Those are probably 200 exalted builds, with GG Opal Rings and everything. A good wand helps, but isn't everything.

Best wand is about 380 edps, so I'm guessing that's a big gap. I'm using diamond rings with 30 crit chance and 30 WED, and a belt that gives 40 WED. I know its not as good as Opal Rings but I don't think its a huge difference maker.

I suspect those sub 3-min kills are done with +2 barrage projectiles enchant on helm, that's probably the biggest difference maker. Other than that I'm just missing the 4 prop jewels.

This build is just a bottomless pit where all your currency go to provide you with diminishing returns.

This is often recommended for new players. EE in general has tons of good videos. Of course the mentioned video is a bit outdated by now (for example there's no more 3 difficulties), but it gives some good info nevertheless.

When I started this game I checked wiki if i wondered about a mechanic and had some streamer on background who talks about game mechanics so I could maybe pick up a tip. I would also pull very carefully and make sure my position was good so I don't rip.
Pretty straightforward game to lvl 80 if u've played other ARPG game before.
as useful as teasalt

yeah, this is the reason I didn't make a wander this league. you have to sink a shitton to get things working and you're still squishy (bad for HC)

however it is definitely the fastest clearing build. when I party with geared wanders they are very significantly faster than everyone else, and can carry 6 man parties (preferrably with support)

headhunter or 2x inspired learning is also very important to get things running. really helps your clear

also are you using esh's mirror? that adds a lot of damage as well. not sure when to use that or lycosidae though
aka "neophyte". learn lots. dont judge. laugh for no reason. be nice. seek happiness. -D[9]

I think as long as you understand that a working character is expected to pretty much instakill white mobs from act 3 onwards, life and resists are really good, you can't go too wrong. Try different skills, have fun.

Really depends on the league to be honest. When Nemesis was the new league it was really rippy :D

First week(s?) of Invasion league was the worst offender so far, some monsters were crazily overtuned, for informed and uninformed people alike. Though Beyond was worse in that the monsters were tanky as fuck early on making leveling painful.

Were you guys aware that some of the elemental nova essences (e.g. Hatred and Anger) put a debuff on you reducing the elemental resistances of the specific element? This may get sketchy if you play ele weakness maps and is not cleansable with flasks (then again, due to curse removal working on map mods it's probably no big deal right now).


Quoting myself from way back here. Anyway, I just tested this with a weeping and a screaming essence and it appears that the debuff is always 10% no matter the tier. Still not on the wiki and I don't have an account...

I have been leveling my spectre summoner slowly waiting for the patch to hit. It has been kind of fun so far but spectres tend to die in any boss fight. I hope they are more durable by the time I reach maps. I even maxed their resists and got most of the minion life nodes on the tree but they still die. But I am not using Bone Offering yet since I don't care that much to keep them alive atm as I am leveling mostly with SRS. Maybe I should get one of those life flasks that also heal your minions.

The "spectres have 100% increased life" necromancer node is pretty good for keeping them alive

i'm doing a spectre build leveling with SRS. zombies + spectres are essentially just meat shields for now, so i just picked up something tanky - i used rattling condemned for awhile, then the colossus statues from act 8. the only time they die occurs if i run into a particularly nasty/ large group of mobs. skullhead regen keeps things pretty healthy otherwise.

I just pick up anything tanky on the way that is also melee. I got spectre and srs in tabula linked with same gems.
I took some minion regen passives and got a Vitality aura and normal packs don't kill them. Fights vs Harbingers and big bosses do.

I've tried to get into PoE with 3.0 but the 1 shots and how quick you go from 100-0 just feels so off putting.

Is this how the game always is or is it something that changes between patches?
It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

It does feel bad at times but you get used to it. Also you get used to investing a lot into survivability.
