Nah, afaik it means that magic and rare items don't drop from monsters. You can still craft them though.

Yeah this is correct, monsters don't drop blue/yellow items, just whites, currency, uniques, etc. It seems like a fun way to focus a bit more on crafting gear, leveling and mapping, but on the flip side also less trans/alt/alch income from vendor trash lol... | ||

I can't fathom having fun with something like SSF + no stash + no vendor + no blue/yellow. just seems masochistic | ||

Warcries seem pretty strong. Shouldn't this make Berserker busted? Since warcries won't share cooldown anymore you can have 2-4 in your build. The fast attack speed nature of zerker doesn't have great synergy with the Exert mechanic though. I wonder if something like Tec Slam zerker would be strong. you can get "covered in Ash" from infernal cry so Chieftain doesn't seem super necessary | ||

I could imagine playing a 2h staff Berserker with Sweep and getting glancing blow and instant warcry. Probably would use Intimidating Cry since it looks the best for physical damage buffing. I do wonder how much double damage chance it gives though, I don't think it gives 100% even if the GGG post kinda implies it. | ||

At least it's stuff to think about. I'm still defaulting to plain old Tec Slam Jugg but will keep an eye on how good these turn out to feel, either testing myself leveling or just watching what the streamerzzz do. | ||

warcries and exert means more damage, but well that really help general clunkiness? I suppose the AoE warcry or the infernal warcry can help give massive AoE and thus improve clear. But the faster DW builds will also benefit from the warcry changes even if it's not to the same degree I was thinking a great budget bosser would be Chieftain Warchief. Just slap down the totems and spam several warcries to get the sweet exert bonuses I'm going to play EQ Jugg no matter what but I have a bad feeling it won't be able to really handle T16 juiced maps unless I have really good gear | ||

But each "press" of a warcry will feel better with a 2H since you don't smoke through the charges instantly, meaning you might not have to press the warcry as often, meaning it doesn't slow you down as much. Idk that's just really broad discussion though, both will feel like shit if the difference is only pressing it every 5 seconds instead of every 3... | ||

Think that WC will be useful for most classes there is a defensive cry, one that buff allies Attack, one that is defensiv. One that summuns but think u need to be Melee for that to be useful | ||

Also the teased craftings options are cool, especially for SSF (which I'll do this league, been a while). | ||

Glad they reworked warcries, but not happy that it happens after cluster jewels made them about as mandatory as impale mechanic. Melee seems so pigeon holed to fix their problems. | ||

Note that if the warcry becomes instant however you don't get the second charge, but just the CDR. | ||

Also the teased craftings options are cool, especially for SSF (which I'll do this league, been a while). Yeah, Tribal Fury's a big one. Trying to figure if the Agnostic moving to the tree allows a different way of running Righteous Fire from L36 or so - I've done it via a bunch of life flasks and Blasphemy-Poacher's Mark, but that was five or so leagues ago, and I'm sure things have changed a little since then. Since I left Delirium a little early, I hadn't really considered how cluster jewels opened up builds that normally would suffer from being on the wrong side of the passive tree; mulling over things like a Fire Trap Chieftain where you can grab Set and Forget/Guerilla Tactics/Arcane Pyrotechnics from a couple of cluster jewels while keeping the league start/SSF-friendly beef/fire damage from Chieftain+left hand side of the tree. Trying to watch some spell Marauder leveling things - found VoDs of Goratha in the Marauder race from last weekend (spellslinger WoC/Purifying Flame Chieftain); think that's the same setup Heshla ran in the class race to 80 to get first Marauder. I need to practice using Smoke Mine! | ||

Spamming Infernal or Seismic Cry for clear, Intimidating Cry for anything stronger, and Enduring Cry as another defensive cooldown / oh shit button, is a lot of good options. Warcries do come out pretty quickly too. And it can mean that most of your hits are exerted, = big damage. It will slow you down noticeably though... maybe its a good setup for when you are low on gear / early league, but otherwise, I'm begging for some 50%/100% increased Warcry cast speed nodes -- using smoke mine takes a bit of practice but it's not THAT different from using other movement skills. there's a rhythm to throwing the mine then hitting detonate right after, not too different if you've played any other mine builds. It's super worth it for most builds leveling | ||

-- https://www.reddit.com/r/pathofexile/comments/h099af/regarding_poe_overlay_and_poe_planner_using/ dunno if people care about this sort of thing, but PoE Overlay and PoE Planner are part of Overwolf now, which is apparently shady / ad spammy / malware esque. So beware if you want to use those programs. There's suggestions in the thread on what trade companions to switch to (Awakened PoE Trade or Side Kick) | ||
