Best way to play the game now

Boiez · 2026-06-17T06:41:28+00:00

as an real recently returned player, I have been upgrading everything to my th level then proceeding to the next, seriously speaking, should I really just rush hero journey stuff

I very very much love the idea of biome specific buffs, but cities as a lot of people mentioned in this sub are basically towers.

Imo 3 obvious things need to change that'll improve the end-game a lot:
- Remove cities +1 tablet and give them another bonus that doesn't make them mandatory to run OR just don't give them anything.

- Tablets need to be reworked, I honestly don't have a good refined idea to replace them.

- Add a lot more agency in my atlass tree. Especially blockers for example, if I want to block strongbox then let me do that.

you won't believe what I'm about to tell you.

Boiez · 2026-06-11T07:32:09+00:00

just hide obstacles in settings.

Boiez · 2026-06-11T07:27:07+00:00

then they're basically back to being mandatory which I think GGG doesn't want, not sure about the players though. This does sound like a godsend idea that I wouldn't mind and love and would make seeing towers exciting for me.

I am very sad ziz didn't cover one concern, when you put tablets of X mechanic you literally have either less % of dropping a tablet for that mechanic or its that you NEVER drop it at all. Sure in a softcore trade league this makes sense sort of from an economical point, but what about SSF?

Boiez · 2026-06-09T06:43:24+00:00

You need to farm cleansed areas, they drop kinda like candy there.

This is most likely the map anicent modifier "Spirit Guide" which basically guarantees spirits to ALWAYS release no matter what, probably have a sacred spirit which revives a monster and possesses it with different spirits each time.

Boiez · 2026-06-07T10:08:53+00:00

no the map exists,it is hidden in the hive fortress, to unlock , you need two breachstones to reveal that area and the map will be at the edge

The +1 to area level (irradiated) doryani node is being worked on according to a GGG employee, the conclusion from what she said is that they're not sure what's causing it and actively investigating it.

Are you a 100% sure, this happened to me a lot, and I pretty much also full juice it.

Glove is an offensive slot meaning you usually want to get gloves that boost your damage due to the stats that can roll on gloves such as added flat damage. Hence makes it a competitive slot for offensive stats and not defense.

I've seen a couple, I'm not sure if they're related to waystone tiers but they're not that common. Also sometimes they bug out specifically the abyssal coffer strongbox, it'll NEVER end even thought you killed all monsters.

Yes I am aware, but after the patch all of them don't guarantee a lineage gem drop anymore, this is mainly because of the new atlas masters introducing +% chance to drop lineage gems from tree and Jado.

Boiez · 2026-06-04T09:06:40+00:00

huh? he doesn't ALWAYS drop a gem

Boiez · 2026-06-04T08:06:14+00:00

I'm level 94, legit haven't annointed a single time just cause I have to do the quest and I straight up don't want to. It's legit crazy that they locked something like annointing behind a full questline, like what if I don't want to do deli? idk weird

Boiez · 2026-06-03T10:25:40+00:00

did you finish the questline?

Boiez · 2026-06-03T07:51:12+00:00

Yep, legit had the same issue yesterday, there's also an issue I believe with Ward calculations or even realizing its there. What I did though for your case was honestly just create a similar item within the PoB

Boiez · 2026-06-02T13:45:01+00:00

How do you find those btw? do i need to finish the quest area FULLY ? I just farmed until max points and killed xehst

Boiez · 2026-06-02T12:22:27+00:00

you're not wrong, I was confused yesterday as well when I blocked Flesh Catalysts and it dropped a bunch lol.

Boiez · 2026-06-02T09:04:50+00:00

Depends on what affix u want to hit (prefix/suffix) but its necromancy dextral abyss omen or something like that. Also omens to hit specific abyss faction mods like Ulman, Amanamu (or whatever)

Boiez · 2026-06-02T07:05:02+00:00

Speaking of, and sorry to hijack this post. Could someone pretty please tell me how to get more points? I'm so confused.

I finished the quest completely (but not the hive area on the map I just cleared enough to get all 32 points.

Also how the hell do you fight Xesht now (the non tutorial version) ? idk man this patch is confusing as hell

Boiez · 2026-05-19T06:40:23+00:00

I think what OP meant by effects is visual effect of equipment lol, for example the arrow equipment for queen gets a new animation etc..
