If you have a mod or a passive skill that gives X% Physical Attack Damage Leeched as Life, and you use a skill like Glacial Hammer that converts 50% Physical damage to Cold, does that mean you lose 50% of the leech that you would otherwise get? Or does it calculate the leech on the Physical damage before it gets converted?

AFAIK, Leech is only based on the actual damage you deal; so, it's post conversion, armor reduction, etc.

Really? I find act 3 the biggest drag

Act 3 got shortened enough that I dont mind it, the vaal sections of 2, the Kaom section of act 4, and Malachi boss fight are probably the worst parts of the game atm

I missed the notice as well, but was lucky enough to be online.

We should do a better job of advertising a purge outside of the GMOTD- does it even display anywhere besides the guild window? If so, I've never seen it.

No, but that's the point - people who actually log in see it. I don't generally announce them in the thread or anything.

That said, a purge happened, there's room in the guild again, apply same as always.

Hi I was in New Jersey please calm down folks.

Invites via thread post are always spotty, asking in IRC or via PM is the sure way to go.

Don't be goobers in guild chat.

How do you avoid gibbing yourself on reflect mobs?

Armor, dodge%, capped resists, and don't just YOLO reflect packs? It's easier to not die to reflect than it ever has been.

Mince Pieface posted:

I think the drop rates are always the same base, you just are way more likely to see one in merc/maps because of the larger pack sizes and increased item quantity

IQ doesn't affect currency. Currency drop rates are static, and are adjusted by level range relative to your character in the same way XP is. If an exalt has (making this number up) a 1:100 chance to drop, then in a 100% XP zone it will drop 1:100 kills. If you're in a 97% xp zone, it will have a (1/100)*(0.97) drop rate, or about 1:103.

Basically the best way to get currency is to fight stuff your own level. All this said, the larger pack sizes at higher difficulties, or as a modifier on maps, obviously have an affect because you're getting more shots at a drop.

Hello Friends,

As there is now the ability to see time since last logon to guild, I am doing ad-hoc purges. You're fair game if you've been offline for 1 month according to the game, so if you're actually playing you'll be fine. If it turns out we fill again and there's no 1+ month offline people, I guess the guild is Actually Full for that duration.

Basically it's time to start petitioning GGG to add some more guild slots is what I'm saying.

Honestly league is probably dead, I would know since I quit 2 weeks in, and since standard sucks there is basically no reason to do anything other than what Jusupov says.

This is the first league I've had to kick people every two weeks since the start just to keep up room for all the new players v0v

Hi. I have recently discovered the Trade Macro. Are there any other, non-hack, quality-of-life improvements? E.g. Something that would tell me if rolls were high, etc., so I don't have to manually look them up?

Trade macro does this. Ctrl c gives rolls and ranges, ctrl D gives prices.

Is there a build that's known to be particularly fast at farming ~T10-T14 maps, while also being cheap to gear out (talking about sub-50 chaos, preferably as cheap as possible).

For this character, I don't care how boring/gimmicky it is nor about clearing endgame bosses. I'm just looking for a fast farming for those map tiers while being cheap to get going.

Pizza totems is pretty much the way to go for that.

My one goal for the league is complete, and now I am poor again. Trying to decide between Ngamahu's and HoWA for the build I want to play with it. Played both last league and enjoyed them both, HoWA is better especially against the end game content, but Ngahamu's is way more relaxing to play.

I feel so far away from mine. I'm 3/8 Doctor and have like 1ex, but I know the answer is just "keep playing".

How the gently caress does one do this?
Is trade/Guild Stash gonna be allowed or do these races also count as self-found?

I would actually be shocked if anyone can do this. I think the current record in 5h BLAMT races was Western Forest or something hilariously low level like that.

To update my previous post, there was previously another 24h Malachai kill race

https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1464003

13 people managed to do it. So, good news, if you kill him you will 100% get both microtransactions and a key!

Helmann has a video of his flame totems marauder

Apparently that time there was an Arcanist's box very early on (fixed seed) that people farmed to chaos spam gear.
