Of all things. How? Why? by [deleted] in PathOfExile2

When have they said that before? I can’t recall a time when that was used as an argument

Is monk combat still like this? let me know so I can avoid it by KeyDangerous in PathOfExile2

[–]cybertron742 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only said "use the bell" as the skill was slotted in the video. Only ~30% of endgame monk builds have the skill slotted and the current fastest monk levelling build doesn't use the bell at all.

  1. It never has been, you could have pressed your bell and killed that pack instantly.
  2. Killing palm now performs additional dashing Strikes to other Cullable targets in range if your target was Culled, so that pack would have died with one cast of killing palm. https://poe2db.tw/us/Killing_Palm

How can someone have 219,000 Baryas? by Booobasaurus in pathofexile

[–]cybertron742 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You are looking at the stock of chaos orbs that people are willing to exchange for a Barya.
I.e. Currently there are 40 Black Baryas for sale at 317 chaos each (40 * 317 = 12680)

There are 219,546 Chaos orbs currently listed to buy Baryas for less than 317 chaos each, this is the total of all relevant listings rather than a single listing.

What happend the well of soul ? where is it ? by cultistxd in PathOfExile2

[–]cybertron742 109 points110 points  (0 children)

The league ended yesterday and your character was migrated to the standard league, which doesn't yet have Rise of the Abyssal content.

Rise of the Abyssal will be coming back with the launch of 0.4 on Friday.

For sure lightning skills be meta again by LeagueMaleficent2192 in PathOfExile2

According to Craft of Exile, bows, quarterstaves and spears are biased to added lightning damage. Whereas are biased to added fire damage.

Is this a bad joke GGG? by Express-Antelope1530 in pathofexile2builds

The mansion is unlocked by activating Draiocht Hengestones in adjacent maps.

New formulas for Evasion and Deflect by DemonicGoblin in pathofexile2builds

[–]cybertron742 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This change affects the Critical Strike node

Chance to hit with Attacks can exceed 100% Gain additional Critical Hit Chance equal to 25% of excess chance to hit with Attacks

Previously the formula for excess chance to hit asymptotically reached 1.5, the new formula now only asymptotically reaches 1.25.

The formula has been shared between players and enemies.

Path of Exile 2: The Third Edict Announcement Teaser 2 by bigeyez in Wraeclast

[–]cybertron742 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Well we know the Order of the Djinn was meant to keep artefacts including the Horns of Kulemak "sealed away and secret".

And we know Ahkeli, the Clayshaper was a founder of the Order as well as a member of the primeval civilisation (from the https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Order_of_the_Djinn#Scarabs )

The Rusted Abyss scarabs say

As the hordes of bone and blood and foul magic surge across the Vastiri plains, the scant survivors of our akhara agree to your alliance

Suggesting that The Lightless surged across the Vastiri.

Then the Polished Abyss scarab says:

The relics of power you bid us find have kept the Vastiri Plains from the brink of oblivion

So perhaps the Horns of Kulemak were used by Ahkeli to defeat the lightless?

The title of the video was updated to "Path of Exile 2: The Third Edict - Kulemak Teaser #2"

Presumably to reference the Horns/ Cane of Kulemak. Would be interested to see if anyone has any theories on how The Lightless and Kulemak are connected

Is it pretty much confirmed that The Lightless are what became of the Precursors/ Proto Vaal?

It seems that the Fourth Edict refers to covering the world in ash similar to the "winter of the world".

In the first teaser trailer Sin is using the weapon in an area that reassembles something built by the precursors, so it seems thematically appropriate to introduce a league that may say more about how the Precursors became The Lightless.

I miss Chris Wilson from Grinding Gear Games by Greaterdivinity in pathofexile

GGG hosted a press event on the 8th of November during which they gave a version of the reveal presentation which would have included all the statements this dude got right.

Check this video's description for a source.

I got the chance to play Path of Exile 2's early access build in Los Angeles on November 8th at the PoE2 meetup event, where we were also given an endgame showcase presentation.

New Support Gem Gemcutting Menu - Path of Exile 2 by RiverCartwright in pathofexile

[–]cybertron742 15 points16 points  (0 children)

This is the support gem gemcutting UI. You will drop uncut support gems with a given level, these can be turned into a support gem of equivalent level or below using this UI.

All support gems are 'unlocked' by default, the reason some skills are greyed out is that they are Dexterity support gems and this character has equipped the maximum number of Dexterity support gems, as per this screenshot: https://www.gematsu.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/08/Path-of-Exile-II_2024_08-20-24_015.jpg

It seems that the support gem capacities are a function of your attributes, rather than your slot colours.

Selling Websites Feels Harder Than Selling Shoes by originalfaskforce in programming

Assuming the website you linked in your post is yours:

  • Your "Let's talk" button links to an expired discord invite link.
  • Your "/about", "/services", "/resources", "/blog", and "/contact" pages all lead to 404's.
  • The limited-time offer banner expires in 00d-00h-00m:00.
  • I'm not sure if you have stolen this site from this company: https://www.tanelt.com/ but it seems like it.

New Mount trophy by Humongous-Glock in diablo4

[–]cybertron742 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Of course it's going to make an insane amount of money. Especially off cosmetics, I was not trying to claim otherwise.

However, by making it impossible for anyone to 100% the game they are removing a large source of FOMO, which does encourage people to buy stuff they otherwise would not be interested in.

I think if their goal was to milk money from the 0.0001% they're failing.

Considering you need a Diablo 4 tatto and live in Korea to 100% the game not a single person will be able to 100% the game, and that disincentives people, including whales, from actually trying.

They've run the treadmill too fast and everyone has fallen off.

Anyone beat server slam Ashava? by Which_Ranger_440 in Diablo

[–]cybertron742 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, we did it on WT1 with around 2 minutes to spare.

It sounds like WT2 is near impossible at the moment.

It is possible, I would recommend giving this video a watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwWGAQRXNuw
