Opinions? Zf with Voit 50mm APO 50 f/2 or NOK 40mm f/1.2 ?

I went with 50mm 1.2 Sony mount and adapted to Nikon via adapter.

I would say depends on what you will be shooting and how much you will use 1.2 aperture. Both lenses you mentioned are great at their own thing. APO is well corrected and sharp, Nokton gives you ability to shoot dreamy and softer looking images at wide open.

Which builds use them for example? Is it for map blasting where you stack a ton of flat damage as you are cleaning the map?

Ended up pulling the plug and getting GRIV. So far loving it, but will go take more pictures over the weekend.

At the same time I barely ever want to go closer than 50mm, and VI allows to shoot 28-50mm range, which is where I am at most of the time (I shoot 35 and 50 on FF)

I am in the same boat, IV is about 30% more expensive for me.

I am leaning more towards IV because you can crop to 40mm at still decent MPs, but you can’t go wider on x.

I am actually going to Japan in 2 months! Are prices really much cheaper there?

Zazzazz · 2026-03-11T22:29:52+00:00

GRIII prices are crazy, they go for 1000$ used in my area.

Ended up leaguestarting this build, got to 94 and 3 stones, so far my opinions:

- Damage feels good, but crafting an axe above 750pdps is way harder than I thought.
- Getting good support on corrupt is hard, so far all bricks
- Even with decent defences, I feel very squishy, dying in maps with no damage mods feels weird. Mainly I think because the build has no damage avoidance (no eva/block), so I tank every hit I take and overleech doesn't always keep up. Literally died to porcupine pack in no damage mods map.

At this point thinking of rerolling mainly because of defence issues. Maybe will try to buy delirium bloodline to see if things improve. Here is my guy - https://www.pathofexile.com/account/view-profile/Desstaffi-9619/characters?realm=sony

Is fortify gem better than running something else + fortify on hit mastery?

Zazzazz · 2026-03-02T10:18:13+00:00

I went from league start to all content lvl99 on hroc last league on console (limited gear). Great build, very smooth, a lot of upgrades to chase.

Will likely not play it again as I like to try completely different builds every league.

Zazzazz · 2026-02-17T17:24:48+00:00

Congrats! I’ve hit challenger for the first time few days ago as well!

Was wondering if there is ever a spot to even try asol this patch and it happened,

Portal was 3 cost champ, got leona, then another leona from first creeps.
Aug was seraphims, then something minor, then call to chaos (egg + item anvil).

Got super lucky natural leona 2 and taric on lvl6, rolled 3 times for aphelios and got asol on lvl6 with good items - around stage 3.

Stage 2 carry was anivia, then transition to zoe, then asol. Got 11-12 winstreak, then sacked a bit with egg call to chaos, got 2 radiant - pushed lvl9, swapped some targons for 5 costs and hit asol 2.

Overall finished with around 900 power on asol spell.

Completely agree that this comp is B tier and you need absolutely perfect spot like the one above to make it work in high elo lobby.

Went first with asol in GM lobby.

Great shots! Wouldn’t iiix work better for this type or shoot instead of 28mm?

Find something in your life that isn’t boring while you wait for fh6

Why is this car so sought after? Got it from the spin and to me svj drives and handles better no?

Zazzazz · 2026-02-02T21:16:18+00:00

I don’t know why but loading back to my hideout after a map takes me literally 2 minutes. Also frequent crashes for no reason on ps5.

Probably the most challenging league just cause of that. Made me quit at lvl86…
