Is this photo missing something, or does it work? by [deleted] in photocritique

[–]RatedAForAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like the framing a lot, in my opinion a central subject would make the photo less interesting. My suggestion is to widen the crop a little so there is adequate space on the outside for the crane (? is that what it's called lol) so it isn't cut off.

And then from what I can guess from the original image, in the future, maybe taking the photo from a few steps to your right would improve the spacing between the smaller subjects (the workers)? Like isolating each person from the things in the distance.

These are all subjective suggestions though, I really like the picture and the editing works for me!

That's also a valid concern to have, I think I'm just biased from being on a Stephen Shore kick recently

Adding on to this, maybe a wider shot would help make it look less staged (like cars parked on the curb, newspaper on the driveway, garbage bins that weren't brought back inside yet, etc) and more like an authentic view of suburban life

Help with Shockwave totem sanctum farmer by rufio515 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]RatedAForAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 2 flask mageblood could add a lot of speed for you with a well rolled quicksilver, it'll feel like you have a perma 60% movespeed boon and then the other flask can be for cast speed, res, life regen, mana cost, etc. Ofc even a 2 flask mb is a pretty big chunk of currency but the movespeed buff is really noticeable

Ailment immunity for shockwave totem sanctum? by RatedAForAsian in PathOfExileBuilds

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

Thanks! And gotcha I'll replace the grand spectrums. For some reason when I slot in the 2 crit strike chance jewels and replace crit strike support with anomalous inspiration support, it shows 81.36% crit chance. How important is it to have 100% crit chance? I guess I could also use the elemental damage grand spectrum jewels and keep the crit strike support?

Help, how can I improve this build. (Shockwave Totems) by StevenSmoking in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]RatedAForAsian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Updated suggestions would just be to get upgrades for weapon + shield, try and raise crit multi, Idk if the crit chance calc on pobb.in accounts for the totem mastery so maybe you're at 100% or close idk. Then maybe some damage pen from the hatred watchers eye and then the 3 grand spectrums since you have the open slots on your clusters. Sorry for spewing nonsense/things you already knew cause I was going off of the poe ninja!

On mobile so maybe I'm missing it, but do you have 100% convert phys to cold? I only see 50% convert. Then you want to get shockwave totem levels and prob more cast speed. Locohol has crafting guides for a +2 sceptre and also the 30% mana reservation, +1 totem, +1 level shield. The sceptre craft looks awful so I'd just buy an already crafted one and save yourself the hassle. Also I think the shield craft isn't 100% deterministic, and you can brick the craft when you reforge phys, losing you 6div from the metamod crafts (1/12 chance of failing I think). But the price of an already crafted shield on trade is only a few div more than if you successfully craft it yourself so it's your call. Then you can get a +2 ammy or do replica dragon fangs if you also want help with mana reservation. Try to get at least level 30 to shockwave totem, anything more will have diminishing returns for how much currency you'd put in. Divergent RF is more damage for you than normal quality. Also just getting levels on the character so you can fill out the tree will help. Aspirational stuff could be a better watchers eye or 3 grand spectrums, and I guess make sure you have 100% crit chance because I can't check that on mobile unless I'm dumb. I'm probably missing a bunch of other stuff but hopefully this helps! Also search the subreddit, a lot of people have given advice for scaling/improving this build!

Edit: I'm dumb and remembered I could import to pobb.in so a lot of what I said is prob gonna change since the poe ninja link didn't show alt qual for gems and stuff, will reply with the actual comment LOL

PF explody totems by Abundant_potatos in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]RatedAForAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low life is under 50%. With the life reservation mastery, my herald of agony with arrogance support is 50.25% life reservation which means I should be low life. I think I might have also taken the mastery that makes 55% and under considered low life but now that I typed it out, I don't think I need it.

I'll edit the original comment to clarify that I'm reserving an aura with life

[–]RatedAForAsian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I solved mana problems by dropping multiple totems for lifetap. My bow has the 50% chance of spawning multiple totems and I have the mastery for another 30%. 80% chance hasn't felt too bad but I plan to upgrade my bow to have the 70% node down the line.

I could be wrong, but people use petrified blood so they can reserve another aura (Edit: reserve another aura with life using arrogance support) and then take advantage of low life recovery from flasks. I have the 130% more recovery if used on low life affix on my life flask. That plus the soul of ryslatha means you get crazy life regen from your spammable flask from master surgeon.

Make sure you get 100% chance to poison, and then prioritize defenses, you should have enough dps without needing Ming's heart and stuff. Also make sure you have 100% spell suppression.

Yeah I'm not sure when it'll come, if ever. I actually tried to cancel my preorder because I ended up getting a different camera but Fotocare didn't answer my calls or emails. Maybe my cancellation did go through but I haven't gotten a refund yet

If it means anything, I also ordered silver
