    Pretty much. The resists could stay, but 1 pen per 20 attributes would probably be much more reasonable with people easily achieving 150+ pen right now. It's pretty funny if you look at the necks price. Started like 50c day 1, then down to 10c for a week or two until people figured it up and...

    This is the first time the Elderslayer invitation has been added, so who knows if they borked some #'s there when they made that. I believe it was two expansions ago you could actually roll Conq citadels, which was the only buff I'm aware of in terms of hp/damage. There's also a Maven passive...

    ChocoTaco is playing it on stream right now, so that should help pump the player base up a bit. Hopefully their servers can handle an influx of players. PRETTY sure their auto matchmaking is complete shit as I was playing with EU and Russian and South American players nonstop when I connected...

    Drox is 100% bugged in that invitation. Really weird they haven't addressed it since Steelmage got blasted by it like day 3. Then there's numerous videos of it happening to "unkillable" characters. I ripped my first Elderslayer invitation too because you think it's the big fist that will kill...

    Servers don't seem to work for a lot of people. I can't connect to any game or see any server lobbies and according to their discord it's a pretty common issue with this latest iteration of the playtest.

    It's great. Combined with the staff there's potentially insane combos that probably haven't been discovered publicly yet. Mathil's using it with his Cumstorm build right now and has gear you would've destroyed any other league in every slot giving him 170 pen and all res. Pretty neat item...

    I've got $130 dollars, almost exclusively stash tabs (and the old 5 dollar CBT fee) over 10 years. I'd gladly pay a $1.10 a month sub to play this game with all the QoL I have. Honestly I think they should add about 3-5 of the paid tabs to the free game (Maps, Currency, Frags, Cards, and maybe...

    You can get Vaal Alt Quality gems, but the Vaal part won't be Alt Quality. So you can get a 21/20 Anomalous Lightning Strike, but the Vaal part of it will inherit the default quality bonus. You also can't hit 21/23 Alt Qual Vaal because the Doryani's only does 2 corruptions at once (+/- level...

    It's targeted farming verses rng farming. RNG with the influence wards, even though it's only 4 things really. You can treant horde + any combo you want to make it rain anything you need.

    Battle pass is probably 100% too much, $15 would probably be better, but I wouldn't buy it anyways as I don't care for skins. The outrage is hilarious though, people trying to justify "needing" MTX and making it seem like 117 objectives are "impossible". Classic PoE communtiy crybabies. Still...

    Elusive effect is good if you can generate Elusive, which many can't. Tailwind is 8% and their "reduced action speed" (???) goes up to 6% global I think. Basically it's close for any class that doesn't have those options in their tree/ascendancy the awakened boots version will win out. There...

    Mathil is just a Templar and using BV, that's all he's got at the moment. He's winging it for the most part. I hadn't thought about the Intensity jewels, but could definitely work, especially with EO or something. Kitava's used to be great because it made a one button build out of a two...

    I started manual BB/BF on my Chieftain this league. Got him to 89 and rerolled in Red Maps, not to lack of damage, but to lack of defense which was mostly my own fault. There's a few tricks for BB/BF. One is the new Ashes of the Stars amulet. That 30% qual on blade blast gives it a good...

    If you truly 20 qual every red map you run, you'll run out. At one point I think I stockpiled 400 and started using them (only on white maps) and ran out. It does seem you average somewhere between 1-3 per map with the current league mechanics though and if you're targeting it or speccing for...

    His arguments are pretty funny about "degenerates" when you realize he masturbates furiously and often to cartoon drawings of video game pictures with nipples. Also how many people "Don't get streamers" and then listen to Joe Rogan's podcast? A lot of that shit is the exact same thing. Some...

    Fusings seem rough, especially after Scourge allowed you to 6 link something near instantly and they took that away. Having less ways to 6 link with that and the Prophecy being removed means you're down to manually linking, Harvest, and the crafting bench. None of which are particularly...

    Yeah, if you find one half of a usable jewel, there's a good chance you can get the other half for 30-80c. They're omega common and only a few of the BIG ascendancy nodes go for bank. (Inq pen, Jugg Accuracy, Occultist pops etc). Also if you're an Ascendant, get a set ASAP. A HUGE amount of...

    I LOVE MANGLER! WANNA FIGHT ABOUT IT? Mangler did weirdly hold steady through the rough GoD+ era, but it's been dying off in SoF/SoD era. Still 10ish guilds full clearing content, but a lot of boxes in those raids to fill them out.

    Marcus is doing a weird reverse where he went all "I'm the bad guy now!" to "I'm maybe not the baddest guy now!" Like he's still influenced by Sol or whatever, but he genuinely seems like he's trying to do it the 'right way'. Maybe he's just going Old Testament and everything he's doing is...

    Leagues pretty good so far. Definitely some QoL stuff to be had with the league mechanic, namely sorting the mods or more easily being able to ID what they contain/are. I'm sure they'll do something about it a week or two in. Map yield seems pretty good. Ended the story with 1 map drop and...

    I'll PROBABLY level my Chieftain with EK, but there's some issues. Good clear, bad single target (one proj per target). So you need like Fireball or Firestorm or SRS or something weird. The thing to keep in mind is that most of the spell buffs only start to apply at HIGHER gem level, so you...

    Forgot to mention that the scene with all the cop butterflies trying to smile and all of them doing it in really weird ways was amazing. Like that's a scene I'll remember for years. Cinematically really well done. The dude who played Locke is an A+ creeper.

    I think it's the double switcheroo. The other butterflies are fugitives and just want to protect themselves by establishing them in the human power structure and Murn was just some exiled Butterfly that is betraying them for whatever reason. It may be that neither side is "wrong" but more grey...

    The 3rd prefix will get hard stuck on. Your best bet is to craft prefixes cannot be changed then using a harvest to target the roll you want. This will (possibly) add a 3rd prefix and remove the craft mod so if it doesn't work you'd have to do the craft mod again.

    Early on the "Shape the _____" perks are very good to help you get your atlas rolling. Also anything that flat adds "an additional" to every map is nice. After you hit deep red maps and you're doing bosses you'll be able to reshape a bunch of shit.

    Problem is you can't have Eldritch influence and Conq influence. Hard to pass up some stuff like +1.5 spell/attack crit, +1 curse, etc. Definitely going to be nice for people like summoners who didn't give a shit about any of that.
