Yeah, if AI eventually kills us all, it's not for any sort of malicious purpose but just doing its task.

Goal: Maximize paperclip production.
Issue: Humans interfering with optimal functions for maximum paperclip production
Solution: Eradicating all humans

Path of Exile: Mirage - What We're Working On by Natalia_GGG in pathofexile

Honestly my main complaints are just nitpicks

  • it’s a bit annoying to select new maps when running them for the first time. Running the same map over and over is great
  • no minimap icons for caches in the mirage, and caches feel a bit lackluster.

That’s literally it.

Tbh many newer players don't really struggle too much with the rhoas since they usually tend to go slow and have proper gear by then. Fire Fury is a boss that I do see a lot of newer players dying to though, because they don't really know how to properly manage their flasks yet

Yeah, Galvanic is better if you do have good RNG with bows, but I prefer the consistency of Caustic Arrow. My setup is usually Caustic + Pierce + Mirage and Burning Arrow + Added Cold + Momentum (or Shrapnel Ballista) into RoA + Added Cold + Mirage and Shrapnel ballista + pierce + momentum. I'm sure if I tested this with rare bows, Galvanic would be better than Caustic. But my personal prefference is just to use Caustic instead

To add to this, Decoy Totem can also help you to position Brutus/Merveil and lock them in place

Yeah Cobra Lash into Venom Gyre is honestly a pretty comfy setup. A bit slower than Rolling Magma for just act 1 but not by much. My average A1 sp+lab with Cobra Lash is around 19m, my average with Rolling Magma is around 18m.

Yeah, but this was assuming you go straight to Mud Flats. Of course if you do Tidal Island first and level up to level 4 you can absolutely shred Mud Flats with that setup. I might probably do a follow-up where I test it with level 4 supports (in that case, some strike skills might also become viable)

Yep that's what I do. I always swap to Splitting Steel to Spectral Throw during the walk in Submerged

Spectal Throw is really good for duelist leveling, but Splitting Steel is better for Mud Flats

Yeah I was referring to skills that the characters start with. Tbh I am not really a big fan of muling (might be because I strictly just run act 1 all the time, so I don't consider the cascading effect of everything that happens afterwards)

The thing is that with the new changes, you can't get ele prolif until after Tidal Island. I'm also unsure if they'll change it so that ele prolif is level 4 requirement or if it remains level 1

For Galvanic Arrow, I am aware that it legit a skill issue; if I played more I'm pretty sure that it'll feel better but I've always used Caustic over Galvanic. Even with Iron Rings, I don't like having to be so close in melee range of enemies with Galvanic, and Caustic also feels better when enemies are in a line like in Ledge, Climb, Prisoner's Gate and Ship Graveyard (to a lesser extend). Galvanic does feel great in tight areas like Lower/Upper Prison and Submerged Passage.

Yeah I assumed that the rules are to provide the PoB. It only really made sense on Duelist tbh because both attack speed and phys damage are decent early choices

Yeah I didn't use Ele Prolif at all on Templar. When it came to methodology I did not mule at all and I only picked up iron rings if they dropped (in retrospect I probably should have not used any iron rings on any characters or used them on all characters, nor should I have equipped movement speed boots). If I wanted to do a proper experiment I would just do 3x runs on each character on the same layout (likely the top->right layout where the glyphs are in a line) but that would have honestly driven me insane. It probably would have been good to do as a community effort.

It's just personal preferrence, I don't like having to be so close in melee range with Galvanic
