PoE2DB: Path of Exile 2 Reddit Latest Discussion

So, where do these small radius jewels go if I'm trying to use them for chaos builds?

I think they need to rethink the placement or radius of the jewels because I'm playing as a Lich Witch and these small ones are more affordable BUT also pretty useless because their range never reach any small or notables passive clusters that I really want. I wish they'd rethink the position at least of these sockets, maybe in the middle of some clusters (based on the class as well) because adding a functionality that's totally useless feels bad man. In order for my class to benefit from *this* particular jewel, I think I'd have to go Frost Lich or extra elemental damage. The other socket placements are EVEN WORSE. And I understand that we as players have the option to buy the larger radius jewels but then, what is the point of THESE ONEs in general? This jewel is perfect for my lich (extra chaos damage, are of effect, duration of damaging ailments) but there's absolutely no place where I CAN use it because it has a small radius.

Multiple interacting skills - Am I screwing myself

I just started playing this past month and started with the recommended LS build. My question is: Does using the electrocute support gem on Herald of Thunder doing more damage than good? I put electrocute on Herald hoping it would allow me to gain frenzy charges from combat frenzy, but I don't notice myself gaining frenzy charges from it at all, and I'm worried it's disrupting shock damage from lightning spear and storm lance. Advice appreciated.

Is there any way to work out if a ring increases your damage without pob?

I've had this issue for ages but wonder if there's any easy way for me to work it out. I play on console and don't use pob, I quite often buy what I think is an upgrade, and it ends up a lot of the time either being marginal, or not an upgrade. For example, I want to upgrade one of my rings, mine currently has: 22 to 34 fire/9 to 10 cold/1 to 15 lightning and I've seen a ring (it's very expensive for me, 3div) with 21 to 25 fire/9 to 13 cold/3 to 69 lightning Is there any way I can work out if rings (or any item really I guess) is a big damage increase for me without buying it and trying it. I'm seeing that big lightning increase and wondering if that means a big damage increase. I have no problem wasting ex's on stuff if I'm flush, but I can't really afford to spend 3div on a ring and then get stuck with it if it's not what I need. Any help appreciated

Paladin Divine Pack - PS5

I’m playing on PS5 console and I had bought the basic Paladin pack as there’s no direct offer to the second tier Paladin Divine Pack. I thought I would be able to upgrade from the basic pack, but there’s no such option. The only Paladin related pack was still the basic one which I already bought. Can anyone advise?

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.
