Don't play skinner boxes, play something with any actual entertainment value instead

i just did what youre about to do, for like 10+ hours

uhhhh
best build ic ould find, picked same class , is this [3.0] Whaitiri's Arc Witch

and erm, the game gets kinda boring around 7.5 hour mark, act 2 really drags on, progress starts to slow, and core gameplay loop isnt enticing enough to keep playing. i almost wrote a review based off my expeirence of 1` sitting but im gonna wait til i play more before shiitting all over it


if youre poor, id recommend playing marvel heroes over this,

its basically like.. an online version of titan quest, about on par with that, only with worse map design, worse economy, story, enemy variety/.skill variety

im kinda tired and about to go to bed, so dont feel like sayin g much else

Lvl 39 Witch here.
You will rarely change armor and wands because no need to. And use the same spells mostly so she can get boring at times.
Find minions gems to bring over friends to fight with you.
Don't do stupid things on the skills and make like a Sword and Shield witch.
Go north on the skill tree ONLY and have fun.
Expect people to shit on this post because I just like to have fun with my RPG and NEVER follow builds and guides.

This update ruined my performance. Tried every DX version, all kinds of settings, and nothing. Annoying as hell since it worked fine last week. Unplayable for me right now, unless I go full Dobson Skyrim Mode

retard alert

Interested in checking out the game later today, anyone want to group up? Is this game best played solo or with someone?

>>386344764
Don't die

>>386347998
Group will probably be more fun if you're new

>>386344764
lag

>>386348636
the lag has been fixed for like 4 patches now

>Playing a game that requires you to look up a guide to win

Also you'll have to trade for the gear or your build will be fucked, have fun!

Nah, start with SSF first to learn the ropes and not be stuck behind everybody because you don't know what the fuck you're doing.

>>386347304
Chaos orbs are main trading currency usually, check poe.trade for gear to level with.
Alternatively get a elemental resistance ring, magic (blue) wand/scepter and a alteration orb, sell to vendor and they'll give you the same gear back with +1 to gem level (fire/ice/lightning based off the resistance ring) and you'll wreck face

Is this game worth a playthrough if i don't plan on mindlessly farming pointless shit in the "end game".

>>386350067
do you like diablo clones?

>>386350067
Yeah, everyone i know playing has already poured hours into it and just steams through the start as fast as they can. Not fun to play with.

Man the new acts and bosses are so fucking cool.

went Paragon of Calamity using Elemental Hit, was fun didn't went far tho...

>>386350067
Yes, single player is really fun and dark. There are all kinds of fucked up missions and people you will will come across.
Path of Exile brought back the visual Satanism to those RPGs.

>tfw the helmet I need for my build has gone up from 2ex to 4ex already

>>386350243
Liked diablo and torchlight so i guess. But can't be bothered to grind shit at endgame, just want a fun arpg to play through.

>>386351625
it's f2p so give it a shot, not like you have anything to lose
i feel like the atlas system really gave more incentive for playing maps, as you can control which maps you get and have objectives to work towards to unlock more

No way to hide ugly hats in this game?

>>386351748
It's also more fun to play through now with the linear act 1 to act 10 thing instead of a1 to 4 x three times

>>386351812
only $29.99 in the item shop, my good goy

>>386352015

Interested to try this Torchlight 2 skins. Looks magical.

All the gear look like shit it's depressing

>>386352547
It matches the story of being an exile scavenger but mostly you will look like garbage.

I'll be playing solo and find all my own items like a normal Diablo because multiplay is for gays only

>>386352712
You're supposed to kill gods and you look like a trash can

>>386352723
Remember to check "solo self found" when making a character, then.

use the kinetic blast it is the coolest skill

Build defensive, you do no dps and get no experience as a corpse on the ground
Raging spirits is a pretty solid spell for starting out

Also shamelessly flaunting my immaculate fashion

You can do a Sword and Shield Witch if you go towards Templar in the skill tree. Not recommended for new players though. The dumbest way you can try and build Witch is to try to build her like a Duelist.

>>386344764
Whats the new nonSRS summoner build? Is the chaos spamming skeleton thing legit or just a meme?

>a huge update that should peak the interest of people looking to enjoy a video game
>they find out it's boring repetitive f2p shit with micro transactions
>only retards who've already committed a great deal of time on the game continue to play it.

Why does this pile of shit still exist?

>>386353604
Because it has a core of extremely autistic people that masturbate to the skill tree 3 times a day and have thousands of hours of playtime that only stop playing POE to come onto 4chan and call people noobs for not being able to come up with an endgame viable build on their own in 5 seconds.

>>386353604

>yours truly, salty D3-shill.

>>386353185
I'm only lvl 40 but I think it's pretty fun. Gonna toy around with scorching ray + cast while channelling + dark pact later. The totem with faster cast definitely pops skellies out fast enough

I'll keep playing Grim Dawn instead, thank you.

Jewery is half the fun of the game, and all the cash you collect means nothing if you can't throw it at other people

>>386354103

Understandable if its the first time they play through the new content. First time Act 5 Kitava can have a surprising amount of burst damage that early on. Had 1900 Life and that inverse X-pattern explosion almost killed me instantly.

Play until Act 3, you unlock a new character class Scion. Then you can literally build her however you want from the start. The reason you can't play her immediatly is to prevent plebs from playing her the first time and fucking up their builds when they branch across the tree aimlessly.

This is why I hate MMOs.

You have to follow a stupid build guide and go for the OP build in each category or people will ignore you.

>>386354587

Well yeah but that was their reasoning. And its understandable because with Scion plebs can most easily make the common pleb mistake of trying to build with 3 colors as their first build.

tfw no female shadow and duelist qt
also a male witch (warlock?) would be cool

Whats a good build that makes clears a screen in one button press?
I did a Vortex build with a shadow and it was pretty fun the first time.
