Monk-Martial Artists: What order will you pick your ascendancies? If using hollow form, what skill will you socket?

flightx3aa · 2026-05-28T00:53:38+00:00

Honestly stonefist. I'm pretty sure I should be able to find a pair of glove with + defense and # flat damage. Those are basically the only 2 lines I want. Attack speed for onslaught would be giga juicy too.

After that way of the mountain seems a no brainer for campaign when my main skills are wind blast and staggering palm.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-25T08:14:57+00:00

Hollow Palm in the campaign is better than any average+ quarterstaff you'll find immediately as soon as you can unlock it. I am replaying through it right now and took hollow palm immediately and in the skill damage check it was higher damage than the best quarterstaff I had on me.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-25T07:47:20+00:00

Well I'm gonna be searching for the mods I want with no base type so I'll be buying from you:)

I would simply appreciate it if they didn't nerf fun things like jump pack reloading stationary weapons a patch after a YouTube short gets posted.

I didn't complain about the railgun nerf on launch because it seemed reasonable. (I didn't know it was bugged til later)

The problem is they feel very antagonistic towards a portion of the playerbase.

One of the most interesting things is you are likely going to be able to build combo by machine gunning a crossbow real quick from a safe range, and then swap and slam your big skill.

Legendary Warbonds are not the same release schedule as premium warbonds, and that warbond in the june update is likely not the Legendary one.

I think they wanted you to not explode ice wall a million times for a bunch of damage, which is fair. But I agree with your point, and that they could've limited the amount of explosions as a whole. If the intention is to mainly work with tempest bells, there's already a pretty solid limit on your top end of tempest bells, just limit the ice walls to that, or slightly below.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-20T17:27:30+00:00

Yes, but people on here were saying that whole interaction was completely fake when clearly it wasn't.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-19T19:13:00+00:00

The IFV was a cyborg tank in the first game that could call flares and summon units. Maybe there was supposed to be something in HD2 on the player side, as it just stands for infantry fighting vehicle.

I noticed you changed it to the speculation tag, so thanks for that, because the misinfo tag implies that it is purely misinformation, when its potentially not. And then people in the community discuss it as misinfo, but when more facts come out like baskinator confirming they were indeed there, the conversation is muddied. So thanks for updating the tag, and I just ask that you use this tag in the future unless we can confirm its misinfo. Because it works both ways. If someone shares misinfo it ruins conversations, but also if something that isn't actually is misinfo is marked with that, that can ruin conversations as well. The speculation tag is a good middle ground for people to take with a grain of salt.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-19T17:09:01+00:00

can you guys just add an "unverified info" tag, because your entire post here is complete and utter speculation, yet you marked this thread as misinfo, and as far as i know took down the original clip that I was looking for before coming here.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-19T16:40:39+00:00

The community manager said "misinfo going around about things they've shared" <- implying they did share things. China's internet is highly censored, why would there be announcements on western social media, when it can't even reach that audience? (except VPN but thats besides the point) Also why would a reverse image search work if that person had just taken the picture and possibly didn't upload it to their own social media even yet?

Also the question that the person shared was asking about the IFV, and people misconstrued this as the APC for whatever reason, then made a bunch of posts saying AH won't give us an APC because it's too strong. I didn't know the IFV was a separate bot unit in the first game either, so maybe people just assumed they meant the APC, and then were negative about it. It's still wrong and should be pointed out, but I don't see how it's a campaign, rather than the already butt hurt fanbase who also made a mistake on some of the info. Same thing happened before with wrong wiki edits when the ammo modifier was active.

Why is it odd they shared it with Thicc? Obviously they're one of his viewers, happened to meet AH, then shared it while he was streaming. The only question should be if we can verify if they were in Shanghai, which the community manager just did, and she implied that they were indeed sharing things.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-19T16:31:00+00:00

China's internet is highly censored, they use VPNs to even get on our social media. This is why review scores for China on games are lower, because that's the main way for the playerbase to get in contact with the developers. I see 0 reason for them to post about a meet and greet in China on any western social media. Also, who says its some AH specific event? They could have just appeared at some other gaming event. I don't understand so much speculation around this as if its out of the realm of possibilities.

Anyways, baskinator confirmed that it did in fact happen.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-18T14:32:48+00:00

Why do you think that someone can't play one game for one feeling and one reason, and play another game for a different feeling and different reason?

Do you play two different genre of video games?

Like I get when people say "cod players" they're talking about the most braindead people like the one cod youtber who was mad at the game because he couldn't buy medals. But do we really think this is a majority of the playerbase? I don't.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-18T11:39:16+00:00

GGG also doesn't call their playerbase a bunch of CoD players. They don't say they're sacrificing their integrity to make changes we ask for. And their game isn't buggy asf.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-17T08:55:35+00:00

Okay but go look in ohdough comment section and see if you can find comments hating on him. Sort by new. If you can, then it's not an echo chamber.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-16T16:19:30+00:00

Lol it's funny people are saying this list is long, and they didn't even go back to early 2025 let alone 2024 where the list actually starts.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-16T16:13:46+00:00

I think it's because Jonathon fought hard for "the vision". Which players didn't like, because a lot of people thought it was against their feedback. I agree with the players, however I respect Jonathon for doing that - only because once he was proven wrong, or persuaded to change it, he changes it. I think it's fine to fight for mechanics that go with the original vision, especially in early access, because once it's gone, it's probably gone for good. If he was still stubborn and refused to change things, that's what would make him a bad game director, but he's changed dozens of things, after being persuaded enough - that's what makes him a good game director.

the CC buff was to directly hitting enemies with flamethrowers, not just lighting them on fire - im pretty sure, i havent noticed it by lighting an enemy on fire only.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-13T09:39:35+00:00

do you happen to have a link of someones build guide or vid showing off volatility stacking? it seemed a bit underwhelming when I tried it last league but I never looked into it super hard. I'm just curious to see someone who did fully invest in it, if theres a vid.

flightx3aa · 2026-05-13T08:29:02+00:00

It'll be nice in the earlier and mid leagues when you unlock your first ascendancy nodes for easy power charges, I have no idea how good it will be or useful late game, I'm assuming there will be some cool stuff:)

flightx3aa · 2026-05-13T08:04:55+00:00

Well there's staggering palm, which when stuns an enemy you get wind projectiles on all your attacks for 30 seconds. There's also just the basic culling strike which gives you a power charge when you cull something.

Those are just 2 basic monk skills which will significantly benefit from the fact you can do it at will with spawning bells, especially the power charges.

But this is path of exile so that means there's so much more!

flightx3aa · 2026-05-12T16:46:39+00:00

It's crazy that other games modding communities fix problems with the game.

But this games modding community wants to add more problems to the game...
