    I wish more people explaining POE were like this guy. I FINALLY got something I understood. People learn by different means. I need DETAILS.. specific DETAILS. Of the many videos I have seen, this one was super great on the basics.

      Absolutely. At this point I've watched somewhere around 15 "basic tips/beginner guide" videos and every single one of them was a bunch of incomprehensible gobbledegook. And keep in mind that I already was something like lvl 15 when I watched first of them. But still I wasn't capable to unserstand what the fuck are all of them talking about. Because all those people have completely lost their comprehension of what it means to be a noob in this game a loooooooong time ago. Their conributions in this matter are absolutely pointless. And this guy did everything right. Finally i found someone with a common sense.

      Honestly, the first point is a big timewaste.
      Not following guides leads to a miserable life because the game is designed to follow guides.
      Thing is, in late game, you hit a brick wall where multiple things "are just expected" like ailment immunity, dealing with DOT's. 6 links. Enchants, flasks, dps, secondary defensive layers like increasing res cap, block, ward, etc. So if you "play for fun", you might find yourself struggling for YEARS for absolutely no reason. The most frustrating shit is weighted mods. Yeah like who doesn't enjoy grindin the game for 5 hours, trade for 10 hours, get the "currency" required for the "craft" and still not getting the desired outcome with a straight up junk item?
      Oh and the game does an absolutely shit job of telling you about mechanics so a guide is ALMOST ALWAYS the best route. This is a game which desperately NEEDS a death log for the last 2-3 seconds but devs will make all kinds of excuses to not provide that.
      Overall, if anyone is reading this, the game is NOT for a 9-5 Andy. It's for a "professional nolifer" who spends atleast 4-6 hours DAILY. If you want to enter the realm of self hatred, self loathing, by all means, it's a very good game to get depressed and feel hopeless. If you don't want to enter that specific rabbit hole named "POE", I suggest you turn back now and ignore all the bullshit the content creators say on how "good" this game is because it's not.
      Think if it this way, this "game" will demand more than your pet, your job, your girlfriend/boyfriend/husband/wife or even your boss AND all of this combined will EVER "demand" of you and it's designed that way to "demand" your time and to "deny" players simple QOL to speed things up. It's worse than getting a masters degree.

      @Saltylenses 6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The rule of thumb for anyone to remember is the value a gaming experience brings you, thats subjective to each person because of play time (when you can play, how long you can play for) and your attacking style (YOLO vs calculated) To his point, just jump in and play, its way more stimulating and you will become a lifer once you try everything on, try all the skills, progress and then see why that wont work. What he's saying makes sense, worry about that stuff later because in general as he will discuss with leagues its a timed experiende meaning after 3months your character moves to the standard league, essetnailly a retirment home server where all gear and players go to after a league ends, so you can restart a new league with a ton of learned expeirence and enjoy havign fun instead of steessing over a build and realizing you're broke and cant afford anything

    I've got about 265 hours in this game. I wish I started with this mindset. Just now I feel like I'm actually understanding what's going on. A few leagues ago I decided to do a "blind build" with no PoB.
    All I knew was I wanted to make two handed swords work. Ended up with a cyclone and impale Gladiator. Took it all the way to tier 10 maps which was further than i had gone before.

    Downloaded PoE yesterday. Was looking for an introduction. Played your video. Professional, funny, concise and clear. With this one video, you gave me all I needed to decide if this was the game I wanted to play, being very sad of how much Diablo IV beta was way too easy (like the third, in fact). Thanks a lot. Great job all over the board.

    • @robosing225
      @robosing225 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      The one thing I don't like about PoE is how many hours you have to dump on anything rewarding. Going two routes: #1. Spend hours and hours running maps for useless loot till you find a better stat for your gear maybe. #2. Spend hours and hours and hours collecting minor currency to trade for bigger currency to maybe, if enough hours and days are spent collecting, trade on the market for ONE piece of armor or weapon. Then you have to do _that_ ALL over again for the next piece of gear. THEN, after 3 months is up, it all gets moved over into standard which no one plays or cares since it's not current league content. So you are forced to repeat EVERYTHING all over for the next league. Yes it's to even out the market playing field and give everyone equal grounds to gear up. But it's not scaled to keep newbies interested and engaged. It's like throwing a wench in a cog wheel each time you want to progress.
      No matter what you do, even if you want to craft your own 6 socket weapon, that would take x1500 Orbs of Fusing to guarantee ONE piece! Yes it's something you can work towards, but the sheer cost of everything is ridiculous. Even if you trade for it, the cost of asking price is also ridiculously time consuming. It's meant to keep you grinding for 3 months minimum till next league starts then that character technically becomes obsolete, so-to-speak. All for what? What's the fun if all your time is spent farming or trading for gear, and have barely any time for end-game content.
      I'm just saying, I wish there was a better system of craft or focus to keep players working towards something personal and enjoyable. To deal with SUCH low drop rates, such low percentages, making basic, BASIC build needs SUPER rare and hard to come by for the average player who has a job and life outside of video games.
      I spent hours trying to get 5 Chromatic Orbs to drop during random encounters. And if you want to craft a 4 socket piece of gear, it costs x100 or more Chromatic Orbs just to CRAFT 4 sockets on one piece of gear you might not even like. So trade, but even then the asking price for stacks are ALSO insane.
      Gaming is to waste time I get it. But I want to enjoy myself and not constantly running into brick walls, stopping the drip-fed fun throttled by this game which doesn't even give you any good cosmetic pieces you may see others have. Instead, You can just pay real money for it. There was a "bundle" on sale for $400 usd for some random in-game stuff, gear, loot and whatnot. 400! Regular cosmetic skins run people around 10-15-30 bucks a pop. Forget creating a system where the player can work towards cool cosmetic gear. Just pay us.

      @@waldemarwalo Yup. Put in a couple of hours. Love the simple upgrades one can make on ordinary weapons. I kept the same wooden weapon from lvl 2 to 13 by just adding and transforming it. Skill three is great. Quest are too simple for me (dungeon crawling with no other possible outcome than killing a boss and receiving another quest), but it's because I love a story where your choices change the story. Still 100% better than Diablo III. I will continue to play from time to time :)

    Thanks for this video, man. I dipped my toes into PoE a while back but got side-tracked with other games and wasn't sure I would be coming back. I was a huge Grim Dawn fan so character building/theory crafting is my shit, and I know this game is KING in that. Because of this video I am jumping right back in now and will be following you consistently from here on out. I think sometimes in games (especially these types of games) we forget that this is meant to be FUN, first and foremost.

    After the latest patch in D4, I was looking into this. I am still not 100% sold, but thanks to this guide you have, it's made it easier to understand the game. I hope PoE 2 will be more intuitive in terms of the UI etc... I like the new roll mechanic in PoE 2. I can't believe in D4, they have a cooldown for that.
    However, I will be giving this a run over the next few days and hopefully I get to grips with it. Thanks for this video, it helped alot! Even just to make the game seem less daunting...

    I just started playing a week ago. I saw that skill tree and couldn’t wait to dig in. As a D4 player, seeing so many build options and opportunities is magical. I started out just shrugging and picking a bit randomly on the tree, but as I’ve found better gear and skills I’ve started to be more selective in what a pick, moving toward an ice witch with minions. We’ll see how far that takes me. But I’m having so much fun just figuring it all out along the way 😉 Great tips and advice

      @@BeastoGG Yeah, the same thing happened to me when I started. Which sucks because it's a great game, but it's one of those games where you really have to just sit down and take your time to experiment with different things and figure out what build/strategies work best for you and your playstyle and that's really hard to do when you're busy with adulting lol

    Thanks for all the useful and well tought and spoken information. I played POE a bit, like 5 years ago, and really liked it but then life made it so i stopped playing. Now i want to start (im really new. I was only at act 3 i think) again and in all that complexity you managed to make it looks simple and easy. Your way of approching things with the fun factor is really invigorating and you made me (and others im sure) want to play it.
    Subscribe right away and im gonna go check if you have other beginner tips and tricks while the game is intalling.
    Cheers

    Thanks for giving this guide. I just started this game with the mindset you do not recommend (min/max, perfect build) and I got overwhelmed at first. Someone saying ‘ just go ahead, have fun and see what skills you like’, is somehow so liberating that I give PoE another chance!

    Thanks for this guide. I dropped PoE after the Excavation-Event and played a ranger with mainly shield-gems. A few days ago I logged into PoE and mostly all my passives were reset that was a huge turn off moment... alt + F4 it was. But after watching this vid I took my time and finished the build again after I checked on the gems and what I was playing. So far it is a pretty nice build tanky and the damage is ok. I think with better gear I can get more out of it. Right now I am at act 7 and I am curious how well it goes when I finish the main story.

    Thank you. Lots of other videos and such going into details as well. Only issue is they say "for beginners" but use a lot of jargon that's too advanced just yet to explain something simple(and they don't explain what that jargon meant lol). It's good to find content that's actually new player friendly. Just started recently and I'm digging it. Thank you for filling in the blanks.

    nice guide! I wish I started watching this before starting. About 15h into the scion now (which I used immediately after unlocking), and have hit a wall where I kept switching skills/builds every few hours (somehow went from a dex/str build to a full int build and wanting to go back) but I used up all my currency stuff.
    I thought of restart with a new character and trying again, but due to sunk cost and fear of running into the same problem again, I haven't ended up playing for about a month now

    Here's my tip. Make your first character, don't do any research, and wing it. Your first character will fail miserably, and that's ok. You're gonna get some cool skills and be like wow I wanna build around this now. Your second character will be way better than your first. You know the basics, the second playthrough will be easy.
    Eventually, you'll get bored of that character or inspired to make another. That character will be better than your last, and the process repeats. You'll get better every time. You don't need the endgame build with instructions. Find something cool and go for it. You would be bored anyways.
