@solidbebe Well it can be 6/2 points and not 4/4.Yes uber lab is extremly difficult i havent ever pass a trial without dying,trials are sick too, i expect some nerfs to both.The problem with lab is (especially in HC), i wait until 50-60 level and then run the 2 first labs at least,because thats the most efficiant way ,you dont need to waste time the reward isnt good in level 30,so i just run blindly in the first 2 labs 30 levels above and most people i think doing the same,thats bad design i think.

I'm pretty hyped to play poe again since I mostly took this season off other than to dick around on hc for the first time near the end. Not sure what build to do. Both mgamahus flame cyclone and HOWA spectral throw look fun, but I'm not sure what the top builds are.

It depends on what ascendancy you're getting, since you're gonna do lab at some point anyways, you might as well do it asap to start leveling faster.

Most people plays as i describe,probably there is a small very high skill percentage like alur who can make these calls ocationally and get advantage.I think the philosophy with 10 acts is to reduce the repetitiveness and 4 labs and 10 acts doesnt make scense to me its too much time in lab.

lab is pretty low risk once you are used to it, most people die because they panic in traps or allow izaro to get partially/fully buffed. Fighting unbuffed izaro in Normal and Cruel is really not too hard, comparable to Kaom in my opinion. Also note that earlier difficulties have fewer trap encounters, and they are simpler to navigate

I would argue if your risk of dying in lab is extremely low, it's MORE efficient to do lab at a level appropriate time (as long as you have relevant flasks / movement skill ready). Because even if the first 2 ascedency nodes don't add much, it's still something that will increase your leveling time, and all the mobs you are killing in the lab aren't wasted xp / time. And then there are classes like Slayer or Pathfinder (poison) who get huge value out of doing norm lab asap.

that all said, since so many people find lab tedious I think it would be fine if they made things easier, as long as they don't dampen uber lab. that shit is so fun to me and a certain portion of the PoE playerbase, that it would be rly sucky if they gutted it to appease everyone

Lab would require a tutorial of its own for ppl to not hate it by the time they're done. Some trials do need a bit of work (looking at you, Piercing Truth), but the lab itself is pretty enjoyable if you have a good movement skill, decent flasks or regen and a rough understanding of trap patterns. But even some streamers seem to simply run through it and hope they don't die. Yes, there are patterns that force you to take a hit or two. That's why you have flasks, and that's why there are mobs to refill said flasks. Doesn't mean it's all mindless running.

On another note, those new jewels that drastically modify a skill are really nice. With the 1h buffs, it almost gives me hope for that elusive Glacial Hammer build!

Map trials are awful. Most of them are harder than the traps that Uber Lab has. Exception would be Stinging Truth which is easy for most characters, some of mine could run through it completely and be done in like 20 sec.

That I doubt, the lava ground one has several small rooms (with doors iirc, didnt play PoE recently) where movement skills are pretty shit to use. And it's huge.

Shield charge with 16% more attack speed gloves move so fast that you dont need to stop and worry about lava damaging you. It's a disgustingly strong build, and thats probably the slowest trial to go through.

I was playing a coc vortex recently, but never done a cospri discharge so cant compare.

Clearspeed is insane(altho i do have lvl 21 gem and shavs for lowlife version)
Clears about as quick as a King of the queen poison LA/TS Assassin.
However many maps have super annoying blocks, rocks, pillars, trees, in the way that make running various map ssometimes annoying(cyclone really needs a QOL upgrade).

I think Assassin version of Cospri's Discharge is fastest. It's also the most expensive to cap out, but it's actually pretty cheap to get going so it doesn't feel that bad.

it's main use is if you have a very high mana cost spell, but want to reserve all or close to all your mana. you're able to continually cast with a Stone Golem + ZO es regen tactic, or the ZO unique flask. I used it on an SRS character league starter, so I could run a bunch of auras but still cast 100+ mana cost srs with no investment in mana nodes. you run EB along with MoM to gain some defensiveness as well.

you can get like 8-9k EHP, but it's strictly worse than CI I would say. IMO it's only useful as league starter before you have currency

staff and boot don't seem useful to me. Mace should have enough dps to be an alternate to marohi. notably higher pdps if my math is right? like 430, while marohi tops out at 416 pdps, lacking inc aoe tho
