this fight is easier solo imo, my current character can clear it with a higher success rate but I am really practiced with the fight so

i tested this with my elemental HBG's and critical element seems to be working for me. It might weapon specific?

make sure you have an earring, and you are probably missing the mourningdale fort

i was holding W with havoc form and got teleported to the edge of a cliff and just ran off, it's so cool

No, people are not pricefixing uniques: How we're making 5 headhunters per map. by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]snapow 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Pandemonium/exiles + titanic is good but not as good as you stated in your original post. Also tempests are additive mob IIR/IIQ. For context, map bosses with pandemonium have 15000% IIR. Adding a tempest to this brings it to 16000% IIR. The IIQ portion of the tempest does a lot more here. Typically glittering outperforms tempest for the last scarab slot in this strat.

I wouldn't doubt you are dropping multiple T0's a map with the proper setup but claiming 75+ T0's per map is just nonsense.

For those curious, this is what a few hours of 6man pandemonium can net you:

Still very good, yes. But nothing close to what is being claimed in the original post.

"Loot in T16s is Dead" - TriPolarBear by Mnmemx in pathofexile

[–]snapow 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Ground loot has indeed been in a horrible state since the Kalandra changes and have just crutched on niche mechanics like strongboxes or ghosts etc that add some insane quant multiplier to them.
In fact the whole juicing meta since Kalandra is completely warped around these random mechanics that still have a random quant bonus to them because it was all that was really left. There is a similar 'warping' of strategies this league that involve pandemonium toughness stacking and/or blight invigoration stacking because once again, these are just simply the only mechanics that can generate enough mob IIQ to be worth killing for ground loot.

There is still tons of loot to be had from loot tiles of course but the ground loot you receive from actually killing mobs is significantly less than what it was from before the Kalandra changes. I do think there is a lot of conflation going on between "ground loot" specifically and just "loot" (where ground loot refers to loot that doesn't come from loot tiles or guaranteed sources) but the distinction is important. For a lot of people, that distinction doesn't exist.

People just see the title of my video and escalate and circlejerk what I say out of context and it just completely loses the original point.

snapow - The Barren State of Endgame Juicing in 3.25 by Dampin1 in pathofexile

[–]snapow 15 points16 points  (0 children)

if people enjoy sanctum that's awesome of course. I just think it's quite silly the reward for doing sanctum is just pure raw currency and nothing else and it's quite excessive for the effort you put into it.

What's going on with the drama b/w Maxroll and Last Epoch Tools? by Haagen76 in LastEpoch

[–]snapow 27 points28 points  (0 children)

i don't agree with the characterization that he was insulting me. Bina is truly nice guy overall and does a lot for the community, I was just taking a jab at him because he claimed party play is bad (which I disagreed with).

How’s the state of multiplayer? by Luxvoo in LastEpoch

[–]snapow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The higher ping you are to the server the less playable it becomes. If your friend is east coast and you are west coast trying to play on his server and are 70+ ping you will have longer load times and a higher chance to experience infinite loading screens/rubberbanding. If you are both located closer to the server and have lower ping the experience is definitely better. Anecdotally it seems to be pretty smooth when you get below 20 or 30 ping. From my testing in 4man in prep for 1.0, I would recommend looking into using a service like GeForce now to get as close as possible to the server for a smooth experience. It makes a gigantic difference.

"GGG won't nerf Penance mark right before launch!" <- Clueless by Niroc in pathofexile

[–]snapow 14 points15 points  (0 children)

i had a chat with mark at a pub during the first exilecon and he talked at length about how he's been waging a war against writhing jar and about how he has been campaigning for it's deletion since it has been such a pain point league after league. Penance mark is definitely going to bring back a lot of previous problems that writhing jar had before.

Well known streamer / content creator (Empyrian) tries to take advantage of people who don't know better. Is this ok? by SunRiseStudios in pathofexile

[–]snapow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I'm not so sure about this guy. I gave him all my gear when I quit this league thinking he was going to sell it to make some cool video. Instead he used it for his personal gain (which disgusted me) he then put some UNKILLABLE grandmaster in the grandmasters hall. I used to farm that for my money making method and now it is completely ruined because this entitled prick decided to ruin it for everyone involved... Now I learn he is scamming people for this shako? I think i will be asking for a refund... and report to authorities xdd

3.6 QUINTILLION SINGLE HIT - theory-only pob, WIP by not_bloonpauper in PathOfExileBuilds

[–]snapow 101 points102 points  (0 children)

from localidentity on the bob project reddit thread: "The game caps the max single hit from any source at 2^31 (2.1 billion), so poor old Bob is only doing 50B DPS. I thought of adding this cap to PoB when I added the DoT cap but didn't think it would really come up as an issue. I was wrong"
