Path of Exile(diablo clone)

So today was going to be my last day on Warband, I really prefer hardcore so was keen to make a new char on Tempest. The unthinkable happened, I was going a Zana mission (Mountain Ledge), and a Mirror dropped..........

Not sure what to do with it to be honest. As I'm guessing nobody will have equivalent currency in a challenge league. What would you guys do with it?

I like aqueducts more personally because they drop the divination card for Tabula Rasa. I've sold a few of the cards and gotten around 18c, and I have a few left over I'm saving to get my own. Pretty nice bonus but depends on your RNG. I got pretty lucky with the drops.

Holy ****, grats. Yeah probably save it for now, nobody has enough to buy a mirror atm I doubt. Could still get some offers though.

really depends.
either mirror something in this league
or sell it for around 190ex (or whatever the current rate is) on standard

What loot filter are you using?

What are you even trying to say.

Not trying say any thing as ive already said it

You get full XP from any area that is your level. The further you are above (or below) your level, the less XP you get.

At level 71 you get full XP from, I believe, zones level 64-78.

Maps start at level 66.

Merciless Docks was level 62 pre-patch, not sure if that's changed now.

Possibly the question you meant to ask was "what zone is best to farm at level 71" but you used the word 'map' which means something more specific in Path of Exile. If you meant zones, then anywhere in act 4 merciless should give you full XP, so pick the highest level zone you can clear efficiently. Dried Lake and Mines are often suggested in my experience, and Tune seems to agree about those.

Cheers Bird, dried lake is working perfect my player is actually leveling up again now.

Great! Glad I could help

map struggle is real.
had 1 lvl76, ~5 75.
think I got 1x75 left and 3-4 74s

Exactly.... it don't help when you get dumb remarks like these "What do you mean best map? Just do all of the ones you have. Even the lowest level ones will good xp at 71."

dr_volki · 20 Jul 2015 at 10:03

@CyberCrow

if you're still lvl 71, you should be starting to do maps from the laboratory / hideout.
maps in 2.0 now start at lvl 68. start farming those and the move up in lvl once you feel you have enough / xp progress slows down. ( I think I started doing maps at lvl 66 as I rushed it

)

just make sure you have all you resists capped at 75% (excluding +max res mods

).
ideally you also want to be elemental weakness resist capped. (think it's around 110% res required to be capped).

if your gear sucks check on poe.trade , a lot of the mediocore gear is now fairly cheap. any questions just ask here or ingame @volkis_LA

dunker · 20 Jul 2015 at 10:03

they've added a fair few different monsters, was playing in a pretty easy 72 sea map last night, modded it so there were lots of magic monsters but there were about 10? corrupted roah's? think that's what they were called and they were super tough. they were one shotting my incinerate totems and nearly one shotting me, i did take them down hah i have two totems, but wow they were so tough and unexpected.

charging roahs

more magic monsters now also rolls bloodlines mod automatically.
but yes if you're squishy roahs, frogs, devourers are no fun.

dunker · 20 Jul 2015 at 10:20

not too squishy really, only lv75 though but about 3.6k life,
all res capped, 3.8k armor and about 1k evasion (need more evasion) and yeah they were bloodlines. experianced a new? bloodlines mod yesterday, killed the pack and went to pick up the loot

and boom dead. some kind of delayed cast on death i guess, was funny heh

Ziggys loot filter

Ziggys loot filter

what kinda build?
I'm lvl 85 and have only about 3,8k life. 10k evasion, acro, phase acro.

gear upgrades are hard to come by without paying over the odds.
Also currently waiting for my hyrri's ire to 5 or 6 link for 10% doge & spell dodge.

bloodlines are jus the mods from the previous league, but GGG have removed p-link and have added thornflesh (dmg reflect).

dunker · 20 Jul 2015 at 11:01

yeah thornflesh i definetly look out for on my arc witch, zapzapzap dead lol.

one i'm doing now is pretty much LiftingNerd's flame totem witch, but using Spell Totem+Incinerate rather than flame totem. i've taken a few more life nodes rather than totem damage nodes, really just balancing dmg/life.

had a lovely Daresso's Dragonscale drop yesterday, almost 1k armor so pretty good rolls, got 6S and good colours, just need to 5L or 6L now, happily settle for a 5L

Cheers Volki,

Is there any loot filters that work well with Ranger class as most ive seen so far seem to high light meele weapons in favour of bow/projectile.

at the moment i'm using Hegemony's loot filter, it's pretty plain and only fades loot you don't want. I'm not entirely sure if it shows Bows (harbinger bow) but might be able to edit it myself and post it on here.

if you want something specific showing let me know and i'll have look when i get home.

That would be great Volki, im using Ziggys at the moment but it don't show up scrolls an portals, im mainly after some thing that just shows up items of value at the moment as im grinding Dried Lake for a couple of days.

It wasn't a dumb remark, I just assumed you'd know what maps are considering you are level 71. You should have found quite a few by then. And its the truth, any map would give you good XP at 71. Not sure why you got aggressive because I tried to help you.

Do you mean the white bases that you can craft? You could easily put them into any loot filter you are using. But this one seems good.

I don't like everything hidden though so I use this one. Highlights the important things and fades everything else. Hege's is based off that one but changes a few other things. Can see it here
