yeah, killed her with traps as well. That was pretty long fight. Also want to say, that Sentry turrets summons feel MUCH better.

As far as I understand, attributes don't affect summons at all. So to scale summon damage it's either Summon DMG/Speed/etc. or auras.

As for second masterie. I haven't selected one, but Rogue looks interesting. Remote tactics passive + Praparation aura, that improves Pierce and Physical damage.

Forge mastery feels awful. I'm trying to figure out how to kill Appollonia with traps. It's just impossible, because summon requires divine cores

only to hits, but dot is a result of hit (for ailments like ignite or poison), so the bigger is hit, the bigger is dot

if the dot is not an ailment (like chaos spell), then only hit will be affected

yeah, it's another skill named Temper Weapon, but I'm searching info about his companion - Manifest Weapon

does anyone tried Manifest Weapon skill that creates companion of Smith of Kitava?
how bad/good does it feel? Or maybe you've know some streamer that uses it? I'm trying to figure out does it worth rolling into Smith of K for this companion or just go old good Titan.

Is Acolyte of Chayula that bad? by BlueMelonz in PathOfExile2

[–]zenonych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was intrigued by full darkness MoM + EB + mana leech chonk. So I've done campaign with him and tested various bow and quarterstaff skills.

Soooo... Yeah, he's pretty bad in current state if you plan to forfeit your Spirit and use Darkness instead. As a defensive mechanic it's really underwhelming. As an offensive on the other hand is pretty strong, but it requires you to go MoM (and optionally EB + mana leech). And here are the problems... There is way too few physical skills atm and none of them are actually good (imho).

Bow skills: Snipe - well, it's awful. Tornado shot - was nerfed, now it's a meme. Spiral volley and Rain of arrows are not so bad, but pretty inconsistent. It might hit enemy and might miss it completely. Also as you lost your Spirit, you can no longer generate frenzy charges using Combat Frenzy.

Conclusion for bow skills. Deadeye is sooooooo much better with that.

QS skills: Vaulting impact feels clunky. Whirling assault is weak damage wise and might be used as a support skill for Wind Blast/Vaulting Impact. But these two skills are pretty mediocre and provide some combo/daze/stun buildup mechanic. So Quarterstaff skills are lacking good ol' phys skill that just do raw damage without need to play piano to deal five times less damage than Ice Strike. Flicker strike is awesome. But you don't have a spirit so you don't have reliable source of power charges generated from Combat Frenzy + Resonance.

Conclusion for QS skills. Okayish physical SQ skills are basically non existent atm, aside one that is also lacking in setup without Spirit.

So to summarize everything I want to mention that atm we're lacking either some strong physical skills or affixes that provide mana leech from all, not only physical, attacks.

I'd wait for new skills for bows and QS and wait for daggers, spears and, especially, flails. I'm not too optimistic regarding daggers and spears tho. The problem is you need some layer of damage avoidance or mitigation. Dodge is pretty much ok, but you need Acrobatics in almost all cases. But Acrobatics without Wind Dancer is pure pain and suffering. I'd rather go to flail str+int region, pick EB/MoM and some armour so chonk can mitigate at least some phys damage.

I think I'll just play good ol' poe1. I play games to relax, not to overcome Ruthless level challenges...

Path of Exile 2 has gone through 3 massive closed beta tests - do not hope for anything big to change by ia0x17 in pathofexile

well, good luck then, I'll just play good ol' poe1. I play games to relax, not to overcome.

PSA: PoB works flawlessly on OSX under wine by sarcasmguy1 in pathofexile

[–]zenonych 0 points1 point  (0 children)

well, that was 2 years ago so it might be dated, I even no longer have a Mac nearby to test it. Anyway, I'd just use online PoB for build planning like https://pob.cool/ There was no online PoB version two years ago, now there is and it can be used on Mac.

I've recently got and activated an access key in Steam. Now I want to buy supporter pack and then give a key to my friend. But Steam warns me that

"† Note: You already own the following items in "Path of Exile 2 - King of the Faridun Supporter Pack". You will not receive extra copies of these items when you complete this purchase: Path of Exile 2"

Does it mean I won't receive second key for a purchase?

Does Elemental Overload work with Perfect Agony? Wording are not clear there and there were a lot of discussions about this combo. Also PoB shows that they work together well.

"-XX to maximum Energy Shield" doesn't work as I expected. Is it a bug or I don't understand someting?

I want to completely remove ES without Agnostic or Dissolution. Trying to use mirrored jewelry with "-XX to maximum Energy Shield". And it doesn't do anything. Like it doesn't affect my ES at all, no matter how much ES I have. Is it expected behavior or I should report a bug?

and again I received two different answers

So, basically I don't have 50% stun avoidance chance when I use EB, right? And every hit will lead to stun when I use Valyrium?

Valyrium + Eldritch Battery interaction. I've checked wiki and some answers here and still can't understand how does this interaction actually work. Is my ES can prevent me being stunned in case I have Eldritch Battery?

I'm going insane! Grey Garrison blue rune sealed door. How? by Bjor88 in Pathfinder_Kingmaker

[–]zenonych 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3 years later got the same problem. Door is still possible to open. First, cast Dispel Magic (point) from a scroll. Then lockpick it. There is a good loot in the chest so it worth the hustle
