Once you're selling a product (which they are via microtransactions) I'd say it's pretty fair to call it released. Oh well. They have called it "act3x" and it should come out before end of open beta. Usually open beta is stress testing and thus since the problems with server overload is a thing of the past it is pretty much done. The engine problems are serious and needs patching, but it has improved during the transition from closed beta to open beta and it has improved a little since then too. They are also working on improvements so I am patiently waiting. The huge trade-system changes are incoming in a patch near you, the act3X is coming up and they are also planning for some more pvp content in addition to bracketed pvp tournaments though they need to balance the game a lot before then! All of that is expected during open beta. | ||

Didn't you notice that the guy in the trailer is nowhere to be seen in Act 3? And his name (Dominus) is mentioned a few times through Act 3. Oh and you get a key from Piety that opens a door, wasn't that a clue enough? In Act 1 and Act 2 you don't need to leave the last room to progress to next Act. | ||

As far as I remember they are planning for ways to trade items between characters without entering the game, even though security might have been a showstopper for that. A "public stash tab" will be on sale at a later point so players can show items for sale and there are several other changes they still haven't announced. It was about 6 months ago it was a hot topic so it can have changed a lot! | ||

In Act 1 and Act 2 you don't need to leave the last room to progress to next Act. Ergo Dominus = Act 4. When Act 3 wasn't released yet you had the same "door" after defeating vaal. To clarify, I'm not doubting that there might be more Act3 content coming, I'm just stating that I've never heard of, or expected it after my past (closed) beta experiences. | ||

There is music on the soundtrack for the place you "enter" at the end of act 3. | ||

Nope, Dominus will be Act 3. And that door with Vaal was in same room with Vaal. With Piety you only get the key and then you go unlock the door somewhere else. If that was the real end of Act the enterance to next Act would have been right there. | ||

Kaom's Heart goes for 20-30 exalts, depending on how generous they're feeling I guess. | ||

 Dunno at level 65 I had 3400 HP with decent life on most of my gear but nothing special. Its not that hard, just gotta make it a priority. Hardcore builds and all. His chaos resist makes me very jealous though lol. | ||

I just killed Piety yesterday with a 73 marauder, almost entirely life nodes and with good life on gear, but altogether 2500 hp. I have all elemental resists at 80, but -60 chaos. I'm doing maps with that, too. Got instakilled last night by vulnerability + a couple extra damage blues. Kaom's Heart goes for 20-30 exalts, depending on how generous they're feeling I guess. If you're stacking life and only have 2500 at level 70 you're doing something wrong ^_^ | ||

I'm using Etup's EK build, which heavily emphasizes HP. DPS isn't a problem when you have a high quality EK gem and a couple of Bear Traps with Culling Strike. It takes a while to kill things, but with proper flask management, it's really hard to die. I also try to get good life rolls on my gear because of how many life nodes I have, thus increasing their value. My level 70 build (all quests complete). I haven't begun mapping yet; I'm thinking of farming Docks until 73, and the Catacombs until 75 (maybe) post-patch because of the new chest it will have. Hopefully I'll have a nice map pool by then (I only have 2 maps and 16 Chisels ATM) so I can safely enter end game. As for my Chaos resist, I just got some lucky rolls on a few pieces and it just happened to go into the positives. | ||

The reality is, IMO, people who would have played the game are already playing the beta. Getting out of "beta" won't generate a huge influx of players. | ||

It might because the various gaming magazines/sites will start reviewing it when it is released. I have barely seen any marketing at all for path of exile so far and there are probably quite a few potential users out there. | ||

You definitely have the survivability for it. You do have 3 more life nodes than I do. Gear might account for the rest, since I only have 3 items that give life and have Carnage Heart on. | ||
