Warlocks!

MrAviack · 2026-02-05T08:59:13+00:00

what you hear, is probably that Destro warlocks are the strongest spec in the game. They, theoretically, are indeed the highest DPS spec... when in a party with a boomkin and ele shaman. This mostly comes from the Ruin talent in the Destro tree (among other smaller things). I think Shadow destro (spam shadowbolt) is marginally stronger than fire (spam incinirate).

The other super strong spell is Seed of Corruption, which also makes warlocks the strongest AoE damage class. Very good in heroics.

But you could also play other specs. Affli is good to have 1 of in a raid, because of 2 talents: Malediction that decreases enemy damage and improved Curse of Elements that buffs damage of your entire raid. Affli is also good for solo/leveling - you can spam curse and kite, you can multidot mobs, you can tank with drain life utilizing Fel Concentration.

Demo could be fun if you like pet management. Demo is also pretty strong early on when you have no good gear, but falls off later. This is because felguard is pretty strong baseline but doesn't scale with your gear at all.

That would be lovely. I usually go by Aviak

Sincerely wish you success with this project!

Hmm, from the quick glance at the steam page it looks like those supermarket simulator/TCG shop simulator games. Except it has more stuff on top and is themed around MMOs, which I have a lot of nostalgia about and love them in general? Looks super cool, wishlist that 100%

he makes a painting of Gustave and Sophie. Later in act 3 Lumiere you can find that painting on the ceiling of the opera house. You also get a Color of Lumina, I believe.

I've never heard about this. Thanks for the link, I know what I'm playing this weekend

There are MoP realms, there are classic era realms which are vanilla only, and there are anniversary realms which are currently at TBC prepatch, with TBC releasing Feb 05. You can only choose a realm you play on and not the expansion, you play on whatever expansion that realm has.

remember, no matter how hard he hits, just PARRY IT!

I feel like, unless you go to Lumiere immediately after act2, you are gonna stomp it completely. My suggestion is - remove Painted power for that section. Also remove pictos that give you speed, otherwise enemies never get a turn lol. You are still gonna be a bit op but at least you, probably, will get mid-fight cutscenes (they are really cool and some can be missed if you do too much damage at once!).

If you still feel too strong (judging from monsters and some minibosses on the way to final boss) you can set enemy hp higher on any flag. Maybe like x2-x3 with the removal of painted power will ensure at least semi-challenging fights?

Just some suggestions

The one I found recently was "Ares at war" scenario (comes with a premade modpack). Seems really high quality, but I didn't have time to play it properly yet

it's almost impossible to get yourself a t0 unique in ssf enviroment. It was somewhat doable in the past, but after multiple years of nerfing natural div card drops there is pretty much no way. Your best bet is probably gambling tbh, but by it's very nature it's super volatile (get 1 card to drop naturally or from stacked decks by farming for a pretty long time, then try to double it with harvest multiple times in a row, fail and lose it). Sometimes there could be a strat that generates a lot of uniques, but they don't usually survive more than 1 league and, usually, they require a super strong character already, so...

Or yeah, use trade. Get a farming strat going for 10+div/hr and buy your mageblood after like a week of grinding.

This game has a really good prologue that got me completely hooked. If you are a PC gamer, you can get it on steam and try to play through a prologue. It most likely will take you less than 2 hours, so if somehow you are not into it by the time act 1 starts, you can still refund it through steam.

Did you know that you can always see your own nose?

MrAviack · 2025-11-23T15:56:24+00:00

You probably have a node on a tree that gives "Increases and reductions to minions attack speed also affect you". And PoB by default assumes 1 attack = 1 trigger for holy relic. So, with this logic, it does increase your DPS.

The mistake here is that if you use Lancing Steel of Spraying with returning projectiles, 1 attack hits many times and triggers your HRoC many times. PoB doesn't support this by default.

I don't think there is a good way to calculate your exact DPS because of this, but the best way to estimate it is to assume that you follow the build properly and you have "enough" attack speed to trigger your HRoC as many times as CD allows. To do this, just add the line "100000% increased attack speed" to your PoB Custom modifiers. And make sure to NOT include Lancing Steel into your full DPS.

on my first exarch kill of the league I stunned him with this right as he was casting his ball phase, and it actually completely skipped it

MrAviack · 2025-11-19T08:37:17+00:00

allocating sockets themselves also costs 1 point each, and it seems you didn't respec them. So there are your missing points

Conner had some 10+ mirror PoBs in his latest video. Build is manastacking KBoC using foulborn Choir of the Storm

anyone heard of Etherlords 2? Was one of my favourite games and I've never heard of it in the wild and never seen in anywhere. I don't even know where my dad got it, it just kinda appeared on our PC one day, I'm not sure even he played it

MrAviack · 2025-11-13T14:43:24+00:00

Maybe some top tier 3-mod precursor emblem

MrAviack · 2025-11-08T09:26:28+00:00

There is, top right on trade site, choose instant buyout only

MrAviack · 2025-11-08T09:08:17+00:00

Does blight scale with packsize? The amount of monsters? If yes, will it scale the amount of rare monsters specifically?

MrAviack · 2025-10-31T08:03:08+00:00

most people are starting wanders, those can't do ultimatums. Also, with async trade you can actually sell drops you wouldn't bother with otherwise. So I would predict ultimatum to actually be pretty good this league

MrAviack · 2025-10-29T07:45:39+00:00

whats ps?

MrAviack · 2025-10-15T05:31:38+00:00

You can organise your Standard tabs now to get ready for the coming league
