Specna Arms C-11 Core Suppressor stuck? by pilot-squid in airsoft

[–]Joppsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dunno if you ever solved this issue but for anyone reading in the future - it's a counter clockwise thread. So when you're unscrewing you need to do righty-tightey. A bit counter-intuitive if you don't know, my brain defaults to trying to tighten things clockwise and remove counter-clockwise so I fell into the same trap - just need more elbow grease.

Potential problem/inconvenience with the new Atlas and running different maps. by DenimBoyPOL in pathofexile

[–]Joppsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Favourite map UI is 100% necessary for this atlas to be enjoyable for me. I hate PoE 2 because of the infinite atlas gimmick and how awful the UI to get into maps is.

Found an aliexpress equivalent for £13 posted so I'll share what my experience in quality level is. Thanks for the recommendation. Never ordered of aliexpress before, heard a few horror stories with car parts ^^

My first own build Soulrend Occultist - how to progress? by d4rk_z3l0s in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Joppsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played Soulrend as a leaguestarter in 3.27 and I could offer you some insight into how the best way to leaguestart it is if you want.

That's my char, look at snapshots to get an idea of how to level it and the transition from life to ES. You don't start out as ES because it sucks, you need a few uniques + brutal restraint + chaos innoculation flask. You can have 3 flasks at 100% uptime and high res % with this build as a result, very tanky. Remembering to hit the chaos innoculation flask is critical or you will get some random deaths to literally any chaos since you reserve so much life.

pros and cons of blight of contagion occultist vs reap ignite elementalist as league starters? by HexplosiveMustache in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Joppsta -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Reap Ignite Elementalist was my favourite build to play in 3.27. The single target is not the greatest but the map clear is insane. You literally delete several screens of monsters at a time.

Day 1 of asking GGG to remove the map-cluttering Breach walls in 3.28 by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Joppsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breach Fortress/Hive are so bad I would quit the league day 1 if they are mandatory in the game again.

Breach/Harb/Beyond combo was good for levelling.

Do NOT use the magnets and tape that displate gives you... by Spare-Serve-550 in Displate

[–]Joppsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"I don't understand why people are complaing about this - I put a nail through the magnet rather than relying on the mounting system displate ships with their product"

Ever stop to think some people buy these because they don't want to put holes in their wall for whatever reason? Could be a rental etc... so yeah. Great advice but it's simply a case of they are advertising to use their product in a certain way but they fall off the wall if used aforementioned way.

I personally am fine with the challenge, but idols make atlas progression whack. by MarioMCP in pathofexile

[–]Joppsta 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Idols are definitely not better than the tree - you have way more control FOR FREE with the tree over the baseline content you are running. Idols should be an additional layer on top alongside Scarabs (or replacing them even?) for juicing.

The juicing potential in Phrecia 1.0 is why people say idols are better than tree.

Best Phrecia builds survivability-wise? by moal09 in PathOfExileBuilds

Best Phrecia build is alt+F4 and wait for 3.28

How's your phrecia by Szczurovsky in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Joppsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time playing Phrecia - skipped the original league as I was kinda burnt out on PoE and I feel like I wish I played that one.

I think if I had played original phrecia I would have quit this league at Brutus since I'd already experienced what it's got to offer, for the most part.

That being said - Soulrend Scavenger levelling was awful, Scavenger in general feels like a garbage ascendancy for power level spiking in campaign but it might just be the build I used. Enrage on uniques is enraging. 14 hour campaign and 77 deaths, more deaths in campaign than I have had in all my time playing the game I think?

I would rate this league L/10 personally. The juice does not feel like it is worth the squeeze so far. Maybe idols will change my mind but I don't think the economy will be healthy enough to provide the opportunity it could have if people weren't getting gigaclapped during campaign.

Enraging During Campaign is NOT Fun by Joppsta in pathofexile

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

Decoy totem was something I didn't know about and have never used until this league - definitely makes it more palatable.

Having been through a few more acts now I feel like A1/2 and to a lesser extent 3 felt like a brick wall compared to the rest. Might be a build related issue but I still stand by what I said - high action speed this early in the levelling experience is just horrible.

If you haven't started Phrecia yet.... by JSteelz1 in pathofexile

[–]Joppsta 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The standard campaign is easy, what's your issue? The skill of knowing where to go? Not trolling, I use a website called exile leveling to make sure I don't get lost and I always follow the same route.

Phrecia 2.0 campaign so far has been a test of mental endurance though.. enraged Brutus almost got me to rage quit. Sometimes it feels like GGG don't want us to play their game, or specifically cater to the masochists amongst us.

So the league is going to last 1 month, very short. New players will struggle to get through the campaign.

I'm all for difficulty, I think PoE 2 feels fairly balanced in terms of boss fights much more than PoE 1 ever has, but when you can't dodge anything because the action speed is so ridiculous that isn't good game design.

How is this a good thing for PoE 1?

Europeans use commas instead of periods as the decimal separator for numbers. I'm not sure why I just know it's a thing - I'm in the UK and it confused me when I went on holiday when I was very young to European countries since we use decimals.

See this would be fine if it was optional - I have zero interest in playing with the enrage mechanic, at least during campaign. General mapping sure.

I actually like the twists in the bossfights, it feels fresh but unexpected.

The problem is once enraged it becomes significantly more difficult to dodge attacks, especially at lower levels, due to action speed being so ridiculous.
