At least 1 source of ele (non fire) dmg on gear to proc EE, and rare boots if you are in dire need of life/resists also I would take RT until you have that 1k accuracy node which is retarded btw, and makes it so you need no acc on gear (or like, 1 roll on ring or helmet)

I went berserker on my dude if you care, I probably spent <1.5 ex on it as far as actual currency though with most of that going to the amulet and axe, so there's certainly room for improvement.

There any strong builds that use well rolled rare weapons these days besides people crafting vagan daggers and +3 skill raging spirit staves? every build seems to be unique weapons, which I'm fine with, not having to worry about a 0.1% drop or 50 exalt to jump your damage up.

Jumping into Breach for the first time after taking a break since whatever the league before Essence was. Gonna try Pathfinder EA as my first character. Should I consider Juggernaut instead for a first go? Also, could I get a guild invite if spots are there. Char name CountTheSheep

How did it feel sans the carcass jack? Or if I were to roll the cyclone in a 5 link? I already have the amulet so I'd only need to buy the axe and I don't think i want to dump currency on a 6link unique chest that is going to be really expensive.

Might be more budget for me to just try and find a 6link chest with 90 or so health then. I think belly is roughly equivalent to a 110/110 hp chest, obviously depending on modifiers.

Diablo 3 is far better at co-op play then this game is in its current state.

Don't even get me started on party play with an old computer.  To give PoE due credit though, the party gameplay still is fun and fluid, despite its inconveniences, and the lack of motivation for groups larger than 2.

khy posted:So I picked up the game the other day and sat down to play it tonight. I've heard it compared a LOT (And I mean constantly) to Diablo 2, which I loved tremendously because the Necromancer was awesome, so I'm going to be comparing it to Diablo 2 in this post. You can't "see how the skill gems work" without even knowing that gems will never outlevel you. The skill tree being accessible by only certain classes is like saying only sorceresses should be able to use teleport in d2. Completely moot point. More variety and diversity in builds is more interesting, flat out

cinci zoo sniper posted:Don't even get me started on party play with an old computer. I hope they give a bit more incentive to do party play because grouping just feels like way more effort then diablo. And a lot of builds can suffer from party play or just be a hindrance. I'd like to try running an aura/curser bot sometime but don't like that the other person/people would rely on me. And if they aren't around I'd have to pug to level and people can be idiots in maps(running off every direction except the one you're going). If united dream isn't terrible to get in the next content patch I might try that SRS auramancer build I saw. Buffs the poo poo out of your party and you can solo just fine as well. As for the performance part, I am not sure I'd have to check but yes I use dx11 on a i7 2600k oc'd to 4.2ghz with a 1070 running 1440 resolution.

yeah, it's cool that you can use a "build" like Spectral Throw HoWA and make it work in 6 of the 7 classes Marauder? Zerker (or Crit Juggernaut if you're rich) Templar? Crit Inquisitor Witch? Elementalist Shadow? Assassin Ranger? Raider Duelist? Ok pass Scion? Crit rear end Slayer (expensive jewels edition) I mean sure some are easier to gear than others, but the idea is cool imo.

I've been enjoying the scorching ray CWC WI build a ton. It's tanky and does reliable damage. I was doing Uber lab runs yesterday and was able to facetank both Argus and Izaro.

Holyshoot posted:Enjoy your time in PoE as it is the far superior game I kind of agree with this. Why is that? I always find myself playing solo while my friends are also online playing solo. We have rarely hopped in games with each other this league unless we were leveling or to get certain maps completed on the atlas (or to share the masters dailies). I don't not like playing in parties...it just seems to happen infrequently.

I feel its because, on top of there not really being any incentive to party play and the performance issues, the game is just designed around one character plowing through hoards really fast. So you throw a few people in a map and its the guy with the fastest build out in front and everyone else playing catch up. I think its also why the most optimal party play is just two people with one being a full on support to make the other's already fast and good build even crazier. That said, I think its pretty fun to play with like 1 or 2 friends assuming they aren't playing particularly laggy builds.

Like lol if you play vaal spark and your good friend plays malhori EQ. It would never work. And why would I want to clear slower when I can clear quicker and I get all the loot as well. Until there's an incentive it's just far worse unless you're doing aura/curse bitch and pure DPS dude duo. Back in the day however partying was more of a thing iirc. Especially since maps were more expensive as was everything in general. So you'd have everyone contribute 2-3 chaos for a map and then all run it together. Are strand/gorge parties still a thing? I remember that being super good exp before atlas came out(2.2 & 2.3). Or did they pretty much null it since getting the map you want is easy as gently caress now?

StashAugustine posted:Itd be cool if they made group specific content but idk how you'd balance that at all I think the games too complex to make incentivized beyond specific setups. Also its safer to make solo play better versus group play. Anyone can play solo, not everyone can find a group or wants to. Diablo fixed it by making exp gains way higher in a group which also allowed you to get further in greater rits. However they had to go back and nerf content when you were solo because at the time it was dumb to play alone. Grouping was far far superior. Now you're missing out on a bit of exp/hr not grouping but not by much and you can get within 10-15 levels of a group grift level solo.
