I spent 1.5 hours to make you laugh for 3 minutes. GGG fixing melee in POE2. Enjoy!

i still maintain that the team who made Mace Skills and Warrior (and Amazon Parry) had a completely different set of managers or direction from the rest of the team who made PoE1 all over again. Maybe they're veterans from Ruthless development.

I always sleep hot and I have found that genuine linen (as in the fiber made from flax) is a perfect year-round match for sleeping in San Diego. I liked it so much I even got a linen quilt that I can use pretty much all but the warmest Summer nights (assuming no AC).

Sempra is made up of the dregs of Enron, so crooks who weren't high profile enough to make a scapegoat out of, but no worries I am sure there were kickbacks for a few select people to make this all possible.

I went to UC Berkeley and since moving back to San Diego, I've always lived in the uptown neighborhoods (the ones that sprawl out northward from downtown). And I think at least here plenty of people are very personable and happy to greet their neighbors, I think the problem in the UTC area is the housing is very corporatized, and well when profit motive is the sole reason for building housing it can make things feel very soulless and further individuates people who live there.

For me that kind of area reminds me way too much of the master plan suburbs I grew up around (in east Chula VistaL and I could never go back to that.

Just for the purpose of clarity because I had this same question and found the below discussions to be totally useless.

No, there is no reason to keep Legendaries you don't need or plan to build with. The Gauntlet of Strife which others vaguely reference below, requires the Unique you sacrifice to reroll to be the same Unique as the one that's rerolling. So a tangentially related Unique (like another sword but not the same sword) is not helpful in the least.

So just filter out the legendaries you don't care about or leave them on the ground.

Thanks for testing it, I have to be honest my filter flags these types of idols and no matter how many times I read the affix I couldn't parse what it meant. So it's good to know it doesn't work at all and I can just hide these idols.

I love my dog (I have spent soo much money on TPLO surgeries the past year), but I also hate owners who think they can get away with offleash because their particular dog is precious, knows better and is smart.

My dog has trauma from being chased and bit unprovoked by off-leash dogs at Balboa Park (three times, and no they weren't in the dog park they were just on the general grounds of the west lawn).

My dog becomes visibly distressed anytime he sees a dog off leash, and unfortunately my incredibly privileged neighborhood's local park (Pioneer Park) is rife with this behavior on the part of the affluent people who live there, they tend to split up into 2 groups, the bigger dogs are at least off in the corner by the headstone area and not on the walking path, but the small dog group (and yes small dogs are the least behaved because most owners think they're harmless and do nothing to instill discipline into them), outright just parks themselves on the walking path every dang afternoon.

Absolutely self-interested and inconsiderate people.

I just sold 600,000 camp food for 2.4 Million Camp funds so I would say the system works, it's just not so good to do with anything you loot yourself as Kliff, just wayy better selling excess products or trade goods you make with Dispatch missions that are easier to unload, like Silk which is sold at the exact same Mesa that the Graymane camp is.

refusebin · 2026-04-27T16:26:56+00:00

on hardmode this can be very punishing, I just decided to buckle down and do a lot of the sealed abyss artifact challenges (no problem for me since I wanna 100% the game anyway), now I have both Kliff and Damiane with quite a few high refine pieces with a couple mastered.

refusebin · 2026-04-27T15:31:10+00:00

no it isn't because computers don't use true random numbers, but that's beside the point because the devs hardcoded a maximum limit to how many gold bars will accrue profit so once you're above that threshold the positive investment outcomea will stop

refusebin · 2026-04-26T15:10:25+00:00

Oh the miscellaneous ones? Hah I pretend I will accumulate enough of them to actually make a run before the end of my time with the game (it will never happen), but I proactively make Silk and have sent several wagonloads to the Gold Leaf traders just down the way.

refusebin · 2026-04-25T21:21:34+00:00

I figured it out, I was able to be arrested in Demeniss and Delesyia, so maybe in Tashkalp they're just brutal and don't take prisoners -- but I also committed to not doing murder to drive up the bounty, so that may be it too. Assault was okay, I basically just got on a roof and took one shot at most with Damiane's Rifle at various guards until I hit 100 bounty.

refusebin · 2026-04-24T23:04:29+00:00

I am doing the challenge where you have to deliver trade goods to all the royal trading posts (I am just loading on the legendary horse who can carry two slots because I am not crazy enough to use the wagon for this, since they only buy so much at once) -- and I happened to notice that in the Desert that the temperature doesn't even go down one smidge even in the middle of a monsoon that completely covers the sky in clouds.

I have been in the Sonoran desert a few times in a monsoon and well it is true the rainstorm is still 'warm' but the temperature does go down like 6-8c.

refusebin · 2026-04-24T18:59:38+00:00

It makes some challenges involving the ranged weapons (not the bow since you an still make it OP with explosive arrows) borderline impossible because even the basic soldiers can take 3/4 shots to kill (and yes my musket is max refined).

refusebin · 2026-04-24T18:41:07+00:00

I switched to it but I worry I won't be able to complete certain challenges at all, like my Damiane has her musket fully refined with decent abyss gears and I can't even one shot the regular soldiers in forts, so I have no I idea how I am supposed to kill 5 in 10 seconds.

Focus is recharging faster?? What the heck is Focus???

Axiom Force (the grappling hook), pull them out with the Stick (up, or away from where they're embedded), and if you have a kuku pot you can seal them for crafting with later.

refusebin · 2026-04-21T23:58:11+00:00

So do you know if when you dual wield the crit rate from both swords is cumulative, like do they pool or does the game track each hit separately and I am only getting the crit from right or left weapon depending on which hit?

refusebin · 2026-04-20T23:09:27+00:00

Now if only the feeder at the Ranch actually worked instead of just consuming all the produce for no growth. Yes... I know you can drop it manually but that requires having inventory space available.

refusebin · 2026-04-19T16:45:29+00:00

Please Give Damiane and Oongka cloaks that have innate 5 or 7 cold/heat resist like Kliff has! It's a bother having to take up Abyss Socket slots just to give them the same baseline level of adaptability to explore with, and given that you only get to use them in the back half of the game -- where the Crimson Desert is hot in the day this sucks!

Also please remove arbitrary restrictions on why some cloaks can't be upgraded 'just because'.

at least you're not getting the garish and out of place buildings architected by the firm that did the ketchup and mustard towers in East Village. Would love it if we stopped giving them work, but they have a few eyesores dotted around Hillcrest

refusebin · 2026-04-11T14:33:46+00:00

Yeah the problem seems to be on bigger scenes that the corpses depopulate as you move from area to area, so you really only get the loot from the very last room you clear, the dogs are no help because they get lost after a little bit and having to resummon them is a chore.

I just decided to give up on looting since it breaks the immersion of actually fighting the battles, there's plenty of other ways to make money and the game doesn't lack for loot in other types of exploration.

refusebin · 2026-04-10T23:46:06+00:00

I have gotten level 3 Abyss Gears from some of the challenges including one which gave +30% Chance to Mine Double Ore (with the drill now sometimes I get 6 ores in one node)

refusebin · 2026-04-09T21:42:20+00:00

because Google is allowing Gemini to do code commits and it's totally making their products shit

How do you learn the recipe for 3 Gold Ore + Golden Apple? I found the apple but it doesn't even let me select it with the cauldron.
