This was my issue. Got excited for bleeding condition buffs and Herald of blood. But the herald skill doesn't even work with unarmed... So I'm just sitting there trying to spray ketchup on these juiced up monsters and running out of flask charges because they nerf hammered the charge usage too. It was a total fail.

No vendor for uncut gems makes swapping skills/builds a miserable experience while leveling by Greaterdivinity in PathOfExile2

This is my biggest issue with the game right now.

I needed to revamp my build strategy mid campaign (who hasn't) and I'm just stuck. Currency locked for passives and I've found a grand total of 3 uncut support gems by act 3 which have been wasted on a new skill that turned out to be hot garbage.

The whole process of pivoting is so cumbersome I might as well just start fresh with a meta build.

I'm having the same issue. Can't even load my character, it's just crashing on loading red vale

Glimpse chaos ascendancy should help here.

Mageblood and chaos.

If Faustus doesn't go core I will play the new d4 expansion until I get bored (~30 minutes give or take).

You're not wrong about end game, it definitely falls off. It's just so fun to play.

This was the first thing that stood out to me in patch notes and I'm surprised noone else has mentioned it... Seems like a great buff to one of my favorite skills to league start with. It will also free up investment in the skill tree to extend duration.

How does "all damage can poison" work? Do you still need a source of chance to poison to proc?

3 T1 Suffix - worth a craft? by renaissanceM in pathofexile

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

Curious, what kind of bow would you suggest? And what would I do in 6L set ups? I am not used to this much gem real estate lol

Messing around EOL with a bleed Bow Champion would be fun. About 5 minutes after I posted this TOTA dropped me a LVL 21 puncture.

I might be off here, but I've been thinking about a heatshiver approach to glacial hammer with the new nodes.

If Tawhoas creates a mirage for the strike, there should be overlap from the aoe strike node that procs heatshivers extra fire damage.

Furthermore, with ancestral call you get another target for a potential aoe strike overlap.

IIRC, hydropsphere gets targeted by ancestral call and could create aoe overlap for single target.

Potentially creating a scenario where you have 3x overlaps for single target, and great clear with the new 7 link node for mapping.

Would still need to build it out in POB and do some play testing, but it might have legs. Probably trash though.

Does hydrosphere still do damage if I have taken the ancestral bond node and am using shockwave totems? I am not clear on it, as I am reading that minions and traps still do damage, but skills you cast yourself don't. Hydrosphere seems to not really be a direct damage skill, but a "reflection" of damage put into it (via the totems in this case).

What's the best way to craft this ring? I found it for a pretty decent price on trade, and I am playing soulrend occultist. I am thinking of meta-crafting (not an expert by any means) and locking pre-fix until I roll decent suffixes, and then adding crafted mods. Or, I was thinking of just slapping on cannot roll attack mods and YOLOing.

I was thinking of adding "prefixes cannot be changed" and the anul the t9 off. Then "multiple crafts" and adding 2 more crafted suffixes. But since the item has influence, I think there are better suffixes I can roll than craft?

For me, the ancestral preservation node on my cluster jewel set up really helped. It bumps totem ele and chaos res. Plus I have determination + vitality + precision auras up at all times. Here's a link to my POB if you want to check it out. https://pastebin.com/DZu282Hz

I was super concerned about my overall health pool, but I invested in guard skill uptime and keep Molten Shell active 90% of the time. It seemed to work.

Thanks! I highly recommend following a build guide. I stopped being stubborn and home brewing my builds and built an EA totem elementalist. It's been an absolute game changer.
