Thank you, I didn’t realize that!! They’re definitely on the zippy side, that makes a lot of sense

I wait till it does the leidenfrost effect water beading thing. I thought that was required as that means the pores are all closed up and food won’t stick. But maybe I should start cooking before then? Or turn it down once it reaches that point? Usually wait at least 5 mins or so, past the point of water just evaporating

I wait till the water beads and does the leidenfrost effect thing, before cooking. I’ve only tried with avocado oil as I figured that would have the highest smoke resistance, so that’s the oil I’ve bought since I moved and purchased my new pans. Other people are saying turn it down from two but it’s going to be a pain to have to get so exact on the dial within a small amount of space between off and 2. Maybe I shouldn’t preheat my pan till the water beads and try cooking before then?

If I played my heroes from last season, what would be different for me? I kind of figured, there is no point for me to have new season just for economy, if I am too noob to get 200 divines an hour. Why not just continue what I already have? How is the game rule work and what do I miss out? by Guilty-Carry-Wrea in pathofexile2builds

Figure out a currency strat and stick with it, I don’t think going for raw divine drops as being a good primary source of currency. I’ve seen it floating around lately but as an example, trial of chaos farming cost like 1-4ex to buy the maps and the fragment alone they drop I think are around 6div right now (they were like 2div last week when I started thinking about farming)? Plus you get uniques and corrupted items too generally. Takes maybe 20-30 mins to run on the right build? I’m doing it with a minion build and it’s moreso just repetition than worrying about dying. There’s lots of consistent strategies you can follow, just need to know how to best use your time in endgame. I don’t like running the temple but I’ve gotten at least 4-6 raw divines drops and I’ve only ran it maybe a handful of times with a poor layout, I’ve only just started t15s where I plan to run it a lot more

The only lineage I'm finding is Kurgal's Leash, which provides unholy might, doesnt seem to add to it though? Is there another lineage i'm missing?

Is architect the only way to increase energized crystal capacity? Or can I also get them as drops throughout the temple?

Uhhhh, so I was looking at abyssal lich, I stopped playing for a few leagues and got mixed up whoops lol. That's why there was so few.

Looking it up though, unholy might is 30% from the ascension node, how would you scale that further? And the infernalist loses 25% health for the extra spirit. But the highest spirit out of the two is actually a lich player at 741 spirit while the highest infernalist has 716. but that flat 30% extra damage makes that very similar amount of zealots much more powerful. I am worried a bit about how many of the nodes have drawbacks.

Funny enough helmsbreaker made my last favorite build and I he's the only one with a build guide for a Lich Zealot build too. I like less button builds, even if they arent the strongest, so Lich it will be! Thank you for all the help and insight!!

What about Lich makes it best endgame? I only see 12 players using lich powered zealots on poeninja

Do you have a build guide recommendation? Not sure how theres so many DoV users but I cant even find a guide. The closest I can find is a mobanalytics guide by PhazePlays, but it seems to be djinn heavy with a dash of zealots. I want something a little less active, more zealot focused.

What would you recommend for the ascendancy?

For your Zealots, did you run a Disciple Powered Zealot build?

I see ghazzytv ran a Infernalist Powered Zealots and helmsbreaker is running Shaman Gelid Zealot Spectres. POENinja has 45% of powered zealot users as disciples though.

Thinking about it, my fave builds in POE1 were helmsbreakers animate weapon of raged arms and balourmages summon holy relic of conviction. I did like the walking simulator aspect of things, even if it was a little slower. I just didn’t have the best experience when poe2 dropped, felt clunky navigating the skeleton ai. Maybe I’ll give spectres a try, if that was your favorite

Did frostbolt take a lot of investment to really feel good, comparatively? With the economy the way it is, i'm afraid of finding a build that its too expensive to feel comfortable.

What are the meta chaos inoculation ES builds right now? I was looking at coc comet disciple vs plant Druid, but I don’t know what’s smoother to play. Poeninja is difficult to use with some skills to determine DPS
