qwedloki100 Posted July 27, 2009 Share Posted July 27, 2009 Some people seem to think if they click on the orb, it will automatically come to the altar regardless of obstacles -.- u didn't know orbs can move thru solid pillars and rocks?!?! omg :o Just kidding. :lol: :lol: I've seen someone repelling an orb at a rock pillar and wondering why it didn't go through :roll: (I think I took a screenie of it, it was hilarious). Some people are also under the impression that getting the orb close to the general location of the altar will make the altar automatically vaccuum the orb in. :-# Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir_Kurity Posted August 8, 2009 Share Posted August 8, 2009 Thatsss right... Repel it AWAY from altar... Genius. O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BioIce Posted August 16, 2009 Author Share Posted August 16, 2009 :) Thanks for the pictures Sir. I'm planning on merging some of the pathfinder section images with the rest. I'll probably have it done in a couple of days. Edit: I have attempted the merge. I also put up some more intermediate tricks in the pathfinder section. Prepare to Die!

Sir_Kurity Posted August 31, 2009 Share Posted August 31, 2009 Just wondering... Why is this in beginning guides? O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BioIce Posted September 1, 2009 Author Share Posted September 1, 2009 It was in beginning guides because I thought I shouldn't put it in General Guides, since most of the stuff in there is already finished. :? This is more or less nearly done. Prepare to Die! Path of Exile RPG "Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends."

sees_all1 Posted September 1, 2009 Share Posted September 1, 2009 Lol, probably. I just hope that I'm not in any of the pictures, being the fruitcake you're pointing out. Keep in mind I usually play in LD on a laptop with no mouse :oops: I wish your guide was mandatory reading for new players to GOP. 99 dungeoneering achieved, thanks to everyone that celebrated with me! ♪♪ Don't interrupt me as I struggle to complete this thoughtHave some respect for someone more forgetful than yourself ♪♪♪♪ And I'm not doneAnd I won't be till my head falls off ♪♪ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qwedloki100 Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 With the new update as of September 2,2009, half of those tricks and angles don't work anymore on certain altars and directions -.-. Orbs misclicks much more often. <-- is glad I played gop and did majority of Gop before the updates murdered it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BioIce Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 A quick picture for those regulars who are having some trouble with east. With thanks to Shy Yellow, Sad Hollow, Thor 313, and Xx Skilaxx for essence bombing the air altar since I couldn't make a good grid map. White dot is where you stand. Yellow dots are the key positions from previous lessons. Red dots are the locations of orb spawns. IMPORTANT NOTE: You only need to click once to score these orbs. You do not need to click the ground, click the altar, or break your control from the orb at all. Just click the orb once and let it do the rest. [hide=][/hide] ~ ~ ~ This is all because of what I'm going to call the Great Divide. The Great Divide is a line that runs right down the middle of the north and south arches. This line separates the new ways and the old ways. Orb spawns to the west require new techniques. The east spawns require the old techniques. Basically any orb west of the dividing line involve new ways. This is why, if you stood south, you have to do the new techniques to get western spawns, but are forced to do the old ways when spawns are eastern. [hide=][/hide] I'll incorporate this into the guide once I finish brushing up the rest. It will take me a while. Hope it helps those who are having trouble. The new techniques happened because the east-west orb movement, a fundamental of GoP, has become more emphasized as a rule than before. Prepare to Die!

Sir_Kurity Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 That looks confusing. Might go play GOP to try it out. I'm pretty sure its a bug or something. I don't see the point of the 2 halves of the altar being insanely different. O.O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cup Lion Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 For Portals from East Position. (0: open spaces; 1: pillars; 8: position to get orb specified; T: cardinal direction position) For orbs directly behind, one space, or two spaces behind... |_altar_| 0-T-0 8-0-0 1-0-1 For orbs four spaces behind... |_altar_| 8-T-0 0-0-0 1-0-1 I believe these positions work. I'm no good at pictures, which is why I am doing it like this. |Signature by Jason321| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BioIce Posted September 8, 2009 Author Share Posted September 8, 2009 Hai Qweddy, you got it right! :wall: Raw shots if you want a quick overview, I still have to fire up Gimp (eep, trouble loading it) and edit these with the Pathfinder legend, and there is another shot in particular I need to remember that's not included here: This one I'm not sure of as I can't remember if it's one more or one less spaces than that. All these shots can be mirrored for the northwestern spawns, and western spawns if you stood south. (The east spawns, if you stood south, require the old way in accordance to the Great Divide.) Most important thing is to hold until the orb is between the arches, and then you move back and score it. :ohnoes: Prepare to Die!

gatorade1993 Posted September 12, 2009 Share Posted September 12, 2009 ooo The Great Divide, hmm. That's a good way to think about it. To get the orbs on the west side just pretend that they are one space closer, works for me :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Youmu Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Very nice guide! This taught me the 4 directional spots in GOP, and has helped me improve my attracting skills. I'm using this method to get my goal of 6 talisman staffs (air obtained, 5 more to go!). I'm using 50/50, due to my fail internet lagging me out when playing GOP. <_< Will you also add information about the Repel wand later?

BioIce Posted October 15, 2009 Author Share Posted October 15, 2009 Hai Sonic! Erm, I dont think I have the time to add a basic repel section and its a bit more complicated since repel involves taps. Oh yesh, Mod Emilee said this in the forums concerning the strange new angles: "No, it's still in the hands of the Developer." QFC: 74-75-560-59517085 Which basically means theyre going to probably take as long as it took them to fix the air-mind auto win glitch. Which means we wont see anything solid done about it for months. Eep! Prepare to Die! Path of Exile RPG "Think where man's glory most begins and ends, and say my glory was I had such friends."

Since you only have to click once for the orbs to go in... And, at the very least, add a barrier section. I find that inbetween the pillars and right in front of spawn points the best place to put these.

Youmu Posted May 10, 2010 Share Posted May 10, 2010 Lulz, I don't really think this is a WIP anymore. I think that it's good for the General Guides now. It's very detailed, you explained all the good strategies (that I use), and you pointed out some interesting facts! :D BlogTrimmed | Master Quester | Final BossBoss pets: Bombi | Shrimpy | Ellie | Tz-Rek Jad | Karil the Bobbled | Mega Ducklings120s: Dungeoneering | Invention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
