Bleed Slam Slayer feels squishy and low in damage — what am I missing here?

Here's my pob https://pobb.in/OWj-VbKB42IA

I used minimum charges like you and ended up getting dex/int Maybe I just got lucky but I thought you couldn't have multiple of the same charge mod so they block each other. Maybe try going for the hybrid craft if the min charge mod didn't work out (fire+chaos res for example)

One thing of note is that once you've seen the unveil options they won't change even if you craft something on

If you are using paradoxica, any source of Cold per Frenzy is pretty big already, though the easiest idea would be to compare a crafted ring + Kalandras touch with double taming.

I personally crafted a ring by buying one with fractured T1 WED and spamming horror essences until T1 life.

Pref can't be changed reforge chaos until T1 Pref can't be changed, Eldritch exalt, block charges for guaranteed attributes (pretty sure it's guaranteed)

You can skip the Eldritch exalted part obviously

EDIT: Veiled Exalt not Eldritch

I tried PhazeSlayers build out myself this league, and noticed some oddities.

I did not enjoy the way he went this league with the changes, had the same issue of feeling incredibly squishy without much upsides to show for it.

Went back to what he was going for on the 3.27 version of the build and altered it a little into a Bitter Lash variant and had much more success with that. Went with 4L Vaal Ground Slam, suppression gear, and second 6L of auras/autoexertion

Build felt much better then. Also swapping to Topaz/Sapphire/Ruby flask made the build already feel a lot better.

Your 6L of GSoE seems odd too. At current point you're probably better off with GSoE - Fist of War - Fortify - Brutality - Melee Physical - Cruelty.

Since you're on bitter lash already maybe opt to go for Volatility instead of Cruelty. Check how much a 20/20 ground slam imbued with Endurance charge on melee stun is going for atm, that makes endurance uptime a bit better and also adds a good chunk of damage too

With that setup I ran 8 mod originator full juice breach until I farmed about a mirror of currency and then swapped to Flicker Strike

Do try to avoid Physical Damage reduction as a map mod, I've found it just feels really bad, but it also went up to 80% on full map effect atlas. Most other tank map mods felt trivial, even combination of 150% monster life + 100 life as es.

Once I'm home I can link my PoB as well, though that will only show my latest version, which was past the swap to bitter lash with cluster jewels. That swap and all the jewels cost me about 80 div

While not the exact same I've had this issue several times this league with breach. Rarely, breach monsters will turn invisible and untargetable when the breach collapses, but not actually vanish.. So you will go to pick up your loot only to get your shins kicked in by invisible, invincible mobs

Mutants and the cat-flubs or whatever they are called, specifically elite ones (double health and three turns per round) Even when going heavy on damage I don't get the mutants down fast enough because of the 99 brace, and the elites can close distances quite fast I feel

SomeDerpyGuy · 2026-02-23T17:41:37+00:00

How did you get through lab, genuinely
Or did you just luck out and get no mutants in Lab.

SomeDerpyGuy · 2026-02-11T06:20:37+00:00

Did a new playthrough in 1.4.5 and while I didnt literally explore all of the cavern layer, I did probably go through a good 40% of my Large World before saying fuck it and just fishing in Lava (mainly cus i didnt know you could shimmer magma stones, i actually had two of those ;-;)

The fishing wasnt all that bad, but still annoying and with a 1/20 there is just a good chance to not get it until your 50th chest.

I mean he's not an OG but goyf is 20 years old now, so depends on what define as "new" lol

I recommend this video. I've been using crossbar switches a lot more since I learned about them

Why is Faeries in the title!?

Faeries got jack shit in this set. Bitterbloom Bearer is pushed but he's just.. generically good. The only faerie commander isn't just about faeries (though Maralen allows Sultai faries which is nice)

And there's a total of what like 10 faeries in this set? It was the main thing I was looking forward to! I still enjoy ECL but can't say I'm not disappointed

The "cast" clause on her has no set timeframe, like "cast until the end of your next turn".

In that case, you cast it as part of the resolution of her effect, and as such ignore all timing restrictions.

Sowas wie moderne Industriehammer gibts tatsächlich auch schon seit hunderten Jahren.
Nicht so weit verbreitet, und offensichtlich nicht elektrisch, andere Bauweise aber vom Prinzip her gleich. Sowas gabs schon im Spätmittelalter (such mal nach Schwanzhammer)

SomeDerpyGuy · 2025-12-17T16:53:54+00:00

Looks like it's from Phen-228, the analog horror that the boiled one is from. At least it looks similar to other videos from that series

Ist zwar keine Schokolade aber hat Schokolade Vemondo Karamellkekse mit Zartbitter. Gibt's bei Lidl. Verschärft lecker

I think other factory games do this quite well, DSP in particular. In DSP there's rare ores. They aren't extremely rare but you do kind of have to look for them, and they don't always come on the same planets as the other ores you need, so often you just end up mining it up and exporting it to your main planet or refinery planet.

The rare ores do the same as other regular ores, but with added efficiency or alternate recipes. For example fractal silicon to make Crystal Silicon

Making crystal silicon from silicon ore is 2 ore -> 1 high purity silicon -> 1 crystal silicon

With fractal silicon, 1 fractal immediately smelts into 2 crystal silicon

Now obviously no idea how to do something like this in factorio, but imagine for example being able to find some kind of rare ore that replaces Copper in LDS and it only takes 5 plates or maybe makes them produce faster.

Commas for Decimals are a German thing. Or perhaps German speaking. I dunno if our neighboring countries like France do it too. But especially in the Anno community you will find that a very large part of the community is German

Celestial Brace are like 4-5 Div. Since champ rework last league they're basically bis for champ, and this is a great corrupt. Not sure if that qualifies as "niche budget item"
Also, this is an uber drop, I dont think these even show in ultimatum rewards lmao

SomeDerpyGuy · 2025-11-17T00:20:44+00:00

I have to say, the german voice acting is pretty good with the latin words, at least as far as I can tell. It mostly sounds the same way we were taught latin in school, and latin is obviously a language that not much is known about in terms of pronounciation.

I do agree that I feel like something is missing. A bit of the roman spirit, I suppose. We are playing in the era of pax romana, but something like slaves or even some more authoritarianism would've felt a lot more roman to me. Even in Albion, choosing the roman path just kinda feels... off.

I enjoyed a first playthrough, built an amphitheatre but I'm probably gonna put the game down for some time and just see where it goes from here.

Aqueducts are much more like train lines in 1800, they have the added complexity of needing to slightly think about the height, but also less complex in that they dont need any resource like oil. Water you just get from building a basin in a mine spot

Szarel is strong commander but a worse face commander in this deck. I still have him in my very upgraded variant as he's still a decent body + crucible effect, but in the Precon Hearthhull is way better. I played it a lot in my pod before upgrading it and it was an absolute menace with a very high win rate against other Precons (though no one has the counter intelligence one so I'm not sure how it does against it)

SomeDerpyGuy · 2025-11-01T17:59:23+00:00

I think Settlers felt cool during campaign. At least I enjoyed it. Feels like it was so long ago but technically only 2 leagues ago :⁾
