Not only is it not important, it's almost impossible. The only reliable way to get power charges is to use Power Siphon which requires a wand. Otherwise, you'd need to hope for a particular unique item drop which is very unlikely.

Beginner to the game (totally new, hadn't heard of it before). I like a lot of the features of the game, like the town/party system, being able to grab people's loot after it is timed out (i think that timer needs to be a lot longer though), and a few other things like socketing skills. I do think that (from my level 1-10 experience so far) the game is really slow and sluggish though. I don't really like the combat so far, I felt in D3 and Torchlight 2 the combat was more exciting early on. The 'skill' tree also seems disappointing, I wish it less about increasing stats slowly and more about gimmicky abilities every few levels.

Hoping the combat gets a lot better but right now that's the biggest weakness in the game for me. Still seems like a better game than Diablo 3 but not quite better than TL2 but I might change my opinion if it picks up in later levels.

Also, no complete skill respec?! Da fuq!

You get your abilities through gems, which are usually the more exciting progressions for me. +there are keystone passives which completely change the game.

You don't really need complete respecs unless you want to play a completely different kind character, in which case it makes more sense to re-roll. As long as you take at least 50% defensive passives, you should be fine.

Combat does get absolutely better when you get your build and gear together. I always link this video when people say combat in PoE feels too slow: + Show Spoiler +

Oh my god that combat looks so much more awesome than what I'm experiencing. I still feel the lower levels need a bit more fun and speed from what I've experienced, maybe more visceral animations and stuff. I'll definitely put in the time to get higher level for the more fun stuff.

I'm curious for those who have played it for a long time -- how does it stack up to torchlight 2 and diablo 3 overall? Is it a better game?

Yeah, I definitely agree that the early game isn't the greatest, which is a shame because it probably turns away a lot of potential players. All the classes are pretty good, except some people feel Duelist is underpowered (I disagree). Your starting class isn't as restrictive in other games. A shadow can be a spell caster, an Energy Shield melee fighter (like in that video), a traditional HP fighter, could probably even go bows if you want.

Ya I was feeling a bit turned off by the early game but I'm looking at higher level videos and it seems really awesome. I think they just need to speed up early game so far and it's gold. At least from what I've seen. Back to playing! Looks like there's a ton of variety in builds!

The early game is less slow in a party or with twinking. It really reflects the feeling of you being exiled and having nothing to eventually being powerful.

The combat definitely doesn't pick up until you have fleshed out your skill/support gems to your liking. The progression of playstyle is definitely based mostly on what skill/support gems and keystone passives you choose and then to a lesser extent your other passive skill points. I think they've done a good job of balancing general stat passives that may not make an immediate impact but help shape your character to be strong at what you want him to be strong at, high impact stat passives that you notice immediately but maybe aren't as exciting, and keystone passives that can dramatically affect your playstyle, gear, and skill choices.

The build of the week video that the guy ^ linked is a great example of this, and I would recommend that series in general as good examples of the depth of playstyles in this game. Some of the older videos are probably out-of-date and not completely relevant, but you can still glean some good ideas from them.

Extending from this, I bet 10 bucks that no matter which bandit I help, he will backstab me after I kill the other two. Such is the pattern in this game world.

If you're playing co-op and you want different rewards for the Bandit quest than your party-members, do you need to temporarily quit the party, complete the entire quest alone, then re-group when everyone is done?

I find myself running out of scrolls of wisdom to identify stuff, is there any other way to identify items. The total amount of blue items dropping just seems very large compared to the number of scrolls you get :S

You have to get used to mostly not identifying items unless you can potentially use them or if you have extra Wisdom scrolls lying around. You can trade unidentified items to the vendors just the same as identified ones. If you don't ID absolutely every magic item that drops, you'll have more than enough Wisdom scrolls to go around.

I don't think it's true. ID'ed items sell for a bit more. Exactly how much more I can't say (I didn't study it carefully yet), but there is an increase in value.
