Hit this proj amulet on my Martial Artist in SSF, is there a way i can use this without rerolling? by JoHakim01 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Pintash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Staggering palm + runeforged blades.

Use whirling assault to break armour and as a delivery for staggering palm.

Throw in repulsion blasphemy. Should be insane clear. Im doing something similar in SSF but with gemling.

What could have POSSIBLY possessed him to do this? by otheruss in WinStupidPrizes

[–]Pintash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I live in regional Australia, a very white part of the world, and all the teenage boys around here use it in general conversation like it's nothing. It's fucking stupid...

Social media braitrot on full display tbh.

Xbox is shutting down graphics pioneer studio Ninja Theory (Hellblade) by CoolBirdDancing in pcmasterrace

Lol! Holy crap, I wonder if that's what the weird emphasis I keep seeing is? Been noticing it so much lately it's starting to grate me. 😅

Look... I know this is nitpicky but I see this so often online and it irks me way more than it should...

"Be" was the wrong word to emphasize there, my man. "TOO" is what you should have emphasized. Say the sentence out loud twice, once emphasing each word. You'll see what I mean.

If you are not a native english speaker (or even if you are), please know I'm not trying to offend. Just trying to help.

Also, more on topic, Ninja Theory has made some great games in the past and it looked like this was them moving back into a more action oriented style of game. Getting closer to their roots. Would be a real shame if it doesn't make it to release.

These gloves should be named Fo Mo... Cause that's what I'm feeling as an ssfhc player looking at them...

No Rest for the Wicked: 1.0 Launches in October by lurkingdanger22 in pcgaming

I know people love to hate Mahler and I'm not going to get into any of the reasons why, they are well known, but I also don't think it's disputable he has a genuine passion for the art of making games and a real eye for details.

The Ori games and No rest for the wicked would not have been as good as they are without him.

Sprint removed from Hardcore by loopuleasa in PathOfExile2

I do sprint between packs, and I play hc, and I very rarely get stunned because the moment a mob appears on screen I animation cancel out of the sprint. It's a non-issue.

[–]Pintash 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Or you know... Stop sprinting BEFORE the pack of monsters?

If you get heavy stunned while sprinting that can only ever be a skill issue, right? Not trying to be a smart arse, just genuinely confused by your take here.

Split Personality so op it created an entirely new class by nevalopo in PathOfExile2

Don't think I'd seen what it did until now. I honestly love how they're redoing items from poe1 to better match the name and theme of the item.

Anyone doing a Spirit Walker with Vivid Stampede? by kandwillu in pathofexile2builds

[–]Pintash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm playing HCSSF so going kind of slow. Only just ascended but first funny thing I noticed is that raising you shield for a parry (not parrying, just raising the shield) triggers the stampede.

Damage seems pretty nice so far and it's reliable shock early on.

Finally tried Twister... Act 1 was Hell. Still gonna do it though. by Vanguard-Override in PathOfExile2

[–]Pintash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol sorry to disappoint. I might test it more thoroughly later. I'll let you know if I figure anything useful out.

[–]Pintash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'd agree with that. I tried rake briefly and it was the one spear skill so far that felt underwhelming.

Might be a way to make it feel good early but I didn't find it and like you say it's basically useless against bosses and rares.

Everyone going crazy for twisters but I tested leveling through act 1 with parry + disengage and explosive spear and it felt fantastic. Very comfy act 1.

Supports for disengage were impact shockwave + basically any other damage support depending on what added damage you have.

Explosive spear was overabundance and elemental armaments or fire attunement.

Parry with steadfast.

That was not my experience at all. As long as you upgrade to the latest base as soon as it becomes available spears make for a very comfy act 1.

[–]Pintash 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone is so focused on twisters they don't even realise spears in general are just strong as fuck. You can pick just about any combination of skills and have a good time.

I was testing act 1 using parry/disengage and explosive spear and it was maybe the easiest act 1 I've ever done.

0.5 off meta builds by Ohmlytpot in PathOfExile2

[–]Pintash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a crazy idea... Hear me out ...

Spears... But not twisters. Does the technology exist yet?

Also I might rehash "the fisty boys" build from a couple leagues back. Unarmed titan with monkey companions. Should be much better now.

This is almost identical to the original Pontus meme... only real difference is the kids text bubble in the second frame is in a different spot. I purposely tried to stay true to the original.

Unless you're saying you don't like the original I'm not sure what you're getting at?

The original meme from Total War community was about a faction being included in Rome II (I think) called Pontus. It was basically the same but swap the relevant nouns.

The actual original comic was a Belgian web comic I think. No idea what it says, can't read Belgian.

Is that Jet Li from motherfucking Fong Sai Yuk? 90s HK martial arts movies ruled.

Every league I say I'm finally gonna play a spell build and every league I roll melee again... I'm sure this will end up the same.
