    Apparently trying any form of SST right now was a huge mistake heh. Prices on everything even sorta SST-adjacent are absolutely nuts. I don't think I've ever seen hatred conversion watchers eye's this expensive in my life. Guess we're sticking with my flaccid trinity version until I get bored.

    Quit being a disingenuous baby about shit. Yolo mouse is incorporated in to the game essentially, and was never ever required for play before it was. This is personal preference at best. Trade macros are a crutch for lack of game knowledge. Nothing wrong with people being knew and not...

    On the fattest bosses like kitava or the trio it's quite a lot, like 3-5 per projectile? It's way, way worse vs anything human sized though, and is very random depending on where they move. They can sometimes talk in to a couple extra hits, but I wouldn't count on anything more than a single...

    Finally getting around to trying out spectral helix. Feels pretty fucking miserable during leveling. The delay between attacking and your projectiles actually hitting mobs makes general clear really stilted, and rather deadly sometimes cause stuff is just alive for way longer than you're used...

    It's not about jobifying PoE, it's quite the opposite of that. Unless you're a mega no lifer the best thing you can improve upon in PoE is optimizing the play time you do have. If you can only play a few hours a week it's insanely important that you use that time well, or else you'll never...

    Come on dude, you're smarter than this. Or at least you often claim to be. Being "good" at PoE is largely being good at maximizing the efficiency of your available play time. Saying it's as simple as running your mouse across the items is just ignorant and completely disregards all the time you...

    That's such a hilarious waste of time/effort/clicks lol. Please no one ever do this. If you're not SSF and looking for specific bases just ignore her existence when she pops up and finish your map, that's the only non-detrimental way to interact with her. Unless you're one of those psychos...

    Gwenn is great if you're SSF. The higher ilvl bases and random influences she can hand out are very handy. Complete waste of time in any trade league.

    Diablo II - Resurrected

    His point is still valid though. D2 is not a very good game by any kind of modern objective measure. Base D2/remaster without any access to mods is gonna be a real rude awakening for a lot of people. Still holding out some slim hope they actually let the PD2/PoD guys do their thing and get...

    Yea I'm starting to think I should just move. I've got hardwood floors at least. And I'm willing to just toss my couch since it's an old cheap piece of shit from Ikea anyway. Already threw out all my rugs/blankets/bedding, clothes are all sealed in rubber totes. Next step is get rid of all...

    Anyone ever deal with bed bugs before? Had a friend come through for a few days a month or so ago and apparently deposited them in my place from the grody motel-6 or whatever he stayed at in Kansas on the way out here. Already had an exterminator out and they death-bombed my place, but it...

    I have no zero sympathy for anyone playing hardcore in this game lol. The game just isn't designed for it anymore. The way league content/map mods/rare monster auras can and will stack up make it a complete non-starter for anyone that isn't a complete masochist or needs it to keep their stream...

    I wore a winterheart all the way through my sirus kills and the rest of the endgame I did on the first build. Just macro'd all my flasks as I have for every league otherwise. There's some tiny gaps in uptime here or there on the quicksilver now, but otherwise map density in reds is such that...

    Comics are some of the best ever written. No way this does them justice, but we can at least hope it's well made and they don't miss the point entirely. Odds on them cutting the one-tittied amazon gangs entirely? I give it 30% they are still in the story.

    Hrm I've never had to have a mod to keep my own dudes from walking over traps. It sounds like if their traps are in their only viable path to a location that could be what's doing it? Even friendly caravans and such will avoid stepping on them provided they can move around them - they are...

    Yea all the shards or whatever for the vendors in this mechanic being tradeable just seems like a mistake to me? I don't know positives it even brings to the game, honestly. Are people really saving up stacks of thousands of Rog shards or whatever and trying to bulk sell them?

    SSF is so, so close right now. Fusings are the last thing keeping me from doing it, and that sounds like it's changing with PoE2 anyway? But at the same time the way they merged all uniques in to one mega drop pool feels like a step backwards for having SSF be viable for the general audience of...

    I have no idea what the orb triggers even all are heh. I suppose having freeze immunity on like a granite or something would be nice if it autotriggers on getting frozen? Not sure there's a way to automate my quicksilver that would feel good though, and I want as much uptime as I can get on my...

    I run my same flask macro I always have. There's less charges, but once you're doing like red maps the density is such that it's barely noticeable anymore. Flasks are like 90% uptime instead of 100%, and are weaker in general, but the gameplay is the same for me. I ain't strategically pressing...

    I've had more than a dozen logbooks drop from maps. Are people just not prioritizing the the nodes with +50% logbook drop rate? They should be your first bomb every time if they are available, followed by bombing as many runic skulls as you can. The rewards from the mechanic in maps are...

    Hrm I thought for years they had a flat 20% reduced taken, but now that I dig around I can't find any mention of that anywhere. Wishful thinking maybe? But yea I don't think my totems ever die due to the self-damage. I treat them way more like mines than totems if that makes sense? You run...

    I don't think you particularly even need any chaos res on them. The base totem stats and reduced damage they take is doing just fine currently with no additional chaos res. You re-cast them so often during general mapping that I don't think I've ever had one die from it's self damage before I...

    Yea I never imagined it would work that way but it does heh. You can see it easily if you self cast it, and the shutgun overlap is *nuts* (depending on the size of your target).

    He will throw a ton of prefix/suffix harvest-style rerolls at you, so things like tri-res boots, or a ring, can suddenly become extremely good with a couple hits of 'reroll prefixes 10 times keeping the best outcome' type stuff. There's also quite a bit of just upgrading modifier tiers, so...

    I thought for sure they'd cave immediately on the billion different currencies dropping and having to be picked up. Reminds me so much of metamorph that it seemed obvious it'd get the same treatment, but I guess we just have to shovel a dozen different macguffins in to the stash every map?

    Harvest is the worst thing they ever put in this game, precisely because this is what it has done to people. PoE existed for half a decade before harvest and was great.
