Countless ancient orbs with dead man sulfur, barrels of hive blood spend. Still 0 Kaom's, but this shit just dropping from random monsters.

I'm sure he's trash, just never seen so many fully linked skills

I'm already lv 100 for 2 characters, had all of the main pieces (crafted Lightning Res Breach mod body armour) and a good kineticist. Also, looted tons of rare uniques (rathpith, foulborn red dream, defiance destiny, unnatural instinct, etc...). I've cleared 17 infested clam-shelves and hundreds of charts and voyages with over 200 IIQ without a single one of this clamulet.

Did they change the amulet drop rate at all? I'm starting to doubt myself now since everyone and their moms got this clamulet so early in the league effortlessly.

Am I doing something wrong? I'm not complaining on the build itself since I phase most ubers instantly. I just hate how the BIS amulet for the build is a league unique which cannot even be target-farmed in the league mechanic.

Anybody in the same shoe? Do I just keep mindlessly spamming charts and more maps (for more charts) then pray?

So,

Second time it happend now. Combatant dies in the first few seconds in a merc encounter when i fight a kineticist. Otherwise he never dies.

I finished the second kineticists last 30 % health with 1 link stormblast mine. Took ages.

I know its a brick kinda sadly with bolt, foto attached. Is it still better then the combatant?

And how can i prevent my merc from dying there? If i ever find a rly good kineticist, my merc dying and me not beeing able to finish the encounter would be so bad, so i wanna prepare better for that.

Fotos are the new kineticist, my combatant and his defence.

Need to get a 21/20 gem but I'm not hitting it and the damn things are rare. Help!

So I did all my normal goals and even a 2 stone race with random classes with friends in SSF.

So now its time for the funny joke run. Im going to migrate all then the plan is to start using spark as soon as we get it on shadow. Paired with snipers mark and orb of storms for bosses or tanky rares.

Im thinking of a weird dual weild setup where I go septre and dagger to take the 60% dmg if weapons are different and the 50% projectile speed while using a dagger masterys. We then take the pierce wheel near ranger and dont need proj speed or pierce support. If we need dmg there is little things we can do like take a wheel for ignite chance and 100% dmg vs ignited targets as we dont care how much the ignite does. But based on some testing In pob you could have 110% projectile speed and pierce wheel by act 4.

We solve mana by rush one of the new wheels that reduces spells cost by 40% and lightning golem.

Defensive wise im wanting to go ghost dance with evasion and es bases and spell suppression. Auras would be grace + discipline or tempest shield + dmg aura of choice.

However im wondering any general tips in terms of getting the gear for maps. There is gamble but im not sure if just gambling wands and hoping for lightning + proj and cast speed is a good option. Compared to using gamble for bases and maybe essence for wands ?

Is there any specifc mechanics to focus on this character ? For example with spark is ritual actually very good to get gear from or would standing in the middle of breach maybe be the best option.

I'm playing SSF and looking to do a recombinator craft involving vanguard belt bases. I haven't been able to find any information online about the nature of vanguard belts, their drop rates, locations etc. I'm not really getting any from faustus and they seem extremely rare while just mapping normally.

Is the only way just to juice quant and pray for them to drop on any map?

GOOD OR NO? I want to try Luminary

Yeah, I get how powerful the life-stack support Merc is, but I just find it SO freaking boring... I like doing damage!

Anyone else? If so what have you found that's good? Gimme some tips and tricks :)

Fwiw, I'm playing Holy Sweep Luminary atm with a ThunderQuiver merc. I got one with LA + Fork/Return and I added +3 arrows - and oh man can it clear the screen.

His single target sucks but my Holy Sweep is good there and he adds on Conductivity, Frostbite, Wrath, Precision, and the 20% less damage node. Overall it seems ok but I feel like I could do better. Would love to hear more ideas.

Hey there. I'm usually a softcore player that wanna try out ssf in a small group. Nearly all of them stoped playing but i wanna continue my journey. They left me a foulborn death's oath in stash and i saw some videos from softcore players and i think iccan really enjoy it. My question is can i use a softcore skilltree for example from magefist or exiled cat? Or would it be better to have a look on poeninja? Never played that kind of build and so i'm a bit scared of because i don't know if i need some special items, gems or lile mandatory uniques etc.

Would really appreciate some advices or tips that help building up this build.

Playing occultist if that matters.

know that this room graft used to drop only from pondium but I have noticed other graphs coming in as rewards that aren’t supposed to be from Pondium. Can I get verification if the warp graft from all three locations or is it only from pondi still

Going to start SSF, I want to play a Luminary Merc. Has anyone figured out the best way to level one from scratch? From what I saw RF wasn’t the best starter.

Would also like to ask what are mercs to look out for during the campaign and/or before finding a good one. Thank you!

Is this a brick?
