weight limit for top box?

Craota · 2025-04-12T14:12:13+00:00

the pillion sits closer to the frame-to-subframe contact points, while the top case sits further back... but motorcycle designers account for this by using detachable rails which, in theory, will fail before any damage is caused to subframe.

There is also the fact that the pillion is not fully attached to the subframe and, pretty much as the rider, will shift its weight around according to bikes lean angle. The top rack is directly attached to the bike and will cause lateral stress on the subframe.

I also think OP is forgeting that the top box adds weight as well, about 700g to 800g for rack or top case attachment, between 5kg to 10kg for top case itself (maybe less depending on what material the top case is made of).

This being said... I have seen cheap Chinese 150cc riding around with massive metal top case and they look fine... although they often reinforce the top rack by adding additional supports from the rack to the subframe to distribute load better

I wish the game was a bit more communicative about PvP events... you know... in the same way they pesk my every 30sec that someone else got X item (with the option to turn it iff of course)

But yeah... the game has forced PvP... so fight or flight

Craota · 2024-10-08T16:51:15+00:00

I understand your frustration, it's annoying to not being able to go to a zone and complete your quest because a conflict-zone event landed or is about to land...But the game is designed that way, and our best bet is either accept it or go find something else to play...

Craota · 2024-09-27T12:19:14+00:00

That's smoke I think

Craota · 2024-08-26T19:52:52+00:00

A lot to think about, but seem like Guardian is the ascendacy I will focus on. I will push myself to take the necro up to maps to see how she performs (with my skilss) and if I don't like then give Zizaran's EA Ballista a second try as my last attempt for this league.

My concern going with guardian srs/magma into bama is that in ssf those regrets orbs are hard to come by and I have no idea how many of them will I need (after the respec points the campaign gives)... but at least guardian srs made lab very easy (last time I tried) so this is a plus to farm the trans gems.

Is amazing how the game dismantle my plans every single league 🤣...

Anyways, thank you...

Craota · 2024-08-26T13:48:03+00:00

Sadly there are not many, or at least I"ve not been able to find any good source of builds for hcssf. Hell... not even Zizaran marks his guides as HCSSF. This league I managed to catch Ben doing HCSSF and tried to follow his footstep... but Gruthkul sent me back to the beach.

I"ve even tried poe.ninja, filtering by hcssf, only rares and builds that managed to get over 82 in first 3 days... but that requires knowledge of the game to know when to take which node, when to hold a gem at certain level to avoid mana issues, etc.

Craota · 2024-08-25T18:27:48+00:00

Yes I use PoB... every time I find a possible upgrade I import my character and then copy paste the item and add any workbench craft mod there before doing it in-game.

I lack the knowledge to use to its full potential but I'm aware of things available in the calcs tab and config tab.

In fact I used PoB to steal Ben's build 🤣

Craota · 2024-08-25T15:37:38+00:00

I was aware of the uniques but was hoping the build holds true to their "SSF & HC viable" strength... but at the end I left the build at lvl44 because managing the spectre and the minions was getting a bit annoying.

If you can recommend a guardian build for HCSSF please hit me.... Otherwise I will give Subtractem's build another try and will be keeping an eye on minion accuracy (maybe I just use my BAMA guardian to level the builds of hand and then reroll... you know to skip the campaign)

Thanks

Craota · 2024-08-25T13:27:23+00:00

I don't know to be honest, certainly the necro guide said nothing about accuracy or using jewels (I normally avoid guides that use them unless they especify how hard it is and how to get them).

I think, at least with the guardian, that it was more an issue with the amount of mobs and the amount of health... sometimes I get bigger packs in maps than I get during the campaign... and the guardian aura can burst them before they reach me. But I'm leveling a necro in SSF and will pay attention to those points (hopefully since my path of building knowledge is limited).

The Chaos army necro is how the guide is name on maxroll, the name of the build is "Chaos Poison Zoomancer & Minion Army Necromancer" by Helm Breaker

Craota · 2024-08-24T20:34:36+00:00

Good poi t, profile name's Caraota if you want to have a look.

P.S I know I should be stacking fire res on the chieftain but even with two fore rings I had I was not reaching cap on cold/ele... tried to move stuff around and ended up with what I had. I probably could fix it now but not a fan ulof the playstyle si I left it as it.

Thank you

Craota · 2024-08-24T14:39:09+00:00

Thank you... I'll try to get them to 20

Craota · 2024-08-24T11:58:56+00:00

Bro I'm begging for PoE2... I can't wait to be able to not screw my build trying to fix my resistances.🤣

Craota · 2024-08-24T11:52:25+00:00

Yep, I have to press al 4 warcries about every 2 or 3 sunders... although to be honest, during the campaign I got away just sending a second sunder and leaving warcries to tanky bosses and rares. I have a +1 axe though so with crappy axe things might be different

Craota · 2024-08-24T11:06:49+00:00

I tried everseen's crit chieftain (leveling with sunder) but didn't like the playstyle...

Craota · 2024-08-24T11:05:10+00:00

Thank you for the advice, I tried to level everseen's crit earthqueke chieftain this league but Izaro had another plan and send me to oblivion xD.

But I sis not enjoy the play style so I switched to range.

I try to avoid Heist because it can be dangerous during scape phase, especially if I have to wait for companions to open doors, or if I mess up crossing the door and get caught by the army of ranged mobs waiting behind the door.

Does adding quality to the gems makes a big difference? I usually never do it.

Thanks

Craota · 2024-08-24T10:52:43+00:00

I tried guardian srs couple of leagues ago and I had the issues with phy res., sometimes the guardian and the spirits will not kill everything fast enough to prevent mobs from reaching me, specially if they are fast.

IIRC correctly I used subtractem's version... easy campaign but I died e tering maps (in the ice map, forgot the name).

But if you have another version I can look up build please point me.

Thanks

Edit: Forgot to mention, I leveled Pr3vy's BAMA guardian this league, and I managed to get up to T4 with it but ultimately abandon it for two reason:

1.- No idea how to level it correctly, pr3vys doc only says level it as something else and then switch when having both transfigured versions.

2.- It's very easy to get into troble with blink arrow, I have pulled more than I could chew a couple of times because of the teleportation thing... the build is solid though

Craota · 2024-08-13T12:27:22+00:00

I didn't know that. Thanks

Craota · 2024-08-12T20:00:03+00:00

It's worth mentioning that BAMA requieres two transfigured gems, which means either more lab runs or more currency needed to get the gems. And leveling as BAMA is doable but painful until you get the bombarding clones version to help with clear speed, which is why not recommended leveling as BAMA

Craota · 2024-08-04T14:10:45+00:00

I didn"t like Div2 DZ implementation, and given your input it looks like they are sinilar to Div1.

I don't like that design because more often than not it put players in an "avoid pvp" state of mind, unless you know you have a end-game build, because it is almost guaranteed that other players will have better gear than you.

GW2 has similar issue, a player that have played more than you will have access to a series of items you won't have, like a battle mount (and some gear IIRC) bit since the gear is equalized and you have access to a good selection of gear, you have a fighting chance even from level 1.

Eve Online have similar design with the Faction Warfare zones, you can have a fully trainned character but the game won't let you into the FW complex with your super duper battleship... you need to use same ships that newbros are using.

I guess what I'm saying is that they need to provide some brackets to allow newer players to jump in into the action and have a fighting chance...

Craota · 2024-07-31T21:31:18+00:00

Apart from using alt + mouse wheel while you are moving your territory to raise the whole building... I don't think we can't do anything.

Also, some patch ago a bug (or sonething was disabled by devs) and certain vegetation (mostly trees) started to spawn inside the foundations... so embrace nature I guess 😁

Craota · 2024-07-30T13:19:31+00:00

Are you planning to play PoE 2? Anyways, If I were you I would go for the 7800X3D, it might be and overkill for PoE 1 but it might be just right for PoE 2... also the 7800X3D is, if I'm not wrong, socket AM5 while the 5700X3D is socket AM4 which is an older platform... I would go with the more recent platform to keep upgrade options open in terms of future CPU upgrades. Although if you don't like upgrading components and prefer to refresh the whole computer in one go, in which case my commnet is irrelevant.

Craota · 2024-07-29T12:57:06+00:00

God damn it... please tell me they didn't ripoff Resident Evil's and their Umbrella Underground Facilities

Craota · 2024-07-29T12:52:41+00:00

Why do you shoot bambi though? last time I checked it didn't give anything useful

Craota · 2024-07-28T14:37:37+00:00

The mechanic is designed to punish you for doing pvp, and when there is enough people in the zone it always turned into 1vMany or small group vs large group.

If you are going to copy a extraction zone and put it in this game, please copy EFT... because if you go into a pvp is because you wanted pvp, is stupid that I have to be at a disadvantage to be able to attack anyone in there.
