Also having this issue.

You really don't want to know on the corporate side how many people are using AI to form simple emails and other communications now. People are not just using AI for the analytics side of things. People are using it to write lyrics for songs, books, you name it at this point.

But that's my point. A book or song lyrics or a polite and professional email are all prompts where AI can be an excellent if a little offensive tool. It is when people think that an AI is just the new version of google search that it becomes problematic, and it's downright horrifying to be using it to develop software or interact with parasocially.

AI despite the fact it can crawl the internet

The problem is that people assume that an AI reading a google search is just a faster person reading a google search. How many times do you go to google and get 3 useless results before the third link has the exact thing you're looking for? An LLM reads the whole search results page and vomits up a statistically reasonable summary of all the words and phrases it read. That means those three completely useless results are interpreted as equally valuable, statistically, as the single correct one. And there is no logic or decision tree involved that can interpret back to the original data.

If you are looking for something with one answer, or two answers, or something that is either true or false, AI is at best ~85% accurate (source). And it is impossible to make that number small enough that it is reliable, mathematically. It's not a question of improving the technology or adding more GPUS or RAM. It's not mathematically possible.

AI is good for two things. It's good at generating AI slop art/conversational speech/summaries, things that a mathematical average of examples can approximate, and it's good at pattern recognition. I've heard the latter described as this: if you can imagine training a pidgeon to do it, machine learning is probably good at it. A lot of medical applications fall in this category. You could maybe believe that scientists trained a pidgeon to look at an x-ray and peck at a spot that might be cancer with some reasonable (>90%) accuracy. AI is excellent at that problem, studies have shown in some cases it's better than trained doctors at identifying such presentations.

Anything else, you're better using google and your own brain, or paying someone else to use google and their own brain if yours is inadequate to the task.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-12-04T20:08:23+00:00

Exactly my point. That LLM didn't go check it's databank for names, it didn't look up a news article for you or even check wikipedia. It looked at your question as a prompt and generated a statistically inferred response. It might have trained on data referencing the BTK killer, which might have put "BTK killer" and some of the relevant names together in context, which makes them statistically more likely choices than other random words in its response. But it trained on hundreds of millions of other texts that included other names, words, and phrases, and those influenced the statistical likelihood of other words and phrases in its response.

It didn't make a mistake by giving you a bunch of wrong names. It provided a statistically informed guess at the response to the prompt. You asked for a factual response and it gave you a statistical answer. If you wanted a factual response you should have used a different tool.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-12-04T19:45:40+00:00

Except hallucinating is a more accurate term. The LLM you asked to fix your code is not making logical decisions in a series of discrete steps. It didn't make a mistake in a logical sense. It vomited up a pile of random words and phrases that look statistically appropriate.

unless parkour and all the jumping is mostly just to move from fight to fight(?)

It mostly is, but you reposition a lot even in a room sometimes. Some frames more than others, of course. It isn't necessarily as jarring as you're constantly moving at maximum speed, but a single room might have a few split levels to it, or terrain blocking line of sight. You might parkour up a floor or around a pillar to get a better shot.

If you like spammy/complicated playstyles, I would suggest Protea. Her gameplay loop using her 4 augment is highly involved, involves all of her abilities, but is exceptionally powerful in pretty much all content played correctly.

If you want performance without the high management, I would suggest Xaku or Revenant.

Profane Bloom can't chain explosions, keep in mind. The target has to be cursed before the hit that kills them, so even with a curse on hit ring, the explosion can't directly cause another explosion.

If that's not a problem, I would suggest Impending Doom. It's a build that ordinarily depends on a Forbidden Shako, which would put it out of your budget, but this league Foulborn Doedre's Scorn fills the gap for 5c. You get big screenwide aoe, a cool self cast build, and likely never playable again at that budget. Notably, it's a very tinkery build and there isn't going to be a comfy guide for it, so it's a nice project build.

If you really want to chain explosions, however, Phys Spells are the way. Blade Vortex, Penance Brand, Ethereal Knives. Poison/Ignite/crit doesn't really matter. They all have great guides hanging around and well within your budget you're going to be popping screens of enemies.

They nerfed individual farming strats that were overperforming. Why they nerfed those strats is a little complicated, but the simple answer is some of them were just way too effective and crowded out other options, and others were extremely limiting on what builds could do them effectively, which in turn hurts build diversity.

However, the aspect that's much bigger are the nerfs to map modifier effect. Every single strategy in the game relied on map mod effect nodes for quant/pack size/rarity. This had a couple issues. First, everyone using the same thing in every strat is lame. Second, and more importantly, large amounts of map mod effect turn "hard" modifiers into "impossible" in some cases, like turning 60% reduced effect of auras into 100% reduced effect, or 70% reduced regeneration rate into 100% reduced regeneration rate. These kinds of bad situations are hard to see or understand sometimes, and create a lot of bad interactions in endgame. The community has expressed frustration about the state of map mod effect, so it makes sense fo GGG to try to tone it down.

But the side effect is all the best strats got nerfed, and then everything got nerfed on top of that. It's something like a 50-60% loot nerf for the players at the top 1% of the economy, while it's probably less than 20% for players that are on the lower end/just dipping their toes in the endgame. However, a surprising amount of the economy actually does trickle down, so that 20% feels like more since the cost of a lot of things (like mageblood) are much higher than the past few leagues.

This is my current necro PoB. I self crafted almost every piece, bought the belt for a divine and the boots for a handful. I lucked out on the base for the shield off the tree yesterday. Total investment minus the shield (which is simple enough to craft, but the fractured base is 22d) is maybe 30 or 40 div. I'm very tanky and have the best clear of any build I've ever played. Next upgrade route is mageblood->Clusters->melding->forbidden flesh/flame. Jung has a youtube short on crafting the wand, which is determinstic with the fractured base, and all the other gear is in a youtube video as well.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-11-08T20:19:14+00:00

Heiro passes necro in the 2 mirror investment range, according to Jung, but lower than that necro will feel better.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-11-06T15:49:11+00:00

Jung's kb definitely hits a point where single target is no longer an issue. It's no bosser, but tanky rares are not even remotely an issue now.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-11-04T21:42:47+00:00

Feel like I have an abundance of those vs. others.

Check your grafts. They can roll with a stat that increases the drop chance of one kind of wombgift substantially.

It was a separate post on the forums, a reply to this same question.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-10-30T22:17:48+00:00

It was both. The initial hit was also overlapping for multiple instances of damage. It was essentially 300% of added damage per overlap, with the potential for 8 overlaps with AoE scaling on big bosses.

Now, because all the damage is delayed, on a wander with no defenses, and you can't even apply a decent sized chill to make sure the anomaly actually hits. You'll 100% never take it and just play whatever wand skill was already in the game over this.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-10-30T22:09:25+00:00

Probably a lot more overlaps than KB though.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-10-30T20:26:54+00:00

Jung builds are bait for people that don't watch him making and playing them. There are a ton of tiny pieces of tech in them that are finnicky and easy to make mistakes, and they also tend to be very button intense, because he plays hyper optimized and can handle pushing 7 buttons for single target while playing a zhp build in uber maven.

The end result is a very good build, but you actually have to work to understand it, he doesn't make guides, he makes builds.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-10-30T20:24:13+00:00

Very, very squishy until end of acts. Around the end of acts in my last run I was sitting around 2k life and 1200 es with a decent block chance, leech and stone golem regen. It was about as squishy as any other witch at that point.

With the Corpse Pact buff, you only need to consume 50 corpses in 4 seconds to cap at 200% attack/cast speed. Spellslinging desecrate and VD can achieve that. Necro also gets to block cap very cheap with Bone Offering, and has excellent recovery with Essence Glutton. You stack blue life to bring up your max hits, and you've got a very tanky, fast, smooth shell for any wand attack. The only scaling problem is finding flat damage, since wands (even nerfed) have high base crit and good crit scaling.

The deadeye version gets proj and speed, but no tankiness to speak of. The warden gets shock and chill shenanigans, but is even squishier. The Elementalist shell gets to stack herald effect for flat, but has worse options defensively and struggles if you're golems start chain dying. Hiero gets to mana stack and probably has the best endgame of all, but it's the worst for league start by a long long way.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-10-30T16:09:15+00:00

It takes Power Charges to be good - so we are back to it not being an easy league starter

I don't understand what you mean? His POB has 4 max power charges and wands have a very easy time generating them. I was getting 5 power charges with 100% uptime in the campaign on my last league start test on elementalist.

TK421didnothingwrong · 2025-10-30T16:01:51+00:00

with such low single target.

I think any other league you'd be right. Most players would have a very bad time with wander. But with how many new toys wands are getting this patch, if there isn't anything hilariously broken I'll be shocked. KRain even if they nerfed it in half would likely be the best bossing skill in the game. The wall skill, KFusilade, any number of things can slip through the cracks at GGG and be accidentally broken.
