Mercs (similar to animate guardian) only have 1 life. That means if your merc/ag dies in a map/boss zone/etc, they will not respawn for that map/zone. This will cause your map/boss encounter to brick. I'm only pointing this out because merc deaths can significantly hinder your atlas progression.

I was hoping to league start trial of ancestors league on ssf. With all these ascendency changes, im not sure what build to league start that will help me to comfortably acquire the first 2 voidstones and handle most league content without too much difficulty.

The past couple leagues the typical starters were: RF, Cold Dot, SRS, Boneshatter,Light/Cold Arrow
Im not opposed to those builds, but with these ascendency changes, im not sure how viable they are now. I was thinking of maybe starting some kind of trap/miner/totem before the patch notes, but im not even confident in those any more.

What are your guys' thoughts/suggestions/recommendations?

Ive got about $2k coming in and was looking to make some smart 3-6month plays (warrants, commons, or units if they are worth it) that i can earn ~50-100%. Ive got some prospects ive been eyeing such as : SOACw, PSTHw, SNPR.u, CCXXw. Im not going to lie, im somewhat new to trading but i've been reading and researching nonstop. I've made some bad plays in the past with shares so i want to now minimize my risk with near floor value SPAC's with huge future potential. Ive got about 80x shares of GRAF at ~$30 and 70x SHLL at around $51(going to probably sit on this till merger). I recently invested about 125 in PSTHw and about 200x in SNPR.u

If anyone has suggestions on the best route to go

I was curious if GGG was going to continue the trend of releasing more recipes for the public to discover. It has been quite a few patches without any mention of new recipes. The secrecy of these always fascinated me so I hope this is a continued trend for future patches/expansion*

So i posted this thread about a week ago, not knowing the patch notes or what they entail. All of these builds in question are nerfed a bit (herald of purity switching from flat phys to %more phys, and cyclone losing stun immunity) but not significantly enough to make it nonviable by any means. Ive been exploring some alternate builds such as necromancer or a VD build (never tried it) Most of the builds i listed should be easy to assemble as a starter build (minus the hallow palm technique build; but its a build i would consider end-game with min/maxed items and proper dex stacking.) I typically dont make more than 1 or 2 builds a league so i would like to mainly invest into my builds

I am debating on making a tanky end game melee build

​

the choices i have are:

facebreaker cyclone surrender build

non facebreaker cyclone surrender build

or hallow palm technique cyclone/tectonic slam build

open minded to any other similar builds

​

I have played facebreaker cyclone surrender in the past but i was getting 1-shotted in t15-16 maps/endgame content. I want something of equal tankiness, but able to handle the 1shots so i can level/progress without much headache. Ultimately I want to reach 100 and be able to handle virutally any content (95% at least). Im somewhat of a casual player so expensive 50+ex builds arent really in my budget. Im planning on

With the new ascendency changes to deadeye, i immediately became interested in making a mirror arrow ranger. If im not mistaken, im able to cast mirror arrow nonstop with gmp i create a massive army very quickly. I checked poe.ninja for builds with this skill and i found ~8 which were mostly necromancers. I found one deadeye but it was using the lioneyes glare bow. With the new changes doubling accuracy, i feel like resolute technique might be unnecessary. Im looking more at voltaxic rift and stacking lightning damage with jewels/abyss jewels. Im also open to other bows. Im not sure how to go about this. If anyone is well-versed in the gameplay style of mirror arrow or can guide me in the ri

so ever since the new league started, I've been having issues with flameblast being inconsistent. There are numerous random times while mapping where my flameblast will no longer channel and will go on a rapid fire single stack flameblast shooting spree while i hold down my right click button(in attempts to channel flameblast). At first I thought it could be a hardware issue with the mouse's right click button electrical wiring being faulty but the problem persisted after replacing the mouse. Normally I would be excited about this since i could conjure up some taming ignite stack build however this "glitch" is very difficult to replicate. I just wanted to know if anyone else is experiencing

guy was freaking huge!

This is my Low Life Wander Build for Closed Beta (The Awakening) This build covers every aspect of my build as well as a map run through to show its effectiveness. I apologize for the lengthy video. (It was the first video I ever recorded) The first 20 minutes explains what my build does and the remaining is a high level map run through

Kinetic Blast dps= 42467 (With 3x Frenzy and 6x Power Charges)

Power Siphon dps= 53082 (With 3x Frenzy and 6x Power Charges)

Frenzy dps= 52257 (With 3x Frenzy and 6x Power Charges)

Helm: Discipline, Herald of Ash, Hatred, Arctic Armour

Shield: Wrath,

I was wondering if there was a +1 bow gems recipe that's not mentioned in poe wiki? I see there's +1 fire/cold/light gems and a +1 melee gems recipe, but no mention of a +1 bow gems? If anyone has an insight please share! thank you

First of all this is not a rant, rather a personal feedback and possibly ways of improving and making pvp more fun. I tried pvp for a few days and I noticed that the skill levels were imbalanced. I also tried the level 28 pvp and I still noticed that while one person is stacking items and has level 28 gems ready, the other does not.

possible fun solution as to how to make pvp amazing:: I read an earlier post that the Devs were inspired by magic the gathering in their makings of PoE. I, myself was a serious fan of MtG in the past and the greatest part of playing it were the booster/starter draft tournaments. My suggestions is simply this... create a draft-like tournament where players have
