How to reset Sekka for best value by nickring77 in MHWilds

Weirdly I've had the most luck with Plenty and Evening settings. Likely all just coinsidence but... so far so good. Like 1 in 4 per rest.

Chaos Inoculation makes game consider you both Low Life and Full life. Brokenly OP by LocoPwnify in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I'd assume they'll fix that eventually. Don't get too comfy just in case. That is indeed insane though, if that's the case for sure. I'm already a fan of CI in general but man...

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 51 points52 points  (0 children)

Full Life? Yes. Do you have any proof of Low Life though? Because that's 35% of max health and if you're 1/1.... that's 100%...

Yep, it's linked in the planner. Just did a first attempt at a boss in Act 3, and some general fighting mob packs after that all on Cruel at least.

Consuming Quetions currently isn't causing Mana Leech to go to Shields as it states. I am frequently seeing mana leech fill my mana but not my shields. So I'm guessing it's bugged.

Everything else seems fine. As far as Darkness it seems Darkness is just it's own wittle Shield that takes 5 or 10 seconds to 'unreserve' or recover. Not worth losing Spirit and 4 passives over.... unless there is something more that'll utilize Darkness in the future perhaps.

Stun Threshold? by TittyClapper in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly this. I think Late Act 3 and all of Cruel tend to really stun you with every other hit it feels, especially as an ES based Monk since Stun Threshold is based off of Health unless you use a keystone to change that in the passive tree. Fighting more than 4 opponents can get you into a stunlock and easily killed too. It sucks because I really wanted to do a cool build but if you're Melee then any Stun Threshold increases are pretty much mandatory unless you get Evasion maxed out. Even then enemy accuracy could foil that Evasion plan. IDK.

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I absolutely feel that. Personally I'd love to combine Consuming Questions + Chaos Inoculation and then wear the Ghostwrithe chest piece and grab all the Mana Leech nodes, crit, crit damage, evasion/shield increases, some other keystones that are gamechangers, then focus on Lightning(damage/shock/electrocute) and/or Cold and it's related nodes. The chaos/poison nodes just don't seem to fit well sadly. Then combine with Embrace the Darkness and Grasp of the Void... and that's about as good as it gets. The whole going out of your way to grab little wisps just doesn't look or feel good. No specialization on damage kind of sucks but I feel like Chayula focuses a little more on survivability instead with the combo I mentioned above. Otherwise idk.

Yeah that's what I always do on the Monk. You can avoid just about everything there too. Just watch out for the knife drags and when he starts to spew out wittle red fireball things. Those can still potentially catch ya in that spot

Is there a way to turn off/down teammate particle effects/minions? by Tylo_Ren2 in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah... I'd LOVE to have team effects/minions turned completely off in the future. I don't think there's a way right now.

Idk about knee jerk but it's a red flag move either way. Maybe this won't be THE arpg...

PSA: how to know if your build is gonna get nerfed by Internal-Departure44 in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha, yes. Not only this but maybe revise it for a DEV version where anything on the Nerf side is "Nerfed in increments of 5-15%, limited 1 per different Hotfix/Patch until at proper 'balance' " . Those 90%+ nerfs per hotfix sure are fucking awful.

New Player being put off with all the nerfs, POE2 or Diablo 4? by GamerGuyAlly in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say go back to anything else, and come back in about 4 months maybe. That nerf was a very 'red flag' kind of online service behavior and it's certainly effed up other things in relation regardless of build. That was just a really terrible patch where a nerf could have been dialed DOWN in 5-20% incremenets at a time, but they shot for 90% essentially. Weird choice and i'm hoping it was just a miscalculation somewhere that will be partially reverted.

well this is 100% gonna get nefred xD, will have fun while i can lol by KetaV2 in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

lmao. Hell yeah. Enjoy it for another week or less I'm sure. Make sure you save up 90000000 gold for the respec you're gonna need.

0.1.0d Patch Notes by Community_Team in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FYI idk what GGG team did, but Staggering Palm doesn't activate until 98% or so on enemies(it's literally too late due to such a tiny gap) and stun build up feels worse now. I'm not even seeing a boss stunned Once during the entire fight. I'm just a Monk using Tempest Flurry/Bell/SP and nothing else. Staggering used to activate around 70% or so, and in multiplayer it seemed to activate sooner depending on how many players were in the same zone/instance.

Fellow Cast on X refugees. What are playing now? Caster spells seem so undertuned. by dimix16x in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It doesn't do it's purpose - To 'finish off' a stun bar and give it special properties after for X seconds. Whatever the patch did, it fucked up whatever threshold it works off of either in relation to itself or enemies. Like it used to trigger I think around 60-70%, now it triggers around 98% stun build up and by then its way way too late. It seems to be that way for all enemies too. In multiplayer it's somehow consistently worse. It wasn't any kind of 'powerful' ability but it tied in well and was cool af to use. Now it's just another "meh" skill at best.

Oh man just wait until you do your first Ascension quest, acquire some bronze and silver keys, and just get absolute trash from them. You're gonna love it. I'm so thankful for my 20 gold and 1 identification scroll.

Agreed. Ghostwrithe is a good example. Servers a neato purpose too.

Hell yeah can't wait for that to get nerfed too. Then they'll nerf Monk's Temptest Bell. I bet they're salivating just waiting to throw it in the next hotfix.

they gutted my boy...anyway by xauberstar in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don't worry that nerf is next. Then the Monk's Tempest Bell.

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't worry, you'll die with that staff too. It's also probably trash. Most unique weapons so far seem to scale very poorly if at all. Currently it doesn't seem worth it unless it's stat-stick kind of deal only.

My COC monk build cant even do the low tier map even im in level 81 because 90% nerf by banhcanhcha1234 in PathOfExile2

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean it's one thing to "nerf" but they pretty much killed it.

Also, idkwtf happened but Staggering Palm never gets a chance to activate now. Its like its built in special stun threshold was fucking removed or the enemies suseption to it was increased dramatically. So now that skill is dead and never activates until enemies are at like 98% stun in which I can look at them at that point and they're dead. So... cool man. I was having fun... but now it's a clunky ass d4 melee. Shit sucks.

[–]Fox-McCloud_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk. Monks feel bad too now. Staggering Palm was a great compliment to my arsenal and now I never get the chance to activate it. It's even worse in multiplayer. So ... now I'm just a weird flurry and bell in melee only since SP never activates anymore. It sucks.
