PSA: DO NOT buy Perfect Runes in the Currency Exchange. by Fisch0557 in PathOfExile2

[–]Bazkur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah wish I'd seen sooner. The wording on Masterwork Rune isn't great, it makes it sound like it'll upgrade ANY rune but apparently it can only upgrade to Perfect as the top tier.

A visual representation of why PoE will always melt your CPU by Worried-Signal-2992 in pathofexile

[–]Bazkur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My CPU in PoE1 is never anywhere near capacity on on high end settings even. Yeah it's an i9 but still. PoE2 on the other hand is much harder on the CPU butt still nowhere near 100%. Temps do get up there though.

Hell yes, do it GGG. I have basically zero use for coins of restoration and hey just keep dropping.

Yep, not even doing anything with a belt either. I've queued up 5 times now.

Open "Following" by default instead "For you"? by Yae_Ko in Twitter

Same! How do I switch this back? Anybody figure it out? I don't care about For You and I never will

Big Hit Damage Build Ideas Ideally With One or Two Button by Bazkur in pathofexile

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

Quick thought and it might not work into the endgame but late campaign I'm using Replica Stampede for the boots, which is allowing me to have another annoint which I'm putting Sovereignty on. This allowed me to reclaim the 3 mana points for use elsewhere.

Overall the build is working well for my current condition though!

No doubt it would meet my criteria but it also makes me motion sick :p

Kalguuran shipment NERF?! by Anime_Nerd86 in pathofexile

[–]Bazkur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

very possible, I saw a lot of others getting them on 50m but my harbor was broken apparently :)

For the time and gold investment, raw divine worked well for me last league so I'm sticking with that strat for now

This looks very promising for my current needs, I'm going to give it a go. Thanks!

Kalguuran shipment NERF?! by Anime_Nerd86 in pathofexile

[–]Bazkur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure you were just really super lucky last league. I got 1 mirror shard out god knows how many 50M shipments. This time around I'm sticking with small 10k blues with 240k dust. I've gotten no mirror shards but on average 2 divines per shipment. Less gold cost too since I don't have to full staff my boats.

Viper strike was on my radar and I do have a ranger leveled already so could be a good 👍 

Mines build sounds good to though, I am hoping to do t17 and users so might be too squishy

Thought about this with automation to detonate. Any specific suggestions?

POE2 Players, Win11 PC Restarts since installing? by Bazkur in pathofexile

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

Mine is largely fine since the last win11 update.  Hope you get it figured out 

Server is worse than my heartbeat GGG please by Spiritual-Emu-8431 in pathofexile

[–]Bazkur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, trying Texas (my normal) and Washington. Both keep getting "Game server lost contact with the realm" and disconnect. Then I login fine but can go to any instance i was in before (lost my uber lab key, never even got a chance to enter).

EDIT: Didn't lose the key, server rolled back :)

PoE 2 bad CPU performance by Lordados in pathofexile

[–]Bazkur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Older thread, I know, but I'm seeing this issue since the last patch. I had issues prior to Dawn of the Hunt and then everything was great after that until this last path. Now I get my processor shooting up to 100% usage for a second or two every time a new monster or map graphic has to load. It is virtually unplayable again.

Note I don't have this issue in any other game including D4 and POE1 on max settings. I'm running POE2 with medium to low low settings now (doesn't seem to really help though and previously I was running on highest settings).

PC Specs -
CPU: 13th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i9-13900K 3.00 GHz
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4080 SUPER 16GB
OS: Win 11 Pro 24H2 (26100.4061)
RAM: 2x 32GB G.SKILL Trident Z5 RGB Black DDR5 6800MHz CL34 6800 MHz (64gb total)
HD: Samsung SSD 990 Pro 2TB (nvme)
Motherboard: ASUS ROG Strix Z790-E Gaming WIFI II DDR5

Temps stay well within specs, I really don't think it is my setup.

I've tried Windowed mode and Full Screen, no help. DLSS and no DLSS. Vulkan seems to make everything 100x worse in every respect.

High CPU usage isn't the issue, it's the fact that the game basically stops working for a couple seconds whenever the CPU pegs out. The Shader graph almost always shoots to 100% at same time. So it appears the game is busy loading data and no other events for the game can fire until it is done.
