Blood Magic interactions (bugs?)

I was experimenting with Blood Magic node "skill mana costs converted to life costs and you have no mana". And I found two weird interactions: - Lich Eternal Life Taking it word by word: "Your Life cannot change while you have ES." So my costs of spells are in Life via Blood Magic. I do have life for the costs, but I cannot use it as my life cannot be changed. Shouldn't it make it work for free tho? When I take life damage while having ES I don't get the damage, but that life damage gets subtracted from what I take on ES. But when I want to use my life to cast I cannot. Inconsistent logic imo. Second one is Sanguimancy from Bloodmage: Skills get the life costs equal to mana costs. Blood magic converts the mana cost into life costs. In effect we have doubled life costs on skills. This one logically makes sense, but is awful to use - bonestorm for example costs like 1500 life on barely above skill level 20.

Tactician build viable for HC

Anyone have come across a good tac build that works in HC? Would like to hear what you guys have actually tried. Mine seems weak and I wont be going deep into maps with it

Worst disconnect?

I was at my first "moment of zen" map. Got a good unique helm (Mind of the Council) which upgrades my DPS from 88K to 102K, but lowering some not-so-important defense stats. I was switching my old helm to see the stats changing. The moment I picked up the unique helm from inventory I got disconnected without able to put it in head slot or back in inventory. Quick reconnect, "map failed" and unique has gone... I am lvl 92 SSF and frustrated as hell. Seen many disconnects, lost currency, lost loot etc. many many times but this made my blood boil. Rant over :/

Juice and waystones should be removed after map was failed/cleared

Why on earth does this game, on opening map, delete modifiers and waystone before anything else? The guy who writes backend clearly doesn't know what transaction is and should be PIPed until he learns how to write things into the db

Long time lurker. You guys love the orbs

Mid thirties. I’ve got like 700 hr of solo grind and enough turned uniques into chance shards to make you all sick. Lvl 89 witchbane. Basically just shock grenade everyone to death after breaking armor and concentration. Stopped after beating the Arbitor of ash. Bricked my level 92 deadeye. Putting it down for now but open to guild up.

The closest I got to perfection this league (so far)

Dropped from a simulacrum with the 4 T1 mods shown and life prefix + life regen suffix. Used 6 whittles and 2 dextral erasure and a little vaal and voila.

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.
