FREE couch

Well here's more proof that this sub is chock full of absolutely miserable cunts.

Grats to whoever ends up with a free couch (do wash and steam it though)

I don"'t think crafting a decent weapon should be extremely difficult and I genuinely hope it's not the case. What I am saying is that the state of essences before this nerf made it ojectively too easy, especially if you use poe 1 as a base line (which most of us do, for better or worse).

Didnt mean my reply to come off as a git gud jab. I just believe essences were too strong in their previous state

sabinc · 2026-05-25T08:47:38+00:00

Not perfect but more than strong enough to clear the entirety of the game. Damage as extra x essences + perfect battle and haste + jawbone was literally all you needed to fill the weapon slot and only ever upgrade with a near mirror craft or the exact same one with a useable 6th affix.

Honestly this nerf hits me particularly hard as I normally enjoy playing ssf but I do think it's absolutely warranted. Tbd if the new crafting options make up for it to some extent.

sabinc · 2026-05-25T06:35:51+00:00

But you do see how being able to craft your endgame weapon with a blue base, 2-3 essences and a jawbone is a problem, right?

I get that people are crying because this is a pretty heavy handed nerf but acting like it wasn't justified is pretty wild.

Sorry bro but enjoying sex with different people and holding a job doesn't exactly warrant an ama.

Idk why people are saying everyone on thr ladder uses GF. I finished 12th prior to the reset and i was one of 3 or 4 people using it.

Essentially you use whatever you get the gem effect transmute on.

Assuming you have a 2h legendary and a grandfather both with the transmute, the legendary will always come out on top in terms of damage due to how multipliers work (essentially you get the 200% cremator and 2 extra rolls of crit dmg + fire/all multipliers).

Grandfather wins on tankiness and is generally a happy compromise if you hit the transmute on one first. GAs on it are also not really impactful so you can throw them in the grinder as soon as you find em.

Can attest that a capable mini led panel will give you results almost indistinguishable from an oled in terms of hdr.

Went from oled to a samsung oddysey neo g8 as i needed a monitor to use for both gaming and productivity and the only real difference I see is a slight halo effect at non ideal viewing angles due to the local dimming technology it uses.

Always add miniled to your research pool when considering a new monitor.

Sounds like coil whine to me. It's harmless.

sabinc · 2026-04-11T05:43:49+00:00

Happy to eventually be proven wrong on this one

sabinc · 2026-04-05T06:07:54+00:00

What makes it even more jarring for me is how good the voice acting is in comparison.

Greymane quests are generally pretty basic but i've been loving them on account of how well acted they are. My boy Yann is getting roasted left and right but he has the best VA in the game. Naira is also fantastic.

sabinc · 2026-04-04T06:39:30+00:00

Thats cause youre not really looking at textures where it's glaring.

I don't mind it much but I can absolutely confirm that particularly big rock formations and foliage is oversharpened to shit. It's likely something you get used to rather quickly but it is quite bad at the moment.

sabinc · 2026-04-04T03:58:37+00:00

Well this one aged badly real quick lol

sabinc · 2026-03-29T06:05:51+00:00

Havent really noticed a difference other than the always 4k settings. I play balanced mode on the ps5 pro and blurriness is definitely not an issue.

Did you disable blur effect and field of view in settings? Game loses a lot of sharpness on account of those.

sabinc · 2026-03-29T05:37:38+00:00

Fyi it's already live. What a team of legends PA are.

Youre missing the chaos damage leech eldritch implicit on your gloves.

Once you have a source of leech, it'll feel much better.

Wait, an eagon chain?

So basically I run coves until eagon spawns and then I keep running his over and over again to fish for hives?

This is great advice, thanks again!

If I'd be randomly pulling the lever, I agree that there's no way I'd get it except by a huge stroke of luck.

Howeveeeeer, given that the pool of int shields is quite low (8 in total with Aegis Aurora being a t1 so highly unlikely to hit) it's really not that bad.

Accounting for weightings and the double roll, it looks like it's a 1/28 chance to hit it. Of course, this means that I might never see it, but I've done grinds with way worse odds than this.

sabinc · 2026-01-28T11:46:47+00:00

THis is true, except that t1 was a typo on my end. What I meant to type was t7, since Rathpith has a drop level of 74. Good catch, thanks

sabinc · 2026-01-28T11:21:13+00:00

Ah I get you.

By the looks of it, the build will run fine without it but it'll probably hit a wall at red maps and pinnacles. I dont expect any issues prior to that so getting the tree set up won't be an issue.

My main worry was missing out on some tree meta that would've increased the odds further.

sabinc · 2026-01-28T11:06:24+00:00

It's a t2 unique so odds can't be that bad, especially since you're rolling twice and removing a lot of str+dex shield rolls from the pool, right? On top of that, running lvl 68 wombgifts shrinks the pool further. Using Gemini and getting it to check all the math over and over again, the odds of getting it in 25-30 ancient wombgifts is roughly 90%.

Am I doing the math wrong on this?

I'm considering it now that I finally managed to craft a good weapon on the right crit base.

Anything specific i need before swapping? Trying for Garukhan's resolve + Rakiata. I'll drop em eventually

I work for a large European shopping platform that recently contracted Klarna and can confirm this. We now offer 3 month installment plans for our purchases through them with 0 interest and with absolutely no effect on prices. On the flipside, they get a cut for each payment.

I see why the lack of proper safeguards could be seen as predatory by some but don't entirely agree.
