ShakCentral’s Vortex Occultist: Beginner-Oriented | All Content | Budget | HC, SSF, & Console

Hey, I'm currently following the guide and I've reached A3. What I think could use some improvement would be a list of skills and links at the summary of each chapter, it's a bit messy atm and hard to follow. Other than that I'm having fun :)
Great guide! Thank you for writing this up. I will do my best to spread it around and start recommending it to new players.

I definitely agree with a previous comment that some more about fossils would be good in the gear section. In particular, IMO it's worth emphasising that if you're an ssf player dense fossils are pretty much the only sensible way to get really strong ES gear.
Have you done something awesome with [url=http://pathofexile.gamepedia.com/Sire_of_Shards]Sire of Shards[/url]? PM me and tell me all about it!

Thank you for the input! I've added a bit throughout Acts 1-3 to show how to link up Storm Brand as your main damage skill. Once you get to Act 3 and 4link country, just follow the Gem Link section for Vortex links :)

Oof. For future reference, damage over time doesn't reflect, so you can run reflect maps by dropping vortexes near packs and aggro-ing them into the dot radius.

Forgive me if this is a dumb question but I'm wondering why the OoS/Frostbomb/Storm Brand gem combo? I don't see any of them used on your Shaper kill video. And the idea of using all of them is kind of daunting lol
Nice work so far! Obviously still got lots of work ahead, but you'll get there if you keep at it. If I can give some advice, you should put the Videos and Pros/Cons right below Contents, that's usually what most people want to see first. The Gear section is also huge, which may discourage some people from reading it. Could try to condense all the information for each slot and put everything else seperately.

Also thanks for the shoutout, it's pretty cool to know that my work has inspired others :)

It's the man himself! Thanks for the input; it's extremely appreciated.

I've already changed the contents ordering a bit to find the right mix, and putting the quick hits at the top makes a ton of sense.

Definitely have dozens of hours of work ahead to improve that gear section, but like you said, I'll just keep plugging away at it and condensing whenever possible.

Thanks again!
