Finally started giving PoE an honest try this past friday night. Turning out to be a lot better than my initial 1hr attempt on Xbox led to me to believe, lol. Had been watching DansGaming for a few days prior, and I was impressed without GGG handled the loot chase by having so much variation in what you could do to progress your character (a bit overwhelming though). Picked out what I thought would be a noob friendly guide for first playthrough (Arc Totem), but it seems the guy who made it Zizarin(?) assumed I would be able to have a Tabula Rasa robe by lvl23 or so... and that seem impossible. Right?
At lvl44 right now, not having any issues clearing stuff (or course), though the Syndicate have blown me up a few times. Just feel that I am missing a LOT QoL info that would make going further easier and being better prepared for "endgame". Like should I be farming for certain items at this level? I'm still using a Lifesprig I got from the first use of the Blood Altar, and a pair of Wanderlust shoes I got really early on.
I do find it funny that up til I bought the 4l chest armor I have now, my character had beeing wearing no pants, but now he's been upgraded to wearing shorts. Progress!
