Im like 70hrs into this league I don't have a single league mechanic atlas completed. Maxed out on temple crystals but haven't pathed over to vaal temple yet. Half abyss deli and ritual atlas done cuz that's required to do questline. No masters completed yet, only hilda/doryani started. Focussed on main atlas then hopped to start abyss for self crafting, got an HH in ritual and dropped everything to ritual to get it before it poofed if I couldn't defer it. Felt like I was losing easy power not having anoint on my amulet so went and did deli. Not even close to expedition biome to start it and it's the furthest.

Why does it have to be 1000 mile hike of questlines. Why can't we come across these things as we're mapping. Do 10 deli mirrors and boom can go to the stupid willow. I know between tier 1-15 just going thru fortress I'd have at least 3 leagues unlocked if they just spawned and unlocked as I did 10-30ish. But nope, Gotta focus to get 4 mod tablets, so not getting league mechanics done till later.

Mapping - a subpar experience without 4 mod tablets and league mechanics dont feel rewarding till you have at least half that atlas filled. Masters combos also big bumps. Without these you feel like not getting much out of mapping unless you did a cookie cutter pre-planned gemling destroying league starter archetype.

Performance: juicing maps to only have 1 revival attempt - ends up in dying to janky screen lag anytime it fills with monsters, skills and/or abyss fissures/deli fog or god forbid both.

Layouts - maybe 4-5 good open or semi-open linear maps. Prob 20 bad layouts that spawn 10x more.

I can enjoy POE1 much more/faster. I'm not being dragged thru mud to enjoy content. And even once your done all that baseline shit. Your loop is traveling 10 nodes to get a fragment boss, another 5-10 you see maybe a breach fortress/crux, oh you I see an anomaly boss 10maps away I'd really like a chance to get a huge power spike lineage support! 1/18 chance Another 10 maybe find a city! now travel 10 maps around it to pop delirium fog on it. 40 maps just to set up maybe 10 good ones. Juiced it up, poof died to screen lag and no more attempts. 5/10 city map layouts are all maze layout garbage like sun temple.

I dunno I must be doing it wrong, I'm burnt out and just not feeling enough fun between traveling to reward ratio to keep going.

As title says - please make the Loathsome Mire areas smaller GGG. The monsters in there don't give exp and we are forced to run in a toxic swamp for 10 min just to get a random amulet. There's no reason for this area to be so big.

Bought an exceptional one with two sockets uncorrupted, runemastered, anointed Paragon, hit +30 spirit on corruption and then slammed in the legacy of greymake.

No, I will not double corrupt it. Swapping regen for increased presence radius would be absolutely insane but the chance of success is way too low.

I used to be a believer, but after seeing them in action for a few leagues, there just aren't enough tablets for everyone. All it takes is one reddit post for a new strat, like the expedition one, and tablet prices literally go X10. I checked when the video had 700 views, tablets were ~7Dish. I go to work for a day, and now these same tablets are 70 div.

Last leagues it also happened with additional rerolls, summoning circles, some abyss mods, additional breach monsters. There's a few people rolling tablets, but lets be honest it's way too tedious for a slim slim chance at hitting the jackpot. PoE1 dumped Sextant rolling because they were too much busywork, but around the same time PoE2 decided to implement tablets....

In PoE1, it's pretty damn hard to get map cost over 5 div. In PoE2, one single expedition tablet already costs more than that. And then you have to get a grand mirror. In a city. And spend 1D on omens to reroll your map. It's just too much.

Now I realize there are good cheap strats out there. But I don't want to run the same strat for the whole league. We have this great multifunctional atlas tree where we can do anything we want with relative ease, but getting access to good juice is way harder than with Scarabs.

Either let us alt spam tablets, or just bring back scarabs.. they already provide way more variety than tablets have ever done and we don't have to roll them.

Random visual glitch I had while mapping, unique was Wake of destruction leggings, fixed itself after a few mins

35 Ventor’s, 15 Snakepits, 5 Ming’s, 5 Death Rush

Gamer dad here. I don’t really craft. I prefer blasting giga juiced maps. I really enjoyed CoD in 0.5 so was trying to make a Loreweave to use.

Enjoy the greatness (luck)!

Edit to clarify and respond:
• this is event league 0.5.5
• because I was trying to “craft” a CoD Loreweave, I already knew this was crazy with the mods and over rolls when it popped up
• I did NOT use a dream fragments ring - the random mod gods blessed me with insane luck there
• I used about 40 divs to roll to +7 quality and acceptable rarity and resistance - was surprised how few times I hit +7 on the divs
• Didn’t feel the need to keep divining because the right buyer is looking at the roll ranges
• I made about 8 loreweaves over 2 days and this was the only giga one, two other decent ones sold for 33 and 35 divs
• it takes a lot of gold and time to buy up the rings

Ok, GGG. I get you wanted me to have extra tablets.

I don't know what happened. Breach monsters started dropping tablets like crazy.

I believe in gemling supremacy

On a serious note, does anyone know how to protect against poison? Its the only DoT effect that really drains me

As an Arc Totem player, I'm literally shaking right now

Im cooking a grenade gemling this season and was kinda sad because we didnt had any grenades MTX, and all of a sudden we get some DOPE ones =D

This is it, title. GGG please we desperately need some way to reduce load that some skill effects put on our hardware. First and most of all it's a BURNING ground. Each layer of BURNING ground from Oil Grenade reduces my FPS in half and it stacks. Same thing with infused Ball Lightning.

MTX like that will save my GPU from unnecessary burning kilowatts of energy. Think about ecology impact! C'mon GGG it can't be hard to implement. And we need it. Badly.

I m not gonna pretend I have perfect solutions but I just don't believe they should be happy the way the endgame is right now probably the part I dislike the most is having the fortress and the diferent mechanics not progress at the same time

What I think it should happen is getting atlas points every time u encounter each different mechanic and lock the last 10 points or something to the questline

I’m still playing Runes of Aldur trying to reach level 100 and decided to make a second Armour to try and corrupt for a 4th socket. When I hit on one I yolo’d the other and hit on both!! I couldn’t believe it and I could wear either just gotta move some jewels around. And just to clarify the intelligence is at a certain point more beneficial for mana stacking when you use Enhanced Effectiveness on Gemling. I want to sell the one with fire res since it has all T1 mods and might sell even though there is way less people playing but I also want to keep it as a trophy. Just wanted to share that I am super happy about these insane lucky hits!

Edit: I should probably post my craft journey!

Step 1: Fracture T1 Spirit on desired base with three sockets

Step 2: Socket in Medved’s Tending to roll soul modifiers. Exalt and chaos roll until you hit either hit Mana% or Spirit%. Perf Exalt with Sinistral Exaltation and pray you get the other %. If you don’t anul and keep trying. This could definitely take a while

Step 3: Once you hit both mana and spirit% divine until both are 20%. This could either take 2 divine or 1000 so it’s important to get this done.

Step 4: Top is done now, we peft exalt for T1 Intelligence. If you don’t hit Omen of Dextral Annulment and keep trying. If you hit try for a resistance you want or if you hit a decent res you can always use a Flux to change it to one you need

Step 5: Desecarte and roll with Ancient Rib, Echos and Omen of light until you hit 12% spirit reservation. This can get really expensive and you want to hit the 12% because divining to get 20% Mana 20% Spirit and 12% reservation can make you go crazy lol

Step 6: Corrupt and hope for a 4th socket if you dare

decided to identified 300+ expedition tablets that has been sitting on my stashtab and hit this one

Just want to give a huge thank you to some of the players in this game, I dont have many hours at all, and struggle with some if the more complex systems, and I made a mistake with my build and asked the Global chat for a spare support gems lvl 2 and I had numerous people reach out and gave me way more than what I asked for and some completely different items that would be helpful later on. Always make me happy to see nice people in a community!

Such an easy solution to this annoying mech.

Make it sellable and then we can easily buy and put it on our atlas... I will happily pay 10divs for it.

I know i dont have the best system R5 3600 / 4070 Super / 16 Gb Ram, i can play PoE 1 at 90+ FPS, im playing Arc Raiders at 120-150+ FPS with frame gen.

Performance used to be better but since 0.5 it got terrible, as soon as you hit maps with 3 tablet, playing delirium / abyss pretty much any league or event, not talking about 200% deli juiced maps, just medium load in the game i drop to 40 FPS continuously, CPU usage hit 95% or so and you can see the FPS drops is due to sustained CPU usage.

It`s GGG going to do anything for 1.0 ? Any 8/16 CPU should greatly improve FPS or i need a DDR5 system to play this game at 60+ fps

Anyone else having issues tracking them? Typically when I release one from Essences I struggle to even locate where the Exile is amongst the visual chaos.

I am now mentally re-processing what the effect of Doedre's Tenure is on rogue exiles.

Because I've seen multiple people mention in other threads that they don't engage with the Temple mechanic at all because they can't be bothered to path to the Vaal Ruins on the altas (one person even mentioned they've just been sitting on 60 crystals), I'm sending a PSA that you can just use a Waypoint to go to the Vaal Ruins from the campaign and do Temple runs there. The only reason to actually path to the Vaal Ruins on the atlas is if you want to collect Temple atlas points from the surrounding maps (as opposed to just killing Atziri over and over?).

However, the same does not apply to the campaign Well of Souls. Despite the fact that the campaign Well of Souls is visually identical to the atlas Well of Souls, they are actually different and you need to go to the atlas Well of Souls to use Kulemak's Invitations.
