Tips? if you want to play that in the coming league the axe is going to be expensive, and the neck is going to be VERY expensive. Breaches are rare as hell compared to the previous leagues, and unless the patch notes mention serious changes from how it was on beta, everything from them will be quite expensive.

Raider would be my top choice, move speed is king for Cyclone, but Berserker would be a close second.

You can totally play without the xoph's neck also, its an upgrade for sure, but i still managed to get to all the way to t16s on my atlas without having one. Also i've played it as zerker in two leagues now and it works great for my tastes.

I was aware of doing lots of short-range whirling blades to speed around the map (its a very smooth playstyle with a high attack speed raider, a la old howa ranger).

I was not aware of leap slam working in a box within the screen, making diagonal pythagorean movement more optimal (a la Civ/SMAC movement).

Yeah I figured out the WB thing a while ago just through spamming the skill, but kinda just assumed a lot of people did the same. The only thing I knew with leap was that using it with 'attack in place' made it feel better to use.

This is the part I liked too. But I'm gonna wait for the notes before I get too bummed out about it. I dont see them ignoring incoming damage with the removal of instant leech, so hopefully the tweaks to damage + nerfed slayer leech ends up being less noticeable if you dont take vaal pact.

So this dude ranked #289 saw fit to rope me by stalling every move for as long as possible, for over an HOUR AND A HALF.

Finally, he attacks and his timer and the attack freeze in place and he chucks his first emote of the game at me, "Oops". Now we're been stuck like this for another half hour.

I'm curious if that was just an accident caused from him being so pathetic, or if he actually induced some exploit, because I've seen things like that before (I remember rapidly tapping mana and undoing could crash a server for a few days).

Man this new league looks weird.

I don't remember a league launch where stash tabs went on sale at the same time, it's usually the following week. But whatever it's often enough that you should literally never buy any stash stuff unless its on sale.

From watching random streamer takes, apparently int stacking has been nerfed and it's a wash or something? I don't remember who claimed that but they didn't elaborate anyway just mentioned it in passing when reading that line of the manifesto.

Whispering Ice took so much investment for what was uhh.. I guess 'acceptable' clear but nothing crazy like Int stacking wanders or whatever else. This doesn't really seem significant enough to get excited about. This is coming from someone who likes playing WI builds and I spent like 50-60ex on my last one. I enjoyed playing it but it was far from the fastest clearer/bosskiller I've played.

We all use this: https://pathofbuilding.community/

It basically lets you build characters outside the game and its been updated with most of the new changes. So you can look at builds from past leagues and then apply the new changes to them and see how hard they got hit

To add to that, there are several streamers/youtubers who put out pretty good newbie guides. Zizaran usually makes guides you can do ssf, so if you play them in trade league they are usually very easy to gear up, and should get you through most of the games content. I've used a couple of his guides to start before when im feeling exceptionally lazy.

His POBs tend to have leveling setups for multiple stages, and sometimes detailed notes on which gems to use along the way and why. Regardless of how you feel about streamers or content creators, I 100% recommend Ziz guides if you are lazy and/or new and just want something that will work.

I'm watching the Asmongold interview and Chris said something interesting that nobody seems to have mentioned in here. One of the NPCs in Expedition is a currency exchange NPC! Presumably this means GGG set up something more usable than the current vendor currency deals.

" I meant to clarify how this works during the interview but things moved on and I forgot to come back to it.

Each of the four vendors wants four types of runed artifacts, which are progressively rarer than the last.

Gwennen, Tujen and Rog will accept their types in exchange for their services.

Dannig accepts his type in exchange for a variety of things:

He will trade his ones at 1:1 for the other vendors' ones. You can do this an unlimited amount. He takes *his* artifacts and offers you *theirs*. The purpose of this is to help in situations where you are short some.
He offers some special deals of limited amounts of other vendors' ones at a discount. This is a reason to reroll his inventory
He can sell logbooks, rarely
He can sell the currency items that are used for rerolling the vendors. These are not traded 1:1."

One of the first podcasts he was one he said they didn't want to lose 30% of their revenue and then released expedition and lost 30% of their revenue and someone said " hey I thought the idea was to NOT do this"

i'm paraphrasing off the top of my head but it was pretty close to this.
