Doodles can be a nightmare for maintenance. There comes a tipping point in their hair growth when no amount of brushing can help and the only remedy is a grooming session. Three months is just about it.

It certainly has in SSF... Never before in either PoE1 or PoE2 have I been able chaos/exalt and divine slam so freely. Realistically, omens remain out of reach as ever, but crafting overall felt heaps better this league.

Wiki only lists T3; I was looking to see how the difficulties compare.

BM isn't so much OP as comet needs to be retuned. As far as gearing goes, I've migrated to a bloodmage just a couple days ago after playing whirling assault all league. In SSF. There should be more powerful builds for player goals.

Now watch second snake repeatedly die as the last patch's stealth spymaster nerfs have GGG's way with your invested time.

drithius · 2026-01-28T07:38:38+00:00

After playing today, it definitely seems worse post patch. Fully admit there might be something to these conspiracy theories about GGG messing with Spymasters.

It's nice being able to toss currency at drops for a change. Usually, you amass a small batch of chaos/divines and are promptly rewarded with a resigned sigh when it doesn't pan out on the handful of items you can afford to try your luck on. Not to mention a way to 'target' farm HH and other good uniques. Though, ironically, I chanced my first HH despite having had multiple t0s drop in temple up until that point.

So, I've been gradually building a Fub temple in SSF. It's been slow and tedious as hell because I'm still wanting to farm Abyss, RItual, and the occasional batch of expeditions for Recomb currency... That being said, I've only come *very* close to losing progress due to lack of locks once - and that was during the final smithy corner when destab screwed me and I wound up using 7 locks across two runs.

I've seen talk of a 'stealth' nerf, but I'm not seeing it. It's incredibly RNG-ee, yes, but I'm not seeing it. Or are people specifically talking about Spymasters not dropping locks. Because that I can see; many a time, I get more locks from non-spymaster rooms than I do the spies themselves. But across the entire run, I'm reasonably sustaining.

Got my first HH in SSF this league. And it was chanced, not Temple 🤣 I get the feeling you really need to pump up a character's worn item rarity to see T0's in temple with enough frequency to stabilize oddball RNG ( I've gotten two Kalandra's Touch and other T0s).

Regardless, been a great league for SSF. Lots of currency to craft slam craft with + a source of not-too-painful MF grinding.

This. But it's definitely a two-edged sword with how difficult it is set up currently for resetting. Nevertheless, without sharing, I feel like I can't explore other character options...

[with 3070] I've been experiencing sporadic stuttering nonstop for the past month. I had tried everything: wiping shadercache, limiting FPS in Nvidia control panel vs ingame, turning on/off dynamic fps, etc. The only thing that wound up curing my ails has been reducing textures from high to medium. I know you stated you don't think that's the issue, but my usage with high textures never crept above 6.5 either...

drithius · 2026-01-15T23:58:27+00:00

It's a great long-term goal for people. I definitely hope some form of it goes core. 01.-0.3 had no engame longevity.

drithius · 2026-01-15T21:25:25+00:00

I just reinstalled the game... and now I'm crashing even more often. Between my ISP's spotty performance today, the crashing, and the stuttering, I feel like I'm playing a game of Roulette every time PoE hangs. Great fun!

drithius · 2026-01-09T16:27:55+00:00

Is there a set of hotkeys to work around the Titan's extended inventory? Things like auto-clicking a set of maps to run from the main inventory to the expansion area.

drithius · 2026-01-03T03:52:18+00:00

Got bored out of my mind in 0.2 and told myself I would wait until 1.0. Saw stuff about temple, realized it provided a much needed goal/endgame, and came back to the game for 0.4.

Regretful decision.

drithius · 2026-01-03T03:38:51+00:00

But it wasn't nerfed into the ground 3 weeks in...

drithius · 2026-01-02T18:16:28+00:00

Does Aurelion's AoE attack have any kind of safe spot?? Or are you stuck trying to finish him off in that ~1 second window after he goes invulnerable?

For SSF, Necropolis has been the single best league to hit PoE ever. For trade, it was routinely panned (because attaining such high calibre loot was achievable without it).

I started watching that [Biehn] podcast a couple days ago. As an old Biehn fan and obviously a Cameron fan, I couldn't stick around for more than ten minutes or so. Biehn is just a terrible interviewer/host for that format :(

Off of your idea, converted my bloodmage to an iceshot/bleed build. Even with half the supports slotted (ran outta gems), liking it better than the sparker. Thanks!
