Just died at level 61 on HC to 10s of lag. I just managed to do the big transition to the gear and abilties that make my self made spec work. Not mad about it. My internet is pretty unplayable during prime time, so I really shouldn't have been playing. At least my local ISP is supposedly upgrading their network soon.
I am looking forward to playing in the one week race now though! I'm going to be going the same (melee only) spec that I was doing before.

I just lost a brand new witch to a stupid disconnection. That has to be the most fucking retarded feature in the game ... You can cheat the system by alt+f4'ing but when you have a legitimate disconnection you just have to pray you character doesn't die until the backend server finally realizes you are completely oos. This is so infuriating ...
which takes like a second , u actually have the same dc time when alt f4ing just saying. Maybe a bit more.
but if get destroyed in like 1 sec, well i dunno what to say^^

hey i have a mechanics question.
how much EHP do you gain going from 75% all resist to 80% (with the talent)? I've been debating this skill node but I'm not sure it's worth it.
it depends on HC or SC. If u are softcore, u can skip it.
They idea behind overcap resists is, that u will get less status alignment, cause these are based on dmg taken compared 2 max life. so with ele adaptation and purity u could get 85% res. which is sick.

So I've been getting tired of the limited audience in the trade chat and decided to make my own trade thread on the PoE forums. Apparently people actually want the stuff I have, who knew. 15% added lightning damage is going for an exalt apparently, go figure.
Well since http://poe.xyz.is/ got "released" threads got like WAYYYY more popular and added lightning has one of the best qualities ingame atm.

I've read that EK is supposed to be really good. How do people normally build an EK character? I've read that they usually link EK with Added Fire Damage and Chain, but what about the character? Do people go for +ele dmg nodes or is the skill damage enough? If you don't really need any +dmg nodes of any kind, I was wondering how a a tanky shield class would work and was considering marauder/templar. I was also wondering if it was plausible to try for a triple charge conduit build, again if EK doesn't need any +dmg from the passive tree.
Also is EK heavily item dependent? If it's not too reliant on gear I'd like to take a stab at my first HC char (also why I was considering build super tanky).
so ek purely skills with lvls and hatred and addefd fire so u dont need any dmg + passives at all (as alwas im talking hardcore here) . u should try to focus on defense and mana, because the only dangerous thing with ek is physical reflect. i always recommend to read up on skills in the wiki first so u get an idea on how they work and then plan the passive tree
i tried taking iron grip lately on ek and u get 0 dps, seems 2 not work with ek 8/

LOLOL well fuck. I just died lvl 35 haha spent all day training too, well time to make another one. stupid death too. was on general in norm with a party, they were killing it while i agro'd like 5 of the ones on me. I threw up a tp and tried to go in but took too dam long.. I went in and the screen was black, but heard my character die and i was like "nooooooooooooo" then went back to login screen haha well first hc death, very interesting. Starting to like hc now, at first I just wanted to play to make money for default since ratio was like 1:3~4. If you're ever in danger the only way of INSTANTLY getting safe is ESC -> quit to login screen. Zoning out via TP/WP/Portals can kill you, alt+f4 can take a couple of seconds till you're gone as well. I think the devs confirmed that logout and alt+F4 take exactly the same time. or did it change recently ?
some of the later patches they pathed that u can get killed while zoning or using tps. so thats not true anymore

It wasn't a full DC. It was something like connect for 0.1 s, lag for 1s, connect for 0,1s etc. Pretty much the only type of fatal lag in PoE. I'm not 100% sure what happened because it was only like 8 skeletons on merciless ledge and I had 3.5k hp with 2.8 life % per second. When it logged me out it unfroze and showed me at 60% hp so I didn't think I was dead. It showed default league when I relogged though.

Found in the marauder forum an EK build, decided I'm just going to do it my way and grab all the life and resist nodes I can. Currently utterly destroying the game at level 33. Finally have enough life and regen to run blood magic, and I just realized that I can Purity/Vitality/Hatred and with reduced mana it'll be 99% of my mana lol.
At level 28 I could 2 shot everything in docks and 1 dock clear was 1 level, that was fun. I do like the idea of using mana for auras and blood magic for EK, it's kind of interesting but a little annoying since I'll always be -1 socket for BM.

Except you'd be using mana leech if you weren't using blood magic. Think of it as needing a red socket instead of green.

Can confirm. It's a spell, not an attack which is why, despite it being physical and using projectiles which is also why an Iron Will support gem will increase its damage instead of Iron Grip.

ugh just died 2nd time in hc now lvl 47 this time. Need a new graphics card, is there one for like $100- usd that could play poe without lag when using skills like LA+Chain or PA?
|
Some quick notes:
-Most of the +15% resist nodes seem overkill. Hell, I'm capped with crappy gear, purity and one diamond skin node atm. If you really want them, spec out of them later
-With the same idea in mind, I don't think rushing to the bottom simply for Diamond Skin and Armour Master is worth it
-I mean, sure, most people put defense over offense but... how are you going to do damage? =P
Edit: Oh. EK. Since I haven't gone for that, do people really take zero damage nodes for it? Also if you go EK you might want to think about some Armour passives at least. I saw someone twoshot themselves on a reflect mob. =P

what's your CPU?
my opinion is that PoE is WAY MORE CPU limited than GPU
I have an AMD 7850 and it usually stays at 30% or less usage while my dual core E8500 @ 4.05 GHz is usually running at 90+% on both cores

If you ever want +1, hit me up. =)

Does flame totem cause burning? Also does each "fireball" from the firestorm cause the support gem to take effect? So if you have added lightning damage, each hit from the falling fireball would cause +# lightning damage.
And around what level is a good time to get Eldritch Battery, like health wise?

Personally after having gotten it on lvl 15 once and another time on lvl 54 I would suggest the earlier the better. Makes you less of a scared kitten and more used to playing without ES. :>

Get EB after you have a decently leveled Discipline gem.
Anyone want to party for S1E18 at 12 pm PST?
