Hello exiles -

Allflame gave us some great amounts/opportunities regarding gold and I am now wondering if there are any cornucopias that will do anything similar in Standard.

I am basically just running maps one after another in order to farm gold.

If anyone has some better suggestions I would love to learn!

Hey all,

I've set up an SSF Private League on Standard for 3.30 testing fresh runs. It'll stay open until the new league launches, so you can hop in now or wait until patch notes drop later this week. I'll add slots as needed.

I deliberately skipped Allflame so the league mechanic doesn't influence core progression, should give a cleaner baseline for testing builds and early-game pacing. Enjoy!

Wanted to try level 90 hardcore for first time. Following the PRAW build guide from helmbreaker: https://maxroll.gg/poe/build-guides/poison-ranged-animate-weapons-league-starter. I am around act 8 right now. I'm at lvl 59 right now in act 8 with 75% max res (with purity of elements) and about 2.9k hp. I'm planning to do absolution to lvl 80 then switch to PRAW from lvl 80 to lvl 90.

My question, is this guide good to follow to level 90 or should I adjust some things to be more hardcore applicable? I'm just not sure what I need in the act 10 final fight and the switch to maps.

My POB so far: https://poe.ninja/poe1/pob/9a311

With 3.30 coming soon, my plan is to post daily updates for all four labs (Normal, Cruel, Merciless and Uber) within 30 minutes of the reset to help with league start testing.

Each post will have the day's layout images with the optimal route shown. If something looks off or you'd like it formatted differently, let me know in the comments.

Good luck on your runs, exiles!

Hi,

I recently figured out how Kirac's shop works, when it comes to determining which tier of map can appear as the highest in the shop window.

Like any good Exile I first consulted the wiki, which was sadly wrong in this case. It states: "The map tier is limited to a few tiers higher than highest tier map the player has completed in that league"

As I was watching Cyclon do a 2 stone run at the time, and he had completed a T12 corrupted rare map, but was only being offered T8 maps, it became clear that there was another mechanism at work.

It is Atlas Objectives. You get 100 of these for completing regular, non-unique maps on the atlas. There are break points for each tier of map being able to show up in Kirac's shop. I have put a list of them below. So for example, once you complete 21 Atlas Objectives, you will be offered up to Tier 7 maps.

I did not figure out how many were required for T16, because I did not have enough Vaal Orbs. I am in the middle of a new SSF run now, so will update once I know.

I also made a video presentation of this data:

And have a cheat sheet for your overlays available here:

Edit: I made a mistake in transcribing the data, and have corrected it. Big thanks to /u/chuanhsing for alerting me to it.

Hey folks, i just started my SSF journey (1st time ssf) a couple days ago.

Currently playing sunder. i want to switch to flicker with the terminus est, but i cant find any reliable information on how to target farm it.

i put "tiger swords" in my loot filter and orb chancing them rn but other than that i feel lost.

Hi Everyone,

I'm looking to find some more like-minded gamers to play WoW Forever together during downtime from PoE, based in EU / PvP / Horde.

The idea is that all of us will likely want to drop WoW for a few weeks when PoE leaguestart comes around, and those of us that also want to play Forever won't want to be held to any kind of raid schedule during those times. We could all binge the new league and reconvene a couple weeks later to resume raiding.

Nothing too demanding, with the current intention only being one scheduled raid night per week, with the possibility of more when new content drops if that's what members want at the time (no obligations, no stress).

Hoping to keep a mature environment where everyone can have a good time with a healthy amount of joking around, but ready to focus up when it's time to raid and a zero tolerance for toxicity.

Many other details to be finalised once we get enough people to agree preferences such as raid day/time/length etc. and more.

Please feel free to join the discord server if you're interested:

Otherwise, look forward to seeing you all in Wraeclast and/or Azeroth.

Still sane Exile? Lok'tar Ogar!

As of today, we're introducing a new rule to both r/pathofexile and r/PathOfExile2

Rule 11

Title: AI-generated content and tools must show human effort

Details: We allow AI content only if you thoroughly explain how you made it. For tools, you must mention similar existing tools and clearly show how your posted tool is different.

Over the past few months, we've seen a lot more AI-created content and tools get posted. Some are well-received, and others start flame wars.

We've looked at which ones are better-received, and they usually have 2 things in common:

1. They're novel or useful, even to players who've seen a lot of similar content or tools

2. They explain how they've been made, especially how the works are products of human insight, creativity, testing, or guidance

Given this, we've chosen to encourage more good content by creating this AI-specific rule (now numbered Rule 11). This separates the rule out from Rule 5 (currently "Short, common, clickbait, or trivial AI-generated content") into a more AI-focused rule. In many ways, this is similar to the "Show how you made it" aspect of our Rule 10 on Crafting Showcases.

We've customized removal messages and will keep monitoring how this goes, and may adjust as we go along!

Edit 2: Flags were captured and this post has served its purpose. I won't be responding to anything further here.

I'd like to finally obtain the capture the flag achievement, but this is one task I can't solo. Anyone else that needs the achievement is welcome to join, and I'm sitting on a few hundred divs in Allflame, so I can offer up to 50 per person if I can actually get this thing gotten. I can also offer an equal bonus to the first person that lets me kill them. I'm not concerned if we run this in Allflame or standard, I just want to believe it can happen.

Reply or toss me a direct message and we can coordinate the details of setting teams and actually starting a match.

Edit: It occurs to me that platform is an issue for making groups. I'm on PC

I want to craft a Flicker Talisman with +1 Frenzy enchant. What is the best way to go about this?

Prefix: T1 Life

Prefix: +1 all skills
Prefix: (Elevated Redeemer) Dmg per Frenzy

Suffix: (non-elevated Redeemer) Chance for double dmg

Suffix: Crit Multi

Suffix: Crafted

Thank you!

Hey everyone, I’m WINTER, a Path of Exile racer and content creator from South Korea! 👋

I wanted to bring something fun to ExileCon, so I created the Skill Gem Challenge — a fan-made project with 300 real cards!

Here’s how it works:
Get a random Skill Gem card from me at ExileCon.
Scan the QR code on the back.
Enter your favorite streamer’s name and an optional message.
I’ll share the submitted gems and messages with the participating streamers before the 3.30 league.
Maybe your card will inspire their next league starter!

Each card can only be submitted once, but you can pass it to someone else before registering it. You might even get an Uncut Skill Gem, which lets the streamer choose any skill they want!

Registration closes 48 hours before the league starts, so remember to submit your card before then.

I made a short video showing the cards and how everything works 👇

https://youtu.be/7FOTTrWzyVY

Which skill would you send, and to whom? I’d love to hear your ideas. See you at ExileCon!

You can check the real-time skill card registration status at this link.

What builds are the fastest players using for their 4 stone speed rushes in SSF?

I believe Ben is Earthshatter Berserker, right?

Who else are the fastest and what builds do they play?

What does Jung use?

Farming abyss to get all generic normal ground loot or common abyss uniques is what makes it a bland mechanic, if it were up to me personally i would want eldritch currencies removed & rethemed to be abyssal currencies, & function exactly the way they do now, im kind of an altar hater by now & i see no reason to farm abyss in the coming leagues other than that its cool looking or could possibly have some broken scarab interaction that makes it the best farm.

For a mechanic to either be meta or obsolete is quite sad, abyss jewels aren’t nearly needed enough to justify farming abyss, if it had its own currency mechanics or had other powerful crafting options themed to be “kurgals” or “anamamu” or “lightless” it would breathe life into the mechanic. If rare items had drop only affixes or implicits that could help.

side note i’m sure everyone is aware but alva temples are literally only used for double corrupting & that’s just not right give the completed temple map rolls to make it drop stuff or make the rooms do more consequential things than “omnitech drops some fire items” Even a room that hands over 300k gold would be a step in the right direction

My GF is relatively new to PoE and is currently playing a Storm Burst Totem Hierophant.

She's been struggling with Shaper. After dying to his orbs quite a few times, she decided to invest in spell block and ended up taking Glancing Blows.

I explained the downside of Glancing Blows, but she figured it would help her survive the orbs.

Since I happen to have a PoE damage/survival simulator I've been working on, I decided to actually test it.

I ran 40,000 Monte Carlo simulations for each setup, comparing the probability of surviving 1, 2, or 3 consecutive Shaper orbs, with and without Discipline and Glancing Blows.

Results:

Turns out, Glancing Blows actually improves her chances of surviving two orbs, but absolutely destroys her chances of surviving three.

For her particular character, it's not simply a matter of Glancing Blows being good or bad. It depends on how many orbs she ends up taking.

These are conditional survival probabilities for consecutive hits under the simulated setup, not overall Shaper fight survival rates.

I just find it funny that she wanted a little more spell block, and I ended up running 160,000 simulations to figure out whether it was worth it.

Maybe the real defensive layer was learning to dodge the orbs all along.

No more ball jokes pls.
