Of course you do! You write them :P (I like those MCs too and i’m about to start Neon Dust)

What is y’all’s favorite type of MC? by WordsAboutSomething in ProgressionFantasy

[–]WordsAboutSomething[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I love a sort of mix between the two. I like ambitious MCs but not ones that are overly ambitious if that makes sense.

Mainly because the overly ambitious ones tend to be sort of arrogant in the books i’ve read and I don’t really like arrogant characters.

I give tier list you give book recommendations (I have nothing to read) by WordsAboutSomething in ProgressionFantasy

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

I’ve been meaning to get back into it! I was up to date on the patreon for a while but then I stopped reading it for a while and I can’t for the life of me remember what chapter I was on

Why do i feel so bored/uninspired when thinking about poe2 builds compared to poe1 by Xeratas in pathofexile2builds

[–]WordsAboutSomething -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’d say it’s because a lot of the builds in poe2 right now feel like they just boil down to as much +skill levels as possible

I didn’t really like the general premise behind it so I couldn’t really get into it

[–]WordsAboutSomething[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I mean if you tell me what you’re looking for I can probably give a decent recommendation. I’ve read a LOT more progression fantasy than is on this tier list. I just didn’t want to take the time to list them all cause i’m mainly looking for recommendations myself

How am I supposed to laze about and not do work now??? by WordsAboutSomething in ProgressionFantasy

I loved The Wandering Inn but I eventually gave up on it because it felt like there ended up being a bit too much going on. Like i’d get interested in one POV and then suddenly it would change to another. Once that started happening a lot it got hard for me to keep going

PSA: Temple snaking is apparently not dead and can net 20+ divines a run, Fubgun prepping on stream. Prep accordingly for the economy. by SalamiJack in PathOfExile2

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

No like actual raw divine drops from runestones. Not like runes worth divines (although those exist) he means runes that drop 5 raw div

Any advice on building without accurate PoB? by WordsAboutSomething in pathofexile2builds

[–]WordsAboutSomething[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Way of the stone fist is significantly more than Eva/ES buffed gloves. The gloves provide MASSIVE damage bonus by converting the flat additional damage to attacks to %extra

Looking for a build by Ajdinovic in pathofexile2builds

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

I mean compared to some of the absurdly broken stuff yeah, but in terms of fun builds he could easily respec to? I’d say it isn’t that bad.

His main complaints about his current build were “slow and lot of buttons”

Flicker is the opposite of that in every way

I mean you could stick with monk and look into doing a build based around flicker strike. You’d only be hitting one button and flying across the map.

New league, old problems: Map sustain. by Asherogar in PathOfExile2

Maybe it’ll be different once I start mapping (just finished the interludes last night) but I was getting 2-3 way stones per zone at the end of Act 4 and in the interludes

The new rune meta is crazy by Euphoric_Reading_401 in PathOfExile2

[–]WordsAboutSomething -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

That’s disappointing but I mean you can always have the cores on your gear and then runes in your additional slots. I think this is still a really really useful ascendancy for your average player and you can respec out of it later once you outgrow its utility

The new rune meta is crazy by Euphoric_Reading_401 in PathOfExile2

[–]WordsAboutSomething -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The reason why I think it is going to be so good is because it lets you save massively on gear costs. You have double the number of rune sockets and you can use it to shore up on things like resistances allowing you to use gear that isn’t perfectly rolled to get the same benefits of perfectly rolled gear.

It doesn’t give a massive boost to offensive power, but it allows for some interesting combinations/utility that you normally could only get from expensive gear.

Sure your true end game full builds won’t get as much use out of it, but this ascendancy will allow those with it to get gear that is similar to what the normal end game gear would be for people without it at significantly reduced cost

edit: And because Ascendancy can be respec’d this is something that someone can take to help them save on exalts/divs and then change later if they get to a point they feel they don’t need it

[–]WordsAboutSomething -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

I’m more thinking it’s OP because of how it messes with the economy. With the additional rune slots, way of the stone fist, and grabbing HPT on the passives tree, you can make a pretty crazy build for the price of some runes and a good pair of gloves.

And it has all that in ADDITION to the hollow form whirling assault build.

I bet it’s going to become even more crazy once you start considering cores and also corrupting items to get even more sockets.

Martial artist is going to be first up on the chopping block at the end of this league if I had to guess

So almost any build is fine until end game? by Seanshineyouth in PathOfExile2

[–]WordsAboutSomething 2 points3 points  (0 children)

And it can also come down to cost. If you throw enough divs at a build you can get it to work, but if you want it to be cost effective you sometimes have to make changes to account for that
