So I've come to realise that the way to make currency in this game is to die like an idiot and re-level. I don't know if the over-levelled penalty on currency drops is as big as it feels but it feels huge.
>>
>>127424404
There isn't a penalty on currency past merc dried lake.
>>
>>127424404

Its not. It does not exists after lvl 66.

What happens tough on HC is that people slow their clear speeds down at high levels. When you are leveling with goty lvling gear, you are clearing areas fast as fuck, and most people start slowing down because they are afraid of death the further they get.

Im getting more currency drops at T1 maps with a lvl 84 char than i did ever while leveling. But then again, i clear those maps under 5 minutes if i dont backtrack.

Friendly reminder:

If you can't make a working, efficient and viable build around a skill you haven't yet used/are very familiar with without a guide you might actually be retarded.
>>
>>127430245

Ok, make me an ele hit build.

Oh? What's that? You are retarded?
>>
>>127430556

You could easily make an ele hit build using gmp/chain or gmp/pierce with bows/wands that could be viable in most mapping situations.

It would of course be inferior to other skills available but it would still work.

But we both know that you know that I am not talking about making a bad skill better through some sort of magic and you are just trying to stir the pot.
>>
>>127430787

You are stirring the pot by throwing out works as:
>working
>efficient
>viable

Without actually determining what exactly that means. Is is clearing X map in Y time? No deaths up to lvl X?

You could play a fucking autoattack build and get to maps. Sure it wont be as efficient as top tier skills, but possible. Without defining the parameters you talk about, everyone, or noone could be a retard.

You are either lying or have some sort of arcane runes powering your computer.

I have a new pc that can run TW 3 without noticable frame drops on high(not maxed), and in poe the game shits itself whenever i hit a lot of mobs or a few too many effects go off.

Sure, spamming a skill on my own wont cause a noticable dip in fps, but hit a few mobs with it and the fps goes to the shitter.

Alch anything you can run without having to reroll with chaos. Generally anything between t4-t7, if I have a build that can run almost any mod I'll start alching at t5. Chiseling t8+.

With that said, there are no set rules to using currency on maps. It's something you'll have to get a feel for.

The community is small enough at this point that telling you what to flip would just screw me over.

But for future leagues, just play an MF character and flip mid-high tier div cards all day, gets you all the money you need to play actual builds.

Those "stat sticks" offer stats that you won't find on shields though, like crit chance, crit damage and some combos with uniques's stats.

Usually reave builds go balls to the wall full dps so having a weapon in your off-hand makes more sense.

Im choosing to ignore the crit shadow tree.

Its hard to believe that 3.5% base crit chance and 70% Multi+Free charges will go live. It would allow you to ignore pretty much all the crit in the normal tree and let you build a tanky ass crit caster.

Not even GGG is that retarded

Hailrake
This fight is a tad harder than the Hillock one. Hailrake moves faster, and uses Glacial Cascade. On top of that, he's accompanied by a bunch of Cannibals. Fireball will make short work of the cannibals. But it's very important that you stay on the move. It's best to circle around Hailrake since his Glacial Cascade travels in a straight line. Use flasks to regain missing health, and keep firing fireballs to the guy. He will fall once you hit him enough.

Wait, is he teaching people to use goddamn fireball all the way until firestorm is available?

You see, until I played FF12 I agreed with that.

FF12 put 4 chests in the game that if you opened, you wouldnt be able to get one of the strongest weapons in the game later on. The problem was that these chests had no indications that you shouldnt open them, and nothing in the game even told you about these chests.

Ever since Square pulled that shit on me ive looked up guides for every game I play. I still enjoy the games though.

And when youre a neet you have plenty of time to read things about games youre playing.

Could be bothered to experiment with melee this patch. I would personally love to run Static Strike but thats probably a shit idea with a staff, especially since the gutted the AoE.

it's a matter of accountability rather than belief.

if the performance improvements don't come to fruition, they'll be creating a resume of failure.

>>127467729
The current state of performance is piss poor and if the game launched today it would probably be a failure.

The only reason were able to accept it is because we know the game is good and are willing to give them some time to fix it.

But if they dont follow through and get group framerates up and get rid of the random freezing, then the game will be dead by the end of the year.

Do people actually believe this or are they just memetically regurgitating this shit. I guess the majority of people playing f2p are cheap enough that they're running on potatoes but god damn.

I recently upgraded my computer. I can run Witcher 3 on Ultra with hairworks off at a stable 60fps.

I go into a map using Bladefall and 2 friends that are using Firestorm and Icestorm. When we all attack a group of mobs I go down to 30-45fps, some groups will drop me down to 25ish.

A fracture map will drop me to 15-22 fps, strongboxes in those maps getting me to almost single digits or crashing.


We did an Actons Nightmare and anytime we walked more that a few character widths away from each other we would all freeze up for at least a second, we wernt even attacking and we were still on each others screens.

So yes, I actually believe this because i experience it on a daily basis with a computer that shouldnt have a single problem with the game.

This largely occurs because because of overdraw (a single pixel has to be re rendered multiple times to account for transparency). Poe uses alot of transparency, its why its worst on skills like firestorm and discharge which have huge overlapping projectiles. If you have 8 firestorms poe might have to render patches of the screen 10-12 times which slows things down.

Afaik blizzard avoids this by basically using less transperancy and only using 1bit transparency.
>>
>>127471072
problem with split arrow is HoI, HoI is pretty laggy
firestorm used to be shit performance wise, but they remade it last patch and it's much better now, people can even play CoC firestorm now
the new skills perform decently, I guess, except extra gore + blade vortex, which is fucking awful.I heard ball lightning still has some issues too
>>
>>127470883
Exactly, they release these cool looking things but all they do it destroy framerates.

Or in some cases they just buff skills and screw them up. Look at Lightning Strike, even at 3-5 projectiles it would lag when hitting a large group, now the thing shoots out like 9 or 10 projectiles and you get stop lag when attacking packs.

I dont think they even test half the shit they change.
>>
I am thinking of running an Iron Will+Flameblast Marauder, stacking life,strength and cast speed. Would it be viable(HC).
>>
>>127471514
lightning strike and lightning arrow are both fucking laggy because of the thunder that falls from the sky,plus shit that falls from the sky normally fucks up your visibility. GGG are pretty incompetent
>>
>>127471389
Ball Lightning was the first time I encountered the game loading spell casts by party members when you visit areas they went to.

I dont know why the game does this, but it happens with most spells now. If we split up and I catch up to somebody I will load and hear every single cast they did. This generally results in some freezing or extremely low framerates.

Now that im talking about it im realizing just how fucked performance is, I wonder if theyll even be able to get it to an acceptable point before everyone gets fed up.
>>
>>127471720
iron will so probably not. a regular lameblaster does more damage.

and a chaos blaster does even more damage.
>>
>>127471514
>I dont think they even test half the shit they change.

Correct. Or they do and ignore the results. See: Incinerate
>>
>>127471720
strength of Iron Will is that it's spell damage, aka the whole friggin spell. this will effect something like glacial cascade more than flameblast, which dips harder into elemental (from the burn) than spell dmg.

Also, your IW build is shit without an astramentis.
>>
Will GGG be buffing anything to compensate for all of the new power acquired from ascendance tree?
>>
>>127472864
Probably not, the game difficulty goes in cycles.

Ascendancy will be the expansion that nerfs A4 by giving players more power, after that we have a period where retarded shit like max block/spellblock starts popping up until it all gets nerfed again when A5 comes out.

Because its a pretty simple game with almost no interaction with other people. Removing trading was a terrible idea.

You can get about 10-14 days out of it if you get a group of friends together and push grifts though.

After thats over you just have to get through February before Ascendancy comes out, luckily February is filled with game releases if youre into rpgs. Xcom 2, Tales of Symphonia, Fire Emblem Fates, and Disgaea being released within 2 weeks of each other has me pretty excited.

With this the most important item for literally every single character build is their weapon. High attack speed low base damage weapons are now useless. One of the strong suits for spellcasters is partial gear independence, so if you get fucked for drops, you're not forced to find something better.

All way up until you hit a grift wall at around grift 50 it is pretty damn fun. After that, it's a mega autistic grind. But yeah, it doesn't last very long and it exposes the crippling limitations of how simplified the game is. It's really not much different from PoE tho. The only reason why mapping doesn't get boring even faster is because of being forced to play the game three times before mapping. PoE is also horribly simplified, with a bunch of convoluted systems which can be reduced down just as easily as D3's.

Diablo 2 remains as the only shining example in the genre. Some will contend Diablo 1 and I won't argue so don't bother.

I have a feeling blizzard developers are very spiteful. If the fans keep complaining about the systems being simplified they'll just come up with more horribly convoluted systems that nobody really enjoys and they say "we told you so" when anybody who understood how Diablo 2 worked could fix the entire game in a day.

Melee is a meme and always was a meme. People only play melee when GGG decides to gut mages.

Melee damage in entirely based on rng, unless you drop a 350+ dps one hand or a 550+ dps two hand weapon, mages will always be better.

Apparently not, since it seems that I missed the patch that calculated the damage of a hit after the CWDT setup passively applied a curse to the target that hit you which was only triggered due to you taking a specific amount of damage in the first place.
