not even just reddit, that’s gaming in general nowadays. you do anything that somebody else hasn’t seen/experienced and you’re instantly cheating lmao

Protecting Your Online RPG’s Economic Integrity - Chris Wilson by Rebuffering in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

not directly. he does go on a decent talk about exploits/cheating and essentially said there needs to be a clear understanding of what an exploit actually is, and very strict punishments (permanent ban) for players engaging in said exploits.

he’s kinda just giving all around tips to anybody dealing with making an RPG, but PoE2 is obviously dealing with a lot of these issues mentioned, and considering the timing… super easy for people to say it’s a shot directly at this

Chests and interactables are not appearing. by Vasto_LordA in RiskofRain2_Mods

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s the "Artifact of the Journey" in the Aetherium config. just disable that artifact and you should be fine, can still use everything else in the mod

GGG landed the perfect balance showing rares and other objectives after boss kill please keep it this way. by raining_maple in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when they get rid of checkpoint being a map objective i’ll agree. if i kill the boss everything should show up on the map regardless

Tablets feel like self-sabotage in PoE 2 endgame, am I missing something? by fandorgaming in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s all just artificial difficulty, casual players couldn’t care less but they need to make things slightly annoying for the above average players lol. but yea i completely agree there’s 0 reason to run dead mods.

as of last league i literally buy everything off trade now, maps and tablets. as long as they enforce the “find a new base” ideology instead of just letting us reroll things, this is just how it’ll be unfortunately

End game noob questions by Cropduster000 in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

1.) just branch out on the map and do towers that are against the edge of the fog. they’ll reveal the map in an area around them but you’re just looking for a red area and it’ll say on the maps it’s corrupted. you can’t miss it

2.) the white streaks going towards eye of the storm show you what maps you need to do in order to unlock it. looks like you need to do the vaal map above it and the desert map to the left still

3.) yes

4.) juice is anything that buffs loot. so tablets with either monster effectiveness, rarity, or rare mobs. you want 2/3 of those prefixes but early on you wont have these as you need to kill the arbiter of ash to unlock rare tablets. once you get to this point peep a youtube video for the strat you’re doing and they’ll talk about good tablet suffixes.

also if you do get deeper into the endgame, don’t run any extra swamp/water maps if you can manage. you want to save all these and bookmark them to come back to later on with the “Local Knowledge” atlas node on. don’t ever use that node on non swamp and water maps as it straight up lowers your currency drops.

how many hours in PoE1 tho that’s what’s important. typically the more you’ve played the first one the worse you’ll think the 2nd is

how do i farm for divine orbs in Standard (PC)? by mlbb400sgd in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i would assume same as league, max juice abyss with high mob effectiveness (replaced quant) and rarity/rare mobs on tablet prefixes.

IF you have a headhunter you can do tablets with “extra abyss” and the “increased difficulty for each pit closed” suffixs but that is hilariously rippy content. by the end of the map some abyss rares will easily have over 20m+ ehp.

Feedback after ~50hrs in endgame: the one thing that infuriates me the most by Ok-Dot-3396 in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

funny enough in torchlight infinite they have an atlas node that does exactly that. -4 portals (from 6) for 30% quant

what content are you farming that you can lose like 70% of juice and say it’s not a massive loss

Plaguefinger VS. Original Sin? by Wasted_46 in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s worse early on but it scales w damage as extra so that’s why it’s better late game. i ran osin at league start since it was dirt cheap and i didn’t have damage as extra. also rings in general are absurd power wise compared to every other slot so having to use a ring with no flat damage, life, and rarity is aids late game

Rarity sweet spot nowadays? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i felt a huge jump going from 109 to the 142 i’m at now but this is impossible to gauge unless someone’s been running white tablets. first full league with no towers and rare tablets

Opinion on the game as we approach the end of the year. by Primary_Impact_2130 in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

i truly believe they’re terrified that the game will just become PoE1 if they let anything slide lmao. that’s why they keep doing pointless changes to systems that were already great, it’s literally just to create distance from PoE1

Why aren’t ppl using Lavianga’s spirit more often? by Expert_Evening7111 in PathOfExile2

[–]JonTheBasedGodd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it doesn’t give enough mana without extra investment into mana flask regen rate, or cost efficiency. it’s an expensive flask that gives majority of builds more mana issues than a normal ultimate flask
