How is SRS currently? Leveling, end game viability? Does it work as a league starter or do I need some +3 staff and level 4 empower to see results?

I'm going Warchief Totems or Juggernaut EQ, definitely the former if patch notes allow.
Hunter Cooper
good for leveling, viable for endgame, and performs somewhat well with relatively budget gear, and now getting a 5l +2 is trivial, and with that staff you can pretty much do anything up to t10 relatively easily. Last league early in league it was popular as raiz was playing it, he was playing a CI version of the build that also got popular, since with essences you can craft a +3 bow, and you can do it on a crude bow which has very low stat requirements so it's easy to roll (you can get a proper ilvl base by vendoring 5 bricked rare silver branch), and a bow allows you to use a quiver with it, so it will always be better than a staff (the only downside is not being able to roll cast speed I think). Obviously, the best choice for it is necromancer, there aren't any other ascendancies that offer anything as good as necro
Eli Watson
It's fine for leveling, but link Melee Splash the second you get to the Prison.
Ayden Price
so how hard will blade vortex get nerfed

Scorching ray inquisitor, what do you guys think? in the few videos i've seen it seems to be clearing trash extremely fast and does decent on bosses

Best way to play Lacerate in HC without ripping and having acceptable offense?
Hege's WoE Slayer looks like it's okay for that purpose since you have another 6l for Cleave on bosses
I have no idea how hege got as much damage as he did on his WoE build. Once I hit t12+ I had to ditch wings and go soultaker+dps axe. That setup did a ton of damage but wasn't super tanky. Also dropped the voidheart at that point as it didn't seem to be doing much for damage.
Alexander Morgan
Heart of Flame doesn't seem really good for SR, seeing as the penetration is useless and you get only 71% damage for 6 points. For those 6 points you could get Fire Walker -> Occultist's Dominion (60% damage, 15% fire res, 4% cast speed for 5 points) and have another point left for Sanctity which seems like a waste to skip.
Moreover, Blood Drinker + Shadow frenzy seems kinda... weird? For those 8 points, I'd rather pick Snowforged (43% damage for 3 points), Scion's jewel (0.7% regen, 7% life, potentially 10-20% damage for 3 points) and Nullification (5% life, 8% all res for 2 points). You lose 8% life and 1 frenzy but gain ~55-65% damage and some life regen.
Overall I think this'd make you tankier with the equivalent of +13% all res, +1.7% life regen and some ~50% damage increase at the loss of 8% life and a frenzy.

What's a good Co-op build to play with wife?
I played POE a lot back 4 years ago (played discharge templar on hardcore before), and now I'm back to play the game again. My wife and I are planning to play in the new breach league and I was wondering if there's any suggestions for 2 builds that would progress through the game easily together, not too expensive and can scale up. She's a very casual game (she played diablo 3 and liked it), so I don't want her leveling experience to be too difficult. She generally also likes flashy skills (played wizard in diablo 3), so that's one consideration. I personally don't care as long as the character can clear fast. I'd likely be partying with her the entire time, even when we farm in maps, so something with good synergy would be preferred. I may solo farm once in a while.
Thoughts?
Zachary Green
Anyone else plan on playing mediumcore next league?
Carson Murphy
play a normal build and tell your whore to play necromancer aurabot. Make sure to properly train her so she can become your personal cumslut
Owen King
She's my wife you moron you will not speak of her in such a derogatory manner
Dylan Johnson
What's a good addition to Soul Taker? Jack the Axe is recommended alot but that leech reduction hurts like shit on Slayer
Carter Parker
what about your wife's son? will he be playing?
Levi Richardson
if you're the one wearing the skirt in this relationship maybe you should be the one playing aurabot and let your wife peg you
Joshua Nelson
What are the odds of GGG making Blight good? It was the only new skill I was excited for and it turned out to be a massive pile of shit, meanwhile nobody actually cares because they're playing Scorching Gay and Meme Flurry and those get 99% of the spotlight and attention
Anthony Murphy
they will probably buff it, whether it will be viable or not depends on how much they buff it
Ian Fisher
That's a good analysis, cheers mate.
John Johnson
Just any high dps axe
Eli Lewis
With the new cast on channel it may be a quicker way to cast contagion without the cast delay
Levi Reyes
Wasting a socket so I can melee cast Contagion by a faster 0.25 sec hardly sounds like "making Blight good"
Henry Foster
I can't wait for the new league. Gonna play a scorching ray totem chieftain and hopefully get to T10 at least. The new shield looks beastly for totems, hopefully it won't be like an ex or more.
Ayden Evans
I just want the new league to start right now
fuck these breaks
Jonathan Cruz
The thing with WoE though is that you can use Cleave to deal with rares/bosses instead of lacerate because of the extra links.
I'll see what happens when I get that far into the new league.
Sebastian Rodriguez
ZiggyD or Neversink loot filter?
Elijah Bailey
is Ryu our guy?
Josiah Rogers
Default
Cameron Lewis
How can people even play with default?
Ryan Hughes
ShiggyD is shit, Neversink is the patrician choice
Carter Foster
the default filter is not that bad, shows all rares, all Chanceables, they still need to fix a few bugs of priority but it's very good.
Ryder Robinson
Neversink needs to stop only pretending skyforth is a good chance
Elijah Flores
Probably means the new one added in 2.4.2. Default is a bad name for it, since it's not actually the default filter.
Cameron Hughes

As expected of grinding gears

Carson Phillips
With a soul taker and three auras you don't need cleave. I found cleave to be a pain in the ass to use and conducive to getting my ass killed.
Luke Gray
0-4 go to sleep 5-9 edge for 2 hours
Justin Rogers
And yet somehow 80% of bases are 'good' including 1h swords, axes & claws...
Use his colour scheme and make your own filter with it, like I did
Jordan Lee
>I'll see what happens when I get that far into the new league. Check Hege's death with his character. It was complete bullshit and another reminder that melee range skills shit.
Tyler Gonzalez
It was due to a bug, but that kind of stuff happens with volatiles a ton. My lacerater ripped in poorjoys. One half second to slow on flasks and you get one shot by some trash, best way to stay alive is abuse the full screen range of lacerate.
Jackson Peterson
What's a good build to play while you're dressed as a catboy?
Michael Flores
you are all shit, the true "bestcore" is the "theorycraft builds - never play the actual game because its all the same meaningless shit that hasnt changed much since 1.3 or so" >inb4 woah dude my ascendanices, build enabling unigues, muh snowflake builds, muh atlas, shitty map reskins and awesome unique new boss mechanics that dont matter you are still spamming aoe at mobpacks, throwing traps at mobpacks, placing totems to kill mobpacks or summoning hordes to fight mobpacks for you. Such diversity, much variety
Dylan Young
Memepaw single target incinerate max projectile speed. It's like a really long stream of cat piss.
Aiden Flores
give one to me

did i hurt your feelings? go buy some mystery boxes, make yourself happy
Nolan Gray
you're trying SO hard it's actually kinda cute lmfao

It's for the visual retard. Catbois do not deserve real builds.

in the end you're just clicking buttons in every game you stupid faggot

Anyone's cports not picking up PoE since the 64bit update?

Post the macro on pastebin or something.
Oliver Long
How much more damage would voll have done compared to a unmodded crit?
Jack Moore
Bosses shouldn't be able to crit
Nolan Thomas
>waaah I can't dodge dominus slam plz make game easier for me
Grayson Brown
I stand in the middle of that with a 4300HP Berserker. Yes, the one in Residence.
Brayden Evans
>I'm fucking retarded Yea, we know buddy.
Colton Martinez
It's like
''oh no a map with hexproof let's reroll'' (super easy mods on it)
''Wauw extra monster and crit to everything, I'll do it''
And then afterwards he argues it's because he didn't get more ES gear. Even if he got more ES gear to boost his effective hp to 11k he would likely still get oneshotted due to all the damage mods.
Regular voll charge on shaped deals around ~4kish phys damage I believe. +54% increased is around 6kish + 4.8k fire damage, with 75% resist thats 1.2k so that means 7.2k damage. Crit multiplier of 1.7 = 12.2k.
It was stupid to not reroll that map. Especially since extra attack speed makes the charge pretty hard to dodge.
William Watson
Even if you removed the crit mod and he got critted he would've died, possibly to a non crit as well since his build had no physical mitigation up at the time.
Levi James
What is one true immortal build that doesn't rely on VP leech? I have a really bad connection and I'm tired of rerolling 50 times in a league
Isaiah Ortiz
I heard they're nerfing Blade Vortex to something like 5hits/sec max even at max blades. Is that true ? Can I get a link ?
Nathaniel Torres
Don't forget the vulnerability curse

no one knows what changes there will be before 2.5. ggg is still "working" on it. check back december 1st.
Kayden Martinez
thx
Sebastian Perez
Aegis builds are the closest you can get to passively immortal. They are heinously expensive and slow. Other than that, varunastra glad 75/75 earthquake was what I used in perandus with shit connection and it was really tanky and had good damage.
Zachary Campbell
if you get hit you're shit l2p git gud
Jason Cooper
Yea right I'll just play blade vortex pathfinder instead.
Jonathan Clark
who else is playing self cast discharge next league?
