PoE

I need some late league crafting advice I need some crafting advice. I'm in allflame and was hoping to make a +6 lighting staff for a spark build. I'm having what is likely my worst crafting luck in my personal PoE history by a wide margin. It feels like I'm doing something wrong so I'd like some advice. I'm using a combination of different methods, mainly boat crafting and the recombinator. My understanding is if I have a +2 all spells and a +4 lighting spells isolated that when you recombinator them you have a 33.3% chance of success. Unfortunately I've failed close to 20 recombinators in a row without hitting a +6. I'm using unpredictable recombination so that's not the issue. I have a really good base that has T1 cast speed and T1 spell crit, and I'm using the brinehook method to attempt to preserve those across attemps, but that also means it's fairly expensive each fail. Between creating a new staff with either +2 all or +4 lightning and then isolating that and adding brinehook I'm probably 30-50 divines in the hole making this, so it's already been more expensive then just buying one but I'm kinda committed at this point (sunk cost ftw) I haven't done recombinating since sentinel league but have tried to do good research on how it works now, but I'm hoping there is something I'm not understanding that I'm doing wrong. https://redd.it/1wyom6r @GGPoE

PoE1 can count to 4. # PoE 2 occupied internal version numbers 4.X.X due to historical reasons. Today's update changes the version number from 4.5.5 to 0.5.5, finally allowing PoE1 to use 4.X as its version number. https://redd.it/1wyreri @GGPoE

Better Trading Web Extension Is anyone using Better Trading Web Extension, and having all of the booked marked items throwing up this error? I have not had this happen during the current leg before, its quite annoying as i had 3 char worth of items saveed for quick reference. I know that this error often happen when an old leg finished, but not had it happen in leg before. If you have sugestions for an alternative software, please let me know. Thanks, https://preview.redd.it/3s0egejyesth1.png?width=1183&format=png&auto=webp&s=d44ba6f8511d0bb14443c13e598cd2eb5acb6a0d https://redd.it/1wyv29z @GGPoE

Which league mechanic deserves the next pinnacle? The league is a month out and there's still no official info, so I went down the boss rabbit hole. In the Zizaran dev interview, GGG said they want to add "a lot more league pinnacle bosses", and that each one would probably come with a bloodline. They also said 3.30 endgame changes will reach "content outside of maps such as bosses". So here's my guess at which mechanics are next in line. Mechanics that already have a boss (going by the bloodline list) Harvest (Oshabi) Ultimatum (Trialmaster) Delve (Aul) Sanctum (Lycia) Delirium (Simulacrum) Expedition (Olroth) Betrayal (Catarina) Bestiary (Farrul) Breach (Tul and Esh) Ritual (King in the Mists) Abyss (Zorath, added in 3.29) That leaves a lot of major mechanics with nothing at the end of them. Most likely Blight. This is the one they named directly as a mechanic that should get "a proper pinnacle end-game boss". No timeline, but it's the only one called out by name. Blight has had nothing to chase at the top end since Titanic Blight farming died. Mirage (Saresh). Not a new boss, but Mirage is confirmed for 3.30 and the belt stays. They said the boss won't be "as easy to access" as in the Mirage league. So expect Saresh back, just locked behind more work. Maybe they Lock the belt behind the uber version of the boss. Possible Legion. The devs pointed out the monster hiding in the crystal in the Domain of Timeless Conflict as foreshadowing a Legion pinnacle. They also said "not anytime soon", so this one is more 3.31+ in my book. Breach (Xesht). PoE1 already has Vruun, Marshal of Xesht, and PoE2 has Xesht as its Breach pinnacle. Keepers already ported PoE2's Breach, so a Xesht fight would fit. Mercenaries. The devs themselves floated Mercenaries as a "major mechanic or not depending on your point of view". An Infamous mercenary boss would be fun. Long shots Beyond. Pacts already gave it a theme: a pinnacle demon you make the deal with. Ess

Anyone up to a private league today? Planning to start one but don't want to be alone as I can start ssf that case. Anyone want to join? Can start in about 2 hours. https://redd.it/1wyyf0t @GGPoE

Atlas Tree Advice needed - White Map Farms Hello everyone, so I heard that mercenary items (like exclusive uniques) can be farmed even at white maps without really affecting the drops, so I was trying to make a page/loadout of atlas skill tree that just farms content on white maps. Would like to know what other content can be done on white maps without hurting the rewards much. Beastiary/Einhar is the first one that comes to mind since I don't really care about the drops of the beasts, as long as I run on the correct tier of map I can have a chance of finding the specific beast I want I assume? Not making the map rare/corrupted also makes those beasts easier to capture I assume? What other contents can be farmed on white maps? https://redd.it/1wyw3cz @GGPoE

PhysDOT Elementalist HELPPP I'm doing a phys dot Elementalist and would like to know where I can improve my build https://poe.ninja/poe1/profile/EbkCodi-1331/standard/character/MyLastKBbuildROCKED No I haven't been following a guide this is kinda a homebrew so I'm truly lost beyond the skill tree and some jewels idk how else to scale it. I'm shooting for a autobomber style build or 1 button build. Also is it possible to scale foulborn poet pen into endgame? I don't see why not with a phys dot elementalist? https://redd.it/1wyr6k4 @GGPoE

Fresh start in play station server 3.29 help hi all, I am done with PC league and just want to get a whole refresh on console. I want to try out luminary this time.

I’m in North America :) https://redd.it/1wytrjr @GGPoE

Social Interaction This is my 2nd full league and I've learned a lot, went 40/40, took a character to 100, grinded to what I consider a mirror plus level build the hard way. I love the game! I've made a lot of mistakes and you veteran exiles are absolutely unapologetic to rookie mistakes and ruthless in your commentary. The game is like a constant learning experience and like life you learn a lot of stuff by making mistakes and then correcting. Anyway, I'm a middle aged dad who doesn't get out too much anymore, and wondering if anyone has any good groups that voice chat/hang out and play together (but separately) where you can just socially engage in the evenings (East NA) and weekends and ask questions, share successes/failures. I know it's late in the league now but I miss that from other games I've played. Global chat is ok, but miss actually talking and getting to know people. So please let me know if interested now or in the future or just roast me for being a noob looking for interaction/guidance. I'll also help others with my limited but growing knowledge if needed. https://redd.it/1wyizxs @GGPoE

I'm a dummy I'm playing my first Scion luminary and I made it all the way to level 92 before it occurred to me to invest in mercs in the Atlas. Why? Idfk. I was so busy having a great time with harvest and betrayal and the occasional allflame that it didn't even occur to me to ALSO INVEST IN THE THING THAT MAKES LUMINARIES COOL. Yes, I'm new. Roast me anyways. I deserve it. https://redd.it/1wz7p7s @GGPoE
