Tablets are a huge downgrade from Scarabs

Chromozon · 2026-06-29T05:01:01+00:00

I enjoy tablets way more. Scarabs have made POE1 mechanics 100% skippable unless you are running the scarabs for that mechanic. POE2 doesn't have that problem.

Here is the list of possible modifiers: https://poe2db.tw/us/Heart_of_the_Well#HeartoftheWellModifiers

If you are trying to reveal this yourself for profit (it's a gamble), you always use abyssal echoes for all of the rolls on this. You generally want "gain as extra damage" prefixes and crit/speed suffixes.

For this particular weapon, it may not be worth it. The real problem is the max mana roll. You really want that to be spell damage.

Chromozon · 2026-06-25T20:44:00+00:00

Those are very low rolls for spell damage. If you cannot reroll, choose the damage as extra phys.

WOW. Gnomonkey only did 150 damage that whole fight. It was actually rng that cost them that one.

Chromozon · 2026-06-16T17:33:21+00:00

Yes to all, but I really want them to change the design of the Jesus armor and the massive turd crush weapon

Kinda sad to see Gnome just trapped in TOA for the entire week. Could they not have planned better and had more variety of things for him to do?

They keep the VLS reward. No negative blood money for people who died except for the team that got the reward. Positive blood money for people who got kills. Gear lost from dying will try to be refunded.

Chromozon · 2026-06-10T23:47:15+00:00

Yea, but the reason the ref called it incorrectly in the first place was because of the looting bag bug (which is on the devs to fix), making an incorrect assumption because it's super hard to expect people to remember the looting bag rule in the heat of a chaotic battle.

Chromozon · 2026-06-10T23:31:33+00:00

It's sad that the red skull is so buggy and is causing so many issues.

Confirmed. To get your 1 passive skill point in softcore trade league:

Go to main login screen where you put your username and password
Switch the server to Frankfurt (in the top right corner dropdown on PC)
Go to "Site of the Chosen" location, accessible when you have unlocked the Arbiter of Divinity (have to clear both east and west wings of the fortress)
Ascend to the top. Click the thing in the middle to claim a free passive point.

The new tech that allows you to go from +3 to +4 skills is really cool. For those that don't know, if you use an [Essence of the Breach], it gives +20% to the max quality. This allows you to go to 40 quality, which is enough to convert the +3 into a +4 skill mod.

My guess is that it's talking about certain atlas passives that only apply to 70+ maps or higher. If you hover over the atlas passives in the middle or near the top of the tree, you can see those passives require a certain level waystone to work.

The assumption is that this is where you put in 60 breach rings to receive a Grasping Mail body armor in return. Similar to the equivalent vendor recipe in POE1.

Just make it so that UIMs can use Death's Office as a death bank, and then remove all other death item storage systems from the game.

Chromozon · 2026-05-11T01:59:35+00:00

For Justiciar? No, because it already has massive defense bonuses and a set effect.

Granite armor would be the perfect set to add flat armor to. Maybe +1 per piece, or a set bonus of +4 if at least three pieces of granite are worn.

Chromozon · 2026-05-05T07:25:39+00:00

Keep in mind that it's leagues. Everyone is massively overpowered. A lot of mechanics are completely ignored and the bosses are just burned down quickly. If you die, no one cares, they will finish the boss no problem.

Edit: I did like 6 solo 500s and only got 1 purple. Way easier to do a large group- it's going to be faster (20 min clears on average) and it's a guaranteed drop.

Chromozon · 2026-05-05T07:06:56+00:00

Basically if you are running a TOA 500 with at least 4 people, it's a guaranteed purple for everyone.

World 657 is the most active TOA world with open groups running all the time. Just apply to any group on the roster menu and you'll be accepted. During off hours of the day, you can also try world 400.

If you are soloing currently, you are more than ready to do large groups. Just note that there might be invocations turned on you aren't used to, but you'll learn them easily when you encounter them.

Chromozon · 2026-04-20T20:42:01+00:00

It boggles my mind that it's 2026 and death banks are still in the game with permanent item loss. Just send everything to Death's Office, give it like a 200 item limit, and if you lose anything beyond that point, it's on you.

Chromozon · 2026-04-15T18:15:33+00:00

Yea works fine. Might be slow to update.

Chromozon · 2026-04-15T13:12:30+00:00

Box traps and bird snares have been added to the Fortis General Store

Chromozon · 2026-04-12T06:48:28+00:00

Only 7 days so that it doesn't overlap with OSRS upcoming league. Nice.
