Okay I did some research and the builds and the builds I want to play is either a LA static blow ranger or EK shadow. What do you guys think is better for a first character? and which build do you guys think farm faster and does more damage overall? Please give me your thoughts =)

Lightning Arrow is a much safer and strong buld than EK imo; it has big range, big damage, and isn't too vulnerable to reflect. There are a lot of LA users though so getting good gear at the endgame will be difficult, but 1-60 you should face roll, especially if you start melee in the templar or marauder trees.

EK Shadow I don't know as much about, but I know that it is vulnerable to reflect physical, has only medium range, and doesn't work as well in groups, so I wouldn't really recommend it as a first character unless you've tried EK and really like how it feels.


For a first character I wouldn't recommend starting as anything other then a ranger for a LA build, because the ranger just get so much more bow skillgems from questrewards than the other classes. Duelists gets a decent amount so they're not that bad, but marauders and templars will have to get most of their skills from drops or trading.

I think LA is still the second-best leveling skill for witches, too.

don't alch them unless you are feeling lucky

use transmutation on them to turn them to magic, then use Alteration if you don't like the mod roll

or use Augmentation if the map rolls 1 mod which you like to roll the second mod

what's your IGN? there's a number of people on TL doing or looking to do maps in softcore.

How do you deal with mana issues early on when playing a LA/LMP Ranger? It seems really bothersome to me, and I just can't see how to deal with it except with flask spamming, and it does kinda bother me.

Get a slow shooting heavy damage bow. Or rush to blood magic.

Does anyone know the calculation for attack speed? Does it have diminishing returns? I'm specifically wondering if it's better for me to simply go for a DPS bow for Frenzy or if I should stop at Thicket.

I used a mana leech gem until I felt comfortable with my dps to switch to blood magic or putting the chain gem in.

First you grab Mana Flows, the best mana passive in the game. You use normal attack a lot until you get a mana leech gem... then you can use that in a 4L to support LA + LMP + something. Then you respec mana flows and grab blood magic. I don't like Blood Magic below level 40, and ideally 50.

There is no cap. One guy in CB had 13+ attacks per second.

The calculation is base attack speed * local attack speed on weapon * global attack speed from passives/gear/frenzy/haste * dual wield bonus.

highest value item in softcore so far?

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/115209/page/1

made some decent currency today selling some items

1 Exalted, 3 GCP, 1 Chain for an Elemental damage wand

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/111179

17 Chaos for Tri-resist boots

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/108433

sold a shield for 2 GCP

I think I also have some rings/amulets/belts that could pull some currency but haven't fully decided on selling them or not

anyways what are people's currency ratios?

I currently use

1 Exalted = 5 GCP
1 Divine = 3 GCP
1 GCP = 3 Chaos = 6 Alchemy = 6 Scouring = 6 Regrets

What is a Chain gem?

The Kaom Heart sold for a mirror over a 70 GCP offer. That bow is catching up rapidly though and I imagine it'll sell for even more.

Anyone know if it's better to go for DPS or attack speed for a phys bow ranger? I'm starting to think that while attack speed is nice and being able to finish an attack and continue moving so I can kite is nice, I really want more damage and investing in a higher base DPS weapon to get good +dmg% rolls on it will just end up better overall.

Is there a max % that you can penetrate a resistance? I am doing my freezing pulse with cold penetration (30% cold penetration) along with frostbite curse (enemies lose 44% cold resist)

Sorry if a dumb question... Just downloaded the game and figured I'd give it a go. Do I need to treat it like D2 and actually do research beforehand to find proper skill/gem builds or can I just swap things around as I go? And if I need to research is there a good place to find information like that?

you need to do some research for a good endgame character but there are things you will learn by playing. i think you should beat the game in normal difficulty, then you will know what to research. poe forums are pretty good place for that.
