    The state of Favour

    The state of Favour

    Inspired by the post about Incursion.

    Hideouts are a niche community in PoE and I am hoping to bring attention to some points that are discussed often in the community. In this post I want to discuss favour.

    Don't get me wrong I love the current master system and able to choose the mission type to run. I know hideouts are cosmetic side content GGG wanted to make a very longterm goal and yes, hard work and veteran players should be rewarded. The problem is with favour gain. In current state, it is a very difficult, long grind for players that used all their favour, players new after 3.5, or play average amounts, to target farm favour, import a hideout, or buy enough decorations and experiment making your own.

    There are many hideout creators that gave up or are about to give up on hideouts because of favour gain grind (not nameing names, but you probably heard of a couple, even if you don't follow the community). This is why:

    Some problems with favour

    • New decorations are more expensive, many cost 100k+ favour and require duplicates to experiment or use templates. Millions of favour can be gone in seconds.
    • Favour scales very badly with map tier. One mission gives only 7.5k (Tier 1) to 11k (Tier 16) favour. To give an idea, a completed hideout (created or imported) is around 10 million favour, many are higher. That is at leas 1300 Tier 1 maps with missions if you did not already have that favour saved, or 896 Tier 16 maps. Some people map faster than others but, I think, we can agree this is a very long grind.
      • To give another idea this hideout posted recently is a low amount of 2.8M favour, it would still take two hundred fifty Tier 16 master missions.
    • Master rotas died after the 3.5 rework. Great for farming and QoL, but very bad for favour. Niko rotas are pretty expensive to roll maps for, to join just for favour farm.
    • Prophecies no longer give bonus favour
    • Decoration cost were increased during Betrayal (then reduced, but still higher than pre Betrayal amounts). Players with alot of favour saved from previous leagues had their spending power cut to only part of what it used to be

    Favour scales very badly with map tier

    Current solutions

    • Have alot of favour saved from previous leagues
    • Play PoE hours a day
    • Farm missions in standard
    • Create/import 1 hideout and never change it
    • u/LogicalBreak 's favour rota group

    Some suggestions

    • Increase overall favour gain amount or reduce expensive (100k+) decoration costs
    • Make favour earned scale more with map tier
    • Make favour earned scale with map IIQ
    • Make Prophecies give bonus favour again
    • Bring back 1st master mission of the day favour bonus multiplier. Maybe make the first 5 missions of the day with triple favour.

    285 solo beachhead runs info.

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 11:33 AM PST

    Hey there, this league I set a goal of leveling to 100 for the first time. Being wooden PC gamer I avoid group play and rotas, so I ve chosen Beachhead as a way to level, mostly because I just like the map itself and this league it was even proffitable with no investments. If you want additional info ask in a comment, here goes tl dr version:

    Total solo maps: 285, about 300 or so overall but I excluded 2 rotas I was invited to by friends.

    Loot from shards:

    13 exalts 2 exalt shards
    234 ancient orbs 9 ancient shards
    159 annulment orbs 14 annulment shards
    841 chaos(some chaos from mob drops is there was too lazy to sort it away)

    I sold some harbi uniques(mostly shields and masks) for total 1615c

    Map drops:
    179 t16
    194 t15
    97 t14

    Unqiues maps, sythesis maps and maps from awakening bonus:
    Chimera 6, Hydra 4, Mino 2, Phoenix 1
    Constrictor 3, Eradicator 1
    Cortex 1, Augmented memory 2
    Hall of grandmasters 3, Putrid cloister 1, Mao Kun 1, Twilight temple 1, Vault of Atziri 1, Hallowed ground 1, Maelstrёm of chaos 2, Oba's 2, Acton's 1, Pillars of arun 2, Death and taxes 3, Strand unique map(sorry I dont speak Karui) 1.

    I hope some1 will find it usefull.

    Edit: I also got 33 Voidforge cards (The Endless Darkness), that is 3 sets and 6/9 leftover.

    [Discussion] GGG, Please allow us to Anoint Rigwald's Curse

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 10:14 AM PST

    This is a lone specific unarmed build-creating talisman if you plan to scale crit AT ALL with any unarmed build. PLEASE add some text stating that it can be anoint-able, so that unarmed builds can join 2020 in build flexibility.

    While I wouldn't mind talismans overall becoming anointable, I won't go so far as to ask for all of that, but this specific talisman just feels bad to run without being able to anoint it.

    poeleague.com - private league indexer

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 12:03 PM PST

    A buddy and i were looking for private leagues to maybe play, not long ago, and were getting frustrated with how difficult it can be to find leagues that people have created out there. We made a little tool to help gather, consolidate, and filter thru ones that we've found scattered across the web.

    We've purchased a domain so that it can be shared with others, in case others find it helpful, too (see: https://poeleague.com ). We've taken the liberty of adding several leagues we've found out there, to the list, already. This should help get people started.

    Why use poeleague.com?

    1. If you are recruiting people for a league you've created, we're hoping itll help others who might be interested in your league, find your league. Add yours to the list via your league's unique URL and other visitors to the site will be able to see your league.
    2. If you are wanting to find a league to join and play - like we were - a nice, consolidated list can make finding just the right league you're interested in, a lot easier (no need to scour the web for many, many hours, assuming many of the leagues out there have been added to the list)

    Here's how you can add a listing/league, to the list on the website:

    1. first, grab a private league's unique url (copy it)
    2. navigate to https://poeleague.com
    3. click the "+" icon and paste the unique url into the resulting text-box
    4. press 'enter' (or click the 'add listing' button), to submit the link/league

    Here is a demo, of this process:

    how to add a league to poeleague.com

    Here's a link to the demo, in case the video above doesn't work, for some reason: https://thumbs.gfycat.com/ArtisticPhysicalFeline-mobile.mp4 (or https://gfycat.com/artisticphysicalfeline <--- whichever link's best, for you)

    Easy, huh?

    That's it! We hope this tool can help all you private league fans out there. Enjoy; and feel free to leave feedback or suggestions if you'd like and we'll see if we can implement these suggestions.

    Thanks and take care, Exiles!

    [PSA] Please be aware of the current price fix of Craicic Chimeral beastcraft

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 03:37 AM PST

    As title. Current pricing ranges between 1-1.1 exa. However, the user "pangziaa" owns the last 30 listings or so by 0.8 exa, most likely in the hopes of other would list by the same price and for him/her to grab the crafts with a 20% ish discount.

    Thought you wanted to know before you try to liquidate all your items/beasts/div/etc before the league is over.

    I can't help hitting the same progression wall every League.

    Posted: 06 Feb 2020 10:25 AM PST

    Hi Reddit, this is a call for help.

    I think that my problem is very common thoughout the PoE community, but I hope that the Reddit God can help me solve it nonetheless.

    Every League is the same story: I start the League hyped, I come up with some build that I like, I spend a few days into theorycrafting and refining it, I get it to 80+, then transition to a somewhat better gear to farm red maps, get it to 90+..... aaand then I cannot progress to the very end game.
    I'm not comfortable in T14-16 maps, I never killed Uber Elder, nor Sirus, you name it.

    You get the idea, I get to the endgame-ish part of the game, and cannot progress to the very end of it.
    I can make it to T12-13 maps pretty smoothly, but not further. And I don't mean only my own theorycrafted builds, because the same problem happens with the ones I get from guides/youtubers/streamers.

    It's very frustrating because I really like this game, and I'd really want to git gud but apparently I'm missing something.
    I spent, and continue to spend, countless hours into videos, guides, wiki, and I can pretty comfortably say that I know much more of this game than it's needed to get to the aforementioned endgame.

    I'm kinda ashamed to share it, but I've played this game for more than 500 hours, and still feel like a newbie, and I know that it's also the good part of PoE, but in my case it happened because I've been playing this game since beta (even though I not even closely played every League), but everytime I try again, I burn out and quit.
    Every League I made a little step further in my progression, but since Betrayal my situation is pretty stale.

    Sorry for the long introduction, but I wanted to make clear the kind of player I am. I could know every single way of making currency, but probably spend it in shitty way; I could know most things about crafting methods, but never managed to craft my own endgame gear; I could know how to setup a good mapping strategy, but never had more than 7-8 Ex.

    I don't even know how to ask for your help, I should probably have someone experienced to play with on Discord, but at least I can tell you what aspect of the game I think I do not handle properly:

    • Crafting: as I said, I never had the currency necessary to craft endgame gear, or probably I had, but wasted it because maybe I'm not able to craft efficiently? Am I even supposed to craft my gear, or is it totally possible to get to endgame without ever spending an alch into crafting?
    • Currency making: is it because I spend wrong, or I do not earn enough? I usually buy most of my gear, and make money from veiled items, some good drops, valuable beasts, some fated items, Syndacate services and others.
    • Endgame gear transition: I get very confused when I have to pick and choose my endgame gear, mostly because I can't figure out how to transition all my stat requirements, resistances, endgame DPS stats, you call it. Should I get endgame gear that fits into my current gear piece by piece, or plan it beforehand with a masterplan on how to fix every aspect of the build all at once (requirements, res, etc)?

    I don't think that the problem is me not playing enough, because, even though I'm a young Medical Doctor and future Radiologist with an engagement and social life, I spend most of the spare time I have into gaming. I know I will never have an HH on day 3 of the League, but I think I can totally achieve the goal to at least clear the whole game comfortably in a few weeks from League start, given that I solve my gitting gud problem.

    I'll put here an example of build I made, in this case the Toxic Rain Pathfinder I crafted this League. (the empty Jewel socket has a Brutal Restraint Timeless Jewel for the Wind Dancer Keystone, but I don't know how to add it into PoB)

    I hope you guys can help me, I'm opened to critics and also to have some Discord chat/play together, expecially from EU fellas.

    Cheers, thank you!

    Why POE don't have hide other player skill effect in the option?

    Posted: 05 Feb 2020 09:38 PM PST

    I really enjoy playing Necro build with tons of Skeleton + Zombie + Spectre + Animate and all of minion that possible to summon. Just fun to play that build and it's fine if I only play this build like a single player game. Don't do any progress with friend.

    BUT

    Every-time I play with friends they always ask me stop summon everything I have just run cuz my minion make them too hard to look at boss attack or skill. So I have no choice to don't use any skill and no summon any minions even I'm a Necro build which is sad for me and I found it's so boring to do. Then I have to create completely new character that very less effect on screen so I can enjoy playing the game with friends.

    BUT

    It's not just Necro build that make your or your friends computer burn or the game kick you out. And POE have so many MTX to custom the effect of your skill and I love to buy them too. I used to play with friend who play trap build or COC build. I think you guy know how it is look when COC build are in the same party doing T16 map together.

    Then

    Why POE don't add Show only your skill effect in the settings?
    So you will not be kicked out from the game when it's too low FPS from crazy build. and you will not be forced to play the build or class you don't really enjoy it just because you want to enjoy partying with friends.

    If I can hide my friends skill effect or my friends can hide my skill effect that will make my partying experience on POE way better and much more fun.
