Do they E V E R learn?

>keeping essence but nerfing the good stuff
Why even bother?

Roll your 1007 chests while you still can.

They're probably going to add a new tab type specific to just Essences. I'll buy one.

goober

Any of you guys selling shaper kills? I'm on HC Essence.

The difference here is that your arm will lay in between so its locked giving you only wrist motion and your hand won't be so elevated like in what you posted so it seems a little more conformable

>We are reducing the Decay damage from Essence of Delirium. This will be retroactive, as it will affect all instances of Decay.
Not if I use it now motherfucker

this league wont be nearly as good as essence
and that is considering essence on its own was pretty shit "alch v2" ez babby mode
we need CHALLENGE leagues
i want to be CHALLENGED
whats the fucking point

I'll play if they buff life builds

otherwise no ty

your move, ggg shills

damn, poe is really gonna regret not having you two around!!

we count for over 50% of the elite players after all

take a hike, shitter

this general has no elite players anymore. it's time to stop pretending and face reality

>not having 10k life

ummm first of all poeg is home of elite HC players

it used to be

best reason to get excited about any league: fresh economy

still is

we just don't post here much anymore because shitcrows and ethnic redditors came

"we" don't post here much anymore because "we" don't come to the threads

"we" don't even play the game anymore

tell me why should anyone even bother with this league
no tree changes
probably only some minor nerfs to vinktar/bv and useless melee "shift to target enemies in arc instead of straight ahead of you" quality of life impovement.
no gameplay changing league mechanic, same "more loot" shit

it will feature all the same builds:
ed+contagion: check
flameblast variations: check
EQ:Check
LA, Exp. A: Check
Ignite vortex: Check
BV if it doesnt change: Check

Also now featuring scorching ray totem on every build that does fire damage in any form, waow

BF will be the only new skill worth trying out, so enjoy running #951589 BF Assassin/Slayer/PF which will take 70% share of all the played builds, as GGG wont gut their only marketable skill they just released

WE AINT FINNA DO NUTHIN

>mom look i learned about poe.trade, im so gud at poe now

the world will keep spinning without you

if you don't want to play it, then don't. your choice

Fuck this they just clutter up inventory

nice topic dodge
youd make a great politician

i don't care about your stupid little argument

you must've felt so smart typing all of that up though. sorry for raining on your parade

hahah, right on! show em gurl!!

>daddy please fuck me hard in the ass like you did last time yesss

im not even american and i actually cheered for trump

What links for blade flurry for a voidheart resolute technique slayer?

Crit seems the way to go but this is the build that I wanted to try. So far I got BF - Faster Attacks - Inc Aoe/Conc Effect - Melee Physical Damage - Added Chaos Damage.

I'm unsure about the 6th link, I was using melee damage at full life because I have constant leech, but after using Blood Rage my health is constantly flickering at full so I'm pretty sure melee damage at full life would be useless.

>Essence of Woe now gives slightly lower values of flat energy shield, % increased energy shield, and spell damage on the higher level brackets of the essence.
LEGACY ES ITEMS

Void manip for shits and giggles and murderpoison. Crit multi if you're boring as shit.

as dominating blow with a 30-50 minions at a time, do i want minion attack speed or minion damage, and at what ratio?

resolute technique so I can't use crit multi, my choices would be a lot simpler if I could just use crit multi and crit chance

>playing BF without crit
kill yourself, senpai.

I'm new. Is Shadow/Assassin damage over time w. bows viable?

it was a respec that was made day one before I could copy mathil like everyone else :^)

just do it with scourge and get minion nodes instead of melee nodes

just fucking spec into the godlike crit nodes right next to RT dumbshit

Expensive

thats what im doing

but i'm starting to think that minion atk speed > damage for dominating blow in which case i may reroll soultaker

Are you bottom-left on the tree or do you go towards shadow? You're probably not getting many stats that actually double dip if you don't go towards shadow, so I question even going Voidheart and poison. EQ gets away with it because of the duration tag.

I went Hatred and Herald of Ash on my RT blade flurry character. Clears quickly and costs pretty much nothing.

>i need to be told by a popular streamer that crit is the way to go for BF

does it use daggers?
is it a lesser melee skill?
then go crit, like, it's basic rpg

are you able to farm end game with dominating blow

if so post build

no i just switched over to this build last night

i can run t10 maps if the boss is favorable otherwise it's a no go

but i'm basically using gear that i've tossed together and haven't tested much yet so i have hope that i can put this thing over the top

>last week of the league
>suddenly build enabling uniques dropping like candy

Why not rapid decay? Works for both the poison and bleed? Or Added Fire is always solid.

I have fond memories of every past hc challenge league
There's no reason for this trend to stop

>"""""""""""""""challenge""""""""""""""" league

>Essences of Delirium are going to be worth 5ex each
the rich win again
while the poor wallow in misery with their shit 20c totem build

>Pass user since 2016

>paying 5ex for one chance to roll one item for a nerfed build

yeah sure sounds like they are """"winning""""

>2016babby

Decay straight up bumped ED's single target from B- to A+

the difference between a non decay ED build and a decay one is night and day

anyone mapping at any level can find a delirium and sell it

unless you're talking about perm leagues, where the rich always get richer regardless

Changes are going to be retroactive.
Use them now, or lose them for ever

Im bored post anime

that sounds tempting but I'd rather have 100% accuracy than no accuracy and mediocre crit.

that's like saying anyone playing in any area level in merciless can find exalted orbs

people who clear faster and at higher level are always going to benefit from something valuable getting 6 times as rare because their options are more varied if they find one:

sell it
use it
hoard it

>higher level

unless they change the way essences work, you could literally burn through white jungle valleys on a 20c budget speed build farming essences. scorn/misery etc have no higher chance to appear in maze of minotaur than jungle valley.

what is your point

in a podcast one of the designers said something about higher tier essences like score/envy being more common than they usually would

wrong

source proving otherwise? I'm curious

do you want to be friends

Doubles the time compared to what?

phew, 84/84

dunno if i have any autism left for this game lel jk see you in breach

do you want to be friends

what kind of buffs should i be running as a curse caster? mostly essence drain and contagion

what kind of buffs would benefit a damage over time build?
can't you think by yourself?

>people thinking decay will be good after it gets nerfed
>the nerf is retroactive so it hits your current gear
TOP
KEK

perhaps some kind of max block comk SRS build with it. could go necromancer and use bone offering with mistress of sacrifice

i'm not sure how you'd actually kill shit though. reckoning would be a good idea.

probably would struggle in t10+ just like all melee builds because ggg can't into balance

great post

unless they literally halve the damage or something, it's still going to be better than poison, moreover the power of the mod goes beyond the damage but also the fact it applies a DoT for ten seconds

...

this being my first league, I've made it through all of the maps except the Guardians, haven't had them drop yet.
I'm pretty sure I won't be able to beat them with my gear, but I really want to try. Since I have to buy the maps, I have to decide with which I want to start

First response ending in 6 decides.

What build are you? Different ones are easier for different builds?
