kinda sad GGG didnt go full natsoc on their oriath design

...

Best Raider builds for 3.0?

the witch was an excellent kino tbqh

>9 days and we don't even know anything about the challenge league besides the name
I'd put money on them having no fucking clue what to do. It's going to be an incredibly minor thing they can implement last minute like tripling the divination card drop rate or something.

LA probably

Get some corrupted kaom's roots with +1 frenzy, and like voltaxic or windripper shit up

they have never revealed a challenge league's details 9 days before its release

sure is summer in here

I'm going to make a cleave build guys,, 300k dps atm

dual wield rigwald's weapons and play cleave, it's pretty fun

why doesnt this shitty have have a netflix window inside the game UI so we dont have to control multiple monitors?

You can setup a video player to be over your game and unclickable so that you can continue playing. It's best for grind games.

Flicker Strike. All other skills are invalid

poeurl.com/bnki
Martyr of Innocence build featuring flagrant Immolate abuse on every skill
Sunder main attack, Ancestral Warchief in helm, Vaal Molten Shell in boots, CwDT Flame Surge and Fireball because that seems like the kind of thing that's dumb enough to work

What do you reckon, am I ready for 3.0 or what

wasn't that rory

does path of exile even play they're game lmao

you forgot the part where catnigger says "Im gonna get all the challenges all by meself xD" every league

then always looks to purchase his challenges in the thread after a month or so

>Friend finds a lioneyes glare, tosses it my way since i've been needing one since before I made this character

>realize it's going to be lore friendly buffed in 9 days and my copy doesn't matter
>check on trade to confirm
>1C for a 5L
All I wanted was to lioneye it up.

Tornado shot is Pretty Fun

1-5Ls glares get their value from its phys rolls, not the links

It's phys rolls are almost max, which is something.
The wiki max phys number includes 20%, yeah?
Main thing is I could have been using a better bow maybe even slightly better than what I've got now 4-5 days ago, for a pittance.

Never make the mistake of getting out of bed in the morning. By the end of the day you'll feel miserable and left wondering who tricked you to do this. This feeling of slight hope in the morning is a injurious lie. After ten minutes on your feet it's traded for doom and by the evening you're simply wishing for death. Then you crawl back to bed having accomplished nothing, and promise yourself not to repeat this shit tomorrow. But you can avoid all of that, by you know, staying in bed.

How do people manage to play through cruel/some of merciless without wanting to die?
My damage feels like it ends up in the trash the second I hit tower of god every time.
I want to hit racing speeds while leveling but at that point it just feels awful, until I hit like 60, then builds seem to just -click-, but the entire time from 26(ish) to 60 is just constantly slow feeling.
Is there any build that manages to go fast from like start of act 2 onwards?

FREE!

>Is there any build that manages to go fast from like start of act 2 onwards?

sr cwc firestorm and sunder are guaranteed fast leveling builds

>everyone goes Life in 3.0

>it will still be viable, but people will overestimate the nerfs so gear will be dirt cheap

do they hate the east coast, or what?

Hello friends and pals. What are the top tier builds for 3.0? I haven't played since legacy.

I want to run queen of the forest though preferably with a raider though for QoL.

Sunder

Sunder

Sunderer

Sundererer

Sundererer: the Sundering

What classes does sunder work best with?

>cwc
isn't that like level 38?
feels counter to my thought of "from act 2 onward"
but alright.
I'm trying just FS or Sunder on the same character for the last day and that's what prompted my first post, something must be fucky with my gear

any class that isn't witch

Are the new skill gems that get introduced with updates usually rare/hard to find or will I be able to build around one fairly early?

there are only 4 gems in the game that you can't buy from vendors and they are all support gems

How is poison, ignite, bleed, elementals etc?

dots are kill

Does RF count as DoT and being kill?
specifically RF chieftan

no, rf is fine

>Finally got last piece of reasonable gear
>Next upgrade is atleast 50e

Whelp, Im done til 3.0.

rf got nerfed randomly LMAO it's shit

you use fs alone in normal, cwc later. it should be quick enough, specially with a good leveling wand like reverb rod

>good leveling wand
right.
Found the issue
it's that I have none of those.

what is looking to be viable in 3.0?

Do you think we'll be seeing righteous fire dark pact builds, lads?

what like an hour ago?

then you can make one. roll or do recipe for a +1 gem wand or sceptre, then add a cata enchant

that alone can carry you into merciless

>still no lab worko
>new trap unique
>traps still shite
>scion

>cata enchant
elaborate, please?

>free
>free
>FREE
>free

if you make your weapon from recipe or are lucky when rolling, youll have an empty slot for a spell damage enchant from catalina, the a2 master you can invite to your hideout

Oh right, I'm retarded, forgot about her.
My 'main' has cata needed 100% last so she's unavailable atm, elreon's only approaching 7 in a couple days I'll get my friend who's the reverse to do that for me.

what's up with weebposters all being low-intellect monkeys?

because only low intellect weebs like anime made past 1996

Bex you are welcome to post here.

lain was released in 1998 and it's probably the most important piece of art of the last century

played ice spear up until about 80 in the beta.

the not having to path to the perce nodes is nice, but i still can't make it work. With the bosses new higher HP switching out to single target spear is just garbage.

>all the passive elemental pen is on hit with weapons only

Who's fucking great idea was that?

I think you underestimate how much ES gear got nerfed. I played around on PoB and it was noticeably difficult to get to 8k es.

whose*

lain was almost good, but still quite shitty

whom's

Ask Chris "GayGayGay" Wilson.

xhemevers'

8k is still a decently high pool compared to life.

Look at these titties that I found.

8k life is easy now

Any viable Spectral Throw builds in 3.0?

Looking on the forums the 3.0 builds all look unfun.

so did your mom on the brothel ads, but you still exist

>always play melee
>melee weapons will be expensive shit now that everyone is going sunder

looks like it's time for a change.

it's sheeple like you who scion looks down on.

The Vaal pact nerf is big enough I feel like it empowers scion to grab slayer ascendancy.

HowA is still pretty legitimate. Aside from that you're probably out of luck.

HoWaA*

"life leech is not removed at full life" doesn't apply to ES leech

there should be a Unique that lets you dual wield shields, and a skill gem that scales with armor value

maybe armor wouldn't be fucking worthless, then

Support gems that give more ele/physical damage based on your evasion/armor.

Why not just have a 2 handed shield with 6 sockets

>ITT user doesn't know about facebreakers

Vaal Pact can very easily be fixed by making the RATE instant, but leaving the leech cap alone.

Say you do 10,000 damage, say you have 2,000 health. Standard leech cap is 20% of your health per second, so it would be 400 health/second. Current Vaal Pact removes the cap entirely.

How about Vaal Pact instead grants a 100% "more" bonus to leech cap (so 40% at base) and makes leech instant. So this would mean in the scenario above, you can INSTANTLY leech 800 health, but not instantly full.

If you add in Hematophagy (5%) and Vitality Void (5%), together with the 100% "more" bonus, this would bring your leech cap to 60%, so 1200 health out of 2000 health instantly.

Portal, Detonate Mines

>the ethical meme didnt even last for the whole league

bit of a shit meme to be honest

>Decide to give Oro's Flicker a try in beta
>Get to level 67
>Equip Oro's
>Go to Harbor Bridge
>Hold RMB
>End up nearly halfway across the map before I can no longer find a target

there is nothing to fix

VP is 12 travel points away from the scion life cluster

Why is there only 150% life on the whole top half of the tree

because MoM is literally 30% MORE FREE life

ok but I want to use auras

play es then

I'm playing totem rf for 3.0 and you can't stop me

...

>tfw brainlet

a dangerous ride

but a ride like no other

>there is nothing to fix
>mandatory for any non-slayer leech build

:thinking:

...

maybe thats because there aren't as many safe forms of mitigation compared to leech and non VP leech completely fucking sucks dick.

removing/nerfing VP isn't good for the game unless it comes with many other general rebalances which i have no faith in GGG to make. removing it for ES was bad enough.
