    Contagion has a target limit of only 20 per cast, targeting large packs will often mean targets closest to you will not be infected and your essence drain will fail. (Better version)

    One man, one elasticsearch install and a PoE client.txt file

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 12:31 PM PST

    One man, one elasticsearch install and a PoE client.txt file

    ​

    ElasticSearch 90 Days of a new(ish) player in Betrayal

    ​

    So for my day job I needed to experiment with the new functionality available in Elastic stack 6.5.x and if upgrading to it would meet some new business requirements. This coincided with me having played PoE for a couple of months. By various means I came across the mythical client.txt file, wrote a small parser in C# that watches for the PoE process closing and proceeds to analyse the log file into objects that get serialised to JSON and bulk inserted into Elastic. Create some visualisations in Kibana, follow it up with a dashboard and now after I play for a couple of hours in the evening and close the game I can do a quick analysis of how I actually got on. The intended target of the dashboard is to help me:

    1. Stop spending so much time standing in my hideout
    2. Show me if my mapping speed by map tier is improving or getting worse
    3. Show me which maps I'm really slow on

    I normally play a couple of hours (most/some) evenings. I had a quick run up with a ranger before Betrayal released, sorted a target build out and have mostly stuck with that one for the league (SobsDuelBetray - top right). I've met my own goals for the league (basically finish the story - wife, 2 kids and full time job), kinda floundering now, don't have time to farm enough to push my build further.

    I don't really see a (financial) way of running a community elastic cluster (I've got 5Mb from 3 months of not much playtime, extrapolate that out for 1000 players - going to need a pretty big hot/cold cluster), but with some changes I guess you could get speedrunners to all run an application that would log out to a public cluster the casters have access to. Pretty sure it would give some interesting insights if you add the data by player name. For example you could see zone speed by player and class etc. Other thing is that it is potentially useful to GGG to see players client files. For example there are a lot of log lines related to: "Client couldn't execute an instant/triggered action from the server". GGG might already have a way of knowing this server side or via the network traffic. My biggest wish during it was that when a skill point is assigned it logged to the client.txt file in a manner that could be tied up to the passive skill tree - I see things like "evasion731" and "evasion_and_life1486" which can't (to my knowledge) be tied to the id's in the data.json 3.5 skill tree. Might have been able to build a cool Kibana canvas or bespoke visualisation from that.

    Anyway, thought it was interesting, questions welcome - hopefully the titles of each visualisation make them self explanatory.

    L85 SSF Duo in 6:14:13

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 02:39 AM PST

    These are our perspectives from the L85 Race this past Saturday.

    My PoV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6p2UUMoGaeE

    Kammell's PoV: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kCo5eMRIJaM

    We did 10 full practice runs, the splits can be seen here. Unfortunately, Kammell had an accident at L79 so we were unable to beat our personal best; however, we believe a 5H20M run is possible. Duo racing was an extremely fun experience and it was very rewarding to see how a bit of practice resulted in large improvements.

    Strategies

    1. Yolo Highest Maps: This strategy would be very interesting for league start, we were able to build 70% atlas bonus by the ~6H mark but the XP wasn't the best and high level syndicates were incredibly rippy during progression.
    2. Specific Map Farming: By learning how Zana's questline chooses where shaper spawns, you can guarantee having specific maps unlocked at various tiers for max xp/h. The maps we chose were T4: Glacier, Beach & T5: City Square, Alleyways.
    3. +5 Zana Mod: For the cost of 2c, you can increase the level of a map by 5 levels; one needs to have completed a Shaper influenced T5 to unlock this stage. Combined with the previous strategy, we could get huge xp/h in combination with high level safehouses for huge boosts. However, syndicates in T9/T10 maps were quite scary and very tanky, so often it would be better to just skip them in these maps.
    4. Domination: For the cost of 3c, we could add 3 shrines to a map; one needs to have completed a Shaper influenced T6 to unlock this stage. Domination was ideal for T5/T6+ maps if we wanted to play it a bit safer and get comparable XP/H to the above strategy since we could still kill syndicates for xp.
    5. Syndicate XP Boosting: I would swirl to dead syndicate mobs in Kammell's map. When he interrogates them I would get huge chunks of xp. While he was interrogating I would drop any items he needed, such as fuses/jewellers/scours/etc to turn into alchemy orbs.
    6. Chaos Recipe: To sustain Zana mods and depending on how early we wanted to start running them we did the chaos recipe. Everytime I swirled for his Syndicate XP I would drop chaos recipe items such as rings, amulets & belts.

    Builds

    My PoB: https://pastebin.com/0WYtVA15

    Kammell's PoB: https://pastebin.com/ZJXPubLX

    I personally chose trickster due to the extra survivability via:

    • Weave the Arcane providing extra mana to synergize with Mind over Matter along with % damage reduction
    • Strong Damage
    • High cast speed for shorter animations
    • Elementalist-esque playstyle starting in Blood Aqueduct with Herald of Ice and respeccing to Crit

    Coming up next we'll possibly be trying trio or quad+ runs to Shaper to simulate league start. We're hoping to kill A10 Kitava in ~2H20M in these runs.

    If anyone has any questions on our builds or strategies, /u/Kammell466 or myself can answer them.

    Delve "Super Secret Strat"

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 12:00 PM PST

    EDIT: For those who thinks i said "SLAM" as a "Slam Fossil". I meant slam as a "Slam exalted". Hybrid double damage is shaper mod.

    ​

    Week or two ago i've talked to a streamer which had really good staff. When i asked how he crafted it he refused to answer. Said "It's super SECRET". Then ive talked to another streamer (stark4machines - shout out to my boi) about this. He go upset about this. And tried to help me out. Legit one hour spent to figure that out. But in the end he couldn't. Still love him great guy!

    What im gonna tell you next is gonna change delve push insanely. And prob gonna get nerfed due to it's popularity. Cause u know. Delve 3k is just exist. GGG doesn't want u to go there.

    Mods were looking for:

    20% spell damage to socketed skill gems

    Hybrid Double Damage

    Reduced Soul Cost of Vaal Skills

    ​

    Which fossils needed?

    Aetheric

    Bloodstained

    (you can add Metallic for block it just depends on what you want exactly)

    ​

    Problem:

    You can't get double damage hybrid mod with those fossils

    You can't get attack mods if your gonna use Aetheric.

    (important: shuddering doesn't work either with Aetheric)

    ​

    "The Super Secret" strat:

    Get aetheric + bloodstained (like i said before u can add metallic aswell). After getting 20%, check if you got 2 open suffixes. If "no" annul and pray. If "yes" craft cannot roll spell mods. And voula.

    ​

    I have spent more than week to get this info just by myself. By spending more than 100 ex on fossils to see everything. Spending hours and hours on poedb / poeaffix.

    ​

    Why i'm sharing this?

    ​

    Cause im not Pajamas nor Blink nor Tbxie.

    ​

    ​

    Peace

    Trade Scam

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 11:05 AM PST

    Can we have something like this? [Toggle on/off]

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 11:33 AM PST

    [BUG?] You can't cast Blight on the Fortress Wall from Fortification encounter when you namelock it.

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 06:32 AM PST

    Started playing Blight char but on lvl 3 I encountered fortification. When I approached it and tried to cast blight on the wall it did not work. Turns out you cant have cursor on the wall and cast it, you need to turn away from it and start casting, then you can aim it to the wall.

    It looks like pretty serious bug to me.

    Filter and Styleversions

    Strictness-es are filter configurations the affect how much/little a filter shows. The general rule is that: as you clear faster, you want to pick up less, because in the time you'd take care of a higher quantity of items, you can kill more monsters and get a higher chance at rare loot. You can start with Regular/Semi-Strict first (great for new players and leagues) and simply up the strictness from the option menu, once you feel like you want to see less.

    Nr Name Short Description
    0 Soft Shows too much. Includes low crafting bases, magic jewellery in the endgame. Not recommended for regular gameplay.
    1 Regular Shows a lot. Recommended for beginners, new leagues and slow-clearing gameplay. Shows all rares. Good for chaos recipes.
    2 Semi-Strict Healthy balance. Great for new leagues and beginners and medium-speed endgame gameplay. Hides the worst rares. Good for chaos recipes.
    3 Strict Hides bad-base rares and scrolls. Universal and recommended endgame strictness. Hides random gems (hold alt in the first zone if you level with it). Bad for chaos recipes.
    4 Very Strict Hides most rares, scrolls, augments, armourers. Good for the endgame and for speed-farming.
    5 Uber Strict Hides all low currencies and rares. Great for quantity-farmers.
    6 Uber+ Strict Shows too little. Sterile screen. Hides all kind of stuff, including mediocre divination cards, all kind of crafting material etc. Recommended for speed-clearing quantity-parties or as a base for further editing. Not recommended for regular gameplay.

    Styles have no effect on how strict the filter is, but change the visual and audio configuration. Find one that pleases your eye most or make your own on www.filterblade.xyz

    Style Description
    Default The normal style. It uses a wide variety of colors and shadings to inform users about the drop type, value and properties.
    Slick A less colorful version of the normal style.
    Gaia (full restyle) Gaia is a nature-inspired style. It uses less colors, but is still very cheerful.
    Vaal (full restyle) A brick, corruption, blood and gore styled filter.
    Velvet (full restyle) Soft green, blue, grey and pink hues, this filter is inspired by oceanic and royal colorsets.
    Blue Minor changes. Changes the color of rares to blue.
    Purple Minor changes. Changes the color of rares to purple.
    Azurite A new (experimental style) - it's like a DOUBLE purple/cyan style!
    CustomSounds Special style. The visuals are based of default, but the sounds are different and are provided in mp3 files. You have to copy the mp3 files too for the filter to work. You can also replace the sounds with your own mp3's to create your own soundset.

    Thanks to...

    A special thanks to everyone who helped testing and provided feedback during the past days, you guys included! Thank you!

    Idea for Berserker, make them the vaal skill specialist. Like Pathfinder is the Potion Specialist.

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 09:02 AM PST

    Vaal were about sacrifice, so how about give Berserker a passive that as they take damage their vaal skill's gain souls.

    Also give them the chance to not use a vaal skill charge on activation.

    Would be interesting to see them become focused on using Vaal skills.

    Ancient Vaal City Hideout

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 09:00 AM PST

    This is my Hideout in arboreal that I made for the Hideout Competition of Path of Exile. It's the first hideout I made full and seriously and I spend over 30 hours on it. I am a bit sad tough, because i couldn't finish it to the objects limitation, so I had to block certain Areas.

    Granting access to others

    Posted: 28 Jan 2019 08:19 AM PST

    Access to crafting bench

    When crafting some specific mod for others, instead of them giving the item for you to craft, you can create a one time access to your crafting bench for them

    For example, when somebody wanted you to craft a +1 curse on their chest:

    1. Head to your crafting bench
    2. Search +1 curse
    3. Right click it, and select "create access orb"
    4. Trade the access orb to him

    The access orb can show the mod of the crafting recipe, just like the bestiary orb, but without cost. When he has the access orb, he can access to your crafting bench for that specific mod only. So when trading the access orb to him, he can pay you in advance.

    Access to map

    When you try to sell the completion of a special map to others (e.g. Perandus manor, Shaper completion) or giving leechers to enter your pure breachstones, you can create access pass to others.

    For example, you are trying to sell the completion of perandus manor:

    1. Open your map
    2. When portals are opened, you click the map device and select "create access pass"
    3. After access pass is created, you must set a price for each access orbs created (same as how you set price for items im public stash tabs)
    4. Trade the access pass to those who will enter your map(in your party, of course) and he must trade the corresponding price for that access pass
    5. Those who have the access orb can enter your map, and the pass will disappear as soon as they enter
    6. If 6 portals are used up before they could enter (i.e. maybe you or someone died and used another portal?), they will be refunded fully to the price they gave, and the pass will disappear

    For step 6 to be able to be possible, the currency they traded will be marked indicating it is unable to be used until their access pass is used (maybe unstackable to your currency or stackable but will show *?? xx orb is unavailable* when hovered to the corresponding currency)

    For those who doesn't want to be bothered by this access pass, head over to the party page and disable the option "give access" (or select no access?) so that every party member can freely enter your map (same as how it is now)

    Access to Cadiro sale

    Cadiro scammers have been going since perandus league, so now you can give access to the person who wants to buy from Cadiro but not to those scammers when you are trying to buy perandus coins.

    How to give Cadiro offers to others:

    1. Click Cadiro
    2. Select the option "give cadiro offer to"
    3. A list of party members that are in the map will be listed
    4. Select the member who will be taking the offer
    5. A trade window will pop out, and the person will tip you if he wants or give the amount you requested. The offer will be given to him when the trade is done. When the trade is cancelled, the offer will remain with you.

    So, in order to be possible, party members can interact with Cadiro and still see the offer but they can't buy from him, only the one with the access can buy. The one that has accepted the access also can give access to party members regardless of he is not the host of the instance (he can give back the access to the host if the host regrets it, but it's dumb)

    This ideas are to negate scammers, what is your opinion of these ideas?

    In Breach, GGG added the Breach ring. In Talisman, we had access to a new type of amulet. In Abyss, we had the Stygian Belt added. Atlas of Worlds added the Two-toned Boots, Spiked and Fingerless Gloves, Bone Helmet, Steel and Opal rings.

    Perhaps it's time for a new weapon type? Maybe a spear, lance or Trident? maybe Grenades? Any guesses?
