I heard that Humility weighting has been dropped to 5k from like 10k+. It's probably not worth farming Blood Aqueducts for Tabula anymore if this is true.

Hey Ziz, I usually farm A10 ossuary for exp because the skeletons are weak, give decent exp, and the area is always a figure-8. I've never seen ANYONE recommend it. Is it slept on, or is there a reason for choosing other areas like the ones you mentioned?

I think currency tab is overrated and overpriced. I just put 2 standard tabs in a folder named currency and it's enough if you exchange mats for jewelers orbs and then to fuse orbs. I just bought the starter pack and bought the Mega premium tab so i can sell stuff and have a ton of extra storage.

Nice video thanks for the links

You can also store a ton of stacks of currency you dont need but wanna save for later on alt characters inventory space.

You gotta know what ur doing except at the same time not knowing what to do after act 10.. Basically nobody lol

For real everytime i check reddit my brain hurts

That's the problem with a lot of PoE content creators I've noticed, they only make content with the thought that you know all the core systems in the game, when you really don't. I feel like PoE needs to bake everything into the campaign so people are actually able to learn wtf is going on, instead of people finishing act 10 and feel like having a bunch of confusing crap thrown at them.

@@zheif177 I thought it was my fault not understanding this video

The problem is there is a ton of gatekeeping with this game because the sellers on non SSF forums want to be able to sell you things and prevent you from being able to farm them or to really tell you how to get the things you need on your own. Now that being said they dont HAVE to tell you anything, but a lot of these videos end up being huge word salads with out any real info in them. @raxxanterax is the only one I have seen make videos that really breaks things down for people

I always watch these making sure I'm not missing something. Then realize I just watched a video.

I have thousands and I love watching those videos

Always something new to learn, there's so much in this game no one can know or remember everything about it... unless their entire life was devoted towards it

I've got like 400 hours in this game yet have only ever made it to red maps once, and even then I only did a few. My biggest issue with the game is I get to the point where I really just don't know what gear is considered good or not.

​@@The88shrimp I have ~700h and I've only gotten to red maps once as well. Highest level I've gotten to is 94 in SC trade, I always follow a build guide and still feel like I'm only scratching the surface in terms of knowledge.

A little? This game is way too convoluted at this point, hopefully they dont let poe 2 build up bloat like this

Have fun! My 2nd league is where I really popped off

I can see that nobody replied here so i will try and help a bit... so after act 10 obviously you get to start doing maps, maps make up the actual game of path of exile and the campaign through the acts is basically a tutorial. Once you get past act 10 for the first time odds are you will notice that your character has very low survivability, the first 3 things to do after act 10 is look at your gear, for the most part early on dont bother with any uniques, you want to find/make rare gear that has life and as many resistances as possible, dont worry about damage at all early on like this the first thing you need to fix up for maps is survivability, you should have atleast 3k life, capped res and enough defensive stats to be safe through white maps (tiers 1-5) if you can tank a few hits from a map boss without being close to dying you are in a good place early on, thw second thing is to get your flasks in order, you should not be using more than 1 life flask by this point, if you need more recovery it needs to come from a rec0very mechanic (life leach/life regen/life on hit) for the other 4 flasks you should be using, an armor and an evasion flask (the names escape me at the moment but they are the ones that give both the 1500 flat and the ones that give 20% additional) with those 4 support flasks your armor requirements are significantly lower early on but you can also switch 1-2 of them for quicksilvers if you can survive without them. The reason survivability is so important, even in softcore, is bc dying costs you a significant amoint of exp so if you are dying every 30 seconds you will never level up and will be forever stuck in a loop. The third goal is getting your first 5-6l chest with good mods, after these three things you will be in a place where you can start to wprry about your damage. The first goal for damager early on is being able to oneshot all mobs in maps except for rares and uniques, white and blue mobs have very low life and if you cant oneshot them you will run into serious damage issues if you try and move into yellow maps. The best way to increase your damage depends on what skill you are using but a good way to figure that out is to look up the skill on youtube and specifically look at how ppl increase its damage for builds. Once you have all of these things done you will just be at the point where you need to start finding/making/buying gear that pushes your damage and survivability even higher, a good goal for hp is to cross the 4k life barrier. I hope i coukd help a little bit i know the game is very hard at first but as you learn things it gets mucb easier

@@surr3ald3sign this is so helpful but still dont get about the maps and what to do? specially, from i understand after act 10 is super limited because what if i have no maps and etc? everything you do after act 10 is just looking for maps and clearing it then? if you have no maps and cleared it all with that kirac maps on sale, you are not doing anything???? i just dont get it at this point hahahah

@@jvaliente9094 ah ok i can also help a bit here, firstly buying maps from kirac os actually a really great way to get into maps early on bc they are much cheaper than buying maps from other players, you should also do his daily mission every day ofc, and when you are buying maps from him male sure you upgrade them to rare so you can get more drops bc maps drop pretty commonly inside of maps, you will almost always get atleast 1 map drop inside of a map even super early on, another thing you can dp is as you get atlas skill point for completing maps bonus objectives is start taking the 2% map drop chance nodes bc they will make sustaining maps very very easy, by the time you have 10 atlas points you wont really ever have an issue sustaining maps, you can alsp buy maps from other players but early on its teally expensive to justify spending 1-10c for each map

​@@surr3ald3sign Thanks for jumping in and explaining things a bit more. Pretty much in the same boat as the OP and am struggling with understanding a lot of the mechanics as well.

Thats ok. Fun is the most important part. I played PoE for the first time a loooong time ago and bounced of hard so I understand the feeling. Nowadays I can set my own goals after learning from Ziz which in turn allows me to enjoy the game more. Love Poe when im in the mood for a long term challenge and hate it when I dont lost without any realistic goal. 🙂

this is bait it has to be

RF is a pretty laid back build though. Toxic rain and explosive arrow might be more up your alley and ziz has guides for both of those. Or you could try out your own build. No need to force yourself if you're not having fun though, plenty of other games out there.

I quit twice around act 6 and 7 before getting through it all a 3rd time. The end game content is more fun, especially if your build works

Spell Suppression is fairly simple. It gives you a % chance to take half of spell damage, if you reach 100%, then you only talk 50% of all spell damage. Getting it from the tree and gear is super build specific and will always vary on what you are playing and what gear you're able to fit in your build. -Skryah

There are multiple end game bosses to hunt down in th3 atlas

I agree as a new player this was all easy to grasp, needs more details

If i remember correct i think there is a plug in/script, that "saves" what for mechanics you have in the map, and makes an icon at the bottom. But no clue what it is called anymore.

@Noxti! They farm it with the first character?

Was on the fence… but subscribed solely due to that intro ^.^

It's the same problem I endured for about 3 character reruns. I maxed out my resistences, but it came at the cost of other stats that kept me from taking too much damage, there's no way to cover all bases, or enough bases without spreading your stats too thin. The only way to play this game with what the game gives you is to follow a guide... That's not a game, that's a fucking chore.

@@ArtyMartyD I did find a cure for some of my problems. Bastion of elements ascension skill was the key. It was reflected lightening damage which killed me in an instant without no notable source. It wasn't very obvious nor fun to figure it out. Now I'm again in a situation where I'm way too powerful and overleveled and try to figure out how to move on. I have completed dozens of tier 1-3 maps, without getting much of the useful stuff or currency to make anything. I'm at level 79 and can complete tier 6 unique maps if I happen to get one from Kirac, but from others, I get barely 1 or 2 chaos and same amount of chromatic orbs per run. Propably I get some penalties from being so overleveled, but it's difficult to know how to proceed into higher tiers. I kill everything on the map and get notification it's complete. Still only maybe 1 of 10 maps open a new position in atlas. I have tried to search from some tutorials if I'm again missing something, but typically they contain tips about things I like to figure out myself, but not overall description about the game and important choises or turning points. I have some good looking gear from unique maps, but I still need lots of currency before even start to think about crafting. Maybe after 30 or so maps, I have one divine orb, 15 chaos, 25 chromatic, 31 scouring and 36 fusing. Some say I'd need at least 200 divines to craft decent set. That's propably if you know exactly what to do, but crafting sounds quite complicated and one screw up can spoil everything.

what, why

POE starts after campaign. Campaign is only prolog to the game. It means you have no idea how game looks like.

Watch his everything explained video for 3.22, it’s like one uber long video geared towards new player where he takes you through the first 10-15 hours of gameplay step by step.

Just follow his guide to the tee

Thats where i always stall out too. Even when im not in ssf, i never have the patience for the farming/trading/crafting required to get over that hump.

As a new player, I usually do like 5-10 maps or so, then go do another mechanic for an hour or 2, and go back to maps and keep rotating. Keeps it fresh and always feel like I have something worth doing and earn more contracts or lab entrances and stuff while doing the other content. It's such a good game
