Definitely shouldn't have read her conversations without her permission. Neither party trusts the other and it's going to be hard to come back from that. Maybe you can be honest about that as proof that you want the marriage to work. Otherwise, you would have just served her papers. I do...

Response to bolded question: pretty much. The time need not be so concrete. What needs to exist is that your brain can subconsciously make the time investment pseudo tangible whilst doing boring shit. Let's take the alteration spamming example. Are alts expensive this league? Did Mathil...

Mapping is the only thing that should be allowed to take an indeterminate amount of time. How many maps until my next exalt? Who knows, having fun blowing shit up, progressing atlas, picking shit up off the ground. How many alterations until I hit level 20 CoC support? How many tells until...

The stance is known, reinforced in yesterday's podcast. Since when has that stopped a bunch of nerds on the internet from talking about it? I continue playing in spite of trade and crafting. I think that's bad for the game if it ever gets some real competition because I doubt that competition...

When the game relies on third-party tools for core gameplay experience, that makes it harder for GGG to justify the current state of systems that depend directly on said tools.

I find that even when not deep in the build theory crafting process, essentially done with the league, something else will distract me from work. Usually the something else is nebulous and doesn't distract as severely, so it's easy to scapegoat poe. Some day, maybe, I'll become that uber...

I agree with under one mutual condition: the players being alienated and the developers doing said alienation are explicitly communicative of what's happening. A lot of people on Reddit getting implicitly told to fuck off and they aren't getting the message. I'm not sure I would lump most...

That is the whitest white person post I've read in a while.

Aggressive eyebrows.

What's your satisfying method for obtaining items that isn't fouled by trade interactions and/or RNG?

Poet's Pen with Unearth - Bodyswap is still a build you can do. It's actually more viable, in some respects, now because you can Bodyswap monsters in addition to corpses. However, I doubt the changes to dual wielding Poet's Pen plus the power creep of content itself would make it viable...

Harvest add/remove?

I don't understand what a cavernous vagina has to do with chainsaws.

Right, those stupid triggers that only work on flasks they want you to use preemptively. I finally have enough instilling orbs to fuck around with some triggers. That's another system that needs some refinement.

How many stacks of Indigon are you going to maintain, where is that mana going to come from(on a boss fight at that), and how are those stacks not going to prevent your Mjolner trigger skill?

Can you react to being unexpectedly frozen in a way that doesn't seriously jeopardize your character? I've seen a lot of builds going out of their way to get ailment immunity because the premise of reacting to freeze is fundamentally flawed. I'll be honest, that's how I handle bleeding and...

Best part of this league: 2+ weeks into the league and reddit is still in constant bitchfest. Some real schadenfreude to be enjoyed here. Worst part of this league: there's some real issues with the game(flasks and mana mainly) and I fear that the above will give GGG reason to not treat valid...

I'm assuming he mistyped, as BV with BB is a mechanically dead combination. BF with BB might be as well since BB lost sizeable chunk of radius and might not overlap that much.

So, what's the interesting part of the skill without the stun pulse? Maybe with a ton of attack speed, you can stack a bunch of trauma and reliably trigger some CWDT(which you'll pay somehow...)? I wouldn't discount the stun pulse. Supposedly it can chain itself.

When the devs admit stun is fucky, and that ability relies on stun, why would you want to play that skill?

Ziz and Steelmage league started with that build and put out build guides, so a bunch of people are aping them. That is not say it isn't a good idea. Just keep in mind that if you see a bunch of people copying a few content creators, it isn't hundreds of people all see this obvious idea that...

Really sucks to retire a build because of performance reasons. Has anyone else had issues with Elemental Hit? No MTX. I'm not actually sure if performance was worse, just the consequences of not being able to accurately aim a barrage of projectiles is much greater compared to tossing mines...

Your internet speeds have fuckall to do with it. They implemented texture streaming and quite poorly at that. Commonly used textures or even textures it can know for certain are going to be used are now getting dynamically unloaded to make room for the way too many core assets. Doing a map...

I've been leveling up a Deadeye to try Ele Hit - Barrage + Sniper's Mark - Spellslinger. That's right, it's not completely dead, but it's relegated to very dusty niches. Also, not above mockery by GGG. I believe it was posted in this thread that they were reverting Spellslinger trigger...

No, I don't. I was more pointing out that it is a complex system, there could be many factors at play, and I would hesitate before draw absolute sureties from it.

Or that the demand for Rog and Gwennen currencies are so low that people don't even bother selling them. That said, there are people selling 1 alch uniques, so...

I was checking market prices this morning to see if it was worth it to do exactly that. The sample size indicated that no, people are not doing that with Rog and Gwennen. There does seem to be a market for Dannig and Tujen currency, unsuprisingly.

Forbidden Taste with trigger on savage hit is the typical setup.

Build-enabling uniques. It's really fascinating(and disturbing from a longterm perspective) just how much the game relies on the inherent ubiquity of everything being tradeable. Think of the builds, items, and content you couldn't do or really struggle to even do once in a league without...

And let me try to address a typical response. If crafting gear not for your character(i.e. selling it to others) becomes a non-insignificant way to advance your character(i.e. you use your proceeds to then buy the gear you need), said crafting system is broken. The only reason that's...

Rog feels like all their other crafting(except OG Harvest) activities. Time to success is unknown, so it's very hard for your subconscious to trick itself into thinking it's worth your time in a per-interaction unit. This problem plagues trading too(how many people am I going to have to...

https://poedb.tw/us/Instilling_Orb#EnchantInstillingOrb Use on travel skill maybe. I never put my quicksilver in my flask macro, got used to pushing it manually between packs.

"You know, I've got too many of these Heat, Staunching, and Warding beast crafts" said no one ever. I really hope they didn't design those orbs, which ended up obfuscating QoL, so that they maintained price longer into the league.

Disappointing if true. A lot of missteps in this flask rework.

SST is a good starter, no need to wait.

Unrelated: Instilling Orbs are mega gay. I'll give credit to those people that predicted this. I decided to wait, but they were 100% correct. Getting the right prefix on a flask is annoying. If you want a non-Beastcraft suffix, you can easily be into yellow or even red tier maps before your...

If you don't find killing your enemies by jizzing blood all over them interesting, what builds have you been playing? I keep hoping they introduce a white MTX for Exsanguinate.

I'm about ready to flood the market with my Gwennen and Rog currency. Gwennen seems worthless except for achievements. Rog, is probably worthwhile. But he desperately needs the Ritual window filter. Show me only the rares my filter would and I'll "craft" on those.

Yeah, I tried forbidden rite with mines. The single target was promising. Clear was bad for the reasons you listed. I tried Frozen Orb too. Stuff snipers mark, hydrosphere, and flame wall on an arcanist brand and the single target is quite stupid. The clear was lacking though. I don't know if...
