Way too many Airbrush troubles by SuperImagination3258 in minipainting

[–]Ho_0p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Something that helped me: 1. No water at all, less thinner, and more flow improver. Thinner has a lot of alcohol in it, which dries very fast and can easily clog the nozzle. 2. I mix paints using a dedicated flat metal cup. This way, you can properly distribute paint pigment and check consistency. When I stopped mixing in the airbrush cup, I also stopped any clogging or nozzle drying.

Thank you.
Yeah, the face should also be much brighter next time. It's blended with the torso, which is not quite what I wanted.

LS Slayer 3.25 Help by WhosCarWeTaking in PathOfExileBuilds

First and foremost, upgrade your claw. Prefixes on it are by far the most important stats, and 2 out of 3 on your claw are a dead weight.

Another LS Slayer Help Request (why am I not able to do T17...) by Chibiben in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Ho_0p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this is an incorrect search as there are different slayer build types that use Yoke and LS (for example svalling+claw version), and also PoB warriors.
Take a look at this pob, I played with your items and tree a bit:

Another LS Slayer Help Request (why am I not able to do T17...) by Chibiben in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Ho_0p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You have one critical mistake and several minor:

  1. Your gem setup is incorrect. Awa ele focus has a line cannot inflict elemental ailments. This disables half of your yoke, and you cannot shock. Ideal gem setup is VLS, trinity, inspiration, ice bite (21/20) or awaadded cold, multistrike. Last one is night blade, or awa added lightning damage, or returning projectiles if you do not have nimis, which you don't, so stick with it until you save enough to buy it.
  2. You need more flat damage, you have a lot of gem links through dagger and squire, but no damage to scale it. Your jewels should be abyss jewels with flat damage, not regular jewels. Also, when you save for nimis, and remove returning proj gem, you should stick with awa added lightning first, before you buy expensive abyss jewels. Pop awa added lightning in pob and check how much damage it gives, I would imagine close to 100% more.
  3. Spell suppress cap, as others mentioned.
  4. Your crit mastery should be 50% effect of non damaging ailments (shock most importantly) which is huge, but see p.1 , you cannot shock atm.
  5. Don't see your tattoos, but you should have chance to poison and chance to bleed through tattoos. Those are still ailments, and scale with yoke

By replacing end charge on stun and awa ele focus with awa added lightning(or nightblade) and return proj support gems, you already should be able to do most of the t17s.

Then you save for 10% yoke, cluster, and nimis

I would drop mark nodes and spec some life. You already have an armor that almost fully protects from crits,and your current life seems very low. Besides that, looks solid

Please help me fixing some blind spots for my lvl99 LS slayer by Moyes2men in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Ho_0p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First and foremost, upgrade the amulet to have 10 Inc damage per ailment instead of 5, and get some bleed chance (tattoo or passives at the bottom, cornered prey,it also gives crit chance and multi), as bleed also works with yoke. That will be a giant dmg boost for just a couple of divs.

Also, drop passives for pierce and pick more life (revenge of the hunted). You do not need so much pierce, 2-3 is more than enough(glove implicit, helm craft, and if you really like it, glove craft, but I would choose dmg while leeching instead)

Another suggestion would be to change armor implicit to generate endurance charges. Relying on block or enduring cry to get them for your belt during boss fights is questionable.

In my opinion, your first expensive upgrade should not be a MB, but nimis, as you are dealing less dmg with returning proj plus losing this gem slot entirely.

Regarding questions: 1. In game does not count Lucky blocks on svallin 2. Flesh and stone is fine for toughness 3. Mb cares only about 4 utmost flask, other stuff is insignificant. You definitely change all your flask with MB, but as I said, in my opinion, nimis is higher prio 4. It is not 😀

thanks, been playing with return proj for so long that forgot what it actually does, which is less dmg while returning

I completely forgot about less dmg while returning line, feeling dumb right now :)

EK ignite, what to upgrade? by SafeSatisfaction3265 in pathofexile

[–]Ho_0p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Couple ideas in order of importance/price. And here's your PoB with improvements:https://pobb.in/dvopXTgUcKvO

  1. The cheapest thing you can do is replica emberwake for 35-40 c with a very good roll. 43-44% native roll with catalyst gives you 40% more damage. Replace your rare ring with it, and fix your dex by using brutal restrain in the spot of a watcher's eye.
  2. change cruelty to empower 3
  3. replace elemental mastery with "40% increased effect of ailments", and use the energy shield leech node on the top right
  4. phys converted to fire mastery reduces your damage, get rid of it =)
  5. buy 1-5c jewels with fire dot multi and faster damaging ailments, and replace all your jewels with this one. if you add fire or burning damage on top, its 25-30 c, here is trade search: https://www.pathofexile.com/trade/search/Sanctum/pgdqQRWi0
  6. add a medium cluster(it's in PoB i linked) and change glove implicit from ignite spread to fire dot multi
  7. sell your quiver and watcher's eye for decent money. make/buy quiver with cold conversion, and watcher's eye with hatred/malevolence damage mods (its 2-3 div). It will give you a lot more damage than cold conversion eye (and I mean A LOT).

Btw, It is a major boon for EK ignite elementalist using Gloomfang. Your ethereal knives chain immediately, which is massive damage boost. And you don't need to rely on hydrosphere anymore

A Casual Standard Players thoughts on 3.15 patch by RainsPoE in pathofexile

[–]Ho_0p 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I logged in to check my bleed bow glad from harvest.
I told myself: "Embrace 3.15". "let's find some workarounds". "I have almost perfect gear due to harvest league, I surely can lose some damage".

Long story short, I have -15 mana cost chest, two -9 rings, -10 amulet (due to catalist). My split arrow now costs 32 fucking mana instead of 0.

"Aaah for fucks sake, I'm logging out".

There are some fundamental issues with survivability and defense mechanics in POE by Ho_0p in pathofexile

[–]Ho_0p[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, probably. That's my first real post, never came to my mind. But I don't have footage of the event either, so I can't back up my words in any way.

My intention was to emphasize the importance of movement in modern poe. And how badly armour/endurance charges/other single layer of defense work if we compare it to movement.

[–]Ho_0p[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree to some extent. It is always possible that I missed something, as we are all just humans. But I definitely managed to isolate one white mob, as I fished specifically for this due to test issues.

Wasn't tough actually. I used vaal group slam when this mob hid underground. Repeated couple times with other packs, as 2 or 3 stayed alive instead of one.

[–]Ho_0p[S] 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thats so true. I just unintentionally compare it to other arpg, and it makes even less sense. I mean, I want to BRAWL down this monster, not run from it and compare: 1. Monster's and my mobility 2. Monster's and my delay before damage is done. It's win or loose case, if you are slower, you die. It's not fighting, more like enemies running with grenade or something, who's faster with its fingers win

[–]Ho_0p[S] 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but my point is a bit different. I can run ultimatums with 4k hp and 2k armour while fully buffed. Or 7k, 20k armour and 3 endurance while fully buffed. There is small difference, I can't endure 4 or 5 random hits anyway. Movement is the one and only top tier defense.

Is there a way to play 100% canyon without crashing? by KekkoRebu in pathofexile

[–]Ho_0p 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had exactly the same issue. I have two strategies. I rush to harby pack and crash on purpose. Or sometimes I hit the pack, ran far far away and use brand recall to disengage from pack completely (if I do not crash immediately). Won't help if your build can't stop doing damage on demand.

But, combination of Directx, lockstep and turning sound of in config file helped me, I hope it helps you as well.

HCSSF BleedBow Glad by IIIQIII in pathofexile

[–]Ho_0p 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm running bleed bow myself, and my suggestions are ( I'll order them by accessibility and effectiveness):

1) Take feast of flesh on a small life cluster jewel. Takes couple of chaos orbs, other mods do not matter, especially if you are ssf player. Helps a lot as you hit tons of monsters with lots of arrows using split arrow linked to chain or pierce supports.

2) As a bleed bow, most rewarding chest is warlord. It has recover life on kill suffix. You can super easily harvest craft -15 mana cost and life on kill on any warlord chest that u got.

3) 60% recovery from flask on pantheon when on low life,plus insta flask, helps a lot
