So just finished T15 Irradiated Boss for the next skill points. Boss was the Lord of Bones and the Bone Mammoth. Didn't realize that killing the Mammoth was the only requirement. He went down and I got map complete credit and the skill book drop. Then just wasted time killing the Necromancer.

Now I need what for the 3rd set of points? T15 + Irradiated + Waystone Boss Increase?

Also got this to drop and some brief PoE2 Trade searching seems like it might be worth a few exalt?

And then armor should get some actual hardcoded damage mitigation, i'm thinkin if you're character sheet says your estimated armor is 80% you get 1/4 of that value as a less damage stat sorta like a fortify/endurance charge replacement

The entire concept of armor becoming less effective against big hits is needlessly complicated. Just make it do what the tooltip says and scale enemy damage to create the danger level you want.

Cool? What was your build?

And you're still being disingenuous. You're purposefully misinterpreting "frustrating", "not fun", and "needlessly RNG", with "impossible". Yes, Penance insisted you traded because he would rather believe you're a liar than put up with SSF gearing in this game. You had a smooth weapon gearing transition in each act? Your gear didn't lag behind progression by 10s of levels?

Thanks to the weapon spec point system I was able to flex my builds pretty heavily and used a lot of skills as needed. Boneshatter, Shockwave Totem, Seismic/Infernal Cry, Earthshatter, Stampede, HoTG, Ancestral Totem and Sunder all made appearances. My final build was a stampede/warcry/earthshatter/HoTG that focused on armor explode/corpse explode for trash and HoTG for bossing. It is no HoI clear interaction, but it did the job well enough.

The mindset that has infested the average POE player where they need to 1 button full screen without fear of death while crafting the perfect piece (j/k they buy it) is so pervasive anything else is "frustrating", "not fun", and "needlessly RNG". It's not like this wasn't true in POE1 as well. There is a reason why the top players only stick to SSF/HC because the actual gameplay is braindead and this game is only one bad choice from being the same from start to end instead of just at the end.

You barely need shit to clear the campaign flawlessly. You barely need shit to clear T15s flawlessly. I had over 2k hp and capped resists by end of campaign and you can see my stats for T15. As stated in my post all I did to gear was buy from vendors. This is literally what I do on all characters. It's less RNG than trying to find drops from a mob and keeps the entire loot focus on acquiring gold so it is fast.

Nobody said it was impossible. You were being a disingenuous faggot that's why you took on the mantle to play ssf to prove to yourself you could do it. Guess what, nobody gives a shit. You seem to think this game requires skill when all it is is a time thing.

Fucking hilarious you took those words to heart and came here thinking you proved something. Not a single person is impressed.

I play SSF/HC (btw) for FUN so I will smugly post my accomplishments throughout the life of this game so that it festers in their minds that they can't do the same even with access to the finest wares https://www.pathofexile.com/trade2 has available. <3

So I dunno if they removed "shitter" stats in gear. But I'm only lvl 40 but seeing some really well rolled stuff with like all the right stats. I hope this keeps up. I use so many items I find and craft. Not like poe1 where 999/1000 were useless lol.

Also can I get a guild invite? Ashrumbeta and rifkerz

So I finished the campaign and I’m level 67ish and guess that big map is my playground for the next infinity?

I’ve watched a couple of videos but none have been helpful about how to prioritize waystones and what areas of the map to attack first. And even when I did complete parts of the map, it wasn’t clear what I was actually doing or that I even beat the map?

So, any advice on how to go about it and what to prioritize? Is it just spam farming at this point?

You have to kill every rare in a map to complete it. Maps with bosses also need to have the boss killed along with the rares for completion.

After you kill a certain number of monsters, which is not visible to you via the UI, the remaining rares will show up on the map to show you where they are.

Got a map with 10 breaches. Was fun but damn it got laggy as fuck in the end.

Only dropped Splinters mainly but this dropped from the Boss. Seems its more than 10 Ex... Got mega spammed.

What the hell is this even worth, nothing like it on market.

idk but highly recommend vaaling it because if it hits a good extra mod it can be worth signifantly more, possibly several divs

You should work on unlocking the quests for your atlas, the one that says complete 10 T1 maps which will give you 2 points for your atlas tree. Repeat that process for 15 tiers. How you play it is up to you, but there are efficient ways to help sustain waystones and inefficient ways that will potentially leave you out of or dropping down to lower tiers. I'm sure some YouTuber has a guide that will explain it better than I am willing.

That is at minimum a 1 div jewel if not more at this point. Only thing that sucks is that it is rare instead of magic or it could have been really fat 10-20 div+.
