Path of Exile

[An Ordinary Ordinator]

Either way, it sounds like you might be a bad fit for this game, or you need to learn how to regulate your emotions.

I'm kinda finding my footing with this game because I'm going in blind. It's much different than Diablo 2 in how it handles mechanics and skills, so I'm just trying to finagle around and find something that sticks. It's gotten better now that I've nailed down my build (Marauder Two Hander) and now that I'm nailing down the dodge roll mechanic, but I just wasn't digging that capstone fight in Act 1.

Going melee is tough in poe2. You will always struggle more with melee builds, especially early on. If there is one thing I really want them to balance, it's melee.

Anyways glad you are finding your groove.

You came from diablo, have you ever played poe/poe2 before? If not, find a league starter guide man, trust me it's easier to learn and progress that way.
Acts are pretty easy if you know your stuffs, and can be done with subpar builds.
But if make mistakes here and there, it all adds up in endgame (maps), and it can be very expensive to course correct. Learn from those who came before and wrote the guides, ask a lot of questions.

yea but you have no idea from where, its not unavoidable, but its really just fucking luck.

No. You talk out of your ass again.
Once he finishes his poetry he aims for your location at that time.
This is why rolling away after he's finished is what people will always tell you.

But I agree with @An Ordinary Ordinator, the Count Gooner fight is gay. It's frustrating and stupidly one-shotty when you are weak on early playthroughs, and irritating with so many pauses and wait periods when you are twinked.

Hard fucking disagree.
Geonor fight is arguably the best in the entire game.
The music, the poetry, the harsh but fair mechanics, everything is chef's kiss.
Also, I've played every league since 0.1 and I never died to Geonor, even when I didn't understand his mechanics.
He doesn't one shot you, unless you're some mental retard that sits and facetanks his long ass sword moves. And I can only assume those one-shot, because I never actually got hit by one.

I didn't get filtered, I killed him still and I'm currently playing Act 2.

Anyways, I'm slogging through Act 2 and did they hire a tranny to voice this character? He or she sounds exactly like Sena Breyer from Dawntrail.

I hate you pink join dates so much, it's unreal.
This is why you suck and got felted by the first act boss, because instead of focusing on the game, you're too busy divining if some mid boss is voiced by a tranny or not.
FUCKING NIGGER!

Patch notes are out. Hitler (energy shield) gutted with Ghost Dance since now, there's almost no shield recharge mods left on the tree. They gave Rolling Slam a 20% damage nerf and prevented Shield Wall from shotgunning to deal with the meta menace that is Warrior. It might be 1000 years of Ghazzy supremacy.

How much better is the campaign these days vs 0.1? I gave up right before finishing act 1 in 0.1 and haven't played since, but this league (mostly the core game patch tbh) looks pretty cool

It really feels like GGG wants everyone to play Zookeeper this league.
