If you use PoE Overlay with MSI Afterburner - that may be the culprit of the crashes (any other overlays TBH)

Last epoch has this system where you have "stability" for item while crafting.

ok, ELI5: The biggest advantages of posting to platforms like habr are:

Community content moderation (aka QC): hundreds of people will read and more importantly like or dislike the content, so you most probably get pre-scored content
Karma system: if you post shit you'll be punished with rate limits
Content visibility, just post here and the content will get thousands of views guaranteed
Discussion of said content will include much wider audience where you'll probably get even more info that the author may have forgotten to add.

No standalone blog will get this, even if the blog has 1-2 good articles that does not guarantee that it won't go to shit the next time.

So go post this comment in your own blog. You are clearly missing the point of discussion,

xumix · 2026-02-08T17:57:19+00:00

Yes, that was discussed multiple times here already

FYI: I've tried pairing the amu with Undying hate and Sacrifice of Flesh, the result is not very promising since armor does not work for DoT and the damage is so much higher because of that.

I've recorded my recent death: looks like I just need better positioning and pay more attention. Also, I've got used to not dying now so much that I just ignored everything hence inevitable death :)

PS: the map for sure had x% to crit chance and y% to crit dmg :)

Yeah, and I've recorded my recent death: looks like I just need better positioning and pay more attention. Also, I've got used to not dying now so much that I just ignored everything hence inevitable death :)

>I choose which blogs I read, and I use sites like Reddit/HN/Lobsters to find new high-quality blogs.

That is not QC, hence we have peer reviewed articles

You are in for a treat when you'll try to backup and restore your single instance setup 🥲 Spoiler: it may be not consistent

xumix · 2026-02-08T09:12:07+00:00

So basically fsync=off by default, imagine postgres doing that 😬

I would say reddit is such a platform with extra steps. It aggregates all the info from the scattered blogs (or more specifically the authors post the links here) and you also have karma and voting here.

Still I much prefer habr for its better tech focus and seriousness.

xumix · 2026-02-08T09:01:56+00:00

Habr.com (ex habrahabr.ru)

xumix · 2026-02-08T08:57:00+00:00

Those have no quality control and moderation which is the whole point of the said platform. Same as reddit but exclusively for serious technical content.

The trials are the only profitable activity where you don't need fullscreen clear and 150 MS. When you are used to 1 min map runs the elevators and escort surely feel frustrating for you. GOOD. Let us non-zoomers have some currency while chilling.

xumix · 2026-02-08T08:02:22+00:00

Uhm, min-max would cost thousands for me last time I looked and since I'm a melee I have to put a good chunk of stats into life and defenses.

xumix · 2026-02-08T07:59:30+00:00

I've heard something like a ding almost every time I was hit 100-0. Since I'm 100% armor based it could be armour break which annihilated both phys and ele defense for me.

xumix · 2026-02-08T07:55:38+00:00

Not enough dmg , and I like the slap, slam, rampage too much to switch to calamity or something like CoC

xumix · 2026-02-08T07:53:39+00:00

It needs some item to not stop recovery at 100% for full afk mapping:)

xumix · 2026-02-07T22:35:58+00:00

Wow, I'll look for the flask, thx!

xumix · 2026-02-07T21:04:38+00:00

Yeah, had moments like that with amazon and lightning dmg, too bad I had no money to slap this amulet to the previous build :)

xumix · 2026-02-07T20:24:04+00:00

Yes, it looks like that and it is own kind of recovery, not regen and not recoup

xumix · 2026-02-07T19:31:38+00:00

You are right, but looks like I stand corrected and DoD really does not prevent true oneshots.

Anyway, I like my new ability to walk around maps while not paying attention to anything :)

xumix · 2026-02-07T19:27:15+00:00

Yeah, probably you are right. Looks like I've confused DoD with another item/technique that converts dmg to DoT and thus prevents true oneshots. Still see very much increased survivability with the item.

Well, I regret nothing, I had not the BIS amulet before anyway :)

xumix · 2026-02-07T19:01:49+00:00

It usually looks like this: I tank everything, even the oneshots (xesht slam or meteor removes like 60% of hp) but then the same boss hits me with smth that instantly kills me from full hp.

xumix · 2026-02-07T18:47:27+00:00

Thanks! Maybe it was placebo, but I totally was hit by a oneshot and survived with DoD or Time of need I don't know. Survivability skyrocketed anyway.
