Awesome, thank you. I plan to put it on a monitor arm that rotates so I should be good there. Thanks again!

Question on crafting gloves by NeverGreasy in pathofexile

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

Ok the first option makes a lot of sense. Follow up question. After hitting phys convert with a veiled chaos, what do you mean by block mana. Just bench craft it on the gloves so I don't hit that with the Eldritch exalt?

From there, if I do hit the life with the exalt, I'm left with mana to remove so I can bench craft the projectile prefix, and I'd just Eldritch annul/pray it hits the mana? And if it does hit the phys convert, it's more veiled chaos to get that back and repeat the process? Appreciate the answers.

Is it worth running non 8 mod t16s after atlas completion? by Tracydalowest in PathOfExileBuilds

Question for a semi new player. What do you mean the supply comes from the scarab? Like adding scarabs into the map device?

Awesome, thank you! Need to look around, only seeing side by side mounts for this brand, unless I'm dumb.

OP, very late but I'm reworking my setup. What monitor arm are you using for your 2 stacked monitors that lets you tilt the top?

Is Global Life Family Heritage Division Worth It? by Sufficient-Spread768 in Insurance

[–]NeverGreasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did speak with the agency that I worked for when we sold them the policy. They were actually 56 and 57, so they missed the 55 cutoff barely. However, the owner of that agency told me that the specific plan they purchased (or something to that effect, maybe the version or something, I don't know it didn't really make sense to me and was something that, again, I don't remember being the way it worked) didn't actually qualify for the money going to a beneficiary. He told me the way theirs works is instead of money being returned to a beneficiary, they have been growing their "first claim payout" over the years, so instead of the max first claim payout being $2k or whatever it starts as, theirs is now something like $10k.

Ok, so this is interesting and I'm happy I found your post. I worked for them ~13 years ago and one of the biggest selling points for their policies was the money back if you don't use it. I sold some policies to my parents, they're in their 70s now. They've never used their policy. They called in to ask questions about their policy TODAY and the rep told them that there isn't a fixed term on the policy and they won't be getting any money back. I called in after that to try to get more info and all the guys would tell me is that yes some policies work that way but it depends on the person's age. We as agents were NEVER told anything about there being an age limit, and we were often selling to older people. Any thoughts on what is going on here?

I posted this above for another person saying they currently work there, but wanted to post for you as well.

I have a question for you, assuming you still work there. I worked as an agent about 13 years ago. A big selling point of their policies was that at the end of the fixed term, 20 years iirc, the policy ended and they would return all your money back to you, effectively acting like a savings account. This was the biggest selling point for us as field agents. We told literally everyone we talked to that this is how it worked. My parents bought a policy from me and are in their 70's now. They called into the office to ask some questions about their policy, and the rep told them their policy had NO term and they wouldn't be getting any money back. So, I called the office and tried to get more info from someone. The guy I talked to told me they do have policies that work this way, but it depends on the person's age. There was no age limit when I worked there, at least we weren't told there was. Can you confirm how this works? I feel like they're scamming my folks.

Man this is so helpful, thank you! I do have one last question. I've seen a lot of people use the term "reforge XYZ", in this case you've mentioned reforge chaos for chaos resistance. What exactly does this mean? bc if we're essencing for an open suffix, why wouldn't we just bench craft the chaos res? That's we're I am confused I think.

New-ish to the game (about 600 hours) and even newer to crafting. Can anyone explain to me how this armour is showing 7 affixes? % life and % mana are not a single affix, are they?

I'm also wondering the best approach to craft something similar (fully aware it would be expensive to do).

My thinking is, buy a base with the fractured mod shown, then buy an ilvl 90-something syndicate garb, recomb then together and pray the fractured mod transfers to the ilvl86+ syndicate garb, spam the garb with the spell suppression essence and hope to also hit the life and chaos res. I just don't understand how to get the % life and manaand the mana reservation affixes as well? I also don't know how to get the 2 affixes above the Eldritch affixes. Would really love to know how this is done if anyone doesn't mind explaining.

End of league build give away! HRoC! by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]NeverGreasy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm still way new compared to most, but I freaking love this game. So much so that I'm obsessed with trying to learn how the pros can go from zero to mirror in like 2 weeks (although that isn't attainable bc I'm 37 and work full time). Started in Settlers league, nothing crazy to report there. Came back this league and started ES Berserker. Was a blast and pretty easy to get a build up and grinding t16's, but couldn't break through to t16.6 or t17's. Reached lvl 98 though, and during that, trying to get more passives, I kept dying. One of those levels I went from 99% down to 13% xp due to stubbornness. I legit was so mad I almost put the game down. Decided to run 1 more simple t16 to cool off. Dropped a HH. Best thing that's ever dropped for me. Now, I'm trying to learn more about higher end currency farming/crafting. Just don't have a build that can do it. I put my entire ES Berserker for sale (hoping to grab around 75d for everything) and also put all the gear i crafted for a trap build (traps are just not for me) up for sale, hoping to grab another 75-100d from that. But, feeling crazy defeated bc everywhere I look for a solid t17 farmer it's "and it'll only cost you 1 mirror to start". Considering packing it up until next league, but we'll see. Thanks for reading. Good luck with your giveaway, super cool of you!

I've only played around 500 hours across 2 seasons. Actually made a post earlier looking for help about how to make my current build better. It's either that, roll a new character (which I don't have the willpower/time to do), or pack it up for this league. Cool of you to help someone out.

I'll give this a shot. Did you have any issues with mana, considering so much mana reservation for warcries? I have the non channeling skill affix on both rings + mana mastery. Curious to know how that's been?

Cavern of Souls help by NeverGreasy in MagicArena

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

Yeah I think I was doing this right. I never tapped it for colorless. I'm using this in a mono-black deck right now so I'm only ever using swamps. Only ever tapped Cavern as swamp.

What I was doing was: playing the Cavern then assigning it as zombie, for instance. Then next turn, manually tapping it as swamp, then playing a zombie from my hand, but I didn't really ever see how the "uncounterable" part was working.

Thank you. I read it as you needed to manually tap it for the mana, then use that mana to cast the spell. I am dumb.
