I've got a small amount of mtx just collected when they give out free stuff in leagues and events. Every so often I throw it all on one character to see how bad it is all together. I think I have more pets than anything, and awful hats.

I mean, their drop rate was small. You had basically 67:1 odds to get something every 5 minutes. I got very lucky getting 3, but I think most people are going to get 1-2. Assuming 6 hours each day, that would be 144 rolls done if you had the stream on the entire time.

I am glad they are just including poe 1 in 2 for nostalgia, i feel a lot better and understand the announcement more after catching up on yesterdays stream. Totally new systems for all in PoE 2 and the bloat from 1 is gone because it will use PoE 2's new map endgame and combat systems.

Chris Wilson does a really good job of explaining things, wish other devs communicated like these guys.

I thought one of the reasons they baked poe2 into 1 was cause they get to keep 7 years of content like delve etc. I mean they've acknowledged they might have bloat/a bit too many things going on but they're not scrapping everything for poe2 as i understood it. My takeaway was that its gonna be poe1 with a new campaign (essentially its the new campaign that allows them to brand it poe2 instead of patch 4.0) and ascendancies +skillgems having the sockets now and ofcourse some graphic updates

Just to be clear, the new map endgame is for 3.9, not poe 2. It'll BE in 2, but it's releasing in 3.9. So on Dec 13th, we'll have the new atlas and the new endgame.

I dont think anyone used the word "scrap" or get rid of but people on this forum think its PoE 1 with just an option for a new campaign and thats not correct. Its PoE 2 including 1 to keep the communities together (per Johnathan Rogers day 1 stream right after announcement you can hear him use EQ1 and EQ2 as examples) and PoE will be included so people who prefer the older game can play it alongside 2 but using PoE 2's framework (Chris Wilson day 2 stream when Quinn asked wtf is going on)

Just to be clear, the new map endgame is for 3.9, not poe 2. It'll BE in 2, but it's releasing in 3.9. So on Dec 13th, we'll have the new atlas and the new endgame.

Correct but PoE 2 will not use this end game, thats what im talking about. Once PoE 2 drops Chris Wilson himself said a new "map" type of end game is being developed for 2.

Yeah, whats your IGN? Do you need a full setup or what are you looking for?

Pretty interesting he is saying eventually they hope to even include PoE 2's ascendancies into PoE 1. So if this was D2 you could play an Amazon and group in PoE with a shapeshifter which is cool as hell.

No specific gear. I guess anything better than what I have? Or if there was a build enabling item that my witch could do etc.

Tried out Indigon + Enduring Mana Flask. There's definitely some stupid amount of sustain there. I was able to walk around with RF on and still didn't notice my health and mana moving when in combat. One shots are still an issue though as the build can't get excessive amounts of EHP due to picking up mana and flask nodes.

Kinda hurt my wrists too. Mine builds have a lot of abilities to press. Gonna see if I can automate away detonating mines or something, idk.

Something to keep in mind for next league, if they don't nerf it and bows are getting a lot of shit. If I understood Neon, it sounds like Anointing is not going base, yet?


I'm not sure why this guy dropped Militant Faith jewel. It converts 20% mana into 20% life when you are damaged, seems perfect for this build. Unless, I guess you life sustain starts out ratioing your mana sustain compared to your life/mana ehp.

Oh awesome, I missed that. Weird why they would revamp it for 3.9 then again for PoE2 but I guess since its a year away it makes some level of sense.

If they can manage to positively change the Skill tree in the same positive way they changed Skill Gems / Sockets, they will have reached a state of nirvana.

I was considering starting miner or ballista if that looks ok.

I kinda want to see about building an ele hit fire totem chieftain.

So is it going to be bow builds all round next league do you think?

Bows are really fun in poe, not so much for the story but they sing once you hit end game
