So Accuracy Stacking is really easy in this game, even without widowhail + quiver shenanigans. Random garbage I had sitting in my stash + some tree nodes and hte Falcon Dive on the tree. No jewels



I havent put any effort at all into making it into a real build because I have no currency because I hate mapping and also dont feel like solving the mana problems it would have unless using auto attacks.

I'd guess 75k accuracy is pretty easy to hit, and 100k should be very doable with some currency.

So I killed the Breach pinnacle boss on first try. No problem. Farm up another 300 shards and add +2 to pinnacle zone difficulty, and I die when the boss does that fucking big pimp slap coming out of the ground over and over again. So we just lose the breach stone and eat experience loss when you fail? One f'ing shot?! Ok, that kind of sucked, but at least I found a Citadel finally. Died to the boss and now the Citadel is a failed map. One fucking try?!? Ok, this shit is starting to lose the fun-factor for me...

You want some divs to see how far you go with it? I'm sitting on some stacks and probably not playing again for a long time with no new classes on the horizon and MH:Wilds coming soon.

Yeah they need to reevaluate the punishment after failing, especially for pinnacle content. Sure, take the xp, but making you have to re-farm materials and/or find another citadel is terrible.....they seem pretty intent on keeping it that way, though.

People get better at things through practice and they've decided to harshly limit how much practice you can get through much of the end game. It's a terrible design to set as a baseline and encourages all manner of not playing the game. Meta build guides, fight walkthrough videos, paying for achievements/kills, endless Path of Building optimization and the like. Make no attempt until you are certain your character is powerful enough to skip as much of any encounter as can be skipped.

If I would have had to learn a fight like Sirus when each attempt took 30+ maps all with one portal I'd have quit Path of Exile and never, ever returned.

Interesting idea but I couldn't make a promising start in pob. It feels like the build needs another axis to go with the absurd attack speed.

Definitely would have to use mace strike for single target. Mana on kill should be enough for mapping.
