What Leagues you gonna play in Legacy?

Perandus, Breach and I am waffling over Nemesis or Beyond (I am leaning towards Nemesis)

Breach/Beyond is a no-brainer and then invasion!

The obvious choice for me is

Nemesis: Gotta get that headhunter ASAP so I can actually do a build with it instead of having to grind out 100 ex or getting lucky while in a Zana modded map.

Rampage: For the Rampage since I'll be using Facebreaker and can't get Rampage.

And the either

Beach: Because I need "The Surrender" for my planned build

or

Essence: For crafting

or if they include it, Darkshrine.

Hard to say.

I've only played Perandus and breach really, so i'll probably pick up essence and invasion (the rogue exile one?) when i start to make early game easy then move to something else later in maps.

I really struggled with the Perandus mobs early on, so although i like CadiroBro i might skip his league initially. Breach on the other hand was quite easy to deal with early on.

The idea of having a socketed Amulet is quite appealing, so maybe talisman but then i might just leave that to other people to farm one for me.

Can you run hardcore leagues as SC? If so

Breach Nemesis and Beyond


Breach and Beyond seems like a nobrainer for massive loot and EXP.

Third can be rampage to embrace to clear speed meta, Perandus even more loots and exp, but I want a HH so Nemesis.

Going SSF:

* Essence - the closest to direct crafting aside from masters, in the game. Good for getting at least one stat rolled as exactly what you want on your early gear.

* Ambush - boxes can be full of nice stuff (hope my laptop can survive the monster spawnings.

* Perandus - possibly my favorite league because I finally acquired that one ring that prevents being frozen... (yeah, not amazing to most people, but it doesn't take much to make me happy) and saw a bunch of uniques that I'd almost never otherwise see.

Will use if found/for change of pace:
Talisman (should be in the core game)
Anarchy (random Vorici kill-exile missions)
Domination (shrines have some neat effects and extra packs of enemies)
Rampage (doesn't hurt, anyway)
Prophesy (meh... the good ones were too rare during the league when I actually played it)
Bloodlines/Nemesis (why not)
Invasion (why not)
Torment (occasionally ok loot explosions if you can maneuver the horrible ai)

Won't touch:
Beyond (wouldn't touch with a ten-foot pole)
Breach (meh, not my style)
Tempest (can't just idle if you have real life spring up and drag your attention away for a moment - you might come back dead, just from the tempests)
Onslaught (nothing special)
Warbands (league-specific items didn't catch my eye)


Edit: Meh, probably won't play after all... thinking about the Labyrinth is sucking the fun out of the possibilities. Maybe if the League-stones carry over into Standard, I'd farm for them to have as future options.

Edit2: Randomly dropped limited-usage league-stones... blech. Totally lost interest. Ancient Legacy Shinies not drawing me in. If this makes it to the core game, replacing the stupid Zana mods, then yeah, I'd eventually farm up the leagues I want to play, and vendor the rest, and play to my heart's content. Temp league that will be broken up by a beta, for a SSF who rarely gets anything of worth out of a temp league except challenge-based reward MTX that do nothing special? So not interested.

Why use a ring slot for what a mod on flask will do? Dream fragments went from 2ex to 1alc after this heat mod was introduced.

Because I use all of my flasks for life/mana - sometimes hybrid life/mana, and whatever bonuses I can get attached to them (like anti-bleed, anti-curse, etc)

Never liked the whole leech thing, or life-gain on hit. I'd rather have my life regen on its own and supplement with flasks.

Personal preference I guess.

I hate all the "utility flasks" that I can't use because of it, but thems the breaks.

I am thinking about doing Talisman, Perandus, Nemesis

I dont know exactly how it will work yet, but probably Perandus, Nemesis and either Breach or Beyond, for SSF HC.

HC with Breach / Beyond? Well at least this will be kinda of intense? :P

as a starter and assuming softcore your best bet is actually probably to go with breach , domination and probably perandus


all of those offer huge exp boosts but are also predictable where as things like invasion or beyond will kind of just show up and rape your face (not good for leveling)

i would then say a good transition would be into breach beyond onslaught or just have a rotation as it tickles your fancy


actually essence would be be a decent opener over perandus simply because of the free alchemy orbs that represent essences..

yeah breach domination essence is a solid opener



i wonder if ggg is going to keep this rotating league as a mechanic for standard when 3.0 hits

Onslaugt is just dumb honestly. It's just a buff you can easily get without it. Domination? How many Srines it adds per map? What's the difference between Domination and Darkshrines?

Of course it won't be rolled into Core Game. Becaise it's just insane, extremely fun and rewarding (also it's meant to celebrate old Path of Exile). And GGG just can't allow Standard Flipppers to become poor as fuck, because Cadiro sells Mirrors left and right for 20000 coins lol. :P

Essence? It does not makes any sense actually, because the spawn rate of essences in maps is pretty good already.

Spawn rate of Essences in maps is pretty meh now. It's not like with Prohpecie - silver coins are still drop in abundance, but Essences are pretty rare. Specially good ones that can be corrupted into expensive ones.

1. Nemesis
2. Anarcy
3. Rampage

Rampage? It's just a mod from Gloves. You sacrifice so much for that...after you get Headhunter, there is kinda of no point to play Nemesis? Taming and it's crafting components are gonna become cheap af anyway and Headhunter is top tier rarity drop anyway...so you wll get it from Cadiro or someone who bought it from Cadiro anyway...
