ED/Contagion or Mines for me I think.
If someone has a cool caster league start suggestion I'd be all ears though. I do feel like this league has pretty harsh requirements on decent builds though. Some things like BV felt like they got carried hard by explody chests.
Farming stuff like A9 on ED would be miserable still I presume? What kinda mines are hot these days? I don't know if it got nerfed or changed, but typically you would do Chaos Slinger (ED + friends) and it's super duper fast. It takes a lot of inventory micro though, due to all the socket pressure yeah, when i played ed/cont trickster last time (in harvest), i used spellslinger until maybe t8-t10 maps. the damage felt kinda meh by then, missing malevolence and stuff. After the switch and some gearing up, i had contagion on 4L, ED in 5L essence crafted gloves, and blight as a 6L for single target. Pushing ED damage and contagion aoe felt best. Gotta get enough damage on ED that one ED kills at least any rare mob in a legion, and everything is fine. It was also (with an OG glancing blows, but still) the easiest and safest a8 sirus killer i ever played. not the fastest, but for sure the safest. That "sirus throws balls at you between 2 walls" phase was pretty much "stand there, free damage".
SCREW IT TIME FOR ED BUILD #247
Standard ED / Blight / Contagion to 24, then multiple Spellslinger links with ED / Contagion / Soulrend ... presumably with dmg links on ED?

Btw.: How do you make PoB show the total dps in the bottom left? My own PoBs never do that. Not that it matters much but I would still like to know. There's a new 'Include in Full DPS' option on the Skills pane; a checkbox to the right of the 'Socketed In' / 'Enabled' bit above the gem links.
Thank you, you're welcome!  Not sure about Petrified Blood. On paper I'm not a fan of this low life mechanic. It basically gives you 1/6 less life vs hits and a whole bunch of dereg without the benefit of having more auras. I wait for people to try it out but it sounds like a lot of corpse-dragging to me.
And thanks, found it!

That's cheating, I think a perma-ban is warranted.

Same.. was at 1.6k queue, managed to join after like 8 minutes. Got to lower Prison -> went town -> disconnect -> 102k ahead of you. YIKES.

I'm suprised anybody actually made it into the game at all.
GGG Forum post:
Extremely Slow Queue Processing
When the Ultimatum league started this morning, it was immediately apparent that the login queue was moving quite slowly. We are investigating this, and so far it appears that the reason is that this league's character migrations (which are a process that runs when a character logs in, to convert it to the new internal version) are much slower than normal.
Users are getting in and the game is stable once they are through the queue, but it's going to take a while for the queue to clear and we're very sorry about that. We're acutely aware that a similar problem occurred last league launch and we thought we had resolved it.
Queue processing should speed up as more characters are converted, and we are trying to find other solutions that will help in the meantime.
Once again, we're very sorry about the delayed start to the league for most users. We will make sure that this never happens again.
We will update this thread as more information is known!
EDIT: We have a plan! This may result in people not having past league progress in Standard until we can catch up with that, but should massively speed up the queue for people logging in to Ultimatum (which is 99% of users right now). Will keep you updated.

I still have the "the servers are not yet online" over my queue. I think i went from 43K to ~36K queue in around 30 minutes
|
Same here, went only from ~75k to 65k in 30 some minutes
|
Could become the worst league launch ever. It's on a good way.
I think that guy on reddit is actually right if this doesn't speed up dramatically anytime soon:
"GGG you guys need to restart the league. Its not fair. some ppl are in act3 already. Some ppl will be in maps before others are going to start. This will make some players extremely rich while the rest of us not so much.
You got to restart the league."

DON'T PUT THINGS IN GUILD STASH

Probably just coincidence, doing anything in town seeems to be risky atm.

a queue that is barely progressing and streamers getting priority queue skips live on stream. Wouldn't be a new PoE league without a clusterfuck happening somewhere along the way.
Glad I decided not to play at launch this time.

feels like it's picking up
|
I got disconnected just as I entered act 2 town, I better not get rolled back to before merveil lul

yeah lucky you managed to do so after the queue got fixed. ^^ still taking quite a bit of time... i'm still at 62k.

ahaha..... "an unexpected disconnect happened" at 45k in queue. :D
160k here we go. and it's not moving anymore.
and now from 160k to 0 in 5 minutes, OK.

Yeah, I don't think they are going to restart and screw the progress (however little it may be) from 99% of the player base that doesn't care about this.

Yeah they won't, but I'm not sure 99% of the player base even got in when you posted this, maybe 50% at best.
Now I think everyone got in, but I''m crashing like every 10 secs when I go to town, even had 3 instant crashs when logging in.
