    @themightypuck Could you change the guild tag from <WANGIN> to <PA WANGIN>

    That might give a bit more context, so folks think we are slightly less juvenile.

  • chocoboliciouschocobolicious Registered User regular
    I figure a group of people willing to put WANG in their guild name probably wouldn't care about how juvenile they may or may not appear.

    I was just wondering if there was another tag we could toss in there. Like BANGING_WANGING or GREAT_WANGS_OF_FIRE.

  • Big Red TieBig Red Tie beautiful clydesdale style feet too hot to trotRegistered User regular
    yeah there's no way to make anything with wang in it less bad

    other than changing the name entirely because of how bad it is

    Eh. Kinda difficult to barter for items when you have <WANGIN> prefacing every message.

    No one in trade gives a fuck about your name, man. Have you seen the character names people play with in PoE?

    thats the only reason it doesnt matter

    because the poe community is already worse than just putting wang in your guild name!

    not a dealbreaker by any means

    I'm having a lot of fun with Nemesis so far. I had a really close call with a Hexfont devourer and a pack of blue snakes in Act 2, but other than that it's been pretty smooth sailing.

    I want to try out Kripp's discharge build, but I think you need some specific legendaries for it to work, like the extra curse items and stuff.

    it's really just a burning discharger, the curses aren't required. also windscream and dodres damning are cheap

    I'm pretty sure I'm not missing anything here mathematically, but I want to be 100% sure:

    Say I'm building a Dual Strike, Adder's Touch Ranger rocking 2x daggers and trying to crit people for Big Numbers

    A (hypothetical) 10% melee damage passive node is way, way better than a (hypothetical) 10% crit multiplier node, right?

    If someone in Nemesis has or finds a 3-linked piece below level 30 with, preferably, STR+DEX requirements, let me know.

    yeena is wearing a blood monkey pelt, and yes the hands are what cover up her bits. The first time I noticed it I thought she was topless and holding them herself.

    It really depends what you're trying to do...

    There's a couple of very, very, low rolls there, and it's got nothing but damage going on.

    @_J_ ,

    I'm going to edit this as I go, but:

    -You're spending like 8 points to get over to Diamond Flesh, but you're foregoing a 6% to all elemental resistances node that is literally connected to your current build (you could also grab the adjacent +15% fire resist if you so desire).

    -You're similarly reaching for Sword Damage + Life nodes near Diamond Flesh, but the efficiency of those nodes is wasted if you're spending a bunch of superfluous skill points to get there. You could take Sword Damage + Armour nodes that are adjacent to your existing build, and put the saved points into straight +Life nodes. In fact, you're missing two Sword Damage + Life nodes on the way to Iron Grip.

    -There's a second +15% Fire Resist node adjacent to your current build; you could nearly max fire resist with a clever reshuffle of points. If you do this, you can also take the 15% and 10% Armour nodes near the Marauder start instead of +10 Strength nodes.

    -This is where my ignorance of Spectral Throw comes back to bite me, but if you care about 1H weapon damage, there's a +15% One Handed Weapon Damage node just a bit south of the Big Ring Of Life that is adjacent to your current build.

    -Once you have the gear to take advantage, I have to imagine you want the Elemental Adaptation notable that's right there (a ways west of the Templar start). Jumping from 75% to 77% max resistances is an 8% reduction in elemental damage.

    -Whoa, almost missed this: you can trade out +10 Strength for +15% Melee Damage right at the Scion starting point.

    -And with some more reshuffling, you can both pick up that 15% One Handed Weapon Damage node I mentioned *and* get up to Athleticism. See the build below:

    How about this?

    EDIT: Yet more finagling. Now that I'm reaching for Athleticism, I can cut two +Armour node for +Life nodes straight up, and then I cut the 15% and 10% Armour nodes near the Marauder start because I could replace them with a single +10 Strength node. That gets me back to 72 points.

    I'm not an expert on Nemesis or anything, but that life amount seems pretty low, @_J_

    @Griswold Thanks!

    I was thinking about abandoning that path. Finding quality 1h swords is very difficult, and my gear is getting to the point where I don't really *need* diamond flesh. I set the goal of reaching it a while ago, and by the time I got enough points my upgrades may have made it unnecessary.

    You are right that i'm going out of my way to get there.

  • TheKoolEagleTheKoolEagle Registered User regular
    so question for those of you that have played more than I have, my nemesis shadow is a piece of shit at this point, and I had originally thought that the respec points were full respec, or enough to get rid of an entire limb of skills.

    is there any full respecs in the game or is he just going to die eventually before finishing the game on normal (currently in act 3)

    Yeah but as a physical dagger build, the physical damage rolls are the only ones that are really, really important.

    So how do I join the PA Guild, is it the account name or character name I get an invite sent to?

    That might give a bit more context, so folks think we are slightly less juvenile.

    So the tag is created by putting maps in 6 slots. Each map has a letter associated with it. In order for me to change the name, someone will need to donate some maps. Normal is the best place obviously to do this.

    A shitty 1h sword of +1 to switch to 2H. I think it is....60 - 80ish. I do not recall.

    I need to figure out how people can do damage while using a 1H and a shield. I think the secret may be axes or maces, because from what I can tell 1h swords are pretty damn awful. Also, more dmg passives.

    Admittedly, I focused upon suitability rather than damage So while it takes me a while to kill anything my health pool tends to stay pretty full.

  • _J__J_ Pedant Registered User, __BANNED USERS regular

    It can be changed. I was thinking, "Will trade 10 chroms for 30", or whatever that quote was from the other night.

    Other possibilities:

    Barter systems are difficult
    Evidencing the need for coinage
    desyncing your desyncs
    binding my /oos macro
    Seriously. Why the fuck do we keep desyncing?
    auto-casting everything
    metagaming currency exchange rates
    Fuck Storm Herald
    Fuck Corrupting Blood

    or anything else folks would prefer.
