The EK blade placement is way, way tighter than bladefall ever was, and is a much better clear skill in general (especially with a nimis). It's less blades yea, but with them all being exactly on top of you means more explosions per blast should be hitting rather than the weird coverage...

I think energy blade is legit, I just don't wanna try and gear for it on league start

Battlemage vulconus was already good/competitive, the issue largely was bladefall and bladeblast being rather meh. Spellblade being 135% of mainhand is not small either. With return support now you can use EK instead of bladefall (all lingering blades land at your feet after return) and still...

Launch day, still no idea what to roll Chieftan got a last minute buff to -20% fire res if anyone cares I might just yolo going inquis spellblade battlemage something or other? I suck at generic caster/crit trees though so it's gonna be a mess

It gets even better in act3 when

I wonder if they will try and return to Steam or are happy with their own shitty little launcher and not having to pay Steam a cut

.5 for strikes might actually be playable Unless they somehow fix it triggering on leap slam I'm not sure any changes will really matter since it won't actually do what you want it to most of the time and will just leap once uselessly

WHERES MY GODDAMN TAWHOA INFO GGG

I stabbed Astarion to death for trying to bite me, then stabbed his stupid gay vampire dad to death too. You don't have to partake in his buggery at all

Anyone that thinks there isn't some kind of agreement or understanding in place with the big bot crews and Daybreak is smoking some serious copium. There are fully automated farm crews in almost every zone of value on Oakwynd that just flat warp to spawns as they rotate through picks. They run...

She does yea, by the end she's pretty baller in general

Most of her quips and reactions during the entire goblin camp are fuckin great 10/10 did waifu her

That's actually cracked, those are significantly better than the regular base 20 auras.

Trauma on frostbreath builds could be pretty interesting yea You'd have to do a lot of work to overcome the bad attack speed and crit tho

Finally had some time to run a real comp a bit with fighter/cleric/bard It's seriously not okay lol We even ran in to a wizard/bard/cleric comp I assume trying to counter the mega armor fighter but it didn't matter - longbow on the fighter just destroys the enemy wizard if they are trying to kite

Yea PC Gith are hinted at being abandoned/forgotten/not raised in the empire aren't they? Like they were born or grew up in faerun rather than the astral so they don't know most of the gith shit no?

Really warming to the idea of busting out the old inquis vulconus setup with the new spellblade. Getting to double up on battlemage for a weapon with like ~400 added flat phys/fire for EK should be enough damage to scale in to endgame without issue. Also means big herald of ash explosions if...

The more I sit here and look at chieftan the worse it gets. A single +1 curse from an item/tree puts pinnacle bosses at -16% fire res with 0 curse scaling. So with any kind of curse effectiveness, exposure, combustion, scorch, etc, setting enemy fire rest to 0 is actually just straight up...

Kinda liking the look of spellblade. Could take the old inquis vulconus battlemage setup to double dip on huge flat base damage for something like firestorm or EK

Gems are up. 61% less damage on return support. Splitting steel probably 'only' do 20-25m dps now instead of 60m but should be a very easy leaguestart. Dunno if I'd do something like lightning arrow tho https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3410291

Warlock is so weird to even put in to the game in this state. Hellfire goes through walls and can cheese the entirety of hell in complete safety. Class does literally nothing else besides this

Hellfire is just worse fireball, fite me

Warlock is hilariously unplayable

Ending is pretty flaccid - really feels empty compared the rest of the game up until that point. Lot of threads that don't really tie up at all or aren't even mentioned, and there's no epilogue of the aftermath or anything at all. Strongly suspect their decision to launch ahead of Starfield...

Fuck that, rogue starting weapons can't break those barriers. Map is almost unplayable without a way past them, hell you can spawn in some places where you're actually just trapped by them

Yea it's fully up and playable and is quite good still They backed off the paid/grind class unlocks and all classes are available now for everyone so that's at least somewhat encouraging Rogue can't double jump over the boarded up doorways in the ruins map anymore though, game is ruined

Chief is gonna live or die on whether Tawhoa was improved or not. The caster variant is 100% bait. If Tawhoa has a better cooldown for strikes I'll probably go molten strike chief and fail to have enough dps to beat pinnacles

For anyone at end game, I'm not sure if I broke something but:

Yea no reason at all to even attempt it on chieftan anymore. Getting to 100% taken as fire is gonna be real fucking hard now, maybe even impossible?

Yea that's a story event unlock later on.

You could get them nearly instantly in act3 if you know where they are (, but it would be super fucking hard at level 9-10 Gear in general in act3 really starts to ramp up to crazy levels though. I've got a shield on Shadowheart that adds resistance to all physical damage on anyone she heals...

Yea I really hope that's the case, it's just odd to look at how badly everything else got fucked and chieftan is just sitting there nearly unchanged

There's quite a few types of builds that I noticed really don't start getting item support until act3 unfortunately, and those gloves are damn near the end of the game basically. It kinda felt like a sudden deluge of really strong monk/melee specific items hit me in the middle of act3, which I...

Messing with nu-chiefta some in PoB and and it's looking pretty bad, at least for any kind of strike/slam setup. As much as I like the idea of the massive screen clear that having a 7-link molten strike would provide the damage just isn't there. I think the actual way you play it is just go...

Boy does this game really want me to respec Lae to a monk:

It gets way better with one of the various items that adds stat bonuses to offhand etc. I wouldn't do it until way later on though when you have the ability to stack two weapons with improved crit on them - I could see dual wield spam working out okay at that point once you reduce your crit to...

Cannot for the life of me find another fey flower/fey flower essence to make a , and the one I did get is lost to the ages someplace. Checked every vendor in act3 that I can find, no one in the party has it, not in the stash etc, so I guess the end result of this is just gonna be

Anyone in chapter 3 happen to stumble across a merchant or spawn for fey flowers? I accidentally sold my fucking

I had a few crashes using Vulkan but 0 issues so far on DX11, outside some weird soft locks with combat/the UI occasionally
