    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    I bet some of these shitty terrorist groups are debating about taking credit right now, even if they had no part in it. To some extent it is probably 'good pr' in their circles. I expect there finishing up a draft to send over to Al Jazeera soon

    Boston Marathon Explosion - Today's Topics: Public Schools

    Historically how long has al Qaeda waited before claiming ownership of a terrorist event? I haven't heard of anything yet. I wonder if this is the work of some local crazies. 30+ people have lost limbs now I am hearing

    The trading systrm is a pain to use and very inconvenient. That's what makes it so interesting. I don't have the time or interest to optimize my purchases/ sales, but that doesn't really bother me either. Its interesting to see people theory craft the economy this game creates, as there is no...

    there's definitely a lot of overlap in the games. the economy and the customization of your character's skills and abilities really set them apart and poe is much deeper in that regard.

    only good xp post 72 or so is maps. just join pugs, focus on staying alive and you should get xp pretty fast.

    I actually forgot to mention, i did get a wondertrap for like 1 alch lol, and it works great - i think ive easily doubled the number of rare drops. Hvaent seen a unique yet but rng too unpredictable to assess that just yet. Lots of awesome perks to a low health build so far. That is actually...

    So i've specced out of CI, put on my shavronne's and switched to a low health pain-attunement build. I think these are still not that common right now. But I am loving my dps. Pretty entertaining when a couple fire traps crit and wipe out an entire blue pack on a 6person map, while the rest of...

    Don't sell it omg. It's not worth selling rare, good uniques, you never know when you might want to use one in the future . I'm not using my 5L Es chest which is close to 300es if that's enough for you now. I also have a 216 Es helm and some other es gear. Hit me up in game. Don't sell...

    For those of you that don't play softcore - if you have a char that dies with good gear, I can keep it warm for you!

    Im also finding it a pain to find gear. If anyone sees a 5L searing touch for sale I will trade my (6s) searing touch staff as well as a 5L 300 ES chest in exchange. Likewise if you donate a fusing and I manage to 5L it, you get the 5L ES chest plus I'll throw in 3gcp. After blowing 50? Odd...

    So i just found this on the poe forums posted by a developer - "There is a currency drop penalty, but levels areas over level 63 are treated as level 63. The specific penalty is reduced currency drops of 2.5% per level, with a 2 level buffer. So, this penalty will not affect high level...

    Anyone know the details on how the loot drop penalty works? I've read the penalty is only for currency. And based on being level 77 I expected there to be a penalty for docks and city of sarn but i am told that there isn't? Anyone have an idea?

    As someone who kills most of their enemies by Burn, I hope they have an ETA on when they will fix iiq/iir gems to work with burn. I could run with both gems when I am farming zones but they are so ineffective for most of my kills. Also - anyone have an approximation on what rares will sell...

    Tuco I have a 15 qua fp gem I don't really use just msg me in game for it, just dont sell it and give back when you're done or playing another build. Add /kazoraa in game. Hateyou I'm almost 78 krassus is around that as well but not sure if he still plays, haven't seen him on in weeks.

    You just let me know when you're ready to do the trade and I'll be happy to give you a 4L for astramentis! Thanks venjik for that list. It's hard for me to figure out when a rare I get will sell well or not. I've probably vendored countless rares worth atleast an alch, a few probably worth a...

    Btw - if you run across one of those large chests on a map, can you portal out, put on a buncha iir/iiq gear and come back, and have the chest be affected? I've been trying that a while and haven't noticed a diff but my iir may not be good enough

    There are more ways that it's different. The gem system for skills, the way it's tied to your items, the flexibility it produces, and also the frustration sometimes because setting things up the way you want can be socket/fuse dependent since youre at the mercy of the rng. But it's all a very...

    Ok so what's the cheapest build that can handle and reasonably balance with a 660ti or better? I am not averse to radeon as long as it is 660ti or better. Also I have a small space about 15 x 15inch, wife doesnt want pc visible, so needs to be sff. Budget of 600$ can make this happen?
