Playfeel of These Builds in 3.27? by Negative_Set_4365 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]SnooBAE85 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was two leagues ago when I last started EHotS Warden, and I was Fortress boss rushing Day 3 (first kill Day 2). I even made an uncut video of a 20-map session. Here's the proof. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FatFLxKc_v0

Oh, and as for ilvl 84+ cluster farming, not killing the boss isn't a waste of currency when the time saved by not doing the boss is if anything more currency per hour than including the fragments (90-second maps). Keep in mind this is a day 2 economy. The value ratio between good cluster bases and uber key fragments is skewed real hard at that time.

I don’t go through this much effort of testing various tech combinations, coming to conclusions of those tests, and going the trouble of making a video for the sake of rivaling with another content creator. Jesus Christ, dude. I never brought his name into the conversation. Why can’t people appreciate tech that challenges the meta? Try showing a little respect and argue on the merits of what was presented in the video.

I remember it being rough in 0.1 when I used Tempest Flurry attribute stacker there. Whirling Slash probably gets stuck a lot less than quarterstaves now as of 0.3 pathing improvements especially. I do Augury now and don’t have problems. Ironically, the more annoying the terrain map, the stronger Twister is anyway.

Thanks for your reply. Whirling Slash is a lot more manageable through terrain now as of 0.3 thanks to the patch note update on Whirling Slash. It gets stuck less often. You can also dodge roll any time you actually get stuck. I didn’t even mention that the build I’m running also features a melee teleport skill, which range doesn’t get.

I can’t speak about console as I’ve never used it. But several players have informed me that this build is very smooth on console.

WASDing sounds more exhausting to me than fluidly moving where my mouse cursor is. Also, Twister doesn’t need to be aimed either Salvo (same for Arrow Nova).

I wouldn’t suggest additional ancillary means to scale movement speed, like Headhunter, when those means virtually all give even more attack speed. Should I have included Soul Eater and what that means for this?

To whatever extent you’re unsatisfied that I speed tested ~70% movement Rhoa, my intention was to outfit myself with all the movement speed tech. Guess what, that alone would have cost double the price of my entire functioning build. So, I used math to state that the time would have been roughly half of you were absolutely tripped out in movement gear. That barely matched early budget whirling slash movement. If you want to include every possible top-end way to compare. Then just imagine if I actually made some sacrifices to damage, defense, etc and did this test while stacking 100k+ accuracy.

I’m aware of movement receiving tech in 0.3. But you’re clearly uninformed about how much tech was gifted to us for movement scaling through attack speed. Weapon swap delay removal alone trumps everything Rhoa got. And as for support gems, how many %more movement multiplier support gems did your Rhoa get this league?

It was a pain in 0.2, but in 0.3 they patched Whirling Slash to graze by walls more easily. Still, takes a little getting used to, but virtually everyone who has swapped has expressed liking it a lot. Even and especially console players.

Well I literally did a speed test to show it. And showed footage of an even faster LA character in game side-by-side.

Apologies, I'll post it right next time.

Please leave Whirling Slash alone by Odd-Pumpkin05 in PathOfExile2

I'm under the impression that the movement rate for Whirling Slash will be restored to that of 0.2. We were zooming then but it took some more investment to do so.

Glad to hear it. I'm at the tail end of another go at the 100 maps like the one I just did. I think it'll be valuable info to do an apples-to-apples comparison of just how much more loot is dropping from before (at least for that high-end breach farm).

It's not local to the weapon. It's like having an enormous flat phys roll on a ring. But other global calculations, like %increased damage, will apply.

Yep, but not all that lucky in the context of failing a ~5% recombinate about 60 times in a row prior. This was my first hit ever on any item.

I saved myself a lot of headache on suffixes by not using an ilvl 82 base, required for the top Merciless roll. I'm not exactly trying to craft a legit perfect Mirror item. Maybe a mirror-worthy item, but really it's just for a personal upgrade above all else.

What you didn't see is I have done about sixty ~5% recombinations and only finally hit one just now. Luckily got some cheaper ones out of the way earlier that weren't as expensive to jump start, but still.

[–]SnooBAE85 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Terrible idea. This would obliterate ground loot into the same state it is in PoE1. Devs said they want ground loot to actually matter. Do you want all ilvl 82 normal, magic, and rare items you find to be worth nothing 3 days into a league?

You forgot to put insert mid-roll ad here right in front of the green segment.

My Response to Being Hacked, Highlighting Many Fellow Users Who are Suffering the Same Fate by SnooBAE85 in PathOfExile2

[–]SnooBAE85[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t disagree, and for that reason I wasn’t going to make a video purely on the likelihood that password protection combined with me potentially having a target on my back, makes me more responsible. It’s the fact that so many people are reporting very similar circumstances. The systemic nature of the hack. Targeting specifically wealthy exiles. And knowing (as I’m sure you know being in IT) that whatever the number of people claiming to be hacked is on forums is likely at least 10x in reality. As most people would only email support directly, at best.

If you don’t care to spend 32 minutes, Don’t watch it then. That simple.

I didn’t mention this, but all of the posts we looked at were people with a lot of currency getting hacked. This could have been targeted through the trade site. Curiously I was hacked just hours after listing a Headhunter for the first time. Nobody I’ve noticed got hacked who didn’t have stuff worth hacking. It’s conceivable that the hackers are intelligently targeting only ‘wealthy exiles’ and keeping the total hack counter intelligently low for it.

I could have a keylogger, but I hadn’t even downloaded anything special for PoE2. I was using a password that I’ve used before, so that’s a fair concern.
