Just got back into this. I used Night's Hold with Flame Totem socketed for leveling, was beyond level 30 before Bladefall got ahead of it in DPS. Can I get a clan invite for "Jawnza"? My status message is something about killing santa, so maybe ~8 purges ago?

I sold my first high price item! Divination Distillate, went for 1 ex -15c. Perfect IIR, lowest IIQ. I haven't had more than 10c liquid. Now I have an exalted and need to trade it for chaos.

soscannonballs posted:You just have to suck it up and drop some currency on gear with high ES. I see you are using Lightning Coil so you are really going to have to push ES with your shield/helm/gloves. Is ES significantly more expensive than the other defensive options? I have a 78 Bladefall witch with 3.6k ES. I'm getting into the 20c per upgrade range and it looks like filtering on ES just explodes the price.

Ekster posted:If you want top end ES gear it's going to cost you a lot, but if you go for decent ES it isn't too bad in my experience. And I was, inelegantly, trying to ask if I switch over to a build that relies on evasion or armor if the same actual tankiness for the same cost? As in other games had defensive stats that involved massively different calculations so certain classes or defensive schemes weren't really able to hit the same total EHP.

I've been slowly leveling a Marauder/Berzerker, just hit 60. I was using Sunder to level, trying to make the switch over to Cyclone now. I think I'm doing something wrong tactically because Cyclone's duty cycle is a fraction of Sunder. Maybe I'm just lazy and want the simplicity of holding a button that auto-targets bosses, but Cyclone spends a lot of time spinning off where the enemy isn't. Am I supposed to be spamming clicks instead of holding the button and waggling the mouse? Also, bumped a couple tabs up to premium, trading is amazing now. My price model is still a couple leagues old, like i thought alch:chaos was 2:1 instead of 4:1.

One of the weekend patches claimed to fix the un-openable chest problem. I haven't seen it in the past few nights. I have a T5ish capable Cyclone Marauder/Berzerker here: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/JawnV/characters Not sure where to go. It's fine for zoning out and chewing through Lake runs, but whenever I'm partied with folks it feels like my clear speed is just dragging the group down. Survivability's decent, damage is ok when I can actually get to an enemy. My next few passives are going to the Life cluster near Scion. Any advice?

Cinara posted:Try Earthquake. 2h RT Cyclone isn't as hot anymore, Earthquake can use the same everything you're doing right now but should work out to a lot more damage. You essentially have 1 damage gem linked to your Cyclone in your "5link", with Inc AoE, Fortify and Blood Magic, Melee Phys is the only one directly adding damage. Cyclone with it's high mana cost forces you into running Blood Magic as a link. I was following this guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1302337 . Is there a recommended thread for EQ builds? Cinara posted:Earthquake, especially if you can 5link that Marohi, will allow more damage links and you might even try dropping Fortify and just using it on a leap slam link. EQ can be more of a ranged skill so it's a bit safer. One last question, and it's probably my costliest mistake: Does anyone take the Savage Hit & leech nodes in Berzerker or is the 40% damage/10% damage taken the only correct choice?

bakka bakka posted:You should not be using Cyclone with a Marohi Erqi. Movement and attack speed are large parts of its DPS, Marohi fucks both of them. If you're going to stick with Cyclone, use Hezmana's bloodlust. Your gear is in desperate need of an upgrade. Your belt, left ring, amulet, and armor are hot garbage. 30 chaos should be enough to get some basic mapping gear. I'd also suggest dropping some of those jewel sockets for damage nodes that are much more efficient. Thanks! Love advice like this. Replaced the belt, got a Hezmana that I managed to 5l for a couple chaos, and my tooltip DPS is up to 27k from 15k. Earthquake was fun to mess around with, but cyclone's just so easy to zone out with. It's weird, earlier characters always had something more obviously wrong earlier. This one made it to capped resists, maps-ish dps, and decent mitigation. I was sailing through T1~3, higher ones were just a slog. I still have Too Much currency and Hot Garbage in a couple slots, but a much better idea of where to go. Cheers!

I'm replacing a ring & amulet and only "need" to get 7% cold resist between them. Are there any good uniques for a 2h Cyclone build for those slots? I was thinking that Essence Worm would let me squeeze another 25% aura. Otherwise, what else should I look for besides Life, Chaos%, WED%?

Holyshoot posted:And Cyclone tool tip dps is misleading like most tool tip dps in this game. But yes 6k does seem low. How so? I have a 5l Hezmana Cyclone setup that shows up as 35k, and a 4l Marohi with Earthquake that barely trips 10k. I'm sorta using EQ for clearing trash & cyclone for single-target, but I'm sure I'm doing something wrong.

Manyorcas posted:So in my slow, steady playing I've finally reached maps Every map so far I've found has been tier 1 though, and after a test run or two I'm still not finding anything higher. Should I just keep running tier 1 maps until I find better ones, stick with Dried Lake for a bit, or just trade for a decent few maps to skip a few rungs on the ladder (assuming high tier maps in turn drop more high tier maps). How are you rolling them? For t1, you should be transmuting then rolling Alts until it's +30% quality with mods you can handle. If you're feeling cheeky and/or flush with currency, alching lower tiers can get you quality in the 50-70% range and boost your pool. Although most folks recommend saving alchs for T9 or higher. To get an unid Museum, can I sell 5 id'd alch'd ones? This is part of my 'too many low maps' problem, so perhaps I should be looking up chisel recipes instead.

Yeah, I'm excited for the next league and will probably get to the point where my opinions on maps are mocked instead of midgame. I'm not going to push it for this league and suspect I'll hit the wall in cruel and just let the duelist die on the vine there. I got to see the currency tab without witnessing the awful mess my Standard stash must be in, so prophecy's been great. My original question is still unanswered despite the fonts of knowledge eager to delve into my time preferences, was it too stupid to deign to answer?

I've got a bladefall trapper at 60, pretty sure I'm going evasion/life. My tree (link) is right between the guide I'm following and the CI guide I gather is the one most folks follow, but the next ~10 points are committing to EV/life hard ground under scion to hit the life cluster. I've never been able to afford CI the few times I've had an appropriate build, when can I expect EV/life to crap out? Mid-maps?

I had a nice lucky streak. Found a blue evasion 5l for 1c listed for 2 minutes, scoured it, used the best +life essence I had and it rolled +life, +eva/%eva, +80 res total. It helped a little on dps, but Deerstalker was giving me a fake-5L for bladefall traps. Now I need new boots or some bonus trap skill.

I'm doing alright up through t7/t8 maps. 3.5k life, 5k EV. Crit maps are rough. I should buy proper endgame gear, but with maxed resists, life + eva on every slot I think I'm out of mitigation options besides something drastic like Lightning Coil? e: link How are prophecy chains supposed to work? I had the fellshire one, killed a bunch of bugs, never got a popup but it's gone from my (H) screen. Do I just keep buying new ones until II shows up or did I mess up completing the first?

I've got 100c, 5l LC runs 30~40 and I'd have to re-buy for other slots to get over the -60. It's not that I want one, just one of the few mitigation options I have at this point.

I still don't get how you're trying to mitigate damage coming in to hit that life. I'm guessing armor from your tree, like is that your long term goal or are you trying to keep CI open? Halfsies on mitigation doesn't help. The 14% Evasion gem roll sticks out too, I'm hoping that was an errant Regal instead of intentionally purchased.

I've got a scorching ray CWC WI tri-curse CI build at 77, have been following this guide. Genuinely feels like the strongest build I've ever put together. I'm used to limping/grouping to get through the end of a3m, but this time it just flew by like regular content. First time I've cleared merc lab as well. I think I'm more limited defensively. Sitting around 6k ES, just got my CWDT setups in place. My next passives are going down to grab Unwavering Stance, then jogging over to get another Brute Force Solution gem slot. Link, but I'm not as confused about gearing. I'm in the 10c/upgrade range, amulet is probably next because I've picked up enough strength to not need it. The CWC isn't in the guide I'm using. So I'm down 2 gem slots for that, have Scorching Ray linked with fire pen/LL/CWC. If I wanted to put in Conc Effect, would I be better off dropping Controlled Destruction, Spell Echo, or fire pen? CWC totally eliminated mana issues.

Thanks again! Huge boost from shuffling with this advice. I don't quite know how to account for dropping FP, but replacing FP/Spell Echo with ConcE/EF was a 150% boost to the ice storm tooltip (~1400 to ~3400). I burned a bunch of chrom to get the 1 red socket on the 2L, still have LL there but I'll try a few maps without it to see how it goes. Defensively, should I be figuring out a way to get Vaal Discipline? I already have 2 CWDT setups, wouldn't bee too bad to add a third.
