Sorry friends I don’t do build guides for how to beat the campaign. That’s your problem.

I leveled with a widowhail, hyrri’s quiver, and rain of arrows using a full set of twink gear. Then at 62 I put on a tulfall and destroyed everything till 70 and put all my gear and gems on.

Currently at 92 on the jugg, in the next 3 levels I should pick up another 100% crit multi. Still using flasks from level 40 and a small mana potion I’ve literally never taken off since character creation. Build should be fully fleshed out in a day or so. It’s real good for t16 alch-n-go with some modest juice.

Been loving around with this and it's been fun, not a huge fan of the two button play style but god daum it just nukes poo poo from orbit.

Was loving around with Worb and I think it could work again, damage definitely seemed there with only changing the gems. Build is good, only odd thing to me is the boots don't cause the charge icons to appear in the top left, so there was a couple times I was like is this poo poo really working? *Takes off boots* yup sure is.

Because it would be very abuseable for combat and they've already taken u-turns on previous poe2 promises

For some reason this moves at a pace only slightly faster than the normal text crawl. But I’m also very picky about reading speed (basically if it isn’t instant I am too impatient), so this could easily be a me thing.

Make pauses available in parties like DOTA2 so people can get into pause wars during trades in people's hideouts.

Right? Like how happy would they be when every hardcore streamer is pausing and inspecting every rare mob at the start of every encounter and then pausing repeatedly in boss fights to assess the situation and adjust their mouse position and all that

Probably mobile, yeah. It's the "GGG" flair.

Although I'd note, that reddit is giving me a completely different UI now than it was this morning. Dunno if that has anything to do with anything.

-Should I be identifying things that I know I'm going to sell, or does it not matter? I haven't been, unless it's something that I feel might be outdated and in need of replacement.

By act 4 you should be finding enough rare items that it's not worth your time to pick up any unless they might be an upgrade for you (and of course you have to ID those to know if they're actually upgrades). Although, R-G-B linked items vendor for a chromatic orb, so pick those up too (your loot filter should highlight those)

How does the "projectiles have a chance to chain when they hit terrain" tincture work with splitting steel/returning projectiles setup? I find myself having trouble getting my Long Shot bonus in maps with tight corridors and I can't tell if that would help or if it would make any difference

The Wiki says you can't have returning and chain, and returning takes priority.

I only know this because I wondered the exact same thing for the same reason.

EDIT: Wait apparently I read it wrong the first time and it can do both? I have no idea how this game works.

Yeah, you read that wrong. Return has the lowest priority (Split > Pierce > Fork > Chain > Return). In gofer's case, presumably the projectile hasn't hit it's distance limit when it hits the terrain, so it will then (maybe) chain. Afterwards, if the projectile doesn't expire and hits its distance limit, then it will return while piercing through all enemies.

Yeah it says return is last priority, but the projectiles are still definitely returning. I'm giving it a shot but honestly can't tell if it's helping or if it's all in my head lol

Couple hideout MTX related questions,

Is the timer I see on people's map device from a loot box? I tried searching for it in the shop and didn't see anything.

I once had someone change their hideout seemingly in realtime while I was inside it. Seemed like he interacted with a scourge looking doodad and the hide out went from normal to evil looking and then back to normal. Any ideas what the heck this was?

The scourge one was from last year's core supporter pack and is presumably gone, never to return. Basically lets you have 2 swappable hideouts, a normal version and scourge version.

The time keeper map device is from the Ancestor Mystery Box, so you gotta wait a bit for it to hit the shop.

That's too bad. I really liked the scourge swapping tech.
I should probably just set a timer up on my phone instead of shelling out money for a widget

You may not be at the level (in your "skill" at playing poe, not character level) where you need to be rolling maps en masse but it is how you should eventually be rolling your maps. Go to poe.re, set up a regex for mods you can't/don't want to run, and save that in the awakened poe overlay. Then roll a ton of maps at once with that regex and never suffer this problem again.

A little tutorial here

Thank you. I don't know what most of the verbs in that post mean but I'll keep it bookmarked.

What do people normally do for flasks? Because I just currently have a mana flask i don't need since i cast from ES now, a quicksilver and i think a phasing flask i never actually remember to hit.

You can mostly automate utility flasks using Instilling Orbs (or more accurately using the bench craft recipe that uses those) to do things like "use when charges reach full" so they're constantly being used while mapping. You should do this.

Most of the time I like to run a Panicked life flask with corrupted blood/bleed removal and 4 utility flasks, usually a quicksilver, either a jade or granite depending on character, a silver, and a flex slot depending on what I'm running. Some unique flasks are also very good and surprisingly cheap, again depending on your character.
