The newest chapter in server issues

As if the months of server issues and loss of maps wasn’t enough of a kick in the balls, today they managed to kick me off the server for “performing too many actions”?!?! Play LS with Spear stab and Wind Serpent and just lost the boss fight by being kicked off prodding the boss. This game just keeps getting better.

Question about uniques for LS

Hi, I am relatively noob and there is soo much to learn when I start poe2 from scratch without prior knowledge. And it takes time to google everything, so I ask here: My stash is filling up with unique items, I have at least 6 chest pieces, and lots of others, they all have weird stats and I have no clue if they are usable for anything. I know tangletongue and astramis, but could you knowledgeable people tell me which uniques that can be useful for LS Amazon? I want to clear stash and make chance orbs out of the not usable uniques I have Thanks in advance, have a nice day folks!

Huntress build which isn't lightning spear

As the title says, I'm looking for a huntress build which doesn't use lightning spear For reference I've lvl 89 huntress and lvl 92 ranger. The ranger is using fubguns build (minus sacred flame and headhunter), and I honestly think ls belongs with deadeye only gue to how easy its to get frenzy charges. I used lightning spear on huntress while levelling but once I played the deadeye variant, I wanted to try something else on huntress. Also I felt the huntress version struggled for frenzy charges So far I've tried lazy exile's spiral volley build (spiral volley for mapping, rake+bloodhunt for bossing), scorpius's lightning arrow build with low life tech (deepest tower). But the problem with these is that spiral volley struggles a lot without frenzy charges and doesn't work in maps with armored monsters, and the lightning arrow build struggles against bossing with very complicated setup. Anyone have any build suggestions (low or mid budget of possible) for huntress which doesn't use lightning spear?

Upgrade CPU or GPU?

Hi, I was wondering if upgrading either CPU or GPU would be more beneficial to raising fps in my case. My current PC: 3700x/3070/32gb ddr4. I play at 4k on my 4k oled tv and get about 40fps. With the in game setting fps chart, cpu 15ms, GPU 25ms. But when mobs and loading new areas, GPU stays the same but cpu spikes 175-200+. Though running NZXT CAM side by side it shows the cpu spikes from like 30-75% and GPU is running at 100? So I’m a little confused there. I only play POE2 and I know it’s still in early access and not optimized as well as it could. I’ve read through many threads saying POE2 is more CPU intensive than GPU. I was either planning on upgrading to a 7700X3D+mobo+ddr5ram or 7090xt or something similar since Nvidia cards are kind of scalped prices atm. I know upgrading either would benefit and future proof a bit but I can only afford one or the other atm. So I was wondering if anyone had any advice on which would give me better fps with situation. Thank you

An unfortunate incident with the Recombinator

I was using the Recombinator in my hideout to check the odds of a potential combine and suddenly, "disconnected from server". Came back to missing items, nowhere to be found. What a way to lose items that are hard to find in the first place.

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.
