 I remember simply running out of time here, almost how I ran out of time in Sentinels. No matter how much I played the Beyond bosses I needed wouldn't spawn.

I got 3 but I dropped the league at 80 on day 3 or 4 so I don’t really count it as playing. I’d say on average maybe 16 or so but I never really chase them and rarely play nearly as hard as a lot of y’all

It's been so many leagues since I played, I've got no idea what's even worth playing any more. Time to do some youtubes I guess.

Sentinel was the first league that I ever actually cared about challenges. I hadn't started out caring but as I was clearing content, I got closer and closer to just... finishing challenges. And then by the time I was in the 30s, especially mid 30s, it was sort of like "okay well, I guess I'll go for 38" and then when I hit 38, it turned out that the last ones I needed was on content I was already doing anyway (I think one was no volatiles on uber elder, which I was farming for feared witnesses). In the past leagues, the only ones I'd gone out of my way to complete were ones like "Use this vendor recipe!" Looking back, there were a bunch of challenges that I could have completed basically in minutes, like in scourge I didn't use a maven's orb so I didn't get that challenge done, etc. Archnemesis: 28 Scourge: 33 Expedition: 26 Ultimatum: 21 (I dipped out of the league relatively early) Ritual: 31 Heist: 26 Harvest: 10 (I started Sep 4th, which was 10 days before Harvest league ended)

Since everyone else is sharing their league history: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1VfMZ_r48dLSQE4D1lOKMUcAfkm0FkNDO__-9HeRaOJA/edit?usp=sharingBishop01 posted:Any suggestions on a minion starter build for this league? Kay is one of the go-tos for minion builds in this game and this is what she's theorycrafted for this league: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4wN3Ajiqzg Although those are all fairly new archetypes. For stuff that's tried and true and hasn't been affected too much by the changes this patch I'd probably lean more towards Guardian builds like Absolution or Dominating Blow. DigitalMocking posted:It's been so many leagues since I played, I've got no idea what's even worth playing any more. Time to do some youtubes I guess. You picked an...interesting time to come back. Not just because new league tomorrow but because there's been a pretty sizeable shift in the meta the past two leagues along with a massive endgame overhaul. At least we can tell you which videos are bullshit if you post them here (assuming we're not all busy poopsocking). whypick1 fucked around with this message at 05:36 on Aug 19, 2022 |

Incursion: 25 Delve: 37 Betrayal 36: Synthesis: 15 (shocked by this actually, I hated this league) Legion: 36 Blight: 24 Metamorph: 36 Delirium: 36 Harvest: 36 Heist: 24 Ritual: 37 Ultimatum: 25 Expedition: 4 Scourge: 13 Archnemesis: 38 Sentinel: 9 Usually my challenge number is a direct reflection of how much I enjoyed the league. The exception is Sentinel, where I enjoyed it quite a bit but the awful challenges actually discouraged me and lead me to quit the league early.

Sentiel - 0 Archnemesis - 39 Scourge - 36 Expedition - 13 Ultimatum - 22 Ritual - 37 Heist - 19 Harvest - 38 Delirium - 40 Metamorph - 40 Blight - 36 Legion - 38 Synthesis - 35 Betrayal - 36 Delve - 16 Incursion - 36 Bestiary - 36 Abyss - 28 Harbinger - 24 Legacy - 20 Breach - 36 Essence - 0 Prophecy - 10 Perandus - 40 Talisman - 26/32 For the most part I do 36 if I enjoy the league, and if not I just peace out after about a week. A few leagues have very low challenges or zero because I was playing WoW instead, Delve being the major one that I actually enjoyed but didn't have time for. Sentinel I skipped completely to play Lost Ark. Most leagues I get to the mid 20s without even trying, and then it comes down to finishing up the challenges with my friends in the last couple days we play. We all play most leagues for between 1 and 2 weeks, though there were a few exceptions like Harvest and Delirium that got about a month of play. Looking back the only weird one is Ultimatum, I just didn't care about challenges that league at all even though I played a ton of it.

What's funny is my first league was Incursion and I started late (2-3 weeks) and played hardcore the entire time and still ended up with 15 challenges without specifically going for them, as compared to my 18 in Sentinel with playing a LOT more and in softcore instead and playing basically the entire league (save like 2 weeks).

just fyi since i've seen a few mentions of heist/infinite heist: if you're planning on doing it day 1--or if you have a hard time generating currency early in the league in general--you should install (and figure out how to use, which took me like 10 minutes) Chaos Recipe Enhancer, which is a tool that scans your dump tab to figure out what you need to pick up to complete a chaos recipe, modifies your loot filter on the fly to highlight those items, and will display an overlay on your screen so you just click on the highlighted areas in your stash tab without having to look. tons of day 1 heist's value lies in easy chaos recipe sets, since so much rare jewelry comes out of the little chests, so if you aren't doing the chaos recipe or wasting any time at all thinking about it, you should probably just be in maps instead.

i know back when i started playing poe the thread superstars at the time had a super absolute standpoint on the chaos recipe--that it was for rubes and idiots who didn't know how to value identified rares--and it took me a long time to get past that advice, which, frankly, is just not true today. i'm not trying to pick a fight or anything; if the chaos recipe slows you down a lot it really isn't worth doing, and this tool didn't exist back then so they very well might have been right. but the tool exists now, and just from a value perspective, you should be doing it. if you didn't want to do it because it sounds mind-numbing that's perfectly reasonable, because it is. but if you're willing to pick up 6-socket items off the ground for the jeweller's orbs, you should be willing to do this. the tool makes so you just click on the things your loot filter highlights, same as you always would, and assembling full sets out of your dump tab is just more click-on-the-highlight.

Look I'm all for doing the chaos recipe if you just really need a little bit of quick hard currency, but this equivalence is just awful. 6 sockets for jewellers orbs takes me a fraction of a second to do one, and it's two clicks. Even with a tool like this, chaos recipe is still like 15x more thinking and clicking and time. And, frankly, I look at the chaos recipe like this: it's the only "money making" technique in POE where you have to do it 150 times to make a single

yeah i mean if it ain't fun you shouldn't do it, but i find having lovely gear on saturday pretty unfun too. and it genuinely isn't any more trouble inside the map, at least until you're doing maps good enough that you'd want to carry out more than a single inventory of stuff out of the map (immediately stop doing the chaos recipe if you're still doing it, and probably also 6s/chrome 3Ls at this point. never go home just to drop stuff off.). clicking the sets out of the dump tab admittedly does suck, but it really is worth it.

See what your build's damage is like with a thicket bow harvest reforged for t1 added chaos + crafted attack speed and make sure you're happy with doing atlas progression on that kind of damage, just in case.

See what your build's damage is like with a thicket bow harvest reforged for t1 added chaos + crafted attack speed and make sure you're happy with doing atlas progression on that kind of damage, just in case. the reason im gonna play Pathfinder is because ive done it like 5 leagues in a row or some poo poo and i know how far i can push pconc- the only reason i don't play it the entire league is because being down an inventory slot is annoying. i can do the bosses with just pconc. it does get a little hairy in red maps when you stop being able to easily scale with flask tiers though. but it's fine, since it's so gear independent until that point you can just stack tank. the clear doesn't slow down much at that point so you can just resolve yourself to bosses taking longer than normal. my plan is to basically just blast heist for money- I know a good darkscorn will be expensive as gently caress, but that's fine. they probably aren't going to be 20 divine for a min roll or some poo poo, and even if they are it just means spending longer on pconc. which I like. worst case scenario i just respec to a cheaper, less meta raider build or something. or try to scale econc, i guess, except they randomly made Pathfinder even more useless at ele damage this league for Reasons

Chaos recipe is okay for generating raw chaos. That does not mean it's good for generating currency, as in buying power. If you need good starting gear, that's what essences are for. There is simply no world with the new atlas passives where the chaos recipe is worth the time and clicks beyond your literal first dozen maps. Literally anything else gets you 10x the currency chaos recipe does.

Literally anything else gets you 10x the currency chaos recipe does. But they were talking specifically about endless heisting. If you are going to do that degenerate strategy (whose goal is to generate a bunch of raw chaos very early in the league while the buying power of chaos is high) a significant fraction of the money you make is from chaos recipe. And doing chaos recipe now that you can have quad dump tabs with affinities pulling everything that's not a rare out plus that tool to tell you what slots you are low on is pretty chill.

even for me, chaos recipe is for buying my first 6L for greed essencing, any core uniques my build doesn't really function without, whatever 83-ish bases i need to throw into harvest reforges, and that's it. normally that's like an hour in heist, this league it'll probably be more because i'm extremely stupid and will be wanting a covenant. e: oh, bases with okay-ish fractures and hitting em with veiled chaos are frequently a great way to get some surprisingly good pieces early Reiterpallasch fucked around with this message at 08:29 on Aug 19, 2022 |

I think I'm going to go with CF Glad this time around, I haven't tried it before. I was toying with the idea of SRS, but it's looking like Covenants might be a bit pricy this season, and I have to get out of this habit of getting slowed down/stuck in yellow maps due to lack of funds/luck. Not that CF Glad is a guarantee against that, of course.

I didn't realize you could go back through your challenge history; I first played in beta, but then only played off and on until around the end of Delve, when I finally got fully hooked. Sentinel - 18 Archnemesis - 26 Scourge - 27 Expedition - 24 Ultimatum - 36 Ritual - 35 (This sucked, I could have easily hit 36 but work got insane the last week of the league and I didn't get to close it out) Heist - 24 Harvest - 36 Delirium - 36 Metamorph - 36 Blight - 15 Legion - 15 Synthesis - 10 Betrayal - 22 (This is when I started playing seriously) Delve - 15 Incursion - 0 Bestiary - 0 Abyss - 0 Harbinger - 5 Legacy - 15 Breach - 6 Essence - 0 Prophecy - 0 Perandus - 0 Talisman - 0 Flashback - 0 (First League I played since Beta) Warbands/Tempest - 0; I had some progress towards a number of challenges but didn't complete any

Herstory Begins Now posted:I didn't read every change so I might've missed something but wardloop is still alive, right? According to my wardloop junkie friend, asides from the CWDT damage nerf, wardloop will likely be more expensive to optimize because of the divine change. 19-20% To Dust jewels will probably be super expensive, for instance. And it's a very heavily breakpoint-oriented build, so yeah. Elentor posted:People who go for 40/40 tend to go for it for most leagues and fill their hideouts with trophies I have a friend who plays this game solely for achievement hunting. He filled his hideout with a pile of trophies and now suffers significant frame drops every time he goes near his trophy pile. Don't be this friend.
