Yeh, I don't much like farming docks. Are there any decent farming alternatives in A3? Snakes are annoying, dogs are dangerous early on, solaris/lunaris temples are pretty dangerous, most the rest of the maps are too sparse or too convoluted.

The City of Sarn (first zone in a3) is decent if Perpetus (EK/bear trapper) isn't a problem for you.

Flicker strike mobs are the worst...those things in the sewers almost one shot me so many times even with good resist.

Just wait til you do the map with the flicker strike boss... If you don't have summoner to help you're probably ****ed.

Which map has the flicker strike boss? I heard perp (bear trap) boss is back in the ghetto level 68 map. I haven't fought him yet though.

This game is so unforgiving. I doubt I'll be in maps soon anyway since leveling has lost its luster after doing 1-40 something 4 times in the same week. I'm not quite sure how guys like kripp don't go insane from doing the same build over and over and over in races.

Because they are efficiency experts. For them (and myself, but I don't race) I really find great enjoyment out of finding more efficient ways of doing things.

That could be anything from min/maxing a build or leveling up, etc..

Still must get boring or something idk. Insane that he hit 55 in the 8 hour race. I don't have the endurance to run the same zone 40+ times in a row to get there.

Yes Ghetto, and im glad my "main" is a pure summoner atm, makes so much things so easy...

I still nearly died two times to the wharf snake boss yesterday. I have -10 chaos resi and it nearly oneshot me. The only thing that saved me was a wall of minions between me and the snake.

didn't even know this thread existed... cool. On a break from PoE atm.. pretty burnt out, have had some good race finishes from 1hr to the 1weeks... looking for a fresh economy as having access to 10tabs of good items and ~30exalts in currency isn't too fun. Had a bad ass fireball/cold snap templar going until I died @ loading screen @74.. still have a 78 duelist but.. ya, burnt out.

If you lure him to the side (and not go straight into his zone) he's much easier and doesn't even hit you... hc pro tips

Just make sure you have capped fire res and it'll be fine... unless it's like haste/multi proj; gtfo.. or range it. City of Sarn is decent too but not nearly as good as docks. If you're not talking merciless try getting peity down and progging a1 or doing the ledge

Nice. I made it to 51 on my new ranger with turrible dps. I've picked 100% defensive passives to this point.

Rageeeeeeee. Just desynced, almost died, and missed an exalt drop in Docks. So sick of carrying scrub pub leveling groups only to get shat on by rng.

I added you, I'm rolling a guy for the 1week but will probably do a few of the side races as well

Is it worth doing the 1 week if you're only going to put in 20 hours maximum? I want to start a new toon and I guess getting some points is probably good.

I personally like the fresh economy... definitely do it up! more fun imo

I play with mostly self found gear on hc anyway. I really do not enjoy trading (and I'm poor).

Yup same here. I don't have that high hopes for my 1 week char (just started him today), but what the hell.

I managed to die 5 times yesterday (lol desyncs/****ty internet at home) with lvl10-20 chars in the week race so said **** it and quit. I am going to do a lot of the other races tho, I always run solo but would definitely be up for 2p2 parties.

Anyone capable of doing ghetto maps on HC (standard league)? I'll gladly trade you for any other 68 map. I have about 6x unrolled, 1x magic rolled and 1x rare rolled.

The map itself seems good except for the boss. I just can't handle that risk with CI. I have to run the map so slow just to make sure I don't accidentally run into the boss.
