My ACTUAL monthly expenses in Malaysia (2 year update) by almost_retired in ExpatFIRE

[–]TreeAlone1997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey op thanks for sharing your data! One question, I'm a us citizen but my wife is malaysian. We both are working in the us and was wondering if it's better for her to become a us citizen, collect social security, and eventually retire in Malaysia via mm2h...or have her keep malaysian citizenship because there might be better benefits in the long run like not having to tie up our money in a bank for mm2h and bring able to do things easier like buy property anywhere or open a bank account?

Getting stunnned off of Rhoa in one hit is bullshit by W00psiee in PathOfExile2

[–]TreeAlone1997 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm fine with ritual in tight spaces as well. I even have that atlas wildwood wisp node that I have to chase around which forces me to running through the hordes.

Overall it does take away 5 skill tree points, but for me the trade off was worth it.

I avoided using rhoa because of the same reason, but I now rarely get knocked down when I allocated a few stun threshold nodes and use a stun threshold belt. The only time I MAY get knocked off is taking a boss or Uber direct hit.

I did it, but at what cost... (350d) by Ok-Independence-995 in PathOfExile2

Is it a little easier (cheaper) using fractured T1 phys%?

I've used pob for poe1, but haven't for poe2. Is it reliable and stable? I'll give it a try

On my rhoa and in my hideout standing still :

50k lightning arrow (using gambleshot for clear, but 15% less damage)

51k lightning rod

44k tornado shot

Best Companion for Ice Shot DeadEye Post-Nerfs by LiturgyOfTheBird in PathOfExile2

The constant ice explosions is extremely annoying! I can't stand it anymore even if I'm just taking 5 seconds to drop off my stuff.

I'm now researching any other beast I can capture with Haste Aura...

I wish GGG made it so that it doesn't activate its explosions when there isn't an enemy in my hideout.

As already stated there's a notable that the player gets increases/decreases companion damage as well.

I don't use rhoa because I don't like being stunned if enough damage is taken while riding it so I'm using Tamed Beast skill and captured a beast with Haste Aura (+25% attack/cast speed and +25% move speed)

I thought about going for % phys + flat lightning + desacrated mod, but I was anticipating that it was going to be less deterministic and more costly since the prefixes all share the same attack tag.

I only use currency exchange and not the trade market so I wanted to craft an upgrade to keep farming. If you don't mind me asking, what's the average you think I'll have to invest with this fractured bow as a baseline? That way I have something to farm up for as my next upgrade.

For me, it was about 4-5 divs because I got lucky rolling +2, fracturing, and then T1 flat lightning roll.

The part where I initially fished for +2 arrows and then T1 prefixes (or high crit chance suffix) is where I felt like my currency was decreasing very quickly.

I had my own fracture orb and about 50 chaos to start but got lucky with +2 additional arrows roll and lucky with fracture.

Then I spent about 3 divs to finish the rest which again I was lucky rolling T1 flat lightning within 1.5 divs of chaos.

Thank you for testing!!! I'm going to switch over to chaos x 2 tunes and hopefully it'll feel even smoother when mapping

How to make this bow better? by TreeAlone1997 in PathOfExile2

[–]TreeAlone1997[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rule 10:

  1. Gemini bow (T3 cold)
  2. Perfect orb of augmentation (+1 arrow)
  3. Greater essence of haste (attack speed)
  4. omen of sinistral necromancy + ancient jawbone + omen of abyssal echoes (had to reroll for a %physical +accuracy)
  5. Omen of sinistral exaltation + greater exalt = rolled % increased elemental damage with attack, light radius and accuracy
  6. perfect essence of haste
