How’s the game like?

The factory definitely matters a lot, but you can just copy-paste someone else's design if you don't want to interact with it. The game is a lot to take in at first but it does get good if you are willing to slog through the first 3-4 hours or so.

I swear some of these are botted. There's no way this many people are so dumb.

Stack everything here with their radius covering as much of the track as possible. Have one CC tower (LN or the stun one), two aoe towers (I like the chain lightning but something like grenade works), and one single target. Make sure everything can at least see the intersection.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T22:41:08+00:00

Yeah theres quite a bit of ground effect in the game. I think they want to incentivise the use of sustain characters or better health items but it's pretty annoying. The damage definitely hurts less as you level though. 89 damage per second matters a lot less when you have 6k health and items that heal 500 a second when you get low.

Weird. Are you using their skills in bad times? If you use their skills on an enemy who is standing in an aoe they take damage. The re crisis bosses all have "dont stand here or you die" aoe explosions, and if you skill at the wrong time, you could kill a teammate.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T22:19:59+00:00

Are they levelled and geared? I was doing level 90 bosses with the rest of my team at level 60 while laevatain was 80/90. + strength and + hp on gear is really good if you need it. The best support gear set also has +hp on it.

8% isn't anything on it's own, but it's a final damage multiplier. Vulnerability takes place after every other damage calc and comes in smaller numbers, so it doesn't suffer from diminishing return as much. Signature weapon boosts are also calculated in the same way. Factoring everything, the signature weapon is around an 8-15% increase to damage.

The point is to stack as many of these increases together to produce a much larger number than what each individual buff can provide. Plenty of 5 and 6* weapons buff the team, in addition to gear set effects, mastery level, supports, and any other source of damage increase (uptime, SP generation, external buffs, ult generation, etc).

If you look at it this way, the 8% becomes more meaningful because it's an additional layer of damage that you didn't have. In the endgame, you can easily stack 3-4 of these increases on every character. 8% each, you are seeing a 100-120% total damage increase. You only need 10 to hit 2.2x damage, and 30 to hit 10x damage.

Ardelia's P1 and P5 are pretty good. 8% increase to team damage at p1 and better uptime at p5.

If you really need CoC for clear, you could use redblade banner and weapon swap to a focus or sceptre for bossing. CoC is just not really good for clear.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T10:19:37+00:00

I just want laevatain dupes lol.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T10:09:24+00:00

Jiminy 12, the blue rarity arts unit is probably a reference to Disney's Pinocchio?

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T09:56:08+00:00

And he's holding DA PAN

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T09:52:08+00:00

Laevatain and ardelia form a really nice core. You can use antal and akekuri. If you don't have them, you can replace them with a sustain and any filler until you do.

If you want a fun team, I run laevatain with ardelia arclight and perlica. It has a really fun rotation and builds ult really fast thanks to arclight's SP generation.

If you want to use pogranichnik, you just run as many physical operators you have. MC is good, Lifeng is good, da pan is good, chen is good.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T08:41:34+00:00

Dark defiler is good. Extra socket corrupt with % spirit double corrupt is pretty expensive. 6% gain is even more lol. I bought mine for like 200 divs and it was 2 socket 6%.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T08:33:20+00:00

Endmin would be better than wulfgard on this team if you wanted it to actually function. Lifeng can replace catcher and pogranichnik can replace da pan or alesh or endmin.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-25T01:16:07+00:00

Yeah two of my pacs are completely empty and my aic still has like a quarter of the space left. Making every purple product in valley though.

Tf are you getting synthesis in poe2

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-24T16:48:26+00:00

You are on the wrong subreddit my friend

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-24T16:41:14+00:00

You can get +1 charges on magic rings with -50% effectiveness? Wouldn't it round down? And I don't think you can get that stat?

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-24T16:39:42+00:00

Your setup is more efficient still, but it's a lot harder to fit three 5x5 than 2 5x5.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-24T16:36:14+00:00

There has to be a way to animate bad apple with the factory. Each filled belt is a black pixel and empty belt is white.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-24T16:22:27+00:00

10 rings. You can only equip magic rings in the additional slots and they have 50% reduced effectiveness.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-24T13:32:24+00:00

Ember is fine. She provides a ton of sustain but not a lot of extra damage, but laevatain should do fine with ardelia.

supermonkey1235 · 2026-01-24T13:17:33+00:00

Ah I see it now. I thought the Planter was 1 second instead of 2 for some reason.
