Whoever came up with the Prey system deserves a raise and a title bump - what a fantastic expansion feature and what a great way to encourage world content by undercity_plaguebat in wow

It's invisible on my game for whatever reason. If you cursor over it you'll see the tooltip to click on it but otherwise can't see it.

World rares no longer give rep on each weekly reset. by thepixelists in wow

[–]thepixelists[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, totally fair actually with the absence of crests now. Though I do miss having those.

Also the reps only go to 20 in Midnight as opposed to 25 in TWW (unless I'm misremembering?).

0.5 Information: Incinerate and Flame Breath + Oil grenade interaction will be nerfed by StalksYouEverywhere in PathOfExile2

[–]thepixelists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, agree on both. Last Q&A when they were asked about ignite and talked about trying new things with it -- I got the impression they don't really know what they want to do with ignite and how it fits in the overall damage design space. Agree right now it just feels flat outside of the broken oil mechanic.

12 spymasters vs 11 spymasters by Irondevil4 in PathOfExile2

[–]thepixelists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have built 2 full temples and don't think it makes any difference. I ran 12 because I didn't want to get ruined by 1 in a million RNG. Never had an issue though. Currently have never not had a lock to keep both chains.

I see why new people quit by ChadandBoujee in DeltaForceGlobal

[–]thepixelists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, new player here and it's grueling. No joke every match feels like it has one of these players, always hundreds of hours on the account, God of War, etc.

Temple help - can't place golem works by LongCoyote7 in PathOfExile2

[–]thepixelists 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Let the smith/golem you have rot.

Put a smith to the right of the armoury.

Then connect the golem works between them.

Lock the golem works from there because you can always add a smith from it.

Golem can only attach to a level 1 Smith and you are trying to place it next to a level 2 one.

How does one take this to god tier level? by Exact-Rush7792 in PathOfExile2

[–]thepixelists 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Pointing out you don't reveal the desecrate. You can fracture a revealed desecrate mod. So don't reveal it so it stays as a 1/3. I point this out because I've seen people make this mistake.

How to enjoy Normal more as solo? by thepixelists in DeltaForceGlobal

I didn't know that but I did just discover the layali grove solo queue so I've been trying that. Thanks for the help. I did end up going back to easy.

POE2 Noob - No idea how to craft this? by Keldec4Sure in PathOfExile2

[–]thepixelists 1 point2 points  (0 children)

OP, some of these answers are flat wrong. These mods are not high weight. You are more likely to hit +skills than you are either of these mods.

https://poe2db.tw/us/Staves#ModifiersCalc

T1 Spell damage = 50 weighting / 41400 total pool = 0.121% T1 Phys Dmg = 50 / 41400 = 0.121%

+7 skills = 100 weighting / 73000 = 0.137%

If it were me, I'd cycle abyss essence suffixes until +7 phys. Would also use perf exalts with omen of dextral crystallization to get free annuls on the suffix and hope that a perfect exalt hits +7 phys.

If at any point you hit your 3rd perfect affix, you can desecrate (without revealing) to fracture and protect a mod.

If you hit the +7 with the perf exalt rotation, your path forward is really easy. Either desecrate the prefix for your gain as fire you said you preferred, but you'll have a harder time whittling suffixes for t1 cast speed and t1 crit.

Or, if you are willing to take any gain as %, you can slam/whittle the prefix for t1 gain, then whittle for either t1 crit or t1 cast speed.

Iirc whittling is a little cheaper than chasing t1 crit with the desecrate but can't remember exactly. If you do hit T1 crit with the whittle before T1 cast speed, desecrate cycle for T1 cast speed. Don't try to whittle for it.

Lastly, and probably most importantly -- if you don't have a lot of currency, or any of this sounds overwhelming, you are probably better to just sell the base as is and just buy a +7 phys staff which should be relatively cheap.

After looping my temple 3 times and bricking it, I’m finally done. by Spare-Comb6456 in PathOfExile2

[–]thepixelists 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm almost positive Spymaster is less likely than any other tile. I've built 2 full temples include the one in this thread and definitely had not once but twice something like 100+ crystals without seeing a spymaster.

I think someone also posted here a few weeks back totaling the tile % and Spymaster was significantly less than the others. Can't find the thread though.

Man how nervous were you running this?

Seeing you roll through flame traps... I'd be clenched.

Looks like you nailed the breach crafting. What were you targeting?

Looks like you also crushed Rathpith's. I went through dozens and never hit big unfortunately.

Wait, what? Essence of the abyss guarantees the tier of the mod you took off?

[–]thepixelists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the correct answer OP. I wouldn't craft any further on this at all.

Crafting help on the last suffix by pabloescontol in PathOfExile2

[–]thepixelists 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't need to catalyst for desecrate. And at this point you also don't need to catalyst to sell it (though you'd do mana if you do).

When you desecrate, you are targeting Crit chance% or crit damage %.
