Path of Exile(diablo clone)

Off on a tangent I'm curious to know what class/build people play and why? I'm trying out a few of them to see what I like. So far after less than 10 levels I quite like the Ranger but I'm sure things can change as you level up.

this is pretty handy to see what was most popular early in a new league


Typically first characters will be strong on a low budget to help unlock the atlas map points


Ranger lightning arrow is really fun and very popular
Boneshatter jug or slayer very strong melee
Explosive arrow also a great league starter, it's just a bit slower mapping and a bit more clunky but can clear everything

Are you following a build guide?
I am for an RF Juggernaut, Pohx's. Even with that there's a lot of head scratching when gear etc doesn't quite match up right. Trying to use the main skills and pick the suggested passive skills to keep me in the right direction.

It gives you problems to solve as you go along with your build, even with a very good guide like Pohx's, that's the learning experience, and you'll get out more than you put in. Keep going!

sis kid doing RF with some tatto explody added.
He likes it.

I killed all bosses already which he havent been able to do.
I run shockwave totems as poe melee range is a deathsentence
 
Could we get the mods to change the title, PoE isn't a Diablo clone anymore, Diablo is trying to clone PoE!
Poe2 especially will eradicate diablo from the game arena.
Not sure how blizzard devs got the arpg design so wrong.
7 months for poe2 beta.

afflication league in a week looks pretty darn good with an oled
may play some hdr on with this league
 
initial plan was deadeye, RoA > LA > TS
but trying out Rue's splitting steel champ later tonight to see how it feels after swap at 40+
 
My only gripe with "safe" league starters considering all the changes.

I have done:
SRS, Shock Wave totem, EA Champ, TR, LA and CF.

Dont like minions, so that usually is an out for me.

I want to do lightning conduit, I know it was nerfed from first release, but I think thats what I want to start :D
Also the new gem looks great!
That or I will be started EA Champ and just rush void stones, then start another build :D
 
Also to add, there are sooo many new cool Gems.

I really want to play something stupid but I too am stupid and this games mechanics and builds go right over my head sometime xD
So I need guides :D

Lot of interactions that can create some interesting things.

I usually just play a set and go build, I like traps but it usually is to much to deal with.
(mecfs energy illness)
so totem set and let the totem deal with targeting.
