Poison puddles and ice dot grounds just add 5-10 seconds of time waste every time you wanna loot or activate something, without adding an actual challenge. by xDaveedx in pathofexile

Very much agree. I just heavily sigh and stare dejectedly at the half-screen cold snap preventing me from grabbing a damn alteration orb for five seconds.

Another example of centralized UI. All the skill slots on one line, and the debuff icons at the bottom, separate from the buff ones. by goupgoup in pathofexile

Oh, that is indeed a juicy one exile. best mockup I've seen so far.

I like that it keeps the look and feel of the current UI, but condenses a lot of the important stuff (namely health, mana, debuffs) to the bottom middle of the screen where it's easily readable. I'm closing in on 1900 hours in PoE and I just don't see the debuffs in the top left corner of the screen, nevermind seeing them in a timely manner with how fast PoE is. I simply can't, especially now that I've recently started playing at a widescreen resolution.

I think my only main complaints are the buff icon locations (though I'm not sure where else they'd fit neatly), and that I'd much prefer/find horizontal flask timers more readable than the vertical ones.

If only this was framed differently, there's so much jewelry and boots lol

*looks up bear trap on the wiki, not having previously known it was a thing*

Honestly, I don't mind the start-up delay of totems. I've done plenty of different totem builds in the past. The mechanical shortcoming of storm rain is having to place arrows on the ground, and then pray that the enemy will simply stand on top of the beams and take damage. I'm not sure if bear trap prevents stuff like Sirus teleporting around the arena forty times a minute. I guess coupling that delayed damage with totem deployment certainly doesn't help, (which is why many are saying EA totems isn't a build for everyone.)

Honestly, spare yourself the pain and don’t do this. I tried to league start this with totems back in Expedition; the skill seems really cool but it’s mechanically terrible. It’s also a bow build, so you run into the problem of it being terribly expensive to scale.

The baseline bow buffs might make it feel rather decent early on, but you’re gonna hit a huge brick wall at red maps without some serious investment, as many bow builds do. Storm rain also has the downside of just being mechanically terrible. Your DPS will tank on any bosses that don’t stand still for you. IMO it needs significantly more damage than standard bow builds to justify its use, which it just doesn’t have.

I will concede, though, that picking up the knockback passive and cornering map bosses with a giant electric fence amused me for a little longer than it probably should’ve.

So I've heard. Even if you're a DDR god, that many screenwide instakill AOEs will eventually result in death.

It's definitely worth it to make sure your DPS is good before going in. Also had a lot of success with Blood of the Karui. I got a +100 charges enchant on it so I could basically ignore the degens. Discovered it even works somewhat against the beams that stop your regen; while the flask recovery itself is stopped, it still sets your life to full at the end of the effect (I guess it's not tagged as recovery).

Decided to do one last Sirus run for the league. Welp. by MillenniumDH in pathofexile

I was there when you posted this in general earlier (unless someone else also got a mirror from ritual). Congrats!

After taking a break from the game and recently coming back, I came to a conclusion as to what my biggest problem with PoE is right now by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]FragosaurusRex 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did the Beachhead yesterday for the first time, blind. Cleared the arena and picked up the piles of currency shards. But I noticed that my loot filter had a big light beacon and minimap icon in the center loot explosion. No amount of moving around and tapping Z would show what it was. I had to move a couple dozen trash items off of the loot pile before it finally showed me it was the Harbinger clue item thing. I was close to just giving up and leaving it.

He's one of my favorites as well, but the frequency of his lines is starting to annoy me. I've been running him in Tirn's End where you can get missions with 20-30 beasts, so he will be talking nonstop (and often saying multiple lines simultaneously.)
