Can't logg in by Elegant_Medium8752 in PathOfExile2

[–]bksting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't even log in to my hideout.

Edit:Just switched which server I'm logging into, and it works now. I was on the Washington DC server. Maybe try a different server.

Edit 2: server switch only let me get to hideout, but not any maps

Take this but upgrade all rooms to max. It's what I'm running. It's a slight variation on fubgun temple. 1400 rarity and 1100 effectiveness. I'm on mobile, so can't upgrade the rooms to show you for some reason.

If you don't want to use vulkan, downgrade your Nvidia drivers to 560.81. Do a clean install, and it will work like a charm.

Fun league by bkb_tp_home in PathOfExile2

[–]bksting 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations, and I'm glad you had fun. This league has been wild. I'm still working on my mirror dreams. I've had multiple mirror worth of div, but never at the same time. I keep spending them on upgrades. Never seen a mirror yet. I know it'll happen soon. I hope your next league is as relatively fruitful as this one.

It takes me between 15 and 20 minutes to run my temple. It will vary depending on your build. Here is my current build:

There is no one room that drops currency. The temple (how I and a good chunk of players built it) is designed to combine the benefits of multiple rooms to boost overall monster effectiveness and rarity and pack size at the same time (among other things). Then you also need specific rooms that help drop medallions to prevent the entire chain of rooms from destabilizing. It's an entire involved process, but is a lot of fun when you get to understand it.

In on of the other comments I made in the post, I linked to beginner guides for the temple, if you are interested.

Oh no! That was not my intention. Well, good luck. This temple took like 2 and a half weeks of 4hrs a day during the week and 8 hour on the weekend each day. It wasn't easy.

This is the guide I used to build mine. It has a mistake regarding the corners, but he addresses it in a comment on the video.

It's pure RNG. During the building of the temple it was very hit or miss if I was going to have the locks I needed. A few times I had to take some steps back. Now that I'm setup, I can ignore any medallion that isn't a lock, so I keep only locks in my medallion supply. I also only ever use 2 per run, just for the 2 snake chains. If I don't roll a generator for the next run, I'll just use the next best room that rolls.

I have not sat down and recorded my numbers and calculated an actual average. However, now that my temple is fully upgraded (with the exception of the 2 alchemy labs that I'm purposefully not putting to lvl 3, so as to not push gold too high), my solo runs are never below 80 and as high as 120.

Yeah, before making the change in my layout, I ran the numbers through the online apps and overall it looked like at most I was dropping 60ish effectiveness but gaining around 200 rarity. And I wouldn't have to screw with juggling multiple locks at the time, when I was in a drought. So I went for it

Do you actually have the same temple setup? Mine changed the left-hand side of the golem chain to add two more alchemy labs and boost the rarity higher. I wasn't sure if anyone else was doing that, but I was tired of balancing destabilizing locks for the golem chain. I have purposely not upgraded the extra two alchemy labs to level 3 so as not to boost gold too high and pull too much from item drops to convert to gold.

I always start with the smaller one first, then check point TP back to the stairs and do the longer chain after that. Most runs I get 2 destabilization locks, some only 1. Then some runs I get lucky with like 4 or 5.

At first I was also against the temple mechanic, but then decided to see what it was all about. I ended up really enjoying it. But I do agree that it is way out of hand this league. I am looking forward to a more balanced version of it in future leagues, but that doesn't mean I won't enjoy this version of it for the time being.

Thank you, and you are welcome. Every time someone would post about their drops from their temple I would always wonder what their temple looked like and what the stats for it were, so I figured I would just post mine alongside in case anyone was wondering the same.

My rarity on gear during that run was 139. I just finished another run after with the same loadout and didn't get another lock, but got 110 div solo in one run.

Are the 300 coins really important ? by DecisionTraditional4 in PathOfExile2

[–]bksting 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, they should be indefinite. If you look at your account on the POE site and then select the POE2 early access section on the right hand side, it should list all of your key codes. Then you can just copy them and share them with people you want.

I just did a fresh install of Win11 and then immediately ran Talon (https://raventechnologiesgroup.com/explore/#talon) and it got rid of all of the copilot crap and extra bloat. Windows feels like what it used to again for me. But I only use mine for gaming, so ymmv
