IMO, PoE is not a party friendly game. The amount of preparation prior to league start (of you wanna play "right), get a new layer when you want to play with friends, 'cause build must be "compatible" somehow. We all know the auramancer needed, but, it's hard to level it when no friends can help you, so you need to coordinate hours of play. The speed of the chars need to be the same or near it, all have to have the same mind set, it's all too much work for something that must be FUN. Add the "portals" problem, the "i can run this maps but my friend can't", level of skills, and it all add to the not-fun game when co-op. This season was the first that i tried the "party" campaign running, and while i admit is faster that running solo (for someone that's it's terrible finishing fast the campaign... or maps), it still has many problems and difficulties for new players (like, if you are not in the boss instance when killed, it doesn't count for you, and need to open a new map instance, running it all over again).. This is the biggest problem i got when i try to introduce the game to friends and new players: this is not an easy game to party play, and forget about something like a PUG like any other mmorpg.

I was not the guy doing mf or juiced map farming in the first place, and somehow, this league makes expedition very lucrative for me with Rog + Recombination.

You should definitely reconsider the mirror shard. It's way better to invest that into character power or a strategy so that you can see bigger gains sooner rather than later, you'll be able to invest into more appreciating assets this way. Regardless, I wish you the best of luck this league after that unfortunate league start.

There are plenty of ways to generate currency still (I got 4 raw divs just from boats in the past day) but the traditional "juice maps, kill monsters, get loot" system is mostly dead outside of tile based loot (legion) or T17s. So the floor for comfortable currency farming is just higher/more specialized.

Chaos recipe my dude, you can run blood aqueducts and Tier 1 maps with rogue exiles for a few hours and make 3+ divines. Just pick up unid'd rare items and sell a full set to a vendor for 2c each.

I'm new to the game can you explain the difference between tile based and map based loot strategy?

@aliasKalessin Ай бұрын

if a mechanic shows you a loot symbol over a chest or monsters head, its tile based. It's called thise way because the symbol hovering over the monster is called a tile. Floor based strategies used to be those, that make unmodified monsters drop generic loot in high quantities with IIR/IIQ gear equipped. Floor based loot strategies are mostly discontinued because the stat IIQ (increased item quantity) has been removed from 99% of the former sources.

Moral of the story, only play Sanctum. All the nerfs to currency drop rates to drain life out of group and MF they have made the base game feel like absolute shit.

Hey Sub, and anyone else who can help. I just got this ring from a Reflecting Mist and I feel like I need to make a character around it: Two-Stone Ring -------- +16% to Fire and Lightning Resistances (implicit) -------- Adds 18 to 29 Physical Damage to Attacks 16% reduced Fire Damage -276 to Evasion Rating +101% to Fire Resistance Gain 9 Life per Enemy Killed -------- Mirrored I've done about 30 minutes of research. Never made my own build before, though I've always wanted to. I have about 1k hours in the game. So do I go Chieftain for the Tasilio ascendancy passive (modifiers to fire resistance apply to cold and lightning at 50% value) and then the Fire Mastery mastery (Regenerate 1 Life per second for each 1% Uncapped Fire Resistance) and build around regen? Would armor stacking with The Formless Flame be a good route? It looks like people who go down that path use two replica dreamfeathers and use Smite as their main skill. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

@subtractem Ай бұрын

Hate to break it to you but just 117% fire res on a ring isn't really build enabling. The life regen is nice but if that's your goal you're better off just life/ES stacking on an inquisitor and double dipping the regen stat. It's effectively a single stat item and that stat alone really isn't anything to build around. Even if the regen were doubled I wouldn't find it overly interesting.

@adamn.1294 Ай бұрын

@@subtractem Thanks for the response! I agree that it's not at the "build-enabling" level, but the thought was that with Tasilio, the 117% fire res represents 58% cold and lightning as well, and it gives you a huge bonus for The Formless Flame which synergizes with the "1% increased attack damage per 450 armor" mod on replica dreamfeather. The ring also has doubled T1 added phys for that build, which uses smite, volatility, multistrike, etc. If anything it gives me something to tinker with and hopefully learn more about making builds. Thanks!

@adamn.1294 Ай бұрын

@@subtractem Plugging it into those builds' POBs yielded around just an 8% damage increase, and the effect of armor at such high levels didn't actually increase max phys hit because the ring doesn't have life on it.
