There is no reason not to run this on a low armour high avoidance build like a ranger. No idea what build you're following, but no spell suppression cap sounds like a major red flag. Here is an actual good build maker and player:

Feels like I'm probably going to be forced to get a scarab tab.
Pay up, goyim :takemyjewgold:

Did you at least use a Quicksilver Flask on the ranger or are you still walking straight into titty bitch fire as you did with the RF guy?
I have a qs flask. (The one you get from a quest at the start of the game. No other has dropped)

I'm basically out of the league already, played one t2 map and my heart isn't in this build. I also feel like the drop rate for corpses immediately became a lot lower in maps? Or I got really lucky for a while during the campaign? I was finding 1-3 corpses per map in campaign, even with the standard 'take shortest path, ignore half the enemies on that path'

Scarabs+necropolis mods also feels very fiddly, I don't want to put more effort into white maps than alt and go. It's not entirely unfun though, if I had a build I enjoyed I would not quit because of it.

my life was better ever since obtaining atlas passive that removed scarabs. At that point I was close to editing my filter even.
The problem is that this node is at the very top, so you need to get like 50 atlas passive points to get there.

I am very upset about the scarab deluge (played a single t1 map and I already have like 7 different scarabs). Feels like I'm probably going to be forced to get a scarab tab.

The lighning arrow meta league starter I'm playing does not feel great. In part it's because my gear is a bit bad, but the lack of defensive layers is also making me go "damn sc players, you live like this?".

Clear speed is pretty good, even bosses go down pretty fast to ballista. But the chance of getting randomly oneshot is just too damn high.

League mechanic is making squishy builds feel way worse than they are. LA is fantastic, and doesn't die often when mapping, even in bad gear (really just dies against ubers). But when you get some random shit like 100% bonus damage as chaos or whatever the fuck the league throws at you, yeah, you're going to fall over randomly.
Lies. At least the guide I'm following. The builds defensive layers are: not even capped spell suppression (unless you have good gear), high evasion, 100% inc life (trolololo), cwdt+ic (what is this, 2019?). You either offscreen stuff or you risk getting oneshot. Neither is fun to me. At least I've gotten to maps with every ascendancy now, I am ready for poe2.
I've been ready for PoE2 2 leagues ago (6 months ago).

It's obviously a video recording problem. Anyway

Dude if this stuff ran at any decent framerate they wouldn't disable light sources left and right. Even that stupid projectile is not a light source. And that's just fake lights not shadow casting lights.

So much for PC (fetishism).

Fishing finally implemented? Time to use all that fishing equipment we have been hoarding for years?

I don't think it will be boat league. I think it will be city building league.

The port they landed looks exactly like the one in some PoE2 gameplay videos. Maybe we'll start to build that city for the settlers and this league will be some kind of stepping stone between both games.

Some small use cases but none of the bandits were worth 2 skill points, for one so-so I'll try speed, rather boring and uninspired tou. As for the quest you have to go there anyway for lab so w/e.

League mechanic looks pretty cool actually.

Rip raider though, how will I get 250% ms in ssf now?

Edit: also, lul at these melee buffs, doubled damage in some cases. Moving more defences from auras to items sucks.

Damn, this all looks awesome. I just might come back for this league for one last Epic PoE1 league before PoE2.

MF got hit
take my energy
and shove it up your ass
Good change. All changes are good.

Melee league here we go! I just need to find a character that will not die all the time while being too close to enemies and since I am going to playing this on Xbox I will not have precise targeting or moving so I will needs some big AoE melee attack.
