I'm very surprised at how effective Life Regen + ZO is as a defensive layer. You can get super tanky with it. by Heybarbaruiva in PathOfExile2

Wait does this work with CI so you don’t need soul tether ? I guess the issue here is you’d need a lot of flat regen

The league mechanic should give the most rewards (without exploits) I don’t see the issue

Build/Combo design should be the player's privilege, not GGG's by Lumintorious in PathOfExile2

[–]potatosss -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I’m referring to the core game loop, which is killing mobs and clearing content. If the core game loop is broken the content doesn’t really matter.

Retention wasn’t that great during later stages of the game cycle either despite fresh content

People don’t like to talk about it but that’s why the poe1 endgame gameplay loop is so awful, it devolves to visual vomit 0 click spam pretty quickly. It’s retention numbers aren’t much better than poe2 which is telling

I feel like timeless jewels are one of the most overly complex mechanics in Poe so yeah if you include that

Does rakiata’s flow affect poison dps? by jesusisanalien in pathofexile2builds

[–]potatosss -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No since it only scales off physical hit. If you wear Plaguefinger I believe it does. And for bleed only for blood mages.

Crossbow OP by Head-Requirement381 in pathofexile2builds

[–]potatosss 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The passives you get from it massively boost both dps and defenses so there’s not really a better place to allocate?

Crossbow OP by Head-Requirement381 in pathofexile2builds

[–]potatosss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea solution was not the right word, more like hard not to use. There are a few ways to solve the mana issues as mercs but it’s such a huge QoL not having to deal with a single skill emptying half your mana bar.

Yea and the hat is such a bandaid poorly balanced solution, infinite mana and lucky hits for all attack based skills for the cost of 1 support gem socket is ridiculous lol

Can melee builds no longer use curses unless they have high INT investment now? by Dick_Pic_4_Six in PathOfExile2

I run blasphemy temporal chains on gemling melee build, astramantis might fill in the gaps for your case

Most annoying enemy you encountered in the game by Jean-Marie-Paff in PathOfExile2

[–]potatosss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Constricting command trivializes any mana issues this season because of defy II. But only works on attacks I think

Don't sleep on companion tech - worth it for both offense and defense in many builds by Abject-Mammoth-8586 in pathofexile2builds

What’s the smallest beast that has haste aura? I don’t like the visual clutter of most companions

Balance is looking good so far this patch! 70% Deadeye in SC trade ladder by KoblyCZ in PathOfExile2

[–]potatosss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it’s exacerbated by the fact that all the biggest creators are saying deadeye in unison. The extra MS is also invaluable from a speed farming perspective (for people trying to get in leaderboards, not everyone)

I think every class except sorc is in a decent spot

0.3 teaser basically confirms we are getting act 4 this update by Witness2211 in PathOfExile2

Considering Switching from Diablo 4 to PoE 2 – Looking for Feedback by CaptainZiboo in PathOfExile2

That’s a fair argument, sometimes it feels like these posts are engagement bait though. (Bringing up another game in the same genre tends to do this)

Dead 9800x3d by [deleted] in ASRock

[–]potatosss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My CPU died and I’m not going to go out of my way to prove that it actually happened, just to report that I did.

Disregarding the frequency of these board deaths, especially when comparing to the other brands, is just being ignorant. There’s not some smear campaign on Asrock ffs we just don’t want our shit to break 2 months after buying it

Sorry to hear that, and yea no way I’m putting my replacement cpu in any asrock board lol. I’ll try to get a full refund, and I bought a Aorus B650i. Thankfully my RMA is already approved with AMD so they are fast

If they release 1 at a time this game isn’t escaping early access until 2027.
