    A++ post, I think I'm going to try focusing on labs, I really enjoyed them, but I also really want to try out maps.

    GoT - Is Over, Post Your Drogon Sightings

    I don't read this thread anymore but just came here to say basically what you did, last episode was amazing. The scene with Jamie riding charging on his horse and Bronn bewildered in the battle was perfect.

    Yeah I'm a little apprehensive about selling, because it seemed like everyone I bought from was just sitting around their home-base waiting for people to pop in to wordlessly buy their shit. I'm hoping I can offload my goods quickly or find a way to sell without interrupting actually playing the...

    What are some good, non-obvious tips for generating wealth for someone who is just going to be able to play casually? Obviously kill speed is king and creation of good maps is important, but is there some technique used to get better drops other than that?

    Finishing buying a full set of starter gear last night, am super pumped to start running maps this weekend. I quit early on in 2013 because trading was cumbersome, but it's all streamlined so much that now I can spend my time grinding.

    @Kiroy you werent bullshitting about how much easier it is to trade now vs in 2013. At least it is as a buyer.

    Oh and I think you fucked me on your Oak recommendation for bandits. Nobody is going Oak for frost blades! I should've done Alira or passives.

    Beat Kitava last night, was easier than I had hoped. I'll probably clear merciless lab first, but now I need to go on a shopping spree. I'm a bit lost on how to figure out what to buy, and I quit in 2013 because trading was too time consuming but it seems a "lot" easier now by using poe.trade...

    I remember the shit Maxis shoveled over Sim City having advanced engine features that were only possible through "the cloud". Then we get a map the size of a city block, lol.

    Why in God's name would you think any CPU capable of running the graphics engine they use (regardless of GPU) wouldn't be able to process that? The processing on the CPU for pathing and shadows is orders of magnitude more than whatever simple decision tree they use to calc orc stats. Anytime...

    I haven't been playing PoE for long, but being worried about a multi-key bind getting you banned is like being worried about your bank suing you because you didn't dot the i and cross the t on the check you just cashed, all while people are literally robbing the bank without being prosecuted.

    So I got a Doedre's Elixir, a Silver flask and a Sulpher flask. As I acquired them I got good at using them, but as I got more abilities I just switched to spamming them. Between those three flasks and my three buff/debuff spells (ancestral protector, frost bomb, frost-bite infused orb of...

    I don't really understand the ranked fighting, but I think it sounds cool if it's implemented well. I still don't care about the loot crates or whatever as long as I can earn the shit ingame without too much trouble. Without reading much about that mode or this game in general, I think it'd be...

    Yeah I can't quite remember how easy it was to level in 2013 but it seems like, 5x easier now. I think there are level 94? people and it's only been a few days.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    You could publish a procedurally-generated RPG that requires a man to come to my house and cuck me with my wife and I'll still pre-order it. I love procedurally generated RPGs that much. The only purchasing debate is whether the founders pack comes with a bigger or a smaller dick.

    Middle-earth: Shadow of War (Shadow of Mordor Sequel)

    Agreed. This isn't a good comparison because it's a mobile game, but I remember when Fallout Shelter made it so that you needed to use microtransactions to get the best loot, because they removed the ability to get top-tier loot from the game mechanics. I'll still day 1 purchase this because I...

    Got up to 60 or 50 something, almost done with act 8. The game started to get hard and was pretty enjoyable where I got one-shot everytime I screwed up, but then I shored up my resist gear and spent a few points in some life nodes and now it's pretty easy, but not quite faceroll level. I think I...

    It was weird, I felt almost super-human the first month of keto, where I was faster, had a better memory, was super alert etc. Now I feel "normal" or maybe my sense of vitality has just normalized. I was never on the typical keto macros though, I always had much, much more protein.

    I have no idea what GGG does, but I'm guessing they rent out with a server group somewhere and they wouldn't give them cheap rates on installing all the PoE bullshit on some servers for a couple weeks.

    Yeah glass cannon + high risk/high clear speed + using movement to avoid stuff instead of character-sustainability is the only way I can play these games without getting bored. I don't know if the phrase is used differently in PoE, but that's what I'm trying to say when I say "high skill cap...

    These two posts being next to each other is funny and conflicting. Is it generally true that builds can generally change their skillcap by investing in life/survivability vs damage?

    Next annoying noob question: Since I'm ditching my amazing witch, what's a good build for 3.0 that: 1. Has a high skillcap 2. Has high mobility and damage 3. Plays reasonably well solo or in groups 4. Doesn't require too much specific gearsets. 5. Doesn't use the witch as a base?
