I currently play a rarity culler on 2. I’ve never played poe1 so i’m interested on if there’s something similar that i could play? all my friends talk about how it’s possible and 1 is better than 2. i want to give it a try. could someone help me out? maybe send a ninja link so i can look at what id need to do to support my friends? thanks!

Need some advices
Hello guys, little update !
I’ve started to play PoE… I have to admit that game looks really really cool
BUT : i have few questions lmao
I’ve started to play with a character that looks fun for ME, and later i’ll play a « meta » character
I try to learn how gems work, but it’s hard for me tbh. I understood that there are « spell » gems and « support » gems but is it absolutely necessary that on the equipment these two gems are « linked »? Because if I loot more powerful equipment than the one I currently have, but the colors and/or links do not match, then my equipment is useless?
Second question: I am currently in act 2 of the campaign, I am trying to take my time. But what next? Does the character evolve in the campaign indefinitely or there are other places?

FPS issues are strange in PoE.
I can run AAA games at 4K on medium to high settings and usually get around 40 to 45 FPS. But in PoE, no matter what I tweak, resolution, renderer, or config settings, my FPS tanks hard during mapping. Once the waves ramp up and the mob density gets high, it just becomes unplayable, and I cannot even finish the league.
The weird part is that PoE 2 actually runs better for me.
Can you actually maintain 60fps in a high juiced map?

Late league build
What builds are you guys rocking? I feel like this is the time of the league where the players left are enjoying the game a lot and I presume one of the reasons is their build.
Soo if you are still activelly playing, what build is it?
I'd love to play some chill build on my second monitor :D

Farm strat
Hello I’m returning to Poe 1 and I’m playing a bleed gladiator feels kinda close range for clear so I was wondering what is a reliable farm I can do as this build? I tried breach fortress and it’s impossible for my build so I can’t farm it

2000 Scouting Report Rerolls- Data Summary
I bought 2000 explorer scouting reports, clicked them all, and recorded the data to share with anyone interested.
[Here is a link to a screenshot of the data.](https://imgur.com/0BDsWVn) (Note: the value of items in theis spreadsheet is not as accurate as the data in the post).
Strategy:
Reroll Kirac missions with scouting reports until you see [this](https://imgur.com/DxWYPs7) beast mission or [this](https://imgur.com/RBXFfci) harvest mission. If you get both in the same reroll (like in the screenshots) I recommend running the beast mission.
If Harvest- rush to harvest, do the 5 plots, leave.
If beast- capture the beasts.
It's pretty simple.
Results: (converted to current CE prices, 12/27/2025 2:30PM EST, may vary from the screenshot).
Investment:
* 2000 explorer scouting reports \~26d (current prices, I bought for 20d slowly over time)
Returns:
* 32d in yellow juice
* 13d in blue juice
* 9d in red juice
* 15d Wild bristle matrons
* 51d vivid vultures
* 17d vivid watchers
* 3d wild hellion alphas
* 2d wild bramblebacks
* 3d in sacred blossoms
* 7d in yellow beasts
Beast Maps run: 87
Beast Returns: 90d
Beast Return/map: 1.04 div per map
(3 minute average map) **Beast only div/hour: 20.7 div per hour (revenue only)**
Harvest Maps run: 86
Harvest Returns: 57d
Harvest Return/map: .66 div per map
(3 minute average map) **Harvest only div/hour: 13.25 div per hour (revenue only)**
Total Profit: 132 div
Time taken (3 minute average map): 8.65 hours (round to 9 for inventory management)
**Div/hour: 14.67 div per hour**
Pros:
* No atlas tree required
* Simple to do/set up
* Great way to farm beasts/juice for SSF
Cons:
* Build must be able to handle almost any map affix
* Decent amount of clicking (rerolls and picking up juice)
* Beast management (use a regex for filtering, fill up inventory with scrolls before dumping bad beasts)
Overall takeway: Mid farm, not bad, not great. In the future I'll probably use my own scouting reports, but I won't buy any for rerolls. Probably a better farm when bristle matrons and hellion alphas have more value. If focusing on div/hour only do kirac.

KeepingItSortaGucci Private League
Since the dream of a Phrecia holiday league is more than dead, I decided I wanted a private league to kill some time now that the family portion of the holidays are over. I figured we would go with a different set up just to keep things interesting and settled on a (mostly) Gucci set up. For those unfamiliar, a Gucci league is one where you have UNIQUE ITEMS ONLY(mostly). It's a minor challenge set up to test what you can come up with based on the items the game decides to bless you(or maybe someone else) with.
https://www.pathofexile.com/private-leagues/league/KeepingItSortaGucci
That said, I figured folks would be more likely to wanna give it a shot with some less restrictive "rules", so the league set up as I see it in my head is this.
- The only added modifier on league creation is "No magic or rare items drop"
- As stated you have to use uniques in all slots, but we're going to add a couple of exceptions. Most importantly will be you can use ONE rare weapon or gear item. Use it because you need a mod, for damage, for easier links, movespeed, whatever you want. But know that people will respect you more if you don't
- You can use magic items. If you wanna look poor and sacrifice by wearing a blue items, you can. This also solves a couple of other issues, as you get full access to flasks, and at least partial access to jewels and cluster jewels. I know some leagues have done clusters can be full rares and others don't, so this splits the middle there.
- Edited note: someone brought up Grafts to me, and how them being yellow would potentially be good for the economy of generating more blood for more foulborn uniques, so rare Grafts are on the menu with no restrictions.
I don't have much else to say set up wise. It'll start later tonight, roughly three hours from posting. Anyone who wants even more respect from strangers on the internet can use this randomizer wheel to pick their class for them https://wheelofnames.com/zvf-yrw . One step above that would be to pick a skill that falls under 1% usage on PoENinja.
The league is funded for 30 players+20 days to start, if it looks like we need more we will open it up. Created a discord if people wanna use it to organize what they want others to keep an eye out for https://discord.gg/3qu99Tu5 . And then lets go with Global 1967 for chat. If folks want any adjustments to the ruleset we can chat about it here, or on discord, or just play it and mostly follow it since you're an adult playing a video game.

Path of Exile
KeepingItSortaGucci (PL77719) - Path of Exile
Path of Exile is a free online-only action RPG under development by Grinding Gear Games in New Zealand.
Just how rare is Mageblood?
When I first started playing PoE however many years ago, I had no idea what I was doing and I heard people talk about uniques and just didn't really think about them. I heard a lot of buzz about Mageblood but never really thought it sounded very good. As I learned the game more I understood just how ridiculous it is, but how rare exactly is it?
I've never been rich enough to afford it in a league (and combining all my leagues so far, still not rich enough to buy it off-league) but just as a game loop stand-point, is it worth trying to get it to drop or is it better to do something that makes me money (even if it's slowly) and repeat ad infinitum until I can afford it. I'm still not exactly the best at this game skill wise, or knowledge wise but I can make anywhere from 20-40 chaos per map with harvests, essences and incursions and such.
Is it worth doing activities like getting the Apex of Ascension in temples or getting ancient wombgifts with belt specialising to aim for the mageblood drop? Or should I just earn the 30 or so chaos per map for the 600 something maps until I can afford it? People with magebloods, how did you get your first? And just how much difference did it make to your gameplay (if you use it, and if you don't, why not?).

Improving/Optimizing PhysDoT Herald Elementalist
https://poe.ninja/poe1/pob/853a0
Looking for ways to improve this build for potentially handling Ubers and finishing out challenges efficiently.
Current upgrades that are pricey but in-mind:
Getting FF jewel combos and swapping to Lycia Herald node
Mirrored Life/Gem Level/Ailment amulet (Using Ashes because I missed the last attempt)
Getting 3 great node Megalomaniac Jewels
Are there any other suggestions for improving this beyond what I have? Am I missing anything obvious?
