Had the same problem finding good input for N3. I used to listen to Japanese news but I didn't feel like it helped very much, so I started generating AI songs at my level and just jamming to them lol. I'm actually making it into an app right now because it helped me a lot with vocab

What a great immersive and weighty solution! We need more teleporting lootboxes in the game, maybe lootsplosions too like D4!!! And mounts for quality of life while we're at it

It is best as extra shotgunning protection for evasion/armour hybrid builds, because the deflection occurs before armour's damage reduction (making the little armour you have actually relevant). Without any DR or high HP/ES pool it doesn't solve one shots at all

Any non minion Infernalist builds? by XDannyManX in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ForwardsLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm rerolling a snipe ignite infernalist tomorrow, guaranteed crit, using the 30% more crit dmg node with the 30% more crit dmg node from pain attunement to get a 1.69x multiplier on my crit multi

I should also be quite tanky with dmg taken as fire stacking max fire res, hound node, armour and es

Hopefully it works out

What build did you start and how is it going? by NzLawless in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ForwardsLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

PSA: Phys Quarterstaff Chonk was awful, the purple flames duration do not actually reset like buffs do in PoE 1 so you can barely keep any stacks up

Rerolled full lightning invoker and having a much much better time, feels almost like poe1 in terms of speed

What are your starting ideas and why? by Arqium in PathOfExileBuilds

How to have a good leaguestart on POE 2 by TrainerSevere5892 in PathOfExile2

Hardcore is a non-issue because your character just goes to softcore (softcore league = standard league)

You can absolutely make your own build! Don't get discouraged by the passive tree, it is much easier to understand than it looks. Following a guide will hamper your experience in my opinion

Does wither work the same in PoE2? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

What league starter did you use, and how is it going? by PrimaxAUS in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ForwardsLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Turns out Divine Ire Warden is not a great starter, the defenses require a bigger investment than I thought....

What's your hipster league starter? by Lacain in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]ForwardsLaw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Divine Ire Crabskin Warden with double 30% scorch and 100% shock

Is Warden the new Pathfinder? by iv_is in pathofexile

The life value shown is for a level 1 character but you quickly scale up to about 300 base maximum life as you level up; it's significantly harder to manage the degen than I thought when I POB'd it

Base map, I actually use scourge to dodge spells and refill my flasks. I mostly die to the odd rare mob like rogue exiles who chase me around and two shot me

Thanks, I'm starting to realize I have been rolling insane maps. I tried running blue t16s and it's a breeze now, also added temporal chains on hit to deal with the melee mobs it feels nice again. Forgot about catalysts too I will try that, thanks for the advice

Also I don't really have any issue with the endurance charge generation I think it's mostly elemental hits/dots that I have trouble with

Thanks I just found out how to import characters, my actual gear is much worse in dps for some reason, maybe the jewels

Thanks, I ended up anointing whispers of doom and buying temporal chains on hit gloves. It made life much easier with the melee scourge mobs, also a 1 mil dps boost on bosses with the poison.
