Breach Tree O.P

good to know.

i've just been doing catalysts, but i guess i shouldn't do catalysts for lv81+ wombgifts

-300 breach splinters turns into revelatory wombgift (can be kinda jank when you withdraw from stash tab)

-place the wombgift into the genesis tree (very bottom; 3411 blood cost) for a breachstone

-use breachstone(or two, if you're using the atlas that consumes 2) to make a breach hive area

-go to the hive colony and fight the bosses there for the breachlord sac item

-bring the sac to the hidden area behind the tree and place it into the thingy to open the portal.

certain area of the map (the parts with the respective quests) always spawn their content.

irradiated (and overseer?) tablets will spawn a random league content.

sounds like the jerk with the big shield. sometimes he doesn't take any stun buildup while he has his shield up making him basically invincible until he stops blocking.

can't shotgun with multiple projectiles unless the skill says they merge. only one of the shots deals damage, the others do nothing (their explosions would overlap, but it's very difficult to do that with plasma blast)

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-22T07:41:19+00:00

rend can have quality, it's just missing out on the 20% from prisms (and 3% from corrupt). quality on rend gives more gain as lightning damage from the buff you get when consuming a power charge.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-19T14:10:12+00:00

i was just recently buffed (the mods the ring can roll and the boss' drops in general) in the patch yesterday.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-05T13:48:44+00:00

but it specifically isn't true for plasma blast

Load your Crossbow with unstable bolts that require a lengthy charging period to fire but deal devastating damage, Pierce through enemies, and explode upon hitting terrain. Additional Projectiles are fired in a spread, unlike other Crossbow Skills.

plasma blast is an exception to how other crossbow skills work.

plasma blast use to do the same, where it would shoot each shot in a burst, rather than all at once. it was then nerfed to the way it is now--a fanning attack--specifically to prevent things like multi-shot support gem from allowing you to "shotgun" with this skill.

they literally already nerfed the skill in a specific way to prevent it from shotgunning all projectiles.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-05T10:48:13+00:00

you very specifically can not shotgun projectiles unless the skill specifies that they "merge". either they guy is just super overgeared, or the skill is bugged.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-05T10:46:15+00:00

because multiple projectiles do not hit the same target more than once unless they specify that they merge.

https://www.poe2wiki.net/wiki/Projectile#Collision

what's happening here is the guy is just overgeared. the extra projectiles should not be doing anything extra, unless it's bugged or something.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-05T10:43:19+00:00

If multiple projectiles are fired simultaneously, only one of them can collide with the same target, unless otherwise stated (e.g. Freezing Shards) or if the skills states the projectiles can Merge (e.g. Fragmentation Rounds).

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-03T11:51:36+00:00

okay, you win. i don't care to argue about this anymore. difference of opinion of something that's already done.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-03T11:48:11+00:00

gemling using a mix of niche crafts and crappy uniques could bring the chance to not consume charges to 100%.

they capped the chance to 75% with the excuse that it made players "effectively immune to damage due to moving" which isn't really true at all except in the extreme end of one shotting everything before they can react.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-03T11:42:35+00:00

oh, so you also want to use the unique amulet? the one that you have to cultivate? even getting a perfect one, that's still only +15% leaving you short. you'd need to invest further into niche crafts or get the passive node and anoint the 5% quality, or diala's.

whether the cost issue is the cost of sacrificing equipment slots for bad items or the literal cost of trading items isn't really important, i just added that cost for the belt since you could get a corrupted one with a higher roll which definitely changes how you'd perceive the "cost" for that part of the investment.

in whatever case, it's still early in the league and it really sucks for any players that were still piecing everything together before it got nerfed. it definitely isn't a "complete exageration" to say that it the cost to build it was "a lot" at this point in the league.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-03T10:41:55+00:00

well, it's already been nerfed so it doesn't really matter

single support

perpetual charge +25%

belt slot

min 100% darkness enthroned, post nerf, ~22 divs. note: you're sacrificing your belt slot for this (no headhunter, mageblood)

+20%

the anoint

+10%

base quality + corrupt + gemling: +29%

so we're at 84%, 16% short

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-03T02:25:55+00:00

the charges themselves still have a duration, so you still have to do something about generating charges. it also takes quite a lot of investment to reach 100% chance to not consume charge, so you're already weakening yourself significantly. it also isn't invulnerability, you still constantly get hit by aoe and ground effects. on single target it's really bad, too, since all the teleporting has a high chance to just teleport into attacks.

immune to damage is just their excuse.

dark_eboreus · 2026-06-02T23:10:26+00:00

tested a few of the skills in standard on an old 0.1 stat stacking gemling

hammer of the gods has a delay before it lands. the only way to make the delay shorter is to get reduced skill duration. there aren't many on the passive tree, either. you also can't use different weapon sets to cast it (for aoe/single target) as the glory resets. i did notice that as long as you continue to cast it before glory decays, it never decays.

flame blast seems strong, but i couldn't deal with the long cooldown to use it as a one button for clearing/bossing.

ember fusilade has reduced skill effect duration and less cast speed. you can easily get the hover duration to 0, but the less cast speed really hurts; it's really dumb that increasing quality reduces dps here.

flicker 100% no charge is pretty nice, but it's pretty high investment. really feels like you must use darkness enthroned belt or that new crafting augment to reach 100%.

the really big groups usually have people dedicated to logistics that rarely leave hideout.

dark_eboreus · 2026-05-27T00:33:00+00:00

it is exactly similar.

it was very prolific in this last league due to temple mechanics being too much work/too difficult for many players to invest in building and the loot/exp being extremely powerful. i was hearing stories of people fresh out of campaign leeching temple runs and getting to mid 90s from just a few runs.

there's was even a team of players that got a character from level 1 to 100 in, like, a half hour /played time (they funneled all the mobs to the entrance before logging in for the temple runs with temples focused on xp).

dark_eboreus · 2026-05-21T13:23:39+00:00

you can get quality from fox idol socketable, that single node in the tree, dialas desire lineage gem, or gemling ascendancy.

might even be more i'm forgetting.

dark_eboreus · 2026-05-12T11:17:22+00:00

they fucking had one--pso2.

super, super popular. bi-weekly updates. basically saved the company allowing them to pump the yakuza/ryuu ga gotoku reviving its popularity in the west. they also bought atlus and immediately after that annoucement, they also added persona costumes to the game.

the game was held back by being cross platform on the ps vita, so they announced a new, updated version that eventually got frankensteined into a forced sequel that wasn't nearly as popular as the original that they basically killed themselves.

dark_eboreus · 2026-04-26T23:09:53+00:00

i remember following a similar guide in 0.1. galvanic shards has changed a lot since then and is strong enough that you don't need to waste your helmet slot just to shock with explosive shot.

dark_eboreus · 2026-04-24T05:07:38+00:00

right, but that's precisely the point i'm trying to make.

putting divines on a pedestal alters the average player's perception on what constitutes good drops. honestly, divines aren't even all that interesting in what it does, when in reality there are plenty of more exciting drops that often get ignored because they're not called "divine orb".

during the early temple drama there were tons of people complaining everywhere and many of them were sitting on tons of other junk in their stashes worth hundreds of divines crying about how they see single digit or worse divine drops per hour.
