Are you fully self-cast? I want to try VD out eventually, but I was thinking of using CwC.Not feeling the VD selfcast character tbh, dont really wanna try to do Shaper with it or 24 challenges...
:(
fully selfcast MoM but I have problems stopping on bosses/blight maps for desecrate -> VD.Are you fully self-cast? I want to try VD out eventually, but I was thinking of using CwC.
VD targeting fixed!3.8.1 Patch Notes
Fixed a bug where Blight Towers were benefiting from Map Modifiers. - LOL
Fixed a bug where an open tower building UI element would close if you had gained enough resources to upgrade a different tower. - Thank you!
So many more bug fixes...
This is the most I've done in a league, even though I'm still having random disconnects and freezes. Now I'm realizing how uber lab is unlocked and it looks like I'll have a use for those tier 1 maps. Pop and scout then exit. I don't even feel like I'd need the last two ascendancies but I just want to know if it'll be a breeze I guess.
As another poster said, type /global 820 in chat, you'll have them all done in about 30 min if you're lucky.This is the most I've done in a league, even though I'm still having random disconnects and freezes.

not going to even try and understand what you did and how you got that resultI didn't count but probably over a hundred tries. At least I could sell a few ones for 1ex+. Thank god horrors are 6-10c this league (thanks blight!) and not 40+
Buy dozens of essences of horror one by onenot going to even try and understand what you did and how you got that result
Is there anything fundamentally wrong with using meat shield on all your minions (skels, zombs and spectres) while you are a bit on the spongy / resistance low level and looking for gear?
They never die, well, that's not strictly true, they only die on phys reflect maps!.Meat shielded minions take less damage and have a chance to taunt. A chance, thus it's not reliable. Also how often are your minions dying, really? It's far better to just kill everything fast.
PoE defence methods, ranked (according to my opinion):
#1 killing everything before they can act
#2 dodging whatever they throw at you
#3 defensive stats with multiple layers (= don't rely on pure life)
Meat shield minions would be included in point #3 I guess. I use meat shielded zombies, but my spectres use support gems designed to make them kill better, harder and faster. Having all of your minions as meat shielders is an overkill, and some of your minions should be killing things instead.
maybe we'll finally have decent blight rewards
And not-derp VD balls
Ah I get to avoid all of that I went back to SSFBuy dozens of essences of horror one by one
Buy elder helmet ilvl82 bases
Spam essences hoping for the best
That's about it
I'm still pretty new to this and I'm curious what I should be focusing on for gear in the end game. Getting all res stats to 75?
Alright, I thought so from what I've read, just wanted to double check before changing my armor a bunch.
I think general advice for early endgame gearing is: max resist, get a decent amount of life, and get the right sockets for your skills. Those three things are far more important than any particular damage boosting affixes that gear will have.
Oils are fairly common especially at higher tier maps. Higher tier of maps equals better chance at higher oils. I honestly the market is going to be flooded with oils driving down their prices as there isn't much of a sink to them anyway.Is it just me or does it feel like we've been beta testing a league mechanic? Just an incredibly buggy league for me. Also, why are oils so rare? I don't really understand that decision at all.

I haven't been playing this league (cause Monster Hunter) but it seems crazy that the league's endgame zones weren't providing the unique league reward considering even Synthesis was dropping fractured rares/uniques from bosses even since day 1.
I got a Silver in a tier 16. Lvl95. Grimro said he got 2 golds in tier 16s as well and he seems to think tier 16 is the way to go if you want to farm Blights and Oils.Curious, how many silver and gold oils do you have? I've been mapping with red maps like crazy (lvl 93) and haven't seen a single one. Low tier oils are common but the valuable ones are rarer than exalts.
Out of the last like 3 or 4 leagues, this feels buggiest to me. More crashes and bugs than I'm used to. That said, I'm still enjoying this league a lotGranted my statements were pre-3.8.1 patch and haven't tested Blighted maps on new patch yet. But this patch has come at a little under 2 weeks since launch and it has various fixes to game breaking bugs/crashes and various performance issue fixes.
Edit: Apparently Rhoas are still bugged.
