path of exile's experience graph is logarithmic, as in "levels 1-90 are as much total experience as levels 91-100". and in addition there's penalties for wildly outleveling the content you're doing that you eventually cannot avoid if you're pushing to 100. either way grats on 90 on the PS5 duder

I could grind to 93-95 farming betrayal if I really wanted to I guess. It didn’t take me a ton of time today to get a couple xp bars (I lost all of it lol) but I’m running corrupted red maps for the first time and sometimes I just get instantly killed so I’m not worrying about xp for the moment. I’m torn between farming for gear I want or bumping up the difficulty to make better gear drops more probable - I opted for the latter

Beats me but they can and do ban people for using macros apparently.

It’s probably something like this and even if you could program your controller to stagger button presses slightly, unless the inputs are randomized, you’d probably get caught sooner or later. I don’t really want to pay $200 for a macro controller anyway.

Fuckin’ crazy that they will ban your account over binding 3 inputs to one though. Man, that would have ruined my D2 hammerdin

Not me. I just took a running start and plowed into it full speed leading with the crown of my skull. It’s funny though because the more you play, the more questions you ask which leads you to all those 3rd party sites you mentioned. I’m now able to make money trading, killed Catarina on my first attempt and since the game was free I spent like $10 to have a dog who follows me everywhere

I have yet to join the discord and tbh it wouldn’t do me any good anyway because I’m on PS5.

I suppose the nice part about the game’s lovely economy is I get almost twice what people on PC pay for the Catarina stuff I farm.

I preferred the console controls for PoE. Also I played all the way through the story just putting points into whatever felt right. The game is way more chill if you aren't trying to be good enough for the endgame of doing randomly generated challenge maps forever.

i don't think looking back at a goldmined thread and going "actually, this was weird in retrospect and maybe we shouldn't be encouraging this anymore" is bad. "going after" is even kind of misleading, it's not like anyone got punished for stuff from a long time ago. an old thread got un-goldmined. not a huge deal.

i dont really care what made applewhite horny but he kept posting weird poo poo making people uncomfortable and treating others like fetish objects and was writing and posting fetish material that can be considered transphobic. the dragon dicks and boob thread showed he had not moved on or changed from this behavior and he was punished for it

If the dude hadn't been posting dragon dong adjacent things for ten years and instead had outgrown it and begun posting normally he probably would not have been banned

But instead it's been a decade of horny CYOA
