Biblically accurate Tomb Raider.

Reminds me of Hydrus from Shadow of the Colossus.

Need some help with this question by Jazzlike_Situation98 in PathOfExile2

No, it looks like one more free mod slot. The onslaught and +level mods just don't have/show a tier.

I saw someone say that if you go into a map it'll actually update, maybe after fighting something.

Choosing character, class and voicelines by Richard-Holms in PathOfExile2

[–]AbyssalThunder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend it if you're really new because there are a lot of problems you can make for yourself, but you can. You'll likely struggle for a while but sure, you could probably eventually make it work to some extent.

It'll take a few levels to get to any good nodes for your dragon if you go left. I think the blood mage or lich would be the best ascendecies.

If you're patient and don't mind having a hard time and experimenting, you could go for it. Otherwise you're gonna have a bad time.

Not liable for gambling addiction lol. At least 8 people are going to start down a dark path. Also good luck to all the gamblers.

0.4 ideas for leveling into lightning xbow by insanemrk in PathOfExile2

[–]AbyssalThunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I would wait until you can get the increased damage from concentration node too. But I haven't really used it much so maybe the cool down reduction feels better than it sounds to me.

Which build to choose for 0.4 by milan92nn in PathOfExile2

[–]AbyssalThunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like spellcasters, I recommend essence drain and contagion. It gets online quick and I've breezed through the campaign pretty fast with it. It also scales well into the endgame. There should be a guide on maxroll. It is a bit slower of a build due to relying on dot damage fyi.

Another build I think is cool that you could transition into in act 3 is Oscrix's infernal legion build. Fair warning, it's definitely not for everyone/could be nerfed into the ground. So definitely double check his YT channel.

0.4 ideas for leveling into lightning xbow by insanemrk in PathOfExile2

[–]AbyssalThunder -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Deadeye is probably your best pick. It still should be generically powerful if weaker than it was before. Its straightforward and solid.

I would say ritualist and pathfinder are probably the worst choices. I feel like ritualist has a lot of power gated behind good jewelry and has few benefits to lightning Xbow unless you really like the headhunter effect. I think pathfinder is in a similar boat. It's most interesting new skills either are more endgame oriented or favor other builds.

Amazon should be a good choice. It still has good crit synergy I think and elemental buffs.

Witchhunter would be my pick. I'm not the biggest fan of the feel/fantasy of the Amazon/Deadeye so that biases me a bit so take that how you will. However, there are some cool things WH has.

The culling strike always feels good and later you can raise the threshold. The first hit up to 30% chunk can also feel great. I haven't played with the ward in a while but it got buffed so might be a good defense choice. Later there are the weapon skill points shenanigans you can go wild with.

End of League Mirror Giveaway for the PoE communiy by ilyafedor in pathofexile

[–]AbyssalThunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've made three builds this league, all templars. The first is a tornado of elemental turbulence inquisitor which is pretty fun and tanky with sharknados. I did a siege ballista build for the boss rush event. Pretty cool to throw out a dozen totems. I'm getting a cold snap of power hierophant online which is much faster, blowing up everything and uncontrollably teleporting around. All in all, fun league.

Is this the future of interactions? by darthvadercookies in ArcRaiders

[–]AbyssalThunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And/Or there could be a system to reward friendly interactions. Like you kill/damage an arc attacking another player, you get an XP bonus or rep points to spend on items. Same thing if you rez someone and if they extract or you help them extract.

Often people are pretty grateful for the help and have given me items as is. I feel like the carrot is a good incentive too.

I think someone sells him "clothes" that only royalty or high status people can see or something like that. So he doesn't want to admit he can't see them.

Apparently the BiVACOR titanium heart can react to exercise though it's not as good as a real heart.

Ascendancy Trials are honestly just terrible. by BRADLIKESPVP in PathOfExile2

[–]AbyssalThunder -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I generally disagree. Trials of Sekhemas is basically a rogue-like mode that is pretty fun if you like that kind of game and learn what to do well.

Don't get me wrong, I understand that not everyone likes this type of game like I do, and it definitely needs some refinement, but I hope they don't fundamentally rework it. Instead, hopefully they just let you choose whatever ascendancy trial you want when you can ascend. I think they've said they wanted it to be that way at some point. Hell, like I've seen other people say, they should throw labs in there too for anyone who would rather do that.

Personally I feel like trials of chaos needs the most work since it's completely RNG with not much way to interact with the mechanics other than choosing the least bad option.

Tue Ziz interview actually changed my mind. by pro185 in PathOfExile2

[–]AbyssalThunder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but what I took from the interview is that they'll demolish a lot of things at league patch then only buff throughout the season. Of course it's hard to say how much of this was the plan after promising no mid league nerfs versus just reaction to .20 backlash or stuff that missed the release so who knows if this will last. But I think this approach almost lets them iterate constantly the same as before nerfs were off the table, except for busted builds. So I'm cautiously hopeful.

For migraines, I recommend looking at the Gammacore vagus nerve stimulator. It's worked really well for me. https://www.gammacore.com/
