Path of Exile is a MAJESTIC incline

[Saark]

Yeah that should be pretty easy going for you guys, I did it at 65 with my trapper and had very few issues. Don't get fucked by the traps in the final room and you're golden.

Lost my 60 level Raider to cruel Daresso last night, she had a 5-link queen of the forest on her

He just 2 shot me and i was so suprised i couldnt even leap slam or whirl away in time(let alone log out). Funny, considering i took like no damage fighting kaom a few minutes before that. GGG pls nerf

 

[Orma]

Guess i ripped to the 'combo attack' which is apparently unavoidable (can't evade or dodge) good job ggg, great boss you added there and he isn't even optional.

The labyrinth is a fucking waste of time.

That is all.

 

[Saark]

Day 1 and 2 you could easily get 5c+ per person to carry through it, 30min per run at max, not a waste at all It's still worth it at 2-3c since you get at least a decent amount of currency directly, and if you hit the jackpot on a helmet or boots enchant that can be another 1-2ex. For easy money just buy Atziris Step and enchant it until you hit the "damage penetrates 10% resistance if you haven't killed recently", every trapper or totem player will pay a buttload for it. 10% movement if you haven't been hit recently is also quite nice for any Eva/Acro build.

 

[Gerrard]

Oh yeah I forgot that PoE is a game about paying others to play it for you. Silly me.

Did the traps touch you in an inapropriate place? You can tell us, we've been there too.

As for the labirynth. Its certainly not alternative endgame since its too low level to farm experience and items. Its just a place you run 3 times for your ascendancy points, and those are very nice, some are build defining, some are straight power upgrades.

Then you can run labirynth for the item enchants. The helmet enchants seem to be quite powerfull and some of them are beyond simple damage boosts. But thats entirely optional, you character will work without them.

Also, you can get one treasure key from Argus, and around 3 from Izaro if you are willing to make the fight harder. So 4 keys, and you will get some currency items, maybe an unique, maybe some rares.

Sure it does not beat running well rolled mid level maps, but it never was presented as any alternative to them.

You mean I am getting payed for playing the game for others, which they are clearly fine with else they wouldn't pay me the currency. I'm not putting a gun to their head or anything.

What exactly is your problem though, you were the one claiming it to be a waste when it clearly isn't. Getting Ascendancy points, getting currency and getting enchants that are better than most of the Vaal corruptions is not good enough for you?

No, the game failing to load the next map because it's a poorly coded piece of shit after I spent 30 minutes exploring every room did.

 

[Saark]

If you're referring to the constant crashes on day 1 and 2, there have been countless posts by the developers as to the when where and why these happened, and so far I had none in the last 3 days.

I have to admit losing all your progress not only during the labyrinth but a couple of other areas aswell sucked hard, I just hope they don't underestimate the amount of returning players for the next expansion.

 

[Gerrard]

Also apparently the Amsterdam server is fucked up and it can randomly kick you from the game which I learned about yesterday.

E: and now the Frankfurt server died as well, thank god I finished the labyrinth earlier.

 

[TOME]

I was playing on Amsterdam server yesterday and I didn't have any problems.

 

[Trodat]

Is there a Codex guild for Path of Exile?

 

[Zdzisiu]

Is there a Codex guild for Path of Exile?

Yes there is. You should pester Hoaxmetal for invite.

 

[Orma]

Are you on PHC? I can invite you as well

 

[T. Reich]

I'm feeling semi-excluded with all you HC-bois out there .

Gotta say that challenges this time around are decidedly non-challenging for any decent player with a decent build and just a little time and effort to spare.

29/40 and almost done with another 4 already, and I don't even play that much outside of weekends.
Will have my golden portal effect in 2 weeks from now with 100% guarantee, once my Zana is lvl 8 from all those rotas.

 

[Hobo Elf]

The Labyrinth was a mistake.

 

[T. Reich]

Of course it was! It allowed Chitus Perandus to become the emperor, with his subsequent obsession with thaumaturgy and immortality eventually leading to the current events.

 

[Saark]

I always feel sad seeing Rigwalds corpse before the third fight with Izaro, he was so close...

 

[Orma]

Huh? There's like two of us now Padre and me, since Zdizisiu pussied out. You are free to man up and join though

 

[ThisNameIsFree]

It's some another loser. Rigwald participated in the Purity Rebellion against Chitus. So he couldn't possibly die helping Chitus here.

 

[Saark]

Just checked up on it and you're right, its just some poor ezomyte shmuck who happened to have completed all challenges previous league so he wears full the rigwald armour set. The poem refers to the greatwolf a couple of times, which is what I remembered and why I thought it was Rigwald himself. The templar in those labyrinth poems is Chitus I reckon?

 

[Zdzisiu]

God Damn, the new currency stash tabs look nice. But eating a hot meal every day is nice too!

Will wait for a sale, as is tradition.

I don't remember templar but i may missed some poems here. Chitus Perandus should be mentioned here since he is the first one who finished Izaro trial (previous emperor without successor) and became emperor (cheated his way through and betrayed his helpers in the end).

[Saark]

Yeah I know about the backstory and the letters, I was talking about the poems that you can find scattered around the labyrinth. It's basically a story about a templar and an ezomyte helping each other through the labyrinth, apparently the ezomyte fell short right before the end. I was just wondering whether the templar might've been Chitus himself.
