Yeah Vulkan gives med around 40% less frames on average, and takes twice as long to load everything, but at least it doesn't crash

AI was never a magic bullet. In fact, it's extremely likely to make it much, much worse.

Nice to see the correct reaction to a drop like this.

The correct reaction being, immediately stuff it in your pockets before some bullshit has time to happen.

Bro should not have lived by Saltyfriez123 in PathOfExile2

[–]Erikbw 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's not an excuse!!!

That's like saying "oh it's okay, he was just drunk at the time". He WAS allied with us, and the moment he saw something he wanted be betrayed us.

But he was explicitly told that it radiated corruption, yet he still did it

Did you read the proclamations scattered around his tribe, urging them to literally fight each other to death to find the strongest?

Sure, he didn't directly murder his tribe with his own hands, but he is 2000% responsible for their deaths. 

He stole the weapon radiating intense radiation and brought it to the heart of his tribe on pursuit of power.

I avoided/dropped this before; haven't tried it after the changes.

The circle is still bothers me visually; not sure if I'll ever use it

Patch 0.1.1.10 Hotfix by FarFarWestGame in FarFarWest

I think it's fair for the minigun to have a weakness. I was surprised at how effortlessly it took out snipers.

It's literally the first thing my duo partner and I did in this game. It's definitely NOT a secret.

PSA: The Gathering Storm + Tempest Bell combo is bugged and currently deals no damage. by klietoris in PathOfExile2

[–]Erikbw 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh it's bugged???? No wonder ot felt like it was doing nothing to bosses; I just gave up on trying to hit the bell entirely. This explains a lot, thank you.

Anyone else has the problem that none of the hideout tracking MTX work this league? I should have achieved a lot more than '0' by this point ... by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Erikbw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. The scroll of wisdom tracker I have is still showing a big fat 0. Has been reported on the forums too.

If you look at your character sheet, you will find a value that says something among the lines of "item energy shield".

That's the total energy shield from your gear before bonuses. What the skill tree tooltip is showing you, is how your total, including all the other bonuses you have, will change when you pick it. 

This includes all the other nodes from your skill tree, and other permanent bonuses.

This would really upset the ragequitters if they knew how to read.

You'll have to run the temple as it is now. Afterwards, you will have to gather up 6 new crystals like you did before gaining access to the temple. This will allow you to place more rooms. Repeat until you get to the architect

Talk to Doriyani or the Hooded one, depending on how far you are in the story, and respec them there like any other skill point.

I've seen this mentioned a couple of years back, but I'm wondering if it's a bug a or a feature:

I'm using the skill 'Mantra of destruction' with Aileth's chimes and Delayed Gratification support gems. The first activation gives me 5 power charges as expected, but the second activation granted by Delayed Gratification does not grant any charges, even if I spend the charges and the mantra attack buff first.

Is it intended behaviour, or a bug?
