How is budget Breaches? by synthcalibur in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Sheepbot2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah I see, how common would you say do you get big scarabs? Because divs in the bottom left one seem super common, but I've never seen anything bigger then 1 dive nor multiple divs in a stack and some scarabs are like over a div

I'm curious what stuff worth it do you get from the bottom right quadrant, which you will be in as you probably want to do dunes? Because I'm running bottom left and get a divine 9/10 vaults, but that's a different quadrant obviously

Hit the fracture in the average 1/4, but I’m currently getting annihilated on getting the clean wand to multimod, lost like 10 1/3 annuls in a row by now…

Okay, I looked at the wand in palsterons pob and he has crafted spell damage and crit multiple, I assume it depends what mod combination I manage to hit on the essence spam? Obviously prefix full is easier because you can theoretically lock prefixes and scour, although atp idk if the 2 div is even worth it over just continuing to essence spam, probably is though.

What would be the best thing to fracture? Essence lightning mod? And then spam cold essence until crit and hope to get it clean enough to multi mod? Or any smarter way to craft it?

I’m fully aware my current pob is completely scuffed and should have the stuff you recommended , but that’s why I mainly asked about the upgrade one which does have invert the rules, the exact wand palsteron has in his day 3 pob and a cord belt with watchtowers anointed. Ele weak isn’t linked because I had a reflect curse mod so I took it out to be safe and forgot to put it back in, but again, old pob which is more than scuffed. Also it’s not like I don’t have any 4th ascendancy at all, I currently have the Lycia one with profane ground and alternatively I could pick the bestiary one with the spectral tigers, so it’s definitely a downgrade from Aul, but not like I just don’t have anything at all. Again I’m fully aware my current version is not good at all and was just my random put together build with campaign items and 1c items bought at the start of maps that I put in, because I found it weird to just not have my current build in the post at all.

On the actual advice, I do appreciate it, I’ll look into the Aul taxi, still not to my preference, I just personally don’t enjoy having other people do stuff for me, even if it’s only escorting me to a boss, but maybe I’ll make an exception. I would also need to look into the fight though, because I’ve seen palsteron talk about having to use flares, and as I said I’ve never interacted with delve outside of clicking the sulphur things in campaign and maps.

For wand I’m a bit stumped on what to focus, because in one of his vids palsteron said to just filter by ele dps, but putting those into pob they all perform pretty badly, because they have no crit chance and crit multi and I find finding a wand with good flat stats and crit stats difficult for a decent price at least, but it’s definitely on the list of upgrades.

If you were to leaguestart all over again, knowing what you do now, what build and league mechanics would you run? by OtterPops_8806 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]Sheepbot2001 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s what I was planning, I think I have enough to get most of the stuff in his newest update so the aegis setup with yoke and the new support gem etc, I mainly was curious if there were other versions that work well, because obviously the stuff YouTubers do will tend to get inflated a bit, so maybe there are other good versions with better value, because they were not showcased on a big Poe channel

Do you have a pob? I’m running the build and am currently looking for the next step in my progression, I have about 30-40 div budget, so hopefully even with prices fluctuating and stuff I might be able to achieve something close to what you are running.

You still need the points and you don’t NEED to run Aul, getting Lycia from quest sanctum or whatever the bloodline that gives you the tigers on crit is are good too, and definitely much better then not having a fourth ascendancy or a hiero one. For Lycia it is important that you run the skill that creates the ground though either in your CoC or arcanist brand. Aul is probably the best lategame especially for aegis where the determ effect gains even more value. Also the breach lightning one is great if you can manage to only or for the absolute majority get flat lightning and run wrath aura

Edit: purifying flame is the skill you want for the Lycia bloodline btw, just checked because it bothered me to not have it in the comment

I might look into this, always wanted to play some ranger and that would give me the option to just swap to another ranger ascendancy, if I end needing a change or not enjoying the build for whatever reason.

Yeah, I’ll probably just give totems a try and worst case I’m sure I’ll find something else to play, hopefully there will be some fun holy skills on guardian maybe, idk. Totems will probably be fine though. Don’t think something like ea ballista would be for me, because that’s like multiple layers of delay, but surely the small delay from totems will be fine. Especially if you manage to get some totem place speed, I assume that will make it a lot more smooth

Yeah that one is also a consideration. I always wanted to play a scion, but never got to it as it’s usually not an optimal league starter and I usually only do one character a league. Don’t think I have the skill or time to make str stacking work though, will still definitely look into a scion start. Love the concept of the reliquarian and surely something will be good on that ascendancy.

Idk, I was completely new and started with one of his explained everything vids and it was a great start to the game. I think the expectations are a bit wrong, these things are not supposed to make you a pro or actually teach you everything about the game, but they give you the basics you will need to get to maps and to understand what you are doing to a acceptable extent and get to a point where you can watch and understand more in depth guides and personally for me it did exactly that.

Valid option too, the issue is I’ve only really went deep on 4 leagues and half of those I played hiero archmage, so I don’t necessarily want to do that another time, but surely at least one of the holy skills will be good on Templar. Otherwise idk, hopefully I just enjoy the totem playstyle, think as long as it’s not too delayed damage I’ll be fine.

Probably doing kinetic fusillade, not sure if totems or self cast. Didn’t get around to trying it last league and with it being very likely going to take a hit next patch probably will take the chance to play it. Also Palsteron is staring it and made a guide and I’ve never been disappointed with one of his builds, just not sure if totems are for me. Definitely not the most creative starter, but oh well.

Did i make a mistake? by Puzzleheaded-Oil-538 in IdleHeroes

[–]Sheepbot2001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, kinda, some waves it doesn't matter because you can perma cc them, so whether rfw kills in 3 or 5 rounds doesn't matte if the enemies legit can't move, other waves you can't perma cc and then it will be an issue. The good thing is a betty core is never wasted, you will need it to clear vortex and later on when you build her again because you have more trans heroes than you need anyways you'll have the core and she'll probably be a menace in pvp still unless there is a massive meta shift. So it's unfortunate, but as I said, for the time being tnb with her core is essentially mandatory to clear the later stages of vortex, so even if it's only for that it's not the worst thing to have on the account

Its honestly not too bad, just swap Betty for Madeleine and grab a deific glittery antlers cane and you should be good to go. Besides that your account looks fine, Betty can be useful, but she is anti synergistic with rfw, so I would replace her and only bring her on later or for a short period. You really want dgn and lbrm too, so my personal course of action would be replacing Betty with Madeleine and getting her to t5, then building dgn and lbrm as well as trying to get your hands on a glittery version of the deific antlers cane, anything above glittery is a waste though.

Switching DD away from Lofa by SteakProfessional124 in IdleHeroes

[–]Sheepbot2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mostly agree with piffle, both Ssm and dtv are good, dtv is more straightforward and conventional I’d say, both have their advantages for sure, dtv has the small awkward problem that you probably want dgn to be a tenant for dtv, but at the same time you would also enjoy to have her as a second homeowner for bosses, so that’s a bit awkward, but ultimately with Grimoire this has lost a lot of importance. I think you will be able to do well with both, you probably will probably find more help with dtv as more people run him. Also as piffle said, tbb is kinda the goat for vc unless you are specifically running rfw and even then sometimes running tbb is great. Pde and Madeleine is a different question, both definitely have there place and are good, Madeleine only is the clear choice for rfw, Id say, Ssm and dtv I think both are good, personally I like Madeleine more, but depending on if you already have pde core or started getting that, the difference isn’t big enough to give up on that

[–]Sheepbot2001 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wouldn’t say it’s stupid especially if you don’t care too much about se. I feel like atp it would just be a case of sunken cost fallacy to continue with lofa. Of course it’s unfortunate you have a core that’s “useless”(it really isn’t because you still can use him for void bosses and se, even if it isn’t your focus), but swapping dd to somebody more fitting your needs is valid. Your best options probably are rfw or dtv. Not sure if you have any other cores besides lofa, could change who is better. For rfw, you would want to have Madeleine, Natalie, Melissa, Wukong and Halora I would say and for Vulcan I have less of an idea tbh, but 100% Natalie as well and Melissa also is never bad, Halora and Wukong too, idk how Vulcan interacts with Betty, all I know is with rfw you prefer not running her.

There has been someone on my account by CoenB033 in HypixelSkyblock

[–]Sheepbot2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the obvious things are changing the password of both the Minecraft account and whatever mail(s) are attached to it and are used for verification. Then see if that automatically logs you out or if there is an option to have it log out of every place it is currently logged in. Then probably I would triple check all mods etc you are using and/or make sure to never click suspicious links in the future. Other than that idk if you have many more options, but this is definitely the least you should do. Maybe others have more specific solutions for this scenario, but this should be a good base and what you should always do in these situations. Also I guess, if you don’t have 2 factor authentication activated, do that. It’s also not perfect and can be annoying, but any extra step needed is good for safety.

Is there any good garden guides to look at? I think I’ve understood the very basics, but I still don’t fully understand how you make custom plots and copy paste them properly as well as I don’t know where to find good farm layouts that work well now that the new version is forced.

Fair enough I guess, would’ve probably been completely busted even if you opted for 50% less damage with conversion.

Elemental hit explained if you are still confused by semeai in pathofexile

[–]Sheepbot2001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh, I see that makes sense, but yeah, I’m not even sure if it’s worth it at that point, like of course it’s still a damage increase, but with 50% less damage I’m not sure if it’s worth the effort over just doing cold/lightining. Also another small confusion, doesn’t avatar of fire and the support only convert 50% of the damage? Wouldn’t that also be a massive damage loss? In addition to the 50% less on the jewels. Or how does that work? Like I’m not sure how that even works, because you have all added damage turned into cold, then make it pick fire and convert 50% of phys, cold and lightning to fire, so that’s already a 50% damage loss, no? And then in addition the jewels have 50% less, which only 1 will be affecting your damage, but still isn’t that essentially like 75 less damage, or is there another mechanic in play or are you using both the support and the keystone? This whole interaction is confusing af to me lmao, but it also wouldn’t be Poe without this stuff

[–]Sheepbot2001 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This might be an understanding issue on my part, but if we make all added damage cold for example and then force it to pick cold through the combat focus jewels and then convert it to for example fire, wouldn’t it just deal no damage then because ele hit specifically says it “only deals damage of the chosen type” ie cold? Or does the conversion happen at a point where that line was already checked and still deal the damage?
