5-6 chaos and it only comes off the library quest in merciless. It can drop randomly of course.
Can buy it for a regal (1.5c) off of Catarina, offered at random, resets stock after each daily.

Still surprised how many people in guild in beyond don't take me up on my shout-outs for zone completions.

Completed all the way up to Dominus area and no one wanted invites even though I had one mob left.

Have fun clearing lunaris, hedge maze and warehouse. Rofl... shit took me hours.

Anyone care to guess what this might be worth? Had just finished crafting a Crit bow from scratch and this thing dropped on the first pack I tested my old new bow on. I'm on rampage.

I would poexyz it and see what others are selling for, the market is changing almost hourly with the normal trends of things getting cheaper and ES going up.

Most people won't even touch thickets these days anyways. Everyones going for the base crit implicit bows.

Figured as much, there is only 1 similar but with no B/O.

It'll serve me well with my crit tornado shot herald of ash ranger until I can find/craft a comparable decimator I guess.

Not on beyond but what is the benefit of joining a game for zone completion?
It's one of the challenges for the leagues, when I get to ~5 mobs left in an area I ask if dudes wanna dip in for the completion. No one wants to though. *shrug

I'm in Merciless now, just hit 60 and I'm in Act2. I'll be on tonight to play for a bit.
Now that you are in merciless you need to focus on capping resists basically which I can help with. Getting weapons with over 300dps is a good start at 60, I have some 1h axes and maybe a 1h mace with that kind of damage if you need.

Cool, let me know what you have. I think my weapon is like 100dps or something lol. I got like 70% res for fire/lightning but cold is like 20% or something. Mervil was intense!

Merveil was intense for us all lol, that fight was much easier before this patch. That shit is fun though, you could be in D3 AFK killing the rift boss instead of moving + dealing with phases + adds and all that. Makes it kind of like an ARPG with MMO bosses, I hope you make it to Atziri she is one of the best fights I have done in any game.

I just need people to play with and I'm good. I don't enjoy soloing in this as much as I did in D3. I've been using the same skill since like level 5, boring as fuck.

What skill? Path of Exile works in such a way that you can use a skill you gain early (freeze pulse for example) and use throughout the game or you may level 40-50 levels using one skill only to switch it up mid-game. (spectral throw and cleave are often used as early levelers though people sometimes do use them forever, however) Unless you are using a build that requires you stick to a specific skill you should be able to take advantage of other skills. Possibly requiring some minor changes to your skill tree.


Now if the problem is that you only use 1-3 skills at most at any given time instead of say 5-10 then you are probably out of luck. In general in PoE you can expect to have 1 main attack, 1 curse, 1 movement skill. Some builds also have culling skills and/or boss killing specific skills. You can also socket a vaal gem as a one-shot .

Hes following a starter build to learn the basics of mechanics. I have my RL friends doing the same as him and one other doing ground slam, you really need to get through merciless to have a basic understanding of resists and basic mechanics is what I'm telling them for their first playthroughs. The next toon they make they will fly leveling and can get into more powerful builds that use multiple skills and different items with strategies to survive (IE : L Garb, L Coil chests)

I still have to learn Murked and my buddies on CWDT which I have banked for them all with EC / IC.

Ah thanks Krassus that probably explains it. The possibilities that exist when you start digging into the skill tree and gem combinations are what really draw me into PoE. Then you get a unique (Hi2u facebreaker) which fundamentally changes how you play and build your tree.

Thats what I love so much about the game, you can get one item late game that makes it an entire new game and then has you thinking about even more ideas. I came up with 2 awesome builds this league and downed Atziri on my melee last night. I like the fact I had to fall flat on my face last league and get my shit pushed in by Atziri so I knew what to spec for and gear this time. Its awesome that you can have multiple goals like clear speeds for the D3 converts in Gorge, Atziri or Uber Atziri for the MMO freaks like me, and Theorycrafting with millions of possible ideas for the nerd in all of us.

I am really happy with the housing also, come visit my island bros
