Goatface wanted a hand last night doing a lvl32 PoE so I jumped in to help out. Nobody else online so we 2-manned it. Cleared with no wipes in under 30 mins.

The difficulty in PoE is all over the place. The lvl28 matchmade is far, far too easy. The sweet spot is somewhere between 32 and (this weeks) 34 IMO.

Apparently an update is getting rolled out today.

Had a good attempt at trials, however not being 34 makes it a lot harder.

Got to two wins but the the 40% damage reduction and 40% extra vulnerability made it impossible.

Ended up doing a 32 PoE, and getting a chest plate.
Trials was on eye opener and you're right about the extra damage the 34's did to us, but to be fair I think we started to gel quite well as a team and if the levels had been the same I reckon we would have come out of it with a few more wins.

Skolas has Melee Damage Boost and that's it. Wonder if the raining Gjallahorn strategy will work again.

Nightfall is winters run with arc and solar. Heroic is omnigul

Round 3 is Cabal with catapult and ANGRY. That is going to hurt even before getting to Skolas.

Variks is selling the helmet - apparently all strength again! Glad I ascended my titans old vault helmet, intend to do the same for my warlock. Just going to use the amour and weapon cores to roll Judgments Chances in future, might end up with a decent armour roll, the weapons will just get dismantled.

Have you seen the titan one? It looks ridiculous! I predominantly stick with exotic helmets so it's not such an issue but I'd like to use alpha lupi on my hunter so might run a quick 32 PoE tonight.

The app had an error, Skolas is indeed void! Let the truths rain, also PvE and PvP justification for ascending Praedyth's Revenge too!

Should be on tonight, up for the usual "everything". I'm still only 32, so I suspect I'm limited to a 32 run at PoE.

Or a raid. Remember raids? smile

I refuse to buy a strength based helmet...but anyway, here is a good guide of how to do last weeks 34 which is this week's 32.

New 34 has a new mechanic but won't post spoilers.

Didn't get on last night in the end...Sorry. might be on tonight...

Can anyone find the iron banner? He's not in his place at the tower and I can't find it on multiplayer.

Silver bullet that's crap!

Just read the update for the patch. I'm impressed bungie are changing tho he so quickly. You can get 3 keys guaranteed per week, and they have upped their drop rates a lot. It sounds like they have put the drop rate higher on 28 Poe chests as opposed to the patrol ether chests.

They also let ammo stack to 100 and you can dismantle tokens for rep gain.

Small stuff but good to get sorted quickly.

Mine downloaded in about 40 secs, didn't look like a 2 gb update, I have a feeling it's downloaded the whole of the previous patches together again.

Just finishing now, it's the second so far in 4 days. I daren't unplug it and force a reboot for fear of bricking it. Oh well, 30 minutes of play is better than none I suppose.

A great game. I've got up to level 6. Not quite the rareified height of some of you. But, I'm slowly climbing the ladder. How do I get to join other PH players?

Ran a quick nightfall with Simmo and Gav. Picked up 'Truth'. smile
Getting one shorted by hobgoblins is a new experience.

Wasn't up for PoE 34 with them, so tried a 28 with some randoms. It kicked me out halfway through. frown

Did the weekly heroic, and cleared up a bunch of bounties. Still haven't braved iron banner.

Bilb; if you go back some (quite a few pages) there's a table with players names. Add them, and then you can see who is on and what they're doing. I have a warlock I keep threatening to use...
