So another start-of-league question: I can generally get into maps by the end of the first day and have an ex or two after a day and a half (either by trading or sheer blind luck). However after that point I always slow right down and then spend two weeks slowly clambering my way up the map tiers to reds, whilst hoarding my currency and muttering "my precious" to myself about it. Last league in particular I *ingeniously* changed all my early chaos into ex which then went up in value and which I never actually spent or used for anything. Clearly a mastermind. What do people who are good/wise do with their currency early on if it is not required for build based gear? Buy the next tier of maps or go to tier 9? Start pouring chaos into the map device?

I respect and play all maps equally, torture chamber and strand alike.

The worst part of Atlas reshuffling each league is that the Atlas background doesn't match with the map locations in it anymore!

The best part of the Atlas art work is that stupid hat

RossCo posted:So another start-of-league question: Same. Last league the BiS Ax for my build was an Atziri's Disfavored 6-Link. Price started off at like 4ex week one but petered down to 1 ex in the next 2 weeks. But that isn't the question. I dunno man, convert your currency into either gear for a second character or gear for your current. Buying a stack of maps is p great but I wouldn't buy more than 2 sessions worth of maps at a time. Also money is meaningless on the path.

Start pouring chaos into the map device? I'm not particularly good or wise, but assuming your gear and build can cut it I'd always prioritise buying higher tier maps for atlas completion. I usually don't start spending chaos on the map device until I can sustain red maps, and even then I only really bother juicing up my highest tier maps. To be honest though, the 'optimal' method for using currency in trade leagues is probably flipping items for profit, but at that point you're playing market simulator rather than the actual game.

I don't think I ever take anything but Fortune Favours unless I'm trying to get a challenge. Doubly so now that FFTB looks to be EV positive. E: this assumes, of course, that each option is ev positive to begin with E2: and a bunch of other assumptions. Preemptively gently caress off pedants!

My starter ideas keep changing, as usual. Now debating between Frost Blades 2x Touch of Anguish Berzerker with blitz and triple rage, or ED+Contagion Trickster because I haven't played that class or skill combo in a long time and it was probably the smoothest, cheapest league start I've ever had (and it's only gotten massive buffs since then). Maybe this is the league where I finally do a shaped Burial Chambers atlas and try to farm a HH.

Elder is an interesting thing to be able to put onto any map, but 15c is just a smidgeon steep for my blood.

Fwiw it doesn't make the map elder influenced, it makes the map a tier 16 map. I agree that it's generally not worth it still, but it's nice when you forget about the daily reset and Niko spawn on an 8.

I regret to inform you that, in a nod to the heavily referenced Mayan culture, this is being released on Etznab (Mayan "Friday") which is 19 days after the start of the week

Wow, big Multistrike nerfs. That’s a huge blow to builds like multistrike molten strike, probably flicker as well...

I agree that it's generally not worth it still, but it's nice when you forget about the daily reset and Niko spawn on an 8. That makes a lot more sense than what I pictured. That also means that the really stupid, non-Desecratable monsters can be forced to spawn in a high-tier map. My dream of Shaggy Monstrosites is probably for naught but people who want those stupid Reliquarians are in luck.

If you were planning to run Bane, Soulrend, HoAg, Winter Orb, Storm Brand, or Multistrike, and are expecting to be insanely OP, think again.

Trickster, Occultist, and CI/ES builds in general took a big hit this league.

TL;DR version: We aren't sure if our changes are enough to make melee good, so just to be safe we're nerfing everything else.
