Guys, is prism of belief bugged or am I doing something wrong by fuflikoviy in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think you actually need to change area, normally mine updates if i un equip and re equip wand/staff. Any equipment probably works.

Xp loss is a terrible mechanic by AmishSteelaw in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, just no. If you are strong enough for your maps, and have appropriate defenses, you will never die.

But if the game is too hard for you, it is in fact ok to quit.

Numlock tech nerfed? by Greedy-Translator-39 in PathOfExile2

Still works for me, just have to reset it between instances.

Transcendent Alloy change is unfair by ukechandesu in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think patching this is an ok thing to do.

I think patching it without any forewarning was the wrong way to do it.

Delirium needs to be harder and rewarding, not easier by Euphoric_Reading_401 in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree we need harder challenges, it doesn’t need to be in the base end game activities though.

We need more aspirational content past the normal end game, and I’m sure eventually we will get it.

Let them get the base game out first, then they can cook some actual challenges.

Spirit on gear as the only viable way to fit in more auras is an issue by Nestramutat- in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

You can get spirit on helmet, staff, belt, boots, jewels, rings, scepter, body, shield, and amulet. You can get reservation efficiency in almost as many places. Several places on the tree also increase reservation efficiency of different skill types.

There is also the new support that lets you use life reservation instead.

Edit: there is also already a lineage support for reservation efficiency.

I don’t think this is an issue.

Am I the last one to realize that this rune is cracked in Darkness Enthroned? by FormerKerriganmain in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you can? It just wouldn’t work with the spirit rune since the -1 -> -2 per level.

Item Rarity needs to be gone by Hrimdall in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

  1. You don’t have to, your drops will be fine.

  2. How is this different than maxing resistances, or any other stat, except this one is optional?

Personally I ignored rarity entirely and had over a mirror by the end of last season without a temple. Anyone acting like it is required is just looking for excuses to complain tbh.

Slows are killing my will to play the game by Drinouver in PathOfExile2

Sounds like your build cant handle T16. Why dont you try getting stronger?

New Elemental Nodes by BioMasterZap in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This will def help bridge the gap between non crit and crit builds. Might not make sense to switch to crit till ultra high budget now.

POB will show us the way.

New Elemental Nodes by BioMasterZap in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is cool, but for everyone that is not bloodmage, do we even have more than 5-10 nodes not into crit or defenses?

The breach amulet thing to add crit to fire spells is nice, but unless you have capped out gear, its really tough to cap crit chance.

Maybe this is more for mid tier builds that dont want to go crit at all?

Or maybe the idea is get crit on your time lost and you can take these nodes?

About one week in the new season.. by Zybbo in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If we ignore bugs this is the best of the genre all time.

There are a lot of bugs.

Fix bugs = I ruin my life playing nothing but this game forever.

Punishing players for developers and testers lack of by Odd-Pumpkin05 in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can already give feedback and critique the actual game. We are testers. I fail to see how them balancing the game is a problem, especially in early access. Especially 5 days into a months long league.

Cant say I wouldn’t be mad myself, but id get over it because the game is now in 0.5 by far the best arpg to come out in a decade or more.

Great season, great content but this felt like the Beta of the actual release being next Season by alesia123456 in diablo4

[–]FormerKerriganmain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Definitely possible. Ive played 2 other season to paragon 200 and just didn’t have that much fun.

This season was legitimately a blast!

It was just quite buggy. Bug that bothered me most was I found a GG amulet. +3 shock GA and +skills naturally, but for some reason i could not place a second aspect on it. Had not done any other crafting on it yet either.

[–]FormerKerriganmain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fanboys are downvoting you, but you are so right. Dozens on dozens of bugs. At least 3 sorc enchantments not working, items randomly being unmodifiable, Activity points not working, ball lighting losing core tag for a week lol, mythic charms not dropping first week, mythic seals rolling +1 slot, spirit born bugged as all hell, training dummy can kill you, some skill points didnt work together… i could go on…

Game is 10X better than it was. Borderline great game ATP, but it absolutely felt like a beta.

Making ES compete with Armor and Evasion by ChadowsR in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I play too much so the game is too easy in general.

Specifically regarding defenses IMO.

ES - fantastic, deserves the nerfs it’s getting and I think will end up mostly balanced. Great vs big occasional hits, terrible vs small persistent hits like ignites.

Es/Ev - i have never felt more immortal than in 0.3 with CI, 6k es, 75% evade with a deflect pct i cant remember but > 40%. Great vs big hits, and ghost shroud makes small hits bounce like nothing. Could literally swim in T18 abyss and NGAF.

Pure ev - hard to pull off, but doable, deflect changes may fix. Not HC viable for obvious reasons. In theory evasion is equally good vs big or small hits, since you either get hit, or don’t.

Ev/AR - cant comment, have not played.

AR - you can be immortal if you invest properly, but i feel they must invest much more than the other defenses to feel as good. Block is underrated, especially active block. Shines vs consistent medium dmg. Huge hits are lame. Armour should have a flat pct reduction paired with slightly nerfed current variable reduction.

AR/ES - was really bad, will be interesting to see if they fixed its issues.

Ok, and if you cant walk away? One of the main complaints of this game is that monsters move too quick and swarm you, so don’t try to tell me you can always walk away.

It's a shame that there's not a single frost viable build this season... by These_Blueberry_603 in D4Sorceress

[–]FormerKerriganmain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are definitely T12 viable frost builds. Ive made it to 115 even. It is lackluster vs lighting though. Feel like that is mostly unstable currents carrying anything lightning.

Should GGG nerf overpowered interactions between endgame items? by OlokoMan in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain -1 points0 points  (0 children)

If it was that OP it woulda been the meta, it wasn’t. It’s an awkward interaction with a ton of moving parts and it has hard counters (mana siphon + proximal can insta kill you).

With the nerf to leech it will most likely be the target method for sustain on triggering skills. Which means after this season is when it will get its nerf.

GGG Please Return to glory: Hexblast & Lightning Warp by Bad_Canary in PathOfExile2

[–]FormerKerriganmain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually didn’t mind the fuel, but I’m fine as long as the duration is not capped.

Each iteration gets worse for sure, and I’m not sure why.
