 research on this!

Any idea if a corrupted 6-link with 70ish life and one 30%ish resist is gonna be worth more than the divine I'd get for vendoring it?

On the GC miner at least, getting the full mine/trap tree is a huge QOL thing. My character feels much less clunky placing and firing the mines. (Now if I could ever get around to actually using GC mines....)

God I have no idea how the any of the high end bestiary works. Seeing as how expensive some of the farrul stuff is I'm going to assume that beast is a dick

the gateway beast for him is super rare, only spawning in like t13+ maps and his chest piece is really good. at least thats how it was in bestiary. he could be more common now i guess.

You'll feel clunky until you get insta-detonate from the Volatile Mines wheel,, but after that it's smooth sailing. Go Pyro -> Born in Shadows for your first labs; Pyro gives sustain, and Born has an insanely cool defensive layer in the blind aura

So I did one of the Vaal Apex map things with the 4 fragments and breezed all the way to the last fight and then got repeatedly oneshot by the big ground circles they spawn, I still made it to the last phase but ran out of portals. Maybe it’s time to get a movement skill since I’ve just been pounding quicksilvers and that wasn’t working so well there.Captain Foo posted:is there ever a reason to take the option that clears all rivalries? The alternative is usually losing a rank on the dude so I tend to pick the rivalry removal if I’m close to unlocking a safe house and don’t think I’ll be able to rank him up again in time.
