The only good part of Sirus is the music. Still don't care for that fight.

What the Sirius fight lacks in design it makes up for in loot table.

Sirus is kinda tough, I usually manage to kill him nowadays, but on A8 there are some things you shouldn't miss. Corrupted Blood immunity is huge. Knowing that you absolutely can't be hit by the 4 rotating lasers even once in the last phase is important as well, since otherwise the die beam deals absolutely retarded damage. I personally like to build so tanky that you can survive die beams (unless you get the debuff, that lasts like 10 sec, which I just mentioned), otherwise you would have to be really good or have crazy amounts of damage.

This league i finally did him often, the one reason i still sometimes die is immediately at the beginning getting just drop bombed by stuff that falls from the sky whiteout any flask/stuff up. :D.

Everything else is pretty easy once you've done it a few times. Imho corrupted blood immunity isn't needed (but good), having some way to avoid or minimize the slows and being speedy seems to help me more. If your not slowed to an absolute crawl, the die beams should never hit you.

It's still not a fun fight but it becomes bearable once you don't get confused anymore.

I normally play solo. But have convinced a friend of mine to give POE a try. So we gonna do a duo. He normally plays wow and Diablo (on a pretty high level) and likes to play melee damage dealer.. So i would like some suggestion for a good duo.

That's a hard question imho because true melee (strike skills) don't go as well in parties anymore when the casters are annihaliting the whole screen in 0.1 seconds and also making it hard to see anything at all. If he wants to play melee I would recommend some sort of slam skill. What would go well with that is some form of minion build because of the aura support (maybe look for something that isn't super cluttery) or some build that isn't super fast but adds some cc. A freeze build could be fun.

I don't mind the Sirus fight (might take me one A8 attempt to "warm up" each league) but to be fair I've been playing fairly safe builds with chill / mobility rather than melee for a while so I might have a skewed idea). Hoping to get to that level of familiarity with Maven.

Waiting around a week or two for Ritual to end and migrate characters from Ritual to Standard SSF - wanting to give a few builds a test-drive before deciding on next league's leaguestarter but relevant gear is split between the leagues (found a few One With Nothings via the Ejoris Delirium nodes, but have the Wildwrap/Fractal Thoughts/relevant Cluster Jewel base etc in SSF Standard).

Mildly intrigued by these Korean Elementalist Fulcrum / Static Strike builds:
https://poe.ninja/challenge/builds?class=Elementalist&item=The-Fulcrum&skill=Static-Strike

but can't find any random video/explanation of quite what they're doing (reverse chill shenanigans, at least).

Slams are vastly superior.

Well, that depends very much on what you are trying to achieve. Yes, slams are vastly superior in terms of power. However, strike skills can be very fun. I'm even thinking about playing another one next league. But that's solo. I can't reall imagine one of the skills being fun in party play in the current state of the game...

How many buttons do you think a new player should be using in their build would be my only reservation. Depends on the friend I would say, but in general I'd think Slam is too complicated for a starting build.

As I said is pretty good wow player. Think he is normally in top guild in server and one of top three dps in the guild. So I am sure he wants to press more than one button as that would be to boring. To be honest he is much more skilled than me, as I am more casual player for a long time. Just he really prefer melee style of play.

QoL expansion! Did not think they'd do such a large pass on former leagues; so many things people have suggested for ages (using Offerings To The Goddess to spawn a random trial, choice of enchants - no longer bricking your EE from an unknown boot enchant! etc).

What's the best way to level an Inquisitor these days - Stormblast Mine/OoS, Armageddon Brand/Cremation, some sort of lightning or cold Spellslinger setup, Storm Brand?

Armaggedon Brand has been very popular lately in streams for leveling, but I think they are used mainly by witches and focussing on ignite instead of hit.

For inquisitors maybe storm brand is better, but I'm not sure.

I like the QoL improvement for the old content in Ultimatum. Combined with the atlas passives from previous league it will be interesting.

For anything Templar leveling, check out Quantrik's twitch channel.

He uses Armageddon Brand, Wave of Conviction and Cremation. Arma Brand mostly for clear, Cremation for the big boss damage.

Also agree lots of things in the announcement sound fantastic, old leagues needed some reworks badly.

I leveled my DD Inquis using precisely what HolydaKing described and it was a very chill and quick experience.

Are you thinking about the Assassin crit node?

Would agree on the arma / cremation for later.
If you, like me, suck at using mines earlygame, you can also just use any self-cast spell of your choice together with holy flame totem and frostbomb or oos until then.
Bosses will be a bit slower with "random spell you like" compared to well executed stormblast mine, but holy flame totem on a 3L seriously farms. Frostbomb i use mainly for onslaught while running around.

And unless you try to be one of those "to maps in 3:30 and play the first 20 hours" dudes, i dont see losing like... 3-4 minutes at most vs act 1+2 bosses as a dramatic disadvantage.
