So with sentinels do you all typically pop it and run around gathering up mobs until it runs out before engaging so you don't waste charges or fight as you go? I've been doing the first method but at the beginning of Act 6 that means I die a lot more. I know I need to up my resist gear a lot but until then I'm pretty squishy. Using this build because I like how it works: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3229740

I'd been ignoring the ability to buy tabs because I didn't realize I had enough currency to buy several already and gently caress are the currency, flask and gem tabs nice after dealing with the basic tabs.

So I'm running a fire berserker spectral helix build (this one: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3229740) and it's a lot of fun but I just discovered the "fun" of maps with elemental damage reflection. I'm level 72/3 right now with maxed resists (except chaos) and my damage goes up to 40k+ and any sized pack just causes me to insta-gib myself. Avatar of Fire my rear end, gently caress those maps.

Seems extremely weird the amount of work they put into the trade website instead of just building a game currency AH directly into the game (or allowing the website to handle the transactions completely).

Man I thought the crafting costs of a few guaranteed color sockets was too high until I blew through literally all 250 of my chromatic orbs then another 30 I bought and couldn't get 3 red on a 4 socket piece. Probably should've done the math.

Like Wanderlust, Goldrim, etc. Is it equal weighting for each color, or is it slightly weighted based on the defense type? poemdexter posted:Definitely weighted by the defense type. ES is blue, Armor is red, Evasion is green. Holy poo poo, I did not know any of this. e: I thought it was just equal odds of every color for every socket.

Nothing like trying out and loving up a new build to make you appreciate your old build more. Sunk 10+ hours into a LS Champ and did the crit/claw swap from Spectral Helix too early with not enough crit and ugh it suuuuucks compared to my Spectral Helix berserker.

Thinking of getting back into the game soonish:tm: now that my net is better and I don't rubberband constantly, but would not like my incredibly slow plodding rear end to start up again when it's close to switchero time. Use flame dash with cast on hit support to get back some of that rubber banding goodness.

Is Awakened Trade still the way to go to get trade prices in game? Tired of tabbing out to search if the unique I found is worth anything or garabage. Spoiler, they're always garbage.

whypick1 posted:Yes. I'm using the default semi-strict filterblade config right now. I have a unique tab to put this poo poo in and I don't mind collecting the poo poo but of course you can only have one of a given unique in that tab so I also have 2 regular tabs full of duplicate uniques. Probably should upgrade that to strict and/or customize it.

I just now realized unveiling items gives you crafting recipes, I'd been ignoring them this whole time. Also missed the eater of worlds and searing exarch mods for my gear.  Too many loving systems.

My guy is 90 and I've only spent maybe 3-4ex worth (well 2ex and maybe 300c) on gear so I still had gloves, chest and head with no implicits. Oni Goroshi spectral helix berserker is pretty cheap and fun. I am wearing two tone boots that I didn't modify of course, though I've got enough resists now it probably would be fine if I replaced the implicit resists.

Leveling in the 90s sucks balls. I can either have fun and use sentinels and play challenging content and get loot OR I can play safe and grind out a level, not both. Delve seems the fastest and easiest way to grind out a level with low risk but I'm bored to tears with it, having done that to get to 90.

Here's my char: https://poe.ninja/pob/CP9 / https://pastebin.com/eAxcv4Vi I'm currently way over capped on basic resists but next level I'll switch out that gem on the right to Thread of Hope, which is is -14% to all resists. This is the build I'm working towards: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3229740 the Oni Goroshi version: https://pastebin.com/cqVqujQ5 I'm broke as poo poo, probably have a decent amount I could sell but sitting on 0 exalt and ~40c right now as I spent what I had to get where I am. e: and I realize some of my implicits suck, I'm out of the necessary items to reroll for now e2: and no this is not me asking for money, just saying to keep that in mind for suggestions please RandomBlue fucked around with this message at 01:33 on Jul 25, 2022 |

I guess I should see if I can find some cheap improvements through trade.

I absolutely hate them gating ascendency skills with the lab, the lab sucks balls and I hate it. One of the things I like about this game is I can jump in and play a map in 10-15 minutes and be done and if something interrupts me it's not a huge deal. The lab is the exact opposite of that and I don't find the gauntlet of traps to be fun at all. Anyway, just wanted to bitch about it, I'll probably just pay for a carry so I can get the points.

whypick1 posted:I realize most of this thread is in the 3 or 4 digits worth of hours in this game so we haven't been a truly new player in a long long time, but Lab really should not take more than 15 minutes as long as you haven't completely scuffed your character (assuming Izaro doesn't kill you and you have to start over again). I'll try some different setups for better regen. Currently my regen is mostly leech based which means I get hosed in trap sections with few or no mobs. I had no problems in the first 3 levels but uber lab has been a PITA for me.

I'm in Act 8 and have barely a stack of wisdom scrolls and maybe 3 stacks of portal scrolls. Usually I'm swimming in that poo poo by now and the other currencies are worse. I think I have like 2 alch orbs and I've used all my fusings just 4 linking a few pieces of gear.

Deki posted:I can't tell if it's just because I did a bunch of lakes while levelling or what but I crossed the finish line with like 20 alchs and that's with spending a bunch on trying to roll minion wands/shields when I ran out of Minion essences. I've done every lake available while levelling and still have poo poo for currency. I do have a decent amount of essences though. Though usually there's 1 out of the 3 essence mobs that either insta gibs me or is basically unkillable.

Seems like they put zero thought into how nerfing overall drop rates would impact currency (and selling gear for currency) and map drop rates and just focused on "well what if less but higher quality gear". Opening tough strong boxes that drop all white and blue poo poo sure doesn't feel like higher quality though.

Deki posted:Here's my ideal set of immediate fixes: Launching on a Friday then peacing out for the weekend is kinda poo poo. Launch earlier in the week, so you're available when poo poo is all hosed up without having to force weekend/overtime work. This is basic poo poo. Agree with pretty much all your points except the minion stuff, I have no opinion on that since I haven't played a minion build but it sounds like others would agree with it.

Herstory Begins Now posted:Fundamentally it's a question of how many hours of free time to acquire one 'progress unit' or whatever and there is a rate that is too low for people to bother with. On a related note, there's a question of how long people will map without getting big juicy dings from their loot filter I just changed my loot filter to give me those dings for every item and this game is amazing now.

Chernobyl Peace Prize posted:Another funny thing is, not only are the monsters too aggressive and fast themselves, but with everything bearing Archnemesis mods, their skills and on-death effects are too aggressive and constant as well. At any given point you can be juggling: Got used to dodging the homing bullshit pretty quick after I figured out what was going on but those loving lightning assholes still get me pretty frequently. There is just too much poo poo going on the screen at once to spot that bullshit that spawns in the busiest spot on the screen and LOL at seeing them easily if you're playing a lightning build like I am. gently caress those lightning assholes.

TyrantWD posted:GGG didn't need to do anything on the economy creep. The loot explosions from AN and Sentinel were gone (which were beyond excessive), and Kalandra should be giving out heist chests with the occasional mirrored amulet/ring. You also had the exalt/divine swap coming, and harvest nerfs. If ever there was a time to leave drop rates alone, it would be this league. Yup, removing Sentinels was already a huge nerf to the economy.
