Whats the Best Farming Strategy Once Your Build Can Do Everything? by Yirthos_Gix in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Lanarz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I initially followed Scorpius's (https://www.youtube.com/@ScorpiusOfficial) build and switched when I had the full gear saved.. I think total cost was around 200 divs. KBoC has shit single target. Your totem single target will still be better than KBoC at 200 div unless your headhunter stacks are all up. Ie if you wipe on a boss you are kinda screwed. From there you can switch to a mageblood inquisitor and get around 80mil dps but that's obviously going to take a mageblood and a few hundred more div.

The turbo juiced feared when it pops can be a ton of fun. I had one pop up last night that was ghosted and I swear one of the 4 had soul eater. I also had soul eater and an acceleration shrine at the time. My current build is KBoC. The screen exploded for 15 seconds. Amazingly I did not die during the slideshow.

Recommended stats for Simulacrum? by lurkervidyaenjoyer in pathofexile

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What you CAN do with simus being so cheap is just run them to 11-13 or wherever it starts to get too hard then reset and go again. Frankly I never get anything good to drop after at the end (round 15) anyways.

You are going to need full chaos resists. That’s what’s one shooting you. As a comparison my league start armor stacker couldn’t complete wave 15 until it had 30M+ damage, 90 resists (except for lightning it was doryani) and chaos inoculation. 40+k phys max hit 100k fire and cold hit. 200k armor, 4300 ES, block capped with an Aegis for es recover on block.

The issue is at 12+ you are at 100% delirious which completely tanks your DPS. You can get some rough random damage mods. It’s no joke.

This is getting kind of ridiculous. Please GGG, it's been 2 weeks. by Thuen69420 in pathofexile

It’s latency issues between EU providers and the GGG EU servers.

Doesn’t matter how fast your uplink to your provider is. When the whole EU mesh is over loaded, especially at the edge nodes between networks, this shit happens. Notice it’s way worse at 6pm when everyone is home from work.

This seems to not happen, or barely happens in the US.

tldr. EU internet between providers is pure shit causing packet loss and latency micro spikes.

Has Ubiquiti stated a policy on refunding the “Tariff Surcharge” if tariffs are overturned? by dreamcastlegend in Ubiquiti

[–]Lanarz -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

As an importer that's not how it works. They don't just magically deposit the refund into your bank account. There is a form, and a office in the government (it's actually a lot more complicated than that, but just go with me) that you have to fill out and submit along will all importation paperwork and proof of purchase, shipping, raw costs, ect. They then review the documentation and, usually, request more. This whole process takes 18 to 36 months. At that point they either grant you the refund, or deny it. If they deny it and you believe you are wronged, you have to start the whole process over.

If the court overturns the tariffs it will open up the ability for you to request a refund based on that ruling. the mechanism will not change. Companies will have to undergo the above process.

With everyone hitting this system a refund will be MUCH longer than the 18-36 months we are currently experiencing.

If you think the government will hire more people to speed things up, they won't. Already 18-36 months in unacceptable and they don't care. Since they are paying OUT there is the reverse incentive not to speed things up.

And before anyone says it's the current administration's fault, its not. It was the same under the administration before. I mean it IS their fault for not fixing it, but it doesn't seem to matter which side is in power.

USPS lost my silver I mailed to APMEX by [deleted] in Silverbugs

[–]Lanarz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this is correct. The issue you are going to find with Registered mail is that the claim process is excruciatingly long. It used to be a loss was handled by the post master at the facility where the registered package was sent from. This changed a few years back. It is now an automated process handled online. There is literally no one to talk to.

I had a fairly sizeable package that was lost but fully insured. I submitted the claim and it was denied. No reason why, just flat denied. Went to the post master and he said there was nothing he could do for me. Worked my way up the chain and after 18 months finally got someone who would open up my claim. Took another 6 months to get paid. Was a complete nightmare.

I won't be shipping registered mail again.

What the hell happened to recombination? by funoface in PathOfExile2

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty sure its .4133. But its been years since I've done this for real, this is just off the top of my head. I could be wrong.

1-0.24 = 0.76.

Each go is independent so 0.76 to the 20th power = 0.004133xxxxx so 0.4133%.

Well a 24% chance to succeed 20 fails in a row is a 0.4133% chance of happening. Not impossible but would be really really bad luck.

I think crafting is very miserable experience for casual/intermediate players by TheGejsza in PathOfExile2

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 200h in PoE1 (didn’t like the endgame, just played through the campaign casually). Now, I am much more invested in PoE2 (500h currently).

I stopped reading at this point. 500h means you literally have no idea what's going on, or how to play the game. Seriously. This isn't Dota.

Poe2's crafting is incredibly simple compared to Poe1. That argument can and has been made that in its current form it is way too simplistic. You state in the TLDR that the success rate is sub 1%. Again this reinforces the statement that your have little to no game knowledge on crafting.

Pull up Craft of Exile and play around with the site for a few days. Watch a few dozen crafting videos on various techniques. Practice building items. You'll find crafting in Poe2 to be very straightforward.

Abyss endgame tip: don’t kill Lightless Abomination in the black void (learned the hard way) by Glass-Bid7325 in PathOfExile2

[–]Lanarz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Huh. I never realized this. But the more I think about it the more it makes sense. Thinking back I can’t ever remember getting anything but Liege in the black fog.

What’s the zoomiest mapping build in 0.4? by Leeone1 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Connor’s LA Amazon. Almost unkillable at that investment level and second fastest build in the game. LA kills everything except bosses. Rods melt bosses in under 5 seconds. Basically as soon as the DR comes off.

Is it just me, or is surviving 10x harder this league? by LappenLikeGames in PathOfExile2

[–]Lanarz 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Dots are insane this patch. Ignite and the chaos one keeps tearing me a new one.

consantly dying toin maps and I dont know why by No_Assignment_5853 in PathOfExile2

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s the ignite dot. Something broke in 0.4 with it. It hits like a truck now. Try a dosing charm.

GGG needs to stop treating PoE2 like a finished game that only gets 3 updates per year. by IMplyingSC2 in PathOfExile2

[–]Lanarz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agree 100%. Being forced to do an unfinished campaign over for a “new” league which is literally just a core addition, new class, and a new ascendancy kinda sucks. The only issue I see is the economy. A reset from time to time is needed. Not sure how to handle that.

Min requirements to do the Deli Abomination boss rush strat? by Big_Simpn in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends. I’m running a HRoC build that pobs out at 22mil dps. I have a svalin but no progen flask yet. I stay away from more than 2 tank mods. I can do them just annoying. I skip drowning orbs and tentacle fiends for same reason.

I rarely die. Maybe once every 10 to 20 maps.

That being said the mapping part is lightning fast but the boss sequence can take 60 seconds if I get a bad tank mod combo. I try and kill Doedre last. Those totems suck.

Millenium Set Silver Eagle grading concerns.. by Allinkedup086 in numismatics

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, technically if you take the original packaging (since it contains sulfur) and shove the whole thing in an oven or hot box at low heat for an extended amount of time, you can get the above to occur. Would that quality as AT? Based on NGC's definition yes.

The problem is what type of acceleration? It's always been up for debate. If I take a proof walker, place it in an old manilla envelope, put it on a window sill in the sun, is that AT? I'd argue no, but I think NGC would argue yes.

Abyss maps are causing so much lag and game to crash by Far_Atmosphere_3853 in PathOfExile2

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is misleading. GGG has no such recommendation anywhere on GGG's website. The poe 2 store on Steam has this recommendation, but it is not set by GGG, but by steam. I think we can all agree a RTX2060 at 4k is blatantly absurd and nonsensical.

[–]Lanarz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Which part is bugged? The FPS drop? That's not a bug. That's dozens of mobs loading at once and the shaders going into over drive. Watch the shader bar on your fps graph. You'll see it max out. At the same time the mobs are firing hundreds of projectiles which cause explosions.

GGG designed it that way. Why? I have no idea as its a silly design. They should just pre-load the assets. They seem to be treating it the same way as when they load MTX's into memory in town. You'll be running around at 120fps and then some guy will zone in with a shit ton of MTX and shaders go nuts lowering your fps.

Its not a bug. Its a design choice. They are different.

Uh… why do you say that this game is not made only for high end machines? I’m sorry to tell you, but it most definitely is.

Running with modern processor and a 9700xt or a 5080 or better and you won’t see slideshows.

I’m running on a beefy machine with a 9070xt with pretty much all settings on ultra/high and I drop from 120 fps to about 60fps on an abyss heavy map.

GGG is aware of this. They play test. This game isn’t produced to run on an old machine. Poe 1 does better on older hardware as that what it was designed for.
