TONS od choice =/ viable build!!!

in POE, you NEED to stack Life, resist armor/evasion/ES and you NEED a 5l or 6l for damage.

Wow... a lot of choice!!!

Try a new build without taking life/armor/evasion/ES/resist nods and tell me how far you can go.



Dude. Go look at the builds. Yes you have to create a balanced build in PoE. You need some life or ES nodes. That's nothing new.

So, you think that builds with 200-250% increased life and with just 0-100% increased damage (despite life node gives +8% life, and damage nodes gives +12% damage) can be called "balanced"?
NAH! In PoE passive tree you take stats that you cant take with gear. So simple. You can get resists with gear = most resist nodes will be avoided. You can get % damage with gear or gems = damage nodes will be mostly avoided. You cant get even close to enough %increased life or increased crit chance or %ES with gear? Then max them out in your build and have profit. Otherwise, you'll be handicapping yourself.

You can make a viable build without any nodes invested into damage. But you can never make a viable build without any nodes invested into life or ES.

Itemization is ok, as long as you are not trying to 6L something. You might as well just quit playing the game even before you start. I mean, yes, this should be hard, but not that retarded-random-hard. This has nothing to do with skill, challenge or even fun - this is pure frustration and annoyance.
Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance.
Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge.

You realize that if they create viable builds that only take damage then no one will use any other build... Taking half to all defense node choices is actually darn good game design.

Got to lvl ~70 on my summoner before I started taking defensive nodes. /smugface

Nice reasoning bro, at last I truly see.
GGG banning all political discussion shortly after getting acquired by China is a weird coincidence.
Well Diablo 3 has more fun stats, PoE you just aim for speed and flat on gloves, life/es and res on other parts lol. Jewelry is probably the most diverse item in PoE. Too many USELESS stats on PoE mods too, and I mean like utterly useless.. Who wants reduced requirements, stun recovery, thorns etc etc? All just there to dilute the mod pool, add no variety whatsoever.

What, pray tell, are the "more fun stats"?
