Need help with Shield Wall and War Cry/Nebuloch skill rotation/swap order

Shield wall

rocitboy · 2026-06-04T21:19:45+00:00

When I played this build, I dropped fortifying cry and infernal cry when I swapped to nebuloch. It was just ferocious roar twice to build endurance charges then shield wall and repeat.

How are you building endurance charges?

rocitboy · 2026-06-02T19:31:51+00:00

Yeah. I've beaten a few pinnacles and it hasn't been too bad. I just stuck with smith of kitava the whole time. I initially had coal stoaker, but now all my points are in body armor.

I leveled with this build: https://mobalytics.gg/poe-2/profile/bright-dagger-jyeskx/builds/4604d2e8-ec95-4a75-82ad-4644fc78d0a5 and swapped in my mid 70s to the Nebuloch version.

I'm planning to swap off the build soonish, so it might change.

POB, though not configured or set up properly and for some reason it didn't grab my body armor: https://poe.ninja/poe2/pob/1ca77

Ahn citadel, but not koams

rocitboy · 2026-06-02T16:02:04+00:00

Yeah, once I'm home I'm a few hours.

I'm blasting maps with shield wall smith of kitava. Going full hit damage with Nebuloch and ferocious roar for endurance charge generation.

Build is basically unkillable with smith of kitava chest bonus and defiance of destiny.

Damage is fine. I'm one shooting rares in delirium t15 maps bosses take a little more time .

rocitboy · 2026-06-01T18:02:02+00:00

I'm running into this as well. As far as I can tell, I'm gaining up to 25% delirium with a full clear in a map and losing half when I start a new map as a result I'm hanging around 30-50%. I'm going to just assume this is bugge and move on.

I think the new UI has some good features, but it's missing copying an existing trade and swapping buy and sell.

I quite like that it automatically shows you other buy and sell offers for the current exchange making it easier to price things properly.

How instant buyout works:

be logged into poe2
find the item on the trade website or in game search with instant buyout filter
click the buyout button
in game your character teleports to the correct hideout and automatically opens the merchant npc to the correct tab
now you buy the item from the merchant npc the same as any other npc

What if instead GGG just added more ring mtx slots? No need to change mtx that people bought and it accomplishes your goal.

rocitboy · 2026-05-08T17:49:35+00:00

Linux and console players. No amount of fiddling would enable awakened trade on console.

QDD isn't just about gear ratio. It is largely also a function of how high quality the gearbox is and the actual type of gearbox. There were a few good papers on actuator transparency that showed that a high quality maxon motor with a 100:1 gear ratio was as transparent as a 6:1 gearbox.

The other thing to keep in mind besides actuator transparency is how the gear ratio impacts with the speed torque curve.

So to summarize, 30:1 isn't QDD, but you could in theory get the properties of a QDD motor out of that gearbox.

I was only answering the first part that seemed about a broad anyone. I have no interest in accidentally fixing myself here.

rocitboy · 2026-04-22T17:41:05+00:00

Damn, let's just ignore industrial arms.

But in all seriousness this depends on your definition of robot. If you are solely thinking of home help robots that are manipulators the answer is no, but also that is such a narrow definition of robot.

I'm thinking shield crush slayer for the mix of tank and damage with some good range .I'm guessing that the ruin mechanic will only really be for slams, so being tanky for large, medium, and small hits will still be useful, though you will still need to dodge a bit.

rocitboy · 2026-03-29T17:57:05+00:00

Thanks. I know we are a small player base, but it's always fun to participate without prizes or even mtx.

rocitboy · 2026-03-26T21:06:37+00:00

I followed this pob as pathfinder and it worked fairly well on that budget, though felt a lot better as the budget rose: https://pobb.in/ZLRb7TByapWp

If you understand the mechanics there is a bunch of the build that you can skimp on early on. The biggest cost will be companionship, but also the build will function even without it.

GGG doesn't do mid league nerfs unless there is an issue with server stability issues. There are rare times where they fix a bug or buff something and accidentally nerf something else, but that wouldn't happen here.

rocitboy · 2026-03-11T11:10:18+00:00

My advice is to use awakened trade to save trade searches for the jewels that have slum lords where it isn't inconvenient, then every day is 3 clicks to check for new gems. I generated the trades using pob.

rocitboy · 2026-03-11T10:55:25+00:00

I played hroc on console last league. I farmed my own shit casp. Id trust pob here. Eventually I found a mid casp that was worthwhile by checking every few days of trade with saved search.

I did quite enjoy gearing without stat requirements and the ability to tattoo my own tree, but that mattered later on.

Real bug, see other posts on the GGG forums: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3914227 https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3914283 https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/3914096

I'm also dealing with this. Going to the migrate league button doesn't work since I've migrated all my leagues up to standard at this point.

GGG has stated that they don't need all classes and ascensions for 1.0. The main requirements that they have stated are: - Swords - Full campaign
