I'm stuck in Act 1 Merciless where monsters kill me before I can even heal up. This is my gear :

Spoiler

I lost all my portal scrolls and I can't really solo anything anymore. Is there something I have to upgrade first, or do I need to level up ? I'm lvl 50 and I could barely kill the necromancer in Fetid Pool...

Dude, your gear is pathetic for that difficulty. As i see, u dont even understand a logic of links in this game, try to buy 5L chest not good but i will be 5L for like 5 chaos. Also your weapons are insane.

Forget about the fetid pool. Side maps in later difficulties are much harder and you're level is so low. I don't even get how you managed to kill Dominus looking at your equip.

If you don't want to farm act3 cruel, try to rush till Ledge and start to farm there till 57~, if you're lucky enough you may drop something useful.

Yeah I finally found a party doing start of Act 1 and noticed the Fetid Pool is a lot harder than the rest afterwards. I felt sorry for my teammates during Dominus beacause I'm like a fraud, but it's only self found gear.

I'm at Ledge already and will farm. Where can I find weapons with good DPS ? I tried poeexplorer.com but people don't answer.

If you farm the Ledge till 59 you can try to get a pair of Siege Axes from the vendor ( white ), then you could spend a transmutation and some alterations till you get good modifiers ( % increase physical damage, local physical damage, % attack speed increase ).

Take a look at poe.xyz.is and contact users directly in game or just spam in trade chat. You have to be patient, first.

I should make a blender hc only topic...

I hate all this softcore talking lol

not sure what your experience with crafting blue weapons (for weapons blue will be enough if it has just >100% "increased physical" and some decent added physical damage or attack speed. But i have tried few times and you need loads of Alternation Orbs to get anything decent. I think you will be better of to try purchase a weapon.


@ Gekiro

Even something like this gives you 100 dps which is better for this build then your weapons.
Because of the build elemental damage on your weapons doesn't scale well with passives and its just a little addition to your DPS. You most important damage on weapon is that main damage. This also allows you to leech more health and mana as all Leech from gear only works with physical damage.

ANd i really love HC killing dominus with his bugged codding. You can kill him during his special moves( vaal lighint punch and ghost lighing machinegun attack) but the animation need to be played full and he still deals dmg even he is dead already............

Vaal Lighting punch seems not to give me any issues
His Ghost Lightning skill - just destroys me even with lightning flask up. No idea why. Is there a hidden mechanic to this skill or Lightning punch? The only think it can think of is that the further away you are the less damage it does ..

He doesn't need a 150% Inc.Physical DPS for getting an upgrade. The difference will be huge even with a low roll and spamming some alteration won't ruin his currency pool I suppose.

Of course, if we want to talk about how bad and expensive the crafting system is in this game, then trade >>>>>> craft in most cases or unless you're insanely lucky.

Can someone explain to me how cyclone with 4-5k dmg can be better that 18k dual strike with splash?


And new CWDT.
How about with Enfeeble, Decoy totem and something else ?

Ill work on the new CWDT tonight.

The tooltip DPS for cyclone is not accurate. My 14k Cyclone DPS kills piety much faster than my 60k Dual Strike.

EDIT: ohh op made a post, thanks :D

So now with the Cast when damage taken, what to do now?

i am a new startede player, and have no clue, running with the dual strike and multistrike/meele splash/meele physical damage. With hatred buff, leap and whriling blade... And the CwDT, but thats seems useless now.

What can i else do to survive, im a merciless act 3. What gems? and should i use the same build?
