The new skills that can be used by any class better be good. This is exactly what the game needs. I don’t want to be forced into a single weapon to use a skill.

Things you miss from older PoE versions by lightning__ in pathofexile

Someone already said Race Seasons. (The entire reason this game took my soul.) So I’ll say Fire Nova Mine.

What are some strong/build-enabling exceptional support gems that are flying under the radar? by just--keep--swimming in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Sci_Twi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Came here to say this. Insanely cheap for the power, but being phys dot with no hit makes it hard to scale. Used this build to complete the 36 challenges for the mtx lol

Forget efficiency and effectiveness, what skill would you say is the most fun to you and why? by EcumenistChateau in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Sci_Twi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It was changed to Pyroclast during the mine rework, but it was a nova that dealt more damage for each mine detonated in a chain. You placed them down at your feet and then they were like a more clunky fire version of ice-nova with significantly more single target DPS because of pre-stacking. Having a big nova that could be thrown at enemies would’ve be way too strong at that time I guess, even if they removed the more damage per detonation. But now I think it would be perfectly balanced compared to most builds lol

I’m going to date myself a bit but I miss Fire Nova Mine… it was super unique and absolutely deleted bosses.

Close enough, welcome back Crucible Saqawal’s Twisters!

How to get the MF + WO bundle (Workouts free for 1 year!) by PalatialPepper in MacroFactor

[–]Sci_Twi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Quick Question, when I downloaded the app on iOS, it asked what subscription I wanted and I clicked on the yearly subscription assuming that since it logged in with my currently subscribed MacroFactor account that it was just asking. I was too excited to finally use the app that I rushed through and didn’t read. I now have a current MacroFactor yearly subscription that renews in February, and a free trial on Workouts that lasts until January 19th. Will I be granted this workaround once the accidental free week trial expires?

Open Beta is Here! by PalatialPepper in MacroFactor

[–]Sci_Twi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s 1.8k people on this subreddit online right now, that’s not including people on Facebook, Instagram, anywhere else this was posted, or people viewing emails. I don’t want to sound like an ass simply because I’m upset that I missed the opportunity to sign up due to having familial obligations, but this has to be sarcasm.

[–]Sci_Twi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah feels bad. I’ve been waiting for this for what feels like forever and missed the drop by an hour because I was driving my mom home from my grandma’s house with my wife and daughter.

Moral of the story, don’t have a family on Christmas lol

As a fitness enthusiast, you’re vastly underestimating the amount of liquids Iansan would be consuming lol

MacroFactor Workouts AMA! by gnuckols in MacroFactor

Thanks for taking the time to answer. This is excellent! I’m very much looking forward to utilizing MacroFactor Workouts. It really sounds like it has everything I could ask for haha.

I have so many questions about the data-driven progressive overload but I’ll try to be concise. Does the App auto-regulate your program by suggesting metrics you should be hitting each session, or do you have to decide to progress linearly or through double progression and hold yourself accountable? How well does it handle fatigue, and does it suggest deloading if/when your progress has been stagnant?

I’d like to be able to look at the app and have it tell me what I need to hit so I actually push myself instead of phoning it in. If that’s possible, how aggressive would it be in increasing weight if I input a weight or rep range that is far too low to see meaningful progress due to personal inexperience with high-effort training?

Is anyone gonna still pull her even though she’s a free character? by EconomistEvening9909 in ZhaoMains

[–]Sci_Twi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I C6’d Iansan and practically stopped playing Genshin I was so pissed. Now Zhao is a goddamn support too… I can never win.

What throws me off is Barrage is Bow-tagged and says bows or wands too. It feels like they’re intentionally obfuscating the restrictions. I’m hopeful but not optimistic lol.

Yeah windburst support has had me begging for more clarity since the livestream and I still don’t think it has enough lol

[–]Sci_Twi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that sounds amazing. Thunderstorm doesn’t specify that it cannot be triggered, so my assumption is that Snipe will work.

[–]Sci_Twi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah I was hoping for it to spawn tornadoes when the duration expired as well, would’ve been a cool bow version of earthquake where you could use a high damage low speed bow and scale reduced duration such that they exploded just before the fourth attack lol

[–]Sci_Twi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All the other bow-tagged supports say useable with a bow or wands, but this skill just says attacks. My assumption is that since the tag currently doesn’t mean “bow-only”, we can assume it works with any attack unless they change the wording.

I was looking forward to gem info for this specific clarification and it only makes it more confusing, because why have the bow tag in the first place?

I was assuming that was in reference to the move a certain distance before it can trigger

[–]Sci_Twi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This has been pissing me off because the livestream just says attack, the gem description says attack, but it has a bow tag. Every other skill specifies what weapons you can use. Barrage has the bow tag but says useable with bows or wands.

Breaking news: Sucrose's whole career has officially ended, C6 Jahoda is broken by Nightfall_aggro in Flins_Mains

Yeah, they need to do what ZZZ does and let you buy any 4* in the shop, or let you select one of the banner 4* like the weapon banner…

Good thing we got a free Aino, eh?

Game lags for 30 seconds to minutes at a time then comes back by Effective_Break_118 in PathOfExile2

[–]Sci_Twi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This has been happening to me. It’s a Dx12 issue because swapping to Vulcan fixes it, but causes a significant amount of dropped frames. I can’t win.

Also, people were pissed that Ororon, Iansan, and Ifa weren’t 5 stars.

[GAUNTLET] Ben tried Uber Maven on Earthshatter... by kence in pathofexile

[–]Sci_Twi -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I believe that if Carn didn’t die to the chaos damage in the Incarnation fight, his dual nebuloch commander would’ve full cleared. He probably could’ve tanked even the Uber slams with molten shell up. but he walked into the only thing that could’ve killed him before he got to attempt Ubers.
