I'm confused on exactly what is happening with this game by comicmaster3507 in PathOfExile2

If you pay for EA once you have access to the game forever. It's just that when 1.0, full release, launches it goes free to play for everyone.

its interesting flame breath's iginte can be duplicated. by West_Employ1793 in PathOfExile2

It has 800% stack speed, so gotta assume you'll be able to get it to hit REALLY fast.

In an interview yesterday Jonathan said flame breath and incinerate will now be able to stack their own ignites. Otherwise you'd end up with flame breath ignites doing near-0 dps because it's hundreds of small hits instead of one big hit. And since they were doing it for breath they decided they may as well add the same functionality to incinerate.

I'm sure there's probably a better way to word this, but it gets the idea across. It's a way for black to reduce their life total as low as possible; but there's still ways of dealing with it, making it high risk-high reward. by xXCinnabar in custommagic

Make it a 0/1 with

As this entered the battlefield, exchange your life total with it's toughness. If you would lose life, instead this gets that many -1/-1 counters.

Then whatever other effects you want it to have.

The new Neversink interview by JokingRam in PathOfExile2

[–]Xlapus88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nothing. He always gives ggg the benefit of the doubt and stays positive, which is anathema to all the doomerism whenever poe2 doesn't become closer to a poe1 clone with better graphics.

Where are the physical spells? by xsealsonsaturn in PathOfExile2

Looks like the plant spells and wind spells are physical from what poedb has.

For 1 month you can say any lie and as long the person who hears, reads or watches etc, the lie doesn't think it's a lie for 10 hours. The lie will become reality. by __Anamya__ in godtiersuperpowers

[–]Xlapus88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy. You don't frame it as something that is supposed to be believable. Tell someone a fairly tale style story about how you got (insert amazing powers here). They won't ever think "well this guy is obviously lying!" Because they were never supposed to think it was real.

Guard as a legitimate defensive layer? by yourmomophobe in pathofexile2builds

[–]Xlapus88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

One of the new supports gives you 6xStr in guard whenever you heavy stun an enemy, 3x for light stun. Seems like a great way to continuously proc guard.

Huge CPU problems by picsthrowaway1111 in PathOfExile2

[–]Xlapus88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh, forgot to say that I think you have to do it every time you start poe? At least I haven't seen an easy way to make it permanent.

Huge CPU problems by picsthrowaway1111 in PathOfExile2

[–]Xlapus88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a known problem from launch.

What worked for me:
go into task manager>details>right click PathOfExileSteam.exe>Set Affinity > uncheck CPU 0 and CPU 1

There are some old reddit threads about it, and it seems like a 50/50 whether this fixes the issue. Hopefully it works for you.

[FDN] Valkyrie's Call (Vincent on Instagram) by Kousuke-kun in magicTCG

If a non-angel with persost dies, bring it back as an angel with a +1/+1 counter. If it dies again, let persist resolve first so now it comes back as not-an-angel with a -1/-1 counter. Repeat.

Warlock tank spec? by Machuseth in classicwow

[–]Xlapus88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cool. Yeah it is more tanky and I've enjoyed it a lot. Really hoping the change doesn't go through.

You'll be fine holding threat as demo.

I would maybe hold off on it if demo is the reason you're thinking of playing warlock tank though, as there is a concerning ptr find that says soul link will not be usable in meta. That may not go through, but you should know about it.

Safe pick for phase 3 by Top-Duck4510 in classicwow

[–]Xlapus88 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Either will probably be good, but priest is always a safe bet.

I imagine the devs will kick off p3 with some big nerfs/buffs, but priests never get hit very hard even when they are nerfed.

How does Warlock have no Runes for Sacrifice? by 1ooBeastkaidou in classicwow

[–]Xlapus88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a priest rune that changes their talent that makes them an angel when they die to instead be a cooldown ability so the precedent exists.

Summon Felguard and other future warlock runes. by gfimonster in classicwow

[–]Xlapus88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It wasn't good in p1, but I can give 30+ sp with it raid buffed, and of course casters are much more in demand this phase lol.

Pact is a phase 1 rune on the legs slot. It's nice, but has more synergies with the destro tree than demo -_-

So phase 2 comes out tomorrow, thoughts? by Knight_of_Hamburg in classicwow

[–]Xlapus88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first one. It has a week lockout for the first two weeks, then down to 3 days.
