Path of Exile

Anyone around here playing it?

I am currently goofing around with a Crit-EK shadow in the One Month Race on SC after I got bored with the MS-Marauder.

Stopped playing it a while ago because I played solo and couldn't sustain maps. Played a physical crit ranger.

Played it a long long time ago, but I hated the "talent point" system in it as when you designed a spec, you weren't going to try anything else and kinda had to cookiecutter your way to stuff.

Also didn't like the combat system as a spell caster.. it just was off for me personally. Though I think it was technically beta still then, so they might have fixed a lot of the issues that prevented me from playing more than few hundred hours of it.

Hmm, I think what you described MGT got better. The game still is heavily plauged by FotM, where everyone and their mother plays the one spec a couple of streamers favor for that league, but number of available specs is high.

What me annoys more is the fact, that the trading system is still shit due to not having ingame support. I spend about 50% of my time alt tabbed or whispering people to negotiate about items I or they want. I would rather want to play.
Maybe it will be ok, once they implement remote trading, like they promised some months ago.

[Kver]

I hate the fact that you have to invest hours in trading with the really, really awful system in order to stand any chance in merciless maps. There's no space for your own building/looting.

Any of you guys rocking the current 1 month leagues?

I usually play on the HC ones but for the 1 month I went SC. Slapping with a CI Facebreaker Witch atm, great fun.

I played a bit in the 1 month league but stopped again once I hit endgame because of the mentioned problems with the trading system. The game is fun but it is just it feels so hard to keep track of what is something worth.

Though it seems that the new expansion, they just announced, creates a bigger more predictable crafting system.

Also another passive tree revamp.

Collected a couple of chars on Rampage:

- Level 67 Molten Strike DW Marauder (kinda screwed him up)
- Level 87 BurnProlif Fire Trapper Templar (amazingly strong)
- Level 72 BurnProlif Explosive Arrow Templar (even stronger)
- Level 72 Bow Shadow (also very strong but discontinued so that a buddy could take the gear)
- Level 66 Bow Barrage CoC
- Level 68 Fireball EB AA CoD Witch
- Level 79 Spectral Throw Crit Dagger Shadow (weaker than expected)
- Level 66 OneHand Reave Block Duelist (failed)
- Level 66 Molten Strike CoC Volls Discharger (by far the strongest char I had so far and he still needs a lot of gear)
