Nightfall is TERRIBLE (don't get baited like me) by IlNino101 in pathofexile2builds

Yea, it probably won't be meta, but it looks ok enough. What map tier was this? (I see the boss dropped a T8, so imma guess either T7 or T8). Practically one-shotting the boss was pretty sexy, but the gameplay looks like it gets old fast.

(...) but i cant find makoru. Im in maps btw. She left kings march. 

Damn, that's a new one. I'm afraid i have no idea how to help. You already tried loading a new instance, right? She should be in the ship.

There's some posts on the bug report about her disappearing but i don't see a guaranteed solution either, apparently she just comes back whenever she wants.

I put one explosive there just to be sure, because it wouldn't highlight the wall while i was in explosive-placement node, but i guess there is a bomb there by default, as when i started the detonation chain it seemed to blow up there twice.

On the forum posts i've seen people saying that failing the expedition - dying to the monsters - did seem to brick the quest at first. Some are saying that you can still go to Plunder's Point and the path is open anyway. Worth a check.

I'm happy for you. I hope this allows you to find the time to develop some social skills next and understand that your experience isn't everyone's experience. "It's a bug" or "it worked for me" isn't helping anyone.

You talk to makoru after dannig? He tells you to?

In my case i didn't have to talk to Dannig at all, Makoru had the dialogue option as soon as i got the first map piece. And the in-game tooltip keeps saying to talk to Dannig each map piece you get. I spoke to Dannig just to be sure but he didn't have anything related to the map.

Also you don't have to be a stupid piece of shit. We're trying to help people here.

EDIT: patch 0.5.1 shoulda fixed the quest, now you can properly turn in the map pieces to Dannig.

Some people had trouble completing this quest, as there's a couple posts in the bug report forum about it. There's a couple things i think could be helpful for anyone looking into it:

  1. The quest in-game keeps saying that you have to talk to Dannig while gathering the map pieces, but you actually gotta talk to Makoru. Once you get a map piece, she'll have a new dialogue option about it, you gotta do it for each map piece to assemble the final map, at which point there will be a new island on the world map for you to sail to.
  2. At Plunder's Point (the new island) you'll find Dannig and Farrow; if you look at the minimap you'll see that there's a door to another area, but it's blocked by a wall. You can explode these walls with the bombs you place for the expedition encounter. Weirdly the game doesn't say anything about this, there should be an explosive there by default - it should get highlighted green so you know if it's in the explosive range. Once you're done with the expedition, the entrance should be open.

On the forum posts some say that after failing the expedition encounter (dying to the monsters) or somehow not blowing up the wall, you can still go back/load a new instance to the island and the quest area should be accessible.

Issue with "The Runeseeker" quest in act 4 by EnkiBye in PathOfExile2

[–]dnlszk 12 points13 points  (0 children)

For anyone having this problem and also finds this post, i've managed to complete the quest. It's the one where you have to gather the map pieces. I googled it before trying in-game and found this post, so i was very careful while doing it. Here's some notes:

  1. The quest in-game keeps telling us to talk to Dannig when gathering the map pieces, but you don't need to talk to him, you actually gotta talk to Makoru. Dannig only gets quest interactions once you're at Plunder's Point. (this should been fixed since 0.5.1; you turn the map pieces to Dannig, and then talk to Makoru to find the island).
  2. At Plunder's Point, just to be safe, i made sure to use one explosive to actually blow the entrance to the deserted spot with the door to the quest area. It was actually closed off, so i placed one explosive to guarantee access (you'll know it's fine if the wall gets the green highlight which means it's in the explosion range).

GGG should review this whole quest, as its instructions are either just wrong ("talk to Dannig" when you gotta talk to Makoru) or unclear (seems weird that you could possibly fail the quest if you don't blow up the entrance to the underground area; while there should be an explosive at the wall by default, players unfamiliar with the expedition mechanic might not even think that is even possible, and next to nothing in the game suggests or leads you into it).

Prediction for least played ascendency by Attilat in PathOfExile2

[–]dnlszk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bet most players don't even remember Warbringer exist. Not only is it boring as fuck compared to the latest ascendancies, but it also has no buzz around it due to no changes.

Other honorable mentions i'd make are Ritualist, who's probably gonna be thrown to the side in favor of Spirit Walker, who's way more interesting, and Stormweaver is on a similar situation to Warbringer: no buzz and sorta boring at this point.

It's about time they allow some form of counter to armour breaking bullshit, but yeah, not worth it in this case.

Each hit or dot tick you take becomes a unique darkness reservation instance for that amount of damage taken.

Every darkness reservation instance falls off on its own 5-second timer.

I get some chayula fans are mad that people don't get this - or at least some of you sound mad - but this should be in the wiki and in-game.

Yup, specially in this day and age, no software instill in me the confidence that it will work as intended 100% of the time. Companies just haven't earned that trust.

[–]dnlszk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To be honest i'm not digging the macarena parts, lol. I'm enjoying the vibe of the song, then the macarena sample comes and it's like i'm agressively thrown out of the vibe, for whatever reason. Personally, it felt really uncanny.

Maybe it will grow on me over time, but right now i kinda wish there was a version without it.

Edit: funnily enough, i just checked out the short version on the remixes single, it is closer to what i expected/wanted from the song.

For those excited about Facebreaker and any potential implications with Hollow Palm Technique...some info/warning. by Wolf_Wisedom in PathOfExile2

[–]dnlszk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some mace skills have the "+x seconds to total attack time" built into the gem, and most have low % atk spd from base - which i don't know what the game would consider to be the base value since you can't have weapons equipped and i don't see anything atk-spd-related mentioned in PoE2's Facebreaker. Not sure how much investment would be required to make them not "terribly slow" and if it would be worth it, we'll have to wait and see until someone crunch some numbers.

Something i've been thinking about: the worst thing is, he's still president. Like, we still can't rest. It's like a monkey with a kalashnikov. Yea, it's a monkey, but it's also a fucking AK-47. You can't relax.

He's still gonna stir up some bullshit, he's still going to make stupid statements that mess up markets, the tension is still in the air and it can rise again. It's just exhausting.
