ALC0LITE: My favourite videos.

Don't mind at all if you make a few of these data scrape and analysis videos

vekialol: No way Whispers of Infinity survives 3.27, either it will become a 2% drop rate and therefore 50-60d week 1 or they'll add some crazy downside that will kill it. Looking at you Eternal Damnation amulet.

LilLillyFox: Feeling really smug that I named the FROSS character I rerolled into a couple days into the league "AheadOfMeta"

Jsharpeone: I think the Mercs are doing a lot of heavy lifting for build diversity. Being able to juice up Grace on a merc in addition to defensive uniques like Kaom's binding opens up so many options on my elementalist. Likewise the soul-eater ring makes casting feel great (OP) to play. Without these I am not sure what caster will look like next league if there are no major defensive changes.

Ezo772: Not that it would be Meta defining currently, but I feel that Azadi Crest is by far the most overlooked powerful new Item. Its basically Svalinn on Steroids for any Duellist. You need 10% more block investment and 2 jewel sockets (if-non Gladiator) but end up with ~99% Block Rate instead of Svalinns ~90% (Averages) and potentially other buffed lucky mechanics (Toe merc). Its of couse Preference as Svalinn is arguably good enough for hit mitigation already, and for less investment, yet a 10x reduction in getting hit is just crazy. Currently the forbidden Jewels have spiked in price which is a shame, but the setup was cheaper than Svalinn for quite some time (maybe good to keep in Mind for next league).

nofiox31: nice thumbnail sirgog

bawzzzz: I love these videos, thanks. Slides are dope.

ntzbit: They nerfed Assassin because people were using it for Poison builds, and now look at it..... Great job GGG.

lifeloverNorris: It's ironic that the overall most popular build of the league (FROSS) doesn't even take advantage of doryani prototype merc.

WarrenSheaffer-g7p: I didn't know badger worked for GGG, I forgot about him, good for him thats awesome

edwardtan7283: Sublime vision was used more likely because alot of builds can offload their aura to the mercs now.

m1xxx3r: There's nothing more POE than spreadsheets and stats

risenone7189: The Dark Seer used more this league because there is aurabot for mercs type of build, simple as that

Wrongusername2: You can easily disambiguate CWS from RF lol. Cws is using bloodnotch immutable valyrium or skyforth agnostic or EB you know actual cws gems.

Avel_runner: Love these videos, well done! Also, so fucking happy for Badger, did not know he was working for GGG!

kyleevans1129: Just a heads up, cws builds and probably even regular rf builds generally use a 6l helmet with rf in it, unsure if this shows up as a 6l on Poe ninja or not, but just so you’re aware for your statistics

slayer2450: I recommend a Chains of Command build, easy to start and easy to play and easy to scale.

CyclonDefinitiv: can recommend joining bpl! 10/10 awesome event with awesome people

ATST990: Sirgog you saved my new build. I heard your comment on hex support and sure enough mine was too high for golem poison elementalist, frost blink of wintery blast too. I missed this on the POB which the creator had right.

Heard you and thought to check the POB again. Dps and speed way way up! Luckily I just finished the build last night so wasn’t running scuffed too long.

I always learn something new watching your videos! Ty sir!

thatbrentguy9531: I've played zenith from beach twice now, I did not leaguestart it, (although imo it would still be pretty comfy) and its a amazing. You grab any efficient attack speed, leech / and maybe life tap skill and just play elemental reaver , just a couple hundred strength from tree and you're already looking at big damage ramp from crown of eyes / iron fortress with iron will keystone, from there maybe you pick up a rakiatas when its cheap/ affordable and your are smashing things, you can get a two mod watchers life on hit vit for a couple div and you're almost set to run all map mods.

Then you're looking at alberons and can make a multimod chaos sword for under 6 divs and you're really in the damage then, and it just keeps getting better from there. yeah theres mirror tier lethal prides and what not but you can get really good ones for a handful of div if your watching for a couple seeds. it only starts getting really expensive when you're looking at wanting mageblood, nimis, emperors mastery, and ofc purity of fire and other mirror tier items, but by the time you're looking at mirror tier items, you're already looking at hundreds of millions of dps and you're a tank.

TheExplodingCore: Considering Mark said 3.26 was focused on content and next league will bring the balance updates, the balance is in a pretty good spot now. At least ascendancy wise.

diemfpv: I love that inqis not meta this league:) spellblade coc lancing ice spear merc doryani 100% crit is crushing the whole content :D

akiwi2562: Ty sir

chidori0117: Is the power stacker Soul sacrifice really mroe common than the poison variant? I mean I play power stacker but almost all people I looked at were doing the poison version ... then again I havent looked at the full data so might be. Also in Regards to VFS ... its a good early build but the attack speed never gets really fast unles you invest heavy and it just becomes annoying to play at some point (like most slam builds) when you cant get your damage out cause you are not tanky enough to facetank.

TheFrankHorringan: Sirgog, do you think mercs helping through the campaign helped create different/diverse toons? It did at least for me

cap_gusto: Is that ai art?

Nazula236: Great content as always, and fantastic format! The amount of effort and detail that goes into these videos is truly noticeable and greatly appreciated
