I mean its one thing to say you dont like the game. I mean I get it, not every game is for every player, but to say some shit like they dont know what they are doing? Come on man.

Guess time will tell. My theory is that by the time they put tota and swords in the game it'll be 2x as complicated as current day POE with a shittier atlas and less build variety.

Trust me I hope I'm wrong.

This might be the easiest league starter. Ive been watching this dude off and on for a while now to fall asleep and he says this class with this setup is the easiest and fastest to do campaign into early maps. Huge clear, huge boss dmg, relatively safe, butt a bit squishy. reason I say safe is after act one youre basically clearing entire screens by freezing and shattering which is OP.

This dude is a racer and pretty much does campaign runs several times a day for 10+ hours a day so I think its safe to say he knows WTF is up when it comes to builds and doing campaign runs. Huge caveat is of course if they dont change anything about any of the skills with 0.5 patch. which they shouldn't but you never know.

I mean, you will never hit those times, shit even 2x his times, but what you do want is something that does not take huge weapons and huge RNG to get going. You want something that starts cheap, is powerful even with shit gear and scales with it well if you do get lucky.


Video is for members only but will be free at some point, lol.

Here is the twitch version where hes voicing over his run. Step by step how to set it all up.



I know this is along ass watch but he goes over zone by zone what to look for, what some of the layouts are, what level you should be at, and general tips and tricks to make your runs faster. I mean, the dude is a racer which as won several POE2 GGG races so he knows his shit.

Yeah I've been watching some of his runs he has interesting stuff on his youtube for every class, and some multiple of them(he has minion witch and plants witch for example). He's not done running everything yet though, currently only has witch, sorc(vashtra), merc grenades, huntress twister(currently still member only but should be public tomorrow or so), wyvern druid and ice shot ranger, so mostly missing monk and warrior but warrior there's other speedrunners doing a lot of runs.

His disciple of vashtra run has commentary too until like act IV where he notices he's been going so fast he might actually have a world record so he goes a bit more serious. Although this recent twister build apparently beat his own record but I think if he did a pure speedrun vashtra he might have been similar times, he fucked around a bit answering twitch chat questions and what not.

Another youtube channel that has a bunch of leveling runs is Tuadh he does lvl 1 to tier15 instead so the videos are longer but that means you see early mapping and stuff too, granted that's gonna change.

Is progression still tied to that retarded can't get hit random trap maze? If so may just make a summoner build.
Yes to an extent, first trial is Sekhemas which is like Sanctum with the Honor second hp bar shit, but enemies barely do any damage/you don't have to kill anything, and traps also barely do any damage so it's pretty easy(it's been nerfed I think?). Second trial is the Ultimatum based one, and then 3rd and 4th you can just choose which one you want to do so you only have to do the trap one once and it's the easiest level one.

Edit: Apparently you can do only Ultimatum now even for the early ones I'm reading, but you need to drop a spawn item for it. Basically you can do 4x Trial of Chaos if you want and never do the Sekhemas one, but you'll have to ascend later as a result. Tbh the first tier is really so easy I wouldn't bother even if you hate it, it takes like 10mins and it's really hard to fail unless you're very bad at dodging anything.

Cool, and yeah the first one was fairly easy but the last few points were a bitch.
