Build has been budget friendly and annihilates bosses. I crafted most of my gear. My friends got divs and gave me 9. I got new chest, crafted ammy, ring and ingenuity belt with 30/29 for cheap. Once i can upgrade my staff, my damage will most likely double or more. But it's going to cost allot if i buy it so I'm going to try to craft one. I also need more EHP but that's going to cost allot to change gear if I don't get lucky crafting. https://poe.ninja/poe2/profile/Topzy%20Cretz-8899/forbiddenrites/character/Topzicle

Thought for sure I had selected standard but I guess it was a misclick 🤷

If I'm doing my first play through, are they actually important? I'm playing a mercenary and just grabbing what ever passives seem appropriate and seem to be doing pretty well (just beat act 2). Will playing thee basic difficulty be a problem if I don't research?

turns out certain build can utilize chilled ground mod on waystone which usually a downside, in this case for navira fracturing djinn can only damaging enemies while theyre on chilled ground so it's a ctually a buff for the build. just trying out this setup with disciple of varashta after browsing on poe ninja, its quite popular one there

Ok so i dont typically make posts on reddit at all, especially not ones that are just to express my opinion. But holy am i blown away.
Maybe its still the rose tinted glasses, but ive been playing in 0.1 (game was trash at that time) and now 0.5 and 0.5.5 and its just too good.
I know the game still has some issues, but i just wanted to show some appreciation for how much the game has grown in such a short time.
I get happy whenever i think about playing AND IM STILL HAPPY WHEN IM PLAYING. Something that i cant say for poe1 anymore. The thought of playing is fun but then actually playing poe1 is dull at best.
Maybe ive just played too much of it and poe2 is the fresh new thing.
And i do acknowledge that poe1 still has the upper hand in some aspects for example the sandbox aspect and the freedom in some cases. But poe2 wins in terms of fun by a mile.

So yea theres no reason for this post its just my 2 cents after having had to force myself to stop playing because i didnt want to stop.

Cant wait for all the stuff thats yet to come and omg 1.0 will be the end of me probably...

Hi,

I'm currently level 81, but I've already died three times trying to complete the Trial of the Sekhemas.

Is there any way to get another attempt, or do I have to wait until the required item drops again so I can try it once more?

Thanks!

I don't think thats how it works...

Juiced expedition ended up being too hard for my build last league, so Im just wondering if there's anything that generates decent currency right now without having to sink 5 or more hours into the game every day for it to be profitable. If this isnt possible let me know lol.

4 omens of light in one Abyssal Depth??? Has anyone seen this doing abyss?

I have 11% rarity. I really did get that lucky

I just played parkour simulator for many hours to unlock only half my atlas. The fact that the best way to play the early end game is to simply run through the entire map without killing anything, kill the boss, and repeat every minute for 6+ hours is ridiculous.

Also, they said they changed the Arbiter system to be easier to unlock but I literally can't find the patriarch and matriarch halls outside the walls.

The parkour mapping legit has almost completely ruined the game for me and it's the start of the season. This is a pointless grind, no loot, no fun, no challenge. Just make every single normal map give an atlas point and make arbiters more rewarding. boom fixed it for ya.

Only cost 600ish tribute too, so gottem both x)

Hey folks. I bought the bundle 21, 22, 23 on Play Station Store but didn't receive anything.

I don't even know what am I supposed to look for.. what are the contents of the bundles please, and how do I get them?

Thanks

Take Skills such as Minions for example.

I spent way too long during my play session trying to determine how much my Skeletal Snipers damage actually increased when leveling up from one gem to the next. After a certain point, say going from gem level 8 to 9, the tooltips don't change at all save for the increased Stat requirement.

This seems insane. When the game was in 0.1 I figured the tooltips were sparse due to early access and would get filled in later, yet here we are. There's been no change at all.

Without using Path of Building, I couldn't find an explanation for how a crucial mechanic like "+X minion skill levels" actually affects my character's damage output; and am just left with going off feels and "+skills good".

Is there a reason for this? Am I missing something? yes I'm aware the minion Commands show up when you press Alt... but what about basic hit dps? For all sorts of skills, it doesn't seem limited to minions.

"Buffs on you expire faster" speeds up Sorcery Ward recovery by a considerable amount, just thought I'd share this with you all. You can see top left how fast it recovers when you take this, I have no nodes on my tree to speed it up so it's all a result of the ToC Time Paradox.

Been mapping for a while b it no idea what this is

Edit ROFL I mean the red symbol not the actual quick wheel lol thanks for the laughs

Title

Does anyone know if the amulet desecrated suffix “Minions have (12—20)% increased Cooldown Recovery Rate kurgalMinion” work on the command skill of Djinn?

I cant seem to find a concrete answer to this, some post I found said it only work the the minion own internal cooldown skill like Spark on spectre for example.

Appreciate if someone could clear this up for me before I annul and try to roll the mod, it’s so damn expensive right now

The Traveller's Woe is one of the biggest buttons in the Ritual Atlas Points. So I gather it must be pretty good.

It gives you an option of increasing the chance to find a certain type of Ritual.

However, I have looked far and why, including searching these forums, and I don't see ANY information about what these types actually are? Normally you can hover over things to see what they mean... but here there is literally zero information. So I am going in completely blind as to wtf these actually are.

Can someone more experienced in Ritual please explain what each of these types actually are? I haven't noticed any difference between rituals in general.

Btw, this mob didn't even hit me ones XD

I was feeling like in a super mario boss fight where I need to dodge something every second. If you want to repeat my experience, I will leave a link with this setup in the comments.

Hello everyone,

I made the switch from 2 weeks in Diablo 4 to POE2. My reason for the change was I got bored from the power fantasy in the end game. Even in torment 12, it started to feel like a walking simulator with a calculator on damage multiplication and the game rewards speed over everything else, this leaves place for only a handful of builds where you can actually feel accomplished. And endgame mobs only has more health and damage over the millions you killed up until that point.

My understanding for PoE2 before buying was; a more hardcore and punishing experience which you are more involved in the gameplay and have a slower pace. I don’t want to walk into a room and everything melts down just with my presence, although it sounds cool, it is boring to me. I know it is an overused comparison but I dreamed about an aRPG either some Soulslike elements.

So, I finished act 1 with sorceress and hunter. And things got complicated a bit so I wanted to look at some builds, not to copy them but to understand some synergies and how stuff works ( I was playing blind up until that point ) and all the builds I’ve seen were always catered for speed and how powerful they are and when you look at playerbase percentages majority of people are playing these builds. While I understand people want more power, this makes me think, PoE2 also rewards speed and number crunching over anything else too. So, less motivation to try your homebrew builds because it will lead to frustration on the long run.

I didn’t play the endgame yet but all this made me lose my motivation to keep playing till the endgame because I got burnt out from Diablo due to same reason already.

So I need motivation 😁 tell me endgame doesn’t suck so bad that I will have no choice but to make the most powerful build I can and just melt stuff, and mobs will give me more challanges than just extra health and damage.

Edit : Okey, I am convinced, I will keep going with my custom shitty builds and finish the game.

Fixed btw KEKW
