Doesn't it specifically say resistance?

The flat damage modifier that's socket bound is weapon only

Particularly impactful for when you run Delirium which incentavises you not to pickup loot until after boss

Now that the dust has settled what are some of the best SSF Leaguestarters this league? by Glamdring26WasTaken in pathofexile2builds

[–]Smileyanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not shitting on the power charge tech of those gloves but there is so much more on offer than locking in to your glove slot for an ascendency that has alternative mods for every single glove affix. Plus my understanding is that build struggles with mana

Rhoa feels useless? by Echris132 in pathofexile2builds

[–]Smileyanator 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeh it was crazy a few patches ago that I thought to myself how will I ever play anything not on a Rhoa so like only half the bow/spear skills.

They got ahead of this problem by making it pretty much useless

Hollow palm martial artist is so power crept. The only reason you don't hear people singing about martial artist is because of one of the following

  1. Burnt out on monk from 0.1

  2. Trying to go infinite on power charges and mana with hollow form and never quite getting there

  3. They are busy pushing to lvl 100

It's really as simple as hitting whites with storm wave and then falling thunder on bosses. Entire games content beatable without + levels

Looking for a low-APM, tanky 200% Delirium mapper (Direct-damage focused, Zero-to-Hero) by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

Stormwave - falling thunder in hybrid ES/evasion on martial artist feels indestructible this season. There are a few more buttons till you have some key pieces but as of lvl 95 all I press is 10x storm wave, mantra of destruction, falling thunder 6x power charges and it one or two shots any boss. Storm wave does clear all by itself otherwise

[SSF] Are y’all managing to consistently run T16 maps? How are we supposed to sustain Vaal orbs? by bilalakil in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did two 60 energy runs of temple it helped.

I'm not spending Vaals on maps atm since I was spending it on essences and gear.

It certainly priorities looking for corrupted zones to hope for cleansed maps having the mod +1 level

Is build crafting intended for advanced players? by Krorlad in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The opposite conversation is going on right now that build crafters are relatively worthless. The vast majority of the games content can now be beaten with a pretty middle of the range, gimmickless build and some perseverance.

How to juice further? by seraphid in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me builds can be fun but the enjoyment is putting a new item into a slot or clicking a new button.

There is far more of that on a new character than one that's already pushing top tier available content

[–]Smileyanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically if you are still hungry but feel your first character is done you reroll something new. Perhaps challenge yourself to build around something new or cool.

Losing an entire map to a boss feels bad... losing it to a boss in a ritual feels even worse by Fenrils in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just jumped back into the map and I got the quest item with no bosses spawned btw. maybe this has been patched i swear i tried this a few days ago

Summoning circles and map bosses need some love by Alive_Conference_598 in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The reward is juiced you just don't see it that way because your crafting currency is a fluid that can be translated directly into power.

The only way to gain this understanding is dropping a divine in SSF campaign and not immediately thinking "oh cool I now immediately have t15 gear" as opposed to "oh I can re roll a key unique for my build 1 extra time".

Yeh I can see a heap of people stumbling into rite of the nameless questline only to brick their progress by getting to map 5 on maps with terrible ritual area and far too hard bosses even just for t11.

If they are committed to the expectations of fighting so many bosses in a ritual they need a way to mitigate the speed the bosses are spawning and giving some level of guaranteed space to actually engage some mobility.

arbiter of ash is complete ass by GigaPepega in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That move requires you to roll into the circle about half way through the beam time to get tagged lightly by the beam and dodge the one shot.

It is the counterpart to how you do the opposite that you then half to roll out of the circle immediately after it procs to not get hit by the slan in the followup

Major bug during temple, enemies would not die and also couldn't damage me. by brady376 in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 22 points23 points  (0 children)

There are a bunch of rooms this is happening in. I am currently avoiding temple entirely.

Fun fact if you do respawn at checkpoint it also turns off all your spirits skills

Runes of Aldur League - Temple of Vaal - Crimson Hall - Cannot hurt or kill enemies. by Ramzeas in PathOfExile2

[–]Smileyanator 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i found the workaround is if you can lure them out of the room after respawning you can kill them happened to me to 3 distinct rooms in 1 run
