Failtier

Title says it, I am running hyper juiced Ritual in cities, but so far, this strategy yields absolutely nothing. The game feels overall extremely unrewarding for me, probably quitting for now. Atlas is fully unlocked, main and ritual, item rarity is 100% (but doesn't affect omens anyway), I run city maps with Jado for Partial Translations and Unexpected Missions.

Last map, I had 9 rerolls, 303% omen chance from 3 tablets each 70% omen chance (probably doesn't really get much higher than that), 1 unique tablet for rerolls, and after rerolling 9 times, I only hit bubblegum omens, nothing big. Ever. It doesn't justify the risk I am taking for this in any way, because Ritual is notoriously messy

Last league, I was able to make absurd amounts of currency just by farming fracturing orbs, each 26 divs. Running the map twice with visions of paradise allowed me to eventually farm like 1200 divs for my gear. It was pretty decent and would have carried me easily to lvl 100, if I had not burned out before.

This league, I finished the main atlas within a week, made some decent progress, but gear was prohibitively expensive. In week 3, I thought: why not getting into crafting finally? Everyone says they make good money with that.

But after spending the entire weekend to understand crafting and the market, looking at production costs and potential profits, with fully crafted bows and jus

I've been searching an hour or so already to find a database where I have all base items sorted by base stats. For instance, I want gloves that have the highest ES, I click on it, and it shows those ones with the highest ES on top, or ES/evasion hybrid, or whatever. I am pretty sure that this exists, I found it in some guide a while ago, but I really cannot remember.

The problem with POE2DB is that while it shows the base items, there is absolutely no way of sorting them.

Any help would be appreciated.

Bear with me, this is going to be a rant, but I am somewhat upset about the start into the league. I've been using a controller since 0.1, and even though M+K is much more appropriate for efficiency, I simply love how the game plays with a good controller. It's the game I want to play whenever I want to hold a controller. That's a big compliment actually.

This league has been a blast to far, the new atlas and quest system is a significant upgrade, and I am having my best time with the game I ever had in any league. But once I reached Act 4 and saw the new trade UI (see below), it seemed really out of place considering the high quality content that we otherwise got in the league.

Not just t

I was on my way to lvl 100, not too far away, and farming for my last gear. I am a relatively new player, never reached lvl 100, and skipped 1 1/2 leagues; 0.2 was just generally pretty terrible and 0.3, I did not see the point in playing beyond the new league. So Sanctification as a mechanism was entirely new to me and I never paid real attention to it.

Needed to buy an amulet because my current one is just functional, yet the one I wanted to snipe was gone. It was listed for 8 days, but that night, someone must have bought it. Bad luck. So I was like f* it, I will never be done, just two levels ahead. Bought this one amulet which was pretty much BIS for me, imported it to Path of Buildin

Title says it, it's not just the citadel bosses (with everything juiced up, boss atlas fully specced) that seems utterly broken, but even REGULAR bosses. It was the second time now that I was one-shot by Aurelian, the Grand Adjudicator. It is usually with bosses that have two phases where you cannot delete them because they force a second phase. What happens is: I freeze them, they become invulnerable, they thaw and release a one-shot that kills you.

If it is in ANY way telegraphed, fair enough. But with one IS NOT telegraphed at all; this time, he created the circle (in which you get trapped) and I dodged VERY FAR away to be entirely outside of the circle, but whatever the heck hit me, de

I saved up almost 150 divs without using the temple (which keeps collapsing and being annoying) for a couple of days now. And I want to get one of the lineage gems for Ice Shot to enhance my damage. I am now lvl 94 and switched to a crit build a while ago.

If I would rely on Path of Building, then Rakiata would be the clear winner. But I understand that it is only relevant at all if the enemy has resistances; most of the trash (T16 maps) I clear without problems, and occasionally there is a boss that requires me to actually fight instead of deleting in seconds. My damage isn't even that high, around 60k but ranging to 100-200k with Headhunter buffs.

Because this is such a huge investment,

As I understand, the current inflation is not only caused by div temple farming but also by the lack of exalt sinks in the game. I am lvl 91 now and indeed, exalts are useless besides juicing maps which is IMO the completely wrong direction of the game. Exalts always used to be the base currency in PoE2, but with the introduction of different currency tiers (base, greater, perfect) no one will ever use base currencies for crafting anymore. They basically rot in your inventory.

So I was asking myself, why can't we have mechanics for guaranteed modifiers and more deterministic crafting using the omens mechanic?

Let's say we introduce two types of omens, something like an Omen of Greater Pote

Literally dropped in the first hours of the game. Perfectly fits to my bear shapeshifter build. Nice that uniques are now actually useful.

As a disclaimer, I am on board since the first Tinto Talk and I followed every single one of them because I was so excited about the game. But after playing the game as the Ottomans for 6 hours, I felt somewhat dissatisfied; why in the first place did I select the Ottomans? And why will I now abandon this campaign and wait for further fixes? The simple answer is: I am (or at least was) deeply invested in history, so for me the game is primarily supposed to be a history simulator, and not a sandbox. It is well-known that the content lead Pavía has a PhD in history, so calling the game simply a “sandbox” does not do justice to the efforts that were put into making the game as historically accu

I am really enjoying the game and think that this patch has brought the game into the right direction. Sprinting saves a lot of time and makes clearing maps much less tedious. I am fine with the full knockdown on hit and the punishment. But for someone who really needs fine control in a fast-paced game like this, the end-sprint-animation causes a lot of issues. It needs to go, no replacement.

First of all, I have always used a controller and it felt great. But with patch 0.3.0, I noticed that often when performing a dodge roll during combat, and sometimes also outside of combat—seemingly randomly—the character performs this step animation. In combat, it feels absolutely freaking terribl

Mark mentioned something about having to convert your tabs into a Merchant's Stash Tab so you can participate in the asynchronous trade system. And he mentioned something about tabs bought before The Third Edict.

Now, I bought a bunch of premion stash tabs in 0.1 and 0.2, in-game, but when going to my Account on pathofexile2.com, I cannot find this option anywhere. Am I missing something?

I am currently having an academic discussion about the population numbers for sub-Saharan Africa in the year 1300 CE. The argument is that Africa did not have a high population density historically, which is why figures around 50-60M. for that time period are way too high.

I want to contest this notion. The problem is that numbers are very hard to get, in particular when looking for academic sources such as peer-reviewed books or journals. Any number before 1900 CE would be useful, but the closer it gets to 1300 CE, the better.

I would very much appreciate if anyone could help me finding academic sources on this to have Africa represented the way it should be. Thanks!
