I mean, if you didn't get any passives the classes would be pretty much all the same ? Or am I missing something ? | ||

And yet strictly speaking, the mechanics between this game and diablo 2 are not at all similar. Btw, if anyone with experience has a couple second to spare, please give a glance at my bow duelist build (Blood Magic) and let me know if there are any glaring problems that I should fix. I didnt like Diablo2, but I like Path of Exile. Its way more refined and balanced. D2 was ridiculously inbalanced. Not only referring to classes, but also the skills. Some were great at the beginning, but totally useless late. Or the other way around. The graphics were only a minor improvement over the much older D1, which was a real milestone. Story/atmosphere also way worse than D1. And most of the time it was just about right-klicking and mass farming. Yes, I was very disappointed with D2 after D1. Never understood why it got so many fans. | ||

If someone says 'X item 10 alcs' don't just agree and give 10, offer 6-7 often they will take it. I'm not saying this always works but rarely do you ever have to pay the first offer, unless you're in a c/o bidding war, try and get stuff cheaper! | ||

Edit: Will I need Conductivity on the last fight if I had this much trouble, or would I be able to possibly brute force it with spark and portals again >_< | ||

I was desperate for a spell totem (no quality) so I paid 2gcp for it -_- I think you ripped yourself off no fixed prices and values are probably highly variable based off of the time of day you're playing and server population seems that alch, chaos, and GCP are serving as base currencies though | ||

If you haven't bought one yet and are on softcore, add me Raxmer. I have one for you. | ||
