What order to go in
" Hey thanks for the reply, is my understanding correct that people have one class good at mapping to get everything out of that and also to get items to create a boss character and such. And do starter characters also become mappers, to prepare for your next character that is designed for sth else? |
|
" If you're playing 1-2 hours a day and it's your first time on POE, you will most likely only have time for one character during this league. So forget about end game bosses. You will need to learn th game first. It takes a good 20 hours at least for experienced players to hit end game and probably over 50+ or more for novices.. and to be frank most people don't even reach end game (I'm talking end game like the major bosses eg A8/9, Sirus) You don't have time for multiple characters. Pick something that looks cool and is cheap. You will learn heaps as you play. | |

youre definitely overplanning a lot.
If you just started just PLAY the game like the others said. Dont worry about content specific characters yet... play the game and learn the basics. Usually all characters can do everything, just not as good as specific boss killers for example. | |
" Some characters are good at fast mapping, while other characters are good at bossing. Once you really get your gear going, good builds can do both things well. "League starter builds" are usually builds that can do 'most' content on a relatively low budget. These can eventually be geared to do everything, but their goal is to rush through the acts, and fill out your Atlas while making some currency/saving some currency for othere builds that require some investment. But as others have said; just start playing. Choose yourself a typical "league starter build" and try the game out. Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.

" Can u give me a rough estimate on how long it takes an experienced player to farm on a starter character before they have enough currency to trade for a new characters gear to start using that character for further progression. |
|
" Thats great advice, i'll definetely check out a good starter build to begin and learn the game while i fill out the atlas. With 1-2 hours to play if u wanted to go as far as possible would u try to gear up the starter and focus on it or build up currency for 1 other character whose build will get things done notably quicker than the starter one could. |
|
" I'm more of an "one character per league player", so I usually play whatever I want to play, and usually do most content. Now, if I were you, I would go for a "starter" build that can be scaled to do all content. That is a build that is pretty cheap to get going, but at the same time a build you can throw some investment into to do everything. At 1-2 hours a day, I think one character is the way to go. Sometimes, just sometimes, you should really consider adapting to the world, instead of demanding that the world adapts to you.
| |
" Every class can mapping. You will be in maps of different tiers the most time, farming currency, bosses and items. If your build can beat the story, you can map with it. The higher tier maps are more difficult ofc, so you need better gear or a better build. But just start the game and enjoy it, see how far you come and if you hit a wall ask again. | |
" 1. Need alot more time. 2. PoE is all about knowledge. No way you can learn it from the first try to hit endgame in short terms. No legit way, I mean. 3. Have I mentioned it too time consuming yet? | |

Dude, what are you talking (or better) writing about?
You practical questioning us to tell you what is the most efficient way to "play a game", for a given time? A game that you not even play yet? Let me tell you how it goes step 1: downloaded it step 2: log in step 3: PLAY step 4: love it? ask questions step 5: hate it? unistall and do something else with your time. It's a game, is for fun, and even if you are some sort of a streamer that want to add some content to your stream, you are having a very wrong approach.
