Are you using the Garena version, what server are you playing on?


What do you mean by Garena version. I went to steam and downloaded it from there and installed. Europe, but I tried already every single server.

Well, I'm pretty much done with this game I think. It's fun, but just so unrewarding, Level 76 and I've upgraded my weapon through using pretty much every alch and chaos I've found and had an armor piece drop once since merciless.

Even Diablo 3 dropped upgrades more often than PoE, and D3 was pretty terrible with regards to that already.

Yes I'm aware I could just trade for items and have awesome gear, but trading in ARPGs just feels like using a trainer in D2 did, it might be fun for a little bit, but it gets very boring very quickly (and that's ignoring the fact that trading in PoE is boring as fuck and much more time consuming than it should be due to no AH/the currency system).

I'll probably still log on occasionally and do a map or two when I've got nothing else to do, but unless they change the drop rates of orbs (never even seen an exalted or eternal, and there's no way to get one without trading meaning they essentially don't exist for anyone playing self found), or make an actual crafting system then I doubt I'll be back properly or spend any more money on the game.

Oh, and in before "if more upgrades dropped you'd be bored after a month of having an OP char". No, I wouldn't, and even if I was it wouldn't be any different than the current situation anyway, atleast I'd have had more fun leveling up getting regular upgrades. I'd also be more inclined to play different chars if I thought I might actually be able to get gear that's useful more than once every 2 weeks.

self found is pretty hard if you go for a gear dependent build. i see people give advice like "expect your first char to suck", and that's really nonsense. you should look to build up wealth with your first char in order to unlock the possibility of paying for gear for alts. it's pretty bad to play self found as your first char, because you'll not have money to fund the actual builds that are fun for you.

It's got nothing to do with needing gear for my build, I wasn't finding anything particularly difficult, it also wasn't my first char (well, that one was on Dom).

It's just the fact that literally all I get from playing is XP, I might as well not bother picking loot up, because there's a 99.9% chance that it's going to be trash.

I'd also rather not build up wealth on one char then buy a load of gear for another one, as I say to me there's no difference between using a trainer and going on poe.xyz.is putting in the stats I want and buying it imo.

The the game probably isnt for you then . The trading through various currencies is what makes POE stand out for me, and the dev put a lot of efforts into creating this type of mass-dictates economy. It's not flawless, but I like it.

that's a pretty silly attitude to have, because as your own gears get better and better the standard for good items become higher. if you are not doing trading this is true, if you are doing trading this is still true, as good items become more abundant in the economy and they do not get destroyed.

what you are looking for requires a specially designed, isolated game mode in which drops scale automatically to match what you have. that seems to be much more artificial and kid glove than the current game. i'd call your desired game mode using a trainer tbh


also you seem to be crafting stuff with alch/chaos. this is really inefficient and if you are doing it on non top tier bases too, then it's a complete waste of currency

I've been having the same problem, it only seems to be when I party with 5 other people. Maps are basically useless to me because of this. Havent played for more than 2 hours the whole week because I literally can't do end game maps without dying to desync or getting disconnected and not being able to rejoin the map I was in. When I solo it seems to be more stable but who wants to farm maps solo?

Also eu server

They are up on reddit.

only 4 of the 5 though.

Theres a mega-high-crit phys/chaos/dot dagger that seems pretty good (I'd guess it hovers at 3-4 ex forever).
Theres the terrible staff that they previewed.
Theres an unuseable hat that sets all your resists to 0
and one more I forget.

Edit: oh yeah the last one is a super low level shield that buffs your curses but also makes curses last twice as long on you. Also rarity on a shield >_>


Dagger looks quite cool. Fits to the recent DoT buff. I think the helmet is intended to be used with high spell-block. Immortal Flesh will probably synergise good as well.

high spell block won't prevent your high end magic damage taken getting quadrupled, or tripled in the case of immortal flesh. i think it's not viable. i mean even in normal difficulty having 0 lightning res won't get you past sin 3

With orb of transmutation, you can upgrade a normal item to a magic item......but when do you do it? I mean, how do you know that this blue item will be better than a yellow item? Rare's have more properties, which makes them better in....almost all cases. :/

The higher the level (requirements) of a white item, the better the blue item should become i think. But again: In almost all cases the rare item is still better, simple due to the fact of more properties.

Welp, got my Templar to level 80. With Purity of Lightning I can facetank Dominus (and his stupid lightning dogs), which feels pretty anticlimactic.

Now if he would cough up some good items...

starting to run into situations where lack of map knowledge / experience is starting to get me into sketchy situations

almost RIPed 2 - 3 times running Museum solo with just extra Lightning damage mod

seemed like big Skeletons were able to crit me for half my HP

have 6107 Armor, 4828 HP, 38% block, capped resists, and can build up to 5 endurance charges

was able to body pull the bosses though and solo each one
