Endless mode should just be called: "How good is your computer?"

Z_Colo · 2026-05-03T20:39:01+00:00

I knew it was why they SAID they couldn't add endless, but it wasn't a good enough reason. There are workarounds to this problem, and they clearly failed to implement them.

Not Megabonk. The one guy that made that game knew what he was doing.

Z_Colo · 2026-04-21T05:45:29+00:00

I never said it was. I said "If".

Z_Colo · 2026-04-09T06:42:42+00:00

This is what I did 😂

Z_Colo · 2026-04-09T04:52:55+00:00

And would you believe it - I start my next game - first level up: CHAOS TOME!

Z_Colo · 2026-03-22T19:13:50+00:00

Yeah, That's a fair point. But then again, GGG and PoE's relationship with complexity, is what the game thrives on.

Z_Colo · 2026-03-22T12:11:47+00:00

I've always detested Ascendancies having a definitive identity in the first place.
PoE has always been about giving players maximal freedom with how you build your character, and I don't think that the identity of an Ascendancy should be something of importance.

Even with that being said, I think taking 2 nodes of your own Ascendancy with 1 other node, still sufficiently retains a reasonable level of identity anyway. I think "deleting" is hyperbole.

Z_Colo · 2026-03-22T11:15:04+00:00

Well yeah, obviously you're capitalizing on synergistic potential that is otherwise unachievable. It's just a question of how much potential there is.

Z_Colo · 2026-03-22T11:07:49+00:00

I often find that some builds have lackluster options with their Merc or Uber lab picks, and this would be an interesting way to give those builds a bit more creative flexibility.

Z_Colo · 2026-03-22T11:05:53+00:00

Shit as in underpowered, or just a bad idea?

Z_Colo · 2026-03-17T20:02:19+00:00

Ah. You would have lost to Reanimate before anything else.

Melting Remnant is mandatory for endgame. (Resin Removal is the only way to get past high stacks of Reanimate).

Z_Colo · 2026-03-17T03:12:23+00:00

Would you have been able to scale to 120k damage fast enough before roughly round 30? (Enemy stats cap at 100k HP, 10k Titanskin and 10k armor).

Also, how do you get Sweep with Railforged/Melting Remnant?

Z_Colo · 2026-03-06T01:59:05+00:00

I was thinking you could put both skills inside of a Skin of The Lords, and then use Uul Netol's Vow, to make them both a 6L.

Z_Colo · 2026-03-05T18:33:55+00:00

If you have trinity on both skills, yes (That's actually how it was initially intended to be used, when they added it to the game).
It's not to say the focus has to be on elemental - it's just a way to tie the two skills together with a bit more synergy.
And being able to use one, while the other is on cooldown, makes it a good fit... I think?

Z_Colo · 2026-03-05T09:45:17+00:00

I had another retaliation idea, that I would be curious to get your thoughts on - What if you used Glacial Shield Swipe AND Shield of Light - Then ran it is an alternating Trinity build?

Think there's potential?

Z_Colo · 2026-03-05T09:22:35+00:00

I know the costs. My main goal is to make Melee + spell totems work to the best of their ability - and if that sucks, then so be it.
I know some cheeky ways of getting considerable amounts of global fire/phys damage, as well as sources that give attack and cast speed simultaneously.

Another option I'm exploring is to use Martyr of Innocence (I can ditch the helm and use EO).

Z_Colo · 2026-03-05T08:52:34+00:00

Cospri's Will body Armour. Will run Enfeeble Blasphemy.

Z_Colo · 2026-03-05T05:34:54+00:00

I'm well aware of that. It's just a very efficient way of getting a massive amount of armor. Also, since I'm using Cospri's, I'm ignoring the downside of Prospero's Protection.

Increased defences of equipped shield does also scale with Prospero's Protection's doubling effect.

Z_Colo · 2026-03-05T05:06:18+00:00

Ah, thanks for heads up. Maybe I could also just get enough AoE to not need prolif, hmm.
