It's her league.

>Mamba unnerfed for poison
FYI if you've never played Mamba it is literally one of the best skills in the game. Go Pathfinder for prolif (fuck Trickster) and eventually end up with an immortal 10,000 HP/second perma life flask uptime God character that can sit in Sirus storms and hit dot cap on ubers. Once you get progenesis with all of your flask effect you basically cannot die.

Seriously. I played it in Settlers and it is fucking retarded. You get two of the daggers where all damage can poison, craft hits cannot be evaded, get the blind-crit keystone, and stack as many low tolerances as possible. It starts strong and becomes OP. It is incredible for doing simulacrums, ultimatum, expedition, or anything that prolif is good on.

>feeling a little nervous that some streamers are talking about builds similar to my starter

thank you ziz

So reliquarian.
Are we back?

I for one am looking forward to exalt slamming while leveling. It's one of the few good lessons they learned from 2. Exalt slams are fun.

>>559023880
You could probably get easy 100% chance to avoid elemental ailments with Kiloava's Bluster. There's like 70% on the tree and it rolls on eater/exarch boots too.

>>559024109
If I hadn't played Mamba twice already I would be league starting it. So many retards won't even read the updated patch notes to see it was unnerfed.

>>559024109
dual wield sucks though
I'd rather go CI trickster with bino's and aurora

The most popular way to play conversion Ele Hit right now is with Avatar of Fire which is just 50% of cold and lightning to fire with Combat Focus. That is currently at 40m DPS with middling gear and Paradoxica. 100% fire and cold conversion would be 70m easily lmao

>>559024212
Kiloava's bluster was fun for Gambler in Phrecia.

>>559024218
Dual Wield is what allows you to hit dot cap on ubers. If you don't care about that you can get a shield, but with PF you become extremely tanky with a basic flask set up and when you get progenesis + perma life flask I don't know what can actually kill you. I was tanking uber shaper slams while sitting in beams and on cold dots. I could just run into exarch balls as much as I wanted.

>>559024221
I am hoping it gets nerfed, but it won't. The problem is I don't wanna play ele hit but I want a fucking paradoxica and they will be like 20d for a decent one if everyone and their mom is playing this skill.

>>559024420
My goal was to farm that flask for a build this league. How was it unnerfed?

POOP

>>559024608
They updated the patch notes and basically made it so Mamba is not a good attacking skill anymore but is the same for poison. The issue is mamba just randomly had dumb damage effectiveness + attack speed so was a generically good way to deliver damage. These changes lower ability to use it as an attack but reverted all the nerfs to poison including low tolerance.

Mamba is genuinely fucking incredible as a poison skill since it is the opposite of all poisons. 0 ramp time. One hit and you're doing max poison damage.

>>559025208
Yes, the only nerf it now has overall is it attacks slower. Kind of annoying, but you can only poison them once anyways.

People debate trickster vs pathfinder. I think PF is better personally, but as a league starter it definitely is because you get prolif from your ascendancy and don't need a t0 unique that everyone wants to buy to dust. Use the amulet that gives you a ton of crit but makes your crits do no extra damage (it still works for perfect agony).

quick question, if I have infused toxins allocated as assassin does this also count as 100% poison chance, or do I still need to acquire poison chance on top of all damage being allowed to poison

I dunno how this fact consistently eludes the POE community, but there's a gigantic gap in how much you give a fuck about balance and how much devs give a fuck about balance.

A smart person would realize that the Sanctum gameplay is simply too divorced from the regular Path of Exile and that vast majority of players will simply never want to interact with it any more than they wanted to interact with Heist which penalized you for killing enemies.
A GGG dev will attempt to "solve" this "problem" by reverting then nerfs to how many divines that piece of shit mechanic can print

>Energy Blade: Quality now provides Buff grants 0-10% increased Attack Speed (replacing Buff grants 0-5% more Maximum Energy Shield).

>>559028963
No. Normally only physical or chaos damage can poison. This allows all damage the possibility of poisoning, but you need 100% poison chance. People normally just use the heist dagger with the same effect.

the base skill gives you +X added damage of each elemental type, and then chooses one damage type while turning off the ability to do damage with the other types.
the new bloodline ascendancy converts all sources of "added" damage to a single element (cold or lightning). this means the 2 "wrong" damage types are converted to the right one. so you just have to use the jewels to make sure the gem chooses the right damage type every time, and you're enjoying 2 extra lines of added damage that you were never meant to have.

Ele hit and ele hit of the spectrum.
Prismatic burst does not "add" damage, the line says "deals" so it doesn't work.
It also doesn't work on "adds" lines on weapons btw, those are local but mislabeled.

Shockwave Totems with Astral Projector was the most fun I've had with totems, those fuckers would target things 2 screens away. But the damage never kept up with the statcreep

It is fine in PoE2. In actuality, once you get honor resist in PoE2 it basically no longer matters. Even on melee characters. EVEN ON MY THORNS CHARACTER THAT LITERALLY HAD TO GET HIT TO DO DAMAGE and it was a non-issue and I even would purposefully run into the bosses big aoe circle laser thing to just kill him.

PoE1's is fucking awful. Sanctum probably needs to just be removed.

>>559031834
No? It is a choice.

You can put in relics that are defensive and help to cap your honor resist, give you more honor, make enemies deal less damage, heal more honor, etc. If you're really good or can one shot everything you opt to put in ones that increase movement speed or rewards or more merchant items.

It is totally viable for them to make you decide between defensive and offensive/speed set ups for the trial. Most players should just go with defensive as they just wanna clear it, but farmers go for max speed because they don't really need much resistance.
It's basically like building a character. You can opt for more defense, more speed, more damage, or a combine them to make something more well rounded.

This is why I emphasized I'm not doing insane shit. Build making in PoE is more like putting together a few different lego sets into a diorama. It is not creating something from raw lego bricks. You just combine a few defensive layers and then a way of offensive scaling and you generally are fine.

You do you, and if you're new that is one thing. I am referring to people, even streamers, who have 5k+ hours and still just copy a build guide point for point including mistakes or suboptimal shit because they never look at the PoB.

Nah, it is definitely a shitty mechanic that no one really enjoys except for when it shits out a ton of divs. You basically have to bribe players to do it. The Trial in PoE2 feels more organically connected to the game. Probably unfairly since it is where you traditionally do your first ascendancy, but I dunno man, PoE1's sanctum is some weird shit in a corner you gotta talk to a lady to access. 99% of the time I never even unlock the teleport there.

thats the real problem with poe2. if they truly managed to keep all the garbage there I would even support poe2's existance (not economically) but I know they dont extend that same good faith to me.

this is true for every single farming strat in the game. people will always, without fail, gravitate to things that actually give them shit for their time and ignore things that are just not worth their time and sanctum is no different in this regard. however the major difference is that sanctum is primarily a solo thing and when its good it cuts in groupnigger pockets HARD. its in groupnigger best interest that sanctum remains irrelevant, even more so since it makes it easier to corner terror/osin prices.

>mamba/venom gyre poison assassin
originally I wanted to play nightgrip ward stacker cobra lash, but the follow-through nerf fucking annihilated that making the build lose like 800% increased damage. I still want to try a ward stacker but without cobra lash these look like the next best options. maybe all damage poisons elemental hit or something idk.
>herald of agony champion+lycia profane ground)
this build looks really fun and I actually think a Spiritual Aid version where you go poison holy strikes+spiritual aid could be decent depending on what the numbers are, you already wear triad grip to chaos minion damage as well. if holy strikes ends up sucking there's always cyclone and ball lightning as fallbacks. On the one hand this build is heavily reliant on cluster jewels, on the other they're clusters literally nobody else but this build wants so they're always very cheap
>boring SRS/specter/etc minion build as guardian
+4 minion levels is like 75% more damage, guardian buffed in general, very easy and safe league start with no surprises

I don't like groupfags either anon, but the difference between Sanctum and almost everything else is the map agnosticism that Sanctum has. Heist is similar, and I think it is the same. Those mechanics especially stick out as "We need to make them more profitable than literally everything else or no one will play them"

>this is true for every single farming strat in the game. people will always, without fail, gravitate to things that actually give them shit for their time and ignore things that are just not worth their time
Only the last line is true. If something is literally so unprofitable that it is fucking you over, then people will not do it. Otherwise there are countless strats people love to do that are not as consistently profitable as strong boxes, but still loved. Things like:
>Boss killing to get rare drops
>Destructive play invitation loops
>Essence spam
>Crop rotation
>Div card farming (apothecaries)
>Alter spam on Jungle Valley
>etc etc etc
If there was a #1 farm in the game some people will still not do it because they enjoy other farms more. I just don't meet anyone who says Santcum is fun. They just talk about profit. I find Destructive play FUN. I like chaining guardian maps and doing invitations and killing bosses and getting all the loot. I even like doing Silo memes.

>>559034383
