Try to hit ledge and farm the route that doesn't have the totem on it. The arrow on the waypoint always points towards the totem. Don't think it's actually possible to make it past the Rocky climb solo.

Choi was apparently farming upper until he got instaggibed about 10 mins from the end.

I'll take note of that arrow on the waypoint. I didn't know that. Do they always point toward the exit ?

Maybe it's more zones they do that, but that's the only one I know of

do any of you guys look at build trees or gear or anything to optimize? im level 58 (hardcore) and on merciless but I feel like ive hit a brick wall on my progression I was barely able to do the fetid pits so now im able to do half of the ledge to farm exp which is helping a lot but the false god is still very hard and I still haven't gotten a medicine chest T_T i'm a s&b evasion ranger and I use infernal blow for aoe and dual strike for single target with grace tempest shield and hatred auras

Can't seem to find your profile Waz. Is that ign spelt correctly? Are you following a guide that you could link to?

I know some people farm ledge on merciless to level 60 to be safe.


edit - Those two areas you mentioned are much harder than the main areas, especially in merciless. I usually leave them till I've nearly finished the act, or even after. At least till you overlevel them anyway.

For Kuduku, if you don't have the resists to fight him (on other chars I like to use skills that I can fire from a screen away or hit'n'run (like bear/fire traps or ice spear) and just take it down safely from range.

Otherwise you can just Quicksilver past and ignore it completely.

22nd overall in the 2h race, but jesus christ was my gear terrible. I had no shot at top 10 because no matter what every piece of gear turned garbage. transmute lightning res ring, get cast speed, alteration, get life leech. no dmg rolls on anything. my life ring transmuted +1 es LOL.

http://www.pathofexile.com/forum/view-thread/483132/page/1/#p4311418

check my reply if you want to see my gear. im really surprised I made 22nd overall given that I easily had the worst gear out of anyone in that race.

I died at like 35 min, was inevitable. Didn't have fire res ring on and then i got temp chained and 6-7 exploders with speed aura rolled me. Just when i found a good weapon At that point i was like #13.

Started the 2 hour 20 minutes late, ended up getting #11 ranger. I had no idea what I was doing as far as routing goes, as normally the other races I've run I've had to progress much slower due to BLAMT and other conditions. Ended up finishing A1 then just farming fellshrine/Sins for the last 20 minutes or so, but gear drops weren't too bad. Overall felt like a pretty decent race.

Should probably post your build. The Koduko totem is suppose to be really hard to solo if you don't have lightning resist and don't have a skill that can offscreen it. I have a similar character And I never had any issues leveling outside of being scared of the oneshot from Merciless brutus / Merciless Vaal.
And without knowing any of your character stats I'd assume that you should probably replace tempest shield. The 4% block is decent, but purity aura is really amazing. Not only is the extra couple of max resist really good, but it also makes you much more flexible with gear. Also tempest shield is considered a buff, not an aura so you have to re-apply it every single time you enter an instance, which gets tedious after a while.

I also use cleave / double strike. At lvl 58 you can start using corsair swords (gemstone swords are good too, which are lvl 56). Maybe try trade chat if you can't find one. Iirc I remember I gave 3 chaos for a 190ish dps 1hander that had some extra cold dmg, which pushed it into 230ish dps. Which made me kill stuff in Merci fellshrine in 1-2 seconds per packs.

12th overall as duelist, came pretty close to beating zoroxo. duelist is so easy lol, I could have went chamber of sins but I decided to go for first to full clear cave instead which I barely didn't get.

9# overall #5 duelist. Had one of the worst starts ever. Used the start weapon until lvl 8 when I got a rusted spike. At least found a sapphire ring and quicksilver on the way to merveil so I killed her without using a single port. Guess that helped me catch up a lot.

Best way to get up there is to play duelist lol. 22nd overall as ranger in the first race today (which is my main race class), 12th overall as duelist. Seriously, try duelist it will boost you up there very quickly.

I already have a strategy for the 24m race, I'll just go templar and ice nova everything. Best way to level early on. easy points.

Yeah it seems like duelist is consistently placing more at the top in every race, except for BLAMT from what I saw of the 1 race I've seen of it. I just kind of arbitrarily picked ranger because it seemed like fun and I had already played around with a witch and a shadow. I may try and start learning another class but I really want to get the in's and out's for rangers pinned before I switch classes.

Although overall ranger seems like a really solid class, and I don't mind missing out on a few points as I don't really use the rewards anyways, since the characters I'm playing are all on onslaught. T_T

Yeah statistically speaking, in Descent ranger is the second best class. Duelist is by far the best class in any race that is less than 2h long. I would also argue that Duelist is the easiest class to play, I can do better with duelist than with ranger even though I play ranger almost every race, not only that I usually place somewhere in the top 3 for ranger and still beat that with duelist in the same type of race.

Witch, in my opinion, is by far the hardest class in descent, I did 1 descent race with witch and placed somewhere in the top 8 for witch at lvl 17 or so. Which is kind of hilarious, but it's really hard and frustrating, so I wouldn't ever recommend witch if you want to play descent races, just not very fun and extremely gear dependant.

Templar I feel is in a good place right now, I know Kripp wants cleave in chests for templar's in descent which I think is absurd. They get ice nova early on which clears low level zones much faster than even cleave, if they got cleave at say lvl 7 or 9, they would be destroying absolutely any other class even duelists.

Yeah I watch Fleep's descent races quite often, and i'm not sure which racer it is but someone in vent with him and kripp always races a witch and he's always quite a few levels behind. Sometimes you feel bad just listening haha.

You can't help but feel bad for him sometimes. I think on his record run he ended up getting ice nova and cleave in like the first 40 seconds of zone 1.
