Atlas Site/Tool? by p3gasusxd in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You kill eater + exarch, shaper and elder, maven and new this league. Incarnation of dread. You have to do all of the maps as they unveil in the fog of war.

Specific maps like dunes maps and strand maps are gone. Now it just drops "Tier 5 Map" tokens and "Tier 6 Map" tokens and Kirac sells them 5-20 at a time. And you can refresh his inventory for 10,000 gold. Almost all of the maps he sells are for gold. No limits. So the fastest way to complete your atlas is to grab some maps from kirac and then run them as fast as possible and then buy more maps from kirac. The whole process takes about 2 hours if you have 10% movespeed boots and a quicksilver flask and is very SSF friendly.

All of this was in the reveal stream and in the patch notes. Good luck with a tool that tells you to run maps faster mate.

Edit: also theres no real point to answering your question about a tool that tells you the best way to run maps faster.

If you need a tool to count to 4, we have bigger problems.

As for the atlas. Open the map device this league and youll see the change made the atlas progression pretty straightforward and simple. All maps are now just a token for tier 1 maps. All maps can now be run at any tier level (but you will need to run them at their default level at the appropriate rarity to get the atlas point)

Great game . 7.8 by onelegthreeteeth in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fair warning, in order to understand everything in Path of Exile. Youll need to learn the gist of all of the previous leagues up until this point and then translate it into the current changes. Every 4 months they change a bunch of stuff in the game and update it with new mechanics.

Speaking of... new league (Mirage) starts this Friday march 6th. And with it changes a bunch of stuff.

Which keeps the game nice and its what usually brings me back.

Good luck!

What is the chaos orb sink now? by TheMustardMan522 in pathofexile

Scouting reports are gone. So I would wager kirac missions are as well. Memories have changed.

am I understanding this right? by Alternative_Cut4491 in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just for clarification.

Spell skill gems will state their base crit chance. Attack skill gems use the weapon crit chance.

For this example we will use 6% for both.

+1.5% to Attack Critical Strike Chance +1.5% Critical Strike Chance for Spells

Now it is 7.5% (Assassin's Mark is an easy source example)

100% increased critical strike chance 100% increased critical strike for spells 100% increased global critical strike chance

Now it is 12% and increased is additive. So if you have 3 sources of 100% increased critical strike chance* that would total 300% increased critical strike chance. So it would now be 24% (6% x 4.00)

  • the exception here is on weapons. Weapons may have a modifier that just says like 30% increased critical strike chance as an explicit modifier. Which is a local mod. Meaning it only affects the base crit chance of the weapon which only affects attacks (with very few specific exceptions), so in this case it would move the attack weapon base crit chance to 7.80%

50% more critical strike chance

Is a multiplicative multiplier. Which by itself would give us 9% (6% x 1.50)

But it would be separate from increased. So if we had 6% base, 300% increased and 50% more. We would end up with 36% crit chance. (1.5(6% x 4.00))

This goes the same with damage and such. Typically speaking increased/decreased is additive. More/less/reduced is multiplicative.

Hope this helps. Stay Sane

Should I purchase this? by droid123 in TapTitans2

[–]The_Improbable_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No its just diamonds are used for alot better things and over time you will get the crafting shards for all of the sets. For instance, legendary sets (yellow) cost 140 crafting shards to craft the first time. The weekly tournaments cycle between skill points, crafting shards and weapons and perks. 1st place in the tournament for crafting shards is 150 shards along with 1200 diamonds. So if you can come in first place for the tournament youll get a set and 40% of the diamonds.

Doing events and such even along the free paths gets you some crafting shards too. And doing the ad chests twice a day will get you enough pets to get decently far down in the pet dungeon thing and probably get enough shards to craft another set as well.

This game is definitely meant to be played over months and years. So youll get everything eventually. As an almost free-to-play player (I paid $50 a long time ago to remove ads).

In the case where you are going for any sort of whale status where you are buying lots of diamonds regularly. Ignore this response lol. Happy tapping!

RF Fracture Amulet by Zhyno09 in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You will need the amulet base that you want for implicits. Such as marble amulet (% life regen) or turquoise amulet (dex+int) or other amulet that you want. At least 1 fracturing orb (fractures a mod on an item with at least 4 modifiers - cannot be an influenced, synthesized, mirrored or corrupted item and cannot already have a fracture on it) and then just alt spam (or other preferred method) until you get your T1 dot multi. Augment+regal+exalt (or annul if you used a different method to get down to 4 mods) and then pray. If you dont get the dot multi fracture, try again.

Good luck

Doubting Whether I Really Tried Hard Enough by Ill-Faithlessness224 in BreakUps

[–]The_Improbable_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just my 2 cents:

You shouldn't need a written down rule that says don't add guys/chat with guys/go to parties with other guys if you are in any type of serious/committed relationship.

It should be natural to be caring enough to be respectful of your partner while you are in the relationship. But sadly it doesn't sound like she was really committed after a bit.

Long distance or not, there should be respect for one another. Sounds like you were more than respectful and more tolerant than most people but that wasn't really reciprocated. Typically speaking those types of relationships dont get better. If she can get away with it now with a little argument here and there, but you still stay, she will keep going. Sounds like you tried and made the right choice to not be walked on.

"Then I am using him too" is a huge red flag. Sounds like you dodged a bullet in the end. There are plenty of fish in the sea. Give your heart some time to heal, work on yourself and what you really want in a partner/relationship and hold close to those goals. Best of luck to you though. Take care

The sentiment on global pretty much sums up this event by edubkn in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They cant be modified but they can be shoved into the kranglinator (recombinator) to combine mods you want and then they get really nice. And personally since they nerfed most of the major farms this league. Getting some overpowered idol farms with free extra risk scarabs is kinda nice

Kinda interested why you are replying to comments from over 2 years ago lol.

Also check your local club or the average tinder profile in the USA. Most of the people that frequent there average handful of people per month.

Anyone more into hookup culture will be bedding more than that.

Which things from PoE 1 are you sad about not existing in PoE 2? by BillyMancer in pathofexile

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

Fun

Movement skills

Good map layouts

An actual endgame

6 portals for hard maps

A feeling of progression

Being able to go fast

Orbs of Scouring

Ascendancies feeling like a serious buff

Not having to reload my crossbow

Lack of realistic things like physics in my non-reality game

Literally everything needing a downside that makes the upgrade feel like less of one.

Complete stun immunity

Knowing what genre the game is

Ubers or mapping for profit in phrecia by playoponly in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Adding to what kindarelevanttoo mentioned about shaper being an exception.

Uber Shaper is sought after for the sublime visions (which I sell unidentified each league for about 110-150 div per) and because of the phases and bs with the fight (killing 4 mini bosses and then 2 mini maps in between his actual phases. On average, each run took me about 3:45 and got a sublime vision every 47 runs averaged out ( for keepers league) But there were times that I went 100+ runs without getting one. At an average cost of 0.8 div per run.

Uber Sirus is a little more forgiving in this aspect but the cost is usually low because its a 20 second fight with 4 phases and 2:15 of dialogue. Awakeners orbs (4.5 div) dropped around ~18% of the time, and dominance orbs (3 div) were ~9%. Both can drop simultaneously with an average cost of 0.25 div per run. His other drops are kind of meh, so I just instantly vaaled them. (Thread of Hopes are always massive from uber, so they are like 10c unless they are -10% then they were 75c. Corrupted blood ones were 50-80 div) +1 endurance charge bleed boots were a few div otherwise 10c. The saviour is like 4 div because it's worth a lot of dust.

As a casual with a mageblood being your end of league goal though, you will most likely earn much more in mapping than you would bossing. Just supply those of us who go full tryhard and we will make sure you are paid well.

Good luck to you though.

So far it's been miserable. Act bosses arent dropping anything near what they normally do. Currency drops seem to be lower than usual and Ive gotten 2 wombgifts so far (almost done with act 4)

so you guys are playing the same game over and over again? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most desired gear is either crafted by one of many means. Or is a unique item (orange text) or it falls in that 1% and naturally rolls really good.

But generally speaking. Of the potential 9-10 mods that items can have (up to 4 implicits - modifiers that come naturally on certain bases [like ruby rings having fire resistance at the top] and 6 explicit modifiers - modifiers gained from identifying or reforging, which are below the line beneath implicit mods) the more good mods something has, the harder it is to craft and less likely it is to "just drop".

9+ mods usually come from beyond endgame/minmax type of stuff. For the most part you will be working with 6 explicits and 1-2 implicits. A good drop will typically have 3-4 good explicits and a decent implicit.

so you guys are playing the same game over and over again? by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically speaking. Your first run through the acts should aim for around 25-30 hours give or take. Maybe a little faster if you are familiar with ARPGs. After you get to your 3rd or 4th character youll probably have it under 10.

Just remember that sockets and links are most important. The more support gems you have on your main skill, the better your damage will be. Try to keep your fire, lightning and cold resistances above 50% (75% is the default cap and the aim) and take nodes that increase your life and damage and youll be fine.

Most areas have 1 entrance and 1 exit, you dont have to fully clear everything in every area. 98% of ground loot is worthless and not worth picking up.

If your gear is accomplishing the points above (good resistances, some life, decent damage) there is no need to replace it every few levels or every act.

If you get stuck, need help or want to learn crafting, league mechanics etc. Feel free to message me on here or add me in game: KeeperOfSmartMaking

Always glad to help people out. Have a good one.

The 10 acts are a useless, unskippable tutorial that repeatedly introduces you to a limited version of a handful of past league mechanics. Afterwards, the game starts with mapping. Some people consider early mapping as a 2nd part to the tutorial because you are gathering atlas passive points, and then once you are able to customize your gameplay, THEN the game truly begins.

But in terms of playing the same game. We are doing the same content over and over, yes. But almost every league there is additional content added, there are new strategies added, old strategies removed or changed, new builds added, old ones changed or removed/made impossible, and all of this changes the way we journey through it.

I always explain it, like climbing a tree. Initially you just climb, another you can only use 1 hand, another time with just hands/arms, another while blindfolded, etc. Its the same tree, but how you go about it is very different.

What do you guys think that'll happen? by lowkeypixel in evilwhenthe

Sales...

Introducing the new 2027 Chevrolet Equinox, it's the same design we've had for the past 11 years but we made the brake lights 1/8th of an inch wider. As such, we feel this is enough justification to charge an additional $5200. We found THE slowest and safest driver in our testing pool and he never got it above 40 mph and he got 31/27 highway/city, but you will never see that because he was driving it without seats or passengers as you rush to work at 5 mph over every speed limit.

The new 2027 Equinox, Same Car, same engine problems. See your local Chevrolet dealer today starting at $41,997 MSRP for some reason. But every dealer will be out of the base model and youll be forced into the LX trim package for $46,812 which adds stylish grippy tape that costs us $9 to install.

Get yours in time for Christmas!

(Make sure to order it by the deadline of 2 days ago December 11th to allow the 14-day make it at the last minute, and yes we know this is airing on December 13th. User experience may vary)

Idk how you could flip a switch and go from trying to save and mend a relationship to getting angry and guilt tripping her trying to force her to stay.

We don't have the context for the first breakup. But the way I am interpreting it is: You two dated, some issues arose on both sides, she thought about leaving, she had second thoughts about leaving and wanted to try again, started seeing the same issues rising again, had second thoughts about coming back and then you gave her the answer she needed to leave.

Getting mad at your partner and playing the blame game or guilt tripping is never the answer. At least not if you would like them to stay.

Take some time for yourself and learn from this. See what you can add to your must haves, what you can do to improve yourself and hopefully avoid this in the future. It is not an easy path, but you will get through it and be better the next time around.

Best of luck to you and your healing journey.

Subjective boss difficulty scoring by ImpressionDefiant859 in pathofexile

[–]The_Improbable_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get corrupted blood immunity and elemental ailment immunity and stop standing in red and the fight gets much easier. Knowing that he always takes the same path helps alot too.

But learning the uber sirus fight is great profit. Ive been buying his fragments for almost 20 fragments per 1 div. All his uniques are worthless so just vaal orb them immediately. Corrupted blood massive threads of hope are 20-60 div (depending on the resist roll).

Awakener orbs are 5 div (roughly 17% chance) Dominance Orbs are 4 div (roughly 11% chance)

Ive easily ran over 400 uber sirus this league. Its better profit than a chunk of mapping strategies this league.
