I thought there was going to be a way to juice maps, where is it?

drank too much caffeine and am having an anxiety bad time, but it'll pass, I remember the first time I had one, I thought I was gonna die, I went to the hospital and the doctor said it was just anxiety and I immediately thought "damn, I'm just being a pussy" and immediately started feeling well
anyway, mercs are 100% going core whether you like it or not

BRING
BACK
TOTA
NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

*SLAMS THE THREAD*

I really like Mercs, I was doubtful going in but as a ssf player this has been really fun. Gave up on my HC ssf runs though, between servers and the duelist merc coming out and 1 shotting me in .1 second through lucky maxxed block 4.5k health and i dont remember how much armor taught me that I'm bad.

Has anyone tried that new spinny blade vortex gem? A merc almost gibbed me with that shit.

Start doing this <

>Mixed
Why did poo flop?

>>527686984
okay, tell me what to send and where

Brick ? ssf BAMA

Whats the strongest witch build for ssf reroll?

>>527686984
I have been. I'm sitting on six divines and paralyzed by choice. Gamble on some more fusings with each divine, risk a bad Black Morrigan encounter (some mods are bad for me), or just 1500 fuse link after I find that bench recipe.

>>527686984
this picture is from the settlers league
>>527687156
this picture is from the necropolis league

there have been several instances now where I kited a merc while my minions dealt with it, and when it got to about 10% hp it just fucking teleported to me and one shot me. different archetypes same shit. there's no way this is just random.

How's Elementalist ignite? Any particularly good ignite applicators?

>He bought a supporter pack for this league!

Wow just caught up on that Jrv dude, hes almost as unhinged as Mqecco

PoE2 has more content than Diablo 2
PoE2 has more armor than Diablo 2
PoE2 has more story than Diablo 2
PoE2 has more abilities than Diablo 2
PoE2 is more modern than Diablo 2
PoE2 has more things to do than Diablo 2

But PoE2 player count is going down and Diablo 2 player count is going up.

To a marketing analyst, advertising person, a person that deals with data, big data.
Explain why PoE2 is not performing as well as Diablo 2 in 2025

For any anons who are struggling with replacing your mercs in maps, you can just run into a plain white map and the merc won't be buffed to the heavens and it makes replacing your mercs with max lvl ones much easier.

TWO GAMES
BOTH DEAD

>PoE 1 completely flopps
>BUT POE 2!!!!
It's so sad at this point. You lost 17.

>But PoE2 player count is going down and Diablo 2 player count is going up.
source?

patch today right guys?

NO ONE SELLS ME THE FUCKING MAP I NEED FUCK YOU IDITOTS

convince me not to reroll boneshatter zerker with kongor meme mace

>>527687770
Because Earthshatter is melee and Snaking is "melee". The more autoaim in a build, the more popular it is. See also: RF.

Poe=uninstalled
Time to take another 3 year break.

After extensive testing I can confirm the SST is dogshit and I should have played literally anything else.

>>527689585
You should've played a different game.

do the bribery and pillage & plunder betrayal nodes do anything useful?

Yall think its worth it to 6 link my kaom axe? Or should I just hold off

>>527688734
>boneshatter
It feels like shit to map with.
>>527688792
Earthshatter still has some pretty good range on it. Its boneshatter where you get zero aoe.

What's the best kit for Fallen Reverend merc? So far I like how he doesn't die, gives me free Wrath and floods the screen with meat to take away mob aggro.

i have no idea how he did it.

These were 8 chaos before MAGEFIST put out a video

>build so shit have to read t16 map mods
its so fuckin over. what builds can just go?

Is it just me or today's merc lab is absolute insufferable?

>>527690921
Nvm managed to kill him in 3 portals He drops 3 t1 life triple t1 res base eva armor with 73 strands First time see good armor drop in ssf

>all the eu femboys in chat whining about their server
>5 minutes later NA crashes too because they all swap over
Can you guys just stay on your own server instead of DDOS'ing mine?

All these people having server issues
Meanwhile, I, texaschad, have had no issues.

>>527691142
Slammers are so funny because they'll insistently leap slam to you.

pconc can do every mod barring no leech.
until t17s in which case it cant do any mods.

>>527691220
Just thought i'd toss out the usual PSA for especially less experienced players or people who get easily frustrated (like i do, at times ;)):

Do not give up on your starter too quickly when you run into difficulties.

A very, very typical thing to happen is that people give up on their builds once they start to run into issues in late yellow/red maps, and think "it's the build".

90% of the time, it's not the build - it's user error/lack of gear/lack of levels.

Most builds will hit a "soft" wall around red maps where you need to actually invest and properly scale the defenses and the damage beyond the bare minimum which is sufficient to cruise up until that point. Dying a lot in Softcore in early progression without investment is NORMAL. Struggling with damage a bit on tankier builds early on is NORMAL. This is the floor you build upon.

This can mean bringing additional defensive layers online, adding cluster jewels, getting enough levels to have enough passives (plus flat life, never underestimate that) to actually bring multipliers online. Understanding how valuable different damage modifiers are for your current setup, diminishing returns, etc.

Keep in mind that if you "abandon" your build at this stage, take the little bit of currency you have and reroll, you are spending a lot of time to bring a new build to a similar stage, only to likely encounter similar difficulties again.

Ask around, ask build creators for help, ask here, learn about your build - and invest into it.

Unless you just really hate the feeling of the skills you're using, trust me - most of the time, you'll get over that hump and things will start to "click".

Addendum: also, if your build is feeling lackluster, avoid Mercenaries for the most part. They add +40% hp to rares, +50% to unique bosses. If you're struggling solo, imagine what that does ;)

>>527691073
Did they remove it?

I never tried the cursed ground support before, but with how much FREE aoe elementalist has now it's kinda usable. Shit covers entire screen and lasts for 34 seconds. One cast is enough for harvest, big bomb ultimatum usually only takes two.
Yes I'm still swapping to curse on hit ring

>>527691293
Meanwhile im on GFN(EU central) Frankfurt(poe) also no issues
Fucking eu pajeets

>>527691370
it can't do any bosses either lmao

When people for example say "juicing" a map do they mean take pretty much all atlas points in the specific league content you want to do and then chisel + alc + corrupt map and then use 4-5x scarabs?
I want to do Legion so let's say I do I simply go for above in a tier 16 map?

so EK nova is not a thing anymore right? no threshold jewel, no helm enchant

>>527691384
Ye

>>527692403
Trans gem. But its shit, lower speed.

me and my friends :^(

>>527692737
>>527692403
just need headhunter

so
who was the emperor during the poe1 story?
izaro, voll and chitus were all past emperors weren't they?
is it ever revealed?

they just parked and went for a beer? fuckin hell

>>527693304
If they're anything like the retarded crew I had today, they parked themselves inside a wall where I can't fucking click them because apparently they can teleport there

>>527692010
It means using scarabs to boost and focus on the content you want to farm.. the atlas allocation is a prerequisite.

im scared to use my currency on making a 6l in ssf because i know its not my final chest and i might find something better after that i want to link instead

>>527692010
Full maven chisel
Full delirium
Full scarabs
Full mods and then corrupted

>>527693204
No emperor, the empire was being run by the Inquisitors the act of god guy

>>527693204
Izaro>Chitus>Voll (last emperor).
Izaro could not make babies because he was sterile, so he made The Labyrinth. Chitus "succ"eeded him because money can buy you anything, including shit to beat the Labyrinth (plans, items, connections). Because Chitus Perandus was from a merchant family, you can guess what the fuck happened - hedonism, corruption, etc. Then there was a rebelion because that retard pushed things too far, and Voll became an emperor, except Malachai had the last word, because like hell he will die to some zealot jobber. And so apocalypsis happens. The rest is history.

I'm brown and PoE 1 is too hard for me.

>>527693204
>Izaro was the last Phrecian emperor, he was impotent and built the Labyrinth to decide who should be the new emperor of the Eternal Empire
>Chitus (((Perandus))), a merchant, big nosed his way through Lab and then was crowned emperor and then immediately banished Izaro to Lab forever.
>Chitus went full retard with Virtue Gems aka skill gems, leading to the Purity Rebellion headed by Voll (who thought Virtue Gems were cringe)
>Chitus was killed and overthrown, Voll became the last emperor
>Voll was about to execute Malachai, the top Virtue Gemologist but Malachai said he knew a way to destroy the source of the gems
>Voll retardedly let him live and then Malachai communed with the Beast and Wraeclast got blown the fuck up AGAIN, ending the Eternal Empire
>Voll is now an undead trash mob in a shithole
Oriath is an Eternal Empire knockoff where the Templars came from. Dominus is High Templar. He wanted to make out with the Beast just like Malachai did.

I'm white and I'm hard for lily

>>527694362
just follow a guide bro. can't go wrong with fubgun bro.

poopy in my pants

>>527694403
The real lore fuckery is when you start listing off all the before-civilizations that they keep adding over time

>>527693974
>>527694158
>>527694403
but I swear in those lore entries in act 1 there is mention of a current emperor during the war against marcus lioneye which is also present time isn't it? because piety talks about it as if its just happened?

Did they just wind up not adding the inverted res with offhand runegraft? It's not even in the exchange.

>try literally any build that used to work just fine
>now needs some gay ballista/totem/trap/mine, thread of hope, 6 cluster jewels and a bunch of other gay shit
LOL nice game pooptards

>>527694868
Anon, there is no emperor when you are doing PoE1's campaign. Just the Templars from Oriath.

>>527687514
People who bought a supporter pack for this league are the same kind of people who, after they've preordered a shit game that flopped for the Nth time, say they will never preorder again.
The kind of people who make things worse for everyone.

>>527694992
>Old build can now use new mechanics to get stronger
>This is bad
???????????????????????????????????

what did they do to leveling in this game where in a few days theres 15000 level 93 or higher characters in the league???

>>527694868
Lioneye was killed by Kaom during the Purity Rebellion, hundreds of years before PoE1. Wraeclast has been a corrupted dead shitzone since then.

How do I get enough chaos to buy the required items for this fuckin build? I'm on t14 maps but fuckin squishy now

>>527694976
Was too fun, couldn't have that

>>527695437
I just wanted to shield throw...

>>527695335
NTA but I can't blame anon for thinking it just happened considering how Piety talks about it to Marauder.
>You were more than a man than Kaom, Karui.
Like why would you know about that.

Kaom is a figure of legend, it's no different to saying 'eminem got nothing on you' I don't have to know shit about rap to make the compliment.

>>527695336
sell bubblegum currency
if you're dying a lot in T14, go lower, better to finish maps fast than keep on dying finishing harder content.
you're looking to farm mercs as well they usually carry some chaos with them.

>>527687770
Snaking is easier to use, due to being a pseudo-ranged skill with auto targetting. Still, I wouldn't claim people have abandoned Earthshatter, which is overall the stronger skill, even if it has less QoL. If you look at HCSSF, Earthshatter is more popular than Snaking at higher levels, while Snaking dominates slower players.

what does near mean

>>527695940
Bullshit, they got ddos'd by the players trying to play the game. There's a reason why Washington servers started crashing too

Why is he orchestrating a DDOS attack on PoE1 servers? Who are his accomplices? Tencent?

>>527696253
lol
lmao
see you next week

>>527696253
Around 5 metres

So which merc can actually do single target damage?

>yuroseethers were SO mad about POE1 they ddos'd the servers all weekend

>>527696046
The funny thing is that Sin tells you that Beast has no agency. People who communed with it are entirely to blame, because they were the kind of people who should never have any power.
Beast is just a tool - how it is used depends on who wields it and for what purpose.

>>527695904

The ddos thing is just cope right?

>European servers have been facing a barrage of DDOS attacks.

>>527696289

does it matter which lab i run to get a transfigured gem or whatever?

>>527697172
Merc lab is the best overall

>>527697172
higher labs have a chance to have the option for the specific gem to trans instead of just the gem color

>>527696161

Maybe its all the bots that are crashing their servers? Especially when doing trades and trawling trade for deals/sniping? Or maybe its the chinese?

Holy fuck, am I missing something or does this faggot have like 200m hp?

1. ground loot is utterly abysmal/bugged
2. jonatroon blacklisted my account so no loot drops
3. neversink fucked something up
so which one is it?

do you think that rog could clear an entire expedition encounter on his own if you AFKed long enough in the map

>>527697685
Well you can confirm 3 by pressing alt now and again and 1 seems to be working well for other people so...

>>527697716
Ward and Regen means basically no.

>>527697615
Party scaling from mercs and any energy shield mod makes a lot of bosses ludicrously tanky.

>>527697972
>Normal mobs get only 20%
>Uniques get 50
I dun geddit

>>527698021
it isnt meant to be

>>527697972
Yeah I noticed that killing bosses is way less painful when I ditch the merc

>>527697276
>>527697320
well that was easy, got it first run, thanks

>>527697352
i bet you had that cunny name

>>527698021
2% seems pretty viable to me?

>>527697352
FrierenSucks27 is that you

>>527697972
>>527698165
Dropped the merc, and did it first try. This scaling is ass. I guess they want to prevent people from building boss killing mercs.

This is a reward for wasting 2 whole days on sanctum trying out the nerfs, totally deserved desu

LEEG FLOPPED

wait, ziz and steel aren't a gay couple?

>>527698830
grats
i assume you have HDR on

>>527698021
Trans gem that splits it into 5 secondary projectiles on impact, AoE breakpoint shenanigans allow overlaps

phrecia was the last fun poe1 league we are every going to have

>>527698021
Taming + Skitterbots + 6L is all you need to do 4 voidstones.

>>527699137
4 voidstones is not endgame

First one of the league :D

ngl this league is actually growing on me. it's fun desu

>>527698830
Are you playing conners "new" build?

>>527698830
Nice, I got one from nameless turd in Affliction League.

>>527698830
What spell are you using for CoC?

what stops them from putting out a preliminary merc patch today?
just patch shit as you fix shit
why does it have to be all at the same time

>playing static strike ssf
>rebuke drops
erm... whar?

>coward trial
>ofc it crashes

is there even a point in clicking on mercs if they arent infamous
they are shit with useless gear + currency 99% of the time and then you have to kill them or lose social credit score and get nothing for it

>>527698021
Instead of throwing it, you drink it and then explode. Its like Voltaxic Burst but it deals % of your life as damage

>>527698830
Thanks for blinding us all, anon. Nice MB though, you lucky cunt.

>>527699890
they might be carrying a div. my merc div farm count is 4.

>>527699890
I stopped even bothering with the fucking mechanic, by maps they either one shot you or die instantly when you hire them regardless of gear/stats

>>527698906
>>527699926
Thanks.
Yeah, I have HDR on. IDK why but it makes every recording look like absolute dogshit. Wish I knew how to fix it but I'm too retarded.
>>527699389
Nah, I leaguestarted CaptainLance's energy blade sanctum farmer and couldn't be assed leveling a new character when I got bored of sanctum, so I grabbed his new pob and copied a CoC pivot build that he had there.
>>527699430
Nice, it's my first time getting anything worth more than 5c from nameless, I'm now indebted to him for life.
>>527699478
Lancing steel of spraying + Ice Spear of Splitting. I was using eye of winter as the dmg spell until I got enough dps to change. I still need to use it for T17s and such.

Here's a bonus: pausing at the wrong time can stop "Flask is reused at the end of the effect" loops which cucked me a few times with this Balbala build.

>>527699890
They carry random items, often decent ones. Unless they're killing you, they're just free loot.

>>527699890
im playing ssf and all my good rings and amulets from mercs
i think they have tiers infamous only makes one piece of gear good (with new affix)

>>527699630
um...
uh...

I've never seen a mageblood before

>>527700316
They generally just have good gears really, Infamous WILL always have a unique though.

>>527700196
So Eye of winter is still more damage for maps/singletarget?
Also dumb question, why do people go bloodmagic? If I switch I would gain 500ish Es after EB but I would lose two 50% auras, is that really worth it?

>>527700605
I only ever look at the rings amulet and belt since getting to red maps
haven't seen a single worthwhile piece of gear in any other slot

Why haven't they buffed skills in poe2 yet? They said they intentionally made most skills weak because they would go crazy with buffing during the "patches", but it's been months and they've not done any buffs?

>>527700616
Eye of winter is better damage but ice spear flies around everywhere and covers the screen. You need good damage to actually kill mobs with it though.
Blood magic is an easy way to take care of any mana issues and reserve almost your entire life pool (which you need to do to scale Ivory Tower). The end game energy blade setups can drop it but it requires better gear. Honestly even just putting a couple dozen divines on the basic ivory tower setup is enough to melt the end game, this build is fucking busted. The only reason it's not nerfed is probably because Lance is fuckbuddies with someone at GGG or something.

>>527700316
im at the point where all my gear has like 3-4 decent mods + a crafted mod and i havent seen an upgrade on a merc in a long ass time
im getting mighty tired of clicking on a merc, hovering over his gear, clicking the pouch, waiting 3 seconds and then killing him

Are high level Mercs' strong enough to be the main DPS for T16s? Would like to try being an aurabot/linker for a change

Is there a way to have 0 links? Otherwise this is just 40% increased damage, right?

>>527700196
>Wish I knew how to fix it but I'm too retarded.
you cant
thats how hdr looks on non hdr displays
its why you dont see hdr supported youtube videos because you have to render/color correct the video twice and the amount of people who have a hdr display and have it turned on is really really small
i have hdr monitors but i dont like how it looks so i turn it off.

>>527701186
Got it, doing the same build but I just dont know If I can drop my haste + purity aura for just 10% hp, then again the people making these build probably know what they are doing so maybe I should just switch.

>>527695904
ddos is the biggest cope of all time for we dont' know what the fuck we're doing

>>527701607
>>527701186
But I probaly only have like 3d invested into it atm with the basic coc setup

>>527700892
Additions to the gaping hole in the middle of the game are 'marketable' so they 'have to be held back for a big release' meanwhile more power creep on the backend to poopsockers can be thrown in casually.

>>527701607
you get one aura for free with eternal blessing.

>>527701302
yes, I saw a 0 links while using fusing last night. Could load it with auras and travel skills I guess

>>527699890
what do you mean you don't want to risk your character for 2 alts bro?

>>527695651
there are more lines than that too
the letters you read also imply it happened in present day

>Accidentally 6 link my Rakiatas while trying to 0 link it
brah

>DDOS
does anyone buy this? lmfao
I don't
they're talking out of their arse
its such an easy get out of jail free card
>guis it was hackeeeeeerssssss! don't be angry!

>>527701992
can't you just sell it for buko bucks and get a new one?

Which item filter do you use?

>>527702109
my own

>>527701747
You can get a Malachai's Simula to test out blood magic before respeccing your entire tree. I was actually using that for quite a while.
Also, don't forget to quality and enhance your enegy blade, it gives a lot of ES. Also, getting 100% crit asap is an insane improvement for CoC builds, so a 6L ivory with increased critical strikes is pretty great for the build. If that's not enough you need more str and/or int for the ascendency node.

>>527702092
Yeah but I am actively using it which is kind of annoying. Realistically I'd need to buy a regular one and then sell one after, but I just spent my divs on something else.

>>527702256

I was just gonna stick my auras + enduring cry + leap slam (without faster attacks) in there. I basically am just losing out on faster attacks on leapslap for 60% increased damage which seemed decentt

>>527702109
fubgun but i modified it for my build

>ddos
Sure ggg sure

Is it just me or is stronghouse progress a lot fuckin slower with the Betrayal changes?

>>527702540
is it a notable or other piece of gear that's conditionally giving you a 10% increase per unlinked gem on your mainhand or something?

>>527702204
Im already pathed down there for the str node, so I can swap and just try it, just need another level so I can change bandits for 12% ress so I can drop purity of elements, and then maybe use wrath on a blessing?

then i manually increase the strictness by hiding things as i progress

I'm enjoying banners quite a bit.
I'm tanky as fuck, I move at 200% movement speed, and pressing it every 3 seconds really isn't that bad.

Ok i have a bunch of bars dust and crops
how do i turn that into mirror shards?

>>527702683
its mostly like a t4 (catarina) safehouse now in terms of rewards so it makes sense that the intelligence is slower

It is 100% not a ddos, just more lies from Jonathan.

The loginserver is on a seperate ip from the gameserver, it whitelists your ip only after succesful auth,

Loginserver then notifies gameserver of your whitelisted ip.

It is impossible to ddos the gameserver, as it is white-list only. (you can't even ping it at level 1)

Basic mmo network security from 2002.

one time i went to the hospital thinking i was having a heart attack while playing dota2 and the doctor forced me to tell him the name of the game i was playing. the absurdity of being forced to tell an ER doc i was doing really well in a dota2 match ended the anxiety immediately.

if poe is such an easy game, you should be able to complete this map, right?

Banner skills suck because valor charges aren’t stored in an easily readable location and also it is hard to mentally calculate your future valor because it’s gained from hitting something, and hitting something is hard as hell to predict in this game. There is a similar problem with warcrys. I just don’t use banners mainly because they’re not that good anyways. Would probably be better if valor was gained on cast, or if banner skills were auto casted when you reach maximum valor. Or, if stored valor was permanent similar to Vaal souls. Actually yeah if banners were literally identical to Vaal skills it would work way better. Warcrys need a clearer animation boundary because it’s hard as fuck to tell if it hit the enemy. Like we’re at the stage in the game where you can’t stand in the middle of a huge fight and expect not to die. But you’re clearly rewarded for doing that with warcrys. But once your dude is strong enough to actually do that, the benefit of a warcry basically is solely due to exertion anyways, so the warcry itself isn’t really doing anything. Its just weak as fuck design imo. Or they could add like a status debuff above the guys head if he’s currently affected by a warcry, similar to a curse. I dunno. Im just not enjoying pressing my warcrys like I should be. Shouting skills in d4 are pretty snappy and responsive and visually clear. Warcrys are somewhat complicated using weird English words but that’s kinda a feature overall I guess.

in old betrayal you would do catarina every time you could easily get most of the rogues to rank 3 and complete the safehouses by clearing map with the atlas tree notable. Nu betrayal is dogshit

>>527705493
>T3
Best I can do is 2 alch

>>527705493
is that even worth finishing the craft if it's t3

>>527705372
this betrayal rework is half baked as fuck
the catarina zone still has the part where you walk to the garden and the +200% xp map effect but the zone has xp gain / loss disabled so its just a long as fuck corridor with monsters that have no reward for killing them
like 90% of the new rewards are straight ass, nobody and i really mean not a single person wants a crafting bench where you can spam lesser eldritch embers / ichors on a lvl 50 chest base

>>527705493

>>527701257
its possible if you use the wander mercs, but it would require a massive amount of currency, their damage doesn't scale as well as a players does.

>>527705885
genuine question, if you just craft it's ass so if you suffixes can't be changed slam it gets expensive, there might also be an unveil that's good too which also gets really expensive. all on a t3 suffix probably isn't worth the investment

how do we fix Assassin?

the only mods you want on that item require ilvl 83 or less

>>527703008
Merc is giving me wrath. I am using blessing with grace, but it doesn't disable my other auras because of the wording on the gem.

brother plays poe also, every single league he plays heiro artillery or siege totems. he was a artilleryman in the army and just loves the appearance of the skills.
he asks me to help him with a few of his maps and stuff and we get to talking. his atlas is scarabs, settlers stuff with harvest for crops. only thing he is doesn't like is that einhar isn't really useful to him (he just likes running with him i dont think he's ever used a single beast.) then he is just dressing his merc up in the best gear he can find. i dont think he's ever had this much fun in a league just sending boats and dressing his buddy up (only uses ranger or scion because the men ain't einhar he said.)
just a different perspective for poeg on the league lol.

I havent played poe2 since the initial release. Did they add more story after the time travel stuff yet?

>>527707245
turn it into its phrecia version

Sulphite -> Ore passive seems really good. Dunno about the torment dust or harvest crops.

do workers from kingsmarch still cost money if they are idle?

uh GGG where the fuck are all the dudes?????????????

>>527707967
No, if they have nothing to do they don't use gold. The farmers however are always farming so they never have downtime.

Youre also missing part of your brain if you think posting that image improved this thread. You might seriously be the biggest fucking faggot in this whole thread you ugly fucking bitch. Do you know, DO YOU SERIOUSLY KNOW HOW MANY TIMES IVE SEEN THAT PICTURE? Youre melting my brain. I literally would instantly kill myself if it wasn’t so painful to die. Because I have to keep looking at the same comment and picture over and over for years. Like, do you understand what’s happening? Thats torture. That’s severe torture. Almost comparable to gore.

why are all of the new maps so long and gay and slow and with op bosses that take forever to spawn in

what the fuck they stealth nerfed the secret kirac strat for getting 150/150 in white maps

anyone else not able to use alt to see how much of a currency is in your inventory?

>>527691382
So my alberon's warpath + iron mass moshpit with the bro skelemelee summon & smite build is viable?

it really seems like any build without a minimum of 20k phys max hit and 80k+ ele is complete fucking trash to play

What if instead of uniques being uniques now, all the unique modifiers were just added as normal modifiers and uniques were deterministic drops from certain content as a way to either get strong uniques early on mediocre bases or with mediocre modifier synergy, or as a way to target farm particular combinations of modifiers?

today on pooegg we learn that bad builds are bad
next lesson will be on how to finish act 1 without a build guide

gotta go fuckin FAST

Which color of harvest jizz should I focus on for selling on the grand exchange?

>>527712098
What if they just made uniques actually unique and only one could drop each league

whatever the fuck that update was, I simply cannot launch POE after it.

Why the FUCK does Neversink's filter show off tinctures
they're hot garbage

Every "build" problem is a skill issue

>>527713019
It's nto and that's the point. Jonathan is trying to get you lovers to stop playing. Hrs doing everything in his power including putting t18 map mods in low tier maps, fucking item and class balance, gutting archetypes you enjoy, adding more screen clutter, and ddosing his own servers. Yet you speeds still keep playing the game. What else is he supposed to do you just won't stop playing

I knew I should've just gone straight for the cluster setup cause now I need like 40 regret orbs

>>527713294
tincture mafia pays him to so retards pick them up and think they are good so they go on the trade site and look for better ones than the shit ones they dropped
this is where the mafia comes in they have price fixed the entire tincture market.

when did they remove the "heal when using any flask" node from pathfinder?????

Bros my Kirac is busted....

>>527713848
it’s a flask mastery now

Seeing the talk about using boat gamble as an atlas I gave it a go on my SSF character.
Everything I did on him was only in +10 alch and go maps. The picture was the best of 3 lost shipments I found. It feels much higher then 6% but random is random. It does seem you are guaranteed 1 tattoo or runecraft as all 3 of mine had 1 in them.
The Harvest to Food, felt very underwhelming. I guess if you don't want to Faust trade in trade league, then it's fine. But being able to guarantee you will get currency you want via trade or just using the harvest currency would be better. The text on your crop drops is fucking tiny and I was not sure it was happening.
Maybe getting the more Verisium node (if you can kill it) plus Bismuth if you want ward I guess is probably the most use. I didn't get a either of those off of Niko spawns, just Crim/Ori.

Why are niGGGers so anti-fun? Feels like whenever I am messing with something on POB, there's always a gotcha that would make the build go from playable to complete unviable. That, or my favorite when they remove features and mechanics entirely

Thinking of leveling an occultist, but I wanna try something new. Is Wintertide brand good enough to run the acts?

>>527714943
Earthshatter is better.

>>527715870
Yes, just take the mastery that transfers the brand from enemy to enemy when it activates for clearing. You get both creeping frost and wintertide at level 12 and it's all smooth sailing from there granted that you aren't a retard like most of this gennie.

>>527720902
i feel the same way
my copium is that we havent had a good league mechanic since 2023 (necro was horrible, settlers was literally a mobile game where you lose out on mirrors if you don't do your dailies, this league is a fucking minion following you)
build diversity is also the worst i've ever seen it and they aren't really taking any steps to solve it

Lol you fucking morons are so worthless. You truly believed I would part with my item for less than the current market value had predicted. You must believe some crazy things. I will not be taking any less than 10% more than the current market value. I enjoyed reading all the messages, I can only imagine the desire you had to get free stuff. The world works that way Timmy, you get free items in this game. Totally for free.

>memory retard shit is going to be a core mechanic

Who the fuck wants to check what the mechanic does (sometimes MULTIPLE) and then remember to use this shit? Meanwhile the fuckboy group is printing fucking everything using it.

This is retard level design.

>>527720590
if you don't have stash tabs, you're brown
i don't make the rules

a quad tab and currency tab go a long way. everything else is optional but for casual players who don't juice content they don't need to worry about much else.

>>527721147
they're also removing all aspirational content, in crucible i was chasing the most badass bow ever, then they removed iiq from gear so there's less reason for me to want good gear, then affliction you wanted to get strong cause the wildwood was insane, then settlers i had like a 5 mirror build because i was farming titanic blights/ghosted exiles, and they nerfed the fuck out of that shit too
genuinely what the fuck is the aspirational content anymore except for making a faggot armour stacker and doing baldo's maps

>>527721732
Yeah it's looking like a challenge mtx and quit league. All the new stuff is gay and/or retarded.

>melts uber bosses in your path
nothing personel

Really stupid question, can you block without a shield?
I really want to make a retaliate kind of build between block/dodge and hit shit with claws or unarmed really fast

>>527721732
I've only interacted with one memory map and I had no idea what I was doing, but I hated it. Sentinel felt very streamlined compared to this dogshit.

>>527722451
Dual Wielding has a 20%(?) block chance and staves have some amount listed on the staff. Shields are definitely the easiest way to cap block though.

>>527722490
i only did one and when i saw the boss was literally just sirus i portaled out and just went back to running normal maps

>>527722451
yes, bottom of the tree has a bunch of dual wielding block nodes while top-left has a bunch of staff block nodes

>>527722558
>>527722673
You're right, I just noticed that, so I was right to choose duelist for this idea then
That 60% damage buff for 2 different weapon types might tempt me later, but the idea of just using 2 fist weapons feels cool
I'd think about unarmed but I assume that gives no block chance because there's no weapon equipped

Mercs are the league, the memory shit is going to be a core part of the game.

>>527722976
i think it's the host they use and the auto pause on desync is bricking the game for people with shit ping or routing. they also backported the nvidia driver workaround which is fucking people up.

i know mark says 3.27 is going to be the "giga" character balance patch(just 4 more months copium)
but christ we need a patch NOW
go on twitch and see what streamers are playing
its literally the same 3(2) builds
worse than settlers.
i think putting trarthan gems so much farther into the game was a mistake
if you could pick them up from merc lab or even by killing mercs during early acts then more people would have decided to play a new skill instead of the same 3 starters

>>527723434

do u guys think ben actually likes the game

>>527723434
it is weird because usually on monday streamers are putting out videos on new builds that they've cooked up. that hasn't happened at all, at least on my feed, even though we got significant new uniques, runegrafts and new gems. i'm willing to blame some of it on the server issues but i think the balance is just really really spermed ultimately

No, it's all a psyop for twitch subs, anon. Considering he will autistically answer almost every question for hours straight in his chat about the game without getting all butthurt and egotistical like a lot of streamers, I think he generally does like it. You're free to have your own opinion.

i just want my fucking transfigured gem

>>527722438
I can put pretty much whatever I want on this slut so I prefer str/dex/int myself

>>527723951
anything?

>all the streamers having their endgame gear is because they just play 24 hours on day 1
gay ass shit
nobody that does this *actually* bought any of their gear

so who is ddosing poe servers? who is so butthurt

>>527724317
>it is weird because usually on monday streamers are putting out videos on new builds that they've cooked up. that hasn't happened at all
you're right.
its very weird.
mathil has only just started playing a new skill today and probably wont make a video on it for another 3-4 days
but he made a pre launch and post launch flame blast totem video which is a fucking ancient build

If a merc dies do they drop any replaced gear?

>equip merc with the deciver belt for intimidation

Do infamous mercs spawn in lower tier maps? I have a big day or two where I want to play a load of tier 11s for challenges and some easier xp.

I also can't tell if higher tier maps such as tier 16s have a greater chance at spawning them. Any ideas?

this is good right? how much should I realistically price this?

>>527726070
you can just revive them with money it's not like they're disappearing
you can take all of the replaced gear off of them in town too even if they're dead
the only time you'll lose replaced gear is when you dismiss them without taking the gear off

>>527725859

grab awakened poe trade and you can check for yourself easy, with split element that is 1c if you are lucky, most spell builds dont use a staff also

What's the /poeg/ tech for CoC this league? I'm using lancing steel of spraying my cum everywhere, not liking ice spear of splitting much though. EoW seems a bit better, anything else I should try?

>>527726214
infamous mercs spawn even during the campaign

>>527726639
I already did use awakened poe but there is nothing with these specific mods on the market
and the stuff that are similar only have one mod for 2-3 divs so I figured I'll ask here for more expert advice

>>527726251
I kill mobs -> her Inpulsa procs. It's a typical AG glove paired with Legacy of Fury

>>527726292
I could but then I'd have to get her a good wand first

>>527726838
should i do that if my aoe is alright but single weak

>>527726814
oh, nice job then, for an item like that id group up by element, check with all fire mods then all light ect, if ya still got nothing then mess with the values in each mod, sometimes setting then to the min will show more results, if all that fails that you 99% chance its just a shit item

with all the god gear mercs are shitting out, if an item doesnt have full t1/t2 with an open mod its basically shit not worth posting

15 hours /played
as such I am on day 2 of league

>>527727057
>with all the god gear mercs are shitting out, if an item doesnt have full t1/t2 with an open mod its basically shit not worth posting
what a shame but thanks anon I'll mess with the mods/range more

>grab whirling blades thinking I can use it instead of dash for getting around
>can't traverse cliffs with it
>my single target damage sucks

Woops

>>527726929
Get the same setup on your Merc you mean? I wouldn't recommend it if your single target is weak already but it's up to you. You can take off the gear you give them anyway

>want to buy a shaper shield base

i can take it off
https://streamable.com/b1x3jp

>>527726349
no, it's worthless. if that was a wand/sceptre it would be alright, but staffs go up to +3 and you're giving up a shield which is a large defensive trade off.

>>527727668

>>527712098
anon just go play grim dawn

>quin already prepping his chat for new game
what the actual fuck happened? he played 0.2 for like a week then quit because "the vibes were off" and now it's the same thing with 3.26.
is this a sign that ggg is in total collapse? every streamer nigger pretty much finished gearing and bossing, the league has no content. servers are completely unplayable.
chris(t) leaving destabilized the whole fucking company to such a degree they can't recover.

Does multiple projectiles on Venom Gyre stack it faster? I've never seen this skill but it seems like it'd be cool, kind of like spectral throw

>>527728605
>"the vibes were off"
he has no ubers to kill
he said so literally before the reveal event
once he finally killed all ubers in hcssf his desire to play poe for months on end evaporated
now he plays for A month at most and then hes done
and he probably thinks these new pinnical bosses are going to be a cakewalk so he doesnt think he will need to play for much longer
AND
variety game slop brings in alot more money.

>>527714234
>Thanks for your report, this is intended.
dangerously based, I wish poe had a lot more of these little flavor interactions

Is there a way to make strike skills less aids to play? the targeting is so shit.

>>527729093
the tree literally has +0.1m strike skill range
why are you complaining?

>>527728948
he's gone of several rants about poe 2 being the future and poe 1 being dead now. i think a lot of people feel the same even if they don't realize it.

>>527728948
>he has no ubers to kill
that's cope, he didn't kill a single end game boss in poe2.

>>527729204
even with higher strike there are several moments where my character is pathing around an enemy instead of hitting it between targets.

>>527715695
engineering orbs give you 20% more quant on one box, and it doesn't round upwards, so if you drop 1 divine you still drop 1 divine. even if you dropped two divines with the atlas node you still just drop the two divines. you would have to drop 5 divines from a box for engineering orbs to give you 1 extra divine. best case scenario engineering orbs will "maybe" give you one extra chaos on an arcanist box. they're practically worthless.

everyone itt saying the league sucks just quit and hates themselves and need to justify it by shitposting

>>527729284
yeh but the game is shit
poe1 is a good game and and he beat the ubers
poe2 isnt a good game so he doesnt feel good playing it and beating ubers while already miserable isnt going to make him happy so hes not going to do it

>>527729503
kinda agree. is it as bad as kahlandra? no. as good as it should of been after having almost a fucking year to cook? also no

>>527729407
I'm not going to shitpost it, but the league was pretty fucking weak. leveling was actually a lot of fun with mercs but it fell off when I hit maps and it felt like playing standard, with the same inflated currency market that prices me out of everything included. to be frank I don't think I'm going to play poe 1 at all again until they remove that absolute bullshit 100% more currency per player that they fucked every solo player in the ass with this league.

>>527729707
why does party play break your mind? it isnt going away so play ssf or become a craft chad

What kinds of mercs are good at low levels? The flamehand one seems kind of trash.

Has the league been good so far? I kinda wanna play. Maybe I should just do SSF when I'm this late?
What's some good starters?

>>527729470
>yeh but
go to bed quin, you're as washed as alkaizer. d3 hasbeens unable to cope with reality.

>>527729503
the reward is the mercs themselves. the problem is that most people have no idea what to look for in their mercs or how to build them, and ggg also took a steaming shit on the economy and priced everything out of 90% of the playerbase's reach besides.

Best merc for Worb elementalist? Currently running a haste one but i feel like defense is more an issue at the moment

>>527730872
should mention i only just started white maps. are there any mercs that defensive auras and would my stone golem buff the aura i receive?

Made character yesterday, didnt kill anything, didnt even pick up the wand at strand so i could start today, did nothing in game. Now somehow my character is lvl 2 and inside town. Since i didnt kill hillock i cant go back to strand and nobody is offering quests so i could move on. How the hell i fucked up my character on strand already? Sick game

>>527729470
>>527732937
I figured it out, holding the mouse is useless, so you need to spam left click to make strike skills correctly target around you. Spamming the left mouse via macro solves the issue. no need for whatever you guys were suggesting.

>>527733550
>she still doesn't understand why putting 20% quantity on a strongbox is worthless
if you want to know just ask. it's ok to be retarded. it's not okay to seethe about it and stay retarded.

>>527733779
i'd skin transfer that fan for every shield I get if they were holding it in reverse. GGG artists have never gripped an item before to perceive the basic strengths of the hand

>>527695138
that's just a factor of the game itself being solved. level 93 only takes like an hour of farming t16s, and a lot of people understand the game and league start builds to the degree that they're farming t16s on day 2.

>>527733916

yea it was way too OP due to the other mastery that made your auras effect your enemies. literally 80% more damage from two mastery points and purity aura. one of the devs said those gems were never supposed to be in the files to begin with because they were scarpped well before launch, but not everything gets cleaned up before launch.

>>527734134
anything that requires a charge to be consumed a charge will need to be generated for that. there are ways to have min charges, crafts, uniques, etc. but min charges just give the charge effect.

>>527735195
shrug. they aren't really worth using yourself even with 20% increased effect, but having your merc completely shred enemy armor for FREE while you use real big boy gloves sounds like a great deal for phys hit builds. charges are also pretty good on mercs, too, especially if you can give them conduit via a skin of the lords (or even just endurance charges with replica ambu's) to share with you.

>>527735551
>charges are also pretty good on mercs
i have noticed this.

>>527735261
the problem is that the game provides little to no context or knowledge of its own in-game history. if we read a letter today and it went "yea that hitler guy he sure is crazy he's invading france I don't like him very much" we'd instantly know it's from 80 years ago because we have that knowledge, but you read "yea that kaom guy he sure is crazy he chopped all our guy's heads off and I don't like him very much" we have no clue when that happened and the game doesn't tell us, or maybe it does on a hidden rock in some optional area that nobody has visited since 2014

>>527744085
gold is directly tied to the item level and rarity of the drops it converts from. the only way to get more is to farm higher tier maps and scale monster rarity and pack size for more and rarer mobs thus more and rarer item drops thus more and bigger gold drops.

man smite feels like garbage on bosses

probably need to upgrade your gloves and boots at least for more armor?

Go full armor on that build, anon. And try the mini DoD ascendancy passive.

>>527744605
if you take sanctum of thought and the mastery you can slap 50% of the damage off of crits, which is probably what's blowing you up. shock too. shock crit dead
you also dont have any phys taken as elemental. like with 81% it'd just be oh i don't take #% amount of damage anymore

How are you meant to become tanky? Even with 6 endurance charges and capped res I can still get shotgunned by magic packs even in t4 maps. Also fuck mercs.

how the fuck do people get infamous mercs I only get shitty ones

>>527745619
>How are you meant to become tanky?
it depends on where you are on the tree. bottom left? endurance charges go a long, long way. a whole lot of armour and a whole lot of getting your resists above 75%, like just getting to 76 is a good chunk of damage you're not taking anymore, never mind the two +2s and the +1 in soul of steel and the +1 for wearing armour and and and

>>527745663

>>527744605
Im not opening your build but if you have a rare shield make sure to get reduced amount of extra damage from critical hits on it. If not get a shield like dawnbreaker to lower damage taken.

>>527745619
you're likely dying to phys damage, which is hard to mitigate.

>>527745663
Thought your post would end with

>>527745971
Just get a merc that gives you the phys bubble shield.

>>527745904
I've got 78% all res and 6 endurance charges along with 21 fortification, 16k armour and sand stance to reduce damage by 17%. I have no clue what else I can do to avoid getting nuked.
>>527745971
I've got 16k armour though without the endurance charges.

after having played poe2
poe fucking sucks in comparison

>>527747672
it's the opposite
playing PoE again feels like a breath of fresh air
PoE2 has a massive identity crisis to get through and I think it's a waste of time to play it atm

I'm straddled between high yellows and low reds and I just don't interact with mercs anymore. I feel like I can't afford to until I get 10x more damage to delete them before they delete me.

>have better jewelry in white maps than my settlers lvl97 thanks to merc smartloot

Poo2 is a big shit and will be for years

they really need to add a mtx that removes all your effects so we can see what monsters are doing. my cosmic ea is cancer

>map boss has immunity phases
why is this allowed

>>527747759
>>527747672
it's actually neither of these points, they both excel in their own way and we actually would be better off if they somehow magically pulled off the 2 campaigns 1 endgame meme while merging ALL of the good parts from both together while cutting the fat from poe1 in particular.
They still would have had the freedom to make the alternate atlas as an alternate endgame for poe2 if they really wanted to to replace the current atlas or leave it to exist alongside/one within the other somehow.

DOOMgawds give it to me straight? are we winning or losing this league and why? I dropped it act 3 tower, think I'm too enlightened for ARPG's now.

TRVKE

>>527750015
the exact opposite is true

is this any good for pconc?

>>527749250
Regarding PoO2. A complete victory. The game is an unmitigated disaster. Diablo 4 tier dog shit.
PoE 1 is a DDOS win. The league seems to have good retention even so.

>>527750278
of bouncing ye

>>527750015
Crafting feels more intuitivein poe 2
Recycling gear with quality and getting gems out of them feels better

>>527749828
Blight is always easy and reliable money, but you have to allocate a chest opening mastery to make it less painful.

>>527750015
poe 1 feels great when you automate 99% of your actions and have 300% action speed. aside from that it feels like ass cancer to play.

When should I start using lesser eldritch orbs?

how is life one of the removeable mods?

>>527750991
its based on the level of the mod not the actual tier. some tiers are t1 at a very low level.

I hope they rework delirium one day to not make the game look like absolute dogshit

>>527751258
oh ok. that makes sense then

the 200-500 ping modifier is such a great addition to the map variety, jonathan really did it again!

>>527734518
The servers have been ddossed every day since 0.poo, i remember trying to play in May both poo1 and 2 lagged.
Russians and chinks are crashing instances to rollback-craft mirror items and sell them to rmters

>notables from cluster jewels stack
Well shit. I did not know this. Then again, why are they allowed to stack in the first place?

so the verdict is that the new trarthus gems are mostly duds

it just took me 40minutes to kill quest incarnation of dread. recommend me a decent build that doesnt deal negative damage

Why do people want Emperor's Vigilance for SST so bad? The defensive values aren't that great, feels like you'd be better off just making a rare shield instead

>>527755669
yes
they seem to curse(flammability) flame wall, fb then vfb all at the same time on bosses.
4k life, 2k es, 1k life and es regen

bretty good

>respec to something that looked fun on poe.nina
>suddenly unable to clear reds
I got baited by my own stupidity.

>>527756148
Might give them a try, I have ok clear, but I am really struggling with single target atm, so I am trying to find a decent merc, but the melee ones are shit, since they keep dying in red maps.

>>527756093

>found an infamous merc
>his gears are shit

>>527756093
Isn't it just meant to be your first real shield for maps? Pretty sure you want a crafted rare as soon as possible

why is no one talking about how dogshit the petal buffs are?

Playing retaliate glad feels like playing lacerate with extra steps.
Is there anything this build has over lacerate?

>>527756093
Its for crits. the 400 ES on it makes for the base to work with, and Seething Fury gem enhances it. Now just stack crit and crit multipliers and you are good to go.

fucking ass servers

>>527756591
Early damage, and a larger area on your slash. It will always feel like it has extra steps. Sometimes you get lucky and your retaliate just doesn't go off cooldown for most of the map. Those times feel amazing. But for the most part it just feels worse than lacerate.

>>527757002
So would the play be to just respec lacerate after hitting red maps then? Or should I just keep going with retaliate?

>>527754235
I hope you’re also playing with the zoomancer merc

>>527756695
>Now just stack crit and crit multipliers and you are good to go.
shame it's still garbage single target

>Put back Allflames
>But no tabs for it

>>527757520
>keep tattoos for another league
>no affinity for them

>>527757215
Honestly you keep going till you get bored. Retaliate scales with pack density, so the farther you push and the more you juice the better it feels. Lacerate will always be available to you for a quick respec if you get tired of the way it plays.

>>527756093
because you use it with this and it's way better than any rare shield could ever be.

>>527746135
At this level of defence (as in: none by current standards) he's probably being oneshot by white mobs.

>>527757447
I don't know. She feels underwhelming. I am waiting for a Despair + Malevolence slut to show up so I can use her as an extra aura-bot but she just doesn't show.

at 205 uniques now, just global drops + betrayal mostly, funny thing is that coruscating elixir is the rarest unique i have, if i had to guess i'd say that the map that drops the card isnt on the atlas, i ended up getting a full stack from grav also got a perfect mana roll foible

>>527757483
Not if you deal 700k damage in one hit.
My issue was using Ewar's Mirage and Magna Eclipse and not going crit, because for some reason i thought that having high penetration, Precise Technique, and +1 chain would be good. Glancing Blows is shit IMO, but when you have high evasion and high spell supression, its not that bad.

wew lad thank fuck i didn't fall for the champ meme

>tradecucks will never understand the joy ssfbros feel when a merc gives them this in white maps

>>527758909
SSF is pretty based this league. Mercs improve build viability by a ton just by their nature of being clearing and supporting monsters

These are uniques from a few leagues back, 725/1137
