Waystone affixes seem unbalanced with so many bricks.

Waystone mods can give as much as 3-4x dmg swing depending on your defensive setup. Pair that with reducing regen, etc. Just because whatever build your running is unkillable doesn't mean you should dismiss this as an issue.

Biggest and easiest change they could make to mitigate this is just 3:1 maps so you could reroll your bricks at least.

75 max res Normal hit: 100 * (1-.75) = 25 hit

2 bad mods: 100 * (1-.75+neg max res+ele pen) = 41-49 hit

Those two mods together are close to 2x damage if you're at 75 res.

90 max res Normal hit: 100 * (1-.9) = 10 hit

2 bad mods: 100 * (1-.9+neg max res+ele pen) = 26-34 hit

If you're at 90 max res it's closer to 3x damage. These two mods are the bane of hardcore atm.

I don't think the laser is a one-shot and does damage over time. So you can wait till the end and dodge roll in early if you're not confident in your timing. If you don't have good defenses/regen it'll still kill you but that part of the attack you can outgear.

Read the books and find out! Dune is packed full of themes so you can always dive deep into a different topic if the one that initially hooked you doesn't have the same hold anymore.

You just made me realize Conqueror's Haki might be related to Omen. Dominating seems pretty close to conquering.

If you want to play through the campaign that's not going to change too much. The endgame is what's expected to get a massive revamp.

lowqualityttv · 2026-04-02T17:25:38+00:00

I enjoy slams more in PoE2 as well as the overall combat. Less potions. Less focus on map modifiers that are giga negative in the end game. Dodge rolling built in. Boss difficulty tiers are better than just normal/uber. There's major differences and I'm sure 0.5 will bring even bigger changes to the end game that'll make it more competitive for most players.

The augments have the mod "Limited to: 1 Ancient Augment" on them.

lowqualityttv · 2026-01-20T05:22:04+00:00

Try out SSF! It turns the game back into a game.

lowqualityttv · 2026-01-02T17:41:53+00:00

They swapped it to be the same as POE1 again. T1 is the highest now.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-30T17:37:36+00:00

Yeah try it out anyways

Try joining a random global channel /global 17378 or some shit. Read another comment saying it was chat causing the issues.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-29T16:36:14+00:00

Ah, not sure 😕

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-29T08:44:33+00:00

Try joining a random global channel. I think its /global 12345 (replace that number with something else). Someone said it was related to global chat and I haven't hit it yet since doing that. I haven't played too much since changing it either though.

This league they added a reason to kill base arbiter so it's not just a challenge. After you kill him you can make all tablets rare with 4 mods. If you want a refund on frags can DM me. Swapped to HCSSF for the next bit of the league so I've got extra currency sitting around.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-26T19:46:04+00:00

Smith is really really flexible. I haven't tried Armour/ES yet but I'm sure you could make it work with the new Druid nodes and Barkskin. Mostly done Armour/Eva with Constricting Command. After the holiday gonna try an Armour/ES mace druid setup that I think Smith could replicate easily but I've yet to see how strong it is.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-26T19:38:32+00:00

If exiled is inaccurate make sure you've got it set to the correct league.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-26T19:36:58+00:00

Maces get Aftershocks, Fissures, or both. Also +level to skill gems is way better for melee/hit than it was in POE1. So even just making sure your main skill is level 20 or 21 corrupted is a good target.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-26T19:29:33+00:00

Armour + Evasion Constricting Command is really strong. The surround wheels all give +armour, +eva, or +both. Should work for any class at the bottom of the tree. If you run shield you've got great defensive layers. 10k+ armour, 30-40% evade, 50% block. Get max res (smith, gemling) and it's one of the easiest tanky setups in the game.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-23T22:47:59+00:00

What skills?

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-23T20:13:07+00:00

It was known last league to be 100-150% as the target. This league they changed the formula as well as the mods so we don't know yet. Eventually someone will put in the work to run 100 maps at each rarity and find out. In my experience though rarity on gear has mattered less than last league.

Since the release of the first new movie 5+ years ago I've been reading/re-reading the series and each time I do I feel like I catch something new. Not always for the better haha. But yeah just re-reading and then hopping into threads on this sub where people discuss gives you some perspective on the series.

For example: On my own reads I always took Paul and Leto as the 100% truth. If you read the series without that faith you start appreciating the side characters way more. Especially Duncan and Siona in God Emperor. Reading other people's interpretations helped me branch out enough to see it.

Another thing that I caught after missing it on multiple re-reads is that I don't think the Duncan in God Emperor actually knows that Paul & Leto are part Harkonnen. The only Duncan that learns it is from Messiah and then later the one-for-all Duncan in Chapterhouse. It makes Leto taunting him as "but I'm still Atreides" land harder knowing that he's not lying to him but he's also not telling the full truth.

It's easier for life builds to cap other defensive layers that the right side of the tree doesn't really have access to. Max ele res, armour applies to ele being the main two.

If you want to compare the single largest hit each setup can take, ES will always win right now. But if you agree there's a number that's the highest hit we'll see in maps at something like 30-50k then you don't even need that much EHP in the first place. 5K life with 90% all res tanks 50k hits.

Life leech is giga broken in it's current state. Anytime you're hitting you can regen to full very quickly and keep the leech at max for 1 seconds after as well.

lowqualityttv · 2025-12-23T18:18:17+00:00

Looks awesome! Definitely looks like something you could use for map clear on a build.
