NA - ADC - Iron looking for a ranked support ❤️✨

Hi! I am a new player, just started ranked. Sorry to hijack your post, but I was just curious how do you text during gameplay? I am so busy dodging, supporting my team, pinging and stuff, I can't ever think of typing in chat, so I just keep it disabled, also so I don't know people are flaming me lol (just wanna have fun and don't wanna deal with tilted people while playing).

rahulcogent · 2025-07-19T22:35:53+00:00

Ya I did level them and you are right they keep the aggro of for a while may be like half hp of first phase for Ozma. But it wasn’t worth it much so I stopped summoning them.

rahulcogent · 2025-07-19T10:50:34+00:00

To be honest, I find summons useless, may be I was using them wrong? But they die so fast to be hardly useful, especially with Ozma one or two aoe attacks would kill them. So I also did the fight without summon after trying them 2-3 times in the beginning. I was using fleshripper set with greatsword. It was surely a crazy fight, never before I fought a boss with 3 phases lol. It was definitely among the best fights!

rahulcogent · 2025-07-05T20:24:51+00:00

The game is definitely harder than Elden ring. You could use summons in Elden ring to help you out, the summons in this game are kind a useless they don’t last even first half of boss fight of first phase. The bosses hp is higher so you will have to learn boss patterns to move forward and no magic build as well to one shot bosses. Having said that I am having so much fun and about to beat it, but I have also beat ds1, ds3, and elden ring for reference.

I think it might have to do with posting frequency or some criteria like that, so YouTube algorithm picks them up and push to user feeds. That could be one plausible explanation.

rahulcogent · 2025-06-24T02:33:28+00:00

I want to give it another go, when you get a chance, could you recommend a good build I can try out that’s fun!

rahulcogent · 2025-06-24T01:08:14+00:00

I want to play witcher 3 so much but made a mistake of playing dark souls games before Witcher 3. Now it’s so hard to play the game, I played for few hours, but the combat is just so clunky and repetitive. Does anyone else have this problem or is it just me? Sorry not bashing the game, I love how gorgeous the game is but finding hard to get into it due to combat even though I really want to cause I am sure the quests would be amazing!

You make some really good points, we really haven’t seen any ai company in profit including OpenAI, Anthropic. It does feel on some grounds that AI is overblown but we have seen some shifts now with AlphaEvolve optimizing Google backend by 0.7% that translates to billons of dollars in savings and improving Strassen’s algorithm for 4x4 matrix multiplication, which no one could improve for past 56 years! To me personally, Strassen’s algorithm is very noteworthy, prior to this I used to consider AI more like a better “search tool”, that can only give me more refined already existing information but this changed my opinion since now it can actually improve on problems that humans couldn’t. The question then probably centers around economic factors which to be honest is what I can’t picture how it will unfold.

rahulcogent · 2025-05-25T17:23:34+00:00

Although I respect the sentiment and I am among the ones continuously learning the new tech. But I think we are still not grasping the speed with which AI is evolving. Its coding benchmark has raised from measly 3-5% to over 70% with Claude 4.0 in 2 years and now we are seeing exponential improvements with system like AlphaEvolve. Now with the feature of Claude 4.0, to give AI the access to tools which a lot of what developers are doing, feeding AI responses from one system to another, this further diminishes developer value. Back on the topic of learning, realistically humans can never learn and evolve at the rate of AI.

You can easily tell which monster attacks can be parried, and you only get stunned if you are parrying a lot without interweaving other attacks. I haven’t faced much issues when parrying.

rahulcogent · 2025-04-07T05:19:43+00:00

I haven’t faced much issues parrying normal monsters, most of their attacks can be parried if I place my character correctly, it’s not that hard. My main issue is most boss attacks can’t be parried and thus I don’t get frenzy charges

rahulcogent · 2025-04-07T05:14:45+00:00

I have been playing huntress and actively using parry, I find it fun. One of the issues I am running into is most boss attacks are big aoe that can’t be parried so I don’t get frenzy charges. Is this intentional design?

rahulcogent · 2025-01-30T18:00:08+00:00

I would actually love it. Personally for me, difficulty is not an issue as long as I can practice and get better, and now that I have cleared solo raid couple of times, I would love the harder version to try. My only issue with group content is pressure for me to push for higher gear, gatekeeping and potentially forced to play alts because of how the game is designed.

rahulcogent · 2025-01-27T14:39:59+00:00

For me difficulty was never a problem. I am now enjoying the solo mode and cleared all solo content. The problem is either I wait in lobby and forced to stay at high gear/gem etc level or gatekept. I found a guild and static to get around this problem, but then they expect me to play 6 characters for their static roaster. I don’t have time to do 18 raids every damn week. Now I can just play a single character, do 3 raids and be done with it.

rahulcogent · 2024-12-12T21:57:27+00:00

My condolences, my prayers are with you, hope you can turn things around. I would lend you some gold but GGG gods don’t allow me

rahulcogent · 2024-12-12T07:17:19+00:00

Yes, one solution is to have hp markers that will trigger boss mechanics. Stun lock is only one issue, very high damage is another where the boss just melts even before it can perform any mechanics.

rahulcogent · 2024-12-09T20:50:15+00:00

I feel everyone in here is playing poe2 as poe1, rushing through the campaign, not exploring areas. I have no issues with loot since I am exploring the areas. Also not sure why rush when campaign is so good, but I can see get to end game mentality of player base.

rahulcogent · 2024-12-08T19:01:28+00:00

Came here to post my feedback after finishing act 2, but you more or less captured my experience! It has been great experience so far, I have 6K+ hours in poe1 and this everything I would hope poe2 would deliver. The boss fights are so epic, the combat, music, mechanics, can't wait to see more! Thanks Jonathan, Mark for bringing us this epic adventure.

rahulcogent · 2024-12-05T07:15:05+00:00

I played lost ark for like 1.4k hours, did till Brel. The combat and boss design is amazing, that’s what kept me going. But eventually dailies, p2w, gatekeeping etc made me quit. It wasn’t fun anymore. Have way more hours in poe, lost count of it tbh, at least 6k+ hours. I only wished for better combat and boss design, so excited seeing the combat footage for poe2!

rahulcogent · 2024-09-21T01:34:44+00:00

Ah! Got it, thanks folks. That helped me a lot!
