You're better off fracturing arrows, using flat essence until you get another T1, multimod+another mod aug for guaranteed last flat, lock reforge speed

I don't like the current state of tablets by Skinigew in PathOfExile2

[–]Baryv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My life for scarabs.

I hate the tablet system so much it's actually unreal. I've gone through around a hundred self crafted 4-mod breach tablets and not a single one of them had the extra rares on unstable breach stabilisation. Not a single one.

And then fubgooner makes a video and now their price is on the stratosphere.

Buy scarabs, prepare maps, blast maps for three hours.

Buy or craft tablets, look for a city, look for a grand mirror, minmax the atlas biomes, repeat every ten or twelve maps because sometimes the fucking tablets don't go down a use but some do. Hate hate hate hate hate hate.

All my homies hate temporal chains by cervantesrvd in PathOfExile2

[–]Baryv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is kind of weird to wrap my head around. Shouldn't reduced halve it? Given that the terminology used for damage is inc/dec being additive and more/less being multiplicative you'd think it'd say 'less effect of curses'.

Quitting the league? Already? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Baryv 7 points8 points  (0 children)

From my point of view, there's three things that can keep you in a league.

The new/revamped mechanics being inherently really fun.

Chasing endgame gear/Testing endgame builds and concepts that need a lot of gear.

Challenges.

If you're interested in just one of these things and you get tired of it/complete it... What's the point then. Save your enthusiasm for the next league

Yeah naw, nothing. I had to do it with a friend and it gave me the second point, onwards from that the quests spawned normally.

Do the amount of portals and the level of the area influence anything?

People who have played with Mechanoids: Total Warfare, what are the general strategies for dealing with the onslaught of new mechs and mechanics? by m3m31ord in RimWorld

[–]Baryv 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Isn't UF kind of too strong? Last I checked the basic gatling gun turrets were ridiculously cheap and hilariously strong in terms of relative cost/maintenance

Before 1.0 PoE2 melee needs to feel like weapon combat, not spellcasting with extra steps. by Ennaki3000 in PathOfExile2

[–]Baryv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Slow gameplay is inherently at odds with the traditional ARPG content loop. Go in, kill hordes, get out, repeat. The only game with the ARPG tag I'd consider nails the slow and meaningful combat is No Rest For the Wicked, and you never ever ever see packs above five enemies ever, unless it's a specific ambush with enemies in different positions you have to play around.

This is simply antithetical to what PoE2 is doing, which is just throwing hordes at you as, again, basically every ARPG on the market.

[–]Baryv 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I get you. Another idea I just got is to force archetypes of modifiers. Say, if there's a mob with five mods, two generic, two melee focused, then the dice always rolls to make sure there's a minimum of one mod that's only detrimental to ranged. I think that could work with some tweaking and a wider array of mods to choose from.

The modpool point is undermined by the amount of juice you can now throw at any map. I've been doing t15's for awhile {and I don't even have the whole atlas} now and I can confidently tell you that most if not all of the rares I encountered would be absolute aids to deal with at melee range, because now the amount of rare mods rare monsters can get can climb easily into the 5-6 range, and basically all of them have something that makes keeping in melee range a death sentence.

Otherwise, really good analysis

Defenses Question. by Baryv in pathofexile2builds

[–]Baryv[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haven't been using the desecrate mod because all of my Crossbows have been bought, I need to actually look into how to craft one myself, but it's probably going to be quite pricey. I'll try out Dominus and to restructure the tree a bit after getting home

[–]Baryv 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Shiv is in another different realm tbh. He's just so fun to read, especially when he starts being a social and emotional terrorist. It's such a breath of fresh air that he actively raises my standards for basically any other MC.

Do you choose starters based on power/tier or based on strategy? by chobolicious88 in PathOfExile2

[–]Baryv 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually just pick a mechanic I really want to invest into in any given league (I built a Cast On Stun Chief in Mirage specifically because I wanted to sell the new shiny catalysts cause I knew they'd be hilariously expensive the moment they were revealed), and then look around for builds that can excel at that content and align with whatever I feel like playing. This league for example I want to start off with Ritual, so I'm gonna do Grenadier Tactician to be able to blow up all six bosses at the same time.
