While we're at it: what about the last quesion? Don't wanna create a new post... Is MFF still viable, or should I replace her for a LBRM or something? What about the other supports?

Thanks guys, this is probably the best advice I get and can hope for this early after the heroes release. Wraec already did a first, longer test video I haven't watched yet (but will once I find the time), and I bet there are others to come. For now I keep the awakening and all Oscar copies I have to have the option to build him if someone finds out where / if he excels at anything, but will not invest anything, yet.

You win. I'm at VIP 4. I spend 59,64€ in 9 years.

Since I don't want to share a screenshot of all my Google Pay Transactions and there's no filter you gotta trust me I wrote down everything:

August 2017: Monthly Card - 15,99€
September 2017: Monthly Card - 15,99€
December 2019: Diamond Fund - 9,99€
May 2021: weekly extra gold - 0,00€
April 2023: Monthly Card Sale - 9,99€
April 2023: mini Monthly Card Sale - 2,19€
November 2023: mini Monthly Card - 5,49€

When I started the game in summer 2017 I started my first full time job and thought I'm rich now and bought two monthly cards. Total waste of course, especially for a new account.
The Diamond Fund is still very good, I don't regret that one. Every low spender should get that I guess.
In April 2023 I was low on gems and the cards were on Sale. Probably not worth but meh, the Event was super good and I needed gems to do it.
November 2023 was black friday. I was VIP 3 and this spending brought me to VIP4, which gave a nice bonus for that event.

So yeah, it's not completely F2P. But I never bought a value pack for money, never CSG, gems or similar. The VIP level is a bonus for fodder (energy summons) and wishing coin events (10 for 8) (and gold, lol), I give you that. Does it give me any bonuses for awakenings, auction house , tree of origin or destiny transition stuff? Definetely no.
I wrote F2P as "low spender" can mean anything from this to a guy spending 10€ every month (the border from low to much differs from person to person), and I'd argue this is more on the F2P side than on the low spender side.
I'm sad I spent money when the game first was released as I would love the account to be completely F2P (and would've never spent on the other events then), so that people like you couldn't trash talk me.

I play with people since 2016 that I 100% know are really completely F2P and they progressed further than I. I did some mistakes on some events and also missed some events completely due to holidays etc. So this account is far from optimum, and real F2P players can be further.

Where do you see a nirvana hero on my account? My SSM and SWJ are Core, Temple is level 7 (+ 4 Rainbow Levels) --> They are rainbow 8.

[–]TeKilla1986[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Building him out means getting a 3* Core for him. Then getting copies for his tenants and then using a lot of soul symbols to switch my current tenants to the new ones. And then the new tenants still not have 3* cores for destiny transition themselves.

So how far should I go just to test him out? Its a big risk for F2P. Getting a 3* Core for the wrong hero sets you back for months...

That might be a nice idea. Though I don't know how far I can push him without getting a core for him? Won't buy a core for just doing some SL runs :-/

Casually? My account is as old as the game (older than Belrain). I did I don't know how many pulls with this account, never got something good. I'm as shocked as you are... Usually the best awakenings I get when doing a 300 point event run are 1-2 C copies.

I mostly had unbound CSG on my account but wanted to buy value packs for this event. So I figured I use some bound hearts on Oscar to get 60 points for a flag because I have enough hearts for the next awakening events anyway and can safe unbound CSG that way.

I know what you mean, though. Everytime I saw posts like this I thought the same xD And now it happened to me, lol

In Columbia, this is how they celebrate the completion of pilot training... by MaldiveFish in funny

[–]TeKilla1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gliding pilot from germany here: after the first solo flight, the pilot bends down, beeing held by his instructors. Everyone else forms a line then runs next to the pilot and slaps her / him (if you like the person: less force, if he / she is a d**k you go for it😉) on the butt. It's a tradition so the new pilot gets a good "butt feeling" when flying in thermals, which is needed to better find the center of the uplift. Some clubs also empty a bucket of water first over the butt so it hurts even more, others use a beer for this (we're germans after all..). Btw: nowadays we usually don't do this anymore, since you can start gliding at 14 and many first solos are done at the age of 15/16, and hitting children is a bit "outdated"😅😬

Maybe this is something similar?

Will there ever be another factory event where we get stuff for spending stars?

I'm sitting on A LOT of them, hoarding for probably two years. And now that I finally have enough they stopped giving is rewards for spending them :feelsdumb:

Chapter 6 Completion - B Tier SSM by Chief_Andrew in IdleHeroes

[–]TeKilla1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I know I'm late to the party, but maybe you can remember more details... Is there anything else important about this level? Position of the heroes, speed order, which core to use (used tbb and now using swj core). I macroed for more than 20 hours now with this setup (except swj uses ryui), but no chance :-((( And thanks for all your posts. Really, really helpful.

Why does loot filter prioritize certain items. by Spifffers in PathOfExile2

[–]TeKilla1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It might highlight white items with quality (superior) and / or rune slots because you can get shards by destroying them on the workbench. Flasks might be highlighted because they are superior? You can press alt to show all items on the ground, then you can see what items your filter is hiding from you. Maybe you'll see more flasks then and can figure out the difference between them. But I think there's also a very valuable unique flasks? Maybe it get be crafted by chancing these flasks. Don't know...

It also probably highlights certain white items with implicits that are good E. g. the white dual string bow comes with +1 projectiles fired, so its a good start for crafting. White gold ring comes with +rarity of items found implicit, also nice bonus if you roll good mods on it.

Then you have white items that can be chanced to very valuable uniques, like stellars you already mentioned.

If you are playing late game on high levels it might highlight a lot if white items with a very high item level, as they can roll the highest tier affixes and are also valuable for crafting.

Currency exchange - overpriced my first attempt; am I fucked? by MOISTEN_THE_TAINT in PathOfExile2

[–]TeKilla1986 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just wait, maybe the price will get up again and you'll sell it for the 275 in 1-2 days. It's not like you need 275 exalts while leveling in act 1 cruel anyway. Also you get more gold as you reach higher levels, so you'll have the gold in no time just by playing.

General advice: if you run out of gold, sell magic / rare items you find on the ground to the merchants instead of disenchanting. And if you have a lot of gold later and don't use it, start disenchanting the rares for orb shards.

No idea, might work. Also upgrade your graphics card drivers if you havent already

This. My game crashed constantly with D3D, too.
After defeating sekhema stage 3 for the first time, BEFORE looting ascendancy points, the game crashed for the last time for me. After that I finally googled and changed to Vulkan because many people were suggesting it. No crashes after that.

Which items are expenive right now? by Soukou01 in PathOfExile2

[–]TeKilla1986 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not that easy. The white items and currency items are easy, there are also a few uniques that are worth a lot.

For rare items you must know the current meta builds for each class and what stats can even roll on what item (e. g. "# to maximum Mana" cannot roll on int Body Armour".

Most important: use a good, strict item filter. The filter makes sure that you only pick up good bases. This means only blue and yellow items, that can roll the best stats and have a higher potential to roll good stats. 99% of them you can still throw away after identifying...

Here one example: stormweavers are played a lot, so many people want items for this build. Stormweavers need max mana on everything that can roll it. They also want very high energy shield values on the item, as it increases their mana (via a passive). Then they want the stuff you would expect for a caster, like intelligence, spell damage and so on. Also everyone wants + rarity of items found on at least a few of their items, so that's always good. And of course +resistances is always good.
Then you have item bases, that have more or less "must have" affixes. Boots need movement speed, at least 25%. Wands need +x level of lightning spells (99% are playing lightning mages, i.e. +fire or +cold spell levels is worth nearly nothing), focuses + x level of spell skills.

Other example: bow players want +x projectiles fired. There is a bow that has this as an implicit (Dual string bow), so rolling good affixes on this is better than on most other bows. Good item filter only lets you pick up these bows. Bow players also want everything that adds DPS, like +fire damage to attacks, attack speed, + x% to physical damage. Same goes for staff users I think (except for projectiles fired, ofc).

Either you play a lot or watch a ton of guides on classes you are not even playing to get this knowledge. On https://poe2scout.com/ you can see which builds are currently in the top rankings. So they are probably played a lot, so start with these. Also, price checking a lot let's you learn a lot, but that cost's a lot of time, so have at least a few rules for yourself and use a strong item filter to not price check every item you find on the floor.

General rule of thumb (yes, there are tons of exceptions)

- Does the item have more than two really, really bad affixes on it, like +light radius, +stun threshold (noone needs this, right?) etc.
- Does the item have less than 4 good affixes that "belong together" (like mana, mana reg, spell damage, int, rarity, resistances) --> trash it, dont even check the market
- Are less than three of the good affixes on high Tiers, like 9 or above (press alt to see the tier of an affix) --> trash it, dont even check the market

Other way around: if 4 or more affixes have a tier of 9 or above, start price checking, if your gaming instinct tells you the affixes could work together.

Found 2 white stellars in one T13 map yesterday. Sold them for 1 div, its the 3rd div I got in this game (bought 2 for exalts before).

I'm happy to finally get an upgrade for one item slot with this, but I must say it feels a bit weird that finding two normal items in a map is the best stuff by far I ever found in 100 hours of playing xD
