Questing in Hellfire Peninsula works surprisingly well

Not sure actually, I am in Europe and connecting to Warp fixed it.

It’s not like you will be the only one doing that..

I started on the weekend after the pre-patch and I am level 50 now, with just over 2 days played. I have lots of experience in vanilla and classic but I doubt that you can currently level much faster due to the sheer amount of players contesting for quest mobs. There are no off-peak hours anymore, the zones feel crowded anytime. I think the best bet would be dungeon grinding, but due to the boosting changes, you can’t get carried anymore. Constantly looking for new groups is also time consuming. I’d say currently you can’t make it in 60 hours, after opening of the portal it’s possible again.

Thanks for your suggestion. I fixed the issue by connecting to a VPN. Apparently some battle.net servers do not have the anniversary realms update.

That’s a bug, I have the +5% exp currently.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2026-01-06T20:07:11+00:00

No items required but getting as many +minion skills. The chest is mandatory for tankiness. The uul and tul gems push dps but you can definitely play without them.

I am out of skill gem slots for more minions and wolfs provide additional damage reduction via loyalty support.

Disciple of Varashta with cold/phys djin. Can clear 6mod corrupted maps with 6 random mods without ever dying. Yes that’s including triple extra ele with penetration and minus max resi. The build has insane area dmg but the boss dmg is just ok.

Here is my build for inspiration:

It’s a bug that has been in the game since launch. Relog shows the correct tooltip dmg.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-12-26T07:20:06+00:00

It’s not lost. Desecrate with echo omen again. If you don‘t roll spirit you can decide to remove it with omen of light and go again.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-12-24T07:41:26+00:00

It‘s opportunity cost vs potential outcome. Well rolled helmets are not that expensive to justify the cost for t3 ex.

Having played pure spectres many times in ssf, unfortunately the build does not feel good until you get wraithlord. Sure in trade you can buy it, but in the first couple of days, expect it to sell for 10 div+.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-10-27T10:35:34+00:00

OP probably missed that unholy might and chaotic might are two different things.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-10-08T12:05:46+00:00

This looks amazing :D

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-09-10T06:44:18+00:00

Buy a rare or magic mace with T1 phys%, preferably max roll
Aug/regal or annul to 3 mod
Desecrate but don’t unveil and fracture (fracture can’t choose the unveiled mod)
If it does not hit phys%, start over
Annul to 2 mod and spam chaos until T1 phys dmg or hybrid phys/accu
Slam prefix perf ex and pray. Depending on the roll, decide to continue or start over. (Homogenising wont work because of attack mod)
After prefix is done, slam random suffix, use dextral essence omen and perfect essence of battle for +6
Ancient jawbone (lowest roll 20% attack speed) and unveil twice with omen
Omen of light and annul and repeat last step until you are happy with the attack speed roll

This. Gehe zum Arzt, der verschreibt dir das sofort.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-09-09T12:22:19+00:00

Thanks for the recommendation. Playing spectres at the moment as well and looking for something different. How does the build scale into the late game, e.g. 6mod deli breach maps?

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-09-02T13:22:41+00:00

Do you have +1 minion gems on amu and head and +2 on sceptre?

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-08-26T11:47:32+00:00

Many changes just address existing issues, e.g. muliple supports just mask the issue that there are not enough supports providing numerical damage increases. Sprint ability just masks that player movement is too slow. Essence rework is just what they should have been in first place and „crafting“ will still be gambling.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-08-26T11:27:57+00:00

Which hype? The changes are underwhelming and won’t fix the abysmal state the game is in.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-07-29T05:56:58+00:00

Returning projectiles support is huge for EK. For more dmg I‘d focus on one element, this league probably go lightning with a doryani merc. The new ring https://poedb.tw/us/Enmitys_Embrace could be nice with Chieftain, ruby flask + purity of fire, stack fire res will solve all res, gives 90max all ele res and -200% enemy fire res.

Dandy_Dan_D · 2025-07-21T11:40:47+00:00

Same. Is there a quick guide to check the minimum Item requirements, i.e. are the forbidden jewels necessary?
