The merc skill/reload mechanic is really fun to play. Took me a bit to figure it out but once I did I'm rocking.
I thought it would be clunky but in this it feels fine.

Not saying its amazing or anything but it doesn't feel horrible.

Seems like I just get into random instances where latency spikes. Had 800-1kms spikes in this latest one.

Also, this Count Geonor boss dude is a fucking doozy. Holy shit.

Yeah I’m enjoying Marc as well. Got up to Bramble Patch whatever thing after you free the hanging noose guy and have to call it a night. Haven’t died on any bosses yet but they took a lot of evading and moving while plinking. Couple of freeze shotgun blasts to the face and then a follow up to shatter. Swapping isn’t too bad but I need to find a better hot key layout to make it more fluid.

Well I’m done for tonight, about to enter the manor. I’m loving it so far, the boss fights are pretty cool, killed all of them in 1 or 2 tries so far except for the executioner who killed me like 5 times, he kept one shotting me with an attack that was announced by a voice line, for some reason I kept missing my timing on the dodge roll.

I like the mob diversity, they each seem to have their own attacks, some of which hit pretty darn hard.

I can’t wait to play some more this weekend.

what the actual shit. you can't set bound skills and such to non alphanumeric keys when you are WASD. but if you choose keyboard and mouse you can (but you can't move with WASD.

As far as I know all invites have been sent to this point. If you don't see it, maybe check the socials tab (J)?

I will be buying guild tabs and more player space the moment I'm able to, but no idea when that might be.

Speaking of, are quad tabs the preferred, or premium? I assume quad since you can't sell from the guild tab, but thought I'd ask before I buy them. If I ever get to.

Cleared act1, surprised the servers aren't shitting themselves. Boss fights are definitely really cool and quite challenging. Really liking the new skill gem systems, feels good to just find a generic gem and cut it into whatever skill you want, don't have to remember which quest unlocks what gems and buy them in advance, don't have to put them in offset weapons to level them either, just feels good to use. And you can use way more skills that you would in early poe1 too.

Playing summoner witch, so far the summons are pretty meh but that's also how they are in poe1 early on, not sure it's gonna pick up though. The autoresummon thing is weird, it's a nice qol for running around against trash but on boss fights it's a bit of a problem since you often end up with no/few summons up, so your damage just goes to shit. The summons also seem very balanced around their active and their personnal damage seems pretty low(but it is early and I didn't really check every support setup, I have faster attacks and additional poison on the archers but they don't seem to do all that much).

I went with the early dmg nodes into the nearby minion life area but they still pretty much explode on bosses too so that feels like kind of a waste(the nodes have minion revive speed though so that's good). Unlocked zombies but without a way to generate corpses it's pretty useless a lot of the time.

Been supplementing the damage with Essence Drain.

Yaamean is me if you didn't send one yet, made it past the executioner and called it a night.

I'm pretty sure that I did myself no favors by starting ranger but

this is plainly too much to expect from players for an act one boss.

I didn't realize witch was going to be basically 100% summons. I'm thinking of rerolling tomorrow to sorc or something. This is retarded.

I had to go buy a fireball wand from vendor to do this Count boss, cause witch fucking blows fat donkey dick for it.

LoL, I used some coins to get a cosmetic and when I went to equip it, it said not available in this version. What?

Well this game is legit at least. So far my biggest problem is gear is falling so far behind. It's night and day when you upgrade 10 levels on everything. I like the slow pace of loot drops, but it probably needs a pity system that matches your primary stat early on if they're going to keep it so stingy.

On the other hand I've gotten piles of currency, but I'm loath to use any of it. At any rate good base item drops aren't really falling out of trees either. Interestingly there are just legit upgrades on the vendors from time to time.
