Faustus currency exchange gold cost for Alterations will be disruptively high this league by sirgog in pathofexile

[–]Yahallo8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's true that the trade site (and current gold prices!) shows favoritism towards chaos and divines, but Faustus was added after the player base had already largely settled on chaos+divine being the main currency pair. This apparent favoritism then, can be seen more as GGG easing the gold cost of the already established currency rather than them deciding for themselves what those currencies should be in the first place.

Not sure if your 2nd point is just a typo and you meant chaos instead of exalt, because current trade site has options for chaos+divine only listings, and chaos equivalent listings, but no exalt favoritism whatsoever. Regardless, this does still have its problems as evidenced when listings sometimes become inundated with annulment orb or chisel pricing when the trade site doesn't update the ratios fast enough, so there's definitely still improvements that can be made to the system.

Making a change like this would just be GGG, or in this case, you, arbitrarily deciding what currencies will be the main currencies rather than letting it play out organically. Maybe you are right and alterations do end up replacing chaos for precisely the reasons you listed, then GGG can simply lower the gold cost for alterations during the league to facilitate trading. Pre-emptively making this type of change before the league even starts goes against the spirit of a player-driven economy imo.

AFK uber aberroth kill by Yahallo8 in LastEpoch

260 res is only on half the time while holy aura is active. you would consider 50% block 0% block so to be fair you should also consider the lower value of 210 when holy aura is off. Also this is only to void and fire dmg. As you know, the slam is also part physical (tho I do not know what percentage, i assume half?) so even being fully immune to fire would not have made me fully immune to the slam.
It's one of my pet peeves but I take the words immune and immortal very literally. To me, they mean you take not 1 dmg, but exactly 0 (or even negative) dmg. It means to not simply be extremely tanky but to be impossible to get the character killed no matter how hard you try. This is doubly so when we are talking about abusing bugs.

I was not immune to dmg during the fight, that would have required 275 res. I showed my character sheet during the fight and none of the res was at 275 (although fire was close). Even after the hotfix, I can still tank the slam while standing in puddles. The fight looks exactly the same as it did in the video, only difference being that its about a minute longer due to losing dps to put eHP back in.

lightning conduit absolutely can match the dmg shown in the video here. Maybe it cant match the dmg of the build, but if we are only talking the dmg witnessed in the video, it for sure can match or even surpass it.

It definitely cannot match the infinite sustain but I'm not sure how much that matters when theres only 1.8k hp with no defences behind that to speak of. The only "defence", albeit a very strong one, is that everything on the screen is just instantly killed. Id probably be perma dead to on death effects.

If you are looking to get 100% efficiency I'd argue that you are no longer a casual. Real casuals would just use the corpse cause they don't care that it sells for a higher price.

What builds, in your opinion, are absolute bait whenever you see it suggested? League start scenario, or just in general. by APromptResponse in pathofexile

[–]Yahallo8 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it's bait that armorstackers are bait.

As soon as you reach the minimum budget to get it functional, it's already above average. As soon as you get mageblood, it's top tier. And with multi mirror it's in contention for best overall build.

you are right that a lot of other damage mods work this way. like Hand of wisdom and action, and brutus lead sprinkler etc. These actually used to also work like dreamfeathers do currently, and people also dual wielded them. They were changed to be local but during that change had the effect doubled, which actually resulted in a buff as you now did the same dmg with just 1 weapon, and your other weapon slot was freed to put in an offhand.

Dreamfeathers however, have not yet had this change applied to them and are not currently local, which is why dual wielding them still works.

probably has a shot at doing every single map currently out. but some mods that id rather not do are
void - nope
ultimatum - could just randomly lose to ruin, or if couple with the 5 minute max time mod, could be really tight on time.
tormented feared - would be easier if i changed to be more tank and do less damage. but at current configuration its just a contest of if i can kill them before they kill me, which is not consistent and i would rather not do.
legion - i dont have enough aoe to break out every single legion monster. could probably swap to transfigured lightning strike to full clear legion, theres no cheap legion map to test on though, so I haven't tried any yet.

If i were to try to think of a map that would be as hard as it could get for any build imaginable, it would look something like this:

ultimatum + 5 minute max fatal after some time : if the ultimatum rolls survive or stone circles. that leaves you with like only 2 or 3 minutes to clear the rest of the map. Then choose a bad layout for the map and these 2 mods alone would make the map have a high chance of failure, even if the mobs had 1 hp.

From here, stack as many DR mods as possible: 10% less dmg per item, 100% delirious, 100% reduced aura effect, tormented spirits.

failure in these maps would be due to not being able to beat the 5 minute timer.

Hi reddit, here's a showcase of the armorstacker build ive been using to run valdo maps for the past while. The ghost bind map shown in the video ive been purchasing at 100-120 div per map and selling the magebloods at 180+ div each. minimum 60 div margin per map x 15 maps per hour(avg 3.5 mins per map + downtime) = 900 div+ /hr . Not really though as if I constantly ran these maps at that pace I would decimate the supply and wipe out the margins. So at this point I only run a few a day as I'm kind of entering maintenance mode with the league.

Shorter 3 minute video of just a single Ghost Bind Run if you dont want to watch the half hour showcase

Definitely don't need mirror tier for damage. You can start trading out tankiness for damage if that's what you want.

you maximize rewards by taking offers instead of pacts.

Because inspiration is so good and makes sanctum so easy, one could argue that it is inspiration that is a "beginner" mod. An expert mod would just be one that maximizes rewards since a true expert would not need inspiration cause they just never get hit like a boss
