How do i change my bandits quest choice? I have read this about
It, but still didnt understand: https://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/2122357/page/1#p15512027

Sell 20 Orbs of Regret and a Lapis Amulet to a vendor and they will give you a Book of Reform in return. Use the book to gain Alira's favor. I believe you will need to have 2 unassigned skill points to do this.
First time player here. Could someone explain to me why i should be using Lightning Warp as the movement spell? It just seems so incredibly slow compared to Flame Dash while at the same time requiring more sockets.

Thank you very much! :)
I am not loosing any mana anymore :D Exspecially with the Cinderswallow Flask and truly dont loose no mana, at all. It's so awesome, to feel strong again :D

I will train with the 4 Guardians now, again ;D
Last time i nearly killed the fourth Guardian, which was on a T16 map :o
Guess i will try to play some lower tier maps, so i dont have to struggle this hard again.

But i don't know how to lure the Elder into the middle in detail.
So, my question is:

The Ueber Elder, will be on one of the Lair, Forge, Pit, Maze Map in the middle of the Atlas? Or should i shape it differently? ^^
And: When does Shaper Influence appear? I have completed everything on my atlas now except all T15 and T16 maps.
+edit: god dammnit i can't kill the t16 Maze Boss ._.

Best regards, a satisfied PoE Player

Can't view entire skill tree on mobile will not allow me to move the tree around to see where things are going and are.

1. Vaal Arc is a nice idea, but lacks consistency in the longer fights where you'd actually need the extra damage. Still good for weaker bosses with no phases. As for shock effect, currently we can get ~30% from Arc, 45% from passives, 25% from Inpulsa's, 30% each on amulet & boots, 20% from helmet and have 6 sockets (assuming Stygian Vise and Watcher's Eye is used) for Abyss Jewels with 10% each. So with full commitment it's still possible to cap, but as always there's the opportunity cost and when you're at this point of minmaxing you should calculate which option gives you more in the end, f.e. the jump from 49% to 50% shock is probably not as big as some extra crit multi, unless you can get both.

2. Elemental Overload was teased to get nerfed, didn't happen this patch but it will eventually. Crit feels a bit lacking during the transition phase from Acts to Maps, but once you're past that it just feels better and more consistent, and the gearing is also not that much worse thanks to the Crafting Bench. It also has the added benefit that we can easily shatter with some cold damage, I found the benchcraft is enough more trash mobs. Although with how cheap Inpulsa is now, that's not as relevant anymore.

About the other idea, it would just end up confusing people and take too much work, since those build options used different gem setups and items, and some of the nodes used were nerfed or straight up removed.

@Nicholas_Steel
Don't know how or why, but I didn't change anything in this regard.

@MrKest & tarrgoth
It gets much better once you have Less Duration for it. Flame Dash is slowed down through its use limit and cooldown, even with full investment it will be slower than LW with enchant in endgame.

@JeyHaze
You need to finish Zana's questline, then move Shaper Influence to a T15 map and run the Guardian T16 maps to spread influence. Once you're done, Elder Guardians appear on the T16s and Uber Elder is on Shaper's Realm, and as always you need to kill the Guardians first.

@lacc
Yes, and that's mentioned multiple times in the guide.

@Nightfrizen1
THat's an issue with GGG's site and nothing that I could fix. You could try Path of Building, maybe that will work.

Just any maps that you like. It's something where I don't wanna set any restrictions.

I wonder if kikazaru poe good to have or not
Currently there are only example levels for the CwDt + IC gems so I was wondering if I'm correct to assume we should level them as high as compatibly possible or not?

Previously the target levels were stated in a fixed format and were kept relatively low (if I'm remembering it right) to incite more procs. Sorry in advance if this has been answered from last season or in the comments; I'm bad at finding pertinent comments in forums.


PS. Thanks Enki and other helpful AF community members.

I'd still be playing a "low-HP-without-any-passives-gear-etc-required-for-low-HP-builds" "frost witch" I tried making at first without the incredible wealth of information the community acquires and then shares in a format digestible to noobs, so thanks again everyone.
