    Trade is broken for customers of Germanys second largest ISP (over 2 month now)

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 01:13 PM PDT

    For over 2 month now me and many friends can not join hideouts from any Korean and Japanese player. It's not only that you can not enter, you even get an infinite loading screen. At this point you have to end the game with ALT+F4 or you will be stuck forever.

    If you want to buy anything from trade website you are basically screwed. There is no indication if a player is from one of the regions. So just pray and puke if you stuck in the loading screen again. One reason for that is, that GGG hoster for that regions is blocked by the second largest ISP (Vodafone) in Germany. There are multiple posts in the bug report and the technical help forum that are not helpful at all. So GGGs and some Troll in their forums advice is, to simply ask the provider. But Vodafone has multiple millions customers and will not change their block list for some gamers. Sadly for many of us, Vodafone is the only option to get reasonable internet in Germany, so no options for us there.

    Sadly GGG is not willing to help us either. But all the power is in there hands to fix that issues that is known for this long:

    • select a server provider that is not on provider block lists

    • integrate save fallback routes for trading

    • integrate cross instance trading

    • never let the user enter an infinite loading screen because of an avoidable connection issue

    So i am a bit desperate now because the situation did not change for such a long time now and every time i have to hit ALT+F4 again it gets worse. I'm afraid without any attention they will change nothing.

    Why does crafting have to be gambling? Now instead of playing the CoC bow build I was excited about and spent 2 weeks planning and saving up for, I'm just quitting the league frustrated b/c all my progress was deleted with absolutely nothing to show for it. FeelsReallyBad🙁

    10000 Gwennen Rerolls (How many HHs?)

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 06:56 AM PDT

    10000 Gwennen Rerolls (How many HHs?)

    Recently I hit a video where Grimro shares his experience on Gwen. So here I am with the result of 10000 rerolls!

    Keep in mind that everything is worth nothing except HH in this gamble.

    I found a few attempts of big rerolls on Gwen. Grimro takes 1 HH in 3000 rerolls, mistercop 2 in 5000. So it seems like 1 in ~3000 at that time.

    At first, I bought 5000 rerolls for 75ex just to be safe to make at least one HH, to test the strategy, and see the profit/h. It took me 30 minutes to buy all the staff and ~1.5 hours to click it. So about 2 hours. If I got at least one HH it would be ~16ex/2 hours > ~8ex/h which isn't bad at all. BUT I didn't.

    I went with a big loss, but I thought to come back tomorrow and eventually take my money back (maybe I just got unlucky)

    So again > 5000 rerolls > 75ex > ??? HHs > U're right > Nothing (zero)

    It hurts. I almost bought another five thousand..

    I don't recommend doing this, but if you feel lucky, check this first:

    https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fB5MhWqbFlShI_31TGJVvEYP_-va4B0Um28lXko4-gw

    There are my data and others that I found. I think it would be great if we can collect more to know the real chance for HH.

    Results: 150ex loss

    Ah

    Here we go again...

    The state of POE on console?

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 08:17 AM PDT

    POE has never played well on PS4 but this league is a joke. The official forum is full of thread after thread of console players; PS4, PS5 and both Xboxes who are crashing multiple times an hour and the threads are being ignored.

    I have lost heist loot, failed a Veritania fight because the storm wouldn't load until post death and thrown away dozens of portals. Running with any type of efficiency is out the window as I can not get past 3 (? at most if lucky) maps without a crash. At least once per day my system crashes so hard I have to unplug it and do a couple reboots.

    Wired connection, reinstalled the game etc etc and nothing; it's on their end. I ran last league in the same house with the same set-up but wireless over wifi with no problems.

    Does GGG not care? People have been asking and complaining for weeks. What is the next step? Quit the game? If POE bricks my PS do I have any options? I love the game but this is a comically bad joke. If enough people complain to MS and PS can that force them to fix their shit? They are excepting money for mtx of course, that still works.

    Loot from 60 Black scythe Logbooks! AMA

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 12:18 PM PDT

    Loot from 60 Black scythe Logbooks! AMA

    Hello there Exiles.

    A few days ago i made a post about loot from 70 blight maps. It got very positive feedback, so i figured i would make one for logbooks aswell. Here is a link to the blight post if anyone is interrested:

    Yet another overview of 35 blighted maps! AMA : pathofexile (reddit.com)

    Lets go on to the logbooks!

    DISCLAIMER: I have not been sweating with setting up the perfect explosions for the logbooks. If you do, you will most certainly be able to pull some more profit out of each logbook.

    My progress is as follows: Buy 60 Black scythe logbooks, blessed orb until decent modifiers, alch + vaal, and GO!

    I went for "runic monsters are duplicated" if i had the chance, otherwise dynamite placement were pretty casual.

    In my 60 logbooks i met 5 bosses, which all were killed.

    Jewellers were traded for fusings, div cards turned in, incubaters used etc. to save space. Even with that, i filled 2 quadtabs.

    Total investment: 26ex (60logbooks x60c, blessed orbs, alch, scour, vaals)

    Total loot: 105ex

    Total profit: 79ex

    The profit consists of:

    2 quad tabs of random loot: 44ex

    The following black scythe artifact:

    Grand 5783 - 1156c / 8ex

    Greater 31.684 - 1056c / 7,3ex

    Common 54.518 - 1298c / 9ex

    Lesser 61.163 - 339c / 2,3ex

    Exotic 365 - 2190c / 15ex

    Noteable drops:

    Synthesised 6% strength ring: 20ex

    Synthesised 15% strength amu: 4ex

    Intuitive leap: 1,4ex (included in the loottab value)

    Rain of splinter 30% - 1,4ex (included in the loottab value)

    2 Large 8 passive chaos cluster - 1ex (included in the loottab value)

    It took my approximatly 10 hours to complete, which gives us: 7,9ex/hour

    Without the ring this would be: 5,9ex/hour

    I think the rounds it up, if you have any question feel free to ask!

    Stay safe :)

    The most frustrating fight ever

    Posted: 28 Aug 2021 07:00 PM PDT

    My 3.15 experience

    Posted: 29 Aug 2021 03:49 AM PDT

    Wanted to share my experience this league and what I learned along the way.

    1. I league started as a steel skill champion with Lancing Steel as my main boss set-up. It did amazingly well still and managed to get the 12 passives in the Uncharted realms fairly quick in my mind(2 weeks after league launch). Bossing is by far in my view the most reliable source of income at league start with the unique drops being fairly valuable and the bases as well. Did the mistake of identifying the watchers eyes myself and that costed me a lot of money. I got garbage mods and lost around 30 ex of profit in the process. Things I learned : The build completely changes when you equip paradoxica and saviour and the next huge upgrade is the pride watchers eye. There is no huge difference between The Nomad or ryslatha as the belt. Another observation is (for softcore) with the nerfs to fortify there is no point of investment into buffing the effect in my oppinion. As a cheap solution for helmet I used Alpha's Howl until very late when I had a lot of money and crafted a life chaos and -9 to phys warlord helmet. I also used a Lioneye's Vision for the chest with no clusters and this performed extremely well until again with a lot of investment you get your -20 mana, crit chest with clusters. This is the char I min-maxed until I sold everything to buy a HH for my 3rd char I will write about later.
    2. Death's Oath Occultist - after 1 month of the league I got bored of bossing and wanted to do some atlas strategies and logbook farming. I really enjoy the playstyle for pure Death's Oath characters so I leveled an Occultist. The goal was to have a fast mapping character with 100% chaos explosions. I have to say the result is amazing and I managed to make a very fast and tanky character. Things I learned: Viridi's Veil is the go to helmet with 2 magic rings. The gem setup in the helmet is Despair, enfeeble, enhance and blasphemy. This makes the character very tanky and you rarely die with a 4.5k life pool. 2 obliteration wands with corrupted aoe if possible will make the mapping very enjoyable. If you want to be faster and even more tanky a Chainbreaker plus Berserk setup will work great. The downside is you will need to remove and place back 1 gem from the Death's Oath for it to do damage and you will need mana regen for the Berserk sustain to feel good. I did towers with this char t16 to start farming for a head hunter. Couple of harvest gambles that I lost with the nurse put me back quite a lot and I decide to build a mf character. Looked on poe.ninja for some inspiration and settled on a mf carrion golem elementalist.
    3. Changed the DO character into the MF carrion golem elementalist and failed miserably. MF without a party or a properly geared archer or wander seems lackluster not to mention that even in juiced lower tier maps the drops are not much different. I then decided to respec again into a herald of thunder elementalist. At this point I decided to sell my gear from the champion to buy a HH and this is the character I am playing currently. It's a 88% max res lightning resistance and its very smooth to play. The 88% max res is coming from agnerod South, helm, implicit storm's gift, 2 small clusters. I am still tinkering with the build at this point to see what it can do but it's a very enjoyable experience so far. Main downside are packs with allies cannot die and any invulnerable mechanic that will stop the leech.

    Overall cool league experience, for sure slowed down compared to previous leagues but I enjoyed it. Time to resume my real life and wait for 3.16.

    Inquisitor nerf harsher than others

    Posted: 28 Aug 2021 02:36 PM PDT

    Has GGG ever elaborated why an ascendacy that was already niche (basically only used in heavy crit+regen builds) got DIRECTLY nerfed, indirectly nerfed via the consecrated ground crit chance removal which also affects his penetration node as a consequence.

    The ascendancy had 5% playrate so 3% less than raider last league. Now raider is at 15%! and inquisitor is at 0.6% in Softcore. 1% in Hardcore.

    I'm sorry but what the fuck is this? What internal statistics did GGG use and what warranted the nerf of Inquisitor? This is unacceptable by any metric GGG told us about. Fine remove the ailment immunity but then do it from every class.

    I may repeat an issue that was talked about but I found myself baffled again at this blatant favoritism. Shit like this actually warrants a compensation buff mid league. It would thematically make sense for Inquisitor to have some Curse reduction or partial immunity for example just from his name.

    Previously GGG only gutted ascendancies like this if they dominated the Meta both in softcore and hardcore and even the nerfs to Assasin and Necro were not as harsh as Inquisitor has gotten.
