You didn't talk about life regen! I just built a character around life regen, even though i've been advised against it, and really like it. I haven't really heard anyone go in depth about the pros and cons of it. If you could, would you please tell me some pros and cons? Awesome video, though, thank you!
The damage reduction formula for armour is incorrect. There should be no parantheses. It is also worth noting that evasion based characters can also count on monsters missing. No lucky hit streaks from monsters either :).
Isn't a dagger dual wield build considered physical damage build? Rather then a spell damage build? Please clarify because I kinda went for the physical style...
I have trouble understanding the stat caps (except elemental resistances). Where can I see if I have hit for example the cap for evasion? Is it the estimated chance to evade attacks?
Yes, the character defense tab will show you this. There are not clear caps, as there are with resistances as you cannot "overcap" these. It is just a value that has to be known. Evasion, for example, is 95% cap. The wiki has the correct numbers for all offensive and defensive caps.
Maybe I'm wrong, but I think you didn't mentioned the Life per Second from some equipments. I'm here because I'm a beginner, so if this is irrelevant on the end game, please don't consider it. :D Thank you for your work, it's very helpful!
If you dont have fortify on a main skill. Reckoning etc if you have block chance or something else if u dont. Linked with fortify and power charge on crit is a defensive and offensive thing. also line CWDT with Steelskin+decoy totem to divert dmg away from you INSTANTLY. Even if you panic and forget. Super important hc things. which is the interesting way to play poe. Also a mind over matter build without phasing = YOU ARE FUCKED if you take a ton of dmg.
I was hoping to find the formula for ES calculation, say an item has a base energy shield, two affixes with +maximum energy shield and % increased energy shield.
Sure thats easy to figure out: To find the total ES on an item: Item ES = ((Innate ES + to Maximum ES) * (Local Increased ES)) To find the total ES on your character: Total ES = Sum(Item ES's) * Sum(Increased Maximum ES's)
+Oskar Kowlaczuk Hey thats what its all about, watch what you need when you need it! Playing the game alongside helps you see the information in action.
I'am 24lvl now as Witch with zombies and stuff and getting through the game with ease. I remember that few years ago I stuck in second act somewhere but now I feel that nothing can stop me. I didn't even use a single bottle of mana and once or twice for health :d
Can't wait for cruel level, will need to take care of my resistances. I guess it's similar to Diablo 2 that without good resists you will die really quick.
the labyrinth music u have is the best soundtrack from the game. Thanks so much for this informative video. I'm new and this helps so much
Wow, it became much more fun with all this "beginner" knowledge. Gonna make my own build from scratch next time.
Please note that Fortify does not apply to damage over time, since it's damage reduction from hits not all damage

new player here. My head is pounding right now.
Jesus Christ this is just the beginners guide
LMAO MY THOUGHTS EXACTLY!!
@11:30
Vaal Pact was updated a little while ago, and no longer provides life leech instantly.
I’m rethinking playing this game...I hvnt even started yet I have been looking at guides since forever T_T

your legend bro well done plz make guide for every class by no rushing speed runs so we laern clearly thankx for your videos awsome guide
Additionnally for flasks, I would say, that it is important to have flasks with these affixes on them : remove bleeding, remove freezing, remove shock
Yes, I mention this in Part 5 of the Beginners Guide Series
Thanks you so much for this!!! I wish one day i can know enough to creat my own decent viable build, but this is gold for newbies like me!!
Does using a bow+quiver count as duel wielding since it is two-handed?
Isn't a dagger dual wield build considered physical damage build? Rather then a spell damage build? Please clarify because I kinda went for the physical style...
Great guide! Which build is that used in the Life Leech portion of the guide? I really liked it :)
Excellent thank you for the awesome info... really enjoyed watching.

Thanks
what build are you using for life leech demontration? very nice vids informative and very well edited.
WOw great freaking guide. PS4 here!
DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDGGGEEEEE!!!! thx for your guide. it's really helping me.

Thank you for your work, it's very helpful!
Flat Life per Second on gear is a useless stat, due to how low the number is, so you want to avoid getting that on gear!
Engineering Eternity thank you for your quick reply! I'm trying to fix my build by getting some life now haha :))

Can you have both energy shields and evasion?
You sure can
Hidden Gem.heh good one!
can a quiver have sockets? haven seen one.
No, a bow can be 6 socket and works the same as a 2H. Would give that build an unfair advantage to have a 6L main hand and 3L offhand

JayGeeWentWorth Oh my fuck that is a godlike name, Exile.
Can you dual wield..dual wielded weapons ?
You can dual wield one-handed weapons. If you are referring to something like Wings of Entropy, then no. You can only use one of those at a time.
What happens if your head explodes while watching the "Beginner" guide?
It is written PSEUDO, not PSUEDO. Good guide though.
miss-spelled pseudo as psuedo
Bruh the struggle is real xD I have to say it in my head "See-Ooo-Doe" before I can spell it right
Too much for start. I've watched all 6 vids before and need a brake and turn on the game for a while.

Great! Always feels better when you are making it through content with ease. Glad you came back!
