Rf fashion request

Hi guys i have bit of a weird request,im a huge rf enjoyer pretty much league start it every league and push it as far as i can,this league went into a double elevated crown with essence and a double level and dot multi focused.

Soo after being stingy for soo long i plan to make a cool RF cosmetic setup to rock it all the league starts,if possible using maven armours since i like the float but not mandatory,also maybe using a different rf skin.

I know its a strange request but i would greatly appreciate any help or suggestions

Advice for a blind playthrough as a newcomer

Most of the times when playing ARPGs I follow leveling guides. However this playstyle started to feel very dull, since there is little to no mental challenge involved. I just recently picked up PoE and wanted to try going blind for my first char.

I was thinking about picking up a class that appeal the most without a particular build in mind. I would them slowly experiment with the skills and support gems while adapting/respeccing my build as I progress the game.

My intent is to understand the game as I play it and do meaningful decisions as I struggle through the campaign and maps (if I ever get there).

I know PoE is maybe the most complex ARPG out there and there is some chance I will struggle a lot. Nevertheless I want to try it. saying that I do not intend to be hammering my head against a brick wall needless. I would like some advice/tips on the best way moving forward. Also, Is there any particular guides that explain the overall game systems and how to interact with them?

What do you guys think. is this viable at all or I will be just frustrating myself if trying to play like this?

Hey guys,

Due to life circumstances I’m league starting after it’s already basically a dead league.

What have been your favorite builds thus far?

Tips for the league mechanic?

Best league starter you found?

TIL that Peter Jackson’s Digital Visual Effects Studio Wētā FX is named after the New Zealand Wētā, a native species of giant flightless cricket. Wētā FX even created a giant Wētā, the Wētā-Rex, for Jackson’s King Kong (2005).

Juiced Breach: How much juice are you using and what have you done to speed up?

After doing a ton of other things this league I figured I have to try juiced breach before PoE2 .5 drops. I build up a "budget" (lol) BV Elementalist using fub's model.

I have two questions for the community: what is your juicing strategy and what have you done to improve your map turnover?

Juice

__________________________________________________

As far as I can tell, here are the main juicing decisions:

T16 8 mod vs. T16.5 140+ currency (Cost: \~200c)

Cheap deli orbs vs. currency orbs (Cost: \~15c per 20% deli)

Risk vs. no-Risk (Cost: \~60c)

Bloodlines vs. no-Bloodlines (Cost: \~400c)

Full empowered mirage (Cost: \~3 div)


So the bare minimum cost is likely something like 160c-195c for 8 mod T16 with astrolabe and 60-80% cheap deli.

I'd imagine the order of operations in adding juice is something like: Risk, T16.5, good deli, Bloodlines, full mirage.

So minimum plus risk: 220-255c

add T16.5: 420-455c

Add currency deli (lets assume 80% from this point): 515c (I think this is probably medium juice)

Add bloodlines: \~2.25 div (high juice)

Add full empowered mirage: \~5.25 div (full juice)


What are you guys using? If you change your amount of juice based on astrolabe progress what are your minimum bonuses to trigger the next level of juice? Do you always end an astrolabe with full empowered mirage or only if certain bonuses are present?



Speed

_________________________________________________

Even though my movement and clear speed is insane, I find that it still takes longer than I'd expect to clear these maps.

What have you all tried to speed up your clear?

Do you bother rushing the boss? Do you full clear the map for altars before starting any breaches or do you just clear as you go?

Do you overlap breaches or clear them one at a time? Before I went BV overlap was obviously better, but I'm noticing sometimes I miss the full clear with BV because I'll offscreen the rare pack from one breach while working on stabilizing the next one. I still figure that overlapping as much as possible is probably worthwhile for the beyond density but would be curious if any of you have a different take.

Mirage Softcore Double Build Giveaway!

Hey y'all, I haven't played in a couple of weeks and saw a post today about people starting the league late, so I figured I might as well give away my stuff rather than letting it collect dust.

I've put in about 700-800 divines in each build, they are both very comfy builds, fairly tanky, and can do pretty much all endgame content and juiced content up to a point, despite being pretty scuffed still (I'm lazy) with lots of room for improvement.

Build 1:

Strength Stack Juggernaut Heavy Strike Of Trarthus

Pretty much followed Conner converse's build, the next upgrade would probably be a Cold & Lightning damage taken as Fire sublime vision (very expensive last I checked), that will free up the belt slot so you can get a lot more damage with a proper strength belt.

Build 2:

Forbidden Shako Slayer Flicker Strike

I was about to buy the +1 max frenzy ring from a mirror shop for this build, but lost interest halfway. Also I think this build currently doesn't have enough mana leech as the flicker will occasionally just stop, or rather it's attacking too quickly for the leech to keep up lol, so that's something you will have to fix, but you won't feel it unless you do very hard content.

Anyways, I'm not doing a raffle, to enter, just leave a comment letting me know what you plan to do with the build (please specify which one) you want or why I should gift it to you; anything will do. I will pick 2 winners in about 24 hours. I'm chronically online so if you do win I'll make sure you receive the build.

Also, both build will come with about 500 divines in raw currency for you to mess about with, but please only enter if you genuinely plan to play the game. I gave away a build earlier in the league and they didn't play at all! Good luck everyone!

Gem imbues for standard

What imbues are you working on for standard?

I got ice spear w/ power charge on crit and freezing pulse w/ culling strike for my std wardlooper.

Some aura w/ AoE for aurabot (I got Purity of Elements)

Spark w/ pinpoint (for overloaded intensity)


Frostbolt w/ either greater volley or gmp, for ice nova builds

Support Animate guardians w/ either elemental army/ minion life/ meat shield

I'm going to be chasing cyclone w/ power charge on crit ( for CoC Ice Nova) and flicker w/ endurance charge.


What other imbues are you going for?

Just finished my first 40 challenges! Most bangerest league of all time?

Behold! Yet Another GGG Appreciation Post

Just wanted to celebrate with my fellow exiles - I started as a casual player back in delve league playing chieftain cyclone with Ngamahu's Flame, skipped a few leagues here and there but kept learning a little more and pushing a little farther each time.

Finally this league it all clicked, and I took a deadeye to 39 challenges, then rolled a flamewood totem inquisitor to finish the uber kills haha

Anyways I know it's not that big of a deal to a lot of the people around here who have like 20 maxed out totems, but this is my first and I will cherish it. it'll look great next to my new atziri statue :)

see some of you in poe2 in 3 weeks, and the rest of you in 3.29 !!

New PS+ Bundles

Does anyone know how I can claim the new ps+ bundles? Yesterday they released 3 new bundles. Bundle 19, 20 and 23. weird that they skipped 21 and 22.

You can only see them through the PoE 1 client but can’t claim them.
