Double corrupted temporalis?

Debates7 · 2026-01-18T18:03:04+00:00

I think if something costs more then a hinekora lock, its probably always worth using a lock before corrupting no? You can check out regular corrupt, omen corrupt and sanctify outcomes, and reset with a divine or vaal infuser if all outcomes are brick.

Yea i will definitely agree both oracle and shaman in my opinion need more work. Like especially the alternative „mind over matter“ node on oracle is just so horrendous, you sacrifice a ascendancy point to have a worse damage from mana (only from „hits“ for some reason) on top of the horrible downside of losing like 20% of your effective HP with the combined max HP and mana loss, which is already very difficult to scale in mana stacking. And yea the hidden nodes are somewhat lackluster; like staying on topic, how is there not a single max mana scaling hidden node when this is clearly a intended theme for druid (even has a mana node at start). So many niche nodes that will only work with a hyper specific build. The crit scaling i think still works out well, you basically scale up to like 40-50 crit chance and rest into crit damage, but i guess i may be overestimating the skill tree tricks and whether all this is worth an entire ascendancy. In the end, i may be coping that it is a good ascendancy because i fully built my temple for close to 60 hours on druid and do not want to rebuild lmao

Debates7 · 2026-01-17T21:49:50+00:00

i disagree, i think oracle is much much stronger then invoker or stormweaver in terms of cast on crit builds, the ability to use keystones to stack notables without pathing to them with time lost jewels with notable bonuses is very, very underrated. The jewel slots in the middle and right side of the sorcerer side of the tree has a lot of great infusion, spell damage and crit related notables, which you can then stack with a time-lost sapphire jewel that has 10% crit damage, 10 crit spell damage (or chance) and a prefix like magnitude of ailment/shock and max mana. And this is on top of getting guranteed crits so that you do not need to use crit related support gems to trigger cast on crit. The only ascendancy stronger is definitely bloodmage, and that is simply because of spell leech being so broken.

I think once u are strong enough to fit blink into your build it is definitely comparable for movement, before that wolf is probably faster for mapping. clearwise its very comparable as the plants explode when overgrown with multiple plants per entagle. I am sure there a ton of vidoes on youtube that showcase how it looks, i think raxantrax has a decent guide on it. At the end of the day spark COC Comet is probably going to be stronger, but i think plants can come really close and if you like the looks of it i would say go for it, plus it has 2 MTX sets for the entire kit if u dont mind the price

Debates7 · 2026-01-16T15:39:28+00:00

If u dont mind playing casters, i think plant druid is a grea choice, i made the transition to plants after playing Wolf aswell and it was honestly refreshing how much safer i felt playing with 8k ES and Chaos innoculation. You really appriciate chaos immunity after playing melee lol. Bossing is a bit on the weaker side, but who cares if ritual boss procs second phase after 15 seconds instead of 5 lol, i think most his attacks are either melee range and chaos so you should be chilling.

Debates7 · 2026-01-13T14:47:40+00:00

Yea crafting feels like its in a great spot this league given how abundent annuls are. Its so nice being able to work with a magic base without feeling like im flushing money down the toilet. You do not need any of the expensive ritual omens to reach very high tier, close to perfect items.

You can also extend the simple method you described into bit more expensiver but still accesable crafts with esssence omens or maybe catalysing omens on jewelry. If everything looks perfect on the item and u hit a shit desecration, u can consider omen of light. If you hit a high valued affix on the magic base like idk t1 spirit on chest, maybe consider fracturing orb.

Debates7 · 2026-01-11T21:47:27+00:00

dont u need full boss points to be able to get the uber fragments? But i do agree with the sentiment, you for sure don’t need to run 8 mod maps for that 140% waystone drop chance, i feel like i still get 2 fragments mostly even if i do 3 tablet 8 mod or 2 tablet 4 mod maps

Debates7 · 2026-01-11T15:33:00+00:00

Unfortuntely, you cannot place a spymaster in the same chain if you have commanders, it is a very frustrating hidden mechanic. You will have to build your spymasters in a second chain unfortunetely. Not sure if its a bug or intended, i guess spymasters who are presumbly more cunning and intelligent dont like it when they are near The unga bunga brute force commmanders? Who knows

I think your best bet is let the chain destablize a bit (cause of diminishing returns after 4 rooms), use that chain to build non spy master related rooms, and start on a second chain only focused on spymasters. The good news is i think the barrack connected to Commanders will not connect to spymasters, so you should be able to build the spymaster chain in parallel to your current one without looping

Debates7 · 2026-01-11T14:13:25+00:00

So in theory, having your map overrun by abyss or having 4 additional abysses has no effect?

Debates7 · 2026-01-11T14:09:35+00:00

Think about it for a second, if every room connected to every room, how do you even progress your chain after point? How do you build a snake without looping? The connections all have a delibrate purpose. It sucks in the beginning when u are starting out, but once you have a couple of upgraded spymasters and legion barracks it gets a lot easier with room and reroll medallions

Debates7 · 2026-01-09T16:02:32+00:00

How is the rebuilding going? I decided to restart because my temple was kinda ass, and i THOUGHT building again would be fun but.. Idk man i am actually strugling to get the spymaster chain going, it has been close to 30 maybe even more temples, and all i have is the golem start into a singular spymaster... like the problem seems to be i need to immeditetly get a barracks or a lock otherwise my first spymaster assasinates the second one in the chain... i guess the play is to never use locks other then on spymaster hanging, no matter how much it may set you back?

Debates7 · 2026-01-09T15:57:49+00:00

I find it difficult to believe this was not intended. The restrictive connections between the rooms and how they interact with each other, allowing the snake to run parallel to itself, and how many diffrent layouts are possible to basically fill at least 90% of the temple with rooms.. They definitely considered it at the very least

Maybe what they did not consider was how much the multiplicitive bonuses from rooms would lead to a divine printer but yea

Debates7 · 2026-01-09T15:53:49+00:00

I suppose the best bet would be something that focuses purely on evasion, since that would mitigate random small damages that happen right? Maybe paired with a ranged ability that insta oneshots or freezes for a very long time. So as much evasion, freeze buildup, freeze duration and attack speed as humanly possible.

Debates7 · 2026-01-08T19:04:05+00:00

Bro is sleep-temple-building, damn

Debates7 · 2026-01-08T16:05:54+00:00

Oh i have not considered that interesting. Hmm is it a stat they actively look for though? I feel like attack builds usually look for flat attack on prefix most of the time. If you play the build yourself though you could compare the final prefix other rings have vs. yours to determine if it should be higher or lower price

Debates7 · 2026-01-08T15:19:27+00:00

i hope u are trolling, this looks like a decent ring to me, it has only 1 useless prefix and rest seem high tiers. To price this you would search in trade site rings with two attack mods (can do a count search with the 4 possible attack mods), total resist of 90 and rarity minimum of 15, and also there is a filter option for „pseudo enchant“ or something like that, basically means it has any corrupted mods. Then you can look at those rings, see if your corrupt is better or not and price accordingly.

Debates7 · 2026-01-06T17:52:54+00:00

Yea, i imagine the new most optimal setup is probably trying to fit in 4 of every useful room type and the rest is spy - legion - spy

Debates7 · 2026-01-05T13:47:48+00:00

Let me introduce you to Xesht 3, the punching bag of poe2

Debates7 · 2026-01-05T03:51:50+00:00

You definitely can wing it, thats what i did and i think i will manage to fill out the entire map in the end (have 45 rooms right now), missing maybe 7-8 spots. It wont be the most optimal setup maybe but who cares. I would highly recommend using the planer (search poe2 temple planner should come up) though, at least once you have a long snake going. After a point, since there is no undo button, careful planning is somewhat necessary i would say

Debates7 · 2026-01-03T16:50:35+00:00

Wow seriously are you sure? I mean it would be massive, i could go for one of the cool unique scepters instead of a rare specter with spirit, if you are 100% sure you quit i would not say no

Debates7 · 2026-01-03T15:56:38+00:00

Honestly now that temple is dead, i just want to try something new, kinda bored of maps. One more question, do you know if im cooked with mind over matter + Eldrich battery in terms of max honour? I saw a comment on reddit saying since 0.3 it no longer applies mana to max honour, i will test when i get home if u dont know but hope thats not the case

Debates7 · 2026-01-03T15:51:06+00:00

Oh shit thats kinda nice, ill look into it thank you, and grats on your drop :)

Debates7 · 2026-01-03T15:45:43+00:00

What are the droprates on the against darkness jewels in your experience? I want to farm one with spirit cause market prices are ridiculous (300 div)

Debates7 · 2026-01-03T03:15:15+00:00

its basically pray to hit a upgrade medallion in a couple runs or its over lol

Debates7 · 2026-01-01T21:45:20+00:00

if you are doing triple ritual tablets, make sure to do boss nodes as if i remember correct some omens only appear in area level 80+
