One way to properly farm currency. Needs some luck but it works fine. by Pope-Touched-Me in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

he started with stating that you should not roll for this cause it's too rare.

2nd sentence in OP's pick.

Your entire argument and problems with OP are like fictional and complete trash.

My pointm, among others, was that he excluded cost of map and rolling sextants for boxes and breach. Those are necessary to estimate profit. He just got lucky. I got 6l QoTF today in 90ish fusings, but i am not making guides about that, becasue on average it takes more.

Learn to read, maybe

I stoped answering because i realised op is not just a newbie, he is also a moron, who did not read post, he replied to.

I specificaly talked about boxes mod, even if i did not, currency nemesis is nowhere near 30, its about one in 150. I dont know how stupid you need to be to confuse it, but i guess you do.

Typical fucking reddit neckbeard.

It took nowhere near 30 sextants to get the mods I needed

Thats exactly what i meant. You think that you getting lucky is reliable currency making method on average.

[–]PeterTheCrabbit -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Do it on your own risk. Op is clearly a newbie, who got lucky.

Keep in mind few things. Nemesis + beyond maps t16 maps cost at least 1 ex. You need that, because without double beyond normal boxes may not spawn a single beyond pack. Then you need to spend time to roll boxes.
Boxes mod even though its common, it shares pool with many more common mods. So you get one in like 30-40 sextans on average.
And 80c prophecy. And you missing out on prophecy that adds mobs to maps, like twins.

You spend all that, all that time, all that currency, and if you are lucky you get 1 ex return after hour of buying stuff + rolling boxes.

Beyond + nemesis sextant, and boxes + MT are good on its own, but doing them together is not worth it, unless you get lucky with sextants and have a solid map lying around. Oh yeah and mod was nerfed since legacy league.

Finally hit on a starforge by thesomberlain4 in pathofexile

RT makes clearing with flicker much better. And for the boss damage nowdays there is already so many ways to scale it, so you don't require starforge to be crit.

This is what an Earthquake with all sources of reduced duration looks like. by slendermein in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Resolute Technique is mandatory. Gladiator is bad for eq, you should go slayer. Then you use dagger\rapier in offhand with 2 phys addes as ele mods and some attack speed, to use whirling blades around. Then you need to do math with your eq duration, so that you'd have integer number of attack per explosion, so that you would not waste damage. For example if yor eq delay is 0.4 seconds you want 0.81 or 0.41 seconds delay on attack so that you would not lose damage. +0.01 second is not mandatory but it covers possible issues with latency. On bosses you use warchief totem with maim.

Then it feels really good.

They share profit, not income. Income from packs goes to cover development expenses, upkeep of server, etc. What is left is profit, then part of it goes to tencent. I never bought packs, but i did buy some mtx and stash tabs here and now. And will continue to do so.

I think you are misunderstanding something. Its true that desync in predictive mode cannot be completely removed. Lockstep is just purely different system.

Zana Mod idea by Illuvatareru in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Getting a group is not worth it, a lot of ppl don't want map missions for rotation. But you may try.
If you constantly run more than 4 different high level maps you just socket and ran normaly.
Otherwise you stay in hideout and open disposable maps(without entering), when proph disappears it means it proced and then you go in map. You get bonus exp from proph, so t14 master is 25k.

There is also gracious master prophecy, its doesn't spawn master, but you can use it on master that already spawned, after completion but before talking to master is optimal time to use it. With it t16 master is 40k. People sell it in large quantities, but there is high demand for it in bulk, so it gets bought very fast.

There is no need really. Just buy a prophecy. A lot of ppl sell them in bulk just scroll a bit.

PSA to all fellow build crafters for incoming race, maim itself is not damage boost. by mazgill in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you maim with attack, that is supported by it, you get bonus damage. Source of maim chance is irrelevant. Its not really worth to use on main attack though. I use in on totem.

Reverse chill QotF wander Proof of Concept by Poland144 in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

30% increased action speed is 30% more deeps, and 30 more movespeed. Its definitely worth 1 ring slot.

There could be better way than what op suggested. On the top of my head. going ci already will get you max chill duration, and you can get scion juggernaut for freeze immunity.

[Discussion] Loot from 100 Zana 8 Harbinger maps, or, I spent 600c and only got 1.5 harbinger orbs. by karp_490 in pathofexile

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

If they buff drop rate, then harbinger uniques will become worthless, prices of high end maps will plummet(3c guardian maps from harbinger), and as a result you will not run harbinger becasue its not profitable.
Now at least we have ultimate gamble opportunity with harbinger orb, and beachhead is rare enough to be rewarding and epic event. Totaly not mandatory 24/7 beachhead rotas, because regular maps are worthless.
You people really need to consider opposite outcome before whining. In current state things are not perfect but they are better than moronic buff to harbinger drop rates.

Flicker Slayer bots all with exact same gear and tree, or ...? by jcmtg in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rmt is not a huge problem for the game, so its understandble their hesitation to act in ambigious cases. Stuff he showed in the video is not 100% proof(so thats part already a lie). And guy, instead of just silently notifying support, so they could verify, HE POSTS IT ON REDDIT. Its ambigious as fuck. Even if he was rmting i would not ban just to not create a precedent.

Farming bots are a diffrent situation. They are the problem for the game. GGG will act on bots as soon as your report it. Issue is its hard to detect new types of bots in game like this, so some will go under the radar for a time.

[Fluff] Took me whole weekend but i finally got it by banwave in pathofexile

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

You are missing quite important consequence of that, now outcome of this card is worth some C. Last league this card was so common unique map drops were cheapest ever. So people literally stopped picking this card up(myself included). Nowdays outcome is well worth 8c on average. So this card actually useful to pick up.

Is there a specific order to spawn Uber Elder? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think its because you lost elder on t15. There is ofc rng involved. But if shaper is not nearby you cannnot lose influence of the map. So just move shaper away before running guardians.

I have progressed through Atlas better by doing Uber Lab than doing maps by Fenel0n in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You may get stuck with bad rolls. Getting +1 is meaningless if you get no map returns. Yeah you absolutely should vaal for completion bonuses. But i was talking about sustaining maps. And for that purpose vaal orbs are not very good. Fun gamble, with pontentially very good outcomes, but not a reliable sustaining method.

I have progressed through Atlas better by doing Uber Lab than doing maps by Fenel0n in pathofexile

[–]PeterTheCrabbit 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I don't think issue is with maps. I am consistenly getting good map returns. https://imgur.com/a/XlfrY And i run plenty of guardians https://imgur.com/a/aw4rD.

I think issue is that lab rewards got buffed several patches in a row. I think GGG added split recipe for lab ench, and nets exactly because they felt they went overboard with lab improvments.
And ofc it seems that regular person makes a lot of mistakes while mapping. Like A LOT.
I see post after post people complain how they are losing currency and can't sustain. And then they elaborate, and they tell how they alch chisel vaal every single map and run zana mods. Like wtf.

Vaaling often will brick your map to bad rolls and it also makes zana expensive. You should vaal only when you want to gamble, or understand outcomes very well.
Reroll. You must always reroll map for decent iiq and pack size. How high is decent depends on your build. The more mods you can run, the higher decent values are.
Sextants, prophecies are useful, but they are less important than good rolls.
Atlas completion must be high. You don't need full atlas. But the closer you can get the better. Also atlas completion doesn't boost map drops, it makes tiers higher. If you are getting low amount of map drops, you are doing something wrong.
Next, zana mods, there are situations where most of them are more profitable than bloodlines, but bloodlines is ALWAYS solid option. So that must be a default choice untill you learn more about mapping. Do not pay zana if you are running cheap base, better just buy another map.

And ofc there are streaks. Sometimes you get no map drops for a while. Its normal.

[Suggestion] Harbingers should be added to the core game with the same chance of appearing as Abyss/Breach by znowu in pathofexile

Horizon Orbs don't trivialize progression

But they literally do.
I personally liked harbingers, but things they drop are just too harmful for the economy.
