You'd think Gromph and I would play together
since I live in Taiwan.
***Also I am coming to Japan relatively soon Gromph.
Well I was in a same level map in Act II and I only still got whites from rares. Even the amount has dropped down to one item.

RT isn't going to save you when you hit a lot of reflect mobs at once. Even then I think it has to be a double reflect, i.e. reflect mob in a reflect map. Well, it also depends on how much life or ES you have...
Speaking of streamers getting good deals on gear, I just saw Kripp getting 5L decent armor for 6 Orbs of Regret and 1 Regal - hahahahaha, what a god damn joke. Why people are so eager to get fucked on such retarded deals, roflmao... 6 Regrets
All my 5L chest except for 1 cost me 1 gcp or less. I'd buy a white and hit it with an alch. I'm sure his is way better but it's not unheard of.

Is there any indication in what is coming with 1.1.0 ?
That's great and all, but... where's my build of the week number 2 D:
yeah I beat normal last night. I have been playing at a downsampled resolution with all settings on max the Dominus fight killed my FPS. It seemed my internet took a crap during that fight too because I kept teleporting  I died like a dozen times. So shit
Man, this game probably looks pretty good downsampled. I'm too fond of the quick alt tab with windowed fullscreen though. So good.
That's probably just the de-sync kicking in. Glad I'm on domination cause I died a few times because of it.

Anyone can give me a general idea on how much orbs worth? I don't need the correct market value, just which one worth more.
I been trying to buy stuffs I saw on chats, and just accept whatever offer they gave me. I brought clarity for orb of alch, and tempest shield for one chaos. How much I can sell 8% quality Reave for? Is it based on percentage? Like 1 chaos for every 4%?

GOT AN EXALTED! I'm freaking stoked.
Gotta pawn this thing and get some currency to buy some gear.

Google Path of Exile currency there are a couple of site that breakdown approximate values. As far as gems there is no set formula because some you can get from quests so they are easier to get and cost nothing. Others are more valuable. Once you start hitting 15+ quality gems then they get expensive. Put it this way. You can't buy any 20% gem for 5 chaos. I've never seen that ever.

thanks for the infos
Only just found a summon skeleton gem , haven't tried it yet.
Haven't found a totem gem yet either
I made an archer (blood magic) and leveled it to 20 with a unique bow I found (quill rain: 3x attack speed and half damage)
Which seems to do tons of damage but since it has such high attack speed I oom myself in under 3seconds when casting poison arrow/lightning
Not sure what skill gems to use on him either.

explosive arrow if you want to use quill rain
So I've been reading in detail about recipes, and I've realized I skipped out on a lot of fundamental things. For example, I was selling off items without identifying them, and I wasn't aware for example that selling three flasks of one level would give me one of the next (I got a super OP mana flask now as a result), or that selling off a type of item (weapon, armor, flask) with a combined quality of 40% would give me whetstones, armorer's shards, or glassblower baubles.
And then there's all the other recipes which could be interesting, but man--I'd need tons of stash tabs for that! And your active inventory is way too small if you want to save loot for making all these complicated recipes.
Which leads me to my question... where can I get that Portal gem??? I saw someone on trade chat selling them for 30 chaos. I want one, I'm gonna run out of portals soon if I keep portingback and forth to save loot for recipes. T_T

For pricing I still don't know what to do other than throw stuff out there and see if they bite. I look uniques up on google to see what people are buying or trading them for on the forums. For normal items use this site http://poexplorer.com/, enter the stats and level of the item you have, try to find a similar item with and see what it's going for on the forums. It's a long process, also make sure it's in the league you're in.
For 4 links I just take my chances with my own mats. It was easy enough to get a 4 link before the big update recently, it's even easier now. You can find a lot of them too though, but if you want a specific type of armor to hold a specific set of gems you may want to get the armor type that will be easy to color the way you need them to be colored. A pure armor item will have a hard time getting Green x1, blue x4. You will spend so many chromes on that. While a Energy Shield + Evasion armor will get that no problem. It will probably be found with that color spec already on it.
I know there is a website for loot recipes but do you guys print it out it something?
How do you tell pure or not armour?

If it has another defensive stat other than armor (ie evasion or energy shield)
Lots of disconnects tonight. Some at very bad times. I'm playing co-op with a friend and we just finished the quest (in the pyramid) that moves us to Act 3. I starts to disconnect JUST as I click on the area transition part of the map. My friend goes through, he can't get back and I can't go through the portal he made (I can't remember what it say, but the gist seems to be that I have to go through that area transition myself).
Any way to circumvent this? We're trying to stay at equal level, not to mention that crypt/pyramid was long and a pain in the ass. I do not want to do it again on my own.

Haven't found one of those (perhaps someone could sell me one)
Till what level is quill rain worth using ? Is it worth swapping to a higher lvl rare bow after a while? (my archer is lvl 24)
All of this is blowing my mind, all of it
why do you ID all items? (I don't think I'd have nearly enough scrolls for this though)
damn the flask thing seems usefull

Unidentified items give you transmutation shards. Identified items give you alteration shards, which are worth more. Also, identified items with 6 magic properties give you orbs of augmentation.All of this is blowing my mind, all of it

A three linked item with each socket of different color gives you a chromatic, the npc vendors starts selling then after level 15+.

If you go explosive arrow, you use quill rain through the whole game. You don't care about bow damage, just the speed of the attacks.
Just realized this is a Free-to-play game.
I enjoy loot games, but I don't get into them as hardcore as a lot of people do. I prefer to just play alone, maybe do one or two playthroughs and don't do a ton of grinding for rare, uber equipment.
Is this game still up my alley?

Yes. It is a little bit more involved and deeper than you might be used to with recent loot games, but you can easily play it through solo. You might find the end game maps a bit of a challenge if your gear is completely self found however.

How/when do you solve your mana issues then? Being constantly oom really sucks
also what support gems do you use with explosive arrow?

I got a n00b questions about the new leagues.
What happens to the stash items of the characters in Nemesis, when the league ends?

You'll likely keep them and they move to standard items. You'll have a read only tab that you can only withdraw for and not put in is my guess.
It happened when the game went to 1.0. You'd have 2 '1' tabs with one of them as read only
I don't know what your current setup is, but a Life on Hit/Life Leech gem would probably help more.
Holy crap, Temple of Lunaris and Sceptre of God are ridiculous in difficulty on normal if playing solo. The difficulty jump was just insane. Just for curiosity's sake I had bought some Life Leech and Life Gain on Hit gems earlier today, and I can't imagine trying to solo this without them.
I also tried my first 6-man run... there was so much shit on the screen I couldn't even see who I was attacking, pretty much I was just clicking randomly. Six party members is just overkill...

Got a greater multiple projectiles, about 8 mana leech per hit from items , some better mana flasks and now the quill rain is working out better.
It's pretty fun to gather up several groups of enemies and blow them all away, this spec seems to work well in groups too.
When using quill rain, what do you normally do for single target dmg ? (bosses without adds etc), Im using poison arrow atm and it works ok but wondering if there's any better option.
difficulty really goes up at the end of act 3, the gardens were kicking my ass solo.
it seems rather difficult to find the items you need by chance, I ended up just buying them from the vendor and upgrading them myself till I found something good.
Kind of with this game had a sort of starter pack where you spend 20 euros or w/e and get a discount on char slots/stash tabs etc, seems like I'll end up buying a whole lot of stash tabs.
How many character slots do you get by default?
