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

The underdark is part of act1 so clear that first. There's a point down there that leads to act 2 in a similar fashion and it'll give you the same warning about wrapping up

It's grindcore time bitches

They do if you get the war domain, they get per short rest charges for an extra swing

War cleric extra strikes stack too. Beastmaster rangers are just a minion with some okay ranged attacks - the real character is the spider with unlimited webs that don't require concentration. Enemies will never move again

Word of warning: don't have multiple people with counterspell in your party. Having two counterspell reaction boxes pop up hard locks combat for me like 80% of the time and I have to reload a save.

If by 'bosser' you mean buying 50 maven invites to spam for potential profit the answer is still any flavor of mines that you prefer. If you mean a regular character that can also clear pinnacles then there's a shitload of options these days.

They even mentioned during exilecon that they had all these ruthless changes ready last league but didn't do it cause it cause the patch was relatively small and it'd just piss everyone off And now here we are with reddit in full unhinged meltdown mode again, ruthless is the real game, poe1 is...

Some big near-endgame sidequest spoilers:

You don't lose it but you also can't change it's allocation

Am I missing something with warlocks or is the game fucking up? At level 12 Wyll has 1 1st level spell slot, and 3 5th level slots and that's it? So if you want to hex stuff you have to burn 5th level slots to do it? He seemed to be getting spell slots for each level of spells as he leveled up...

A few more random powergaming findings while messing with respecs: Magic missile is completely cracked with all the random sources of added damage that are available. It counts each missile as an individual hit, so random shit like the gloves that add your caster stat to spell damage get added...

Man the vampire crypt is buggy as fuck (fuck you it's not a spoiler of course there's a vampire crypt in this game). There's dirt mounds you can't interact with/dig up, buttons that do nothing (?), and 'resolving' the place doesn't seem to work or update the quest journal at all either?

act3 sidequest spoiler question:

@Grabbit Allworth I was reading some lists of what has changed in BG3 vs tabletop 5E and stumbled in to this build site. Initially I kind of scoffed at your idea of 'i don't allow multiclassing in my games' but holy shit I've changed my mind - this is the gayest shit I've seen in a long time...

RE: druid companions

Few more musings if people want to powergame: Armor is OP as fuck and you should probably take a multiclass level on almost everyone in order to pick up at least medium armor if you're using dex, or full heavy armor if you're not dex. All casters can cast in armor just fine if they are...

There's only the ones down in the forge area that I know, but don't worry about it too much - that stuff gets outclassed almost immediately by the end of act2 or early in act3
