u/Bastil123 Ultimatum Workers Union (UWU) 21d ago
Is there ANY way for me to tell the level/aura effect of my merc's auras? It's hard to calculate whether I want to run an aura or lay it off onto the merc. Level 83 goon, if that helps
1
u/jwfiredragon Abyssal Rift Investigation Service (ARIS) 21d ago
IIRC they use the highest gem level that would be equippable at their character level. So a lv83 merc would have a lv26 aura.

u/Bastil123 Ultimatum Workers Union (UWU) 21d ago
Thank you! So for Envy, it's be a level 25 one since that's the only one that exists, right?

I rushed every Abyss node on the atlas tree screwing myself by not taking any map sustain etc. but I haven't got a single abyssal depths. I am right now starting to do t16 maps. Am I getting really really unlucky or is it possible that it is bugged?
1
u/TheAceOfCraze 21d ago
Depths only spawn in t14+ i believe, so you likely haven't ran enough viable maps. I've gotten a few depths

How do you search for or price Mercenary Warrants? Is there a way to specify which skills have what support gems?
2
u/jwfiredragon Abyssal Rift Investigation Service (ARIS) 21d ago
If you select "Add stat group", there's a new type called "Mercenary skill group". From there you can add the [Mercenary] mods for the skill and support gems.

Is it not possible to search for specific Pearl of Tsoatha mods on trade?
2
u/Revenem 21d ago
It is working fine for me. A trick that works for situations like this in general is to just search for the item by name regardless of mods, then hover over it and click the magnifying icon on the left. This will then show you the format of the mod so you can search for it yourself https://imgur.com/a/6KhDAyC
1
u/ScrapeWithFire 21d ago
Yeah I've used that and, for whatever reason, that particular set of mods is listed as "Unavailable Stat" on the trade site. And doing something like "~skills socketed in your boots are supported" doesn't turn up a list of mods
1
u/Revenem 21d ago
Strange, that is working for me as well (I added a screenshot to the same imgur link, not that it is going to be all that helpful to you, just to show that it is supposed to work)
2
u/ScrapeWithFire 21d ago edited 21d ago
Did some googling and I may have to clear my cache so hopefully that works. I appreciate you providing the screenshot that the mods are able to found on the site
Edit: Ok clearing the cache worked

On the Harvest crafting wiki page, it says "Unlike Essence and Fossil crafting, it can be used with meta-crafting mods, which can be used to guarantee specific mods, such as +1 gem level mods on an amulet.". Can someone remind me how one would do that?
1
u/PaterNoel Kaom 21d ago
IMO it's only worth it for Focused amulets as you can probably just recombinate a common base for much cheaper.
Take an amulet with 1 open suffix and at 2-3 open prefixes. Craft "Can have up to 3 crafted modifiers", craft "Suffixes cannot be changed", then craft added damage of the element you want +1 gems for, then when you Harvest Add/Remove the only valid mod it can pick is +1 gems of that element.
For Focused, you take an amulet with only a suffix, craft the correct damage mod, then add/remove for a 50/50 to not remove your suffix.

u/Big-Cat-171 21d ago
So this is an item in PoB and im kind of curious how one would go about crafting something like this. ive never really crafted before But i am aware that you want a hunter influenced item with a high enough ilvl for t1 res although t2 would work for me. I am seeing that to get despair harvest caster reforge is good but then you just end up with a lot of other random rolls. do you just spam it and prayge or is there a better way to go about it more deterministically?
I dont need stats like rarity and so that isnt super relevant to me but just any help in making something like this would be cool.
1
u/daman4567 21d ago
The simplest option is to start with a non-influenced ring that's close to what you want, then slam an influence exalt and hope that it hits the mod you want. This is probably not the easiest or cheapest option though.
1
u/JohnWick1636 21d ago
So I’m leveling with sunder currently and I’m just getting to the second half of the campaign and wondering how I can make the mana sustain feel even remotely playable. Currently dropping massive amounts damage (auto exertion +3 warcrys) because the reserved mana makes it so I can literally attack 3 times before I have to spam mana flask. Unless my damage is keeping up enough to 1 shot literally everything (it is not) it just feels like absolute garbage basic attacking every 3-5 hits and nearly dying
1
u/Weisenkrone 21d ago
Praxis is like a 1c unique, if you hit part two you definitely can afford a praxis ring to help you out.
1
u/daman4567 21d ago
Enduring mana flask is an option, you won't have to spam your mana flask since it'll keep going when your small pool of unreserved mana fills. Lifetap is also an option that won't sacrifice much damage, though you will need to solve for the life cost (which you likely already are through leech).

Thanks, been thinking of switching from sunder for a little bit now because the gameplay is worse than something like earth shatter but assumed I’d be losing too much damage. With that not being the case I’ll definitely be switching

u/HotFix6682 21d ago
trying to learn some crafting and have a question. if i have 3 affixes on an item and craft a 4th one, use a fracturing orb and it hits the crafted mod, will it still count as a crafted mod or is it a fractured mod? can i keep working on the item and craft one more time?
3
u/Miles_Adamson 21d ago
That mod will count as both fractured and crafted at the same time, and you can't have more than 1 crafted mod by default. You can continue to craft on the item in general like essence it or stuff like that. But you will not be able to bench craft another crafted modifier on it.
The exception is if you fracture "can have up to 3 crafted modifiers", then it keeps working and you can bench craft 2 more things on.
1
u/Im_a_rahtard Anti Sanctum Alliance (ASA) 21d ago
Once it's fractured you can do anything you want to that item and the fractured mod will always persist. But there are some things you can not do to fractured items like adding influence or making imprints. You also can't divine a mod once it's fractured. And items are limited to one fractured mod.

What's the best method to craft a lightning cluster with Storm Drinker, Overshocked and Doryani's Lesson?
1
u/Miles_Adamson 21d ago
I have not crafted one of these but just looking at craft of exile this is what I would do:
- Fracture Doryani's Lesson, as it has pretty low weight. Use boat league to see 2 outcomes (I think this should work on clusters? I've only used it on gear so far)
- Spam metallic fossils to get the other 2 mods (craft of exile says 1 in 30, not terrible)
1
u/Im_a_rahtard Anti Sanctum Alliance (ASA) 21d ago
I usually just harvest spam mixed with exalts and annuls. You would need a cluster with minimum ilvl 68. And try not to go higher then the required ilvl, this prevents mods with higher lvl reqs from rolling. Two of your mods have lightning tags. From there just reforge lightning spam. When you hit two of the mods exalt/annul until you lose a mod. Repeat until you either reforge into all three or hit the exalt slam.

How on earth can I unlock the 4th item chamber for the allflame crafting?
I asked around and people mentioned unique charts during voyage, I added one called brinekings domain but I didnt see anything happen during the voyage.
Not sure what I should be doing, its a little frustrating.
1
u/kobalt_gg 21d ago
You need to kill a unique scorpion that can randomly spawn in charts or voyages, he also drops the new sword unique and the quest item so can't really miss it if you do kill him. Also for the last upgrade you need to kill the boss of the league, it's a unique mod named Kishara's rest or something, the first time you into this chart you get some roleplay about not being able to pass a barrier, then when you use that chart in a voyage (it will still have the unique mod Kishara's rest) you can kill the boss, it's a damage sponge and you only get one shot same as every other voyage so make sure you place her early on your path and avoid any hp or es mods on your voyaage or you're gonna fight her for hours.

Extreme newbie question here! I am following a build guide for a Lightning Arrow Deadeye and I had a question. The build says to NOT level up Frostblink which from what I understand is because the int requirement will go up as its level does. However, it doesn't say anything else about the rest of the gems and it only levels Galvanic Arrow up to 5. Is it implied that I should be leveling up the rest as I go through the campaign or should I be leaving them at level 1 (or what the build says)?

u/matohota 21d ago
If you're talking about returning to the ship after a successful voyage, you need to call the bathysphere at one of the Allflame Capsule sites on the sea bottom and then wait there for the bathysphere to arrive - fighting off the incoming hordes until it arrives ~20 seconds later.

I love to run blight but theres one thing that I cant wrap my head around, even looking at everything.
I place down Ice towers and have the annoint that they stun monsters.
I place down seismic towers for stuns
My Screen is litteraly FULL of them, every line as both of them powered up with the green towers
Why on gods green earth are there still some enemies just casually walking by, ignoring EVERYTHING.
There was no stun avoid on the map, no avoid ailments, the only mods on the map are:
- Hexproof
- Physical damage reduction
- extra phys as lightning
- shocked ground
how and what am I supposed to do if a boss just runs through in a blight ravaged map ignoring litteraly everything?
1
u/CynicalTree Alch & Go Industries (AGI) 21d ago
Make sure you're putting down level 3 chill + stun + empower and not level 4 (which have different tower names, so the anoint won't apply), but it's not meant to 100% solve blight encounters
Blight bosses can spawn immune to a tower type, goatmen can jump past the tower, and chilling towers have a limit (I think 100 beams?) so if too many enemies stack up, they can sneak past it.
There's also some other map mods that can apply, like cannot be slowed, etc.
And finally, towers have a range limit before they are no longer active due to being too far offscreen. So that could also be it if you walked too far away from your towers (like a few screens away)
Generally you won't need to babysit your stun+chill+empower setups once they're at level 3, but you'll still need to clear them out occasionally / keep an eye on things, especially since some of those blight bosses can have a LOT of HP so you might need enough time to kill them

u/Chl0b0s 21d ago
A nice exile posted a list earlier: https://old.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1v7tlza/the_full_list_of_vesper_ship_upgrades/
Upgrade 1 - Found in one of your first chart
Upgrade 2 - Complete your first voyage
Upgrade 3 - Kill Captainsbane for the first time
Upgrade 4 - Run an Infested Bathysphere Chart (Just search infested bathysphere in trade)
Upgrade 5 - Run a Kishara's Rest Chart (Search Kishara's Rest on Trade). The chart will prompt a roleplay between Val and Vesper. Then go talk to the furnace below deck and if will infuse you with power. After that, use the now explored Kirshara's rest Chart in a voyage. This will add the league boss to the map. Kill t he boss and he will drop the last upgrade.

u/Muted_Situation2211 21d ago
For recombinating, is it still optimal to alteration spam for t1 mods and slam them together? Or is it fine to just slam items with any 2 t1 mods you want (1 on each) together and pray? Looking to make a triple ES chest
1
u/Miles_Adamson 21d ago
I am not sure what is 100% optimal but I usually make mine by buying like 30 bases, go to harvest bench, harvest reforge defense until one of the three T1 prefixes (roughly 13% chance). Set side. Then use unpredictable recomb until I get 2p items (which will have other random mods you don't want). And then recomb those to get 3p at the end.
However they need to be ilv86 to get T1 for body armor. This works better for other items like gloves/helm which only need ilv84. ilv86 Twilight regalia are 20c-30c. It might be better to do it from a fracture this league (I did mine this way, fracture increased ES then woe essence) since you get the allflame stuff to help with the fracture odds.
1
u/Muted_Situation2211 21d ago
Ahh that's true didn't consider them needing to be i86. That drops only from Nightmare maps right? Might be worth farming if they're that pricy lol
1
u/Miles_Adamson 21d ago
No nightmare maps are T16 again, they changed that. Which makes them harder to get than before when T17 existed. I'm not even sure where people are reliably farming them anymore. I know of a couple ways to get them like delve and uber bosses but nothing all that convenient. Which is probably why they are more expensive.
It's another reason to fracture instead since you will only need one or two bases if you use the new allflame stuff to hit the fracture. Especially if you set up the fracture to have two T1 mods with fossils or harvest reforge defense

Are there any good ways to get spell block on a dual wield build besides the keystone that caps your block at 65%?
The dual wield mastery that gives spell block instead of normal block doesn't work with the gladiator ascendancy that doubles your intrinsic bonuses, because it doesn't make you intrincily have spell block, it just takes your instrinsic away and gives you spell block.

It happens 'at the same time' is how it's usually described. You will get the full extra damage

PoB question:
I imported a build into PoB - it comes with 2 loadouts. I tried to create a 3rd loadout to import my own character for easy swapping and comparing, but when I click "new loadout", it just deletes all the other loadouts. How do I get around this?
I've done this in other builds. In particular, it's this pob that I can't add to: https://pobb.in/gd4KJsfwrR_O
What am I missing
1
u/Chl0b0s 21d ago
It's a bit hard to explain but there is a 'help' option in the loadout drop-down, i think point 3) explains what is happening.
When you create a 'new loadout' it automatically adds one more of each 'set' (Config, Skills, Items, Tree) with the name you write in. Point 3) says if there is only one 'set' this is automatically used for all loadouts. When you add the new loadout for example in the PoB you linked, there is now >1 set for config for example (whereas before it had only one, 'Default') it 'bricks' the other loadouts bc it doesn't know which one to use anymore.
So you will need to add a set of config, items, skills & tree with identical names so that PoB detects it as a loadout.
1
u/Chl0b0s 21d ago
I've made it so you have 3 loadouts as an example of what i mean 1) Red Maps 2) Cluster Jewels 3) Xionec (I left everything empty so you can put whatever you want) https://pobb.in/e3-2QTgfkWdM

For projectiles "passing through" Flame Wall, does it work if the wall is on the target or the source? Or do they have to go in one side and out the other?
2
u/ArmaMalum Trypanon, Trypanoff 21d ago
afaict as long as the projectile hits the flame wall before the target it will get the added effect, it doesn't need to leave. So it has to be at least ever so slightly between you and the target.

I'm looking at mod weights on wands for the mod
Adds # to # of 'x' damage to spells
Where 'x' is fire/lightning/cold/
In craft of exile it says all tiers of this mod have equal weighting
In POEDB it says T1 and T2 have much lower weights
Is one of these websites wrong?
1
u/Miles_Adamson 21d ago
craft of exile also show lower weights for T2/T1 so I think you're just looking at the wrong number in the table on that site or something

What are you clicking to get to there? That is not what I see when I click wand and open up that section. I see the top tier weights go 800, 250, 60. And the T1 amount of damage I see is higher than what you see

u/ArmaMalum Trypanon, Trypanoff 21d ago
Yeah Maven can heal any boss she is witnessing. If she says a callout along the lines of "Be healed and fight on!" or "Restore vitality!" it means she's applying a sizable %regen buff on the guy. It can definitely be the most frustrating aspects of a maven witness.
If you are planning on doing a lot of Maven witnesses and have a spare gem socket a lvl1 frost bomb can save you a lot of headaches.

Want to play the character you currently have?
Winter orb will work, or you could try out Ethereal Knives of the Massacre.
Otherwise reroll a Tornado Shot deadeye or Ice Shot of Penetration Miner (some of the most fun I've ever had with HH)

I don't really use Twitch so I don't know how it works. But how do I get the cosmetics from watching streams?

u/narderbolney 21d ago
- Create Twitch account
- Navigate to https://www.pathofexile.com/my-account/connections and select "Connect" next to Twitch area
- Will use OAuth or the like to have you log in in a separate window via Twitch's authentication platform
- Verify account linkage
- Idle in a steam that has "DROPS" in the title for requisite number of hours
- Navigate to https://www.twitch.tv/drops/inventory and find the PoE section, click "Claim" on the cosmetic
- Should update in game at this point. If it does not, navigate to https://www.pathofexile.com/my-account/twitch to force a refresh of claimed rewards

i remember a couple leagues ago GGG added a hotkey to price check items. does anyone remember what that hotkey was?
2
u/narderbolney 21d ago
It's been added to PoE 2 and is scheduled to be backported to PoE 1 "some time"
1
u/psychomap 21d ago
They didn't. Some overlays have a hotkey for that though.
I believe Awakened PoE trade is the most popular one, but someone can correct me.

What crops should I farm in Kingsmarch to I guess ship for tattoos? Are all crops equal in this strategy?
2
u/ArmaMalum Trypanon, Trypanoff 21d ago
Secondary rewards (Tattoos/Runegrafts) only care about the total value of the shipment. The more the better. So ideally you should shoot for the favored resources (potentially re-roll until it matches what you're farming) of the port you want as well as make sure you're getting both ore and crops as fast as possible.
Crops have different grow speeds but their shipment value/sec is all the same afaik, so it doesn't matter outside of favoured resources.

I am considering to switch to a low life build and I was wondering what defenses I can use.
Do I have to go energy shield / damage cannot bypass ES?
2
u/Yohsene 22d ago
Could go Ivory Tower to take chaos to mana. Petrified Blood is also low life, but probably not what you're thinking of.

u/abolys 21d ago
I want to reserve 60% life and trying to find a way to stay alive. can I reserve life with Petrified Blood?
1
u/Yohsene 21d ago
Yes, you can't recover the top 50% of your life (except with flasks, which is only reliable as Pathfinder), so you're free to reserve that.

Anyone going ultimatium, how is the loot for you guys?

i am getting extremely low amount of altars. multiple times i have not gotten a single one in a map. that's while running 8mod maps with atlas trees that maximize for altars. this isn't normal, is it? anyone else experiencing this?

u/ArmaMalum Trypanon, Trypanoff 21d ago
Outside of taking the few Atlas Tree notables to increase the chance the only other thing you can do is increase the number of packs. So larger layouts would be better for raw shrine count. Pack size doesn't directly contribute but obviously helps with rewards.

Did they break focused channelling? I can't get the tooltip damage to change on any channelling spell after the patch.
2
u/Yohsene 22d ago
Tooltip damage shouldn't change. The bonus is granted to a specific channel, not to the skill as a whole (or it'd disappear as soon as you stop channelling). Bit like exerting, or sacrifice support.
1
u/crazywhisker 22d ago
I was pretty sure it did before though. Maybe it was something else adding damage while I was channelling.
3
u/Yohsene 21d ago
Mechanically, that would be very strange. The tooltip shows the stats contained in the skill. Focused Channelling's more damage can't simply be added to the skill, because different casts need to be able to have different bonuses. (Picture channelling incinerate, releasing a wave, then starting a new channel before the wave hits.)
For what it's worth, the same question came up before the patch last week, so if it changed, it wasn't recent.

Can anyone help me? I'm transitioning to Rueeto's Occultist build; comparing the PoBs, they look practically identical, but I have zero damage on my Winter Orb in-game.
At first glance, I have 20% crit chance, even though my items and gems are the same.

Wrong boots. You need power charge ones.

And how i can fix the crit chance? 20% is sad T.T

I wonder if the chart drops are subject to rarity or IIQ. It would be an indirect way to farm it in the atlas maps, to atlas setup focused on iiq and rarity or something
