I wish they removed act bosses from maps. Do not enjoy redoing those fights. Rather fight different bosses in maps.
Just get rid of phased bosses and I'd be happy.

Old Burial Chambers was pure cancer. Current one is not bad.I guess that's true, new layout is way better than it used to be.
Awesome, Beach is my favorite map.New atlas layout https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2253540
Beach and Strand t4. Burial Chamber t11.
Hmmmm.
Someone put out a Sextant map for the new Atlas changes.
UGS, Haunted Mansion, Grotto, Toxic Sewer and Armoury have best Sextant spreads out of the good maps. Grotto, Toxic Sewer amd Armoury are noteworthy because they are surrounded mostly by white maps so they are prime candidatea for tier 16 Elder. UGS and Haunted Mansion have more yellow maps around then but also insane density so they can still be used.
You can put them on uniqur maps yes.Can you put sextants on unique maps? Two whites on UGS and Obas wouldn't be too bad. Plus a yellow from lava chamber if it reaches?
Phase bosses in maps are usually just a nuisance. You have way too much damage and bosses that should take 10 seconds to kill end up taking a few minutes. When you are chaining maps that time spent on bosses makes it very inefficient. What ends up happening is that players just skip the bosses altogether in these maps.Not saying they're perfect but I always thought phased bosses were a check on skill level, not just brute force DPSing without strategy or coordination. That said some of the one shot mechanics are pretty crazy and can really hurt the leveling process.
It's the opposite. DPSing is what you should be doing on these bosses. Essentially insta phase them and get out of the way would be the best way of doing these bosses. You get punished for having low dps against these bosses because the longer you have to fight them the more likely they are to kill you.Not saying they're perfect but I always thought phased bosses were a check on skill level, not just brute force DPSing without strategy or coordination.

And that's the rub. You can't skip t15 bosses because of the chance to get that t16. Essentially GGG has incentivized players to only run shaped t15s. Why deal with those shit bosses more than you have to.Phase bosses in maps are usually just a nuisance.

Hell thats what I did for the Belfry map when it first came out. I beat it once to get the bonus then never fought it again.
I never felt pressured to skip a boss.. except for Lava Lake. Just a huge pain in the ass overall.Phase bosses in maps are usually just a nuisance.

DPSing a boss is not a skill check, it's a gear check. I still believe there should be some sort of challenge at the higher maps (maybe like T14-16). Bosses are bosses for a reason. That said some of the phases do take too long and they can definitely make improvements there.It's the opposite. DPSing is what you should be doing on these bosses.

The easiest t15 boss along with reef lol. Basilica is low dps nightmare.I never felt pressured to skip a boss.. except for Lava Lake. Just a huge pain in the ass overall.
It's not about DPS it's about not getting one shot by various shit lol. DPS is hardly an issue until you get to guardiansThe easiest t15 boss along with reef lol. Basilica is low dps nightmare.
Cool designAnother interesting announcement from Bex. New item plus 2 things from the patch notes.
Not really if you get gear yourself.
Using any physical/fire mitigation? Probably last time got rekt by kitava was as story boss.I've done 4 characters so far and the only boss I'm still kinda scared to face is the one in Lava Lake because there are at least a couple one shot mechanics that are easy to catch.
On all my characters, that's the only boss I've actually had to pay attention to avoid getting one-two shot. So I dunno.Not really if you get gear yourself.

Probably should wait for the patch notes first. It's very likely that there might be some new skill that ends up being a great starter.I'm debating on whether I wanna go arc or toxic rain again for the next league. My arc build has MOM which is way tankier though.. though maybe I can do a duelist pathfinder setup again but with arc.
Which has better endgame potential?
Yeah arc totems was my league starter this go around, and it was very easy and fast. Think I'm doing Toxic Rain next week unless something drastically changes with the patch notes.arc is insane for leveling.
arc traps or totems and youre good to go.
At this stage I definitely see more ppl playing toxic rain late game than arc. Again that could all change.I'm debating on whether I wanna go arc or toxic rain again for the next league.

New support gem. Multiple support totem. Need to see the patch notes now. About to go totem start.
Oh shit..New support gem. Multiple support totem. Need to see the patch notes now. About to go totem start.
One premium tab for trading would be my next purchase, then a map tab. Given that you only have 140 points left, you'd be 10 short....Just bought first blood pack, spend 60 on currency tab, what else should I use my points on?
Also, can I get an invite to the era guild? My username is Raziel_Grave
