    Thanks for the tips fencers. Aparently I ain't smart enough to figure that 0 + 100% of 0 is still 0... That does leaves me question, is it standard for Witches with CI to have 0 physical damage reduction?

    Might try to incorporate some lighting into my build.

    it is different, D3 is better in its ways, but path of exile doesn't dissapoint, it slightly surpasses D3.

    Ok, now i have 2 options for the shadow DW claw build. Both may be imperfect, but need opinions whether #1 or #2 is better and if there are changes i should make.

    Is there any way to get more of those things that you use to discover items except from drops?

    In what way? as far as I know there's only cosmetic stuff. Like weapon glow effects, mini pets, dances and stash slots.

    Just beat Merveil last night! Holy hell, what a great fight! I was underestimating her at first because up until that point, I didn't really have to actively dodge things (even when I fought Brutus it wasn't a big deal if he hit me with a hook because I could run away before he attacked me), so I was unprepared when she threw all of these abilities at me. I nearly died because of it, but I quickly caught myself and finished the fight. Great fun! Can't wait to start Act 2.

    The entire engine was made by 1 guy.

    The developers funded the project with their own personal money & time for years as a labor of love.

    Pretty impressive for a small indie dev in New Zealand.

    If anyone know and don't mind giving a brief rundown.
    Everything is useful.

    Any single item in the game can go from 0 stat/0socket white item to the exact 6 stats, maximum sockets, linked, recolored and +20% rare. That is the ultimate goal-- to craft a perfect piece in each slot.

    Will need thousands of orbs of every denomination to do this, of course.

    The standard in the community for orb value is such: http://www.poeex.info/

    No. It is not common to have 0 physical resistance with CI.

    CI just grants immunity to chaos. All other resistances need to be accounted for; elemental fire, cold, lightning, physical and stun.

    0.

    Take a look for yourself: https://www.pathofexile.com/shop

    Most everything is cosmetic. A weapon glow effect, mini pet, character dances.

    The nicest perk is expanding inventory space of your bank/stash. And extra character slots should the initial 24 not be enough. Both of which are one time $3USD per purchase.

    He hit harder in the closed beta tbh...only just done him and took his single targeted blow once and the lightning laser repeatedly, the single blow is generaly a 1 hit kill and the lightning attack i was expecting to get raped by that since i only have like 15% lightning resists but took the 3 to the face and carried on...even closed beta that attack would kill you if you took all three blasts

    Yes. That is the basic premise; to farm for statical increases over a decade or so.

    Well just got it downloaded now (Like 5 hours, but my net B.L.O.W.S atm, cause my dad is stealing all off it for back ups...) and decided as useal to play my Sorceress/Wizard/Mage/Witch whatever you call it. I always like to play such character first inn RPG's.

    Hope it will prove good enough for me to atleast finish the game Im still amased they launch it for free trough (Even if its gonna suck, I so fucking cant belive its all free when you think about what you get from this game), so cool off them.

    Just finished up Act 1 on my Hardcore Duelist. Heading into Act 2 and by the looks of the website I'll be breaking into the tail end of the ladder shortly : )

    I couldn't even solo her in normal mode lol. Only boss so far that has given me a huge amount of troubles lol. I feel bad that I had to take a party to take her down. xD
