Gas Arrow Lich

Preface this with Im a horrible build maker but I like making classes use stuff they weren't meant to use (caster titan etc.) but this rn is my plan for either league start/second build. Rn main idea scale mana for unholymight. Depending on if there are any curse on hit stuff may put the other 2 points into curse explosions and hexproof or curse explosion and the jewel slot. would love feedback

Is this a bait build creator?

https://youtu.be/_EMN3yVcOlk?si=c8l8JPumMIwQ_Fbr I've seen people saying to dismiss this creator before but I've never followed any of their content.

Is it even possible to level up as a [mostly] EQ warrior? (this is a genuine cry for help 😭)

I'm close to the end of act 3 normal as a warrior since I wanted to try it out to see if I'd play him in the next patch - the fantasy of setting everything up for a single, huge slam in EQ to delete enemies sounds fun to me, class-fantasy wise. But seriously how do people use Earthquake in the early game/campaign? I'm not even joking when I say that my damage might as well be negative, even when combining EQ with Shield Wall + Infernal Cry + Volcanic Fissure + shredding some armor (and even trying using a totem alongside everything). **A non-socketed Shield Charge deals more single target damage in boss fights than my jewelered-up EQ.** What's the secret to using this skill early I don't get it. Couldn't even kill Mektul in time before he reached the end 💀. It's a skill that's given to the player right away, it can't be that it gets useful later on, doesn't make sense. I specifically want to level in the way where I'm setting up a huge combo specifically for EQ to deal damage - I'm not interested in Boneshatter, Rolling Slam or totems as main damage sources for example (although I did try even using a totem to try boost my DPS and it felt clunky to use, I don't like it, I prefer direct attacks) - I just want the fantasy of bonking ground hard and explosion going everywhere around me. Any tips?

Pathfinder Concoctions while Mounted

The current Rhoa Mount gem description only mentions bow attacks and throwing spears. But concoctions being a very narrow skill (limited to an ascendancy node) wouldn't likely appear on the gem description. PLEASE GGG LEMME THROW FLASKS FROM BIRD-BACK

what is the difference between Path of Exile 1 and Path of Exile 2

Damage conversion works in different way. In poe 1 you can have pure physical damage 2h axe, scale it with increase physical damage passive nodes, more physical damage support gems, and than convert all that damage into fire and scale it from increase fire/elemental damage passives. In poe 2 it will only scale from fire/elemental damage passives, and conversion will work only for base physical damage.
