POE2db : Path of Exile 2's News, Build Guides, Database - Poe2db.org

The most evil combination

GGG please maintain the visual clarity and quality of VFX. And please change Deli.

I've really come to appreciate the general quality of the VFX in POE 2. I mean, the quality is industry leading at this point. However, just as important, Over 90% of skills look like they belong in the game world rendering-wise, even when scaled up. The VFX itself and the way it is lit. The end result is very pleasing to look at. It's one of the biggest advantages over POE1, where gameplay often looks jarring to the eye. In POE 2, even the builds that are gigablasting entire screens somehow look good a lot of the time. I can still mostly tell what's going on. Heck even the crazy autobomber stuff seems to maintain this mostly. There are definitely exceptions though, for example whirling slash can look bad. Especially if you scale up AOE. Another example off the top of my head is those blood drops that fall in an AOE after you kill some enemy in deli (I think). They somehow don't fit. The other major caveat is Delirium. Delirium is by far the best juicing option for late game mapping, without exception. Scaled up Delirium is much harder but FAR more rewarding to run. It is basically mandatory beyond a certain point. Currently, Delirium completely destroys the visual appeal of the map. It's far too overbearing, and the fog VFX, while good, doesn't hold up in a lot of cases. This 100% needs to be toned down and reworked. Going forward and introducing new mechanics and skills (probably with some power creep), please make it a point to maintain the quality and visual clarity. The VFX, even when juiced or scaled up, should always feel like they are being rendered in the game world. Even if this comes at the cost of some 'oomph', I think it's worth it. This is already true for the majority of cases, and it is a huge win for POE2. It's the difference between gameplay being a pleasure to look at vs. being jarring to look at.

(HCSSF) Struggling with single target dps

https://poe2.ninja/profile/AtlasWeller-8632/character/BloodySpearsAgain Really enjoying Blood Mage LS but currently struggling to get single target damage working with rake+bloodhunt. Is there anything drastic I’m missing from my build as to why it’s not working yet? Recently got a tangletongue at 10% crit but not using in case I die as I want to wait for a div drop and clear currently isn’t an issue. Any help or advice is appreciated!

Please help me come up with a name for this build LOL

Turn this into a watchable in-game monthly/weekly event.

This should be used as future content in game. Some sort of monthly/weekly boss vs boss event that we get to watch in game and gamble currency on who we think is winning, like some sort of boxing match.
