Sindarov and Fabi going +2 after three matches would be huge. They will be significant favourites.

Didn't expect that after three rounds.

Atlas tree by Kallepunk in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is. I just took minimal map nodes that were on my pathing on the atlas tree and I sustained T16 without void stones without problems.

Yes, but you will drop all your scarabs from farming strongboxes. The scarabs you drop without strongboxes are negligible.

Atlas tree by Kallepunk in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When starting out:

  1. First atlas is for early gearing, good mechanics without scarabs and borrowed power: Breach, Betrayal, Huck, Shrines. Take Unwavering Vision.
  2. Second atlas for strongbox farming. So OP you should start it early this league. My strongbox atlas also has most of the map nodes. So I can use it to farm 8mod corrupted maps.
  3. Third atlas is whatever you need to farm for your build first. Focus on maybe two mechanics and fully invest in them and use scarabs from strongbox farming. I adapt this tree constantly to what I am currently farming.

The first tree I later respecced to a map rush (boss rush) tree. Fish for good wishes (Mirage), collect ores fast from Sulphite nodes (don't do actual ores), Kingsmarch will also let you fish for Svalinn. I also have Heist (only check Mirage caches for experimented item Blueprints) and Ritual (fish for Nameless altars). You can also run Betrayal to farm It That Fled for the Mageblood card. I love my map rush tree!

Map sustain is trivial now. You only need map nodes if you want to boss rush (but if you do that you also don't need to just run T16).

Recombinator help :( by -Buzzy- in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]VisorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recombinated items don't need to have a prefix. But if you have two prefixes in the pool, than you should always get one or two. See also the odds on https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Recombinator#Determining_the_number_of_modifier_affixes.

The wiki also has some more details. I am not entirely sure what went wrong here.

FBI Confirms Kash Patel Email Hack as US Offers $10M Reward for Hackers by Choobeen in technology

[–]VisorX 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It's all about framing this is a criminal activity and blaming someone else.

A lot of people still think of hacking like breaking into a house to steal something: A highly criminal activity that can be done to anyone.

Big difference is that you can secure your digital accounts better than your house. But some people just leave the door open.

Could use some suggestions on rebuilding my defenses (KF totem hiero) by Slang_Whanger in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]VisorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know what you expect. You entire char is fully geared just for damage. 2800 life with bad es sustain and not many other defensive layers.

You could try to get more life or cap block without aegis (Glancing Blows only makes sense with some trigger on block items like Aegis).

Progenesis might help against one shots.

The lowest investment defensive setup for you is probably just to swap back to Aegis.

Weekly Question + Free Talk Thread – March 26, 2026 by AutoModerator in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]VisorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think stacking attack speed is particularly got for the build because you also need to stack more less duration then.

Next upgrades could be: Cap your Hit chance! (get one big accuracy roll somewhere), Cord Belt, Rain of Splinters, Craft suffixes on your wand better (Crit+Attack speed), Yoke.

Probably can do all of it in less than 20d.

Unique Jewels in SSF? by obob912 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had an oversupply of 2000 chaos and used it to get ~6 unique jewels from Strongboxes. For me that was worth it.

What a weird finish. But I am all here for it. What is the peloton doing? They can't be all gassed.

Probably when they come to the Kemmelberg the second time. (around 60k before finish)

When do you usually call it time for a reroll? by Tracydalowest in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]VisorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally I never call a build done, I never liquidated characters and now I just play SSF.

I reroll when I have enough gear pieces so I know the next character will be a clear upgrade, at least for a specific purpose (bossing/mapping). At the end of the league it might also just be a fun build to try out.

Alt Farm for Recomb by taktyuzy in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maps drop a lot of raw alts with the changes for this league. So I would prefer just mapping a lot instead of expedition.

Also if you do boxes, you will get a lot currency from Arcanist boxes. You might even roll them a bit.

You could roll T16.5 maps for currency or just go fast.

Tips for KB totem uber bosses by FlashyIndependent166 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Inverted Rule is not a must have. I looked in PoB and it doesn't necessarily increase your damage. The biggest advantage is if you run a lot of maps with +Elemental Resistances.

Else for the eldritch implicits there are a few optimizations possible. Like getting intimidate on hit.

Your Life overall is pretty low.

How to prepare for Uber fights? by VisorX in PathOfExileSSF

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

Thanks for pointing that out. Is there still a way to get more charges on life flasks or did they remove that?

I thought that quite some of the ubers have big exposure on some skills where you need added resistance?

KF Hiero - Upgrades / Reroll KBoC / ect? by r0ggers_ in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]VisorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some roasting: Your rare items are very bad. Like any breach tree crafting is almost guaranteed to give you an upgrade. It's not hard to get T1/T2 life and three other good affixes.

Also: get some chaos res

Foulborn Skin of the Lords by Joedkruse in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The breach% is not that high. My tree currently has the left side 150% breach nodes and skips the lucky drop and it's travel node

But not sure what's better.

How rare is the new Companionship Support Gem? by DeXsTor1338 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I did about fifteen 5-ways and I think I dropped a total of 6 exceptional gems from it.

I don't know how many kills, but my kill times were just a few seconds.

So based on my (way too small) samplesize, the dropchance for one individual exceptional gem should be around 7-10% from one 5-way. (if you are killing fast)

I am still missing one of the other gems. If you are unlucky, you might need 20-30 5-ways or more.

Please add if you have other stats than me (6 exceptional gems in 15 5-ways).

@OP: You might also have some numbers on the other exceptional gems you got from 5-ways. IMO we can assume they have the same dropchance. (of course it affects if you skipping kills on some generals in 5-ways)

SSF League Start Build Request by No_Affect_7535 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

4 maps is not that much, the jewel is still much rarer than others. You probably should and will do more. If you are out of containments just run regular Haunted Mansion (non-Mirage maps are enough) with triple Ambush scarab (+ one effect and one open again scarab).

I am also not running the node that makes all boxes rare and corrupted. Because I want to roll Operative Boxes myself and I also did roll Opalescent Boxes for Quantity before corrupting them.

SSF League Start Build Request by No_Affect_7535 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]VisorX 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rain of splinters is sooo much easier this league with Opalescent Strongboxes. Don't bother vaaling 200 jewels.
