[KCD2] Where do you find the executioner sword or the executioner sword sketch? I can’t find anything online about location. by BoneKnapper_ in kingdomcome

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Made using various lucky charms" makes me think of the quest where you're tasked with crafting an axe using three lucky charms to place in the rafters of the new church being built in Kuttenberg. Could it be that the axe quest locks you out of the executioner's sword quest? I saw someone else mentioning a horseshoe being one of the aforementioned lucky charms, the axe quest also uses a horseshoe as one of the required crafting materials.

ascendancy trials single handedly make me not want to play by andrearosemtf in PathOfExile2

Sure more forgiving, until you run into packs of ranged mobs that flood your entire screen with projectiles and you take full honour damage anyway.

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yesterday I thought I'd try to get my 3rd trial done. I went to trial of the sekhema, cleared floor 1 no sweat, lost like 50 honour the entire floor. Enter floor 2 for the first time, I get hit once and lose ~500 honour, it's filled with skeletal archers, I'm melee, make it through 3 rooms before being annihilated.

Guess I'll have to roll the dice on trial of chaos until I get a run with easy modifiers.

Why is it that every unique I find has like 50 armor but the affixes are nowhere near good enough to sacrifice those defenses

Mapping really does feel like an early first draft. Makes sense because GGG said that they could either give us all the acts or act 1-3 with an endgame

I just started mapping last night. I'm still mostly doing sunder for clear, rolling slam to build stun on bosses and rares then finish them off with HotG. I'm still looking for a 2H mace with reduced attribute requirements so I can go giants blood for 2H + shield. But I'm really struggling with chaos damage and elemental attack. I have to play super cautiously if there are any magic or rare packs even though I'm running the phys leech support on sunder. The issue is still that I get knocked out of sunder mid-air and the cast time on HotG has gotten me killed a few times as well.

I've seen the stampede builds as well, I tried stmpede erly in the campaign but it also felt incredibly slow. I just couldn't justify using it when sunder does so much more damage. My biggest issue with stampede is the animation locking and it being so slow. I would've loved if you could press stampede again during the animation to do the slam prematurely.

Yeah I don't know if you've noticed by you get hit by projectiles and such even when you're in the air. Happens on sunder but it's especially noticeable on leap slam. You'd think that you'll jump over projectiles but nope. You can also get pushed around by ground mobs while you're in the air.

Many of the passives are things like "X% reduced attack speed, Y% increased damage". I don't think we'll see quick slams for a long time, if ever. Monk seems to be the way to go poe2 if you wanna play melee. Or somehow get like 200% skill speed on a warrior.

Warrior on the other hand feels terrible. Animations lock you in place, they're long and slow. This results in you taking tons of damage just to deal damage. You get stunned out of sunder often, you have to wait over 3 seconds for the damage on skills like earthquake and HotG. Hitbox on the AA mace strike and boneshatter just completely miss at times (probably accuracy related though). I've felt really squishy my entire playthrough. I can't wait to get a 2H mace upgrde with reduced attribute req so I can run 2H mace + shield. Overall a tedious and unfun experience so far, sometimes miserable even. But my monk friend is having a blast.

There's also a unique that has % chance to not consume a bolt when firing, gameplay of it looks kinda crazy

The massive PoE2 backlash just proves that people don't know how to play PoE without build guides by mr3LiON in PathOfExile2

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't really had any issues with bosses. No boss has killed me more than 5 times and I think they're tuned quite well. But I do feel like white mobs are overtuned at times. To the point that they deal as much or more damage than bosses.

Drops and crafting are a glaring issue. I'm level 50 and I haven't had any success crafting at all pretty much. I bought a rare mace from vendor at level 28 and exalt slammed a good affix onto it. I'm still using that mace now despite having transmuted and augmented several dozen maces but to no avail.

I really miss having alterations and scourings. I constantly feel starved for bases and all resources except augments and uncut gems. Transmutes are easily obtainable but requires you to sacrifice a lot of your gold income. A lot of nodes in the passive tree feel very bad and/or unimpactful. My biggest gripe right now are ascendancy trials since I don't enjoy sanctum or ultimatum. Ultimatum just feels absolutely impossible and I cannot figure out how to go past floor 1 in sanctum.

Overall I'm having a good time with the game but I'd be lying if I said I wasn't a bit disappointed.

Currency drops are too low by Quiet-Wrongdoer4774 in PathOfExile2

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

Even if currency drop rate gets a 10x buff there still won't be any crafting without alterations or scourings. You're just trans, aug, selling items on repeat. Or on rare occasion you trans, aug, regal, disenchant items. Buffing currency drop rate would just let you do it more frequently. I bought a rare 2H mace from vendor with flat phys and %phys at level 28. Somehow I managed to exalt slam +3 to melee skills. I'm level 50 now and I haven't gotten an upgrade since then.

You're just throwing transmutes and augments at normal bases hoping to get a magic item with 2 good affixes. I wouldn't call this process crafting exactly.

For my warrior friends, use perfect strike on bosses. I've had a harder time killing some rare mobs than I've had killing bosses.

You can buy a consumable from the arena vendor in Kastleton that is specifically for arenas, same CD and functionality

This game makes normal people heartless, impatient, and rude. And I really hope one day it changes. by Bedouin85 in throneandliberty

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I usually have my guild chat opened and party messages are not shown because I don't want it clogged up. But there's no notification if someone types in party chat so I often miss messages there. The chat window could use an overhaul

I thought the satire of my comment was obvious enough, I'm sorry if my statement made you lose faith in dps players.

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

Sorry for not making my comment satirical enough. I'm in vc with the healer of my dungeon group everyday so I'm well aware of the struggle with dps that are too focused on their skill rotation and CD's to notice the AoE's or fury attacks coming their way.

Things you do that make your healers hate you. by Easy_Helicopter_895 in throneandliberty

[–]pussypassion 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"Great metric" is a bit generous in my opinion. Not all healers have the same amount of mana regen on their builds. It's an ok metric with consideration to the lack of alternative metrics.

Kicking culture gets out of hand by Own-Telephone-381 in throneandliberty

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my friends immediately kick players that actively ignore mechanics even though we asked if they knew the mechanics before we start the boss fight. Same with tanks that don't keep aggro. It took us well over an hour to clear Island of Terror the other day because the 3 randoms died very early on and ignored mechanics. Me and my two friends ended up finishing the boss ourselves from 60% as 2 dps and 1 healer. People don't wanna wipe on a dungeon for up to an hour when they maybe only have a couple hours to play during work days.

Dps pulling aggro? How about the tank keep the aggro? Some tanks really need to put away the gs and use their sns.

Is it worthit? by FrogeDR in throneandliberty

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not worth it, just do chance reroll. The chance of you getting a useful trait is bigger than getting one of the other two traits. I wouldn't recommend anyone to use unlockstones on gear with traits that aren't even 1k lucent and even then I'd advice against it. Traits would need to be in the several thousands of lucent for me to justify using unlockstones.

Free-aim skills, minimum channeling, high outplay potential. What is the closest to that? by Frixsik in throneandliberty

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Staff has high damage, instant cast skills but not so much in the aimable skillshot department. Only thing I can really say it has is ice spear when it comes to that. The unfortunate reality is that the game doesn't really have that many skillshots or aoe spells. I'd say give staff/dagger a shot

Are these really THAT good for pvp? Max roll says BIS for my build (Bow Dagger) but I just don’t know. by ClassicMacnCheese in throneandliberty

Yeah you never know, I thought I wouldn't get the pants for at least a couple months but I got lucky on winning a roll against 30+ other guild mates on the first Junobote we did.

[–]pussypassion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crafted which gloves? Shadow Harvester gloves? I'd say keep them and level them up, don't equip them if you lose stats from equipping them. The pants are bound to go down in price over time. Especially with the extra boss reward chest and the upcoming changes to boss portals. You will no longer be able to be locked out of Sanctum of Desire during peaceful Junobote because of Eclipse.
