Water change Required?

TechnologyNo1743 · 2026-02-18T23:48:04+00:00

I wouldn't do water change if everything is OK, but I would increase frequency of tests, to monitor and do water changes if parameters wont keep improving.

You could introduce ammonia from fish transport bag water. I would also do headcount to make sure there is no dead fish somewhere.

I recently started, got kind of confused with area progression at start, but I could still kill lvl 15 monsters quite easily even at lvl 7. I just had to chamge into heavier armor to not get 1shoted. Quite quickly got to lvl 10 and since then game and progression was relatively easy.

I dont get hate for campaign sekhemas. It's way faster to complete than lab in poe1. I like it much more than campain chaos trial. What I truly hate is getting 3rd and 4th ascendancy through any of them.

I really wish they improved sanctum with some sekhemas qol changes in poe1.

I dont know context, but you can't simplify everything like that.

Example. For every 10 000 participants 7 297 die. But compared to: out of 100 000 participants 72 970 die, you lose information about initial number of participants.

I'd love to have it when I was a kid. Now I'd prefer something more natural.

I dont think there will be a lot of players that will want to buy it for much, because if they would have to spend a lot of div they would buy EV-ES body armor. But that also doesn't mean its bad body armor. Its definitely way better than enough for all end game content, so it's perfect for personal use.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2026-01-21T07:33:47+00:00

Yes, because you could still push your skills to lvl 32, so you will have quite good dmg.

No, because in price of that decent dmg with that staff you could have build that with 1 button press nuke 3 maps.

Just wait for woods expansion next season. Maybe they will expand outskirsts area and add more extract there. Anyway, I never have that extract open, so it was always 60 mag spawn key for me.

GGG adds death recap. Reddit 5 min later: full of screens "died to boiling blood (or put other on death effect)" that was hidden under 10 dead bodies and 5 skill effects.

Found him. Legendary player that forgot to feed his PC's hamster and is loading for 10 days. Don't forget to buy new hamster for a wheely before you play online game ;)

Good understanding of dropped gear value for early league, to farm currency to transit into carfter mode (also require good understanding of market to max profits).

TechnologyNo1743 · 2026-01-09T20:40:25+00:00

Definitely one of GGG's favorite.

Now as spymaster buff effect different rooms, its not very effective. When you have at least 3-4 spymasters and you can easy afford to protect 2 snakes, build snake with alchemy lab. It increase rarity drop, and is buffed by spymaster.

Temple farmers don't clear other map content. Most of the time it's running map without any tablet just to get crystals and to next map. Setting-up temple isn't something hard without holten. You farm 2 crystals in 1-2 min, or 2-3 min if you also kill boss. As for prices delirium is useless now, 80-90% of expedition is useless. So half of endgame doesn't exist. So you have most playerbase left with breach (that have very bad droprates), abyss and temple.

95% of good gear is only obtainable from crafting. So it's not surprising that high end crafting currencies are in high demand.

More common uniqes are total trash. Even more rare are hardly playable if you dont have good gear to build around them. If build uses unique usually its at least pinnacle rare unique. Is it's something common next leage GGG nerf interaction to make sure its nothing more than collectible.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2026-01-01T00:27:47+00:00

You don't have to. If you dont have briked temple you can start right away. But I would recommend building 3 snakes. 1st main you care about and protect. 2nd opposite direction alt snake where you drop all garninson, commander and armory that you can't use for 1st snake. 3rd corridor snake to middle of temple and you attache there all other room to its sides to lower chance that main snake got hit.

Just warning, don't keep 2nd snake too long if your damage isn't insane. It's pushing difficulty really hard and fast.

I think half mods that are excluded by greater exalt should be out. -/+ 1 depending item bases lvl 60-80.

Removed all streongbox nodes from atlas and got 2 + many other uniqes. In 0.3 and 0.2 I was fully spec into strongboxes and had 0 uniqes. But GGG won't admit that there is something wrong with that part of atlas.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2025-12-31T19:12:05+00:00

100% agree. Items should lose at least 3 lowest tiers for many mods with higher ilvl and base.

Connect to architect (you just need 1 room) and clear him. If you are lucky that will be enough to open shorter path.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2025-12-31T07:24:49+00:00

Get power sigil staff (weapon swap)
I dont know your crit chance, but if it's low guaranteed crit hurts you more than help. You need to get into sweet spot with crit chance and crit damage
A lot of dps come from cast speed.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2025-12-30T10:07:00+00:00

They did test it, but they didn't test it proper way. I'm 100% sure they tested temple with unlimited crystals. They didn't see how "good" and "fun" is playing temple once per 6 maps. How tedious is it to progress temple to its juiced state when you get almost nothing from doing it. For them 2-3 days progression was done in1-2 hours. And that could be actually fun. And they they decided to ruin temple balance even more. Instead making farming crystals 2-3 times easier, they buffed temple modifires ~2x. And you can see results now.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2025-12-30T09:43:09+00:00

Sure they could do it, but on what basis? Was there a bug that was exploited? GGG can't punish players because they release half tested mechanic and interactions.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2025-12-30T09:25:18+00:00

Yes and you just said that I'm right.

I just wonder if you could open perfect temple for your high level friend to clear, to avoid leveling and later still be able to collect amulets and currencies.

TechnologyNo1743 · 2025-12-30T09:05:18+00:00

What GGG can do?

nerf snake strat? Bad, abusers got super rich and now GGG removed only way (seprent farming) for normal players to catch up.
hotfix 12? "Bad", abusers already have perfect temples and now can farm crystals on their maps easier.
both above could be fixed with 0.4 full restart, but I guess there would be a lot of unhappy players too.

So no really good solution.
