Path of Exile(diablo clone)

I recommend anybody new registers at least one of each of the six characters as all the usable names are rapidly being used up. Took me about ten attempts to name a Dualist this morning. This is one (of the very few) areas where D3 was better in that names appeared to be linked through the user ID, rather than being entities themselves.

I was shocked a few days ago when I named a Marauder 'MalletLord' and it wasn't taken!

Also, great item name :D

As Diablo clones go it seems to have more of a titan quest feel about it than a Dungeon Siege 2 buzz, i wasnt overly keen on titan quest.

but then again we have obsidian entertainment's project eternity to come

Interesting. I didn't really get into Titan Quest at all but I am loving Path of Exile. Project Eternity does look to have a lot of potential though, looking forward to it.

Went through with this advice, bizzarely, none of the names I picked had been used.

OK im upto lvl44 on my cold/crit witch now and its getting tough!

Act 2 cruel I get 1 shotted in the first zone.... I was actually 41 when I got to cruel but I went back and leveled a bit on the ledge in act 1 because it was too scary!

No way I could play HC as a witch, I doubt i'd make it out of the first few zones haha

EXP loss is a pain in the backside with this spec/class... ive been 1/2way through 44 several times but just logged now at zero exp into the level again.

WTF is it with the damn public groups and getting to the boss you want only for it to already be dead? I screamed at my screen after the 123123123 time it happening.

I still have a massive amount to learn before I can declare this is my next game but it has its hooks into me. I think I just need to up my game and stop playing like its D3 ez mode :P
 
Good god Vaal sucked ass on my Ranger. I could survive a single laser so long as I was at full hp. The ranged summons could do a decent chunk of damage if I didn't keep moving. Luckily you were usually fine so long as you kept moving. But yeah, he killed me twice (put a TP up in the area or you'll regret it!).

After reading some stuff on the forums I've decided its a good idea to adjust my build slightly and go after some more health nodes. Apparently you should treat Vaal as a defence check so if you're having trouble with him you are probably in need of more defences.
 
I have lots and lots of rares from 5 - 38 ish if anyone is after any upgrades - liteterally about 6.5 stash tabs full of them, was saving to do crafting but I don't think I can actually make anything with them as they are all ID'd and none are the same name. So if anyone needs any upgrades, add me: Yoleni, and I'll see what I have available.

Edit: Don't need anything for them, all free, although if you feel like letting any Alchemy or Chaos Orb's go I won't complain :p

Nah, its Final Fantasy Diablo :p

You've got the gritty combat and style of Diablo. The Materia system for active skills from Final Fantasy. The Sphere Grid system for passive skills, also from Final Fantasy.

I realise these are probably not the only games that use these things but that is what I associate them with...

I came across a boss yesterday who inspired a name for a new Shadow. His name was Voidshot the Faceshredder. Immediately went to create a dagger specced Shadow called Voidblade Facestabber :D
 
Been playing since OB started and so far its excellent, far superior to how it was a year ago. Theres a ton of customization and lot of ways to play and playstyles, the disconnects are annoying but they are only in the evenings uk time with the worst time being around 11pm. The thing to remember is that this game is not only free to play, its also a beta. There was no pre purchase required in order to play the beta (GW2/WOW) im looking at you). It is a small company and as far as I have seen so far they are doing all they can to improve things on a daily basis.
Also any problems issues you have with the game , if you want them changed/looked at etc post in their forums about them, it IS a beta for that purpose.

On a seperate note did my first map last night and while it wasnt as hard as i thought I am a bit disappointed with my shadows build. Trying a witch now (yes 2 totems and curses)
 
I have struggled through and now made it to act 3 cruel on my witch!

im only 49 now so i'll have to farm a lot on a2 to get some gear but if anyone needs a boost add me etc, wendelina is my toons name.

Damn cruel is hard, I hate to think what the final difficulty will be like.

Youtube has helped me on the crafting understanding, I actually managed to upgrade an items sockets and links to make it so that it changed the way I play!

The instance systems sux balls still, so many times I end up in dead boss instances, or outside an instance I cant get in or just plain ported away from the mob im trying to kill. Noob tip is to just run to the part you need a hand with and then open a portal, create a public group. The portal will allow you to get back if you die!

Difficulty wise im finding it tough but I love it! It's refreshing to have a game that ups your pay ability, the challenge is back with this one.
