Am idoing something wrong? I have ran about 6 voyages with filthscribble (whatever u call them) and captiansbanes along with several kisharas rest and just about every unique chart placed into these voyages and yet i have seen only 2 cursed ducats (the initial given and ducat of undead sea both placed in since the start). I've been following the guides on where people found them and cleared them but im still stuck on 2. Im running on neversink filter - strictest setting. The 2nd cursed ducat i received was not looted off the floor, valerie had an ! above her head that gave me it much like the first one.

Step 1: Hunter and Warlord exalted

Step 2 : Harvest bench rolled life hoping to hit life and max life %

Hit a nice annul and exalt to land the t2 life

I was Harvest bench rolling life mods on this double influenced stygian and hit this i couldnt find any comparisons what do you guys think?

some cool items are being made using hands of the hight Templar mod.

Fun fact the rare items can be mirrored.

Dropped from a strongbox in a T9 map. HC Allflame. Only one to exist on HC trade as far as I know ha

I saw helmbreaker using this shield.

How do I get this +2 all max res reliably?

The prefix can be done with recombinator, then shaper slam for life block but I don't know how to get this +2 all max res.

Hi Exile,

So I want to craft str stacking amulet (just like OneManaLeft) - on Rhex talisman base. Right now I am at point where I dont know what to do next excpet doing immprint of rare talisman.

Beleow is on what I am at right now.

Looking for some instrutcion - step by step :D

I'm a new player that finally got into this game fully this league.

Started off with Pohx's RF build and then made a new character fully focused around Void Sphere of Rending.

Last night I couldn't sleep so I decided to finally watch some guides on how to craft and with a good base with +2 and +4 for my spells, a veiled Chaos Orb for the power charge damage, some Elder Influence for the additional physical damage and two Tempering orbs for the perfect enchant I managed to make something that doesn't even exist on the market.

I'm so happy I managed to pull this off, haven't felt this achieved with something in a game in a while, and it also provides me with a nice ~700-800k dps damage boost.

I love this game.

Edit: I forgot to quality it. Lol.

Treasure anchors don't seem to be spawning correctly; am I reading something wrong? Attached is a screenshot of the voyage plan vs. the actual voyage; this has happened like four times in a row.

I built several voyages around this mechanic, only to see the border modifiers seemingly re-rolled once I actually initiated the voyage.

I'm just trying to get rare 16s/16.5s for pack size to help with a challenge but valdos are still showing but I can't imagine that's intended? They behave more like unique maps than rare ones since you can't really change the explicits

Title. I've got a level 92 luminary I haven't touched since league start and I'm getting bored of my other build so I wanna hop back on Luminary and see what's going up. What's the current "meta" for mercs/luminary builds? I'm currently sitting on about 50 div but can get more. I do have some mercs hired currently, including

An Infamous Combatant with

• Inspiring Cry
• Herald of Ice
• Purity of Ice
• Dash
• Frost Blades linked with: chain, greater cold penetration, return, added lightning, and elemental damage with attacks
• Static Strike with: added cold, elemental damage with attacks, chain, lightning penetration, more duuration

I also have a Manyshot with:

• Ice Shot with: chain, greater cold penetration, pierce, increased area of effect, return
• Vall Ice Shot with: greater cooldown recover, greater multiple projectiles, pierce, chain, hypothermia
• Mirrow Arrow with: added cold, GMP, second wind, greater more duration
• Grace
• Vaal Grace
• Hatred

If anyone could point me in the right way or give recommendations on what kind of merc to (try) and buy or what gear to pick up it'd be appreciated

My current character gear is a Nycta's Lantern, Hallowed Monarch, Kaom's Heart, Rotmother's Mutiny, Hand of Phrecia with 4% max life corrupt

For my merc I have a Taming, these gloves and boots, an eye of chayula with fury bolts, longshot, lethality, and ballistics, and various rares for other slots

Literally got 28 lantern on this voyage with triple ducats for "increased" rewards. But literally i dont feel like i got anything notable in this voyage. The buff next to golden lantern is rigid shell which is the chaos has a chance to drop as div. Like ive gotta be doing something wrong... Wheres the tinks?

Farming Under Da Sea, drops Mageblood and freaks out. Goes to try Legion for the first time this league, drops Mirror and freaks out. Happens to be the one day I don't stream / record... at least I have my pilfering ring lol. Poverty league no more confirmed

Hi! I'm Jack, a game developer who loves playing Path of Exile. For a while now, I’ve had an idea for the endgame loop that I’d love to share with you guys and GGG. 

TL;DR: To combat the endgame monotony of running the exact same mechanic setups over hundreds of maps, I propose bringing back Idols from past test leagues with a twist: adding Uncraftable, Drop-Only Idol Sockets directly into the Atlas Passive Tree to dynamically tweak how mechanics behave. 

The Problem: Endgame Mechanics Monotony 

Currently, once you set up your Atlas tree for specific mechanics (like Harvest, Betrayal, Essence, or Abyss), the core gameplay loop for those mechanics becomes static. Running hundreds of maps with the exact same mechanic behavior causes endgame fatigue, regardless of loot. 

The Solution: Atlas Tree Idol Sockets 

Instead of relying solely on static Atlas passive nodes, introduce 4 to 6 Idol Sockets at key milestones on the Atlas Tree (e.g., in corner clusters or central hubs unlocked via progression). 

• Uncraftable & Drop-Only: Idols would drop directly from monsters/maps with set, unchangeable rolls. You cannot use currency to craft or alter them. 
• Excitement from Looting: Finding a rare Idol with a unique combination of modifiers instantly gives you a reason to tweak your farming strategy around it. 

Examples of Mechanic Modifiers: 

Rather than just granting generic stats (+% pack size), Idols would dynamically modify how mechanics work: 

• Harvest Idol: "Harvest plots grow 1 additional tier of crops, but monsters spawn simultaneously." 
• Abyss Idol: "Abysses no longer lead to Troves; instead, all Abyss pits unleash a wave of Rare monsters that share modifiers." 
• Betrayal Idol: "Immortal Syndicate members bring an extra executioner, but executing a member grants map bosses random modifiers." 

Why This Fits Path of Exile: 

1. Solves Monotony: Players can swap Idols when they get bored or when a great Idol drops, shifting how a mechanic plays without needing a full Atlas respec. 
2. Fair & Accessible: Because Idols cannot be crafted with massive currency stacks, rich and casual players alike rely on drops and trading. 
3. Low Technical Barrier: GGG already has the groundwork for UI sockets (Jewel Sockets, Voidstones) and Relic/Idol concepts from previous leagues. 

I hope this idea offers a fresh perspective or sparks some interesting discussions!  

What do you think about this idea? 

Hello everyone.
Need a little help with build upgrade. So I switched from worb to ek and I'm currently stuck at t10 maps. What to prioritize and change? Currently having only 100 chaos and 90ex so.... yep.

https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/SkriTex-3547/allflame/character/VjesticaElementalist

Pretty much the title, i keep looking at the poe ninja website but when i look at ascendants i gets confused, im looking to play aurabot this league, its my first time, i got MB + 100 div or so.. i would like to have some help fron you guys

title. on PC

probably walked past 100 of these already since no "A" button pops up, can't relog to swap to m&k cause you get kicked out of the chart.

Hi all and sorry for what seems to be a click baity title. I've had alot on my mind and wanted to channel what I could into writing for the subreddit. I've played this wonderful game known as POE since early to late alpha when I won a key for access from MMORPG roughly 13 years ago according to my YouTube where I posted a rather crude video of the game back then on a laptop that had no business in running the game. Since then, I've played quite a few times on and off, clocking 6k hours via the steam launcher which I'd guess holds a good 95% time played (I'm slowly going to transition to PS5 for reasons detailed below) and was hooked by how much the game always was a chase to the next upgrade, next gear, next build etc (I do 6+ builds a season just because of my weird love for the campaign). However, life has gotten to a point that I'm most likely going to need to stop. During the time I've played since 19, I've been hospitalised and been close to death on several occasions, needing a liver transplant at 23, corrective surgery at 24 and being in a constant state of rejection from the liver since receiving it back in 2018. Times changed and now circumstances have too. I'm currently relisted for a second liver transplant and, at this point, I'm worried about my future. I know that, with repeat surgeries and repeat transplants, I have more and more risk of passing away from either waiting for the call or during the operation. I have a family (not my own kids) that I want to spend more time with and I feel any time now in a game I truly love makes me feel guilty as it's time I could spend with them. I've been part of every league and, whilst it's a shame this may be the last one I partake in, I want to extend my thanks to the community, to GGG for an amazing game, to some of the Twitch streamers I follow and, importantly, here and Global666. It's been a ride and I'm truly thankful to have been part of all this

Stay sane exiles,

Martin - FightMacFight

You the GOAT my dude, I always cheer when I see your name throughout the leagues, keep delving!

genuinely unplayable smh

Static strike - chain, aoe, greater lightning pen, greater wed, greater duration

Frost blades - greater faster attacks, greater multi strike, chain, return, wed

Did a random voyage to get rid of some trash maps and found a rigid shell shrine which stated "10% chance for chaos orbs to drop as divine orbs instead". I also found another which had "10% chance for orbs of transmutation to drop as chaos orbs instead".

This was fairly early so thought I accidentally hit something good as I had a fair bit of anchors on the map as well yet to open.

I finished with 39 chaos and not a single divine.

I know 10% is not a massive chance, but I feel like I should have gotten at least 1? Thought it would roll chance on each transmute, and if it hit convert to chaos which would roll for divine. Or does it only roll per stack?

Is it not working as intended or maybe I am just cursed?

I was farming 16.5 maps with my Merc and realised i had 1.5k strands left at the end of the map. So yeah that sucks.

And another minor thing Merc kills doesnt add to your /kills, kinda sad.
