Well it was either this or "Hey, remember how PoE2 is going to have way more 6L skills? Surprise!" and the latter has a 0.0000000001% chance of actually happening, so...

It can be hard to do because she's squishier but you really don't want to deal with the totems; they're the hardest part of the fight IMO.

Agree people are being babies, but it's kind of nuts to speculate on whether anyone figured this out earlier in the league and just kept that poo poo to themselves. AFAIK there's no indication that the bug was only recently introduced or anything. Got to imagine somebody figured this out week 1 and got to have the best league of their lives while having enough restraint to not throw their 6-link Squire on trade. And if that's true, good for them honestly.

https://pobb.in/PBC2Hx0Kc-gw This is where my archmage ball lightning build is at, and im not sure where to go from here. I have a couple of options and each time i try to PoB them, they are fairly minor gains for whats starting to be pricey items. I figure I can upgrade: 1) Boots 2) Ring 3) Belt I eventually want to go eyes of the greatwolf with %attributes for my neck, but I dont have the raw strength and dex to make that viable just yet. I have about 40d to play with now. I still cant do the hinekora lock beast craft to really get my magic jewels going without spending stupid currency on them I could get a better adorned I guess. I just pinged 99 as well, so I have 2 skill points to play with as well. I could fill out my cluster a bit more which will get me some damage and resistance, but I dont think thats what im needing right now.

Any ideas for a bosser or something that can make use of awakened added cold damage? been thinking about an ice trapper, i also got a badge of the brotherhood and some other stuff but no idea what could be a fun build. So far ive been running an RF Chieftain and a holy relic guardian, but both have troubles blasting bosses (i failed on uber elder since i couldnt kill them before i was overwhelmed by stuff) and since im notoriously bad at maven something that kinda instaphases her would be nice. Does ice trap hold up? Any other ideas that arent necessarily ice trap or BotB, just anything really that is ssf- doable and melt bosses.

Eh, I'd say Poison SRS is a good all-arounder, not necessarily a bosser. A bosser would be more like something that can insta-phase Ubers but dies to a stiff breeze.

The absolute biggest thing I see here is your flasks. Three of your flask suffixes do nothing right now! You've got 3x ES leech flask suffixes, which doesn't work for two reasons: (1) you can't use the same flask suffix twice -- much less three times -- and (2) you're already at ES leech cap without flasks. So that's 3 suffixes to work with for more evasion/move speed/curse effect/whatever. Besides that, I would be saving for a Mageblood (you're halfway there!) and looking for a way to get chaos res capped without needing your belt -- boots are an obvious way to replace your belt's res but you're not quite there as-is. Also if you go MB you can use an ele res flask suffix and then replace at least 1 of your ele res jewel suffixes.

Alright, I think I've now actually pushed my Ice Nova Archmage build about as far as it can reasonably go: https://pobb.in/iTMWOJJ_FwmT Managed to crack 100M pinnacle DPS which was a big goal of mine. Also managed to get poison/bleed/stun/ailment immune and 90% crit "immune". The DPS could be pushed quite a bit further at the expense of defenses but without making that compromise the best improvements I can see are just slightly better magic jewels, marginally better wands, or a 200d Watcher's Eye. Gonna see how deep I can take this build in Delve, then probably start a new character when my friend comes back from vacation on the 9th.

Is there a way to clear harvest enchants off of your weapons? I was bored and fiddling around and added the attack speed harvest enchant since I didn't think the actual physical damage of my weapons came into play since I'm using splitting steel and not actually using melee. According to PoB, it does though so...how do I go about clearing off these enchants? I can't find a bench option for it. Doing some online searching someone said there's a "remove enchantment" option for 3 scours on one of the benches but I can't find it. Since both weapons are unique can I just scour them regularly? E: Apparently not. Hmm. This would be incredibly stupid if there's no way to remove it. Literally every other enchant in the game can be removed in one way or another.

goferchan posted:Just so you know for future reference the relevant tag that means the skill probably cares about your weapon is "Attack", not "Melee". Yeah I figured that out after I noticed the drastic DPS loss in PoB. Ok so is there a way to remove these enchantments or am I just done for this league? E: NM I found it. WHEW. Ok. For some reason "remove enchant" did not find it but "Remove enchantments" does. Regular bench, not harvest. Next question: How do I accurately calculate my DPS in PoB? With PSRS it was easy (just set max number of skulls on the screen, add wither etc) but I have no idea how to calculate splitting steel/nimis/pierce. Also the guy in my guide has "blade master" anointed on his amulet but looking at what that skill does, I'm not even sure how much of it I can use.. Blademaster is: 20% increased physical damage with swords (probably works) Sword attacks deal 20% increased damage with ailments (I don't use ailments so this is useless) 8% increase in attack speed with swords (probably works) +200 to accuracy rating with swords (you would THINK this works but PoB doesn't seem to think it makes a difference so idk) Frank Frank fucked around with this message at 03:20 on May 5, 2024 |

What's your chance to hit? If it's already 100% adding accuracy won't help your DPS, but it will help you with that whole "I need less than this much life otherwise it'll gently caress up Precise Technique" thing.

No I mean it's not moving the accuracy numbers of my weapons at all in PoB with or without the enchant and I'm not sure why. You would think it would add +200 to each weapon's accuracy, wouldn't it? Also apparently Precise Technique is disabled for my main hand r/n because I am now 3 hp over my accuracy lol. Probably just use one of those 5% accuracy tattoos to fix it but I'm confused because it wasn't like this yesterday. Ok I either tattooed over a dex node yesterday when I was reorganizing my passive tree or when I was optimizing gear rolls with blessed orbs/divines I lost a single dex point somehow putting me a whopping 3hp over my main hand's accuracy rating. E: hmm I’m 2 passive nodes away from a jewel slot. Potentially I could give up a couple life nodes and find some fun unique jewel to plug in there too.

I admit I'm pretty new to endgame PoE but what is up with these loving robots in specific heists that can one shot you I can have maxed resistances, max suppression, ~3000 health and 600 ES, and 12 levels on these rusty crushers but they have this quick energy blast which just loving one-shots me from full health The only other time that has happened to me is if I have hosed up and gotten surrounded by 30 dudes or I have badly misjudged a rare enemy or something

Meiteron posted:I admit I'm pretty new to endgame PoE but what is up with these loving robots in specific heists that can one shot you Those robots have 2 attacks: One is a fast beam that travels across the screen and doesn’t hurt all that bad. The second has a huge windup. They charge for a few seconds glowing red and then launch a huge slow moving ball that travels across the screen. Do not touch the ball. That one can absolutely one-shot you. Also 3k hp / 600ES is a little on the low side. Any idea what your EHP is? Anyway if you want to avoid the robots, just don’t take any heists in Tunnels or Repository. Looking at the wiki, they deal split damage between lightning and chaos. What does your chaos resist look like? Post your PoB?

To note about the slow moving laser ball attack in heist, it threw me off multiple times - it explodes at the end of its trajectory. The explosion graphic is very subtle but don't stand still just because it isn't quite aligned with you A lot of heist stuff is also pretty deadly with map mods, you can run your contracts white and still get the same number of markers (or grand heist reward cases), the mods on it only give you chest loot and less alarm raised

I'm off a lot from the eHP of the actual final build and the gems aren't exact but that's mostly from gear which can be improved; I'm not looking at pinnacles yet. It's not the slow attack that's getting me it's the very fast railgun thing where they just raise a hand, shoot a quick laser, and I fall over dead. It's very, very annoying. I was clearing out a level 74 quest heist and it still 1-tapped me.

That is extremely low from what I’ve seen but I don’t know your build well. That said, anything dealing big chaos damage like that beam will likely delete you.

I used to have less! Working on it, though. I guess it does come down to a chaos damage issue but I had hoped the high resist I've put together would mitigate that.

Since your main defence outside of resist/ehp is evasion, you should probably get some "phys. damage taken as X/Y" on there.

I'm off a lot from the eHP of the actual final build and the gems aren't exact but that's mostly from gear which can be improved; I'm not looking at pinnacles yet. A few things stand out here: - Your body armour is not great. Since you're suppression capped and res capped, your body armour effectively has one suffix, which is +4% to Lightning Res (crafted). What it doesn't have is Max Life, and your body armour is one of the best places to get that stat. - Your gloves AND boots AND helmet also don't have Life. (!!!!!) - Your flasks mostly don't have real suffixes or are badly rolled. You're using a hybrid flask in addition to a life flask, so you're down one whole utility flask and like 2 suffixes. You need evasion as a flask suffix for sure. 100 alts would give you multiple upgrades here. Also quality 20 (before rolling them) for more duration. - Several of your jewels aren't pulling their weight. Your abyss jewel effectively has 1 mod and it's not the most important mod (+max life). The most important stats to get on your jewels are Life and (Chaos) Damage over Time Multiplier. Increased Damage over Time is comparatively not good. E: AAAHHH and rings! Your rings also don't have Life! There's no Life on any of your gear besides your quiver and your belt! It's the most important defensive stat!

Also if you don't have life on your chest you should swap the "+50 maximum life" mastery for "+15% maximum life if there are no life modifiers on equipped body armor"

For a while on my last character I was using awakened elemental damage on attacks to get reflect immunity and forgot that only applied to my primary linked ability. so on B2B reflect maps I would try to leap slam into a pack and immediately splat. Took me a little bit of frustration to figure that one out.

The greatest loss felt from the removal of sextants was the ability to easily negate reflect, a mod that probably doesn't need to exist in the game, no equipping a cheap that which was taken to become reflect immune either for a map or atziri fight.

With my current damage (no idea what it is but it’s likely decently high) I can manage Uber atziri if I’m very careful during the phase where she splits into 4 copies. Because of the way ss works and since nimis makes it impossible to aim, it’s entirely possible for one bad attack to deal too much damage and just instantly kill me if it hits too many monsters. Can anyone help me configure PoB for damage so I can actually figure out what my DPS actually is? With PSRS it wasn’t bad because you just configure SRS to the number of active spirits, throw in wither etc. I have no idea to account for fury valve, nimis and pierce
