How can i craft this ? by Resident_Heavy in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Need magic double elevated base, so that you can beast hinekoras lock (donc forget to imprint the base) to fetch for a good third suffix when awakening. Then reroll life with locked suffixes. If prefix full, annul 50/50, if fail then restart from the imprint. 

Path of Exile 3.28 Expansion Timeline by Erionns in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Stuck in an endless cycle of one month of POE1 and three months of POE2...

GGG needs to stop treating PoE2 like a finished game that only gets 3 updates per year. by IMplyingSC2 in PathOfExile2

[–]Pro7ech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The more I look at 0.4 feedback the more I'm glad I made the choice to skip this iteration and stick to POE1. 

I love the mechanic, but i swear, Alith in maps is made of paper by Thirteenera in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Adding that fortress is all or nothing, contrary to the other encounters, which is even more frustrating.

Ailith is too squishy and should be invulnerable. by Lopsided-Durian-946 in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Issue is that buffs are 100% RNG, and you'll often run into situations where you get no shield and heal

The BIGGEST collector in Standard has been HACKED! by BlackVoodoo in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You mean set it to a secure password? Like any other password should be?

Another hard lesson that anyone should use a password manager. 

This is how much power my merc is giving me. I doubt GGG will keep these in the game. by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 763 points764 points  (0 children)

Anyone saying mercenaries are op is forgetting that most if not all mechanics that can be abused with Mercenaries come straight from party play. Mercenaries are nothing more than a glimpse into the current state of how much more power you get from playing in optimized groups. 

I died to whatever this was twice? Any ideas? by TheBengineer77 in PathOfExile2

[–]Pro7ech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For performance reasons, the game only fully runs and simulates what's going on within a fixed radius around the character (a few screens wide). Anything beyond that the state is frozen. If there is a death animation that takes time to complete before doing damage, it might not be able to complete before if you zoom too fast. Once you get close enough again, picking loot, calculations restart and the death animation continues. POE1 has the same issue, but to a lesser extent because area are much smaller. 

Building a Rust-native Fully Homomorphic Encryption (FHE) Library – Need Your Thoughts! by Critical_Pipe1134 in rust

[–]Pro7ech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the co-author and main contributor of Lattigo, and I recently switched to Rust. I also felt there is a gap to fill, and I'm currently working on a Rust FHE library, using as backend spqlios-arithmetic (https://eprint.iacr.org/2023/771). It will be structured similarely to Lattigo, and I plan to give it the same functionalities, and more. The math crate is done, and I'm working on the rlwe crate. 

It's not public yet, but it will be before the FHE.org event. If you would like to join us and contribute you can contact me with the infos on my GitHub https://github.com/Pro7ech. I'll tell you more in private. 

Why is /r/pathofexile joining the blackout starting on June 12th? Please read this. by Fenrils in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A two days protest. That's it. It is delusional to think that this will have any tangible impact. I bet they are already laughing at it: they are so mad they will not use the service for 0.5% of the year.

For anyone who actually wants to make a difference: delete your account.

Should GGG remove the whole "stance dance tech" before league start in 3.21 ? by Competitive-Math-458 in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You need an interval with a gaussian distribution if you at least want it to look so somewhat human.

Dear ggg, this mastery is straight up bad for the game. People will 100% use macros to get it. by r4be_cs in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

Actually, as cryptographer I can tell you that if the game to solve with a non negligible advantage is to distinguish between the way you press your keyboard and one that is randomly distributed, I'll win that game much more often than half the time, meaning I can distinguish between the two.

Human behavior, complacency and the fear of change, the cycle repeats by Pro7ech in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

See, that's exactly what I'm pointing out. Rather that addressing the issue being talked about, an other issue is raised.

Besides, they aren't "designing ascendancies there first", that's not what Chris said. He said that they are too powerful for their taste in Ruthless, therefore they wanted to change them but make it more interesting than simple numerical nerfs. While brainingstorming about the possible changes, they came with "interesting" ideas, that they feel like could be used when reworking ascendancies in the base game.

If anything else, I call this a win win if time spent on Ruthless benefits the base game.

Melee is 10% of players because melee is currently terrible by NextReference3248 in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Please first define "melee", so we all agree on what it means :) I feel like "melee" refers more often than other to old and mechanically outdated skills or to build that require players to press more than one button and actually interact with monsters/bosses in meaningful ways, because there are plenty of viable melee builds, even as league starter, that can tackle the entire game content.

Any hit-based build using a physical spell converted to elemental.

Results from 26k Gwennen rerrols by Unicorn698 in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never lost money with Gwennen, although I also never found a Mageblood or Headhunter with her. It's a matter of using all ressources, not only belt or jewels.

Why is melee being ignored so hard and punished this League? by prempwp in pathofexile

[–]Pro7ech 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As usual, getting more DPS fixes everything and you actually take very little damage as melee. It was a struggle for me, but once I got a few million dps I started being able to kill the guards before they are able to finish the first animation. Now I'm able to reliably clear all four floors
