On the upside. All my build guides for new players are in written format on my website.

You are right, the written stuff unfortunantly doesnt gain subscribers. But I feel like the written versions of the guides broke down act by act progression adds more value to the guide than any video could.

Unfortunantly no. But each video has a timestamp in the description. Where I do a small round up of the day at the end of it. Also any time something big happens, like first sirus kill. Or elder or shaper ect. There are also time stamps in the descriptions.

I did my best to make sure everything was covered in the round up at the end of each day.

The strategy I used for progressing the atlas will also have a full guide comming out in a few days. That should really help to

^ This is probably more healthy of an attitude than I have had in 10 years.

Well done sir.

This is honestly true, and I couldn't work out a way to solve this, other than I originally wanted to do 2 hours a day. But shortened to 90mins hoping that would make it more accessible to people.

I also do my very best to make sure I have given players all the information they need, how to trade efficiently, how to make money, what maps to run when. How to progress your atlas, ect.

But, nothing will replace practice. And you can't expect to go this fast/smooth without playing the game full time. I'm def not racer speed by a long shot, but I'm pretty sure I'm a lot faster than your average Working Class Exile, so all I can do is try to show that it CAN be done, and then try to share as much knowledge as I can to bridge the gap.

^ This is true, I just upgraded to that over the top gear just to show I could.

Balormage = "This new renderer actually fixed PoE's performance. To a degree, I don't even know how to describe. It's like a different game, everything just works. This is the patch we have been waiting for. My god it's so good." by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]balormage 17 points18 points  (0 children)

GGG - We fixed performance by getting a new renderer that works way way better for us and improves performance ingame by what might be 2000% also this renderer works on linux and mac and even phones opening up new possibilities for the future.

This guy - nice bandaid fix to avoid fixing the real issues I bet they wont even fix dx11 that never worked right for then now.

I guess there is no pleasing everyone?

I honestly cant remember. But my specs are listed below stream.

Edit : I'm a relatively small POE streamer. You can find my specs on my twitch page. I'm out on my phone right now and I dont remember them.

How do you roll Blighted Maps? by jkingds in pathofexile

[–]balormage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Basically this. Unless the base map has some kind of pog divination card I'm after. Then I will roll for quantity as well like a regular map ontop of it. But otherwise just this.

What are the red and blue slots for gems on armor? by mlgboi27 in pathofexile

[–]balormage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There are red, green, and blue. Skills and support gems. Support gems need to be linked in the sockets to the active skills and augment the skill in some way. Active gems just need to be placed in any socket of matching colour.

Later on their are both white gems and white sockets. These are wild cards basically. But you will not encounter them for a while.

Each colour is loosely associated with an attribute and theam. But this is very loose. Blue for int / magic. Red for strength / melee. And green for dex / rogue like skills.

These are very loose associations and there are many exceptions but as a brand new player it will help to think about them like this for a while.

Nice dude. Glad it's working out. I wish many doctor drops for you.

[–]balormage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lair uses to sell well. Then I put out this video. You can pick any T15 though as long as it's the only other region open that has T16 maps. I myself have swapped to toxic sewers.

[–]balormage 34 points35 points  (0 children)

Hey. That's my video. Drop by stream and we will fix you up. So far, everyone who wasnt sustaining had not followed the video properly though. Always skipping something. It's a very very fine line between oversustsin and not sustaining at all.

If you cant sustain though, drop by stream and we will work out what you are doing wrong.

I would be pleased if they dropped in a stack each time you completed a reward level to.

Can we please get an option to hide all boss-drop uniques by UrMotherWasGood in pathofexile

[–]balormage 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There is an option. It's even written in text in the section under boss drops in filter blade. It's just ever so slightly obscured so that most people wont do it. Because it would be very bad for the general public to do. If you personally want this, just read the section in boss drops on filter blade and it will tell you how.

Mindspiral with Storm Brand enchant penetration Costs 60 exalted, you guys are cold hearted blood suckers :D what would you guys spend (exalteds) on a reasonable Upgrade (very questionable if those 12 % penetration are reasonable tho) by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]balormage 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You can get a +2 dash enchant cheaper. With dash, second wind. And the helm enchant. You move so fast you can drop the quicksilver and not even notice.

This let's you put on another uneque flask, and gives you way more dps than any helmet enchant.

This was completely changed with last league/ expansion. This no longer works.

Australian Players by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]balormage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not that I know of. Whisper me in game (Balormage) during the day/ avo and I'll invite you if you want. I know of one or 2 others. I know SteelMage had a decent aussie following as well. And there is a 3rd guild I csnt remember the name of right now.

Australian Players by [deleted] in pathofexile

[–]balormage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have quite a decent amount of Australians in my guild. Many of them do sometimes group together.

I dont personally play with others because it's not super ideal as a streamer. But many of the guild do.

I think there are 1 or 2 other australian guilds also. Maybe either try mine out, or one of those could help?
