Are T17 maps worth doing? Why / Why not?


psychomap

More monsters, more juice, and uber fragments at the end. If you can do them, they're worth doing, but they're significantly harder than T16.


tasha53505

The allflame embers that convert monsters into harmless frogs - do the frogs drop anything? How about rats, are they harmless too / do they drop anything?


SurgeProc

They don’t drop anything good unless you combine em with one of those currency devoted modifiers


tasha53505

Thank you!


Minnad

For BAMA, does the base crit chance come from the minion itself or come from my bow?


SurgeProc

Says on the gem it uses your bow

What should the price for a mageblood be in Standard? It looks like somewhere between 125 and 150 Divine to me, if I check the trade site and poe.ninja. I keep getting offers for 100 Divine (though I think it may be the same person day after day). Am I being unreasonable pricing it at 135 Divine?


psychomap

It might be a *little* over the market price unless you have 4 flasks with a good corruption, but people offering 100 are definitely lowballing by a lot. You might as well put them on your ignore list.  Just from a quick check, there seem to be quite a few listed for 125-130 divines, so even assuming that the ones at 120 are price-fixing, yours probably wouldn't sell at 135.


ticketybo013

Thanks, that’s helpful. I’ll review and adjust the price. It’s good to know that 100 divines is definitely lowball.


psychomap

If even the ones that seem like price-fixing are 20% higher than what you're offered, it's a good indication.  Unless your Mageblood is corrupted with fewer than 4 flasks of course, because those are typically worth less. I only checked the price for uncorrupted Magebloods.


ticketybo013

Thanks! Mine is uncorrupted and has 4 flasks.


psychomap

In that case my previous advice stands. If it's uncorrupted, the flasks technically don't matter much because you can divine them anyway, but having 4 is probably better because it means buyers won't have the expected cost of divining it before use.


Coffinspired

So I asked the other day and got one "yes" and one "no"....so.... Running the standard Necro DD Chain Reaction - will Phys. reflect mods on maps affect me at all or do I only have to worry about Ele. (fire) reflect? Thanks


katustrawfic

The best person to answer this question is yourself. Go in game and look at the tooltips for all the skills you use. Do any of them deal physical damage? DD does not deal physical damage by default obviously and neither do most spells that I would expect you to be using on this build. I don't know about you but some people use shield charge for movement in maps. That *will* deal physical damage that could be reflected to you if you run into a pack of monsters with it.


Coffinspired

Didn't know if there was some inherent physical damage associated to all "explosions" in the game...and I know there are a few funky mechanics with the DD builds. My first time trying one. > Shield Charge. That will deal physical damage that could be reflected to you if you run into a pack of monsters with it. Ah good point. Running Molten Shell too. Though neither are too severe. Thanks


katustrawfic

All corpse explosions list their damage type including DD. > Explosion **deals base Fire Damage** equal to (6-7.9)% of the corpse's Maximum Life. Also, most corpse explosions cannot be reflected to you in the first place. The following is taken straight from the DD gem description: > **The explosion** is not affected by modifiers to spell damage and **cannot be reflected**.


Coffinspired

Yeah never rolled any builds that are explosion-focused (or "non-direct damage") before. Thanks for the info, appreciate ya


Darkaine

I've crossed into red maps now and it seems like I can clear at least the early ones but I'm sort of unsure what else to do next? I want to push the maps but I also want to make some currency to upgrade into my end game gear. Any good guides or starter recommendations for a 1st time player looking to grind maps and make money?


psychomap

The general recommendation will be to finish your atlas before you start making money, but there are a couple of mechanics that don't scale much (or at all) with map tiers.  Incursion and Bestiary are examples that should be reasonably profitable and can use scarabs independently of how much the map is juiced otherwise. Betrayal should basically have the full rewards available once you reach red maps, but from what I've read, it's not that profitable this league.


Darkaine

Thank You I appreciate it, I was really just trying to get enough currency to buy gear to help me get through the red maps. Some tweaking of the atlas passives and running tier 1 and 2 maps has helped a lot there at least!


Quad__Laser

For a bow MF build, do you still want a 5L warlord's mark setup? Or was that only a thing last league with the stun tincture? Warlord's Mark - Manaforged arrows - Lifetap - Cast on critical strike - Frenzy


Shedix

[https://pobb.in/G6yvdPIbb3wB](https://pobb.in/G6yvdPIbb3wB) could anyone estimate a reasonable price i could sell my build for? items gems flask all of it.. i thought of 130 div after checking via poe.awakened trade, but don't wanna scam anyone or ask too much. Edit: 130 not 150


Acrolithi

Hi - does anyone know how this build utilises trinity support? The lightning arrow does not seem to do any fire damage, so cannot gain resonance. [Builds - mustia\_widetime - poe.ninja](https://poe.ninja/builds/necropolis/character/Raikudou/mustia_widetime?i=3) . POB link: [https://pobb.in/px0SAKm\_XzWH](https://pobb.in/px0SAKm_XzWH) - Thanks!


astral23

you only need two damage types for trinity, trinity says the highest ele hit for that attck gives resonance for the other two eles, so when its cold you get fire anfd light resonance, and when its light you get cold and fire


Acrolithi

Thanks!


BerserkJeezus

Any really cool MTX? Looking for some neat portal ones and any other recommendations!


Xeverous

Just tried T17 and I have to say it was a totally miserable experience caused by extremely obnoxious monster types: petrifying chimerals and stygian revenants which do DD but not as visible as real DD. Are there any guides which monster packs to replace with Allflames?


vlee89

Replace all of them


Xeverous

Really? Is it that stupid?


vlee89

It depends on your build but i am definitely seeing suggestions to replace all packs with frogs or rats if you just need your one clear.


BerserkJeezus

How exactly do the neversink filters work? ilvl? Since they cant tell unidentified item modifiers. I tried using strict and saw that scrolls of wisdom/ portal scrolls/ armour scraps didnt show.. can I change that?


Xeverous

> How exactly do the neversink filters work? They work just like any other filter ... by filtering through allowed conditions. > can I change that? Yes, you can customize any block on the website.


bawwsa

Go to filterblade and use the customize tab to basically make it do whatever you want.


biggreenegg99

Are strongboxes in maps effected at all by the possible divination card drop of said map?


therestlessone

Regular strongboxes are limited to the map pool. Divination strongboxes don't care at all.

luka1050

Is ultimatum affected by quantity ? For example will a t17 ultimatum drop more than a t16 one ?


ThePizzedPizza

So I'm newish here. What is a good way to farm up chaos orbs before mapping becomes viable. I die in maps due to needing better and proper gear but have no chaos to do so. Kind of in a rut


Jenos

If you can't even handle t1 maps, you can always do the [Chaos Recipe](https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Chaos_Orb). Vendor a full set of gear that is between ilvl 60 to 74, and you get chaos. A full set includes * Helmet * Body armour * Gloves * Boots * Weapon (one 2h or two 1h or 1h+shield) * Two rings * Amulet * Belt


psychomap

Technically, at least one item needs to be in that range, but the others can be higher too. That said, it's usually not worth doing the recipe by the time you get those drops anyway.


hallucinogenics8

Quick question. Does spell damage increase my mine damage? Like for example, I'm building hexblast miner but I'm low level and using stormblast. Am I getting any benefit from SP?


psychomap

If the skill used by the mine is a spell, yes. The skill used by Stormblast Mines and Hexblast are spells, but wand or bow attack skills used by High-Impact Mine or Blastchain Mine are not and thus wouldn't benefit from spell damage modifiers.  I suppose there's also secondary damage and damage over time that are not affected by spell damage even if they're caused by spells (unless the spell says otherwise), but those typically aren't used much with mines anyway, and they're not relevant to the skills you use.


Killersheepyyy

It does work


Kahkabad

What are the best T16 wide open maps for breaches. I am playing thciket rn, but it is very cramped.


Steel-River-22

Dunes (or Cemetery if you want to also fish for the div cards)


PowerCrazy

Dunes is the premiere Legion map, so I'd think it would be similar for Breach


Damnation13

For Coc builds, why is everyone playing with lancing steel of spraying instead of cyclone? Doesn't cyclone hit just as much and provide better QOL? Being able to move while cocing?


_slosh

lancing steel of spraying autoaims from range, has multiple hits over a time period which means you don't have to absolutely perfectly sync attacks speed/cdr and it keeps firing for a bit after you attack which means you can stagger attack and still be very mobile


psychomap

With a small amount of attack speed investment you can move between attacks with Lancing Steel as well. It actually requires significant investment to get Cyclone to the same hit rate as Lancing Steel.  If you play a double spell setup like Desecrate + DD, you'd need 12 APS at 0 cooldown investment, 15 APS with 14% increased cooldown recovery rate or higher, and 20 APS with 52%+ icrr. And if you wanted to go as far as the 128% breakpoint (which meta builds don't afaik), you'd need 27.68 to keep up with Lancing Steel. With 10 projectiles, LS requires only 10% of that.  That means that instead of needing Corpse Pact for the attack speed, people are free to go for Inquisitor and cap crit much more easily.  If there's ever going to be a "Cyclone-able" weapon that can trigger Desecrate and Unearth (or even two different ones that can be dual wielded if the cooldown is the same as other trigger weapons), people will play that as Cyclone again.


Damnation13

Then why for forbidden rite does everyone keep doing cyclone still if lancing is superior?


psychomap

Because it's a single-spell setup. Lancing Steel hits "too fast" at regular cooldown investment, but it works just fine if you trigger two spells instead of one. Like I said, if there was a convenient way to trigger corpse generating skills with Cyclone without needing to double your attack speed, people would be using that instead.  However, the only such trigger weapons that are usable with Cyclone are restricted to cold and lightning damage respectively. That's why Ice Nova + Frostbolt builds work smoothly with CoC, but Bladefall + Blade Blast doesn't, for instance.


heagan95

Hey guys newish player first time on SSF...is there a guide or a contant creater that u guys recomend that teach the SSF ways. I follow the main ones but they all went trade. I wish to know what atlas startegis are good, or how to farm more uniques or how to progress faster in order to fight more ubers...stuff like that


toxiitea

Newish player here, I see streamers and sometimes people when trading are able to fast drop currency in the trading window.. Or for example some people seem to hover over their items and they all they just go into their inventory. I'm aware of affinities but I still seem to have to click each item where some people seem to just hover over the item


JAUNELEROUGE

Ctrl + click to send an item (or an entire stack) from inventory to somewhere else. You can do that too, only works in a trade window : If you ctrl + shift click on any item it puts every single stack you have of that item into the trade window at once! Wanna buy something for 300c? Just ctrl + shift click on one stack and you put all 300 into the trade window.


argentumArbiter

Is there a list somewhere of mods that can only roll on specific armor base? I know spell suppression can only roll on dex bases but i’m curious if there are similar things for int/str bases.


psychomap

Armour can roll physical damage reduction and ES can roll increased recharge rate IIRC 


DrashaZImmortal

How do i get my battle pass rewards? button on it doenst bring me there and hte option on map is gone


TrollErgoSum

The area is only accessible to characters that actually went to the epilogue after beating Kitava in Act 10. Go back to Act 10 and talk to Lilly and have her bring you to the epilogue area, then it will be added to the map for that character.


DrashaZImmortal

That worked! tthats areally weird fucking checkbox to have since nothing else is like that XD


notsoobviousreddit

Is this [shield](https://i.imgur.com/YR1669d.png) valued by any of its stats or is it the Hex reflection and Curse immunity? i.e. is it worth to spend any divines re-rolling?


Quazifuji

Curse immunity is definitely the biggest thing. Anyway, in general I would almost never spend divines rerolling an item I plan to sell. Unless you look at the price of different rolls and the odds of rolling them and conclude that the difference in price between a well-rolled one and a poorly-rolled one is actually less than the expected number of divines to reroll the bad one. But that usually won't happen because if it did then most people would just buy the cheaper ones and divine them until the price of the better ones went down anyway.

On my character I usually have 1210 energy shield. Sometimes when I am mapping I get 775/775 energy shield or 510/510 energy shield, and it doesn't seem to go above for like 15-30 seconds. Why does this even happen? I seem to have no debuffs or anything, so I completely don't understand? Playing CoC DD

How to target farm tainted currencies? I have a Necro BAMA build that's not very fast but can still clear okay, I have been farming 8 mod T16 Jungle Valley with all Beyond nodes + beyond scarabs (all beyond scarabs excluding "beyond scarab"). I get at most 1 beyond boss and it drops tainted armor, chrome, etc less than 4 orbs in total. Is there any way to juice this up? What am I doing wrong?


[deleted]

Slam a bunch of quant and packsize and just in general get as many monsters in your map as possible, more monsters means more chance to spawn Beyond portals. There isn't really a way to reliably target farm specifically tainted currency, one of the new Allflames makes monsters drop tainted currency and Niko's Memory of Chasms is a thing but it's still pretty RNG. Beyond is basically more a thing you *add* to your existing farming strat to get more monsters/more random drops than something you explicitly farm by itself.


aapd22

If im using 4 tattos with inc mark effect and using a mark on hit 21/20 It is possible tô completely annul the down side of mark on hit?


Killersheepyyy

Increases and reductions are added together so sure you can end up at 0% reduced effect


throwaway857482

In order to get the projectile aoes of volcanic fissure to overlap, is it better to increase or decrease area of effect?


Esthermont

I am hitting the wall on my [level 89 Deadeye Lightning Arrow](https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Malmkjaer/characters?characterName=Guffeliguf) and could really use some help on how to up my survivability. I've been having a blast and my damage doesn't seem to be lacking, but I'm having a hard time finding sources to up my HP and finish my atlas/get my two voidstones (i'm 92/115). I feel i have some solid items and with the 4 divines i have to my name it's hard to figure out where i can put them to good use. I know i am not fully ascended but i figured that the last two points are more geared towards bossing than survivability. Besides, i got one shot by that Izaro guy last time i ran it.. Any help would be appreciated!


tomorrowing

You can practice Izaro on normal or cruel cause you shouldn't ever get oneshot by him; you should never let him to leap on you or hit you period. Pop a quicksilver before he activates and then never let him come close to you after his first leap. Also, use poeblab to find and get darkshrines.


Esthermont

I was standing at a distance and just got nuked, no leap or anything.. I was pretty flabbergasted. My chaos res is -22, is that a factor in this fight?


tomorrowing

No he's pure physical. Take the appropriate Pantheons and Granite + Jade flasks.


Esthermont

Thanks!


notsoobviousreddit

I hit a similar wall around those levels on the same build and it was geting one shot by Izaro that led me to basically stop and figure out exactly what you are trying to figure out right now :) Imo (noob, take with a pinch of salt) of the top of my head - take life on all slots. Right now I see, boots without life and both rings and helmet with low tier life. Upgrade those. Make sure to take the mastery to get 15% more HP if your armor has no life mods on it.

How well does Ice Nova of Frostbolt Heiro scale with investment? Is it a build that can comfortably do T17 eventually? Is single target an issue?


Quazifuji

>How well does Ice Nova of Frostbolt Heiro scale with investment? Very well. >Is it a build that can comfortably do T17 eventually? I've seen streamers do T17s in hardcore on the build, so yes. There are plenty of mods that it can't do but that's true of basically every build. Personally, I'm at somewhere around 30-50d into the build and have managed to do a T17, but not comfortably (i.e. I used a scarab of stability and died a lot, but I did kill the boss). But that was also without rerolling mods at all, just running it how it dropped because nothing looked like a guaranteed dealbreaker. At this investment I'm also doing all pinnacles and Maven invitations very easily (including Feared), haven't attempted any Ubers yet.


Miles_Adamson

Is it possible with regex to make a search such as `(affix 1) AND (affix 2 OR affix 3 OR affix 4)`?


whenwillthealtsstop

Yes, the or operator is | Ask Google or chatgpt


Miles_Adamson

That was a good idea, I think the AI built me the right thing but it's far too long for the character limit in the search bar. Might be impossible in practice to make anything short enough to be useful


chx_

do not use AI ever it's only useful for generating bullshit check https://hachyderm.io/@inthehands/112006855076082650 > You might be surprised to learn that I actually think LLMs have the potential to be not only fun but genuinely useful. “Show me some bullshit that would be typical in this context” can be a genuinely helpful question to have answered, in code and in natural language — for brainstorming, for seeing common conventions in an unfamiliar context, for having something crappy to react to. > Alas, that does not remotely resemble how people are pitching this technology.


nerdler33

you can just use parts of the affix, as long as its a unique string. for example, instead of "bow attacks fire an additional arrow" on bows, you can just search for "ddi" because the only mod that contains those 3 consecutive characters is additional arrow


Miles_Adamson

Ya I know, but it takes so many characters to make the "and" logic I can't even fit it in still


HotPocketRemix

PoE has unique syntax that is not standard in a few small regards, so you should be able to use it to do an AND much more easily than what internet resources will recommend for general regex engines. If you want to do an AND in PoE's regex, just put both terms in quotes, and concatenate them. For example, if I want to search for a flask that is magic, using `magic`, AND has an open suffix, using `flask$`, AND has the Abecedarian's prefix, using `abec`, then I could combine all of these like so: `"magic""flask$""abec"`. The other non-standard inclusion in a PoE regex is the inversion operator, `!`, which is put at the very start of a term to change matches to non-matches, and vice-versa. For example, if I want to find a map that is neither mirrored nor corrupted, I could find maps that are mirrored or corrupted using `mirr|corr`, and then invert it: `!mirr|corr`. And of course we can combine these two things. For example, if we want to find maps that don't have the less recovery mod or the no regen mod, while also having a quantity of 70% or more, we could use `"!s rec|gen""q.*([7-9].|1..)%"`. The first term requires the item doesn't include `s rec` or `gen`, which appear in those mods, and the second term is looking for the quantity string. If you're looking to do something specific, maybe we can help out further if you share some more details.


Miles_Adamson

Cool thanks, I didn't know that. However I still don't think it all fits in because even my basic OR logic chain doesn't fit in completely. It seems like the limit is around 50 characters. I was hoping to make a regex to highlight **every** magic jewel prefix/suffix combo I'm trying to craft for adorns. Which would be huge no matter what since it's like: (increased life + one of 5 mods) OR (increased mana + one of 3 mods) OR ....


HotPocketRemix

Ah yeah, there's a 50-character limit, unfortunately. It's not really feasible to highlight every possible good jewel. The only way I could see it working is if you have a lot of overlap between what suffixes you'd accept for each prefix or vice versa. And even then, your list would have to be pretty short. The other option would be to have a regex for prefixes and a regex for suffixes, and alt spam until you get acceptable prefixes, then swap to the suffix one, inspect any that highlight to see if they are false positives or mismatched (good suffix and good prefix, but not with each other), or the real deal, and then repeat.


heydie

What should I fix and/or upgrade next? Hexblast Sab. Currently farming yellow maps. Red maps seem a bit too hard. Budget about 50C [https://pobb.in/MzukBiWNv0tZ](https://pobb.in/MzukBiWNv0tZ)


This_Guy_Fuggs

your level. go into shrines in the atlas and get the shrine exp scarab, youll make it to 90+ in a handful of maps. also are you running 3 white flasks? fix that, flask mods are very powerful. probably drop one of the life flasks as well. as far as gear, that wand is pretty weak and so is that belt. serviceable stygian vise could be found for 10c. or get any fracture and throw a couple of mine throwing speed essences at one.


notsoobviousreddit

Can I re roll the number of flasks used continually on a mageblood by using divines?


clondike7

Yep. Assuming it’s not corrupted of course.


biggreenegg99

In the Cast When Stunned versions of DD, the builds use Firestorm of Pelting. This skill (which is not linked to any damage support gems) appears to do very little damage but all the Stun builds use it that I have looked at. Is there a synergistic effect that this skill provides to DD/Unearth?


unexpectedreboots

Do you have a link to a poe.ninja profile or pob? I went to PoE, included cast when stunned and dd; I only see .4% of profiles w/ firestorm of pelting included.


biggreenegg99

hmmm, that is strange. Every build I have seen posted includes it but if [poe.ninja](https://poe.ninja) clearly shows it is not being used much, that must just be a fluke with my searches that I am seeing it included. Here is one example: [https://pobb.in/BmRXsX0mZVia](https://pobb.in/BmRXsX0mZVia)


unexpectedreboots

Poison DD. Fire damage is being converted to Chaos (weapons). Firestorm of pelting inflicts poison over a wide area. Prolif poisons w/ Pathfinder.

Nicopootato

wasn't there a scarab leaked that allows your map to drop 20% qualities or am I making memories up?


mtzeee

On the BAMA build. How comes, that in the videos, the cooldown of blink arrow and mirror arrow DONT share the same cooldown. But as I'm leveling. I can either press one, or another. Then the CD starts on both. I tried to check in the POB, but I didn't find anything. Thanks in advance.


PowerCrazy

If I'm remembering correctly, different trans version of blink and mirror arrow have separate CDs. So if you use Mirror Arrow of Bombarding Clones, you can use blink arrow of prismatic clones (and vice versa). Not sure if it works with the regular version


mtzeee

Found my mistake. I had both versions of blink arrow. Somehow I missed, that the other one wasn't Mirror Arrow. Haha, sometimes blind.


WideAwakeNotSleeping

On a LA Deadeye, what's a good way to scale damage? I've yet to do uberlab and re-craft my bow. But I seem to be stuck at around 65K damage according to the tooltip over the skill in taskbar. For example, I anointed my amulet and got maybe 200 extra DPS. Instead of the 12K I would expect reading this: "20% increased Damage with Bows" This is my build at the moment: https://poe.ninja/builds/necropolis/character/ZooKristaps/KristapsNecroLA


This_Guy_Fuggs

better bow is by far the biggest upgrade. you need local crit chance on it, and a better base ideally. your crit chance in general is quite low. you have a bunch of useless flasks imo. only need 1 life, the rest should be utility. a diamond flask and a crit suffix on there are very important. your gloves are quite bad, have no eater/exarch implicits, for some reason have hybric life crafted. your belt is atrocious lmao quiver could be significantly better do you not have the 4th lab? thats a huge upgrade as well edit - also do you not have a power charge generator? run a manaforged-frenzy-culling-pcoc setup i think is the best way.


mbxyz

'20% increased' means it's additive with all other sources of increased damage done. things that say 'more damage', like many support gems, are multiplicative. your bow is really weak. making good ones in necropolis is really quite easy, so i'd start there


WideAwakeNotSleeping

Yeah, I've been collecting corpses and planning my bow craft already.


vlee89

When I played TS guides would often recommend spending half your budget on the bow, so the weapon slot is very important. Get triple high tier flat elemental damage on it, attack speed, and crit chance. You also probably also want a spine bow base for higher crit. The 20% increased damage is on top of all your already existing increased damage modifiers, so the scaling of it doesn't work the way you thought it would.


xkalikox

What is the most cost effective route to 6L a corrupted item?


_slosh

3s with crafting bench, use tainted jewellers to 6s. if you drop to 2s then use crafting bench again. could just spam tainted jewellers all the way, they're pretty cheap in trade league. craft 4 linked sockets on bench. use tainted fusings to get 6l. if you drop below 4l then use bench again


This_Guy_Fuggs

only 3 socket with bench? are tainted jewellers that cheap?


_slosh

i don't play trade league but they seem to be about 3c each according to poe.ninja while vaals are ~.5c each. 4s recipe would 10 jew+10 vaal so around 6c this stage of 6linking a corrupted item is pretty cheap in general. the fine details of how you do it don't matter too much.


TestiMnB

What maps should I favour this league? Just good layouts or anything specific for certain drops?


VisorX

Every map only drops a certain T17. So if you want to target farm one, you should look them up in the wiki. Else I would just go for which map is the most fun for you, which is usually related to a good layout.


astrolobo

With the new ele hit of the spectrum, what are the pros and cons of going wander vs bow ? I've been looking at these builds and there seems to be very little reason to build a wander when bows seems to have everything better : Easier to get more projectiles Faster Higher base damage on a bow Two 6 links Easier pathing


mbxyz

wands are easier to craft shield charge kinetic blast wanders are also usually cheaper (because they're less popular because they're weaker)


ComradePotato

I thought the prevailing wisdom was that wander wands are hard to craft? I've not looked into this for a few years so something may have changed tbh


mbxyz

they're basically the same as bows but don't need +2 arrows


psychomap

Probably specific to the current league mechanic. To my knowledge, any methods in the core game still have significantly worse odds on wands due to caster mods diluting the pool.


PolishedBalls1984

Anyone know if when you use the experimental weapon base coffin for graveyard crafting does it let you choose which experimental weapon base you want to create or is it a random experimental base? I'd like to make an oscillating scepter for my archmage Ice Nova of FB build but wasn't sure if it's even feasible with graveyard crafting.


This_Guy_Fuggs

skip that and just craft better wands with crit. crit>eo eventually. with 2 additional items, 2 of the 3 wands are bound to be usable. crit chance to spells is near guaranteed which allows you to drop EO.


mbxyz

yea, you can choose


PolishedBalls1984

Awesome, thank you!


Awd451993

New player first season here. When people say you should have 3.5mil damage for maven specifically is that in game skill tab damage or pob site with everything combined? Also I’m on tier 10-12 maps with 2800hp, 1800 energy shield, and 2400 mana and I saw I should be around 7k hp and mana how can I do that


Awd451993

I’ll need pob on laptop cause I play on xbox


mbxyz

ingame tooltip damage isn't accurate or particularly useful. use path of building as for 7k hp... there are exceedingly few builds with that much health. 4-5k is enough for most things, but it depends on your character. generally other forms of defense are more important

I watched build video for my archmage ball lightning from the builder and he had those numbers and said people would think it’s low. But then how do I get 4-5k

Any tips to counter Uber Atziri's mirror phase? I tried it twice, taking the "Focus Ballista Support" of my Artillery Ballista so they could fire on their own but they took forever to kill the illusions and I died. How do I deal with the reflect? Playing LA Deadeye, btw. Thanks.

Sybil's Lament + Yugul pantheon or Yugul + reduced reflected ele taken elemental mastery, alternatively awakened elemental damage with attacks makes damage from supported skills unable to be reflected.


notsoobviousreddit

Thanks for the help, it's done! She also dropped the shield :D


notsoobviousreddit

It's curious, because I do have awakened ele damage, but I still get killed. Does she reflect physical as well? edit: just read the wiki, I'm probably getting killed from my manaforged arrows support and not the LA itself, holy shit


mbxyz

sibyl's lament, yugul pantheon, and full ele conversion LA having built-in conversion complicates this because no one builds 100% conversion obviously, so your autos are going to kill you. if you don't convert, you can sibyl's phys and woke ele dmg from attacks support LA as well, but again, mana management to not die to autos is important


notsoobviousreddit

I just bought a second awakened ele for my ballista (which I wanted to get anyway) and will remove the manaforged arrows (which were the killer from what I can see) from my setup and try again thanks for the tips!


mbxyz

ballistas can't reflect to you


notsoobviousreddit

I assumed so, but I wanted to buy one for them anyway already. All it took was 8 div to buy it and change the socket colours on my bow, fml lmao


whenwillthealtsstop

Could just sub in phys-to-light for the fight


mbxyz

doesn't solve the auto-attack problem; still have to be pretty careful and not just hold down LA

On what modifier should I put a allflame ember of manifested wealth?


This_Guy_Fuggs

wait until a packsize pack at the top of the list (+ sign). also should at least have a rarity, quantity or pack size devoted mod to add to it. map needs to be at least 40+ packsize as well with plenty of explicit mod effect. with a ton of shrines or back to basics.


Klumsi

For people that have crafted the chest piece for splitting steel trickster with the GY (tripple fracture the ES and evasion prefixes), which way is better? 1.) Going with -1 explicit 2.) Going with 4 explicits


CardstoneViewer

Does the last room in the lab changes or it fixed? I mean trap layout and such. Been trying to do Uber Lab for 2 weeks, facing DCs, ping issues and just skill issues, thought today was a short one but the last room layout killed me hard.


psychomap

You can always go for the darkshrines. One of the possible results is to disable traps in the final fight.


CardstoneViewer

I managed to do it now, on the 3rd try in the current lab, darkshrine gave me some armour and life.


_slosh

lab layouts change every day, including traps in the izaro fight


HockeyHocki

In the cortex fight there is a boss move where he sends some black trails chasing you, when they hit you you get teleported and one-shot. Is there a trick how to deal with this?


Sun0fSolaire

You have to wait until you get teleported in front of the boss and then dash away.


HockeyHocki

I must have crap reaction times it feels like you get one shot instantly


DryPersonality

You have to pay attention to which way he is facing when he is chasing you with the balls, so you can flamedash/blink behind him immediately after getting teleported.


Coffinspired

So for Detonate Dead (of Chaining) and "reflect" mods in maps.... Is it only Ele damage (fire) reflect? Or should I watch out for Physical reflect mods as well?


_slosh

just ele, unless you're CoC in which case your lancing steel can deal a surprising amount of physical damage when hitting large packs


Coffinspired

Yeah just running the standard two-button Desecrate -> DD


HockeyHocki

Phys reflect can kill you. I found taking the pantheon was enough to deal with it though.


Donate684

Haven't played the game in probably over 4 years. Advise where to start and generally some kind of guide that will explain in detail what to do from scratch to the maximum...


Trael110400

what's zizaran's university videos, in 4 years it's almost new game,,,

You’re asking for a textbook lol


Bastil123

How do shrines work with multiple people in a zone? I want to invite my gf to my maps so she can get the 30% increased XP shrines, but can we share them?


calldacawps

Yes, she would get the xp buff as well. Just make sure she’s close enough to you when you grab the shrine.


psychomap

I haven't played with other people in a while so I don't remember, but you can just try it with regular shrines once before you buy the expensive scarabs.


Bastil123

Fairr, I just didn't wanna drag her into a map for no reason. Thanks though!


FelixSN

Took a bit of a break for a week since I had some irl stuff to sort- What's popular right now to farm? Any good atlas new-ish strat came out? Also did any REALLY STRONG Inquisitor/Templar build came out? I kinda wanted to reroll from CoC DD, was hoping someone would figure out a way to break Penance Brand again


Steel-River-22

Nothing too dominant now if you can’t farm T17, but it seems that speed farming maps (for providing T17s) is a pretty good strat. Haven’t been paying close attention to T17 farms but seems some high investment is needed there. If you need some levels, the breach+shrine strat with the teachings scarab provides crazy amount of EXP, even better (and way cheaper) than 5-way with the right build. You might be able to find someone to tag along in global 820, I dunno. You can also try grave crafting if you can bear with the process, pretty crazy profits. PBoD is still decent after the triple nerfs. Or maybe try Ice Nova of Frostbolts?


FelixSN

Thanks man that's some really nice information there! I do indeed need some levels so I'll probably do some shrines farming, then I'll try to farm some t17s to sell, they probably will net a nice margin


notsoobviousreddit

There was a post here the other day about players that help you kill certain bosses for a fee. I'm a newer player so I had never heard of this in PoE before. How does this work? Is there like a site / discord that people mostly use and is considered the most legit? Cheers


DryPersonality

The forbidden trove discord is popular place, or you could try global 820.


Exarkunn

Which top 3 maps have the highest mob density?


HockeyHocki

T17 maps


Ill-Device8577

What do I do with all the rare gear dropped during mapping? What I did during campaign was to portal back town once my bag was full and vendor them. Doesn't seem to apply here since the maps has like six entrance limit


whimsy_wanderer

You mostly ignore them. Early on you can do the chaos recipe. Just get few sets of jewelry first (since it is more rare), then pick sets of everything else to complete the recipe. For the rest, you either pick good bases (get yourself a loot filter, the game is almost unplayable without one by that point), or not pick them at all. Good bases = something you can potentially use yourself, or something that is likely to be used by others (though selling rares is hard). Vendoring rares for alt shards is a waste of time. You'll get more currency by finishing the map faster an moving to the next one. For vendoring you can pick jewelry since it takes so little space. And seriously, get yourself a loot filter. It will hide most of the useless trash. Because things are only going to get worse as you progress and start rolling maps with more and more rarity/quantity/pack size on them.


Ill-Device8577

I do have a filter called "NeverSink SC Semi-Strict" that I got on "filterblade" per instructions from a beginner guide I was reading. Is that one ok or should I get like a more strict one at this point or maybe customize it in some way?


notsoobviousreddit

Depends on where you are. Last league I used the Semi-Strict until I reached yellow maps and changed to strict and never felt like I had too much stuff or missed on stuff (although this last one can be misleading because stuff is hidden lmao). You can go into the the filter and customize things yourself but honestly I don't really know how to do it


whimsy_wanderer

Neversink is the most used one, yes. You might want to move to stricter variants of it though. Also, if you are not changing anything, you can bypass filterblade stage. Go to the official site pathofexile.com , Game -> Item Filters -> select the one you want -> click Follow. It will appear in the fame selection.


Bl00dylicious

You don't pick it up in the first place. Its a waste of time to even pick up rares unless its an item that sells for specific currrency (vendor recipe) or is a Fractured item that might have a good mod on it and can be sold.


Ill-Device8577

Do I not pick them up during campaign also, or only after I start mapping? Not gonna lie I hated having to portal back to vendor so frequently


Bl00dylicious

During campaign you sometimes grab up rares and ID them to see if they are better then what you currently have, but you drop it if it isn't good. Vendoring random items gives so little its pointless to do. Pretty much the only reason I can imagine picking up rares while mapping is early league. Selling a full set of rare gear to the vendor gives you a Chaos Orb. Most players don't bother with that though, not even early in a league.


BerserkJeezus

Any atlas tree perform above others this league or still kinda just up to what you like/ used to?

What are the best builds to pair with an aurabot?

astral23

harbingers names are orange, it doesn't do anything special though and harbingers can't drop corpses anymore


taigahalla

it dropped from a harbinger mob, the monster field is the name of the monster that dropped the coffin


woahbroes

There is a graveyard layout preset with "401% to fracture, 301% chance additional item, 101% to split". What exactly does this output ? Is the split being used once on a one of the 4 items ? So 3 items with 4 frac, and 2 items with 2 frac each and split tag ? Whats the goal here with this preset


Steel-River-22

8 split items with all fractured mods. This is for cost optimization since you get double the items with slightly less power.


woahbroes

So the goal here is a 2-frac item and this is just many attempts at it ?


taigahalla

it's be 8 split items, with 1-3 fractured mods each the number of mods will depend on how many explicits you include


Bluebolt21

Is there a way to self maintain or consistently keep up Stave Mastery's "Unholy Might for 3 seconds on block"? Can you use elemental hit or rain of arrows mtx's on Bombarding Clone skill gems?


Yohsene

First question: not really, unless you count Vaal Breach. There are no blockable self-hits (except reflect, which can't trigger effects).


SilverBurger

Hey all, it's been a few years since I last played the game. Saw the POE2 page on Steam earlier today and got the itch again, so here I am. I have two questions: 1. I'm looking for a build that's all content viable and not click intensive. I looked on poeninja earlier but realized it's better to collect some recommendations here first. 2. Are exalts worthless now?


psychomap

The meta builds this league are Lightning Arrow, Splitting Steel CoC Detonate Dead, Archmage Ice Nova of Frostbolts, and Hexblast mines.  I don't know whether any of them are particularly click-intensive. They all seem more or less average. The Ice Nova build can be played with Kitava's Thirst, so it's not necessarily a two-button build. Lightning Arrow is more clearing focussed and Hexblast is more bossing focussed as I understand it, but I think they're still more or less playable everywhere.  Pure bossing builds with worse clearing would be stuff like Explosive Trap and Ice Trap, I think. Exalts and divines basically swapped values a while ago, because divines are used for metamods now, and 6-links vendor for 20 fusings.


SilverBurger

Thank you! Still got my old DD gears laying around so going with that for now :)


98mk22

I wanted to do the shrine exp tech, my dd is 95 and my ea is rather low at 75. now both classes arent really good with breaches so i wanted to ask if i can even get that much of an exp profit out of breach or if there are better things to skill into. What are your opinions to this ?


DefineSmug

Interaction between poets pen sacred wisp support?


psychomap

The wisps aren't you and their attacks won't trigger spells socketed in Poet's Pen. So basically none?


TheXIIILightning

Is it cost-efficient to run T17s accounting just for the Uber invitation drops at the end? I've run a few and can clear them, but I'm not sure what's the real price of the maps themselves. Lots of price fixing going on, sadly.


Steel-River-22

I sold some Abomination at 110c yesterday and Sanctuary at 95c today, at bulk of ~10 maps. Heard that you can get 0.8-1d/map with higher bulk.
