Not that it matters because gambling is fun, but someone did the math and its negative EV to Vaal tabulas.

One - click lottery items like veal orbs and reliquary keys will almost always have negative EV because people love to gamble and will rmt to consume hundreds of those fuckers

Build: Facebreaker/Ancestral Warchief from this guide: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/1694250

So my question is: is the belly worth it when I can get a 6L and only give up a little bit of life.

My character is Choppy_Totems here: https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/choppyesq/characters

I'm using the same build and I've been thinking of dropping my 5L belly for a 6L rare but I think I would need to drop abyssus to do it, I'm at ~5200 health at level 84 and get knocked down to <20% health pretty often in red maps. I already keep a deidbell around to swap in for trials because traps become insanely deadly if I'm wearing abyssus

Do abyssus users typically switch to a different hat when fighting Izaro?

What's up with the playable characters not saying stuff/reacting in the new acts? Usually after killing a boss in Acts 1-4 they would say something and it was a nice little touch

They probably don't have access to all of the voice actors anymore. A few of the npcs got different actors for 3.0 but redoing voice work for a player character would be a lot more work on top of the cost of new lines for every playable character across every new act. $$$

She isn't eaten, just stored inside him or some magical nonsense. She comes out to help the brine king during the fight, after all. I suspect she's supposed to like, escape when you kill him but I sure didn't see it happen.

Yeah shes definitely dead, the player character just feels bad and tells everyone she swam away to live in the ocean and won't be coming back

Are there areas that you can only lightning warp/etc to? that could explain why I can never find switches to get to platforms

Yeah Im really not convinced manipulators are having much of an impact on the economy, I think what's actually happening is people sell exalts 1 at a time and poe.trade takes a few minutes to catch up, so any time you search for exalts to buy there will be probably a few dozen listings that have already sold

I've gotten two "twice blessed" darkshrines in one uber lab and only got two enchants at the end so its definitely an improvement if you can't get duplicates

engineers orbs work like other +quality stuff: they'll give +5% to normal rarity, +2% to magic rarity and +1% to rare/unique strongboxes. As far as I know the only way to use them effectively is to use them on diviner's, high level cartographers and maybe arcanist's strongboxes.


If there are mods on the box scour it (unless the mods are already really good,) then use 4 engineers orbs, then orb of alchemy, then maybe chaos if it's a div or cartographer box and the first mod roll sucked

Yeah I think I'm going to do this and then move to a Belly. That will get me up to ~4.4k. Then I'll go from there. Thanks for the input guys!

Also on a lark I looked up the price for currency and these available quantities are something else


Yeah thanks to globalism you can stock up on a lifetime's supply up currency for the cost of a cheap night at the bar. It makes me feel less bad about accidentally scouring the 100c+ amulet I found last night :unsmith:

Not that I would ever personally buy currency for irl cash that shits for chumps

When is it worth spending C on Zana mods in general? I've been doing T15+ with Perandus tonight for a while and i'm certain I'm behind in terms of making money.

Zana mods on high level maps felt worthwhile for the first few days when T15 and T16s sold for 8c+ but I don't think any of them are worth spending chaos on now. I check alkaizer's stream sometimes and I never see him using them

Unfortunately i play HC so there is not a lot of stuff in the gstash (and all the worthwhile items that was there are currently equipped by my dude :D)

The wiki states that only shadows can buy fortify support.

Wow I just checked the wiki and it is bullshit, the shadow is the only one who can buy any gems from siosa or lilly. Why play anything else?

So are most of the prices listed for popular items price fixer accounts.

Popular items will sell really fast if you list them at the lowest price and then you'll get 10 minutes of buy requests filling your chatbox. Maybe some of the listings are people trying to mess with the market but the end result is the same - the ten cheapest tabulas have probably already sold

In the war of the atlas trailer they show the elder munching on the Hydra guardian and then showing up in the shaper's realm, has anyone tried letting the elder infect the entire inner ring of red maps to see if anything happens like him taking over the shaper's guardians and realm with his own?

There's level 85 elder stuff on Poe.trade, so there must be some way to make him infest t16 maps (or maybe red elder drops ilvl 85 stuff? I've only killed yellow elder)

a few weeks ago I sold something and after trading the buyer went into my Phantasmagoria map, helped kill the boss and then left without another word. Last night I bought some Vaal fragments from some guy with a cyrillic name and afterwards they did the same thing. I've never had a trader take any other portal before, is there a bot that's just triggered to run Phantasmagoria any time they see a portal to it?

abyss uniques drop from the two abyssal liches: abyssal liches have a small chance to appear in abyssal depths and abyssal depths have a small chance to appear any time you open and complete an abyssal rift in maps. You'll know if a depths has a lich in it because the music will be different
