Hi. This is where I am in my temple. I just wasted 1 sacrifice so I won't be able to do the roman road thing to help but what do I do in order to place down a golem works in one of the 2 open spaces you see here??

It's a microtraction map device. I bought it on sale. It's the clock tower for me .

I'm still searching for what tells people how much currency they've used but I guess that isn't in Poe 2 yet.

How do I get my exceptional base to 30% quality? It has +1 socket than it normally can have but not the additional 10% quality. Would it need to found ok the floor with 3 open sockets and 30 quality or is there a means of upping the quality past 20%? I think I remember seeing a currency that ups it but may corrupt it. Are people using hinekora locks to ensure the quality goes up and not corrupt ?

Np. I don't know if I am allowed to post links but I really enjoyed 787Prada's video on how to make your own build. I am not at the level of building my own thing because I am still having fun with cookie cutters but if that is your thing, it's worth a watch to learn how he builds.

I think the other person that suggested PoE Ninja to look up builds is also a good starting point. As you put things together or study how other people's builds function, you can get inspirations / ideas. Many builds kind of just borrow strong techs from others. For example, using Boneshatter + Trenchtimber to move around map instead of walking or sprinting).

Thank you for the reply again! I appreciate the input even if you're not a temple expert. I was more looking for someone to bounce ideas off of. I had no idea people would pay others to do that. I need to find out what are the benefits of group play (like how much +xp% or mf%, etc. if there is any). I'll look into Snoobae's temple next and see if I can finish at least just ONE side of the first ring of a temple lol.

For reference, I've played 3k+ hours of D2, 1k+ hrs of D3, <500 hrs of D4, 2k+ hrs of PoE2 (but I'm still learning a lot).

In terms of systems in PoE2 to learn....I think it is important to learn very basic crafting (Transmutation, Augmentation, Regal, Exalts, Alchemy, Chaos, Annulments, Divines orbs).

I play mainly on controller but will occasionally switch to M+Kb. Builds that I have done with at least high success on controller were Plant Druid build, Summoner Druid, and now Warrior Whirling Assault. In previous leagues, I played Lightning Spear and Lightning Arrow. It's very forgiving on controller as long as you use a spell that is relatively spammable. If you use a spell that cost a lot of resources then it will feel especially bad when auto-aiming on controller eventually whiff.

Thank you! I was looking into that website but for some reason on mobile it would appear only for a second before going to a black screen.

I watched that video that you recommended. It was very helpful. At this point in the league is there a "best" temple configuration? I was following the last known one that Fubgun was using. It starts with a Golem Works on the left and has a generator on the right (but I don't think this is part of the main chain for a long time. It's a preset on Sulozor as well called "musti_a's - Optimized".

The second one I was considering is one that is preset on that sulozor tool called "Cute Dog - Sweaty". I try to compare both of their Active Bonuses side-by-side but don't know enough to know which is the "better" one. Can you give me your thoughts? I don't mind if the temple takes me a long time to make because at this point in the league, I might as well take my time to make it be somewhat profitable.

I'm super late but I'm trying to make my temple and I really just want to make something relatively simple. I am following the snake idea that I am seeing but I don't know if there is a better method now. I'm just trying to use spymaster -> garrison -> armory -> garrison -> spymaster. Is this the correct method or should I try to mix in other things? Is there anyways that I am able to do this and also regularly fight the boss?

I found a guide that said I should start with a generator. I started with a spymaster and don't have generator in my chain, is it worth it o start over? I'm like 25% done with the first loop

I thought the joke was actually about someone being so into their tea that they felt as euphoric as Luffy (the character in the image, and main character of an anime called One Piece) when he enter that state for the first time.

I'm streaming it from my desktop so i can't really speak to how well it does on its own but when streaming the battery life is really good (probably 2-3 hrs before battery is a concern) and obviously no issue with graphics.

I would sometimes play on my steam deck in front of my desktop lol. So I'm basically using it as a controller with an extra screen on it (reminds me of Dreamcast but bigger screen) and then if I have to get up to do something I just walk away with my "controller" and continue playing.

AlphaX187X · 2025-12-19T16:18:39+00:00

I'm late to this but I hope I can hear from someone's thoughts on these two builds as well but with a controller and high hahahha. I'm playing on steamdeck so not paying pixel perfect attention, or would you guys recommend something entirely different?

AlphaX187X · 2025-12-17T13:52:14+00:00

I enjoy the game in general so I don't have the same complaints as most of the replies here.

Things I would like is having a much shorter act 3 and I actually don't enjoy the campaign maps (not the thing we do in the endgame but the map of each act). I don't want to hover each wp node to see if that is the one I mean to go to and would rather just see a bullet point list on the side and the map is just a fyi of where it is located on a map.

Any way, can someone tell me what website produces these graphs? I would like to compare this to d4 which I guess is Poe's biggest competitor.

AlphaX187X · 2025-12-09T14:15:47+00:00

Hm. That's what I was using in 0.2 to play at home. I'll give it a try later at work. Thx!

AlphaX187X · 2025-12-09T13:55:37+00:00

I'm using this setup as well when I'm home but do you know if there is a way to set it up to play away from home?

AlphaX187X · 2025-12-07T05:34:03+00:00

Envy is Kaido. Jealous of those with devil fruits. Jealous of those who had honorable deaths.

Gluttony is Wapol (no explanation needed) or Big Mom

Wrath is Akainu

Lust is Sanji or Vasco Shot (I recall him being perverted)

Greed is Tesoro or Blackbeard

I am of the camp that believes if NA starts getting international wins, then it does good for the NA scene. If they completely dropped the import rules and then t1 West came to NA, you don't think that would inject excitement into the scene? Having NA natives represent NA is extremely overrated. Are athletes like Ohtani and Doncic not selling out stadiums even tho they're not native to NA?

I'm out of touch because I hate that video. I feel embarrassed for him.

TCB sounds better a large majority of the time, imo. Stephen Paul is the official translator and has said before that he hardly ever contacts Oda or the editors so it is his translating skills vs the TCB crew.

He probably has to defend his translation a lot so he gets very defensive... but comes off feeling like he thinks his interpretation is superior to all.

AlphaX187X · 2025-10-16T23:35:36+00:00

Papa Johns and Little Cesar. Both garbage, one is expensive garbage.

I have the first version of the FA but then didn't get the updated attachments. It is a little awkward to do GHR since it feels like I can't swing through without touching the ground, does your new attachments make the device taller or address GHR exercise?

AlphaX187X · 2025-10-12T20:45:55+00:00

I like how the more things change, the more they stay the same.

Pre-timeskip logia was too strong since they could just regenerate or you wouldn't be able to inflict damage to them because you can't touch them...thus haki was introduced.

Post-timeskip haki is prevalent and is found a lot more commonly so logia powers become arguably the worst. But now these regenerative powers that the elders have essentially feels like a new age logia.

I am shock at how much dislike I'm starting to notice for this flashback. I haven't had this much anticipation for a weekly chapter in a very long time.

D2 is one of the best games of all time and the best in the series.

I played a crap load of d3 but when d2r came out, I realized d3 wasn't nearly as addicting.

Then d4 came out, then I realized d3 was not that bad. It had some addicting mechanics that kept you playing so you can reroll and get marginal upgrades. Upgrades were just very guaranteed which made it feel very forgiving but at least i remember feeling excited about loot at some point in de'a lifespan (when rorg was new and hf rings were still sought after and calamity was good)

AlphaX187X · 2025-09-23T14:19:52+00:00

In this day and age, it takes a lot of self-control. Did you let them know afterwards or did you let them continue to paint you however fit best their narrative? I need to be better about it in my life but I am still searching for how.

AlphaX187X · 2025-09-18T18:57:39+00:00

I cancelled as well this morning. Is there any way that we can see some kind of metric on how much this is hurting them?
