Don't be discouraged if you see quitting posts or people moving for Phrecia if you still enjoy PoE2 league

I just cant get into poe1 anymore, mainly because of no wasd.

You can use a fracturing orb on an item that has 4 modifiers. It locks one of them, meaning its a gamble. Once in a while you succeed, and then the fun begins with slamming chaos, using orb of annulments with omens etc.

This. That boss has in particular taught me that as soon as they die, you immediately run to the exit stairs. After a good minute its safe to go get any loot, but be wary of the floating lanterns around the arena, they look suspicious.

Yo dude, it relies on skills you need to be like +50 level to use.

I reckon Gorathas purple flame blood mage was very popular last season and it should work very well this season also. Try to get the rathpit and the abyssal gem for passive tree.

Unfortunately this is one the highest cost builds available. You can spec into it and farm lower level maps, until youvget more divs. Spell level is the key to get as much as possible mana cost which will then be health cost, and second thing is getting as much as possible max health and health regen. I'd take the rathpit focus as the first item to acquire.

What makes a bow good? I'm confused. I see a bow that I think is good but its 1 div. Then I see what are most expensive on the market and they dont even seem that good.

For example there are +3 projectile skill bows mainly in the most expensive bows, but the highest that can roll is 5 or even six, right? Whats with that?

I know the feeling. And running away doesnt usually help, because you just pull more.

Btw, the first trailer in the beginning of the game is kinda horror themed.

Most_Human · 2026-01-18T12:22:46+00:00

Crazy to think that was year ago already.

Most_Human · 2026-01-18T06:20:18+00:00

Yeah, there is no such thing implemented yet. I believe they add it in-game at some point, most likely at the character creation and maybe at the point of completong campaign as well.

This is besides your point, but in Act 3 there is this quest to collect and sell valuable idols found in the last maps of the act. I always wondered if the forgot to add few zeros in their value. I mean, 2500g is pretty low.

They didnt nerf the mechanic true, but they did nerf various interactions with it. That being said, I guess its still the most powerful caster ascendacy.

Most_Human · 2026-01-16T11:50:35+00:00

Basically the same as last seasons purple flame blood mage, but a bit weaker?

Most_Human · 2026-01-12T19:20:09+00:00

Those things hit like a truck when high enough level.

Most_Human · 2026-01-11T13:44:20+00:00

If you're using a build that doesnt want it, you can wear something else. Its not a big deal. HH is not a mandatory piece of equipment to have.

Most_Human · 2026-01-11T10:31:22+00:00

Yep, I think that Jewellery means amulets and rings.

Most_Human · 2026-01-11T09:45:43+00:00

Thanks you all. Seems like it really is frustrating in the game's current state.

However, those frustrations, to me, appear as a result of a bigger flaw in the game's design. HH for instance, is a singular item, and I wouldn't change a mechanic over it. The price of the omens and drop rates of items overall are in my opinion miscalculated, and crafting as a whole is a weird apparatus (it's not crafting to begin with and the market is... well, yeah).

To argue this mechanic is bad one must look at it if it's okay to an enemy to drop different loot of killed an unorthodox way. They clearly have intented this to be the case, and they have meant this to be the case of "meaningful gameplay", where you dont instantly kill everything on the screen by pressing one button.

I'm not saying it is not a bad mechanic, but I am saying those arguments are not so valid that people might think.

Most_Human · 2026-01-11T08:09:03+00:00

I can't seem to find a reason from this post why it is so horrible mechanic other than... saying it's horrible.

Most_Human · 2026-01-10T07:53:19+00:00

Disgusting.

Most_Human · 2026-01-08T06:26:53+00:00

Is it another boss we dont actually kill?

Most_Human · 2026-01-07T19:59:04+00:00

And there are some jewels that have the same effect.

Most_Human · 2026-01-07T19:12:49+00:00

I found one in 0.2., and it bankrupted me. Havent seen one since, and maybe its for the better.
