    I would love it if the size of the bosses was overall increased. Or if the Boss textures would always prioritize over other effects.

    A little bit of PoE history: Havoc616 getting the first ever Level 100 character after a 15-minute Piety fight back in 2013.

    After taking a break from the game and recently coming back, I came to a conclusion as to what my biggest problem with PoE is right now

    Posted: 17 Jun 2021 01:17 AM PDT

    Its the clicking.

    Yes, there are quite a few problems I have with PoE right now, which is why I took the break in the first place. Most of them are minor though. But after coming back recently and playing the game for only a few hours since then, I just cant get over the fact how much clicking is needed.

    Affinities helped a ton, but it is nowhere near enough to make up for all the clicking in the game. Even with strict loot filters, there is just so much basic currency to pick up. And it seems so easy to improve the gaming experience in this regard:

    - Bigger pick up range. Like, alot bigger.

    These tiny steps in between all the scattered currency are killing me. Let alone the fact that the game cant properly allocate where the currency is exactly.

    - Vaccuum the same type of currency.

    These two alone would do so much for the game.

    And a more specific and maybe not so easy to implement one:

    - The option to individually allow the player to choose up to 12 slots in the inventory that are separate from the rest of the inventory. These slots are "fix" for whatever is in them (portal scrolls, ID scrolls, some curency you need for mapping, whatever).

    Then give us a "stash currency" button. We go to the stash, click the button and all currency, except for the one in our "fixed" slots, gets transferred to the stash and its affinites.

    I know "weight" has become a meme at this point, even though I think at its core its an understandable idea. But it feels like its designed around the state of the game from like 6 years ago. Right now, the only thing this philosophy does is weigh down the gameing experience.

    how did toxic rain feel this league?

    Posted: 18 Jun 2021 06:47 AM PDT

    I was going to start it this league before I learned of the nerfs and ended up going something else. Did anyone play it this league? if so how was it for a starter? Just want to use it to get enough currency to transition to Ehit next league (assuming no big changes ofc)

    Any comprehensive list of defensive layers out there?

    Posted: 18 Jun 2021 06:50 AM PDT

    I've been looking forward to making my own guides but I feel like I always struggle to come up with a combination of defensive layers that I'm satisfied with, not because I don't know the importance of but because there's so many things that can play a role here and I just don't know them besides the more common ones (Block, dodge, glancing blows, MoM, etc).

    Is there an updated guide somewhere that lists all the defensive layers, what are their use cases or which type of characters benefit the most from which mechanic?

    PoE Newbie

    Posted: 17 Jun 2021 05:38 PM PDT

    Hi everyone-

    I'm new to PoE as of this week and so far have been really enjoying it. I've been watching a few different videos on YouTube for beginner guides and have been utilizing the wiki quite a bit as well.

    I was just curious if anyone had some tips or tricks to share for a newbie that you feel might be helpful? Any info you can share would be appreciated.

    Question about watchstone stacking

    Posted: 18 Jun 2021 03:08 AM PDT

    As title says i wanted to inquire about if watchstone effects such as "Breaches in areas have an X amount of increased chance to belong to Chayula" can stack with one another if you have multiple ones. Thanks in advance

    The fact that most builds have every single thing they use as "active" in pob has made that numbers feel like they have to be bigger than they really need to be.

    Posted: 17 Jun 2021 02:23 AM PDT

    This is specially true for dps. Flasks, inconsistent buffs or even things that shouldn't even be ticked (I'm looking at you shock at 50%) are active in most of shitty pobs.

    This makes it so that if a build like this has something like 4m dps it feels like shit, and then you see people around here saying 4m dps is not enough, when in reality the issue is that 4m dps is not what the build they are using have.

    What's worse is that since builds live or die due to big numbers they all do that since otherwise they get overshadowed by the endless clickbait of shit builds

    So, apart from the rant before. Just remember before you use a build, spend some time understanding how it works, and always remember to disable the flasks.

    Crit vs Non-Crit ball lightning

    Posted: 18 Jun 2021 05:25 AM PDT

    Hey all,

    I'm looking to put together Ball Lightning to smash the last hard bosses for Challenges. I've never done these bosses before and figure with my budget (250ex) this is a good build that is tanky, powerful and easy to play.

    That being said, as I understand it, there's a crit and non-crit version, which is better? Only problem I see with Crit is that, if you look at the top players on PoE.ninja, those gems literally aren't up for sale. There are actually 0 jewels with max life and triple crit multi, no matter how much you want to pay.

    So yeah, crit vs non-crit, anyone with any experience?

    What makes Harvest so rippy ?

    Posted: 17 Jun 2021 03:49 PM PDT

    I don't die too much in T15 maps but I can't clear a single harvest without getting literally one shot... Is there something specific to harvest that I am not understanding ?

    Every time I try to do a harvest I instantly die...

    ReGex on console tradeboard

    Posted: 18 Jun 2021 02:07 AM PDT

    Hello dear GGG employees and Exiles! I am very grateful for the fact that in 3.14 we introduced support for regular expressions on the console marketplace, but unfortunately there are absolutely no articles on this site on the site. Is there any manual for dealing with regular expressions? I mean, in the form in which they are in the game. For example, I can not designate a new line "\ n" and do not quite understand how the displayed item looks for the search bar. I would be very grateful and the community probably also if you made detailed instructions or at least answered my few questions:

    1) How can I indicate what colors of sockets I want on an item and in what quantity? ".-.-.-.-.-." so i am looking for an item with 6 linked sockets. you can specify the color separately through the color key letters 'r' 'g' 'b' But how exactly can I indicate that I need 3 blue sockets, two red and one green and the sequence does not matter?
    2) How can I choose an item (large cluster gem) with 3 passive skills. I've tried many different ways already, but nothing works.

    And of course, I've already dug up tons of information about regular expressions, the whole reddit, and the path of exile forum. Many questions were answered, but not these.
    Please help me figure this out. I play on the XBOX platform.

    Am I understanding ailment thresholds right?

    Posted: 18 Jun 2021 05:09 AM PDT

    So I've been toying around with a build using Leadership's Price, which gives me Scorch, Brittle and Sap confluxes, allowing all my damage to apply all of those ailments.

    In the recent Q&A for game mechanics GGG gave us the formulas for these ailments

    With the formula of "50 * (Damage / ailment threshold)^0.4" for Scorch, and using the ailment threshold of Sirus found by someone here on Reddit, I've come to the conclusion that I would need almost 7 million damage in a single hit to get max effect of Scorch on Sirus.

    50 * (7000000 / 25000000)^0.4=30.0492209375

    Can this be true? Is it really that harsh of a requirement to get max effect? The reason I'm curious is because the guide I followed for this build stated that they reach max effect against Shaper for example, but after testing some myself I didn't feel like I got anywhere near max effect. My max hit possible with the build isn't very high due to using Explosive Trap for single target which is split in to many small hits. As a result, it feels like the confluxes from the amulet are a huge bait as I can only potentially reach ~7% penetration according to the formula, and that's if I happen to proc double damage (5% chance) on a crit that's the absolute top end hit possible by Explosive Trap, with Bear Trap and flasks up.

    I've still got some ways to go damage wise, so I feel like I can push that a bit further and even if I only get the 7% pen on average, the 3.5% base crit given by Brittle would still be pretty decent, but I just mostly want to know if I'm doing this right and not being stupid somehow.

    End Game Noob

    Posted: 17 Jun 2021 03:24 PM PDT

    I have been building a BF/BB Inquis this league. After hitting 500 hours in game, I am for the first time facing elder/shaper maps and Sirus. I would like to try and push harder, but these bosses constantly one-shot me. I feel like I have pretty solid defenses, but it seems that is not the case. I have no problems with other T15/16 maps, just these. I really don't have much currency to liquidate and sales have really slowed down. What can I change to help with damage and survivability without having to expend multiple exalts? https://pastebin.com/KR3FrV36
