Yes there is a TL guild. If you post a character name and ask I'm sure an officer will invite you.
The passive tree is pretty comprehensively reworked since beta, and most of the systems have had their numbers tweaked (life/mana gains per level, armor calculations, aura reservations, etc) but conceptually the game is still pretty similar. There's a decent amount of new content that you won't have seen either.

Ascendancy class reveals are their bargaining chip with sites like gameinformer etc. More reveals will hit the press when GGG wants people who don't play PoE to know that PoE is launching a new expansion. I'd guess about 2 weeks pre-expansion so we have a while to wait.
tbh i have no idea why GGG revealed so much of ascendancy already but w/e lol.
I RIPed. I had completed my build and i achieved most of my goals and challenges so i m not annoyed that i died but from the way that happened. I was in a tier 7 map brutus titleset everything was easy i moved down the stairs in boss level and i found a thing that first time i saw.It put me a spell like razor's in dota a continuous lighting that drained all my life.I didnt know what to do first time i met this i was very far from the monster but the drain couldnt be stopped, i was running to the door i spend all my 4 flasks and i died.Wow my 85 level character with 1k es and 5k life died so fast i cant believe this, everything was so easy and and from nowhere an imba enemy appeared. Do anyone know what was that and if i could had done something to survive?Anyway as Sun Tzu said you cant fight an enemy you dont know, i ll continue to softcore for a bit maybe i try to kill atziri on my own.
That's the torture chamber boss all you have to do is run behind a pillar and she stops. That boss is very easy if you are familiar with what to do and impossible if you aren't.
and yeah like I said haven't played since closed beta, meaning I haven't even seen act 3 yet
Invite sent. <3
Keep in mind the current league is already dieing down hard and most of the guild will come back in full force around Ascendency most likely. Still a good time to figure out all the new stuff tho. =)

could you resend it? we are math of exile right....I thought it was generic like teamliquid lol...
Yep TL guild is math of exile (its not "official" right so... the tag is still "LIQUID").
Even if you are a HC type player I kinda recommend playing through all the acts at least once on Softcore to learn where to go and what bosses do etc. Even then, lots of mechanics are introduced in cruel/merciless that can easily kill you before you understand them (Bleed, Reflect, Bleed, boxes i think, bleed, bleed and bleed).
nono everything's fine if you roll a flask with the "of staunching" suffix that removes bleed (and makes you immune for the duration). The thing about bleed is without one of those flasks your only counterplay is TP or logout. depending on the source, running away can make you take more damage too.
It's not that there's THAT much bleed it's simply that it is THAT lethal without the right flask.
Theres 2 kinds of bleed: puncture (some mobs use puncture) that does a small dot and MUCH more if you move, and Corrupting blood (a mod on some rares/blues) that applies a DoT based on the mob's damage every time you hit them, up to 20 stacks (moving doesn't affect it though).

Wasn't Graveyard Merv fixed in the map overhaul?
She feels really easy now, not like before where she was harder than Necro Merv.
Map RNG is so funny. On Talisman HC I bought two tier 7 maps and played like 30 maps ever since, now I have two T11, six T10, one T9, two T8 and 5 T7.
Meanwhile on Talisman SC, which is my most played league, I haven't bought any maps and tried climbing maps by my own. Well, it worked fine until T7. I don't know exactly how many T7-T9 I have played, but I always fall down to T7. Probably over 100, and the T7 were always alched (sometimes even chiseled), the T8 to T9 always chiseled and alched. (Got quite a lot of Chisels from leveling two chars and picking up lots of Stone Hammers / Rock Breakers / Gavels)
And T7 is probably the worst map tier to play, which just makes it worse. I only like Jungle Valley and to some extent Waste Pool.
