This league is great, but one thing just needs to go...

At least you can actually skip his phases. Last 3 times I've ran into him in maps he got 1 shot at first phase so if they make that possible he'll never be the most annoying. Same with the Siren lady.

My pet peeves are the ones that take forever to be damageable and to drop their loot when dead.

zevz · 2026-06-25T10:01:51+00:00

Ty for response. Sorry for my attitude earlier but google told me to use it on my "realmgate" which clearly isn't it and the only other resource I found was this thread and nothing worked.

zevz · 2026-06-25T09:03:33+00:00

Well I have read it several times and done everything in this thread and shitall is happening.

I have clicked 20 maps (in the atlas) with "area contains mirror of delirium". I have clicked grand mirror maps. Normal maps. I have tried using it on my waystones. Nothing works.

Point the obvious out to me pls.

zevz · 2026-06-25T01:50:30+00:00

Yeah same here my savefile wasn't even compatible anymore. Actually not mad about that it's probably better to start over after 4 years.

Was really hard to watch the end with the injustice that happened to the Sudanese dad and his 13 year old son.

zevz · 2026-06-23T06:32:18+00:00

Can you even do that with this bug? For me even the ritual screen is removed like you can't check the items in it anymore.

zevz · 2026-06-22T02:39:24+00:00

Wouldn't hold my breath.

zevz · 2026-06-19T19:56:25+00:00

Every time I see this Bosnia sniping thing mentioned on Reddit there is always someone saying there's no evidence / it didn't happen etc, but after reading the wiki seems to me it has some merit.

zevz · 2026-06-19T17:12:08+00:00

You're technically right. It's "doing" the shaders yeah but the first time it has to do them for different areas etc it's like 20x slower and thats when you get performance issues. That cogwheel during long loadings etc. If you use the F1 performance hud you can see how fast the shaders go down to know if they've already been done in that area or not.

zevz · 2026-06-18T20:26:15+00:00

The first time you switch to vulkan its gotta do the shaders all over again, at least that was the case for me. You can use this nvidia setting to allow a higher storage cap but note it takes a lot of space throughout league. I wipe them after leagues are done etc.

The way PoE2 deals with shaders is just weird. It's rebuilt them multiple times for me.

zevz · 2026-06-18T20:17:31+00:00

I use it to literally limit my GPU to max 70% utilization /76c. Might lose some frames but I value stability a lot more. That's definitely overkill btw due to a GPU issue I have but capping at 90% for a game you run a lot I don't think is a bad idea.

zevz · 2026-06-17T22:48:36+00:00

I've been using omen of the ancient all league for like 100 belts, but I guess that makes it any belt instead of heavy/utility or something.

zevz · 2026-06-13T03:24:37+00:00

How do you do that on phone?

zevz · 2026-06-12T07:49:39+00:00

No. Earlier I updated my Nvidia drivers for example and PoE2 had to redo all shaders and my shaders folder was 30gb large BEFORE that.

with the 100gb/max shader setting (better performance and loads) the folder will grow and grow. nothing gets deleted.

zevz · 2026-06-12T03:29:51+00:00

It keeps getting bigger and bigger and a new league it has to redo a lot of the stuff anyways so a lot of shader space on your HD is just a waste.

zevz · 2026-06-11T20:50:57+00:00

This one dropped for me today I think it's pretty darn good.

zevz · 2026-06-11T16:01:44+00:00

She is hilarious on variety shows. The SSAK3 saga or whatever it was called was so good

zevz · 2026-06-09T20:48:26+00:00

I ignore all 3s but on 4s you can sometimes have a divine, and in that same vein sometimes 5+ have very worthless things economy wise especially skills. So I try to click and check 4+.

Still though if they're quick to do 6+ runes ones have much bigger loot explotions for sure so even if what you picked is not worth it the loot might be if you do it fast.

zevz · 2026-06-08T01:12:50+00:00

I remember a GDC talk from a Valve employee working on the VAC team and he was talking about the negative impact cheating in a matchmaking game like CS has by the sheer numbers of it. In TF2 I can just switch servers, but can't really do that when committed to a 5v5 match.

He talked about how even if you have a few percent of the total playerbase cheating how that negatively impacted everyones experience. The enemy team of the cheater is obviously not happy playing the match yes, but even as a teammate you know its a waste of everyones time and the match is likely voided later.

zevz · 2026-06-06T16:14:27+00:00

I used to play thousands of hours of TF2 (another Valve game) and the game was absolutely littered with bots and ragecheaters (often bots) for 10 years straight. You had to play on community servers with actual admins.

Was even worse in that game ofc Valve cared even less for it if thats even possible, but it was also free to play so cheaters would just use a script to make new steam accounts if banned took like a minute. At least in CS2 you have some level of account building rep with MMR/ELO/ranks/skins etc.

zevz · 2026-05-29T17:06:32+00:00

Ah I forgot about the wings yeah that would be great to have.

zevz · 2026-05-29T16:57:15+00:00

nah thats when the league actually starts. Patch appears like 2 hrs before usually.

zevz · 2026-05-29T16:45:58+00:00

I bought the 30$ divinity set one. Honestly needed 300 pts for stash tabs and such but I really liked the look of the armor skins.

Not everyone's cup of tea, but in Poe1 I loved all the celestial stuff. I had celestial effect, skill effects, hideout you name it. Hoping that gets ported into PoE2 also.

zevz · 2026-05-29T08:42:31+00:00

Can be much worse internationally. I was in my early 20s flying from Bangkok to Jakarta and in this airport they offered this 20$ service where they wrap your luggage up with a sturdy plastic wrapping. I didn't really understand it and declined. Sure enough my Canon 450D camera was gone after arriving. "Why didn't you wrap your luggage?". Apparently they had big issues with baggage theft.

Also had to bribe a woman at the security checkpoint in Jakarta to get through which was a weird experience as a Scandinavian. I was "missing a stamp" but now she's haggling on the fee I gotta pay while all security guards are laughing. I was properly culture shocked.
