Cruel mode? and here I am in act 3 struggling in 'easy mode' :) I was wondering why so I began looking at my gear, lvl 12 gloves... lvl 13 boots... level 10 belt?? Ok, I think I figured out why my lvl 34 character is starting to struggle...
I wish more people would reflect on their character like you did, instead of yelling "it's unbalanced!" at everything. True, some parts over-tuned.. but for the most part it's fine where it's at.
@terrodar19 yes. The higher the item level is the high the stats you can roll on it. For example. You roll life on kill on a level 2 item. The roll would be 8-12 on a level 20 item it would be 20-40.
@ omg…… thanks. Im playing witch lvl 38 and im kind of lacking on gear, i need spirit not from weapons since im doing a demon form build (theyll most likely fix the fact that it disables all your weapons, terrible skill design). Doing just fine though but will definitely not going to keep up with end game content
The merchants in the jungles of act 3 and the caldron witch in the Vaal area also change their items periodically and they also always have multiple rares.
@ yeah I just figured people may not have these 3 special merchants in mind when they’re going back to check vendors. I’ve only gone back to these guys once since I went during act 3 so I didn’t know for sure that they changed inventory every level. But yeah they change inventory too and the quality of the items they have also seem to be better than the normal act merchants.
@@lordhokage2717 It is, every big streamer was talking about it 2 days ago when they noticed this. Just pay attention to the mod -1 level, that will be listed and take effect.
@@GeraldHarnack-x4t You can. Go in game and test it on any low level if you need. but you can level them after corruption. Everyone was making videos on that 2 days ago exactly because you can level them after.
Yeah i didn't know what these did and used one on my best gem with upgraded quality and slots and it corrupted but did nothing. I was still able to upgrade it after.
I like the game. I am having fun with it. Granted I haven’t played the game very long like everyone else has. Just having a rough time playing any game lately.
As a newbie here, I salute you for your vids. Can you help me understand how to overcome the „The requirement not met” when upgrading passives? Stay golden and thank you
Depending on the level of a skill gem, you need a certain amount of dex, strength, or int to use it, this amount is also changed based on what support gems are socketed into a skill. Each individual support gem also has these requirements. You need more of one of the stats to use or even unlock the passive. Try changing some of your nodes on your passive skill tree to the stat you need to use the passive gem. Hope this helps
@@Slackerzz- - thanks, def helps. I wish it would tell me in game why though. Having to figure it out by swapping weapons or refunding passives is just bad design and a time suck.
@@SamMontoya when hovering over a skill or support you’re trying to unlock, in the description box it will say what the stat requirements are for it. If you have any gear that has ‘+1’ or plus whatever number on it, it will also increase the stat requirements for it, so if you have a piece of gear with bonus skill levels it will require more stats than you can manage at earlier levels in the game so be careful using gear like that
@@SamMontoya So in game it does tell you the new stat values you'll need to use a skill like "Int 43>50" in the hover over of the skill when you're upgrading, with the right number being red if you don't meet the new requirement and blue if you do.
Tried the ascendancy on cruel 4 times, 3 times the game crashed mid challenge, and one time, the boss died, the trials completed, and then my character got one shotted by something i dont know what, and then the trial failed after i finished.
@zackknipping827 I personally bought the 6 stash tab bundle for 110 for pure space, a premium stash tab for 120 for any trading, and then a currency tab for 60 as a preference for organizing/trading (These are the sale prices right now)
@@zackknipping827 so far, other than a currency tab and a couple premium tabs they’re all more or less unnecessary. There isn’t a Waystones tab available yet but once there is that would be worth it too.
The real issue is the broken abilities/ascendancies…. You cant advance if your build sucks, they need to fix all that before we even start thinking about gear
Then respec, and rebuild, that’s honestly a skill issue. I’ve been playing with the same trash build as a solo player, I work 40hrs a week and am on act 3 with the starting gear you get in the first act. They should not have to buff your specific play style cause you suck. Rebuild try again or quit playing.
@ im doing fine dude lol im speaking for the rest of people…. Im playing w a half ass build and im flowing through act 3 , killed the first bosses in 1-2 tries.. and yes i agree w you, its a skill issue, i learn mechanics quickly on bosses i encounter, its not as hard as people make it sound but they HAVE to fix a LOT of abilities that are just not doing enough damage
@@terrodar19 yes and that’s the point of this being an early access the rest of people struggling suck at the game. They want their specific builds buffed. The game isn’t hard to respec they just suck. I don’t understand why the complaints, dodge rolling and getting stuck now that was an issue and it got fixed within 4 days of the release.
kind of a catch 22 on exalted orbs lmao if no one uses them because they want to trade for prerolled items, the pool of prerolled items decreases drastically lol
Just noticed you don’t have stash tabs 😂. Just blows my mind that as a content creator you don’t have them or you just don’t believe in the game long term or are waiting on a sale but come on man you’ve got a million subscribers get some damn stash tabs
It counts as completed, but if u die after a trial is completed, you lose it, happened to me, couldnt get the ascendancy points, raged rlly hard, was really caerful and took me like 2h to do the dam thing, then after the boss was dead, i got one shotted by only god knows what and lost everything.
Bro needs to get some stash tabs on sale right now 😂 i just got currency, gems and premium stash bundle, and got extra coins for whichever other stash tab of your choosing! 💪🏽
My best advice speaking from experience struggling here and there. Farm a couple levels and put resources towards your weapon and try to progress again. You can reset zones by pressing control + left click on the waypoint or zone entrances if you're on pc.
@@janamb88 I think I'm already over leveled. Level 38. I think it's my build that's the problem. Need to completely respec and re gear just to beat him.
Defo level up your weapon. I ran into the mistake of keeping it the same cos it's yellow... Not realising how to read the stats properly. When I did that it was a night and day difference
@@Logic105 I just beat him yesterday after being hard stuck for a day or two. To be honest I just had to play really patient, just chipped him down slowly mostly playing to preserve flask and health. Once I switched gears towards playing for health and not damage I beat him. Just take it slow and play smart, learn the mechanics and the timing of his swings for the second phase, hope you beat him bro
I believe you have to complete act 3 and move into the next tier of difficulty to unlock. Im also act 3 and almost through it so I will see if this is right.
As a new player I have to be missing something. I'm halfway through act 3 and the game just steady feels like shit to play. Call me whatever you want but I genuinely think D4 is a more fun game to play. This shit just feels bad to me
This is fantasy talk to like 95% of players. Gear and crafting mats have such abysmally low drop rates that target farming anything is basically impossible. I’m level 45 and almost done with A3 on a ranger and haven’t had a good gear upgrade since my early 20s in level. It’s EA and lots of stuff to be fixed and improved on. Base game is incredible but holy shit the stuff that’s broken with this game really shouldn’t be this early.
They're litterally upping those right now with the current run of patches they're sending out. Also you really should be using your gold to buy upgrades from the in town store, be it the one you can see what it is or the gamble, both give you gear at your current level.
Skill issue, I’m playing witch and it’s just a build issue, monk is pretty busted you just suck at building classes hence why you are here watching this video. It flew over your head and now you have this comment showing you suck.

Out of curiosity, is this your first arpg?
Im legit asking, not being an ass hole.
Also on note: Dying in Endgame you lose 10% of your XP
Total? or just of that level?
@@Leg-end445just that of the level you won't de-level so if you have 13% exp you have 3% after death and then you die again you now have 0%.

Great stuff! Thank you!
This is correct. Corrupted gems are currently capable of adding levels but there quality and number of sockets are fixed.
Wrong
Didn't he say in the video you can't gain levels? But you can.
You can level a gem after being corrupted!
@@leosamaaaa are you sure? If so that’s big I’m going to test it on a weak spell

Because we know the campaign and mechanics already + probably watched some guides :)
Well it is a placeholder. The act 4-6 bosses will probably be a ramp up in difficulty by themselves along with the new enemies.
As a new PoE player this video was extremely helpful, thanks!
I like the game. I am having fun with it. Granted I haven’t played the game very long like everyone else has. Just having a rough time playing any game lately.
Are there not any belts with more than 1 charm slot??
I found a belt with 2. The extra charm slot is a sub-stat that you can roll into.
Looking forward to the endgame guide i have no idea what im doing

Bro, c'mon man, treat yourself to some better stash tabs. Its worth it.
Especially right now considering they're on sale
I'm new, which tabs are worth buying with the 300g we got?
@@zackknipping827 yes get at least a currency tab and one premium stash tab, the premium allows you to list items for sale much easier

@@SamuelLua the respec should be 100% free. for now.

kind of a catch 22 on exalted orbs lmao if no one uses them because they want to trade for prerolled items, the pool of prerolled items decreases drastically lol
The market is usually flooded with ID'd rares that people drop in a dump tab so I doubt it's an issue. Actual good mods are prolly very expensive tho.
Do the bosses that give u spirit not give u spirit again in hard mode?
Weirdly cruel feels easier to me than normal did so far.
Your build is more fleshed out and your gear probably actually more makes sense, also you are BETTER at the game lol
Support slots need love theres so few supports.
theres quite a few skills unreleased..
also look at all gems not just recommended
Punching air right now because I was using my exalted orbs every chance I got …
Can someone help me with what skills are best to use for warrior in early game? (Acts 2 and 3)
Check out maxroll guides bro, they're usually really good
