If you trade and make a top tier build you can easily breeze through everything. This game isn’t 100% about player skill, it’s mostly about your build and gear.
I remember when I made a build I found to appear fun the first time and it worked really slow.
I don’t remember if it was someone like Robert in this thread or someone else that made a comment about that I was just lacking skill in PoE so back then I just said f it and made a top tier build and got from level 1 to 70 in one day so easily with just brain dead point and click no effort at all and then the game got dead boring and I quit.
I actually had the same consideration as @Manx for this league since I recently started again. I can go top tier and just trade my chaos orbs and gear up but I won’t do that.
This is a game and I actually find it fun to find my own gear and gradually level up.
Games where people just bot/dupe usually force devs to nerf drop rates and make games seem like a struggle for players that refuse to enter the bot/dupe market but the current buffs in the new league make it more worth while for legit players and more casual players to be able to play and enjoy the game. Though I can imagine that people who bot/dupe and made a fortune in the past off RMT/d2jsp are probably furious right now.
lol i face tanked Dominus (his electric people only took me down to 75%), but one of those powerful minions killed me in 2 hits. now i’m getting my poop pushed in on Act 4 bosses
sonicabid consistently showing me how bad i am at character creation. they aren’t even glass cannons he hooked me up with some rings and an amulet that increased my DPS by 2k
finally got a unique bow. Cadiro cleaned me out for an Infractem Decimation. someone donate about 300,000 jewller’s orbs to turn this 1 socket into a 6…
Flash Fact: Infractem is an anagram of Minecraft. GGG named this bow after it because Notch donated a bunch of money to them.
fool, i’m watching Billions right now! imma be on in 20 minutes! :mad:
@NastyManx@Sonicabid
i keep trying to join the ElderGods guild but it says my character is already in a guild and won’t let me. i guess i’ll figure it out in a second.
lol i’m lvl 68 getting blown up in Cruel’s labyrinth. Infractem Bow is ok. with my power/frenzy charges i can pull around 6k dps. i’m about to play a bit before Game of Thrones. see me in deez streetz.
I will take a day off from work next week to play this game, what’s a good cookie cutter build to get to end game fast so I can farm the gear to make whatever I want to make.
It’s been slim pickin for gear. I’ve had to buy all of mine since I can’t get a decent drop of the right kind and I always see nice spell crit daggers drop when I’m not leveling a witch. :mad: It doesn’t though. I found a Bino’s that almost perfect since I don’t need to worry about the damage roll and it’s hella cheap.
Finally gave up on d3, can’t endure to stare at walls any longer and tried PoE for pretty much the first time since closed beta.
Last time I played it I got dizzy and a headache from it, don’t know why. I blame the camera or some shit.
Thought it’d be harder to get into the whole system and I do enjoy it quite a bit so far.
Only casually leveled to 50 right now, running a totem Scion build.
Gud game, but screw the labyrinth.
