One thing that REALLY annoyed me this league was the inability to change up stuff after you "activate" the map. You see the lantern stuff and think; oh nice, let me do x and y and z to take advantage of this, but no... everything is locked. That created totally unnecessary fomo-ish feelings. Bad bad bad design, but that's not a foreign concept this league...

i've been doin this strat like 3 weeks, played like 2-3 hours daily(working), managed to get 4 hinekoras drop , most of it drop as dupe.. yeah strats pretty much legit :P

i personally think the point where you mention you only farm 1 league mechanic nowadays is a non argument. like yes it is true, but if you want to mix it up more often there is literally 3 diffrent strats you can change on a whim now. but mayb thats me not being against supercharging one mechanic.

"gravity harnesses" !! that's gold. :)

I don't agree with the basegame being in great shape. I think that T17's and the scarab rework resulted in a much more monotonous endgame. I also think the difficulty of T17's will likely have pretty big effects on build diversity in future leagues. I wouldn't be shocked to see one or two skill just completely dominating in future leagues because they are the only starters that can handle the content. Good video.

Ill just blame a NA education on your apparent lack of knowledge about northern versus southern hemisphere seasons.

3.17 core was peak, idk why don't they realize that and take inspiration from it

really great breakdown, thank you!

My guy nz and aus are in summer in december its winter now think of it like this if its winter for you its summer for us and vice versa you know the world is round and rotates around a sun and you know seasons change haha but i found what you said amusing haha

I tried out LS champ you recommended last league. tankiest build I've played.

I think they dont care about league retention. They make all their money in the first week with starter packs and etc..

I will miss the more deterministic crafting, this league I had a great time in SSF. For context I have tons of quads and solo stash tabs so I didn't relate to the inventory issues.

Whatever the league was I've had a lot of fun playing PoE and your videos have been a big part of that... I might not have gotten-on with the FR Pathfinder I made (I got it tanky but couldn't really afford all the damage it deserved) but I learned a tonne making it - so thanks for that at least!

6:38 This is the reason I dipped out of the league despite liking legitimately every part of the mechanic. GGG obviously didn't have the testers test in yellow maps and higher or these sorts of interactions would have become obvious. 8:53 This is also the first league I've had a 6x T1 Item. I simply don't play enough during the part of the league where trade hasn't died yet to get enough currency to buy one after they shoot up to 50+div in week two. Let alone a Rog hit or making one myself. 10:35 This is legit a screwup. And again one that should have been caught in even rudimentary testing. 11:50 I mostly ran Back to Basics with all four Necropolis nodes. The game just runs so much smoother with all the mechanics turned off and not randomly dying to the lagspike of loading in new mobs. (Black thumb is a staple in my trees for this reason.) 19:35 I dabbled some with Unwavering Vision when I found that all I was getting was add a mecnaic scarabs...which if I wanted a mechanic I'd 100% it on the tree so were really worthless. You'd think 20 extra points would be really strong...turns out it's just kinda mid even compared to the most common scarabs. 22:40 It now also conveniently lands at about week three in Last Epoch's first post-release 'league'. So a nice timing to really crush their only legitimate competitions retention. My hopes for 3.25 ...are not the same as yours. I want to see gravecrafting go core without a harvest-style nerf, but be highly optional, probably behind an atlas keystone. With some massive additional restriction to keep 6x T1 items from flooding the market. I'd go so far as to consider a cannot be traded enchant on items from gravecrafting. The league mechanic on tree experiment is salvageable, but not the way they did it. I'm thinking a Keystone that acts like a timeless jewel for the atlas, transforming one of the other mechanics into the league one. And the lantern could honestly go core basically as is, now that we've beta tested its interactions for them. Stick it behind an atlas keystone so the people that complained about having to futz with it every map don't have to deal with it.

i enjoy crafting mechanic this league. i can make stupid impossible stuff. my current project of a double influenced helm with spell damage(yes spell damage on a dex helm) and life fracturedfor a base to the ultimate strength stacking helmet. the fact i can boost the league mechanic even farther with atlas map is a huge bonus. if you dont want to spec into the league mechanic then dont. it sounds to me like you dont enjoy it so dont get it, simple. the fact i can choose to remove or amplified the league mechanic with atlas is a great benefit to me. at the end of the day besides trading for corpses this league was amazing

You are definitely one of the best POE content creators around and I was very happy to follow you during the league. Thanks for the videos and hope to see you again next league!

Appreciate your take on this. T17's were really difficult and as a casual player, I got FOMO since I didn't have the gear/build/time to really get to do them. I agree a slight rework of those modifiers would be beneficial and help with that jump from T16's to Ubers. Am enjoying the channel, thanks for all you do with it!

It feels like the whole reason for Necropolis was to sell stash tabs, there is absolutely no reason why they didnt do corpses and allflames stackable other than it was on purpose and like you said yourself you had to buy lots of stash tabs so did everyone else, Im all up for supporting a good job for this type of games with supported packs and mtx and whatnot, but this being forced and totally intended just pisses me off

First League i quit after only 3 weeks, every other i played atleast 5-8 weeks. This time i had no fun with forced mechanics t17 farm was also shit. Econemy was in the bin after 2 weeks and necrocrafting got out of Hand(5 Fracture Items WTF). Chaseitems that where normally 100+ Divs you could get for 10 divs. I like to run after nice items or like to sell good items for a good price but when you get a headhunter the third day of the league and you think nice jackpot and it is only worth 40div you really have to ask you why did GGG hate the old playstyle of chaseitems and Grinding? Its in their name Grinding Gear Games

I absolutely loved this League. Not for the league itself or grave yard. But I like to delve, I am able to put in 1 sulphate all flame and 1 sulphate doubling scarab and in less than 1 t10 map I was maxed. First league I was able to completely ignore mapping and do what I like sooner and longer. 10/10 would play again.

I think the league mechanic highlighted the worse aspects of PoE. Currency pick up and stacking were abysmal. Stash management with corpses highlighted other bad ones like tomes and beasts. Allflames are good, but the two menu interface was bad. These little annoyances just wear players down much more than before and this was supposed to be the QoL league. Still it is my most played league (out of 3, I'm still a greenhorn).

This was the first league I crafted multiple six-link items and I just had a really good time. Note that I started the league very late so a lot was patched by then thanks to early player feedback. - 3 atlas trees? Huge W -easy early 6 links for noobs like me? W -ctrl + shift + left click. W -forcing league mechanics via atlas? W I blocked the lantern on the left side of my tree and ended up blasting anyway without embers or dragging modifiers around before every map. I didn't go 40/40 on the challenges, I don't know the game well enough for that, but I had a good time. That said, I've already wrapped up my season. There's not much left that I want to do so I'd just be grinding away for idk what.

Keep it up and Im looking forward to the next league as well. I enjoyed Necropolis despite the rocky roads - it’s so nice to see how great GGG is with experimenting new things and using POE 1 like a little playground for POE2. Very well prepared videos with lots of good, wealthy and helpful information. Btw for anyone who likes Toxic Rain (of withering) like you do, you might check out my Assassin’s version which is surprisingly the only build on poe ninja this league -> grilleeerr Since u seem to be experienced with Toxic Rain… is Pathfinder so much stronger? And if so, what’s making the difference to lets say my example/Assassin Toxic Rain? Stay safe exile ✌️

Saying that it was easy to craft good items is a bit disingenuous. That's something only the top 1% can say. No one can understand it without understanding core crafting mechanics and what is actually valuable. This league shows you why crafting is already good enough and is suffering from bloat. People need currency to drop to craft with and it seems they trying to reduce the amount of spam crafting but people didn't look at it this way. They need to reduce the grind in some manner so you aren't stuck on one build the whole league if you are more casual. I don't mind crafting but it shows how people view the time sink. The.corpse system was superior to conventional crafting methods but crafting as a whole is very random. It feels really bad to spend all your time trying to learn something only to be let down because it didn't work out. It makes you feel as if you made no progress. As long as a divine can drop, people will participate in the rat race and it makes for a healthier economy despite inflation or not. It keeps people playing.

The point about it being complex but not deep is so important because that's what ggg has been pushing with PoE 2. But you're right this is completely counter to that philosophy. Edit) I know it would require a huge rebalance but what about just more scarab slots?

he said adult man 👨

1st

any reason you grabbed increased cost of mana skills in tree rather than reduced cost?

I needed …. 600 deafening of one essence to hit my thing I did after 800 I was sadge 😅I love essence farming so that helped the bleeeed

Congrats on 8k! this mod in a watchers eye is usable ? "14% chance to Recover 10% of Mana when you use a Skill while affected by Clarity"

if you want your damage to skyrocket introduce righteous fire

29:40-29:51 Soul of Shakira, Waka Waka (This Time for Africa), Hips Don't Lie

do this strat still work? or got nerf?

oh ultimatum is hella hard, i changed all my tree and then i died in the third round, yep, im changing it back

id try this if it didnt require 5 t0 uniques.. only found a couple of these this league

Thank you for posting this. This helped me pivot from a slow delve-specific build to something that runs T16's and 17's with ease and speed. The help is much appreciated.

this stupid strats just make me rich lmao.. i got like lots of raw currency, couple of hinekoras drop.. hope they wont nerf this next league :P

Hi i league started late this league(last week), and used your smite guide and i would like to know what do i need to do to transition to cyclone from smite?

Howdy howdy, love the content and video. Really informative and a great run-down of how it goes. I was wondering if you have a way to get the Voice of The Storm mod "Lightning damage with non-critical strikes is lucky"? Perhaps I missed something. That would give nearly, if not more than 30% more damage overall with a favorable roll on a low-crit build. That mixed with Ele Overload would be a huge, huge boost. I can see why you'd want/need the attributes in any regard. Cheers!

i can not handle it more than 4 times😂 anoyin and boring.

I know i said it on a diffrent video and you responded its fine but i can't help myself. The Voice audio is cracked. I don't know how to describe it in propper english but for me its sounds like you don't use a muffler. Its specialy the words with hard air pushed against the microfon. Like the word beginns normal and then breaks out. listen maybe abit louder to these words " worst case scenario" at 4:10 to 4:13 I only encounter this issue at your videos. Maybe it has something todo with the render quality.

just built this for about 650-800d. Seems good

If you run out of coruscating charges on a chaos boss, do you just die ?

I decided to give it a go and if someone would like to know how unlucky you can get then check this out. My first fracturing shards on 315 map. But then it went like a breez. Currently I'm at 500, going for 1k now! Below are maps when I get my fracturing shards explosions: 315 352 367 427 435 462

Ascension Scarab still increases quantity of t16s (and t17s) maps that drop. Other Scarabs are probably more impactful still, but we don't know for sure I think.

Great Video, thank you! And I am always a fan of a small chance to blind enemies to increase the hit and evade chance. However, since this is a video for educational/informational purpose, I have a question about your calculations. Following your logic and assuming the blind duration is 5 seconds, instead of only 4, your calculation would result in a 100% blind uptime. But this is not really the case, right? 100% blind uptime is only achievable, if your chance to blind is also 100%. Otherwise, there is always the possibility to get unlucky for like 50 hits in a row and never actually blind the enemy, right? You could also turn your argument around and say: If you attack for 4.31*4=17.24 times in 4 seconds with 5% chance to blind, there is a chance of 0.95^17.23=0.41 to not blind the enemy a single time. I am not sure yet how to calculate the actual uptime of blind but I think, it is different, than what you said in the video. What do you think?

I've been league starting with this build (previously using manabond) for a few leagues now. The biggest hurdle early league definetely is the crit swap, the eldritch jewels cost is rather low early on but it skyrockets pretty fast. This league I've reached the point where there is no more relevant upgrade, at 20k energy shield and mana, for around 110M dps, with something like 2 mirrors worth of gear. (without mageblood btw) But now, with the exposure mana builds got this league, thanks to the archmage rework, I'm afraid I'll need a new op and cozy build for next league. Any suggestion ?

Hi, I'm kinda struggling with this build. Maybe I'm doing something wrong. But my mana (9k) keeps fluctuating from max till almost nothing. And that's when I get one shotted by a white mob with obviously chaos damage (I think). I even got the amulet with essence sap. By seeing this video. Although it helps a bit. I still get one shotted. Wat can I do?

My problem .im lv 91 righteous fire chieftan but don't know how to craft 😢

Jesus, is this young elkapitanlance9 xdd
