And I'm pretty sure I've had two stones drop when I literally couldn't even use two.

Ok I kind of got that part. I just never understood the point of connecting or opening rooms. At this point apparently I need to find Alva so I can go loot the temple I have finished my incursions upon.

The temple only guarantees you entry to the entrance room, you have to make sure you have a path to the rooms you want to get to in order to get the goods. Explosives rooms are a very good workaround if you miss your shot at connecting a good room. Each tier of the Explosives Room gives you one explosive to blow open any passage of your choosing (so you can get 1/2/3 explosives to fix your connections if you want)

Haha so it turns out in the "take one item in seconds" chest you can't control-click the item you want. I'm glad I discovered that when the most that was on the line was 2 blessed orbs.

There is just not enough time for all the currency to be meaningful. It's pretty much just alching but guaranteeing 6 properties. Even 30 seconds would be way too quick.

Ive done 3 rounds of incursions. The main takeaways are this: 1: Read the map. ID the door you want to open. ID which archetect you prefer. 2: Do not panic 3: clear in the general direction of favored archetect. 4: something has to drop a stone thingy. 4b: If no stone thingy has dropped hit unfavored archetect. 5: get to door you ID'd 6: Run out of mobs and run out of time. Whole experience seems to take like 30 sec to 1 minute. The timer and the screen effects are there to gently caress with you. Just kill the things you see.

There's currently a bug where if you don't do what the game expects when you first meet Alva in act 7, it doesn't think you completed the incursion introductory quest and you can't invite her to your hideout and she doesn't appear in maps, even the ones with her icon.

I had this problem for a while, but eventually Alva did show up in a random map for me, and I was able to close out her questline.

The base game is so good at this point with Elder, Delve, and Incursion built in that I'd be totally willing to play in Standard. I'm also really enjoying Betrayal and the OP crafts so it's nice to have the extra content but I'd say Delve is still my favorite part of the game.

Delve is kinda wonky with the Azurite/Sulphite costs right now, though. Feels like things didn't get rebalanced properly with the change to the starting level.

PSA: Table of Sacrifice in Temple of Atzoatl is bugged, I'm in the room right now and getting a "This operation could not be completed" message when trying to use the table. Apparently it's been bugged since Betrayal launched, ugh.

I'm running a BV elementalist and shattering packs with Herald of Ice. I gather the cool endgame unique for the build (which I can't remotely afford at the moment, but whatever) is Inpulsa's. How do its explosions interact with the ice explosions? If I kill a frozen shocked enemy does one kind of explosion take priority or do they both happen?

Can this happen with Einhar too? Cuz I'm in act 8 and can't visit the menagerie despite killing a bunch of beasts and also chatting with him afterwards.

I think I have that bug.  Have not seen her at since act 7 and I am almost done with 9.

So for this league, after exclusively following build guides for the last few, I decided to try making my own league starter build. It... sucks rear end? I made a Frost Blades Raider, loosely based on a couple FB guides floating around the PoE forums. The first problem I ran into was that while my build does not need any specific uniques, it is still very gear dependent. I ended up having to wait till day 2 and pick up some leveling uniques for a few alch just to survive past act 6. I then had to buy more gear when I got to act 8, then again at maps. The second problem I ran into is that while the guides I At level 77, I have a total of... 4,200 HP and a whole 43k boss (not even shaper!) DPS. I have some gear upgrades I could make, but honestly even with that I expect to have around 4,700 life and 250k boss DPS at level 90 with 20/0 gems. Also I would rather stop shoveling money into this pit and put it towards a good build instead. It's funny, I thought that the syndicate content was just too difficult, but no its just my build that's trash.

Frost Blades is very hard to scale well. Consider using molten strike for single target and frost blades for clearing.

Thanks, I did learn a bunch while building it. One thing making this build made me wish for though is an easy way to compare larger changes in Path of building. It's obvious to see the effects of each change, but its difficult to do thing like compare 'what if I go crit/non-crit', 'whats the difference between these wildly different gem loadouts', etc. BadMedic fucked around with this message at 23:53 on Dec 11, 2018 |

I'm having a different, but still weird issue with Alva where she just keeps showing up. Like, at an honestly absurd rate. I'm talking she's there 4 different times in one map. And yeah, I haven't been able to invite her to my hideout either.

Oh, that's good then. It's just very goofy because you finish an incursion, walk 5 feet and Alva is just standing there again. It's like a Looney Tunes cartoon.

So what's the Alva fix if you failed your first incursion due to time and can't go back in, or do anything else with the dumb temple minigame now?
