Why are so many buils behind a paywall?
" dual strike is probably the highest dps skill in the game, do you think the problem might be that you dont rly know what youre talking about? " maybe time to reconsider what your vendoring tbh mate :D I think the op just wants to moan, nothing said will change his mind because he wants what he says to be true and will find a reason to keep insisting its true regardless. He doesnt even have a character high enough level to do maps yet apparently hes an expert in what the most efficient endgame builds are and what is fun in endgame... hes never played endgame but he knows guys, he knows everything there is to know.. ya ok mate. its a gameplay help forum, he doesnt want help, wants to vent regardless of whats hes venting about being true or not, theres nothing you can say to someone like that, there really isnt. I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :) Last edited by Snorkle_uk#0761 on Feb 21, 2015, 6:10:01 AM

" I don't sell anything and very rarely make a CI char. But, I guess I could give stuff like that away. " /thread |

" This thread is about my taste, so I can definitely say "NU-HUH". NU-HUH ALL THE WAY " If you hit 50% more due to larger AOE with Cyclone / SS clearing packs is much faster. Killsped != DPS. " Because I only play in temp leagues and stopped playing because I got bored? You really aren't the brightest, I guess? I have the 75lvl achievement (that's why I don't really care about higher maps, grinding to lvl doesn't matter for me when I reach 75, I just start a new character). Make

I used to stop at level 70-ish too, but this league I realized that above level 70 is like a whole new game almost as far as planning and implementing a build. Well of course that depends on build also.

" you dont clear faster with cyclone or ss, cyclone is great but it doesnt have a bigger aoe than dualstrike splash, ss does but its an over rated skill, it needs that aoe because it does way less damage. Cyclone is probably as fast as ds. I reach 75 on day 2 of a character, because I know about clear speed and the game in general. If you reroll at 75 why do you even care about clearspeed or being optimal? you can hit 75 without ever running a map and you can hit it in 2 days with about 90% of skills in the game and need no specialist uniques to do it. Rerolling at 75 negates any concern you have about whats viable and using blah blah uniques, youd only use them for about 3 hours before you reroll anyway. If you arnt finding endgame gear, theres a reason, because you dont play endgame, so this entire thread is pretty much irrelevant. Endgame builds dont even apply to you all you do is play pre-endgame content. At level 74 you get 98% experience from a lvl66 map, you get 100% experience in the catacombs zone in act3, you dont even need to run a map to get to 75 without ever incurring an xp penalty. Dont see what temp leagues has to do with anything. 75-76 takes what? Less than an hour probably? I think you got time to do that in a 4 month league, just saying. Theres nothing wrong with rerolling at 75, if thats your bag go for it mate, Im not hating on it at all power to you my friend play the game the way you want to play it, but it does make this whole thread sort of meaningless. The best unique possible for getting a char 1-75 is a goldrim hat. Im not sure why I bothered typing all that, gonna take my own advice and leave it there tbh. " :D my bad backwoods didnt realise u were on that self found tip, by all means vendor em then mate, i was only playing anyway, you know me Im just being goofy. I love all you people on the forums, we can disagree but still be friends and respect each other :)

" No worries, i took no offense. I am only half ass self found. I don't sell anything, but If I want something I will buy it ;) |

" Sure you can go Darth Vader style and just use the same gem on every leveling char. I would get so bored that I rather quit PoE than doing so. Also, not everyone can play 24/7, I can barely play 3 hours a day without the weekends because I have obligations. " Who says I would still reroll when I would have a build that's more interesting than Arc/Dual Strike/Ground Slam? Also, mapping is a fucking madness when you are lvl 75 and only low lvl maps drop ..... I can't take that shit, when I play I want to have fun, not facerolling shitload of low maps for RNGesus "PLEASE PLEASE DROP A HIGHER MAP". If a build is interesting I play it further, 90+% builds just annoy me, nothing I haven't seen in Diablo / Nox / Hellgate:London / Sacred. Nothing new. Boring.

" I never use leveling builds but rather use a skill as early as possible. Especially in softcore i find it to be much more fun to develop my build as i go instead of using leveling skills or build switches at predetermined points. " It takes about 15-20h to kill Merc Dominus for an experienced player when playing fast but still rather casual. By that i mean doing all the important sidequests but going straight from A to B otherwise, which will keep you around zone level for most of the time and a bit underleveled in Merciless. I usually kill Dominus around lvl 62-63 in softcore and 67-70 in hardcore and then start mapping. At that level you get roughly 50% of a level in a single 66 map for a time investment of 10-20 minutes depending on your build and the map mods. This means that even if you can only play ~3h/d due to school or work, it will take you about a week to get to endgame. If you only care about getting to lvl 75-80 then a 2h sword build is among the fastest to do that. Additionally, a 440 pDpS Doomsower will only cost you 1-2c to buy and provides a ton of endgame DpS and other goodies like increased AoE and additional fire damage. Run Static Strike + Melee Phys + Added Fire + Weapon Ele (+ Faster Attacks or Multistrike if you eventually make it a 5L) and kill almost anything with a single attack. I made a 2H sword Marauder build in Rampage and even without Doomsower or Static Strike and only two 4l setups (Cleave and Double Strike), i blazed through any content and got to 85 in no time. It was a very tanky build but still got ~25k DpS with only a 4L and a few chaos in gear. There are countless good builds that require no or very little trading (mostly self found plus buying a few items in the price range of up to 5c via poe.trade) and if you tell us more specifically what you want to do then i am sure that many here could make you a good build around it in a few minutes. If, however, you feel inadequate whenever someone in a party has a bigger and more shiny stick or can carry harder DpS wise and just write here to vent your frustration, then this thread might as well be closed or moved since that is not what this forum section is for. 11.02.2013 - 11.02.2017: four year PoE anniversary!

You want it to rain shavs? No way, cope with the game the best you can or stop playing but this is nonsense QQ, and it is in the wrong subforum.
