Outcome : Guess that makes me the Ubermaso lol

1x Y = u have a taste for pain, but it is not refined yet.
2x Y = ure on the right track.
3x y = the pain is starting to grow on u.
4x y = pain has become a second nature while u play.
5x y = ure endurance has grown to formidable lenght's and pain is like a fine consumable now.
6x y = Stop Hitting Ureself.
7x y = Pain has become a way of life, eating nails for breakfast have become a routine.

How did u score? 7x y :D

Yep.

B. Are u stil playing PoE with a melee char knowing that ranged is an easyer and faster option? Y/N

I am still playing melee. Ranged is easier, but not necessarily faster. A properly geared melee character gets insane clear speed. To put it like this = I will be running in the next room while you are still fumbling to recast your double totems at the door.

C. Are u playing a ranger melee? Y/N

No. There is no synergy between the ranger starting point and melee. None whatsoever.

D. Are u playing non-coockie cutter builds with ure melee char? Y/N

Almost every build can get cookie cutter status if you put enough play time in it. You can still eventually out-gear and out-level the content by a lot.

E. Do u keep refusing to make a ranged char after every dead? Y/N

I've played some ranged builds. Not fun for me. I just rerolled a multistriker HS/GS marauder in Onslaught.

F. Do u stil enjoy playing after checking Y on A/B/C/D/E?

Ofc I enjoy.

G. Do you play low life melee build? Y/N

If I have a shavrone's one day I would play low life melee. The attack speed bonus you can get from low life blood rage is just absurd.

I win this thread

Final score:
over 9000x y = I sell my gear after each level. I drink castor oil each morning. I eat a kilo of rocks each day. I do pushups until my arms start bleeding.
