    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...

    Broken != bugged. This patch is fixing 2 of the remaining bugged ward issues. The cloud gatherer bug was already patched. Next cycle will likely address broken ward issues.

    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...

    Any tips for cleaning an air fryer? We have the standard basket and bucket model. All the holes and slots built into the basket make it a pain in the ass to clean. So, we don't clean it after each use. Or many uses... Now there's crud and grease built up that's only coming up with...

    Slower is fine. I want to say there are ways of accomplishing that while avoid the downside of excessive walking between packs. I stopped playing my Healing Hands - Divine Bolt Paladin because the Divine Bolts were killing all my Lunge targets Also, lower cooldown traversal skills allows for...

    As long as I'm not shield charging into pebbles, I'm pretty happy. They could use a few more ways to invest in cooldown reduction though. Make it traversal only if you want.

    I would still posit that lots of currency doesn't mean complex. However, cost is a valid reason not to participate. Many of my characters, I don't go right to that crafting method. A cheaper "craft" is to buy a fractured base off the market and a stack of essences. Spam it until you get life...

    PoE crafting isn't actually that complex. The majority of them involve factured bases, essence spamming, locking prefix or suffix, benchcraft block, then finish with an aisling slam. The reason people prefer to not participate is because of the amount of expensive RNG and market interaction...

    But the Umbral Blades itself is the falcons? I'm trying to theorize if it's possible to clear with Falcon Strike and its cooldown resetting node that makes the mana cost 70. The only downside, so far, to rogue is the many cooldowns make it difficult to get into a clearing rhythm. I want...

    It is a bit ridiculous how (better?)different the rogue plays compared to the sentinel. It almost feels like the rogue was designed under a different design philosophy. There's quite a few passives that require multiple points to get full effect. Probably not a big difference, but conveys a...

    I know you're exaggerating, but you seem to be describing Headhunter gameplay. I've never been a fan of that either, but not for how fast it gets. I don't like the implicit pressure of having to use the stolen buffs before they expire. I alt tab frequently. Let me try to describe it another...

    Anyone that doesn't enjoy Herald of Ice self-chaining explosions is lying or hasn't tried it. Anyway, that's not the point. The amount of walking between packs is boring and I don't feel like the class I've tried(Sentinel) quite has enough tools to mitigate that.

    Been playing Paladin, mostly because I wanted some blessed hammer action. Is there a class or build that doesn't have such shitty movement skills? The cooldown on movement skills and/or amount of movement speed doesn't keep pace with how fast you can dispose of a pack.

    Been a while since I felt the need for stash space in PoE, so I haven't been watching prices. That also suggests GGG hasn't been abusing, mostly, their monetization model, fwiw. My guess is that $35 is what you should purchase as a bare minimum after demoing PoE. $60 will get most of what you...

    I very much doubt upper management would have let you had stashes for in-game currency even if development hurdles were overcome. It's also worth considering that a fair portion of D4's development issues might stem from bad management decisions(i.e. must be like Lost Ark).

    I run into this issue with a lot of my Sentinel builds where close to a third of the spec points into Lunge feel like a complete waste. Given your only other melee skill has a ~4s cooldown, why not just pick up cooldown recovery on passives and gear and spec into something else? I was...

    For a significant portion of PoE's life, Steam was ultra retarded about patching. Essentially forcing you redownload most if not all of the files touched by a patch.
