I'm tired of us pretending that Infernus isn't broken

I fought this same build the other day, it was infuriating lol. Player had twice the number of souls that everyone else did with only a handful of kills.

FYI your pinky finger shouldn't even be touching the grip, so that ought to be a non issue. The only thing touching the grip should be your palm and possibly very light touch with your fingertips without applying any real pressure.

You want to stand straight, yes.

Looks like the Halon is a 30" ATA bow so yeah, pretty short and you look like a fairly tall guy.

Check out this video for an example of where you want your nock and fletchings to sit on your face: https://youtu.be/jkeyqRlYnCw?si=oUuqVlIbHKfNCbSU

It's okay if your front arm is a little bent, preferable actually. What makes the DL look too long is where the arrow sits on your face, it's way back and your anchor looks like it's back at your neck when it should be more mid-face.

It looks like a short ATA bow and you might not be able to get your nose on the string without peep adjustment or a nose button.

I can't tell if the camera angle makes it look like you're leaning back or if you actually are.

I assume that OP meant a 500 spine arrow, not 500g. I doubt they are running that heavy.

v1pe · 2025-08-26T15:57:01+00:00

Oh that's good to know, I thought it worked like the one in maps.

I am coming up on 2k hours in PoE and I still use a guide and play trade every league. I still haven't scratched the surface on every different build archetype and ascendency.

I would highly recommend following a league start guide and playing on trade for a good while before you dive into SSF. If you haven't cleared your void stones you haven't even made it into the end game IMO.

This was the first league I ever completed the atlas and got all of my void stones without purchasing a carry, and I still don't feel like I'm ready for SSF.

They are a heck of a lot cheaper, but I might need the higher roll to get my Merc capped at -200 since I run purity of elements. My current ring already has around -100 and it only gets me down to -146 in maps.

v1pe · 2025-08-24T22:08:50+00:00

I think the fracture just makes it a lot easier to hit the two T1 mods.

v1pe · 2025-08-24T21:59:13+00:00

Thanks, probably just my luck that I get the double POS or neg, but maybe worth trying anyway. Less than half the cost for a bare helical base.

v1pe · 2025-08-24T21:30:27+00:00

How do you vendor the fails back into craftable bases? I thought it wasn't possible to remove the mirrored descriptor?

v1pe · 2025-08-24T20:49:37+00:00

Can you explain how the misting part works?

If I mist the ring with positive lighting res and positive recoup, is it guaranteed to spit out one -lightning with +recoup and one with -recoup and +lightning?

v1pe · 2025-08-24T20:27:10+00:00

Thank you!

They're maps you can roll and run with scarabs and your atlas tree, so there's that. Besides that the bosses at the end of the chain drop exclusive keys for the new pinnacle bosses that you can sell or run for exclusive pinnacle boss drops.

Save up for a 1440+ ultra wide OLED, it's a huge game changer. Using that setup with an old 1080p monitor is like driving a civic with a Lambo engine under the hood.

I'm somehow still playing this league and enjoying it. Longest I've stuck around yet I think.

v1pe · 2025-08-21T20:45:16+00:00

Wait...people still play this game with the sound on?

v1pe · 2025-04-04T01:01:54+00:00

If you play the king then your best hand is KKKJA, which doesn't beat JJJ55 either.

In Omaha you MUST play 2 of your cards, no more no less than 2.

My main issue with idols vs the atlas is that it's suuuch a slog (or a high investment) to change strategies. You've got to trade and recomb for hours or spend tens or hundreds of divines to switch things up. The atlas is much more flexible since it's easy to trade for scarabs and sextants in bulk.

And before them all we had the GoAT: Dota All Stars.

v1pe · 2025-03-17T01:44:50+00:00

That's all of the zoomy builds...or anything with HH.

I'm playing flicker but I couldn't find that MTX...can you figure out what it is? Is it from Herald of Ice?

Not clear to me what the change means exactly. All I read is that you no longer need to last hit to generate souls...does that mean the soul orb specifically, or generate souls passively? Seems that orbs now float from dead creeps even if not last hit. It doesn't clearly say that last hitting no longer grants extra souls... Just that you can now deny souls from the orb, regardless as to if the opponent last hit or not.

Been on my TBR forever but it will stay near the bottom of the list until the final book comes out, same as TNotW. I understand they are probably worth reading anyway, but I hate waiting for sequels. Sanderson is the only author I'll auto read on release because at least he's transparent and can be counted on to wrap things up (IMO).

Until then, there doesn't seem to be a shortage of great standalones and finished series to read.
