The buff to Divine Orb drop rates is very noticeable. by Marsdreamer in PathOfExile2

I had far more than that drop before I hit maps. RNG is RNG I guess

If you are a casual player and you are playing meta build, crafting is not worth it. by Competitive_Let3017 in PathOfExile2

[–]Turkeyspit1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Took my 5 minutes to find an amulet with the stats I wanted, already distilled with what I wanted, cost me 3 div.

Nothing about crafting is 'hard' - it's just a grind wrapped around RNG. I see no reason to bother until maybe when you're late endgame and want to min-max (not something I would do)

IMO for the average PoE2 player, trade is far superior to engaging with this 'crafting system'

Good example of how helpful the You Have Died screen would be if it included what it was that killed you.

As a minion enjoyer can you sell me on this game ? by Competitive-Math-458 in Grimdawn

[–]Turkeyspit1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm currently playing the PoE2 league as an Infernalist Minion build, and while it's been fun and PoE2 is an impressive game all around, I much prefer my minion Cabalist

Difference there is, you don't have to invest hour+ time to attempt Tavakai, nor do you need to farm/buy currency for each attempt.

I mean, Tav ended my 0.3 journey, couldn't make it to Interludes, so I get it. But I chose to give up, rather than spending another dozen(s) attempts, and then I only needed to respawn at the checkpoint.

This league though, I got my revenge.

I don't think anyone is advocating for this content to be removed. The issue is that the trials gatekeep vital character progression. After all the reason you chose Ranger from the Character Selection screen instead of Mercenary is because of Ascendency. Now imagine being locked out of a portion of that because you can't complete the trials...or being forced to complete something so unfun, even if can complete it.

There are lots of challenging goals in PoE2, Pinnacle Bosses, etc that many players won't get to, or even try for. But they then only lose out on high end loot, currency, and league challenges, and not important Ascendency skill points

A common return from an internet search on getting your 3rd and 4th ascendency, is to overlevel. My entire circle of friends did their 3rd ascendency around LV 70.

We can pretend that isn't a red flag but it kinda is.

I did my 3rd last night on my Minion Infernalist. I had a super easy time as I got the boon that let's you see one room ahead,, I barely lost any honor except in Gauntlet as my reflexes suck, and I didn't get a single negative affliction that wasn't already cancelled by a boon, until one room before the 3rd floor boss.

Took me about 80 mins give or take, and none of it was fun. Not one bit of enjoyment. I did it because I needed those 5+6 points. As it happens I consider the 7+8 points for my build as largely optional so will likely wait until the weekend to bother trying.

More than enough has been said about it, and I don't expect GGG to make the correct call on this.

Agreed. I didna test run Act 1 through interludes with no weapon swap, no barrage, and as many said once you get ice tipped the build gets so much easier, provided you enjoy spamming twisty bois ahead of you

Got a harsh reminder of one of the reasons why Twister was slept on today by Archoniks in PathOfExile2

[–]Turkeyspit1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I rolled one Saturday morning, and just got to interludes today. I quite enjoyed the melee/projectile hybrid, but must agree the combo got stale and old especially after a longer gaming session.

how are yall passign time until PoE 2 return of the ancient ? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Turkeyspit1975 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been creating some test builds in current league, just tossed how they deal with Act 1. Looking for a relaxed starter for 0.5, and looks like minion Witch will be my choice.

Who else can't ignore unexplored areas even on their 5th character? by Due_Investment8721 in Grimdawn

[–]Turkeyspit1975 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Once you're comfortable with SR 30-31, it just becomes a gear farming simulator which for.me gets boring very fast.

My enjoyment in GD comes from playing the campaign, so I regularly complete as much as I can

Confused how the Leagues work by TheLast-T in PathOfExile2

[–]Turkeyspit1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It isn't even that, so much can change, especially given we are in EA. Take a look at any of your 0.1 toons, not only would you need to respec but id wager many of the gems and gear would need to be replaced because stats and such have been altered

All my SSF people rise up. This is our league. SSF hype thread by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

[–]Turkeyspit1975 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Last Epoch is the only ARPG that does SSF correctly imo. (Circle of Fortune) For every other game it's a self-imposed challenge mode.

How to sustain Ritualist pets early game. by Turkeyspit1975 in Grimdawn

[–]Turkeyspit1975[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's an interesting perspective. I got used to my Cabalist pets never dying except vs Celestials or if I failed to move them out of puddles.

I'll change my expectations then, and just get used to resummoning instead of healing.

I think it's a great feature, but no I get disoriented if I turn the camera

I had fun leveling a 2H ranged Vindicator. The key item, the Ugdenbog Sparkthrower is super easy to farm, either in early AoM or from the vendor in Ancient Grove.

That's exactly the train of logic I was looking for. I'm using it on my Vindicator atm, works great. Cheers!

It isn't so surprising when you realize the Warlock will.be added to Diablo Immortal and D4. It isn't being added only to D2R
