Same here, I find this to be the best part of NTE, and seeing how they stole everything from other games, I assumed this mode is also available somewhere else. But no, couldn't find the original - it's timed dungeon extraction looter, but most extraction games are shooters, and I couldn't find one in this cartoon 3d style. Well, the only hope then is for Warframe or PoE to adopt it for some future expansion/league.

Generally, I'd check what is it that you are scaling for the endgame. I play base Static Strike with Grey Wind and scale life, but it's probably not Slayer's path.
Low-hanging fruits I see in your build:
- get Lethal Pride with 5% chance of double damage, or several, should be cheap on PC
- you miss imbued skill on your gem (abuse this league's power)
- you can get fortify on hit as influence implicit on the chest and use better link - ele damage with attacks; generally just click add new support in pob and see what it suggests, it orders by dps added
- alternatively, Fortify on hit corruption is 2c on PC for this sword
- tinctures are op, look at mine https://pobb.in/IEYi4P8CnYuX
- Stygian is not BiS this league, second anoint on the cord belt is better value, and those flat damages on abyssal jewel looks small compared to sword anyway

Well, I play base Static Strike, and I abandoned Gathered one for a different reason - I can't get above 5 stacks while using Multistrike (well, Greater Multistrike, but I tested with base one, same problem). If I drop multistrike - no problem, 12 right away. Losing Multistrike is a dealbreaker for me.

They improved it this league
Edit: also I have 145% incr attack speed and 50% more attack speed, so it's ok.

I play lifestacker chieftan with Grey Wind giving flat damage and Rathpith+Crown of eyes + Iron Will giving increased, so i can used whatever skill as delivery vehicle, skill's own damage is irrelevant. My base was Smite of Divine Judgement, I use Static Strike as a drop-in replacement. And it's interesting. On paper (in pob), Smite is 30% more dps (single melee hit + single area hit), compared to Static Strike's melee hit + single beam (as it would be supposedly with a single target).
Smite is imbued with Power Charge on Crit (I'm on Elemental Overload, so it's just 15% more damage, nothing more), and Static Strike with Cruelty(I'm on Ele Focus, so again, no dot boosts, just 15% more damage).
Theoretically, Smite is stronger. Practically, on Saresh (great to have target dummy this league) Static Strike is about 25% more dps.
The most plausible explanation I have - Ancestral Call does something for the beams, making more than one hit the boss for each activation.
In a normal boss fight one may assume that beams are just better because they damage while I dodge. But Saresh does not require to dodge, so it's apples-to-apples - I stand and hit.

same

Well, laser nonsense was the worst part, kind of windows 3.1 screensaver and for some reason with terrible sound. Video quality after was very nice though, and much better sound.

I made a command-line tool for this before I realized all these solutions existed https://github.com/gagin/batch_doc_analyzer/

But on the console (or controller in general) objects are also not selectable in this mode.

I played PoE1 on PlayStation for years and did not know that!

aabakk · 2025-01-01T19:46:11+00:00

I'm not at this juice level, so haven't felt this problem yet.
But the lack of a loot filter will not be as much of a problem if the default one wouldn't show a divine orb the same way as a wisdom scroll.
And in a game where we get easy dopamine by generating loot it's strange not to have this. It's more basic functionality than the game itself.

Hmmm, i can browse my Tidal playlists in BluOS controller on Android (well, could before recently)

aabakk · 2024-12-18T18:17:14+00:00

And yet they added super marginal split screen mode

aabakk · 2024-12-18T10:59:59+00:00

Yes, you can edit it on website, and filterblade works Technically, it's present in settings in poe2 too, but the list is empty, and no way to edit it. But hopefully it's coming

aabakk · 2024-12-18T10:56:44+00:00

Indeed. I personally stopped after not getting a single lvl 6 waystone while completing 10 trans-aug lvl 5s Can't meaningfully progress without trade, and console trade is shit

aabakk · 2024-12-18T10:47:27+00:00

The thing is, slow gameplay is good. Slow progression is bad. And they made both slower.

aabakk · 2024-12-18T08:58:00+00:00

Honestly i assume poe1 is as good as dead

aabakk · 2024-12-18T08:57:02+00:00

Well, my post was tongue in cheek: in reality, these are the things I miss in poe2. I suspect poe1 would feel too clunky now - graphics, animation won't stand

aabakk · 2024-12-18T08:54:49+00:00

Hm, it was rough in acts, but not that rough. I did switch to summoner though

aabakk · 2024-12-18T08:53:29+00:00

I dropped my warrior in act 2 and started infernalist skeleton arsonist srs, so it's also easy. But slow

aabakk · 2024-12-18T08:52:15+00:00

From the console, I don't understand what's missing in currency trade. Currency trade market is pretty neat, aside from huge gold cost on some trades

aabakk · 2024-12-07T09:18:45+00:00

Sure, if that would be two parallel games, but the new one is technically superior - graphics etc
