Admiral's Arrogance were up to almost 50D early in the league. Still 10D now. Streamer playing your build can be quite bad. If you lagged behind, used be ok because you could pickup their scraps. But now everyone just volatile vaals instead. Though I don't think these gloves are a good target.

You made me think @ronne had died. This is an astro-level nobody obituary.

I would liken that people immediately going for guides when playing video games. Intricate, detailed, handholding guides. The most fun I have in PoE is taking a vague interesting idea, researching other peoples implementations, adding some restrictions, and then finding out how stupid my...

But I said I'm using it. I listed the reasons for my opposition and only one person responded to that. It was a valid response, but didn't really address my points. I'm pretty sure I'm misusing it or under utilizing it. I think that's orthogonal to my opposition. That was the main reason I...

I was posting serious sized chunks into google, does that count as using Gemini? I usually scroll right past the AI response but I was getting desperate. I don't recall them being very helpful. The tricky part of this is that I was trying to match a production environment, so the common...

Looking for a headset for work. Not sure what specifically I need but here's the base requirements. Wife takes care of kids at home. So, it has to be at least decent at isolating noise but doesn't need to be active cancellation. Mic needs to pick up my voice and that's it. If headset, needs...

Dead shit don't need to do damage calculations. In other words, up your dps. Or lower the delirium level.

Generally, I agree. I honestly don't know how to square those two longterm as this is now my 4th attempt trying to type up this reply. I feel like we're living through the runup to 2008 again and not enough people give a shit about what storage prices are doing as a barometer. And you're not...

How about people that are opposed to it because the ethical, moral, security and environmental issues and economic costs haven't been sufficiently addressed? Can you tell me how many man-hours it would have taken to do what Noodle did? Do you know if you ended up paying that cost in electricity...

@Khane I'm sure you already knew, but there's another flask macro build! https://pobb.in/04vDWKAw1dEv This is why I put inordinate effort into "normalizing" my builds. The only expensive parts of that build is Indigon and Unnatural Instinct(not required). Every other piece is under 1D, 10s of...

I stuck culling strike and feeding frenzy on a carrion golem. I know he will die frequently, so I'm treating it like a temporary active button press. Maybe pob warrior.

Wish I had discovered Cane of Kulemak(Explode Mod) + Gravebind earlier. This makes so many minion builds better. I kinda want to throw a Crusader chest on the AG as well just to see how well I can get him to chain. But, probably not worth it as Garb of the Ephemeral is pretty high opportunity...

My guess is that BV chieftan has hit critical mass and that jewel has become a corruption target for people that have nothing better to spend their money on.

wtf is going on? Fire Light of Meaning was like 1-2 div last weekend, now it's 8 div.

How's the BV clunk been? I cooked up a "budget" version but I'm not sure I even want to spend the time because I feel like maintaining a once per zone buff with poor visibility would be anxiety inducing. Almost done farming up a mageblood. Can't decide between the above or something with...

I've never done non-4 mageblood. Given it's almost always the only 100+ D item I buy, I figure buy 4 for the most reusability.

Farming up an expensive belt because non attack builds are gay without lots of movement speed. Yes, that includes Wintry Blast. More expensive mageblood or acceleration shrine belt?

Might as well go whole hog and use replica atziris acuity. But a chieftain without quicksilver sounds so good damn slow.

Yeah, that 20k flat phys was not an exaggeration. On the low side if anything.

In terms of snapshotting? I believe so, but I'm a bit ignorant here as most snapshotting is clunky to the point of unplayable. A self resurrecting minion is a tolerable amount of clunk, especially compared to what you get. What other sacrifices come close to minion pact?

How much damage do you need to add to bv to make it worth the clunk? How much to make it meta? Would 20k+ flat phys be enough? Amazing ele hit got patched and minion pact stayed in.

That was the one map I got the mirage on the breach. What do you do with your provisioning gifts? I sell the antiques, turn the mysterious into antiques, use the lavish, but still got extra hiveblood and lots of provisionings.

Anyone gotten breach hive or fortresses inside the mirage? Been running them for a few hours on different layouts and not once. AG stealing the corpse explosion mod is unnerving.

This is not a shower thought.

Thanks for the good feedback. Some of this was already on my next round of upgrades, like the gloves and chest implicits and fixing chaos res. For better or for worse, I try to arbitrarily limit my build's budget for certain progression phases so that they can be compared. How do I know a...

Yes, I know you can import characters into PoB. I would have bothered if I thought it made a difference. https://pobb.in/u9ogmdG3f1SK

I'm a few levels above this, but this is close enough. https://pobb.in/UmQsnKg11_PO

It's weird too, I was completely deathless through yellows, I don't think I've ever done that. Jinxed myself and just started eating shit. I'll list the map mods when I get home, I think it's still an excellent build, but perhaps something more map mod resilient next time. Felt like I was...

I'm having a hell of a time breaking into corrupted t16s for atlas points. I usually eat some deaths because I try to do this on a shoestring budget, but this was especially bad and I'm having trouble figuring out why. The boss of burial grounds was killing me with desecrate degen. Only thing I...

Does the volatile vaal orb make the supply constraint on items like Yndas even worse?

Just curious, how are you not too busy with planned work to be that proactive?

Broccolini.

Switching crops and ore nuked the main passive source from Kingmarch. Mappers got a nerf too, but I'm wondering wtf you spend good on if not mappers. No, I'm not doing arbitrage, fuck that shit.

Not a bad idea. How much will evaporated over a season? Maybe antifreeze would work better.

Anyone deal with mice getting into their car in the winter months? Fuckers built a nest inside the cabin air blower. Bucket and skewered can works well, but obviously they won't drown in frozen water.

Yep, Christmas, Thanksgiving, maybe one other week. With the previous years leftover days rolling over, I almost always have 5+ days unused.

It's not that I don't take vacation, it's those singular days off never get entered because I'm almost always 50+ hours a week.

Annual review today. Got a small bonus, no raise. Instead, compensated with European-amount of vacation days. Approximately 5 weeks. I can't remember the last time I spent the entirety of my vacation nor sick days.

Have you switched yet? How is the skill? I was worried about buff maintenance making clearing feel bad.

For Elemental Hit? No. Any other strike skill, likely yes.
