dis astranagant posted:Hybrid defenses are pretty hard to work with since you can't leech life and ES at the same time. In softcore I usually shoot for at least 4k life or 7k ES when I start maps, and 6k+ life or 10k+ es before red maps. That seems pretty excessive for softcore. I usually do fine with 3k life in white maps and I'm farming shaped strands and shores fine with 5k atm (granted I'm a Ranger so Life is at a premium). Similarly in softcore I'd put those ES numbers closer to 4.5k and 7k respectively myself. You'll probably be higher for red maps if you're running CI with a shield rather than LL without one, but you can still survive fine and it's only softcore.

I run a lot of melee and pbaoes, 4.5k life is a good way to lose lots of xp in red maps.

I'm getting an APRG craving and considering getting back into PoE. I played it in the beta/early launch and was p fun but I got tired of the poor netcode, and one of the things that really sucked was early-game was pretty limited using like 1-2 abils until it really opens up later. Has PoE combat "feels" and netcode been drastically improved and is the early-mid game been changed to be a lot more exciting?

Has PoE combat "feels" and netcode been drastically improved and is the early-mid game been changed to be a lot more exciting? The netcode is worlds better and even has a proper lockstep mode. Desyncs have been a thing of the past for over a year. It's still a 1 or 2 button game most of the time, though. You can now get all gems from vendors on all characters so at least you can choose what that button is easily. There's a huge expansion coming the weekend after next so you might want to hold off til then. We're getting acts 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, and 10. No more repeating the game 3 times before you can map.

Thanks for the heads up. I think we'll wait then. We're going to hit up D3 with the new Necro and try it out first, probably will be ready to tackle PoE after that.

Seems like he got further with less hp than his fb totems? impressive Rodent, would you be willing to post up your filter creation rundown here (including what you use to do it?) I've missed a generation or two of using new PoE tools so I'm slightly curious about what you did, also, I imagine it might be a good thing to reference when newer players in 3.0 start asking about it.

J posted:August 4th is sooner than I was expecting. I've got a new OP I've been working on off and on over the past few weeks, I'll see if I can start putting the finishing touches on it so I can get it posted before the expansion launches. One thing I'd like input on is how we can provide more useful information to new players about what class/build they should play. All throughout this thread new folks would come in and understandably be overwhelmed with the game and I'd like to be able to address as many of those types of questions in the OP as I can. But staying on top of beginner friendly build recommendations is a huge pain. Ideally I'd like to have one general "go-to" build guide for basic archetypes (melee, ranged, caster, summoner, etc), but drat there are so many builds. Not really sure what to include. Haven't played in months and this would be a godsend to have a better idea of what isn't going to be a waste of my time/dead end build. I'd be happy with a quick "Things to avoid in 3.0" list since the changes to double-dipping and probably other things I've missed are being implemented.

Beta trip report: The minions that summon srs are a bit lackluster as spectres since you can't scale the srs they summon with gem links or minion damage%. You can only link them with extra minion life and stuff. Maybe if you could find them in a high level map, the srs would be higher level and then you could use them. Otherwise there's not much to them other than having 100 skull dudes on the screen at once

At a certain point there's very little difference between 4.5kish hp and 2.5k. Well maybe 3.6 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VkwJu_4R3ss. I'm not convinced the concept doesn't work though, so many totems all with leech and 20% taunt is really good.

Jinnigan posted:Updated to the new version of PoETradeMacro, and I'm pretty confused on how to create a custom macro now. Can anyone walk me through the process? In the old version I would've simply added this line to additionalmacros: "^Space::SendInput {Enter}/oos{Enter}" but I'm not sure what to do in this new version. You could just make that a standalone AHK script and run it on its own. Just wrap it in an IfWinActive call: code:

I might do an ED/Contagion character for league starter since ED is kinda buffed and Contagion has that radius increase on gem level now so it wont be as painful. is CI/occultist with wicked ward still the best for that with 3.0?
