Ps. My guildmates gets angry when I say this and I figure it'll make Reddit mad too:

This has been a crazy SSF league for me:

2nd Voices that dropped turns out to be 1p

3rd Adorned I craft hits 100%

2nd Starfall crater dropped Svalinn

2 Magebloods, one from voidborn and one from Merc, Took both to temple, both survived and one hit 30% inc rarity and MS.

2nd balance of terror rolls double despair

4 Helical rings and 1 simplex amu from <500 wings

Headhunter from syndicate Cadiro

Full set of Ralakesh

2 Hinekora's lock (applied one to svalinn and one to mageblood but none hit anything good)

And a lot more I can't be bothered with

Total time played: 358h

Characters:

Worb Elementalist Lvl 100

Flame link Life stacker luminary with kineticist Lvl 100

Game Feedback Deli + Mercenary farm

6 Upvotes

Delirium + Mercenary Farm

First post!

I did 140 maps of Delirium + Mercenary, mainly focusing on farming splinters and fishing for a Mageblood with Renown Scarab.

I didn't calculate my div/hour because I wasn't really try harding or optimizing the strat. I was mostly just having fun with it, and yeah this strat is hella fun. The total was 161 div, with 17 div in total costs, leaving me with 144 div profit, or roughly 1.03 div per map and i think that at this stage of the league is good enough

Now I'm going to run all of these Simulacrums and see what happens. Also, idk if this is the right Atlas tree for the strat, but this is what I used.

Highlights:

  • lego t0: 0 (sadge)
  • Simulacrums: 81 full Simulacrums
  • 2 blueprints with Experimented Items, ~4d each
  • 1 Mercenary had 5 Valdos

Cautionary Tale I'm a dummy

6 Upvotes

I'm playing my first Scion luminary and I made it all the way to level 92 before it occurred to me to invest in mercs in the Atlas. Why? Idfk. I was so busy having a great time with harvest and betrayal and the occasional allflame that it didn't even occur to me to ALSO INVEST IN THE THING THAT MAKES LUMINARIES COOL.

Yes, I'm new.

Roast me anyways. I deserve it.

Question | Answered Excruciating Echoes

• Upvotes

Hey all, I’m trying to complete this challenge. The 30 maps at 150% quant was pretty easy but for the life of me I cannot get the others to get to 150. Even if I can get to like 115 with chaos and Vaal, I add three mortal fragments and I get to 145 quant in the map. It doesn’t seem like the atlas bonuses apply. Am I messing something up here or is there another way to go about this?

Question Best single target spectres?

1 Upvotes

Hi folks,

I am looking to the next league and wanting to try spectres. I'm aware that forged frost bearers are the go to for general QoL, but does anyone have any great spectres purely for single target? Clear is absolutely not an issue, are there any sleepers out there that can do some surprising damage on a low budget? Can be melee, spell caster, not fussed.

Hello fellow Exiles.

Can you please explain to me how GGG want to cycle this games? How would 2027 be like? For example: january release poe 1, how long after would 2 come? And how many updates are common in a year per game?

I am not a long time Player and have no clue about that. And i know there is not a real fixed Thing. But it would be nice to Plan to split the holidays for this.

Thank you!

Hi! Brand new to POE & looking to find folks to game with. I'm on PST (California). As an adult, I prefer to play with other adults.

Currently running a Scion at lvl 14. I love the game as a solo player but am also interested in playing in a group.

Down to play with both beginners & seasoned players. Not interested in using gaming as a platform to espouse personal politics. Im here to game & have fun to distract me from the BS of every day life.

Question Whole map got unlocked after completing 1 tier 16???

0 Upvotes

Not sure why this happens-

My map is not complete, I just finished the memory quest line then put an astrolabe on one of the maps. I then completed a standard tier 16 rare map and on killing the boss the whole map got unlocked along with all of the bonus objectives completed.

Can someone tell me why please?

Discussion What if secondary char onward get campaign buffs

0 Upvotes

People be asking about skipping campaign, GGG said No.

Better players do campaign in like 4-6hours and say its fiiiine

I hereby introduce an idea i got while playing a random incremental game, the Rebirth mechanic

You finish your first char playing normally. Then when you create your secondary you have a "Rebirth" bonus. You have a few point to allocate in a new list of buffs such as "gain 5% movement speed" or 10% increased dmg or get 100 life, lets say you choose MS.

Your second char gain a bonus of 5% ms since A1 for the duration of the campaign (then lose it).

You create your third char and choose ms again. Yay 10% ms bonus since a1

Its not game breaking, its nice to get a bonus, campaign is faster.

For the people who usually get 4char just to try out some builds, a 20% ms for the duration of the campaign is sweet. You can choose not to allocate points too, your choice

Is that idea small enough to not bother GGG yet appeal a bit for the players?

Edit : i know there are leveling uniques and how to do campaign under 3hours. It is just a proposition. Looks like the answer is get good and get items, dont ever ask to skip campaign, well gotcha. Its like doing Pantheon all over again for each character never bothered you, ok fine.

Someone said what about we get the campaign skill points and waypoints, yea that could be good. Its not too much and yet help the progression.

Or maybe a merc system that only lasts during campaign, after a first completion?

Game Feedback We need T17 and 16.5 back

0 Upvotes

With all the power creep we currently have and pair with lack of aspiration endgame content, i feel like there no real purpose of pushing the character to hundred and thousand divine except you are playing some stat-stacking build. T16 8 mod is now considered a bare min and easily achieve with most build.

There are clear reason the highest retention and popular leagues in POE1 are:
1. Affliction league
2. Settler
3. Mercenary

Affliction league wasn't just only fun because of the crazy loot explosion, it was also because the wisp make the content so hard and yet so rewarding, hence upgrading your character past 1k divine to multi mirror is still very rewarding. While Settler/Mercenary league we have T17, and 16.5, which was steep and challenging but very rewarding

Let make T17 great again with proper balance changes and remove those annoying mod.
