Anyone else bothered by an Alphas with something other than reduced mana in the only red slot?

I don't know if it is a new 1, but I saw 1 I had not come across tonight in 1 of Zana's maps named Warmonger, and he waz OUTRAGEOUS....
Kind of like a tougher Gravicious, with an retarded energy shield that was near impossible to get past, but he did the same attacks, so Grind Gear decided to put 2 of him guarding the objective.
Still, I finally killed them both, and completed it but *OUCH* O_o

I mean come on Grind Gear, the game is HARD enough without those things making it ridiculous!!

Double boss shipyard. Probably one of the easiest bosses in the game. You really might be undergeared.

Edit: just saw the post with your gear. Can't help you immafraid.

Wtf? This is a very weird arrangement of gems.


That is my set up....
I do melee splash with dual wield, and multishot.
As for the later post about putting reduced mana in the alpha's, I use the head to lower the cost of running multiple auras, so the alpha's IS reducing mana cost by default!!

WHY is there ALWAYS one of you in every thread??
You make it miserable to post anything because there's PoE MASTERS like you who feel they have to insult people in the forums.
I was NOT asking for your put downs, although I am certain that you are a complete loser who plays the game 18 hours a day, which I cannot do!!

P.S. If your really aren't a child then my apologies, but you ARE annoying, and your comments are totally useless to the thread. I mean at least have something to add to the discussion besides your immature remarks about how someone is not good enough at the game, in YOUR opinion...


If you are a better player than me, good for you, you WIN the Internets!!

In one of the most expensive items of the game, a 6L shav, I see...

Flicker strike
+Curse on Hit
+Mana Leech
+Added chaos damage
+Enfeeble
+Melee Splash

That's a complete waste.
You waste your 6L with some utility stuff, you waste your 6th gem with a 100% useless "Added chaos damage" gem, you waste the 5th slot with a Mana leech gem, overall you reduce your potential damage output by about 90%.

In what I suppose is your "main attack", I see...

Dualstrike
+Faster attacks
+Multistrike
+Melee Splash
+Reduced Mana!!!

Why is that RM gem not a Melee Damage gem?
Why is your main attack not in the 6L?
Why is a 6L Shavs player not using a better weapon than the mediocre Wings of Entropy?

Why is the reduced mana gem not in the red socket in your Alpha's Howl?
There's zero reason not to put it there.

???
Add "Reduced Mana" instead of this weird "Rejuv Totem" gem, and you reduce it even further.
Then add more auras.

What does Voll's Amulet do for you?
Yes, it is expensive. But that doesn't make it good for your build.
That amulet has very specific reasons to be powerful, but it doesn't look like you take advantage of them.

What does Shavs do for you?
Yes, it is expensive. But it is expensive because people do some crazy shit with it. You're not, as it seems.

What does Thief's Torment do for you?
Read its stats, is it any interesting for your build or could you replace it with some random rare?
You consider it strong enough to replace two ring slots? Why?

Overall, if this is your gear and you are playing with this setup, you have completly gimped yourself.
All this sweet gear gone to waste.

Of course you are getting trashed by random monsters.

Put some thoughts into your build.
Randomly aligning expensive uniques and skill gems is not very beneficial endgame.

I use the chest to have a Flicker Strike that puts Enfeeble on enemies, and as for the Mana Leech gem, I could do away with it, but I would have to find another green gem 2 replace it, as well as the lack of using a Reduced Mana in Alpha's, I am running 4 different auras, and they leave me with very little mana left to use my Dual Strike, which has a ton of modifiers increasing the cost of every swing, so I cut down the cost of each attack with Reduced Mana. As for the added chaos gem, I am using it to increase the single target damage of Flicker Strike, because running a melee build creates issues sometimes getting close to a pack of mobs, and I want to run around, and try to Flicker down some of them before running into the pack....

Also, I use Voll's amulet for the extra stats, strength, Intelligence, and the extra life, which I need, not for the charges.

As for the Thief's Torment, I keep it because there are very few ways to find mana on hit in the game, and I want to reduce the effect of curses on me, so yes it is useful to my set up.

I did not say that I was getting trashed by random monsters, I was referring to rogue exiles popping up out of nowhere, and certain bosses in maps that seem to be heavily overtuned recently!!

You're wearing 100+ex worth of gear and you're getting owned by trivial mobs like the shipyard boss. They are not overtuned. Your build sucks, simple as that. That's what you have to fix.

Maybe my suspicions are empty but it really smells like it.
Something is wrong here...
