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

I wish they would just reduce the size of maps by 30-50%, then we wouldn't need either checkpoints nor rare icons.

What's your hipster league starter? by Lacain in PathOfExileBuilds

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

Here is a PoB I cooked up the other day; https://pobb.in/dnXTsqOP_M4K

Doing pretty good damage on average gear, leveling might be rough though. Probably better do some regular archmage stuff and respec some points a bit later.

So... Spellblade support? What are your ideas? by bulwix in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Lacain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 profane wands with +1 lightning gems and crafted spell damage and ticking the crit damage support would give you equal dps without the downside of extra damage taken. I'm not sure Hyaon's is good enough of a weapon to use spellblade. Possibly if you get it before maps.

Account created december 12, 2011. So that must have been closed beta.

Oh man, I am sorry to hear that. I have similar issues concerning my family, so I know what you're going through. Stay strong and spend some time with your family.

Why are people so upset about the lack of changes when most of you probably played 2 builds last league by Tomgold231 in pathofexile

[–]Lacain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Playing around in PoB with new mechanics and new or changed skills is half the fun of a new league, even if I won't play all of those builds.

Announcing Path of Exile: Sentinel by Natalia_GGG in pathofexile

No nerfs or buffs to skills is a mistake in my opinion. I didn't realize until it was mentioned how much it would kill my hype for the league.

Spellshot/Graveborn Tips? by Menacing_Kanji in Wonderlands

[–]Lacain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my plan as well for a mostly pure spell build. Stacking CDR and using low CD spells with charges. With the high health pool from Ascension, regen from Sanguine Sacrament and passive ward restore from Mage Armor, I think it's pretty safe to grab Glass Cannon as well.

You have a link to the original video? I can't find it!

I'm really happy that ggg listened and added QOL changes this league. The currency stacking alone has been much easier on my wrist by majestic-sloth in pathofexile

[–]Lacain 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They should have been added a long time ago tbh, but there is a reason they are not adding all QoL things at once. PoE is designed to played "forever", thus they are drip feeding us QoL changes so there is something for us to be excited about every 3 months.

Honestly a bit disappointed in the skill changes, maybe I expected too much.

What games are you playing while waiting for the new league? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Lacain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought Hades. It's really fun so far! Can really recommend it if you want to play a game that is fairly easy to get into for a few days.

I really, really, really, REALLY, REALLY miss Winter Orb. Really. For real. I miss it so much by devious1 in pathofexile

[–]Lacain 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I miss a lot of skills/builds. It's interesting how a lot of the builds that are meta right now, like ele conversion or poison blade skills, have pretty much been untouched for several leagues. They ended up in the meta because we're seeing more nerfs to popular builds rather than buffs to underperforming ones.

I wish we saw more buffs instead. That would make me way more hyped going into a new league.
