The biggest mistake people usually make is trying to run an atlas currency strategy too soon. You should definitely be focusing on a map completion Atlas until ~90 points and 2 stones. The new graft tree is insane for gearing and gambling is still as strong as ever early for decent upgrades all...

Ground Slam of Earthshaking Bleed Slayer has been working mostly fine for me but you do have to really pay attention to how you are using the buffs she drops. It gets old fast having something that takes so much time, especially since like a lot of other people I don't really love the wave...

This might actually be the best league mechanic theyve released

24 waves is excessive. It would probably be fine for most builds at like ~12 waves

Yo bro shits obvious. I'm the expert now

Its dot capped, so yes

The 33% chance to be fractured is amazing

I haven't had any issues with the league mechanic at all this time around. Seems undertuned if anything to me weirdly

I have never played Slams, decided this league I am going to play Slams. Found this guide and coincidentally this guy is probably the best guide maker in PoE after watching several of his videos. He just says and shows what he needs to say and show for the video, that's it. did a test run and...

Did you use Grok, Claude or ChatGPT?

Actually you know what? I figured it out. A PoE2 dev designed that skill and they accidentally put it in the wrong game.

Sigh, Somatic Shell coulda been so cool. 6 shells maximum kills it. When you have skills like Kinetic Blast, Tornado Shot, etc but then put a hard limit on something like Somatic Shell I just have to wonder.... why?

I'm going bleed ground slam of earthshaking slayer First time ever playing slams

Its something that *shouldn't* ever happen with reasonable economic policy. Its stagflation

Well maybe, but wand skills famously scale off of spell damage and I'm anticipating that's the case with that skill. But yea, we need to see the gem.

You use Somatic Shell to trigger a spell from spellslinger that will then explode the shell. Presumably it's a wand attack.

Spellslinger

This market is already saturated.

My company is using gpt for that aspect of agentic "code review" and they haven't really set it up or tweaked it at all so basically everything copilot tells you to do in your PRs amounts to "Hey this is different, we suggest you revert it" It's kind of hilarious.

Something about the idea of not working this early in my life (I'm 43), makes me feel uneasy, even though my portfolio is strong enough to retire reasonably comfortably.

The bloodlines seem very well thought out. Not overly powerful to the point you'd always want to take them but interesting enough to open up a lot of new build ideas.

Most likely scenario is none of this is real and is all some psychotic script these deranged narcissists came up with for more views

I understand what you're saying but slam skills are ranged hybrids as well. VFoS was even more AoE screen clearing coverage than peak LS and Frostblades. There is no way to make Melee good without Melee skills acting like ranged / AoE skills. Heavy Strike of Trarthus is an insane skill gem...

You're being incredibly pedantic. When it comes to melee there are strike skills and there are slam skills and strike skills have outperformed slam skills for a long, long time

???? Molten Strike, Lightning Strike, Frostblades, Smite And there are warcries that exert strike skills as well. Strike skills have been the kings of melee for a long, long time. Last league was an anomaly for melee.

I'm a little salty about the elementalist golem nerf. Coulda went to 75% instead of 50%. Meanwhile they didn't touch Trickster ES shenanigans and barely nerfed one step ahead

It's Xexx, not only does he like the Chinese slop "storytelling" and animation, he thinks it's superior. He's that guy everyone has run into at some point in their life who thinks Domino's is actually the best pizza there ever was.

Barely nerfed Trickster, Halved the golem node for elementalist. Fuck off GGG

Imagine if they give us a Fan the Flames style prolif for poison in this patch too. Imagine.

Nah, someone gave Jonathon a Lobotomy and let Mark take over directing everything.

I mean, jesus

Money market funds are typically the settlement funds for any brokerage account. If you buy a position in a stock that amount of money is leaving your settlement fund to purchase that stock. At the same time that same amount of money is entering the settlement funds of anyone who was selling the...

Tons of great stuff there but the most interesting node out of all of them to me is Shadowed Blood

Some really, really interesting stuff in that Assassin rework

No, you do know. What I was mildly lampooning is 100% how it has worked for... 10+ years. And now it's being exacerbated by AI and outsourced recruiters and HR reps who are invested in only showing outsourced "talent" and being encouraged to do so.

"There was a bunch of cool stuff added and interesting changes this league and I had a few builds i wanted to try but not having to pickup wisdom scrolls to identify items kinda soured me on the whole experience. I mean... like... what even is the point? Humans are known for hating convenience...

Did it actually take that long to hire a junior system admin because all young people suck and are unqualified or because the resume procurement and hiring process is gated behind unqualified, unnecessary recruiter and HR representatives who get to choose who to send to the actual hiring...

When you guys talk about Punch Princess you're talking about "May I Ask for One Final Thing?" right?
