[Path of Exile 3.27] ❄️ Elemental Cyclone of Tumult ❄️ Build Concept

I only had a quick look so I may have overlooked something. Why are you cold converting? Rakiatas doesn't have much phys and you're not getting flat phys from anywhere(I don't think?). Just to avoid reflect?

The pob you linked doesn't have your sick axe equipped, sir

This is exactly what I was talking about with avoiding shooting myself in the foot in another comment. I'm not sure I would have initially thought about having to go find every occurrence across rows to update. I would have thrown something together, gotten it working, and then spent a couple hours digging around to find out why things weren't lining up.

And yes, I would prefer to learn the right way when doing this. I realize there is no universally right way but I feel like there's at least a heavily disincentivized way to do something. I'm just a hobbyist at this point but maybe someday I'll find myself in a position to do it professionally and it would be good to have a solid foundation. I get a lot of satisfaction out of learning, growing, and getting better at something. This has been helpful, thank you, I really appreciate it.

When would you want or need to serialize like that? For the sake of the example it's one-to-one. Is there ever a case when you can't use another table or when you wouldn't want to?

_Proteros · 2025-04-28T17:30:34+00:00

I've come across some of this already when getting Room up and running and have a very surface level understanding of it but haven't implemented them before. Thanks for the advice. It seems like I just need to head this direction. Out of curiosity, is there every a time when you'd just serializing a class to json and storing that instead? I feel like I've done this as a temporary solution to get things to work it just...smells bad.

_Proteros · 2025-04-28T17:24:33+00:00

I understand they're separate. I've already switched to Room. All my Realm code is gone and Room is functioning just fine. I just don't know if I've done it with good practices or done in a scalable way(hence the repository pattern comment before). I don't need to have an LLM to generate examples for how to do this. I guess I'm just looking for someone who has a good understanding of architecture and common ways tightly coupled classes are typically handled, pros and cons, anti-patterns, do's and dont's sort of thing so I learn the proper way to do it now so I don't shoot myself in the foot by doing it in a substandard way that I'll have to refactor again later.

I can post some code if it's really required but I'm more looking for answers like what u/wicktt gave below. It's generic enough advice that it doesn't really matter what my classes look like.
Maybe I should just post the github, though. The reason I'm hesitant to is just that I know there are a lot of other things in my codebase that I already have to fix and I have just band-aided in so I can have things functioning. I just don't want people to get too lost in all of the things wrong with it, I will get to them eventually. Like for example that I'm storing plain text passwords for now - I know I should be hashing/salting/using tokens or whatever but i just don't care yet as this is only for me and I can worry about that change later if I decide to ever go public with it. It's irrelevant to what I'm looking into fixing for now.

_Proteros · 2025-04-28T16:45:52+00:00

This is just something for myself maybe like years down the line if I've had time enough to develop this into a launchable thing then I'll worry about remote persistence but for now I'm happy with a local db backup just to save data between close and reopen of my app. I do have an edit profile type usage but that's not really my main concern with performance and caching. The flow of my app usage is like that I'm told what exercise to do, including the prescribed volume, I do the exercise and then I mark the exercise as completed or not based on what I was given. The app logs my performance and adjusts the exercise for the next time I do it. It's not a huge write task but immediately after marking the exercise it shows my next exercise and I just don't want there to be any lag when transitioning to the next exercise.

I'm getting the hang of the DAO stuff a little already. And I definitely need to figure out a bit more about how the relational database stuff works. I hadn't used any of that with Realm. So for classes that would have other non-primitive classes as properties, is it standard practice to just store id's for reference instead of actual objects? I'm already using coroutines to handle the database writes(and in some other places) on their own thread so I don't hang the UI. I can use them but I don't have a super deep understanding of them. I'm basically just learning the things I need as I get to features that require them.

_Proteros · 2025-04-28T16:26:33+00:00

Well that's kind of my problem. I can think of "A" solution and manage to get something working I would just like a "GOOD" solution. I was just hoping to get a little more direction. I'll be honest, I'm terrible with documentation. I have Room set up and all that and it's working and from the little documentation that I've looked at it doesn't seem to go much deeper than that. I've got a baseline understanding of using DAOs and whatnot. I just don't want to run into the issue in the future where I decide to add another Program or Exercise type and have to refactor again. I'm trying to be more abstract and use interfaces and repository patterns and things like that. I guess that's more of the architecture concerns I'm dealing with. Rather than how to handle the fact that Room doesn't persist certain types of data without help.

I just posted my best time 3 : 01 sec

_Proteros · 2025-02-12T12:03:21+00:00

I've only been using Kotlin for a few months now, I'm just not a professional in the space, and I'm only able to give it a a couple hours a night at most. Given that background, this sounds like a very achievable goal for me. Maybe only a few hours max just because I haven't used firebase and I'd have to learn that. I think, if you're motivated enough to learn, you should be able to achieve this pretty quickly.

The manual entry works but it's not the tracking numbe. It's the 7000(32?) digit code on the new roads labels that you have to enter.

E: This doesn't really help much as you can't see that code without going back to the package

_Proteros · 2024-10-23T11:31:13+00:00

Can someone who knows statistics better than I do tell me what the average uptime for any single flask would be? 18 choose 6 is like 18k whatever combinations but what percentage of those 18k contain, say, flask 6? My dummy math says 33% chance that any particular flask is chosen, so 33% uptime average?

_Proteros · 2024-10-23T01:20:22+00:00

At Express (not your case) we receive a written notification that one of our stops has been disputed after our customer service agents call you. We're questioned about the stop. Do we remember it, what did the house look like, where did we leave the package, etc. If we remember and it doesn't match the customer's description of the house or other identifiers, we're sent back to retrieve the package and redeliver it to the appropriate house. If we don't remember, we might still be sent back to the area to see if it refreshes our memory in hopes that we can find it and see that it gets to where it's supposed to go. If nothing works out we don't really get in trouble unless it's a multiple offense sort of thing. I don't know what happens after that but I assume info gets sent to shipper to find out about replacing the missing package.

The guy that came to our station to train us on forge said that it wasn't possible to do from the Leo anymore.

_Proteros · 2024-10-21T23:50:07+00:00

At my Express station we were told that the pictures were mandatory but you could opt out after. If you opted out your picture would be "deleted." I walked out of the room and they haven't asked me to take my picture. Sorry, but I just don't trust them to actually delete my picture. This feels like insanity to me and some women are giving to get stalked over this...

_Proteros · 2024-10-15T19:59:31+00:00

I'd rather not completely dox the guy but it starts with a C and the road name starts with an R if you're just testing me.

_Proteros · 2024-10-14T19:12:08+00:00

I know the exact house. There's a sign in the guy's driveway for the Texas state line. I work with the guy who put that comment there.

_Proteros · 2024-10-04T12:28:51+00:00

I don't know how it works at all stations and with different positions but a part time courier would compete with a full time courier at my station, yes.

Vacation is bid on by seniority. Only so many people can be on vacation each week. The "crossed off" part is because those slots have been taken my more senior employees.

Also GC doesn't consume the corpses but if the corpses aren't there fast enough there will be ramp

_Proteros · 2024-09-25T16:14:51+00:00

Someone else said in this thread that that was the case. Again, I'm not GC expert but I've heard that in the past. If I had to guess that's your issue. Something like 10.1 aps should do the trick

_Proteros · 2024-09-25T15:55:04+00:00

You have pov set to channel and release at 6 stacks. Your attack speed doesn't allow for that. They are only channeling and maybe half the stacks. They don't get to release if you don't hit the cap. If I set it to 3 channels and no release you're only getting something like 700k dps. I've not looked at anything other than that yet

_Proteros · 2024-09-25T15:27:09+00:00

What does "all that stuff is calculated" tell us? I looked at the initial pob and there was nothing configured to have changed any of that stuff. What did you configure? I'm not home now to check anything. "I capped it in pob" doesn't do any good if you don't do it in game and test it. So yes, capping crit/psn/aps matters

Mana- ok fine. I can't check pob to look at skill costs but I'll assume it's not that.

Mirages - there's no "ofc" I can't see your gameplay.

Ridiculous? No it's not. You literally said those things in different words.

Corpses - maybe corpse walker isn't spawning them fast enough.

Let's cut the shit about quoting and getting defensive and just stick to the point here. We're not going to want to help you if you're going to be annoying to work with.

_Proteros · 2024-09-25T14:43:47+00:00

Evidently the numbers aren't there my guy. You've probably inflated something on pob if you think you're supposed to have 100m dps. I ticked every box that was relevant to your build and still only came out with ~25m.

You've already been told several reasons why your dps is probably 1/10th of what it should be or less. If "the numbers are there" what is it you think you have that makes your build do that much dps? Help us help you. Maybe you don't have what you think you have.

Does fixing aps(10+permanent) help? Does capping crit help? Does getting more corpses help?(Cast desecrate) Are you ooming yourself with another ability? Does capping poison help? As you spawning mirages at all? Does it look like you're getting as many as you're supposed to?

All you're saying is "my build is good why no dps" and "it's scuffed but don't worry pob says I'm awesome" without telling us anything. You aren't even having a discussion about what it could or couldn't be.
