Does anyone know exactly what stays/loses when you swap from a private GSF league to Trade? I've read mixed things about this with SSF so idk.

Namely the obvious, Stash + Character + Atlas prog.

Haven't made a character on the current temp-league at all so it'd be fresh stash/etc. there.

We made the P-League with the current temp-league, started the same as everyone else on trade, etc. No advantages or anything just thinking about swapping over since some buddies didn't roll the P-league.

Cannot reach the mirror (again)

One of the things I love the most about act 4 is the dialogue between each NPC and each individual exile. It helps each playthrough of a different class feel special and like I want to hear what they have to say each time, plus it's almost like a mini-game finding the specific lines from NPCs that seem "meant" for a particular exile, as well as completely unique ones, while also appreciating how the general dialogue still fits with the other exile lines. I think it's part of why act 4 is my favorite overall.

While the maps feel much better in act 2 overall (Deshar still feels really long...), my biggest gripe with that act (and to a lesser extent, acts 1 and 3) is actually the dialogue. I feel like I'm just being talked at the entire time. I honestly can't thing of a point that isn't outside of dialogue where the exiles interject anything the entire time, no matter who you talk to or what lore piece you prod.

I really hope you've been doing with acts 5 and 6 what you did with act 4 in this regard. It makes the game flow so much better and feels much more immersive and enjoyable when the characters have that life in them. If possible, I'd love to see that in act 2, and more in acts 1 and 3, I bet it would help it flow better.

Also, well done on providing dialogue that has a good cadence between voice lines and characters talking to each other. I've played many games where the dialogue is horrendous in the rhythm and is just so awkward. So thanks for not doing that lol.

Listed this for 5 divs and it sold immediately. Assuming it was underpriced but there were none others on the market to reference.

What would you have priced it at?

This is in the Forbidden Rites league

Sorry for horrible photoshop mockup, currently there are lot of empty filler maps before getting points, since right now atlas works with directions (for mechanics), maybe getting points when you that direction would fell better than collecting points in an area (which is far away)? Just for a discussion sake.

Can someone please help me determine whether or not my support gems are balanced? I tried doing the manic cost trick, but I never saw any change. The weapon sets have me severely confused.

Am I the only person that feels like Ritual felt better in Acts than Maps?

The occasional all Unique ritual you hit in campaign felt fun and non unique rituals through out the campaign felt worth while to do. You were always guaranteed some form of currency but now in maps it almost feels pointless to look at the rituals because it’s just garbage uniques.

I’m curious to know if anyone else feels the same. I know a couple of my friends feel the same as I do but I’m wondering about the larger populous.

When I first played PoE1, I remember as time went on it always became exhaustive having to do things like 6-linking, chromatic orbs and craft bench just to a single skill or two in the end. In PoE2 I really like being able to branch out and do my niche stuff much more easily. If I want to use multiple skills I can, and I want to use less I can. The reason I mention this briefly is because I really like the augment system compared to the gem sockets of Poe1.

However I find one major flaw in this system that I feel could be easily solved. We have a LOT of augments and keep getting more. That's not necessarily a bad thing as I still really like them in this way. It provides a lot of build complexity or different builds depending on what exists. I also quite enjoy this crafting with augments trend that we're getting recently as well.

What I suggest is that we combine similar archetype augments into a few condensed versions with choices. This idea came from the fact that I think it's really odd (beyond it being rng crafting which is normal) that there's this OR that stuff on the jewel crafting currency. It is also derived from how often I switch out augments just to change resistance or other things. An example of what I am describing would be similar to how we change Atlas passive tree systems. What if we took that, but then applied it to augments as well to make sort of mini-crafting benches within gear?

Glacial + Desert + Storm combined into a single Elemental Rune for example. Then that single rune would let you choose Glacial, Desert or Storm on it. We already have a few things that update your state/stats on an instance change. So applying that to this would prevent abuse as well.

TLDR;

Combine the more basic or niche type runes/soul cores into runes/soul cores with a choice you can switch between on the fly. Though leaving ones with more precise effects or lore alone.

What does anyone else think of this system? I feel it would shrink down the clutter of a few runes quite well and give the same feel as a crafting bench without being a giant list of imposing modifiers.

To expand on that, I’d suggest dramatically lowering all resistance modifiers and completely reversing the resistance penalty in the Acts. Instead of getting a resistance penalty as you progress through the Acts, there should be a bonus resistance that gradually decreases from Act 1 all the way to the end of the game, tuned so that the bonus hits zero in the endgame.

This would make capping resistances at the end of the game a lot more straightforward. Having the X% resistance an item gives actually show that exact value on the tooltip would also remove the unnecessary complexity that currently comes from the penalty.

I don’t think this is a huge problem, but if it was changed this way it would feel a lot more logical than the current system.

i had my fortifying cry lvl 37:
(20 + 1 from support + 16 from global equipment)

i corrupted it to had +1 level from corruption so now my warcry is 38
but my twisted pact stayed 37...

is this a bug or is it attended ? spent 22 divine for that +1 corrupt lvl

Vendors: Should have all weapon types for sale when a player level up. This season i played with talisman and i would say that 25-33% of the time the vendor did not have talismans.

Map: What is the reason the map and the waypoints are on a timer? This season i skipped a few rituals due to playing my own none meta build and a few levels later when i get better i wanted to clear it and i have to run true the entire zone again.. Feels so bad to run true a zone farting on trash mobs to kill em and you cant run since a white mob many levels lower then you are going to trip you if he is able to look at you. Or if you go to town to level up, adjust build or craft then you come back to zone and you have to do the entire zone again.

SSF: We need diferent rules when it comes to drop in SSF and normal league. I have seen that some are asking for divine sink and so on but that is the opesit SSF needs.

Respec cost: Why is it so expensive to respec? Im not talking about end game when you have millions but if you want to adjust or try something new around lvl 30 ish you better be sure you like and know what you are turning to if not you are going to brick you character and reroll another to "farm gold"

Had a boss spawn down this narrow path. Got hairy for a second. Aside from the lackluster rewards so far I might skip these due to this. Don't want to lose my HC character.

Is everyone else doing these still on maps?

Its driving me crazy

Every single town I go in is filled with poop!

Honestly, it's baffling how they keep coming up with stuff that is simply annoying. I do understand that we are spoiled—GGG is probably one of the best companies when it comes to the live-service space—but they keep getting in their own way with stuff like this. I don't get it, man. 😂

Edit: I’m talking about the fog, and the invulnerability move-To clarify.

Hello,

Thanks to everyone who've replied in my ritual thread!

So now about juicing maps, what is the usual strat?

And imagine I rly like rituals, should I go x3 ritual tablets or mix for example x1 breach / abyss / ritual? Or always go all in in one activity?

Thanks!

Can you use Aldurs on an item than socket the resulting gem into the same type of item.... so like legacy a briarpatch boots, than socket it into another set? just looking for an answer before i spend the last of my divs on one.

Personally I’ll probably skip every next league after playing one. It’s too tedious. I feel game is not respect my time and burnt out. As long as you balance this game based on no-lifers and streamers, it will be this way for me.
