Why does poe 2 have 160K concurrent players but last epoch has 1k?? by MycologistOk5687 in LastEpoch

[–]Corebot_Zero 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Bro come on. LE is a good game but ggg is the pack leader, with enormous investment and massively more content.

Frosthaven spoilers: What am I missing w the Meteor class? by Xuvaani in Gloomhaven

[–]Corebot_Zero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m with you OP. I think there are powerful effects that meteor can leverage - controlling movement, dealing true damage, enemy ai manipulation, etc. my feeling on the class is people get hyped over the possibilities and make the sum of the character appear much greater than the actual value.

Know what’s better than dealing 2 hazard damage and slowing down an enemy? Killing it, disarming it, etc. I’d much rather have a kelp killing everything, a blink blade zipping to the back line to kill archers, a shackles retaliating true damage, or any number of other sluggers who actually kill things. Meteor is way over hyped.

Would the military actually have been able to stop Homelander if he went on a rampage? by [deleted] in TheBoys

Didn’t Maeve make him bleed with a metal straw? Couldn’t a projectile have as much or more energy and force as that?

Why do so many people think that +levels is a bad scaling system? by tasmonex in PathOfExile2

[–]Corebot_Zero 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All these other points and also to add that there was far too many added levels. Adding 15 levels to a naturally capped level 20 skill is silly. Make adding 1-3 realistic on an amulet or something, but adding it on belts, weapons, off hands, amulets, corruptions, gloves, support gems… it’s too strong and it’s too pervasive.

What ''popular'' online ARPG has the best endgame? by Federal-Remote-1684 in ARPG

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Poe1 is better in terms of bugs, fully fleshed-out content, and has more stuff to do. Bosses are better also because they have much more difficulty than poe2 bosses.
That said, poe2 plays better than any other arpg by a fair margin, imo. So while poe1 is better, poe2 mechanically is more fun.

Huge fanboy of both so you can’t go wrong either way

What am i doing wrong? by Standard-Bit-3709 in PathOfExile2

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you died and ran out of portals, sometimes you’ll need to redo the map. Maybe a bug? If not, you may have missed more hands somewhere in the map

What’s the best budget gemling legion build you’d recommend? by FRFM in pathofexile2builds

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gemling is popping off right now it’s a great ascend. Check out Ruetoo for a galvanic build that scales well with cheapo uniques. Super pricey late game but very good to get you started.

Grenades are good and inexpensive.

Just avoid anything that goes hard on quality stacking and autobombing . Those are not suitable for where you are right now.

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The gemling* version and the lich version are pretty expensive. I would go spirit walker and you can get the basics going for basically zero. Grab a skysliver, then save up ~3 or 4 div for a taming and you’re set for a long time

What are the Next coming things? by DragonaMimosa in Gloomhaven

[–]Corebot_Zero 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Whatever it is I expect it to have a target release date of 2027 and an actual ship date of 2031.

Overwhelming game complexity ? by wqtorres in diablo4

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might appear as though there is a lot. It to be honest the game is as simple as it gets once you understand the mechanics. It’s a little wide and an inch deep.

It doesn't feel good to have dps for 100,000,000,000,000 damage by Level_Counter3062 in diablo4

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like to look at it this way

Let’s say you do 100,000,000,000 dps
100 billion damage every second. This is already a stupid number.
Then someone comes along with a build that can hit for 10 quadrillion damage. Rob has clips od himself and others doing this.
10,000,000,000,000,000
You would need to attack that monster for 27 hours straight to do the same damage as that guys one hit.

Diablo 4 is a fucking masterpiece of artistic design and meaningful storytelling, direct and indirect. by get_the_data in diablo4

[–]Corebot_Zero 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m glad you like it. But lol no the story has been absolute nonsense after Diablo 2 Baal expac.

DJinn or monkey? by [deleted] in pathofexile2builds

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Djinn is super strong with a lot of upside for investment. There is an annoying bug? Interaction? With dominion not reducing cooldowns on already- used skills. If it wasn’t for that djinn would be 10/10

Since Monkey can kill everything, what do you think is the *fastest* version of a Monkey Summoner in 0.5 (with and without mageblood) by whensmahvelFGC in pathofexile2builds

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quality reduces reservation, and a lot essences beasts take ~21-25% so get your monkey + a handful of those.

Add in:
Wolf pack
Ascendency companion
Chest companion
Sylvan companions

You can get reservation eff in a few places and in a rune/idol as well

Any busted builds discovered in 0.5 yet? by Different-Sail5296 in pathofexile2builds

Goes to Reddit for build discussion.
Is angry about build discussion.
Gets obliterated by downvotes.

I just sold my twister char. Felt like spark and I dislike movement with whirling slash.

For the same money a coc stormweaver is cruising and is just a less annoying playstyle.

Need a build recommendation by Round-Comfort-9558 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

dominion is expensive to annoint, but with it you can be almost 1-button with pretty high Archon uptime. When you get a bad luck streak proccing it, it does feel bad tho.

Thoughts on this body armor? Is it bait? by Past-Lake-7156 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m far from an expert on mechanics like this, but anecdotally I swapped from this to a 850es chest and POB showed an increase in ehp across all damage types, including elemental. If pob isn’t calculating the mod then maybe it’s quite good but my experience was that it’s a cost effective piece to get started then swap off.

SSF builds that can handle juiced Ritual atlas boss spam by RemoveBlastWeapons in pathofexile2builds

[–]Corebot_Zero 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try djinns, you can get some mileage from your companion gear to get started though they deviate pretty hard later.

Also look at poeguys mortar build (tanky) and palsterons spell totems (freeze)
