    Splitting Steel got clipped by the Sniper's Mark nerf. Probably still fine. Hexblast Mines is fine with that new mastery. Very weird how they decided to compensate various builds for the LMB change. I don't see any changes to Boneshatter. I plan on starting as the Slayer version. Don't know...

    I would add that Storm Brand of Indecision has a minimum threshold to feel good. I like to league start on bare minimum gear, so I was doing Trickster with Singularity and Storm Brand in Kalisa's Grace, that level of gear. This was before Ralakesh became widespread and inflation kicked into...

    They no longer drop, that is correct. You will run the invitation by talking to Kirac after completing the witnessing for a specific invitation. I'm not sure it's fair to count invitations and writs as part of that farming strategy. The only way you're getting writs is by running the...

    Perhaps I missed something? Instead of getting approximately 0.7 invitations per guardian set, you're now getting 1. It's a common tactic to use demand to infer underpriced items. I throw stuff blind into a rotating set of stash tabs. If an item gets immediate response, it gets taken out and...

    https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Standard/JopyM9Otl Learning how to use the trade website is a minigame unto itself. An incredibly unfun and sometime frustrating minigame. I wish I could specify tier of affix instead of explicit values.

    I never actually macro'd detonate. I will if this goes through and a mine build winds up looking interesting. I played Hexblast Mines in 3.20 I think, got my fill then, hasn't been much churn in that area since. LMB was fine for 99% of playthrough. And Hexblast actually covered that 1%...

    If you want a learning experience, the large majority of crafts are done like so: Buy fractured base. Usually the harder to roll affixes are the one you shoot for fractures. Spam essences. Again, if a hard to roll affix is covered by an essence, use that one. Keep spamming until prefixes or...

    You cannot. https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Fracturing_Orb Fracturing Orbs are ridiculously expensive and require 4 affixes. I've never done a craft that requires one, I have no interest in crafting something that starts with an item the market doesn't supply.

    On that particular claw you showed earlier? No, it's already fractured, you can't apply a fracturing orb to a fractured item. Much easier to buy a fractured claw from trade.

    If a significant portion of Bitcoin speculation is due to investors trying to protect themselves from dollar fuckery, can you really say it's decoupled? Honest question, I'm probably wrong. What would the price of Bitcoin be if M1 supply hadn't gone to the moon?

    I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. Do you want to do some crafting with the "new" claw? Crafting in PoE doesn't really work that way. You don't pick rares off the ground as a starting point. I mean, you could, but good luck finding a rare that mirrors the steps you'd take to craft...

    Good game, definitely worth $35. The biggest issue is that the progression of a build and the progression of even just the early endgame are extremely disjointed. Some builds come online fully while playing the campaign. So you're trudging through monoliths, you're aware, even at a...

    Which one should I be benchmarking in hwmonitor? I'm not at home now, I think it has a hotspot for my 7800XT, but I seem to recall "core", "package", and I think "ccd" for the 7800X3D.

    My 7800X3D maxes out at 80C when PoE punishes it during map loading. It maxes out multiple cores for ~5s. I guess shader cache activity unintuitively hits the CPU? I have a peerless assassin 120 on it. A similar setup at gamersnexus maxed out around 75C. When I had similar questions earlier...

    I think that Rive - Healing Hands is one of the better builds Sentinel has atm. How you go about killing shit is pretty good. In addition, I've tried Smite, Throwing Hammer, and direct cast Healing Hands. All suffered from being too squishy. Or, if you abused ward, once you ran out of melee...
