Is Hardcore Rigged?

If you could post a Path of Building link to your build, which you can still import from Standard, we may be able to offer you some advice. I do have a couple observations:

* You don't "focus" on Elemental Resistances. You cap them or you die. If you mean you take bonuses to maximum Resistances, that's probably better for Marauders taking Soul of Steel or Aura-stacking Templars, not Witches, and isn't really much of a defensive strategy by itself.
* If you mean Energy Shield, as opposed to the type of shield you block with, are you dealing with Chaos damage? It bypasses Energy Shield to hit your Life directly; you'll know if this is happening if your Life starts dropping even though you still have ES left.

And while it's good to build your own build eventually, you really need to play well-tested builds for a while until you have a grasp on what you can do and what the game expects from you. I'd also suggest playing softcore so that you can learn from your mistakes without having to start over every time you make one.

what can I say the skill tree has elemental resistance plus gear and i have been working on capping them I know how this works plus the point of builds that are out there are for clearing maps fast with the set gear ......if u read my post u will know that I don't want to follow others build I have already got the info of most of them even meta builds .and all I asked is if anyone has proof that its possible to get to lv 70 if possible 100 without spending a dime on PoE that's all.. plus I play HC for fun but I know that staying alive ist wats important in HC

Are you actually saying that spending money on the game correlates to survival rates on HC? lol, that gave me a good chuckle. Sounds like you just need to get better and is salty about it.
lol not salty but how much have u spend on PoE if u tell me u got to from 0 to lv 100 without spending a dime....in HC then kudos for u but if not then lol yeah ..plus I only play HC I left my lv 66 witch in standard to remind me no not play standard never lol

I don't see how buying extra stash tabs would have any relation to getting killed by mobs in the game?

If you're relatively new to the game then playing HC is going to be painful unless you really like acts 1-10 a lot. There's a lot of stuff that can kill you quickly and the only way to avoid those deaths is through experience (and having a good build).
ok, I will tell u a secret in free to play online games out there with no subscription there are many ways to force ppl to buy or spend money on the game if u want to enjoy it to the fullest and if u can understand then don't listen to my delusions. I can say that with over 300 hrs am relatively new but not to HC plus I know the mechanics of the game.

Having looked at your characters' gear and builds, I can confirm that you in fact don't know the mechanics of the game.

Honestly why did you make this topic in the first place? You say you know the mechanics and that the game is rigged when the fact that you died to a monster 10 levels below proves clear as day that you DON'T know the mechanics but you go and insult anyone who tries to tell you that.

Is this just for trolling are you really so selfconceited that you can't see the obvious fact here? Yeah there are paywalls in other games, POE isn't one of them though. If you can't even complete the story without dying it's your fault, either your build is bad or you are taking too many risks during playing.

It's nice that you don't want to play other peoples builds, i also prefer to do my own thing. But making your own build in this game requires far more experience and knowledge than you seem to have. So trying to make your own build in hardcore isn't going to be easy, it will be painful as hell. If you wanna go through with it, go ahead. But expect to rip another 10 chars before you even reach maps. Alternatively, use a guide for your next char to prove yourself wrong and maybe learn a thing or 2 about making a build, your choice.

Every sentence you write is filled with ignorance and grammatical errors. Level 70 is not end game and no level 70 character besides twinks have end game gear. We see your characters. I've seen your characters. Furthermore we can see your botched passive skill trees.

Making your own builds is great. I do so myself. But, that requires game knowledge, critical thinking, and creativity. Sadly you are 0/3.

Stay in school and go read a guide.
