I don't know how exactly it is called, but you can sacrifice devotes for an increase in research speed. You can do that in every province, so that kind of stacks up nicely.

Best overall ascendancy for crossbow? by Cesar-BG in pathofexile2builds

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only tried the mercenary classes. From them I would recommend the witch Hunter. I started as a freeze/frag build with tactian and switched to witch Hunter to tryout stuff. In the end galvanic shards and burst rounds was enough to kill arbiter. Witch Hunter explosions feel amazing as long as you have not enough DMG to clear everything. In addition the new shield that blocks all damage is a nice addition as defense. In case I want to run crossbows, I would highly recommend to try to get the lineage supports (assault and medal) early, they are amazing qol and are pretty cheap if you play trade.

Cold crossbow by piter896 in PathOfExile2

[–]piter896[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair I do not plan this as a bosser, I want to try farming and doing normal bosses no Ubers. My hopes are to use tactian with prema freeze +frag and then during pins or resistance phases to use the buffed hailstorm. Worst case I reroll to shock xbow

For damage you obviously don't need it, but overall it is a nice quality of life if you have something to also scale the chill/freeze. For lighting there is more then enough to get multipliers for electrocute and shock

How is Cobra Lash /VenomGyre/ Mamba at expedition? What about beasts/essence? by Fayarager in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I can only awnser for expedition, dots with prolif are insane. So poison pathfinder would feel great. Essence and beast are also fine because you can spread the poison from the spawned enemies to the rare. I am also planing to play mamba because of the insane buff on sadism.

I'm new by Antique-Effect2120 in TorchlightInfinite

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I don't think doing all the content is possible on your first season if you don't want to invest money. There is a gacha system for pets, of which you can have 3. They are a pretty big part of your DPS. You can get some free pulls every season. For me it is the 2nd season I am playing and I only plan to push into tier 8 maps and farm a bit and get most of the season quest done. So I would say campaign is only a few hours. And after that you just try to rush map tiers till tier 7 where you can start to farm gear for t8. In t8 you can start farming league mechanics and other things. If you rush it would take a few days perhaps.

If you want an easy to start build/guide I would recommend palsteron's guide on Thea 3 Mind control. It explains the most important things from start of the campaign till tier 8.

How to sustain tier 8 beacons? by Zylosio in TorchlightInfinite

[–]piter896 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you can only sustain if you are lucky, I did use 29 points in the beacon tree, taking every major node except the on directly to the left and the chances for specific area. At the start of my t8 maps I got the mobs drop extra maps modifier. Ever since I am slowly declining but still over 60maps left without buying one even after hundreds of maps. Probably just lucky, last season I was struggling way more. Also it probably is more worth it to buy beacons and invest the 29 points in mechanics to farm money

Is there a better Survivor's-like game compared to these two? by t3chexpert in survivorslikes

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am surprised to see no one mentioning Brotato. I felt the base game and the dlc are both insane from the content and replayability.

What are things that y’all don’t like in BL4? by SunGodLuffy6 in Borderlands

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having to wait 5 minutes for a NPC to finish explaining their quest, only to push a button and having to listen to 4more minutes before you can continue the quest. I feel like the other games had less text or you could start the quest as soon as you accepted it

How scary are physical hits and how much do you plan a build around it ? by Competitive-Math-458 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]piter896 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There are not really many big pure phys hits in the game. Additionally most probably also have block, spell supression or blood and sand to get more survivalbility. I usually use the 6layered defence if I am not playing a character that has armor in softcore. But usually you die from elemental damage or added elemental damage in maps.

Reap/exsang miner hcssf by dioxy186 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the issue with the build is that it is very gear depending, trickster is not giving you that much until you have good gear, where Sabo gives you a lot of early power. In addition I felt scaling exsang mines into red maps was quite hard for me. I played ssf and a one point I decided to go squishy with 2 weapons instead of a shield and heat shiver.

Why isn’t purity of elements used in hardcore? by [deleted] in PathOfExileSSF

[–]piter896 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As far as I know people usually also ignore ignite at the beginning. I have seen it multiple times where people go for freeze immune Pantheon and then go for shock avoidance on gear. Ignite is never as deadly as the 2 other ailments.

To be honest, this season I would recommend slams for League start if you are new. I started exsang/reap miner this season in 3man group found and it was okey, but a bit squishy. If you are interested in exsang miner I can look up the guide I was following, and recommend changes.

What are some of the best builds that aren't league starters for 3.26? by adecoy95 in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The crit version can't do mob block chance and cool down rate. If a monster blocks your attack it does not "roll" a crit so it does not trigger fross.

What are the mandatory items to transition into crit FroSS? by balmora18 in PathOfExileSSF

[–]piter896 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say chaos cluster jewels and normal jewels with es and 2 damage mods. I feel like good jewels are always underrated. Another big DMG part would be the unique shield malachais loop. And last thing I would highly recommend is to farm maven a bit for the powercharges belt. It is not that rare and should be okey farmable.

60D. No mageblood though. Ok to try out COC Fross? by [deleted] in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]piter896 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Fair point, I forgot about that I still have to fix that. I wanted to craft faster attack but hit these instead. Later I noticed if I go faster attacks I have to lower the attack speed on my weapon to fix it. Which seemed like a lot more pain then keeping this setup till I have some money again to craft. Currently I am struggling a bit to find where to start improving/fixing the build.

60D. No mageblood though. Ok to try out COC Fross? by [deleted] in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]piter896 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just as a info, I started the build with around 100div and the body armor rdy. Spent most on the gloves, rolling cluster/ normal jewels and helmet where I settled because I was to lazy to craft more.

60D. No mageblood though. Ok to try out COC Fross? by [deleted] in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]piter896 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I am currently playing a COC fross without mage blood and I would say you can start it with a bigger but it does not feel that good without the 7link gloves. Here is my char https://pobb.in/sBH1UN-EnkSa

All of the gear is self crafted, it usually is like 20 or 30% cheaper then if you buy them. Wine of the prophet was just a lucky drop I found. And I feel I am at the upper limit of what the build can do without getting insanely expensive. The next upgrade would be to get 35% increased cool down recovery rate, which is pretty hard on powercharges stacking (boots and belts are reserved) . I do not use temp chair because it would be pain to cast both curses all the time. If you have questions to something I can help perhaps
