Sacrificial Heart

I beat Act 3 for the first time, but I didn’t realize the gateway was going to take me back to the beginning. I am now stuck with the sacrificial heart. I can’t go back to Aggorat, but I also can’t drop it. I don’t want to carry this around through an entire second play though. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Unholy Might DoT Compensation Suggestion/Discussion

We can agree the Lich ascendancy is supposed to be the chaos specialist and Unholy Might not applying to chaos DoTs is disappointing at best? Some suggestions to Necromantic Conduit to make up for the missing DoT dmg, in no particular order: 1) Let Necromantic Conduit also unlock the missing reviving chaos skeletal sorcerer that fires chaos hits. This ensures you consistently have an ally in presence to leverage unholy might. We have the other 3 elemental mages, this is a perfect spot to get a chaos mage. Let it trigger profane ritual where it dies. 2) Contagious reanimated corpses have no expiration timer. 3) Contagion on reanimated corpses remember the bonus power of Contagion as they died. 4) Just add a (non-crittable?) chaos hit to spells that DoT, making them similar to Essence Drain but equal to 30% of the total DoT. 5) Give +X chaos skill levels while not low on mana. 6) etc, etc

Rollback EU server 20 min back

So I just dropped my first divine and the server started lagging. I thought that I'll probably lose the map but it's fine I was close to the end and I correctly looted everything I saw. Server crash, I connect back and there is nothing anymore; no map, no item in my inventory, level down (I leveled up on the map just before)... I guess a rollback happened. What did you lose guys?

End-game mapping variation of Lich Storm Mage

As a preface, this is not a build guide, as I haven't made many tweaks to the build. This is more a showcase of what end game minion Lich looks like if you min max for mapping. Maxroll: [https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/jw3l0eam](https://maxroll.gg/poe2/pob/jw3l0eam) Demonstration: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7OWRmMLJ0c](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7OWRmMLJ0c) Stat: Lvl 37 Storm Mage x13, 70k DPS unbuffed per minion Cap all res. 1.5k health, 9.2k ES, 1k mana We're making use of Alpha Howl to fully utilize Rupture the Soul, in order to explode a screen at a time. As for curse, we're running Temporal Chain + Zone of Control inside a Blasphemy. Temporal Chain is not necessarily for defense, and you can definitely run Conductivity for more damage. Since we're running 60% lightning and 40% chaos damage, I don't like to run Conductivity. Alpha Howl is actually the BIS helm. a +2 / +1 minion ES helm can run you a lot of divines, especially if you want good resistances. An Alpha Howl with +1 enchanted cost me only 13. 100 Spirit gives 3 extra Storm Mage and enough for 1 more summon for Muster. Alpha Howl comes out higher on the damage front. The screen wide presence maintains minion damage even when I'm rushing ahead, something that is impossible with a rare helm. Headhunter gives us enough dexterity to wear Alpha Howl and the occasional blink/move speed affixes make the run a lot more fun. All in all, minions are in a very bad state right now. This build cannot compare with spear builds or flicker but it's the chillest by far. Very light on your GPU if you prefer that drone feel of harmlessly murdering mobs.

What changed? (Returning to the season)

So feeling the itch again, tried PoE 1 again it doesnt do it anymore for me. I played boneshatter leap Smith and LS deadeye. Is the meta still LS or is there something new? Maybe preferably a huntress build.

After a month of grinding! It came home for the second time.

[First post was while grinding for more than four hours a day.](https://www.reddit.com/r/PathOfExile2/comments/1lbht1q/got_me_for_a_second_there_thought_i_finally_hit/thought) Thought it won't drop this league. Relics are most of the time 6 x 20 quant/10 ms with a TDAVR. Feels good to finally be free of sekhemas once more!

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.
