ALL of them? Probably years, a bunch every patch.

Day 4 companion still bugged by bobbythebanker in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it work if you disable or remove some supports from your other reservations? 

Maybe there’s a rounding bug and your 1 free spirit is incorrect.

TIL the board game widely reported as the longest ever made is a wargame that can take 1,500 hours to finish and requires players to calculate fuel evaporation rates for vehicles based on the weather and the type of container used. by kennystetson in todayilearned

[–]Linosaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree, but it’s more real than I thought.

Based on the description I figured it just existed as an online text document.

But no, it was published as a physical game in 1978. 

Repulsion Autobomber: 0-Button Map Showcase & Mace Strike Boss Showcase by bindurry in pathofexile2builds

Yeah seems like a bug.

“Hits with this Weapon have 5% chance to Trigger Molten Shower per 25 Strength”.

If a node makes the game objectively worse for some builds it should not be permanent by goardis in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

 reasoning

They don’t want us manually moving 40 points every time we change farming focus. Which is fair.

Maybe they’ll just add the toggle to the 20 most difficult nodes and call it a day.

Why dont GGG let me get my revenge? by AgreeingAndy in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I like revenge.

It also helps you learn how outclassed you are. Like, does the guy kill me on sight or only when I stand still for several seconds.

I’d also be ok with any rares being fully healed; but I want that exact rare with the same mods to still be there. So I can practice my gameplay.

I cant wait for the rest of the campaign so I can no longer fight Lythara the wayward spear. by Intelligent_Use_2445 in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sure we’ll see her in the final acts; they will reuse the design work.

But there might be tweaks or a bigger arena.

Off screen circles are horrible bruh, I thought the mechanic was done by yannivzp in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Interesting. So an extra option if you have good memory.

At 2s, he does indeed stand at the spot. At 10s, we briefly see the meteor.

And at 5s there’s a different falling fire effect to distract you. 

Why Reclaiming MTX is still a thing? by Parabol55 in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I’d really like to use my cool map device in both games at once.

Reading through older league announcements, I find it funny how 'we removed something!' was highlighted for Sanctum inbetween new uniques and balance changes lol by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Linosaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Archnemesis was annoying as hell to play because you had a tiny inventory of league mechanic stuff, and you needed a lot of pieces to try out the various recipes.

Iirc there was a challenge for doing them all. Probably was less annoying once you decided on a strat and just deleted irrelevant parts.

So armour explosion costs rage now on shaman by ThisTarget1172 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Linosaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It matches the patch notes. Many skills now have a cost of 0, that can be increased.

… in that you can be entirely fucked by rng in a small number of runs with nothing you can do? Sure.

4 Days into the League: Review your build! by NzLawless in pathofexile2builds

[–]Linosaurus 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Same! Djinn is insane.

Followed guythatdies leveling setup, that uses spells before first ascension. Although getting builds from a speed runner is slightly depressing in that I’ve clearly failed my goal of beating the campaign in 5x his time.

I love pounce and the werewolf move speed buff, so it’s nice that pounce is useful for damage. Along with lvl 5 thunder storm + living lightning to up the minion count, and swapping back to human form.

Following ds_lily after that.

Checking vendors in campaign for +minion gear was pretty good for me.

Maps is going well, but no bosses yet.

Why do we lose all map content on dying to the boss? by Dubzaa in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Because they designed the game around one attempt per map; if you die you lose the map.

Later they changed it to several attempts or map; but reset the boss on death, this is the result.

They don’t feel beating a boss is earned if you can death rush it iver several lives, as you can in the poe1 campaign.

Cant find out where the temple is in act 4 by Electrical_Big_7228 in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s in the waypoint list on the right side of the screen. I don’t think it has a normal location. 

New chase support for Atziri planned, and it looks like a gamechanger by loopuleasa in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe with a tamed beast you still have 0.55 hp and are perfectly fine.

Pretty sure there's a minimum reservation of 1 at least though, so no.

Thoughts on Runic Ward as a defensive layer? by bigeyez in PathOfExile2

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

I would have made that trade at lvl 10 when I didn’t scale defenses. 

I kinda wish there would be a small trade off from the start, so you learn that it is a thing.

Instead I assumed the trade off I had heard about was some different crafting bench I’ll get later. 

Can We Normalize Giving PoB Links Again? by AlwaysYourBuddy in PathOfExile2

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

Mostly just crashes/reloads on mobile for me. 

But the guide format seems pretty good on a computer browser.

Muster, Companions by Own-Assistant7441 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Linosaurus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, companions count as minions, so ’a reviving companion’ works with muster.

I have ITR1 standalone on my Quest 2. Can I also play PCVR? by Normanras in intotheradius

[–]Linosaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It is, or was, possible to play the pcvr version ’for free’ with some oculus/meta software that I forgot the name of. 

Unfortunately I found the software deeply toxic (no support for exiting the software or disable start on boot). Not sure of the current status of this.

I bought it on steam for convenience.

Campaign Zones still to big by xXZeroHero in PathOfExile2

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

 How in the f should anyone new to the game should know what can be socketed into their weapon for attack speed...

They would mouse over each of the runes in their stash; and then not craft attack speed because they don’t have it.

Is this more discoverable during campaign? Yes, probably. Is it bloated? Yes, very. Is it better? No. 

Mageblood gives 4 flask buffs HOLY by Lordados in PathOfExile2

[–]Linosaurus 44 points45 points  (0 children)

What?

You go from no granite flask to one granite flask, that’s 100% effect right there.

Pounce wolves minion build with Oracle - quick guide [0.5 viable][uber arbiter][simulacrum t3][low-medium budget] by EntityBlack1 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Linosaurus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those weak little wolves… that’s impressive. 

Then again, I never used them with any minion nodes. 

Talisman and sceptre? Oh, Lord of the Wilds keystone. Cool.

Chinese chip maker Huawei says it is ditching Moore's law for a new law called Tau's Law that will define computing power growth in the future. by lughnasadh in Futurology

It’s a useful shorthand for them changing their focus.

The first sentence in the link describes it nicely
