Couldn't you potentially dos omtehing retarded like portal out, go to a low level instance somewhere and wipe it in like 2 minutes flat with whatever you build souls with, then come back.

Nah souls are per area because of that probably

gently caress daresso and his stupid loving map, sure put me in a tiny arena jam packed with assholes, this is perfect for my ranged character why not. Then when you die you port back and it puts you slap bang in the middle of the assholes, good luck. gently caress this map so hard.

So... 20 exalts seemed like a fortune, but now that I'm looking into trying to buy my way to the remaining challenges (the harder/expensive ones), it looks like its less than I expected. Chains that bind go for 30c?!? Ugh.

Debating if I even want to try for 28 or just hit 21 and call it a day.

How hard is the 2 ghosts challenge to get? Haven't had it happen randomly, figured there might be ways to line it up to happen but would love hints from anyone that's pulled it off.

Price probably goes up because people like you want those items¨

edit i remember some previous league someone had to pay like 2ex for an unid blackheart or whatever

Interesting. That makes farming specific legendaries definitely easier. Still not a way to get legacy items sadly.

I might actually give this game another chance.

Any good witch summoner builds out there? I think I am around lvl 80 or so.

Currious, per here: http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Quecholli has worse stats than Wideswing.
And it did not match mine (mine has max. Damage 150) I assumed gamepedia shows only base damage and the % still needs to be factored in.

But then I looked at poe.trade and saw Wideswing with less Damage than Quecholli... Confused. Gamepedia has an wrong data entry?
Quecholli can be used from 22 onward, and with 48 I did not find an replacement yet...
So the point is, more of an early weapon item you can use very long.

Buzzsaw has been "back" ever since it left, really. I say that having played it every single patch since the term was coined.

so do you agree raider is the way to go then sensei

TheRat posted:

I do. My preferred option is Raider with Avatar of Chase + Way of the poacher. LL Inquisitor is also very solid, as is pathfinder with Master surgeon + veteran bowyer. For HC, champion is also an obvious choice.

E: Messed around with the skilltree for a few minutes, and I think this would be my ideal setup http://poeurl.com/BwW - Crit sword ST with a Vaal Rapier or Jewelled Foil.

Seems like a bit much to get speed, ele dmg and crit on a sword

Got tired of D3 and D2, so I'm playing PoE for technically the first time since last I played was only for a few hours and not even through Act 1.

As a first plathrough I'm running marauder and not really being too critical about my skill tree. Just finished Act 1, my experience is primarily positive, as I'm using 2H Cleave as my primary attack and oneshotting any non-uniques. Just a few questions overall:

I specced into life leech. Some of the trees says it increases my life leech per second. How does life leech work? Is it over time and not instant?

What's the difficulty spike I should worry about late game? In Diablo 2 it was getting resistances high and having mixed damage to deal with immunities. What's PoE's equivalent of this wall, if any?

get health and cap your resists, life leech is over time but theres a passive on the center right that makes it instant but removes regen.
