Was thinking about making a templar base summoner, ended up realizing i end up taking all the points to the witch start, and might as well just start witch to be able to use summons earlier.

come again?


your pw got compromised from other sites, it doesn't need to be just poe fansites. also, the hackwave apparently happened because GGG announced they were going to implement new security measures (they defo should have kept quiet and rolled them out), so the compromised passwords they were sitting on were put to use immediately.

It doesn't make sense that you quote a patch note that happened after the hacking occurred..

That's what I'm currently trying to do, a witch summons. Early levels are a pain to say the least.

EDIT: btw if we buy an item from micro transaction shop is it one use? Mostly talking about Skelly skin.

Summon Witch is weak till lvl 15-16 when you get Minion Instability. From then on it starts rolling.

If I remember correctly you can use those cosmetic items as often as you want, but only on one item at a time. It's somewhere in the store FAQ.

You can "reclaim" microtransaction effects for use on another character.

Sadly, there is not. I assume this is by design to avoid players ctrl-clicking stuff and wasting currency by accidentally choosing the wrong thing. But yeah, it does get pretty tedious.

@Infernal: You can't ctrl-click to buy stuff from vendors. It only works when selling, when transferring to/from stash, or when trading.

If I were you I would drop the defense nodes and get point blank. From my experience, though I never played sword mara, defense does not help you as much as you would think, especially in higher level maps; that, and you already have iron reflexes. However, if you were to get point blank, then LS then becomes that much more powerful... even if you're using swords... which I don't recommend, but to each their own.

Also, I am interested in how your build will progress. You seem to have many 1h dmg, and sword nodes. Whilst that will increase your damage, you also need to keep in mind that, in the end game, you will want survivability more than anything. As is, if you were to skip on some of the 1h sword dmg nodes, and the armor nodes, you could easily reach Thick Skin in the Archer tree. Thick skin is really good and it is something that all builds, bar CI builds, should aim for if they are heading into the archer tree.

glhf with your build, though. I would say you're on the right track given the gimmicky nature of the build!!!

Pretty much this. In the early game those skill nodes and such might help out a lot but at the end game your damage is pretty much all on gear/quality of gems.

Very good Hack n Slash with more depth than any other in the genre to date that I have ever played. For me though i am not sure if i will be pulled in longterm. It's really fun to experiment and level new characters, but I got to the point where I wanted to level my main character who was already at the stage of doing maps. At that point it really becomes a less rewarding experience for me. I feel like the map system and crafting is too targeted towards neckbeard teams. Solo and casual players its just good, but not amazing fun end game system, that's my take on it at least, but It is a game that I respect, as a old school gamer I do like a lot of what they did with PoE.

Thanks for the tips! very much appreciated. Im just tired of maces with ground slam, and just like swords in general, and would like to find a way to utilize them, as well as utilize a decent shield block % as well, so that i can hopefully get a good balance of dmg and survivability. Obviously all this is coming from a noob, my 1st real build ive made by myself.

My main problem tho i think will be accuracy, since i want to make use of sword skill points, they all involve accuracy/crit, which means if i took RT, than i would waste points in the sword areas. which is why i decided to take the 1h dmg nodes at the start, giving me some dmg, as well as accuracy with the Versatility node, and it being conveniently next to the shield nodes as well makes it seem fairly efficient. Again, all this coming from me a noob, so any thoughts and criticisms are welcome! Will say tho, making a 1h sword/shield with mara seems hard as hell, but i want to be a true sword and boarder!

Ended up 56th 5th witch, ran so bad at the start.. 2 d/cs had to re-run both dark forest and the zone right after brutus, rubber banded twice on way to merveil, I still have no idea how the 'theonlywitch' guy gets where he does so fast.

I only caught up because of some nice drops at the end, 250dps freeze pulse 1 shot things in western..

I usually always play SC. Did the solo Race, had no clue what I should be doing. Ended #410. It was suprisingly "easy" not to die. I still wouldnt want to play hc all the time. Its so stressfull.

Grats, you beat a lot of big names, pretty impressive. Did you do a standard 1h run and just wing it from there?

It's a matter of risk management. If you level normally, surviving isn't too difficult. The question is how big of a risk you're willing to take in order to improve your ranking. If you take a chance and it pays off, you could leap ahead of the pack. However, if things go wrong, they have a tendency of going horribly wrong, which could cost you your character.

Pretty much; I was initially planning on just farming City of Sarn until end, but I got there with ~1hr15mins left and thought I should try to go all the way. Didn't know that you don't have to do the clarissa quests to get to docks; I realized my mistake when I got the notification "First one to enter Crematorium lvl 1".

I beat mouze by only 25k exp, talk about close calls x)
