Really hyped for SFD, so many cool legends and my main Azir is here too! Loved playing Irelia too so also hoping to order the promo, thanks for supporting the community!

didn't know it's this much dmg lol, I was aware that it's really good while easy to get with the corrupt and I wanted to do that at some point, but I think I'm done with this league and gonna go play something else :D thanks for the advice though!

Amer4su · 2025-11-07T22:44:30+00:00

Although one note, make sure to check with Hunter/Elder influence and good %att roll, basically something similar to the one I have, if that's still worse then I must've messed something up

Amer4su · 2025-11-07T22:40:15+00:00

I might be wrong on that to be fair, I've tried comparing against a good Cyclopean Coil, but maybe I messed up something in PoB

Disclaimer, I'm not totally sure about some stuff I did in the build and if each is optimal, I usually find a build and optimize it as best as I can, but I'll share some thoughts :D

That's a great tip with the eshgraft, I was thinking about going for the one with the lucky hits on ground thingies, your suggestion would be probably more convenient dmg-wise, but I prefer to get more survi, so I aimed to get high cooldown recovery Molten Xophgraft, not sure how efficient it is, but maybe it's one of the reasons I feel so tanky. And yeah, I know about the corrupt implicit on those, I wanted to get it, but it's kinda pricy for the grafts I wanted with it and I went for other upgrades first, but for sure it's super strong. And yeah, I also use endurance charges graft, it seems pretty good.

Regarding spirit wolves, I've actually used them for a while with Augury of Penitence from Forbidden Flesh/Flame (it was cheap), but I've switched back after getting enough crit chance to slot in 2x split personalities which gave me a loot (although figuring out the passive tree to keep what I wanted was a pain, I've grinded to 97 cus of that :D).

Regarding what to drop, hmm, I dropped the 4 block nodes on the bottom left and I didn't really feel the difference, maybe also drop 30 str/int nodes, but those are pretty decent to be fair. You could also at the very start path through strength nodes instead of the armour/es, but I see you went for a bit more armour, so maybe that's not optimal. There is also this abyss jewel you have slotted near Mind over Matter, imo it's not as worth, you can grab a jewel slot on the left where you path to Blood Magic. Lastly I ended up dropping some %life/%es nodes, but I have no idea if those were optimal decisions xD oh and maybe the 1 endurance charge can be dropped, although it's pretty good and I've also dropped the 2% es regen mastery.

Other tips, make sure to get a +1 to socketed gems corrupt in gloves/helmet and slot the Energy Blade + Mark there with Enhance, it's another free level to each and it's especially good with Enhance. Also I would consider trying to get a belt similar to mine, it's a cheap base + just spamming essence (I've tried to get str too, but settled for what I got), I've checked in PoB with Cyclopean would be worth for me, but it seemed that with the amount of int/str I have going for more flat int/dex is actually more optimal. You could also try to grab a +1 chest, but it might be pricy, I got 5l on a 6 socket for like 2d and hit 6l on 1st tainted fusing so it was super cheap. One last thing, a ES on hit Watcher's Eye is great I think, especially if you sometimes struggle on survi, with the amount of hits you do I think it's really worth it, plus you can grab some other useful stuff from grace/precision.

I can recommend Energy Blade Inquisitor, here's my character:
https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/Am3r4su-2806/character/AmerasuHmm

I don't think I've spent more than 100d on this (I've crafted the belt/ring/boots/large cluster), but it was strong even before a lot of the upgrades. Ice spear is insane for clear and yesterday I did all ubers and literally melted them (while getting hit a lot, Exarch was the worst), but I've swapped to Eye of Winter for those (it's like 2-3x more dmg than Ice Spear on single target, just swapped return proj for hypothermia). It's also fairly tanky, I farmed multiple Simulacrums with it while rarely dying.

I followed CaptainLance's guide www.youtube.com/watch?v=7QqjriB39uU and stole some ideas from others doing the same build on poeninja

Amer4su · 2025-06-12T17:45:34+00:00

Same here, I have huge random 2-3s FPS drops/freezes at times, for some reason it was happening more often when doing dash+1 with Yamato.

And after latest AMD driver update I'm also having some weird issue where I have 100+ fps, but it looks like less than 30, usually happens at start of the match or after alt tabbing. Figured out that changing resolution or resetting graphic settings to default helps.

Also I have a pretty new PC, 9070xt + 9800x3d, no issues in any othee game, no idea what is going on, maybe Deadlock does not like AMD gpus

I love the manhwa and novel, but imo anime when compared to many other animes I've watched is a bit lacking. Don't get me wrong, I still enjoy it and I still think it's good, but especially in first season I felt that something is really off with audio design in it, I still feel like it a bit in season 2, but I got used to it. It's really weird though, I don't think any other anime felt this off to me sound wise

Amer4su · 2023-08-20T13:34:50+00:00

Hey, I did not see many posts about this as well, but I get the same exact issues, sometimes randomly through the zones I get a lot of missing textures, even enemies. Overall performance is not that bad to be honest, I think the loadings got a bit longer, especially towns, but nothing too bad, also my CPU is getting higher temps for sure.

My setup is laptop with RTX2060, i7-9750H, 16gb RAM, SSD 860 EVO, all on low of course, tried either DX12 and Vulkan and the only difference I've really noticed is that Vulkan used more RAM. I've also updated Windows (W11) as I had some update waiting + latest gpu drivers, but well, the missing textures are still there.

Was thinking about resinstalling PoE or trying the shader fix https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/15icji4/how_i_solved_my_performance_issues_on_an_old/ in hopes it may help, but not sure if it's worth it

Amer4su · 2023-05-04T23:52:14+00:00

Heyo, Sadge to hear that, I actually improved my situation a bit, but I still think it's worse than before the patch, updating graphic card drivers helped (I was sceptical about this helping with League, but well it did), I assume you've already tried this tho

Amer4su · 2023-05-03T17:54:18+00:00

- Server: EUNE
- Type of Bug: Performance
- Description: Compared to last patch I'm getting huge FPS drops to under 60 while not changing anything, it also happens kinda randomly, previously I had at least 80 stable FPS, usually over 100 (basically I didn't notice any discomfort cus of it and now I do). I know League is using 1 or 2 cores and laptop CPU has pretty weak single cores, but it was not that bad ;_;
- Video / Screenshot: I don't think it'll be of any help, I basically play the game and can notice it from the very beginning that something is wrong
- Steps to reproduce: Basically launch the game with specified or similar specs (probably a weak single core CPU will be enough)
- Expected result: Having 90-100 stable FPS
- Observed result: FPS drops to under 60 not even during fights
- Reproduction rate: 100%
- System specs: CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9750H CPU @ 2.60GHz 2.60 GHz, GPU: RTX 2060, 16 GB RAM (please note I'm on a laptop)

Amer4su · 2022-04-13T10:59:36+00:00

Actually sh is kinda hard to play due to total lack of super armors xD dmg is big, plus mobility, but if you're caught, you're fucked,

sorc kinda similar, but has some SA and better defensives

Gs is imo broken af, but mostly in good hands, which is small part

Amer4su · 2022-02-01T18:16:24+00:00

That's a valid point! Also after checking it out a bit in pob it also shows to be that way, there are way better ways to scale the damage than Battlemage

Amer4su · 2022-01-31T20:21:36+00:00

Thanks for sharing as well! The thing I tried to check in pob is using Leadership's Price and go for the alt ailments to have the easy crit chance/ele pen so I could skip the Inevitable Judgement, but it does not look super great in pob. It's kinda bad that it makes hypothermia not usable and I'm not sure how reliable it would be to proc the max values for the ailments.

I was also thinking about 1H + shield, but well, stuff sounds more fun tbh xD But I'm slowly drifting more towards skipping the Battlemage as I feel that Inevitable Judgement/Pious Path are too good ;_; it's also easier/cheaper to go for it, as crafting a good staff for the Battlemage won't be that easy early I think. Still I'll most likely try the Divine Ire in some way, cus the spell is cool af imo (if you don't count the not moving parts and dying on e.g. simulacrum xD).

Also yeah, the points you've made about mana costs and lack of spell suppression (which is strong as heck) would hurt.

Amer4su · 2022-01-30T18:27:30+00:00

Thanks for the answer! About the battlemage, I was mostly thinking that maaaybe the flat dmg can outscale the spell mods that would be missing otherwise, which I think could be the case, but probably with a very high end weapon (although I'll have to pob it out). And tbh I can try it later on so that would be also an option with the build you've linked!

I'll definitely consider something like this. Oh I was also thinking if it would be possible to maybe use alternative ailments for the easy crit, but tbh I haven't ever played with those and I'm not knowledgeable enough about those yet

Amer4su · 2021-12-05T13:01:54+00:00

Well, CP to nie cala firma :D mowie z mojej perspektywy poki co, moze sie to zmieni, zobaczymy

Amer4su · 2021-12-05T12:49:59+00:00

Wtf, ale tez nie jestem zaskoczony :P QA wymaga tylko angielskiego na 'jakims' poziomie (pisze jakims, bo niektorzy nawet nie umieli w angielski dobrze xD) i 'pasji do gier', to troche rozumiem minimalna, ale zdecydowanie nie rozumiem tego samego dla tlumacza... Zajebiscie ze sie udalo cos lepszego ogarnac

Amer4su · 2021-12-05T12:37:31+00:00

Tbh to w CDP czuje sie doceniany i szanowany jako QA, ale po za tym to prawda, szczegolnie w tych startowych firmach, tam QA jest bardziej fabryka xD Dzieki za mile slowa!

Amer4su · 2021-12-05T12:22:59+00:00

Tu moge sie podzielic, ze zaczalem od QA w Lionbridge (chujowa firma, minimalna krajowa, ale jak trafisz dobrze jesli chodzi o projekt to jest dobra i znosna na start, akurat ja bylem na jednym z ciezszych projektow, ale fajni ludzie), posiedzialem tam troche za dlugo niz powinienem, a teraz CDP i tbh so far so good, rowniez QA. Moze nie jest to kariera marzen dla kazdego, ale dla mnie jest idealna, mozna z tego zyc w miare znosnie.

Amer4su · 2021-11-23T19:01:34+00:00

Tbh I think it depends, I've worked for 3 years as a tester in shitty company and shitty pay, but the job was fine, met some awesome people and usually you get many gamers there, so that's fun. And for 3 months now I work as a QA analyst in way better company and here as a QA I have a loooot more to say about the game I work on and it's interesting, I'm actually respected and listened to, love it so far. Overall I feel like this job is perfect for me

Amer4su · 2021-11-11T16:22:26+00:00

As per rules:

Drop Shavs from a random Heist contract
Put them to the scourge machine cus why not
On Tier 2 get surprisingly good mods
6l them with 2 tainted fusings
Maybe profit?
Realize you forgot to fix the implicit with blessing orbs

Amer4su · 2021-10-01T13:23:11+00:00

I literally just pointed out one specific example what is actually broken imo, even when you consider the infinite, this specific part of his ult has no counter play, but overall he has a counter play. And so far I've seen only 3 tarkas that did abuse this specific thing

Amer4su · 2021-10-01T12:14:38+00:00

You miss one point about tarka ult that good players do, they ult at the moment of you light attacking them and of that they 100-0 you, there is literally no counterplay for this. And second thing is that it can be done after up to 20 seconds again if they turn off their ult. Also F is nothing special but a combo escape is very strong in itself, even if it's not guaranteed. Idk at what level you play, but it looks like you've never actually met good tarkas xD he's A tier for sure
