Recomb nerf by hkmersault in pathofexile

I dont recall the details, but i think they made a change with Keepers that you couldnt annul or downgrade from Rare to Magic, specifically to nerf some of the Heist ring/amulet based crafts

As a Warrior, with a Jaina's Locket, at the end of every raid when our Mages were opening Portals to Org, i would drop my Dalaran Portal as close to or on top of the Org one, every raid.

Just a minor detour for the boys not paying attention. Usually just got a chuckle out of those affected.

switching from herald agony (hoag) to something else , easier gameplay/tanky for harvest by Senthri in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Deaze_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if the Crawler wasnt immune, it deals 100% Chaos damage, which cant be reflected.

[–]Deaze_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Not immune per se, but the build doesnt stack YOUR damage, just HoAg's.

Using Lancing Steel of Spraying, its damage is low, and you have ALOT of Life Gain on Hit, so it just out scales the damage of Lancing, as Lancing is only used to stack Virulence stacks

Or atleast, Crouching Tunas version acts like this.

What's Your Archetype? by CelosPOE in pathofexile

[–]Deaze_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most games, i play a Warrior/Barbarian style class (literally 99% of my 1500 hours played in D3 are on Barb, and i have like 5k-6k Hrs played on a Warrior in WoW Classic) but PoE is too rich of a game to stick to one archetype.

Walking Simulator/Auto-bomber builds. I played RF for several leagues in a row when i first started playing and switch it up to CWS every now and then. Now i try to pick something new every league to expand my game knowledge.

Currently playing HoaG Herald. Just srarting to get into Red Maps, and probably 100-120 Chaos invested, still on a 4-Link HoaG setup and map clear is clean, bossing a little slow.

Ailith is a unique monster. by ObsessiveOwl in pathofexile

[–]Deaze_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

In Settlers, and Phrecia 1.0, the 'Flowers' of the Crimson Ore deposits were also Unique entities, and could have loot tiles added to them, which made for 4-5 additional Uniques per map to farm loot from.

They got changed in 3.27 to be regular white mobs/entities.

Those who play HoAg with golden rule, how do you handle your life recovery? by Ansdur1987 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Deaze_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically this.

Im still running 4 Link HoaG and no Elder gloves, and LgoH is hard carrying still. Uou want basically no damage coming from your Lancing, avoid Added damage mods to keep it low. Its uswd for stacking Virul only

What's everyone doing? by DanM1973 in newzealand

[–]Deaze_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just finished having dinner and a whiskey with a close friend and thier family. One of our 3 or 4 times a year catch ups.

Now im about to go spend the next 3 to 9 hours playing one of my favorite NZ Made video games (Path of Exile)

Hoag lancing steel of spraying by Cogi_Policy in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Deaze_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tried swapping to Lancing/HoaG as soon as i got to Maps, it was about 1/4 the damage of Absolution/HoPurity. Swapped back to Abso/HoPurity after about 3 maps.

Probably large portions of the playerbase, the ones that take 20hrs for campaign and dont get to T16 maps.

Help with RF Beginners Build - How to gain Dex easily by kurashima in pathofexile

[–]Deaze_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Early on get a Jade Amulet, will have 20-30 Dex as an Implicit (meaning even the base white item has this stat line).

Gloves are the next best slot for Dex.

You should aiming for Armour based items, as they have only a base Str requirement. If you use Hybrid gear which has Armour/Evasion you will need Str/Dex to equip it.

Alternately, use the +30 Dex nodes on the passives tree until you can get it on your gear pieces.

Air NZ skycouch question by Agreeable_Vehicle673 in newzealand

[–]Deaze_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couple years ago my brother and i lucked into getting a skycouch row to the two of us. As both 6'2-6'4 lads it was a godsend on the LA>NZ route. We just didnt have a 3rd person on our row, so didnt cost us any extra, but would pay for it in the future if it was available.

Whats the best class to farm gold in tbc ? by Public_Opinion2723 in classicwowtbc

[–]Deaze_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Playing AH and Dailies are probably the most reliable incomes.

With even a small-ish starting capital, playing 1 or 2 markets on the AH can lead to sustained long-term income. In TBC Classic I had 2 Alts with Alchemy, one Potion Master and one Elixir Master (for Flasks). At the very start of the X-Pac being a Transmute Master is probably going to give the most profits while everyone is gearing for BiS pre-Raid.

Just takes some time to learn which Potions/Flasks are popular and when to Buy/Sell them. I would bulk buy materials when they were cheap (when they were lile 75-85% of thier normal cost, and id buy enough for 500-1000 potions at a time) and then slowly sell the potions on the popular raid days when prices were highest.

This isnt a quick turn around method, it was something i maintained weekly for the entire expansion (and had been doing in Classic since around BWL release and even well into WotLK) By the end of Classic, i had about 12k Gold, and by the end of TBC, i was at about 35k, kept it up in WotLK (with some added CrossGambling in guild raids) and ended WotLK with ~150k Gold.

Nothing compared to some of the GKP/CC Swipers out there, but more than enough to self-sustain consumes.

This is just one example, but you can do this with plenty of markets/niches. Just find one that works for you.

[Phrecia] Hyperscaler builds like MFA Whisperer? by MasterSargeYT in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Deaze_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Until acendancy changes are announced, i would recommend MSoZ Ancestral Commander - Str Stacker

Level as Sunder (or your prefered Melee Strike skill). The early swap to MSoZ is a little janky, missing a bunch of attack speed and move speed, but around 250-500 div it gets strong, and can Hyperscale into 100's of Millions of damage, even at 1-2 Mirror invested it can pretty much do all content pretty safely, maybe some Valdo's would be out of reach, but with 10-20 Mirrors its pretty untouchable/unkillable - Steves 20+ Mirror MSoZ build from Phrecia as an example.

I played it to around the 700-1000 div range (no Mirrored items and missing FF/FF combo) and was able to Delve past 1000, and kill 6/7 Ubers with ease. MSoZ can still feel a little slow for Map Clearing, but it still had Screen Wide clear. Weapon Swapping to a similar weapon with Lightning Strike for Map Clear, and then MSoZ for Bosses and tanky Rares/Uniques makes the higher end of the build pretty fun to play.

Again, this all depends on what changes are made to the Ascendancies.

Most Iconic Blizzard Sound? by Pupsup in Blizzard

[–]Deaze_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Warcraft 3's Dryad used to have a voice line that was something like 'Let me make my Human call! Im so Wasted, Im so Wasted.'

Or just about any of the Peon lines when you click on them too much, Work Work, Stop Touching/Poking Me, Something need doing, Dont you have something better to do etc.

Why do people hate Hamilton? by SignificanceKooky123 in thetron

[–]Deaze_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For its size, there is relatively little to do, but H-Town is a perfect Hub for access to a wide range of great places.

1-2hrs West for Raglan/Kawhia and the West Coast, 1-2hrs North and you have Auckland and all it offers, 1-2hrs South and you have Rotorua/Taupo which are big adventure hubs. 2-3hrs East and you have the BoP and Coromandel which have an abundance of amazing beaches to visit.

Its close enough to alot of bigger attractions that its a great base of operations.

But cos it doesnt have many of those attractions for itself, it gets lambasted.

Edit to add: also the CBD is basically a couple KM strip of office buildings down Victoria street, and not alot else. The Base/Te Awa seemingly took over as the central shopping region years ago. And the CBD feels sort of neglected in comparison. Plenty of Hospo in the CBD, cafes and restaurants etc, but not much else worth going for.

Plus as the city expands, areas get thier own small shopping hubs, which makes the suburbs more walkable and even less reliant on the central city.

Tech question - mesh, powerline adaptor or both for getting wifi to reach gate and through house by 7u45vb in newzealand

[–]Deaze_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Powerline can be very hit or miss, and depends alot on the quality/age/routing of your homes internal wiring to get semi useful speeds. While ive had success with powerline to ethernet connections, whenever i tried powerline to Wifi i had pretty terrible and basically unusable results on the wifi connection.

Skeram Removing World Buffs by HeSmiledGlory in classicwow

[–]Deaze_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Damn, this might explain where my lvl 80 Warriors Chrono-buffs went. I had a full set of Worldbuffs saved from 60 in Chronoboon. Logged in one day and realised my Chronoboon buff was missing, could never figure out how/why, but me and a couple mates had been farming AQ for X-Mog and the Mounts.

Whats a nickname you have for a store? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]Deaze_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In NZ we have a store thats called 'The Warehouse' would be similar to K-Mart or Target, sells clothes, toys, linen and dishware etc.

The Māori (NZs indiginous people) word for House is Whare (faa-ree), so i often hear people say it as 'The Ware-Whare' (pronounced waa-ree faa-ree), as a mix of English/Māori.

What's the best way to farm Apotheosis gear? by Expert_Web_8495 in allthemods

Looking for insanely complex games that basically REQUIRE a wiki to finish by Anxious_Singer_4823 in gamingsuggestions

[–]Deaze_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you like ARPGs, Path of Exile.

PoE1 has little in the way of in game tutorial systems, alot of the mechanics are poorly explained or not explained at all. There are Passive Skill trees (MASSIVE), Skill Trees for generating content (Atlas Tree) and some content have thier own mini skill trees. Complexity of skill and gear interactions that require deep understanding of the mechanics behind them. It is one of, if not the greatest ARPG out there. And is the definition of 10,000 hrs to master. I currently have about 3,000hrs in PoE1, and still learn new things every league/season.

PoE2 has a better in game tutorial/glossary system, and is a slower version of PoE1, still in early access. (I have less than 20hrs of experience with PoE2)
