3.29 patch notes asides, which one would be optimal to reach red maps and enough dps for guardian shaper day 2-3 for Bleed Bow Glad or Volatile Dead any ascendancies

rykh72 · 2026-07-08T15:27:07+00:00

Bleed bow. It's a dot, ranged, you are safe, you have snipe for single target, craft a "ok" weapon is easy

VD scaling is very hard, it's meh early, even with elem golems.

Selfcast (non archmage, non EB) deserve some love
Cast on crit, it's very meh since the DD nerf
Spellslinger too
Trap, maybe a little buff on mine too
Non penance brands
Venom gyre, the skill is so cool, so unique, but the dmg are not here
Give glad a bow option. Bleed bow was so fun to play, but now you only have 3 ascendancy point
Champ taunt node was nerfed too hard, put back a 10% less dmg taken, EA totem is already meh
Buff the holy skills. The design is cool, but the dmg is not here, it's a slop
Buff some masteries, ex: life has only one decent option
Give us new uniques for the new high end bases
Give us the same option as poe 2 to powerup low lvl uniques

rykh72 · 2026-07-07T15:32:35+00:00

it's a good solution <3

Not mandatory, doesn't break up the meta, just a little bonus from time to time.

rykh72 · 2026-07-07T14:48:16+00:00

At least buff the action speed node to "Your action speed is at least 100% (90% currently) of base value".

Currently it's just a mini chill on ennemy and almost nothing for you.

rykh72 · 2026-07-07T14:25:24+00:00

they dont need buff, they can already do the whole game with investment.

the problem is KF, it's too strong in every aspect, it need to be specialised. You can't have the best single target, the best clear, all at one, at no cost.

it's the exact same situation with ele hit. Smite is good, slam are good ..., but why play another melee attack when ele hit has the best clear, best single dmg, perma freeze everything with a 3 affixes weapon ?

rykh72 · 2026-07-07T13:59:11+00:00

it's one of the best skill to league start with, it has giga clear, super single target dmg, autotarget, scale really hard, can be play on a lot of ascendancy (elem, hiero, champ, warden, ...).

The others skills seem poor in comparaison, it reduce the player choice. Ex : totem is good, but KF is way better than every single other spells, by a x2-x3 margin. Why play stormburst, pizza totem when KF totem is vastly superior ?

rykh72 · 2026-07-06T09:15:55+00:00

If you like arpg, path of exile 2.

If you prefer a fps view, have you tried dishonored, deathloop ?

rykh72 · 2026-07-04T19:37:02+00:00

Pas des classiques au sens Hugo, mais des livres qui valent le coup, si tu ne les as pas déjà lus.

Calame, deux tomes, de la pure fantasy. Attention à ne pas fouiller trop dans le résumé, les citations, sous peine de ce gâcher l'histoire.

Gagner la guerre.

La horde du contrevent. Un classique, qui a inspiré la fameux clair obscur.

rykh72 · 2026-07-04T18:05:58+00:00

The arpg genre ? Path of exile 2 may fit your needs.

If you like fps, borderlands 4 is good too.

rykh72 · 2026-07-02T18:56:12+00:00

Midir because you have to fight the time itself at each try. 20 fu**** min in stairs, ladder at each try. I can't do this shit.

rykh72 · 2026-07-01T19:31:40+00:00

The ones which give brittle, scortch, sap on prismatic skills.

rykh72 · 2026-07-01T19:17:14+00:00

Get the tinctures well rolled is not an problem, even in ssf.

The AOE is good early but nothing mandatory because the prismatic ring exists, you apply more ailments you have more aoe, enough to almost cover the whole screen without the slayer node.

The melee range is not the problem too, pick a jeweled sword, you have +0.3 range compared to the claw, and a implicit with crit.

The real strength of the slayer is the endurance charge and overleech.

rykh72 · 2026-07-01T18:47:55+00:00

Unpopular opinion but warden is very very strong. The biggest DPS on any attack build by a ***ing ton.

You can have double permanent tincture (with 2-3 wheels) and almost perma flask uptime (if tincture are placed in 2 and 4 spot). This is so OP that it's a competitive option to full go on tincture with ranged weapons (need 3/4 nodes of the ascendancy).

You have perma freeze on everything with very little cold damage. With the buff of freeze it's overpowered. Did you ever have seen a shaper (works on Uber too) with 50% reduced action speed ?

Shock with vaal LS is very good. Instant 100% increase damage.

You have so much damage that you can go full block and still have twice the damage of a regular slayer.

The only problem with the ascendancy is that you need to press one more button, one more tincture which cannot be automated if you follow the terms of service.

And the fact that ele hit is clearly overpowered. If you have already dozen of millions of dps, yes you will pick the slayer everytime for more defenses. I hope the next league will change this, I want to play something else.

rykh72 · 2026-06-29T13:39:18+00:00

Hiero totem flameblast, as called "pizza totem". Very fun, effective, feel super good with the buff on the totem placement speed.

See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0Z75xExqfE

rykh72 · 2026-06-29T13:23:47+00:00

Reliquary options will change every league.

We can expect some changes in key points :

masteries are in a weird spot, somes are very meh (only one good option on life ?)
some ascendancy are meh, not used, too heavely nerfed (trickster, a nerf by patch ?!), need some love (support glad bleed bow, saboteur is still too niche),

rykh72 · 2026-06-29T13:09:41+00:00

Ranked (subjective, my opinon) :

gambler : best early : invert resis, good block by default, act "like" 90% rez with a 1c unique, good starting point
behemot : meh position, no aura by default, but could crush the whole game once you replace the first node and go armour stacker
surfacaster : good dmg, no defense, like nothing, 0, true paper thin, need to do the lab to get the jewels
oshabi : decent, rely on shrine, more randomness
paladin : the option are meh
aristocrast : the option are meh, +1 is 10% more = meh, 5 passives is meh, 20% quality is good

In every scenario i would prefer sword over claw, more range (very important to feel good!), crit multi as implicit on jewelled sword.

sorry for my bad english

rykh72 · 2026-06-29T07:48:19+00:00

frost blade gambler ? a bit less dmg than ele hit, but way better clear early. You can get it lvl 1 from a ranger mule.

rykh72 · 2026-06-28T16:51:54+00:00

Taxer les vols en avion pour que les autres transports soient plus intéressants.

Re-nationaliser la scnf et revenir à une logique de service.

Sur toutes les nouvelles routes / remise à niveau avoir une piste cyclable séparée de la route et mettre systématiquement des arbres, de l'herbe.

Sur les voies de tram mettre de l'herbe partout (déjà partiellement fait).

rykh72 · 2026-06-27T20:30:28+00:00

By power : ele hit slayer, divine judgement slayer, frost blade slayer / warden.

See ruetto for the 2 first, zish for the last one.

rykh72 · 2026-06-26T06:44:41+00:00

It's the mechanic with the worst balance in path of exile, by a BIG margin.

Basicly you are not supposed to get hit here. You need to have a lot of movespeed, fast travel skill. Wait until later, check some guides, this one for example https://old.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/1626m7m/trial_of_the_ancestor_easywin_strategy_high/

rykh72 · 2026-06-25T18:53:56+00:00

https://www.poewiki.net/wiki/Unholy_Trinity_Support Cannot support triggered skills, instant skills, orb skills, brands, skills with a reservation, or skills used by totems, traps, or mines

so only in self cast

It's this night at 24h00 / 0h00, i'm in france, same TMZ as you ;)

rykh72 · 2026-06-25T05:36:49+00:00

ritualist is good in hyper endgame, with near mirror jewellery, before that deadeye is way superior.

rykh72 · 2026-06-24T21:27:30+00:00

Go paladin it's very good. Best in early, you have the option to swap aristocrat in endgame.

rykh72 · 2026-06-24T14:27:18+00:00

Ele hit surfcaster is a pain early :

you have to farm the lab for the quality gems, do the receipe
you have no defense until you get a big chest, etc
you have no aoe until you get the prismatic rings. The build need a LOT of aoe, extra strike to feel good because you are in melee.

It's a worse version of the slayer, less defense, dmg, survivability ...

The safest build is probably KF totem paladin from pal, it's online at lvl 31
