    [LOOTFILTER] FilterBlade v1.0.0 - PoE-Account Synced Saves and Profiles

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 09:21 AM PDT

    Hey guys,

    I'd like to present you to a juicy www.filterblade.xyz update. This is update brings an overhaul to how saving/loading filters works on filterblade. You can now sign in with your POE account and all your saves will by synced with it.

    You can also share your profile and your saves much easier and faster now (on the save/load screen) and provide your friends/guild/fans/ex-wife with a consistent savestate URL. We deemed it worthy of being called a 1.0.0 version (+ the current version is 0.9.11L and naming is getting hard).

    Feedback is welcome!

    SPECIAL THANKS:

    • TOBNAC - /u/tobnac did most of the programming for this update and is absolutely the star right now. I mostly did requirements engineering and only programmed small JS bits here.

    • Novynn and GGG - huge thanks for hooking us up with the OATH2 authentication tokens!

    • Patrons and beta-testers - thank you for your support and for helping us find the scarabs in our code.

    NOTES:

    • We never receive your email/password. The login is done via OATH2, similar to how all the "sign in with google" buttons work.

    • You can search filterblade profiles on www.filterblade.xyz/Profile . We intend to expand this feature a lot with featured saves, most popular saves, maybe voting etc.

    • You can link your saved filters or your whole profile: http://filterblade.xyz/Profile.html?name=NeverSink . The links stay consistent, so it's really useful if you're sharing and updating a filter sub-version

    • All other save types are still available.

    Enjoy!

    NeverSink~


    PS: If you enjoy manual filter editing/creating, I recently published 2 filter language definitions for both Notepad++ and Visual Studio Code (search: poe-filter-language) . You can find both on my github

    The Spider Thief (100% invisibility + arakaali fang - near immortal)

    I just realized no one can see Sin

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 11:21 AM PDT

    Unless he reveals himself to them. I dont know why this never occurred to me, but during a recent playthrough I realized no one ever talks about Sin after he appears. The first person to have a dialogue option about him is Tasuni in act 9 and he says "Yes, I know of that dark god perched atop your shoulder" as if this should come as a surprise. Once you get to Act 10, Lani makes it clear she can see him, and Sin says that Lilly Roth can also see him, but he says "now that she can see me" as if to imply she couldn't at first.

    Petitition to GGG: Make Chain Hook work with Unarmed!

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:07 PM PDT

    Chain hook is a prolific Action RPG thematic attack. It's got a LOT of awesome flavor to it, and when I first saw it revealed I was super hype.

    Imagine my shock, horror, and confusion when I learned Chain Hook doesnt work with Unarmed attacks.

    What?! Why? It's like THE perfect thematic Unarmed themed attack really. The concept of bare knuckle fighting with nothing but chains, roping monsters in to punch their face in, its THE dream!

    And here we are. Somehow I have to have swords or etc equipped so my character is capable of swinging chains around?

    That doesnt even make sense GGG! How can I whip chains around while also holding swords? WHAT MADNESS IS THIS?!

    Also, it absolutely should add some base Phys dmg to attacks. Because like... the chains. You added chains to your attacks, which means hitting stuff.

    It just feels flavor fully correct for Chain Hook to add some small base phys dmg to represent the chains doing their thing. Am I crazy here?

    Plz fix <3

    Forum - Announcements - 3.8.0 Announcement Timeline - Path of Exile

    Deathless Shaper with Stone Golems, League Goal Complete!

    Posted: 12 Aug 2019 11:41 PM PDT

    3.8 speculations !

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 04:36 AM PDT

    with the announcement just around the corner I love me to read people's theories and guesses about what the new league will be and what will it focus on and change.

    with legion we saw reworks of melee gems and ascendancies, and a simple-ish league mechanic in line with the popular breach.

    in 3.8 I think the following will happen:

    under played ascendancies like raider will see some work.

    a new crafting method in line of fossil/essence/synthesis crafting will be introduced.

    legion will not make an immediate return ; but perhaps a reworked version of synthesis will do ! (looking forward to this very much).

    complained about sub league mechanics will get some fixes ( syndicate ).

    hopefully a more complex and engaging league mechanic rather than the straightforward and simple legion interaction.

    ofc. new attack,spell skill gems , along with auras and supports and a couple of uniques (hopefully the uniques don't suck).

    last but not least I really hope they avoid making the league monsters so overpowered they could one shot you off screen like legion does! less focus on the one shoting and ramping up damage and difficulty unreasonably please!

    what do you guys think ? would love to read your guesswork.

    Etiquette asking someone to craft something for you

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 07:52 AM PDT

    Subject says it all. I'm a little new to crafting in the game and the guild I am currently playing requires a wand with trigger socketed spell when you use a skill but I do not have the recipe. How do you go about asking someone to assist with the craft and what is the etiquette with tipping for the service?

    A question about the servers

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 11:11 AM PDT

    So this league is the first time I'm giving this game a fair chance (and I'm loving it), however I'm sure you all are sick to death about people talking about the lag, but it's there and it's really my only negative experience with this game.

    My question is this - Instead of having the towns in a shared instance would it be better to just have your whole game in one? Akin to Diablo 3. Would/could this make the lag better or worse? I don't work with computers so I'm uninformed on the ins and outs concerning server architecture and how all of that works. Would it be viable for GGG to do? From what I understand they're a smaller company, which is fine.

    I'm just curious. Could we get a single player mode? Lan options? Porting your online characters to single player like, I hope I didn't make this up, you could in Diablo 2? Has all of this been answered and I'm just bad at searching?

    Thanks for any help. Like I said I'm loving this but the lag in the evenings is making this a struggle.

    Headgear mtx that goes well with Cult of Apocalypse set?

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 10:24 AM PDT

    I recently bought cult of apocalypse pack, but I personally don't favor skull-like mask. So I wanted to ask if there is any other headgear replacer recommendation that goes well with apocalypse set in game. Headgear type- hood, hat, or helmet- does not matter, but because I started poe not long ago, I don't have the packs from past, and I cannot afford to buy core supporter packs.

    House of Mirrors vs. Mirror of Kalandra

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:54 PM PDT

    I noticed there are much more actual Mirrors on trade site then there are House of Mirrors div cards. One person even has 45 mirrors, which is just slightly less than all of the div cards put together. For how popular Disfavour was for Cyclone builds this league, I am surprised how small of amount of House of Mirrors there are on the market. Have they become more of a rare drop than the Mirror themselves, or not many people running Uber Atziri?

    I want to Leo slam this ring. Is there a right way to do it? Is this a bad idea?

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:38 PM PDT

    So, am I missing something or did GGG really intend Emblems to be unstackable / not stored in currency tab?

    Posted: 13 Aug 2019 01:16 PM PDT

    Ok, so I'm aware this is a small issue and I've been reluctant to post about it. It's just that this has been annoying me so much and I still can't find why it was made like this.

    So, when we have some splinters on inventory and get a few more, it automatically turns into an emblem. I can't unstack it (or is it some different key combination?) nor can I store it on the currency tab, not even on the extra slots where we can add a lot of random shit. Why? Is there a proper way to organize these that I'm missing? Did GGG really intend for it to auto stack and then u not be able to store it anymore along the remaining splinters?

    Yes, I can of course store it in a random premium tab, but .. WHY. It just makes no sense to me.

    This is just a small rant from someone who is relatively new to the game and bought some specific tabs. I'm FUCKING LOVING POE! It's so smart in so many aspects, yet there are two details that left me like this..

    thanks, and sorry...

    EDIT: By stacking splinters I mean converting them to emblems.

    Huy's Crit Shockwave Staff Cyclone Berserker Guide: Attack Staves Deserve a Bit More Love!

    Posted: 12 Aug 2019 05:13 PM PDT

    Huy's Crit Shockwave Staff Cyclone Berserker Guide: Attack Staves Deserve a Bit More Love!

    I know it's super late into the league, but I wanted to finally write about one of the most fun + successful characters I've ever made + played: Full Forum Build Guide. Lots of effort went into making it detailed, comprehensive, with extra memes 😉 (the custom forum bbcode behind it is crazy). I had amazing help from awesome friends for the formatting and polish! More work is still to be done on the polishing end as I (hopefully) get feedback. I also hope to make a (quick) video to accompany the guide once I figure out premiere and gather clips.

    From the 3.7 patch notes, attack staves were finally differentiated from spell staves.

    "The following staves can no longer roll spell-based mods such as added damage for spells or increased spell damage. Their base attack speeds have been slightly increased, and their damage decreased to compensate. These changes affect all existing versions of these basetypes, though they will not affect the mods those items currently have. Also some level requirements have changed I guess? Anyway, here you go: Iron Staff, Coiled Staff, Vile Staff, Military Staff, Serpentine Staff, Foul Staff, Ezomyte Staff, Maelström Staff and Judgement Staff."

    Lucky Craft First Week of the League. Still have the Imprint :D

    This change kinda flew under the radar as the league progressed, but basically it means you can craft attack staves like you would 2h axes/swords! Aside from this, Shockwave Support also got released. This gem looked underwhelming at first but is finally seeing a rise in popularity as people are figuring out the mechanics. Since it triggers its own active skill, it shares the same support gems as the skill you use to trigger it. This means that with proper setup (ie Fortify Staff), you can have a 7L trigger skill with a 6L Shockwave. Some builds already take advantage of this with various trigger skills (ie Earthquake or Leapslam), and I've tried different setups but at the end of the day, Cyclone (surprise 🤣 ) provided the most speed, smoothness, power, and coverage. Since Shockwave is the true MVP, and Cyclone is more of a delivery service, it *should* 🤞 survive the eventual nerf to Cyclone. More details about all these mechanics are provided on the build guide.

    ☝ Extremely Accurate Diagram of Shockwave Support

    Since I spent the whole league on this character, my gear is pretty cracked, but the guide was written for new/average players to build from a reasonable budget and scale to absolute insanity with investment. Uber Elder was done in the first few days with a Hegemony's Era with very budget/ghetto items while I was still figuring out the mechanics of the build. Though it's a bit overkill, you can also have sick extra single target setup with a 6L Vaal Double Strike (better than Vaal Ancestral Warchief since they don't take damage). Of course, more details about this are in the full guide, along with PoBs, skill trees, gems, setups, etc~

    Thank you for reading!

    TLDR: stronk shockwave staff cyclone berserker guide published super late into the league lul.
